A thousand wolf cavalry were like an indestructible blade, directly throwing the twenty thousand cavalry and ten thousand infantry into chaos, unable to form effective counterattacks.
Overwhelming.
Absolutely overwhelming!
Sitting on the city tower, Jun Changxiao held his face in his hand and sang, “Invincibility is so, so lonely, invincibility is so, so empty.”
City Lord Xie’s mouth twitched.
Outside the city, shouts of killing shook the heavens, corpses littered the ground.
Sect Leader Jun still had the leisure to hum here—truly flamboyant!
However, City Lord Xie’s heart was also quite shocked!
These Tiegu Sect disciples, riding Hurricane Wolves, unleashed combat power that was simply too terrifying!
Never mind facing Tao Yuan’s Huwei Army—even facing more elite troops, they could probably sweep through with invincible might!
Especially their use of formations.
That coordination and tacit understanding absolutely wasn’t formed overnight!
Thinking of this, Xie Guangkun couldn’t help but look at Xue Rengui holding the battle flag, thinking, “This person definitely has the talent of a great general!”
“Kill!”
“Kill!”
The Wolf Cavalry Hall members rode Hurricane Wolves, held Cold Edge Swords, seemingly transforming into killing gods, mercilessly harvesting lives.
City Lord Xie’s anxious heart finally settled completely, because from the current situation, Qingyang City was temporarily saved!
“General!”
A deputy general’s face looked ugly as he said, “Retreat!”
Thirty thousand Huwei Army had already lost half, morale had plummeted. If they continued fighting, within half a hour they’d be completely annihilated!
“Damn it!”
Tao Yuan furiously clenched his fist.
His painstakingly cultivated troops were being routed by a thousand people—he absolutely couldn’t accept this!
Not accepting it didn’t change it. To prevent more soldiers from sacrificing, he could only say with regret, “Withdraw troops!”
Since joining the military, this was his first defeat, and in a situation where he had numerical advantage.
“Swish!”
The deputy general waved the battle flag, issuing the withdrawal order.
The Huwei Army soldiers in terror saw this and immediately retreated desperately without caring about anything!
These enemies impervious to blades and spears—they fought with exploding scalps, wishing they had more legs to escape at maximum speed.
“Sect Leader.”
Xue Rengui said, “They’re withdrawing.”
Xie Guangkun’s face showed joy!
Having prepared to live or die with the city, he truly hadn’t expected the final result to be that the enemy troops were beaten and fled in disarray without even attacking the city!
Jun Changxiao said, “Coming and going as they please—do they think my Qingyang Commandery is a market?”
He paused and said, “Annihilate them all, especially that one called Tao Yuan—capture him alive for this seat!”
“Yes!”
Xue Rengui waved the battle flag again.
Receiving the directive, Zhong Yi led the team killing forth again. Using the Hurricane Wolves’ speed, they killed off the soldiers attempting to flee one by one!
“General!”
That deputy general’s face changed greatly, saying, “They’re too fast, we can’t retreat in time!”
Tao Yuan roared, “Magic Blast soldiers block them!”
“Swish! Swish!”
Five hundred Huwei Army soldiers brought out magic blast crossbows, then loaded magic blast arrows.
“Not good!”
Xie Guangkun said, “It’s magic blast crossbow arrows!”
Jun Changxiao sneered coldly and said, “This seat thought they wouldn’t dare reveal them.”
After the crystal core catapults were destroyed, Tao Yuan indeed didn’t dare reveal the magic blast crossbows, because he knew the opponent’s hidden weapons could definitely hit them, causing chain explosions. Now summoning them, they had pulled back considerable distance.
Even the strongest hidden weapon needs range!
I really don’t believe that now ten li from the city, that strange light can fly over!
Whoosh—
Just as Tao Yuan was thinking, a stream of light cut through the void rushing forth, ultimately precisely hitting a magic blast arrow just loaded on a crossbow!
Boom!
Boom boom boom boom!
Explosion sounds never ceased. From the city tower, one could clearly see ten li away, flames soaring skyward, rolling up dust everywhere!
“Hiss hiss hiss!”
The chain explosions disturbed the warhorses, making them rear and neigh, eyes showing terror!
Although Tao Yuan was somewhat far from the explosion, his warhorse was startled and he nearly fell off.
“This…”
He struggled to steady himself, eyes showing disbelief.
“General, be careful!”
Just then, the deputy general beside him cried out in alarm.
Tao Yuan urgently looked to the other side and saw through the dust—Zhong Yi riding a Hurricane Wolf charging straight over!
“Not good!” He urgently tried to flee on horseback but had no time at all!
Zhong Yi put away the Cold Edge Sword, instantly approaching Tao Yuan. His large hand suddenly reached out, grabbing him from the warhorse like picking up a chicken.
“General!” The deputy general and soldiers roared furiously!
Zhong Yi slowed the Hurricane Wolf’s speed, raised Tao Yuan high, and shouted, “All of you quickly drop your weapons and surrender!”
“Damn it!”
Tao Yuan wanted to resist, but when captured, his qi meridians had already been sealed by the opponent. Now he could only be held powerlessly.
With the general captured and wolf cavalry behind them.
The Huwei Army’s deputy general showed utter despair. After brief consideration of pros and cons, he dropped his weapon.
At this point there was no choice—they could only surrender!
“Swish!”
“Swish!”
The Huwei Army soldiers dropped their weapons one after another.
The cavalry also reined in their horses and dismounted.
Since they surrendered, the Wolf Cavalry Hall members naturally wouldn’t continue wanton slaughter, so they formed a defensive line, surrounding the six thousand-plus soldiers.
“Ding! Defeated Zhenyang Commandery’s Huwei Army, meets hidden standard, epic quest completion 30%, host gains 1000 contribution points.”
“Ding! Captured enemy general, meets hidden standard, epic quest completion 50%, host gains 1000 contribution points.”
“Ding! Host successfully defended Qingyang City, meets defined conditions, epic quest completed, completion rate 120%, host gains 4000 contribution points!”
“Ding! Sect contribution points: 9892/5000.”
“Ding! Host exceeded epic quest completion, gains Seal-Opening Talisman ×1, Saint-Grade Aptitude Transformation Liquid ×1, considerable experience points!”
The system notification sounds ended. The spiritual energy in Jun Changxiao’s dantian spiritual core was undergoing qualitative change. Simultaneously, the qi spiral beside it also transformed into spiritual energy!
Whoosh whoosh—
Outside, magnificent attributes emerged from around his body—half showing substantial momentum, half showing sharp momentum!
“Hmm?”
Everyone seemed to sense it and looked up one after another.
Seeing Jun Changxiao enveloped by an aura, they said in surprise, “Is Sect Leader about to break through?”
“Strange.”
Jiang Xie said puzzled, “Why is there such great momentum?”
When he broke through to Wuwang, there was also breakthrough momentum emerging, but compared to Sect Leader, it was clearly like a small witch seeing a great witch!
“Such powerful sword momentum!” Zhou Hong’s eyes showed gravity.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Just then, the two different energies gathering around Jun Changxiao transformed into light beams, racing upward toward the sky at extreme speed, as if they could soar into the clouds!
Jiang Xie was somewhat confused.
When he broke through to Wuwang, there was no such phenomenon!
Beside him, Ye Xingchen’s eyes showed gravity as he said, “When both sword and martial paths reach king level simultaneously, they form momentum breaking through the clouds to announce to the world that a true king has arrived.”
Gah.
Jiang Xie’s expression froze, facial muscles stiffening.
Both sword and martial paths reaching king level?
“Could it be…”
He exclaimed with utter shock, “Sect Leader is achieving Sword-Martial Dual King!”
