Chapter 1707 — The Battle of Triumph
The Herdsman of the Wasteland · Page 2 of 4
On the other side, the Woodcutter Sage withdrew his right hand and raised his left, crooking a little finger. In Carefree Village, the Heavenly King Tian Shu gulped down a mouthful of wine, shouldered the Imperial Gate Divine Saber, and laughed. "Lads, follow me to kill the enemy!"
He came running barefoot, and behind him tens of thousands of Carefree Village's soldiers ran barefoot after him, charging down from above upon Zuoshu Ye Shuhuai's army!
Zhu Shaoping acted at once, shouting, "Youshu, send troops and intercept the Nether Capital Heavenly King!"
Youshu Yue Wangyuan led a fleet, hoisted sail, and set forth; upon the tower ships the light of the sun blazed and shone far out. The Nether Capital Heavenly King Tian Shu cultivated the demonic way of the Dark Capital, and under that sunlight his demonic qi sizzled and crackled!
The Woodcutter Sage's brow twitched; his hand clenched into a fist, and he raised his index finger.
As his index finger rose, Qinghuang led Carefree Village's Heavenly Dragon Division in a charge upon Youshu's army.
Zhu Shaoping sneered. "Before the Celestial River Navy, any divine dragon is a worm! Liujia, attack — wipe out that old ghost Qinghuang!"
At Liujia's sortie, the Woodcutter Sage let out a breath. "Zixi, you go!"
Yan Yunxi laughed softly, mounted her donkey Lü Zheng, and led a great army charging at the Celestial River Navy under Liujia's command, crying, "Form ranks!"
"The Zixi Heavenly Master looks like a woman."
The Martial Heavenly Master Zhuo Cha praised her from the heart. "But her fighting strength is truly boundless! Woodcutter, isn't it my turn yet?"
At Zhu Shaoping's side, army after army was dispatched; the Woodcutter Sage ordered the armies of the Thirty-Three Heavens of Carefree Village to meet them, and even sent out the Shen clan of Qin Hanzhen's line — but Zhuo Cha alone he did not send.
Zhuo Cha clenched his fists and stared at the back of his head.
At last, the Woodcutter Sage raised a thumb, and the Divine King Lang Wan at once led the Creators in a headlong strike at the central camp of the Celestial River Navy!
At Zhu Shaoping's side only his personal guards remained. Though their gods and demons were many, they could hardly hold off a Heavenly Venerate like Lang Wan!
Zhu Shaoping laughed aloud and let Lang Wan's army of Creators come. When the two sides were no more than a hundred li apart, suddenly, upon the ships beside him, great curtains were drawn back, and a giant divine weapon appeared — the Taiji Vein of the Ancestral Court!
Zhu Shaoping bowed and said with a smile, "I beg Lady Taiyin to come forth!"
Lady Taiyin rose slowly from the Taiji Vein, reached out, seized the Taiji Vein, and went to meet Lang Wan.
Zhu Shaoping laughed from afar. "Wentian Ge, you still have Di Yiyue hidden in Carefree Village. Why not bring her out, and see whether this generation's Kaihuang can break my army!"
The Woodcutter smiled faintly and bowed. "I beg Your Majesty to come forth!"
From the Ark of the Other Shore where the Heavenly King Di Shitian was, a woman suddenly flew into the air, cleaving like lightning through the Heavenly Court fleet surrounding the Ark, and came straight for Zhu Shaoping!
Zhu Shaoping laughed. "So the Kaihuang is here! A pity — you are no match for the traitor Shen Ye."
Behind him, another curtain was drawn back on a tower ship, revealing more than ten volcanoes of the Ancestral Court, refined into weapons. Zhu Shaoping's personal guards formed their formation and drove the divine weapons, hemming in Di Yiyue.
Zhu Shaoping, wholly at ease, flicked his sleeve and said with a smile, "Wentian Ge, what is on these dozen ships behind me? You likely do not know — on these ships are the Celestial River Pagodas, the elite of the elite! And besides the Celestial River Pagodas, there are the Twelve Great Weapons of the Heavenly Court! And yet — do you still have any troops left?"
