The person he was waiting for finally arrived.

This long wait was pure torture for him.

He was constantly tormented by tension and fear; once he completed this task, he could enjoy wealth and luxury forever.

The men and horses outside arrived silently, and in no time they reached the city walls.

Wang Qiang carefully observed the troops below the city. Although they outnumbered the enemy, they made no sound.

Even the horses' hooves were wrapped in coarse cloth.

They also tied the horse's mouth shut with rope.

The fact that such a large force was able to appear silently outside Chaoge City shows that these people had indeed been preparing for a long time.

"Meow------Meow meow meow-------Meow meow---------"

A very rhythmic meow rang out softly in the dim night.

The sound wasn't loud, but in the quiet night, it still seemed somewhat abrupt.

Now that these people have come out, things are much easier.

He glanced at the drowsy soldiers around him, then quietly descended the city wall without disturbing anyone.

Opening the city gates was a task he couldn't delegate to others; he had to do it himself.

However, just as he was about to open the city gate, he suddenly sensed a bloody smell.

As a soldier, he naturally understood that this was a kind of murderous intent, which made him suddenly change his expression and turn around abruptly.

A huge figure appeared behind them.

It was Huang Feihu riding the Five-Colored Divine Ox.

Why is Huang Feihu, the Martial King Cheng Who Protects the Nation, here?

He was trembling with fear.

He understood that things had been exposed.

The fact that Huang Feihu has appeared in the city means that his death is imminent.

Huang Feihu glanced at him disdainfully and merely pointed a finger at him from afar.

A tremendous force pierced his heart, and he was beyond dead.

"Pah, you traitorous bastard."

Huang Feihu continued cursing.

More than a dozen powerful figures appeared around him.

Each and every one of them is an incredibly powerful being.

Several of them were women.

These are seven of the Twelve Zodiac Animals formed by Ye Xuan.

The Tongtian Kui Ox and the Jin Dasheng.

The Netherworld Hound Dai Li.

Zhu Zizhen, the Heaven-Swallowing Pig.

Blackwater Mystic Serpent Chang Hao.

Yang Xian, the White Jade Mystic Ram.

Nine-Headed Pheasant Spirit Yingzhi. (Sanqi)

The White-Faced Divine Monkey Zhenzhen.

Besides these seven, there are several other powerful individuals.

For example, General Heng Zheng Lun, whom Ye Xuan values highly, and Wang Yong, whose strength has recently improved by leaps and bounds, etc.

A dozen or so powerful figures stepped forward, looking at the man lying dead on the ground, and couldn't help but show disdain.

"Wait here, I'll go open the door!"

General Heng a thud, Zheng Lun stepped forward and ripped the incredibly thick bolt off the door.

The bolt was incredibly thick, like a pillar reaching to the heavens, yet it was torn off just like that.

Seeing this, Huang Feihu General Heng Zheng Lun in the buttocks.

What are you doing?

"Can't you just open the door properly?"

"Isn't the door bolt worth money? How can you waste it like this?"

General Heng, Zheng Lun rolled his eyes, chuckled, and said nothing.

He then pushed the car door open a crack.

Soon, sounds could be heard coming from outside.

"General Wang, I asked you to open the door, and you're taking so long? You're utterly useless!"

The people inside didn't speak; the General Wang they were talking about was already dead.

The city gates were quickly and completely opened by the people outside.

Then, numerous troops filed in, but without making a sound.

In a short time, several hundred people had poured in.

Zi Qi Zi Yan, who were at the forefront, had already entered Chaoge.

The two of them immediately showed great excitement after entering.

They both grew up in Chaoge, but they never expected that they would return to Chaoge several years later.

This naturally filled the two with intense hatred, and they felt compelled to rush to the capital and kill that damned fellow immediately.

Only by killing that guy can we, with the help of both inside and outside forces, completely take over Chaoge.

Just as the two were getting excited, they suddenly noticed a dozen or so people standing quietly in the corner.

Upon closer inspection, his expression changed drastically.

Who did they see?

I actually saw Martial King Cheng Who Protects the Nation?

Could it be that this guy was the one who opened the city gate?

Wasn't this guy leading troops in what he called a military exercise outside the city?

How did we end up back in Chaoge City?

The two exchanged bewildered glances, clearly terrified. Had their scheme been exposed?

However, there were only a dozen or so figures Chaoge City.

The two of them finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Do you really think you can stop them from entering Chaoge City with just a dozen or so people?

That's just wishful thinking.

However, in the next instant, countless elite soldiers emerged from the streets, rooftops, pavilions, and city walls of Chaoge City.

Every soldier was extremely well-equipped.

The thousands of people who poured into the city were instantly surrounded.

"How so?"

Why is this happening?

"We only decided to raise an army on short notice, so why did Chaoge receive the news in advance?"

A tremendous shock was felt in the hearts of Zi Qi and Zi Yan.

His face also turned extremely pale.

To be honest, they had been secretly planning for a long time before they finally succeeded in infiltrating Chaoge.

To their utter surprise, Chaoge had completely disregarded them and had even laid an ambush beforehand. Wasn't this like catching a turtle in a jar?

Did they become sitting ducks?

At the same time, the sound of an extremely fierce charge rang out outside.

Zi Qi and Zi Yan suddenly turned around.

Through the city gate, they discovered a torrent of steel appearing at the edge of the world.

Leading the group was none other than the War Elephant Cavalry Primordial World the entire world.

So the other side really did get the news?

And they've already laid a trap, just waiting for them to walk right into it?

It's really laughable when you think about it.

So they were a joke all along?

Extremely unwilling, the two unleashed a furious roar.

"Enter the city! Enter the city as quickly as possible!"

"Let's go into the city and capture that damned tyrant!"

Zi Qi and Zi Yan roared furiously.

Even if it meant death, the two would fight to the death.

It would obviously take a long time for an army of 300,000 to enter the city.

However, with their forces surrounded in front and pursued from behind, they had no choice but to enter the city.

However, the soldiers in the city were all extremely elite infantry and archers.

The infantry, armed with long-handled swords and horizontal swords, blocked the street, unmatched by ten thousand men.

The city walls and rooftops were manned by incredibly elite archers.

After a brief exchange of blows, they quickly realized just how foolish their move had been.

Everyone who entered the city perished without a trace.

Meanwhile, chaos had broken out among the soldiers outside the city.

Upon contact with the enemy soldiers, they were instantly slaughtered, their numbers dwindling.

Neither of them had expected the difference in combat strength to be so vast; it was practically a one-sided massacre.

The two gritted their teeth.

"Brothers, that's why I'm marching on the palace, determined to kill that tyrannical emperor in this one battle."

Zi Qi and Zi Yan roared madly.

Faced with this desperate situation, the soldiers behind him began to roar.

The two of them rushed forward together.

If we could kill that tyrannical ruler, perhaps there would still be a glimmer of hope.

Seeing these people's actions, all the powerful figures present showed expressions of disdain.

These people are truly ignorant and narrow-minded.

His Human Emperor the Emperor is a man of great talent and ambition; how could such petty individuals possibly threaten him?

They're brothers born of the same mother, so why is there such a big difference between them?

There's no need for these generals to take action; ordinary troops alone would be enough to bring down the enemy in droves.

The overwhelming and devastating scene instantly stunned Zi Qi and Zi Yan.

In particular, the arrows, like a swarm of locusts, covered the soldiers pouring into the city from all directions, instantly engulfing them.

The soldiers outside were utterly routed, running around like headless flies.

These Boy Scouts were no match for the battle-hardened elite warriors.
