Just as Military Kill Ripper was about to kill Xiao He, an arrow pierced through the air.
"Pfft!"
The arrow accurately hit Military Kill Ripper's head, and blood splattered everywhere. It was a fatal arrow.
"Ugh!"
Military Kill Ripper's movements paused. Just as the spear in his hand was about to reach Xiao He, it fell powerlessly to the ground.
"Clang!" Military Kill Ripper failed on the verge of success.
At the last moment, Xiao He walked out of the Gates of Hell.
It was Zhou Bo who saved Xiao He at the last moment.
Among the generals of the Pei Public Army, Zhou Bo was the most adept at archery. Seeing that it was too late to save Xiao He, Zhou Bo drew his bow and shot Military Kill Ripper.
Military Kill Ripper turned into a streak of white light and disappeared. Along with him, the rest of Military Kill Ripper, including Hua Xiong, were teleported out of the map.
By saving Xiao He, Zhou Bo also pushed the Pei Public Army to the brink of destruction. With the retreat of Military Kill Ripper, the remaining soldiers were no match for Shanhai City's army.
In less than half an hour, the entire battlefield returned to peace.
The remaining soldiers either surrendered or were killed. Army Kill Ripper's two allies were also unable to escape, and they had to bid farewell to the Battle of Giant Deer.
Although Military Kill Ripper had failed, he was not stupid.
Just a little bit more and he would have succeeded!
If Xiao He had been killed at the last moment, Ouyang Shuo wouldn't have had time to cry. Moreover, Military Kill Ripper did not return empty-handed. The two General Souls dropped by Fan Kuai and Lu Wan were also valuable.
After this incident, Ouyang Shuo no longer dared to be blindly confident.
Don't ever look down on anyone in the world, even if they are defeated by you.
Seeing that the situation was hopeless, Cao Can, Zhou Bo, Xiahou Ying, and the other generals could only surrender obediently.
The only exception was Liu Bang.
At this moment, Liu Bang had completely lost his mind. However, Liu Bang's current combat strength was extremely terrifying. Even Ouyang Shuo was not confident that he could take Liu Bang down.
Fortunately, Ouyang Shuo still had a trump card.
Liu Bang's killing intent was almost tangible, and the crimson dragon coiled around his body became even more demonic.
There was no one within ten meters of him.
Holding the Sky Demon Spear, Ouyang Shuo slowly walked into the circle.
Whether it was the Featherwood Guard or the Pei Public Army, everyone looked at Ouyang Shuo nervously.
Feng Qiuhuang's eyes flashed with a trace of anxiety.
The strange poison in Ouyang Shuo's body was only temporarily suppressed, it had not been completely eradicated. Feng Qiuhuang was worried that Ouyang Shuo wouldn't be able to use force.
Especially when facing such an opponent.
Ouyang Shuo had never thought of fighting Liu Bang head-on. He slowly walked up to Liu Bang, raised his head, and stared at the red dragon that was baring its fangs and brandishing its claws.
Crimson Dragon seemed to sense something and turned to look at Ouyang Shuo as well.
"Chi ~ ~"
When Red Dragon saw Ouyang Shuo, he became even more insolent.
The corners of Ouyang Shuo's mouth curled into a sneer when he saw the crimson dragon provoking him, and he took out the Golden Qilin Seal. In an instant, a vast emperor's aura rushed toward the crimson dragon.
"Ang ~ ~"
At the sight of the Golden Qilin Seal, a trace of fear flashed across the red dragon's arrogant eyes.
The aura of an emperor was the nemesis of all evil.
The characteristic of the Golden Qilin Seal was that it could restrain all kinds of evil things.
[Demon Suppression and Exorcism]: Untainted by all evils, all demons give way.
A ray of golden light shot out from the golden seal and instantly shot into the crimson dragon.
"Roar ~ ~"
The crimson dragon couldn't dodge at all, and it let out a painful howl.
The golden light burst out of the crimson dragon's body, and the evil power melted at a speed visible to the naked eye. The red color faded, and the crimson dragon slowly returned to normal.
It looked up at Liu Bang, and unexpectedly, without any reluctance, broke out of its body, and ran straight toward Ouyang Shuo.
It seemed that the crimson dragon wanted to change its master.
It sensed the surging emperor's aura in Ouyang Shuo's body.
Raising a dragon with one's fate was the right way.
Seeing this, Ouyang Shuo sneered.
Ouyang Shuo didn't like the crimson dragon at all.
Just as the crimson dragon was about to enter his body, Ouyang Shuo suddenly aimed the Golden Qilin Seal at the crimson dragon. A strong suction was generated from the golden seal, and the crimson dragon's dragon soul was pulled into the golden seal.
"Roar ~ ~"
The crimson dragon was stunned, and then it let out a reluctant roar. Its illusory body was sucked into the golden seal bit by bit, and finally disappeared.
Seeing this, the onlookers couldn't help but be shocked.
They didn't expect that Ouyang Shuo could easily subdue such a weird True Dragon's soul. What was more surprising was that Ouyang Shuo turned a blind eye to the True Dragon's possession that other people dreamed of.
The Featherwood Guards, on the other hand, had looks of admiration on their faces.
Ouyang Shuo didn't pay attention to the clamor outside. He looked at the Golden Qilin Seal and saw a small crimson dragon wandering inside the golden seal.
Seeing this, Ouyang Shuo nodded with satisfaction.
To unseal the Golden Qilin Seal, he needed the Qilin's soul. Therefore. The crimson dragon's dragon soul didn't have much effect on the golden seal. Ouyang Shuo had other plans for this dragon soul, and he just temporarily stored it in the golden seal.
Ouyang Shuo raised his head and looked at Liu Bang opposite him.
When the crimson dragon left his body, Liu Bang seemed to have aged more than ten years in an instant. His whole person seemed to have aged a lot. His spirit, Qi, and spirit had dropped by a large margin.
Xiao He looked up and found that his master's face had become obscure.
The previous emperor's face had become blurred.
Seeing this, Xiao He let out a long sigh.
After the crimson dragon left his body, Liu Bang gradually came to his senses, and the redness in his eyes faded. Before, although he was unconscious, he still knew what was happening around him.
After he came to his senses, he was even more confused.
"Duke Pei!"
Liu Bang turned his head and looked at Ouyang Shuo.
"You lost!"
Hearing this, Liu Bang smiled sadly, looked at the captured Duke Pei, and said indifferently, "The winner takes all. I've lost. You can do whatever you want to me."
After waking up, Liu Bang still had his pride.
Ouyang Shuo nodded and inadvertently looked at the Red Night Sword in Liu Bang's hand. At this time, he was really embarrassed to take the sword in person. It was too embarrassing.
Fortunately, Wang Feng was very discerning.
Wang Feng stepped forward and took the Red Night Sword from Liu Bang's hand.
"You can go!"
Ouyang Shuo waved his hand and let Liu Bang leave.
"Humph!"
Liu Bang didn't care. He grabbed a warhorse and left without looking back. As for Xiao He and the others, Liu Bang knew that there was nothing he could do.
Watching their master leave, Xiao He and the others had complicated expressions.
Among the generals, Fan Kuai and Lu Wan were the most loyal to Liu Bang. They were childhood playmates. Xiao He, Cao Can, Xiahou Ying, Zhou Bo, and the others basically became friends with Liu Bang because of his character.
After such a scene, their hearts were already wavering.
Was the current Liu Bang still worthy of their loyalty?
Perhaps!
Ouyang Shuo didn't give them time to think. He had to subdue all four of them. He called Bai Hua and Feng Qiuhuang together.
"Each of you pick one of the four!"
Along the way, the elite troops of the two of them had also made great achievements in battle. Without these one thousand elites, just the three thousand Featherwood Guards would be a bit uncertain.
Therefore, Bai Hua and Feng Qiuhuang naturally had the right to divide the spoils.
"Pick any one of them?"
"Pick any one of them!"
Feng Qiuhuang said mockingly, "Then I want Xiao He!"
"Ugh!" Ouyang Shuo's expression was awkward.
"Ha, you've exposed yourself!"
Feng Qiuhuang laughed and shook her head. Bai Hua also rolled her eyes at Ouyang Shuo. The two girls were smart and knew that Ouyang Shuo's trip was for Xiao He.
They also knew their own limits and naturally wouldn't be 'ungrateful'. Ouyang Shuo was already grateful enough that he brought them out. How could he be so insatiable?
Among the four, Xiao He was naturally the best. He alone was equivalent to ten people.
Apart from that, Cao Can and Zhou Bo were slightly stronger than Xiahou Ying.
In the end, Bai Hua chose Cao Can, while Feng Qiuhuang chose Zhou Bo.
Cao Can and Zhou Bo were evenly matched in strength. They were both skilled in both literature and martial arts.
Both of them eventually became Prime Ministers.
In comparison, Cao Can was more literate, while Zhou Bo was more martial.
Bai Hua's Lingxi City had Zhang Liao overseeing it and needed a civil official to carry it.
Previously, Lingxi Workshop had been managing guilds and was innately lacking when it came to managing territories. Cao Can was undoubtedly the most suitable for Lingxi City.
In Feng Qiuhuang's Fallen Phoenix City, although Wang Bei was also a fierce general, his aptitude was slightly lacking. Therefore, compared to Cao Can, Zhou Bo was more suitable for Fallen Phoenix City.
In terms of managing territories, Feng Qiuhuang was better than Bai Hua.
Xiao He and Xiahou Ying were naturally taken away by Ouyang Shuo.
As for the four's wishes?
They were all captives. What was there to be unwilling about?
Even if they were unwilling, they had to settle down in their territories.
Returning to the main map, as long as it wasn't a monster like Jiang Shang, there wouldn't be any problems.
This was also the reason why Ouyang Shuo let Liu Bang go.
This time, Ouyang Shuo didn't arrange for Wang Feng to kill Liu Bang to earn extra contribution points. With his current status, he should be more generous in handling matters.
Now that he thought about it, killing King Wu of Zhou, Ji Fa, was a little petty.
Otherwise, it wouldn't have left a knot in Jiang Shang's heart.
After packing up, Ouyang Shuo immediately gave the order for the entire army to return to the Giant Deer Battlefield at full speed. After being out for so long, how was the Battle of Giant Deer going?
With Xiangyu's ability, he definitely wouldn't admit defeat obediently.
Needless to say, the Giant Deer Battlefield was currently filled with the flames of war.
Just the thought of an army of one or two million killing each other was enough to make one's heart tremble.
In comparison, the battle outside Su County City paled in comparison.
Thinking of this, Ouyang Shuo didn't even enter Su County before he hurriedly led his troops away.
Hopefully, they would make it in time for the final battle.
On the way, Ouyang Shuo checked Xiao He and Xiahou Ying's attributes.
[Name]: Xiao He (God Tier)
[Title]: One of the ten great Prime Ministers in history
[Dynasty]: Western Han
[Identity]: Shanhai City Official
[Occupation]: Civil Official

[Evaluation]: Xiao He is a civil official, gentle but harmless. Assisting King Xing, raising the entire clan. Defending Guanzhong, losing is a lie. The Han army is tired, the Qin army will come. The treaty can be long, the map can be big. Pointing out the traces of the beasts is the most effective. Governing a painting, the residence is not peaceful. Continuing to favor diligently, the style is to sharpen the belt.
Shanhai City finally had a proper Prime Minister. However, it was not an easy task to gain Xiao He's loyalty.
Other than Liu Bang, the one who suffered the most in this battle was Xiao He.
Xiao He's loyalty was only 60 points, which was just a passing grade.
[Name]: Xiahou Ying (King Tier)
[Dynasty]: Western Han
[Identity]: General of Shanhai City
[Occupation]: High-level General
[Loyalty]: 65
[Commander]: 68 [Martial Strength]: 80 [Intelligence]: 50 [Politics]: 35
[Specialty]: Military Carriage (Increases marching speed by 20), Tai Pu (Increases territory's animal husbandry by 10)
[Cultivation Technique]: None
[Equipment]: Heavy Sword
[Evaluation]: It's as bright as the sun, and it's abundant. Rong Xuan arrived, He Ce came to support. The horse was in danger, not letting go of the tree. When the time came for the crown prince, Ping City had a plan.
Not only was Xiahou Ying famous, but his descendants were also very famous. During the Three Kingdoms period, Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan, and other famous generals were all descendants of Xiahou Ying.
Ouyang Shuo couldn't find out if Baihua and Feng Qiuhuang really didn't know about this period of history, or if they were pretending not to choose Xiahou Ying. (To be continued.)
