Spare Me, Great Lord!

The supervisors of the Blood Devil army did not intend to send the vanguard troops to their deaths. Instead, they wanted them to use their bodies to stop the flood to buy time for the later troops. The core powers in the Blood Devil army had started to dig canals to release the floodwater.

They were extremely fast as they used their bodies as tools. They would punch the boulders in front of them.

 The seven vanguard troops gathered. They did not dare the betray the willpower of the supervisors. In a short one minute, walls of bodies were formed.

When the flood crashed into the wall of bodies, some Blood Devils were instantly washed away. But after the flood passed through several walls of bodies, the collision gradually grew weaker. When the flood reached downstream, the collision had grown much weaker!

 Needless to say, the wall of bodies was useful. It helped to buy time for the later batches of the Blood Devil army!

 When the canal was dug up, the troops from the Blood Devil army stepped on the bodies of the vanguard troops and continued to climb up. They had never considered the deaths of their comrades. They had only one aim, to carry out the orders of their king!

In order to achieve their goal, they would sacrifice everything, even themselves!

 When Lu Shu was at the Koh Chang Island remains, he saw the Inferno Blood Devils sacrificing themselves. Needless to say, their ferocity was natural. It made people tremble with fear.

Thus, shortly after Lu Shu heard the crashing sound, he saw the Blood Devil army climbing up the mountain and looking at the palace!

 The Blood Devils stood on the mountains like ferocious statues. They were the most repulsive statues humans had ever seen.

 Gradually, the entire mountain was filled with the red Blood Devil army. The north was dyed a bewitching red. There were even Blood Devils flying overhead. They covered the land and the sky!

 But Lu Shu was very clear that this was only a small part of the Blood Devil army!

 The Blood Devil army did not attack immediately. They were waiting for the water to disappear. Then, it would be the best opportunity for them to attack. Most of the Blood Devils would have arrived by then. They would have enough manpower to eliminate the palace.

 

Lu Shu turned and said to Zhang Weiyu and Li Liang, “Prepare to fight. The water will be drained in seven days.”

 Li Liang furrowed his eyebrows. “If I were them, with so many troops present, I would be willing to sacrifice a portion of them. When the Imperial Dragon Soldiers thinks that the Blood Devils will only attack after all the water is drained, they will launch a surprise attack. We have to be alert.”

 “Oh.” Lu Shu nodded his head. He solemnly said to Li Liang, “From now on, your job will be difficult. But they think that once the moat is gone, they will be able to attack the palace. They are too naive.”

 Li Liang did not ask Lu Shu what other methods he had. This time, they did not prepare many defensive weapons to guard the city, as there were far too many Blood Devils. Even if they had crossbows, they would only be able to kill a few Blood Devils. At that moment, the weapons would wear out as well.

 This was the world of the cultivation civilization!

 Chen Zuan and Cheng Qiuqiao leaned against the wall and looked at the red mountains. Chen Zuan sighed. “Tridents will be weak against those who can fly in the skies. If the Flood of Bronze were here, we would be able to gather them with flying swords!”

 Needless to say, Chen Zuan had identified the weakness of the Imperial Dragon Soldiers. The World Tide of the Imperial Palace Soldiers could split into seven flying swords. They were well-equipped for both close combat and long range combat.

 But the Imperial Dragon Soldiers were only equipped with tridents. They were good for close combat. Furthermore, they were ferocious weapons. One strike could kill the Blood Devils. But the problem was, if the Blood Devils could fly, it was difficult to kill them.

 Chen Zuan looked at Cheng Qiuqiao. “How many Blood Devils can you bring down with your Little Conch Shell?”

At this moment, Cheng Qiuqiao’s expression turned dark, but he answered the question properly. “Maybe a few thousand. This is the limit of my Rank One abilities.”

 “Only a few thousand?” Chen Zuan turned and looked at the Blood Devils, which filled the skies. “There are probably hundreds of thousands flying there. Your powers are not enough…”

 “Then you do it.” Cheng Qiuqiao was unhappy. When the Little Conch Shell was mentioned, he grew angry.

 If he simply sang the Little Conch Shell, it would be good enough that 3000 to 5000 Blood Devils went down. He had an advanced version, but even with that, Cheng Qiuqiao estimated that his limit was 10 thousand Blood Devils.

Most importantly, the Blood Devils might not die when they fell to the ground. They would still have the ability to continue fighting.

 “Don’t be anxious.” Chen Zuan sighed. “How great would it be if we were both masters? I feel that if I were a master, I would be able to eat several thousand Blood Devils in one bite. Although it sounds disgusting, I have no other choice…”

 “Why are you talking about useless things? Rank Ones should do what Rank Ones do,” said Cheng Qiuqiao unkindly.

 

“But what if we cannot defeat them?” Chen Zuan was unhappy. “Can’t I just imagine?”

 “Can’t defeat them?” Cheng Qiuqiao looked at Chen Zuan. “If we can’t defeat them, then we will die here with Brother Shu! Make those Blood Devils die with us!”

 But no one expected the Blood Devils to come this quickly!

 The seven days that Lu Shu had calculated included the time for the water to be drained and for the ground to dry up. But on the second night, he saw the Blood Devils start to move.

 He realized that once the Blood Devils had stabilized at the mountains, they had opened up seven to eight channels. The speed at which water flowed through continuously grew faster.

 But up till this moment, the water was waist high. When one stepped on the ground underwater, they would sink into a hole. Furthermore, the ground would continuously pull them in.

 Lu Shu thought that the Blood Devils would wait, but they did not intend on doing so!

 The setting sun was as red as blood!

 When night fell and the sun sank below the horizon, the Blood Devils that filled the mountains started to attack. They used the bodies of their dead comrades to pave the way. The weakest and smallest Blood Devils had been sacrificed!

 In the sky, the Blood Devils spread out their massive wings and flew towards the palace. The East Region moved. So had the West Region. Wen Zaifou commanded his army to clash with the West Region army, where Sun Xunwen was. Sun Xunwen had given up on attacking the city. Instead, he led the West Region army to clash with the South Region army!

 Lu Shu’s expression grew serious. This was the present that the enemy had bestowed him with. He would have to uncover their plans here.

 The disciples from the Sword Hut were already at the east wall. This was Jiang Shuyi’s decision. As long as the disciples from the Sword Hut were present, the east would not fall.

 He turned his back against the sky full of Blood Devils. He smiled to Zhang Weiyu and the rest of the Imperial Dragon Soldiers. “Are you ready?”

 The Imperial Dragon Soldiers pulled down their helmets in unison. There was a crash as their helmets hit their armor.

 “Put your all into this fight. Once you are done killing, I will bring you all home.” Once Lu Shu finished speaking, he turned around. He was like a young man about to slaughter a dragon, facing a sky full of evil dragons. The young man was still the young man. He had not turned into an evil dragon.

Zhang Weiyu held his World Tide and calmly said, “I have left glory behind a long time ago.”
