Chapter 361: 361

Hearing the words of the man in black, Jiang Qibai’s face suddenly turned very ugly.

"The surnamed Tu, who are you calling trash?"

Jiang Qibai glared at the man in black, his face turning angry as he spoke.

"Hall Master Jiang, I hope you’re clear that you are currently just a hall master, while I am an Incense Master. According to the rules of the organization, you are my subordinate now."

"You dare to contradict me? Aren’t you afraid I’ll report you once I get back?"

"Besides, did I say anything wrong? You all can’t even take down a small city, calling you trash—is that a mistake? It’s truly a waste of resources for us to be dispatched here."

The man in black looked at Jiang Qibai, a sneer forming at the corner of his mouth.

Hearing this, Jiang Qibai’s fists clenched tightly.

In the last battle at Divine Sun City, although he suffered only minor injuries which made him flee, those slight injuries hadn’t improved at all until now.

The power of the Dragon Vein was too strong.

"The surnamed Tu, don’t be smug. You’ve just never seen that kid; once you witness his prowess, you wouldn’t speak so lightly," Jiang Qibai retorted, his heart trembling at the thought of Lin Chen’s terror.

"Alright you two, since Brother Jiang speaks so highly of that young man, why don’t you two make a bet, and I’ll be the witness?"

At this moment, another man in white stood beside Jiang Qibai and the man in black.

The man had a gentle and refined appearance.

And his suggestion immediately brought a sneer to the faces of both Jiang Qibai and the man in black.

"Fine, since it’s like this, I’ll take you up on that bet. Taking down Divine Sun City won’t even require me to lift a finger; I’ll simply let my subordinates handle it."

"If I win the bet, that Flame Dragon Spear in your hand will belong to me," said the man in black indifferently as he took out one of his magic treasures.

"If you win the bet, this Golden Leaf Fan will be yours," he said, looking at the fan in his hand. Though he was reluctant to part with it, he was more confident that he could not possibly lose.

"Good, then it’s settled."

After hearing the man in black, Jiang Qibai smirked coldly, convinced that the young man in black would certainly lose.

He had personally witnessed Lin Chen’s strength; even ordinary Reverting Void Realm experts wouldn’t bother him.

As for the man in black’s subordinates, taking down Divine Sun City would not be so easy.

After making the bet, the distance between them and Divine Sun City was getting closer and closer.

"Uncle Tu, can you take Divine Sun City with twenty thousand men?" asked the young man in black, turning his head to look at a middle-aged man behind him. This man had a stern face, rarely smiling, but when he did take action, he revealed a chilling, eerie smile.

"Young Master, rest assured, it’s not a problem," replied Tu Changkong, immediately leading twenty thousand troops toward Divine Sun City.

The rest of the forces remained on the Flying Boat, watching the battle unfold.

For the man in black, taking down Divine Sun City would certainly not require all of their forces; yet if everyone were to join in, he felt the victory would seem too easy.

Jiang Qibai remained silent, coldly watching the man in black make his decisions.

This expedition was commanded by the man in black; should anything go wrong, he would bear the brunt of the punishment, which was exactly what Jiang Qibai wanted to see—he secretly hoped for the man’s failure.

The highest ranking of the twenty thousand troops was at the Heaven-reaching Realm Fifth Layer—such a force might struggle against Divine Sun City’s external powers, much less in direct confrontation with Lin Chen, which would likely lead to a swift defeat.

Although Jiang Qibai was also part of this mission, he secretly looked forward to the defeat of the man in black.

At this moment, the soldiers outside Divine Sun City patrolled as usual, when suddenly, they felt unusual movements in the sky; they saw a dense swarm of dark silhouettes speeding towards them, numbering in the tens of thousands.

Seeing this sight, Jiang Zhengyi immediately felt a wave of panic surge up inside him; he quickly took out a flare and fired it into the sky.

After launching the signal, Jiang Zhengyi issued an order, and all the soldiers in the city swiftly gathered into formations.

"Everyone, assemble and prepare for the enemy!

The assembled soldiers looked up at the vast enemy formation in the sky, fear stirring in their hearts.

After all, they were just the City Defense Army; the only battles they had experienced were within the city, and they were not prepared for a fight against such a formidable force of Martial Artists.

Among them, the strongest in cultivation was Jiang Zhengyi, who was only at the First Layer of the Heaven-reaching Realm.

Yet among the group in the sky, there were far too many whose strength surpassed Jiang Zhengyi.

If they intended to defend the city against them, would it not be like blocking a carriage with a mantis’s arm?

"Don’t panic everyone, form the Killing Formation, just like we do in our daily training."

"Panic won’t repel the enemy; only if we unite can we face the enemy without peril."

Though Jiang Zhengyi spoke confidently, he did not feel confident inside.

Their cultivations were low, and even though they practiced the Formation taught to them by Li Xuanming and wore the Purple Thunder Suit, they were still afraid of facing real powerful Martial Artists.

"Take out your bows and arrows, follow my command."

Jiang Zhengyi ordered as he looked at the people slowly approaching from above.

Upon hearing the order, all the soldiers immediately took out their bows and arrows, drawing them aiming at the Red Soul Hall Martial Artists descending from the sky.

After Jiang Zhengyi gave the command, all of the City Defense soldiers immediately divided into three waves.

The first wave drew bows to meet the enemy; the second wave got ready, and the third wave prepared to take over the position of the second wave.

Because of their low cultivation, even though they could burst with unmatched power with the help of the Purple Thunder Suit and the Killing Formation, they needed a recovery period.

Dividing into three waves nullified the weakness of their insufficient cultivation.

"Do these guys actually plan to resist us?"

"This is too funny, a bunch of Spirit Gathering Realm, even Body Tempering Realm people, thinking they can resist our assault—I can hardly wait to twist off their necks."

The Red Soul Hall Martial Artists scoffed at the sight of the soldiers’ cultivation levels within Divine Sun City, not taking them seriously in the least.

And of course, all of this was seen by Jiang Zhengyi, and anger rose in his heart.

For soldiers, being disregarded and belittled was an insult.
