Chapter 641 The Northern Incident!
Watching the arrow shatter into nothingness, Chen Tianjian took a deep breath, clenched his fist, and the Emperor's Sword appeared within it. He then looked towards a certain place.
"Who is coming?"
A cold glint flashed in Chen Tianjian's eyes. He took a step forward, his sword-like eyebrows furrowed, and gazed at the figures in the distant sky. His calm voice remained unmoved by the current situation.
After all, as the military prime minister, it wouldn't do his morale any good if the enemy's large-scale operation didn't boost it.
Moreover, having ruled the North for many years, he shows no fear whatsoever regarding the current situation.
What is there for a true man to fear in death? Fighting on the battlefield is where a real man is meant to be!
"Open your eyes and see who I am?"
As the faint laughter subsided, the distant sky became illusory, gradually coalescing before transforming into a middle-aged man with two horns on his head, exuding a murderous aura.
This middle-aged man also had wings on his back, giving him an imposing presence.
"So it's the Lion Demon King. What? Instead of going back to your Lion Demon Clan, are you here to invite trouble?"
Upon seeing this person, Chen Tianjian narrowed his eyes slightly, then sneered and said.
"Hehe, times have changed. My Lion Demon Clan has fought against your Northern Army for many years. Today we have come to avenge our past humiliations!"
"However, the Demon Saint has ordered that if you surrender and all become Ghost Scholars, we will not harm a single soldier from the Northern Border Army!"
The lion demon king's eyes were filled with coldness as he spoke.
"hehe."
Chen Tianjian wouldn't listen to his nonsense, and even if it were true, probably no one present would do it.
"Second tier!"
"Defensive formation! Nine Palaces Eight Trigrams Formation, prepare!"
Then, Chen Tianjian shouted, and countless soldiers lined up again. Beams of light rose into the sky, eventually forming a defensive shield that enveloped the entire northern territory.
Moreover, in addition, soldiers of the rank of Juren (a successful candidate in the highest imperial examinations) held bows and arrows, their eyes fixed on the demon soldiers.
These arrows were exceptionally sharp, and under the sunlight, they gleamed with a chilling aura, clearly indicating that they were no ordinary objects.
"You are truly stubborn and incorrigible. Since that's the case, there's nothing more to discuss. Lord Demon Saint, please come out and annihilate these Northern Army soldiers."
Upon seeing this, the Lion Demon King frowned, then knelt down in a certain void and respectfully said...
"There's even a demon saint here..."
Chen Tianjian's heart skipped a beat. If it were these demon kings, there was still a chance of victory, but if a demon saint came, then his soldiers would be like fish on a chopping board, at the mercy of others.
He was merely a great Confucian scholar, not yet at the level of a half-saint. Only a half-saint could defeat a demon of this level.
"Since that's the case, then I, the Holy One, will wipe out these ants for our demon race."
A faint voice came from the void. After the voice fell, a young man in black slowly emerged. Countless demonic snakes coiled around him, and a shrill scream echoed throughout the world, sending chills down everyone's spine.
"Nine Serpent Demon Saint?"
Chen Tianjian took a deep breath and looked at the Nine Serpent Demon Saint, his heart growing heavier and heavier.
This Nine-Snake Demon Saint is a renowned figure among the demon race. Although his strength is not as great as some of the demon saints, he is still considered mid-level. Even Su Wenmo is probably no match for him.
"I have long heard of Chen Wuxiang's unparalleled talent and extraordinary strategy. Today, I, the Nine Serpent Demon Saint, will have the opportunity to learn from him."
As soon as he finished speaking, the Nine Serpent Demon Saint said no more. He lightly tapped the Chen Tian Sword with his finger, and a chilling voice suddenly rang out:
"Kill, leave no one behind!"
"kill!"
As the Nine Serpent Demon Saint's shout fell, countless demon soldiers outside the Northern Border suddenly released a torrent of demonic energy, and a deafening sound resounded here. Finally, like a tidal wave, carrying a soaring killing intent, it rushed towards the Northern Border soldiers.
The surging demon soldiers, like a tidal wave, made the northern army soldiers' faces solemn, and their expressions also showed some determination.
"Shoot!"
"Shhhhhh!"
Just then, Chen Tianjian's face turned cold, and with a wave of his hand, countless arrows, carrying the sound of wind breaking, shot towards the demon soldier like a tidal wave.
In an instant, a mournful sound resounded throughout the land.
Chen Tianjian stared intently at the demon soldiers' relentless attacks in the distance, then looked towards the horizon as if waiting for someone to arrive.
But after thinking about it, he gave a bitter smile. Ye Ru had already gone to Zhong Sheng Mountain, and he hadn't sent anyone to tell him about the situation here, so how could he possibly come back?
Moreover, even if he returns, he probably wouldn't be able to withstand such a powerful demon saint.
"Hmph, do you really think these shabby defenses can keep us out?"
The Nine-Headed Serpent Demon Saint glanced at the dead demon soldiers below, showing no pity whatsoever. In his view, these were merely a small part of their plan and not worthy of sympathy.
Then, he raised his head, stretched out his hand, and finally clenched it tightly.
The demonic snakes behind him crashed heavily into the protective shield like lightning.
Boom boom boom!
After these demonic snakes fell onto the protective shield, a series of earth-shattering muffled thuds resounded throughout the area, causing ripples to appear on the shield.
"Damn it, this guy actually attacked the shield."
A chill flashed in Chen Tianjian's eyes. If this protective shield were to be breached, then he would truly have to fight the other side with swords and spears.
"Hmph, break it for me!"
Upon seeing this, the Nine-Headed Demon Saint unleashed a punch.
The fist, carrying immense power, slammed into the protective shield, causing it to tremble precariously.
"Lord Martial Prime Minister, let's kill them. Otherwise, once the protective shield breaks, I'm afraid..."
"I know."
Before Wei Lu could finish speaking, Chen Tianjian took a deep breath and then waved his hand:
"Remove the protective shields, let's charge!"
boom!
As soon as these words were spoken, the protective shield finally shattered and was removed by the crowd. Immediately afterwards, countless soldiers, wielding weapons, fiercely attacked the demon soldiers.
"Lord Martial Prime Minister, we've come to your aid too!"
At the same time, a cold shout came from behind the northern border. Zhao Mingcheng, leading a group of scholars, flew towards this side and eventually joined the war.
"Why are you here? Shouldn't you be working at Zicheng?"
Chen Tianjian turned his head and looked at Zhao Mingcheng.
"We've already been attacked to our doorstep. What's the point of holding a position? If the northern border falls, we'll be left vulnerable, and Zicheng will be destroyed as well. Rather than that, we might as well fight to our hearts' content here!"
Zhao Mingcheng laughed heartily, his laughter filled with a sense of pride.
Upon hearing this, Chen Tianjian nodded, a resolute glint in his eyes, and said in a deep voice:
"In that case, let's go!"
