God of Pets-Chapter 546: Battle of Celestial Yang City

Celestial Yang City is not a place known for rain, but in recent days, it has been overcast, with a light drizzle continuing to fall.

The inside of the house is damp everywhere, the clothes in the closet are a bit moldy, and they feel damp and sticky when worn, very uncomfortable.

The rain is not heavy, you don’t even need an umbrella, but it just feels very uncomfortable.

The demon soldiers guarding the city were feeling uncomfortable, wondering how long this annoying weather would last when they suddenly saw, in the distance on the plains, a cavalry appear.

"Human cavalry?" The demon soldiers saw what it was and were momentarily stunned, their eyes filled with disbelief, which quickly turned into scorn and ridicule.

These lower-ranking soldiers were obviously unaware of Lei Yan’s great defeat, nor did they know that a group of just over three hundred human knights had annihilated two thousand of the Thousand Break Army.

Seeing only a few hundred human cavalry marching toward Celestial Yang City, it was like watching a group of rabbits heading to the tiger’s den to deliver themselves to death.

But the higher-ups of the city defense army, when they saw this human cavalry, were startled.

They naturally knew what this team was, but they hadn’t expected this team would come so quickly.

They originally thought that Chen Guan and his group would still head to other checkpoints to kill the demon soldiers there, but they didn’t expect they would head directly for Celestial Yang City so soon, completely different from their previous pace, so much so that they didn’t have time to deploy the planned troops.

They quickly relayed the message to the City Lord’s Mansion, and soon Mo Qianpo personally brought people to the city gate.

Through the fine silk-like raindrops, the demon commanders saw the cavalry standing outside the city gates. At the forefront was not Bai Xiuyan, but a man dressed in pitch-black armor, face like that of a deity, riding a dark jade Qilin horse.

Bai Xiuyan, clad in white, was at that person’s left side.

The demon high command knew that the man with the divine countenance in black armor should be the commander of this cavalry, Zi Donglai. They, too, had received the message, knowing who the true commander of the cavalry was.

But they did not care much, still believing that the reason for Lei Yan’s great defeat was Bai Xiuyan single-handedly beheading Lei Yan, with the battle array commander being secondary.

Under the gloomy clouds, nearly ten thousand demons within the city faced off against over three hundred human cavalry outside, yet the morale on the human side did not drop in the slightest.

Two human heads hung on the flagpole at the Celestial Yang City gate, faces sun-dried beyond recognition, resembling cured meat, indistinguishable who they once were.

"Demons within the city, dare you come out and engage in a battle to the death with my forces?" Nan Zilan roared loudly, releasing all the anger and resentment accumulated in his heart in that shout.

The last time he left Celestial Yang City, he was like a dog that lost its home.

Now, he had returned, following a commander akin to a War God, killing his way back with an invincible stance.

To destroy Celestial Yang City, avenging the Black and White Impermanence Couple and tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians in the city, was a task nearly impossible to complete. But with the Purple General by his side, he believed it could be done.

If the Purple General said it could be done, then it must be possible.

To annihilate the demons in Celestial Yang City, to retrieve and bury the Black and White Impermanence heads—this was something he dared not even think about before.

But now, he really had come to the gates of Celestial Yang City.

Their three hundred plus cavalry was here, yet the demons in Celestial Yang City didn’t immediately choose to fight. If it was the former Nan Zilan, he would think it too fantastic, even more so than when the Black and White Impermanence used ten thousand to resist a hundred thousand, holding Celestial Yang City for three years.

Back then, at least they had the solid city walls of Celestial Yang City to rely on, which were built with Secret Spirit Materials and had their own Primordial Energy Defense Shield. As long as there was enough energy injected, the city defense shield could block the vast majority of attacks.

Of course, the energy required to activate the Primordial Energy Defense Shield was also immense, and if Celestial Yang City hadn’t already been exhausted of supplies, perhaps they could have held out a bit longer.

All the Celestial Sun Cavalry followed with an angry shout, their eyes fixed on the desiccated heads on the flagpole, filled with searing hatred and the fire of revenge.

The Black and White Impermanence Couple, they were not originally the defenders of Celestial Yang City, not even soldiers of Celestial Yang City, but they stood up and took on the heavy responsibility of confronting the demons at that time.

With their abilities, they had a chance to escape, but they stayed until the last second, living and dying with Celestial Yang City.

Others called them assassins, ruthless executioners, evil-devouring ghosts.

But without them, the demons would have breached and massacred Celestial Yang City long ago.

"Bai Xiuyan, do you dare fight me?" The gates of Celestial Yang City thundered open, Mo Qianpo, clad in blood-red armor, wearing a blood-colored mask, riding a massive Demon Beast Secret Spirit, came out to the front of the formation, surrounded and guarded by a unit of the Thousand Break Army, staring at Bai Xiuyan and asked.

Bai Xiuyan looked at Chen Guan; he hadn’t expected Mo Qianpo would personally come out to challenge him, deeply hoping to seize this opportunity to avenge the Black and White Impermanence Couple with his own hands.

But he could not allow his personal desires to ruin Chen Guan’s plan, hence he looked at Chen Guan.

"Are you willing to fight?" Chen Guan asked Bai Xiuyan.

"If it doesn’t interfere with your strategic deployment, I would wish for nothing more," Bai Xiuyan said softly, but the determination in his tone was unmistakable.

"Brother Bai, your wounds..." Nan Zilan was somewhat worried.

Mo Qianpo’s strength was something he had seen on the battlefield before; even the Black and White Impermanence, working together, could only barely match Mo Qianpo.

And the fame of Black and White Impermanence and Bai Xiuyan was equivalent, being close friends who admired each other; their strength should be similar, even if Bai Xiuyan was somewhat stronger, it wouldn’t be by much over either Black or White Impermanence individually.

If Bai Xiuyan were in his prime, perhaps he could battle Mo Qianpo.

But now Bai Xiuyan was still affected by the Profound Celestial Emperorless Fist, relying only on Blood Clot Jade Bodhi to recover energy, his combat power severely diminished, and in a one-on-one situation, it seemed unlikely to be optimistic.

"It doesn’t matter, to personally avenge them, this body should be able to hold up for a while," Bai Xiuyan said with calm eyes, yet inside he was unwaveringly determined.

Nan Zilan remained worried, looking at Chen Guan, hoping he could persuade Bai Xiuyan.

But Chen Guan looked at Bai Xiuyan and said, "Since he wants to die, let’s fulfill his wish, let him witness the grace of the first sword of the human race before he dies, that way he won’t die with regrets."

"Haha, good, that’s exactly what I intended." Bai Xiuyan said, readying to enter the battlefield for the challenge.

However, Chen Guan then said, "Brother Bai, with your realm and ability, killing a demon with three swords is enough, don’t waste time, we brothers are waiting to break the city and kill the enemy."

Bai Xiuyan and Nan Zilan were momentarily stunned; Nan Zilan thought the Purple General was being muddled, had he forgotten Bai Xiuyan was injured?

Bai Xiuyan, however, after a moment of surprise, smiled even more happily: "Alright, three swords then, three swords are enough to kill one demon."

Saying this, Bai Xiuyan rode his Five-Colored Horse toward the battlefield.

Their unrestrained conversation naturally was heard by the demons, who instantly seethed with rage and wished they could rip Chen Guan’s mouth to shreds, then chop him up to feed to the dogs.
