Chapter 369: Slaughter the Barbarians
Time seemed to freeze in that instant.
Everyone’s gaze turned towards Fan Tai, who soared into the sky.
The Gang Leader of the Golden Sand Gang, clad in black Profound Armor, was enveloped in Evil Qi, exuding overwhelming might. His eyes were cold and ruthless, akin to a Celestial God descending to suppress all demons and ghosts in the human world!
Under his oppressive power, the Barbarian Warriors surrounding the siege vehicle all felt their hearts shatter.
In the blink of an eye, Fan Tai’s figure rapidly plummeted towards the rear of the siege vehicle.
Before he fully landed, he suddenly kicked his right leg in mid-air.
One powerful kick struck the end of the siege hammer.
Divine Dragon Tail Swing!
The moment this Tier Six powerhouse’s toes touched the round wood, an immensely potent True Gang Power erupted!
Bam!
The extremely heavy siege hammer suddenly flew forward, and the chains tethering it exploded in unison.
Flying shards struck the surrounding barbarians, eliciting successive screams.
The siege hammer, infused with Gang Force, flew into the collapsed city gate, crushing the Three Families Alliance Army soldiers who had just charged into the inner city, causing flesh and limbs to fly!
Simultaneously, Fan Tai landed steadily on the ground.
"Die!"
Facing the surrounding enemies who showed fear, this Tier Six powerhouse glared and roared, suddenly swinging both palms.
A formidable and unmatched Qi Force swept forward like a tidal wave.
Dozens of Barbarian Warriors were instantly mashed into meat paste or blood mist by the incoming Palm Force.
Many others screamed as they flew backward, becoming twisted airborne figures, severely injured if not killed!
Among them were several Tier Four Martial Artists too.
Under the heavy blows of Fan Tai’s iron palms, their performance didn’t fare much better than that of Low Tier Martial Artists.
Yet several figures surged against the tide, attacking Fan Tai from different directions.
The Wuqi Tribe, Jingmin’s and Great River Gang’s Tier Five experts took action!
In fact, they had long been lurking around the siege vehicle, waiting for Fan Tai to appear and then to besiege and kill him.
With Fan Tai’s death, the battle would be decided!
However, despite the Three Families Alliance’s excellent plan, Fan Tai had always kept a low profile and remained hidden, even when the city walls were about to fall, this Tier Six powerhouse remained patient.
Making them hesitate and dare not move recklessly.
Now Fan Tai finally appeared.
But the alliance’s experts showed no sign of joy.
Because the Xia Ruins Fleet arrived!
Facing the enemy’s siege, Fan Tai smiled coldly, suddenly leaping high into the air, soaring toward the city walls.
He had no intent to entangle with these Tier Five experts.
Boom!
In mid-air, he clashed palms with a gray-clad man.
The latter instantly flew backward like a broken kite, spewing blood from his mouth.
Fan Tai turned, cushioned his fall on the city wall, a fleeting unnatural flush passing across his face.
This Level 6 expert reached out grabbing a battle banner planted beside the parapet.
He raised it high, shouting furiously: "Kill the barbarians!"
The shout like thunder, swept through the battlefield drenched in blood and fire, delivering to the vast fleet far away.
"Kill the barbarians!" "Kill the barbarians!" "Kill the barbarians!"
The Xia Ruins Warriors standing on the warship decks, hearing the call, shouted in unison.
Battle spirit soared to the clouds!
"Hahaha!"
On the wall, Fan Tai laughed aloud, suddenly tossing the battle banner downwards.
A tattered broken banner tore through the air, piercing a Barbarian Warrior’s chest in an instant.
The blood-stained pole then deeply plunged into the ground, marking a scarlet spot.
"Come to battle!"
Woo~
On the water, the horn of the Xia Ruins Fleet resounded again.
This heralded a full-scale attack.
Several warships of the Three Families Alliance bore the brunt, promptly swallowed by the rockets and stones from the rapidly charging Xia Ruins Battlecruisers.
Hundreds of small warships swarmed, with several Tower Ships holding the center, attacking Golden Sand Island with a mountain-crushing momentum.
The alliance fleet surrounding Golden Sand Island instantly fell into chaos!
The Southern Barbarians excelled at naval warfare, whether the Wuqi Tribe or Jingmin, they fought better on water than on land.
But their built warships were not on par with the fleet of Xia Ruins at all.
The most apparent contrast was undoubtedly the large Tower Ship.
As the mainstay of the fleet, Xia Ruins fleet’s Tower Ships outmatched the alliance’s ships in tonnage and equipped with superior weapons and more elite Sailor Warriors.
Most importantly, Xia Ruins fleet appeared extremely suddenly, completely catching the alliance fleet off guard.
Once the battle erupted between the two sides, the outcome was already declared!
In the sky, the Red-eyed Crow flitted past.
Through the view of this Intermediate Profound Spirit, onboard a ship a dozen miles away from Golden Sand Island, Zhang Yuan watched a Tower Ship belonging to Jingmin ignite into roaring flames after enduring numerous blows.
Rapidly sinking!
This dawn, he quietly left his hiding spot, arriving at the periphery of Golden Sand Island as a spectator.
Witnessing the entire process of today’s final battle.
Honestly, Zhang Yuan didn’t expect the Xia Ruins fleet to arrive at the battlefield at the most crucial moment.
Delivering a fatal blow to the Three Families Alliance.
Now it seemed the Golden Sand Gang must have sent people to seek help from Xia Ruins early.
Yet Xia Ruins really sent a fleet, which surprised him greatly.
Considering Xia Ruins was not a sole dominant force, numerous factions were deeply intertwined, both allied and contested with each other. Organizing such a large-scale fleet in a short time was truly laudable.
For instance, if the forces of Wuqi, Jingmin, and the Great River Gang had united wholeheartedly and sacrificially from the start, unleashing all forces to attack the inner city of Golden Sand.
Even if Fan Tai possessed exceptional abilities, he would undeniably fail to withstand.
Now, however, though heavily battered, the Golden Sand Gang’s inner city at the brink of downfall, the Three Families Alliance’s victory seemed within grasp but was shattered by Xia Ruins’ timely reinforcements.
In truth, Zhang Yuan didn’t realize he played a part in this.
It was Zhang Yuan who had previously destroyed three blockade warships and killed the Hawks used by those ships for communication, allowing the Xia Ruins fleet to drive straight in without being timely detected by the alliance side.
Otherwise, things would remain uncertain.
Now the battle on the water had just commenced, yet signs of the alliance fleet’s struggle were already evident.
As the first Tower Ship was destroyed, another one belonging to the Great River Gang immediately turned to flee.
Its escape led to a domino collapse!
One by one, the alliance’s warships fled in all directions, many caught up by Xia Ruins warships due to slower speed, leading the Barbarian Warriors onboard to jump into the water under relentless stone and rocket attacks.
Screams, wails, cries for help, rapids crashing...
The blood and fire of Golden Sand Island spread onto the waters!
At this moment, Zhang Yuan’s gaze followed the desperately fleeing Great River Gang Tower Ship.
A subtle feeling stirred within him.
