Spring was a season where everything was recovering. However, on the battlefield, everything was in a mess. It was incomparably desolate and bleak.
After the Barbarian Suppression Army returned victorious, the joy of victory had already turned into a gloomy and sorrowful mood. Too many people had died in the continuous battles. Seeing their comrades die one after another, how sad was their hearts?
They silently cleaned up the corpses on the battlefield, searching for the remains of their comrades. At the same time, they were also collecting the spoils of war from the battlefield.
Many generals also returned with the troops. They returned to the front of the seven frozen demon monarchs with greedy looks on their faces.
Among them, one of the old generals couldn't help but want to take the corpses of the Demon Kings for himself. He was prepared to send people to carry the Demon Kings back, but unfortunately, the surroundings of the Demon Kings were filled with extremely cold Qi. The few soldiers who were close to the Demon Kings quickly turned into corpses.
The old general swallowed his breath and said in panic: "Such a terrifying cold Qi!"
"You dare to touch my young master's spoils of war? You're courting death!" The Silver Patterned Turtle had been hiding in a corner the entire time. Ordinary people did not notice its existence. When it sensed that someone was targeting the Demon Kings, it rushed out, accompanied by an Overlord's Fist.
The power of the Overlord's Fist was not something that an ordinary King could withstand. Although the old general was a King, in front of this fist, he did not have any resistance at all and was ruthlessly sent flying.
Bang!
The old general was directly embedded into the mountain by the Silver Patterned Turtle, and a "human" shaped hole appeared on the mountain.
The sudden appearance of the Silver Patterned Turtle frightened all the generals.
Other than Fen Tianxiong and a few other higher-ups who returned to the barracks early, Feng Tisen was at the back, dealing with the post-battle matters.
After he sensed the movement, he quickly rushed over and scolded: "What kind of monster are you? How dare you be so impudent here."
"Where did this old thing come from? Do you also want to eat my Overlord's Fist?" The Silver Patterned Turtle transformed into its human form and scolded Feng Tisen.
The Silver Patterned Turtle had always been arrogant and unruly. Yang Wu had spent a lot of effort to make it submit, so it did not put Feng Tisen in its eyes.
"How dare you!" Feng Tisen shouted angrily. He drew his sword and attacked the Silver Patterned Turtle.
He didn't have a good impression of Yang Wu, even though Yang Wu was now in the limelight. Now that Yang Wu's mount dared to be so presumptuous in front of him, how could he swallow this anger?
"Old thing, watch out for my fist!" The Silver Patterned Tortoise shouted, and the Overlord Fist blasted out first.
Feng Tisen thought that the Silver Patterned Turtle was just punching. He blocked with his sword, but he realized that the Silver Patterned Turtle was just a feint. In fact, it was directly charging over. The turtle's back released silver patterns that quickly bound Feng Tisen.
The surrounding soldiers cried out in alarm when they saw this. They wanted to rescue Feng Tisen, but the Demon Qi released by the Silver Patterned Turtle was so powerful that they didn't dare to act rashly. They were also afraid that if they went too far, the Silver Patterned Turtle would kill Feng Tisen on the spot.
"Do you know who I am? Even Yang Wu has to respectfully call me General when he sees me. Hurry up and let me go." Feng Tisen was caught by the Silver Patterned Turtle, but he still shouted sternly.
Originally, Feng Tisen's combat strength wasn't weak. However, he had consumed a lot of energy in the continuous battles. He also suffered some injuries. The Silver Patterned Turtle's attack was too cunning, so he fell for it.
If he wasn't so careless when he was in his peak condition, he wouldn't have been taken down so easily by the Silver Patterned Turtle.
"I don't care who you are. Grandpa Turtle is going to kill you right now!" The Silver Patterned Turtle revealed a vicious expression as it spoke.
Immediately after, the Silver Patterned Turtle released a powerful binding force that wanted to twist Feng Tisen into a pool of blood on the spot.
The Silver Patterned Turtle wasn't a kind creature. If it said it would kill, it would really kill. It wouldn't show any mercy.
Only now did Feng Tisen truly feel the Silver Patterned Turtle's killing intent. This time, he really panicked.
"Bastard, that's enough!" Yang Wu's voice faintly rang out.
He quietly swept over from afar. If he was just a bit slower, Feng Tisen would have become a corpse.
When the Silver Patterned Turtle heard Yang Wu's voice, it quickly withdrew all of its silver patterned turtles and swept over to Yang Wu. It said fawningly, "Young Master, you've finally come. This guy had designs on the Daemon King. I had no choice but to retaliate against him."
The Silver Patterned Turtle really knew how to talk. It pushed all of the blame onto Feng Tisen.
Feng Tisen responded in a sorry state, "Nonsense. This General just can't stand seeing you randomly injure people. Yang Wu, you need to properly discipline your mount. It dares to go against its superior. It's really going against the heavens."
Yang Wu understood the Silver Patterned Turtle. This fellow was cunning and sinister, but it definitely wouldn't attack people for no reason. He calmly looked at Feng Tisen and said, "General Feng, this matter is my bastard's fault. You're a great person who doesn't hold a grudge against a lowly person. Let's just let this matter pass."
Yang Wu didn't want to bicker with Feng Tisen. It was considered giving him face.
However, Feng Tisen took advantage of his seniority and said, "No, it almost killed this old man. How can I let such a vicious monster live?"
"Alright, if you don't want to let it live, then you can kill it yourself. I don't mind." Yang Wu spread out his hands and said.
Then, he no longer paid attention to Feng Tisen and walked towards the Daemon Kings that he had frozen.
The Daemon Kings here were extremely valuable. Yang Wu planned to take them all back and auction them off in the King City. He would definitely be able to obtain a shocking amount of wealth.
These were his spoils of war.
Other than the Daemon Kings, there were also the items left behind by the Barbarian Kings that he had killed. They had all been secretly collected by Meng Bingxue for him. He wasn't worried about losing them at all.
"Come, come, old thing. Didn't you want to kill me? Young Master said that he would give you a chance. Let's fight again! "The Silver Patterned Turtle once again provoked Feng Tisen.
While it was talking, it didn't hold back against Feng Tisen. It continuously sent out a few Overlord Fists!
The Overlord Fists were not weak. It contained a certain rhythm that was difficult to grasp.
Feng Tisen had suffered at the hands of the Silver Patterned Turtle before, so he didn't dare to fight it again. He quickly retreated and said with a dark face, "Yang Wu, you've gone too far. I will definitely report this to the Marshal and let him make the decision."
Yang Wu didn't listen to Feng Tisen's words at all. He was thinking about how to take the Daemon Kings back.
Right now, his Yin and Yang Space wasn't small, but it was still a bit difficult for it to contain the seven Daemon Kings. He sighed and said, "If only Little Hei was here."
Without Little Hei by his side, he felt a bit uncomfortable and wasn't used to it. He had to learn that even without Little Hei by his side, he could still accomplish what he wanted to do. He couldn't always rely on Little Hei. This was also the reason why he wanted to refine pills.
Little Hei's origin was extraordinary. He didn't know when it would disappear, so he had to take this opportunity to master more skills.
Yang Wu reached out to absorb the cold air of the seven Daemon Kings. However, he didn't remove the ice crystals on their bodies. He let them continue to maintain their frozen state, not wanting their bodies to corrode.
In fact, the best way was to dissect them all and remove their most important parts. However, Yang Wu didn't think this way. He wanted to transport them back to King City like this. He wanted to play a big game. He wanted to announce to everyone in King City that "he, Yang Wu, is back!"
"Men, bring a few stone carts over. Bring these seven Daemon Kings back to the Death Legion." Yang Wu called out to the soldiers who were cleaning up the battlefield not far away.
Soon, dozens of people rushed over together.
"Commander Yang, don't worry. We promise to complete the mission."
"Yes, even if we have to climb a mountain of swords or plunge into a sea of fire, we will definitely do it for Sir Yang."
… …
These soldiers weren't from the Death Legion, but they looked at Yang Wu with eyes full of respect. They obeyed his orders without question.
"Yes, the ice crystals on their bodies won't melt. Most of the cold air has been absorbed by me. It won't affect you too much. You can rest assured." Yang Wu replied softly. After a pause, he took out a handful of pills and said, "Come, here are some healing pills. Everyone, take them and distribute them."
These soldiers were overjoyed. One by one, they took the healing pills from Yang Wu's hands.
They were more or less injured on the battlefield. They were ordinary soldiers. If they wanted to get the healing pills, they had to pay enough merit points. They wouldn't use the healing pills unless they had no other choice. They were extremely touched that Yang Wu was so generous to give it to them.
After Yang Wu settled this matter, he called the Silver Patterned Turtle and returned to the Death Legion. He wasn't worried that someone would have designs on his spoils of war.
In this war, the Death Legion still had the highest number of casualties. They were the ones who charged at the forefront.
Fortunately, they were trained again and again during the winter. Their strength had increased a lot. The death rate had decreased a lot compared to before.
This time, half of them had died, while the other half were still alive. Among them, half of the commanders had died, including Violent Dragon.
Violent Dragon was already a top-notch warlord. With his combat strength, he could even fight against a top-notch barbarian general. He was killed by the barbarian soldiers because he wanted to save people.
As for the powerless Lu Zhi, he didn't die. He was a civil official and had received an official document. He didn't need to charge and break through the enemy lines like the other soldiers of death. Otherwise, even if there were ten Lu Zhi on the battlefield, they would still die.
When Yang Wu returned to the Death Legion, he saw Lu Zhi visiting the injured soldiers. He even bandaged their wounds and distributed the healing pills left by Yang Wu.
It had to be said that Lu Zhi was a very good advisor. Not only did he know how to give advice, but he also knew how to win people's hearts for the higher-ups. He was a rare talent.
In this war, Lu Zhi had revealed a little of his talent. Some generals had already noticed his existence. If it wasn't for the tense situation, some generals would have already tried to recruit him.
When Lu Zhi saw Yang Wu appear, he quickly walked over and knelt down. He cried, "Lu Zhi greets my lord!"
