Chapter 138 The Angry Iron Wolf Emperor
Chapter 138 The Angry Iron Wolf Emperor
"Your Majesty, scouts from the Azure Scaled Eagle clan have discovered a mysterious army outside the capital, which appears to be the same human army!"
The rat-headed man rushed to the Iron Wolf Emperor's palace and said urgently.
"Ok?"
Upon hearing his words, the Iron Wolf Emperor jumped up from the dragon bed, ignoring the resentful look in the eyes of the human concubine on the bed, and his figure disappeared instantly.
In the blink of an eye, they arrived outside the palace.
"Is the news true?"
"Iron Wolf Emperor said with a frown."
"It's almost certainly true..."
The rat-headed man, his face equally melancholy, spoke.
"How many people are there on the other side?"
The Iron Wolf Emperor asked the question that concerned him most.
"According to the report from the Azure Scaled Eagle scouts, the enemy only has 30,000 men!"
The rat-headed man relayed the information gathered by the scouts.
Upon hearing his words, the Iron Wolf Emperor frowned and asked uncertainly, "Are you sure the enemy only has 30,000 men?"
The rat-headed man nodded solemnly; he hadn't believed the news when he first received it.
However, after careful and repeated confirmation, he only received this one answer.
The other side indeed only has 30,000 people.
However, these 30,000 people turned the entire Iron Wolf Dynasty into complete chaos!
"What a disgrace! A mere 30,000 men! My Iron Wolf Dynasty was utterly routed by an army of 30,000! If word gets out, the other dynasties will surely laugh at us!"
Upon receiving the rat-headed man's affirmation, the Iron Wolf Emperor immediately felt a sense of humiliation.
He roared to the sky.
"Issue my decree: order all armies within the capital to leave the city. I want those people to know what true power is! A mere 30,000 men dare to run wild in my Iron Wolf Dynasty? How much do they think they are of my Iron Wolf Dynasty!"
"Iron Wolf Emperor said through gritted teeth."
He had initially thought there were many of them on the other side!
He never expected that a mere 30,000 people would cause him so much anxiety.
"Your Majesty, this army has been able to run rampant in our Iron Wolf Dynasty for so long, it must be quite powerful. Isn't what we're doing a bit risky?"
"The rat-headed man said worriedly."
"What's there to be afraid of? No matter how strong he is, he only has 30,000 men. Right now, there are over a million troops gathered in the capital, all of them the elite of my Iron Wolf Dynasty. Are they no match for his 30,000 men?"
The Iron Wolf Emperor flicked his sleeves and roared angrily.
"Moreover, it's not just the main army; the Nascent Soul stage experts from various tribes will also be sent. I will make this human army and the forces behind them pay the price!"
A vicious glint flashed in the eyes of the Iron Wolf Emperor as he gritted his teeth and spoke.
"This... here!"
Although the rat-headed man still felt something was amiss, seeing the Iron Wolf Emperor's demeanor, it was clear he wouldn't listen to his words.
They had no choice but to agree.
At the same time, he also wondered if he was being too suspicious.
The opposing force only has 30,000 men; theoretically, they should be able to crush them.
However, for some reason, he had a bad feeling.
Soon, the Iron Wolf Emperor's order was relayed.
When the people of the various tribes in the capital learned that the mysterious and serious army numbered only 30,000, they were all extremely angry.
They had so many people, prepared for so long, and spent countless resources, only to find that the enemy had only 30,000 men.
This made them feel like they had been played.
Immediately, the crowd was outraged, all clamoring to make those arrogant humans pay the price.
Before long, the million-strong army in the capital had assembled and poured out of the capital in a chaotic manner, boarding flying boats and heading towards the direction of Huo Qubing and his men.
Meanwhile, Huo Qubing was leading his elite Imperial Guards rapidly toward the Iron Wolf capital.
A member of the Imperial Guard approached Huo Qubing and respectfully said, "General, news has just arrived that Generals Zhao Yun and Guan Yu, concerned for your safety, have also led their troops into the Iron Wolf Dynasty and are currently heading towards our location..."
"Oh? Hahaha!"
Huo Qubing laughed loudly: "They're too late! This general is about to march on the capital of the Iron Wolf Dynasty; the credit for destroying the country won't be theirs yet..."
"General, should we wait for Generals Zhao and Guan before launching a joint attack on the Iron Wolf capital?"
The deputy general standing to the side looked at Huo Qubing and asked.
"No need to wait for them. How can the mere Iron Wolf Dynasty stop the advance of my iron hooves!"
"Pass down the order: accelerate the advance! This general intends to host a banquet for Generals Zhao and Guan in the Iron Wolf capital..."
"Here!"
Soon, the elite Imperial Guards increased their speed again.
From a distance, all that could be seen was a red phantom flashing through the air.
It's impossible to see what it is at all.
Huo Qubing led his army at breakneck speed, and after an unknown period of time, a large group of figures suddenly appeared ahead.
Huo Qubing ordered a halt.
Look into the distance.
Countless demon armies surged toward them.
"Get ready to meet the enemy!"
Huo Qubing immediately gave the order.
The elite Imperial Guards quickly prepared for battle.
"Strange, instead of properly defending their capital, these demons dare to venture out of the city on their own initiative."
Huo Qubing asked in confusion.
"General, do they think we're easy to bully because we outnumber them?"
The lieutenant looked at the distant demon army, his eyes flashing with a chilling killing intent.
A meaningful smile appeared on Huo Qubing's face.
"This is truly a stroke of luck! Now that they've all come out, there's no need to go back. Give the order: Charge!"
"Here!"
The lieutenant said excitedly.
Huo Qubing pointed his spear at the sky and muttered incantations.
This is a secret lightning technique he learned from Murong Haoxuan, which can summon heavenly lightning.
Rumble~~
A loud bang echoed in the sky, and a thick bolt of lightning streaked across the heavens.
It landed directly in the midst of the demon army.
In an instant, countless demons were charred into charcoal by this lightning bolt.
"What's going on? Why is lightning striking?"
A demon general said with a look of surprise and doubt.
At the same time, he nervously looked around.
He was terrified that the next bolt of lightning would strike him.
Lightning, being the most yang and masculine of things, is a nightmare for countless cultivators, especially demon cultivators.
To fully transform into human form, they need to undergo the baptism of heavenly tribulation, which is arguably the thing they least want to face.
"Chief, look over there!"
A warrior from the Mighty Bull Clan pointed into the distance and said.
His eyes were filled with deep terror.
Chief Mighty Bull looked in the direction he was pointing, and his pupils suddenly contracted.
"Enemy attack! Prepare to engage!"
"The mighty bull chieftain shouted loudly."
His shout made the already chaotic demon army even more disorganized.
The people of each tribe were not subordinate to one another; they all obeyed only the orders of their respective tribal chiefs.
In a short time, various orders and commands were issued in the army.
The demon army was confused by the various orders and didn't know whose orders to follow.
When Huo Qubing led his army here, the various tribes of the demon race finally settled down under the strong leadership of their respective tribal chiefs.
