Mountain Patrol Military Officer-Chapter 1107 - 730: Devil Race’s Provocation

When the Devil Race attacked various convoys, causing chaos, Chen Yuan, who was discussing matters with Gongsun Yang at the Ninth Mountain Colonel Hall, suddenly shifted his gaze, his eyes flashing fiercely, and a wave of violent pressure erupted.

In the sky above the Ninth Mountain, a golden light thunderously pierced the universe, straight into the clouds. Within the golden light, an imposing dharma image donned the True Dragon Treasure Armor, a Lion Barbarian Belt wrapped around his waist, eyes bursting with Divine Light, holding a Three-pointed Two-blade Spear.

"Creature, how dare you!"

Chen Yuan’s voice was like a booming bell, resonating through the universe, each word rolled like thunder, shaking the firmament. Before the words were finished, the vertical eye on his forehead suddenly opened, two beams of golden Divine Light swept across like searchlights, where they passed, the demonic smoke melted away as ice meeting blazing sun.

Immediately following, the dharma image akin to a Heavenly God snorted coldly, a dragon’s roar rose, the True Dragon Treasure Armor quivered, colorful scales flew and shot out dazzlingly towards all directions, breaking through the void at high speed.

Within breaths, covering dozens of miles, the scales transformed into peerless Divine Weapons, slashing ferociously like raindrops towards the bodies of the demons causing chaos.

"Puh"

"Puh"

"Puh"

The grotesque bodies of the demons, under the cold glint of scales, were sliced into disarray like paper, dismembered directly, chunks of flesh scattered everywhere.

Within a few breaths, those towering Demon Shadows rampaging through the bustling streets fell like collapsing buildings, leaving behind haunting howls. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh"

The scales, like boomerangs, returned after dealing with the demons.

Immediately after, the enormous heavenly-like image above Yunding Mountain descended and disappeared, akin to a whale swallowing clouds.

At this moment, the convoy bringing supplies scattered chaotically, broken axles scattered across the roads, goods from the wagons either trampled beyond recognition or stained with dark demon blood and deep red human blood. Pieces of demon corpses splattered everywhere, emitting a pungent stench, dark red blood snaking along the green stone slabs. Cries and screams reverberated sharply, survivors huddled by shattered carts, some holding cold corpses crying out, others trembling in fright, stifled sobs in their throats, scattered horses shrieking mournfully, shadows pierced the sky with sharp whistle sounds, rushing to the scene.

"Quickly, rescue the injured!"

"What’s really happening here."

"..."

Scenes of anger and shouting, chaos ensued.

Meanwhile, on the balcony of a two-story structure in Yun Mansion, the Demon King of Devil Race, with triangular eyes, watched the enormous dharma image in the sky above Yunding Mountain disappear, eyes glinting with amused control.

"Quick reaction indeed, our enemy is strong, this king counted, within four breaths, the Holy Clan arranged by this king were all slain." The Demon King’s words carried no hint of pain,

"Unfortunately, if they persisted a while longer, this king’s greeting gift to the Martial Saint General would be richer."

"Heh heh, the Holy King is wise, disrupting the supply convoy of the Mountain-cutting Army, morale will surely plummet, killing two birds with one stone."

"Listen, the sounds coming from afar are so melodious." A seductive laugh sounded beside, a fur-clad young girl listened to the distant screams and cries, showing a satisfied smile, her eyes alluring.

Before long, chaos erupted within Yun Mansion, filled with the frantic cries of maids and servants.

.....

The four convoys transporting military supplies were slaughtered by demons in Jingguan City’s busy district, not only were goods damaged, but the escort teams suffered significant casualties, moreover, bystanders were also caught up, with considerable fatalities.

The scene was dealt with pendulumly till dusk.

The incident caused an earthquake, immensely grave in nature, so many demons infiltrated Jingguan City without anyone noticing, for a while in the city, in taverns and teashops, streets and alleys, public panic ensued, at night, Jingguan City families closed doors and windows, a layer of gloom shrouded above.

Furthermore, the incident stirred outrage on Yunding Mountain, the Heavenly Patrol Hall on Yunding Mountain, with a sea of people kneeling in the fire-lit hall, the atmosphere suffocatingly oppressive, storm brewing.

On the topmost chair, clad in treasure armor, Chen Yuan’s gaze like murderous blades, no one dared raise their head in the hall.

Below, the imperial envoy Minister of the Ministry of Rites Jiang Yi stood beside, similarly suffocated by the atmosphere.

As the saying goes sky-high emperor distant, the Imperial Capital tens of thousands of miles away, regarding the situation in Shu, only through court’s memorials, or hearsay, with no true concept, witnessing demons rampaging in city today, he realized now the severity of the situation exceeds his imagination.

Demons brazenly slaughtered their way to Šu’s Administrative Office, even under broad daylight, the seriousness of the matter can be imagined.

A battle is inevitable, and having lost most of His Majesty’s rewards, now, hearing the city families donated supplies purposely destroyed by demons,

he feels a heavy heart.

Others in the hall feel similarly.

Those kneeling within the hall include the Four City Guards, Prefect, and several Assistant Generals from the Co-defense Camp, as well as Colonels Yun Tiansheng and Lu Ming.

Last meeting, regarding demons ambushing government soldiers transporting supplies to Jingguan along the way, the Colonels discussed the protocol in the hall, who was responsible for escorting which mansion’s supplies, investigating demons’ affair, at that time, Jingguan City under Chen Yuan’s jurisdiction, Yun Tiansheng and Lu Ming took on this responsibility.

Unexpectedly, in a few days, under everyone’s noses, such heinous event occurred, a blatant provocation by the Devil Race, slapping the face of the entire Administrative Office.

The Four City Guards and Prefect, respectively guarding city gates and managing city affairs, failed to notice the infiltration of so many demons into Jingguan City, naturally, they couldn’t escape responsibility.

The key point is, this will be a significant blow to morale and public confidence!

"Speak!"

"All dumb?"

"Tell me, how did these demons get here."

"There are always traces; in such crucial times, I ask you, are clueless to the point of ignorance."

Chen Yuan spoke, voice icy like frost, his gaze fixed on the Four City Guards and Prefect kneeling below.

The Four City Guards and Prefect felt a mountain-like pressure on their backs, clueless where those demons suddenly emerged from, but since the incident occurred, within their scope of duty, grievances unspoken, heads hung low.

"Boom"

Chen Yuan shattered the chair.

Everyone in the hall flinched.

Only Gongsun Yang, the veteran general, stepped forward, bowing.

"General calm your anger, there may be more to this!"

Gongsun Yang spoke, eyes heavy.
