“Senior Sister, today we fight side by side and slay demon beasts!” Lin Yun said with a grin.
“Mm.” Mo Qing nodded gently, a smile on her face.
“My disciple is truly fortunate to be Lin Yun’s partner,” the Shadow Hall Vice Master said with a laugh.
“They do make a fine pair,” Vice Palace Master Yao said, smiling.
“Mo Qing is indeed exceptional, but given Lin Yun’s remarkable achievements, she still falls a bit short,” Empress Kunlan said coolly.
Though her voice was soft, her words reached Mo Qing’s ears.
Mo Qing’s arm trembled slightly, clearly feeling a pang of discomfort.
At the same time, she resolved to cultivate harder. Even if she couldn’t catch up to Lin Yun’s strength, she couldn’t let herself fall too far behind.
“Empress, don’t talk nonsense. Senior Sister and I have walked this path together from Tianjian Sect to now. She’s exceptional!” Lin Yun shot Empress Kunlan a glance.
Next, the Eternal Beings from the Tianqian Empire, the Xingwu Empire, Xiaoyao Tower, Taixu Tavern, and Taigu Sect arrived.
Wave after wave of Eternal Beings descended from the sky, arriving one after another.
Though they came from different directions, they were all remarkably punctual.
The arrival of so many Eternal Beings instantly drew the attention of the soldiers in the camp.
“It’s His Majesty Huoyun, and so many Eternal Beings! And… and powerful dragons!”
The soldiers were stunned.
In front of the camp, within moments, all the Eternal Beings had gathered.
“Vice Palace Master Yao, Palace Master Mo, why are we here?”
Many of the Eternal Beings present voiced their confusion.
After all, before departing, their Dominion Realm leaders had told them they were heading to the Tianqian Empire.
“Everyone, this is our true destination,” Vice Palace Master Yao said.
Now that they had reached Huangyang Pass, there was no need to keep it a secret.
“Little Azure Dragon, you can now release the hidden Dragon Clan reinforcements,” Lin Yun said, turning to Little Azure Dragon.
“Alright.” Little Azure Dragon nodded, then took out the purple gourd and opened it.
Whoosh!
The Dragon Clan reinforcements stored in the purple gourd poured out.
“Dragon Emperor, are we going to fight?” the West Sea Dragon King asked.
“Indeed,” Little Azure Dragon nodded.
“Esteemed Dragon Clan allies, we’ve put you through some discomfort in the gourd. After this battle, the Human Clan will bring out our treasured immortal brew to treat you all!” Palace Master Mo said to the Dragon Clan reinforcements.
At that moment, Commander Fei, who was guarding the pass, landed at the scene.
“Greetings, Your Majesty. I apologise for not coming to welcome you,” Commander Fei said, immediately bowing to Emperor Huoyun.
As for the vast majority of the Eternal Beings present, Commander Fei was unfamiliar with them. He rarely interacted with Eternal Beings, at most knowing a few from the Huoyun Empire.
It was much like when Lin Yun was still in the Transcending Tribulation Realm and only knew a handful of Eternal Beings.
“Commander Fei, take us to the city walls to have a look,” Emperor Huoyun said.
“Yes, sir!”
Commander Fei responded, then led the Eternal Beings to the walls of the pass.
On the towering walls, the Eternal Beings landed.
The moonlight was bright tonight. Though it was dark, looking out, one could still make out the outlines of the mountains and rivers.
“Your Majesty, that’s the Demon Clan’s camp, about a hundred miles away!” Commander Fei pointed into the distance.
Lin Yun looked out. A hundred miles away, flickers of firelight were visible, easily noticeable in the night.
“Good. Commander Fei, we’ll soon launch an attack on the Demon Clan’s camp, then continue pushing forward to reclaim lost territories and cities. You lead the soldiers to follow behind, clean up the battlefield, eliminate remaining enemies, and take control of the cities,” Emperor Huoyun instructed.
Such cleanup tasks naturally fell to the empire’s soldiers. The number of Eternal Beings was limited, and they couldn’t be spared for such duties.
Commander Fei was stunned for a few seconds before hurriedly responding.
“Yes, sir!”
Clearly, Commander Fei was shocked. The Human Clan’s Eternal Beings were finally joining the battle!
This meant the war was entering a new phase, which filled him with excitement after the initial shock.
Palace Master Mo turned to face the Eternal Beings behind him.
“Esteemed Eternal Beings, the Demon Clan has waged this war, destroying our Human Clan’s homes and slaughtering our kin. We Eternal Beings have endured and waited!”
“Now is the time for revenge!” Palace Master Mo’s voice boomed with commanding force.
“Revenge! Revenge! Revenge!” The Eternal Beings shouted in unison, their excitement rising.
Even Lin Yun felt his blood boiling at this moment!
Since the war broke out, Lin Yun had long wanted to join the fight.
But as an Eternal Being, his participation would affect the entire situation, so he couldn’t act rashly and had to hold back.
Many of the Eternal Beings present had been holding back for just as long.
“Everyone, follow me and kill the enemy!”
With Palace Master Mo’s command, he turned into a streak of light and charged forward.
“Kill! Kill! Kill!”
The Eternal Beings swiftly followed, transforming into streaks of light, Lin Yun among them.
“My Dragon Clan warriors, follow me and kill!”
Little Azure Dragon issued the command and charged forward.
“Kill!”
The Dragon Clan army followed Little Azure Dragon’s lead.
“Haha, the Demon Clan is in for it now!” Commander Fei laughed heartily, watching the Eternal Beings and Dragon Clan reinforcements charge out.
“Pass my order! All empire soldiers in Huangyang Pass, assemble immediately and march to battle!” Commander Fei swiftly issued the command.
…
A hundred miles away, at the Demon Clan’s camp.
The camp was also guarded by many Demon Clan warriors, patrolling and standing watch.
“Hmm? What’s that?”
The Demon Clan warriors on duty looked toward the sky ahead.
“Good heavens, so many powerful auras!”
“Human Eternal Beings! And… and dragons!”
Sensing the overwhelming number of powerful auras rushing toward them at high speed, the Demon Clan warriors were stunned.
“Enemy attack! Enemy attack!”
After a moment of shock, the Demon Clan warriors shouted in alarm.
In an instant, their cries echoed through the Demon Clan camp.
The demon beasts stationed in the camp rushed out upon hearing the commotion.
By then, the Human Clan’s Eternal Beings and the Dragon Clan army had reached the skies above the camp.
“Kill!”
In an instant, the Human Clan’s Eternal Beings and the Dragon Clan army unleashed their attacks.
Countless terrifying waves, flashing with dazzling light, enveloped the Demon Clan camp, covering the countless demon beasts within.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Earth-shattering explosions erupted in the Demon Clan camp, shattering the silence of the night!
