King of Creation Chapter 2127 - 2112: Massacre of the City?

One cannot roam the Jianghu without taking a blade.

Generals inevitably perish on the battlefield!

Since they’ve joined the military and entered the battlefield, everyone can predict their own death.

Including Ye Zhen, the Marshal of the Heavenly Wave Army of North Sea, who is well aware that he cannot return with the entirety of his army.

Perhaps, by the conclusion of their defensive campaign, Ye Zhen can only bring back eighty percent of his warriors, or even sixty percent, or just half!

Both Ye Zhen and the other officers of the Heavenly Wave Army of North Sea, as well as the ordinary soldiers, have long been mentally prepared for this.

This is the responsibility and commitment of being a man!

If no one bleeds, parents and children at home cannot have a stable and peaceful life.

What they can do is try their best to survive, or kill as many Demon Clan demons as possible before dying!

If Ye Zhen’s soldiers die on the battlefield against the Demon Clan, even if it’s just on the battlefield, Ye Zhen, although sorrowful, can accept it.

A good man dies for a cause!

Then, Ye Zhen would avenge them.

However, the manner of the disappearance and death of the two patrol teams’ soldiers makes every bone in Ye Zhen’s body tremble!

This is the most humiliating treatment for a man, a passionate warrior!

"Grand Marshal... what happened?"

Seeing Ye Zhen lose control for the first time, Liu Feng felt his voice tremble, as Ye Zhen’s killing Qi rose like a wolf smoke of Essence Blood to the sky.

"See for yourself!"

Ye Zhen uttered these three words through gritted teeth, feeling that each word was soaked in blood.

"Transmit my military order! Command the First Army of Heavenly Wave of North Sea to attack immediately and raze the city!"

The veins on Ye Zhen’s forehead were throbbing violently, and he felt the next moment, they might burst out.

Just having finished reading the Jade Scroll, Liu Feng stood stupefied, eyes filled with intense killing intent, yet when hearing Ye Zhen say ’raze the city,’ he shuddered unexpectedly!

"Grand Marshal, you mustn’t!"

"Grand Marshal, calm your anger!"

"Grand Marshal, within this Flying Sky Fort, there are 500,000 border people, but the culprit is only the Fortress Lord Shan Wei!

Even if there are accomplices, it’s enough to punish those who committed crimes, but you cannot raze the city, Grand Marshal, this is...."

Ye Zhen waved his hand, stopping Liu Feng’s anxious persuasion, "I understand, just overwhelmed by the vicious breath just now..."

Ye Zhen’s gaze was grim and icy, intimidating Liu Feng with its chilly feel, although it wasn’t directed at Liu Feng.

"Order the First Army and Third Central Army to surround the Flying Sky Fort, employ the sealing formation, lock down the void in all directions, without my orders, do not let a single person escape!"

Razing the city was a prior impulse in extreme anger by Ye Zhen.

True city razing is impossible.

As Liu Feng mentioned, even if there are accomplices in the Flying Sky Fort, many of the ordinary border people are innocent.

If they were Demon Clan, Ye Zhen wouldn’t hesitate to raze the city, but these border people are citizens of the Great Zhou Dynasty, razing the city is impossible.

Their disappearance and the fate of the Heavenly Wave Army of North Sea’s soldiers are unbearable for Ye Zhen to even think about.

"Order nearby Heavenly Patrol Divine General and Heavenly Patrol Divine Hunters to spare no effort to storm into Flying Sky Fort and save people!"

At the moment of issuing the command, amidst the sudden sound of wind and thunder, Ye Zhen’s figure shot like lightning towards the direction of Flying Sky Fort.

"Grand Marshal, the Fort Lord of Flying Sky Fort is Shan Zhengchun’s grandson." Niu Er shouted.

Ye Zhen, already dozens of miles out, heard Niu Er’s reminder, his gaze flickered, yet his figure did not pause at all.

Some things Ye Zhen could tolerate, but others he could not.

If Shan Wei, the grandson of Dingbian Fortress Lord, had only beaten his two patrol soldier teams, or instigated other conflicts, even serious bloody conflicts, Ye Zhen wouldn’t be as enraged.

However, Shan Wei has humiliated the virtuous warriors under Ye Zhen’s command!

Indeed, humiliated!

According to the intelligence that Niu Er gathered, the Flying Sky Fort Lord Shan Wei delights in young men, enjoying male beauty.

Causing much harm among border people within Flying Sky Fort.

Two days ago, during an outing, he spotted a good group from the patrol team of the Heavenly Wave Army of North Sea.

Each soldier under Ye Zhen’s Heavenly Wave Army of North Sea, is undoubtedly a majestic man.

Only, the environment nurtures the people.

In places like the Human Demon Battlefield, located in the west, the heat makes the heavens like a furnace, while the cold makes the wind like a knife, most men have coarse skin.

But the North Sea, by the sea, where sea winds are humid and the environment nourishing, even men have fair skin.

Shan Wei, this vile person, merely glanced at the two patrol team members of the Heavenly Wave Army of North Sea and lusted after them.

Subsequently, he specially had someone invite them, with the identity as the Fort Lord of Flying Sky Fort, to slightly alter their patrol route and take a tour within their Flying Sky Fort, along with providing pointers on the Fortress Defense.

This excuse was almost perfect!

Because according to the military discipline of the Heavenly Wave Army of North Sea, any unit is absolutely forbidden to accept any food or banquet invitation from outside the Heavenly Wave Army of North Sea.

Facing an invitation they cannot refuse, they must report to the higher-ups.

But merely changing their patrol route slightly, offering pointers on the fortress defense, even Ye Zhen would unlikely refuse.

The two patrol teams entered one after another, entered the fort surrounded by Shan Wei’s confidants, and the results are imaginable.

Most soldiers were slaughtered, a portion was directly devoured by Shan Wei’s mount, the Black Feather Honghu, leading to the traces found by Niu Er.

A dozen soldiers with handsome appearances were controlled and imprisoned by Shan Wei, undergoing relentless abuse.

According to Niu Er’s information, since those dozens of soldiers from the Heavenly Wave Army of North Sea were brought into the residence, the Fort Lord Shan Nan of Flying Sky Fort hadn’t left the residence once during this day and a half.

This is the cause for Ye Zhen’s near insane fury, and his desire to raze the city in anger.

The virtuous warriors of the Heavenly Wave Army of North Sea suffered such humiliation....

In just a few breaths, Ye Zhen appeared like lightning at the gate of Flying Sky Fort.

Perhaps due to the intimidating wolf-smoke killing Qi from Ye Zhen earlier, Flying Sky Fort, within just a few breaths of time, raised the alert light screen, a large number of militia climbed onto the city walls, vigilantly observing the distance.

Ye Zhen quickly counted, in this moment alone, there were over 20,000 militiamen rushing onto the walls, with more continuously climbing.

More shocking than that, these militia were equipped with standard weapons, nearly everyone equipped with Wind-Fire Crossbows, albeit the older models from Great Zhou Dynasty.

Ye Zhen even saw Flame Spirit Burst Demon Crossbows, with those militia wearing complex outer garments and underneath, uniformed standard armor from Great Zhou Dynasty.

Ye Zhen’s Divine Sense determined these standard armors were definitely not inferior to prior equipment of the Heavenly Wave Army of North Sea.

Moreover, these militia moved swiftly, occupied positions precisely, with fierce determination.

If deployed outside, they’d certainly perform no worse than regular troops.

This power made Ye Zhen even more serious.

But just a single small Dock Castle revealed such strength; imagine the entire Dingbian Fortress?

However serious Ye Zhen felt, he didn’t care at all!

The burning rage flooding Ye Zhen’s scalp, ready to erupt.

"Who goes there?"

"This is Flying Sky Fort, halt!"

"Fail to stop, face our...."

The militia’s loud, fierce shouts echoed, yet responded only by the roar of thunder!

A small Five Elements Mixed Yuan Divine Thunder, coursing with Five-colored Spiritual Light, descended directly, pulverizing the newly raised alert light screen.

Furthermore, the area within a kilometer of the descending Thunder Light transformed into scorched earth.

At the instant the piercing alarm sounded, the shadow of Strong Wind flitted streaking across the void, Ye Zhen seized the fastest path through the massive breach in the alert light screen, dashed into the Flying Sky Fort, heading straight for the midst of the city, towards Flying Sky Fort.
