Chapter 806 - First Battle (1/2)

Thud thud thud thud!

Horse hooves quickly drew near!

The five people in the party held their breaths and curled up behind the slope. They did not move and waited for the best time for an ambush. No one took the initiative to reveal themselves and attack, because they knew very clearly that when this small group of patrolling cavaliers noticed enemies, they will definitely not engage them in a fight, but will do everything they can to flee.

This place was not far away from the enemy’s main army. Once they exposed themselves and one of those cavaliers left, it will be impossible for them to continue with their scouting quest. The only thing they will face was being surrounded by enemies.

Happy did not mind this. Even if he had to face one hundred cavaliers, he was also confident that he can slaughter his way out of the encirclement. After all, Nine Yang Divine Skill provided an endless supply of qi, and he was not afraid of this sort of continuous war of attrition, but Young Yu Yan and the rest of the party will not be able to last.

“It’s the Han Chinese!”

“Run!”

At that moment, the five cavaliers charging toward them finally reached the slope. The light that was reflected from the weapons from Happy’s party instantly pierced their eyes. Their pupils dilated, and they cried out in surprise while they reigned in their horses. Then, they turned around in an attempt to flee.

Unfortunately for them, since they turned around while they were so close to Happy and his party, it was enough time to create a chance for Happy’s party to kill them.

Bloody Lake led the charge and shot out from behind the slope. Two ghastly sawtoothed sabers released a terrifying chill and bloody red light under the sun.

Saber glares were flung out. The cavalier who was the closest to them was a big and built man. He was dressed in a metallic scale armor. Before he had the chance to completely turn around, he already felt the saber glares charge at him.

But what they did not expect was that the cavalier will actually counterattack when he tugged at his horse and turned around.

The cavalier’s hand went to his waist, and a powerful, short, and small axe went charging at the sawtoothed sabers coming at him accurately.

Boom!

A piercing metallic whine rose in the air.

As expected of a man who was ranked on Demon Influence Rank. Bloody Lake was able to produce results with his attack straightaway. The Mongolian cavalier grunted, and the horse under him had its knees buckle before it fell down, a clear sign that it was unable to withstand the power that came from the clash of weapons between them.

A shrill neigh rose. The horse fell down. Even so, the Mongolian cavalier dexterously rolled on the ground along with the momentum before he charged into the distance without ever stopping. Bloody Lake’s attack did not actually create any obvious damage on him.

What Bloody Lake could not accept was that the full-powered strike he delivered while he had the initiative not only did not manage to create any damage on the Mongolian cavalier, his axe had actually caused such a great rebound that his qi and blood tumbled in his body. Bloody Lake took a few steps backward, and the distance between them instantly widened.

Everything might seem to have happened over a long period of time, but it was actually very quick.

While Bloody Lake fought against the Mongolian cavalier closest to him, the other four had already locked on to their own targets, and they had already exchanged one round of attacks.

The situation had already completely exceeded their expectations.

As the party leader, Xu Jun was naturally pretty good at fighting. He swung his longspear vigorously, and right from the start, he was able to bring down his target from his horse.

But at the moment the spear tip was about to stab the cavalier’s chest, the Mongolian cavalier managed to block his attack in time, and he used his armpit to clamp down on the spear tip.

Right after that attack, the Mongolian cavalier used the momentum to swing his axe down, and he nearly split apart Xu Jun’s head.

Xu Jun reacted quickly. He resolutely gave up on the spear and avoided the axe at a hair’s breadth. The axe grazed past his skin, and he rammed into the Mongolian cavalier so violently that he staggered.

When he saw the Mongolian cavalier flee madly with the tip of his toes tapping against the ground, Xu Jun’s expression changed drastically.

“Darn it, he’s so difficult to deal with! I’ll chase after him! Be careful, and don’t let them run!”

Once he finished speaking, he also chased after his own cavalier, just like Bloody Lake. Fortunately, these Mongolian cavaliers were not fast after they got down from their horses.
