Zither Emperor Chapter 988 Chapter 315 The Purge Operation Part 3

988: Chapter 315: The Purge Operation (Part 3) 988: Chapter 315: The Purge Operation (Part 3) Two years ago, Faran personally sought out the Dragon Clan, requesting their cooperation in this holy war.

Although Howard was reluctant at heart, the one who stepped forward was the Tower Master Aubrey, the leader of Faran’s tower masters.

The Dragon Clan had already bee enemies with Qin City, and Howard knew that if he refused Faran at this juncture, it would effectively isolate the entire Dragon Clan.

Not only would the Dragon Clan’s status on the Ryuzakinus Continent be substantially diminished, but they might also suffer joint retaliation from both Faran and Qin City.

Aubrey assured Howard that as long as the Dragon Clan fully mitted to this holy war, Qin City would no longer seek revenge against them and also guaranteed the Dragon Clan’s transcendent status on the continent.

After careful consideration, Howard could only agree to Aubrey’s suggestion.

The extent of the Dragon Clan’s strength could not be clearer to Faran, and Howard dared not conceal it.

This time, he brought all five hundred of the Dragon Clan’s adult Giant Dragons to participate in the battle.

He had thought that his status would secure him a quite favorable position.

However, before the war began, when Faran announced the names of the mander and deputy manders, Howard’s name was nowhere to be seen.

The Allied mander was the Zither Emperor, Ye Yinzhu, with the deputy manders in the following order: First Deputy mander, Marshal Xi Duofu of the Milan Empire; Second Deputy mander, Landias Empire Minister of Military Affairs, Krespo; Third Deputy mander, Beast Emperor Zi; Fourth Deputy mander, Marshal Crespo of the Landias Empire; Fifth Deputy mander, Marshal Olivera of the Milan Empire.

The six tower masters of Faran assumed mand of the Mage Division, each directing mages of their respective elements.

Ye Yinzhu’s darkness attribute was co-manded by the Soul Tower Master, MacMillan.

Upon receiving this news, Howard was already in a foul mood, but considering the Dragon Clan’s current strength pared to Faran and Qin City, he really had nothing to say.

However, he kept wondering whether Ye Yinzhu truly was some foreign Divine Dragon.

Why would the bones of the Dragon Clan ancestors suddenly awaken and join Qin City?

Yet, he could find no favorable evidence and was unable to question anything.

At this moment, in the army that Ye Yinzhu had announced would enter the Abyssal Plane, the Dragon Clan had not been mentioned until now, and Howard could no longer hold back.

If the Legion of Behemoth Beasts, that was at the front, truly had greater strength than his own, and the Grim Reaper Dragon Wolf Cavalry and Zither Emperor’s Aircraft Carrier Battle Group were also stronger than the Dragon Clan—

Then what about the Elf Tribe and those human craftsmen?

Were their bat capabilities also stronger than our Dragon Clan?

Howard could not help but stand up and express his doubt to Ye Yinzhu.

A faint glow flickered.

A trace of overbearing energy emanated from Ye Yinzhu’s eyes as he clasped his hands in front of his chest, and a slight flicker shone in his eyes, “Clan Leader Howard, you and your Dragon Clan are now part of the Allied forces; please ply with all directives.

I am the Marshal in mand of this operation.

I will naturally call upon the Dragon Clan to enter the Abyssal Plane when necessary.

My current arrangements are not based on strength, but on need.”

“You…, Ye Yinzhu, this is personal vendetta,” Howard glared at Ye Yinzhu with fire in his eyes.

Once upon a time, he remembered the first time he saw Ye Yinzhu, this human was nothing more than a tiny reptile in his eyes.

But now, he had bee so powerful that even the pressure emanating from him could suppress Howard.

That sense of disparity was something he could not bear.

Ye Yinzhu spoke sternly, “Clan Leader Howard, maintain your decorum and return to your own troops.

Otherwise, military law is ruthless.”

Howard laughed bitterly out of extreme anger, “Fine, fine, fine.

Ye Yinzhu, remember this.

After this war ends, whether you capture my kin or slaughter them and those ancestral bones of our Dragon Clan, I will demand an explanation from you.”

Ye Yinzhu gave him a cold glance, his reply consisted of only four simple words, “I await your pleasure.”

If he had any reservations about the Dragon Clan before, by now, the much-weakened Dragon Clan was nothing in his eyes.

Just as the Little Dragon Lady had assessed them, these members of the Dragon Clan were nothing but lizards with wings.

The disruption caused by Howard did not affect the calm within Ye Yinzhu.

After calculating the timing carefully, he ordered the Twelve Paladins of Faran and Qin City’s Four Major Infantry Corps, along with Qin City’s Long-range attack legion, to enter the Abyssal Plane in succession.

Having suffered heavy losses in the battle against Qin City, the Faran knights had been significantly depleted.

But, thanks to Faran’s influence, the structure of the Twelve Paladins had been fully restored over six years, with one hundred twenty thousand knights quickly entering under the leadership of the twelve Holy Knights.

Without the hindrance of artisans, the entry of nearly four hundred thousand soldiers from the Qin City Army was much faster.

With the primary force of several hundred thousand Human Soldiers entering the Abyssal Plane, the defensive capabilities were temporarily sufficient.

Especially considering the presence of fourteen Sub-God ranked powerhouses, including the six tower masters of Faran and eight Divine Beasts, even a couple of Demon Kings from the Abyss could have been fended off.

Next to enter the Abyssal Plane were the Beastman Clan’s strong bat troops led by the Dragon Lion Nuo Yun, as well as Beast Emperor Zi’s guard corps, the Amethyst Legion.

Following that, the order finally came down to the Dragon Clan.

They were directed to enter the Abyssal Plane.

When the Giant Divine Dragon Howard entered the Abyssal Plane, he still looked bitterly at Ye Yinzhu, his eyes clearly filled with resentment.

“Marshal Xi Duofu, Marshal Crespo,” Ye Yinzhu called out loudly.

Two figures appeared in front of the armies led by Milan and Landias, each giving Ye Yinzhu a slight bow.

In terms of rank, they were effectively his deputy marshals.

Standing behind Crespo was his daughter, Kleyena, whose strength had nearly reached the Zi rank and was a rather impressive mage.

Therefore, she had also e along with Crespo this time.

At the moment, she was covertly observing Ye Yinzhu in the sky, feeling a peculiar sensation growing and being repressed in her heart.

Despite knowing that nothing could possibly happen between them, Kleyena couldn’t help but harbor admiration for him.

Behind Kleyena, an armored soldier with only one arm was also looking up at Ye Yinzhu.

Little did Ye Yinzhu know, this man was the beggar ‘Brother Feng’ he had once dealt with in Landias City.

After that incident, Brother Feng had pletely turned his life around under Kleyena’s influence.

By dint of his own efforts and originally decent physical condition, even with only one arm, he resolutely joined the military.

Over the years of training, he had stood out and joined the Crespo family, being one of Crespo’s guards.

The only goal left in Brother Feng’s life was to forever protect Kleyena.

Although he was aware of his feelings for Kleyena, he was even more certain that nothing could happen between them, just like Kleyena’s feelings for Ye Yinzhu.

Therefore, he chose to guard her silently.

Now, seeing the man in the sky again, Brother Feng realized how ludicrous his past self had been.

This man, who appeared to be around his age, was actually the mander of the allied forces.

To think that the eight nations’ military forces, along with those from Qin City, Faran, and the Beastman Clan, amounted to over five million soldiers, not counting the supply troops.

His status could be said to be that of a mander of the entire Ryuzakinus Continent!

Looking back, losing an arm to him now seemed more like an honor.

Brother Feng silently sighed in admiration.

He truly was the man Miss Kleyena admired.

If he was the dazzling sun in the sky, then Feng himself was nothing more than a tiny firefly.

“Marshal Xi Duofu, Marshal Crespo, I ask that the two of you lead the dragon cavalry corps formed by the knights of various nations into the Abyssal Plane and take over the military mand of the forces already there, except for the Beastman Clan.

Please make all decisions in conjunction with the third deputy marshal, Zi.”

Ye Yinzhu needed to oversee the general situation here, but the other side also required a mander’s presence.

With well-established figures like Xi Duofu and Crespo in the military to take charge over there, Ye Yinzhu could rest assured while he strategically deployed troops on this front.

“Yes,” both marshals replied respectfully, directing the dragon cavalry corps made up of the eight human nations to proceed into the Abyssal Plane.

With the joint efforts of the eight nations, they had formed six fully-fledged dragon cavalry corps, totaling sixty thousand troops.

These dragon cavalry could be called the most elite forces of the eight human nations, every piece of equipment, weapon, and personnel had been carefully selected, and they were veterans trained for years in the Northernmost Wilderness.

Their training adversaries included the Amethyst Legion with the Legion of Behemoth Beasts.

Even the powerful Amethyst Legion needed the assistance of at least four Divine Beasts to barely withstand the confrontation with them, showing just how formidable the six dragon cavalry corps were.

All of the powerful troops of the Ryuzakinus Alliance Army had at this point been dispatched by Ye Yinzhu to the Abyssal Plane.

The remaining forces of over a million were relatively ordinary soldiers.

Of course, they were only the first echelon.

About two and a half million troops, including the Beastman warriors, were continually being mobilized and equipped with logistical support to gradually join the battlefield over the next three months.

Ye Yinzhu had sent these elite troops into the Abyssal Plane first because they were not only capable of protecting themselves but also had an overwhelming advantage against the Abyssal Creatures.

Additionally, their inherent resistance to harsh environments was notably superior to that of ordinary soldiers, and the construction of the Life ancient tree required time.
