The Eruption of Fury (II)
Leyue, Old General Wang, and the others watched anxiously, but to their dismay, they had no idea what was happening inside.
In their eyes, the battlefield before Wind and Rain Pass had returned to its former state, with no one and no blood left—of course, this was unrealistic. When Old General Wang sent people to investigate, they were unable to proceed after only a few steps. It was then that Leyue and the others discovered that something transparent was blocking their way.
In other words, what they saw was merely an illusion.
Yes, this is the spatial restriction that naturally forms when Zhang Xingfeng uses the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Sword Drawing Art. Those inside this spatial restriction will be attacked, while those outside the restriction will remain completely unharmed.
While everyone was paying attention to all of this, no one noticed that the Azure Blood Blade, which had been knocked down by the Great Elder, began to glow. Slowly, the light from the Azure Blood Blade grew stronger and stronger, and then suddenly flashed and disappeared completely. If Zhang Xingfeng had been there, he would have seen the Azure Blood Blade return to the unconscious Lang Feng's body with lightning speed.
The Azure Blood Blade and the Lang Feng are a perfect union of man and weapon, requiring no True Primordial Energy to control.
At this moment, Leyue was carrying Lang Feng and walking into the tent. She did not notice that Lang Feng's eyes trembled slightly.
Inside the restricted space at this moment!
Zhang Xingfeng's face was icy as he looked down at the Yuan Mongolia warriors below. The Chaos Power within his body circulated like lightning. He was about to use the second move of the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Sword Drawing Art. Although this second move required the strength of the early stage of the Body Integration to execute, Zhang Xingfeng, with the strength of the late stage of the Avatar, forcibly activated it. Coupled with his powerful physique, Zhang Xingfeng was still able to resist the backlash.
"Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Sword Drawing Art - Wrath of the Thunder God -" Zhang Xingfeng's face was cold, his hands became crystal clear, and strands of electricity flickered in his hands.
"Destroy the world!"
Zhang Xingfeng pronounced the death sentence on the Yuan Mongolia soldiers below.
"Boom!"
"Hiss!" "Boom!" "Rumble!" Thunder rumbled incessantly, and lightning flashed like rain across the sky and earth.
"Ah!" "Ah!"... Only screams echoed. Everyone forgot to speak, only screaming, as if they were incapable of speech. The Yuan Mongolia soldiers could see nothing else; in their eyes, there was only boundless lightning. When the lightning struck them, it meant death. The power of this lightning was something even Nascent Soul Realm expert couldn't withstand. Of course, there was only one fate for these soldiers.
"Bang!" Half of Wind and Rain Pass was also within the restricted area, and Wind and Rain Pass too suffered the disaster. Faced with the terrifying lightning, even the most formidable pass under heaven was blasted to its knees. The soldiers inside were all killed by the lightning without any power to resist.
Bolts of lightning flashed through the Wind and Rain Pass, and buildings collapsed under their rays.
Quiet!
A terrifying silence!
Zhang Xingfeng looked down at the countless charred corpses, his heart seemingly frozen solid, devoid of any pity. Suddenly, Zhang Xingfeng glanced at two more corpses in the distance—the promising Kasha and the high-ranking Great Elder —but now they were cold, lifeless bodies, for they had harmed Zhang Xingfeng's brothers.
"Whoosh!" Zhang Xingfeng flew away, heading towards Lang Feng.
"Ah!" "Ah!" "Ah!"...
All the Ming Army stared in shock at the countless corpses before them. Once Zhang Xingfeng left the restricted space, it had lost its function, and the horrific scene inside left all the Ming Army stunned.
What a shocking scene it was to see half a million corpses appear before them!
"Ah!"...
The Yuan Mongolia inside the northern half of the city at Wind and Rain Pass had just discovered in horror that they could no longer reach the southern half. When they finally were able to go, a scene they would never forget unfolded.
Countless corpses, countless collapsed buildings—the entire southern part of the magnificent Wind and Rain Pass was completely destroyed. It was an unbelievable thing, yet it happened.
"Big Brother!" Zhang Xingfeng suddenly appeared in Lang Feng's tent. Seeing Lang Feng's pale face, the coldness on Zhang Xingfeng's face crumbled instantly, and his eyes suddenly became moist.
Lang Feng never asked anything of Zhang Xingfeng, always quietly doing things for Zhang Xingfeng. This was the first time Lang Feng, for love, had asked Zhang Xingfeng to let him come to Wind and Rain Pass. But on that very first time, Lang Feng accompanied Princess Leyue to the front lines alone, and this happened.
Looking at the once robust Lang Feng, now so fragile, Zhang Xingfeng felt a pang of heartache at the thought that he might never be able to cultivate again.
"I'm a bastard! I'm a bastard! I'm such a bastard!" Zhang Xingfeng screamed inwardly, "If I had let my brother take the Biling Pill, none of this would have happened, how could this have happened!"
When Zhang Xingfeng returned to the Star Peak Manor after successfully refining the Biling Pill for the first time, Lang Feng was practicing the Azure Blood Blade. Zhang Xingfeng didn't have a chance to give the Biling Pill to Lang Feng. By the time Lang Feng emerged, Zhang Xingfeng had already gone to the palace.
When Zhang Xingfeng met Lang Feng for the second time, his attention was entirely focused on Lang Feng's love life. So he arranged for Lang Feng to manage the Tianfeng Casino, and again, he did not give Lang Feng the Biling Pill.
The third incident occurred when the Li Family attacked Tianfeng Casino. Zhang Xingfeng's attention was entirely focused on how to attack the Li Family, and he forgot about this incident. After the successful attack on the Li Family, the Wind and Rain Pass incident happened, and Lang Feng and Leyue ran there again.
From beginning to end, Zhang Xingfeng never gave the Biling Pill to Lang Feng.
"I gave them all to everyone else, why, why did I forget my eldest brother? Why?" Zhang Xingfeng was filled with regret. He had given the elixirs to Zhang Yu and Zhang Xingfeng Xiao Lin, but Zhang Xingfeng had forgotten his own sworn brothers!
"Cough!" Lang Feng suddenly coughed, startling Zhang Xingfeng into immediately tensing up.
Lang Feng slowly opened his eyes, looked at Zhang Xingfeng, and after a while said with surprise, "Second brother, second brother, cough..." Lang Feng was obviously seriously injured this time, and he coughed as he spoke.
"Brother, don't talk, rest, rest!" Zhang Xingfeng immediately pressed Lang Feng down, letting him rest. He forced a smile, looking at Lang Feng with a strained expression.
"Brother Zhang! Brother Zhang, you're here." Leyue suddenly walked into the tent and was clearly surprised to see Zhang Xingfeng. "Brother Zhang, what happened to those Yuan Mongolia outside? Why are they all dead?" Leyue still didn't know how those Yuan Mongolia had died.
By the time they saw the body, Zhang Xingfeng had already left.
"They all seem to have been struck by lightning. These brutal Yuan Mongolia soldiers killed so many people, now even the heavens are punishing them!" Leyue actually thought it was divine retribution. This is understandable; how could she have imagined someone could possess such a powerful attack?
Zhang Xingfeng was taken aback, then smiled and said nothing. This was fine; he didn't want to cause panic.
"Brother Lang Feng!" Leyue exclaimed in surprise when she saw that Lang Feng had woken up, but her voice suddenly became shy.
Lang Feng blushed as well. Zhang Xingfeng, who was standing next to him, seemed to have noticed something. Zhang Xingfeng immediately stared straight at Lang Feng. Lang Feng looked at Zhang Xingfeng and didn't know what to say. He could only pretend that he was still injured and had not recovered, and closed his eyes to rest.
Zhang Xingfeng immediately turned his gaze to Leyue, Leyue face suddenly flushed red. But in an instant, she seemed to be filled with courage and said, "Brother Zhang, Brother Lang Feng and I have already pledged our lives to each other!"
"Uh!" Zhang Xingfeng was taken aback. What was going on? He looked at Lang Feng and Leyue with a questioning gaze, but it was obvious that neither of them wanted to talk about it. Zhang Xingfeng was also happy for Lang Feng, so he didn't want to make things awkward for everyone and immediately walked out of the tent.
Leyue quietly walked to Lang Feng's bedside, looked at Lang Feng with a sweet smile on her face, and Lang Feng also looked at Leyue with a little blush. Both of them remembered what happened after Leyue brought Lang Feng to the tent.
At that time, Lang Feng began to awaken because of the return of the Jade Blood Blade. At this time, the pained Leyue began to cry beside Lang Feng, saying that she loved Lang Feng and hoped that Lang Feng would wake up. Overjoyed, Lang Feng pretended to be unconscious and listened happily to Leyue's words.
Lang Feng became more and more excited as he listened, and he could no longer control his expression. Finally, Leyue noticed the signs and Lang Feng could no longer pretend. The two of them actually got together just like that.
Everything was that simple and that fast!
Zhang Xingfeng stepped out of the tent. The camp was filled with a joyous atmosphere; everyone was happy that the Yuan Mongolia had been defeated so inexplicably. Because they no longer needed to fight, and therefore no longer needed to die.
"Earl Zhang!" Suddenly someone called out from behind.
Zhang Xingfeng turned around and looked at him, then smiled and said, "Old General Wang, you're getting more and more energetic!" Zhang Xingfeng had met Old General Wang when he went to Zhu Li to recuperate in the Taihang Mountain.
As a veteran figure in the military and one of Zhu Li's most trusted men, Old General Wang knew about some powerful forces, and he was also very clear about Zhang Xingfeng's capabilities.
When he suddenly saw countless corpses of Yuan Mongolia soldiers appear before his eyes, everyone else thought it was divine punishment, but Old General Wang inexplicably thought for a moment that it might be Zhang Xingfeng's doing!
Of course, in an instant, Old General Wang rejected his own judgment. He couldn't believe that a single person could possess such destructive power. He clearly saw the state of the Old General Wang Pass Under Heaven— Wind and Rain Pass —at this moment. Could that have been caused by a human being?
"Earl Zhang, how is young Lang Feng now?" Old General Wang felt very guilty towards Lang Feng, as it was their responsibility to protect the princess! Lang Feng, however, was seriously injured as a result.
"It's nothing, I just lost all my power!" Zhang Xingfeng's expression suddenly turned a little cold. He was now thinking of someone— Zhu Li!
If Zhu Li had agreed to what Lang Feng and Leyue had said, would today's events have occurred?
"Zhu Li, humph!" Zhang Xingfeng's face was frosty. "General, I'll go rest first. Please arrange for me to sit next to my elder brother!"
"Good, good!" Old General Wang immediately laughed, showing no displeasure at Zhang Xingfeng's expression. However, Old General Wang had already made up his mind.
"Earl Zhang, please look around. I'll arrange for someone to set up a new tent right away! Please wait a moment." Old General Wang was all smiles.
Zhang Xingfeng nodded. The thought of his elder brother losing all his martial arts skills Zhang Xingfeng feel very bad, even though he had already vented his anger.
"The Yuan Mongolia have retreated! The Yuan Mongolia have retreated!" Suddenly, a joyful shout rang out.
"The Yuan Mongolia have retreated!" "The Yuan Mongolia have retreated!" "The Yuan Mongolia have retreated!"...
Shouts instantly echoed throughout the entire camp, and all the soldiers were overjoyed because they had won and driven away the arrogant Yuan Mongolia, although the real reason was not because of them.
Upon hearing this, Zhang Xingfeng smiled. Any army suffering such a blow would retreat, for they were already in a state of panic. Five hundred thousand outside the city, and another two hundred thousand dead inside. Moreover, they died inexplicably; no one saw how they died. Judging from their appearance, they were probably struck by lightning! Striked by lightning? This conclusion terrified the surviving Yuan Mongolia soldiers.
Hong Zhu glanced at the deserted Wind and Rain Pass and smiled coldly, "Do you dare not leave? Five hundred thousand died outside the city, two hundred thousand died inside the city, and you still dare not leave with only one hundred and thirty thousand troops left!"
Hong Zhu suddenly roared, "Quickly seal off the North Gate!" The North Gate was located in the north and had not been destroyed. Moreover, the North Gate was the only main road leading to Yuan Mongolia. If it was sealed off, the Yuan Mongolia would really have no way to get in.
"Yes!" A large number of the Ming Army immediately rushed towards the north gate.
"What? Say it again!" Zhu Li's eyes widened in shock, and the messenger eunuch was so frightened that he could barely speak.
"Your Majesty, a secret letter Old General Wang's great victory!" Zhu Li's personal eunuch immediately took the letter from the messenger eunuch, walked to Zhu Li's Zhu Li, and presented the letter to him. Zhu Li glanced at the still kneeling messenger eunuch and waved him away.
"Your Majesty, the Yuan Mongolia has retreated!" Zhu Li became excited upon seeing the first line of the secret letter. He only knew it was a great victory, and thought it was a major victory during the battle, but in fact, this was a complete victory!
Zhu Li immediately read on.
"At the beginning of this battle, our army suffered 130,000 casualties, while the Yuan Mongolia suffered 170,000 casualties. It was a stalemate, and neither side could come up with a solution." Zhu Li nodded in satisfaction. It was already quite good that our casualties were less than those of the Yuan Mongolia.
"We were fortunate to have Brother Lang Feng in this battle. He single-handedly killed over Yuan Mongolia soldiers. He's the spearhead of our army." Zhu Li was taken aback. "Lang Feng, isn't that Zhang Xingfeng's brother? Why is he fighting?" Zhu Li shook his head and continued reading.
"Then the turning point began. Two top experts appeared in the Yuan Mongolia. One held off Lang Feng, while the other wanted to kill Princess Leyue!" Zhu Li broke out in a cold sweat when he saw this. If his daughter was killed, the morale would be greatly damaged, and he might even be captured by the enemy.
"Lang Feng was seriously injured and fell into a coma while protecting the princess. The situation is very critical. The experts of the Yuan Mongolia are preparing to kill the princess!" Zhu Li was shocked. Although he already knew the outcome, he was still secretly afraid when he saw this.
"Just then, Zhang Xingfeng Earl Zhang appeared, and then we couldn't see what happened. It seemed that Earl Zhang and the 500,000 people had disappeared, but we found that there was a transparent thing blocking everything in front of us!" Zhu Li frowned slightly. He was certain that all of this was caused by the incredibly powerful Zhang Xingfeng.
"When we saw what was happening ahead, 500,000 people were already dead, seemingly killed by lightning. Moreover, Wind and Rain Pass also seemed to have been attacked by countless lightning bolts. The southern area was completely destroyed, which also caused 200,000 casualties to the Yuan Mongolia! Thus, our army was fortunate enough to achieve victory!"
Zhu Li abruptly put the secret letter aside, his brows furrowing deeply, clearly deep in thought.
"Lang Feng? Leyue? Zhang Xingfeng?" Zhu Li suddenly made a decision, and a mysterious smile appeared on his face.
