Chapter 1321: Bloody War at the Palace
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The Blood Devil army used the weakest and the lowest-leveled Blood Devils who had not fully developed as the foundation of their bridge. The rest of the army used this bridge to cross the waist-high water.
Thousands of Blood Devils stepped on the corpses of their comrades without fear and advanced. They suddenly rushed towards the palace.
Gradually, the Blood Devils underwater could not bear the massive force from being stepped on. They coughed out blood. The skin on their backs started to turn red. In the end, they were trampled to death underwater.
They truly used the bones of the dead to pave the way forward. The Blood Devil army wanted to obtain victory by stepping on the corpses of their comrades.
Lu Shu was clear with his judgment. After the Blood Devil reached Rank Three, they gained the ability to fly. There were over 100 thousand Inferno Blood Devils, or even millions of them, who could fly.
Lu Shu was thankful that Qing Kong only endured for over a decade before he could no longer take it. He was also thankful that the resources in the North Region were limited. The rate at which the Blood Devils obtained strength from humans probably had something to do with the strength of their hosts.
This meant that Blood Devils in the bodies of ordinary people would not be very strong, as ordinary people would not be able to provide the Blood Devils with much resources.
Thankfully, this was the case. If not, the Imperial Dragon Soldiers would have to face an even stronger enemy.
Lu Shu looked at the east wall. The disciples of the Sword Hut maintained a strict formation. Everyone had unsheathed their swords. They were not flowers who had been grown in a greenhouse. They did not just know how to train in the Sword Hut. They radiated murderous intent.
The training model of the Sword Hut was very good. A majority of the disciples in the Sword Hut were from armies. Before they entered the Sword Hut, they had stained their hands with blood.
Furthermore, to the Sword Hut, their strength was good enough if they passed the first round. But Gu Lingfei was very clever. She eliminated all those who were not suitable or were lurking with danger in the second round.
Thus, even if the disciples of the Sword Hut had the blood of the wealthy families in the palace, they were the sons of concubines who had been neglected. Back then, when Sun Xunwen wanted to send Sun Zhongyang to the rear mountain of the Sun Zhongyang, no matter how many resources Sun Xunwen provided, his wishes did not come true.
The Sword Hut would not allow any wealthy family to buy their way in, unless their child was malleable.
Furthermore, after their training at the Sword Hut, the Sword Hut would encourage them to return to their armies and train. It was not to allow them to train their combat skills. They were afraid that the disciples would lose their bloodthirstiness in the Sword Hut.
Did this group of murderers need skills to fight in an army? They had the foundation of a Rank One. In a place where they spent thousands of years training warriors, they did not need the contrast of weaklings.
To them, an ordinary army was a form of contrast.
Now, they had all gathered at the city wall. They unsheathed their swords from their waists. They would fight for the King of Gods once again.
The Sword Hut existed to help God Lu fight. The disciples of the Sword Hut had never forgotten this fact. No matter how many conflicts broke out between the head of the Sword Hut and God Lu, they would never forget about this.
When war was upon them, the Sword Hut called back all their disciples.
But this was not the mysterious part. Most mysteriously, all of them returned. Not a single one of them was missing.
Lu Shu had agreed to the Sword Hut protecting the east wall. Back then, most of the male companions he had encountered in the East Region imperial palace were Rank Ones. Yu Fuyao might have taken resources from the East Region and spent many years nurturing hundreds of Rank One experts. There might be many masters as well. If not, she would be pained if she had to sacrifice a master on Earth, right?
Perhaps Jiang Shuyi also knew about this. Thus, she offered to handle this problem. Lu Shu was very grateful that she was very clear in her judgment. They were truly on the same side.
But now, Lu Shu suddenly realized that Jiang Shuyi had offered to guard the east, simply because she did not want to deal with the Blood Devils!
At first, although Lu Shu knew that there were many Blood Devils, he did not expect this many. He did not know that the restricted airspace in the palace was completely useless either…
Of course, Lu Shu felt that it was good enough that the Sword Hut could participate in the battle.
The King of Gods had to lead the Sword Hut and fight. No matter whether it was the evil intention of God Lu reaching the realm of the King of Gods, or allowing Qing Kong to transform the Luniverse into hell, Jiang Shuyi and the others did not want to see this happen. They would not accept either outcome.
Putting aside their loyalty to the King of Gods, they understood the meaning of mutual interdependence very well.
This battle concerned the life and death of everyone.
When the red wave surged forth, Li Liang coldly said through the communication channel, “Everyday, you boast about how amazing you are. Actions speak louder than words, it’s time to see what someone is worth! Imperial Dragon Soldiers, form three columns. Imperial Palace Soldiers, cover the skies!”
Lu Shu, Lu Xiaoyu, Ming Yueye, and the others did not immediately attack. Their enemies were not these ordinary Blood Devils.
Everyone had a part to play in a war. If they could do what they wanted just because they were strong, they would not be able to fight this war.
Lu Shu, the Imperial Palace Soldiers, and a few others were the only ones who could counter the Blood Devils in the sky. Needless to say, even after the World Tide split into seven parts, it still had massive destructive power!
Now that Ouyang Lishang did not need to create messenger mirrors, he changed his focus to other weapons, for example the World Tide.
Lu Shu had brought the mold back from Earth. All Ouyang Lishang had to do was to create and carve the patterns with his disciples. The Imperial Dragon Soldiers needed more World Tides, They had to face the Inferno Blood Devils, which could fly in the sky. They needed more methods.
Lu Shu and Lu Xiaoyu looked at each other. Lu Shu aimed his Sparrow Shade to the sky, like a gray tornado. He said to Lu Xiaoyu, “Let Anthony attack to buy them some time.”
It was common for accidental deaths to occur in the beginning stages of a war. This mistreatment was a result of not knowing what techniques would be most effective against the enemy. It was like playing a game. The first time you encountered a monster, you would not know what skills and attacks they had. It was easy to die suddenly.
What Lu Shu had to do was to help them reduce some of this pressure and allow them to find their own rhythm quickly. He also had to allow them to find a way to deal with the Blood Devils.
Lu Xiaoyu nodded. She summoned Anthony, who had been hiding underground. Ming Yueye guarded them, preventing anyone from assassinating Lu Shu and Lu Xiaoyu.
In the past, Ming Yueye was the commander of the guards. Later on, he passed on this role to Arcane. Thus, Ming Yueye’s role was to protect God Lu, even though God Lu did not need the protection of anyone. The only person who could kill God Lu was himself.
The ground started to collapse. Some Blood Devils who were walking on the path of skeletons suddenly realized that the bridge of bones beneath their feet was starting to fall apart. In the end, the bridge sank into the ground, bringing the Blood Devils on the bridge along with it!
