“What, how dare the Dayu Empire!”
Wu Tian felt his whole body was about to ignite.
While Ye Jinqiu and Ye Qing were present, the Dayu Empire didn’t make a move.
The moment these two took over, the Dayu Empire began to counterattack, utterly disregarding them.
Witch Yang from the side was also filled with rage, feeling belittled.
“Since the Dayu Empire dares to come, let’s keep them all here.”
They never really held the Dayu Empire in high regard, and now that the Empire really dares to fight, Wu Tian and Witch Yang believe it’s time they joined in.
Should they capture the Five regions, they could improve their standing among the Witch tribe’s upper ranks.
It’s just an Empire, how many Golden Immortal Realm mighty ones could it have.
This time, they deployed an entire six mighty ones from the Golden Immortal Realm.
Besides, there were also two mighty ones from the Profound Immortal Realm.
The Witch tribe excels at war, and cultivators of the Human Clan at the same cultivation level are not a match for them.
The entire Witch Tribe army also successively started to act.
One by one, the witches soared into the sky, peering at the cultivators of the Dayu Empire not far away, hoping to distinguish themselves in battle.
“Attack!”
Seeing the cultivators of the human clan have already entered within a hundred miles of range, the Witch tribe’s cultivators chants of war radiated light from the black patterns on their bodies, transforming them into giants, surging towards the Dayu Empire.
At the bow of a Flying Boat, Ye Xiaoxiao, observing the Witch Tribe’s cultivators launching an attack, swung her arm, and energy cannons at the flying boat’s bow began forming energy.
These flying boats are top-grade Immortal Artifacts produced by the Refining Artifacts Sect of the Ye family, not any less valuable than the ordinary supreme Immortal Artifacts.
Each flying boat, not only could it be used to transport troops, it also served as a formidable war machine.
“Release!”
As the chief commander of this battle, Xi Tian, a Heavenly Immortal, waving a giant battle flag, signaled the start of the attack.
Hundreds of cannons attacked simultaneously.
Upon the sight of the incoming beams of energy, the witch cultivators of the Heavenly Immortal Realm immediately brandished witch tools to defend themselves.
The Witch tribe, after all, was not very familiar with the human clan’s war machines.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t look down upon them as such.
When the beam of energy struck the witch tools of the witch immortals, in almost an instant, these witch tools, which were equal to superior Immortal Artifacts, were pierced right through.
Innumerable energies, fell into the Witch Clan’s cultivators and then exploded.
Unprepared, the Witch Clan’s cultivators suffered heavy losses.
The golden immortals of the Witch tribe who were in command at the rear, watching as in an instant a fifth of the Witch tribe’s cultivators were lost, were dumbstruck.
This loss was unbearable for them.
“Dayu Empire, how can you be so strong?”
In their eyes, the Dayu Empire should be on par with the other forces from the Lower Five States.
Facing the Witch Tribe’s army, they should have been defeated in an instant.
Now, however, the combat power displayed by the Dayu Empire far exceeded their expectations.
Without a single hand raised, simply relying on the Flying Boat’s round of attack, they have already become unbearable for them.
“Dayu Empire, you’re courting death!”
The Golden Immortals of the Witch tribe were furious.
“Go and kill these human cultivators for me.”
An enraged Wu Tian issued orders to the two Profound Immortal Realm cultivators at his side.
A hint of disdain flitted across the eyes of the two Profound Immortal Realm cultivators.
For the two witch children, Wu Tian and co., they bore no liking at all.
By contrast, when Ye Jinqiu and Ye Jinlong were fighting, they were the first to charge forward, unlike these two witch children, who could only flip their lips and swing their tongues around here.
Now that these two are the commanders, however reluctant the two Profound Immortal witches were, they could only charge towards where Ye Xiaoxiao was.
The other Golden Immortal Realm witches also rose into the air to join the battlefield.
War, instantly broke out.
The Golden Immortal witches naturally would not be left to deal with ordinary soldiers.
Ye Xiaoxiao’s backup regiment started to act as well.
They barely noticed these Golden Immortal witches.
Seeing that Ye family’s cultivators charging towards them, a savage smile spread out on the faces of the Golden Immortal witches.
Golden Immortals of the human race, for the Witch tribe, are a very high-level cultivation resource.
The relatively small Dayu Empire’s Golden Immortals, how powerful could they be?
When the Golden Immortals of both sides met in the air, their powerful strength caused the battlefield to be instantly affected.
The cultivators of the Dayu Empire, relying on the Flying Boats, were fine and not much affected.
But the witches were not as comfortable; the aftermath of the battle made things unbearable for them.
At this point, the witch cultivators also realized they underestimated the Ye family’s cultivators.
Not only do these Ye family cultivators possess excellent talent, most importantly, they are rich.
Even though they were already at the Golden Immortal Realm, some of them were merely using superior witch tools. Supreme witch tools were very precious to them.
What about these Ye Family cultivators before them? Each of them was using Taoist artifacts.
In their tribe, it was exceptional for a Mysterious Witch to be able to use a Taoist artifact.
The battle soon yielded results.
Soon, the first Golden Witch fell.
The fallen Golden Witch unwillingly closed his eyes. He did not lose due to lack of talent but rather at the hand of poverty.
He was bewildered that despite his efforts to become a Golden Witch, the gap between the rich and the poor was still so significant!
The two Mysterious Witches they had hoped for had already been blocked by Ye Jinlong and Ye Jinfeng.
Ye Jinfeng’s body glistening with the ancient phoenix fire couldn’t beat a Mysterious Witch in a short time, yet it was also not something a Mysterious Witch could defeat.
The situation on Ye Jinlong’s side was somewhat the same. At the late Golden Immortal Realm, he firmly held back his opponent, the Mysterious Witch.
With their top-line fight stalled, the Dayu Empire was mowing down the rest of the witches’ ranks.
Ten armies summoned ten army souls, steamrolling their way through the witch’s army, leaving countless corpses behind.
The overwhelming combat power made it impossible for the Witch Clan’s army to respond.
Neither the top nor bottom was the match of the Witch Clan, leaving the two witch children chilled to the bone.
Why, when Ye Jinqiu and Ye Qing were around, everything was fine?
Why did it turn out like this when they just took over?
The mere thought of the consequences of their defeat in this battle made their heads spin.
Although they wouldn’t be directly imprisoned, if they really did lose, their status in the Witch Tribe would definitely plummet sharply.
If it wasn’t for the cautionary example of Ye Jinqiu and Ye Qing, it would be okay.
However, comparisons always end up poorly.
Now, their only way out is to ask the Dao Protectors to make their move.
With the might of a Dao Protector, which is equivalent to the rank of Sovereign Sorcerers, they have enough power to sweep the Dayu Empire.
Although the duty of the Dao Protector is to protect, they can’t make a move when their lives are not in danger.
But now, they were short on options.
As long as the Dayu Empire is eliminated, who would know it was due to the Dao Protectors’ intervention?
If they handle affairs with discretion, their status will not waver in the slightest.
“Old Yan, hurry up and act!”
In secret, Witch Yang continually urged their Dao Protector to make his move.
