Only the faint sound of rustling could be heard, as if a very subtle noise was rising, yet on this battlefield, it seemed that everyone could hear it.
Wang Long's heart stirred as he recalled the soldiers of the Serpent Clan during the Dragon-Snake War, those snake demons who had not even reached the transformation realm but were still unstoppable in their bravery.
From the cracks of the Valley, from the deep forests, and even from the underground ravines, suddenly more and more snake demons appeared to join the battle as if they had materialized from thin air.
The soldiers of the Human Emperor were finally completely defeated, along with all traces of battle.
Over ten thousand snake demons!
What an astonishing number, what immense combat power!
Although these snake demons did not know any Dragon Techniques, they were naturally skilled at ambush and surprise attacks! Their sharp fangs and teeth were natural weapons, combined with their extremely potent venom, which could kill with just a scratch or a bite!
Man Qianyi's trump card had finally turned the tide of the battle.
The frenzied swarm of snakes surged forth like a tidal wave from every conceivable corner; no one knew where they had been hiding or when they would strike.
At this moment, Wang Long realized just how much depth was contained within this lineage that had been passed down for thousands of years! It was certainly no less than his own Dragon City!
With the Eight Fiend Ancestor Python, over ten thousand snake demons, and thirty thousand fresh troops! The Five Great Guardian Elders, seven Supreme Elders, along with the Left Envoy and the clan leader himself—this massive force, if united with his Dragon City, truly held hope for establishing a foothold in the Kyushu Islands!
The snake swarm swept across the land like a flood, quickly clearing away all enemies.
In less than an hour, the number of enemies killed by these snake demons exceeded that of half a day's battle earlier! Even Wang Long himself was deeply impressed by this astonishing combat power.
With the Right Flank General killed and the Left Flank General captured by Wang Long and Jiang Xue together, the entire battle finally came to an end. Only the remaining snake demons were left to clean up the battlefield, occasionally tearing at some enemies who still refused to surrender.
Some soldiers who were not weak but finally felt fear began to flee. Man Qianyi and others understood that pursuing a desperate enemy was unwise and did not excessively obstruct them.
At this station in Serpent Demon Mountain Valley, the Serpent Demon Clan lost two to three thousand soldiers but killed nearly ten thousand from the combined forces of the Human Emperor and Southern State Dragon Head! The snake demons only lost a few hundred, marking a resounding victory!
This success also relied on Wang Long and Man Qianyi quickly eliminating their opponents' leaders, causing their forces to be Dragon Without a Leader and lose command; they also confiscated their greatest reliance, the Mysterious Heaven's Dark Wheel, significantly reducing their combat power.
Regardless, this battle continued until dusk fell and gradually came to an end.
The Southern State Dragon Head sensed danger and attempted to escape secretly, but was swiftly caught by Wang Long, who grabbed him by the neck and threw him in front of Jiang Xue and Man Qianyi.
Jiang Xue glanced at Wang Long and said in a deep voice, "Elder Du Yinping, along with several Guardian Elders, clean up the battlefield and reorganize the various protective formations within the Valley. There must be no mistakes! The remaining Supreme Elders will accompany me to the Main Tent for a meeting!"
At this moment, everyone worked together without daring to show any signs of defiance, immediately responding affirmatively.
Jiang Xue smiled slightly at Wang Long, nodded, and gestured for him to take a seat.
Wang Long returned the smile and entered the Main Tent alongside Jiang Xue and several Supreme Elders.
Meanwhile, there were also the captured subordinates of the Human Emperor, the Left Flank General, and the Southern State Dragon Head Mount Zhenshan.
Jiang Xue took her seat as the host and invited Wang Long to sit in the position to her right. Zhang Mingyi, Li Xinghe, and Liu Chengyan stood silently behind Wang Long with solemn expressions.
The Supreme Elders sat on either side. An elder in black robes with a long beard escorted Yue Zhenshan and the Left Flank General into the tent and threw them harshly onto the ground.
"Are you the Left Flank General of the vanguard army attacking my Kyushu Islands under the Human Emperor?" Jiang Xue asked in a solemn tone, her expression serious and calm.
"That's right, but don't think you can get any information from me! I won't say a word!" the man replied coldly, his voice steady without a hint of tremor.
Jiang Xue sneered, "What difference does it make whether you speak or not? Your so-called vanguard army has been defeated; our general has been killed, and your treasures have been confiscated. Your army is either dead or fleeing! What right do you have to act like a hero here?"
The Left Flank General snorted disdainfully and said, "Do you think this is over? If it weren't for my Human Emperor and Marquis fighting in the Southern Sea, could your little Kyushu Islands amount to anything? But don't be anxious; that so-called Southern Sea won't be able to withstand my Human Emperor's Army!"
"Moreover, with Lord Cui dead, it's likely that the Marquis will personally send someone here soon! By then, the entire Kyushu Islands will fall, and all of you will become captives!"
"The Southern Sea, huh... I see. Since you're so stubborn, Supreme Elder, temporarily detain him! We will interrogate him slowly later!"
One of the elders agreed and took the Left Flank General away.
The remaining Southern State Dragon Head Mount Zhenshan was pale and trembling slightly.
Jiang Xue looked at Wang Long, indicating that he should conduct the interrogation. After all, this Southern State Dragon Head was at least nominally one of Wang Long's subordinates.
Wang Long shook his head. Jiang Xue understood his intention; he wanted to establish his authority within the Serpent Demon Clan. She smiled slightly and said in a deep voice, "Yue Zhenshan! Since you are also a person of the Kyushu Islands, why do you turn against us and help the Human Emperor's subordinates to attack our Serpent Demon Clan's stronghold? What is the reasoning behind this?!"
Although Yue Zhenshan felt some fear, he still coldly snorted and said, "That's right! I am from the Kyushu Islands! But I am not blind! The trends of the world are clear for anyone to see! The current Human Emperor is exceptionally talented and has already unified the seven continents! Even Yingzhou, which is closest to us in the Kyushu Islands, has completely fallen! The next step will be here!"
"Although the Human Emperor's army is still struggling in the Southern Sea, everyone knows that once that battle concludes, they will march eastward immediately! How can this small Kyushu Islands possibly stop his advance?!"
"Since this is the case, why should I resist?! Why should I go against the heavens? Opposing the Human Emperor's forces is no different from striking a stone with an egg! It is seeking death! You two—one is the new clan leader of the Serpent Demon Clan, and the other is the spiritual leader of the Kyushu Islands, the new head of Long City! Yet… yet you have not considered the lives of the people in the Kyushu Islands at all!"
"Resistance? That will only lead to more deaths! More innocent people! What I am doing is also to comply with heaven's will and to protect the lives of the people in the Kyushu Islands!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Long was filled with rage and could not help but shout angrily, "Since when did surrendering to the enemy become a matter of righteousness?! You claim to care for the people's lives, yet you do not realize that if the Human Emperor truly occupies this place, how could he possibly let it go easily?!"
"In the extreme north, on the Northern Sea Continent! The common people all worship the Mystic Heaven Sect and revere Xuantian Daozun as their highest deity. Because of this, they offended the Human Emperor. With a single command, corpses filled the streets and rivers ran red with blood! The entire Mystic Heaven Sect was destroyed overnight; all temples were demolished, and anyone who showed even a hint of resistance was immediately executed! This is how the Human Emperor operates!"
"I, from the Kyushu Islands, am known as the source of all things and a place of beginnings. Every household worships the Dragon God! If it truly comes to pass that we fall under Human Emperor's rule, would he allow everyone to continue like this? It would inevitably be like what happened to the Mystic Heaven Sect—temples destroyed, cities ruined, thoughts imprisoned, forced beliefs imposed… Is this really what you wish to see?!"
"As a traitor and an internal spy, you shamelessly speak of righteousness and prioritize the people. I truly feel ashamed for you! In Long City, how could someone like you be appointed as Southern State Dragon Head? It’s simply absurd!"
