"F * ck him, looks like I'm just wasting my time.”Qi Xu casually threw away the bamboo slip in his hand. He had flipped through so many books, but there was no record of the Peerless Skill. This made him understand that this information must have been in the hands of those big families or scholars. It had not been circulated at all.
As expected, the Three Kingdoms 'monopoly of knowledge was really annoying.
Since he couldn't find it in the book, there was no need to waste any more time. Hearing the deafening roar coming from outside, Qi Xu went out and walked towards the high wall. He had to see what the situation was like now.
"General Qi!"
The soldiers guarding the high wall greeted Qi Xu when they saw him.
Hwa Xiong was injured, and everything was handed over to Qi Xu to take care of. Now, Qi Xu could be considered to have had his fun as a general.
Qi Xu had saved Hua Xiong from the hands of the general of the alliance army, and they had all witnessed it. His strength and courage had also convinced these soldiers.
"What's the situation?" Qi Xu nodded.”
A man dressed like a scholar stepped forward.""It's not optimistic. The rebel army's attack is more ferocious than we thought. I'm afraid that the formation in Guanzhong won't last until General Lu arrives!”
Qi Xu nodded. He looked at the man and asked,""And you are?"
When Hwa Xiong was injured, he seemed to have seen this person before. However, because it was a man, he was not interested in getting to know him. Moreover, he was too preoccupied with the Peerless Skill, so he did not greet him.
"I am Li Su." The scholarly man cupped his fists.
"This guy is Li Su?" Qi Xu looked at the scholarly man in front of him in surprise. If nothing unexpected happened, Hwa Xiong would have been defeated, and he should be in charge of everything in Mushui Pass. Now that he had taken away this title, would he be convinced?
Li Su seemed to have seen through Qi Xu's thoughts. He smiled and said,""General Qi, there is no need to worry. I have seen your heroic act of saving General Hua. Therefore, I am convinced that you will temporarily lead us.”
"What are you convinced of? You just don't want to take the blame.”Qi Xu's heart was as clear as a mirror. He could tell at a glance that Li Su was full of bad ideas. Otherwise, he would be sorry for reading so many novels."They're definitely afraid that this Mushui Pass won't be able to hold on any longer, so they can use me as a scapegoat. These scholars are all very sinister.”
Qi Xu was too lazy to argue with him. When he arrived at the city wall, he saw a huge transparent barrier connecting the mountain rocks and cliffs on both sides, enveloping the entire Mushui Pass. It completely blocked the way, and not even a fly could fly over.
If the alliance army wanted to enter Mushui Pass, they would have to be as high as the clouds unless they could fly. Even strategists who could control the wind could only fly at a low altitude. Unless one was an expert at the Void Transformation Stage, they could only fly at such a high altitude.
However, if he was a Void Martial Stage expert, would he still need to fly? A single strike would be enough to pierce through this barrier.
Booming sounds rang out, causing the array to fluctuate. Qi Xu looked over and saw three men in Divine Martial armor holding weapons in their hands and attacking the barrier crazily. Although each attack would knock them back, they would immediately attack again.
These attacks seemed fierce, but they did not go all out. Their goal was clearly to keep the array open until the energy was exhausted.
Qi Xu pointed at the three generals and said,""Do you know their names?”
"Pan Feng, Wang Kuang, and the other one is Sun Jian's son, Sun Ce."”
When Qi Xu heard this, he immediately fixed his gaze on Sun Ce. His eyes were filled with surprise. This Sun Ce looked to be only 15 or 16 years old, but he actually couldn't see through his cultivation? In other words, this guy's strength was definitely at the Eternal Sea Realm.
Moreover, from the looks of his attacks, he was even stronger than Pan Feng. In other words, Sun Ce was even stronger than Pan Feng. To have such strength at such a young age, he was indeed worthy of being a person who would leave his name in history. His talent was indeed extraordinary.
Li Su looked at Guan Xia, his face full of worry.""According to their method of fighting, the energy consumption of the array will probably increase. I'm afraid it's an extravagant hope to last for a day.”
"What opinion can I have? If the formation is broken and the reinforcements haven't arrived, we'll just run.”
"..." Li Su was speechless when he heard that. Was it really good to say that he was running away so confidently? But thinking about it carefully, this was the only path they could take.
It was not that Qi Xu had not thought of a way, but the tricks he had read in the books did not seem to work here. This was the Gaowu Three Kingdoms. You should sneak attack the enemy's rations. If a monster general suddenly appeared, you would not be able to return.
Li Su glanced at Qi Xu, cupped his fists, and said with a serious expression,""If that's the case, General Qi, then we have to make plans to retreat as soon as possible. Otherwise, if we're late, I'm afraid it'll be too late to retreat.”
Qi Xu looked at Guan Xia and fell into deep thought.""Are you really going to run away? This is the first battle that I'm leading. Wouldn't it be a little embarrassing if I run away just like that?”
" Master, you don't have to leave immediately…" At this moment, Daji's coquettish voice suddenly sounded in Qi Xu's mind."We sisters still have some Monster Beast Inner Cores here. You can use these Inner Cores to set up a Spirit Gathering Array to supply the energy requirements of this array. I think it won't be a problem to last a few more days.”
"There's such a thing?" When Qi Xu heard this, he was overjoyed." Why didn't you say so earlier? You made me worry for half a day. You're really asking for a beating."”
"Hehehe ~ When night comes, I'm willing to be punished ~"
"This little vixen." Qi Xu really wanted to summon Daji and give her a good beating.
"Who said I'm retreating?" Qi Xu glared at Li Su and said righteously,""I promised General Hua that with me around, there would be no accidents. Come, bring me to the core of the formation.”
"..." Li Su was stunned. Not retreating? Did I see wrongly? Wasn't Daren clearly preparing to retreat just now?
Although he was puzzled, Li Su still brought Qi Xu to the underground core of Mushui Pass.
They were in a secret chamber. There was a huge mysterious formation engraved on the ground. A total of eighteen people sat cross-legged at the eighteen formation eyes. They were drenched in sweat as the energy in their bodies was forcefully absorbed by the formation.
There were thirty-two people waiting to take over their positions at any time, making a total of fifty people.
When they saw Qi Xu and the others enter, they greeted them one after another.
"Using a person as the core of the formation, who created this formation?”Qi Xu was curious.
"I heard that it's one of the legendary three immortals, the Old Immortal Nanhua."”
"Immortal?" Qi Xu pursed his lips when he heard that. How shameless. At most, their cultivation was a little stronger, but they still dared to call themselves immortals?”
Hearing this, Li Su immediately broke out in cold sweat.""Watch your words! Be careful with your words ~ General Qi, you can't speak carelessly!”
