Chapter 556: The End of the Road

Beneath the walls of the Imperial Capital, the two long Dragons formed by the military formations’ Aura continuously collided.

The Dragon Blood Iron Cavalry and the Lushu Iron Cavalry were the two strongest Iron Cavalry units in the Ten Thousand Demon Country.

Among them, the Dragon Blood Iron Cavalry was battle-hardened.

Meanwhile, the Lushu Iron Cavalry was a unit She Qiqi had secretly trained at the border.

The training methods used for the Lushu Iron Cavalry were almost identical to those used for the Dragon Blood Iron Cavalry last year.

She Qiqi had even made numerous improvements to the original training methods.

The two Iron Cavalry units, one red and one white, constantly clashed and struggled; every charge resulted in dozens or even hundreds of casualties.

As soon as someone died, others would immediately step in to fill the gap.

Not a single person faltered, as if they intended to keep charging until the enemy was completely wiped out.

After this great battle, whichever Iron Cavalry unit remained would undergo a massive transformation!

The Demon Emperor was also extremely shocked by the Iron Cavalry unit his own daughter had established.

He never imagined his daughter could train such an army.

However, the Demon Emperor felt that the ultimate victory would be his!

His Dragon Blood Iron Cavalry was battle-hardened.

This Lushu Iron Cavalry had certainly not experienced as many battles as the Dragon Blood Iron Cavalry.

And in battlefield combat, experience carried immense weight.

But soon, the Demon Emperor realized he was wrong.

This Iron Cavalry was very strong!

Moreover, their combat experience was extremely rich.

For a moment, the Demon Emperor even felt a slight sense of helplessness and regret in his heart.

He couldn’t help but think how wonderful it would be if his biological daughter were a man.

If that were the case, then perhaps, even if his daughter weren’t the Di Eldest Son, he would still have bestowed the position of Crown Prince upon her.

However, this thought was merely a fleeting one.

It was likely impossible.

In truth, even if his daughter were a man, he probably wouldn’t have trusted her.

Because after that incident occurred, a rift had formed between him and She Qiqi.

Even…

If Qiqi were a man, his daughter might not have even lived until now.

She Qiqi would likely have been eliminated by him long ago, eliminated at any cost!

Of course.

It was also possible that She Qiqi wouldn’t have needed to plan for so long.

If she were a man, countless people would have followed her.

Being a woman had placed far too many restrictions on his daughter.

Perhaps he and his daughter wouldn’t even have had the chance to meet on the battlefield.

He would have been overthrown long ago.

While the Demon Emperor was momentarily distracted, She Qiqi launched another charge against his Dragon Blood Iron Cavalry.

The massive silver Dragon Aura continuously pushed back the blood-colored Dragon Qi.

The horses of the Dragon Blood Iron Cavalry retreated continuously; this was the first time in the Demon Emperor’s life that he had seen his own army in constant retreat.

When two ace Iron Cavalry units of closely matched strength charge at each other, the moment one side retreats, the outcome is already decided.

The Lushu Iron Cavalry launched another fierce attack against the Dragon Blood Iron Cavalry.

Because this retreat created a gap, and She Qiqi keenly noticed it, she immediately ordered the gap to be torn wide open!

The Dragon Blood Iron Cavalry began to grow increasingly chaotic.

This gap was torn wider and wider by She Qiqi, becoming a bloody mess.

She Qiqi’s Lushu Iron Cavalry pierced through it like a long blade.

In less than the time it takes for half an incense stick to burn, this Dragon Blood Iron Cavalry unit was broken and scattered.

But just then, the Dragon Blood Iron Cavalry displayed unprecedented resilience.

They continuously regrouped.

Even when scattered into small units, they were like numerous sharp knives, attempting to constantly carve flesh from the Lushu Iron Cavalry’s giant Dragon.

But it was already far too late.

How could She Qiqi possibly give up such a great advantage?

The soldiers of the Lushu Iron Cavalry hacked away, one blade after another, continuously severing the heads of the Dragon Blood Iron Cavalry’s riders.

As for the horses, they were naturally kept intact.

After all, while the riders of the Dragon Blood Iron Cavalry could be trained, those warhorses were truly precious.

Within the Imperial Capital, seeing that the situation on the Demon Emperor’s side was dire, bursts of fireworks continuously exploded in the sky above the city.

These fireworks were signals, meaning to hurry to Your Majesty’s side and protect Your Majesty.

At this moment, all the troops within the Imperial Capital rushed out of the city gates to bring Your Majesty back.

If the Demon Emperor died, everything would be over.

Not only that, but the nearly million-strong army currently fighting Chu Yaoyao also ordered a breakout upon seeing the fireworks.

These troops charged toward She Qiqi’s position.

Naturally, Chu Yaoyao could not let them go at this time.

Chu Yaoyao knew she had to hold them back.

She Qiqi was at a critical juncture.

The opposing Demon Emperor was already bogged down; She Qiqi might even be able to kill him outright.

If the million-strong army rushed over, they would lose the best opportunity to kill the Demon Emperor.

Therefore, Chu Yaoyao’s side naturally ordered their army to put up a desperate resistance.

For a time, Chu Yaoyao’s army, She Qiqi’s army, the Demon Emperor’s hundred thousand Dragon Blood Iron Cavalry, and the million-strong army going to protect the Demon Emperor were all embroiled in a chaotic melee.

At this point, the Demon Emperor took flight; as an expert of the Ascension Realm, he naturally would not just sit and wait for death so easily.

Even if he were to die, he wanted to die honorably on this battlefield.

And She Qiqi, also in the Ascension Realm, went to see her Imperial Father off on his final journey.

For a moment…

High above the battlefield, the permeating blood mist and the two long Dragons continuously coiled and converged, as if trying to completely devour each other.

The violent impact of the two Frost White Snakes completely scattered the spiritual energy on the battlefield, making everything seem incredibly frenzied.

Elsewhere on the battlefield, watching their clash, everyone’s morale was stirred.

They knew this would be a war to the death.

The ultimate winner of this war would lead the entire Ten Thousand Demon Country into its greatest revival.

After the revival, there would likely be a period of prosperity lasting ten thousand years.

“Rumble!”

Suddenly, a violent tremor shook the earth.

One giant after another stepped onto the battlefield.

The armored Giant Race, over ten meters tall, were like gods of slaughter on this battlefield, adding a path of blood to the already turbulent scene.
