This level of control over the ground was nothing to Anthony. He only needed to make the ground softer. Then, he would pull down the bridge of bones. It was easy and efficient.

The Blood Devils who were traveling on the bridge of bones sank into the ground. No matter how they struggled, they were unable to break free.

This was the most frightening part of the mud and swampy terrain he created. When you started to sink, there was nowhere for you to hold on to. Beneath you was soft ground and there was no support beside you. No matter how much you struggle, you would simply be wasting your energy.

Furthermore, their comrades would not care about them. They simply stepped on their bodies and then these Blood Devils formed the new bridge of bones.

The cruelty of war was that the lives you treasured in times of peace became worthless. Lives were like weeds that were gathered by the scythe of a reaper.

Lu Shu’s Sparrow Shade looked for the flight paths of the Blood Devils and killed them. He wanted to prevent them from suddenly descending to the city wall and attacking the Imperial Dragon Soldiers.

Lu Shu and Lu Xiaoyu’s attacks helped the Imperial Dragon Soldiers to buy time. Before the Blood Devils walked on the bridge of bones and entered the battlefield once again, they could become better acquainted with their defenses!

At first, the Imperial Dragon Soldiers were evidently panicking. The Blood Devil army did not have any weapons to attack the city wall. Instead, they used the bodies of their comrades as ladders and climbed up. They were not afraid of death!

The Blood Devils in the vanguard were not as ferocious as they had imagined. They were simply Rank Four Blood Devils. But the Imperial Dragon Soldiers were fighting these devils, who seemed to use every part of their body as weapons, including their claws and teeth!

The Blood Devils who had been attacked with the tridents tried to struggle and attack the Imperial Dragon Soldiers. Needless to say, their magical helmets were of great use now. If not, the Imperial Dragon Soldiers would have died very easily!

Chen Zuan used his flying sword and killed the Blood Devils who were flying in the sky. A Blood Devil, whose body had been cut into half, still tried to struggle and fight him. When the Blood Devil crawled to Chen Zuan’s leg and tried to bite him, Cheng Qiuqiao’s flying sword slashed through its head.

Cheng Qiuqiao stabilized his breathing. “Don’t be careless!”

When Chen Zuan saw the severed Blood Devil, he immediately grew angry. The murderous intent that had been concealed in his heart suddenly surged forth. Chen Zuan was someone who had gone through many near-death experiences!

The Imperial Dragon Soldiers finally knew what kind of enemy they were facing. They had to be even more ferocious than their enemy!

Suddenly, a strong Blood Devil appeared from among the vanguard troops. Before the Imperial Dragon Soldiers could react, it dragged one of the Imperial Dragon Soldiers outside the palace!

“Mark!” Someone shouted in shock!

Beneath them were all Blood Devils. If they were dragged down by the Blood Devils, only death awaited them!

But Mark, who was being rapidly dragged down by a Blood Devil, suddenly laughed. “Damn it! Brothers, I will go first!”

The next moment, Mark gave up on his trident. He concentrated all the energy in his body and threw his trident at the vanguard troops. The trident went through the bodies of over ten Blood Devils, but it showed no sign of stopping!

Mark still tried to kill his enemies while being dragged down! Yes, you had to be more ferocious than the Blood Devils!

At this moment, the Blood Devil was still intertwined with Mark and trying to pull him to the ground. The trident was useless at this distanc and so, Mark forcibly twisted his body. The edges of his armor poked the Blood Devil and he then leaned on the Blood Devil to break his fall!

Crash! When Mark fell to the ground, the Blood Devil, who had been trapped in between Mark’s knees, turned into limp meat!

Mark stood up among the Blood Devils and laughed out loud. “Damn it! Did you really think that you would kill me? Come!”

He shouted angrily among the crowd of Blood Devils. He was like a hero who was embarking on an unknown path and wanted to drag these countless Blood Devils along with him on his journey!

There were some people on the city wall who wanted to jump down and help Mark, but Li Liang coldly reminded them, “Whoever jumps down will go against my orders. Are you dumb? Have the many wars you have gone through taught you nothing about life and death?”

Someone scolded him. “Li Liang, I will not save you even if you fall down there!”

Li Liang laughed out loud. His voice was ice-cold and cruel. “Saving me is also going against orders. Don’t come down, I would be busy killing Blood Devils then!”

When the Blood Devil army saw how ferocious Mark was, they took two steps back. Then, they surrounded him, Mark did not flinch. He had to find the best opportunity to kill the Blood Devils!

Even the Blood Devils were not afraid to die. Could an Imperial Dragon Soldier like him lose to them? Even if his head was chopped off, only a scar would be left. He would still be an Imperial Dragon Soldier serving the King of Gods in his next life!

But at that moment moment, someone grabbed his collar and threw him to the city wall. Li Liang reacted quickly and caught him.

Mark panicked. He looked down. “Great Lord!”

No one expected Lu Shu to step into a void, appear among the Blood Devils, and throw Mark back up!

Mark panicked. He could die, but how could he allow his Great Lord to be in danger because of him?! The Blood Devils were about to attack Mark, but only Lu Shu was left there.

At this moment, the flaming Seizing Thief suddenly appeared in Lu Shu’s hands. There was a bright flash of sword energy. Then, all the Blood Devils in the vicinity immediately disintegrated!

But Lu Shu did not relax. He slashed his sword in a mysterious direction. No one knew why Lu Shu attacked there, as there was nothing there.

The next moment, a broken void appeared. A master tried to step out of the broken void and kill Lu Shu, but the void was immediately sealed by Lu Shu!

Everyone waited. The void opened and closed. It was an opportunity that the master had been waiting for, but he never made it!

This scene boosted the morale of the Imperial Dragon Soldiers. They were also shocked. Lu Shu’s sword caused even a master to retreat.

Even the Blood Devils, who were not afraid to die, started to retreat. No Blood Devil dared to approach Lu Shu!

Lu Shu did not continue to fight. Instead, he returned to the city wall. Mark rushed over. “Great Lord, I’m sorry.”

“There’s nothing to be sorry for.” Lu Shu smiled and kept Seizing Thief in his celestial map. “It’s not the right time for the lives of you, Imperial Dragon Soldiers to be exchanged for theirs. Go back to where you are supposed to be.”

Li Liang had a complex expression on his face. He knew that it was extremely risky for Lu Shu to do so. There was a master who wanted to kill Lu Shu. But he suddenly understood that if Lu Shu did not do so, it would no longer be Lu Shu.

“Great Lord, you are not suitable for war,” said Li Liang with a sigh.

Lu Shu laughed. “I know.”
