C103 (1/2)
Lang Yong's words seemed to resonate with everyone, and in an instant, the entire banquet was filled with whispers.
”That's right. I heard that General Xiang is a peerless demoness of the Great Qin Empire, but he must be a demon. The battle in Shu requires powerful cultivators. I wonder how strong this general is!”
”I've also heard that in the last year's Sword Arts Gathering, this general was able to reach the Body Fusion realm. However, the Western Garrison is very far from Qin City. I wonder if the rumors are true or not!”
Hearing the voice of the left river, not only did he not show any fear, he instead asked Xiang Han, ”There are soldiers in the wilderness, and they are not afraid of death. Why fight?”
Zuo He pretended to have a headache again as he apologised to Xiang Han, ”General Xiang, Zuo He failed to discipline me properly and made me a laughingstock. After the wine is drunk, I will definitely punish this impetuous courage with martial law. General Xiang, please don't take it to heart!”
The gazes of all the generals rested on Xiang Han.
Anyone could tell that Zuo He was very much in favor of this match, for no other reason than that he was a cavalry general of the Western Eagle Army and one of the best of the best. His status was only second to the general of the Zuo He, so naturally he had extraordinary powers.
The army of hundreds of thousands had already arrived at Fire Serpent River, but Cloud Sea and Hidden Dragon had arrived early on in Fire Serpent River. However, Xiang Han's loyal army was different. Since Xiang Han had yet to arrive and had no leader in the army, he naturally did not respect the command of the Western Garrison. He had caused many troubles for the Western Garrison.
Xiang Han's loyal army had only been listening to Xiang Han's orders all along. Amongst them, there were four guards generals who were Xiang Han's old friends in the original vanguard army: Qi Ze, Qi Yang, Lang Yue, Yu Hu, and Yu Long. These four people had been promoted to the rank of general by the General of the Wildland when the Zhong Wu Army was first established. Before this, these four people only had the rank of general left and right.
With General Wei, it was naturally impossible for him to not have left and right generals. These generals had followed Xiang Han's men since the early years, such as Mountain, Bai Fengxing, Long Family's Blue Linglong, and so on.
As for the original formation master, Tongtian, he hadn't left yet.
Xiang Han had not been in the army for a long time, and the Zhongwu Army had caused many troubles. The entire Western Eagle Army had great dissatisfaction and anger, and this type of impetuousness was typical.
Xiang Han stopped his wine, his gaze looking straight at Lang Yong without any hesitation: ”General Zuo He is too serious, I think General Lang Yong is a straightforward man, if you have something to say, go ahead and fight as you please, it suits your taste, in my opinion, drinking alone is better than drinking together, drinking alone is not like drinking together with swords and spears! It's better to choose the day than the day, and at that time, why not let me see the might of the Western Eagle Army! ”
The entire arena immediately fell silent.
Although Xiang Han was a Conferred General, he was ultimately only recognized by the Duke of Qin. He was not that strong among the other car-riding generals. Now that the Western Hawk army had challenged them, they naturally had a ninety-nine percent chance of winning.
Under such circumstances, Xiang Han was not afraid of being invited at all, which was rather surprising.
Zuo He saw that Xiang Han also had the will to fight so he couldn't help but laugh, ”That's fine, we're brave soldiers, we've long heard that General Xiang is resourceful and has long reached the Sword World realm. Today we can see his brilliance, and can be considered as a subordinate who has been taught by me!”
”General Xiang is also a straightforward person. However, our battle against him is rather boring. Why don't we add a bit more to the bet?”
Xiang Han asked, ”I wonder what kind of wager the general would like to add?”
With a flip of his hand, Lang Yong took out two green dragon swords. These two swords were entirely shining with a green light and had coiling dragons revolving around them. The dragon head's eyes glowed with a red light, as if it were alive.
Xiang Han's eyes lit up, ”Good sword!”
Lang Yong's expression did not change as he said: ”These two swords are called 'Mysterious Green Dual Dragon Slash', but it's a pity that turbid air uses a spear. General Xiang is an expert of the way of the sword, if you can win against the spear in my hands, then I'll offer this sword to you with both hands!”
A second-grade treasure; even if the Qin Nation's cavalry general were to take it out, it would be a very painful thing to take it out, much less the fact that this Lang Yong had taken out two longswords of Yin and Yang. In terms of value, it was far more important than a third-grade treasure.
Xiang Han observed the sword, and rejoiced at the sword.
Now, he paid a lot more attention to this battle. With a flip of his hand, he also took out a set of Golden Locust Flying Needles.
”I, Xiang, shall take this item and fight against General Yun's Azure Dragon Sword!”
When Xiang Han took this out, Great General Zuo He naturally saw the extraordinary characteristics of the Golden Locust Flying Needle, ”This set of flying needles is extremely valuable! General Xiang, please reconsider! ”
On the other hand, Xiang Han waved his hand to stop General Zuo He's words, saying, ”It's fine, if General Tu Yong is able to win against me, then I'll also offer this item to you with both hands!”
At this point, the two sides were at each other's throats.
After pausing for a while, Lang Yong grinned, ”General Xiang, this is the place. How about a battle in the sky between the two of us?”
Xiang Han did not answer, smiling as he stomped on the ground, his entire body flashing towards the sky, in the blink of an eye he was already hundreds of miles away.
Yu Yong's eyes lit up, and he exchanged a glance with Zuo He. Zuo He nodded slightly, and then produced a long spear out of thin air, pointing it towards Xiang Han. The spear immediately turned into a golden dragon and pierced towards Xiang Han who was hundreds of miles away.
Xiang Han stood erect, not a single inch of metal in his hand.
Seeing the golden dragon coming at him, Xiang Han flexed his body as a golden light flashed. He was dressed in purple lightning and had grown to a height of nine zhang.
There was also a wave of blood energy. The nine zhang long body turned into a scarlet color again, standing high in the air like a demon god of war.
Nine-meter tyrant body, nine-day thunderbone, exuberant blood energy.
General Zuo He's eyes widened when he saw this scene.
”Humph, just this alone is only the threshold of the tribulation stage. How is General Xiang supposed to fight!?” His battle intent shot out in all directions, his golden mouth opened wide in a bid to swallow Xiang Han.
With a thought, the index finger of Xiang Han's right hand transformed into a white light sword, the tip pointing forward.
”There's no point in speaking any further!”
”Sword World!” ”Stubborn!”
The first strike was a blow from the Sword World. This strike represented Xiang Han's highest level of profoundness, the most profound strike that he had comprehended of the way of the sword.
The first stance of the [Starseizing Hand] was even more powerful.
In an instant, in the blink of an eye, the sword tip had pointed at the golden forehead with its unstoppable force.
Instantly, silence filled the air, and then the bright moon vanished, the clouds dissipated.
A loud and clear sound shook the entire world.
The entire Residence of General Zuo He was in an uproar.
The blow was evenly matched.
The two of them looked at each other in midair, their fighting intent rising bit by bit.
”Powerful!” It's just as the Duke of Qin said, this General Zhong Wu is indeed a demon! ” Zuo He sighed deeply in his heart.
