Chapter 701: Prepare To Attack!
Translator: Atlas Studios | Editor: Atlas Studios
Ye Qiubai and Lin Zhinan also agreed with Le Zhengchi’s words.
The other party might still be in the preparation stage if they were to attack now, but it was only a possibility.
However, in a situation where he didn’t know anything, he wanted to take the initiative to attack.
The faster the speed, the higher the success rate.
At this moment, Lin Zhinan said, “We can take the initiative to attack, but before we attack, we have to let Miao Bangdao understand the terrain around Purgatory City clearly. At the same time, we have to find out if the other party’s personnel are in Purgatory City.”
“In case this is the other party’s trap and lures us all out. Then, we’ll march straight in and occupy the cities on our two sides.”
Le Zhengchi nodded and said, “You don’t have to worry about that. Miao Bangdao has already investigated it thoroughly.”
Then, he took out a map.
The map clearly depicted the terrain around Purgatory City and the guards on the city wall.
“The people from the Infernal Purgatory and the Heaven Underworld Hall are all in Purgatory City.”
As for Miao Bangdao’s level of investigation…
Lin Zhinan was naturally not worried at all.
Unless the other party had a shielding array or illusion array that surpassed the Earth Immortal realm.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to avoid Miao Bangdao’s detection.
“In that case, let’s start gathering people.”
Ye Qiubai made the final decision and pointed outside the northern city wall of Purgatory City on the map.
This place was a dense forest of hills, which was extremely suitable for hiding and gathering teams.
Since the people from the Infernal Purgatory and the Heaven Underworld Hall were all in Purgatory City, there was no need to consider guarding the city.
This was a small-scale city battle, unlike a large-scale city battle after all.
They had to make full use of their manpower.
At this moment, a hundred miles away from Purgatory City, in a dense forest on a hill.
Both sides of the Star Cloud City and the Demon King City had already gathered here.
On Star Cloud City’s side, the leader was Le Zhengchi.
He stood at the front like Ye Qiubai.
At this moment, Lin Zhinan held the map and spread it out on the ground. He pointed up and said, “We’re currently at the north gate.”
“Even though the other party only has eight people, after investigation, there are puppets guarding the city wall. These puppets seem to be all at the half-step Turbid Immortal Realm.”
“Two men on each wall.”
No one interrupted. They had all heard of Lin Zhinan’s reputation as a think tank.
It was most suitable for him to command.
“We actually don’t have enough manpower. At most, we only have 17 people.”
On Ye Qiubai’s side, there were only eight people left because Chi Bing and Gu Xi had died.
There were nine people led by Le Zhengchi, Chen Hui, and Miao Bangdao in the Star Cloud City.
“It’s obviously unrealistic for the seventeen of us to attack the four sides of Purgatory City at the same time. This way, our manpower will be too scattered and it’s not conducive to timely support.”
Lin Zhinan pointed to the east side of the city wall and said, “There’s a plain outside the east side of the city wall. There’s no obstruction between it and the north side of the city wall. Therefore, this is one of our attack points. We, the people of Helcrown City, will attack head-on.”
“You will attack the city wall from the north.”
“Of course, because of the east wall, the place where we attack is on a plain, so you have to attack first.”
“This way, we can retreat and attack. After attracting the other party’s attention, we will attack from the east!”
Lin Zhinan’s attack method was very simple but was also very effective.
In a situation where there were not enough people on both sides.
They attacked from two directions without any obstruction.
First, he could lengthen the opponent’s defensive line.
Moreover, it could force the other party to be unable to support the eastern city wall immediately. It could also disperse their strength while fighting against Star Cloud City!
It was simple, but it was the most suitable way to fight.
In other words, it was a pincer attack that was often used in war.
On the rogue cultivators’ side, someone raised a question. This person was also an outstanding rogue cultivator, Nie Bingchen.
He had reached the early-stage Turbid Immortal Realm.
Nie Bingchen frowned slightly and said, “Why didn’t you attack from the north?”
The attackers from the north had to act as the vanguard to attract the enemy’s firepower.
On the surface, the risk factor was naturally much higher.
Lin Zhinan smiled and looked at Nie Bingchen. “Then you can also choose to attack from the east. There’s a large plain in the east. You can only attack, but it’s not easy to retreat and defend.”
Without waiting for Nie Bingchen to speak, Le Zhengchi nodded and said, “We’ll do as you say.”
Ye Qiubai nodded.
Seeing this, Lin Zhinan said, “Alright, when the sun sets and we see you attacking, we will attack. Do you understand?”
They nodded.
Then, Ye Qiubai led the people of Helcrown City to hide outside the eastern city wall.
He looked at their backs.
Nie Bingchen frowned and said, “Why should we let them command us?”
Le Zhengchi glanced at Nie Bingchen. “If you can think of a better way, then you can be the commander.”
Nie Bingchen was humiliated and shut his mouth with an ugly expression.
Chen Hui arrived beside Le Zhengchi and saw Su Muyou, Lin Zhinan, and the others surrounding Ye Qiubai.
He couldn’t help but wonder, “Who exactly is this person? To make the eldest daughter of the Su family and Lin Zhinan of the Spirit Immortal Palace follow him willingly?”
The eldest daughter of the Su family, Su Muyou.
Lin Zhinan, the think tank of the Spirit Immortal Palace.
Which one of them was not an extremely powerful figure?
Even Chen Hui had to be polite to them.
Le Zhengchi held his zither with both hands and said indifferently, “This person is at the Intermediate Stage of the Blood Transformation Realm, but he can defeat Gu Xi, who is at the Intermediate Stage of the Turbid Immortal Realm.”
Chen Hui was shocked!
An Intermediate Stage Blood Transformation Realm expert defeated an Intermediate Stage Turbid Immortal Realm expert, Gu Xi?
Who was Gu Xi?
He was a prodigy from the Spirit Immortal Palace!
His combat strength was comparable to his!
“Moreover, he also defeated me.” Le Zhengchi looked at Chen Hui indifferently and asked, “Now, do you still doubt that he’s qualified?”
Everyone looked helpless upon hearing this.
Chen Hui nodded solemnly. “If that’s the case, then he’s qualified to stand in the middle of that group of people.”
The Blood Transformation Realm could reach this level.
Defeating Gu Xi and Le Zhengchi, even he might not be his match!
However, why had he never heard of such a monster before?
“Alright, adjust your state. When the sun sets, attack immediately.”
“Miao Bangdao, always pay attention to the other party’s movements!”
With that, Le Zhengchi sat cross-legged on the ground.
On the other side, Ye Qiubai and the others had already arrived 50 kilometers away. They stood here and looked at the distant Purgatory City.
Mu Fusheng said from the side, “The other party might have a Dharma treasure that can suppress the Heavenly Lightning Escape Talisman, so we can’t continue fighting!”
“Besides, I have a bad feeling about this.”
Hearing Mu Fusheng’s solemn words, Ye Qiubai and Blackie looked at each other.
Then, he said, “When did you feel that it was no longer dangerous?”
Mu Fusheng:”…”
