Chapter 481 Defend to the Death

Chen Fei’s shout finally brought some clarity to these people.

Seeing this, Chen Fei spoke again, “To tell you the truth, King Zhenbei did not die by my hand, but was ambushed by Nine Demons and severely wounded, which is why I was able to kill him!”

“However, Nine Demons is too powerful for me to kill, which is why she escaped from the Demon God Mystic Realm! And upon learning of King Zhenbei’s death, Nine Demons will surely lead the Yao Race in a full-scale invasion!” Chen Fei’s gaze slowly swept across everyone’s faces, finally resting on Ma Shuo.

“Since you wish to atone, then go fight the Yao Race with all your might! It’s far better than dying here for nothing!” Chen Fei said coldly.

It was true that King Zhenbei was these people’s belief, but similarly, they also believed in Zhenbei City!

“Everyone should understand what a Yao Race army means! I will only give you one promise: as long as the city stands, I will not leave!” Chen Fei’s tone was filled with determination, instantly igniting their fighting spirit.

The moment they learned of King Zhenbei’s death, they were shocked.

When they learned of King Zhenbei’s clandestine machinations, their hearts died.

But upon learning that the Yao Race army was approaching, their eyes filled with Battle Intent!

Chen Fei keenly sensed this and slowly raised his hand.

At this moment, Chen Fei was undoubtedly the focus of everyone’s attention. Seeing him raise his hand, everyone subconsciously looked towards his palm.

Just as his palm reached its highest point, Chen Fei suddenly clenched his fist!

“Everything, for Zhenbei City!” Chen Fei shouted.

“Everything, for Zhenbei City!”

“For Zhenbei City!”

Everyone subconsciously followed suit, and then their voices gradually converged, growing louder and louder. The soldiers who had originally thrown away their weapons silently picked them up and joined the shouts.

In the distance, Ji Cheng and Ji Lin’s eyes almost popped out when they saw this scene!

“Prodigy! Simply too much of a Prodigy! He can even rouse so many people!” Ji Lin looked shocked, with a hint of satisfaction in his expression.

Ji Cheng was also shaken, looking at Chen Fei among the Zhenbei Army with a complex expression: “This person is intelligent, and his strength is not weak among his peers! And he has such terrifying incitement ability, truly extraordinary, extraordinary!”

The two of them were there, ready to make a strong move when Chen Fei was surrounded and about to be beaten to death.

Who would have thought Chen Fei would give them such a big surprise!

Not only was he not attacked by these resentful soldiers, but he even united them with a few words! They had originally heard that Chen Fei was going to defend the city and were not optimistic, after all, facing a tide-like Yao Race army, even with Earthly Realm strength, Chen Fei would be like an ant trying to shake a tree!

But now, things were different.

With the Zhenbei Army united, they could completely block the Yao Race’s attacks using Zhenbei City! Coupled with Golden Exchange Tower’s powerful logistical support, it was truly possible for him to defend Zhenbei City!

Seeing that the situation had completely stabilized, Chen Fei wasted no more words. He turned and looked at his old acquaintance: “Xu Zhenping!”

Xu Zhenping didn’t expect Chen Fei to spot him so quickly, and his expression towards Chen Fei was somewhat complex, but he quickly reacted and subconsciously took a step forward: “This humble General is here!”

“From now on, send out all reconnaissance personnel. You must ascertain the Yao Race’s movements at the first possible moment!” Chen Fei said in a deep voice.

“This humble General obeys the order!” Xu Zhenping said loudly.

No one objected; Fang Wei and the others merely looked at Chen Fei with complex expressions.

“Zhang Chang, Yan Fei! You two are responsible for maintaining public order in Zhenbei City! Investigate all Demon Cultivators! Apprehend all Dark Guards!” Chen Fei decisively ordered.

Zhang Chang and Yan Fei exchanged glances, hesitated for a moment, then stood up and said, “We obey the order!”

After they left, Chen Fei looked at Ma Shuo and Fang Wei: “Gentlemen, you are experts in leading troops and fighting battles. As for the remaining arrangements, you can handle them as you see fit! As for other matters, we’ll discuss them after we’ve eliminated the Northern Border Yao Race!”

Ma Shuo lowered his head and glanced at King Zhenbei. For some reason, looking at the stern-faced Chen Fei at this moment gave him a sense of familiarity.

Soon, Fang Wei and Ma Shuo settled the Zhenbei Army and came to the camp with the other Generals.

Chen Fei sat upright in the camp, without any humility; this was not the time for humility.

“I have already contacted Golden Exchange Tower, and there will be ample strategic supplies, with both Medicinal Pills and Spirit Stones prepared properly!” Chen Fei said concisely, “And I have already sent out a distress signal, but unfortunately, Tianqing Holy Land is quite far from here, so it will take some time for them to arrive.”

“In addition, there will be people assisting in secret, so you don’t need to worry about the destruction caused by high-level Demon Cultivators; I will lead people to kill as many high-level Demon Cultivators as possible!” Chen Fei knew that he was not good at deploying troops or Formations.

Cultivators are human after all and will tire after prolonged combat, so the weaker Yao Beasts need to be dealt with by the Zhenbei Army.

This was precisely the Zhenbei Army’s forte.

Seeing Chen Fei’s arrangements, Ma Shuo remained silent for a moment before speaking, “Zhenbei City has a Human Realm Formation, but activating it requires a large amount of resources and cannot be sustained for long.”

“You can decide when to activate it!” Chen Fei glanced at him, “I only have one request: hold the city until death!”

“You can rest assured on that point! Even without King Zhenbei, my Zhenbei Army still has the duty to protect Zhenbei City! That will never change!” Fang Wei said in a deep voice upon hearing this.

With Chen Fei’s promise, everyone spoke up, and the atmosphere gradually shifted from solemnity. Chen Fei also took this opportunity to learn from these people how to utilize military Formations, something Chen Fei had never encountered before and found quite interesting.

In Chen Fei’s original room, Ji Wugou had moved back in.

At this moment, she rested her chin on her hand, listening to Ji Cheng and Ji Lin describe the scene in the Zhenbei Army camp.

The more she listened, the brighter her eyes became. Hearing that Chen Fei had appeased the Zhenbei Army with just a few words, a smile appeared on her lips, and she couldn’t help but say, “This fellow really has some tricks up his sleeve! I knew he’d be fine!”

Ji Cheng and Ji Lin exchanged glances. Seeing Ji Wugou’s expression, it clearly made them even more worried.

After a moment of hesitation, Ji Cheng spoke, “Young Miss, news has arrived from the family. Young Master is coming soon!”

“Wuxin?” Ji Wugou raised an eyebrow and snorted coldly, asking.

“It is Young Master Wuxin!” Ji Cheng quickly nodded.

“That brat is probably overjoyed inside!” Ji Wugou pouted, “Alright, I know what you want to say. The Northern Wilderness Demon Clan wants to kill me. If we can’t eliminate them, what face will my Ji family have!”

Ji Cheng and Ji Lin couldn’t help but exchange glances.

Although the Ji family sometimes acted domineeringly, they wouldn’t casually speak of exterminating a clan.

For Ji Wugou to say this now was simply burying her head in the sand. Couldn’t they see that Ji Wugou was preparing to help Chen Fei overcome this difficulty?

However, even if they knew, they dared not defy Ji Wugou’s wishes. Exchanging glances, they could only sigh softly. For now, they would wait until Young Master Wuxin and the others arrived! In any case, they currently had no courage to persuade Ji Wugou.
