However, no matter how hard Yue Ji tried, his momentum was already gone. He was already powerless to do anything.
Caught in a pincer attack with nowhere to escape, Yueji was doomed to fail.
Even the Black Armour commander who had planned to head to the leader's quarters was shot down by Qin Liangyu.
Demons!
At this time, Yue Ji only felt that these people were simply devil-like existences!
Especially the generals in the lead. Their fighting strength was simply not on the same level as his men!
"You will regret this!"
"The leader will definitely find out about this. When that happens, you will have to prepare to face the wrath of the Qiang people!"
Yue Ji glared fiercely at Bai Feng and threw down these ruthless words.
With that, Bai Feng's Green Scythe fell.
Yue Ji's head was instantly chopped off. It fell to the ground and spun a few times before stopping.
"The leader? He doesn't need to come to me! "
Bai Feng smiled coldly as he looked around.
The Qiang soldiers around them had all been killed.
It was estimated that in less than two days, these soldiers would be completely wiped out.
"Sir, should we continue the pursuit?"
At this moment, Jiang Wei wiped off the beads of sweat on his face and said in a low voice.
Bai Feng shook his head.
"Let's retreat after we kill all these Qiang people.
"Now that the soldiers and horses are tired, let's go back to Western Liang and rest."
"Understood!"
Jiang Wei finally heaved a sigh of relief.
If they continued the pursuit, they might not be able to hold on.
If they continued like this, they would eventually fail.
Jiang Wei, who was well-versed in military books, knew this all too well. If they continued like this, they would most likely die without a proper burial ground.
This also meant that returning to Western Liang was the best course of action.
On the other hand, Bai Feng was not just thinking about the fatigue of the ordinary soldiers.
There was another point. In about ten minutes, the soldiers summoned by the book would disappear.
At that time, with just over ten thousand soldiers, it would be far from enough to fight the leader.
Moreover, other than Li Yuanhong and Yue Ji, there was still the most difficult commander to deal with.
His subordinates were not only the Qiang people, but also the Xiongnu.
The fighting prowess of the Xiongnu was innate, completely different from the Qiang people.
The Xiongnu were few in number, but Bai Feng had personally experienced their combat prowess.
Now, after the space-time reversal, many generals were able to break through the 100 mark.
If that was the case, dealing with these guys would be far more difficult than dealing with Li Yuanhong and Yue Ji's army.
…
After about four hours of marching, Bai Feng and the others returned to Western Liang City.
When they arrived at the city gate, the entire city was celebrating. The common people lined the streets to welcome them.
For a long time, they had been tortured by the Qiang people. Now that the Qiang people at the border of Western Liang had been destroyed, they were happy from the bottom of their hearts.
Moreover, the good days of Western Liang were getting better and better, and this was largely due to Bai Feng.
Thus, the common people loved and respected Bai Feng.
And Bai Feng suddenly noticed a familiar figure in the crowd.
"Zhang Ning?"
Bai Feng could not help but be slightly stunned. She immediately said to Jiang Wei beside her,
"Beuyo, have the soldiers rest first. I'll join you later."
With that, Bai Feng dismounted and headed to where Zhang Ning was.
Seeing this, Zhang Ning quietly left and brought Bai Feng to a secluded corner.
Because the common people had gone to welcome the army, not many people would come to this place.
"You're awake?"
Bai Feng smiled faintly.
He did not expect that Zhang Ning would wake up the day he set out.
If he had brought Zhang Ning along, it might have been more efficient.
Zhang Ning smiled bitterly.
"I didn't expect to be unconscious for so long."
Bai Feng could not help but frown slightly.
"Now, can you tell me what that black shadow is?"
"I'm afraid it's definitely not as simple as a book spirit, right?"
"To be able to steal one's soul and almost cause you to lose your life, what kind of evil thing is it?"
Zhang Ning shook his head.
"No, it's indeed a book spirit."
"It's just that for some reason, it's been corroded."
"Actually, I also find it very strange. Logically speaking, this shouldn't have happened."
"In short, it's completely changed now."
"I'm afraid it's no longer something you and I can control."
Bai Feng narrowed his eyes and looked at the Taiping Essential Spell in Zhang Ning's arms.
"How long can this spell keep it under control?"
Zhang Ning shook his head.
"It's hard to say."
"This spell can control it for a long time at first, but the time is getting shorter and shorter."
"This time, I'm afraid it'll only last for about a week."
"If it comes out again, its target will most likely be you."
"So, I'm here to bid you farewell."
With that, Bai Feng could not help but frown.
"Ridiculous!"
"You're carrying such an unstable thing alone. What if it has nowhere to go and directly devours your will?"
Zhang Ning smiled faintly.
"It's fine. It's a pity that I won't be able to see you destroy the entire Qiang tribe in my lifetime."
"If that's the case, I might feel more at ease when I leave."
Bai Feng narrowed his eyes and quietly looked at Zhang Ning.
At this moment, Bai Feng's heart was somewhat moved.
He did not expect that after backtracking in time, Zhang Ning's personality would not change at all.
Logically speaking, backtracking in time could change many things.
Moreover, he had already made earth-shattering changes to many things.
Bai Feng sighed softly.
"It's just a week. Simple."
"After a week, I will make this so-called Book Spirit cease to exist."
"So, you can rest here and recuperate in peace."
Zhang Ning was stunned at first, then frowned.
"Don't force yourself!"
"Although you've learned the illusion technique, you still have no chance of winning against this Book Spirit!"
"If you blindly force yourself and fall into its trap, I'm afraid …"
Bai Feng raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Who said that I don't have a way to counter it?"
"Don't worry, I have a brilliant plan."
"Moreover, if this Book Spirit is punished, the Taiping Technique should not have any devouring effect."
Hearing Bai Feng's words, Zhang Ning could only nod.
After all, Zhang Ning did not want to die. Moreover, Zhang Ning also wanted the Taiping Technique to return to its original state.
She still vaguely remembered that although forcefully using the Taiping Technique would cause damage to the body, it would not be like this.
After all, if one wanted to summon the heavenly lightning, they had to pay a corresponding price.
But it was not like this. Her internal organs and even meridians had been devoured by the thick black Qi.
However, Zhang Ning did not understand why Bai Feng was so confident.
