For a moment, Jiang Cheng's eyes were bloodshot, and he clenched his teeth in unwillingness.
Now, all he could do was to minimize the losses as much as possible.
Thus, his voice, infused with immortal energy, rang out.
"Enemy attack!"
"A Star Immortal Realm expert is about to self-destruct! Everyone, run as far away as you can!"
Jiang Cheng's voice, filled with desperation, urgently called out to the guards at Gate Nine.
Hearing the shout, all the guards scrambled like ants on a hot pan, quickly fleeing in all directions.
Seeing the guards begin to retreat, Jiang Cheng's expression finally softened a bit.
However, just as he was about to breathe a sigh of relief that there were no casualties, he saw a small soldier still standing dumbly at the city gate, unmoving.
"Is this soldier stupid?"
Jiang Cheng angrily shouted.
"Little brother, hurry up and run!"
Nearby, an old soldier also anxiously shouted. The destructive power of a Star Immortal Realm self-destruction was something they, as Earth Immortals, couldn't withstand.
Yet, Su Yanjin remained rooted in place, unmoving.
"It's over."
The others were shocked. The terrifying power of a Star Immortal Realm expert's self-destruction would surely leave this Earth Immortal reduced to nothing but dust.
The old soldier's eyes began to moisten as he watched Su Yanjin about to be obliterated, letting out a helpless sigh.
"This kid is too foolish."
Vice-Chancellor Jiang Cheng saw this scene and knew there was no turning back. He could only watch helplessly, feeling his spirit grow older in that moment.
This explosion, even if the loss of this soldier was set aside, would inevitably have a significant impact on the main city's array.
Jiang Cheng lowered his head, unwilling to look.
However.
Just as the explosion was about to occur in a few breaths, ten breaths passed, yet there was still no sound.
This made Jiang Cheng puzzled.
He steeled himself and looked up.
"What?!"
The scene before him made him instantly dumbfounded, his mouth letting out a sound like a dried duck.
He actually saw that the several Sun and Moon Immortal Realm experts who were about to self-destruct were being stepped on by that seemingly foolish soldier, their faces in excruciating pain.
Moreover, the self-destructing aura on their bodies seemed to be rapidly diminishing.
Jiang Cheng was dumbfounded.
What the hell? Was this something a city gate guard could do?
He directly stepped on several Sun and Moon Immortal Realm experts who were about to self-destruct?
And he actually suppressed their self-destructing power?
Who exactly was this soldier?
Jiang Cheng's eyes widened and he quickly flew over.
Halfway there, he recognized this soldier. Wasn't he the one who was off duty when he and the Chancellor inspected last time?
It seemed his name was Su Yanjin?
But damn it, wasn't he just an Earth Immortal?
An Earth Immortal being this strong?
Being able to suppress several Sun and Moon Immortal Realm experts who were about to self-destruct—that at least required the strength of a Sun and Moon Immortal Realm expert.
Jiang Cheng flew to Su Yanjin's side and found that not only were the Sun and Moon Immortal Realm cultivators stepped on, but they were completely crippled by Su Yanjin.
He immediately sucked in a breath of cold air and looked up at the soldier in front of him.
"Su Yanjin, you... you!"
Jiang Cheng stammered, unsure of what to say.
The others also saw this scene and were collectively dumbfounded.
"What... what is going on?"
Everyone on the scene was instantly dumbfounded.
An Earth Immortal, actually stepping on Sun and Moon Immortal Realm cultivators? Was this going to defy the heavens?
The faces of everyone present showed expressions of disbelief, unable to recover for a long, long time.
Only then did they realize that there was a supreme expert standing at Gate Nine of their city!
Squad Leader Zhang Cheng stared with wide eyes, cold sweat pouring down his face. He had treated Su Yanjin neither harshly nor respectfully in the past.
