Chapter 1178: Chapter 39: Worldly Matters Settled with a Single Sword
In the first year of Yuanxing, on January 1st.
Before the coronation ceremony in Lanling City had started, Li Fei had already walked out from Moyun City.
Outside the city, eighty thousand Northern Barbarian Army had already arranged themselves, seeming to anticipate Li Fei’s solitary charge into the formation today!
“Mighty!”
“Mighty!”
“Mighty!”
On the city walls, the soldiers shouted in unison.
Kiloters away, a series of radiances flickered within the military formation.
Under the enhancent of magic, the Northern Barbarian Warriors’ wild nature was aroused, breathing heavier, temperature rising, blood surging.
Born extraordinarily robust, battling fierce beasts since childhood in the perilous mountains and rivers, the Northern Barbarian tribes were almost entirely militarized, each person a born warrior!
If facing the Northern Border Army, even without magic enhancent, the Northern Barbarian Warriors would have the courage for a fierce fight.
However, the despair brought by top-tier warriors to ordinary soldiers was overwhelming!
Now, this man charging towards the army formation wielded an even stronger sense of oppression!
After two consecutive great battles, Li Fei’s infamous reputation had completely erged.
Thus, before the battle even began, the Northern Barbarians had to resort to magic to stabilize their military morale.
Li Fei began to accelerate, his golden robe like a dragon, scattering the snow of the sky.
At three hundred ters apart, countless arrows transford into a black screen falling down.
Yet all the arrows were left behind by Li Fei.
A glint of Sword Gang brightened before the formation, slicing fifty-seven front-row barbarians into halves!
The slaughter began—
Inside Moyun City.
Prince Cheng, Qin Shixian, He Yuxi, Xuan Chen, Zhou Xuanwo, Bai ng, and Han Mu, six top-tier powerful individuals gathered together!
Li Fei had already driven back two Northern Barbarian Armies, relieving the siege of two cities.
Therefore, it was highly likely that the Northern Barbarians would not let him succeed a third ti.
In this third great battle, Li Fei was highly likely to encounter an encirclent by top-tier warriors!
Previously, a cohort of Northern Barbarian warriors repeatedly attacked two cities for probing, precisely to prepare for this third great battle.
Therefore, today Li Fei left the city, breaking the army alone.
A cohort of top-tier warriors was keeping watch inside the city.
“Report—”
Suddenly, urgent military intelligence arrived.
“Speak.”
Qin Shixian spoke.
“Reporting to the Governor, Broken Prison City is under attack. Four Northern Barbarian top-tier warriors with seventeen Overlord warriors are attacking Broken Prison City!”
Upon hearing this military intelligence, the expressions of the powerful individuals present slightly changed.
After Forbidden Army Commander Han Mu led five thousand Imperial Camp troops to arrive, the Northern Border Defense Line had a total of over eight thousand Imperial Camp troops.
Apart from Moyun City, the remaining four cities each guarded by two thousand-man level Imperial Camp troops, allowing all top-tier warriors to focus together.
But the Imperial Camp troops were ultimately not top-level True Masters, using the military formation to activate the city defense array couldn’t reach the strongest effect.
Therefore, two thousand-man level Imperial Camp troops couldn’t ensure the preservation of a city.
Now, Broken Prison City was under a joint attack by four Northern Barbarian top-tier warriors and over ten Overlord warriors, barely able to withstand three or four hours before the city defense array would be breached.
And the battle on Li Fei’s side definitely wouldn’t be concluded soon.
At least one top-tier warrior had to be dispatched to aid, ensuring Broken Prison City wouldn’t fall.
Everyone looked towards Qin Shixian.
In Li Fei’s absence, this Prince Cheng held the highest authority.
Qin Shixian didn’t imdiately dispatch soone for aid:
“Investigate further and report back.”
“Understood!”
Monts later, the second urgent military intelligence ca:
“Baisong City is under attack! Four Northern Barbarian top-tier warriors with nineteen Overlord warriors are jointly attacking!”
This ti Northern Barbarian’s top-tier warriors, except for the Northern Barbarian King, had all surfaced.
Moyun City was positioned centrally on the Northern Border Defense Line, with Broken Prison City on the far left and Baisong City on the far right.
Northern Barbarians chose to split forces, attacking these two cities to maximize the deploynt of Great Lan Dynasty’s warriors.
With eight Northern Barbarian top-tier warriors and all Overlord warriors gone to siege the cities, how could Bo’erhu alone be confident to kill Li Fei?
This question actually needed no thought; everyone present could guess what the Northern Barbarians relied on.
“True Master He.”
Qin Shixian looked to a woman in a white robe, “Please head to Broken Prison City.”
Dispatching a True Master to control the city defense array was surely more prudent than sending a Great Grandmaster.
He Yuxi stepped out, saluting Qin Shixian: “I accept the order!”
“Tributor Zhou.”
Qin Shixian next looked to Zhou Xuanwo, “Would you kindly head to Baisong City.”
Among the Royal Tributors, Zhou Xuanwo’s cultivation surpassed Bai ng. Actually, sending Bai ng to assist Baisong City would be sufficient, yet Qin Shixian chose Zhou Xuanwo.
None of those present were surprised by this choice.
Zhou Xuanwo nodded: “Alright.”
He turned to look out the window, a mix of ease and regret appearing on his face.
Today, an unprecedentedly grand battle was bound to erupt here; not participating freed him from concerns over his safety.
Yet missing such a great battle inevitably left him with so regret.
After the two top-level True Masters departed, no new military intelligence arrived.
Everyone awaited the outco of the great battle outside the city.
…
The sounds of battle shook the heavens, blood flowed like rivers.
The Northern Barbarian Army’s formation was completely chaotic.
A Martial Artist covered in fur, with sharp claws and teeth, launched at Li Fei frantically.
Before he could approach, a gleam of Sword Gang flashed, dismbering him along with dozens of surrounding barbarians.
This was a Martial Artist who actively chose beastification, failing even at the mont of death to touch Li Fei, nor get within ten ters of him.
Not just him—in this battle, many Martial Artists actively chose beastification, then crazily charged at Li Fei!
They didn’t wish to harm Li Fei but rely hoped to exhaust even a shred of his strength.
This was so far the most tenacious, determined, and resolute North Barbarian Army Li Fei had encountered!
