Chapter 661: Months Later

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

“These Gantian Mountain people should all just die!”

A furious shout sounded out from within a Cloud Crossing Carriage. This carriage looked really ordinary but it was luxuriously decorated inside. A 30-year-old middle-aged man was furiously looking out.

At this moment, on the wide earthen path, there were numerous carriages that were swiftly traveling.

It was the dead of night and the middle-aged man was looking at those carriages in front of him.

...Dozens of days ago, these Cloud Crossing Carriages were his property.

However, today they were occupied by some commoners who ate, drink and excused themselves on it.

This wasn’t much. However, when he thought back to how he had to bury and throw huge amounts of riches and jewels due to a lack of carriages, the middle-aged man felt extreme heartache.

He was a merchant from Yangye City who was really rich. Although Huizhou was really chaotic, relying on his 1,000 family generals, they were able to live a good life.

However, all this was totally shattered half a month ago.

First, was the news that the Night Demons were invading, which terrified them. It was said that this Alien Race loved to eat people.

However, before the Night Demons even arrived, there were hundreds of thousands of troops from Gantian Mountain who swept over from the east.

They attacked cities all over, chasing all people regardless of wealth and health toward the west.

The Yangye City Lord was naturally unwilling. However, this army just took a day to siege the city and kill the City Lord.

In the end, they entered his home and occupied all his horses and carriages.

The strong teens walked themselves whilst the elderly sat on carriages.

A flame jumped into his field of sight and got closer to the carriage. The huge fire was more and more blinding. It was really strong; from half a mile out, one could feel the waves of heat. However, it didn’t give one a feeling of warmth at all.

One didn’t even need to look and knew that it was a mountain-like pile of grain that was being burned.

Actually, most people weren’t willing to leave their homes, even if they were being forced by those evil people.

The Gantian Mountain people weren’t rough, snatching the grain and burning it. They only left them half a month of rations. If they didn’t leave, then it was up to them to see how they could survive the hunger.

He was the same. Thinking back to how his family’s seven million stone capacity granaries were turned to dust, he felt despair.

At this moment, he could hear many people crying out and scolding.

However, the soldiers by the fires weren’t fazed. They stood there coldly with sharp weapons in their hands to stop these people from getting close.

These scenes were really familiar. Dozens of days ago that was what happened to him.

“Tsk! Why didn’t they fight to the death with them?”

He spat on the ground, the hatred in his heart grew stronger.

However, he only dared to say those words. Although he had 1,000 family soldiers, he still didn’t dare to fight back.

The Gantian Mountain soldiers were all vicious people. As long as one fought back, they would definitely retaliate in an even sharper manner.

He saw several examples on the way, all of whom had their families wiped out, making him feel fortunate.

At this moment, he was shocked. Several cold gazes looked over toward him.

Frowning, without even thinking, he knew what was happening.

It was those people back from Lianyun Island...

When the Yangye City Lord said he wanted to send elites to the east to do hard labor, where they would be paid high salaries...

As a merchant, he naturally knew what was going on. Out of the thousands of servants in his family, he was asked to send hundreds. At the start, he acted like he didn’t know anything, sending the servants who were arrogant and untamed.

He didn’t expect that those people could return.

They wanted to kill him?

The middle-aged man laughed coldly and shrunk his head back into the carriage.

Following this, a voice trembled and spoke, “The Gantian treat people so cruelly, going against the path! Why isn’t such a violent ruler punished? Great Shang Emperor, please send troops to conquer this place and stop the chaos! We are immoral which gave rise to such a violent ruler, are the heavens punishing us...”

Looking out toward the voice, it was an old Confucian who was nagging.

The middle-aged man laughed coldly. He knew that this person was a Central Continent Confucian, it was said that he was also a scholar. He was invited by Yangye City Lord to spread the morals and values of Confucian teachings to come to Huizhou.

During these few years he accepted many studies but there was no change in Yangye City. Instead, he became richer and richer. Today it was all gone, in a similar situation as him.

Naturally, the Gantian Mountian Monster King was a violent ruler. However, it was just wishful thinking if one wanted the Great Shang Emperor to send troops.

Shaking his head, the middle-aged man’s brow furrowed as he sighed.

It was now time to see whether those cities in the west could survive.

When Gantian Mountain’s army of 300,000 came from the east over a month ago, no one cared. No one thought that such a situation would occur.

From east to west, there were dozens of battles and each battle they won. Like falling leaves in autumn, they occupied two provinces. They also had close to a million surrendered troops.

The Huizhou City Lords didn’t care at first, in the end, they panicked and started working together.

However, they were still unable to block off and were forced to retreat.

Yangye City was broken up due to the alliance army failing.

There were also many who were looking forward to the three sects coming out. What was shocking was that, to date, there were no signs of those sect disciples. Even those from their families were nowhere to be seen.

There was a 2,000,000-strong alliance army in the west. However, in his eyes they didn’t have much of a chance of winning.

“Ren Tianxing...”

Muttering this name, the middle-aged man sighed and frowned.

At this time, the Commander of Gantian Mountain was said to be Zong Gang who was really famous in Donglin.

The one that left him the deepest impression was him instead.

This person was the Front Army Main General of Gantian Mountain. In this month, the many battles were led by him.

He fought using minority against the majority, the 150,000 under him went uncontested everywhere.

He personally saw the defeat of the Yangye City Lord.

At that time, he was shocked. Especially those 20,000 Sword Soldiers wearing red armor and 20,000 Crossbow Soldiers who were all so clean and sharp.

500,000 troops were defeated swiftly, some abandoning their armor and there were tens of thousands who died.

It was because of this, that he didn’t fight back when his grains were being burned.

Now there were already six provinces that were crushed. Although the west had 2,000,000 troops, they would most probably lose.

He should’ve felt depressed but for some reason he was gloating.

My business was destroyed so how can yours remained untouched?

※※※※

The current Ren Tianxing didn’t think that people would have such dark thoughts when they thought about him.

He was frowning and looking forward.

Numerous army tents were densely packed on the hills in front.

With six people in a tent there were at least 700,000 troops.

The Huizhou Army wasn’t as weak as what people in the future mentioned. After all, it had suffered chaos for years and only the strong could survive.

In his eyes, the soldiers here were much stronger than those from Great Shang.

People thought Great Shang was strong but they didn’t know that due to peace, those border troops were elite but those within were all rotten.

Naturally, he wouldn’t care much about this 700,000 if these were normal times.

However, at this moment there were deep moats and high platforms. One archer every ten steps, one crossbow every three. The entire camp was like a porcupine.

For a full two days, the 700,000 alliance army defended here and didn’t come out to fight with him outside.

No matter how calm he was, he couldn’t help but feel anxious.

What was happening on the side of the Ruler, could he sustain? Could his troops rush back in time?

If what he predicted was correct, the final battle of Seven Cloud Mountain should be soon!

If he delayed more time here, he would be too late.

This should have been the final battle but he was blocked here, unable to proceed.

It wasn’t that he couldn’t forcefully attack...

He looked out to the left to see 20,000 red heavy armor Sword Soldiers and soldiers carrying large crossbows who were lined up in an orderly manner.

Their armor and clothing were clean and orderly but it gave one a thick blood aura. The fresh red armor was like blood, going through tens of battles and killing millions, winning all wars before it was able to have this kind of invincible dominance and thick killing energy.

This was the Big Dipper Sword Soldiers and Big Dipper Crossbow Soldiers, formed not long ago.

They were said to come from Ancient Qin and were stronger than Wind Splitting Mo Knife Warriors from Gantian Mountain.

He didn’t expect that Kong Yao would throw these troops, which were only weaker than the Blood Cloud Cavalry, to him.

However, at that time, these four Towns of so-called Elite troops were relaxed and crumbly, apart from morale, they had nothing else.

He really spent a lot of effort to be able to train them to such a standard in just two months.

If he used the Big Dipper Sword Soldiers to break through, he would be able to forcefully break the camp.

However, that would cause heavy casualties to them.

Based on what Kong Yao wanted, she didn’t want heavy casualties.

Ren Tianxing thought back to Zhang Huai.

That day when the West Conquering Army was sent out, although Kong Yao made Zong Gang the Commander, she also brought Zhang Huai over to be the assistant.

This act touched him and made him fight valiantly each battle.

To command a huge army, to siege cities and go up against millions wasn’t his strength.

With Zhang Huai giving advice and making plans, it placed one at ease.

It was the same these few days. Zong Gang was the Commander but he was more like the arrowhead as compared to him being Front Army Main General, not caring about anything and attacking west.

It was Zhang Huai who was commanding the battlefield from the back.

Just half a day ago, that fellow said he wanted to convince the people of Huizhou to surrender. Following this, he didn’t bother with everyone else’s persuasions and ran into the camp alone. Who knew what had happened to him now?
