Free Web NovelChapter 2167: Chapter 228: Gazing Toward Noble City
The dazzling brilliance across his body receded, revealing a young man like a jade tree standing gracefully in the wind.
Yan Po looked at the Qi Country genius stepping on clouds under the moon, momentarily holding his sword back without speaking.
He had to admit, being able to kill Zhou Xiong without paying too great a price, the young man before him had indeed accomplished a great feat.
Although this Hegemony Country genius was still in the Outer Building Realm, the God Arrives stage posed no obstacle, and Dongzhen was also within reach.
Even though he himself had achieved God Arrives, Dongzhen seemed a distant, almost unattainable goal.
He did not know what attitude he should adopt to speak.
The first to speak was Jiang Wang, who sincerely cupped his hands: "Congratulations, General Yan, for defeating a God Arrives of Summer Country, achieving another great success!"
Regarding Zhou Xiong’s death, he did not claim the credit.
Yan Po could certainly sense the goodwill involved, and after thinking for a moment, he asked with curiosity: "Even Zhou Xiong’s motives were hidden from me; how did you retreat so suddenly just then?"
"After fighting for so long, he suddenly posed as if he wanted to perish with you, so his target must have been me." Jiang Wang glanced at him. "General Yan, sometimes I may be a bit reckless, but I’m not stupid!"
Yan Po chuckled silently.
Meanwhile, Jiang Wang applied force to his feet, rushing swiftly towards Zhongxuan Sheng.
The battle over there with Zhongxuan Pang was still ongoing, thus he couldn’t chat leisurely with Yan Po.
His voice resounded like thunder, echoing across the fields: "Zhou Xiong is dead! Those who surrender shall be spared! Those unwilling to die, lay down your arms and raise your hands!"
His figure moved like blue lightning through the Long Night, a sword of frost and snow traversing the void!
Tens of thousands of sword silks whistled past above the Summer Army, like the Galaxy in tumultuous flow! The blade’s radiance outshone the moonlight, providing a strong annotation to his speech.
On hearing this, the morale of the Summer Army was seized.
The one-armed Wei Guangyao raised his blade, shouting: "Those who surrender today are eternal traitors of Da Xia!"
The Qi Army encircled him suddenly, and Zhongxuan Pang, like a hunter who had waited long, commanded his troops to easily cut open the Soldier Slayer of the Summer Army, while Jiang Wang also dashed as if electricity through the formation!
In the chaotic cloud of Soldier Slayer, the frost light swiftly converged and separated several times, and Wei Guangyao’s head, with furious eyes wide open, flew into the sky!
Their coordination was truly seamless, one leading troops and the other pressing with his sword, not even needing to exchange glances.
Yan Po, who was counting the spoils from Zhou Xiong’s body, also flew over at this moment, casually striking with a blade, massive blade light cutting through the sky and chopping down the mountain formed by the formation to the east — "Those who refuse to surrender are like this mountain!"
Within the basin surrounded by the Nine Sons Ring Mountain Formation, the Summer Army’s formation was already in chaos, suppressed by Zhongxuan Sheng so that the front line could not connect with the rear. Seeing this situation, morale plummeted further.
The Nine Sons Ring Mountain Formation, while locking and suppressing the Qi Army, also blocked their retreat.
And on the high mountains along the ring, a few flags had already changed allegiance.
"To be an eternal sinner of Summer Country, let it be so, gentlemen, what is there to fear?" Zhongxuan Sheng leapt into the air, his voice like a bell: "After this battle, there will be no more Summer Country. Those who surrender today are all Qi citizens!"
"Don’t believe him!" Xu Can shouted hoarsely: "In the Noon Sunshine battle, they slaughtered twenty thousand Qi troops, they won’t let us go! Brothers, we now have no choice but to—"
Boom Boom Boom!
Yan Po was already thoroughly impatient, charging alone into the army formation.
The formation he controlled, in the eyes of a seasoned veteran like Yan Po, was already riddled with flaws, let alone now being pressured by the Qi Army till collapsing.
The scattered Soldier Slayer could not even impede God Arrives. Yan Po almost drove straight through, killed him with one cut without any superfluous words!
Also shattering his speech.
Zhongxuan Sheng thundered: "The culprit of the Noon Sunshine battle has been executed; I, on behalf of the Qi Army, promise not to hold others responsible! The handsome man wielding a sword beside me is Jiang Wang, the Yellow River Leader, and I vouch for him with his reputation!"
Jiang Wang very much wanted to kick him, but still cooperated by posing in a dignified and dependable manner.
The battlefield scenario underwent dramatic changes, Zhou Xiong’s death causing an avalanche. freēwebnovel.com
Among the Summer Army generals, in an instant only Gu Yong remained.
He grit his teeth —
Rumble!
A sudden roar around him.
It was the Victory Camp that had already broken through the Nine Sons Ring Mountain Array Plate, and the high mountains erected around were collapsing one by one.
Gu Yong’s last courage crumbled along with it.
"I surrender!" He discarded his army knife, raised his hands, and knelt down.
On the vast battlefield, the Summer Army kneeled in large swaths, like wheat waves whipped by the wind.
Xue Rushi glanced at him somewhat regretfully, then sheathed his sword, quietly awaiting Zhongxuan Sheng’s order.
Seeing the major affairs here settled, Yan Po directly swept across the sky, leaving only a sentence: "I’ll go check on She Mountain!"
His figure flashed and disappeared into the distance.
The Qi Army at She Mountain would be in a dangerous situation if compared to the Summer Army’s ambush of the Min Xi Corridor.
Xie Baoshu on that side did not possess an almost invincible presence like Jiang Wang beneath God Arrives. In terms of military capability, he couldn’t compare with Zhongxuan Sheng either.
Yan Po hurried over for one, to rescue Xie Baoshu, doing a favor for the East Line Commander Xie Huaian, and secondly, to gain new merit.
Zhongxuan Sheng entirely understood Yan Po’s urgency, but remained frowning, seemingly pondering some challenging problem.
The night wind whispered, and Qingzhuan and others had already skillfully begun organizing the prisoners.
Tending to the wounded, cleaning up the battlefield... everything was in order.
From Shisi’s perspective, the currently hovering Zhongxuan Sheng in the air, appearing in thought, emitted the charm of wisdom.
Jiang Wang floated not far away, bathing in starlight, as if sensing something with the distant Star Vault.
In short, neither spoke.
Jiang Wang’s figure was quite balanced, but in comparison with Zhongxuan Sheng, he appeared slightly slender...
