Supreme Conceited Emperor

C337 Broken City



C337 Broken City

Early morning the next day, Su Jue arrived outside Cloud City on time.    

    

At this time, the Knifeblade Legion had already gathered at the bottom of Cloud City.    

    

Cloud City was the defensive city of Lin Yuan Manor of the Four Prefectures of the Western Regions. It was also the only way to reach Lin Yuan City.    

    

From afar, they saw a black city wall that was over a hundred feet tall, and white ripples were circulating around the city wall.    

    

Cloud City was different from ordinary cities. Ordinary city walls were constructed from ordinary stone, and there were no spell formations on them.    

    

The city walls of Cloud City were all constructed with fine iron, and there were even complicated formations laid out on them.    

    

With such solid walls and formations protecting the city, it would be extremely difficult for outsiders to capture the city.    

    

"Su Jue, before you came, we had already gone to call for a fight. However, this Cloud City clearly has a legion of ten thousand people, and the guards are not weak either, yet they still don't want to come out and fight us," Shentu Jun said as he looked at Su Jue.    

    

Su Jue laughed. As early as when he was at the rubble, he knew that the Western Region's tactic was to delay them.    

    

He had expected Cloud City to drag it out as long as it could last.    

    

"Su Jue, I suggest using our military achievements to exchange for the Sky Fire Pearl. Otherwise, we won't be able to break through this Yun City!" Tang Zhitian said.    

    

Su Jue shook his head. Although his army's achievements had increased to 400,000 after the battle with the fog forest, the Sky Fire Pearl was too expensive.    

    

One Heavenly Fire Bead cost 200 thousand, four hundred thousand can only be exchanged for two.    

    

It was impossible for two Heavenly Fire Pearls to break through the defense of the city wall.    

    

So even if he exchanged them, it wouldn't be worth it. He still wanted to accumulate military merits and build himself a war chariot.    

    

"There's no need, just shout and give them an hour to think about it. Attack after an hour." Su Jue said to Tang Zhitian who was beside him.    

    

Tang Zhitian frowned, who knew what Su Jue was planning, then followed Shentu Jun and the rest out of the city.    

    

"City Lord of Cloud City, Feng Linghan, please come out and answer."    

    

Shentu Jun's loud voice came out.    

    

Not long later, a man wearing a golden robe walked out from the city walls.    

    

"Central Region juniors, no need to speak any nonsense. If you want to attack our Yun City, bring out your abilities. Otherwise, scram!" The person that Shentu Jun called Feng Linghan said disdainfully.    

    

"We, Marshal Su, have said that we will give you one hour to consider. If you do not surrender, we will attack after one hour!" After Shentu Jun finished speaking, he, Tang Zhitian and the rest returned to the great army.    

    

"This Feng Linghan is a warrior with a cultivation at the sixth level of Star Treading Realm, his strength is strong, although we have a stiff body and a Gu general, I'm afraid they are unable to pose a threat to him, since they have an advantage in the city, furthermore we do not know if there are any other Star Treading Realm warriors in the city." Tang Zhitian frowned.    

    

"Brother Tang, you mean we should give up on attacking?" Shentu Jun asked.    

    

Tang Zhitian cast his gaze at Su Jue, and said: "Then let's see what the commander has in mind."    

    

Su Jue laughed and said, "The reason why cities are so easy to defend and hard to attack is because of their powerful walls and formations, as long as you can break through these thick walls."    

    

"That's right. But how are we to break through this city wall?"    

    

"I have my own ways to break through the city walls, but first I have to figure out the defenses of this city, in case there are too many casualties." Su Jue said.    

    

was overjoyed. After being with Su Jue for so long, he knew very well that as long as Su Jue said that there was a way, there was definitely a way.    

    

"Earlier, we went to find out that there are at least 300 fire dragon crossbows and more than 20 war chariots in Cloud City. However, as long as they don't come out of the city to fight, then the war chariots won't be of much use. As long as we prepare for the fire dragon crossbow, everything will be fine!" Shentu Jun said.    

    

Su Jue nodded, three hundred Fire Dragon Crossbows was indeed a big problem.    

    

"In that case, I will exchange all of my military achievements for chariots. When the city gates are broken, I will use chariots to clear the way."    

    

"Sure!" Everyone added.    

    

With his consciousness sinking into the main hall, Su Jue immediately exchanged for two low grade chariots.    

    

One low level chariot was worth one hundred and fifty thousand troops, two chariots for a total of three hundred thousand, the remaining hundred thousand Su Jue s were all exchanged for the fire dragon arrows.    

    

"Now we also have eleven low level chariots and one intermediate level chariot. As long as the city is broken, then we can rely on twelve chariots to send the Knifeblade Legion's elites into the city." Shentu Jun excitedly looked at the dozens of chariots on the ground and said.    

    

Su Jue calculated, one low level chariot could hold about twenty people while the middle level chariot could hold about fifty. That way, he could have the strongest two hundred or so people in the Knifeblade Legion enter the city and attack from the inside and outside. He did not believe that this Yun City would not lose.    

    

"An hour has already passed."    

    

said after he finished arranging the candidates for the chariot.    

    

Su Jue nodded his head and then led the group to the front of the army.    

    

The great army slowly moved. After half an incense stick of time, they were less than ten miles away from Cloud City.    

    

"I'll go first. When you see the city walls break, start your assault."    

    

After Su Jue instructed Tang Zhitian and Xiao Yunfeng, he unfurled Zhu Queyi and flew into the air, arriving above Cloud City.    

    

"Shoot him into a hornet's nest." Feng Linghan looked at Su Jue who was in the air and said.    

    

"Hua!"    

    

In an instant, dozens of fire dragon arrows shot toward Su Jue from above the city walls.    

    

Su Jue smiled faintly as he covered his entire body.    

    

boom boom boom *    

    

A terrifying explosion rang out. Whether it was Yun City or Knifeblade Legion, both sides nervously looked at Su Jue, who was in the sky.    

    

"Buzz!"    

    

In the next moment, the gigantic Zhu Queyi once again unfolded it. Su Jue still carried that faint smile on his face, and his eyes were filled with provocation.    

    

He wished that Feng Linghan would waste all the Fire Dragon Arrow on him, he was not afraid of the Fire Dragon Arrow at all.    

    

"These wings are actually so terrifying." Feng Linghan said as he looked at this scene in shock.    

    

"Hmph, Mayor, let me tear this bastard apart!" A tall and sturdy man looked at Feng Linghan and said.    

    

Feng Linghan shook his head, and said: "Don't care about him, if he wants to look, let him have a good look."    

    

"Don't care about me!"    

    

Su Jue smiled slightly, and then began to circle around Cloud City fearfully.    

    

"Indeed, there are a lot of fire dragon crossbows. However, the most concentrated place is above the city gate, so let's go to this place."    

    

After making up his mind, Su Jue's figure stopped above the main entrance of the city wall.    

    

"Feng Linghan, I am giving you one last chance. Open the door and surrender! Su Jue looked at Feng Linghan and said.    

    

Su Jue, don't think that just because you killed Li Changhe that there's no one left in our Western Regions. If you want to break through my Cloud City, go back and cultivate for a hundred years. " Feng Linghan said in extreme disdain.    

    

"Is that so?"    

    

Su Jue laughed in disdain and took out a black and white bead.    

    

This pearl was the pearl that he obtained from absorbing all the Nether Energy within the fog forest from the golden acupoints of the Sun God Tree.    

    

"Haha, just one bead?" Feng Linghan laughed out loud.    

    

So at the same time, Tang Zhitian and the rest frowned.    

    

Just by a single bead, it was possible to break out of the city, even if it was the Sky Fire Pearl.    

    

"That's right, with just this bead."    

    

With that said, Su Jue cast his gaze towards his pearl.    

    

Although it would be a waste to use this pearl here, his plan would not succeed unless he destroyed Cloud City.    

    

As he thought of this, Su Jue no longer hesitated; a strand of star power entered into the pearl.    

    

"Buzz!"    

    

At this moment, the pearl suddenly vibrated.    

    

Su Jue immediately threw the bead below the city gate while he himself floated up high in the air, stopping.    

    

After a while, there was still no response.    

    

"Haha, Su Jue, are you joking here?" Feng Linghan laughed.    

    

The people of Knifeblade Legion who were prepared to attack also revealed doubtful expressions.    

    

Did something happen?    

    

"Boom!"    

    

However, the next moment, as if the sky had fallen and the earth had fallen, there was a loud sound. Everyone was temporarily deaf at this moment.    

    

The black and white light covered the sky and the sun, while the earth was torn apart.    

    

When the light dissipated, in front of everyone's eyes, the ten miles long black wall of Cloud City had been cut into two halves. A huge crack, over a hundred zhang in width, appeared in the middle of the gate.    

    

For a moment, everyone was shocked speechless.    

    

Yun City's side did not react at all, and the Knifeblade Legion had even forgotten to attack.    

    

This scene was too shocking.    

    

What kind of power could cause a steel wall that was hundreds of feet high and protected by a spell formation to become like this?    

    

Even Su Jue did not expect the power of this bead to be so great.    

    

"Kill!"    

    

After ten breaths, Xiao Yunfeng was the first to wake up from his shock.    

    

With the word "kill", eleven low levelled chariots under the lead of Shentu Jun started rushing towards Yun City, with Knifeblade Legion following closely behind.    

    

"Fire Dragon Crossbow ready!"    

    

On the city wall, Feng Linghan's face was pale, with a look of horror in his eyes.    

    

He really did not understand what Su Jue's pearl was.    

    

What was even more terrifying was whether Su Jue still had a second pellet!    

    

If there was a second one, he would really admit defeat.    

    

Under Feng Linghan's command, fire dragon arrows rained down from above the city walls.    

    

And with the protection of the chariot, the effect of the Fire Dragon Arrow was not very great.    

    

"Kill!"    

    

At this moment, shouts of battle rang out from within the Cloud City. The tall and sturdy man from before had led a pair of approximately 3000 warriors to charge out.    

    

The great battle instantly erupted.    

    

At the same time, Hei Zuo also floated up to the sky.    

    

"Su Jue, this Feng Linghan is extremely strong, you alone are not enough to deal with him." Hei Zuo looked at Su Jue and said.    

    

Su Jue nodded his head, although he had the Innate Invisible Gu, he would never borrow it, because Ye Xinrou's and Tang Xingyue's safety was also extremely important.    

    

But Feng Linghan was not someone that could be dealt with just relying on his body.    

    

"Hei Zuo, it's actually you!"    

    

Just then, Feng Linghan arrived in the sky.    

    

"City Lord Feng, you did not expect this to happen, did you?" Hei Zuo's tone of voice was not polite, the two of them had obviously had conflicts in the past.    

    

"Hmph, you traitor!" Feng Linghan scolded.    

    

Hei Zuo said disdainfully: "I am not a person from the Western Regions, and the Guardian fog forest only has his eyes on the resources there. These past few years, I have also increased the number of medicinal pellets that the Western Regions has given you, so it is not that I have let you down."    

    

"A traitor is a traitor, damn it!"    

    

Feng Linghan bellowed as a fiery red spear appeared in his hand, sweeping towards Hei Zuo.    

    

The two of them soon began to fight.    

    

However, in less than half an incense's time, Hei Zuo was already at a disadvantage.    

    

Without any hesitation, Su Jue released the [General].    

    

Su Jue, do you think that you only need to have a rigid army?!    

    

With that said, he only heard Feng Linghan's loud shout, and in the next moment, a troop of soldiers that were exactly the same as Su Jue appeared in the sky.
