Turns Out, I’m In A Villain Clan! Chapter 636 Opening the Gates of War
Previously on Turns Out, I’m In A Villain Clan!...
Yu Feiyan did not move immediately and neither did Yu Wenzhao.
The two simply watched each other from opposite sides of the battlefield.
One stood before the Frost Lily Pavilion.
The other sat upon his throne aboard the flagship.
Both appeared completely calm and completely confident.
Neither seemed worried in the slightest.
The ongoing assault continued without interruption.
Attack after attack crashed into the Frost Lily Pavilion's Grand Guardian Formation.
Violent explosions echoed endlessly yet neither side paid much attention to it.
Because everyone understood that this was merely the beginning.
The true battle would only begin after the formation fell.
The Heaven Suppression Sect's Earth Immortal stood with his hands behind his back.
Beside him stood the Crimson Thunder Palace's Earth Immortal.
Neither had any intention of participating in the assault against the formation.
There was no need.
The formation would eventually fall under the combined efforts of so many cultivators.
Why waste their strength now?
Their true opponents were elsewhere.
The two Earth Immortals occasionally glanced toward the Frost Lily Pavilion.
More specifically, toward the Frost Lily Pavilion's own Earth Immortal ancestor.
Once the defensive formation was broken, the real battle would begin.
Although they held a numerical advantage of two against one, neither dared to be negligent.
Earth Immortal Realm experts were not existences that could be underestimated.
At their level, a single mistake could prove fatal.
Thus, both sides remained patient.
Hours gradually passed.
The sun slowly shifted across the sky.
The endless bombardment never ceased.
Yet the Frost Lily Pavilion's Grand Guardian Formation continued to endure.
At first, many cultivators were excited then got impatient.
Then gradually they became bored.
The battlefield gradually entered a strange stalemate.
Yet strangely enough, neither Yu Wenzhao nor Yu Feiyan appeared concerned.
Both continued waiting calmly.
As though each possessed complete confidence in whatever was about to happen.
Eventually, Yu Feiyan suddenly stood up.
The movement attracted quite a few gazes, but no one paid it much attention.
Yu Feiyan calmly glanced toward the cultivators under her command, then she spoke.
"Everyone, prepare yourselves."
The moment those words left her mouth, the cultivators belonging to Yu Feiyan's faction visibly straightened.
Their eyes lit up.
Their spirits rose.
Finally!
For days now, they had been eager to fight.
Originally, they had followed Yu Feiyan with the intention of attacking the Frost Lily Pavilion.
Instead, before they could even draw their weapons, their Princess had somehow convinced the Fourth Princess to join her side.
As a result, they had spent the past several days doing absolutely nothing.
Now, however, things were finally different.
Their Princess had finally given an order.
Which meant action was coming.
Excitement immediately spread through their ranks.
Weapons appeared.
Auras rose.
Countless cultivators began preparing themselves.
Yu Feiyan looked toward Yu Qingya.
"Fourth Sister."
Yu Qingya turned toward her.
"What is it?"
Yu Feiyan smiled.
"In a while, deactivate the formation when I give a signal."
The moment those words left her mouth, Yu Qingya's expression changed slightly.
Even several Frost Lily Pavilion elders widened their eyes.
Deactivate the formation?
Now?
The entire reason they had been able to resist was because of the Grand Guardian Formation.
Without it, they would immediately be exposed to Yu Wenzhao's overwhelming forces.
Yu Qingya frowned.
"Ninth Sister."
Her voice grew serious.
"This is not a good idea."
She glanced toward Yu Wenzhao's army.
"The Third Brother has many powerful cultivators under his command. There are nearly fifteen Immortal Realm experts."
"Without the formation, we will immediately lose our greatest advantage."
Unlike before, Yu Qingya did not blindly agree.
This was war.
The lives of countless disciples were involved.
Even if she trusted Yu Feiyan, she could not simply ignore such concerns.
The surrounding elders immediately nodded in agreement.
Clearly, they shared the same opinion.
However, Yu Feiyan merely smiled.
There was not the slightest worry on her face.
"I know."
Yu Qingya looked at her.
Yu Feiyan casually took another sip of tea.
Then she spoke calmly.
"Don't worry. I have a plan."
The confidence in her voice was absolute.
For some reason, the moment those words left her mouth, the surrounding tension seemed to lessen slightly.
Yu Qingya stared at her for several moments.
In the end, she sighed softly.
After a brief silence, Yu Qingya nodded reluctantly.
"Very well!"
Her answer immediately caused several elders to become anxious yet before they could speak, Yu Qingya raised her hand.
The elders immediately fell silent.
If Yu Qingya had already made her decision, there was little they could do to change it.
Meanwhile, on the opposite side of the battlefield, Yu Wenzhao observed the entire exchange from afar.
Although he could not hear their conversation, he could tell that something had changed.
His eyes narrowed slightly.
A faint sense of unease surfaced within his heart once more.
And for reasons he could not explain, the sight of Yu Feiyan smiling calmly made that unease grow even stronger.
On Yu Wenzhao's side, many cultivators had already begun to assume that the situation would continue like this for a while longer.
The Frost Lily Pavilion would hide behind its Grand Guardian Formation.
They would continue attacking.
Eventually, the formation would weaken.
Then collapse.
After that, the true battle would begin.
However, the next development completely caught them off guard.
Yu Feiyan suddenly raised her hand.
Her calm voice echoed across the battlefield.
"Now."
The moment the word left her mouth, Yu Qingya immediately responded.
The massive Grand Guardian Formation that had protected the Frost Lily Pavilion for hours suddenly began to dim.
Within moments, the formation was completely deactivated.
The battlefield froze.
Even the endless bombardment seemed to pause momentarily.
Countless eyes widened in disbelief.
"What?!"
"They deactivated their formation?!"
"Why would they do that?"
"Is it a trap?"
"Have they gone mad?"
Confused cries erupted everywhere.
Even many Frost Lily Pavilion disciples felt their hearts skip a beat.
Although they had received prior instructions, seeing the formation actually disappear still made them nervous.
On the opposite side, many of Yu Wenzhao's subordinates were equally stunned.
The development was simply too strange.
At the center of the army, Yu Wenzhao's eyes narrowed.
He did not immediately issue an attack order.
Instead, he maintained his caution.
His gaze locked firmly onto Yu Feiyan.
The Ninth Princess still stood there calmly, not a trace of panic appeared on her face.
If this was truly a mistake, why wasn't she worried?
If this was desperation, why did she seem so relaxed?
No!
There had to be something else.
Thus, Yu Wenzhao remained patient.
The army behind him also refrained from moving recklessly.
The entire battlefield entered an awkward silence.
Yu Feiyan smiled.
The next moment, her voice thundered across the battlefield.
"Kill them!"
Boom!
Countless cultivators from Yu Feiyan's faction erupted into motion.
For days they had been waiting.
For days they had been suppressing their battle intent.
Now they no longer needed to hold back.
A deafening roar erupted from their ranks.
"Kill!"
Thousands upon thousands of cultivators surged forward.
At the same time, the Frost Lily Pavilion's forces also moved.
Yu Qingya's eyes turned cold.
Her sword appeared in her hand.
"Attack!"
The Frost Lily Pavilion disciples immediately followed.
The elders soared into the sky.
Formation masters abandoned their defensive positions.
The entire sect transformed from a fortress into an army.
Two massive forces charged forward simultaneously.
The sight stunned countless spectators.
No one had expected the defenders to launch the first offensive.
They were actually charging directly toward Yu Wenzhao's superior army.
