BTTH: DISCIPLE CASHBACK SYSTEM

Chapter 296: Liu Ling Breaks Through! City Defense!

Just as Yao Lao's voice fell, the flying bird hovering in the sky suddenly emitted a sharp cry.

Originally concealed by Yao Lao's aura, it would have been difficult for these Snake-People soldiers to discover him hiding here. However, with the bird's signal, both the Snake-People soldiers and four Dou King-level experts would immediately become aware.

"Human spy!"

Not far away, the leader of the Snake-People tribe, Mobas, showed an excited expression upon sensing the bird's signal.

In his sight, on a sand dune in the distance, a black figure began to sprint.

"Chase!"

With Mobas's low shout, the four Snake-People Dou King-level experts immediately pursued in the direction Xiao Yan was fleeing.

The Snake-People soldiers, who were already very close to Xiao Yan, also noticed his figure.

At this moment, led by a Snake-Person with Dou Spirit cultivation, countless Snake-People soldiers' eyes revealed a chilling murderous intent.

In the next moment, countless venomous spears filled the sky and covered Xiao Yan's position.

"Damn, luck is really bad!"

Sensing the sky behind him filled with a sea of poisonous spears, Xiao Yan cursed angrily, then immediately a thick layer of Dou Qi enveloped him. As the poisonous spears fell, he exerted all his strength to dodge.

However, even with all his effort, two or three poisonous spears still pierced his body.

Just as these poisonous spears were about to break through his Dou Qi defense, a cold white flame suddenly emerged on Xiao Yan's body. After encountering this cold white flame, the incoming poisonous spears all abruptly stopped in their tracks.

"Ah, this is going to be troublesome!"

Seeing the four Snake-People Dou King-level experts relentlessly approaching from behind, Yao Lao sighed heavily.

In the next moment, a pair of white Dou Qi wings unexpectedly sprouted from Xiao Yan's back, although these Dou Qi wings appeared somewhat ethereal.

"A human with Dou King-level strength!"

As Xiao Yan vibrated his white wings to escape, the four Snake-People leaders not far away were also surprised.

"We can't let him escape!"

After realizing the situation, the eyes of the four Snake-People leaders were filled with icy killing intent.

"Yuemei, you continue to advance with the army. Kui Xing, Nanshe, and I will pursue this human powerhouse. We must keep him in the desert!" Mobas quickly instructed Yuemei beside him, then swiftly accelerated towards Xiao Yan's direction.

After Mobas and the other two Snake-People left, Yuemei paused for a moment in place, then flew towards the Snake-People's army.

"Whoosh..."

Shortly after, in a quiet desert, the sound of rushing wind suddenly approached from afar. Moments later, a black shadow suddenly appeared from the eastern horizon, swiftly crossing the sky. Due to the intense pressure generated by its high speed, it carved out a massive sand tunnel in the desert, stretching over a hundred meters.

In the midst of the swirling yellow sand, the black shadow gradually disappeared on the horizon. However, before the scattered sand had fully settled, three more black shadows swiftly swooped in, their flying speed even fiercer, directly doubling the width of the sand tunnel left by the previous shadow.

"Human spy, you won't escape today!" Mobas's face showed a ferocious expression as he shouted loudly behind Xiao Yan.

"I really am not a spy!" Hearing the voice coming from behind, Xiao Yan turned around with a very helpless expression and shouted back.

In a courtyard within the residence of the eldest brother's mercenary group in Stone Desert City.

A tall and straight young man slowly emerged from a closed-door cultivation chamber.

At this moment, Liu Ling's aura was much stronger than when he fought Xiao Yan that day.

"Finally broke through to Dou Spirit!" murmured Liu Ling, lazily stretching his body.

Just then, hurried footsteps approached the courtyard where Liu Ling was, and soon a figure appeared at the courtyard gate.

"Captain... Captain, it's bad, Captain!" Casilda looked nervous, her tone urgent.

"Don't be so flustered, what's the matter? Speak slowly!" Seeing Casilda's expression, Liu Ling reprimanded impatiently.

"Captain, a large number of Snake-People soldiers have emerged from the depths of the desert!"

"What!" Hearing Casilda's report, Liu Ling was also surprised, then asked loudly, "Where are they now?"

"They estimate they'll reach outside the city in less than half an hour," Casilda replied.

"So fast!"

"Quickly gather all the brothers at the East City Gate!"

After learning of the Snake-People army's arrival, Liu Ling instructed Casilda, then hurried outside.

Not long after, Liu Ling appeared on the city wall of the East City Gate.

Gazing outwards, at the end of Liu Ling's sight, beneath the swirling yellow sand, rows of orderly Snake-People soldiers gradually emerged.

"Darn, are these Snake-People crazy? Do they really want to start a war?"

"I've only been on the eastern border for a short time, how did I end up encountering this kind of thing!"

Seeing the vast scale of the Snake-People soldiers, Liu Ling felt somewhat depressed.

However, although Liu Ling felt frustrated, as someone who had lived in the Jia Ma Empire for over a decade and as the leader of the Eldest Brother Mercenary Group consisting of nearly a thousand mercenaries, he felt a sense of responsibility.

"We must not let these Snake-People soldiers enter the city!" After realizing the situation, Liu Ling clenched his fists tightly, murmuring to himself.

At this moment, behind Liu Ling, in some of the city tower positions and the spacious ground below, stood seven or eight hundred fully armed mercenaries, all from the Eldest Brother Mercenary Group. This force was almost able to match the strength of the city's defending soldiers.

"Captain Liu, thank you for lending a helping hand at such a critical moment!" Behind Liu Ling, a middle-aged commander said excitedly.

Hearing the words of the defending commander, Liu Ling waved his hand and said very seriously, "General, there's no need to be so polite. In a racial war like this, we practitioners should be on the battlefield, where can ordinary people survive!"

Hearing Liu Ling's generous words, the middle-aged commander sighed deeply, "If everyone were like Captain Liu, it would truly be a blessing for our Jia Ma Empire!"

As the middle-aged commander's words fell, the vast and mighty Snake-People soldiers in the distance suddenly split into two groups. One group headed straight for the East Gate of Stone Desert City, while the other group moved around the left side of the city towards Stone Desert City.

"It seems that the Snake-People really don't regard our Stone Desert City as anything, they only intend to send a small force to deal with us." Seeing the movements of the Snake-People soldiers, Liu Ling murmured to himself.
