East Fu Army Camp, Central Army Tent!
A communications officer hurriedly ran over, looking slightly panicked. He knelt down in the camp and reported to Commander Watanabe Bo.
"Commander, we lost contact with the Mighty Team led by Liuchuan Wu. After investigation, the Mighty Team was annihilated in the mountains around 30 miles north of Wanhe Town."
In the central tent, Commander Watanabe Bo, as well as many high-ranking generals, were shocked when they heard this.
Liuchuan Wu was a late-stage Ninth Level Martial Grandmaster. Even if he encountered a Half-step Martial Saint, even if he was not a match for him, he still had the hope of escaping. Unless they were surrounded by many experts, or a Martial Saint intervened, how could the entire Mighty Team be wiped out?
Every Liuchuan was a high-ranking officer in the army. Every death of one was a huge loss. In Watanabe Bo's view, even if they massacred 100 towns, they would not gain any substantial benefits. It was not as precious as a Liuchuan's life.
Their purpose of massacring the towns was to force the Luo Xing Kingdom's army to stop defending East Mountain City and send out small teams to fight with them. This way, the Luo Xing Kingdom's army would lose the advantage of defending the city.
In order to ensure the survival of each team, there should be at least one Martial Dao Realm Liuchuan. Even if they encountered a Half-step Martial Sage, they should have the ability to escape. It was unlikely for the entire team to be annihilated.
Moreover, the Luoxing Kingdom's army had to guard the Eastern Mountain City to prevent the Dong Fu Kingdom's army from attacking the city. It was unlikely for a Half-Step Martial Sage to leave the Eastern Mountain City so that he could rush back in time when the city was attacked.
After all, East Mountain City was the place that the Luo Xing Kingdom's army needed to defend. If East Mountain City was captured, the East Fu Army would be able to march straight into Purple Mountain Prefecture and wipe out all four sides.
"Bastard! How did they die? Who killed them? "
Before Watanabe Bo could speak, Liuchuan Ji had already roared in anger.
Liuchuan Wu was Liuchuan Ji's right-hand man. One of the five Liuchuan Legion's Liuchuan Legion was killed by Ye Xing during the siege. Now, another one had fallen. Almost half of them were dead.
The communications officer said, "According to our investigation, Liuchuan Wu was killed by an arrow through his throat. In addition, one Chiliarch, two Centurions, and several fifth and sixth level martial artists were killed by an arrow through their throats."
An arrow through the throat?
Everyone immediately thought of the archer who had killed dozens of generals of the Liuchuan Legion and Dongxuan Legion – Ye Xing.
"It's this little bastard who killed him again!"
Watanabe Hiroshi roared, the defeat of the East Fu Army was all because of Ye Xing.
If it were not for Ye Xing, the East Fu Army would not have suffered such a loss, whether it was a duel or a siege.
Besides, the Dongfu Emperor's grandson, Young Master Jinshan, had also died in Ye Xing's hands. Watanabe Bo hated Ye Xing to the core. Now that he knew that the annihilation of Liuchuan Wu's Wuwei Squad was related to Ye Xing, how could Watanabe Bo hold back his anger? Of course, he was enraged.
Liuchuan Ji was similarly enraged. "It's this bastard Ye again! Damn bastard! I can't wait to skin him alive and eat his flesh to vent the hatred in my heart. "
"How could this bastard Ye's archery skill kill Liuchuan Wu? Liuchuan Wu was a ninth-level late stage grandmaster! "
Dongxuan Heng, the Dongxuan Legion's commander, regained some rationality amidst his rage. He immediately realized that Ye Xing's archery skill did not seem to be that powerful.
However, no one could answer this question. Other than Ye Xing, who else in Luoxing's army had such archery skill?
If there was, that person's archery skill would be even better than Ye Xing's. It was impossible that it did not show during the siege. More generals of the East Fu Army would have fallen.
Then, it could only be Ye Xing. This could only mean that Ye Xing's archery skill had improved again and his ability had improved greatly.
…
A few days later, in the East Fu Army's camp, a communications officer reported another piece of military news with a similarly panicked expression.
"Marshal, we lost contact with the magnificent squad led by Captain Zi Chuanhong. After investigation, the squad was completely annihilated outside Qianshan Town. Captain Zi Chuanhong was killed by an arrow through his throat. Captain Zi Chuanyan, Centurions Zi Chuanguang and Zi Chuanlang were also killed by an arrow through their throats!"
"He's dead!"
"Bastard!"
…
A few days later, at the same location, the same communications officer, but his expression was even more panicked than before. He reported a very similar piece of military news.
"Marshal, we lost contact with the Wudi squad led by Captain Di of West Wind. After investigation, the Wudi squad was completely annihilated in the mountains forty miles south of Qingyuan Town. Captain Di was killed by an arrow through his throat. Many of the other squad members were also killed by an arrow through their throats …"
In less than ten days, the third squad had been completely annihilated. Three Captains, six Chiliarchs, and twelve Centurions had lost their lives. Dozens of Level 5 and Level 6 martial artists had also fallen. This was a huge loss for the Dong Fu Kingdom's army.
Among these fallen soldiers, at least half of them were killed by an arrow through their throats. Therefore, Watanabe Hiroshi and the others hated Ye Xing to the extreme.
Slap — —
Watanabe Hiroshi slammed his palm down. The marshal's table in front of him was almost smashed by him. He said angrily, "If we don't get rid of that bastard Ye, our East Fu Army will be defeated sooner or later. No matter what method we use, we must kill this bastard, kill this bastard — —!"
The communications officer's body trembled under Watanabe Hiroshi's roar. He said, "Marshal, there is another good news. The spies we have arranged in the enemy's army have found out Ye Xing's background."
Watanabe Hiroshi's eyes lit up. "Speak."
The communications officer said, "Ye Xing is a new student of Zishan Academy. He is sixteen years old this year. He is from Qingye Town in Tiancang City of Zishan Prefecture. His birthplace is Qingye Town, which is about one hundred and forty miles northeast of Dongshan City. His parents and clansmen are all in Qingye Town."
"Good! This time, we must make that bastard die without a burial place! "
Watanabe Hiroshi's face revealed a rare happy expression. He said, "Send a message to Vice Legion Commander Ryugawa Taka. Tell him to lead Team Ambitious and Ruthless to Qingye Town. At the same time, find a way to let that bastard Ye know that Qingye Town is under attack. Let him walk into the trap."
Team Ambitious and Ruthless led by Ryugawa Taka is the strongest team that infiltrated Dongshan City. It is also the only team led by a Half-Step Martial Saint.
This time, the East Futian Army was determined to kill Ye Xing. Watanabe Hiroshi did not believe that Ye Xing, who was only at the seventh level of the Martial Path, could pose a threat to a half-step Martial Sage with his archery skills.
"Bastard Ye, this time you will definitely die!" Watanabe Hiroshi said in his heart.
The communications officer retreated. About an hour later, a huge black eagle descended from the sky and landed in front of the East Fu Army's camp.
On the back of the black eagle, there is a middle-aged man who is close to forty years old. Behind him, there is a faint shadow.
The middle-aged man's aura surged, far surpassing that of a Ninth Great Master or even a Half-Step Martial Saint. He sat on the back of the black eagle and glanced at Dongshan City before jumping down.
In Dongshan City, Zishan Hou suddenly sensed something and looked towards the east. He sensed the aura of a Martial Saint and it is a High-Rank Martial Saint.
In the camp, Watanabe Hiroshi and the others sensed the arrival of a guest and immediately rushed out. When they saw the middle-aged man, their expressions changed and they all knelt on the ground and bowed to him.
"Greetings to the Western Expedition Grand Marshal!"
It turns out that this person is the Western Expedition Grand Marshal of the East Fu Country's Million Strong Army, Watanabe Zhan, a High-Rank Martial Saint and the cousin of the East Fu Country's Ruler.
Watanabe Zhan snorted, his expression did not say anything. He directly entered the camp and sat on the Commander's seat.
Watanabe Hiroshi and the others quickly followed him and continued to kneel.
Watanabe Zhan said indifferently, "Watanabe Hiroshi, I pretended to be the main attacker in Chang 'an County and Nanshan County, attracting the main force of the Luoxing Army, causing Zishan County's military to be insufficient. Your four armies are the elite of the East Fu Country, but you actually suffered defeat in Dongshan City which has less than fifty thousand soldiers. You … really disappoint me."
Watanabe Hiroshi's face was full of bitterness. He said, "Grand Marshal, this is because …!"
Watanabe Zhan waved his hand and said, "You don't need to explain. I know the situation here better than you. A dignified junior, a new student, can actually defeat you time and time again. Shameful."
Watanabe Hiroshi said, "Grand Marshal, I have already found out Ye Xing's identity. This time, Rukawa Taka is waiting for him in Qingye Town. He must kill this little thief."
Watanabe Zhan snorted coldly and said, "That team of theirs has a total of five people, but you only investigated one. Trash! The most talented person in that team is not Ye Xing, but another girl called Wei Qingxuan. Both of them are from Tiancang City in Zishan County and are new students who entered Zishan Academy together. Wei Qingxuan was personally summoned by Zishan Hou on the second day of entering the academy. Compared to Ye Xing, she is more valued by Zishan Hou. Whether it is Ye Xing or Wei Qingxuan, they are both important people to Zishan Hou. How could they not have something to protect their lives? Do you really think a mere half-step Martial Saint can take their lives? "
Watanabe Hiroshi's expression changed. He said, "Then what should we do, Grand Marshal? I have already ordered someone to pass the order to Rukawa Taka. They are behind Dongshan City and it is inconvenient for us to communicate. Perhaps they have already gone to Qingye Town after receiving the order and will not receive our order in a short time."
Watanabe Zhan said, "Dongxuan Ying, go and kill all five of them."
"Yes! Grand Marshal! "
Behind Watanabe Zhan, a faint shadow flickered, and a voice came out.
Watanabe Hiroshi and the rest were shocked, not because there was another person behind Watanabe Zhan, but because …
Watanabe Zhan said in shock, "Grand Marshal, sending out a Martial Saint will cause a war between the sects. Is the sect preparing to go to war with the Falling Star Sect?"
Watanabe Zhan stood up and looked in the direction of Dongshan City. He said, "It is only killing Zishan Hou. Will it cause a war between the sects? As long as the Falling Star Sect dares, then let's fight … Sect Master has been waiting for this day for a long time. "
Watanabe Zhan's voice was filled with confidence.
In Dongshan City, Zishan Hou stood on top of a tall tower and looked at the East Fu army camp. Below the tower stood a giant eagle with purple flame-like feathers on its head.
