Lěng Yè looked down from above, his gaze cold and stern as he fixed it on Lěng Shénjì below. Dressed in magnificent armor and holding a gleaming golden mace, Lěng Shénjì glared up at Lěng Yè with burning anger, his voice booming and fierce: "You are courting your own death! To act so arrogant in front of my army is sheer suicide! Behind me stand tens of thousands of elite troops, what can a single person like you possibly do?! And you actually killed Lěng Yōuyōu, showing complete contempt for everyone!" He then loudly commanded, "All men listen up, form formations immediately and prepare for attack!"
At Lěng Shénjì's command, the soldiers moved swiftly, wheeling forward rows of powerful siege cannons. Some muzzles fired razor-sharp crossbow bolts, while others spat explosive projectiles of staggering destructive power. If one were struck by these formidable siege weapons, even a master like Lěng Yè would find it difficult to escape unscathed.
Lěng Yè looked on coldly, knowing well that facing an attack of this scale alone was indeed difficult to withstand. After a moment of thought, he decided to temporarily retreat, returning to Silver-Marsh City and You-Radiance City to gather his forces before making further plans. After all, engaging tens of thousands of elite troops in a direct confrontation was far too risky. Even if there was a chance to cut down a commander like Lěng Shénjì, he was unwilling to try it lightly.
