Chapter 54: Arrows Like Thunder, Spears Like Dragons
An indescribable emotion spread as Jin Li couldn't help but ask, "How is he?"
The red-armored figure seemed to have anticipated this question: "The master is well."
After saying this, the red-armored figure seemed to lose all its spiritual essence and ceased speaking.
Jin Li felt at ease. She knew this was a forbidden army of the Clothing Department, resurrected from death.
They were a battle-hardened elite force that had already fallen in battle.
She looked at the demon emperor.
At this moment, the demon emperor also looked at her in astonishment.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
"The Four Departments of the Divine Court were long destroyed in the mists of history!"
"How can there be a forbidden army of the Clothing Department in this world!"
"You are nothing but projections, heart demons!"
"Disturbing my supreme heart, you must die!"
The demon emperor roared, seemingly about to charge towards the forbidden army of the Clothing Department, intending to shatter those shadows with a punch.
However, something astonishing happened.
He took a step forward but immediately retreated, flying out of the city.
At this moment, one of the ten black-armored commanders within the forbidden army, carrying a long bow, drew it partially and released an arrow.
Whoosh!
The long arrow made a sonic boom, leaving a long trail across the sky.
The swift arrow, like a bolt of lightning, pierced the demon emperor's body.
The demon emperor looked back in disbelief: "Supreme... emperor!"
With a "bang," the arrow exploded, and his body was blown apart.
A terrifying giant beast, the demon emperor, was easily shot to death by a single arrow, then exploded.
It was as if a balloon had been popped by an arrow.
This scene shocked the civil and military officials present.
Even Sima Ting was utterly shaken.
The thin emperor of the Tianyun Sect beside him trembled, his eyes filled with disbelief.
A powerful figure, infinitely close to a supreme emperor, ranking among the top ten in the demon race, was killed by a single arrow?
He looked at the forbidden army of the Clothing Department in the sky, feeling no resistance in his heart.
The ten leaders, each with an aura as deep as the ocean!
They were supreme emperors!
And not just ordinary supreme emperors!
A forbidden army of ten thousand led by ten supreme emperors and nearly a hundred emperors!
What a concept!
None of the soldiers were ordinary people.
The lowest rank was innate, and there were no postnatal cultivators.
Who could stand against such a forbidden army?
He wanted to find a hole to hide in and secretly escape back to the Tianyun Sect.
At this moment, Sima Ting suddenly laughed maniacally: "Why? Damn heavens, why do you keep toying with me!"
He suddenly pointed at the thin emperor of the Tianyun Sect: "He is from the Tianyun Sect, and all this was their plot!"
At this point, Sima Ting seemed to accept his fate.
On the sacrificial platform, Jin Li, though she had her suspicions, was still moved and disappointed upon hearing this.
The human sacred land, the Tianyun Sect... had ultimately fallen.
She looked at the forbidden army of the Clothing Department and thought of Qi Yuan, still in the forbidden area.
She made a decision in her heart.
She would use the forbidden army to quickly sweep away the predicament, then... go to the ancient Qichun tree to see that man.
The ancient Qichun tree, the divine tree of the Moonwatch Continent.
It is said that if lovers meet under the ancient Qichun tree, they will receive the blessings of the divine tree.
"Kill!" Jin Li's face turned cold.
She would once again become the Empress of Nangan.
She was raised with the worship of the people, so she should do something for this country!
With Jin Li's command, the silent forbidden army advanced, and one of the commanders, holding a long spear, pinned the thin emperor to the ground with a single thrust.
Retrieving the spear.
The spear returned, and the person was annihilated.
Sima Ting was also pinned to death with a single thrust.
The civil and military officials, witnessing this scene, dared not run. They only trembled or knelt on the ground, begging for Empress Jin Li's forgiveness.
Jin Li looked at the terrified officials and the ones lying in pools of blood, her eyes showing no pity.
The Soul-Burying Banner Array outside the city and the remaining demon emperors were her main concerns.
"Gentlemen, kill the enemy!" Jin Li's face was stern.
At this moment, the grievances suppressed for seventeen years seemed to pour out.
Sadly, she was just one person away from perfection.
...
"Little Wedding?" Qi Yuan stood in the space, gently patting the little wedding garment.
At this moment, the little wedding garment clung to his body like an octopus.
The little wedding garment was drowsy.
Qi Yuan looked at the little wedding garment, lost in thought.
"Too bad you don't have a face." Qi Yuan thought.
He didn't disturb the little wedding garment.
Because he found that the little wedding garment seemed to be like him, greatly exhausted and not yet recovered.
This was the first time he had seen the little wedding garment in this state.
Qi Yuan's expression was complex.
It seemed that he couldn't be too combative in the future.
Qi Yuan decided that he should be more cautious in the future.
At this moment, the little wedding garment, who had been asleep, suddenly moved.
If it had eyes, Qi Yuan would have noticed its long eyelashes fluttering before opening its eyes.
Seeing the little wedding garment awake, Qi Yuan smiled gently: "You're in trouble. After leaving the Clothing Department, you probably won't see your kin for a while."
There were many other wedding garment spirits in the Clothing Department.
The little wedding garment continued to cling to Qi Yuan, like a clingy puppy.
"I wonder if you'll have trouble adjusting. The place we're going next is called... the Five Elements Forbidden Land.
I wonder if there are many monsters in the Five Elements Forbidden Land?"
If there were many monsters in the Five Elements Forbidden Land, Qi Yuan decided to rely less on the little wedding garment and fight on his own.
Even without the little wedding garment, didn't he still conquer the Clothing Department Forbidden Area?
It was originally clumsy, knocking things over when it walked, and even tripping over nothing.
Moreover, its body was soft and delicate. Qi Yuan feared it couldn't handle the strain of frequent merging.
Of course, Qi Yuan was reminded of a certain TV show's siblings, where the brother said he could defeat the enemy without his sister's sword, but the sister sacrificed her sword, and the brother died in battle.
Naturally, Qi Yuan did not favor such an ending.
"Five Elements Forbidden Land... here I come."
Qi Yuan held the little wedding garment's cold hand, and they finally stepped into the Five Elements Forbidden Land.
Unlike the Xuanyuan Forbidden Area and the Clothing Department Forbidden Area, it was vastly different.
Looking around, Qi Yuan saw no flowers, trees, or other monsters in the Five Elements Forbidden Land.
The environment was peculiar.
One side was lava, burning with blazing flames; another side was ice, spouting cold springs; another side was a gold mine, with specks of gold sand, some of which were in liquid form, flowing.
The Five Elements Forbidden Land, a place where the five elements gather.
He tightly held the little wedding garment's hand as they walked into the Five Elements Forbidden Land.
After all, given the little wedding garment's clumsy and naïve nature, if it walked by itself and fell into the fire, burning its clothes and exposing itself, what then?
Of course, what if it got hurt.
At this moment, an old voice sounded in Qi Yuan's ear.
"Lord of the Clothing Department, I have been waiting for you for a long time!"
