Cleaning Up the Battlefield (2)

Putting everything else aside, he was currently training an unparalleled warrior for her. In Ye Lang's mind, Li Yue would return to the Soaring Sky Empire sooner or later, and in the end, she would still be Zhao Yarou's subordinate.

Ye Lang shouldn't have done such a thing, but he felt indebted to Li Yue, so he wanted to give her the greatest benefit. At the same time, he didn't think Zhao Yarou was powerful enough to pose any threat to him. It wasn't that he thought Zhao Yarou couldn't kill him, but rather that he felt there was little chance that Zhao Yarou would have any further contact with him.

This was an unexpected event, and such an event should not happen again. Ye Lang will not go to the Xiangkong Empire again, so he will not be surrounded and intercepted by Zhao Yarou.

Consider it compensation... Wait, why do I say compensation? I don't owe her anything. This is strange.

Ye Lang shook his head, clearing his mind of all his chaotic thoughts, and continued adding ingredients to the small pot. The soup seemed to have changed a bit; it didn't seem to be the kind of soup he usually drank.

At this time, not many people paid attention to Ye Lang. Most of their attention was on Li Yue. If they had paid attention, they would have found that Ye Lang was actually more difficult to deal with than Li Yue, at least in some sense.

Some people tried to take advantage of Ye Lang, but as soon as they got close to him, they were sent flying by an earth fist that suddenly appeared on the ground. That's right, it was an earth fist, a fist formed from earth elements, which shot out directly from the ground with tremendous force, knocking away those who wanted to take advantage of him.

This situation makes it clear that Ye Lang, who seems harmless, is not so easy to subdue. It also shows that Ye Lang's magic (alchemy) is extremely advanced, advanced enough that he can subtly control the earth element without making any moves.

Those people are still unaware that Ye Lang is using alchemy. This attack method can also be considered a form of magic, which can be confusing.

Fortunately, this confusion prevented Ye Lang's identity from being exposed. How could a magician be related to Ye Lang, who was famous for his alchemy? It seems difficult to make such a connection.

"General!!"

The roars told Ye Lang without him even looking that Li Yue had successfully killed the general. Li Yue was now capable of single-handedly entering the enemy camp and taking the enemy general's head. Ye Lang had known this outcome for a long time.

Ye Lang just wanted to know how much Li Yue had been injured and whether she had improved since the last time!

"Not bad, quite an improvement again." Ye Lang nodded. "Looks like we'll have to start cleaning up the mess now..."

Ye Lang took the small pot off the fire, poured the contents into a bowl, and then walked towards Li Yue. At this time, Li Yue was covered in blood, and it was impossible to tell whether it was from the enemy or her own blood.

"I'm still okay, I can only rest after I kill all these people!!" Li Yue murmured. Her face was expressionless, and her eyes were devoid of any emotion.

As long as the Gray Wolf Unit do not retreat, Li Yue will continue to fight, even though she has already suffered many injuries and will find it increasingly difficult towards the end.

Should we continue?

When the Gray Wolf Unit saw Li Yue kill their general like God of Slaughter, their fear reached its peak. However, they did not retreat, not only because their fighting spirit had not diminished, but also because they could see that Li Yue was getting weaker and weaker.

Continue, of course we must continue!!

"Brothers, charge! This Little Devil Girl is dying! We must avenge the general, and avenge our fallen brothers!!"

Suddenly, the Gray Wolf Unit' morale soared again, because they might have seen a glimmer of hope. At the same time, they were now a very strong type of unit: the desperate army, for the desperate army is bound to win.

Swish swish...

Li Yue slashed down those who came up with her sword, dodging attacks from all directions. She was now reacting entirely on instinct, which brought her to a new level. At the same time, her comprehension was at its peak, and her strength would be even greater afterward.

Seeing Li Yue like this, Ye Lang began to smile. He understood that after this, Li Yue's strength would increase significantly again, and that was exactly what he hoped for.

However, until it all passes, Li Yue will continue to suffer!

"Huh!?"

Li Yue felt a weapon slash across her back, leaving another long gash. However, she did not stop what she was doing. After quickly killing the person in front of her, she thrust her sword back, killing the person who had injured her.

She didn't turn around during this thrust, as if she could see what was behind her. Her sword strike seemed perfectly natural, leaving no trace and making it impossible for anyone behind her to dodge.

Such incidents occurred more and more frequently afterward, and Li Yue sustained more and more injuries. Her blood was slowly draining away, and her strength was also slowly fading. However, even so, she did not frown at all and continued to wield her sword to kill the enemies around her.

Even so, everyone could see that she was nearing her end; each sword strike could be her last, as if she would collapse immediately after each swing.

This made the Gray Wolf Unit increasingly excited. They felt that success was in sight. As long as they worked a little harder, they could finally defeat this Little Devil Girl.

However, this little bit keeps going on and on, and after one little bit, another little bit is needed!

By the time someone realized something was wrong, they only had a few hundred men left!

Li Yue remained standing, as if she would never fall. At that moment, they were afraid—a fear that came from the bottom of their hearts.

"She's a devil! She's a devil!!"

At that moment, someone shouted madly, and thankfully he really was mad, yelling wildly as he ran toward the distant city.

Some of the remaining people also began to flee, now feeling that there was no point in continuing. Of course, there were still some who did not retreat and continued to try to kill Li Yue.

These are the kind of people who are adventurous and unwilling to give up. They feel that if they leave, Li Yue might collapse, and then all their previous efforts would be in vain.

"Little Devil Girl, today it's either you or us who die!" the remaining man roared, seemingly trying to embolden himself and also hoping to scare Li Yue.

Just then, they heard a voice, a very calm voice, but its calmness plunged them into hell, because they now remembered that there was another person they had overlooked.
