Chapter 867: Soldiers at the City
Chapter 867: Soldiers at the City
Feeling Xu Chuniang’s unsuspecting gawking, Phoenix Fei Crow shrunk her neck and tried to lower her presence.
But on the contrary, the line of sight staring at it was like a fire, calling it no place to hide.
The Phoenix Feather Crow finally lost its temper and glared back, “Ga!”
Xu Chuniang didn’t hide her dislike, “Even a puppet can talk, you actually can’t talk.”
Phoenix Fei Crow tilted her head, her tiny eyes greatly puzzled, not knowing what a puppet was.
Xu Chuniang took out the vermilion buntings that were stowed away in the mustard space, “This is it, a dead thing that is refined through a special method using magic mines and magic materials, after refining the living soul into it, it is between life and death.”
The Phoenix Feather Crow was not happy, it heard and understood that what she meant just now was that she resented that she was inferior to a dead thing!
“Ga!”
The Phoenix Feather Crow carefully stretched out its claws and violently slapped towards the Vermilion Bunting.
Daring to say that it was inferior to a puppet, it could slap this little thing to pieces with a single slap!
Xu Chuniang laughed, rushing to collect the Ember Bunting before the Phoenix Feather Crow could slap it.
“Your appearance is too eye-catching, think of a way to tell others not to see where you came from.”
The Phoenix Feather Crow acted as if it didn’t hear and turned its head to slowly comb its feathers.
Xu Chuniang raised an eyebrow, “No? Then I’ll have to do it myself.”
At those words, Phoenix Feather Crow looked at her warily, her expression defensive.
However, in its divine soul, it had three types of demonic thought brands inscribed by Xu Chunniang.
As soon as she moved her mind, the Phoenix Feather Crow simply fainted and fell to the ground with a thud.
“I’ve already given you a chance, it’s you who don’t cherish it.”
Xu Chuniang tsked lightly and nonchalantly plucked up the Phoenix Feather Crow’s fur.
Large swathes of feathers were ripped off by her, and the Phoenix Feather Crow’s oily and shiny plumage instantly became much thinner.
That is, the Phoenix Feather Crow was unconscious, if it was awake, it would have to be infuriated again.
After plucking the feathers from its body, Xu Chuniang turned out some white bones from the mustard space and ground them into powder, then dyed the feathers white.
Finally, she split these white-dyed feathers into two parts, one of which was glued back onto its body.
The other part was made into a new pair of white feathers and integrated into the Phoenix Feather Crow’s flesh and blood.
Taking a glance at her work, Xu Chuniang was very satisfied.
Nowadays, this magic pet of hers had a black and white color all over its body, and was born with two pairs of wings, one large and one small.
Because the feathers had been plucked once, its body shape was slightly different from before.
But …… it seems that it is still almost something.
Xu Chuniang stared at its head for a long time, and with the remaining bone powder, she dyed its head in black and white horizontal stripes as well.
After such a change, its temperament and appearance changed greatly, and no one who looked at it could connect it with the Phoenix Feather Crow.
The Phoenix Feather Crow woke up, a trace of bewilderment showing in its eyes, and with its new look, it had an indescribably comical feeling.
Xu Chuniang coughed lightly, stifled a laugh and averted her eyes, taking out a piece of blood food from her mustard space and tossing it to it.
The Phoenix Feather Crow opened its mouth to receive the blood food before realizing something in hindsight, opening its mouth wide in disbelief as the bloody object in its mouth fell to the ground.
Its eyes were red with anger, shivering in aggravation, and its feet were a little unsteady.
If it wasn’t restricted by the brand in its soul, it really wanted to fight for its life!
Xu Chuniang comforted, ”In fact, your appearance nowadays is very imposing, and the moment the onlookers see you, they will be scared out of their wits and run away from the wind.
Moreover, others won’t be able to recognize you as a Phoenix Feather Crow, so wouldn’t it be a lot safer?”
Phoenix Fei Crow looked at her skeptically, “Ga?” Xu Chuniang nodded her head vigorously and fussed.
“Moreover, you have two wings, a real pair and a fake pair, if someone mistakes this pair of white wings for the real ones and thinks that destroying the white wings will be enough to hit you hard, won’t they fall into the trap?”
When Phoenix Feathercrow thought about it, it seemed to be the case.
Then it accepted the changes and happily picked up the blood food on the ground and ate it.
Seeing that the Phoenix Feather Crow was so good at fooling around, Xu Chunniang was also relieved.
It was, after all, its own magical pet, an existence that could deliver its back on the battlefield, and there was no need to use force for a problem that could be solved with a few words.
Two days later, the conquest came as scheduled.
The Yellow Sand Demon King, who hadn’t shown his face for a long time, led several Harmonization Stage Demon Cultivators and a group of elites under his command, leading all the cultivators in the city towards Dark Night City.
Before her departure, Xu Chuniang had thought that the cultivators in the city would be integrated into the demon army.
Only later did she realize that there was no need for integration at all, as all the cultivators were automatically assigned to different legions according to their cultivation level.
The cultivator with the lowest cultivation level, the Spirit Transformation Stage cultivator, walked at the front of the group, and would be used to fight in the front line.
The slightly stronger Void Refining Stage cultivators were used as the backbone of the force, to attack and defend.
As for the Yellow Sand Demon King, as well as the other Harmonization Stage powerhouses and those elites, they would be the key to deciding whether the battle would be won or lost.
The Scorpion Woman took a deep breath and bowed to Xu Chuniang, “My lord, it’s time for me to go to the front, and over the past two days, thank you for your magic crystals and care.”
She had secretly estimated that she should be able to cultivate to the middle stage of Transformation Spirit while she took advantage of the rush to finish absorbing the remaining magic crystals.
“Well, after the fight, find a remote place to hide first, don’t die casually.”
The Scorpion Woman laughed bitterly, when a real fight broke out, where would there be a peaceful place?
However, an intermediate Transformation Spirit cultivation was always a bit easier to live than an early Transformation Spirit.
Moreover, for her, as long as she broke through the middle stage of Transformation God, even if she really died, it wouldn’t be much of a problem.
After seeing the Scorpion Woman leave, Xu Chuniang slowly withdrew her gaze and blended into the legion of Void Refining Stage cultivators.
Thinking about the upcoming battle, the group of Void Refining Stage cultivators were all excited.
“Haha, finally I can get my hands dirty, the ban in the city these past few months almost suffocated me.”
“Hold back for a few more days, when the soldiers arrive at Dark Night City, we’ll be able to kill a painful battle!”
Xu Chuniang lowered her eyes to hide the thoughts in her eyes, no wonder in March before the war, the Yellow Sand Demon King would order that the killing in the city would be prohibited.
In addition to avoiding internal conflict, it was more important to suppress the blood-shedding nature of the cultivators in the city, so that they would be able to play a stronger role in the attacking battles that were to take place in the near future.
The tiger and wolf divisions that had been starved for a long time would be able to explode with a strong killing power once they smelled the flavor of blood.
The devil army marched extremely fast, and after twelve days, the army was close to Dark Night City.
The Yellow Sand Demon King ordered all the cultivators to station five hundred miles outside the city, and after a day of rest and recuperation, then the Divine Transformation Stage Cultivators would lead the attack on the city with all their might.
Huangsha City’s army was moving, so it was naturally impossible for Dark Night City to be unaware of it.
As a matter of fact, a few months ago, they had received news that the Yellow Sand Demon King intended to attack Dark Night City.
In the palace at the highest point of the royal city, the Dark Night Demon King sat on top of his throne, his gaze crossing over all the cultivators in the palace.
“At most one day, Huang Sha will lead a large army to attack the city, what do you guys think?”
