"Are you surprised?"
Dongfang Zhan looked at Bai Yunfei mockingly, "I was the one who raised you, so I know how strong you are. But how much do you know about my strength? "
"Until now, you probably still think that my Martial Soul's ability is only for defense, right?"
Bai Yunfei's eyes widened in shock at Dongfang Zhan's words, "Don't tell me …"
Dongfang Zhan revealed a proud expression, "You guessed correctly. My martial soul's true name is actually 'Anti-Damage Armor'. In addition to defending myself, it can also reflect some of the attacks I receive back to my opponent in the form of an energy field."
"Although only a small part of the attack you just used on me was converted into an energy field and reflected back, the damage from this kind of feedback is able to ignore your surface defenses. It's enough to tear your organs apart."
Walking up to Bai Yunfei, Dongfang Zhan raised his sword up high and brought it down to Bai Yunfei's neck.
Blood sprayed high into the sky, and a bloody head rolled on the ground.
Then, the sound of hurried footsteps could be heard.
Only then did Dongfang Zhan sheathe his sword. He calmly turned his head, only to see a group of soldiers rushing over.
"What's going on!"
"What in the world is going on?!"
When the soldiers arrived at the scene, they couldn't help but raise their guard at the sight.
When the captain saw Dongfang Zhan, he immediately ran up to him and bowed respectfully, "This general pays his respects to General Dongfang. May I ask what just happened here?!"
Dongfang Zhan looked at Bai Yunfei's corpse, "My vice-general secretly colluded with the enemy and sold his country for glory. When I found out about this, I executed him on the spot in a fit of anger. "
Everyone was shocked at Dongfang Zhan's words, but they didn't doubt him at all.
"Who would've thought that Bai Yunfei would do something so despicable!"
"It's a good thing that General Dongfang is wise, or the consequences would've been unthinkable!"
"General Dongfang disregarded his personal feelings and personally killed his subordinate. How righteous of you!"
Everyone was filled with admiration for Dongfang Zhan and praise him.
"Clean up the scene." Dongfang Zhan waved his hand and left without a care in the world.
… …
The next morning.
When Lin Yun emerged from his closed door cultivation, his entire body's skin was like a diamond that was filled with a luster, and his aura was restrained to the point it was practically impossible to detect. Obviously, he'd already cultivated the Indestructible Godly Body to the Mastery Stage.
Lin Yun's current body was countless times stronger than steel, and could even be compared to the totemic old man in his 10,000-fold state. However, his weight was only slightly more than 500 kilograms.
The strength of a substance was not only determined by its density, but also by the arrangement of its particles.
Although the density of Lin Yun's body was far less than the totem elder's, which was ten thousand times the mass. However, the special arrangement of the particles also allowed his body to obtain unimaginable strength.
After bidding farewell to Lin Ying, Lin Yun rushed to the Expedition Sect.
When Lin Yun arrived at the Expedition Gate, there was already a group of Templars and a group of Imperial Guards waiting for him.
Apart from the imperial guards, there were also several Martial Arts experts present. Among them were Grand Secretary Murong Tuohai, as well as Dongfang Hao, who had previously fought with Lin Yun.
They were obviously here to escort the Southern Summer King to the frontlines.
Dongfang Hao was a frontline general, and the war with Northern Yan was approaching. It was only natural for him to rush back to the frontlines to guard.
And the purpose of Murong Tuohai rushing to the frontlines was to popularize a newly developed weapon in the army.
Not long after Lin Yun arrived at the scene, the Southern Summer King also arrived. Accompanying the Southern Summer King was the Southern Summer Princess, Nangong Yan.
The Southern Summer King leading Lin Yun to the frontlines to parade the troops was only secondary, and there were many other reasons.
On one hand, it was to inspect the deployment of the frontlines and play a supervisory role.
On one hand, it was to encourage the frontline soldiers, to show that the kingdom had never forgotten them, and to boost the morale of the Southern Summer King's army.
Another reason was to bring Nangong Yan out to see the world and let her grow, so that when she ascended to the throne in the future, she would have enough boldness to intimidate the three armies.
The Southern Summer King was a martial country, and anyone with strength could ascend to the throne, regardless of gender.
The people of the Southern Summer King did not care about the gender of the successor, but they would definitely care about the successor's strength.
The Southern Summer King did not have many children, and their talent in cultivation was not satisfactory. Only Nangong Yan was outstanding. Although she could not be compared to the three evildoers, she could be said to be a dragon among men.
Therefore, Nangong Yan became the only candidate in the Southern Summer King's mind to inherit the throne.
If even Nangong Yan was unable to succeed to the throne, then the throne could only be replaced by another expert, and this was something that the Southern Summer King did not want to see.
In order to let Nangong Yan succeed to the throne in the future, the Southern Summer King took great pains to let her accompany him to the frontline stronghold to patrol the border.
The king's carriage started moving, and the golden carriage was pulled by the Single-Horned Dragon.
A hundred Temple Knights protected the king in front, and a thousand royal guards followed behind, forming a majestic long line.
Lin Yun rode a Silver-Horned Dragon in front of the king's carriage.
Grand Scholar Murong Tuohai and Dongfang Hao guarded the king's carriage on both sides.
The rest of the martial arts experts followed behind the royal entourage, following the vast army towards the vast wilderness in the north.
The formation of this army was very shocking, and the possibility of being assassinated was almost zero.
The Southern Summer King had the cultivation of Level Four King Wu. Although he was not the strongest in the Southern Summer King Kingdom, he was at least second to none.
It could be said that apart from the Three Rulers, there was almost no one in the Southern Summer King Kingdom who was a match for him.
There was almost no one who could successfully assassinate the Southern Summer King in this army.
The wilderness was vast and boundless, and there were no signs of human habitation.
The vast army advanced in the vast wilderness, and they could only occasionally see the scouts' outposts. Other than that, there were only protruding rocks and messy weeds.
They did not meet any obstacles along the way.
At dusk, after a long day of travel, the army finally saw two towering peaks on the horizon in the distance — that was the border of the Southern Summer King Kingdom.
Although the two peaks seemed to be right in front of them, the army still spent a whole hour to reach the foot of the mountains.
In the middle of the two peaks, there was a steel-like fortress. That was undoubtedly the frontier fortress of the Southern Summer King Kingdom.
The fortress was huge, and the city walls were magnificent. It could be said to be a great miracle in modern construction, and it was breathtaking.
This magnificent frontier fortress was built under the orders of the first Southern Summer King. It required the use of hundreds of thousands of people, and it took dozens of years.
It was only when the second Southern Summer King took office that the construction was completed. It consumed a lot of manpower and resources, and caused the Southern Summer King Kingdom to be in a state of extreme poverty for a long time.
