Battle Through the Heavens, Reborn as Xiao Yan's Sister

Chapter 96 The Battle of the Holy City
"Boom!"

The negotiation situation has collapsed.
Even though Dan Wang Gu He took out two Dou Ling Pills and one Hua Xing Pill, he couldn't shake Queen Medusa's determination not to exchange for the Strange Fire, and a great battle was about to break out.

Inside the palace,
Hearing the loud noise coming from the distant sky above the city, Xiao Yue looked at the heroic snake woman beside her and said, "There's a fight outside, and your Queen is in imminent danger. Are you sure you don't want to go out and check?"

Hua She'er's pretty face showed a hint of struggle. After all, there was a Dou Huang powerhouse watching her from outside, and she was indeed very worried about Her Majesty the Queen's safety.

at this time,

A deafening explosion echoed from the sky outside the city into the palace, causing the entire palace to tremble. Hua She'er's expression changed slightly, but Xiao Yue remained calm and composed.

"Boom!"

Several violent energies in the distant sky were surging violently, causing the dark clouds in the night sky to churn.

Seeing this, Hua She'er's face showed even more worry and struggle. As Queen Medusa's loyal servant, she was extremely concerned about the Queen's safety.

"boom!"

Another deafening explosion rang out, this time more violent than any before. The entire palace seemed to tremble under the force, and even the solid stone walls began to crack.

Hua She'er's body trembled involuntarily. In the end, she decided to prioritize the Queen's safety and turned to Xiao Yue, saying:
"Miss Silvermoon, I'm going outside to help out. Don't wander around here, wait for me to come back!"

finished,

She then resolutely rushed out of the palace.

Seeing Hua She'er leave, Xiao Yue felt much more relaxed. As Queen Medusa's personal guard, Hua She'er possessed the strength of an eight-star Dou Wang. Even if Xiao Yue wanted to take down Hua She'er, she would have to put in some effort.

Having someone constantly watching over me was really in the way, but now I've finally gotten rid of them.

"Next, it's time to get down to business."

Xiao Yue looked in the direction of the Snake-People's Temple, a slight smile appearing on her lips.

……

……

……

the other side,
The instant the black-robed man shattered Queen Medusa's illusion, rage surged in both Mobas's and Yue Mei's eyes. The latter abruptly turned her head and sternly rebuked the countless snake-people guards on the city wall below:

"Poison spears, form ranks!"

Upon hearing Yue Mei's order,

A chorus of shouts immediately echoed from the city wall, and then a javelin-throwing force of several hundred men gripped their poisoned spears and hurled them fiercely at Gu He and his group, carrying bursts of violent fighting spirit!

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!!!"

Suddenly,

Above the moonlit night sky, a dense rain of poisonous spears shot towards the black-robed man and Gu He and his companions not far away. With the support of countless battle qi, the poisonous spears emitted sharp whistling sounds, making one's ears ache slightly!

Looking at the massive rain of poisonous spears in the sky, the leader in black robes slowly stepped forward. With a gentle wave of his sleeve, a blue tornado hundreds of meters long suddenly swept out, scattering the incoming poisonous spears into pieces!
"Boom!" Immediately afterwards...

The blue tornado, hundreds of meters in size, blew away the rain of poisonous spears and crashed straight into the ancient city wall, which was nearly a hundred meters high!

The magnificent city wall, which even a Douling expert would find difficult to carve a crater into on normally, suddenly burst open with a huge gash in the middle after a violent rumbling tremor! The ground of the entire Snake-Man Holy City shook.

at the same time,

The blue energy barrier that rose from the city wall also dimmed considerably due to the cracks in the wall.

“Go in. Queen Medusa must be at a critical moment right now. She is extremely vulnerable at this time. If you want to obtain the Strange Fire, this is your only chance…” the woman in black robes said to Dan Wang Guhe beside her.

Upon hearing this, Gu He frowned slightly.
However, after a moment of hesitation, he nodded with a somewhat solemn expression. Even though he knew it was dangerous, he didn't want to let this fleeting opportunity slip away!

"Old Yan, Feng Li, please help stop Mobas and the other two. The sect leader and I will enter the city to search for the strange fire!" Gu He said in a deep voice.

"Hehe, since you put it that way, let's go all out! Anyway, you're a sixth-grade alchemist, a big spender. The more you're injured, the more you'll be rewarded! Even a fifth-grade pill you casually toss around is enough to make people envious!" The blond giant grinned and chuckled rather brazenly.

Upon hearing this, Gu He shook his head helplessly on his handsome and refined face. Then, a pair of huge blue battle aura wings slowly emerged behind him. He passed through the crack that the black-robed woman had broken open in the energy barrier and shot towards the city.

"Divine crossbowmen! Shoot them down!"

With Mobas's command,
Instantly, dozens of metal ballistae, each over two meters tall, were drawn back, and more than forty thick, bowl-sized arrows were cocked!

"boom!!"

With a powerful burst of arrows!

With a loud 'bang,' those massive metal ballistae unleashed a tremendous shockwave that swept outwards, sending the snake-man Grandmasters responsible for drawing the strings flying and tumbling several times.

Dozens of thick, cloud-piercing arrows, carrying incomparably sharp air currents, seemed to pierce through the air itself. The violent air current vortex broke through a large vacuum zone and shot towards the black-robed woman and Dan Wang Guhe!

Upon seeing this, Furukawa's eyes narrowed.
He was well aware of the power of these special metal ballistae. Each one required two Great Dou Masters to pull it. If a Dou Ling expert was hit, he would be torn to shreds. And if dozens of them were fired at once, even a Dou Wang expert could be killed or crippled if he did not dodge in time!
Each of these special metal ballistae is extremely precious and rare, a veritable war artifact. There are only a few hundred of them in the entire Gama Empire! The Serpent People's dozens of ballistae were captured during a major war with the Gama Empire; otherwise, their Serpent People's weapon refiners would never have been able to produce such things.

"Sect Master, be careful of these... um..."

Just as Guhe was about to speak,
The woman in black beside him had already drawn her long sword. With a sword cry and a phoenix's cry, several massive cyan sword energies instantly shredded all the frenzied crossbow bolts that were rushing towards them!

Seeing this,

He felt a slight chill run down his spine. He sensed that the strength of the woman beside him was becoming increasingly terrifying. With a casual sword strike, she could easily destroy the ballista arrows that even he, a high-level Battle King, found somewhat troublesome.

"what did you just say?"

The woman, shrouded in a black robe, turned around and asked Gu He in a calm tone.

Gu He shook his head and said, "It's nothing. I was just reminding the sect leader to be careful. But the sect leader's strength is getting stronger and stronger, so it seems that the chances of getting something this time are also greater."

Upon hearing this, the woman in black nodded and said nothing more. Her strength was indeed greater than before, especially her understanding of swordsmanship, which was now even better than before. This was thanks to a certain silver-haired guy who was very good at disappearing without a word. Every sparring session gave her a new understanding of swordsmanship and some combat techniques.

"I wonder where that guy is now..." A sudden wave of longing washed over the woman in the black robe, even though it had only been two months since their last breakup.
