”Anyone who stops me dies!”
Putting aside Zhang Long, Zhao Hu, Chen Qiong, Li Zhi, and the others in the rear, up ahead, Jiaosiluo was bellowing as he plowed a bloody path, charging forward with more strength than he had ever used in his entire life.
Impossible! Impossible! My Swordfanged Beast Halo is a supreme technique of the Great Snow Mountain Holy Temple! Master said to me before that with my abilities, as long as I didn't encounter someone like Wang Yan or Xianyu Zhongtong, no one would be able to menace me. How could it be dispelled in a single move?!
How could the Great Tang have someone like this?
It was impossible to describe the panic in Jiaosiluo's heart.
The joint attack had completely annihilated all his confidence. Right now, Jiaosiluo only had a third of his original Stellar Energy, and this Stellar Energy was being depleted at an astonishing speed.
Such were the results of having his beast transformation forcefully dispelled.
A joint attack skill? Which skill was it?
In this battle, only Jiaosiluo was aware that the truly lethal blow that had blown away his Stellar Energy was not Luo Ji's spear or Zhao Wujiang, but the joint attack formation formed by those eight other people.
By the time Luo Ji's spear had stabbed into his body, his Stellar Energy had already been broken.
The Great Tang definitely doesn't have this sort of formation. It must be that brat, it must be…
Jiaosiluo was both astonished and afraid, his entire body trembling. That figure had risen unbidden in his mind. If there was one person who could design such a formation, it was unquestionably that brat.
In this more than a month, Jiaosiluo had never seen such a joint attack formation from the Great Tang. If they had such a thing, they would have used it long ago.
Damn it! Damn it! Damn it…
Jiaosiluo's entire body was shaking, but not with rage. The only thing in his mind was a profound fear. He could guarantee that Zhao Wujiang's feigned defeat to bait him was planned by that boy.
In Jiaosiluo's entire life, he had never felt such fear toward a youth who was weaker than him.
Although that boy was clearly much weaker in terms of strength, Jiaosiluo could not stir any thoughts of revenge. All he felt was fear and an ardent desire to leave this place, leave this mountain.
From the battle together with Fengjiayi to the ambush in the rain and then the ambush of Zhao Wujiang and nine others just now… Jiaosiluo could find no interest in fighting in front of that youth.
Jiaosiluo had felt this feeling before, in front of the Great Minister!
Rumble!
A peal of thunder came from below the mountain as the neighs of countless horses and the clattering of armor mixed together. Jiaosiluo could sense that the Great General had already begun to move and that a new batch of cavalry and experts was currently charging up the mountain. But they would arrive too late.
I have to get back to the army. Only by returning to the Mengshe–Ü-Tsang ranks can I have any hope of survival!
Jiaosiluo's heart was beating fast and he could smell the stench of death. Never had Jiaosiluo felt death so close. It felt like a dagger was prodding into his back, pursuing him like his own shadow. No matter where he went, he could not escape.
”Hand over your life!”
A heaven-shaking roar suddenly rose behind him. After such a long time, Luo Ji had finally caught up. Clang! While a dragon's call echoed through the skies, Luo Ji stomped a foot on the ground. His entire body took off like a cannon shot, the spear in his hands seeming to dance. It was no longer some simple spear, but a dragon, a flood dragon rising from the depths of a deep pool.
Roar!
Luo Ji's eyes turned cold as the spear in his hand called out. Suddenly, it transformed into a bolt of lightning aimed right at Jiaosiluo's back.
”Not good!”
Jiaosiluo was greatly startled, feeling like his soul had left his body. In the past, he would have been able to block Luo Ji's spear, but right now, his strength was utterly insufficient.
Boom!
Suddenly, a Tibetan scimitar flew out of the void and struck Luo Ji's spear. This spear which had been imbued with destructive energy was jolted away.
”Protect General!”
A mustachioed Tibetan officer riding on a horse brushed past Jiaosiluo, his eyes narrowed and gleaming with a sharp light as he leaped toward Luo Ji.
”Kubatuo!”
Jiaosiluo's eyes widened in shock. He recognized this officer, but it wasn't one of his subordinates…
But Kubatuo paid no attention to Jiaosiluo! Clang! His scimitar was already slashing at Luo Ji!
”Impudent!”
Such was Luo Ji's strength that even Jiaosiluo was wary of him, so why did he need to fear these other Tibetan officers? Bang! A single palm was enough to shatter the horse's head and send the body of that muscular highland steed flying off together with the general on its back.
But mere moments after he dispatched the Tibetan officer, more neighs could be heard as another seven or eight Tibetan officers charged forward on their highland steeds.
