Chapter 975 - 256: Fang Ze: I’ll Take Care of You!
They lay in ambush like statues, not moving a muscle, patiently waiting for the command.
No one knew how much time had passed; it could have been seconds, or perhaps minutes.
Just as a dark cloud gently obscured the bright moonlight, in that instant, "Boom!" "Boom!" two thunderous rumbles echoed above Qinyang City and Central City!
Along with the booming sound, a flaming mass the size of a small mountain exploded in the sky over Qinyang City! It directly shattered all the defensive arrays!
As for Central City, the approach was even simpler and more direct: the Peacock God King, who arrived in his true body, casually slapped a hand, imprinting a translucent palm print on the numerous layers of defensive and scouting arrays, which then began to crack!
The attack commenced suddenly and ended just as abruptly, not giving the garrison within the cities enough time to react, and the defenses of both cities were breached!
At the same time, the vanguard lurking around the cities saw this and, as if receiving a signal, no longer remained hidden. They leapt up, jumping onto the walls of the two cities!
In this world of martial arts and extraordinary power, city walls thirty feet high served merely to provide psychological security to the populace and act as cores for arrays—such structures offer little real defense in a transcendent war. So it didn’t take long before the vanguards, each five thousand strong, ascended the walls, initiating the siege!
The garrison of Qinyang City and Central City had clearly not made much advance preparation, and their forces on the walls were insufficient, so within a few minutes, the vanguard had basically seized control of the situation.
Even though reinforcements occasionally arrived from within the cities, they still easily opened the city gates!
