Chapter 5298: 5.1050 No Chance of Winning
Mu Jinghong roared at the Third City Lord, "What time is it now? And you still have the leisure to add to the chaos here?"
"If you don't want to work together to resist the enemy, then get out!"
The Third City Lord was so enraged by Mu Jinghong's shouting that his tiger eyes widened, and his heart burned with fury.
But with Mu Jinghong still in charge, he could only watch as his Second Brother selected about twenty disciples and quickly headed towards the entrance of Eagle City.
The Third City Lord stomped his foot in anger and frustration, then turned to his dozens of disciples and hurried after the Second City Lord.
"Second Brother, how many people have they brought?" the Third City Lord urgently asked as he followed his Second Brother.
The Second City Lord was silent for a moment, then honestly replied, "It's still unclear. Before, we saw a dense mass of people outside the city. Later, they disappeared; they must have been stored away in something."
The Third City Lord clenched his fist, "Second Brother, do you think there's still room for maneuver in this matter?"
The Second City Lord sighed deeply, "I guess it's unlikely. Third Brother, you must be prepared for the worst."
The Third City Lord was stunned by these words.
The worst psychological preparation was self-evident: death on the spot.
Had the situation truly become that dire?
"Keep up!" The Third City Lord waved his hand, leading his disciples to the entrance of Eagle City via a shortcut.
With a single glance, everyone immediately dispersed, finding hidden spots to crouch.
They would wait for the prey to arrive and then immediately rush forward to strike.
It was already nearing the end of the year, and a biting cold wind rustled, making it very chilly.
Everyone crouched nervously in their hiding places, as if waiting for a fierce beast to arrive, their hands tightly gripping cold sweat.
The Third City Lord, hidden in the shadows, gestured to a few disciples, reminding them to release their spiritual beasts to attack first as soon as the enemy approached.
Everyone nodded secretly, the ominous premonition in their hearts growing stronger.
For some reason, they felt that in tonight's battle... the City of Shadows had almost zero chance of winning.
The booming sounds of firearms from afar continued incessantly, tightening the nerves of both the Second and Third City Lords even further.
"Your Majesty, ahead is the entrance to Eagle City," Er Yi explained concisely. "There's likely an ambush at the entrance."
Er Er nodded, "The entrance is like a bottleneck, quite narrow. It's not suitable to release a large force here. It's not too late to release people once we're inside."
Duan Yue nodded, then casually took a handful of bone-piercing nails from his pocket and scattered them.
Immediately, a few broken screams echoed in the dark night.
Duan Yue quickly pointed forward, "Oh no, there really is an ambush!"
Everyone couldn't help but twitch their mouths...
Why did they always feel like His Majesty was possessed by a drama queen, making things a bit comical?
Before they could even speak, they saw their Emperor, incredibly brave, leap forward first.
No one had time to stop him; they just saw the fellow... flying into the entrance of Eagle City.
Rong Qing and Qi Ba exchanged glances, feeling like crying.
With such an unreliable Emperor, whom could they complain to?!
They had already said there might be an ambush at the entrance, but His Majesty, disregarding his own life, rushed forward first.
If he was so valiant, what was the use of them as subordinates?
Er Yi and the other five were stunned for a moment, then quickly followed.
As they ran, they summoned their personal spiritual beasts from their spiritual beast space.
At the same time, the Second and Third City Lords on the other side finally saw who was coming!
