Chapter 621, Seven Grand Empires Join Forces

Translator: Silavin

 

Each Grand Empire would gain an additional quota for entering the White Cloud Alchemy Manor. This temptation was impossible for any Grand Empire to refuse!

 

The seven great commanders exchanged glances, their eyes gleaming with greed.

 

As long as they could break through Twilight City before them, they would have an additional quota for their Grand Empire to enter the Alchemy Manor. Moreover, as great commanders, being able to defeat the legendary figure on the battlefield, the Carefree Prince, would be a supreme honour!

 

“We shall divide the territory of the Great Prosperity Grand Empire after breaking through this city!”

 

“Soldiers of the Southern River Grand Empire, heed my command!”

 

“Warriors of the United Yellow Grand Empire, obey my orders!”

 

The somewhat frenzied voices of the seven great commanders rang out almost simultaneously across the sky.

 

“Take Twilight City, and everyone shall be rewarded!”

 

*Boom! Boom!* Immediately, thunderous war drums echoed across the vast expanse.

 

“They are about to attack!”

 

Hearing the urgent war drums, Xia Zelei and everyone on the city walls immediately grew solemn.

 

Soon after the war drums resounded, outside Twilight City, the endless sea of black heads surged towards the city like waves. The thunderous footsteps echoed like celestial thunder, bringing tremendous pressure to everyone within the city.

 

“All Martial Kings, heed my command! Disperse along the city walls and guard strictly against the opposing Martial Kings!” The Carefree Prince’s expression gradually grew grave as his orders echoed across the city walls.

 

Upon hearing Carefree Prince’s command, figures streaked out like lightning from within Twilight City.

 

“Everyone, this great battle concerns the survival of our Great Prosperity Grand Empire! We have no route for retreat!” Xia Zelei’s gaze swept over the crowd as he shouted sternly. “For our nation and Families, fight these scoundrels to the death! Kill them all!”

 

“Kill all the scoundrels!”

 

“Kill!”

 

As his voice rang out, roars erupted from the city walls.

 

“The destruction of a nation is every citizen’s responsibility!”

 

Even knowing the outcome of this battle, not a single figure on the city walls retreated. Their eyes were red with fury as they stared at the terrifyingly dense army below, their gazes filled with nothing but determination to die fighting!

 

As the momentum on the city walls soared, the black sea of Humans below surged forward with deafening battle cries. Streaks of light flashed through the air above the sea of Humans. These were clearly the Martial Kings from the allied forces of the seven Grand Empires, the most threatening opponents that increased the pressure on the Great Prosperity Grand Empire soldiers!

 

When the endless army stopped about a thousand metres from Twilight City, a towering aura of slaughter emanated from within, enveloping the entire city.

 

The coalition army halted, and streaks of light shot out from mid-air. These were the Martial Kings from the seven Grand Empires, their gazes all carrying cruel, cold smiles as they looked upon the heavily fortified Twilight City.

 

Looking at the at least seventy to eighty figures in mid-air, the Carefree Prince’s expression immediately darkened.

 

“Xia Zelei! You can take pride in dying under our allied forces!”

 

As the armies faced each other, seven figures soared into the sky, and the voice of the Southern River Grand Empire’s great commander rang out.

 

These seven figures were distinctly different from the dozens of Martial Kings in mid-air. Not only were their auras several times stronger than the other Martial Kings, but even their presence seemed to merge with the entire battlefield!

 

Outside Twilight City, the boundless army erupted in thunderous cheers as the seven figures ascended, their morale soaring. In contrast, the hearts of those atop Twilight City suddenly sank.

 

“Damn these shameless old bastards! They’re all great commanders, yet they plan to simultaneously attack!?” Xia Ziyi looked at the seven figures with an ugly expression, unable to restrain her rage.

 

Beside her, the faces of the Martial Kings were all equally grim. The number of ordinary Martial Kings on the opposing side far exceeded their own, making it impossible to spare anyone to assist the Carefree Prince!

 

“If only General Li and Grandmaster Qin were here!”

 

At this moment, many could not help but think of that War God who had single-handedly held off a million-strong army for an entire day at Ancient Mountain Pass, Li Yuanba, and that Human Grade Alchemy Master who had created miracle after miracle, Qin Yichen.

 

“Heh heh, Carefree Prince, do not blame us for lacking grace. After all, you are no ordinary man. If we do not join forces, I fear no one could truly deal with you.”

 

Beside the Southern River Grand Empire’s great commander, the United Yellow Grand Empire’s great commander smiled at the grim-faced Xia Zelei.

 

“*Hmph!* A group of shameless defeated commanders! If you want to join forces, then join forces. Why make so many excuses? Are you not afraid of losing face!?”

 

The Carefree Prince looked at the seven great commanders with a dark expression. These seven were not like yesterday’s Martial Kings. Each was a powerhouse who had experienced countless life-and-death battles!

 

If it were single combat, or even fighting two at once, the Carefree Prince would still have absolute confidence in victory. However, facing these seven, even he felt uncertain.

 

“*Hmph!* The title of ‘Carefree Prince’ is thunderous! We naturally know that one person would be no match for you. Moreover, war only looks at results!”

 

Faced with Xia Zelei’s mockery, flashes of shame crossed the faces of the seven.

 

Originally, they had not wanted to reach this point. Even with a siege, Twilight City would surely not hold out for long. However, under the orders of the White Cloud Manor Master, they could no longer care about such mocking voices!

 

“History is written by the victors!”

 

“Carefree Prince, if you surrender now and hand over what the Manor Master wants, perhaps you might still have a path to survival!”

 

The Standing Principles Grand Empire’s great commander laughed aloud.

 

“*Hmph!* Still speaking of such things at this time. Are you not being rather naive?”

 

Xia Zelei glanced at him indifferently and snorted coldly. Then, taking a deep breath, his figure slowly rose from the city wall.

 

Seeing the Carefree Prince’s movement, the faces of the seven great commanders all stiffened. Then, the Southern River Grand Empire’s great commander smiled. “Since you insist on this, then disappear along with the Great Prosperity Grand Empire!”

 

“With just you?” Xia Zelei dismissively waved his hand, the mockery on his face completely undisguised.

 

Seeing the Carefree Prince’s arrogant attitude, the faces of the seven all changed.

 

“Everyone, attack!”

 

“Agreed!”

 

As the words fell, the seven great commanders each stepped back, forming a mysterious formation that could both attack and defend. As this formation took shape, Yuan Energy surged from within the seven men, faintly forming a perfect circulation.
