Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

Chapter 1170: Chapter 1170: Breaching the Imperial Palace

”How is that possible? The Northern Han Kingdom and the Heavenly Principle Country are the only two nations capable of threatening us. The Heavenly Principle Country is already our puppet; they wouldn’t dare, nor could they do such a thing.

As for the Northern Han Kingdom, according to frontline reports, they’ve been consistently engaged in border conflicts with our forces, how could they possibly be here?”

Sha Tong Tian shook his head.

”Exactly, do you really think that it could be the grand army of the Phoenix God Empire?”

Peacock Phoenix Kong He said with disdainful laughter, ”If that were the case, then it would be for the better. With me here, I’d like to see who has the audacity to lay a finger on an ally of the Phoenix God Empire!”

”That’s right, First Demon General, why worry? With Brother Kong He here, even if it were wolves, jackals, tigers or leopards, there’s no need to be afraid. These people are probably here because they’ve heard that the Peacock Princess is present and specially here to plead for mercy and apologize.”

Hong Li said with a smile.

Unlike Bai Qianjiao’s indifferent attitude towards the Peacock Princess, Hong Li’s veneration for the Peacock Princess was almost blind.

The Peacock Princess, whether in terms of strength or status, is an outstanding leader among the younger generation. Who wouldn’t give her face?

”Hahaha, exactly, exactly, with the Peacock Princess here, I doubt these bandits would dare to make trouble.”

At this moment, Jiao Batian, controlled by Ling Xiao, also seized the opportunity to chime in.

Having said this, even if Sha Tong Tian was still worried, it would be inappropriate to express it, lest it be perceived as fear.

To show weakness in the face of so many people would truly be embarrassing.

...

Outside the Imperial Palace, the guards were heavy, and all of them were from the Sea Race.

Though they were strong, this was, in fact, good news for Ling Xiao.

Because he wouldn’t have to worry about harming his own people.

The terrifying aura was approaching the Imperial Palace with a thousand cavalrymen.

The guards, which were the Sea Clan Warriors, all had a trace of fear in their eyes. They hurriedly took out bows and arrows and aimed at the incoming cavalry.

”Fire the arrows!”

The troops daring to storm the Imperial Palace must be rebels, so there was no need for a warning; they could directly shoot to kill.

However, as soon as the feather arrows had flown, they suddenly stopped mid-air, and astonishingly reversed direction, shooting back towards the guards.

Once Martial Artists grow powerful enough, it is an easy feat for them to forcefully change the direction of an object’s motion using either inner strength or soul power.

”Kill!”

A cold voice came from Ling Xiao’s mouth.

The iron cavalry behind him transformed into a gigantic iron lance that pierced towards the palace gates.

Boom!

The massive palace gates, yet to be closed, were shattered by the terrifying impact.

The force of a thousand cavalrymen attacking together was incredibly astounding; this destructive power was comparable to that of Cave Heaven Realm Martial Artists.

Not only were the palace gates shattered, but even the walls connected to them collapsed completely, turning into ruins.

These thousand men were carefully adjusted by Qin Huo and had always been training according to the battle formation provided by Ling Xiao.

This battle formation could gather the power of a thousand men to one point, producing a terrifying destructive force.

Although it was just a trial run today, the effect was indeed better than expected.

Many of the guards at the entrance were killed by the terrifying impact.

The iron cavalry charged into the Imperial Palace, beginning to clear a path for Ling Xiao.

After all, this is the Sea Clan Palace, so those who stay within are either Sea Clan Warriors, or human lackeys who are absolutely loyal to the Sea Race.

They are all enemies.

On the battlefield, they must all die.

The combat power of the Iron Cavalry is simply too overwhelming; the Imperial Palace guards are no match at all.

Furthermore, with the participation of Ji Mingkong and Leng Mei, this has essentially become a one-sided slaughter.

Interestingly, the experts in the palace are deep inside, drinking and enjoying themselves.

Riding the Demon Wolf, Ling Xiao slowly entered the Imperial Palace and said with a light cough, ”What are you doing, being so impulsive? Why did you have to damage the doors? In the future, people might need to live here. Be careful.”

Although he said this, he was quite proud of himself.

The battle formation he created, combined with the training methods of Qin Huo and Ji Ning, has indeed resulted in an army much stronger than the average one.

This was indeed something worth being proud of.

The Imperial Palace was now in complete chaos.

Even the most isolated places knew that bad news was bound to come.

Sha Tong Tian, Kong He, Hong Li, and others all came out.

The Jiao Batian controlled by Ling Xiao stood right behind Sha Tong Tian, his icy gaze fixed on Sha Tong Tian’s vulnerable nape.

If Ling Xiao wanted, he could kill Sha Tong Tian at any moment.

The powerful Demon Wolf Iron Cavalry slaughtered the Imperial Palace guards without leaving a single one alive, their bloodied battle armors looking even more cold and merciless.

The sunlight from the sky shone down, casting reflections on those battle armors, exuding an intense evil energy that made everyone tremble with fear.

Sha Tong Tian’s face grew dark.

Kong He’s expression wasn’t much better.

Such a bloodthirsty army had suddenly appeared right under their noses; could it mean that the Magic Capital was already taken?

But how could the always arrogant Peacock Phoenix Kong He be scared just because of this?

He slowly stepped out from the crowd, his face somber as he looked towards Ling Xiao in the crowd, who was indifferent, and shouted, ”Ling Xiao, you truly have some nerve. The True Demon Empire is an ally of the Phoenix God Empire, and you dare to run wild in the Phoenix God Empire’s Magic Capital without the Emperor’s permission? Aren’t you afraid of the Emperor’s blame?”

Ling Xiao?

So that’s the Chosen Son of Heaven, Ling Xiao!

He looks so young, probably only sixteen or seventeen, it’s hard to believe that such an Iron Cavalry army would heed the words of such a young person.

Ling Xiao didn’t even glance at Kong He; his eyes calmly met with Jiao Batian as he said lightly, ”Jiao Batian, your Sea Race has invaded the territories of the Human Race, destroyed the Sacred Dynasty foundation, killed our human Martial Artists, and enslaved our citizens. Today, I, Ling Xiao, as the Chosen Son of Heaven, have come to collect the debt!”

Seeing that Ling Xiao didn’t even give him a look, Kong He felt very humiliated. He suddenly realized that he was simply acting like a self-important clown embarrassing himself in front of everyone.

Previously at the banquet, he boasted in front of the woman he liked and the people of the True Demon Empire, saying that just by showing up, he could easily scare off the opposing forces, even if it were the mighty armies of the Phoenix God Empire.

He could not lose face.

Even though he was already frightened by these menacing Iron Cavalry soldiers, he still had to step forward.

Otherwise, what about the face of the Peacock Phoenix Kong He?

What about the dignity of the Peacock Clan?

Hong Li also stepped forward and stood next to Kong He, speaking to Ling Xiao, ”Ling Xiao, I know you’ve just been granted the title of King of Heavenly Dragon, but your territory is in Eastern Province, not here. Leave immediately, or else with just one word from my brother Kong He, your title of grass-rooted king could be abolished.”

She might feel quite proud.

With the backing of the Peacock Phoenix Kong He, standing by his side gave her a sense of unparalleled glory.
