Think I'm Just a Koi Because a Divine Beast Hasn't Shown Its Might? Shui Bing'er Captured Alive, Ghost Douluo Shocked!

"Hua's blade does not strike the old or the young. Withdraw, and I shall spare your lives!"

"But if blades must be crossed, I will show you no mercy!"

Hua Mulan stood boldly atop an auspicious cloud, looking down upon the Tian Dou soldiers.

There were no powerful experts overseeing the Heavenly Dou Army; its commanders were merely girls in their teens.

For a mighty empire to send children like these to lead troops into battle was simply laughable!

She had kindly intended to drive these girls away with a warning.

"Why would such an auspicious omen protect Chang'an?"

Shui Bing'er, who commanded Tian Dou's forces, was not frightened away by the qilin either. Her clear, watery eyes were filled with confusion.

Tian Dou's army of forty thousand was not something Chang'an's mere two thousand defenders could withstand!

Once battle began, it would practically be a one-sided slaughter!

This battle was supposed to be the Tian Dou Empire's campaign to reclaim its territory. Why had an auspicious phenomenon appeared in the enemy camp instead?

Such an auspicious sign also reassured Chang'an's soldiers considerably.

Because the woman standing upon the auspicious clouds was Chang'an's defending general!

"Damn! Our female general is so cool!"

"With the Auspicious Beast Qilin protecting us, Heaven's mandate is with Chang'an!"

"General, protect us!"

The qilin was an auspicious sacred beast that could bring people good fortune.

With such an auspicious sign appearing on their side, how could the soldiers not be fired up?

Outside Chang'an Pass.

Chrysanthemum Douluo and the others also spotted the auspicious clouds and radiant colors from afar!

"The Auspicious Beast Qilin? Such a sacred beast has actually appeared in Chang'an as well?!"

Chrysanthemum Douluo let out a long breath.

The Chang'an Empire had already shocked him more than once!

And now, it had even brought forth a sacred qilin!

"I wonder what rank the soul master with the Qilin Spirit is. Can this sacred beast truly protect Chang'an?" Ghost Douluo swept his gaze around the city.

The densely packed Tian Dou soldiers had long since formed up in battle formation.

If the defending general was not strong enough, then even with a Sacred Beast Spirit, it would be impossible to hold the city!

Shui Bing'er quickly recovered from the shock brought by the auspicious sacred beast.

After all, her own spirit was extremely noble as well.

It was the Ice Phoenix, a top-tier ice-element spirit!

In terms of spirit quality, it was no weaker than the Auspicious Beast Qilin!

"My Tian Dou army has forty thousand troops. You will not scare us off so easily!"

"If you have the ability, then defeat my army head-on!"

The qilin might represent auspiciousness and good fortune.

But if one's own strength was lacking, good fortune alone could not protect this city!

Those Tian Dou soldiers eager to earn merit had already grown impatient!

"Why waste words? Attack!"

"A mere Qilin Spirit thinks it can scare us away?"

"What nonsense about not wanting to cross blades? You're clearly just bluffing!"

"You think you can frighten us without any real strength? I'm not afraid of you!"

Before the army set out, they had already learned about the defensive arrangements of every city in Chang'an.

They were utterly unafraid of the suddenly appearing Qilin Spirit!

The horns of attack sounded!

The Heavenly Dou Army launched a mighty assault from all sides at once!

In an instant, cannon fire filled the sky outside the city, accompanied by the neighing of warhorses!

As the commanding general, Shui Bing'er charged at the forefront!

"Second Soul Skill, Ice Ring Armor!"

Two yellow and one purple—three soul rings lit up brilliantly!

Though she was still young, she possessed the strength of a Third Ring Soul Master!

Even among the army, she was among the best!

A layer of translucent pale-blue ice-element armor clung to her body, shielding her from the incoming arrows.

At her side stood the Tian Dou Empire's Soul Master forces!

Each of them unleashed their martial souls and attacked the city walls together!

Seeing that these children refused to listen and insisted on going to war, Hua Mulan stopped indulging them:

"When a divine beast shows its might, do you take me for a koi fish?"

"Did you think I was just bluffing?"

Stepping on auspicious clouds, she soared into the air, Azure Profound Kirin Blade in hand, then leaped down!

The Kirin descended upon the world, and rosy light burst forth!

Clouds stretching for thousands of miles were soaked in the rosy light, becoming radiant and resplendent with extraordinary magnificence!

"I am Hua Mulan, general of the Chang'an Empire, a level ninety-one Titled Douluo! My martial soul is the Kirin!"

The overwhelming pressure of a Titled Douluo swept forth without restraint at that moment!

Every Tian Dou soldier advancing on the attack was so intimidated by the immense pressure that they could not move!

The attacking Soul Masters were likewise crushed by the pressure, unable to take a single step!

The ice armor on Shui Bing'er's body exploded layer by layer!

Unable to withstand the pressure either, she dropped to one knee!

Her beautiful blue eyes trembled wildly with terror.

"It's... a Titled Douluo!"

She had considered every possibility, even the possibility that Li Xin from the Royal Capital would arrive with reinforcements.

But she had never imagined that there was another Titled Douluo within this city!

Because none of this had been in the intelligence they received!

Had they known there was another Titled Douluo, they never would have split their forces so rashly!

"Why? Why is the Chang'an Empire so powerful?"

Titled Douluo were already scarce; every single one was a figure renowned across an entire region!

Previously, the God Demon Douluo Li Xin had shocked everyone!

Xue Ye had dispatched the Five Route Army to launch a punitive campaign.

Yet now, another Titled Douluo had emerged!

The Chang'an Empire was far more than what they could understand from appearances alone!

The next instant, a graceful green figure flashed before her.

The Kirin Blade swung in her hand, and several blade shadows flickered forth.

With unstoppable force, they wiped out the entire Soul Master legion!

Only Shui Bing'er remained, frozen in terror as she stared blankly at the sudden turn of events.

I really should have left. She was filled with regret and self-reproach.

Hua Mulan had urged her to leave earlier, but she had stubbornly insisted on her own way.

And now she had fallen into such a situation!

The Tian Dou army instantly descended into chaos upon seeing another Titled Douluo appear!

"We're doomed!"

"We were deceived! There's another Titled Douluo!"

"We can't fight this! Retreat!"

One after another, the officers began to lose their nerve.

They simply did not have the resolve or courage to fight a Titled Douluo to the death!

What was more, they were the attacking side!

Their commander-in-chief was absent, their field commander had been captured, and the Soul Master legion had suffered countless casualties. How were the ordinary soldier legions supposed to fight?

When soldiers lost their nerve, it was one man; when generals lost their nerve, it was the whole army!

Once the officers lost their nerve, the soldiers followed suit.

They turned and fled in rout alongside the officers!

Hua Mulan grabbed Shui Bing'er by the collar with one hand, lifted her up, and leaped several times onto the city wall!

Just like that, Shui Bing'er was captured.

Capturing the enemy commander greatly boosted the morale of the Chang'an soldiers!

"General Hua Mulan is mighty!"

"Ha ha ha, we have the Auspicious Beast Qilin! What does your Heavenly Dou Army have to stop us?"

"We already gave you the chance to run, but you wouldn't listen!"

"Auspicious fortune is with us! Brothers, charge! Time to claim some battle merit!"

Hua Mulan swiftly moved to the other three city gates.

Without encountering any resistance, she wiped out every Heavenly Dou Soul Master legion.

She captured the young women commanders from Skywater Academy.

The Chang'an Garrison's morale soared. After slaughtering all the enemies who had climbed onto the walls, they opened the city gates and pursued them out!

The Heavenly Dou Army was driven into a total rout!

Xing Luo battle formation.

Ghost Douluo received the latest report from the front lines and immediately read it aloud:

"The attack on the central city has also failed. The enemy has a Titled Douluo—the Kirin Douluo. There was no suspense in this battle; it practically ended in a devastating sweep!"

The moment those words were spoken, the entire Xing Luo Grand Army was shaken!

"Another Titled Douluo?"

"Where did the Chang'an Empire get so many Titled Douluo?"

"Can we even fight this?"
