"Kaboom!" A bolt of lightning exploded in the sky.
The rain of arrows and the torrential rain clashed. The Southern Region soldiers raised their heads to look at the rain of arrows.
However, they realized that they could not see anything due to the torrential rain.
As such...
Miserable screams rang out one after another as burly soldiers fell to the ground, their bodies trampled by the soldiers who were running behind them.
However, they did not regret it. They were soldiers.
"Boom!" The galloping black cloud finally rushed into the dense crowd. The cruel battle between the two armies had officially begun at this moment.
The sound of the horn rang out from the gates of the Icy Monkey Settlement. In the midst of the torrential rain, the sound was extremely penetrating. When the Southern Region soldiers heard the sound of the horn, their bodies glowed with a metallic glow. Their muscles bulged.
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
The Great Xia soldiers, who were lined up in formation, raised their spears high and defended with all their might. In the middle of the formation, countless archers were continuously drawing their bows to the fullest, releasing, drawing to the fullest, and releasing again …
Corpses fell to the ground.
He fell into a pool of blood, staining the ground red and splashing water.
Xing Qingsui charged to the front of the two armies under the protection of a dozen soldiers. He waved his black sword and pierced through the bodies of the Southern Region soldiers.
"Pass on the order, surround them from both sides. Switch from defense to offense!" Xing Qingsui pulled his sword out of the chest of a Southern Region soldier, his gaze sweeping across the battlefield as he gave the order.
"Yes!" One of the soldiers guarding him immediately raised the flag in his hand and waved the command flag in the heavy rain.
At this moment, a deafening roar of a beast was heard.
It was the Southern Region general.
Right now, the Southern Region General's eyes were glowing with a green light, like a wolf's. The huge beast hide on his back seemed to have turned into sharp spikes.
He raised his machete high up in the air and sliced apart two soldiers in front of him. The huge beast he rode on leapt towards Xing Qingsui.
"Die!" His roar was filled with a domineering aura. It was obvious that this Southern Region general was not weak at all.
He was at least of the Supernatural Advanced State.
How strong was Xing Qingsui?
He was only in the Heavenly Reflection State. Against such a powerful general, the only thing he could do was to run away with his tail between his legs.
However, when Xing Qingsui saw the Southern Region general in front of him, he smiled. It was the smile of someone who had endured humiliation for a long time.
He did not retreat.
He didn't even move. He watched as the Southern Region general's machete slashed towards his head. He didn't even blink.
Boom!
A loud noise was heard.
Following which, a beam of light shot into the sky. It shot out from behind Xing Qingsui like a huge, sharp sword.
At the same time, a head flew high into the air.
It was the head of the Southern Region General. His eyes were still wide open, but there was a look of disbelief in them, as well as a deep sense of indignation.
At this moment, a figure leaped up and grabbed the head that was flying in the air with one hand. Finally, he stood firmly on the ground.
The torrential rain had washed away a large amount of blood.
It dyed the calm and fertile land red. The grass was bent on the ground. It wanted to raise its head, but before it could straighten its back, it was stepped on by another foot.
"The general of the Southern Region is dead. Follow me and take down the Icy Monkey Settlement!" A bright voice rang out. At the same time, the head of the Southern Region general was raised high into the air.
In that instant.
The soldiers of the Great Xia and the Southern Region, who were engaged in an intense battle, stopped. Their gazes turned to the figure holding the severed head of the Southern Region general.
It was originally an ordinary soldier wearing ordinary armor.
However, the moment he raised the head, the armor on his body was sliced open, revealing a purplish gold robe.
There was a look of calmness on his face. It was the calmness of someone who had been on the battlefield for a long time.
"It's Xing Hou!"
"Oh my god, Xing Hou is here!"
"We're saved!"
When the soldiers of Great Xia saw this figure, their expressions changed completely. If they were previously fighting with a strong will to fight, they were now like lost lambs who saw the light in the dark.
Xing Hou, Xing Yuanguo of the Stabilization Constabulary.
He was the pillar of the Great Xia Dynasty, the leader of the 13 Constabularies, a Rank One Marquis. He was the true god of war in the eyes of all the soldiers.
Even Xin Jue, who had led the army for many years, did not dare to claim that he was more powerful than Xing Yuanguo.
"Mountain Breaking Army!"
"Here!"
"Open a path!"
"Yes!"
Their voices rang out in unison once more.
Following that, the normal armor was thrown to the ground as soldiers in shining armor charged out from behind Xing Yuanguo.
When the Southern Region soldiers charged into the Great Xia army, they were like wolves charging into a flock of sheep.
As such, the Mountain Breaking Army was like a tiger hidden within a flock of sheep. A tiger that could tear apart a flock of sheep.
One by one, they shot out like arrows, their sharp spears piercing through the stunned Southern Region soldiers.
It was too fast.
Everything happened too fast.
The Southern Region soldiers did not even have time to react.
Originally, they had the absolute advantage. However, they never expected that their general would suddenly die in the midst of a charge.
Then...
Xing Hou of the Stabilisation Constabulary of the Great Xia Dynasty appeared in front of them with the Mountain Breaking Army. The name of the Mountain Breaking Army was too famous for the soldiers of the Southern Region. Almost all of the soldiers knew that this was the true elite of the Stabilisation Constabulary.
What the hell was going on?
The Southern Region soldiers could not react in time.
It wasn't just the Southern Region soldiers who couldn't react in time. Even the Great Xia Dynasty's candidates who were fighting for their lives couldn't react in time.
"Xing Hou is here?!"
"Even the Mountain Breaking Army is here?!"
"What is going on? Why is Xing Hou hiding amongst the soldiers? Why is the Mountain Breaking Army also hiding amongst the soldiers? When did they hide? "
All of these questions surfaced in their minds.
They couldn't figure out the specific details, but they understood one thing. That was, everything had already been planned by the Great Xia Dynasty.
Xing Yuanguo hiding amongst the Great Xia Dynasty's troops could be a coincidence. However, the fact that a large number of Mountain Breaking Army soldiers were hiding amongst the Great Xia Dynasty's troops proved that all of this was part of their plan.
Their motive was to incite the Southern Region and the Demons into action. At the same time, they wanted to catch the Southern Region and the Demons off guard.
As a matter of fact, there was indeed a shocking reversal of the situation at this moment.
The Southern Region general had been killed by Xing Yuanguo in a moment of carelessness. Following that, the Mountain Breaking Army pounced on the Southern Region soldiers like a pack of wolves, tearing a path through their ranks.
The Mountain Breaking Army!
Their strengths lay in their ability to charge on flat ground.
The flat ground in front of the Icy Monkey Settlement was the perfect place for the Mountain Breaking Army to display their strength. The Southern Region soldiers didn't even have time to react.
Without the leadership of the Southern Region general, coupled with the sudden appearance of the Mountain Breaking Army, the Southern Region soldiers, who had the upper hand, began to panic.
However, they were only panicking.
After all, this was the Southern Region, and they were the warriors of the Southern Region. Even if their general was killed, they would not surrender immediately. They still had weapons. As long as they had weapons, they would fight to the death.
"Everyone, do not panic. Hold them off and avenge General Ke!"
"Continue to charge!"
"Those in the middle, defend with me!"
All of the deputies began to give out orders, organizing the Southern Region soldiers to charge. However, their orders were a little messy.
Those who were charging and those who were defending were defending.
Just at this moment, a deafening roar of battle erupted from the gates of the Icy Monkey Settlement. Corpses after corpses were flung down from the top of the walls, emitting a series of pitiful cries.
All of the candidates were shocked when they saw this.
Could it be...
There were soldiers in the Icy Monkey Settlement?
All of the candidates turned to look at Nangong Hao. Nangong Hao was also watching this scene. However, his expression was calm.
All of the candidates finally understood.
From the start, only 1,000 of Nangong Hao's 2,000 soldiers had appeared. Those 1,000 soldiers were the ones guarding the exit of the wind valley.
As for the other 1,000?
They had never appeared.
This was a detail that was easily overlooked. However, when they heard the sounds of fighting, everyone understood what was going on.
If the Emperor could insert the Mountain Breaking Army from the Stabilisation Constabulary into the army, why would the Emperor only give Nangong Hao two armies of normal soldiers?
The 1,000 ordinary soldiers were placed at the most obvious exit to confuse the Southern Region. The true elites were left to guard the Icy Monkey Settlement.
This meant that from the start, Nangong Hao had already planned to work with the Stabilisation Constabulary to take down the Icy Monkey Settlement. All of this had been planned.
Trump card!
This was the Emperor's true trump card!
"Charge, charge into the Icy Monkey Settlement!"
"Charge!"
"Only by charging into the Icy Monkey Settlement will we be able to survive!"
All of the commanders began to yell. Everyone knew that the only way out was to charge into the Icy Monkey Settlement.
The morale of the Great Xia soldiers was instantly boosted.
Close to 50,000 soldiers were in a stable formation, advancing step by step towards the Southern Region soldiers. Under the charge of the Mountain Breaking Army, they flew towards the Icy Monkey Settlement.
Behind them, the soldiers were doing their best to resist the Southern Mountain Range soldiers charging out from the exit of wind valley. As they resisted, they slowly retreated.
The gates of the Icy Monkey Settlement were completely blocked. The Southern Region soldiers were being slaughtered by the Mountain Breaking Army. Coupled with the death of their commander, the lieutenants were in disarray.
Finally...
They were on the verge of collapse.
...
"So this is the true trump card of the Great Xia!"
On the cliff, the young Vice Domain Chief standing behind Yun Qingwu looked at Xing Yuanguo with a hint of battle intent in his eyes.
However, this trace of battle intent only flashed for a moment before disappearing.
"Mm, since the Great Xia is going to attack the Southern Region, they need a commander. This commander cannot be Nangong Hao. Xing Yuanguo... is more like it." Yun Qingwu answered the young Vice Domain Chief's question as she looked at the retreating Southern Region soldiers.
"Young Master, since you guessed that the Great Xia would send out a commander, why don't you take this opportunity to kill them all?"
"What is our objective this time?" Yun Qingwu did not answer the young deputy commander's question directly. Instead, she asked him a question.
"This... of course it is the Southern Region..." The young Vice Domain Chief was stunned. He did not understand what Yun Qingwu was trying to say, but he replied quickly.
"Do you think that if we annihilate the entire Great Xia army now, the Southern Region will listen to us demons? The Icy Monkey Settlement is a strategic location, and we will destroy the Great Xia sooner or later. However, if we want the Southern Region to belong to us, this is not something that can be decided by the Battle of the Icy Monkey Settlement. "Yun Qingwu said.
"Young Master, what do you mean?" The young Vice Domain Chief seemed to understand.
"If I am not wrong, the Southern Region Noblelite wants to use us to restrict the Great Xia so that he can break free from their control and become the Emperor."
"So Young Master had already guessed the Southern Region Noblelite's intentions. I understand now."
"Let's go."
"Roger!" The young Vice Domain Chief nodded. Then, he turned to look at a figure bathed in purple light. "Young Master... do you want me to help Wu Ji?"
"No need, Bai Xing will take care of it." Yun Qingwu also looked at Fang Zhengzhi at this moment. She seemed to be in a trance, but she quickly recovered and shook her head.
"Yes, Sir!"
...
From the moment Bai Xing saw Xing Yuanguo, he knew the outcome of this battle. He did not step forward to fight Xing Yuanguo.
He did not order the demon elites to stop the advance of the Mountain Breaking Army.
This was because he knew that he had an even more important mission to complete. And that mission was the figure that was entangled with Wu Ji.
