The sun hangs in the sky, bathing the earth in golden light, yet outside the gates of Qingshan County, there is a surging crowd of people. Sounds of shouting, panic, children crying, and animals whinnying are endless. The civilians, carrying their families and belongings, rush into the city gates, their faces filled with fear! Because the Demons are about to attack the city! An urgent order was issued throughout Yunlu County, moving the civilians to Qingshan County overnight. This is the scene now! As civilians rush into Qingshan County, they see the streets lined with fluttering white cloths and dead bodies, creating a solemn atmosphere. On the streets, frightened horses sprint, screaming as they run. “All able-bodied young men over the age of eighteen, who are not disabled or weak, arm yourselves and go to the city walls!” “All those who practice Martial Arts, Bone Forging and above, come forward, take a horse and assemble the troops.” “......” One by one, the able-bodied are conscripted, armored up, and sent to the city walls. All major martial arts schools, armed escorts, and martial artist gangs of Yunlu County are ordered to mount and stand by temporarily. But with the great disaster imminent, there are always some who refuse to obey. “Bullshit!” “They’re drafting all martial artists from Cao Gang, expecting us to charge into battle, no way.” “I’m not one of you, fed by government rations.” “Hmph, kid, don’t think because you and your master have connections with the Military Officer Captain and wear this uniform that you’re something special.” “Pah!” “Out of the way!” At the city gate, A large man with a corpulent face, robust build, and eyes as wide as a fan, slaps the hand holding the dispatch order of the governmental official on the horse. The horse instantly neighs loudly. Losing control, the horse collapses sideways. The governmental official on top shouts in fright and anger as he falls clumsily to the ground. The crowd around quickly moves away in fear. “Hahaha” The corpulent man laughs heartily upon seeing this. His brothers from Cao Gang join in the laughter. “Let’s go, there are other places for us, whoever wants to defend the city can do it; I certainly don’t want to fight with the Demons.” The large man waves his hand and strides out of the city gate. The crowd looks anxiously as the martial arts school group prepares to leave. Just then, A sudden sound of a sword resonates. A flash of cold light descends from the sky. With a “swoosh”, It slashes across the robust neck of the large man. “Gurgle” In the next second, blood sprays into the air, and a head rolls on the ground. Only the eyes, wide open, stare at the brothers from Cao Gang behind. “Gang... Gang Leader!” The brothers are shocked, some falling directly to the ground. Terrified out of their wits. At this moment, a person in a red dress leaps down from the city wall. Landing beside the corpse, his gaze sharp as frost, sweeping over the crowd. “In times of great crisis, those who undermine the morale of the army, behead!” The crowd shrinks back. They quickly scramble up in a pitiful state. “Yes, yes, yes!” Then, they awkwardly retreat back into the city. At that moment, a rapid sound of hooves approaches quickly from a distance. “Drive” “Drive” “Drive” From the southern mountains, a horse gallops through, its hooves thundering. On it, a person leans low, riding fast towards the city gate toward the figure in red, then suddenly pulls on the reins. “Neigh” The horse neighed long and loud. Its hooves lifted high in the air before coming to an abrupt stop. Following this, the figure on the horse flew off, landing on one knee, his tone urgent. “Sir, Feixian Sect forces indeed appeared seventy li in the southwest direction, coming fiercely and swiftly towards us!” Wu Shan, who is missing an arm, reported anxiously. His breathing was rough, and his face was pale. Lian Nichang’s eyes turned grave as she gazed towards the southwest. “Strike the drums and sound the alarm” “Put the entire city on alert!” After speaking, she leaped onto the city walls. Soon, on the towers, several burly men with their arms exposed, wielding red hammers, forcefully struck the drums. The rapid beat of the drums spread throughout the city. Next, the sound of galloping horses on the city walls. “Prepare for battle!” “Prepare for battle!” “......” On the city walls, the temporary armored townspeople, staring nervously at the forests outside the city, the attack giant crossbows in their hands trembling. Among them, on the tower, two figures stood on the rooftop, staring intensely, their expressions solemn. Qin Huhu’s eyes sparkled, anxiety flooding his heart. The Prefecture is in a dire emergency, urging his return, yet coincided with the troubles in Qingshan County. These lunatics suddenly appeared at the gates, even dispatching troops to Qingshan, seemingly relentless. He felt somewhat fearful; from the intelligence provided by the storyteller, this visit from the Feixian Sect seemed particularly troubling. The lives of tens of thousands of people from these two cities weighed on him heavily, like a huge stone pressing on his chest, making it hard to breathe. Time slowly passed by, the setting sun like blood, staining the clouds red, the skies over Qingshan County oppressive and solemn. The townspeople below, hearing the urgent drum beats, gathered in groups, large and small, looking around nervously, praying. Everyone on the city walls could not help but hold their breath. In a corner, a goat-bearded old man held a book in one hand and a pen in the other. His pen moved vigorously across the scrolls, black characters leaping onto the paper. “On the 60th day of the lunar calendar, in the southwestern frontier of Shu, in Qingshan County, there was a rebellion by Feixian.” “The former Mountain Patrol Military Officer of the county, Chen Yuan, had beheaded three envoys of Feixian, prompting their revenge.” “However, Qingshan County had previously suffered a great calamity, tens of thousands of townspeople fallen into......” “The Colonel of Yunlu County, Lian Nichang, came to the aid of Qingshan, and suddenly heard.......” “The people of the two cities, defending one city, able-bodied men, one after another, went up to the walls, armored for battle, including elderly men with white hair....” At this point, the storyteller paused the pen in his hand, heavily dotting the paper. He suddenly looked up westward, his expression grave. “Here they come!” From the distant woods, the rumbling of horse hooves and wheels were heard. Becoming clearer and clearer. The entire woods began to shake. And more intensely so. On the city walls, everyone felt the trembling beneath their feet, their breath tightening. The drumbeats on the tower became even more urgent. As if to pound hard on everyone’s hearts. At last, the shaking of the woods, moving from far to near. A great surge of black demon clouds burst forth, engulfing the sky, sweeping towards Qingshan County. The sky suddenly darkened. Black clouds maneuver the city! Everyone felt a strong and evil aura enveloping them. The demon humans had arrived! .............. Meanwhile, in a Contemplation Space somewhere, Chen Yuan’s eyes burst with silver light. Staring intently at the sweeping black clouds. Within the black clouds, demonic howls filled the sky. A colossal creature surged forth. It was a giant demon, patched together from countless human faces and corpses. Countless screams erupted from each twisted and fierce mouth, piercing through gold and splitting stones, demonic sounds shaking the heavens. Listening to this made one’s mind disturbed and murderous intents arise. Like a response, Chen Yuan let out a wild roar to the heavens. Following that, his body emitted a mountainous booming sound. Thirty-six rounds of the Great Sun, gathering flames, furiously swirling towards the Mud Ball. “Boom” A thunderous roar shook the earth. Divine light burst forth from behind Mud Ball’s head. After that, an immense mountain phantom, towering up to fifty or sixty zhang, wildly plummeted from the sky. Following. The booming sounds continued unabated.
