“Release the arrows!”
A loud bellow rang out on top of the city wall. A myriad of arrows rained down in an instant, each of them containing essential Qi and capable of piercing through metal and rocks.
However, as the arrows rained down, the 2,000 members of Prince Xin’s army let out a loud bellow and a Qi field exploded, circling around the army. Unexpectedly,the rain of arrows was deflected.
These 2,000 soldiers were all peak Xiantian Realm experts, while the bearded man in the lead was a Disha Realm expert. Right now, their essential Qis had joined as one, putting up an explosive Qi field. It was as if they had formed a long lance that pressed on with an indomitable will, piercing through layers of arrow rain as it headed for the city gate.
Seeing that the arrow rain was ineffective, countless warriors immediately sought approval to head out to battle, but they were stopped by He Wanzhou.
“This person’s martial arts are deep and unfathomable. If you guys head down, you’ll be facing a death threat. Let me do it.” He Wanzhou naturally would not send the generals under him to their deaths, only making a move after the opponents had fought their way right up to him.
On the contrary, he planned on making a move outright and use his martial arts to take down the opponents, forestalling them with a show of strength. He wanted to make use of this to raise the morale of the soldiers in the city.
He Wanzhou took a step forward and stood on top of the city wall. Essential Qi seethed on him, and it seemed as if all of the world within a range of several thousand meters was shaken up.
At the next moment, He Wanzhou struck out a punch across space. Seething essential Qis gathered on his fist. The essential Qis rubbed against each other intensely, emitting dark green sparks. Then the surrounding void space became distorted like it was going to burn up in flames.
“Traitor, take my Jade Blood Divine Fist!”
He punched out consecutively, and lumps of dark green Qi went exploding toward the soldiers outside the city walls. Each time the essential Qis clashed with the Qi field, a series of explosions would occur, almost causing the earth to crack from the tremor. The 2,000 soldiers who had charged forth were thrown off the horses. Within a few short minutes, there were already soldiers dying from the tremor.
That vanguard general with stubble on his face let out an enraged bellow. He made several attempts to leap up, wanting to climb the city wall. However, he was smashed back by He Wanzhou with his Jade Blood Divine Fist time and time again.
Although he had the reinforcement of the essential Qis from 2,000 elites, he was still not a match He Wanzhou, who was a grandmaster in the Confucian Sect.
Seeing that they held the upper hand, the soldiers on the city wall immediately broke out in cheers.
He Wanzhou let out a soft bellow, and streams of white Qis appeared above his head. The green flames on his two fists seethed intensely. He had clearly circulated his martial arts to an extreme, wanting to press on to kill that man with stubble.
However, just then a sword’s clanking sound rang out, and a stream of sword light seemed to soar up into the sky from the formation of army outside the city.
At the next moment, a wave of sword Qi tore through void space. It slashed out from the army formation and hacked fiercely toward He Wanzhou, who was on top of the city wall.
The sword Qi had yet to arrive when a sharp glow came gushing forth as if wanting to tear through everything before its eyes.
With a low bellow, He Wanzhou circulated his fist force to an extreme. His two fists punched out concurrently, turning into dark green fireballs which headed out toward the sword Qi that was flying over.
A loud rumble rang out! The sword Qi and fireball collided together, and violent shock waves shot out in all directions. There were even waves that could be seen by the naked eye radiating out in all directions.
Shockwaves smashed into the city walls, clashing into the Imperial Guards’ Qi field.
Although the Qi field was shielding them, several tens of Imperial Guards released a series of astonishing cries. They were swept out by the shockwaves and fell down.
Even the city walls, which were heavily tempered and integrated with countless metal materials, kept on shaking. The shockwaves smashed into the wall, forming many huge cracks.
He Wanzhou let out a stifled snort, and the dark green flames on his two fists suddenly weakened by a lot. His gaze was filled with solemness as he looked in the direction of the army formation.
In an instant, a round of cheers broke out within Prince Xin’s army.
“The general is almighty!”
“The general is almighty!”
Looking at that handsome young man—dressed in a purple-gold headgear and ocher-colored robe, appearing extremely dignified—who stood out from the rest, He Wanzhou’s brows furrowed even more than before.
