Indestructible Body Of Vajra Of The Village Leader

Chapter 942: Chapter 748: The Imminent Great Battle! Who Is the Hunter? (Additional Chapter 4/5 for Yuexiang Book World)

Changzhou City.

On the city tower, all the commanders looked up at the evening sky, still unable to find the shadow of the legendary giant Demon Hawk of the martial arts world.

Outside the city, the Divine Guard Army’s troops had ceased their maneuvers, with a massive force of eighty thousand soldiers besieging, stationed in various camps and arrow towers around the city.

The camps and trench positions in the dark night showed no signs of life, no lights, exuding a terrifying sense of oppression like black clouds pressing down on the city, ready to collapse it.

The summer sky darkened quickly, just like the situation changed unexpectedly.

Several commanders felt uneasy, looking towards the Black Wind Village’s large numbers of troops camped by the mountain forests and moat, exchanging glances with a sense of ominous foreboding.

The chief guard and city lord Yu Kang said in a deep voice, ”The Divine Guard Army in Yang Province and Zhenjiang are both stirring restlessly, and I’m afraid they will launch a general attack tonight. Yet here in Changzhou, the enemy is eerily quiet, which might mean a change will occur tonight.”

A deputy general said, ”Even if this army of eighty thousand besieges us, capturing Changzhou City overnight would be difficult, especially with those Black Wind Village righteous men assisting in containment, not to mention our twenty thousand city guards, enough to defend but not to conquer.

The fear is they invite martial arts powerhouses for assassination, which might throw our ranks into chaos.”

Another advisor said, ”Iron Gall Divine Hou trained many martial arts experts early on, even though most have defected or gone into hiding, the secret cadre of dead soldiers he cultivated aren’t simple.

Moreover, with the backing of the ambitious Xiong Ba from the Divine Martial Country, inviting martial arts experts for assassination is certainly what he would do, and let us not forget that four days ago, among those driven away by a Black Wind Village expert, two were from the Heavenly Pool Twelve Evil.”

Yu Kang, with a serious expression, said, ”You mean if there is a disturbance tonight, it’s likely that other experts from the Heavenly Pool Twelve Evil will also make their move?”

The advisor took a deep breath and said solemnly, ”It’s very possible! If the experts from the Heavenly Pool Twelve Evil attack, with some targeting the Black Wind Village expert and others us three, our solid as gold soup defense will have a breach for the enemy to exploit.”

Yu Kang frowned, clasped his hands behind his back, and said, ”Fortunately, this general is not unprepared. Duan Tianya, Gui Hai Yidao, Shangguan Haitang, Xiangxi Four Ghosts, you all come out.”

Immediately, seven personal guards around them came forth, to the stunned eyes of the deputy general and advisor, wearing helmets covering the upper half of their faces, clearly not wanting to reveal their true appearances.

They stepped forward, raised their heads to expose their faces, and clasped fists towards Yu Kang and the others, saying in unison.

”We will firmly defend this place and ensure the safety of the three of you.”

Shangguan Haitang said, ”Since the Divine Hou became ruthless and Brother Duan almost lost his life to him, we have absolutely nothing to do with him.”

Among them, the four laughed darkly, speaking one after another, ”Our Xiangxi Four Ghosts specialize in close protection.”

”Even if stronger than the four of us, unless they reach the Heavenly Human 5th Realm or are as abnormal as our village chief.”

”We can keep you safe, even using us as shields is no issue.”

”This is your fortune, we are not interested in who rules the Ming Country, we only follow the village chief’s orders to protect you.”

”Good, very good! If Changzhou is safe this time, I, Yu Kang, will surely reward your village chief, the Champion King greatly!”

Yu Kang laughed heartily, then looked towards Duan Tianya and others, saying to the moved deputy general and advisor, ”Iron Gall Divine Hou is now isolated and helpless, those he trained like the Heavenly Earth Xuan Three Great Secret Agents, have all turned against darkness to stand with us.

On the Black Wind Village’s side, the Black Wind Village Chief has long sent Xiangxi Four Ghosts here secretly.”

”That is indeed good!”

The deputy general and advisor were both overjoyed.

Yu Kang continued, ”Not only that, this general will also generously reward, as those Black Wind Village warriors crave tangible benefits. Under heavy rewards, there must be brave soldiers, I have sent messengers to pass the message to the Black Wind Village generals to seek a closer alliance.”

...

Under the vast night, the moat around Changzhou City appeared desolate, blending the coolness of a summer night with the sounds of frogs and insects, full of vitality.

Ancient Color Strange People and Tie Niu, on horseback, led a group of Players gathered at the edge of Lin Village, observing the riverbank and the distant Divine Guard Army lying like a giant beast.

This part of the river was particularly shallow and narrow, with dense forests along the banks, chosen as their encampment area. It was both a necessary path for the enemy to charge across the river towards Changzhou City and the best location for an ambush.

Ancient Color Strange People observed for a while, then turned back to the numerous Players busy in the night, grinning, ”Tie Niu, even the city lord of Changzhou has issued a reward task. Haha, if we win this battle again, the war achievements and rewards we accumulate could be considerable. I think I might even exchange for the village chief’s teachings opportunity.”

Tie Niu, still clad in the imposing Black Wind Mighty Armor, chuckled warmly, thumping his chest with a loud clang, and said in a muffled voice, ”I only want to learn the Vajra Invulnerability Divine Skill from the village chief. The chief said, once I reach the Heavenly Human Realm, he will teach me the Vajra Invulnerability Divine Skill.”

”Damn! I shouldn’t talk about this with you, the chief has never privately tutored me. You truly live up to the name ’Great Strength’s Son Tie Daniu’ in the martial world.”
