The opposing general, surnamed Ma, was not only incredibly powerful, but he also possessed a wondrous treasure.

If you're not careful, you might fall into their trap.

Both Tu Xingsun and Lei Zhenzi are the most crucial generals on his side, and he absolutely cannot afford to lose them unexpectedly.

Otherwise, his senior brothers would come and deal with him.

Left with no other option, Jiang Ziya had to raise the white flag and rest for three days before making any further moves.

The morale of the Western Zhou camp plummeted for a time.

The King Yinshi is always elusive, appearing and disappearing without a trace; now, no one knows where he has gone.

Jiang Ziya sat in the high seat, his gaze fixed intently.

Today, he was indeed shocked to have three of his generals defeated in succession.

The generals below, seeing that the prime minister remained silent, naturally also wore solemn expressions.

After a long while, Jiang Ziya finally turned around and looked at Yang Jian.

"Nephew, how is the toxin in your body?"

Yang Jian had already restrained his ferocity and sat there like a gentleman.

"The injury is no longer serious. Although I was slashed by the thief, I've almost fully recovered."

"The key issue is the toxins in the body; they've only eliminated about 20-30% so far. Taking action now would likely be troublesome, as it has damaged the body's vital energy and blood."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ziya nodded.

It's good that Yang Jian is alright. Although his recovery is somewhat slow, it's already quite remarkable that he's improved at all.

Then his gaze turned to the other people.

His expression also turned somewhat gloomy.

"I never expected the Yin Shang to acquire such a powerful artifact; it's actually quite threatening."

"That Ma Yuan wielding this magical artifact is indeed quite troublesome. If we send a powerful expert to deal with it, he might use the artifact's abilities to kill them."

"If we send someone fast, they might not be a match for Ma Yuan. What should we do?"

Upon hearing Jiang Ziya's question, everyone fell silent for a moment, seemingly having no good solution.

Although Ma Yuan wasn't particularly strong, the Immortal Slaying Flying Knife in his hand was indeed quite terrifying.

If they cannot kill their opponent quickly, they will be the ones who die before the opponent can react.

Although Lei Zhenzi, Tu Xingsun, and the others were quite powerful, they were simply too afraid to take any risks.

But Jiang Ziya was really hesitant to take the risk.

The loss of even one person is an enormous blow to Xiqi.

For a time, the situation reached a stalemate.

Just then, someone came to report.

"Report, report, report--------"

"Your Excellency, Your Excellencies, a terrifyingly strong man has appeared outside the military camp."

"They say they are guests from heaven; the Prime Minister must receive them personally."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ziya's expression turned somewhat annoyed.

How dare someone be so arrogant?

He was a disciple of Yuanshi Tianzun the Chan Sect.

Although his magical powers and cultivation were not particularly impressive, he replaced Yuanshi Tianzun in presiding over the Great Tribulation of the Investiture of the Gods.

That guy actually kept insisting that I go and meet him?

Although he looked unwell, he still got up and went outside.

He wanted to see who it was.

When he arrived at the camp, he found an extremely terrifyingly strong man outside.

This burly man was ugly, with a fat head and big ears, broad shoulders and a thick waist. At first glance, he looked no less than three meters tall.

The burly man's exposed belly looked extremely terrifying, almost reaching his knees.

The ugly, burly man stood outside, peering inside.

One hand was still picking its nose.

A moment later, the finger was removed, but a large patch of sticky black stuff was still stuck to it.

Upon seeing this, Jiang Ziya immediately felt nauseous.

This ugly, burly man was far too unkempt.

Although Jiang Ziya felt extremely disgusted, this burly, three-meter-tall fellow looked powerful and imposing, so he must have some ability.

"May I ask your name, fellow Daoist? On which sacred mountain do you cultivate? And where did you come from?"

Upon hearing Jiang Ziya's question, the terrifyingly strong man, standing three meters tall, couldn't help but grin and chuckle.

Its gaping mouth revealed a mouthful of yellow teeth, making it truly hideous.

"I am Marshal Feipeng from Heavenly Court."

"I have received orders from my master to come and lend a helping hand to Xiqi."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ziya was immediately taken aback.

Was he originally Marshal Feipeng of the Heavenly Court?

If that's true, this person must be someone of great importance.

Because he had heard of Marshal Tianpeng's reputation.

The Heavenly Court is now nothing but an empty shell.

Apart from a select few strong individuals, everyone else is utterly incompetent.

Those powerful figures were quite well-known in the Primordial World.

This includes Taibai, Juanlian, and the Feipeng standing before us.

The reason Tianpeng has gained some fame is mainly because of his master.

There are rumors that his master was the Grand Master Xuandu, others that he was the Du'e Zhenren, and still others that he was an unofficial disciple of Taishang Laozi.

No one knows exactly what happened, but it's an undeniable fact that this guy has some connection with the Taishang.

The arrival of this fellow here is indeed a significant signal for the Western Zhou Dynasty.

This indicates that people from Taishang Laozi's lineage also got involved.

Even if this guy's methods are ordinary, as long as he is in the Western Zhou, he is an extremely huge and awe-inspiring cornerstone.

Thinking of this, Jiang Ziya finally revealed a faint smile.

"So it's Marshal Tianpeng! Please come in, please come in."

"We will prepare a banquet to welcome the immortal and cleanse him of his travel dust."

Jiang Ziya was in an extremely pleasant mood at this moment.

The people following Jiang Ziya also realized that this person was no ordinary individual.

It represents not only the Heavenly Court, but also the Taishang.

Therefore, people were generally kind to him.

The arrival of Tianpeng was a huge reassurance for the Western Zhou Dynasty.

The crowd then proceeded to slaughter cattle and sheep, and delicious dishes were served in a continuous stream.

There was deer meat, beef hooves, and pig's head meat...

Seeing all this delicious food, I naturally ate and drank to my heart's content.

The wine was poured out in one gulp, and the delicious food was devoured plate after plate.

He knew that he would be going into battle tomorrow and might die on the battlefield at any time, so he ate and drank lavishly, treating it as if it were his last meal.

Everyone was delighted to see this scene, and the atmosphere inside the tent finally became lively again.

Three days later.

Ma Yuan had already ridden out of the formidable pass, strutting about with his arrogance.

Three days ago, he killed three of the enemy's top generals, including renowned experts such as Xue Ehu.

They directly killed the Western Zhou, forcing them to hang up a white flag of truce.

Even bus stop exemption signs are categorized into different levels.

The lowest-level truce token grants a three-day truce.

Three days have now passed.

He naturally came to provoke them once again.

In fact Ma Yuan understood this as well.

The reason he was able to display such great power was mainly due to the supernatural abilities of his magical treasures.

The Immortal Slaying Flying Knife he carried was indeed a terrifying magical weapon.

With this magical artifact, the enemy's powerful figures dare not act rashly; they only touch cannon fodder.

If we can kill a few more of their generals, they'll have to really send out their strongest fighters.

By then, it will be beyond his ability to handle.

Therefore, he decided that he could leave after killing a few more people.

In this way, he could not only gain good fortune and merit, but also enjoy worldly wealth and luxury, which was obviously something he had always dreamed of.

With that thought in mind, he took the sledgehammer in his hand and went straight to the gate of the Xiqi camp, where he began to hurl a torrent of abuse.

His Human Emperor has repeatedly insulted the Saint.

At the time, I felt that the current Human Emperor was extremely vulgar.

In retrospect, His Human Emperor the Emperor's way of speaking was indeed quite straightforward.
