Free Web NovelChapter 1168: Chapter 660: Food Shortage
Zhong Yi, with just one spear, left Yang Qiangjin and Yang Min struggling to breathe.
As he thrust his spear forward, it was as if a mythical beast had descended, and the force sent Yang Min and Yang Qiangjin flying.
The two fought while retreating, completely overwhelmed in momentum.
"Flame Shuttle!"
Yang Qiangjin utilized the lingering flames on the ground, diving directly into them... with just a maneuver of magic, she could appear next to Zhong Yi in the next second.
However, Zhong Yi seemed to have anticipated this, sweeping his spear across.
"Thousands of Soldiers!"
A fierce wind swept through!
An army appeared out of nowhere, charging towards the two, extinguishing all the flames along the way!
"Kill!!!"
The army roared, forcing Yang Qiangjin out of the flames!
Before she could steady herself, hoofbeats were already overhead.
"Demonization!"
Yang Min stopped holding back, as Earth Spiritual Power and Water Spiritual Power began converging within his body, catalyzed by the demonic clan bloodline into a terrifying annihilation. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
Furious spiritual power erupted from Yang Min!
The entire person transformed into an Earth Giant, swinging a punch forward.
Bam!
The Giant’s Fist met the army’s charge.
Boom!!!
The shockwave exploded, flinging the surrounding cages away!
Both Yang Qiangjin and Yang Min were sent flying simultaneously, the armor of the Earth Giant cracking piece by piece.
The thousands of soldiers vanished, leaving just Zhong Yi standing with his spear, having not retreated a single step.
"Such a strong body!"
This strike not only interrupted Yang Qiangjin’s space magic but also sent the demonized Yang Min flying with brute force.
In this state, Yang Min’s combat power had skyrocketed!
The Earth Giant was actually his Heaven and Earth Dharma Illusion, a manifestation that communicates part of the Power of Laws, yet it was shattered by a single spear strike.
"Zhong Yi’s strength... terrifying!"
Yang Genshuo could see this clearly, and naturally, Yang Min and Yang Qiangjin on the battlefield were very aware as well.
Yang Qiangjin looked uneasy: "This is bad... my space techniques are not as fast as his, escaping won’t be easy."
Yang Min got up with a flick of his clothes.
"Aunt, this person’s strength... surpasses both of us, he’s probably..."
At this moment, Yang Genshuo also saw Zhong Yi’s character card changing.
[Realm: ???]→
[Realm: Phenomenon Realm]
After he attacked, his strength became apparent.
"What realm is the Phenomenon Realm?"
This left Yang Genshuo confused.
Upon hearing their ancestor’s voice, Yang Min quickly realized.
"Ah, so it’s a martial artist of the Phenomenon Realm... No wonder a single move manifests a phenomenon, even a simple spear can become thousands of soldiers, only a Nascent Soul Cultivator with a complete Dharma Form can resist."
The erudite academy cultivator Yang Min clearly knew more than their ancestor.
"Is it the martial artist realm above the Nirvana Realm..."
But at this moment, the two didn’t delve deeper.
Zhong Yi was slowly advancing, his eyes filled with dangerous intent.
It was the killing intent of a high-ranking general.
"Spies of the army... must die!"
The surrounding fat soldiers no longer shouted hunger, but instead cheered and shouted, urging on their general.
"Kill!"
"Kill!!"
"Kill!!!"
This fervent wave swept through the dark tent, adding an aura of death.
Yang Qiangjin and Yang Zhu were already in extreme danger!
At this moment, Yang Genshuo hurriedly conveyed the information obtained from Yang Zhu to Yang Qiangjin and Yang Min.
"Lord Zhong, there might be some misunderstanding between us!"
"We were just here to see what’s going on, but we are certainly not spies for the Flowing Corpses..."
"We admire your deeds!"
"Didn’t we fight against the Flowing Corpses together? Have you forgotten?"
"Why don’t we stop and have a proper talk?"
Yang Min spoke, but Zhong Yi remained unmoved, stepping forward with an imposing momentum like a tidal wave.
It was clear that if he truly went all out, the fate of the two today would be uncertain.
Suddenly, Yang Genshuo had a stroke of brilliance!
"Lord Zhong, we are willing to offer a supply of grain to your army!"
In an instant, Zhong Yi’s footsteps halted, and the surrounding fat soldiers stopped cheering...
Drip, drip~
The fat soldiers’ saliva dribbled down the cage.
Zhong Yi slowly put away his spear, his expression still stern.
"How much?"
"How much was in the first batch of grain you collected?"
"Fifty thousand pounds."
"Then we’ll give you another fifty thousand pounds."
Upon hearing this number, Zhong Yi’s spear had already disappeared, and with a righteous expression, he said:
"Let it not happen again."
Then he took Yang Qiangjin and Yang Min away from the military camp.
The fat soldiers behind them resumed their wailing.
It was unclear if it was because they didn’t see rivers of blood or because their bodies were in pain, squeezing out two habitual cries.
Originally quite eerie, the sound was less frightening once the soldiers’ origins were understood.
At this point, Yang Min cautiously inquired: "General Zhong, these soldiers are..."
"Hmm?"
Zhong Yi’s face tightened, giving a warning look.
Any further words might lead to a repeat of the previous scene.
Seeing this, Yang Qiangjin directly took out a cart of grain from their Storage Ring.
Zhong Yi snorted coldly and turned away.
"They ended up like this... all because of the dog court."
"The court is foolish! Collecting grain without paying soldiers, who knows where this grain ends up in Beijing."
"Leaving us border soldiers to starve to death in the city... truly deserving of death!"
Zhong Yi cursed the court fiercely, and Yang Min concurred: "The court truly deserves to die!"
Hearing the agreement, Zhong Yi grew even more impassioned.
"Everyone knows the court is foolish, the Emperor is incompetent, leading to uprising refugees, Flowing Corpses rebellion, and the common folk everywhere suffering..."
