This old man was none other than Zhao Qingcang's teacher, the previous Marshal of the Great Xia Kingdom, Deng Qihe.
Forty years ago, the Battle of the East China Sea took place.
It was this man who severed all his heads, nailing the arrogant Yamata no Orochi to the pillar of sha.
How could he possibly forget the figure that once instilled in him the fear of death?
However, more than forty years have passed.
Judging by his age, Deng Qihe is at least over a hundred years old.
This is considered an unusually advanced age among professionals. Even SS-level experts, whose lifespans are longer than those of ordinary professionals, cannot escape the ravages of ti.
This must have surprised Qin Zeyi.
Facing the colossal beast that blotted out the sky, Deng Qihe's sword emitted a crisp ringing sound.
"If even a worm like you can co back to life, what's so strange about living a little longer?"
Hearing that familiar mocking tone, Qin Zeyilang was not angry.
on the contrary.
He smiled.
The seven snake heads simultaneously emitted a deafening roar of laughter.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
"Okay, okay!"
"Deng Qihe! I never thought I would see you again in my lifeti!"
Upon seeing the man who had killed him, Qin Ze showed no panic; instead, he beca even more excited. His massive body trembled with excitent, and the surrounding seawater was forced to sink under the terrifying aura emanating from him.
"If I hadn't been careless and been held back by those Russians, you wouldn't have had a chance to kill !"
The murderous intent in Qin Zeduo's eyes materialized.
"Today is perfect!"
"Let's settle both old and new scores and settle all the grudges from back then!"
He looked at Zhao Qingcang, then at Deng Qihe, the contempt in his eyes long gone, replaced by a kind of fanaticism for prey.
"You two, master and disciple, co at together!"
"Let see just how capable the two generations of marshals of the Great Xia Kingdom really are!"
Faced with this extrely arrogant provocation, Deng Qihe snorted coldly.
He took a step, and the void beneath his feet turned into solid ground, creating ripples.
"If I could kill you then, I can kill you today too!"
"It's just another snake head severing. My skills haven't beco rusty yet."
Before he finished speaking, a terrifying sword intent erupted from his aged body, soaring straight into the sky and splitting open the thick dark clouds above, revealing the bright moonlight.
Qin Zeduo's eyes blazed with fighting spirit, and his seven snake heads rose simultaneously, unleashing a roar that shook the heavens and earth.
"bring it on!"
"I'd like to see if your swordsmanship has improved at all in the past forty years!"
Inside the temporary command post at Changn Port.
Through the enormous remote monitoring array light screen, everyone's eyes were fixed on the churning sea.
When that aged yet sharp figure descended.
The entire command center was completely silent.
Everyone stared wide-eyed, mouths agape, utterly incredulous.
"That...that person..."
Am I hallucinating?
"That person...could it be...Marshal Deng?"
No sooner had he finished speaking than soone spoke up in rebuttal.
"How is that possible!"
"Don't joke around! Wasn't Marshal Deng already dead?"
"More than forty years! The bones should have turned to ashes by now! Could it be that the corpse could rise from the dead?"
"But...but that figure, that aura..."
A murmur arose, and all the generals looked at each other, their faces filled with surprise and confusion.
At this mont, an old general with gray hair and a face full of wrinkles stepped forward shakily.
He stared at the figure on the screen, tears welling up uncontrollably in his cloudy old eyes.
"It's him!"
"That's him!!"
The old general's voice was hoarse with excitent, but it was filled with determination.
"I used to be Marshal Deng's personal bodyguard! I will never forget the Marshal's voice, appearance, and smile!"
"I'd recognize him even if he were ashes! I would never mistake him!"
These words caused an uproar in the command center.
"What's going on?!"
"Why would soone who has been dead for over forty years suddenly appear on the battlefield?"
"What exactly is going on?"
Everyone was completely baffled, and their worldviews were shaken.
"Cough cough."
Amidst the murmurs and chaos, Qi Zhenyun, who had been silent all along, coughed lightly and stepped forward.
He looked around calmly, his voice clearly reaching everyone's ears.
"Everyone, please be quiet."
"The old general did not make a mistake."
Qi Zhenyun's gaze fell on the light screen, his eyes filled with a complex mix of emotions, including awe.
"That person was indeed the forr Marshal Deng Qihe."
"He did not die in battle back then, but through so special ans, he has lived to this day."
"This is also one of the last trump cards of our Great Xia Kingdom."
"At this point, we have no choice but to reveal this trump card."
As soon as the words were spoken, everyone's spirits lifted, and a ray of hope pierced through the gloom that had shrouded their hearts.
Marshal Deng!
That legend from forty years ago is still alive!
"That's great! That's great!"
The bearded lieutenant general was so excited that his face turned red. He slamd his fist on the table, tears glistening in his eyes.
"I knew it! Heaven won't forsake my Great Xia!"
"With the two marshals joining forces, that serpent, no matter how powerful, is dood!"
"That's right! Two SS-level experts! We've got this in the bag!"
The long-suppressed despair was ignited, transforming into soaring fighting spirit and hope.
...
On the sea surface.
Faced with Qin Zeduo's arrogant provocation, Zhao Qingcang wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and revealed a relieved smile.
"teacher."
He nodded slightly in Deng Qihe's direction.
Deng Qihe didn't turn around, but simply humd in response.
"Then let Qin Ze see just how powerful we, master and disciple, are when we join forces!"
"kill!"
At a single ~Nоvеl𝕚ght~ command, two figures, two marshals from different generations, moved simultaneously!
Zhao Qingcang moved with ghostly speed, and with each step he took, the surrounding space distorted.
Instead of attacking, he targeted Deng Qihe.
"Teacher, I'll clear the way for you!"
Buzz—!
Deng Qihe felt a gentle spatial force enveloping him.
The next second, the scenery before my eyes shifted dramatically.
When he reappeared, he had traveled thousands of ters and appeared directly above one of the heads of the Yamata no Orochi!
Such fast teleportation!
Such precise landing control!
Deng Qihe secretly praised him, but his hands did not stop moving.
While he was in mid-air, the standard longsword in his hand transford into a dazzling rainbow, slashing down at the mountain-like snake head below!
"One sword strike, splits the mountain!"
Sword light cascaded down like a waterfall!
Before the snake's head could react, it was cleaved in two by the sword light that contained the ultimate sword intent!
The foul-slling blood shot into the sky, creating a bloody rain.
"roar!"
The excruciating pain caused Qin Zeduo to roar in anger.
The remaining six snake heads simultaneously turned around, opened their blood-red mouths, and lunged at Deng Qi from all directions!
Six attacks blocked all escape routes!
However, Deng Qihe showed no sign of panic.
Because he knew he wasn't fighting alone.
Just as those six gaping maws were about to close.
"Certainly!"
Zhao Qingcang's voice rang out.
He loosely clenched his fist with one hand, then tightened his fingers.
The space around the six snake heads solidified and beca hard!
【Spatial Imprisonnt】!
The six enormous snake heads were frozen in mid-air, unable to move.
Although it lasted for less than a second.
But for a swordsman like Deng Qihe, that was enough.
"Good timing!"
Deng Qi let out a long roar, and his figure made a graceful turn in mid-air.
He twirled his longsword, creating a sword flower, and the sword light swept out horizontally.
"One sword, and the river is severed!"
Puff! Puff! Puff! Puff! Puff! Puff!
Six muffled thuds, all in unison.
The six snake heads, which had been trapped in mid-air, were severed at their necks, and the towering columns of blood stained the entire sky red.
One sword strike, slaying six heads!
The teamwork between the two SS-level powerhouses was displayed to the fullest.
One is responsible for controlling and creating opportunities.
One is responsible for output and termination.
With Zhao Qingcang's flexible and versatile spatial techniques, and Deng Qihe's simple and unadorned swordsmanship.
The two joined forces and suppressed the arrogant Yamata no Orochi.
On the sea, only the bare snake body remained, rolling and stirring up huge waves.
However.
Faced with this almost certain death situation.
A low, maniacal laugh emanated from within the snake's body.
"Hahaha...hahahaha!"
There was no panic or fear in Qin Zeduo's voice.
Instead, it was filled with excitent and fervor.
"really!"
"Just as I expected!"
"This is what makes a battle interesting!"
