A rare opportunity

Gu Changfeng had been waiting for this moment! Seeing the firing rate of the spiritual cannon slow down, he knew that the gunner had exhausted his strength. He immediately waved his hand and shouted to the saint-level monks standing behind him:

"Fuck them all!"

After a moment of hesitation, nearly two hundred saint-level monks flew up!

Li Yu detected the enemy's actions, but his expression remained stern and calm! Hou Rujing, Mu Chengqi, and Zhu Shoubing also noticed the enemy's actions and immediately adjusted the muzzles of their guns, ready to fight! However, Zhu Shoubing had overexerted himself and was now somewhat exhausted!

Yin Zijuan was in charge of the overall situation. On the one hand, she had to command the monsters to block the ground troops. On the other hand, she also kept a close eye on the gunners.

Although some of the enemy's ground forces had broken through the artillery fire and reached the city walls, and although most of them were individually stronger than the monsters, they were met with the monsters' reckless resistance, and for a time the battle was evenly matched!

When she discovered Zhu Shoubing's situation, she acted decisively, ordering Xiao Qinglong to take his place. While Xiao Qinglong's accuracy with the cannon wasn't as good as Zhu Shoubing's, his inner strength was far greater! This way, while his accuracy was slightly off, he could ensure the cannon could fire continuously!

At the same time, seeing that the enemy's surviving ground forces had already rushed into the range of the spiritual cannon, she immediately ordered the gunners who still had the strength to point all the guns at the sky! She ordered the rest of the gunners to quickly recover.

Of course, there were only a few gunners left who still had the strength to operate the cannon. There were only Hua Zirong and Qian Youzu! In other words, there were only five spiritual cannons currently aimed at the sky!

The saint-level monks in the air were getting closer and closer, but Li Yu stood on the top of the city like a rock, motionless!

Mu Chengqi stared at the gradually approaching black shadows. When they came into range, he shouted:

"Set off the fire!"

Five shells landed among the monks one after another and exploded! Instantly, screams were heard, and then figures were seen falling to the ground one after another!

Although these cultivators were all saint-level cultivators, they also panicked for a short time! Just as they were about to retreat, they heard Gu Changfeng's stern voice:

"If you don't want to die, charge at me! They're already at the end of their rope! As long as you fight to the death and get close to the spiritual cannon, it will be useless and victory will be ours! If you dare to shrink back, don't blame me for being merciless!"

Whether they were cultivators from the Xianxia Sect or other factions, they all knew Gu Changfeng's character. Moreover, with the precedent set by the ground troops, who would dare to stand still after hearing his words? They immediately summoned their courage and continued their charge.

Gu Changfeng was very satisfied with the performance of these Saint-level monks! At least the situation that happened to the ground troops did not occur. He immediately paid attention to the battle situation in the air while investigating the situation of the enemy gunners.

When he discovered that the enemy's shells were becoming sparse, he was overjoyed! He immediately jumped up and rushed straight to the city wall!

Li Yu saw his own spiritual cannons becoming increasingly intermittent, and knew the gunners were exhausted! He then sensed that Gu Changfeng had personally dispatched them, and immediately ascended into the air with the vulture, the white rabbit, and the ape demon. Each of them raised their weapons, staring at the swiftly approaching opponents, ready for battle!

Although the White Rabbit was terrified, he knew this battle was a matter of life and death for the demon race! If they didn't fight to the death, the entire demon race would be in danger of being exterminated! Therefore, he forcibly suppressed his fear and prepared to fight his opponent to the death!

After the baptism of fire, the Xianxia Sect had lost half of its nearly 200 Holy Scriptures! Even so, there were still nearly a hundred people! According to common sense, it was simply a pipe dream for Li Yu and his four men to stop the attack of a hundred people!

However, it was Li Yu standing before them! After all, Li Yu possessed the True Fire of the Sun! As a result, the hundred-man team abruptly stopped in front of Li Yu and the others, not daring to move! Even though Gu Changfeng repeatedly urged them, no one dared to move forward!

The enemy didn't move, and neither did Li Yu! He simply stared at those people coldly. Wherever his gaze reached, those he looked at involuntarily took two steps back. There was no other way; his Sun True Fire terrified them!

Li Yu welcomed the confrontation. After all, the longer it dragged on, the more time Hou Rujing and the others could regain their internal energy! While he wasn't afraid, he was outnumbered. With only four people, it would be difficult to stop a force of nearly a hundred. If they were allowed to charge into the city, not only would the monsters, but even Hou Rujing and the others would be in danger!

Seeing that those Saint-level cultivators were actually afraid of Li Yu like a tiger, Gu Changfeng couldn't help but be furious! He immediately chopped down the nearest Xianxia Sect elder with his sword and roared:

"Hurry up and come at me! Otherwise, this man will be your example!"

Not to mention those cultivators, even Li Yu's eyelids twitched when he saw this! He couldn't help but feel anxious! This Sect Master Gu was so cruel to the elders in his sect, who would dare to disobey his orders? It seemed that a fierce battle was inevitable! He immediately whispered to the Three Saints of the Demon Clan:

"Stay close to me! Don't leave me more than fifty feet away!"

Li Yu ordered this because his Sun True Fire could cover an area of ​​a hundred feet. However, to prevent the three demon saints from getting hurt, he asked them to stay closer to him for safety reasons so that he could rescue them in time.

Although the big white rabbit had made up its mind to fight to the death, it didn't want to die yet. Therefore, upon hearing Li Yu's order, it immediately agreed. Although Li Yu said within fifty feet, it tried its best to get closer to Li Yu, less than twenty feet away!

Although the ape demon was the weakest of the three saints, its courage was not weak at all! It naturally looked down on the big white rabbit's actions and couldn't help but roll its eyes at it. It immediately snorted coldly and consciously stood about fifty feet away from Li Yu.

The vulture knew that the big white rabbit was timid but didn't care. He walked to the other side of Li Yu and stood fifty feet away.

The monks, frightened by Li Yu and hesitant to move forward, saw that Gu Changfeng had actually used his own sect's elders as a scapegoat to urge them forward. They shuddered in fear and rushed towards Li Yu and the Three Saints of the Demon Clan, shouting hastily.

However, despite the noise, the speed was very slow! After all, no one wanted to be the first to stand out! No one wanted to be reduced to ashes after death! Therefore, although they seemed to be charging forward, in reality, it was just bluffing! Although the flying noise was loud, the speed was also not slow. However, most people only moved sideways, and few actually rushed towards Li Yu!

Seeing that these people dared to disobey orders, Gu Changfeng was furious. He rushed forward, swung his long sword, and with two "swishes", two more monks died under his sword! He then shouted:

"I think you're courting death! If you dare to back down again, I won't mind executing you all! Damn Duan Kaishan! Do you want to die too?"

Now that I've been named, there's no way I can hide anymore! If I keep hiding, Gu Changfeng might really kill me! Inwardly, I cursed: "You said you'd deal with Li Yu by yourself, why are you a coward now? And you're asking us to lead the charge? Doesn't that mean we'll become his cannon fodder?"

I was a little confused! Was it worth it for him to do this? If all of us died here, what would happen to the Xianxia Sect in the future? Relying on him alone? Was the Sect Master's brain really gone?

Honestly, if it meant preserving the Xianxia Sect's strength, Gu Changfeng would never have driven the Xianxia Sect's elders and disciples to such a risk. However, it was clear that the other cultivators were now keeping an eye on the Xianxia Sect's cultivators. If the Xianxia Sect cultivators didn't move, they wouldn't move either! Even if he took action, it would have little effect!

Although he boasted, he wasn't entirely sure. After all, the Sun's True Fire was extraordinary! After all, it was said that Li Yu's strength was unfathomable! Similarly, he wanted those cultivators to consume Li Yu for him, creating an opportunity for him to kill him in one fell swoop!
