The mysterious world: Start working hard from the beggar camp!

Chapter 530: Outwardly Strong, Inwardly Weak, the Aristocratic Alliance Failed

"Crackling..."

Only about an incense stick of time had passed, and under the fierce attack of the two million imperial soldiers, the city defense formation of Changzhou City could no longer hold and shattered!
"Wang Chengen, Lu Jiude, Cao Huachun, you lead the Jinyiwei and Dongchang Qi Refining Realm teams, follow me!"

Seeing that the city defense formation in front of him was quickly blown up by the concentrated fire attack launched by his own army, Emperor Chongzhen was overjoyed. A cold light flashed in his eyes and he shouted to several trusted eunuchs nearby.

"The Witch God Temple is coming out!"

With a thought, his natal divine weapon, the Witch Temple, flashed out and turned into a size of over a hundred feet, hovering above his head. It dropped a blood-red light curtain, blocking the oncoming psychic shells and crossbows. He leaped up, and his body swayed several times in the air before he flew to the city wall that was over a hundred feet high.

"Traitor, I'll smash you to death!"

Before Chongzhen's men landed on the ground, they saw dozens of frightened enemies in the Qi Refining Realm who were about to jump off the city wall to escape. They immediately shouted angrily, and the Witch God Temple, like a blood-red mountain, fell on their heads!
"No!"

"This is Chongzhen! He actually hid in the vanguard army and entered the city first!"

"It's over. We've been locked onto the opponent's innate divine weapon. We can't escape at all!"...

These dozens of Qi Refining Realm masters on the defenders' side were precisely the chief servants of the Songjiang Prefecture's aristocratic families.

They never expected that as soon as the city was broken, Emperor Chongzhen suddenly appeared, was the first to enter the city, and happened to run into them!

"boom……"

There was no suspense at all. Under the critical attack of Emperor Chongzhen's innate divine weapon, these dozens of Qi Refining Realm masters were unable to resist at all, and couldn't even avoid it.

They had neither the protection of the military formation nor the protection of their own divine weapons. They could only watch helplessly as the opponent's divine weapons fell and crushed them into pieces while wailing.

No! After the huge shock wave that erupted from the Witch God Temple swept through, not even a slag was left.

Only a big hole was left on the spot, witnessing how terrible Chongzhen's violent attack was.

"Second brother, hurry up!"

Xie Youming, the eldest son of the Xie family, who lived several miles away, planned to escape as soon as the city was broken.

Seeing Chongzhen's unstoppable fighting power, his face turned pale, and he sent a message to his second brother Xie Liming, who was staying under the city wall and ready to retreat, "We can't defend this Changzhou city anymore. We must leave immediately!"

“Rather than dying here in vain, it is better to preserve a useful body and save the manpower and foundation of our Xie family!”

After saying this, he took advantage of the fact that Emperor Chongzhen's mind had not yet locked onto him, and quickly deployed his body skills, transforming into a stream of light and shooting towards his own team under the city wall.

"Qian Kun Tu, show up!"

"Killing array magic, activate!"

Xie Youming flashed to the core hub of his own army's formation, and immediately activated his full spiritual power, connecting his energy with that of his soldiers, and activating his killing power.

"Roar!"

The blood-colored air rose up in the sky, and in an instant it turned into a giant winged tiger beast, which was protected by the divine shield above its head.

"go!"

"We're leaving now!"

"The soldiers here can only wish for the best for themselves!"

The brothers Xie Youming and Xie Liming controlled the giant tiger beast to leap up, and turned into a stream of light, flying towards the direction of East City!

"Damn it!"

"These rebels are so decisive, I'm afraid they have already planned to abandon the city and flee?"

Such a big commotion was naturally sensed by Chongzhen on the city wall. He cursed angrily, "Look at the artifact scroll floating above the head of the giant tiger beast, it must be the traitor of the Xie family!"

"How despicable! If I hadn't been so busy, I would have torn you into pieces!"

There was a hint of helplessness in his words. He could only watch the other person fly away quickly and then disappear.

The imperial army had just broken into the city, and there were still more than one million enemy soldiers in Changzhou City to be killed. Before the war in the city was over, it was impossible for Chongzhen to leave the battlefield to pursue the Xie family's army.

There was no other way but to go after him alone. Even if I caught up with him, I wouldn't be able to defeat him.

If we lead a strong army to pursue them, the soldiers will not be able to free themselves.

"Kill me!"

"Leave no enemy warriors alive!"

Chongzhen, who was somewhat annoyed, loudly issued a killing order and led hundreds of Jinyiwei and Qi-refining masters from the Eastern Depot. A moment later, all the enemy soldiers on this section of the city wall were killed. Then he jumped off the city wall and launched a massacre on the fleeing enemy troops!

"The two brothers of the Xie family ran away with their clan soldiers!"

"It's over. Without the top masters of the Xie family, how can we possibly be a match for the imperial army?"

"Damn Xie family, I curse you to die a miserable death!"

"Run! If you don't leave now, will you stay and wait for death?"...

As soon as the city fell, the Xie brothers led the clan soldiers to quickly abandon the city and flee, instantly destroying the morale of the soldiers defending the city.

They were all filled with shock and anger, but could only flee in all directions helplessly. The city of Changzhou suddenly became a mess, like a pot of boiling water.

“Sun Chuanting, now that the Xie family team has escaped, we can’t let other enemies in the city escape again!”

"We must try our best to kill the warriors from these aristocratic families in order to reduce the pressure of the subsequent southward operation!"

"Your Majesty is right. Only by destroying as many of these rebels as possible can we quickly achieve our plan to unify Jiangnan."

Zhou Yuji and Sun Chuanting each led an army of 500,000 and rushed into the city almost at the same time. Seeing the enemy that had begun to collapse, it was hard to tell whether he was angry or happy. Zhou Yuji immediately shouted to Sun Chuanting who was nearby.

"Exquisite Pagoda, go!"

After saying that, Zhou Yuji activated the divine artifact pagoda obtained from the secret realm of Zijin Mountain in Jinling and ordered the disbandment of the military killing formation. He ordered the soldiers to form teams of 10,000 people and act separately. At the same time, he jumped up, broke away from the large force, and chased alone towards a group of about a dozen enemy Qi Refining Realm masters.

Under the current circumstances, it is no longer necessary to continue using the military killing formation to attack, as it will instead affect the efficiency of killing the enemy.

After all, the enemy had lost their will to fight and fled in all directions, filling the streets like headless flies.

As a sixth-level strong man, he also has his own innate divine weapon. His body movement speed is incomparable to that of the fourth or fifth-level Qi Refining Realm practitioners.

"You still want to escape?"

"Suffer to death!"

In just a few blinks of an eye, Zhou Yuji caught up with a dozen enemy Qi Refining Realm practitioners who were in a panic. Without saying a word, he activated the Linglong Pagoda and swept over, blasting the opponents on the spot, turning them into blood mist that spread everywhere.

After killing these enemies, Zhou Yuji did not stop for a moment and continued to chase after a pair of enemy Qi Refining Realm masters. In his divine sense, after the family team led by the Xie brothers ran away, there was no level 6 strongman left in this big city.

This means that with his level of cultivation, he cannot find an enemy who can fight against him.

Having said that, the point now is not that there is no strong enemy, but that there are too many enemy warriors fleeing in all directions, and the entire Changzhou city is in chaos.

In this situation, it is not an easy task to completely eliminate the enemy warriors in Changzhou City, which is hundreds of miles in radius. The workload is enormous.

"Hahaha……"

"The warrior armies gathered by these aristocratic families are indeed a mob. Once they are defeated, they will immediately scatter like birds and beasts!"

Lu Jiude killed several Qi Refining Realm enemy warriors with one strike, and couldn't help laughing, "This kind of traitors, no matter how many there are or how deep their foundation is, there is nothing to be afraid of!"

"These bastards are fine when they have an easy fight, but once they encounter a strong enemy, their true colors will be exposed and their ugly behavior will be exposed!"

Fortunately, before he took action, he still thought that these reserves of money and materials far exceeded those of the rebel families in the imperial court, and each family was unfathomable.

As a result, this is it?
Although Lu Jiude had been the commander of the Yongwei Camp and had experienced many wars, this was his first time fighting against the coalition forces of the aristocratic families.

After the Ming court moved south, he was responsible for forming the court's navy and no longer served as the commander of the Yongwei Camp.

This time Emperor Chongzhen urgently transferred him here, but it turned out that the hero was not able to use his talents. The enemy army, which seemed very powerful, collapsed at the first touch.

However, although he said this, his attacks became more and more ruthless and cruel, and wherever he went, there was a bloody storm.

Among all the eunuchs in the Ming Dynasty, Lu Jiude's military talent and fighting ability were among the best, and he was always known for his cruelty.

He was relatively relaxed here, but Wang Chengen and Cao Huachun, who were heading towards Dongcheng District, unexpectedly encountered strong enemies after they broke away from their Qi Refining Realm team.

This extremely powerful enemy was none other than the Yangzhou salt merchant representative team headed by Qian Deli.

There were nearly a hundred of them, all masters of the Qi Refining Realm, including more than twenty level five practitioners.

Qian Deli and his companions could never have imagined that as soon as Changzhou City was breached, the Xie brothers would be so unethical and sell out their teammates as if it were commonplace.

The two brothers of the Xie family, without even saying hello, led nearly 200,000 elite soldiers of the Xie family and fled from Changzhou City at a rapid speed without looking back.

This has caused great hardship to financial sponsors like Qian Deli, who have been used to a life of luxury.

Their reaction was not slow, but it was still a step too late.

The main reason was that the million-strong army collapsed so quickly after the city was broken that it was simply too much to watch and left people dumbfounded.

Wang Chengen and Cao Huachun, who were in pursuit, quickly discovered this special group of deserters. How could they let them escape?

Both of them were at the initial stage of sixth stage cultivation. They used their full speed to chase after each other desperately, and naturally caught up with each other quickly.

After the two sides fought a fierce battle, Wang Chengen and Cao Huachun discovered that this group of nearly a hundred deserters were actually all composed of Qi Refining Realm masters.

Although the two of them are much more powerful than each other, they are ultimately alone and powerless.

In addition, neither Wang Chengen nor Cao Huachun had their own magical weapons, and the enemy was fighting back desperately, so for a while, the two sides were evenly matched and fell into a stalemate.

"Cao Huachun, Wang Chengen!"

"Why are you two fighting so hard? The court is now in decline, what else is there worth fighting for?"

Qian Deli knew these two eunuchs and had even dealt with Cao Huachun several times before. In a hurry, he tried his best to persuade them, "As long as the two of you turn a blind eye and let us go, we will soon be given a lot of benefits!"

"I travel thousands of miles to seek official positions just for money. Isn't that what you eunuchs do?"

To be honest, the level six cultivation level that Wang Chengen and Cao Huachun displayed really shocked them.

These two eunuchs had unexpectedly broken through to the sixth level without anyone noticing, surpassing the strongest combat power of most of the aristocratic families in Jiangnan.

Such an outrageous thing could happen again, which shows how miraculous the recent adventure of Emperor Chongzhen was after he suddenly woke up.

Most of these great families in Jiangnan, wealthy merchants, and tycoons control more or less secret realms and spiritual places, but there are only a handful of top-level strongmen who can break through to the sixth level of cultivation.

However, the scene before them completely overturned their cognition. These two eunuchs had undoubtedly demonstrated their cultivation level at the early sixth level!

"Humph!"

"Without further ado!"

Wang Chengen immediately shouted angrily, "You traitors, you are all disloyal and unrighteous. Do you think that everyone in the world is as shameless as you?"

"Since the day you rebelled, you have become our sworn enemy!"

"Suffer to death!"

Wang Chengen raised his hand high, and a rune seal flashed out, turning into a huge hand that covered the sky, and slapped the opponent fiercely!
"Boom..."

Although his angry attack did not break the enemy's battle formation, it made the enemy's formation shaky.

"well said!"

At this time, a figure flashed over. Before the person arrived, the voice enveloped the area, "These disloyal and unrighteous people, living in this world for even one more day is a waste of food, just go to the eighteenth level of hell!"

"Witch God Temple, go!"

The visitor was none other than Emperor Chongzhen.

After he entered the city, he was looking for the enemy's Qi Refining Realm masters to kill. He happened to pass by this place and heard Wang Chengen's loyal and frank words. He felt very relieved.

The current enemies have been sentenced to death.

Emperor Chongzhen had reached the peak of the Qi Refining Realm, and his power when he manipulated a top-level innate divine weapon was naturally extraordinary.

"Boom..."

The blood-red palace that looked like a mountain instantly appeared above the enemy's battle formation, and then crushed down fiercely, instantly destroying the battle formation composed of nearly a hundred fourth and fifth level masters.

"kill!"

Chongzhen succeeded in his attack, and with a thought, the Temple of the Witch God drew an arc and returned to the sky, then crashed down again!

"No!"

"Your Majesty, you shall not die well!"...

The Yangzhou salt merchants' representatives, headed by Qian Deli, were so desperate that they only had time to curse before they were crushed to death by the opponent's innate magical weapons. They were turned into meat paste at the bottom of a huge pit with a radius of one hundred feet that appeared on the ground!
Facts have proved that without the protection of a large-scale military formation and his own divine weapon, even a hundred fourth or fifth level masters would not be a match for Chongzhen.
