Chapter 720 - Murder

Chapter 720 – Murder

When people were in dire straits, they would do something very crazy.

For example, Helian Family.

The people of Helian Family believed that the curse their family received was controlled by the perverts of the Great Western Star Observation Pavilion. As for the reason, it was because the Yuwen family, as the nearest neighbor of the Helian Family, did not wish for the Helian Family to rise again. No one could explain whether this reason was sufficient or not. In any case, everyone in Helian Family hated the Chen family for their hatred towards the Yuwen family.

This hatred has been instilled and entrenched since childhood. Thus, even three-year-old children of Helian Family would rush into the courtyard to kill with their wooden sabers, shouting for the entire Yuwen family to kill.

This was the most frightening part of it.

An Zheng, Chen Zhongqi, and Xia Houdan all had a strange atmosphere between them.

They brought less than two hundred cavalrymen with them as they continued west. No one knew how many more dangers they would face along the way. Xia Houdan did not move an inch away from Chen Zhongqi, as he kept on being vigilant of An Zheng’s attacks. Chen Zhongqi’s expression was miserable, as if he had suddenly aged several tens of years.

The group stopped to rest in a ditch. From a distance, they could not see anything. After leaving behind the vigilant soldiers, the people who ran for a day and a night took a break.

An Zheng stood on the side of the ditch and looked far away, his face slightly changing.

He tilted his head and listened. There were sounds, but they were not clear.

“Let’s go!”

An Zheng turned his head to look at them and rushed down the slope to wake up the soldiers who had just fallen asleep. These well-trained cavalrymen were jolted awake. Although they did not know what had happened, they immediately stood up and pulled their warhorses up. As they reached the top of the ravine, they began to think of a southwest direction, because this time they were being intercepted from the front.

However, just as they were about a dozen miles away from the place, a black mass of cavalrymen appeared in front of them. The words’ Helian ‘on the flag were very clear.

“Ha ha!”

Chen Zhongqi could not help but sneer: “Even this kind of third-rate family couldn’t help but stand out. This world has changed, and all of the wolf ambitions have emerged. But weren’t they afraid of their clan being exterminated? No matter how big the world is, it’s not their turn to divide it up. ”

An Zheng looked at him coldly, “Think of a way to hug your last remaining soldier, one that is more important than you ridiculing the people of the Helian Family.”

Chen Zhongqi was stunned for a moment and did not say a word.

The black mass of cavalrymen on the horizon very quickly rushed to the front, and on both sides, were all the cavalrymen from Helian Family. As for the pursuers behind them, they weren’t too far away either. They were in an endless plain with no hiding spots.

“Are you afraid of death?”

Xia Houdan who was in front of the convoy raised his long lance and shouted.

After days of killing, the soldiers already knew what would happen to them. Every single one of them had made their final preparations. They might not truly be unafraid of death, but there was no way out.

“No!”

The two hundred men shouted loudly.

“Then follow me! Charge over and show those bastards what a cavalry man is!”

Xia Houdan took the lead. Behind him, two hundred cavalrymen formed a line of arrows with Xia Houdan as the arrow, and started charging towards the tens of thousands of enemies. The sharp arrow formation was the most powerful offensive formation of the Da Xi cavalry. In this decisive battle, there was no way to retreat.

Xia Houdan charged at the very front and thrusted his lance forward. The enemy closest to him was pierced through, the three foot long lance blade pierced through the enemy directly, the enemy’s corpse was hung on his long lance and he pushed forward. The second, third …

Following Xia Houdan’s explosive shout, the corpse of the long lance was flung out, and like a cannonball, it smashed the enemy who was charging at them to death. His long lance flew up and down, and no one could last one round in front of him. The sharp blade pierced straight through the enemy’s throat. Blood Chop had lost half of the shoulder of another enemy. With a sweep, four to five enemies were cut in half by him.

In the bloody mist, the arrow pointed right at him pierced right into the enemy’s formation.

If one were to look down from the sky, they would definitely be stunned beyond belief. Only two hundred cavalrymen fearlessly attacked the tens of thousands of cavalrymen. It was like a mountain, and they were a dagger. No matter how one looked at it, a dagger wouldn’t be able to shake a mountain. However, they were able to pierce into the mountains, and they were able to open a path along the way!

Xia Houdan was in front of the center, while his two vice generals were on his left and right. Then, the soldiers spread out to the sides, leaving the rest of the soldiers to form arrows behind, protecting Chen Zhongqi within them.

The sound of the long lance slicing open their muscles and bones was extremely hair-raising. In just a few minutes, all of their bodies were soaked in fresh blood. However, it seemed as though the enemies couldn’t be killed. They fell to the ground and quickly filled in the gap.

At first, the team could maintain the speed of their charge as they wedged their way into the enemy’s formation. However, after advancing only a few dozen meters, it was as if they had fallen into a quagmire. The enemy surged towards them likidal wave, and everyone was trapped in their original position, unable to move an inch.

At this point, everyone knew that they were going to die for sure. When the cavalrymen lost their speed and stood there motionless, the result was already decided. However, all of them had already forgotten about life and death, and their eyes were all bloodshot. The only thought in his mind was to kill one more, and another!

The long lance was too close, and it was unable to move.

“Change the sabre!”

Xia Houdan roared.

His cavalry troops neatly threw out the long lance s in their hands. The enemies that had gathered in front of them were neatly cut down one level. Then, the soldiers drew out the one-meter-long saber at their waists and began to engage in close combat. As the enemy drew closer, the sound of the knife slicing through bone could be heard, and as the blood splattered on his face, he felt the heat grow even hotter.

One soldier fell, and one was killed by an enemy arrow.

Xia Houdan did not change the blade because he could still control a large enough space. But seeing his subordinates die one after another, his heart felt as if it had been stabbed with a knife.

[Ten Thousand Edge Array]!

Xia Houdan’s long lance stabbed the ground and countless long lance drilled out from the ground, piercing through and killing everyone within a two hundred meter radius. However, foechnique like this, every time Xia Houdan used it, it meant that he was even closer to death. The more times he used this extremely terrifying cultivation method, the weaker he would become. The area around them had been cleared out by 200 meters, giving them a short period of time to catch their breath. Xia Houdan looked back, only seventy to eighty people were left under him.

Chen Zhongqi was still riding on his horse in the middle of the group. He did not make any moves, nor did he intend to make any moves.

And An Zheng had already disappeared.

Xia Houdan scolded, and two seconds later, the enemy pounced on him even more ferociously, as if he was pushed back by the receding tide.

One of his lieutenants was pulled off his horse by a few crazy enemies not far away, and was hacked down with countless knives. In just a few seconds, the person that was alive earlier was sliced into pieces.

When the Lieutenant General fell on the ground, he subconsciously reached out his hand towards Xia Houdan, but before he could raise his hand, his hand was chopped off. It was followed by a head, as if the blade had cut it off. Blood and brain matter flowed all over the place, and someone was stepped into the soil. The sound of the stepped on the ground was like paste, giving off a creepy feeling.

Xia Houdan turned his head to look at Chen Zhongqi once again, but the latter was still sitting on the horse.

“Xifeng Lie!”

Xia Houdan hoarsely roared, his tears flowing uncontrollably down his face. The remaining thirty to forty soldiers were still fighting with all their might. Hearing General Xiahou’s roar, they subconsciously began to chant with him.

“Banner Flags!”

“Powerful soldiers that have broken through 10,000 li, triumphant return home.”

“The long blade rises together with the wind, the iron-like lance protects the nation’s borders!”

“No retreating, no stopping, no lowering your head, good Da Xi.”

That was Da Xi’s war song. Every time they returned from their triumphant return, they would sing loudly.

But now, they were going to die from singing.

Those who had fallen had eyes filled with infinite nostalgia. They were all young men in their prime, and every one of them was proud. They had never thought about whether or not the death in battle had been to protect their family and protect their country. However, they were all soldiers. The fate of the soldiers was either to return home in glory or to die in battle.

At this time, An Zheng had already rushed out from the tens of thousands of army likawk and headed straight for the Helian Family’s Commander Flag. He didn’t know if he could save the last few soldiers by himself, but he had to. He did not do this to protect Chen Zhongqi, but to protect those innocent soldiers.

An Zheng’s left hand pushed forward as he charged forward. The scorching sun in his left hand turned everyone who approached him into ashes. This kind of charge without regard for the cost was considered fast for the consumption of the Cultivation Power, but An Zheng no longer had a second to waste.

He didn’t know how many people had died at his hands, and those people had their own family and friends, but they were wrong. There had never been any mercy on the battlefield. Whoever showed mercy to him would be the first to die from his pity. An Zheng directly rushed through the troops and rushed towards the main banner in the center.

“Kill him!”

Helian Ting, who was mounted on a demonic beast, shouted loudly.

Countless arrows shot towards An Zheng, dense enough to cover the sky.

An Zheng pushed his hands forward, and under the vast Cultivation Power, all the arrows flew back, at least a few hundred of them were knocked to the ground. Amidst a wail, An Zheng rose into the air and grabbed towards Helian Ting’s throat.

“With just you?!”

Helian Tianan’s longsword was raised diagonally from bottom to top as sword qi slashed out like a waterfall. An Zheng turned his body in mid air and the Sword Qi soared to the clouds.

Such a strong cultivation!

Didn’t they say that there were very few men in Helian Family who could live past fifty years of age? Why was this man so young yet his cultivation was so tyrannical?

An Zheng did not have much time to think about it, tens of Holy Fish Scale were separated out from his body and killed everyone within a hundred meter radius around him like a meat grinder. None of the bodies were intact, not a single one was intact.

Helian Ting was furious. He grabbed a long lance from a personal guard beside him and threw it towards An Zheng. An Zheng dodged to the side, and the long lance shot through the bodies of the countless soldiers behind like a cannonball, forcefully drawing a line of blood in the midst of the army!

There was a clang!

The Broken Army Sword flew out, and a sword light that was more than ten meters long pierced straight through.

Helian Ting saw that the sword aura was coming straight at him. He brought his hands together and two huge palms appeared in the air. Wita sound, they clamped onto the sword beam.

“I was born the Son of Heaven, how dare you touch me?!”

Helian Ting pointed at An Zheng: “Break him for me!”
