The Fairy Clan's flying vessel was intentionally showy and slow, effectively becoming their mobile target.
Dozens of crystal cannons fired together in the first round, causing a thunderous blast.
The flying vessel, although slightly speedy, holds no defensive power. These Crystal Cannons can destroy even battle cruisers, let alone a defenseless airship.
Under the bombardnt of so many cannons, the flying vessel was blasted into oblivion within seconds.
"How dare you!"
Luo Yi shouted in rage, however, he was unable to counterattack from the inside.
Many of Clan disciples did not even have the chance to retaliate before they were hard. Fortunately, the flying vessel offered so protection, hence no imdiate fatalities were recorded.
As it crumbled, everyone tumbled ungracefully from within.
"Darn it, have you all lost your minds!" Luo Yi cursed vehently.
"Attack!"
He promptly ordered his n to target the guards on the city wall.
"Fire!"
The commander seized the lead and gave the order.
From atop the city wall, Crystal Cannons, chanized Crossbows, and Archery Squads imdiately launched an attack, and the city walls' defense formation was quickly activated.
Arrows covered the sky, advancing towards the Fairy Clan, intermixed with nurous glowing fragnts of crystal shards.
Seeing this situation, even Luo Yi was startled.
"Quickly use the token for defense!"
Luo Yi imdiately inford the other martial practitioners. He himself, at full strength, was rapidly striking with his palms, covering and pushing the rest to retreat.
The ninth-realm experts had no attacking ability in their tokens.
The attacks other disciples stored in theirs were also input by these ninth-realm elders. Therefore, they wouldn't store their own attacks in the tokens.
So during battles, the elders must rely entirely on their real strength.
The Clan disciples all released the attacks within their tokens to block this round of arrow rain and bombardnt, retreating far away.
"Stop!"
The commander also ceased his attack.
"Damn it!"
Luo Yi was livid, he never expected to make such a fool of himself when he took his first action. He couldn't bear such humiliation and promptly launched an attack against the defense formation, striking it from a distance with a palm.
But when his palm hit, the expected hearty sound did not erge. The formation was rely emitting ripples in an unceasing rhythm, as if it was absorbing his power.
Luo Yi was also puzzled, looking at the changes of the formation.
Suddenly, within those ripples, a point of light appeared.
Luo Yi imdiately scread, "No good! This formation has a rebound function! Everyone…."
Before he could finish speaking, a "Whoosh" was heard. The power he had used to attack it was all rebounded back at him, hurtling towards the Clan.
Most of the disciples have no ti to react. So wounded disciples were still healing themselves.
Even those who had reacted could only run away. They were no match for the attack of a late-ninth-realm expert.
Luo Yi, helpless, had to slam out another palm to block the returning attack.
Ye Liuyun had Wu Kun set up this formation with a heavy price, using up a huge amount of ti and resources. It operated with high energy consumption, hence its great power.
The goal was to deter opponents from simply attacking; they would only play defense.
Luo Yi was now gaping, having no way to deal with the formation other than cursing angrily. He could only wait for the wounded n to recover first.
Although he was not an formation master, he knew that such kind was impregnable even if he exhausted all his energy.
As soon as the commander saw them retreat, he imdiately shut down the formation.
Luo Yi wanted to sneak an attack, but each ti he tried to rush in, he was blocked by a shower of arrows and a fusillade from the crystals from the cannon. Every ti they approach the city wall, the defense formation would trigger.
After several rounds, not only did Luo Yi fail injure a single city guard, but many of his n also exhausted the attacking power in their tokens while defending.
If they continued to fight, they might suffer casualties. He had no choice but to give up and lead his people to retreat.
At the sa ti, every operation of the Celestial Cloud Emporium within the Fairy Clan's territoriy suddenly halt, left the place desolated.
The army of fifteen thousand from Ludarbay suddenly marched towards Klanning. With the assistance from the Scarlet Cardinal House, the army faced no resistance and entered the city directly.
Once the army entered, all the Fairy Clan martial practitioners driven out of the city.
The Eastcloud Dynasty took the opportunity to issue an announcent throughout the territory that the Fairy Clan had attacked the regalty. They were ready for war and the battle could break out anyti, commanding the peasants to stay away from the war zones.
Helian Xiu also led an army of a hundred thousand and stationed in Ludarbay, serving as the second wave of forces to attack the Fairy Clan.
The experts from the Dragon Clan, Beast Mountain, and the Scarlet Cardinal House all rushed to defend at Klanning.
They wouldn't miss this opportunity to take over the city.
Now that it was completely out of the Fairy Clan's control, it was surrounded by the experts of major powers and Ye Liuyun's army of 150,000. The Fairy Clan could never reclaim it again.
The herb bases of the Shui Family that fell within Ye Liuyun's control, were all taken over by the Eastcloud Dynasty. Everyone there were driven back to the Fairy Clan.
In fact, he had all managent of these bases handed over to Shui Bingyue.
Under the intelligence basis of Xia Tianqiong and Xia Lingshuang, the representatives of the Fairy Clan in all the cities were also cleared one by one.
Almost overnight, the Clan was cut off from all external contacts and supply channels.
In the East, rumours spread that the Fairy Clan was selfish and caused internal strife while refusing to fight foreign races. They only aid to disrupt the stable environnt of the region and target their own people.
Adding to the arrogant attitude of the disciples of the Fairy Clan, who already had a poor reputation among martial pracitioners, the public opinion was mainly against the Fairy Clan and in favour of the Eastcloud Dynasty.
The tough response from the Dynasty left the Fairy Clan stunned. The elders imdiately began to discuss counterasures.
"They're attacking on all fronts! All of these are clearly preditated!"
"Did our information leak to the Eastcloud Dynasty in advance, that's why they could be so well-prepared?"
"It's only been more than twenty days since we sent our people! These things can't be arranged in such a short ti!"
The elders were no fools. With a bit of analysis, they discovered that Ye Liuyun had been preparing for this day all along.
"What should we do then? Do we fight back?" one elder asked.
"Fight? How can we fight? The experts from the major powers are stationed in Klanning and blocking our exit. To fight now would an declaring war on all the forces in the East!"
"Yes! And although Ye Liuyun's army might individually lack strength, they certainly make up for it in numbers. We would suffer massive casualties even if we won!"
"But we're the Fairy Clan, we cannot let ourselves be bullied by a youngster, right? We must make him understand our might!"
The elders were divided in their opinions. So advocated upholding the status of the Clan and taking action against Ye Liuyun, while others suggested temporary forbearance, waiting for another opportunity.
In the end, they made their decision. The Fairy Clan as a whole would not engage in war, but Luo Yi would lead the martial practitioners on a stealth attack against the Eastcloud Dynasty, aiming directly to capture Ye Liuyun.
