Eternal life begins with saving my clan

Chapter 53 : I want them out of the barren land.



When Su Ming heard the command of his little brother, he widened his eyes and looked at him for a moment before relaying the command to his subordinate.

'I don't know why little brother needs water… It must have something to do with these godforsaken Desert Sand Men…' He thought, with puzzlement written all over his face.

At once, the soldiers received the command and began ordering the ordinary people to bring out water in large quantities.

Immediately, the Xianren Town people burst into action. Both old and young people fetched with a lot of zeal.

Every one of them knew how fearsome the Desert Sand Men were, and if they could help the Celestial Heavenly Sect soldiers by fetching water, why wouldn't they?

The gate creaked open, and many soldiers brought water into the battleground.

With Su Yen's previous deadly attack, it had created an opening for the soldiers to enter the battle without encountering the Desert Sand Men since most of them were just reforming their shattered bodies.

When Su Yen saw soldiers bringing buckets of water, he ordered the men to douse water on the Desert Sand Men.

"When you kill them, add enough water to their bodies immediately," he commanded with a solemn voice.

Hearing this, Su Ming and the soldiers looked at each other for a moment and sighed. Since this was the command of their sect master, they could only follow it.

Though some of them were skeptical, they all followed his command.

Quickly, the battlefield turned into a battle of water and weapons.

When a Bronze Metal Armor soldier killed a Desert Sand Man, he doused water on its body continuously until the sand turned moldy and wouldn't accept water any longer.

As the soldiers expected the Desert Sand Men to reform their bodies, they found out the sand didn't take any shape after a couple of seconds.

'Is it possible water to be their weakness?!' Su Yen exclaimed in his heart.

This type of thought appeared in the minds of everyone on the battlefield.

They looked at the moldy Desert Sand Men in front of them with jaws dropped to the ground.

"What are you doing? Continue killing them," Su Yen's voice woke them from their stupor.

Hearing his voice, the soldiers and everyone in Xianren Town were excited, knowing that they had found the weakness of the Desert Sand Men.

With renewed zeal, the people brought more water to the battlefield while the soldiers continued to pour water on the Desert Sand Men.

As for the Desert Sand Men, they tried to avoid the water but couldn't since the attack range of the Bronze Armor soldiers was not limited.

In a couple of minutes, the hundreds of thousands of Desert Sand Men had been reduced by more than half and were still decreasing at an alarming speed every second.

With Su Yen and Huang Yin on the battlefield, the Desert Sand Men didn't give them any pressure any longer.

The soldiers overwhelmed the Desert Sand Men and continued to pour water on their bodies.

Meanwhile, at the heart of the Northern Desert land, the sudden mysterious desert city blazed in the middle of the desert, surrounded by millions of Desert Sand Men.

They were like ants.

In the heart of the city, in an ancient temple, a giant sand man with a sand spear was suppressed under a powerful formation that formed seven chains around him.

Though he was surrounded by a powerful formation that drained his power, since the moment the desert city surfaced in the Northern barren desert, it was recovering his power as the desert expanded.

When his minions killed living human beings and turned their villages and towns into desert lands, his power skyrocketed.

However, everything changed with the sudden death of his minions.

Even though the beings didn't have facial expressions since everything looked like plain sand, it let out a miserable howl that resounded throughout the desert land.

All the millions of his minions on the desert cowered in fear when they heard his voice.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

From his howl, he was furious but under the suppression of the formation, he couldn't do anything.

Just then a voice came from the room.

"Who would have expected this… Even though our race has fallen and weakened, some of them are still wise after all." An ancient female came from the temple.

Hearing this, the giant sand man made a howl that shook the temple vehemently, but the temple stood firm.

"Don't waste the little strength you just gained… When that kid comes here, you can still have some strength to fight him," the ancient female's voice said in disdain.

When the giant sand man heard, his sand spear shook slightly before remaining still.

Meanwhile, the battle at the Xianren Town had almost come to an end since the Desert Sand Men began to retreat at great speed toward the northern desert.

The mortals in the town were shouting in joy when they saw the enemies retreating.

Shortly, the name of the Celestial Heavenly Sect began to resound throughout the Xianren Town.

No one knew who started it, but everyone began to chant the sect name.

If not for the sect protecting them, they would have all been killed by the Desert Sand Men.

Thus, the prestige of the Celestial Heavenly Sect rose greatly in the hearts of the people.

Previously, a lot of people were having misgivings about the sect being the overlord of the barren land.

But now, all their misgivings disappeared into thin air.

As for Su Yen, he stood at the center of the battlefield, looking at his soldiers chasing after the retreating Desert Sand Men.

Just as he was lost in thought, he heard his brother's voice.

"If you hadn't arrived on time, I don't know what would have happened," Su Ming said in relief.

He turned to look at his tired brother and asked.

"How many towns and villages did we lose to their attacks?"

Hearing this, Su Ming's expression dropped, and his face was etched with sorrow.

"Fifteen villages and five towns," he said in a low voice.

When Su Yen heard this, his expression turned unsightly, and he averted his gaze and looked into the distance.

Looking at the sudden change in his little brother's countenance, Su Ming was worried that Su Yen might blame him and quickly said,

"We got the information late, and also it took a lot of time before our men arrived here."

"I know. And you don't have to worry, brother. I'm not blaming you," Su Yen responded, not looking at him.

Su Ming breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Su Yen was not going to blame him.

Just as he was still relishing not being blamed by Su Yen, he heard his command.

"I want the Desert Sand Men out of the barren land by tomorrow."
