A sword rose, cutting across the heavens, as though time had suddenly frozen.
In Canyon Pass, both sides looked up at Qingliang Mountain, silent, stupefied, stunned...
A moment passed before several soldiers abruptly screamed. The rain of swords, like falling stars, rippled and vanished, and only then did everyone come to their senses.
"Ah! My... my leg!"
"An immortal is helping Prince Huai! Our... our attack on Qingliang Prefecture was an act of injustice that enraged Heaven!"
"The... the Great Qian's destiny is gone! Even Heaven isn't on our side!"
"...!"
The Imperial Court soldiers on the ground screamed and shouted like madmen, clutching their right knees in agony. In an instant, they had lost their will to fight.
Many soldiers could not comprehend the phenomenon they had just witnessed. They believed that the brilliant sword light from Qingliang Mountain was a punishment sent by Heaven, and a sign that Heaven would not tolerate this war launched by the Great Qian Dynasty.
Whoosh!
Zuo Xuan, his eyes somewhat vacant, was the first to recover. He swung one leg over his warhorse and jumped down, shouting urgently, "Medicine! Bring me the Celestial Surveillance Bureau's special Wound-Healing Pills!"
He had already realized what he would face after that sword strike, but he could not accept it. A whole night of fierce fighting had finally brought him here, only for that sword from Qingliang Mountain to wipe everything away in an instant...
Zuo Xuan took the Wound-Healing Pills from a deputy general in a fluster, staggered over to a soldier, and roared, "Swallow one! Hurry!"
Beside him, a deputy general who was a First Tier Supernatural Ability User stared blankly at Zuo Xuan, standing motionless. "We... we don't have Heaven's favor. It's no use."
Li Mu's sword strike had already scared the courage
