Sun Lingtong didn’t charge directly through the South City Gate but led his team into the winding path.
This was the route of the giant ghost, allowing direct teleportation into the Immortal City.
Sun Lingtong cut in line, leading his men, and managed to enter White Paper Immortal City before a giant death bone spirit.
"That guy!"
"They are disrupting military discipline!"
"Whose subordinates are they?"
The discipline of the ghost army was impeccable, and Sun Lingtong’s actions brought a lot of negative impact on the order.
Reports were immediately filed, and some wanted to hold Sun Lingtong accountable, these reports were presented to Luo Si.
Xie Sichao glanced at Luo Si as if unintentionally.
Luo Si’s face remained expressionless; he didn’t stop Sun Lingtong but ordered: The ghost giant pauses entering, the headless ghost cavalry enter the city at full speed!
At the same time, he ordered his men to continue fiercely attacking the South City Gate. The ghost giants would not take the winding path but continue to attack the southern city wall.
Tie Guzheng charged left and right, intercepted effortlessly by four Golden Core Ghost Generals taking turns.
Even, Tie Guzheng was forced to retreat backward by the counterattacks of the Ghost Generals.
As a result, he was even farther from Sang Le Youling.
"Commander, the city wall is in crisis!" The commander’s seal vibrated slightly, transmitting a plea for help from his subordinates.
Tie Guzheng nearly ground his steel teeth into pieces.
"Damn it!"
He found it difficult to break through the protection of the four Ghost Generals and was caught off guard by Luo Si’s frontal pressure.
He knew he had to eliminate Sang Le Youling, or the situation would completely collapse. But he lacked the combat power and didn’t have time.
He had to rush back to hold the fort, or if the southern city wall collapsed, the ghost army would attack in full force, and the strategic value of Sang Le Youling’s teleportation would be lost—there was no need to teleport, with such a vast attack space, enough for a large number of ghost soldiers to advance simultaneously!
"Tie Guzheng, go guard the southern wall!" At the crucial moment, a White Paper silhouette flew overhead.
Tie Guzheng’s face showed excitement: "City Lord!"
The newcomer was not the actual City Lord, but her Paperman Avatar.
The situation at the South City Gate was extremely dangerous, even the Paperman Avatar had no choice but to come and suppress it.
As soon as she moved, it caused a strong reaction.
"Look, the City Lord’s avatar is in action!"
"Luo Si, let me fight!"
"Let me go to battle! Kill this woman, and White Paper Immortal City’s morale will plummet, and it might even draw out her true form."
The atmosphere in Luo Si’s camp was intense.
But Luo Si remained calm; no requests for battle were allowed, and more headless ghost cavalry were continually dispatched.
This left many commanders feeling indignation.
The headless ghost cavalry traversed the winding path, stepping into White Paper Immortal City!
They moved in groups, like a school of sharks attacking, launching assaults in all directions, wreaking havoc freely.
The City Lord’s Paperman Avatar let out a furious snort; the voluminous white skirt spun without wind, the dark runes densely covering the skirt lit up in sequence, casting visible frost white ripples.
In the next moment, cold aura transformed into a massive tide of ice sweeping in all directions, instantly covering the ground with pale ice crystals.
Over a hundred ghost cavalry were directly frozen within the ice crystals, immediately sealed away.
The Paperman Avatar’s long hair fluttered, with thousands of frosty glimmers emanating from the tips.
Ch-ch-ch-ch...
The dense light sound was like raindrops hitting banana leaves, merging into a hum of extinction.
The glimmers shot out at once, piercing through the headless ghost cavalry and their skeleton warhorses, all collapsing to the ground.
In an instant, a section of the battlefield was cleared.
Seeing this scene, the commanders around Luo Si changed color; the excitement, bloodthirstiness from earlier battle requests, and dissatisfaction from being refused all quickly faded.
Some of them sneakily glanced at Luo Si, who remained seated without moving, his expression cold.
The City Lord’s Paperman Avatar felt a wave of discouragement.
Though her battle results were fierce, the headless ghost cavalry were unending like a tide; no matter how many were killed, more replaced them.
"Must first dispel the path, eliminate Little Le!" The Paperman Avatar fixed her gaze on Sang Le Youling.
She stood there with a numb expression, holding the Path of Silence candle, motionless.
The four Golden Core Ghost Generals around her were on high alert.
Clearly, the battle power of the City Lord’s Avatar far exceeded that of Tie Guzheng; they must handle with care.
"We’re here!"
"Kill them all for me!"
"Little Ma, I’m here, I’m here!!"
The calls of Qing Chi came through at this time.
Right behind her, charging into battle, was the newly established Qing Jiao Army.
Initially, when danger arose at the South Gate, Qing Chi received Tieguzheng’s orders.
The latter commanded Qing Chi to immediately lead the Qing Jiao Army to join the battle!
Qing Chi, long impatient, promptly ordered the whole army to beat the drums, summon the warhorses, swiftly mount, and charge out like tigers once gathered.
Midway, she saw the Paperman Giant Statue displaying its power and exclaimed in her heart, "Little Ma, it must be Little Ma controlling the statue!"
Both publicly and privately, this fueled Qing Chi’s blazing battle spirit.
She led the charge, racing at the forefront, surrounded by green flames, exuding unparalleled might.
Following close behind her was her father, Qing Yan at Golden Core Level. At this moment, Qing Yan was raising a battle flag.
This was a white bone battle flag, with a green flame burning at the top of the flagstaff. The flag was so thin it seemed transparent, like dead skin, with the words Qing Jiao imprinted on it.
This was exactly the Military Bone Blade Battle Flag.
Additionally, the entire Qing Jiao Army was mounted on horses, which were extraordinary themselves, as they were Black Blood Paperman Horses.
The warhorses were towering and skeletal. Inside their chests, a human-head-sized ghost fire in a miserable green hue burned fiercely. Their eyes were pitch black, void, and lifeless.
The Qing Jiao Army was armored; some wielded Crescent Moon Great Sabers, while others held Sky-splitting Spears.
Boom, boom, boom...
The two cavalry forces collided on the square behind the South Gate.
Qing Chi, acting as the spearhead, was terrifyingly powerful, breaking down the enemy cavalry’s formation. Consequently, the subsequent Qing Jiao soldiers were as bright and unstoppable as a rainbow, unafraid of death, directly breaking the Headless Ghost Riders!
The Qing Jiao Army was richly equipped with military armaments, but what truly set them apart was the immense charge bonus as they stormed in.
In contrast, the Headless Ghost Riders had just been transported from the Path and hadn’t much time to accumulate enough distance to charge effectively.
As the two armies clashed, the Headless Ghost Riders were thrown into disarray, both humans and horses alike.
"Good!" The Paperman Avatar felt deeply gratified at this sight.
Just this round of engagement made her feel it was worthwhile, thanks to the cultivation of the Qing Jiao Army.
She then focused intently, targeting Sang Le Youling!
The Yin Poison Ghost General repeated his old trick, spewing out a dark green miasma wall.
The Paperman Avatar rippled with frost-white waves, freezing the miasma into countless pieces of dark green ice crystals, which clattered to the ground.
Layers of frost spread over the Yin Poison Ghost General as well.
Terrified, he backed away swiftly.
The Ghost General lurking in the shadows threw the Soul Binding Rope, aiming at the Paperman Avatar’s ground shadow.
However, with a sizzling sound, the rope exploded into thick black smoke.
The Ghost General let out a sharp scream, his figure warping as he fled awkwardly.
The Mourning Ghost shook a bone flute viciously, sending out a piercing sound attack.
The Paperman Avatar’s face remained impassive as the sound attack vanished like mud in the ocean, having no effect.
The Rock Ghost General barred the way. He was burly, crossing both arms fiercely to strike the Paperman Avatar.
The Paperman Avatar’s advancing momentum was finally halted at this point.
But quickly, as she continued her assault, the Rock Ghost General stumbled back, calling out repeatedly, "Help me, help me!"
The Paperman Avatar fought with great strength, leaving the four Golden Core Ghost Generals in a dismal state.
"The situation isn’t right!"
"We must provide reinforcements!!"
"Luo Si, why are you hesitating?"
In Luo Si’s camp, the commanders could no longer remain seated and again eagerly requested to join the battle.
The Vanguard General was the most determined among them, expressing himself vehemently.
Luo Si looked at him deeply, then scanned the surroundings. He waved his hand, "If you want to go, all of you go ahead. I won’t stop you."
"Wise of you!" The Vanguard General, having a background, never respected Luo Si, knowing the latter was placed in command to take blame.
Inside the Paperman Giant Statue.
Buddhist Doctor Meng Yaoyin, after surveying the surroundings, fixed her gaze on Ning Zhuo, "Little Zhuo, you actually came here."
"You’ve reached Foundation Establishment Stage and came to White Paper Immortal City?"
"Mother! You’ve finally woken up." Ning Zhuo’s eyes reddened with excitement, "I found this place by chance, and I even figured out your arrangements. This time, I will do my best to thwart the Lord of Wanchuan’s schemes and conspiracies!"
"Good child, you’ve grown up." Buddhist Doctor Meng Yaoyin extended her hand, gently stroking Ning Zhuo’s head.
"Hahaha, here is the command center!" The Long-handled Axe Ghost General broke into the Array Space, storming in.
The Crimson Ghost General followed closely behind.
The Long-handled Axe Ghost General discovered Ning Zhuo, instantly overjoyed, "The one controlling the statue is just a mere little cultivator at Foundation Establishment. Die for me!"
"Hmm?" The long-handled sickle held by Buddhist Doctor Meng Yaoyin moved slightly.
The Long-handled Axe Ghost General’s head rolled to the ground.
Killed in action!
