“Zhang Huai, don’t be so stubborn!”

A powerful and majestic voice spread across the wilderness .

“Ruler Zong Shou is wise and is the hero of our Cloud World, but unfortunately, he is too young and rash, having angered the Taoist Faction . Now that he is about to face his tribulation and he is being attacked by the many sects, he will face the wrath of the saint . At this moment, he is most probably dead . Gantian Mountain is about to be dissolved . You are a real talent, so why be buried along with him? If you are willing to surrender to my Great Yue, I will reward you with half a province of land!”

This place was Huizhou Island, a small city close to the Cloud Ocean known as Shuangtian .

The entire Huizhou was like a ring-shaped island . Although this Shuangtian City was small and not as easy to defend as Seven Cloud Mountain, it was still a core area and an extremely crucial place .

If cavalrymen were sent out, they could cut off all the roads that led toward the core Huizhou land .

This was why to occupy Huizhou without heading from Seven Cloud Mountain in the east, or from the west where Gantian Mountain sent heavy troops to gather, then one had to conquer this city!

However, during these few days, this small city welcomed 1 . 3 million troops from the South Wind Cloud Continent, blocking this area .

At this moment, Zhang Huai was leisurely sitting on the wall of the city .

He was dressed in scholarly attire and seemed totally out of place amidst the tense and explosive atmosphere .

However, at this moment, each time the 40,000 troops in the city felt nervous, they would all look at Zhang Huai .

As long as they saw that extremely calm body, the uneasiness in their hearts would fade away .

Zhang Huai himself didn’t feel anything . He smiled and looked across from himself .

He looked at the middle-aged male in golden armor who held a large spear and gave off an exceptional aura .

This should be the Ruler of Great Yue, the mighty lord of South Wind, the valiant spirit of Yue Dynasty .

But, did he think about persuading him to surrender?

This Shuangtian City had already been trapped for five days now . From the first to the fourth, he had been sieging .

Unfortunately, Kong Yao was prepared in the city, not only having 200,000 Elites in wait, but the City Protecting Spiritual Formation and the city walls were both strengthened . All sorts of artifacts and machinery were all prepared sufficiently .

They suffered heavy losses on the first day, unable to get a step ahead at all . Then, they used strategy to try to persuade the generals within to rebel and collude from the inside .

Zong Shou’s tribulation wasn’t a secret matter . Everyone also knew about how he offended the Taoist Faction .

There were also people who started to spread secret news about how the Gantian Ruler was facing a calamity and was about to die around Gantian and Huizhou .

They were unable to prohibit it and also couldn’t find out where the source came from .

He started new policies within Huizhou and offended too many natives and nobles . As such he was too lazy to clear it all up .

Once these Great Yue troops were forced back, then he would deal with those people .

However, at this moment, there were indeed people whose hearts swayed in Huizhou . The cities in the south mostly surrendered without putting up a fight .

The Great Yue Army was pretty much sweeping across!

This was why he was a little worried those few days that there would be some trouble .

However, the situation was much better than he had expected . These Shuangtian City soldiers all came from Huizhou . 200,000 people were all young strong men who Zong Shou saved from Lianyun Island .

They were also people who benefitted from the land being split up . In the end, they were all unified . Even at the toughest of times, none of them rebelled .

As for the people within the city, these rich people were forcefully moved away a day ago .

Only the loyal and agreeable civilians were left and as such, they were unable to cause many problems .

Yuan Weiling was helpless on this fifth day and so he started to persuade him to surrender .

If the Taoist Faction won, then this Great Yue Ruler could naturally save a lot of effort . However, if Zong Shou won, then he would flee immediately .

However, at this moment, there were dozens of square formations in front of the city . They were all on full alert, killing intent charging into the clouds . They obviously didn’t think that the Ruler could survive the tribulation .

After Yuan Weiling said this, Zhang Huai was just sitting high up on the walls in a relaxed manner, showing no intention to reply to him at all .

His expression instantly became really unpleasant . He didn’t say much else, calmly looking at Zhang Huai once more .

“Let’s hope half a day later when the knife and blades are on your body that you can still be so calm…”

After saying this, he rode the horse back in the direction of his main camp .

Zhang Huai’s eyes flashed and then he felt a little interested .

“It is still unknown whether or not I will be faced with blades and sabers . On the contrary, you are the one invading my country so what kind of logic is this? You are starting a war, aren’t you afraid the people will blame you?”

“For no reason?”

Yuan Weiling’s body stopped as he also halted the footsteps of the War Beast below him .

“Your Gantian Mountain went against the path and used that new policy; killing gentries, disregarding birth and status and treating the people brutally? My Great Yue is asking for an answer, so why are we wrong? Just looking at the southern cities and one can tell . The people have suffered so badly under your Gantian Mountain! I remember that two years ago your Ruler Zong Shou used those ten million civilians as an excuse to occupy Huizhou . So, you can allow your Ruler to start a war, but not me for solving their problems?”

“You can do so!”

Zhang Huai laughed when he heard this, “However, the price to pay isn’t small! I hope that Ruler is mentally prepared…”

Yuan Weiling was too lazy to reply, scoffing coldly . He continued to ride his mount back in the direction of his camp .

However, in the next moment, he heard a cold horn sound out from behind him .

Following this, the earth trembled and the mountains and rivers shook .

Yuan Weiling’s expression changed slightly . The mount under him followed his mind and flew up to 1,000 feet high . He looked out into the distance .

He saw that dozens of miles away, there was a giant army that was marching from behind .

Leading the army were the 50,000 Big Dipper Sword Soldiers and the Big Dipper Crossbow Soldiers .

Behind them were an extremely Elite Army . Looking out, there were 300,000 of them . None of them was below Grade-3!

At this moment, not only Yuan Weiling, the many generals within the Great Yue army were all filled with disbelief . The entire army was terrified .

A dark glow flashed in Yuan Weiling’s eyes .

Before attacking Huizhou, he did think that this might be a trap .

Thus, only after confirming that Gantian Mountain’s elites moved north and that half of them boarded ships did he make up his mind .

After coming to shore, he prepared really carefully . He sent out scouts to search hundreds of miles around . There were troops housed at the few important paths .

Logically speaking, it was impossible that the enemy troops would reach their backs without them knowing .

However, how did this army appear here?

They were like troops descending from the heavens as they appeared in front of him?

He looked left and right and could see 2 battalions of 200,000 soldiers each moving forward . They were also an Elite Army .

Zhang Huai laughed out loud, “I might not die, but today it will be tough for Ruler to escape alive!”

Yuan Weiling’s eyes constricted . He then calmed down, as cool as a cucumber .

There was not much for him to worry about today . He just needed to wait quietly for the results from Gantian Mountain .
