Ice walls were built on the Black Tortoise Fury River, and earth bridges spanned both sides of the Black Tortoise Fury River.
Night fell, and half a bright moon hung high above the black curtain. The few dim stars in the black curtain seemed to feel sorrow for the calamity that had befallen the northern region.
The cool autumn wind blew through the trees, making a rustling sound.
Countless horse and human footprints could be vaguely seen on the surface of the ice.
Four hours ago, the Northern Region's army had used two hours to create a path that could cross the Black Tortoise Fury River.
Now, the Northern Region's army had entered the eastern mountain range.
At this moment, the Assassination Society's three million strong army had reached the Black Tortoise Fury River.
"Stop!" The one leading the Assassination Society's three million strong army was the last survivor of the three deacons — Zhang Xueyu.
When the Assassination Society's army reached the Black Tortoise Fury River, Zhang Xueyu raised her hand and signaled for the army to stop.
"Lord Zhang, I'm afraid it's a trap." Assassin No. 1 warned in a low voice.
The Northern Region's army had crossed the Black Tortoise Fury River, but the ice walls and bridges were not destroyed. It was as if they had purposely left a convenient path for them, as if they were not afraid of the Assassination Society's pursuit.
But the past five days proved that the Northern Region did not dare to start a war with them.
And the president and vice president were leading the rest of the assassins from behind, walking over slowly without a trace of urgency.
Faced with Assassin No. 1's kind reminder, Zhang Xueyu tilted her head and glanced at him. She sneered. "Are you questioning me?"
"I dare not!" Assassin No. 1 hurriedly cupped his hands in apology. He knew that Zhang Xueyu had lost to Xiao Yin several times in the past few days.
And the golden giant had died in Xiao Yin's hands. Zhang Xueyu was naturally furious. It was best not to provoke her now.
"So what if we set up an ambush for a small Northern Region?
We have three million troops. If they dare to stay, it won't be as simple as a hundred thousand people! "
Zhang Xueyu was very much like a qualified leader, knowing when to encourage her soldiers.
Her words caused the entire Assassination Society's army to raise their arms and cheer, their morale soaring.
Assassin No. 1 lowered his hands and stood at the side, not making a sound.
The one hundred thousand people Zhang Xueyu spoke of were the one hundred thousand soldiers of the four sects who had died in the central mountain range.
Of course, she had forgotten one thing. The one hundred thousand soldiers of the four sects were outnumbered. One hundred thousand lives were exchanged for three hundred thousand lives from the Assassination Society.
No matter how one looked at it, the Northern Region had gained a huge advantage in this transaction.
Assassin Number One had his suspicions. The Northern Region had always been cautious and careful, so why would they leave such a convenient path for them? There had to be a trap.
For the sake of the bigger picture, Number One braced himself and told Zhang Xueyu his thoughts.
After Zhang Xueyu heard the No. 1 assassin's thoughts, she snorted coldly. Then, she patted her horse and landed on the ice.
Everyone's gaze fell on her, not knowing what Zhang Xueyu wanted to do at this moment.
Zhang Xueyu stretched out a finger, and immortal qi gathered at the tip of her finger.
When the Immortal Qi was condensed to the extreme, Zhang Xueyu suddenly pointed at the ice surface.
Swish!
A ray of immortal energy whistled through the air, forming a fleeting yellow light that instantly pierced a small hole in the surface of the ice.
"It's nine meters deep. It's easy to build ice, but difficult to destroy it."
"The little dogs of the Northern Region are exhausted from running for their lives. How would they have the time to destroy this path?"
Zhang Xueyu looked at Assassin Number One and said coldly.
The Assassination Society's soldiers all whispered to each other. Indeed, it would take a lot of time to destroy a nine meters deep layer of ice.
Zhang Xueyu's casual pointing gave the Assassination Society's soldiers a reassurance pill.
"Zhang …" Assassin Number One revealed a worried expression. The Northern Region's army only had over a million people. Even if they wanted to pass quickly, there was no need to build a nine meters deep layer of ice.
"I've made up my mind. There's no need to say anything more." Zhang Xueyu glared at Assassin Number One. Then, she began to give orders for the army to pass through the Black Tortoise Fury River and continue to pursue the Northern Region's army.
Now that the President and Ye Shenghui were not here, Zhang Xueyu naturally became the one with the highest authority.
After she gave the order, the three million Assassination Society's army set off towards the ice surface in a mighty manner.
The ice surface built by the Northern Region's army was very sturdy. When the two hundred thousand troops stepped on it, there were only slight cracks on the ice surface, but it did not shake at all.
"Those who achieve great things must not bend to trifles. You should learn well," Zhang Xueyu said softly as she walked side by side with Assassin Number One.
Now that the Golden Giant and Yan Hongfeng were dead, after this battle, they would definitely choose two new wardens from the assassins.
If there were no accidents, Number One and Number Two would naturally become the candidates for the wardens.
"Zhang …" Assassin Number One kept feeling an inexplicable sense of danger. Just as he was about to warn her, he suddenly heard a dull explosion.
Boom!
A dull explosion sounded out of nowhere. Everyone stopped in their tracks and looked around vigilantly, trying to find the source of the explosion.
Right at this moment, muffled explosions rang out one after another.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
At the same time as the explosion, the entire ice surface and the sturdy earth bridge shook violently.
Cracks that looked like spider webs appeared on the entire ice surface and extended downwards at an extremely fast speed.
"Not good! Retreat! " Zhang Xueyu immediately ordered. Although she did not know what had happened, such an explosion must have been a trap left by the Northern Region.
But before everyone could retreat, there were hundreds of consecutive explosions.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
At this moment, the ice surface that the soldiers were standing on finally shattered. After letting out a scream, they fell into the Black Tortoise Fury River.
"Help!"
"There's a ghost!"
"The Black Tortoise of the Black Tortoise Fury River is angry!"
For a moment, someone saw pairs of bloodshot eyes from the ice cave. Their first reaction was that a monster had appeared in the Black Tortoise Fury River.
The Assassination Society's army immediately became a pot of porridge as they fled in all directions like street rats.
For a moment, the entire situation was chaotic.
The disorderly footsteps of the Assassination Society's soldiers caused the ice surface to collapse even faster.
In just a few breaths' time, there were hundreds of explosions from the Black Tortoise Fury River.
Large amounts of ice shattered and broke like pieces of paper.
Countless soldiers fell into the Black Tortoise Fury River and were swallowed by the river.
"This is …!" Zhang Xueyu took a huge stride and arrived in front of an ice cave. She looked into the Black Tortoise Fury River.
The scene that she saw was unforgettable and she could not calm down for a long time.
