The Thunder God Novel - Chapter 486
Chapter 486 Bing Lin Gate (2)
The city wall was filled with outsiders. Then, Lei Xingfeng saw the tower behind the city wall. He hurriedly ordered, “Let’s retreat!” He turned around and ran away. Then, he saw the tower flickering. A large ball of flames descended. A moment later, dense fireballs whistled towards him. However, Lei Xingfeng and the others had already retreated into the distance and watched a large fire ignite in front of the city wall.
A black smoke rose up, and soon a strange smell of meat floated over.
This was an outsider who had died in front of the city wall. There were still people who had no time to retreat and were burned to death there.
All the cultivators retreated into the distance. They could clearly see the city wall and the fire in front of it. Lei Xingfeng knew that this fire should not be an ordinary fire, but a fire that contained some kind of energy and characteristics, so that Daoist Master was unable to resist it.
Wu Yang said, “Feng, what do you think?”
Lei Xingfeng said, “It’s very simple. Let the Patriarch come forward and directly destroy the tower and the city wall. Otherwise, there will be heavy casualties and we may not be able to take down the tower.” He was well aware that defending a city was much more advantageous than sieging a city. Especially since he had a tall tower, even if he used his life to fill it, he might not be able to fill it.
Gao Ye sneered and said, “Will Patriarch Daojun come forward?”
“We have to step forward,” said Lei Xingfeng. “One of our men is dead, and one is missing. They can’t afford to lose.”
Wu Yang said, “In this battle of contact, I calculated that we have lost at least a thousand people.”
“Not that much,” said Lei Xingfeng. “A lot of them were injured. If there were better potions, they would recover very quickly. Only four to five hundred people died.”
Wu Yang sighed and said, “This is a lot. It’s equivalent to a little Mystery Sect.”
Lei Xingfeng asked curiously, “There are very few experts from the Outer Race. Most of them are similar to the Daoists here. This time, the casualties are much worse than ours. There are at least 1,000 to 1,500 deaths. Injuries count as well.”
Wu Yang nodded and said, “I thought they were too powerful at the beginning. Once we started fighting, we would understand that they are not our opponents.”
Lei Xingfeng said, “Alright, we can’t worry about the situation anymore. There must be a Heavenly Lord reporting on the current situation. Soon, the Patriarch should be coming.”
A large group of people were still standing beside Lei Xingfeng and the other three. Lei Xingfeng greeted them and said, “You guys organize a team and go hunting in the forest. Leave half of them waiting and boil water in a pot.” He naturally became the leader of this group of people. As for their own team, they had long since dispersed. Now that the team members could not find the captain, the captain did not care about the team members.
Fortunately, Lei Xingfeng was a Heavenly Monarch, and there were three Heavenly Monarchs here. Of course, these people obeyed their orders.
The cost of a battle was enormous. Many people began to get hungry after a fierce battle. Therefore, no one resisted Lei Xingfeng’s orders. A group of people immediately scattered into the forest to hunt. There were countless wild beasts and animals in this forest. It was too convenient for them to find food.
There were eight Mystery Sect, eight directions, and lucky cultivators. They didn’t even see a single hair on their way. They even killed a lot of prey. There were only two people and horses on their way. Lei Xingfeng had another way, but in the end, they all arrived at the city wall.
This was an annular city wall that completely covered the gap in the mountain range. It was about fifteen to sixteen kilometers long. Behind the city was the strange straight road.
There were a total of sixteen towers. They were built along the city walls. They were all steeples. They were different from the towers in the Great Forbidden Area. They should have the unique skills of outsiders.
The first to emerge from the forest were the hammer and the small hammer. The two of them dragged chains in their hands and walked out of the forest. Behind the chains were dozens of bell deer. These bell deer were not big, they were similar to big dogs. They didn’t know how the two of them fought, but they managed to hunt more than a dozen of them in one breath. They were tied to the chains and dragged all the way over.
The hammer said in a low voice, “I’m hungry. I’ll eat some snacks first before I have the strength to hunt big guys.”
Lei Xingfeng said, “Skin yourself and cook in a pot.”
Wu Yang said, “Let’s go, let’s go to the woods too.”
Hearing this, Lei Xingfeng knew what his grandmaster was going to do. He planned to return to the Jingzhi Realm and said, “Alright, let’s go together.” As he spoke, he pulled Gao Ye and the three of them quickly entered the forest.
… … … …
Returning to the courtyard of the Jingzhi Realm’s home, Lei Xingfeng shouted, “Fatty, Old Fatty, hurry up!”
Someone immediately notified Jin Dapang. Very quickly, Jin Dapang ran over and said, “Come back for dinner?”
Lei Xingfeng nodded and said, “Hurry up. Don’t be complicated. Just be simple. We still need to hurry back.” He and Wu Yang didn’t want to eat the food outside. That was pig food, so they sneaked back. Jin Dapang’s food was for people to eat.
“Yes, there are,” said Jin Dapang. He immediately instructed his subordinates to bring up the dishes and rice.
The Jingzhi Realm was their place to rest and breathe. This place was peaceful and peaceful. As long as they returned, everyone’s hearts would involuntarily calm down. Even though they had killed outsiders along the way, cultivators suffered heavy casualties. Their hearts did not feel good either. Being able to return and calm down was the greatest consolation. They all knew that the next step was even more cruel.
Just as they started eating, they saw Yu Kou, Xin Zhaolun and Qi Mei Yun appear. The three of them actually snuck back as well. Qi Mei Yun shouted, “Wow, Grandmaster, A Feng, you guys are too shameless. You didn’t even call us when you came back to eat.” As he said that, he rushed into the wooden shed. He didn’t look like a lady at all. He grabbed the meat and ate it.
Yu Kou and Xin Zhaolun didn’t even say a word and went straight to the table to eat.
Lei Xingfeng smiled and said, “Has it been arranged over there?”
Yu Kou said, “What the hell are you doing? It’s all in a mess. You can’t take care of the food. Come back and take a breath first.”
Lei Xingfeng was also too lazy to care. Anyway, he wasn’t someone from his own Mystery Sect. He could rob them. With the source of food, even if there was chaos, there wouldn’t be any chaos. Cultivators were all good hunters. As long as they could hunt, they wouldn’t have to worry about food. The previous food shortage was only because they were confined in the canyon and couldn’t go out.
Lei Xingfeng said, “Let’s hurry up and eat. Let’s go back early so that no Daolords will come and we won’t be around.”
Wu Yang nodded and said, “Alright, let’s go after we finish eating.”
… … … …
Returning to the forest, Lei Xingfeng and the other five walked out of the forest. The outside was still in a mess. Lei Xingfeng smiled bitterly and said, “How can we fight in this state?”
Wu Yang smiled and said, “Didn’t you play well?”
A meal was already finished. There were still quite a few people who were barbecuing meat. This was not what they were eating now. They were all preparing dry food. When they were in the canyon, they were all frightened. Only then did they understand the importance of grain reserves. Therefore, when they had time, they were all preparing dry food. The main thing was barbecue meat. After roasting, they would directly put it into the Lunzang Space. When eating, they would just take it out.
Wu Yang said, “I’ll go and get some information. Wait for me here.” He had the broadest connections, so he was the one who had most of the information.
The hammer and the little hammer walked over. Holding a roasted bell deer in their hands, they came to Lei Xingfeng and said, “Sir, this is for you.”
Lei Xingfeng took it with a smile and said, “Thank you, Hammer.”
Seeing Lei Xingfeng take the bell deer, both the hammer and the little hammer revealed smiles. It was not easy for an honest person to flatter him. A simple thank you from Lei Xingfeng made the two of them very happy.
Bai Yurun also came over with a roasted cow leg and said coquettishly, “My lord, this is a roasted cow leg. Haven’t you eaten it yet?”
Lei Xingfeng smiled bitterly in his heart. He didn’t want to provoke this woman at all and said, “Alright, thank you too.”
Bai Yurun said coquettishly, “My lord … why should I say yes? Hehe, my lord, you’re welcome …”
The hammer and the little hammer stared at her with an unhappy expression.
Following that, many Lord and Daoists came over with food and gave it to Lei Xingfeng. All of them were raw and cooked. Seeing this, Gao Ye, Xin Zhaolun and Qi Mei Yun were truly dumbfounded. When did A Feng become so popular?
These were the people that Lei Xingfeng had saved. There was always some gratitude in there. Sending some food meant that Lei Xingfeng did not refuse. He accepted them one by one and put them into the Lunzang Space.
After a moment of chaos, everyone quieted down and sat on the ground waiting.
Lei Xingfeng and the others also sat there, waiting for their next move.
Very quickly, someone gave the order.
Build a wooden fence and temporary wooden shed on the spot. The attack will be temporarily halted and everyone will wait.
After a while, Wu Yang came back and said, “We won’t fight for the time being. I heard that Daojun went to negotiate and asked him to make way.”
“It’s best if we don’t fight,” said Lei Xingfeng. “We originally wanted a path.”
Gao Ye said, “It’s very difficult to negotiate. Who knows if we will explode and injure people if we pass through the city? If the other party doesn’t have too many Daojun level experts, they won’t dare to open the city. Originally, they still had the city walls to support them. Once they open the city gates, hehe, you understand.”
Wu Yang thought for a moment and said, “Yes, it is indeed very difficult to negotiate. If there are enough Daojun level experts from other races, perhaps they can agree. If there are not many, it is really very difficult to negotiate.”
Lei Xingfeng said, “Forget it, let the Patriarch Daojun worry. Let’s set up camp first.”
At this moment, several True Monarchs, including Hammer, Little Hammer, Bai Yurun, and the others, came to discuss how to set up the camp.
From Lei Xingfeng’s point of view, the command here was in complete chaos. Everyone acted on their own. Lei Xingfeng’s subordinates didn’t know where they were going. He said, “We’ll just build a wooden shed here. We’ll take care of some of the wooden fences. Forget about the rest. Let’s move together.”
Cutting down trees and digging pits. Cultivators were much stronger than ordinary people. Hundreds of cultivators moved together. Very quickly, the wooden fence was erected. Then, a wooden shed was built. The wooden shed was not used to resist the cold at night, but was used to shield against the rain and sunlight.
The camp was busy until it was dark, and it looked a little bit like it was. However, it was necessary to sleep in the open today.
Someone came to inform them that all the Heavenly Monarchs would go to the ancestor’s place for a meeting.
When Lei Xingfeng heard the meeting, he had a very absurd idea. In his previous life, the frequency of meetings was so high that he had a headache when he heard the word meeting.
