King Ember's Journey to Tevat

Chapter 491 Changes in the Shogunate

"Those purple guys, one of you should recognize me, right?" Walking out of the rising sand, Yi Yan looked at the surprised shogunate troops on one side of the battlefield.

Many of these panicked faces were ones that Yi Yan had seen before - they were once recruits at Tianling's training ground, and now they were finally able to test the results of their training on the battlefield.

But looking at their trembling eyes and their blood-stained bodies, it was obvious that their training did not include psychological training.

"This...this guy is the one who demolished the Tianling Fengxing Mansion!"

"Didn't the General impose a divine punishment on him? Why can he still stand here well?!"

"He...he accepted divine punishment!"

……

There was a lot of discussion, and the appearance of embers made many people in the shogunate retreat.

These people had personally experienced the strength of Ember, and now seeing him again on the battlefield, in addition to being surprised, they couldn't help but feel a little more fear in their hearts.

A person with this kind of strength is enough to change the situation on the battlefield!

"Mr. Ember, what are you..."

While the shogunate army was still panicking due to the appearance of embers, a figure walked out of the resistance army on the other side. It was none other than Goro, the general of Kaijijima.

"I also want to ask you, what are you doing?"

Yi Yan turned his head and glanced at Wu Lang. The dark peeping slit made Wu Lang tremble.

"The trouble caused by the shogunate has nothing to do with Kaijijima!" Goro's throat rolled several times, and he quickly explained to Ember.

This war was initiated unilaterally by the shogunate and had nothing to do with their Kaiji Island.

Ember nodded upon seeing this, then he raised his head and shouted loudly at the shogunate crowd in the distance: "Where is the shogunate? Those two boys from Kujo, come out!"

"Haha, Lord Kujo is in ill health, so I'm sorry that I can't contact you."

"Besides, we don't have anything to say!"

"All of them! Charge!"

Cold snorts came from the purple crowd in the distance. Unlike the rebels, the leader of the shogunate directly ordered the attack to continue without even coming out to see the embers.

"Oh? Has there been a change?" Yi Jin felt a little clear when he heard that the voice was so unfamiliar.

No wonder the behavior of the shogunate has changed so much. It turns out that the coach has been replaced. In this case, everything can be explained.

"Belongs to Haiji Island, prepare to engage the enemy!"

Hearing the war cry again, Wulang stood up the hair on his body almost instinctively.

With his pupils raised and his teeth bared, he quickly waved to the sergeants behind him, instructing them to change their formation.

"Kill!!!"

The military orders were like mountains. Even though they knew that there were embers of terrifying strength in front of them, the soldiers of the shogunate still strode forward.

"It's so noisy!" Hearing the continuous killing sounds, Yi Yan plucked his ears. He lowered his head and saw the red blood at his feet, and kicked him a few times in disgust.

"You are responsible for the mess you caused!"

The red light flashed in Ember's hand, and as his palm danced, the blood flowing on the ground seemed to have a life of its own and began to move.

Thorns of Punishment - heretical magic of banished sinners. The most hated magic in the academy.

It can damage itself with thorns of sin, summon thorns of blood that crawl away from the ground, and attack from the enemy's feet. Can be cast continuously.

Sinners with eyes pierced by thorns found blood stars in their eternal darkness.

The Blood Flame Magic should have been guided by his own blood, but such a trivial matter would not cause Ember to use his own blood.

So he used the blood flowing on the battlefield.

The blood all over the battlefield started to move. They quickly climbed up the feet of every shogunate like vines.

Climbing, entangling, and stabbing, all three were completed almost in an instant, so fast that even the charging sergeants could not react. When there was stinging pain all over their bodies and their vision was filled with blood red, they were shocked to find that they had been tightly covered by a bloody cage of thorns at some point.

The blood flowed out along the spikes, and then turned into part of the thorn cage, further growing the cage.

The more fierce the people struggled, the more blood flowed out, and the faster the cage grew.

Realizing this calmed even the craziest soldiers.

In an instant, blood rose from the ground, and a forest of thorns grew on the battlefield.

The commotion on the battlefield suddenly subsided, and the rebels who had prepared and formed a formation to meet the enemy did not even react.

"What? Do you want to try it too?" Hearing the heavy breathing behind him and the sound of gold clanging against armor, Yi Yan tilted his head and asked.

"No...don't dare!" Wulang immediately trembled when he met Yu Yan's gaze. After stiffly clasping his fists at the embers and nodding, he shouted to the sergeant behind him:

"Haizhi Island belongs to us, retreat three miles and set up camp on the spot!"

"Back three miles and set up camp on the spot!"

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

As soon as Wu Lang finished speaking, the rhythmic drums and trumpets, mixed with the sound of the crowd retreating, resounded throughout the battlefield.

"That's pretty well done." Seeing the red behind him recede like a tide, Yi Yan nodded with satisfaction.

"That's natural. If the shogunate hadn't sent troops, we wouldn't have made such a fuss." Goro nodded quickly.

"Okay, you'd better take care of the people below you, lest they come out and cause trouble again."

Ember glanced at the retreating resistance army. The valuables inside were no less than those in the shogunate army.

"I'm going to see the two boys from the Kujo family and find out what happened. Before that, I hope nothing big happens here."

After a simple instruction, Yi Yan disappeared on the battlefield regardless of whether Wulang agreed or not.

"I know... I know!" Looking at the embers that disappeared instantly, Wu Lang slowly uttered three words from his mouth for a long time.

……

Flying from the battlefield towards the Kujo Formation House, the most eye-catching change along the way was the many more camps and military flags on the ground.

The military flags were fluttering and the camp was solemn.

The atmosphere of Kannazuka makes people become cautious when they see it.

But not only did Yan Yan not feel nervous, on the contrary, he even wanted to laugh.

This was not because he looked down upon the shogunate, but because the purple light rising from the tartar sand to the sky was much weaker than before.

Seeing that the heart of the furnace that was about to explode was vented, Ember finally felt better.

It seems it’s not all bad news this time!

The purple light still spreads, but now there's no embers to worry about. After crossing the Tatasha, he came to the Kujo Formation House.

As the frontline base camp of the shogunate army, even when the entire front is mobilized, a considerable number of sergeants are still stationed in the camp.

There is nothing strange about this, it is normal to leave some room for it. Otherwise, the enemy could penetrate the base camp with a single carbine, which would be ridiculous.

What really caught Ember's attention was the unreasonable distribution of troops.

Logically speaking, the sergeants left behind should be used for security patrols. But most of the troops in the Kujo Formation House were gathered around a large tent, which looked very strange.

"This……"

"There shouldn't be any big killer weapon here, right?" Yi Yan rolled his eyes and speculated in his heart.

In a military camp where heavy troops are to be guarded, there must be some good stuff from the shogunate army hidden there.

Thinking of this, Yi Yan couldn't wait to hide his figure and sneaked in secretly.
