Douluo Continent: The Twin Sons of the Styx River, Shaking the World and Destroying the Heavens

Chapter 273 Tang San Arrives

A hint of fear flickered in Xu Jiujiu's beautiful eyes.

One person isn't scary; the real problem is that they are all god-level powerhouses.

There is no room for retaliation in the face of a god-level powerhouse.

They still chose to fight to the death.

However, Xia Die was in no hurry to make a move.

"Commander Wang, let's launch a surprise attack tonight."

"Yes."

In the early hours of the morning, the night still enveloped the earth, and all was quiet.

"Royal sister, please eat something. You haven't eaten for a day and a night." At this moment, Xu Yunyun gently walked into the room with a lunchbox. Seeing Xu Jiujiu, who looked much more haggard, her eyes were filled with heartache.

She had never seen her elder sister so disheveled and exhausted. She knew that the current situation was extremely unfavorable for the Star Luo Empire. As an imperial princess, her elder sister had taken on the heavy responsibility of leading the army after the disappearance of Duke Baihu. The pressure on her was like a mountain pressing down on her, so heavy that it was hard to breathe.

However, his current cultivation level is only at the Soul Sect realm, and he is merely a small battalion commander in the army. He cannot truly be of much help to Xu Jiujiu in terms of military strategy or strength.

Therefore, she could only show more care and concern for her sister-in-law in the details of daily life, which was one of the important reasons why she insisted on coming with the army.

She didn't want her elder sister to face this complex and difficult situation alone. As long as she was by her sister's side, at least in her spare time, her sister would have someone to confide in. "Thank you for your hard work, Yun'er. Let's eat together!" Xu Jiujiu forced a smile, trying to make herself look more energetic.

Bringing Xu Yun along did bring her a lot of comfort; at least during this difficult time, it eased some of the pressure in her heart.

Otherwise, she really couldn't imagine how long she could hold on under such immense pressure, or when she would be completely crushed.

Just as the two were about to have their meal, Xu Jiujiu's expression suddenly changed drastically. She keenly noticed that the food on the table had begun to tremble slightly. At the same time, the temperature in the air suddenly rose, and a strong sense of crisis welled up in her heart.

"Enemy attack!" Almost simultaneously, soldiers shouted outside the tents. Then, a piercing alarm, like a sharp blade, ripped through the silent night and echoed throughout the entire camp.

In an instant, violent explosions erupted one after another, shaking the earth and plunging the entire camp into chaos.

"Yun'er!" Xu Jiujiu instinctively shielded Xu Yun behind him, grabbed her hand, and rushed out of the tent.

Just as they rushed out of the tent, a fireball as hot as the sun, accompanied by rolling heat waves, fell from the sky and crashed straight down on their heads.

At the critical moment, Xu Jiujiu extended her right hand without hesitation, and the dazzling starlight instantly gathered, forming a solid barrier above them.

The surging flames crashed against the starlight barrier, producing a series of ear-piercing sounds, but they could not break through the barrier. Instead, they were gradually absorbed by the barrier and eventually dissipated without a trace.

It was the unique isolation attribute of the Star Crown Martial Soul that absorbed the temperature of the flames, preventing the fireball from exerting its full power.

After blocking the fireballs that attacked them, they finally raised their heads and looked up at the sky. Hundreds of silvery-white lights darted back and forth like agile dragons, while various powerful soul-guided cannons and soul-guided rays rained down like a storm, relentlessly attacking the entire military camp.

In an instant, flames soared into the sky, shouts of battle and explosions mingled together, and the scene was chaotic.

The Star Luo Empire's army reacted extremely quickly, with the powerful members of the Soul Master Legion taking to the air to meet the enemy in the sky.

The three powerful figures, Giant Hammer Douluo, Shattered Star Douluo, and Giant Strength Douluo, instantly released their powerful martial souls, their soul power surging and their aura overwhelming.

Seeing that several Title Douluos were no match for the attacking enemies, the other members of the Soul Master Legion quickly assisted, stabilizing the battle and preventing an immediate defeat. Moreover, more Soul Master Legion members arrived and began setting up formations. Once they were complete, even Title Douluos would be at risk of being captured. "Your Highness, are you alright? I'm late, please forgive me." Just then, an aged figure appeared beside Xu Jiujiu like a ghost.

This person was none other than Nebula Douluo Manyi. She scanned her surroundings warily, showing no intention of immediately going forward to help Shattered Star Douluo and the others fight the enemy. Instead, she focused intently on protecting Xu Jiujiu and Xu Yun behind her, carefully safeguarding their safety.

"Grandma Manyi, we're alright. What happened? How many enemies are there?" Xu Jiujiu asked anxiously, eager to know the enemy's situation amidst the chaos.

Nebula Douluo Manyi quickly and clearly explained the situation to Xu Jiujiu: "It was Mad Bull Douluo Wang Yiheng of the Sun Moon Empire, and then the Fire Phoenix Soul Mentor Group also came."

"Your Highness, I will cover your retreat first."

"Grandma Manyi, no."

Surrendering before even fighting is not her style.

Tang San's absence should be attributed to the danger of the beast tide.

Outside Shrek City, the swarming beasts resembled a vast ocean, making the massive Shrek City appear somewhat frail in comparison.

The Beast-Suppressing Tower emitted a red light, signifying the highest level of alert.

Countless soul-guided cannons on the walls of Shrek City were aimed at the horde of beasts.

This time, it wasn't Di Tian from the original story who was in charge.

It was presided over by the Dragon God Gu Yuena, and all the beasts came, but the Di Tian Department suppressed them from the front.

Di Tian is now a first-level god who has been blessed as a "Destiny Walker".

Even the most powerful god-king might not be a match for him.

Yan Shaoshi's face was extremely ugly as he looked at the densely packed group of divine beasts.

This is the greatest crisis Shrek Academy has faced in ten thousand years. If Shrek Academy is not careful, it may be destroyed in the beast tide.

Shrek City's defenses are no weaker than those of any other country's capital.

However, their opponent is the entire Star Dou Great Forest.

With the beast tide personally led by a legendary beast god, no one on the continent could stop it.

Moreover, now even spirit beasts have become gods.

They were facing a group of mythical beasts.

"Di Tian, ​​must the Star Dou Great Forest and Shrek Academy be locked in a life-or-death struggle?" Yan Shaozhe asked.

"You dare to challenge us to a fight to the death? It's time to settle accounts with Shrek Academy for all the things they've done to our Star Dou Great Forest over the years. I don't know how many of our people's blood we've spilled on our hands."

Don't even think about asking for help; today will be the day of your Shrek academy's demise.

Yan Shaozhe's face became even more unsightly. Since Di Tian had already launched the beast tide, he would not compromise because of anyone's words.

When the enemy is at the gates, it's not so easy to make them retreat.
