CHAPTER 1133: CHAPTER 176: THE GAP IN POWER BETWEEN HEAVEN AND EARTH

"Bang!"

Accompanied by a loud noise, the sturdy tent was smashed, and a figure suddenly fell among the crowd.

"Who is it!"

The generals present were indeed battle-hardened elites, reacting instantly.

"Quick! Someone is attacking the camp! Protect the commander!"

"Someone! Hurry!"

"Brazen thief! How dare you break into our camp! Seeking death!"

"..."

Angry shouts echoed around, and the soldiers outside also noticed the situation here, rushing in with weapons ready.

In the scene, smoke and dust swirled, and a silhouette wrapped in a black-purple robe flickered in and out.

"You’ve hidden here, making it quite hard to find you."

Zhang Xiaoman waved his hand gently, and an invisible breeze arose, dispersing the nearby dust.

Originally, he wanted to come here and find the commander of this expedition to ask for some information.

The result was this sprawling army of hundreds of thousands, even more exaggerated than he imagined.

Not only were there seas of people as far as the eye could see, but also because of their siege of Han Yue City, they were scattered all over the place, spanning hundreds of kilometers, like finding a needle in a haystack.

Even the army’s commander abandoned the conspicuous deluxe tent and huddled in these simplest tents like an ordinary soldier, adding to the difficulty of finding them.

Even with Zhang Xiaoman’s cultivation, finding someone he had never met before in such a massive area was quite challenging.

Finally, he used the illusion technique learned from the Illusion Butterfly, hypnotized batch after batch of soldiers, and successfully found this place.

"You, you are the demon from the city!!"

At this moment, several generals around saw his attire and couldn’t help but gasp, surprised that he had found his way directly into their tent.

As for why they instantly recognized Zhang Xiaoman, it was because the Polar Star Robe he wore was too mystical, with its galaxy-like radiance exceeding common understanding.

"Is he, is he that person...?"

The surrounding soldiers heard this, causing some commotion.

Having endured enormous pressure from him these days, suddenly seeing his true self rendered them a bit confused.

"Hmph! Brazen demon, how dare you come alone to our mighty camp! Truly reckless! Soldiers, hear my command! This is the demon from the city, by order of His Majesty, kill the demon and be promoted seven ranks! Reward one thousand taels of gold! Bestow nobility!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone around turned red-eyed, as they say, great rewards incite bravery, and these soldiers could barely hold themselves back from advancing.

"Hahaha, youngster, it seems you’re worth a thousand taels of gold in the eyes of these mortals! Too bad you plan to protect them from the Outer Heaven Demon, tsk tsk..."

Inside the Divine Stone, Ni Yang’s voice sounded, full of mockery.

Zhang Xiaoman rolled his eyes.

Since Ni Yang became more familiar with him, his real character slowly revealed, clearly an Old Greedy Dragon who loves to chatter and boast.

Now Zhang Xiaoman was used to hearing his complaints every day, long accustomed to treating it as background noise.

"Oh? Demon?"

Zhang Xiaoman ignored Ni Yang and turned to look at the young general who just spoke.

It seems this group harbors quite a bit of hatred towards him.

But on second thought, it made sense.

Though he did not understand why these people wanted a massacre, he and others indeed stood as barriers against them.

And having given them quite a hard time these days, it would be unreasonable for them not to hate him.

But Zhang Xiaoman didn’t understand one thing.

He was a cultivator after all, and he had no feud with this so-called court, so it shouldn’t incite such strong resistance.

Why then was their first reaction upon seeing him not to win him over, but to insist on fighting to the death?

In terms of profit logic, it seemed illogical.

Since he couldn’t figure it out, he decided not to dwell on it for now.

After all, his purpose this time was to interrogate this group about the specific situation.

Thinking of this, Zhang Xiaoman decided not to delay further, seeing those soldiers gradually approaching, he hardened his expression and released his Transcendent aura, projecting the pressure outwards.

"Thud thud thud!!"

In an instant, soldiers from all sides turned pale and, without warning, fell to the ground, while the distant ones fared slightly better, those closer to him fared worse.

A few soldiers within five meters of him even rolled their eyes and fainted.

This was the first time Zhang Xiaoman unleashed his Transcendent aura among ordinary people, and its effect was astonishing.

A regular Star Alliance Awakener can suppress others with aura, and Zhang Xiaoman, as the Star Lord of the Star Alliance, was not only extraordinarily powerful but had also reached the "Extraordinary Level" realm.

Releasing his aura now was like creating a suffocating atmosphere for ordinary people, making it impossible to approach.

"You, what did you do!?"

Seeing their soldiers all fell without him moving a muscle, the present generals all had drastic changes in their expressions.

They could feel that terrifying pressure, but due to distance and their strength, they barely managed to stand.
