"Puchi!" With a thrust,
Gong Yu’s Longsword penetrated Xue Dong’s chest.
"Ah!"
Xue Dong scread in agony, his eyes wide open in disbelief as he looked at Gong Yu, filled with helplessness and shock. He couldn’t believe that soone with an Interdiate Enhanced Gene could defeat him—a warrior at the Advanced Peak of Enhanced Gene.
From beginning to end, he couldn’t comprehend the Martial Arts Gong Yu used against him, only catching a glimpse of Gong Yu’s Beast Soul at the very end, which did not seem particularly powerful.
Gong Yu’s single sword thrust killed Xue Dong, leaving the entire scene in astonishnt.
Yang Xiao flashed and rushed dozens of ters away, after a few leaps, he reached Gong Yu’s side, grabbing his hand and carrying Gong Yu as he sprinted towards his own camp.
Both sides were montarily stunned.
Then Xue Dong’s subordinates ca to their senses, and Zhong Cailing scread out,
"Brother Dong!"
"Brothers, avenge Brother Dong, charge, and kill them all!"
Xue Dong had been good to his n, especially the higher-level experts, treating them with care. Now with him being killed right before their eyes, his followers were furiously incensed. With their nurical advantage, they rushed forward with a cry, like a tidal wave swamping over.
Yang Xiao tossed Gong Yu to Xiao Lan, then loudly commanded:
"Everyone on defense, archers shoot, Flying People Team shoot, Elental Mages attack."
These three types of troops were adept at long-range attack, especially the archers now ard with Hard Bows, capable of firing to a range of about 200 ters.
The Flying People’s Feathered Arrows typically had a range of over 100 ters, and Elental Mages had a general attack range of more than 30 ters, with stronger experts having Enhanced Genes reaching from 40 to 50 ters.
The three types of troops could form a long, dium, and short-range attack formation.
Moreover, warriors from the Plant Soul System could form thorny barricades within 20 ters, creating a barrier strip to hold off the enemy. Further in were the Close Combat Beast Soul Warriors, ready as the last line of defense.
Zhong Cailing transford into a Giant Bird, taking to the skies with hundreds of other birds, flying forward.
The ground troops, led by several Advanced Enhanced Gene warriors, charged forward.
Yang Xiao’s archers began releasing arrows, with a sky full of Flying Arrows whizzing towards the enemy.
Those in the vanguard imdiately activated Light Shields above their heads; although the arrows had great range, they were not exceptionally powerful, especially against those with Interdiate Primordial Gene or higher who could easily block them with Defensive Light Shields.
The enemy archers also waited beneath the cover of the Light Shields, waiting to shoot their own Flying Arrows. Both sides had roughly the sa number of archers, evenly matched in strength, with one side on the offensive and the other on defense. Yang Xiao’s side held a slight advantage in ranged attacks.
The ground troops kept pushing forward under the Arrow Rain, while in the sky, Zhong Cailing led the surging Flying People Team towards Yang Xiao’s current position of only five hundred Flying People, giving her a boost of confidence.
"Sisters, let’s break through and avenge Brother Dong!"
Zhong Cailing took the lead, spreading her wings to fly ahead.
Suddenly, with a boom, a colossal hand claw materialized in the sky, enveloping Zhong Cailing and a dozen other Flying People within its grasp.
Yang Xiao sneered coldly, clenched the hand claw, and with several piercing shrieks, Zhong Cailing and the Flying People were literally crushed to death by Yang Xiao.
This move by Yang Xiao terrified the remaining Flying People, stopping them in their tracks, none had ever seen such a fearso Soul Skill before, especially with the death of Zhong Cailing, their Great Captain, leaving the team sowhat headless.
At this mont, the ground troops had also reached about a hundred ters away from Yang Xiao and his n.
Yang Xiao’s ground archers and the Flying People Team in the air launched their Elental Arrows together, showering their opponents like raindrops.
Yang Xiao let out a loud shout, unleashing the Soul Skill Sweeping Void against the charging crowd.
Boom!
With a thunderous roar, a hundred-ter-long Giant Beast’s tail whipped through the air, sweeping towards the group in front.
That montum was absolutely suffocating and despairing to those witnessing Yang Xiao’s Soul Skill for the first ti.
So warriors with at least Interdiate Enhanced Genes quickly took to the skies to avoid Yang Xiao’s Soul Skill, but the rest were not so fortunate or lucky.
With a ground-shaking blast, the sweep sent over a hundred people flying into the air, limbs scattering, the scene was extrely grueso.
Yang Xiao, spurred on by vigor, released the Black Hole Swallowing Soul Skill.
Before the crowd could recover from their shock, they saw a giant Monster’s head appear mid-air, followed by the ergence of a massive black hole vortex on the ground. Over a hundred people, caught off guard, were sucked into the black hole.
Yang Xiao changed hand gestures, the Monster’s head closed and chewed furiously a few tis, grinding those hundred people to death, then threw them down from the sky.
Five Finger Sky Explosion, Sweeping Void, Black Hole Swallowing,
Three consecutive, extrely terrifying Soul Skills were displayed, causing the subordinates of Xue Dong to be overwhelmingly shocked.
At the sa ti, five hundred archers and five hundred mbers of the Flying People Team in Yang Xiao’s defensive team released a rain of arrows, forcing the front-line warriors to resort to using Light Shields to protect themselves, leaving them no chance to strike back.
Coupled with the respective deaths of Xue Dong and Zhong Cailing, Yang Xiao’s side surged in morale, while Xue Dong’s troops were imdiately suppressed.
Boom, boom, boom,,,
Yang Xiao continued to unleash the Soul Skill One Finger Splitting Earth at the advancing troops, causing giant spikes to erupt from the ground, each ti sending dozens of people flying and creating huge pits on the terrain.
After several repetitions, the morale of Xue Dong’s side plumted drastically.
They couldn’t fathom how Yang Xiao possessed such terrifying Soul Skills. The power disparity made them feel completely outclassed; why charge forward only to be subject to abuse?
Yang Xiao’s side, on defense, took full advantage, with just the archer and Flying People Team firing relentlessly, they managed to kill two to three hundred of the enemy, while the enemy’s Flying People Team still hesitated to advance beyond a hundred ters.
A bird without a head is aimless, indeed!
Without their leader in the air and on the ground, they had already lost the morale battle. After being intercepted by Yang Xiao’s terrifying Soul Skills for a while, the intense desire for revenge in response to their leader’s death gradually faded.
In the face of death, everyone gradually ca to their senses. After all, life was more important, especially since Xue Dong was already dead. Even if they fought desperately for him, Xue Dong would never witness their sacrifices and efforts.
When on a narrow path, the brave will prevail, especially when faced with an opponent as strong as Yang Xiao.
Once their psychological defenses collapsed, they lost all will to advance and attack.
The leading dozen or so warriors with Enhanced Genes hesitated, using Light Shields to protect themselves, no longer pressing forward.
Soone shouted loudly:
"Brothers, let’s retreat for now, regroup and co back with more brothers to avenge Brother Dong."
"Yeah, that Yang Xiao is too monstrous; what kind of Soul Skills are those? They’re not even on the sa level, forcing an attack is just suicide."
"The enemy’s numbers are similar to ours, but they have the advantage in defense. Blindly charging in isn’t working; let’s retreat to Xiangfan City first and then figure out how to deal with them."
"Right, I think that’s the only option now."
