Chapter 661: Borrowing Soldiers from Elsewhere
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Li De was feeling extremely regretful of his choices when the fluxers protecting the city reported an unfortunate news to him.
“Vampires have fallen!”
Upon hearing their words, Li De felt as if a bomb had exploded in his head. All because of his mistake, vampires had fallen. Not only that, but Lucky Wind City was also thrown into a grave crisis.
He held his head, not daring to believe it. The grand Lucky Wind City was on the verge of collapse because of a lapse in his judgment.
The news of the vampires being annihilated was a great psychological blow to him. Once the vampires swore a sacred oath, they and Lucky Wind City became like feathers of the same bird. So who could have anticipated that all of a sudden the vampires would be annihilated?
Looking at the head of their leader, Li De hated that he was unable to rush out and chop the Frontline God into different parts.
“Don’t be impulsive! General…”
Li De was sobbing spasmodically. If it were not for the people obstructing his path, he would have rushed out a long time ago. But the aftermath of that was too horrible to imagine.
He was Li Yunmu’s shadow, so if he sacrificed his life, it would be the greatest disrespect to Li Yunmu. It might also influence Lin Yuerou’s position in Li Yunmu’s heart.
Li De didn’t know whether Lin Yuerou was quickly rushing toward Lucky Wind City. But if he allowed her to see the miserable state of the city, she would probably cough blood.
Yet the vampires had been annihilated, and at the gate of the city, the fluxers of Frontline God and Divine Religion were rampaging.
They had superiority in numbers and power, so they would naturally continue pressing on.
But Lucky Wind City wasn’t watching idly either. Countless fluxers and supreme transcending level experts were dispatched to stop the enemy. Despite their losses were a lot heavier, their opposition didn’t proceed unscathed either.
Although Li De was completely devoted and loyal to Li Yunmu, he wasn’t meant to be a general. He could not achieve effortless victory like Lin Yuerou nor could he use strategies like her.
He could only send out people to obstruct the people of Divine Religion and Frontline Heavens.
But the more they attacked like that, the easier it was for them to fall into a passive state. After all, their losses were becoming heavier and heavier.
If Li Yunmu saw the state to which Lucky Wind City had been pushed, he would feel extremely pained.
Who could say how much blood and sweat he had invested in the supreme transcending level experts of Lucky Wind City?
Yet after such an enormous crisis, the price required to return to the previous state was hard to imagine.
…..
Just as Lin Yuerou returned to Lucky Wind City, she discovered that the entire city was surrounded by experts from other powers. Instantly, her complexion changed and she quickly stopped the supreme transcending level experts behind her. They all quickly concealed themselves in a hidden region.
The supreme transcending level experts looked at Lin Yuerou suspiciously and asked, “City lord, what’s the matter? Why aren’t we returning?”
“Lucky Wind City is in a crisis! If we return now, we would just be courting death.”
“What do you mean?”
Lin Yuerou took a deep breath and stated, “We need to leave and borrow soldiers from the four saints! If we return without an army, we would only send ourselves to an early death.”
The supreme transcending level experts nodded, and one of them said, “The matters of the other territory are under the control of General Li Tian!”
Lin Yuerou calmly nodded. “Li Feng and Li Yun still haven’t returned. I sent them to keep a watch on Frontline Heavens and Divine Religion, but it seems like they encountered some difficulty. The people at the city’s gate are probably from Frontline Heavens and Divine Religion.”
“How do you know?”
“There has been no news from Li Yun and Li Feng, and we also haven’t heard of them returning to Lucky Wind City. But their safety doesn’t matter. They are both Li Yunmu’s shadows so they won’t be in any life threatening crisis. We must focus on finding Li Tian and borrowing soldiers from the four saints!”
It was the first time that Lucky Wind City faced such a crisis. When Lin Yuerou arrived at the destination, Li Tian was somewhat overwhelmed by the favor from his superior, believing that Lin Yuerou had hurried over with people to see him.
Who knew that the first sentence out of her mouth would be, “I have come to ask for manpower! Lucky Wind City has encountered an enormous crisis.”
“Crisis? Impossible! Isn’t second eldest defending Lucky Wind City? How could any accident occur?”
“We have personally confirmed it. There’s no mistake!” said one of the supreme transcending level experts behind Lin Yuerou.
After hearing the words of the supreme transcending level expert, Li Tian was stunned. Lucky Wind City was the place where their master had decided to build his foundation. If it was lost, they would become homeless and destitute, and their quest to become the hegemons of Earth would also lose all meaning.
Li Tian led Lin Yuerou to find the four saints, but those guys surprisingly forgot their promises and turned their backs on Lin Yuerou. After hearing that Lucky Wind City had fallen into a crisis, all of them evaded responsibility by avoiding to meet Lin Yuerou!
“You all! You forgot about the kindness shown by the city lord before? Now that Lucky Wind City is facing a disaster, you actually choose to abandon your benefactor?”
Lin Yuerou took a deep breath and said, “Nevermind! We cannot hope that everyone will be loyal to their allies like us.”
She turned around and walked away while saying, “Li Tian return with us! There is no more meaning in you protecting this place. The four saints have already broken away from our control!”
Li Tian was somewhat unwilling and greatly desired to ferret out the four saints and beat them up. But doing that was meaningless.
As Lin Yuerou had said, their main priority right then was to assist Lucky Wind City in eliminating the crisis.
When they returned to the vicinity of Lucky Wind City and saw the countless fluxers surrounding it, Li Tian’s heart sank. If the current situation continued to progress, Lucky Wind City would be truly defeated.
Lin Yuerou led the few supreme transcending level experts to the base of vampires, but to their surprise, they couldn’t find a single person there.
Could it be that they had ran away?
Lin Yuerou clenched her teeth. Even if she knew strategy and war tactics, without any soldiers or army, she would just be courting death by herself. One cannot make bricks without straw, so how could she fight a war without an army?
Lin Yuerou took a deep breath. “Lucky Wind City is in trouble. We have no one to rely upon except ourselves.
“Unfortunately, with the few people we have, trying to get past the enemy at the gate of the city would be nothing more than taking quick road to our deaths.”
The supreme transcending level experts dispatched by Lin Yuerou returned at that instant and shared the information they had obtained.
