Chapter 1016 - Alive and Well (1/2)

After joining Huangting army, Lou Zhengshi's expression was awfully gloomy. After explaining what happened, he said, "King Yi is really a formidable opponent, he managed to force me off with his unexpected and irregular attack patterns. Mu Xiantian had made the right decision to make him a commander," With King Yi around, the Heaven Suppression Fortress is a tough nut to crack."

Ten days, five defeats and five raids, not only did they fail to set up their camps, they had also lost almost every resource they had and suffered casualties, which was considered a great humiliation to someone as renowned as him!

Ting Daoji smiled, "Senior Martial Brother Lou, let him have all the intelligence he wants and there will be nothing he can do before the absolute power of our joined forces! Besides, I have brought along our Huangting Clan's monarch weapon!"

Lou Zhengshi nodded, "True, with the bell here, we wouldn't suffer many losses even if we are defeated."

Hearing this negative statement, Ting Daoji frowned, "Why the sad face?"

"The Yu Lin Army was routed entirely, Senior Martial Brother Sui Qinghong had recruited a few million more soldiers but they are all amateurs."

Lou Zhengshi sighed, "He himself, on the other hand, was still treating his injuries, which almost took his life. Senior Martial Brother Pan Ji also sent words that his navy had been defeated after being snuck up on by King Yi. A few days later, we will be welcoming more enemies from the Shield Wall Fortress and Heaven Riding Fortress. This will be a very tough fight."

Ting Daoji had a scare and he shouted, "Them too?"

Lou Zhengshi nodded, "He had returned to the Imperial Star and is preparing to bring out the Panhu Clan's monarch weapon but that would take him half a year or so. As long as we can hold ourselves for half a year ..."

"Senior Martial Brother Lou, I think you are afraid of King Yi now! What you say right now will hurt our morale."

Ting Daoji smiled, "My son, Fengcen had cultivated the Three Eyes Heavenly Pupils and by tomorrow, after baiting King Yi out, we will hand the responsibility to my son to kill him! Without King Yi, the Heaven Suppression Fortress will lose its backbone!"

Lou Zhengshi sighed, "I certainly hope so, but right now, I'm not even sure that Fengcen could kill him now."

Full of confident and proudness, Ting Fengcen smiled, "Senior Martial Uncle Lou, leave everything to me!"

A hopeful Lou Zhengshi replied with a laugh, "Then I will be awaiting for the wonderful show you are going to present to us tomorrow! If you kill King Yi, you will be the one contributing the most and you will be rewarded richly!"

The happy Ting Fengcen shouted right away, "Be prepared then!"

Ting Daoji added, "Then we will set up the camps tonight. Tomorrow, we will have a True Deity challenge King Yi to a duel, even if he does not accept the challenge, my son will be able to kill him if he shows up!"

Lou Zhengshi nodded and the army immediately rushed towards the fortress and set up the camps quickly. Throughout the night, Lou Zhengshi stayed up with a worried heart, fearing Zhong Yue would raid them at night again, but that did not happen.

On the second day, Lou Zhengshi picked out the most outstanding True Deity from his army and said, "Ziyu, go and challenge King Yi. Worry not, even if you are defeated, you will still be rewarded."

That True Deity Ziyu immediately mounted his water dragon beast and charged towards the fortress with his spear in his hands.

As the beast arrived before the fortress, Ziyu raised his head and shouted, "Listen up!"

An arrow flew out from the top of the walls, pierced through his head, his body fell off from the water dragon beast and a soul flew right back into the Heavenly River Navy Fleet's Heavens.

The beast shivered right away and cowarded around, quickly fleeing back into the camps.

Angered and surprised, Lou Zhengshi shouted, "Darn King Yi! Without even saying a word, he killed my favourite general! What now!"

Ting Daoji said, "How about we send another True Deity?"

With a nod, Lou Zhengshi proposed, "That was one of my most favourite general. Brother Daoji, could you send someone capable enough for this job from your army?"

Ting Daoji hesitated but he quickly said to an elder, "Daofeng, your daughter Fengxi is also a True Deity. On top of that, she is a lady and King Yi won't kill her without saying a word I assume. Besides, as a lady, if King Yi does not accept her challenge, it would make him a coward."

Ting Daofeng nodded, he then sent his daughter out and added, "When you go out, explain your purpose before getting close to the fortress, I fear that they will attack without a word again."

With a nod, Ting Fengxi got up her mount, which was a massive hydra and she stood at the middle head of the nine headed hydra.

The hydra slithered towards the fortress and the beautiful and snowy white skin Ting Fengxi said loudly, "King Yi, I've always heard of how powerful you are and that you are the number one in the Board of the Future Monarch. As a True Deity, I wish to challenge you, do you accept?

The hydra continued moving forward under the control of its master and Ting Fengxi shouted again, "King Yi, are you afraid of a lady?"

Arrows rained down from the walls and without able to say another word, Ting Fengxi was killed right away, arrows nailed onto her yet the hydra remain unscathed.

On the wall, a divine general reached his head out and shouted, "Our lord's wives said no lady is to try to hook up with our lord! Any lady who dares to hook up with our master will be shot dead! Go, bring a man here if you want a challenge!"

Ting Daoji, Ting Daofeng and Lou Zhengshi all became infuriated right away.
