On top of the city walls, people were leaning against the walls for a short period of rest. Although they had been fighting bitterly for a whole day and had already exhausted all their strength, all of them had tense expressions on their faces and didn't dare to relax.1

They were the kings of the night, and the pitch-black night could help them hide themselves well, increase their strength, and at the same time, could not affect their line of sight.

When night fell, it would be time for the general attack of the Death Spirit Empire. The time for rest was like before the arrival of a storm. The quieter it was, the more terrifying the attacks it would have to face.

Everyone looked as if they were about to die. At this moment, the women and children in the city were already preparing to leave one after another. There was no way they could defend this small city anymore.

As night fell, a burly man in a military uniform walked up to the highest point of the city. He was the highest military officer in this small city, he looked down at the numerous soldiers on the city walls, and after a long time, he opened his mouth and said with a voice full of vigor: "Everyone, the sky is about to darken, and at that time, the Death Spirit Empire will definitely attack with all its might. It is already surprising for our small city to be able to resist them for one day, but the following attack is simply impossible for us to resist!"

"Right now, there are many civilians and wounded in the city that are already preparing to leave. There are not only Sacred Sect soldiers here, there are also many ordinary cultivators that can help us stay here for the whole day and it is already very rare, but staying behind is already a nine out of ten chance of death. Other than the soldiers, if you want to leave, you can leave with the people in the city. Those who want to leave can leave now! "

As soon as the general finished speaking, he left the city. What was surprising was that very few people chose to leave. The final ray of light in the world disappeared and a dark night completely enveloped this entire place. Everyone was holding onto their weapons with the intent to die.

"I swear to live and die with this city!"

It was unknown where this shout came from, but more and more people began to shout along with it. The sound was getting louder and louder, shaking the entire sky.

But soon their cries were drowned out by another sound, the trumpet sound of the assault of the Dead Spirit Empire.

"Rumble!" All of the armies of the Death Spirit Empire moved out together. As they stood on the ground, the entire ground trembled. The sound of heavy footsteps struck at everyone's heart, making them feel extremely stifled.

Everyone unconsciously gripped the weapons in their hands tightly as they stared at the burning torches in the distance, waiting for them to approach. The city could no longer be guarded, their final mission was to do their best to stall for time and buy some time for those who had evacuated.

"Whoosh!" "Whiz!" "Whiz!"

At first, everyone's attention was focused on the burning torch in the distance, but they had never expected that the other party would use their arrows again in such a dangerous situation. Many of them were unable to dodge in time and were hit by the arrows, resulting in them losing their lives.
