Chapter 208: Encirclement of the Huang family
Lu Zhen looked inside and found a single injured man who had fallen to the ground, while there were already four corpses in the ground.
Thud!
The injured man also fell to the ground with lifeless eyes.
"Oh, why are you here, son?" Lu Ying said as she looked at Lu Zhen with a confused gaze. She had already turned into her human form, her body soaked in blood.
"Well, I was concerned about you…" Lu Zhen said with a cough.
A smile appeared on her face when she heard this.
"My son has started caring for me," a smile appeared on her face.
"We have a war to fight; our battle isn't over yet, mother." Lu Zhen said with a calm tone, trying to change the subject.
"You are right," she nodded her head with a contemplative expression.
"Grand elders, please." Lu Zhen said as he beckoned.
And the seven second-stage martial artists touched the wooden cage, and it disappeared, returning to the ground as if it didn't exist in the first place.
Revealing the outside world.
The soldiers were still staring daggers at each other; however, the difference was that now one side had proud eyes as their killing aura erupted, covering the entire ground, while the Xia family soldiers all wore cowardly expressions with despair etched in their eyes.
Without the battle even starting, they had already taken steps back and were on the verge of fleeing.
However, before they could run, a bellowing battle cry sounded as countless soldiers circled both armies in a tightly packed manner, encircling them as a whole.
Lu Zhen had a frown on his face when he saw the uniform of the army. They were from the Huang family.
"I didn't expect the Huang family to arrive so late to the party," Lu Zhen said in a loud voice, his words reaching far and wide.
"Well, you have done us a great favor by killing the grand elders of the Xia family. Thank you, Lu Zhen." The tone was filled with a mocking undertone, making Lu Zhen's eyes narrow to a sliver.
"Oh, I want to see where you get the confidence from," a smirk appeared on Lu Zhen's face as his expression turned serious.
Roar!
He roared with a loud voice, gathering all the attention of the Lu family army.
"Fight."
Although Lu Zhen didn't have full command of the army, the whole army seemed to instinctively react to Lu Zhen's battle cry as their backs strengthened, and their eyes seemed to emit a terrifying fire.
"What are all of you?" Lu Zhen said in a loud voice.
The soldiers were a little confused when they heard this as it remained silent. However, one of the soldiers raised their hand and said, "We are soldiers, young master."
Lu Zhen nodded his head, however, he had a disappointed expression on his face.
Seeing this, the confusion of the soldiers grew. Before another raised their hand, "We are human beings, young master."
Lu Zhen's eyes lit up when he heard this as he looked at the entire army.
"So what is the right of living beings?"
"To live, young master."
"So what is stopping you from living here?"
"This… the enemies?" an uncertain expression appeared on the faces of the soldiers.
"Yes, the enemies. It's either you die or them. Don't you have your family or loved ones waiting at your home? Do you want to see them in tears when they see a lifeless corpse?"
"No, young master." The soldiers who had raised their hands weren't the only ones to reply, as the entire army roared in unison.
"Well, they don't deserve to die either, but do you think they will spare you if they get the chance?"
"No, young master."
"Then what will you do?"
"We will fight, young master."
"We will fight, young master."
"We will fight, young master."
The ground seemed to tremble from the voices of millions of soldiers as their eyes glinted with a predator's light, like that of a wild animal.
"Then attack." Lu Zhen's voice was the final straw that broke all the soldiers, and all hell broke loose as they attacked the Xia family soldiers first.
Lu Ying and the grand elder were stunned, but they kept quiet. They had already considered Lu Zhen as the leader.
Lu Zhen casually took out his bow and shot a demonic arrow, which flicked in the air as it whizzed towards a random captain.
The third-stage martial artist felt a shiver run down his spine as he looked around, however, he couldn't see anything, as a searing pain came from his chest and melted his entire body as a whole.
Not giving him even time to see what hit him!
The entire Xia army was silenced as they backed away instead of advancing.
"Run."
A random soldier couldn't handle the pressure and ran away.
With that simple guy running away, all hell broke loose since they didn't have a commander, and the army fled.
After all, even though they were war-trained soldiers, when it came to dying, everyone was scared of it, especially if it was a pointless death.
"Wait." Lu Zhen said, pausing the entire marching army, which made all the soldiers confused. Even Lu Ying and the other grand elders were puzzled as well.
"Let them run." A sneer appeared on his face as he used his bow to take out another captain of the Xia family soldiers, making them more headless flies.
The Xia family army ran towards the Huang family instead, and due to their panic, they killed many Huang family soldiers while trying to escape the encirclement.
"Damn it." Huang Kai gritted his teeth in anger as he looked at the Xia family army who were attacking his Huang family army.
"These insignificant insects…" he roared as he launched himself up and took out his double-bladed scimitar.
Boom!
He landed right inside the Xia family army. As he landed, the ground cracked, and the soldiers lost their balance, with some falling down from the cracked ground.
