"Hualala!"
There was a whistling sound in the air, and the layers of red mist were blown over. It was like a sandstorm, constantly spinning in the surroundings. The huge wind kept pulling Gu Zheng's body.
Gu Zheng squinted his eyes. His eyes were flashing, but he couldn't see through the red mist. He could only feel the surging Spiritual Qi around him. The interference of his Divine Sense was so great that he couldn't see beyond a few feet. It was better to see further with his eyes.
"You've caused the death of all my subordinates! Unforgivable! Unforgivable! "At this moment, the general's mad roar suddenly sounded in his ears.
The black-armored general appeared once again in a place extremely far away, walking over leisurely. His berserk killing intent locked onto Gu Zheng.
There was no trace of injury on his body.
Thinking of those voices that had been echoing all the time and how the shouts had all disappeared when the blood waves had exploded, Gu Zheng seemed to have understood something.
"Why did they turn into ashes? It's all because they followed you. That's why they ended up like this. Aren't you afraid of offending the heavens? In the past, if they didn't reincarnate, they would have to suffer the pain of thousands of stabs. You have committed grave sins. One day, you will die without a burial ground, "Gu Zheng shouted at the general.
"What do you know? They are waiting for me to lead them back to our hometown. We will kill all the enemies who killed us. It's all your fault. Unforgivable!"
The general's eyes were red. A violent aura kept surging from his body. The spirit inscriptions on the long black saber in his hand flashed. Layers of black runes flowed on the saber. He strode towards Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng snorted. He didn't want to argue with the general. He wanted to rush over. This time, he finally showed his true body. He couldn't let the general go.
However, just as he was about to move, he found that his legs were tight. He couldn't lift his feet. It was as if his whole body was fixed in place.
He looked down and saw that under his legs, there was blood on the outside of his body. It had turned into blood crystals and was firmly attached to his body.
After Gu Zheng discovered it, blood stains appeared on his body. The red mist outside started to rush towards Gu Zheng. Layers of red crystals quickly appeared on his body. Soon, other than his head, his entire body was covered with red crystals. He couldn't move at all.
Gu Zheng tried his best to break free, but he found that the crystals were abnormally tough. He was afraid he would not be able to break free for a while. With a thought, his body emitted balls of fire, which kept melting the red crystals.
Sensing that the blood crystal was melting, Gu Zheng felt that he should buy some time, so he said to the other party.
"You think you know it well, but you don't. Every one of them was a warrior with a clear conscience. But have you ever thought about it? Is it your wish or theirs to return home? They are already dead. Why are you still suppressing it? Just because you were once a general? Even if they died, they would still continue to fight for you! "
"What do you know? That is the wish of all of us. All of the soldiers are supporting me. How do you know what they are thinking?" The general suddenly stopped and gritted his teeth.
"That's just your wish. That's what you've forced into them. However, these soldiers are still willing to follow you despite knowing that. I have to say that you were once a great general. You made so many of your subordinates follow you willingly and fearlessly. But now, for your own wish, look at what you've done! Is it something you should do to those people that you have imprisoned? "Gu Zheng saw that the other party's mind was actually wavering, and a trace of confusion came out of his mouth.
"Impossible, impossible!" The general's eyes were filled with confusion. He looked at Gu Zheng and kept muttering. He was struggling in his heart.
"If you don't believe me, then ask your soldiers yourself. What do they mean?" Gu Zheng did not expect the general's mind to break down like this because of the death of his subordinates. He only affected him a little and the general fell for it.
He could already feel the red crystal loosening. He forced his hand to move a little inside. A golden light spread out silently.
Blurry figures rose from the side. Their faces could not be seen clearly, but looking at their bodies, they were all warriors with various weapons.
As soon as they appeared, they immediately attracted the attention of the general.
"Is that really what you think?"
"General, my wish is the same as yours. I want to kill my way back!"
One of the figures suddenly spoke, which shocked the general. However, before he could say anything, the next person spoke, which made him feel gloomy.
"General, I am already dead. I have no more requests. But the general's wish is my wish. I am willing to accompany the general!"
"General, my family is all dead. I want to go down and accompany them. Maybe I can meet them again in my next life."
"General, I am so tired. It has been so many years. All of my family is dead. I just want to live a quiet life."
"General, I am sorry …"
The figures spoke one by one. Other than a few who insisted on supporting the general, the others had more or less chosen to let go.
"No, no. What about the revenge we agreed on? We agreed that it would continue forever, "the general muttered to himself. His eyes were filled with disbelief.
"Don't you know? You have left the battlefield for so many years. Even the enemy is dead. You have to let go of your obsession. If you did not force them, they might have been reincarnated many times. The pain of the past would have passed. "The flames on Gu Zheng's body rose again. Many fine cracks appeared on the surface of the red crystal.
"I am the one who harmed them. It is me. It is all my fault!" Suddenly, the general thought of something and blamed himself. He could not hold the weapon in his hand and it fell from his hand.
At this time, Gu Zheng broke free from the red crystal and walked straight to his position. He spoke to the general as he walked.
"Since it's your fault, then stand up and leave with you. What's the difference between your previous actions and those of your previous enemies?"
"Yes, in the end, I have become the person I hate the most." The general's face was indifferent. His eyes were recalling his past actions. He had unknowingly forgotten his original intention.
He stretched out his hand and the black saber from before appeared in his hand again. However, this time, he aimed the black saber and sword at his heart.
"I am the one who deserves to die. I have implicated the warrior. I did not let him live in peace. I am sorry!"
After saying the last sentence, the general stabbed the sword in his hand into his chest.
"Puchi!"
The general's body stiffened and fell to the ground. In mid-air, the general looked at the scene that flashed past. He seemed to have seen the moment when he was defeated. He muttered to himself.
"The country is broken. The mountains and rivers are broken. I am sorry. I have failed to live up to the title of general."
Thus, before the general could even land on the ground, he was already dead.
Gu Zheng looked at the surrounding black fog slowly dissipating. He looked at the general below and waved his hand. Soon, a simple tomb appeared.
There was also an inscription on top of the stone tablet.
"Tomb of the Nameless General."
After doing all this, Gu Zheng rose up. After identifying the direction, he flew towards the location of the battle.
To be honest, he did not expect the general to fall into a trap so easily. It turned out that those who were fighting with him were the heroic souls of the warriors around him. No wonder he fell into a state of madness after being eliminated by the black lightning.
However, the most frightening thing was that the general's heart was already wavering. He only added a little illusion to expose the mistakes that the general did not dare to admit.
The general was indeed powerful, but he still could not overcome the knot in his heart.
At the moment when the general died, Lieutenant Miao, who was fighting crazily, also felt something. He forced the people who surrounded him to retreat. He looked around in a daze. It seemed that the surroundings had become a little blurry.
The current situation was a little disadvantageous for them. Because after Starry Sky chased after the Star Ardent Bamboo, some people's hearts were shaken. They thought that two of them had escaped.
In terms of loyalty, there was a limit to the loyalty of this alliance. Soon after, some people were injured. When they saw that things were not going well, they also fled.
If you want them to work for the alliance, there was no need to think too much. They did not care if their lives were in danger.
However, Lieutenant Miao kept encouraging them. He told them that as long as they held on until the general came back, victory would be in sight. They knew how powerful the general was, which was why they continued to persevere.
"The general is dead. The general is actually dead!" Lieutenant Miao's eyes actually flowed with tears of blood. He could not believe that the general would be killed by someone alone. He worshipped the general very much. He even followed the general back then because his cultivation was higher than the general's.
"The general is dead. Then all of this is just an illusion!"
It was as if thousands of burdens had been put down. Lieutenant Miao suddenly lost his goal. He had always followed the general and did whatever the general wanted to do.
Looking at the enemies surrounding him, the murderous intent once again woke him up from his stupor.
"The general is dead. Since we can't take revenge, I am still here. I want to leave this place and use my life to protect the general's last wish. I cannot die!" Lieutenant Miao muttered to himself.
Suddenly, a strong aura burst out from his body, which stunned the people surrounding him. Taking this opportunity, Lieutenant Miao quickly rose into the air and escaped outside.
Everyone could imagine that Lieutenant Miao, who was fighting with all his might a moment ago, would escape without any warning. It was only when his figure completely disappeared into the air that the people surrounding him reacted.
"Don't chase after him. Let those who escaped stay if you can. If you can't, let them go!" He Sheng was at the side. When he saw this scene, he immediately flew over and stopped the people who wanted to chase after him.
Everyone saw Lieutenant Miao escape. To those people, the shock it caused was no less than a magnitude 9 earthquake. Even the main character had escaped, so what was the point of staying here?
Instantly, some of the more quick-witted people pretended that they were going to risk their lives to scare their opponents. When they defended themselves, they immediately took the opportunity to escape outside.
In just an instant, at least half of the people flew into the air. In the blink of an eye, they left in all directions. These people did not know whether to chase after them or not.
After a slight delay, they lost sight of the other party.
Fortunately, at this moment, He Sheng's shout rang out. He asked everyone to deal with the remaining people and not chase after those who escaped.
The remaining people were in trouble because they did not escape in time. This time, each of them had to face at least two to three people. Even if they wanted to be like them, they did not have the chance.
When Gu Zheng returned, the battle had already ended. Everyone on the other side was trembling in fear. The strength they displayed was even worse than before. They were defeated very quickly.
"You guys are so powerful. You actually finished off the other side!" Gu Zheng said in surprise when he saw everyone beaming with joy. Some of the captives who surrendered in time to save their lives had their cultivation sealed and were imprisoned at the side.
On the other side, other than those who were injured and recuperating, everyone was talking about something excitedly at the side.
"Young Master Gu, congratulations on your victory. If it wasn't for your victory, we wouldn't have won so quickly!" He Sheng, who had been smiling since the victory, quickly came up to Gu Zheng and briefly explained what happened. Only then did Gu Zheng come to a realization.
Fortunately, Gu Zheng had rushed over in a hurry, fearing that there would be some accidents.
"By the way, how much did we lose?" Gu Zheng glanced down and asked.
"Just now, I asked Chi Wen to do the statistics. After all, I don't know those newcomers. But on our side, one of Young Master Xing Xing's subordinates died and two were injured. The others more or less suffered some injuries. Only Miss Zi Yi suffered some serious injuries, but they are not life-threatening." He Sheng thought for a moment and said.
"It's a pity. Where is Young Master Xing Xing? I want to apologize to him!" Gu Zheng felt a little relieved. At least their people did not die. It was just that they felt sorry for Young Master Xing Xing.
"Young Master Xing Xing has left here. He was chasing after an enemy. He said that his people should stay here and wait for him to come back." Chi Wen came over and immediately said after hearing the news.
"I see." Gu Zheng nodded and then said to Chi Wen with a smile, "This time, you really did a great job. Otherwise, we wouldn't be so relaxed."
Gu Zheng had originally planned to fight to the end, but he did not expect Chi Wen's plan to be so perfect.
"This is what I should do. If Senior Gu did not save my life again, my soul would have already returned to him!" Chi Wen said modestly without any pride.
"By the way, Senior Gu, the losses this time were not small. Nearly ten people died, and many others were seriously injured." Chi Wen suddenly remembered and hurriedly said to Gu Zheng.
"When I went to check on them just now, they suddenly asked me two questions. First, they asked if I could give them some medicine for their injuries. To be honest, they were all searched clean. The second question was that they wanted to leave this place after treating their injuries."
"No problem at all. Later, I will ask He Sheng to send it to them. As for leaving, they are free to leave at any time. Moreover, they helped us this time. We can't thank them enough." Gu Zheng said. Finally, he pondered for a moment before continuing.
"How about this? When they leave, I will prepare something for them to thank them."
Although they were using each other and won the situation, they displayed a spirit that was truly unafraid of death. Most of the pressure was on their side. Otherwise, so many people would not have died.
This was under the condition that they had almost no weapons or treasures on them.
"I thank Senior Gu on their behalf!" In these short few days of contact, they had become familiar with each other. They immediately thanked Gu Zheng.
"After arranging things, send someone to inform the villagers to stay in the village. Be careful not to disturb the people. I will go to the village in front now and install our flag. This place that originally belonged to us is back!" Gu Zheng instructed He Sheng beside him.
He Sheng suppressed the excitement in his heart and immediately nodded in agreement. Then, he retreated and arranged for people to do it.
Gu Zheng looked at Qing Xuan and the others who were healing at the side. After saying a few words to them, he flew to the village in the distance.
When Gu Zheng arrived there, the whole village had already been occupied by their soldiers. At every intersection, there were soldiers stationed there. Some people who were originally here were all hiding in their houses.
As soon as Gu Zheng appeared, his two disciples immediately came up from below to greet him. Hai Ming shouted loudly from far away.
"Master!"
"Why are you being so loud? Didn't I tell you to be careful?" Gu Zheng scolded when he got closer.
"I was wrong, master. I won't dare to do it again!" Hai Ming pretended to be pitiful and said, "The mission you gave us was too simple. There's no one in this village who can fight. After we arrived, we only needed to threaten them a little, and they surrendered directly! I haven't done anything yet. "
"Of course. This is not an encampment in the first place. There isn't even a statue here. If it weren't for the fact that this place is in the middle of the encampment, where there are more wandering Joss Flames, you might not even be able to meet a single opponent," Gu Zheng said snappily.
Now, Hai Ming and Ren Ling had begun to lead the whole team. Hai Ming was in charge of the Fairy Immortal stage, and Ren Ling was in charge of the lower stage. Anyway, no one dared to oppose them. It could be regarded as an indirect training.
"Master, we have searched here before, but we didn't find the core of this place. It seems to be hidden!" Ren Ling said.
Under normal circumstances, in a new territory, Gu Zheng could put the flag anywhere. But in this territory, there was an excellent place. Only when the flag was placed there could the flag play its greatest role.
In the same way, at that time, the statue could only play its greatest role in the right place.
In a place like this where the territory had been solidified, the position had already been fixed. As long as the original flag was inserted, the territory would naturally return to the territory of Xifeng Village in an instant.
If you inserted the flag in the wrong place, or inserted the flag of another village, then sorry, the place was still a place and the flag couldn't be activated at all.
So they needed to find the original place.
This was what the person in charge of issuing the land told them.
Originally, he let Hai Ming and the others come in early to find the place. The result was that it was hidden, which was really beyond Gu Zheng's expectation.
"Let's go. I want to see where the other party can hide."
Gu Zheng led the two of them to the periphery and walked inside.
