Chapter 877 In The Name Of The Empress
The soldiers of the Southern Eagle Empire looked up at the sky. They immediately sounded the alarm when they saw Lu Yu's Fire Spirit Dragon swooping down.
The alarm sounded, and everyone exited their tents, fully armed and ready to fight.
At that moment, a mighty figure walked out of the small city.
A burly man in heavy armor walked out, followed by a fully armed group of soldiers.
He was the general and the commander of the entire army.
He looked at the sky and scolded, "Bastard, how dare you barge into our camp alone? I think you're courting death!"
"Everyone, listen up! Use everything you have and make sure this bastard doesn't return!"
"Yes, General!"
Everyone obeyed his orders and prepared to face Lu Yu.
With the general personally coming out to take charge, the 20,000 men were much more at ease, as if they had been given a shot of confidence.
Everyone in the military camp was fully armed and ready to welcome Lu Yu.
After Lu Yu dived to a certain altitude, the dragon straightened and began to circle the military camp horizontally.
The general finally saw the true appearance of the giant dragon in the sky.
"Is... is that an ancient dragon? Impossible! How could anyone own an ancient dragon?"
"Didn't these beasts go extinct long ago?"
Although he was shaken, he still prepared for battle earnestly.
He finally understood why the other party dared to come alone; someone with a dragon was more than prepared to face an army.
At that moment, the Fire Spirit Dragon opened its massive jaws, and an intense fireball was brewing from the depths of its throat.
Boom!
A fireball shot out and instantly turned into a pillar of fire that blasted the ground!
The Fire Spirit Dragon spat out flames and spiraled in the air at the same time, like a kite connected by a thick string made of fire.
The fire blasted the ground and instantly destroyed everything. Everything that was washed away by the pillar of fire was reduced to ashes and ruins.
Boom!
As the flames blasted, countless soldiers threw away their helmets and armor. They began to flee in all directions amidst waves of terrified wails.
They had no chance to counterattack. Their enemy could quickly destroy the camp they had painstakingly built with a single breath.
They did not even have a countermeasure, to begin with.
Perhaps some mages and archers could attack the air, but their attacks were nothing but scratching an itch for the Fire Spirit Dragon.
With such a massive difference in strength, all they could do was run.
Some rushed into the forest, not caring about the punishment of desertion. The most important thing to them was to survive.
As for the general, he stood frozen in place when he saw the sea of flames.
He didn't even have the chance to negotiate before everything was washed away by a torrent of flames.
Lu Yu rode the Fire Spirit Dragon and washed the military camp with fire, surrounding it from the outside. Even if these soldiers wanted to escape, not many were able to do so.
The general looked at the sea of fire around him and was so frightened that his entire body trembled. Even though he had experienced hundreds of battles, he had never witnessed such a hellish scene.
He kneeled on the ground with a thud, looked up at the sky, and shouted, "We surrender! Please spare our lives! We won't dare invade again!"
He yelled out in despair, seeking the last bit of hope to survive.
The Fire Spirit Dragon stopped breathing flames then and swooped down with Lu Yu on its back.
Whoom!
The dragon landed on the ground with a loud bang, raising a cloud of dust.
Lu Yu sat on the dragon's back and looked at the general kneeling before him.
"Dear sir, if your assault continues, there won't be a single living person left!"
The general stood up and quickly headed to Lu Yu as he begged.
Lu Yu looked down at him and asked, "Do you know who I'm representing?"
The general was confused and could not think of an answer.
He knew the Lionheart Empire was mighty, but he had never heard of such a person in the Lionheart Empire.
"Forgive me for being stupid and not knowing what you mean."
"I represent Empress Elizabeth, the current ruler of the Lionheart Empire!"
The general had obtained first-hand information on this matter. Of course, he knew that the current ruler of the Lionheart Empire was Elizabeth.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have taken this opportunity to invade the Lionheart Empire.
"Are you one of Empress Elizabeth's men? Did you say you represent her?"
Lu Yu nodded. "That's right. I will spare your dog's life today. However, if the Southern Eagle Empire dares to have any future plans to invade the Lionheart Empire, don't blame me for finishing what I started!"
The general quickly replied respectfully, "Don't worry; we will never send troops to the Lionheart Empire again. If we dare invade again, you can kill me at will. I will not say anything!"
"The Southern Eagle Empire will no longer be enemies with the Lionheart Empire. We will only be allies!"
Lu Yu looked at his subordinates behind him and added, "Take your people and scram back. I don't want to see you again. Remember what I said; this is the only value for your survival!"
Lu Yu let them go because he wanted these people to spread Elizabeth's might. This way, he could intimidate the smaller countries surrounding them and prevent them from having any unnecessary thoughts.
Lu Yu's actions was helping Elizabeth solve some of her problems.
"Yes, yes! We'll lead our men back now. We will never invade again!"
Lu Yu rode on his Fire Spirit Dragon and soared into the sky with it.
Looking at the back of the Fire Spirit Dragon, the general sighed. "No wonder this Elizabeth woman was able to ascend the throne. To be able to obtain the help of such a cultivator, it would be strange if she did not become the Empress!"
Lu Yu piloted the Fire Spirit Dragon back toward Scorpion City.
The Fire Spirit Dragon soared through the air quickly, and Lu Yu soon returned to the square.
Sean and the others did not leave; they had been waiting for Lu Yu's return.
When they saw Lu Yu flying back, they were all shocked.
He had only been out for less than an hour and had already wiped out everyone?
After Lu Yu landed, Sean hurried up and asked, "How was your battle?"
"Half of them are wiped out. I let the rest go back."
"You have the ability to destroy them all. Why didn't you do that?" Sean asked in confusion.
"Those bastards are now scared out of their wits. I want them to go back and spread the word about their encounter. Once they are intimidated, they won't dare to commit the same acts again."
Sean immediately understood that Lu Yu was doing this to help Elizabeth, stabilizing the external threats to their empire.
