From all directions, earth-shattering shouts sounded. Invincible! Invincible! The house collapsed from the sound, and the terror of the roar could be seen. A ferocious tiger with thick front claws and hind legs was revealed. Its muscles were like angry dragons, and its body was covered in yellow and white.
I don't know who you are. There are less than a hundred beasts in the world, and your roar is like thunder. It can be seen that you are full of confidence and have a rare tiger body. Sun Xiong was shocked. Their surprise attack on the Yan Huang Empire was extremely confidential, and there was no news at all. However, why were they surrounded now? There was only one possibility. Chouchi Country had been broken, and our king and the other nobles had been captured. After learning about this operation from them, he had made preparations in advance. Sun Xiong's hatred for his own country was burning in his heart. "Brothers, kill! Kill them all." The kindness in his heart was covered by hatred. Without any hesitation, he gave the order to kill.
"Don't move! Don't move." Chen Xianggong shouted at the soldiers below the Beacon Tower. Since Chen Xianggong was able to compete with Sun Xiong, he wasn't stupid. When they were surrounded, he also thought that the imperial city had been broken. However, he knew that if he really massacred all the people in front of him, he would only be able to fight to the death. It would be meaningless. Although the Braving Blade Camp was strong, with the small city blocking them, they would not be able to charge out of the encirclement. They only needed to surround them to death. Chen Xianggong was a descendant of a civil official. He was not a pure martial artist like Sun Xiong, who was hot-blooded. He had more considerations.
"All of you have been surrounded. If we kill you, we will return the favor tenfold. Listen to this general and don't move.”The Steel Claw Tiger in the middle of the yellow and white statues moved. It charged at the Beacon Tower like an arrow, wanting to capture Sun Xiong to stop the soldiers who were about to kill the people.
The soldier hesitated after Chen Xianggong finished his drink. Chen Xianggong was also the commander of the Braving Blade Camp. They looked around, not knowing what to do. The soldiers did not dare to disobey Chen Xianggong's orders.
Jun's body trembled slightly. Was this a real war? This question surfaced in his mind again. He didn't dare to imagine that the war taught in the clan was just. In order to protect the people, there were people who died for their brothers, and there were people who died for their loved ones. Why didn't these things happen now? Was human life not money? They were simply innocent people who were slaughtered so casually. Jun was lost. He didn't dare to accept it. He even made a bold statement in the Eternal Joy Garden and swept the entire battlefield with his beast body. "I don't want to be part of the Brave Blade Camp anymore. I want to save them. Yes, I want to save them." Jun shouted in his heart as he made a decision. His trembling body stopped and his body was filled with strength. He was no longer afraid of the intimidating aura emitted by Sun Xiong's intelligent beast body.
The Steel Claw Tiger leaped high into the air and opened its sharp steel claws to grab at Sun Xiong. Its speed was astonishing, and its movements brought about a slight sonic boom. Sun Xiong's short Beacon Tower was half destroyed by the claw. It was even more powerful than Sun Xiong's full-strength attack. Sun Xiong summoned the powerful Demon Bear's beast body to meet the other claw of the Steel Claw Tiger. Bang! The powerful Demon Bear was smashed into the collapsed rubble. The dust that was kicked up was mixed with some gravel. The powerful Demon Bear stood up and roared at the Steel Pincer Tiger.
Jun looked at the battle on the Beacon Tower and knew that the opportunity had come. He mustered his courage and advised loudly to the audience.
"Brothers, what's wrong with you? Are you really going to slaughter these defenseless people? A few days ago, you told me about the pride of our Braving Blade Camp. We all dare to die. We can fight for our families and friends. We are the masters of hundreds of battles. We are the enemy's dream demons. But you are killing unarmed people now. Have you forgotten your pride? Would you go against your conscience and kill them for a wrong military order?”
"I know your name is Sun Xiong. You are just a low level intelligent beast, one level lower than me. I am a medium level intelligent beast. Do you think you have the chance to defeat me? Even your soldiers know what's good for them.”The Steel Claw Tiger ignored the powerful Demon Bear's provocation and slowly said.
Sun Xiong felt great hatred in his heart.'This person wants to distract me. This kid didn't look right just now. He just entered the battlefield because he was scared by my iron-blooded methods.' However, he had the courage to resist and would become a benevolent general in the future. He was not suitable to be in charge of the army. He did not know how big his future would be. What was the point of thinking about this? They were already surrounded. It seemed that they would die here today.
"Brothers! They locked up the commoners below and prepared for the war outside the city. Hah! Hah! Hah! It had been a long time since they had a good fight. Come on!”Sun Xiong laughed heartily. His laughter was mixed with the bear's rough voice, making it sound very heavy. After saying that, he raised his bear paw and approached the Steel Claw Tiger.
I'll capture you alive and bring you to Young Master's tent. The Steel Claw Tiger was a level higher than the Strong Demon Bear, so it had the upper hand in terms of strength and speed. It kept hitting the Strong Demon Bear. Although the bear's skin was thick, it could not withstand the claws of the Steel Claw Tiger, so it still felt pain. The powerful Demon Bear twisted its fat body in an attempt to dodge the Steel Claw Tiger's attack. Silver Horn was also accumulating strength.
The Steel Pincer Tiger was extremely pleased with itself. This big dumb bear was being played in circles by it and did not notice the change in the horn at all. The powerful Demon Bear turned around and slapped the Steel Pincer Tiger, causing it to easily jump away. However, his battle instincts told him that it was dangerous. He took a look and realized that these soldiers could not pose any danger to him at all. The mustached general in charge of military supplies was watching coldly. Without any time to think, a pale blue light shot over. Two pairs of steel pincers were raised to block and sank into the steel pincers. Instantly, he felt dizzy and slowed down a few beats. He was still careless.
The bear paw slammed heavily on the Steel Claw Tiger's shoulder, causing it to be tilted. The other paw rushed over, causing it to stagger. The silver horn slammed towards it, and it would definitely cause a bloody hole in it. He felt that his claws were very heavy, as if they had the strength of a thousand pounds. He couldn't lift them at all, and could only tilt his body to the side. A bloody hole appeared on his shoulder, and the pain woke him up from his dizziness. He raised his steel claw and slapped the head of the powerful demon bear.
The demonic bear retracted its head and pulled the silver horn out of the Steel Pincer Tiger's body. Ah! Another sharp pain came, causing the Steel Pincer Tiger to let out a soft cry.
"If you win! I didn't expect your beast body to be able to stun. This is rare. There was no point in continuing the competition. My young master really wants to see you, so he asked me to bring you to him.”The Steel Claw Tiger had returned to its human form. It was a man in his thirties with dark skin. The Steel Claw Tiger had been retracted into his dantian to recuperate. This young man was Zhao Meng, who had snatched the heart of the fire lotus in the forest that day.
When Jun saw that the two of them were done fighting, he went forward and said to Sun Xiong,"General, please forgive me."
"Humph! If we weren't in a war, I would have killed you with one palm strike. Remember that on the battlefield, there will be death. This may be my last piece of advice to you.”"Let's go!" he said to Zhao Meng. Let me meet that young master of yours! Everyone stay behind and guard the city walls. General Chen will take over.”
Sun Xiong walked down the Beacon Tower first, leaving behind Jun, Chen Xianggong, and the others.
"General, you have guts. You dare to come to my camp alone.”Riding in the middle of the horse formation was a white-robed young general with a tall white head, erect ears, and a raised nose. His armor made him look heroic. His eyebrows were like willows, his eyes were like bright stars, and he had a delicate nose and red lips. He was a pretty boy who was even more handsome than ordinary beauties. Jumping off the horse, a bodyguard immediately stepped forward to take the reins. "General, please come with me. We'll talk inside.”
Zhao Meng was the first to follow. The handsome young master entered the barracks. Sun Xiong followed without hesitation.
"General, please sit." The handsome young master pointed at the wooden bench and said,""Men! Look at the tea."
After Sun Xiong sat down, he said,"There's no need for tea. I don't know why you called me here."”
"Could it be that General is afraid that my tea is poisoned?”As she spoke, she took a sip of the tea. "It's fine if you don't want to drink. I called the general here to tell you a few things.”
"Speak! I don't have time to waste here."
"General is indeed forthright. I am the general of the Yan Huang Empire's Zhao army, Li Jie. I was ordered by the emperor to conquer the west. I led the army to break through Chouchi City and opened a new Silk Road. I found out about your operation from your muddle-headed old emperor. I really didn't expect General to have the guts to enter my territory alone. Originally, I wanted to send troops to beat you back when you left the forest. Sigh! Who would have thought that you were all elites of Chouchi Country! Letting you go will always be a big problem. Therefore, I decided to bring you all to a certain city and surround you all. I won't let any of you live.”General Li, who was more handsome than a beauty, said slowly. He had a sense of arrogance after controlling the overall situation.
"Don't tell me that there isn't even a proper army in the surroundings? I thought that you were too careless. Could it be that you're willing to sacrifice an entire city just to wipe us out?”Sun Xiong's words were obvious, mocking Li Jie's ruthlessness.
"General! In your words, people have to die in a war. You seem to have said this before! What a great merit it was to open the Silk Road this time!”
"You guys are too public, but how do the people of our country live? Although the old emperor raised the taxes of your merchant caravan by a lot, you captured my capital.”Sun Xiong said angrily.
"That old emperor of yours is muddle-headed. What kind of life does he see the people living? What kind of life does that emperor of yours have? The Silk Road passed through your capital and should have allowed the people to live a good life, but that emperor of yours still wants to increase taxes to enjoy himself.”Li Jie mercilessly criticized the emperor of Chouchi.
"But…"
"General, I didn't call you here to discuss the right and wrong of your emperor. General Sun, you are trapped in this small city and have no chance of breaking out. I don't know what you should do.”"I wonder if General has made a decision." Li Jie waved his hand to interrupt Sun Xiong.”
"General Li, you're really scheming! Let us enter the trap. However, seeing that General Li was able to become the General of the Western Expedition at such a young age, his talent must be extraordinary. Have you ever heard of the old saying that an ordinary person can rival a country?”Sun Xiong's eyes were filled with killing intent.
Haha! Li Jie laughed lightly. That smile was as beautiful as a flower. Who knew how many people would lose their hearts? Even men would doubt their own ambitions. "Let me introduce a senior to General Sun.”Clapping his hands lightly, an old man in coarse linen clothes with gray hair walked out from behind the screen. "This is an old man I met recently in the vicinity. The old man should be enjoying his old age, but he couldn't stand my coaxing and pestering and finally agreed to be a sinecure here.”After saying that, he bowed to the old man to show his respect.
Oh no, I thought that there were not enough people with the body of an intelligent beast. I couldn't use Zhao Meng for the time being. I could capture this young general and use him as a hostage to prevent the enemy from acting rashly. Who would have thought that he would hold back? This old man is probably a high-grade spirit beast! Otherwise, she would have respected him so much. Thinking of this, Sun Xiong was even more worried about his brothers in the city. He quickly stood up and bowed to the old man,"Junior greets old senior. I wonder if old senior has the body of a high-grade intelligent beast.”
"This senior is indeed a high-grade intelligent beast, but he's about to break through and is still a little short.”Li Jie revealed an even more shocking piece of news. The body of a saint beast was a legendary existence that could only be obtained by comprehending justice.
This information was indeed very useful. Sun Xiong's heart felt like it had fallen into a bottomless abyss. As long as this old man made a move, he would be able to intimidate everyone in the city. At that time, no one would be able to escape from the city. Sun Xiong could only feel fear and regret when he saw the old man drinking tea as if he had no interest in anything. If he had not entered the city, some of his brothers might have been able to escape alive. Now, they could only be trapped in the city.
Seeing that he had successfully intimidated Sun Xiong, Li Jie took a sip of tea and agreed. "General Sun, I don't know if you're like your old emperor!" He still didn't have any chance to die. Aiya! There was no meaning in fighting to the death. I won't keep you any longer. Someone will send you off."
After Sun Xiong went to the enemy camp, Chen Xianggong took over the military power. He was half a politician and half a soldier. The first thing he cared about was his own life and power. He could see how powerful it was. "Each of you should guard the city and wait for General Sun to return.”After giving orders to guard the city, he stood on the beacon tower and watched the enemy's movements. He knew Sun Xiong very well. He knew that Sun Xiong would not stay put.
After Jun shouted, his heart suddenly became clear and he no longer cared about what happened on the battlefield. Anyone with discerning eyes could see that Jun had violated Sun Xiong's intentions, but Sun Xiong was openly berating him. In fact, she was protecting him. Chen Xianggong glanced at Jun and ignored him. Sun Xiong might be about to make a move. He had to prepare to make a move.
Jun was Sun Xiong's personal guard and was supposed to follow Sun Xiong to the enemy camp. However, due to the order, he could not follow. He stood on the beacon tower and watched the enemy camp's every move.
As Sun Xiong walked out, he saw the burly men standing in a row, not moving at all. Moreover, each of them was strong and powerful, and their beast bodies should not be weak. Although he didn't have the cold killing intent of his own Rising Blade Camp, he still had a lot of combat power. Sooner or later, he would become a veteran and a master who dared to die.
In the big tent, Li Jie watched Sun Xiong walk away and chuckled." Old Sun, go back and cook!”He waved his hand at the old senior who was about to step into the ranks of the holy beasts.
"Alright, General, don't call me next time. It's better for me to do my old job.”After the old man finished speaking, he opened the tent and walked out.
"Miss, you asked Old Sun to pretend to be an expert. This is too dangerous!”Zhao Meng said hurriedly.
"What danger is there? Moreover, experts like the Sacred Beast don't have any aura, and he doesn't dare to make a move easily. Moreover, I have a self-defense ultimate move. Didn't you see that he was frightened by me? Do you think saint beasts are all radishes? You can get one anywhere. How many times have I told you to call me young master when there's no one around? Her voice was no longer rough, but rather feminine and pleasant. Oh, it seems that you are injured. You were actually defeated by him even though you were one level higher. I must take him in, definitely!”His voice became heavy again.
Inside the house on the city wall, Sun Xiong said to Chen Xianggong,""There's a semi-sage expert in the enemy. Do you have any good ideas to help us break out of the encirclement?”
Chen Xianggong was greatly shocked. He thought that he would have an extraordinary achievement in joining the army this time, but he did not expect to fall into such a situation. If Sun Xiong doesn't surrender, then I'll kill him when he's not paying attention and offer him to the enemy. Then, I'll lead the Braving Blade Camp to surrender. At that time, it'll be a great merit. I'll be able to save my life and become an official. "What can I do? General, you know that the Holy Beast is a legendary existence. Although it's only a Half-Saint, our number is not enough to fill the gaps between their teeth! " I heard that the Sacred Beast understands the laws of nature and can use the laws of nature to kill people. If he wants you to die, you have to die. I think it's better to surrender.”
"I'll consider it. You can go down first! Jun, stay here. I have something to tell you.”He ordered Chen Xianggong to leave.
"Yes." Jun replied, waiting for Sun Xiong's reprimand.
"I know that we will die if we break out of the encirclement. Although the commoners in the city will be concerned about them, it will only cause them to hate us even more. To boost their morale. Although we are called the Braving Blade Camp and dare to die, who would want to die? I called you here because I hope you can promise me one thing.”Sun Xiong said to Jun earnestly.
"General, if there's anything you need, just tell me! As long as I can do it, I will do my best.”Jun said awkwardly.
"This is difficult at the beginning, but after you succeed, you will be rich. I believe you can do it.”Sun Xiong began to explain,"I will surrender. At that time, Li Jie will escort us to the Yan Huang Empire's capital, Yan City, to ask for merit." You pretend to be a commoner and wait in the city. Then go to Yan City and rescue my Emperor's second son, Yang Xiaozang. This person will be a benevolent person who loves the people. Bring him back to Chouchi Country to find the old prime minister who has retired. He will help him ascend to the throne. At that time, you will have the support to save him and become rich.”
"Why did you choose me? Was General Chen incapable? Can't you?" Jun asked.
"Although Chen Xianggong is talented, his character is not good. Me! If I wanted to escape, who would attract the enemy's attention? That would be easy to negotiate. You, first, you wouldn't attract much attention, so it would be easy to escape. Secondly, you are merciful enough. Third, there must be something special about you being able to stay in the forest. You can pass through the forest and return to Chou Chi. These three points were indispensable. Think about it carefully! This is a map of the forest." He took out a leather map from his armor and slapped it on the table.
The room fell into a long silence as countless thoughts flashed through Jun's mind. This would be a great opportunity. Becoming a minister of a country was like reaching the heavens in one step. However, what will happen to these brothers who have stayed for so long after I leave? "If I leave, what will happen to you and your brothers?”Jun asked.
"I'm fine. If I resist, I'll at most suffer a little and continue to be a soldier. They'll do hard labor. As long as you can let Guojun return to the country, you can redeem us.”Sun Xiong said indifferently. 'I still have to carry a burden for the rest of my life,' he thought to himself.
"Alright then! I agree." He went forward and picked up the map.
"Good! Brother, farewell. I'll leave Chou Chi to you.”Sun Xiong stood up and walked out of the room.
