Li Qingshan flashed past the two white tigers.
The white tigers did not slow down and aimed at Han Qiongzhi. They were not living creatures and could not differentiate between friend and foe. Once they were controlled by their master, they would tear everything in front of them apart.
Han Qiongzhi made a hand seal and did not even look at the white tigers that were pouncing at her. Just as the strong wind blew her long hair and the sharp claws were about to grab her, she stopped.
Li Qingshan opened his arms and grabbed the two tiger tails. The white tigers roared and bared their fangs and claws, but they could not advance any further. They turned around and pounced at Li Qingshan again.
Li Qingshan bellowed out, and he spun around like a spinning top. His two tiger tails were completely straight, and he actually flung the two tigers of white jade that weighed several hundred kilograms into the air. With a rumble, they smashed into two deep pits.
"What powerful strength!" "No wonder he dared to propose to the Han Clan!"
This move shocked all the Han Clan disciples on the gatehouse. They quickly took action and shot thousands of arrows.
Twang, twang, twang, twang. The bowstrings cracked.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh. The arrows were as dense as a dark cloud.
"Blazing Firebird!" Han Qiongzhi shouted.
Li Qingshan's vision dimmed before lighting up again. A firebird soared through the air, unfurling its thirty-meter-long wings of fire. It dispersed the dark clouds and rushed up to the tower, turning into a great blaze and forcing the archers to retreat. They were in complete disarray.
"This is your home." Li Qingshan looked back.
"Hmph, it's better not to have a home like this!"
Below the dark gatehouse, there were close to a hundred armored soldiers with dagger-axes in their hands. They were in a square formation and looked murderous.
"They're here. Be on guard!"
A Qi Refinement Stage 8 old man with a mustache shouted like thunder. He pointed the dagger-axes at the gate.
Two figures, Li Qingshan and Han Qiongzhi, walked over slowly. They were like a couple who were taking a stroll and were even talking in low voices.
"Is this really just a gatehouse?" Li Qingshan looked at the formation in front of him and was slightly surprised. The so-called gatehouse was also known as the old man who guarded the gate. He had never seen a gatehouse with such an imposing aura. His cultivation was so high.
"We usually call it the Gatehouse Army. There are eight divisions in total and they guard the eight gates. The commander is the Gatehouse Centurion," Han Qiongzhi explained with a smile.
"Miss, this matter has nothing to do with you. You should leave quickly so that you don't get hurt. Brat, if you have the guts, come and try it yourself. What kind of man was he to rely on a woman? Let this old man teach you what wishful thinking is! "
The centurion shouted. He brandished his halberd, and sharp winds surged. His beard trembled, and he appeared hale and hearty, without the slightest sign of old age.
"Centurion. This is a matter between the two of us. If we go alone, what's the point? "If it was any other day, Han Qiongzhi would have to call him grandpa. But today, it was as if two armies were facing each other. He didn't care about personal feelings and only addressed him as a soldier.
"What's wrong?" Han Qiongzhi suddenly felt that Li Qingshan was looking at her with his bright eyes and touched her face.
"Nothing? I just think you look very beautiful today! "
"You're still talking nonsense at a time like this." Han Qiongzhi blushed and was about to step forward when Li Qingshan grabbed her shoulder.
"Leave this to me. You recover some strength. I also want to teach this Gatehouse Centurion what it means to have a son-in-law come and be unstoppable!"
Han Qiongzhi burst into laughter. This guy could be so frivolous sometimes. "Go easy on him."
"Okay!" "No!" Li Qingshan and the Gatehouse Centurion replied at the same time. The two looked at each other, one smiling and the other angry.
"Kill!" The Gatehouse Army Centurion pointed with his halberd, and the Gatehouse Army Centurion roared at the same time, "Kill!" The Gatehouse Army Centurion's footsteps were sonorous, and their halberds were like trees in a forest. The Gatehouse Army Centurion charged at Li Qingshan like a magnificent army.
The Gatehouse Centurion thought to himself, "You're only in the eighth layer of Qi Refinement, and you're from some school of novels. How can you be worthy of the Miss? You must be using flowery words to fool the Miss. You even dare to say that you'll go easy on him. You really don't know what's good for you. Do you think we old soldiers are ordinary Qi Refinement cultivators? No matter how I look at it, it's a hundred against one, and I'm also in the eighth layer of Qi Refinement.
Boom!
A loud noise interrupted the Gatehouse Centurion's thoughts. In front of him, the soldiers screamed and flew into the air, slamming into the wall of the Gatehouse Army Gate. From afar, they were like a monster charging at them.
Wave Treading Style!
The waves under Li Qingshan's feet surged, and he charged forward like an arrow released from a bow, straight into the army formation.
Vortex Style!
The waves in Li Qingshan's right hand spun rapidly, and his whole body was like a giant drill as he charged forward.
When he touched the soldiers, he bounced off and was sucked into the halberd, breaking into pieces. Wherever he went, people and horses fell. In an instant, he pierced through the army formation and arrived in front of the Gatehouse Centurion.
"Watch out, sir!"
The centurion was taken aback. He had never imagined that his Gatehouse Army would be so vulnerable. How could he possibly back down? With a loud roar, his halberd shone brilliantly, shattering the tiles beneath his feet. Wielding the halberd with both hands, he thrust it toward Li Qingshan with all his might.
The dagger-axe and the drill bit collided fiercely. The sound was like an electric saw cutting through metal, but it only lasted for a moment before the dagger-axe was sent flying.
The centurion retreated in shock. The webbing between his thumb and index finger was torn apart. The water ripple drill drilled into his body in an unstoppable manner. His protective zhenqi was as fragile as paper, and his shining armor was torn into pieces.
My life is over!
The centurion let out a long sigh in his heart. He had never thought that he would die here after spending his entire life fighting. The terrifying might of this Battle Technique was something that he understood clearly the instant they clashed. Flesh and blood would not be able to block it.
He did not feel any pain either. When he lowered his head, he saw that he was completely naked, but he was not injured at all. When he looked up, he saw Li Qingshan standing in front of him, smiling at him. He could not help but be stunned.
All of this took a long time to describe. From the moment Li Qingshan used the Vortex Technique to defeating the centurion, it took less than a breath's time.
Han Qiongzhi was rather surprised as well. She had already known that Li Qingshan's abilities were impressive. Even Chu Tian, who had a higher cultivation as a Qi Practitioner, was not his opponent. He definitely could not be stopped by the gatekeeper army, which was why she told him to hold back a little, just to avoid harming this old man who had watched her grow up.
However, she did not expect him to win so quickly and cleanly. Moreover, he did not hurt the centurion at all. Her heart was filled with pride. This was the man she valued. He could always surprise people. Anyone who looked down on him would be blind.
"I've lost. You do have some skill, but it won't be so easy from now on. I advise you to retreat as soon as possible. If you're not careful, you might lose your life!"
The centurion said solemnly. There was no longer any contempt in his eyes. Being able to break through the Wild Goose Formation was not particularly impressive. He could just about do it. However, being able to tear apart his clothes without hurting him at all proved that he still had a lot of strength left in him. His control over his combat skills had also reached the realm of Minute Subtlety. If it was a real life or death battle, these hundred people would probably be killed by this brat with one hand. Where did the young miss find such a monster? She did have a good eye.
"Elder, you'd better block him!" Han Qiongzhi walked to Li Qingshan's side and pointed at the centurion's lower body.
"This old man deserves to die for dirtying Miss's eyes!" The centurion's face turned red and he hurriedly covered his lower body.
'Anyway, I've been dirtied many times recently. I'm used to it,' Han Qiongzhi thought. She hooked her arm around Li Qingshan's. "Let's go!"
"How's your recovery?" Li Qingshan asked.
"You're so fast. How would I have time to recover?"
"Yes, as a man, how can I be too fast? Don't worry, Madam. I'll try to slow down in the future." Li Qingshan chuckled. Han Qiongzhi kicked him. "Don't think I don't understand. This is my home!"
"I've never seen a home that knows how to build a barbican!"
After saying that, the two of them passed through the gate. Li Qingshan stopped in his tracks. In front of him was a large open space. There were high walls on all sides and watchtowers and battlements. It was a barbican.
The only way to pass through the barbican was through a huge black iron gate about a thousand feet in front of them.
An elegant man with a long beard and a tall hat was playing the guqin on top of the tower.
"Uncle Cao's zither is still as pleasant as ever," Han Qiongzhi said as she introduced him to Li Qingshan softly. "This' uncle Cao 'is Cao Gan. He's my father's military adviser. Not only is he a tenth layer Qi Practitioner, but he's also known for his resourcefulness and schemes. He's no trifling matter. Looks like my father intends to stop us in this barbican."
Li Qingshan grinned. Wasn't it natural for a man to marry a woman? Why was this old man acting like he was guarding against a thief? Could it be that he had a father who was obsessed with his daughter?
"Qiongzhi, this is the end. It seems like your father doesn't like the brat beside you. It's useless even if he sees you. It's not too late to leave now," Cao Gan said as he played the guqin.
"I don't care if he likes me or not. It's enough that I like him! Who's going to get married? Me or him? "Han Qiongzhi was also angered. She said rudely.
"Well said!" Li Qingshan rode a cloud and charged toward Cao Gan. Capture the leader first. So what if he was a tenth layer Qi Practitioner?
The city walls could stop ordinary people, but how could they stop cultivators? The barbican was just a joke.
Clang! The strings of the guqin vibrated.
"Now's the time!" A cold glint flashed in the man's eyes. Many archers on the four sides of the city walls stretched out their battlements. Their bows were released and the triggers were pulled.
With a buzzing sound, the sky was filled with arrows, covering the sun.
At the same time, the sound of gears turning came from the twelve arrow towers. There wasn't a single archer in the towers. Instead, there were huge black crossbows engraved in the shape of a dragon. The eyes of the dragon flashed, and the crossbows automatically adjusted their direction, accurately locking onto Li Qingshan in the air. The dragon opened its mouth and shot out spear-like arrows.
Huge arrows shot out of the dragon quiver one after another like the breath of a huge dragon.
The Mohist Mechanical Crossbows could kill enemies from a thousand steps away. Every one of them was worth more than a high-grade spirit artifact. The custom-made Cloud Piercing Arrows specialized in breaking through protective spells and True Qi were also very valuable.
Even if ordinary people could afford it, they wouldn't be able to use it. With the two together, killing Qi Practitioners was like slaughtering dogs.
"Qingshan!" Han Qiongzhi drew her saber and stood up. Just as she was about to help, a cluster of arrows flew toward her. She swung her saber and slashed away the layers of arrows. The ground beside her was filled with arrows, but she could only watch as Li Qingshan was drowned by the rain of arrows.
"This isn't a test. It's killing!"
Li Qingshan muttered and dodged to the side. He conveniently grabbed a Cloud Piercing Arrow that brushed past him and swung it horizontally, knocking away a few Cloud Piercing Arrows with a series of crackles. He danced around flawlessly as he rushed into the air. (To be continued)
