Kill Yun Qingwu!
General Mu did not know what Yun Qingwu was planning. However, as he watched Yun Qingwu approach the gates of the Iron Hill Settlement, this thought flashed through his mind.
Anger the demons?
General Mu knew that if he killed Yun Qingwu, the demons would go berserk. This battle would become a brutal massacre.
However, he also knew that...
If they could kill Yun Qingwu, it would be a huge loss to the Demon Race.
"Get ready!" General Mu raised his hand.
The Southern Region had already declared war on the Demon Race. Thus, naively trying to curry favor with the Demon Race and avoid fighting as much as possible was undoubtedly a sign of cowardice.
As a warrior of the Southern Region...
General Mu was not afraid of death. The soldiers guarding the Iron Hill Settlement should not be afraid either. In that case, they would kill without hesitation, regardless of whether they were young masters or not.
If one came, they would kill one. If two came, they would kill both.
As long as they took a step forward...
There was only one word...
Kill!
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh …" The Southern Region soldiers on the city walls drew their bows into a full crescent moon shape as they followed General Mu's signal.
The sharp arrows glinted coldly under the sunlight.
On the other hand, Yun Qingwu acted as if she did not see this. She did not even stop in her tracks. Her expression was as calm as still water. Her dress danced in the wind.
"Kill!" General Mu did not hesitate for long. Yun Qingwu had already passed the range of the arrows. There was no need to wait any longer.
"Woosh woosh woosh!"
"Woosh woosh woosh!"
The sound of an arrow piercing through the air was followed by a rain of arrows. Hundreds of arrows flew into the sky, all of them aimed for Yun Qingwu's head.
At that moment, a ray of blue light appeared from the front line of the demons.
It was a figure standing next to the black carriage. He was covered from head to toe in a black cloak. Even his face could not be seen.
Even so, no one dared to ignore this ray of blue light.
Because...
The moment the blue light appeared, it disappeared. When it reappeared, it was already above Yun Qingwu's head.
Since ancient times, there had always been a saying about the blue sky and white clouds.
Of course, there was no need to deliberately verify whether the sky was really blue or if it was a visual impact caused by the refraction of light.
What was certain was that the blue radiance above Yun Qingwu's head was as blue as the sky. It was so pure that there were no other colors.
Arrows rained down from the sky.
It fell into the pure blue, then passed through the blue, giving off a soft sound, and finally pierced deep into the ground.
"Got it?!"
When the Southern Region soldiers saw the arrows piercing the ground, they were overjoyed. However, their joy quickly disappeared.
Because there was no trace of blood on the arrow on the ground.
Yun Qingwu stopped at this moment. She raised her head slightly and looked at the blue floating above her head. Then, she lowered her head and looked at the arrow beneath her feet.
Then, she continued to walk forward. Step by step, she stepped on the arrows that were stuck in the ground to stop her, making a crisp cracking sound.
"What's going on?" The Southern Region soldiers looked at Yun Qingwu, who continued to walk towards the gate, and the blue light above her head, their faces filled with confusion.
General Mu's expression did not look good either.
"Kill, shoot again!"
"Swoosh swoosh swoosh..."
The sky full of arrows flew up again, and then fell again.
Just like before, the arrows pierced through the blue light and into the ground, almost as if they had pierced through Yun Qingwu's body.
However, Yun Qingwu's body was still as white as snow. There was no trace of blood on her body.
It was a strange sight.
"What's going on?!"
"They all hit her, why isn't she hurt?"
"That's impossible!"
All of the Southern Region soldiers could not understand. They had all seen the arrows pierce through Yun Qingwu's body, but she was not hurt.
"This... could this be..." General Mu's expression changed, almost as if he had just thought of something terrifying.
"General, could this be..."
All of the other generals widened their eyes in shock. Some of them even paled.
"That's right, that's it!" General Mu clenched his fists tightly, a mixture of indignation and fear on his face.
The other generals subconsciously sucked in a breath of cold air after hearing General Mu's words.
If they had been confused when they saw this, then when they saw the blue light above Yun Qingwu's head, they were filled with fear.
Because...
They all knew what had just happened.
From their angle, they could indeed see the arrows piercing through Yun Qingwu's body. This was because they were all standing on the city walls. However, if they were to look from the front, they would be able to see that when the arrows pierced through the blue light, they actually disappeared momentarily.
Simply put, when the arrows came into contact with the blue light, they were transported to another world. They went around Yun Qingwu and landed on the ground.
Very few people knew how this happened.
Just like how few people could break through the cycle of rebirth and become a sage.
There were six Daos in the cycle of rebirth.
Every Dao was a powerful Great Dao. Beneath these Great Daos, there were countless smaller Daos. These smaller Daos became the Great Dao, just like thousands of streams converging to form a river.
This was what many people did, and it was a common practice.
First, understand the smaller Daos, then use the smaller Daos to understand the Great Dao. Finally, enter the most powerful Dao.
Of course...
There were exceptions.
For example, Yan Xiu.
It was different from entering the Great Dao from a small path. Yan Xiu had directly comprehended the Six Dao of Asura, which was equivalent to entering the Great Dao directly. However, everything had its own rules. There was no such thing as reaching the heavens in a single step.
Even though Yan Xiu had understood the Dao of Asura...
That did not mean that he had entered the Rebirth State. He had not fully understood all of the smaller Daos in the Dao of Asura.
This was equivalent to opening a door in one go, but the road leading to the door was a little shabby. Although you did reach the door in the end, the road was too narrow and quite shabby.
As such...
How would you dare to open the door completely?
Once that powerful force completely rushes out from the gate, it is bound to completely destroy that shabby path of yours.
That was Yan Xiu's situation.
Of course, this was a situation that everyone envied.
No matter what, Yan Xiu had already opened the door to the Dao of Asura. All that was left was to pave the way and lay the foundation.
Yan Xiu had understood the Dao of Asura of the Six Rebirth Daos. This was equivalent to breaking through the bottleneck of the Rebirth State.
In order to break through the Rebirth State and become a sage...
There was also a bottleneck.
Over the years, there have been countless people who have stepped into the cycle of reincarnation. However, those who could break through the cycle of reincarnation and become a Saint in one go were few and far between.
The reason...
It was the last of the six Daos.
"The Heavenly Dao is the Heavenly Rebirth Dao, the head of the six Daos!" When the Southern Region soldiers heard General Mu's confirmation, they finally understood what the blue above Yun Qingwu's head meant.
"Heavens!"
"That is the true heavens!"
The soldiers of the Southern Region stared at the patch of blue with their eyes wide open. Their expressions were filled with the same fear.
This meant that...
One of the demons who attacked the Iron Hill Settlement had mastered the Heavenly Rebirth Dao.
In other words, they were facing a devil that was half a step into the Saint Realm. In other words, it wasn't just a boundless army of Devil Soldiers that stood before them, there was also a Half-Saint!
How do we fight?
That was the thought in the minds of all the Southern Region soldiers.
Unlike the soldiers of the Southern Region, the Demon soldiers who were still standing had furious expressions on their faces. They were enraged as they watched the Young Lord of the Demon Race being "bullied" at will.
Even though the arrows that fell from the walls of the Iron Hill Settlement did not pierce through Yun Qingwu's body, they pierced through the hearts of the demon soldiers.
"Die!"
"Die!"
"Die!!!"
Enraged roars rang out from the mouths of hundreds of thousands of demons, causing the black walls of the Iron Hill Settlement to tremble.
A murderous aura emanated from the bodies of the Demon soldiers.
Every demon was furious because no demon could remain calm after seeing Yun Qingwu being "hurt".
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"..."
Countless voices rang out in unison. No one gave any orders, but all of the Demon soldiers raised their shields and slammed them into the ground.
That was anger, that was venting.
At the same time, Yun Qingwu stopped in her tracks. She had reached the gates of the Iron Hill Settlement. A gust of wind blew past, causing her white dress to flutter in the wind.
General Mu's face was as white as a sheet.
He finally understood why Yun Qingwu had come all the way here. It seemed like an ordinary journey, but it was filled with intelligence.
Everything of everything.
From the moment Yun Qingwu stepped out of the black carriage, the Iron Hill Settlement was in her hands. Everyone's thoughts were in her hands.
She did not say a word.
She had ignited the morale of the Demon soldiers.
She had blocked the arrows with her own body!
Vicious!
Not only had Yun Qingwu ignited the morale of the Demon soldiers, she had also destroyed the morale of the Southern Region soldiers.
Heavenly Rebirth Dao.
Half sage!
Yun Qingwu had made full use of all of her advantages. She had made use of all of this to walk a seemingly ordinary path.
"Young Master of the Devils? Is this the young master of the Devils?!" General Mu's body trembled slightly.
In Princess Shan Yu's tent, General Mu had heard Teng Shisheng describe how Yun Qingwu had been held hostage and how he had defeated the Demons and Southern Region soldiers in front of the Icy Monkey Settlement.
General Mu had not thought much of it.
But now...
When Yun Qingwu stood in front of him, when he saw the legendary Young Master of the Demons, there was only one thought in his mind.
Fear!
General Mu knew how terrifying it was to be afraid before the battle even started. However, he had no other choice, because he had no idea how to lead the battle anymore.
The two armies faced each other.
Morale was number one.
However, he had no way to raise the morale of his troops.
In front of him, the hundreds of thousands of demon soldiers had already started to move. Step by step, the rumbling sounds shook the ground and resounded throughout the sky of the Southern Region.
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
"..."
...
In a huge valley in the Southern Region...
Countless soldiers in black armor stood around the valley with spears in their hands, strictly guarding the various passages leading into the valley.
In a large and luxurious tent, Crown Prince Lin Tianrong, who was dressed in a silver brocade robe, was half-lying on a sleeping mat that was covered with silk and luxurious fur. However, he was unable to truly fall asleep.
"Your Highness, the Southern Region messenger wishes to see you!"
"Southern Region messenger? Let him in. " Crown Prince Lin Tianrong was visibly agitated by the soldier's report, but his tone was as calm as ever.
"Yes!" The soldier retreated.
Very soon, the tent flap was lifted again, and a skinny, dark-skinned, middle-aged man walked in under the lead of two soldiers.
Crown Prince Lin Tianrong's gaze shifted when he saw the middle-aged man.
In the Southern Mountain Range, powerful experts were usually very muscular. Their backs and waists were the characteristics of the Southern Mountain Range. However, the middle-aged man in front of them was obviously on the skinny side.
But...
Crown Prince Lin Tianrong felt a sense of danger from the middle-aged man. It was a strange feeling. It was as though the middle-aged man was hiding a huge amount of power.
"Greetings, Your Highness." The middle-aged man walked into the tent and stood still. He had no intention of getting too close to the Crown Prince.
Crown Prince Lin Tianrong heaved a sigh of relief when he saw this.
The two soldiers beside the middle-aged man were furious. The Southern Region was a vassal state of the Great Xia. How could the messenger not kneel in front of the Crown Prince?
Even though the Southern Region and the Great Xia were at war...
But...
That did not mean that as the bodyguards of the Crown Prince, they did not have to protect the dignity of the Great Xia.
"Why didn't you kneel in front of the Crown Prince of the Great Xia?" As one of the soldiers spoke, he kicked the skinny middle-aged man's calf with one leg.
"Dong!"
The skinny middle-aged man did not pay any attention to the soldier. He allowed the soldier to kick his calf, but his legs did not move at all.
"Your Highness, this is a letter for you." As the skinny middle-aged man spoke, he took out an exquisite piece of animal skin from his bosom and raised it in front of his chest with both hands.
"The Southern Region has always been like this. Shouldn't you at least identify yourself before sending a letter?" Crown Prince Lin Tianrong frowned as he looked at the animal skin in the middle-aged man's hands.
