The cheers from the Boulder City made Maitreya's face turn ashen.
He actually blocked it!
With his mighty Zenith Heaven Realm strength, he was actually blocked by a guy who was not even in the Zenith Heaven Realm.
He was indeed surprised, but he had to take revenge for his junior brother, especially since there were only a few disciples of the Western Sect.
Now, one of them had died. How could he tolerate this?
Just as Maitreya was about to unleash his full strength, a terrifying aura instantly rose from Boulder City.
Kong Xuan attacked!
He didn't target Maitreya. He only took back Xiangyu, who was almost squeezed dry.
However, the rising aura was undoubtedly a form of intimidation.
Although Kong Xuan did not unleash her full strength, judging from the aura she emitted just now, her strength was definitely not lower than the peak of the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal Realm.
Therefore, Maitreya, who had originally planned to attack, suddenly stiffened, and his expression instantly became uncertain.
Although he had already stepped into the Zenith Heaven Realm, he had yet to gather the three flowers. He had only opened the Man Flower and the Earth Flower, and was one step away from the peak of the Zenith Heaven Realm.
Therefore, after sensing Kong Xuan's aura, Maitreya immediately gave up the idea of continuing to attack.
With a flash, he disappeared into the air.
On Boulder City, Xiang Yu, who was brought back by Kong Xuan, was severely exhausted, but he still managed to stand in front of Di Xin.
"Your Majesty, I was entrusted with a heavy responsibility and failed to defeat all the enemies. Please punish me!”
Looking at Xiang Yu's serious face, Di Xin naturally wouldn't punish him. Not only was Xiang Yu innocent, but he also had merit.
He had killed a powerful enemy in three moves and blocked an attack from a Perfected Golden Immortal without losing. How could he be guilty of such a glorious battle record?
With a smile on his face, Di Xin helped Xiang Yu up and said,""Why do you have to belittle yourself? You have made a great contribution today, so I will reward you heavily.”
"I'll remember your contribution for now. I'll reward you when we get back to Zhaoge.”
Emperor Xin praised him, but Xiangyu did not insist.
After sensing that the morale of the soldiers on the city wall had been restored, Di Xin did not stay any longer. He led his men back to the camp.
The reason why they had taken action this time was to resolve the morale problem.
After all, the two armies had been fighting for almost a month, but their generals were forced to the point where they did not even dare to go up the city walls.
If this continued, the army would collapse sooner or later.
Therefore, the soldiers needed a great victory to restore their morale.
According to Di Xin's original plan, he just wanted to fight a random battle and win.
However, he did not expect Xiangyu to be so powerful. It was a complete surprise that he had killed an enemy expert.
As for Maitreya's attack, it was an accident.
Therefore, after achieving his goal, Di Xin naturally wouldn't stay any longer.
As for why he didn't send Kong Xuan to attack and pursue them, it was because it wasn't the time yet.
After realizing the identities of the people in front of him, Di Xin gave up on the idea of keeping them here.
The Western Religious Sect might be able to bear the pain if they lost one person, but if they lost everyone, Di Xin was afraid that the two Saints would turn against them.
Thus, Di Xin's target had already shifted to Dongyi. This time, he wanted to completely destroy Dongyi and improve Great Shang's national fortune while also increasing his own strength.
Jiang Hengchu was no longer in the commander's tent, and the group of generals had been dismissed by Di Xin.
Now, only the three of them were left in the commander's tent.
In the previous battle, Xiang Yu had only been over-exhausted and did not suffer any injuries. Moreover, he had already fused his body and Yuan Shen into one, so his recovery speed was much faster than others.
Therefore, other than his pale face, he was fine.
Looking at the two of them, Di Xin pondered for a while and said,"I, do you have any good ideas to keep the Dongyi army here?”
Among the two, Xiang Yu was the most loyal, while Kong Xuan was completely tied to Great Shang because of Xuan Niao. Therefore, Emperor Xin did not hide his intentions from the two of them.
Kong Xuan frowned when he saw Di Xin looking at him.
"Your Majesty, I can fight against experts, but I can't slaughter an army.”
A trace of disappointment flashed across Di Xin's eyes, but it was understandable.
Immortal cultivators paid attention to karma. It might be possible to kill ten or a hundred people at will, but to kill hundreds of thousands of people in one breath.
The terrifying karma alone was enough to destroy any immortal cultivator.
Especially now that he was in the midst of the God Ascension Tribulation, it was simply courting death to be contaminated with such heavy karma.
Therefore, although Di Xin was disappointed by Kong Xuan's rejection, he wasn't surprised.
Xiang Yu, who was standing beside Kong Xuan, stood up immediately after Kong Xuan rejected him." As long as no expert stops me, I'm willing to share your worries!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Di Xin smiled bitterly. He knew that Xiang Yu was willing, but Di Xin wasn't!
After all, Xiang Yu was a character summoned by the system and was loyal to him. Once Xiang Yu made a move, his Dao path would be ruined.
He could bear to let Kong Xuan do it, but he couldn't bear to let Xiang Yu do it. In the end, it was still a matter of loyalty.
However, there seemed to be no other way except for Xiang Yu to make a move, unless he was willing to wait for Wen Zhong to arrive with his army!
At that time, with the cooperation of the army, there would naturally be no more worries.
Just as Di Xin was having a headache, an electronic voice rang in his head.
" The monthly Godfiend Conscription begins…"
On a new day, I beg you to throw out thousands of flowers and hundreds of evaluation votes!
