Even without Yuven's orders, a few generals couldn't restrain themselves. They swung open the city gates and rushed out with a fiery determination, their hearts ablaze with the need to unleash their emotions through merciless slaughter.
As Xandros watched the soldiers pour out of Imperial Beast City, he was struck by disbelief. These were the very soldiers who had suffered under Tigerus' oppression for so long. It was hard to fathom that they still harbored any trace of hostility. After all, Tigerus had dealt with the aggressive ones long ago.
Yet now, the soldiers of Imperial Beast City, once appearing meek and timid, appeared courageous and fearless.
Before Xandros could issue the order to retreat, tens of thousands of scouts met their demise.
The soldiers from Imperial Beast City brandished their weapons with wild abandon.
Unfazed by the specter of death or the sting of pain, their ferocious onslaught compelled the Norwal City troops to abandon their weapons and armor in a frantic scramble for retreat.
As Yuven observed the unfolding scene, a sense of relief washed over him.
Nevertheless, he understood that even though the sudden attack had momentarily caught Lucian off guard, the challenges ahead would be even more daunting.
Thus, Yuven issued the command for his soldiers to retreat to the city, fully aware that once Lucian regained his senses, there would be no escape for any of them, and survival was all but impossible.
Imperial Beast City gradually settled back into its former peace and tranquility, with only the lifeless bodies dotting the hills serving as a grim reminder of the recent massacre.
The gentle sunlight cast an eerie glow upon the crimson stains, casting a reddish hue across the landscape.
A few crows circled overhead, their harsh cries filling the air.
What followed the brutal blood bath was a profound sense of sorrow.
Every soldier was inundated with sorrow and despair as they gazed upon the countless lifeless bodies strewn across the ground.
“Dad, let's head back and get some rest. It's getting dark now, and Norwal City's soldiers probably won't launch another attack,” Ivasha whispered.
However, Yuven remained motionless. The fallen soldiers below were all his subjects, and his heart bled for them.
Seeing that Yuven refused to budge, Ivasha chose to remain by his side, her eyes fixed on the lifeless forms scattered beneath Imperial Beast City.
