Book 39 - Chapter 10 – Suprehteous (1/2)
On Helian Hill, dead bodies were strewn everywhere in open space, blood flowed like a river
Their arrows exhausted, their bullets depleted, the three were no longer able to utilize the eous darkness and the favorable location of the top of the hill to resist the enemy outside the fort
The enehan and Kou Zhong to retreat and defend the wall and platforate alone, which was the only access to the fort As long as he could closely guard this pass, the only way the enemy could attack the second floor’s wall and platfor over the wall
The Helian Fort, which was so sturdy that iron hammer could not break it, has becoth exhausted The Helian Fort became like the honey where the Golden Wolf Army rapidly swar for a crack, looking for a gap – that they could exploit to attack
The Treasured-Vase Qi flared out, how could two Tujue warriors be able to withstand? Their bodies were thrown backward, they crashed onto the other warriors charging up the hill, suffering a crushi+ng defeat However, Xu Ziling also felt that his strength suffered sudden drain Reaching backhandedly, he snatched an ene another ene backwards while spurting blood and landed outside the door
Saber light flashed again, he hacked down an iron shi+eld The spiraling energy sent theout the door, and disappeared froht
The torches bathed the Helian Fort red No one could tell the difference between the red from the blaze and the red of the blood The battle was desperate to the extre with it a very strong gust of wind, forcing the other Tujue warriors to scatter around like dead leaves The speed, the tile were flawless, so that the only option left for Xu Ziling was to stake everything to ot about all the wounds, big and small, on his body; he knew that if he failed to block this ten-thousand-jun-thunderbolt pal a deep breath, he concentrated the hidden power generated by Huan Ri Da Fa, while his mouth spat up an incantation, like a sudden ruht palm collided head-to-head with the opponent’s pal spurted out a ered half a step backward But the shooting out toppling-the-hly-concentrated – Treasured-Vase Qi and the spiraling energy alsoback, revealing Tonyukuk’s clear and strange, as well as bri with astonishment – expression; evidently he refused to believe the outcome of this head-on, stake-it-all move
Two cavalry sabers iap left by Tonyukuk, separately attacking Xu Ziling’s face and the vital points between his chest and abdomen The attack was fierce and severe, unlike ordinary Golden Wolf warriors at all
Xu Ziling sighed inwardly, knowing that he did not have er would he be able to hold on?
His short shout of incantation co of the ene the entire battlefield But at the sa-hard-battle Ba Fenghan and Kou Zhong on the second floor; at least they knew that Xu Ziling downstairs was still alive, and was still defending the south gate steadily
Kou Zhong’s chasing-the-spirit-and-snatching-the-soul Moon in the Well’s yellow light was flashi+ng everywhere across the watchtower Unleashi+ng his saber technique, he gave everything he had, using the newly co it all, enduring the ene his blood, eachhis life to ga more than a dozen men, unexpectedly no one was fit to meet his saber; he had killed all the Golden Wolf Ar up to hi neck and broken bones, their dead bodies were piling up at the foot of the wall
‘Dang!’
Powerful counter force shocked his arm that it went numb This was the first time anybody was able to, not only parry his Moon in the Well, but fight back as well The tip of his toes tapped the top of the wall, the person soared into the air, the long cavalry saber stabbed down on the top of Kou Zhong’s head
The shenfa [body movement] and daofa [saber technique] fused into one, the style was exquisite beyond co tightly
At the same time, another man rose up to the top of the wall, Water Caltrop Spear shot out of his sleeve, fast as lightning it fleard the pit of Kou Zhong’s sto’s left palm swept the top of the Water Caltrop Spear, while his saber swept upward Laughing heartily, he said, “Great Khan is too courteous; even if you want to send off the guests, you don’t need to accouests to the nether world”
Naturally the saber wielder was the Eastern Tujue’s Great Khan, the overlord of the prairie, Xieli The master of the Water Caltrop Spear was Zhao Deyan, who ranked third aht Major Martial Art Masters of the Deo all out to get rid of Kou Zhong first before dealing with Ba Fenghan on the other side
This moment more than a dozen Tujue martial art masters appeared on the top of the wall Their only mission on the battlefield was, even if they had to sacrifice their life – to protect Xieli at all cost, not to let any har upon him; at any time, they must be as inseparable as foring te, hence he rushed ahead of the!’
The Moon in the Well, sweeping upward, displayed a subtle change that was difficult to believe, so that no ed his offensive, the saber blade was still sweeping it up Xieli’s entire body shook, being swept up by Kou Zhong that he soared up, and
One was standing on the ground, the other side hanging in !’
The tip of the pal it to sweep away Kou Zhong abruptly twisted his bear-waist, like a canopy in front of hiht to stab the pit of Zhao Deyan’s stoht next year would be the anniversary of his death
Three spears and two sabers, several people attacked hiht, but they were still a tad too slow
Zhao Deyan showed a look of disdain The Water Caltrop Spear slithered back into his sleeve like a viper, his left hand swiftly chopped, hecheered inwardly; just now he borrowed Xieli’s true qi, guaranteed toloss
He was not worried that Zhao Deyan would not fall into the trap, because Zhao Deyan still thought that Kou Zhong was still like the Kou Zhong in Chang’an, how could he be afraid to ’s saber head-on?
‘Pow!
Zhao Deyan hit the blade of the saber; instantly his countenance changed greatly
Vortex of energy shot out; like a violent wind, angry wave it rolled into Zhao Deyan, so that even Zhao Deyan was unable to stand He spun backward and fell outside the wall If it were a second class uaranteed that before he hit the ground, he would have spurted out blood and died
Kou Zhong swiftly retreated backward, so that the ene aloud, he said, “Fenghan Xiong, it’s time to protect the stairs!”
His voice spread out far and wide
The entire Helian Fort was designed in such a way that itsas iron, it need not beup to the second floor of the city gate tower, this level was divided into inner and outer, two layers of defensive line On top of the city wall, there was still square-shaped city gate tower The third level’s watchtower platform could acco as the cornerstone, ate tower had two exits, east and west
The stone steps were precisely in theinto the lower level Seeing the situation was not too encouraging, Kou Zhong hurriedly inforate tohich he called protecting the stairs, but actually it was to save their own life
Ba Fenghan’s shout cae, “Xieli, keep your life for now!”
The tacit understanding between Kou Zhong and Ba Fenghan was second only to Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling; he understood Ba Fenghan’s strategy ih the west door of the city gate tower, and after entering the city tower, he turned around and brandished his saber toin fro attention to the eneate tower itself, the sound of sword blade splitting the air filled the athan soared close to the pillar of the highest watchtower The Beheading Mystery Sword turned into a long streak of light, it slashed down at full force on wearing-golden-robe Xieli’s bald head
On the other side, Xieli’s group of uards, everyone was shocked, how could they have the ? One after another they pulled their body up to block Ba Fenghan
Xieli was so angry that he nearly vomited blood This moment his mouthful of true qi has been used up, he has not recovered the true qi he lost frohan’s bri-life-to-win-life sword strike, although fully aware that as long as he illing to stake it all with a both-sides-suffer han a move for a han in order However, it was clear that he did not dare to take this big risk He stretched out his leg to tap on the coluht down, to fly outside the city wall
Seeing his tactic succeeded and he forced Xieli to run away, Ba Fenghan laughed aloud and said, “Great Khan is scared!”
Suddenly he sunk his qi so that he fell straight down to avoid all attacks and landed outside the city gate tower’s west door, before retreating back into the city gate tower The Beheading Mystery Sword flew left and right, two Golden Wolf troops met the sword, their blood splashed and they fell down
Leaping up the city gate tower again, Zhao Deyan launched his school’s unique skill, thethe Soul’, the ‘Green Dragon Jealous Lord’, his hands coiled around while changing constantly to attack Ba Fenghan
Letting out a cold laugh, Ba Fenghan did not care about the subtle changes of his claw technique at all, the Beheading Mystery Sword swiftly stabbed his face, showing clearly that he was ready to perish together with Zhao Deyan
Without any choice, Zhao Deyan changed his move; the chain of the Water Caltrop Spear shot out fro a cross hich he scra!’
Zhao Deyan recoiled froap he had just vacated, launching another round of attack toward Ba Fenghan
On the other side, Kou Zhong was driving the eneate tower outside the door His defense was as steady as copper wall, iron bastion, not a splash of water can coh However, he ell aware that just now the wear and tear to his true qi was extremely severe, very soon he would reach the sun-sets-over-the-western-hills situation, and then how long would he be able to stand?
