Seeing the young man, scantily clad and with a face smudged with dirt, actually shouting out his own name, Lin Qian was somewhat surprised.
Looking at him closely, Lin Qian’s mind seemed to have some impression, "Once before the Middle Ages relics, you appeared to be the disciple of the nearby Beast Taming Sect, following behind Hai Xiaoyun."
Yang Guangen couldn’t help feeling somewhat emotional that the other party still remembered him. He slowly climbed up from the ground and cupped his fists towards Lin Qian, "My name is Yang Guangen, and I used to be a disciple of the Beast Taming Sect."
"Disciple of the Beast Taming Sect, hmm," Lin Qian nodded silently and said to Yang Guangen, "In that case, do me a favor."
"A favor?" Yang Guangen was a bit puzzled, asking Lin Qian without any understanding, "What help can I possibly provide?"
At this point, Yang Guangen subconsciously looked towards the soldiers beside Lin Qian. He noticed that the aura bursting forth from these hundred soldiers was actually at the Ninth Level Peak of the Sky Breaking Realm.
A hundred Sky Breaking Realm Ninth Level personal guards, just who exactly was Lin Qian, wasn’t he a disciple of Wanxiang Sect?
"Right, when the old fortress of the nearby Beast Taming Sect is captured by me, it will become my private territory. After all, I am a stranger to the Beast Taming Sect, so when I leave to conquer other territories, you’ll be responsible for staying behind and pacifying the people," Lin Qian nodded as he explained to Yang Guangen, what help he would need from him.
"Attack... Attack the fortress of the Beast Taming Sect?" Hearing Lin Qian’s words, Yang Guangen was completely stunned, wondering if Lin Qian was joking with him.
You must understand, the fortress of the Beast Taming Sect is now the main camp of the Bone Knife Fish Clan, housing four warriors of the Life and Death Realm.
Even if all one hundred of the Sky Breaking Realm Ninth Level soldiers beside Lin Qian were to throw themselves into battle, they wouldn’t be enough to fill the gaps between the teeth of those Life and Death Realm powerhouses of the Bone Knife Fish Clan, let alone attacking the fortress of the Beast Taming Sect?
Saying so, Yang Guangen involuntarily looked towards the fortress of the Beast Taming Sect.
However, when he clearly saw the situation in the direction of the Beast Taming Sect’s fortress, he was completely dumbfounded.
Two massive ships hovered in mid-air, although not as large as the fortress of the Beast Taming Sect, they were nevertheless close to a fifth of the size. Compared to the size of the major city under the sect’s control, they were not far apart.
The dark cannon holes on the ship’s body spewed out light beams condensed from Soul Power, fiercely bombarding the fortress’s barrier, causing ripples to spread across the light of the Array.
Subsequently, Yang Guangen could hear the crisp shattering sound as the Array barrier instantly fragmented like a broken mirror, splitting into pieces.
At the same time, from the warships, a massive number of soldiers clad in heavy armor surged out towards the city.
The overwhelming might rose to the heavens, and four figures also burst forth from inside the fortress of the Beast Taming Sect.
Yang Guangen’s pupils contracted, for those four emerging figures were the four Life and Death Realm warriors of the Bone Knife Fish Clan.
When the Bone Knife Fish Clan first came to the region of the Beast Taming Sect, the remaining elders of the sect had once resisted but were easily slain by these alien Life and Death Realm warriors.
Normally, there is an insurmountable gap between the Life and Death Realm and the Sky Breaking Realm.
Of course, for a freak like Lin Qian, traversing such a gap posed no difficulty at all.
The soldiers of the Huaxia Empire, although much stronger than typical Soul Martial Artists due to the Empire’s technological strength and their own quality,
Still paled in comparison to Life and Death Realm warriors, however...
"Madman, courting death!" An elongated battle cry rang out as a general clad in black dragon silver armor, holding a long spear, charged out from among the airborne soldiers, confronting the four Life and Death Realm warriors of the Bone Knife Fish Clan.
If this wasn’t Zhao Long, who else could it be?
Facing four enemies at once, Zhao Long was apparently at a disadvantage from the outset, and Yang Guangen at a distance thought the same.
However, the situation in mid-air was beyond his expectations.
The four Life and Death Realm powerhouses of the Bone Blade Fish Clan were swept away by a single thrust of Zhao Long’s lance, sending them flying.
Those shocked were not only the distant Yang Guangen and other members of the Human Clan but also the Bone Blade Fish Clan themselves. They had not expected the Black Dragon Silver-Armored General of the Human Clan to be so terrifyingly strong.
With one sweeping thrust, that immense force was simply unbearable, and they could only be sent hurtling away.
They even discovered that their bone blades, which their clan took pride in on their arms, showed cracks, causing them great distress.
To know that even a tiny fissure would take a year to restore to normality.
Beyond their dismay, they felt an even greater fear.
Because the bone blades on their arms, known for their extraordinary sturdiness, would typically resist damage even from a Soul Martial Artist of the same realm wielding an Elemental Weapon Armament.
Even the gifted and powerful Sect Master of the Shengtian Sect, Zhang Dingyun, at the Life and Death Realm, couldn’t make a crack in their bone blades with a single strike.
And yet this Black Dragon Silver-Armored General had achieved such a level of strength!
The Bone Blade Fish Clan, loving leisure and hating work, were just as greedy for life and afraid of death. Witnessing Zhao Long’s overwhelming strength, they were filled with fear and quickly turned tail to escape.
Seeing the Bone Blade Fish Clan turning to flee, Zhao Long’s face showed a mocking smile, "Vermin, think you can escape?"
As he spoke, Zhao Long held his lance with one hand behind his back and raised his left arm, flinging it towards the direction where the Bone Blade Fish Clan were scurrying away.
The sound of air being pierced rang out, as arrows tinged with dazzling Soul Light shot forth from the battleship, at least a hundred Soul Power-focused sharp arrows.
The dreadful pressure materializing behind them caused the four fleeing Life and Death Realm Bone Blade Fish Clan powerhouses to look back, their souls nearly scattering in terror.
One hundred Soul Power arrows, each possessing the capacity of the Life and Death Realm, traced the direction of the arrows, and they could see a hundred soldiers wearing Light Armor and holding longbows, their eyes coldly fixed in this direction.
And their aura was unmistakably that of the Life and Death Realm!
"A hundred in the Life and Death Realm?" A profound fear surged within the Bone Blade Fish Clan, and soon their bodies were perforated by the Soul Power arrows, blown to pieces, raining down from mid-air.
Meanwhile, the warriors of the Bone Blade Fish Clan, originally fighting against the soldiers of the Huaxia Empire in the coastal sect city, were stunned at the scene unfolding above.
At the same time, the dumbfounded Yang Guangen outside the city walls was dealt another blow.
"Prepare to do me this favor. By the looks of it, this city will soon fall," Lin Qian said, suddenly producing a set of clothes and passing them to Yang Guangen.
As Yang Guangen took the clothes, a Swift Soldier suddenly appeared beside them, kneeling before Lin Qian to report, "Your Majesty, the Empress has successfully taken the Beast Taming Sect’s mountain gate, and Mr. Lei has successfully reclaimed the Wanxiang Sect’s territory, Wanxiang City."
Hearing the words of the Swift Soldier, Yang Guangen nearly dropped the clothes in his hand, "Lin Qian, are you declaring war on the Shengtian Sect?"
"You’re mistaken, I’m not declaring war on the Shengtian Sect," Lin Qian replied, looking at Yang Guangen with a light chuckle, "I am simply going to unilaterally annihilate the Shengtian Sect."
