154 Resounding Defea (1/2)
”Prefecture Master!”
With the interference from General Fei Long, Wu Wudao and Xuan Sheng recovered. They looked at Fang Yuan with intense hatred.
”That's right!”
Fang Yuan smiled. He did not hold them in regard.
The Elemental Force Realm experts were nothing to him.
The situation remained unchanged even though Fang Yuan previously had the protection of the troops. He did not fear these spiritual knights.
He was the king amongst the spiritual flowers and grass!
As for the few aristocrats of Wu Country in front of him? There 100,000 troops were scattered and their strength was unable to be mustered.
The offensive and the defensive were reversed!
...
A gust of foul-smelling wind.
Not far away, the Sickle Grass and Serrated Flowers were dancing. Like a reaper, they claimed the lives of many soldiers.
Wu Wudao, Xuan Sheng and Fei Long felt like vomiting blood after they witnessed this scene.
How can they rely on so few people to conquer Secluded Mountains Prefecture?
Their army had been destroyed and any plan that they had, had turned into a joke.
The mastermind behind all this was the youth that was laughing in front of them. They did not realise that the reason for all his previous preparations was all for that one moment of attack!
”Good!”
General Fei Long praised, ”I have never lost a single battle. To think that my streak would end in your hands...”
”How? Unless you wish to continue?”
Fang Yuan said loftily with no sign of fear.
Wu Wudao was momentarily indecisive.
He still had General Fei Long and Taoist Elder Xuan Sheng at his side. In terms of strength, they outmatched their opponent. However, things were not as simple.
After all, the Prefecture Master was impossible to predict which caused him to worry excessively.
His condition was being suppressed by the Mystical Ice Pill but there was no guarantee that his conditions would not worsen during the battle.
On the opponent's side, Niu Dingtian was the weakest. However, he was trained in rough technique which was enough to harass an opponent. That spiritual beast's aura was also comparable to a martial artist at the peak of the 12 Gates and it had the ability to fly. If it also possessed a few more talents, it would have become a force to be reckoned with... In addition, there was also the unpredictable Fang Yuan...
Given the situation, defeating the opponent was not something that could be achieved in a short amount of time.
Furthermore, they would not be able to stop their opponents from escaping!
Looking at how the situation was developing, he definitely did not have so much time!
If they were unable to swiftly bring down their opponent, they would soon be surrounded by the Secluded Mountain Prefecture Armed Forces and the spiritual flowers and grass!
If that was the case, it would be their side that perished.
General Fei Long was helpless and did not have a plan to turn the tables around.
”Zhi'Er!”
Wu Wudao arrived at the side of the spiritual disciple who was vomiting blood in a flash. He fed the disciple a spiritual pill and looked at Fang Yuan with hatred.
It was not wise to deal with an enemy without knowing the enemy's ability.
He shouldn't let emotions cloud his thinking even though one of his beloved disciples had sacrificed his life for the country and the other beloved disciple was heavily wounded.
Wu Wudao looked bitterly at the Red-Eyed White King Bird and asked coldly, ”Prefecture Master, what are your desires?”
”You entered my territories, killed my people and still ask me what my desires are?”
Fang Yuan was bemused as if he heard a joke.
”It is natural that the strong feed on the weak. Given the situation in Xia Country, if Wu Country did not act, there would still be Yuan, Zhu Country...even you, are you really just a subject of the Xia Country?”
Taoist Elder Xuan Sheng shook his head.
”Hmm...never mind!”
Fang Yuan glanced back at Cangshan City which was beginning to quieten down, ”I want all of you to leave the Secluded Mountain Prefecture and swear a blood oath that you would not invade us within the century!”
”A century!?”
General Fei Long furrowed his brows.
He might have agreed readily if it was just a few decades. After all, the army of Wu Country had suffered great loss and needed time to recover.
But a hundred years? That was a bit too long.
”What if we do not agree? Unless you think you can threaten us with your troops?”
Wu Wudao coldly asked.
While they were interested in helping Wu Country preserve its strength. It was not feasible if it was a matter of life and death.
”Of course not!”
Fang Yuan's expression grew cold, ”I will only guarantee that none of you will leave the prefecture alive!”
”Haha...”
Wu Wudao laughed. ”Do you think you can kill us?”
”I am confident of delaying you till the army arrive and surround you!”
Fang Yuan dusted his shoulders, ”If my plans fail, at least I would be able to escape with my spiritual beast! What about you all? Care to try?”
Upon hearing this, Wu Wudao's breaths slowed and he shriveled.
The opponent possessed a flying spiritual beast and was shameless to the extent of escaping if he could not beat them.
What the opponent said was true! If he felt that something was amiss, he could turn tail and run.
Furthermore, he was young and had countless of opportunities for revenge.
