344 The Seventy-Two Chapters of the Royal City

At this moment, in this situation, there was tension, unease, and a sliver of pride: 'We now have such a strong army! Long live the Lord! May our soldiers return safe and sound!'

Their eyes were filled with anticipation, anticipation; only the return of victory was their sole hope at that moment.

They discussed in hushed tones, some voices filled with worry, "Old man, are you alright this time? You just killed a demon yesterday, it's truly thanks to the Lord's blessing."

Tonight, something unknown will come again. May the Lord protect us and bring us back safely.

"Don't worry about it. With your great abilities, you'll naturally be able to return safely. It's all thanks to your protection; otherwise, we would probably have become food for the monsters."

I've heard that this monster eats people whole, which must be incredibly painful.

May the adult return safely.

May our soldiers return safely.

Looking at her sleeping youngest child and listening to the surrounding chatter, the young wife was filled with worry. Holding her baby close, she whispered hopefully, "My husband, please come home safely. We are all waiting for you."

News of the war spread quickly, and everyone silently prayed for the safe return of their comrade.

The moment the battle formation activated, a resolute and chilling atmosphere filled the air. Their minds were in perfect harmony, their gazes blazing, as if they wanted to incinerate the two man-eating beasts. With their combined strength, their steps were perfectly synchronized, like an impregnable iron wall.

Charge! Charge!

The army of five hundred soldiers, with their formidable power, charged towards the eerie girl like a raging storm. Their thunderous attack, with the force to shake mountains and rivers, swept in, raising clouds of dust.

"Young Master, be careful, let me handle this." The old man behind him looked surprised and a little grave. "Which powerful army is in disguise? They're so despicable, pretending to be weak. Is someone trying to assassinate the Young Master?"

He flashed forward and appeared before the girl, cursing, "Which army are you from? My young master is the Tiger Emperor! Get out of my way!"

Otherwise, you will be provoking our Demon Emperor, and you will be sinners against humanity.

An immense pressure, imposing and dignified without being angry, surged forth. It was from a demon king, and it seemed to have been gathering strength for a long time. The powerful pressure emanating from the demon king made it difficult for those around to breathe.

Moreover, being old and shrewd, he used intimidation and threats to try and break down the morale of the troops in front of him. Then he would see what kind of army they were, and if they weren't strong enough, he would just eat them up.

Such abundant Qi and blood are truly a great tonic.

Yun Baiyi remained silent, thinking to himself, 'We are not a powerful force; if we were, it would be the son-in-law's backing.'

There was no answer, only a simple, "Kill."

His tone was resolute and decisive, as were his actions. He took a step forward, and the protective aura of the formation remained, with the soldiers behind him closely following Yun Baiyi's steps.

I felt as if I had transformed into an unstoppable torrent. My body was filled with power and energy, as if I could destroy all obstacles.

His imposing aura was like a tiger descending a mountain, incredibly powerful. In no way inferior to the old man opposite him, his movements became exceptionally agile, and his speed increased dramatically. At this moment, Bai's figure was like a bolt of lightning.

My body felt as if it were protected by an invisible shield, becoming incredibly strong!

The immense power felt like it could shatter a mountain. The broadsword was raised high above the head and slashed down at the old man, like a blacksmith swinging a hammer, smashing it down heavily.

The 'ding' sound kept going on and on.

The old man, equally proud and unyielding, swung his staff and began to clash, the clanging sounds echoing throughout the room.

Dust filled the sky, the surrounding vegetation turned to ashes, and the ground was riddled with craters.

Both were stunned, their bodies going numb. Their clash was devoid of any fancy moves; the force surged into each other's bodies like a violent storm. They both endured excruciating pain and astonishment.

The more the fighting went on, the more Yun Baiyi felt he was gradually adapting to the old man's power. With the combined efforts of the many soldiers, they strengthened themselves and dispersed the old man's attack power when attacked.

In less than the time it takes to drink half a cup of tea, the two had exchanged hundreds of blows, their hearts locked in a fierce battle, a feeling of heroes meeting heroes, of worthy opponents. Yun Baiyi was truly enjoying himself immensely, fighting with unbridled passion.

He made the most of his offensive and defensive skills.

At this moment, he was no longer fighting alone, but an entire army.

The old man grew increasingly alarmed as he fought. He was a demon beast, a tiger, an incredibly strong tiger. Apart from the Demon Emperor, who in his clan could compare to him? Time waits for no man.

'Am I really getting old?' The old man felt a strange sadness and his mind wavered. In that instant, Yun Baiyi noticed and moved with agility, like a white eagle spreading its wings. His leap was full of violent power and speed, and he slashed his broadsword horizontally at the old man's arm.

In that moment of distraction, a slash was so fast that there was no time to react. Instinctively, he tried to retreat, but the slash cut through his arm, blood gushing out, and the Qimen staff fell to the ground instantly.

His face turned pale, he let out a loud groan, and withdrew. He had actually lost an arm, which was a big problem. He had many opponents. Whether he was thinking something or just furious, blood gushed from his mouth.

His eyes lost all their sharpness, filled with terror and pain. After another muffled groan, he growled, "How dare you injure me! Do you know who I am? I am the Great Elder of the Tiger Clan! How dare you hurt me!"

If you become our enemy, countless people in this vast human race will suffer the loss of their families and lives because of you. Why don't you commit suicide to atone for your sins?

If you dare kill me, you will be a sinner against the entire human race, and this entire city will be devoured by our tiger clan. You'd better retreat at the last minute!

His trembling body made him incoherent, still in shock. He didn't know how long ago he had experienced the taste of impending death, or how long it had been since he had felt this way. He felt so frustrated, realizing that life and death were beyond his control.

I should have checked the auspicious date before leaving home. The bleeding from my severed hand has stopped now. I need to hurry back and seek out a miraculous medicine. Perhaps there is still a chance to reattach my arm.

Thinking of this, he realized that the name of the Tiger Demon Emperor would surely intimidate these soldiers and prevent them from killing him. He needed to leave as soon as possible.

He whispered to the young master beside him, "Young master, let's leave quickly. This army must be a powerful force, and the power behind them must be considerable. It's not worth the trouble now."

"Once we return, we can report to the Demon Emperor and then seek revenge."

At this moment, the young master's beautiful appearance was indeed gone; instead, her cunning and scheming eyes looked at Yun Baiyi and chuckled softly.

'General, you are so mighty, would you be my servant? I really can't bear to eat you.'
