From the walls of the fortress, it appeared as if the entire world had fallen into turmoil, everything past a distance of three feet turning into a blur.
The blizzard and icy mist spread with incredible speed, not just affecting the battlefield outside the walls, but also within the fortress. The visibility in the region plunged.
“What’s going on? What happened?!”
The soldiers of the city defense division on the walls began to panic.
The city defense division was divided into six-man teams, and cooperation was the foundation of this division. They had trained to rely on each other, but now, the members of each team could no longer see each other. Even when they tried their best to draw close, they could only make out indistinct silhouettes.
“What’s going on? Is it An Lushan?”
In the center of the fortress, Abusi, Chuluohou, and many other generals stood up in alarm as they watched icy mist overtake the battlefield.
It was their belief that only one person on the enemy side could control the weather: An Lushan!
But hadn’t Wang Chong already neutralized An Lushan’s weather-controlling ability?
Had something changed?
Abusi instinctively turned to Wang Chong.
Though the mist was thick, it had little effect on a Great General like Abusi.
“No, this isn’t a weather-controlling ability!”
Wang Chong shook his head, his eyes also on the battlefield.
This current situation was very similar to a weather-controlling ability, but as Wang Chong spread out his Psychic Energy over the battlefield, he noticed something different.
Wang Chong quickly noticed a unique energy on the battlefield.
“This is a martial art! The Xi Queen’s ability!”
Wang Chong had never fought or interacted with the Xi Queen before, and the Xi Queen’s strength was not obvious, but Wang Chong had still managed to recognize it at a glance.
In the apocalyptic era, An Lushan’s rebellion had drawn the attention of the world. Moreover, the Xi Queen was a woman, so there had been many rumors about her.
“Truly surprising! I didn’t think the leader of the Xi Tribe would possess such extraordinary cultivation!”
Wang Chong smirked.
The Xi Queen’s ability was rather similar to his Divine Embryo 3. But at this present stage, Wang Chong was not prepared to so quickly intervene and personally deal with her.
“Chuluohou, I leave the Xi Queen to you!”
Wang Chong suddenly turned to the deputy commander of the Tongluo Cavalry, Chuluohou.
“Yes!”
Chuluohou’s expression turned grim as he lowered his head and respectfully left.
Back at the Battle of Talas, Chuluohou had been proud and unruly, and Wang Chong had barely any command over him.
But after the Tongluo Tribe narrowly escaped death after the Rebellion of the Three Princes, avoiding the fate of being completely wiped out with the rest of the First Prince’s army, Chuluohou’s attitude experienced a complete reversal, and he treated Wang Chong with utmost respect and admiration. This was even more true now that Wang Chong was ascendant and was now the supreme figure of the Great Tang.
The strong ate the weak, and the victor was king!
This was the Tongluo’s principle.
Wang Chong had used strength to crush the Tongluo and was the War Saint revered by the world. Now that the times had changed, so, naturally, had the Tongluo Tribe’s attitude to Wang Chong.
Without hesitation, Chuluohou turned to leave.
He walked only a few steps before Wang Chong called out to him, “Wait!
“This ritual tool is for you. Use it against the Xi Queen.”
As Wang Chong spoke, he took a long bundle from Old Eagle’s back and tore off the covering, revealing a dazzling, golden object.
Chuluohou’s eyes widened when he saw the object in Wang Chong’s hand, his face paling.
In Wang Chong’s hands was an extremely ancient and elegant golden bow. It was more than five feet long and covered in intricate patterns.
Inscriptions!
Chuluohou could tell at a glance that these were extremely powerful and old inscriptions.
He also saw many reliefs made of darker metal on the bow. These reliefs were of the legendary Seventy-Two Demon God Pillars of Arabia. Black waves surged beneath the feet of these demon gods as they thrust out their palms and roared at the heavens. This was clearly the scene of the Seventy-Two Demon God Pillars being suppressed by God beneath the sea.
The Demon God Bow!
This was a powerful ritual tool that Wang Chong had obtained from the Arabian treasury.
Wang Chong had owned this bow for some time, but he was no master archer. However, Chuluohou was different. For the Tongluo, horse archery was a fundamental skill, and Chuluohou was a stand-out in his tribe.
“Many thanks, Your Highness.”
Chuluohou grabbed the Demon God Bow and left.
……
A cold voice rang out over the battlefield. “Xi Queen, I will count to three. This king is giving you time to leave, but if you do not, this king will be merciless!”
The battlefield fell silent, the snowstorm dwindling in strength.
