Mr. Bodyguard Novel - Chapter 729
Chapter 729 A Revived Pile of Corpses
The customs and human history of the four continents of Primordial world are different. But the privileges of the various classes in the continent are basically the same, especially one point.
This was why only the upper classes in the continent were qualified to recruit troops.
Normally, the Imperial Clan would have six legions in direct control of military power, and there would be about 300,000 official combat soldiers. Under normal circumstances, the saints would have four legions, and their official combat strength should be around 200,000. As for the royal family and the royal family, they usually only had two or one legion.
Shen Daolou obtained the military power of the 1st legion of Imperial City from Tantai Qingfeng. The 1st legion of Imperial City itself was one of the best elites in the Western Continent’s army. In addition, Shen Daolou had already mobilized 50,000 troops from the Shen Holy City to wait outside Tantai City. This meant that Shen Daolou had now led a total of 100,000 troops, and all of the 100,000 troops were elites among the elites.
In terms of strength, Shen Daolou had a hundred thousand troops, and in terms of experts, Shen Daolou was also an old man on the Titled Saint Rankings, ranking much higher than the Qin Clan’s Patriarch.
Therefore, on paper, Shen Daolou was much stronger than either the Qin Family or the Qi Family.
Moreover, the Qin Clan and the Shen Clan had already formed a grudge against each other. Shen Daolou estimated that after he went to Yuntian Imperial City, he would only be a person who would beat up the mess and clean up the mess.
In this infinitely beautiful dusk scenery, bringing a hundred thousand elites to get rid of the two great troubles in the past, and by the way, waiting for the Emperor Clan’s Clan Head to reward them with another great merit, this kind of thing really felt incomparably pleasant to think about.
At this moment, Shen Daolou was humming an unknown tune in his nostrils. Seeing that Cloud Heaven Imperial City was getting closer and closer, Shen Daolou’s mood became even more excited.
Not only was he happy that he was able to get rid of the Qi Clan and Qin Clan without blades, but Shen Daolou was also happy that he could obtain a wise man like Jiang Feng.
As a superior, Shen Daolou understood more than anyone else how important talent was, especially a talent like Jiang Feng.
“Reporting to Saint Sovereign, we are less than a mile away from Yuntian Imperial City.” The spirit boat messenger who was driving the Primordial Chaos Spirit Boat for Shen Daolou suddenly reminded Shen Daolou.
Shen Daolou immediately retracted his thoughts that had drifted far away. He immediately reacted and nodded, “Order the scouts to go over and take a look at the situation outside the Yuntian Imperial City.”
“Yes!”
Shen Daolou’s personal Spirit Boat messenger immediately sent Shen Daolou’s order through the communication device on the Primordial Chaos Spirit Boat. Very quickly, the scouts of Shen Daolou’s army separated from the group and soon, they disappeared at the end of the road ahead.
When the scouts went to explore the road, the army naturally slowed down.
Shen Daolou lowered the window of the Primordial Chaos Spirit Boat and ordered the entire army to stop advancing, waiting for the scouts to report back before continuing their march.
From Shen Daolou’s actions, it wasn’t difficult to see that Shen Daolou was able to sit firmly in the position of a saint under the Tantai Imperial Clan. Even though the Qin Clan and Qi Clan were already fat meat on the chopping board in his heart, he still didn’t choose to take any risks. This kind of caution wasn’t for everyone, especially in the moment before the things they had thought about for many years were about to come true.
Whoosh whoosh …
The sound of her clothes being blown by the wind came from far away, and the scouts sent by Shen Daolou quickly rushed back. The entire group of 101 people came to the side of the Primordial Chaos Spiritual Ark where Shen Daolou was riding. 101 people knelt down and bowed together.
The leading scouts are reporting to Shen Daolou, “Reporting to Saint Sovereign, this subordinate brought people to investigate outside Cloud Heavenly Emperor City and found that corpses can be seen everywhere outside Cloud Heavenly Emperor City. It seems that traces have just experienced a great battle. The main city gate of Cloud Heavenly Emperor City is open, so we didn’t go in to check the situation inside in order not to be exposed.”
“You just experienced a great battle?” Shen Daolou smiled. After nodding slightly, he ordered loudly, “Pass on this sovereign’s divine decree and march at full speed. This sovereign will see the corpses of the Qi and Qin families before dark!”
“Yes!” The squad was just about to respond when they brought their subordinates to report to Shen Daolou. The army that Shen Daolou had brought immediately moved towards the direction of the Sky Cloud Imperial City at full speed.
Outside Cloud Heavenly Emperor City, corpses were scattered everywhere on the ground. The broken flags, the frozen blood, and the weapons scattered all proved that a bloody battle had just broken out here not long ago.
Seeing this scene, Shen Daolou shook his head with a smile. He raised his head to look at the Cloud Heaven Imperial City, where the city gates were open. Shen Daolou could vaguely hear a murderous shout coming from the city.
Shen Daolou knew that it was time for him to clean up the mess. He shouted, “With the vanguard army led by Shen Xianfeng, charge at full speed inside the Yuntian Imperial City!”
After Shen Daolou’s third son, Shen Yutian, heard Shen Daolou’s words, he immediately straightened his chest. He rode on the Seven Profound Fire Lin Horse and pointed his sword at the gate of Yuntian Imperial City in front of him, shouting loudly, “Charge!”
Shen Yutian’s legs clutched the Seven Profound Fire Lin Horse’s abdomen. The Seven Profound Fire Lin Horse immediately rushed towards Yuntian Imperial City.
Primordial world beasts in Primordial were rarely tamed. Normally, even if they were captured, Primordial beasts would find a way to kill themselves. The Seven Mysterious Fire Lin Horse that Shen Yutian was riding on had to be bred from the moment it was born until it reached adulthood before it could be officially used as a mount.
The vicious beasts that were tamed from a young age would only have one master in their lifetime. After changing their masters, they would also choose to die. Therefore, there were very few mounts of fierce beasts in Primordial world. Generally speaking, they used spiritual boats like the Primordial.
The Seven Mysterious Fire Lin Horse was basically one of the most common mounts in Primordial world, and there were three points that attracted the attention of these Primordial Hegemons the most.
One was that he had a handsome appearance, and his entire body was bathed in blood. Second, his speed was extremely fast. Normally, only Primordial Spiritual Boats above the Million Rank would be able to compete with him in terms of speed. Third, their offensive power was very strong. If Primordial’s ferocious beasts were generally stronger than Hegemons Primordial’s, they would be able to defeat them. Thus, the entire Primordial world was boundless, but only the four continents where the population truly gathered was this reason.
Shen Yutian rode on the Seven Profound Fire Lin and urged it. The Seven Profound Fire Lin Horse suddenly lifted its speed. Immediately after, it saw a ball of galloping flames leave the vanguard army and charge into Yuntian Imperial City.
The main general broke away from the army and rushed into the enemy city alone. This was a very wrong and dangerous action in both ancient and modern war history. The reason why Shen Yutian did this was not because he did not understand the military, but because he wanted to win the first merit of this broken city.
“Alright!”
“General Xiong Wu Wu Shuang!”
“General Yingwu!”
When the soldiers of the vanguard army saw Shen Yutian charge into Yuntian Imperial City first, they immediately cheered for him. Shen Daolou also thought that there was no danger in Yuntian Imperial City, so he only smiled and nodded, not worrying about Shen Yutian.
The main general had already entered the city, so naturally, those who were soldiers could not procrastinate. The vanguard army began to speed up, rushing towards Yuntian Imperial City.
Seventy percent of the vanguard army had just entered Yuntian Imperial City. Suddenly, the city gates of Yuntian Imperial City quickly closed from both sides, followed by “Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!”
A series of explosions rang out in Cloud Emperor City. Shen Daolou, who had just descended from the Primordial Chaos Spirit Boat, had his eyes wide open. He was surprised for less than a second before he instantly reacted.
“Not good! You’ve been tricked!”
As soon as Shen Daolou finished speaking, the’corpse ‘outside Cloud Heavenly Emperor City suddenly revived.
Within the pile of corpses, an old man dressed in rags and stained with blood shouted, “Shen Daolou, you set up a trap for me. Even if I die today, I will drag you down on my back.”
Shen Daolou glanced in the direction where the voice came from. He immediately recognized that it was the Qin Clan Patriarch who flew out of the pile of corpses.
The Qin Clan Patriarch flew towards Shen Daolou from midair, and the two Saint realm experts clashed with each other.
The explosions in Cloud Emperor City continued to scream miserably. Shen Daolou was forced to fight against the Qin Clan Patriarch, but his heart was worried about Shen Yutian in Cloud Emperor City.
Since the Cloud Heavenly Emperor City had already been set up, Shen Yutian would definitely be the first to fall into danger if he rushed in alone. Thinking of Shen Daolou’s increasingly fierce offensive, the Qin Clan Patriarch seemed to have already thought of a solution.
Shen Daolou retreated as soon as he attacked, but when Shen Daolou wanted to retreat, the Qin Clan Patriarch came up and stubbornly chased after him, wanting to pester Shen Daolou to prevent him from leaving.
Shen Daolou was really tired of the candy-like battle style of the Qin Clan’s Patriarch. However, the two of them were both at the Saint realm. Even if Shen Daolou was stronger than the Qin Clan’s Patriarch, he was not much stronger.
After several failed attempts, Shen Daolou was in a state of disarray. The Qin Clan Patriarch seized this opportunity to launch an attack that caused Shen Daolou to retreat step by step.
Shen Daolou, who was stronger than the Qin Clan Patriarch, was actually at a disadvantage at this moment.
Inside the Yonghe Teahouse in Tantai Imperial City, Jiang Feng and Shen Chenfeng sat opposite each other. The tea in front of them was already cold, and the two of them hadn’t drank a single mouthful of it.
Jiang Feng had a Primordial astrolabe on hand. There was a picture of a time table on the Primordial astrolabe.
Jiang Feng stared at the time table without saying a word, but at this moment, Jiang Feng looked at Shen Chenfeng and said, “It’s time, let’s go Brother Shen.”
Shen Chenfeng stood up, and Jiang Feng also stood up.
Shen Chenfeng looked at Jiang Feng and said, “Brother Han, I have placed the biggest bet of my life on you. There is no need for you to worry about my courage. I only hope that I will not fail because of the will of heaven, which will implicate you.”
Jiang Feng smiled. He picked up two cups of cold tea on the tea table and said, “Brother Shen, don’t worry. I have already considered all the unexpected factors. I dare say that the success rate of this plan is 100%. If this fails, then I, Han Feng, can only say that I should die here.”
Shen Chenfeng nodded. He took a deep look at Jiang Feng and walked towards the exit of the teahouse.
Seeing Shen Chenfeng leave, the smile on Jiang Feng’s face, which was still relaxed earlier, immediately disappeared. He put his index finger in his mouth and bit it hard.
It could be seen that Jiang Feng was also very nervous.
