At midnight, the thunderous sound of hooves shook the plains, sweeping past a patch of jungle as thirty thousand Vermilion Bird Knights surged forward like a sea of fire.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"
A patrol of Cavalry shouted urgently, but unfortunately, the shouting Colonel's pupils suddenly contracted, and he could no longer make any sound. At that moment, his throat had already been cut, and the assailant was none other than Wang Lie, who led the charge at the forefront. With one swift strike, the opponent's head was severed.
Like a tempest clearing the clouds, the Vermilion Bird Knights eliminated all sentries around Ancient Stone City.
...
As dawn approached, a solitary fortress stood among the mountains; it was Ancient Stone City, occupied by Heavenly Hu, a general under Peng Yue. A large number of Crimson Rock Cavalry were asleep inside the city. When the iron hooves of the Vermilion Bird Knights shattered the tranquility of the city, the weary night watch Soldiers finally awoke and hurriedly shouted, "The enemy has reached the foot of the city! Sound the horn immediately!"
The horn sounded loudly, waking the sleeping Crimson Rock Cavalry, who quickly rolled out of bed and donned their armor to prepare for battle.
"Don't give them a chance to breathe; attack the city immediately!"
Below the city, Wang Lie raised his Blade and laughed heartily. He suddenly lifted his long knife and shouted, "Blade Strike!"
"Boom!"
A long blade light shot out and struck the ground, unleashing immense power that pierced through with a series of explosive impacts at one corner of the city. This blade strike was an Earth Level Martial Art that Wang Lie learned from Hidden Dragon Hall; it proved to be quite effective and immensely powerful.
"Bang bang bang..."
A terrifying crack spread across one corner of the city, and several archers from Ancient Stone City fell to their deaths amidst the rubble. The Ancient Stone City had been abandoned for a long time and was only used temporarily for troop deployment; how could it withstand the assault of a Starry Sky Expert like Wang Lie?
"Creak..."
The city gate opened, and hundreds of Crimson Rock Cavalry charged out, brandishing their sabers and shouting loudly, "The Qi State thieves dare to ambush us! Let's chop them to pieces!"
Wang Lie sheathed his long knife, raised his arm, and commanded in a low voice, "Fire!"
Among the archers were many skilled Dragon Armored Warriors. As bowstrings twanged in succession, countless Cold Lights arced through the air. The Azure Dawn Arrows infused with Starlit True Qi and Earth True Qi were incredibly sharp; although the Crimson Rock Cavalry wore complete Armor, they could not withstand them at all!
"Thud thud thud..."
Blood splattered as the Azure Dawn Arrow pierced through the Armor, tearing apart the flesh of the soldiers. In an instant, hundreds of Crimson Rock Cavalry lay dead outside the city, their bodies cold.
"Quick, close the city gates! This is the main force of the Qi Army!" Someone shouted loudly, and the iron gates of Ancient Stone City slowly began to close under the pull of chains.
Wang Lie laughed heartily, "Want to close the gates? You should ask us distant guests first!"
As he spoke, Wang Lie leaped fiercely from his Vermilion Bird Warhorse. The War Blade shone brightly again, and a blade of True Qi infused with earth element was unleashed, crashing directly towards the city gates. If this strike hit head-on, the already shaky gates of Ancient Stone City would surely collapse.
"Bang!"
With a loud noise, a glowing palm descended from the sky and forcefully dissipated Wang Lie's blade aura into the ground. A female warrior clad in a red battle robe descended from above, standing on a Divine Crystal cyclone. She was none other than Heavenly Hu, the protector of Ancient Stone City and commander of the Crimson Rock Cavalry.
"Hey there, little girl!" Wang Lie laughed.
Before ascending to the heavenly realm, Heavenly Hu was originally a woman from a wild tribe, exuding a fierce aura. With two thick braids tied behind her back and dual swords in hand, she glared angrily and said, "You black giant! How dare you come with thousands of troops to challenge my Ancient Stone City? You're simply seeking death!"
Wang Lie chuckled lightly, "Who are you calling a black giant? I am a general under Qi King, holding a fourth-rank position..."
"Qi King?"
Heavenly Hu hovered in mid-air, looking at the densely packed Qi Army in the distance. She couldn't help but gasp in shock. "Didn't Qi State form an alliance with Lord Peng Yue? Why would they launch a night raid on Ancient Stone City?"
Wang Lie replied disdainfully, "Hmph, what alliance? Peng Yue has long harbored ill intentions. Besides, to achieve his goals by any means necessary—Liu Bang and Peng Yue's alliance even resorted to using Asura God to slaughter hundreds of thousands of innocent civilians. Such an unprincipled army is beneath us. Heavenly Hu, surrender to our Qi Army now, and I guarantee you will enjoy endless glory and wealth!"
Heavenly Hu glared fiercely: "Surrender to you? Dream on! Do you have that capability?"
As she spoke, Heavenly Hu let out a fierce shout and descended from the sky with her dual swords raised. Divine Crystal Power surged on her blades as she unleashed two swift strikes!
Wang Lie braced himself and raised his long knife to block. With two clashing sounds, his long knife was instantly sent flying; even his palms were shattered, blood splattering everywhere as he was thrown backward. It was evident that one was in the Stellar Realm while the other was in the Celestial Realm—the disparity was simply too great.
"Come and take my life!"
A long spike of Divine Crystal formed on the blade of Heavenly Hu's sword, its tip possessing immense penetrating power, clearly aimed at taking Wang Lie's life!
In a critical moment, a flash of red light passed by, and with a clang, a Sharp Sword clashed against Heavenly Hu's blade. It was Charming Yama who saved Wang Lie's life. However, after this strike, Charming Yama's blood surged, unable to withstand Heavenly Hu's vast Divine Power. Blood already seeped from the corner of his mouth as he quickly retreated!
Heavenly Hu pursued, but suddenly a large man descended from the sky, his iron fist crashing down!
Boom!
Divine Crystal Power surged, and Heavenly Hu was forced back several dozen meters. Not bothering to look closely, he couldn't help but sneer, "So it's the legendary Beast God Valley's heir. I wonder who has such skills. However, after your beast bones are enhanced, your Bloodline is slowly petrifying. Let me strike you a few more times and see how you die!"
Zhang Tianhe swung his arms, unafraid, and calmly said, "Come at me then, you indiscriminate woman!"
"Pah! Seeking death!"
...
As Heavenly Hu prepared to attack again, Zhang Tianhe was also on guard.
Just as the two Divine-level Experts were about to clash fiercely, a voice suddenly descended from above: "Tianhe, stop!"
Zhang Tianhe and Heavenly Hu both looked up to see a fire dragon soaring in the sky. On the back of the fire dragon lay Yun Xiaoxi, while Ye Yang donned black Armor and held the Haotian Sword, looking down calmly and saying, "I am Ye Yang from Qi State's royal family. Heavenly Hu, do not rush into battle!"
Heavenly Hu raised an eyebrow in surprise as he looked at Ye Yang and said, "You are the one who defeated Dafeng and Zaochi? You don't look like it; such a delicate young man shouldn't possess such overwhelming strength."
Ye Yang smiled lightly. "That doesn't matter now. What matters most is how you will submit to me. You know I don't want to add to the bloodshed. These tens of thousands of Crimson Rock Cavalry are all living people with wives and parents. If they die on the battlefield, there will surely be families mourning in white."
Heavenly Hu curled his lips slightly and said, "To subdue me? Hmph! That depends on whether you have that capability!"
"Peng Yue can give you what I can give you as well, so speak!" Ye Yang said.
Heavenly Hu chuckled and replied, "Peng Yue granted me a thousand acres of land, along with countless gold and silver."
"I can do that too!" Ye Yang said in a deep voice.
Heavenly Hu looked at Ye Yang, and suddenly the sword light in her hand surged violently. "I am not someone who wavers. If you want me to surrender, you must defeat me; otherwise, I will go to meet Peng Yue!"
"Alright!"
Ye Yang leaped down from the dragon's back, holding the Haotian Sword and standing in mid-air. "If you can withstand my strike, I will immediately withdraw my troops; otherwise, you, Heavenly Hu, will from now on be a general of Qi State!"
"Fair enough, come on!"
Heavenly Hu channeled her True Qi, and Divine Power surged. A thick layer of Divine Crystal Energy appeared on her dual swords, with blood-red branches rising up and coalescing into a purplish-red umbrella shield, raised high as she laughed. "Ye Yang, if you can break my Blood Umbrella, I, Heavenly Hu, will serve you from now on as your subordinate!"
Ye Yang raised the Haotian Sword high above his head, gathering Divine Power with fierce battle intent in his eyes. He laughed heartily and said, "Then it seems I have secured this general for myself!"
