A total of twenty-four squads of one hundred men each were divided by Mei Xueyan into eight directions: East, South, West, North, Northeast, Southeast, Northwest, and Southwest. Three hundred-man squads were assigned to each direction, each charging in with three separate vectors. Furthermore, every squad advanced in a wedge formation!

Should these three smaller units converge, they could instantly form an even larger, more formidable pointed phalanx! Mei Xueyan’s command was absolute: advance continuously, with no one permitted to retreat or look aside. Just identify the direction and carve a path straight through until one met their counterpart advancing from the opposite side at the center.

Then, following the bloody swath carved by their comrades, they were to fight their way back out. Upon completing the penetration, they were to return immediately! The mission for every squad was identical; they were also tasked with notifying Eagle Drag, Sky Torn, Wind Rolling Cloud, and Tiger King.

Only after these twenty-four penetration squads had completed their operational task could everyone retreat together! Though the numbers for this breakthrough operation were small—only two thousand four hundred personnel in total—every single one was an elite master! Employing this penetration tactic was certain to inflict terrifying losses upon the alien forces!

It had a high probability of completely shattering their formation, leaving them scattered and unable to manage their flanks! The key to ensuring this tactic’s success lay with the three thousand Tiger Clan warriors already deep within the enemy’s core, alongside the remnant Soul Devourer of Sky Torn Eagle Drag and Wind Rolling Cloud, who were causing chaos in the middle! The powerful thrusts of these twenty-four squads, combined with the counter-force unleashed by Eagle Drag and Tiger King at the core, were bound to cause even greater devastation to the alien race, and at the very least, substantially alleviate the immediate pressure on the forces of Eagle, Wind, and Tiger King!

As for the remaining tens of thousands of troops, they were to advance three hundred li together and establish an impregnable defensive formation. Holding their ground, if any enemy attempted to breach the allied defense line, these warriors would be waiting in reserve, poised to deliver devastating counter-strikes! Moreover, the two other formidable fighting forces of the Leopard Clan and the Lion Clan were already prepared.

In the event that any one of the advancing units became bogged down and unable to withdraw, these two clans’ armies would surge forward with the force of a thunderclap to cover their extraction! With the speed these two units possessed, they were the ideal candidates to execute this rescue plan! Jun Moxie, Gu Han, and the Fourteenth Young Master of Nine Hells found themselves unable to suggest a single improvement to this strategy!

In this pitch-dark, dismal night environment, facing an alien race possessing invisibility skills, only a plan like this could be considered the most effective countermeasure! A strategy nearly flawless in its execution! Just then, a sudden, jarring shout from the North Island of Creation tore through the black night sky, echoing from afar.

Gu Han’s expression shifted instantly, and he was about to respond; when he saw Young Master Jun staring at him with astonishment, as if he had just discovered a new continent. The surge of anger that had just risen in Gu Han vanished instantly under Jun Moxie’s peculiar gaze; he even felt a chill run down his spine. He hurriedly looked down, checking his attire, scanning his surroundings to ensure nothing was amiss before looking up again, displeased, “Sect Master Jun, for what reason are you looking at me like that?” “Uh, Old Man Gu, the one shouting out there, isn’t that your old flame?” Jun Moxie asked with blatant curiosity.

Gu Han immediately flushed crimson, a mix of indescribable embarrassment and incandescent rage coloring his face. He never imagined Young Master Jun would ask such a question! What kind of talk was that?

With everyone present, and Qiao Ying watching besides, how could he utter such a preposterous question? Besides, the challenger was an alien, a perverted hermaphrodite… To ask something like that, wasn’t it repulsive? “What nonsense are you spouting!” Gu Han snapped back, his face ashen, “This is simply an insult to propriety!” “Uh, it’s not?” Jun Moxie’s voice carried a hint of melancholy, “That’s a pity… why isn't it?” Gu Han’s forehead was covered in dark lines.

At this moment, he completely forgot his anger stemming from the North Island of Creation’s refusal to fight, diverting all his fury onto Jun Moxie. He gritted his teeth and spat, “You… scoundrel! What in the world are you thinking!?” “Did I guess wrong?” Jun Moxie looked innocent, “Listen to how they were shouting just now.

They’re waiting for you to reveal yourself and even swore to defeat you ‘personally’ and ‘face-to-face’! Tsk, tsk, the depth of love truly brings forth the deepest hate. Old Man Gu, you truly are the model for us wolves in the debauchery world, to have developed relationships even with the aliens.

Look how resentful they are… Old Man Gu is mighty! True love is everywhere… true love knows no borders. True love is magnificent… it can incite a brutal war.

May I ask in a small voice, when you were revealing yourself back then, did you reveal the female one or the male one?” Perhaps the female one?”” “You’re talking nonsense, you…” Gu Han was on the verge of collapse. Just what kind of person was this Jun Moxie, to dare spout such nonsense about anything? Did he have any semblance of the bearing of a sect leader!

“Did I talk nonsense!? Or did I guess wrong, and it was actually the male one? I truly didn't realize.

Why is your expression so unpleasant? Did I guess wrong again? Perhaps you are indiscriminate, an all-purpose human…” “You… I… I… you…, Nonsense!

You… you brat, you’re farting!” Gu Han was so thoroughly broken down by Jun Moxie’s barrage that he broke his composure and started cursing for the first time! Everyone present found it difficult not to laugh. Mei Xueyan and Qiao Ying kept their faces tightly composed but couldn't stop the suppressed smiles tugging at their lips.

Meanwhile, Mo Wudao and the others covered their mouths and coughed loudly. The Fourteenth Young Master of Nine Hells didn't care who the principal party was—caw—he let out a loud, booming laugh. Gu Han was nearly jumping with rage.

Before fighting the North Island of Creation, he had to fight Young Master Jun first! In the distant night sky, the voice of the North Island of Creation continued its relentless clamor: “Gu Han! Come out and fight me!

Gu Han, you coward! Gu Han, come out! Fight the North Island of Creation!

Let us decide the victor!” The challenge issued by the North Island of Creation moments before had infuriated everyone on the allied side, but now, every word he spoke instantly triggered an eruption of laughter here, turning the situation into sheer entertainment. “Oh, Old Man Gu, look, look, they’re eagerly awaiting another round with you…” Jun Moxie sighed, “Hmm? Why must you decide the victor?

Perhaps when you said I was talking nonsense, you meant you weren't the that party, but the other person was? Otherwise, why decide the victor? That… person has expressed such deep longing, yet our Old Man Gu remains cold-hearted.

Truly… the endless resentment knows no end!” His words, instead of quieting things down, only made the laughter louder; Gu Han’s face flickered between green and white. Suddenly, he roared towards the outside, “What the hell are you shouting for? Look at your voice, like a castrated drake’s—what else are you shouting about?

You hermaphroditic pervert!” The voice of the North Island of Creation instantly cut off. Truthfully, this North Island of Creation was an old rival of Gu Han, having crossed swords with him countless times. He was extremely confident in his current challenge, certain that Gu Han would never shy away from a fight.

If he succeeded in this battle, matters would be settled! Yet, given Gu Han's gentlemanly nature, how could he utter such vile insults? It was completely unexpected, leaving him momentarily unsure how to proceed!

A cheer swept across the battlefield. Eagle Drag, drenched in enemy blood, swept through the masses of foes and roared with laughter, “What’s the point of your clamor, you castrated-drake-voiced hermaphrodite!” The Demon Underworld warriors and the Tiger Clan warriors simultaneously roared with laughter, “What’s the point of your clamor, you castrated-drake-voiced hermaphrodite, hahaha…” It seemed even Gu Han, the originator of the retort, hadn't expected that the insult he roared out in a fit of rage would so dramatically boost his own side's morale! This was truly an unexpected bonus.

After a long moment, a voice bursting with suppressed fury finally erupted: “Gu Han! You timid tortoise! A gentleman does not trade insults.

If you don't dare fight me, fine! But to insult me? What right do you have to insult me!

What makes you the foremost figure on the Xuan Xuan Continent!” Before the words faded, a clear, resonant voice drifted from the direction of the main camp, laced with an indescribable hint of amusement: “I say… this gentleman, um, what’s your name again? Oh, North Island of Creation, is it? I’m rather curious—what exactly did Gu Old Man do to you?

Why are you holding such a deep grudge?.” “Who are you?” The North Island of Creation immediately became wary. Although the voice sounded young, it possessed immense power; traveling several hundred li, it sounded as if the speaker were talking face-to-face, without the slightest hint of shouting. This person was definitely a master!

Perhaps even more troublesome than Gu Han. The voice from the opposite side did not answer the North Island of Creation’s question but instead asked with feigned interest, “I say, this North Island of Creation fellow, just how did Old Man Gu insult you? Huh?

Did he assault you? Or… did he sodomize you? Why don’t you just say it publicly, let everyone have a good laugh, hehe.

I love hearing stories like that. Hmm, what I mean is, justice lies in the hearts of the people. If Old Man Gu really did take advantage of you and then refused to admit it, I can help you seek redress…” The North Island of Creation was nearly choked with rage upon hearing this.

He roared, “Who exactly are you? State your name! To utter such vulgar and shameless words, do you even qualify as a significant figure!” The voice chuckled, “Why are you so shameless?

I was kindly thinking of helping you seek justice, and you curse me too? Forget it. A low-life like you certainly wouldn't understand concepts like propriety and shame.

I won't stoop to your level. As for who I am, I won't tell you. If you have the guts, come over here, and I can ‘insult’ you properly!” “Shameless!

Shameless!” Two voices belonging to the North Island of Creation cursed in unison! The strange voice and the bell-like voice intertwined, instantly ringing through the night sky. He truly hadn't expected that among the peak powerhouses of this era, such a lazy degenerate existed.

“Shameless? Who is truly more shameless?” The voice instantly turned cold: “You issue challenges in this vast darkness—what exactly is your objective? Do you think everyone is foolish enough not to see it?

If you really had courage, you would come for a frontal decisive battle! Hiding your head and tail, yet accusing others of being gutless—what kind of trash are you?! We are gentlemen; we disdain to speak of it openly, but everyone knows the score in their hearts!” As soon as this statement was made, everyone present suddenly understood!

(The sky suddenly turned dark in the afternoon. My father called, saying they were still drying things on the road at home, and urged me to rush back and help gather them… I was so frustrated. I rushed back, and just as I started collecting the pile—less than halfway done—a torrential rain began.

This rain was so sudden!” I watched helplessly as the remaining several hundred jin of wheat turned into a flooded expanse… If you haven't had enough, check out the latest chapters updated for the hottest other novels! ┊┊ ┊┊ ┊┊ ┊┊ ┊┊ ┊┊ ┊┊U
