The First Clash
"Your Human Emperor, there are actually seven or eight leaders this time, but there are two most important leaders. One is the Eastern Evil King, and the other is the King Yueji."
"Among them, the Eastern Evil King is said to possess immense strength. He has the bloodline of an ancient Great Witch, making him virtually invulnerable to weapons and blades, reaching the level of an ancient Great Witch."
"The other King Yueji is said to be a brave and resourceful person. She not only understands astrology but also feng shui and can perform some unorthodox divination. Your Majesty must not be careless."
Upon hearing this, Ye Xuan couldn't help but think of the woman he had encountered a few days ago.
It must be said that woman was indeed quite outstanding.
"Can a woman also be a queen?"
"Your Human Emperor, the Eastern Yi Clan are an extremely large tribe, with one to two hundred tribes of varying sizes, and some rumors even suggest there are more than three hundred."
"Some tribes are male-dominated, but some tribes are still matrilineal societies, where women hold a very high status. The most prominent example of this is the tribe of King Yueji."
Hearing this, Ye Xuan nodded.
Just as Ye Xuan was about to discuss the next steps with everyone, he suddenly heard an unprecedented bugle call.
Waaaaah----------
Compared to the horns of the Yin and Yin Shang, this horn sound lacked a majestic and powerful quality, but it possessed a more resonant and uplifting feel.
Everyone present paled in shock.
"Damn it, are the Eastern Yi Clan preparing for a sneak attack? Are they planning to besiege the city?"
Everyone's expression was rather grim. The Eastern Yi Clan was not particularly skilled at siege warfare, but their sudden call to attack was indeed puzzling.
The group quickly climbed to the top of the city wall to observe, and saw dust billowing in the distance, revealing a dark mass of people, giving the impression of an impending storm.
Ye Xuan could also see clearly that the mountains and plains were full of wild beasts, tigers, lions, bison, bears and all sorts of animals, and warriors were sitting on each of these beasts.
It must be said that the Eastern Yi people were indeed fearless and ruthless, and each of them exuded the aura of a wild beast.
If they were to start fighting, they would probably turn into incredibly ferocious beasts, wouldn't they?
The Eastern Yi Clan cavalry, covering the mountains and plains, halted their charge when they arrived at the city.
"You dog emperor of Yin Shang, we know you've arrived! Why don't you quickly surrender?"
"Perhaps we can still leave you with a whole corpse, otherwise, once our Eastern Yi warriors breach the city, we will surely use your head as a chamber pot."
At the very front of the Eastern Cavalry appeared a terrifying man riding a rhinoceros. This man was over two meters tall and dressed in a terrifying animal skin.
He looked to be in his thirties or forties, wearing a crown made of various feathers, and was roaring fiercely at the very front of the procession.
This man is the leader, the Eastern Evil King, whom the garrison commander had mentioned.
Ye Xuan couldn't help but chuckle as he looked at this guy.
Judging from this person's appearance—a gap-mouthed, fanged face—he does indeed bear a striking resemblance to the image of the Witch Clan.
His height of two or three meters really makes him resemble Great Witch of the Witch Clan.
They truly live up to the reputation of the Wu Human Clan.
This person stood in front of the city and shouted loudly.
This immediately angered Huang Feihu, the Martial King Cheng Who Protects the Nation.
"Presumptuous!"
"You lowly people from the borderlands, how dare you defy the imperial majesty? You truly have no regard for death! Huang Feihu will deal with you!"
This barbarian dares to offend His Human Emperor; he is utterly courting death.
Even the Saint in the heavens must be cautious before His Majesty the Human Emperor, yet these barbarian people on the frontier are so presumptuous?
But I was really courting death.
The city gates opened, and a burly general, clad in golden armor and Gold-Gripped Incense Burner Spear, rode out on Five-Colored Divine Ox.
It was Huang Feihu.
"I am Huang Feihu, the Martial King Cheng Who Protects the Nation! Come out and face your death!"
Upon hearing this, the Eastern Evil King burst into laughter.
"Who do we have here? It's you!"
"You're nothing but a lackey of the Human Emperor; what right do you have to fight me?"
"Which brave warrior has slain this man? I, the king, will reward him with three thousand cattle and sheep, and ten women from the Yin Shang dynasty."
The words were met with another gasp of surprise.
Soon, a fierce general emerged from the tribe. It is said that this person possessed immense strength and was able to fight dragons with his bare hands, making him an extremely terrifying existence.
The man, dressed in a tiger skin and wielding a pair of large iron hammers, rode a massive brown bear and charged menacingly toward Huang Feihu.
Huang Feihu naturally went to greet him as well.
Upon seeing each other, both men stumbled back several steps, Huang Feihu taking a surprise.
His cultivation level has been elevated by His Majesty the Human Emperor, and he has now reached the realm of Primordial Unity Golden Immortal. Ordinary people are obviously no match for him, yet this person is able to contend with him in strength, clearly indicating that he is also a powerful individual.
Huang Feihu noticed the other party's surprised look and couldn't help but let out a cold smile.
He immediately rode the Five-Colored Divine Ox and charged forward once again.
Huang Feihu did not use his magical powers, but instead fought his opponent using force.
The two extraordinary individuals wielded powerful and unrestrained attacks, their combined strength capable of overcoming all obstacles, while the other's spear moved like a dragon, displaying exquisite and refined techniques.
In the blink of an eye, they had fought dozens of rounds.
After several dozen moves, the warrior was no longer able to defend himself. Knowing he was no match for the opponent, he feinted and tried to escape.
How could Huang Feihu let him escape so easily?
One shot pierced him, leaving a gaping hole; the guy fell to the ground, clearly not going to survive.
He was a member of the Wu Human Clan, possessing extremely strong physical strength, yet Huang Feihu still managed to pierce a hole in him, demonstrating that Huang Feihu's strength was far beyond that of ordinary people.
"Damn it!!!"
Seeing his general die, the Eastern Evil King was furious.
"Attack the city!"
In just one encounter, he lost a fierce general, and in his anger, he immediately ordered an attack on the city.
However, the Eastern Yi Clan were not good at siege warfare. Although they possessed siege ladders and large catapults, they were clearly of little use against the formidable Jiaozhou City.
However, the next moment, dust suddenly billowed up from both sides of Jiaozhou City, and a torrent of steel appeared in their sight from both sides of Jiaozhou City. The next moment, the whole earth began to tremble.
Two torrents of steel surged forth with overwhelming force, seemingly capable of destroying the heavens and the earth. The Eastern Yi Clan soldiers were immediately taken aback. They had never seen such a ferocious cavalry before. Compared to this cavalry, they were nothing more than a rabble.
