The bright moon was in the sky, and a flying bird flew under the moonlight.
Suddenly, a huge shadow covered it, and then a big mouth full of fangs appeared on top of its head, and with a click, it swallowed it whole.
The marrow-eating owl shook his head, shaking off the blood on his face, and then looked at the city below with scarlet eyes the size of light bulbs.
At this moment, An Qingcheng has long lived up to its previous calmness.
The angry shouts of men, the suppressed cries of women and children, and the sounds of things breaking filled every corner of Anqing City.
Outside Anqing City, there were flames soaring into the sky, and further away in the circle of flames was the black wave of monsters.
The Howling Moon Wolf King stood on a hill, his silver-white fur constantly flashing with dazzling brilliance under the moonlight.
In its cold eyes, the outline of Anqing City was reflected, and a stream of alluring spiritual power was pouring into its nasal cavity from the distant city.
"There's better food there, and there's hope for promotion!"
Such thoughts kept rising in its heart.
In fact, not only it, but all the monsters present were looking eagerly at the city in the distance, as if there was something extremely attractive to them there.
Between the beast tide and Anqing City, there is a defensive team composed of several major families.
Ye Mang was covered in blood and sat among a circle of soldiers.
"Captain of the guard! The Leng family is so useless! They agreed to retreat to the back mountain camp together! They actually retreated without permission! They ran back to Anqing City on their own!"
A soldier with a resolute face said angrily beside him.
These words resonated with other soldiers, and they all loudly insulted the Leng family.
"That's enough..."
Ye Mang's deep voice sounded among the crowd, his sharp eyes scanned the surroundings, and the noisy insults suddenly quieted down.
"It's just that we didn't judge the situation properly. From now on, the defensive force of the mountain camp will definitely not be able to withstand this surging beast tide. It is reasonable for the Leng family to take the lead in returning to Anqing City."
He paused and turned to ask the person next to him.
"Have the two ladies returned home?"
The soldier nodded, "My subordinates have escorted the two young ladies back, but the master of the house is still in seclusion, otherwise how could these beasts be so arrogant!"
"The master of the family is at a critical moment of cultivation, and must not be disturbed. Besides, even if the master of the family does not take action, I believe that these beasts will not be able to enter Anqing City even half a step!"
After Ye Mang said this with a serious face, he continued to ask: "Second Miss...are you okay?"
"Ever since she learned that Prince Wang was missing, the second lady has not said a word. Even when she arrived at home, she was like this..."
"well……"
Ye Mang sighed deeply. He never expected that the partitioning circle set up by his master would be damaged, causing the ferocious monsters in the Youchao Mountains to emerge.
With the prince’s strength, even with the demon exorcism smoke and defensive jade talismans donated by himself, the odds are against him...
He slowly stood up, picked up the long knife on the ground, and walked forward.
"Let's go, it's time to change defenses. We need to buy enough time for the head of the Jin family to summon the monks in the city..."
at the same time.
Leng Tong stood on the city wall, looking down at the soldiers of the Ye family walking towards the front line, with a trace of amusement in his eyes.
"After this battle, not only did the Ye family and the Jin family not gain a good reputation, but their strength was also greatly damaged. In addition, the old thief Ye Tianxiong... Hehe, now, all we have to do is wait until my father comes out of seclusion and clean up the mess!
After today, the people in charge of An Qing City will still be a family with a powerful person from the fairyland. However, this family is no longer named Ye, but Leng! Ye Yuanyao and Ye Huanxi are also in the young master's pocket! Hahahahaha...
…”
His laughter continued to echo in the night sky until it was drowned out by the roar of beasts rising to the sky.
After a brief stalemate, the beast tide, led by several beast kings, launched a charge. However, the charge this time was not strong. These monster beasts actually knew how to test the opponent's strength first!
In the end, with the resistance led by the Ye family, Jin family and other families, the beast tide was repelled and a brief respite was won.
As for the Leng family?
Their forces, under the leadership of the Leng family masters and Leng Tong, sit on the city wall and use their eyes to help the monks fighting below. They are nicknamed "the last line of defense of Anqing City".
At the end of the first round of charge, Wang Tiezhu finally arrived near Anqing City.
But now there is a very serious problem before him.
Between him and An Qingcheng, there was a surging beast tide. With his current strength, it would be impossible to break through the beast tide!
But if you want to bypass the beast tide and enter Anqing City, I'm afraid that by the time you touch the city gate, the city has already been renamed "Leng"!
"What should I do..."
Wang Tiezhu stood on the top of a hill, looking at Anqing City in the distance with a troubled expression.
After finally dragging his exhausted body to catch up with the large army, only to be blocked by a tide of beasts. What the hell is this!
In desperation, he decided to restore his spiritual power first. He immediately sat down cross-legged and was about to take out the spiritual elixir to adjust his breath. When he reached into his arms, his expression changed and he took out a Qiankun bag.
This Qiankun Bag is not his own, but belongs to Old Thief Wang.
After Old Thief Wang was cut into thousands of pieces by the Sky Light Blade Shadow Talisman, only the Qiankun Bag was completely preserved.
Wang Tiezhu only made a rough inspection at that time and did not look at it in detail. Now that he has time, he might as well take a closer look at what is inside. There may be ways to help him break through the beast tide.
"This is the spiritual crystal bag, oh! You are indeed an old thief who has lived for so long! He has a rich family! Hmm...this is the elixir, the jade slip, the formation flag...huh?"
Wang Tiezhu was slightly stunned and took out a stack of small paper figures from the Qiankun bag.
"Why does this thing look so familiar..."
After thinking for a brief moment, Wang Tiezhu finally remembered, with a flash of surprise in his eyes.
"This is very similar to the Armor and Soldier Talisman that the old man gave me in Xuanxuan Continent! It's just that it shouldn't be as powerful as the Armor and Soldier Talisman, but it may be able to help me cross the beast tide..."
Wang Tiezhu rolled his eyes, put the paper man aside, and continued searching in Wang Zhen's Qiankun bag.
After a while, a small sword and a wooden box appeared next to him.
Finally, after checking all the items in Old Thief Wang's Qiankun Bag, except for some jade slips whose contents were unknown, it seems that these items can be used now!
Wang Tiezhu put away the Qiankun bag and turned his attention to the small sword beside him.
At first, I thought it was some kind of spiritual sword, but after injecting spiritual power, I discovered that this thing turned out to be a spiritual weapon for controlling the air!
