Chapter 504: Chapter 227: The Gate Scam, the Third Wave, and Yuwen Dao of Great Xia
“Stop him!”
Hou Ming shouted urgently, and upon hearing his voice, Hou Ying and Hou Bing moved swiftly to the side of the iron gate to block Wu Tianxing’s entry.
However, how could their speed match the well-prepared Chen Yingba?
The moment he heard Wu Tianxing’s voice, Chen Yingba gestured to the people behind the iron gate to open it a bit more.
As the gap in the iron gate widened slightly, he rushed directly to the gate, and with a swift slash of his broadsword, drove away Hou Bing and Hou Ying, who were charging towards him.
Clang……
A staff and sword struck simultaneously, colliding violently with the broadsword. The terrifying impact forced Chen Yingba back five or six meters, blood surging from his chest, uncontrollably spewing from his mouth.
“Hahaha, Old Wu, well done!”
Instead of being enraged by the injuries from Hou Bing and Hou Ying, Chen Yingba wore a broad grin because, at the last moment, Wu Tianxing had successfully entered the iron gate.
“Close the gate!”
Reacting quickly, Chen Yingba saw Hou Bing and Hou Ying were following and charging towards the iron gate. Without even wiping the blood from his mouth, he shouted orders to the 200 people on either side of the gate who were frantically pulling the chains.
“Hoo… ah…”
The 200 people responded, and under the command of their leader, began exerting force to pull the gate back up.
“Hehe……”
However, at this moment, Wu Tianxing suddenly let out a cold laugh.
“Old Wu, why are you laughing?”
Chen Yingba asked instinctively, a bad premonition rising in his heart.
“Opening it is one thing, closing it is not so simple!”
Wu Tianxing let out a loud laugh as Lin Ye, whom he was carrying, suddenly came to life and charged straight towards the chain on the left side of the gate.
At the same time, Wu Tianxing rushed towards the chain on the right side.
Whoosh……
Lin Ye, as strong as an elephant and with fists like dragons, struck the left side chain, crushing five or six people at the front into pulp with his Cold Resistance Level’s terrifying impact. His continued punches flung more than a dozen people away, scattering the over hundred people holding the chain on the left into chaos.
Poof……
Even more exaggerated was Wu Tianxing, who slashed out over a dozen sword strikes, cutting the dozen or so people at the front of the right-side chain clean in half, then continued his assault. The fearsome sword blade frightened the people in the back into dropping their chains and fleeing in all directions.
The sudden dramatic change left not just Chen Yingba, but everyone present completely stunned.
Clang, clang, clang……
The chains, uncontrolled, began automatically retracting.
Simultaneously, the iron gate, which had opened a gap of barely two meters, began to open gradually.
“Wu Tianxing, you traitor, ahhhhh!”
Chen Yingba’s furious roar finally snapped everyone present back to reality.
More than just yelling, Chen Yingba cursed Wu Tianxing while drawing his broadsword and charged first towards Lin Ye on the left side of the gate.
The reason was simple. He saw the wide wound on Lin Ye’s chest still bleeding, clearly showing that he was still in a severely injured state.
Kill Lin Ye first, then free up his hands to deal with Wu Tianxing!
“Do not retreat, Earth-digging Realm, fill in the gaps, hold the chain, if the iron gate opens fully, we are all doomed; the rest of you, attack, kill Wu Tianxing, the traitor!”
Chen Yingba drove back the rampaging Lin Ye with one slash and then recklessly continued his charge while also issuing orders to the others.
His response and adaptability were of the highest order.
But Wu Tianxing’s betrayal was too sudden.
“Hahahaha, brothers, charge!”
Meanwhile, Hou Ming and Zhaoyang’s group, ready outside the gate, would not miss such a good opportunity.
Hou Ming led the charge, seizing the moment while Chen Yingba was busy, and rushed over; closely followed by Hou Ying and Hou Bing; thereafter, a large number of Zhaoyang’s forces already gathered in the Number One Path outside the gate.
Swish, swish, swish……
On the Hive Main Zone’s side, some people quickly reacted, shooting arrows towards the gate to try to stop those outside from entering.
But without the chains controlling the iron gate, the gap widened even further. Due to Wu Tianxing and Lin Ye’s chaos, the area behind the gate was already in disarray, and their arrows couldn’t form an effective barrage to stop the incoming forces.
The first one to rush in, Hou Ming, wasted no time and charged directly towards Lin Ye, apparently worried about the injured Lin Ye encountering problems and helped him face off against Chen Yingba;
Hou Bing, who entered after, went to the right side to assist Wu Tianxing, who was being besieged by a host of Hive Earth-digging Realm warriors;
The last to enter was Hou Ying, wielding a long staff, looked at the swarm of Hive troops behind the gate, and with a ferocious grin, shouted to the people of Zhaoyang behind him:
“Hahahaha, brothers, this is liberating, they killed so many of our people in the tunnels over the past two days, finally it’s their turn, slaughter them to your heart’s content!”
“Kill!”
“Those over seven hundred can’t die in vain, slaughter these Hive bastards.”
“Brothers, charge!”
……..
Zhaoyang’s people had clearly been stifled in frustration in the tunnel over the past two days.
Now, having finally breached the main zone, their pent-up hatred was unleashed in an instant, each roaring as they charged at the Hive Guards behind the iron gate, their morale soaring to the extreme.
Meanwhile, the Hive troops, shocked twice by the traitorous Wu Tianxing and the resurrected Lin Ye, combined with the disturbance from the two Cold Resistance Levels, were not only in complete disarray but their morale had also plummeted.
