As Zhangs soldiers made their way, deeper and deeper into the city, the rumbling sound of the siege ram wheels made the hearts of the Heavenly Sword Army, beat uncontrollably. For they knew that their lives were ticking away with every passing second as their executioners came closer and closer.

Countless men from the Heavenly Sword Province were able to infiltrate and secure position within the military and government of Green Clover Province which made the take over extremely easy.

Soon a reverberating bang was heard from every corner of the city as the siege rams began assaulting the inner city gates. But the inner city gates were made completely out of iron and did not budge when the siege rams impacted them.

Suddenly, dozens of black vines crept through the streets and made their way toward the inner city walls. These black vines made their way into the stonework of the inner city walls and began expanding. Soon, wherever the vines went they would cause the walls to bulge.

If the gates won't budge that doesn't mean the walls won't. Zhang said with a smirk as he watched Ai used her whip to raze the inner city walls.

Yea, you did a great job. Zhang said as he gently patted her on the head.

A gust of wind suddenly picked up and pushed many of Zhangs men to the ground. But oddly none of the soldiers of the Heavenly Sword Army seemed affected by it.

Zhuge Dan could be seen standing atop the roof of the city lords mansion, watching all the happenings occur below, as the wind swirled about around him. Illuminated by the moonlight as wind danced around him, Zhuge Dan looked like a mystic who was about to head to battle.

Demonic Windcutter! Zhuge Dan roared as the tornado spiraled off from his palm and onto the city lords mansion where he stood. The palm-sized tornado soon grew larger in size and became as big as a person as it sucked in the clay roof tiles beneath it. After making its way to the ground, the tornado became tremendous and because eating away at the buildings near it.

A wind mage and probably one with a high level of cultivation at that Zhang murmured as he frowned.

Usually, every general of an army was a level seven or above cultivator but the majority of them were warrior types. It was quite rare to meet a high-level Mage on the battlefield because these people were usually kept as a last line of defense.

Soldiers of the Heavenly Sword Army! Reform formations! We are abandoning the city! Zhuge Dan yelled as he unleashed two more terrifying tornadoes from his palm.

The rivers of blood spilled by the two armies were currently being used by Ling to create dozens of large crescent shaped blades that cut through the air. Once the crescent blades of blood collided with the tornadoes the two techniques canceled each other out and an eerie silence filled the battlefield.

When Zhuge Dan had flicked his wrist he had sent an invisible blade of wind swirling at Zhangs men.

Of the four main elements wind was considered the deadliest due to the fact that wind did not possess a tangible form and that wind magic could be used practically anywhere.

Then there was fire that could be considered the most mysterious and also the fact that fire magic could branch into lightning magic

Ha, you wind mages sure are full of yourselves. As long as I have water I can easily crush you! Ling snickered as more waves of blood flowed towards her and formed countless blades which shot at Zhuge Dan.

Continue retreating! Zhuge Dan roared at his soldiers who were set in a daze at the magnificent battle between the two mages.

None of you will make it out of here alive! Zhang roared as he charged at the reaching soldiers with his halberd in hand. Behind him, thousands of soldiers clad in black armor followed suit.

The impact against the wind alone sent hundreds of Zhangs men flying back and caused them to collide with their comrades behind them.

With burning rage on his eyes, Zhang began condensing essence in the tips of his fingers and soon, crackling of lightning filled the ears of everyone present.

A dragon made of condensed lightning snaked through the sky as it inched closer and closer to Zhuge Dan.

The instant the lightning was about to engulf him, Zhuge Dan reached out with his hand. As if it was being absorbed, the lightning disappeared into Zhuge Dans fingertips and moments later it shot out from the fingertips of his other hand.

Ahahaha! Zhuge Dan laughed manically as smoke rose from his charred fingers and a mouth full of blood was coughed up. While the lightning shot through the sky towards Ling.

As the blade of blood headed for Zhuge Dan, another lightning dragon screeched through the sky.

You guys are on your own Zhuge Dan murmured as he busted upward higher in the air and flew away, abandoning his soldiers below.

We surrender A few of the now abandoned soldiers yelled after losing the will to fight.

Not long after pleas and screams filled the night as countless lives were extinguished. Soon, New Leaf City was filled by a sea of blood and gore.

Blockade the outer gates and post sentries on the walls. We are going to stay in this city tonight. Zhang said to his soldiers.

After the battle, a veil of silence and fear shrouded New Leaf City. The citizens feared for their lives due to the countless screamed that filled the city earlier. Families were huddled up in their homes, too afraid to even peek outside.

This coupled along with the fact that there was no looting, rape or killing happened, which helped to put the citizens of New Leaf City at ease.

The exhausting battle made Zhang and the three beauties fell into a deep sleep. Even when the sun had already rose high in the sky, they were still nowhere in sight. If anyone saw them, that person would be green with envy at the sight of Zhang sound asleep with three world class beauties by his side.

After a day of rest, Zhangs army began mobilizing and preparing to continue their march. The siege weapons were dismantled and used to completely seal three of New Leaf Citys four outer city gates. While a new gate was constructed for the city gate that was not sealed.

With the New Leaf City under our control, our rear should be secure once Lu Xun and Gan Ning arrive. Zhang said as he and the three beauties galloped atop their Inferno Wind Walkers.

Next time I'll show him who's boss! Ling yelled as fiery flames could be seen in her eyes while raising her fist up in rage.

Hey! What's so funny! Ling yelled at Zhang.

Anyone sane person watching these four would shake their heads in disbelief, because how could there possibly be people who could joke around and be so cheerful while marching to war.

Good. Everyone make haste! We are almost at the rendezvous point! Zhang yelled as his Inferno Wind Walker began to quicken its pace.

Zhangs mounted soldiers also speedup as they headed toward the encampment over the hill.

As they made their way over the hill, Zhang withdrew a green flare from his interspatial ring and shot it into the sky to announce their arrive.
