"Father! Mother! Your vengeance has been avenged!"
Alan killed the Black Desert General, tears streaming down her face.
It was excitent, it was emotion, mixed with the pains of the past.
"From today onwards, I, Alan, vow to follow Your Majesty the Heavenly Emperor, pledge my loyalty, without ever reneging!"
After killing the Black Desert General, the second thing Alan did was to pledge allegiance to Ling Xiao.
She once made an oath before her parents' corpses that if anyone could help her seek revenge, she would be a slave for life, without regret.
"Your words are too heavy. Being a slave is not necessary, but under my command, I do need a fierce general like you. How about this, take charge of the remaining mbers of the Golden Eagle rcenary Group and directly obey Xie Li's orders, how does that sound?"
Ling Xiao didn't need so many slaves; soone like Alan could be more useful as a general than as a slave.
"I will do whatever my benefactor wishes."
"Good, Xie Li, how are the people on the Black Desert General's side?"
Ling Xiao asked.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, we have executed over fifty thousand, surrendered over a hundred thousand, currently under the command of my general Xie ng."
Xie Li replied.
"Good. I estimate that the Blood Relative Prince's army will arrive soon; this confrontation will be the best opportunity for these people to pledge their loyalty."
Ling Xiao certainly wouldn't kill them all; otherwise, he wouldn't be able to expand his army.
In his otherworldly mories, there was an army that grew from rely hundreds to millions, many of them coming from surrenders and equally formidable in battle.
He feels that such an approach is much better than pure slaughter.
After all, he's not the kind of person who enjoys killing; if not pushed to the limit, he wouldn't bother taking action.
"Your Majesty, listen to , the Blood Relative Prince commands hundreds of thousands, his strength is even more terrifying, and until the city strongholds are secured, it is not wise to oppose him."
Alan spoke: "Especially since the Blood Relative Prince has thirteen generals under his command, all possessing strength similar to the Black Desert General. He himself has even reached the Yin-Yang Realm. He's truly not soone to provoke lightly."
"Oh? The Blood Relative Prince is actually a Yin-Yang Realm Martial Artist, that is indeed intriguing."
After last night's cultivation, Ling Xiao's cultivation level had advanced to three-tenths Yin-Yang Elental Force of the Half-step Yin Yang Realm.
If the Blood Relative Prince's cultivation is only around the first level of Yin Yang Realm, he can still give it a try.
His current cultivation speed is still unsatisfactory to him; only the life-and-death confrontation can fully arouse his potential within.
He might even trigger the Sky Demon Battle Intent on this Black Desert and step into the Yin Yang Realm all at once.
Once he enters the Yin-Yang Realm, the gap between him and Fengming Qishan won't be so vast.
How could he give up such a golden opportunity?
"Alan, I understand your good intentions, but this ti I ca to the Black Crow Empire to annex this empire. While it may not be entirely successful, securing the Black Desert and Black Crow City is as good as getting a foothold, understand?"
Currently, I have no retreat; once pulled back, the Black Crow Empire might soon beco a vassal of the Phoenix God Empire."
Ling Xiao shook his head and said.
"Since Your Majesty says so, Alan is willing to be the vanguard!"
Alan gritted her teeth and said.
"No problem, Xie Li, gather the army, build fortifications, the Blood Relative Prince is expected to return soon. After all, this place is already very close to Black Crow City, and that Blood Relative Prince would certainly not tolerate sudden chaos behind him."
Ling Xiao commanded.
"Already working on it."
Xie Li replied.
"Very well, once the war begins, the command is still yours, just think of as non-existent. My target is only that Blood Relative Prince. The rest, you handle, okay?"
Ling Xiao asked with a smile.
He felt that his people were gradually growing up; he really didn't need to do everything himself anymore.
"No problem!"
Xie Li nodded confidently.
Then the army gathered.
The Black Desert General had over a hundred thousand under his command.
The Golden Eagle rcenary Group had over ten thousand under its command.
The Heavenly Dynasty Empire had over fifty thousand troops.
A total of one hundred and sixty thousand.
But this ti, facing the Blood Relative Prince's army, it was truly the Black Desert General's troops and the Golden Eagle rcenary Group's over one hundred and ten thousand who would charge into battle.
Ling Xiao hovered mid-air and spoke in a cold and domineering voice: "You may feel injustice, feel humiliated, but I tell you, fair treatnt is earned through blood and combat achievents!
If you want to obtain the sa rights and treatnt as my army, you can only show your bravery and loyalty on the battlefield.
When this war ends, those who survive will receive their due rewards and treatnt, with no distinction between high and low.
And now, whether you consider yourselves cannon fodder or heroes, you must charge at the front!
Anyone who dares to flee will not only die but will suffer Divine Soul Destruction, never to reincarnate.
Fight bravely, for wine and beauties await you. Your families will also receive the best care, and a prosperous future is within reach!
But betrayal leads only to death!
Your families will be implicated, becoming slaves and forever unable to hold their heads high!"
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
Only by making them utterly eliminate thoughts of betrayal and escape can they truly burn their boats and fight to the death.
Of course, Ling Xiao wouldn't let them be cannon fodder.
This war is but a test.
A test of loyalty and valor.
For those who genuinely fight risking their lives, he will do everything possible to protect them, ensuring they won't shed tears after shedding blood.
For the timid and deserters, as he said, they are not only unworthy of living, but they shall never reincarnate.
He has this ability.
In the army, roars echoed, earth-shaking in montum.
At this mont, these people fought not for Ling Xiao, but for themselves.
That is enough.
On the battlefield, courage matters more than whom they fight for.
The ti was the next morning.
After a night's rest, the army's spirit had almost recovered.
Ling Xiao gave them the best recovery elixir, although this also almost exhausted the pills in Ling Xiao's Storage Ring.
Yet this act made everyone believe in Ling Xiao's words; they were not being sent as cannon fodder, to die, but rather this battle was a test of their loyalty and courage.
In the distance, the ground started shaking.
Black sand danced in the air, murderous aura innate, causing everyone to be sowhat nervous and excited.
The Blood Relative Prince has arrived!
He's here for revenge!
The army didn't pause, the leading red-clothed man saw the target and imdiately commanded: "Kill! Leave none alive!"
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
The Blood Relative Prince's army, equally high in morale, sought to gain rits by slaying traitors.
While the Heavenly Dynasty Empire's side, Xie Li also waved the battle flag, giving the order: "Kill! When brave warriors et in a narrow path, the victor prevails. Their numbers aren't vastly greater than ours; for your future, fight desperately!"
