Ignoring him, Bayou swiftly turned and soared toward the unconscious sun sha below.

Chapter 248.

Stranded in a foreign land, Bayu crouched beside Sun Shia Sha, first checking her faint breath.

There were no visible wounds on her body.

Although Bayou was not well-versed in soul magic, her encounters with the undead had endowed her with a certain understanding of souls.

She surmised that Sun Shia Sha<unk>s soul must have sustained damage.

I have arrived too late.

Cradling Sun Sha Sha in her arms, By You sensed the warmth emanating from her embrace, and Sun Sha<unk>s fingers twitched slightly.

Yet she remained unconscious.

It was evident that she had been harmed by the angel's holy light, an attack akin to by used dark magic that directly inflicted harm upon the soul.

Indeed, to use the angel's terminology, it would be more appropriate to describe it as purifying the soul.

Bayou found her escape routes severed, surrounded by desolate ruins.

Trapped within this arid desert, the angel had deliberately destroyed the castle as crystal to prevent Bayou from fleeing.

Yet ultimately, she had proven to be no match for Bayou.

Despite her unfamiliarity with the surroundings, Bayou remained composed.

As long as she could escape the desert and locate a lord, returning to the city of the undead would be straightforward.

Amidst the wreckage, Bayou spotted several allies of Sun Yuba, among whom was a middle-aged man bearing a resemblance to Sun Sha Sha, now lying in a pool of blood.

The surrounding castles lay in ruins and the likelihood of survival for these individuals was non-existent.

With a sigh, Bayu lamented the demise of Sun Sha Sha Eskin.

While her own situation grew increasingly perilous, she dug a large pit in the ground, disposing of the bodies within, then ignited a fire to incinerate them completely, ultimately burying their ashes beneath the sands.

May you journey well.

Subsequently, Bayou approached the sealed angel whose golden pupils glared fiercely at her.

Raising her right hand, she thrust a black spear through the seal, piercing the angel within.

After neutralizing the angel, Bayou swiftly collected the scattered supplies and summoned the angel and the holy knights as Reaper's guards.

She then meticulously cleared the scene and ordered the Reaper guards to depart to another location to await further commands.

The rationale behind summoning the reaper's guards lay in the fact that ordinary undead were too conspicuous in following by you.

Whereas the reaper's guards could conceal themselves and teleport to her side at any moment.

Everything at the scene was buried beneath the yellow sands.

No one would ever learn of the events that transpired here.

Bayou hoisted son Sha Sha onto her back, dawned the black robe from her ring, and glanced up at the crimson moon to orient herself before soaring eastward.

Meanwhile, the siblings within the city of the undead awaited Bayu's return for several hours, growing increasingly anxious.

What if something has gone arry? Chunv voiced her concerns.

Surely, even if they were to engage in battle, it should be nearing its conclusion by now, I shall inquire.

Chinfong promptly sent a message to Bayou, hoping that her fears of an ambush would not prove true.

Chunfong, what is the situation? Have you resolved it? Bayou, there's been a problem.

They have suffered total annihilation, and I was unable to save them.

Now, our retreat route is cut off, and I cannot return to the city for the time being.

Chinfo, what about the enemy? How did you manage to come back? By you? The enemy has been dealt with by me.

Returning is a matter of finding a lord when the time comes.

By you do not concern yourselves with my situation.

Focus on a normal assault on a goblin kingdom.

In my absence, you shall command and strive to enhance our strength as swiftly as possible.

Chunfong understood.

Chunfong closed the chat interface while Chuna, who had been closely observing him, also grasped the circumstances.

That despicable angel is truly infuriating.

Why did she not destroy the castle sooner? Now having passed through, it has been obliterated.

It seems I shall not return for several days at least.

The distance between lords is not fixed.

If fortune favors us, we might encounter a lord within a few hours and then return to the city.

However, if luck is against us, it may take a month to return.

Rest assured, all be well.

The fact that she is willing to take such a significant risk for a subject indicates that she is indeed worthy of our loyalty.

Chunfong reassured, "What a nuisance.

I am fully aware.

I simply find the local races utterly detestable, Shinu said indignantly.

Look, the subordinate palace remains intact, which at least signifies that there are no immediate issues.

So, when shall we strike the goblin kingdom? Shall we do so now? Shun inquired further.

Shinfong glanced at the system time.

It was already past 11 in the evening.

Perhaps tomorrow.

This matter needs to be communicated to her undead forces.

Although he had by Yu<unk>s orders, coordinating all the undead required collaboration from the royal and racial leaders.

Very well, then let us rest for the night, Chun said as she headed toward her palace, evidently entrusting this matter to Chinfo.

The night passed without incident.

The following morning, all the undead army had assembled outside the main fortress.

Lonnie and Jon had also returned from the Emerald Hills to the city.

Apart from the four royal guards stationed at Xiao Liianu side and the Emerald Hills, all the royal figures were within the city, including Lonnie and Jon.

There were 15 royal beings in total.

In the city square, the brother and sister duo responsible for commanding this operation along with several undead gathered together.

Due to the previous demise of a necromancer and the absence of one within the city, it was imperative for this battle.

Thus, Chunfong arranged for a necromancer from the Emerald Hills to swap positions with one of the royal figures.

We shall proceed to construct the undead fortress.

The leader mentioned before that it should be built directly beneath the goblin kingdom's barrier.

You'll be responsible for providing cover.

Chun Fong instructed the undead.

Five shall remain behind.

It is insufficient.

We need support.

Lonie's ethereal voice, indistinguishable by gender, echoed.

Chinfong understood Lonie's intent.

This meant deploying 10 royal figures for battle, leaving five to guard.

If our combat strength is inadequate, we shall send additional royal figures for support.

Very well, without further delay, lest set forth at once, Shinfon declared, not wasting any time.

Arthur, you shall carry them with your ascension to the royal level as the primary focus, Lanni instructed Arthur.

and I as well.

Jon interjected appropriately from a side.

Though Jon, now elevated to royal status, possessed the ability to fly, his speed pad in comparison to that of a commanding skeletal dragon.

Shun observed Lanny's azure eyes seemingly cast a glance toward Ja.

Arthur along with the siblings and Jon soared southward with Lanni, Dachi, and 10 royal beings in tow.

As for the colossal zombie titan at the royal level, due to its sluggish movements, it was designated to guard the city of the undead.

Chapter 249.

The assault on the goblin kingdom.

Meanwhile, Bayu was on the verge of cursing.

The expanse of the desert was far more vast than she had anticipated.

After flying through the night, she had yet to glimpse an end to the desolation.

In this barren land, not only had she failed to encounter any lords, but she had not seen a single living creature.

Bayou felt as though she had veered off course.

Otherwise, how could Sun Yubu Bao and the others have thrived in such an aid environment? Surely, one of the four cardinal directions must lead closer to the desert's exit.

However, having already traversed the night, she could only continue her flight eastward.

Before his demise, Suny Yuba had divulged nothing to Bayou.
