Chapter 1001 1001 - Overconfidence



No vassal state they passed could defend against them!

Moreover, there were even a number of Martial Grandmasters that held the fort within the allied army; it was just that they rarely showed themselves.

Right at the very end of the allied army, a dilapidated city that was bloodstained and billowed with smoke could be vaguely seen.

Rising Sun City of Great North Country was already reduced to ruins.

Corpses were strewn all over the city and there were rivers of blood!

The City Lord of Rising Sun City did not surrender and stood to fight.

As such, when the city was breached, the prince of the invading Great West Dynasty ordered to slaughter every single last person in the city with no survivors!

The cities would be slaughtered if they did not surrender!

Along the way, the allied army trampled over countless cities, leaving nothing but mountains of corpses and rivers of blood.

This was an apocalyptic disaster for the citizens and living beings of the world!

Even if there were mortals that were indignant and struggled or grumbled, nothing changed.

Some of them chose to escape.

However, how difficult was it to escape?

How could mortals escape the pursuit of martial artists with their fragile bodies.

Even if they were lucky enough to escape the hunt of the martial artists, how long could those mortals survive in this chaotic era where there were bandits and hoodlums all around?

If they hid in the forests, even beasts that were not sentient would most likely be able to kill them, let alone spirit beasts and demons.

Their fates were sealed.

The allied army crossed Iron Mountain Range that was not far away and soon, the same fate would befall the small countryside town.

The princes of the Great East, West, and South Dynasties were gathered on the largest and most majestic spirit vessel, surrounded by Martial Master guards.

The defense was tight!

The three of them were in a leisure chat with their wine glasses raised merrily.

The prince of Great West was fat and when he smiled, his eyes narrowed into a thin slit. They shone with a gold glint as he said lustfully, "I heard from a secret report that the Young North Miss is in San Lorn City right now. As long as we cross that valley in front and another few small towns, we'll arrive at San Lorn City!"

"Fufu, you're moved, Brother Shi?" The prince of Great West was a refined man who asked with a fake smile.

"Heh!"

The prince of Great East laughed. "The young miss can be considered as a peerless beauty and it won't be too much to say that she's the number one beauty of our four dynasties of the North Region. Who wouldn't want a taste of that?"

"What's even rarer is that she's the Empress of Great North. If I can make her submit, the feeling would be…" The prince of Great South's body was robust and he sneered and smacked his lips.

The prince of Great East smiled gently. "I'm not going to fight with you two. However, I heard that the princess has a younger sister who is also a beauty. She does interest me instead."

"Hahahaha!"

The three of them exchanged glances and laughed merrily.

"Although, the young empress might not stay in San Lorn City. If she continues retreating, we'll still have to chase her for quite a bit." The prince of Great East said darkly.

"No,"

The prince of Great West said calmly, "She is stubborn by nature. If not for the fact that she was injured previously and chose to retreat because the eldest prince of Great North took control temporarily, there is no way the Great North Dynasty would choose to give up on so much of their territory."

"But now, I heard that she's already awake. Given her character, she will definitely stand by San Lorn City and defend it steadfastly!"

"That's for the best!" The prince of Great South clapped and laughed.

The prince of Great North remarked with a smile, "In my opinion, the imperial court of Great North is already in a mess. Even if she is awake, the eldest prince of Great North will not want to relinquish his position so easily!"

"Hehe, there's no guarantee that they won't end up in internal strife. At that time, we'll be able to reap the rewards without even interfering! We'll capture the Empress of Great North alive and continue heading North to charge right into their nest!"

"Awesome!"

"Let's drink!"

The three princes sat on the deck under the starry night and chatted with vigor.

Suddenly, the troops at the front slowed down.

"Hmm?"

The prince of Great South frowned gently.

Not long after, a Martial Master streaked through the air. The moment he descended on the deck, he knelt on one knee.

"Princes, we have already arrived at Iron Mountain Range! It's late at night now and beasts wander the valley dangerously. Should we proceed and cross it or make a detour?"

The prince of Great South rose and shouted, "Of course we cross it! Our allied army is mighty and invincible! How can a mere Iron Mountain Range stand in our way!"

"Go on,"

The prince of Great East waved his arm. "This mountain range isn't some ancient forest. At the most, there are only some Martial Master spirit demons. There aren't even any fiend demons. What are you afraid of?"I think you should take a look at pandasnovel.com

The prince of Great West chuckled as well. "General Sun, you are indeed a little too cautious."

"If we cross a mountain range as such alone in the night, there's a chance we might get ambushed by the demons. However, given our mighty force, the demon beasts will want nothing more than to hide far away. What threat can there be?"

"Understood,"

General Sun nodded and turned to leave. He floated in midair and bellowed, "Continue forward!"

Bang! Boom! Boom!

The army moved together with a terrifying might!

Although the allied army had a few million troops, it was also nothing compared to the Iron Mountain Range which spanned hundreds of kilometers.

Not far behind the three princes, a skinny old man opened his eyes and gazed at the dark forest before them.

It was as though there was an ancient ferocious beast laying in ambush with its mouth wide open awaiting the group of them to send themselves to him!

The feeling arrived and disappeared almost instantaneously, like an impulse.

The skinny old man frowned slightly and shrugged it off. He then closed his eyes and returned to meditation.

The valley meandered around with ancient trees. Due to the low visibility, the army proceeded at a slow speed.

However, the allied army did not encounter any danger along the way!

The surroundings were quiet.

Everything went silent!

Not long after, the allied army had already crossed more than half of the Iron Mountain Range.

All the troops let down their guard.

The prince of Great South burst into laughter. "Indeed, it's as you had expected! All the beasts in this mountain range are too afraid to even appear! Hahaha!"

"Something isn't right!"

Suddenly, a voice sounded not far away.

The skinny old man had a grim expression and his glabella flashed, spreading his spirit consciousness slowly. "It's way too quiet! It's so quiet that it's sinister!"

Even if the demon beasts of the Iron Mountain Range were frightened into hiding, there was no way they wouldn't have encountered a single demon beast the entire way!

It was as though… all the creatures had hidden themselves a long time ago!

The surrounding air suddenly turned stale.

There was a deep killing intent shrouding the dark, sinister forest!

ƥandasnovel.com Pshew!

All of a sudden!

The sound of a sharp blade tearing through the air echoed.

Immediately, there was a boom!

The bow of the spirit vessel seemed to have been struck by something and exploded right in front of everyone!

The massive spirit vessel broke into parts and among the dozens of Martial Masters, some of them died on the spot!

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Cold lights flashed.

Sharp arrows burst forth from the dark forest before them one after another, arriving instantly and striking the spirit vessels in midair.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The spirit vessels exploded one after another!

Splintered limbs flew all over and the skies were stained red.

Some of the Martial Masters on the spirit vessels had not even managed to react before they were turned into blood mists by a tremendous power!

Debris of the vessels flew everywhere and when they landed in the crowd, some of the energy Condensation and Martial Knight martial artists who were not prepared were crushed to death.

The arrows were extremely fast and some of the martial artists present had already let their guard down a long time ago and could not react to it.

The allied army fell into chaos.

Although the remaining spirit vessels were not struck by the arrows, many Martial Masters were already frightened and abandoned the vessels to soar into the skies.

"Roar!"

"Howl!"

"Screech!"

All of a sudden!
