Nine Revolutions Star Transformation-Chapter 314 - 323: Returning the Favor

Luo Ping stood atop the city wall, looking at the ninety thousand troops below, a vast black sea stretching endlessly. If a few Heaven-shattering Thunders were to fall at this moment, surely tens of thousands of soldiers would perish.

In the distance, the Sea Dragon Empire’s one million troops were also rapidly advancing towards the city. Among them, a tall carriage was most conspicuous — it must belong to Yun Feiqing. Unexpectedly, he personally came to command the battlefield today.

The soldiers of the Celestial Dragon Empire were filled with morale, having repeatedly dealt the opponent two losses, each of their hearts surged with excitement. If they could defeat the Sea Dragon Empire’s forces today, it might just end this battle.

Both sides were advancing, and they stopped when they were about five hundred meters apart. At this moment, Luo Ping directly flew into the air, ready to personally direct this battle.

After restoring thirty percent of his strength, flying was more than manageable, but he was waiting now — waiting for Chu Linfeng to finally appear.

Perhaps the heavens were favoring the Celestial Dragon Empire, as when the two armies were about to clash, a giant golden bird suddenly flew into the sky. Everyone knew of this bird; it had once caused countless casualties among the Sea Dragon Empire’s troops.

Seeing the golden giant bird, Luo Ping’s worried heart relaxed. This meant Chu Linfeng and his team were back, and they brought the powerful Heaven-shattering Thunder with them.

The golden giant bird descended directly onto the city wall, and Luo Ping quickly flew back, seeing Chu Linfeng and Meng Ji dismount from the bird’s back, along with several boxes.

However, upon seeing Meng Ji’s pale face, he knew the mission had been too dangerous. Fortunately, all was well, or he wouldn’t know how to explain to the Second Prince.

Seeing Luo Ping arrive, Chu Linfeng said: "Grand General, fortunately, we accomplished the mission. We acquired the Heaven-shattering Thunder and killed several top experts escorting them, including Wu Yuetian and Yun Feiyang, delivering a heavy blow to the Sea Dragon Empire."

Upon hearing of Wu Yuetian and Yun Feiyang’s death, Luo Ping was ecstatic, almost speechless. These two were the most troublesome figures for the Celestial Dragon Empire — one with immense strength, the other with shrewd schemes; their deaths undeniably severed Yun Feiqing’s essential aids.

"It’s tough on you all, and I apologize for the injuries the Master sustained. Your significant contributions to the Empire will certainly be reported to the Emperor. Moreover, had you not timely warned us to retreat within the city, the consequences would have been unimaginable." Luo Ping said, still with a lingering fear.

Chu Linfeng and Meng Ji glanced at the damage on the ground below the city wall, feeling a tremor at the power of the Heaven-shattering Thunder.

Then Chu Linfeng seemed to think of something, saying immediately: "Grand General, although we have hijacked the opponent’s Heaven-shattering Thunder, without a launch vehicle, it’s useless to us. We must find a way to seize the opponent’s vehicle."

"Haha! That’s what I wanted to say. Last night, the Sea Dragon Thieves planned a surprise attack on us, but they didn’t foresee we’d anticipate their scheme..."

Luo Ping told Chu Linfeng and Meng Ji the whole story from last night, leaving them astonished, imagining Yun Feiqing so upset he could vomit blood over the news.

"The luckiest part is I foresaw you would complete the mission successfully, so I dispatched people to seize that vehicle. It’s now inside the city, waiting for you to use the Heaven-shattering Thunder as a surprise for the enemy." Luo Ping said.

Looking over, Chu Linfeng and Meng Ji indeed saw a vehicle placed within the city. Immediately, Chu Linfeng said: "Let’s not delay, let’s give them a taste of their own medicine."

Luo Ping looked at Chu Linfeng, saying: "How do we plan to attack the enemy? Are we going to push the vehicle into the middle of the battlefield? Wouldn’t the enemy then prepare, greatly reducing the effectiveness of our attack?"

The Golden Demon Vulture then spoke, with a suggestion that surprised Chu Linfeng and the three others: "Boss, just put the vehicle on my back. I’ll fly directly into the air, and you can attack from above, catching the enemy off guard, striking wherever you want."

Chu Linfeng thought this was indeed a good idea, amazed that the Golden Demon Vulture thought of such a method, and laughed. "Old Jin, you sure know the way; just worry if the enemy will send experts to stop us."

Luo Ping pondered and replied: "That vehicle weighs several thousand pounds; can you handle it?"

The Golden Demon Vulture said: "I can endure such weight for one hour; I think it’ll be enough to use up the Heaven-shattering Thunder in that time!"

Hearing this, Luo Ping laughed: "Alright, that’s settled. I’ll send the two strongest generals to accompany you. This way, we won’t be afraid even if the enemy sends someone to stop us."

Chu Linfeng glanced at Meng Ji, asking: "Do you want to join? You’re the greatest hero of this mission, it wouldn’t be as meaningful without you."

"Join? Of course, with my husband by my side, I would face any perilous situation." Meng Ji said to Chu Linfeng; her injuries had mostly healed through their rest on the way back, though her Heart Spirit injury hadn’t much progressed.

The Golden Demon Vulture then descended from the city wall, and Chu Linfeng, along with several soldiers, worked together to load the vehicle onto the Golden Demon Vulture’s back, examining the long tube device for launching the Heaven-shattering Thunder.

"Chu Linfeng, I’ll send two generals at the Second Level of Divine Martial Realm to accompany you. Hopefully, we’ll give the enemy a substantial surprise this time." Luo Ping smiled.

Soon, two middle-aged generals defeated came before Chu Linfeng and Meng Ji, with Chu Linfeng saying: "Alright, Generals, let’s go. Let’s give the Sea Dragon Empire’s thieves an appetizer."

The four of them mounted the Golden Demon Vulture’s back, which promptly spread its wings and soared into the sky, its swift speed surprising the generals.

Meanwhile, the Sea Dragon Empire’s generals, having sworn an oath before Yun Feiqing, were eager to fight their opponents. As morale gradually rose, unable to hold back, Yun Feiqing commanded: "Attack with all your might! Ensure victory over the enemy, or meet me with your heads!"

The various generals then immediately issued commands to their troops, and suddenly the sound of war drums filled the battlefield as Sea Dragon Empire soldiers charged towards those of the Celestial Dragon Empire.

Luo Ping, however, didn’t give orders, knowing that a spectacular show was about to unfold.

Chu Linfeng and the others swiftly flew overhead the Sea Dragon Empire’s soldiers on the Golden Demon Vulture. To evade the threat of flying arrows, the Golden Demon Vulture maintained a flight height of three hundred meters.

Looking at the vast sea of soldiers below, Chu Linfeng smiled, saying: "Now, taste the Heaven-shattering Thunder!"

He, along with the two generals, placed a Heaven-shattering Thunder into the launch tube, and upon activating the firing mechanism, a thunderous sound erupted, followed by a red fireball streaking towards the Sea Dragon Empire’s soldiers below...
