Chapter 109 - The Fang Of The Evil Sects
Heavenly Demon Sect.
It was only two in the afternoon, and the sun that was orange only a few hours ago, shining warmly upon the land of the Heaven Desolate Region has suddenly become a yellow inferno.
The intense white rays of the yellow inferno sun rained down upon the land like the breath of hell or a pot of molten lava.
The heat was so devastating that even the birds were silent and the grass stood still as if too hot to move.
Right now, everyone in the Heavenly Demon Sect was filled with a certain somberness. The pressure of the incoming war weighed down on them as if dark clouds filled the sky and pushed down onto the land despite the devasting heat.
The entire sect was surrounded and covered by a powerful shield. At the same time, the numerous mountains that served as walls and entrance gates to the sect were filled with Heavenly Demon Sect's disciples and some elders, all of whom stared out vigilantly into the distance.
At this moment, they weren't wearing their regular disciples' uniform, they were all wearing red, the color of blood and the devil.
There were at least a few thousands of them. Compared to the Yan Empire that was able to summon 800 000 imperial soldiers in one shot, The Heavenly Demon Sect was greatly outnumbered.
Despite being one of the fifteen great influences in the Heaven Desolate Region, aside from the Evil Dragon Sect, the Heavenly Demon Sect had the least amount of disciple.
The entire sect, from the Sect Master to the lowest outer sect disciples and servants, was comprised of only 50 000 people in total, 750 000 people less than the approaching Yan Imperial army.
This meant that even if the entire Heavenly Demon Sect were to face the Yan Imperial army on an open battlefield, they would still be greatly outnumbered. The ratio between the two of them was 1 to 16, for every Heavenly Demon Sect's disciples, there were 16 imperial soldiers.
Nonetheless, though they were greatly outnumbered, it didn't mean that they would crumble like dried weeds before the colossus Yan Imperial army.
The Heavenly Demon Sect wasn't known as the Fang Of the Evil Sects for nothing. They might not be a lot, but due to the brutal nature of their disciples, their might was second to none! This was also because, each disciples' skill was like a tiger, and walking out, no one in all the heaven desolate region dared to provoke them.
Furthermore, compared to the Yan Imperial army, the Heavenly Demon Sect had many stronger warriors.
As the disciples and some of the elders were patiently waiting for the Yan Imperial army, the sound of the approaching army was getting closer and closer in the distance. The entire mountain forest seemed to shiver under the oppression of the iron hooves of the horses and demon beasts.
Even the surrounding wild demon beasts had gone into hiding… as if they were terrified of the domineering presence of stampeding horses…
Upon hearing the sound of the Yan Imperial army that was slowly approaching into the distance, the countenance of disciples of the Heavenly Demon Sect suddenly changed. They all had a dignified and solemn expression on their faces.
At the same time, a middle-aged man wearing a red crimson robe like the others suddenly flew into the sky and looked back at the thousands of nervous disciples with a deep meaningful look in his eyes.
It was the first time they were going to participate in such a large scale war. It was their first time participating in a war.
Looking at the nervous look on the disciples' faces, the middle-aged man suddenly unleashed his peak Martial Sovereign aura.
Boom!
At the same time, an intense violent killing intent poured out of his body. This shocking sight shook everyone. One by one, the disciples of the Heavenly Demon Sect looked at the elder standing in the air ahead of them like a demon God.
All their nervousness was gone as they watched an astonishment, the indescribable frenzy rage, and killing intent rising from the elder.
This elder was known as elder Zen and he was responsible for the first wave of attacks against the Yan Imperial army.
Seeing how the nervousness of the disciples had disappeared, the elder loudly said with a devilish smile on his face, " Disciples of the Heavenly Demon Sect, today you have been summoned here to welcome the imperial dogs of the Yan Empire."
"You have been summoned here because you are among the most ruthless and fearless disciples of the Heavenly Demon Sect!."
"You have been summoned here to show those dogs what happened when a group of sheep and hens intrude a tiger's den!."
"You have been summoned here to show the dogs of the Yan Empire why the Heavenly Demon Sect is known as the Fang of the Evil Sects!"
The elder's voice was loud and powerful as if it resounded from the edges of Heaven. There was an endless authority contained within that completely sounded out in the ears of every single disciple present. It also had this empowerment effect that caused those that heard to become more confident of themselves.
At this moment, everyone's breathing was obstructed, while their eyes couldn't help but involuntarily blaze-up.
"Fearless disciples of the Heavenly Demon Sect! Raise your heads and look ahead of you. The dogs of the Yan Empire dared to sully our holy land with their filthy presence." Elder Zen suddenly turned back and pointed to the direction where the Yan Imperial army was coming.
He then shouted, " "Fearless disciples of the Heavenly Demon Sect, who amongst you will be the first one to storm into the in the incoming Yan Imperial army?"
The atmosphere in front of the Heavenly Demon Sect was set ablaze.
No one made any movements. However, all the disciples present was suddenly boiling with a desire for war; in fact, this desire was so fervent that it was enough to set the world on fire.
"Fearless disciples of the Heavenly Demon Sect, who amongst you will be the first one to chop one of the dogs of the Yan Empire?" Elder Zen spoke in a profound voice.
"Who amongst you will bring the dog head of the 1st Imperial Prince Yan Zou to the Sect?"
"Who amongst you will behead their so-called military genius, Prince Yan Kong, and bring his head to the sect?"
"Who amongst you will slaughter the most Imperial dogs?."
Elder Zen came up with a series of questions. He practically expedited an uncontrollable battle urge inside these previously nervous disciples until they couldn't contain such an urge. They clenched their fists and started gasping.
Their eyes radiated a vicious and bloody blood-lust!
"This war will decide the fate of the entire Heaven Desolate Region!" Elder Zen sounded solemn and dignified, "This war will be recorded in the history of Heaven Desolate Region for eternity."
"The names of all the disciples and elders who take part in it will be handed down forever in the Heaven Desolate Region as well as the Sect. Their glorious achievements would become a legend!"
"This war will decide the ruler of the Heaven Desolate Region!"
"It will decide who shall govern the ways of this Region — who shall control the fate of the hundreds of millions of people within the Heaven Desolate Region."
Elder Zen's voice was bland, yet it went straight to the disciples' heart; through and through. It awoke their deep-seated bloodthirstiness. They felt as if they were under a spell.
"Now, who the fuck are we?" Shouted Elder Zen.
" We are the Fang of the Evil Sects!."
" We are the Fang of the Evil Sects!."
" We are the Fang of the Evil Sects!."
The entire region outside of the Heavenly Demon Sect trembled with the loud chants of the disciples. The disciples' emotions were boiling fiercely.
Meanwhile, Ling Tian, the sect master of the Heavenly Demon Sect stood on top of the highest mountain peak of the Heavenly Demon Sect while looking at the hot-blooded and fearless disciples ready to welcome to Yan Imperial army.
His face was cold as ice and his eyes were radiating powerful killing intent.
"Not only the Evil Dragon Saint but the other Evil Sects also refused to come to our aid, luckily Chen'er had broken through the Martial Saint. With his weird power, it isn't impossible for him to handle that old ghost, Yan."
"Its time to show those bastards the true power of the Heavenly Demon Sect, and once I'm done with the Yan Empire, I'll see who has the balls to point their swords towards the Heavenly Demon Sect again." Murmured Ling Tian in a cold tone as his mouth curved upward into an evil smile.
