The Peerless Emperor-Chapter 468 - 469: Your Majesty is Truly Majestic
Having realized all this, Lin Qian suddenly opened his eyes, now clearly understanding the combat power of a Martial Artist leading an army.
Although the losses were greater than Lin Qian had anticipated, he still maintained an overwhelmingly superior attitude.
After all, these were losses incurred during single troop type combat; once multiple troop types coordinated, such losses would no longer exist.
"The battle should end now," Lin Qian said with focused intent as he looked ahead, suddenly condensing a nine-dragon Jade Seal in the palm of his hand.
Imperial power, Qiang Yu!
A golden-red Thunder Soul Power dragon emerged from within Lin Qian, writhing along his body before finally solidifying into a huge Thunder Dragon Bow, which Lin Qian firmly grasped in his hands.
The bowstring formed by Soul Power was drawn back, and the massive bow of golden-red Thunder Soul Power was pulled taut into a full circle. The roaring Thunder Soul Power condensed on the bowstring, forming a massive Soul Power arrow as thick as an arm, its contained might terrifying the five onlookers.
"Force them into a straight line," Lin Qian’s voice suddenly echoed in the minds of the demons as he smiled and looked at the twenty remaining Black Corner Clan members ahead, "To die at the hands of the supreme Emperor, is truly an honor for you." freёnovelkiss.com
At this moment, these twenty high-ranking Awakening Realm members of the Black Corner Clan had already expended too much Soul Power. Suddenly hearing the demon’s words, they didn’t manage to snap back to reality in time.
Next, a flurry of blade light came rushing in, hacking toward them.
The twenty high-ranking Black Corner Clan members in the Awakening Realm simultaneously staggered backward. With their meager Soul Power disturbing the air, they collided with the blade light, using the rebound force to rapidly retreat further back.
They had always done this before, maintaining about thirty feet from the demon to make it difficult for the enemy to hit them.
After all, the demon’s military profession was blood battling, their strength formidable, but speed was never their forte.
Seeing the twenty Black Corner Clan members he had repelled line up unwittingly into a straight line,
Hiss hiss...
The sound of electricity crackled, and Lin Qian, holding the Thunder Dragon Bow in the distance, suddenly released his grip. The golden-red Thunder Power arrow left the string, screeching sharply, aimed at the twenty high-ranking, Awakening Realm Black Corner Clan members.
This unmistakable commotion naturally startled the twenty Awakening Realm members of the Black Corner Clan. They quickly turned their heads toward the source of the sound, only to see a bolt of thunder slashing through the sky, hurtling towards them.
At that moment, what seemed to be striking them wasn’t an arrow but a bolt of lightning, ominously poised to swallow them whole.
They wanted to dodge, but Lin Qian’s arrow was too fast. By the time they realized what was happening, it had already pierced through the chest of the first Black Corner Clan member.
Puff! Puff! Puff!
The golden-red Thunder Power arrow went straight through the bodies of all twenty Black Corner Clan members in one fell swoop. The domineering golden-red Thunder Soul Power remained inside their bodies, ruthlessly exploding and mercilessly consuming them.
In mid-air, the mangled bodies of the twenty Fourth to Fifth Level Awakening Realm Black Corner Clan members turned to charred remains and plummeted to the ground.
Even after these Black Corner Clan members died, traces of the Thunder Power arrow’s path persisted in the sky.
Lin Qian lowered his raised hands, and the Soul Power condensed dragon bow also dissipated. Yue Liqun and the other five stared in horror at the sight.
They were still so far from the battlefield, and when Lin Qian suddenly said that the war should end now, they hadn’t managed to grasp what he meant, wondering what was behind his abrupt statement.
Following that, Martial Artist Lin Qian’s hands condensed Soul Power into a giant bow, and the huge thunder arrows whistled away, instantly turning those twenty Black Corner Clan awakenees from the Awakening Realm into charred corpses.
Without the need to face these twenty high-level members of the Awakening Realm from the Black Corner Clan, the demonically talented fighter felt an ease wash over him as he turned and charged toward the rest of the Black Corner Army.
With the strength of the Sixth Level of the Awakening Realm, this formidable presence stormed into the midst of the Life and Death Realm Black Corner Army like a tiger among sheep, unstoppable.
Wherever he went, corpses from the Black Corner Clan continuously fell to the ground below. At this moment, Swift Wind, dressed in blue soft armor, swiftly appeared below, recovering the Soul Devices and armor from the fallen warriors of the bloodied battle, as well as scavenging everything from the bodies of the Black Corner Clan.
Soon after, Swift Wind tossed Blazing Flame Balls onto the stripped bodies of the Black Corner Clan, incinerating them to ashes and turning them into fertilizer for the land below, ensuring they wouldn’t be left exposed in the wilderness.
Gradually, the remaining Black Corner Clan realized that all of their kin from the Awakening Realm were thoroughly annihilated, and the last thread of their resolve had completely collapsed, vanishing without a trace.
A great defeat had already begun!
The previously constructed heavy soul cannons had been dismantled by the craftsmen, ready to be utilized again when needed.
What Lin Qian now needed was to not waste a single resource. In preparation for the coming scarcity of Soul Crystals, the Huaxia Empire must capitalize on every available resource if it wished to break through.
Even the corpses of the enemy troops had to be stripped of anything valuable as spoils of war.
It was only when Lin Qian fully recognized his status and identity that he suddenly realized he was no longer in the game of his past life, where he could spend money for fun.
Now, Lin Qian knew he was the true Emperor, and such things as spending frivolously were no longer possible.
If it weren’t for Zhuge Ming being alive, managing such a vast empire alone would indeed have been too much to handle.
Lin Qian had already risen into the air, preparing to fly swiftly toward the front.
"Your Majesty, what shall we do with these things?" Yue Liqun asked, pointing toward the somewhat messy tables, seeking guidance from Lin Qian.
Without looking back, Lin Qian flew toward the front, his figure disappearing from their sight as his voice carried back from afar, "Leave them, just discard them here."
"Oh!" Yue Liqun nodded, following behind with the other four clan elders, flying toward the Mountain City ahead.
Even Lin Qian himself hadn’t anticipated that many years later, the garbage he left behind would become an extremely famous site in Ancient Forest State of the Huaxia Empire.
The Spirit Hoof Clan would often bring tourists from various clans, pointing at the table and recounting tales of their supreme Emperor’s past glory.
"Remember the past, the first battle of the annihilation war against the Black Corner Country took place right here. The battle was at a stalemate, and at that time, the twenty demon-possessed Black Corner Clan members from the Awakening Realm were rampaging and unstoppable."
"It was at this moment, our Emperor, the Renhuang Martial Emperor, suddenly slapped the table, rose to his feet, and drew his bow to aim an arrow."
"With that one arrow, the heavens and earth changed color, and the twenty frenzied members of the Awakening Realm Black Corner Clan were directly executed under that one arrow!"
After the Spirit Hoof Clan had finished speaking, the tourists visiting the site all crowded a bit closer to the table where Lin Qian had once sat, hoping to feel some of the residual aura of their Emperor.
"The Emperor is truly mighty!" A small Spirit Hoop Clan child cheered while hopping around excitedly.
Of course, all of this would be spoken of later.
