Starting as a centurion, he fought his way through the chaos of the world.

Chapter 146 Yu Sanjian

Meanwhile, on the other side, the battle between Lu Ming and the Langya King's forces, after several days of fierce fighting, was also coming to an end.

Faced with the ferocious army of the Marquis of Zhige, the army of the Prince of Langya finally began to collapse.

Although they had the numerical advantage.

But Lu Ming's side was too strong.

In particular, several generals, with the help of the formation, killed a Purple Mansion cultivator, and the opposing army completely collapsed.

Watching the army retreat in front of them.

The Prince of Langya couldn't help but stand up. His obese figure and ferocious eyes made him look like a vicious tiger.

He stared ahead and roared angrily.

"Anyone who dares to retreat will be killed without mercy!"

Actually, the most important reason was that he couldn't retreat. The core disciples of the Kaiyang Sect were still inside the formation. If he were to run away with his men...

Will the Kaiyang Sect still support me in the future?

It's lucky that they don't blame him.

As his roar rang out.

The experts around him, along with their personal guards, had already stepped forward.

In the flash of the blade, retreating warriors were cleaved in two and killed on the spot.

Blood was everywhere on the battlefield.

The Prince of Langya was panting heavily.

He hadn't expected Lu Ming to be so difficult to deal with.

Even experts at the Nascent Soul Realm couldn't break his formation.

Meanwhile, the opponent remained standing within the hazy, gray formation.

With eyes fixed on the battlefield, the core disciple of the Kaiyang Sect was now in a sorry state.

Although the Taoist robe he was wearing was a magical artifact, it now showed signs of burning.

Even his hair got quite a bit singed.

His entire body was blackened by smoke.

These past few days, all his muscles have been tense, ready for any attack that might come at any moment.

Therefore, his eyes showed an undeniable weariness.

The Dragon Sparrow Blade appeared in Lu Ming's hand.

He prepared to try launching another attack to see if he could kill the Nascent Soul expert in front of him.

The blade's edge flashed in his palm.

However, before he could go forward...

In the distance, outside the formation, a cold light gradually approached, making him tense all over, as if he were being pricked by thorns.

As I turned around, I saw a powerful figure descending from the heavens, dressed in a purple robe and wielding a golden longsword, swooping down.

A pale golden phantom of a giant sword appeared around the blade, enveloping the entire longsword.

It is several hundred meters long.

It was like a celestial blade, shining brightly alongside the sun in the sky.

It's so bright it makes it hard to open your eyes.

This is a Refining Spirit expert from the Kaiyang Sect.

Lu Ming knew the other party's background at a glance.

"Chirp!"

With the battle flag waving, the black bird took flight at incredible speed, spitting out beams of feathered arrows as it charged toward the giant sword.

"Bah!"

But it was almost utterly devastating.

All the arrows were shattered in an instant.

Then, the sword continued to fall, about to strike the formation.

Just as Lu Ming was about to use his trump card.

"Clang!" A figure flew out diagonally.

It was also a giant sword, and it clashed with the weapon of the Refining Spirit expert from the Kaiyang Sect.

A massive energy surge spread outwards like a giant wave.

"Buzz!" Energy passes through.

The Nine Palaces Eight Trigrams Formation was broken in an instant.

Hundreds of thousands of troops appeared.

The Nascent Soul stage experts of the Kaiyang Sect dared not linger.

With a flash, it flew away into the distance.

He was almost exhausted, and now that he had the opportunity to leave, he certainly wouldn't hesitate.

They escaped the city in an instant.

As for annihilating this army, I'll deal with that after I recover.

Seeing this situation, Lu Ming knew that it was impossible to set up the formation again.

Looking at the large-scale retreat of the army outside the city, he did not hesitate.

"Kill!" he shouted from the city wall.

A cold sound came from his mouth.

"Creak!" The sound of the city gate being pushed open rang out the next moment.

The army gathered in the city charged out in a mighty force.

Wu Han took the lead.

As the long sword in his palm slashed out, a hundred-foot-long blade of light swept across the battlefield.

It created a giant crater tens of meters deep.

In an instant, sand and stones flew all around.

Miao Feng stood holding a battle sword, his eyes gleaming coldly.

The body rushed forward at an extremely fast speed.

The blades around his body converged into a whirlwind.

Wherever it passed, blood stained the ground, gradually transforming into a scarlet tornado.

Baili Fei's stout figure also appeared on the battlefield.

He was holding a golden abacus when he was fighting.

Countless golden beads pierced the sky.

He pierced the body of a Golden Core expert from the Kaiyang Sect.

When he fell to the ground, his body was convulsing.

Bai Fu, who had broken through to the Purple Mansion Realm, spat out a sharp sword.

They swept across the battlefield.

The Kaiyang Sect's Purple Mansion disciples, who were already injured under the encirclement of the army, were no match for him.

In a short time, he was actually suppressed by Bai Fu.

At this moment, Lu Ming's gaze fell upon the battlefield above.

A master cultivator from the Kaiyang Sect, specializing in refining spiritual energy, is confronting an old man.

The other person was none other than the old man who had asked him for meat on the way back.

They realized at the time that the opponent was very strong.

Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a master of the Refining Spirit Realm.

Upon seeing him, the disciples of the Kaiyang Sect said coldly, "Yu Sanjian, you have already broken ties with the Yaoguang Sect. Without their support, do you think you can stop us?"

"How can we not give it a try!" The old man took out his wine jug, took a sip, and then...

The sharpness of the longsword became even more intense here.

It looked like it was about to explode.

"Hmph!" The Kaiyang Sect disciple snorted coldly, and finally chose to retreat.

Facing the seventh ancestor of the Great Yu royal family, he was not absolutely confident, despite the opponent's cultivation level.

Among the ancestors of the Great Yu royal family, he was considered the weakest.

But his talent is the strongest, and his combat strength is not weak either.

It's not too late to fight them after the other disciples from the sect arrive.

As he retreated.

The Prince of Langya finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He fled in haste with his personal guards.

Meanwhile, the old man in the air slowly descended.

Standing on the city wall, he looked at Lu Ming with a smile and said, "Lord Zhige, I didn't drink your wine for nothing, did I?"

When he speaks, he gives people a very relaxed feeling.

But Lu Ming dared not be negligent.

The Seven Ancestors of the Great Yu Dynasty, the Three Swords of Yu.

It is said that back then, if it weren't for the fact that the Great Yu Dynasty was unwilling to submit to the Yao Guang Sect and instead chose to cooperate,

In their generation, this person might have been able to become a Daoist of Yaoguang, with his strength at least at the Dharma Aspect Realm.

Now, however, because he is feared by the Yao Guang Sect, he has failed to obtain the core cultivation technique and has wasted his life.

To this day, he has only reached the level of a Nascent Soul cultivator.

However, judging from the attack just now...

This person's true combat strength is probably much stronger than that of an ordinary Refining God.

"Greetings, Seventh Ancestor! Thank you for your help!" If it weren't for the other party's words just now...

Even if Lu Ming manages to stop the Kaiyang Sect disciples, he will likely have to pay a heavy price.

"Hehe, don't be so polite. You've done so much for my Great Yu, so it's only right that I protect you."

I heard of your name back in our ancestral lands, the youngest marquis of the Great Yu.

He certainly has a commanding presence. It's quite remarkable that he can remain calm and composed in the face of such a situation.

Yu Sanjian said slowly.

When she looked at Lu Ming, a hint of admiration appeared in her eyes.

Then, he continued meaningfully, "You're in pretty big trouble, aren't you?"

A look of confusion appeared in Lu Ming's eyes.

Yu Sanjian glanced at the battlefield below and said, "Let's find a quiet place to talk?"

“Okay!” Lu Ming did not refuse.

They led the other party into the city gate tower.

It's very simple inside, with only a table and a few chairs.

It was a place where the generals guarding the city rested.

After the guards served tea to the two men, Lu Ming waved them away.

When there are only two people in the entire city gate tower.

Yu Sanjian pushed the teacup aside, picked up the wine pot, took a sip, and said, "Geomancers were indeed very powerful in the past, but as you probably know, they are now unable to cultivate at all."

For you, having it is not only a useless thing, but also a huge problem.

The major sects will not let go of this inheritance.

So, hand it over if you can. Humanity still exists, and as a marquis of Dayu, we will naturally protect you.

But when the power of humanity completely dissipates.

When the Great Yu royal family is preoccupied with its own problems, you will inevitably become the target of everyone's criticism.

However, you should consider this yourself; I'm just reminding you.

Lu Ming could tell that Yu Sanjian had no ill intentions; he was genuinely reminding him out of goodwill.

However, this geomancer's lineage is something that others cannot cultivate, but he can.

Therefore, it's natural that it won't be handed over.

"Thank you for the reminder, Seventh Ancestor. I understand."

"You can decide for yourself. That's all I have to say. There's one more thing I forgot to tell you. Your Empress seems to value you highly. The immortal artifacts that just arrived in the capital were all aimed at this place. Those are things used to suppress fortune."

She almost used me.

Otherwise, I wouldn't have been in such a hurry to take action.

"You and her aren't having an affair, are you?"

"I wouldn't dare!" Lu Ming quickly replied.

At the same time, I felt a little ashamed; Yu Sanjian dared to say anything.

"Haha, I was just kidding, look how scared you were!"

After Yu Sanjian finished speaking, he vanished from the spot in a flash.

After he left.

Lu Ming finally let out a sigh of relief.

Then, they walked out of the city gate.

Looking down, I realized that the battle was basically over.

The ground was covered in bloodstains, which were pitted and uneven.

This time, it seems that not many prisoners were captured.

There were corpses stretching as far as the eye could see.

The entire battlefield was stained with blood.

The thick blood mist still hadn't dissipated by this point.

"Tap!"

Just then, Wu Han strode over.

He was soaked in blood.

Blood dripped continuously from the gaps in the nail plates.

"My lord, the Prince of Langya has already escaped. In this battle, we killed more than 200,000 enemies, including two experts at the Purple Mansion Realm and five at the Golden Core Realm. 30,000 of his city guards also died in battle."

Wu Han's voice was somewhat low at this moment.

This battle was too brutal.

The enemy's experts far outnumbered us; if it weren't for the military formations holding us back...

I'm afraid that I'll be defeated by the skilled opponent right from the start.

Lu Ming's gaze remained fixed on the battlefield. After a moment, he said, "After we get back, distribute the compensation to all the brothers who died in battle. The days ahead are probably going to be even tougher. Tell everyone to cultivate diligently."

Otherwise, these fourteen states might not be able to be held.

"Yes, sir!" Wu Han said solemnly.

Then, at Lu Ming's signal, he withdrew.

And in the battlefield below.

The bodies of many rebels have been piled up and are being burned.

As for the soldiers who died under Lu Ming's command, they will be taken back.

"Hulala"

A gust of wind blew by.

Let the battle flags on the city walls make their voices heard.

Lu Ming looked at the fields outside the city, which had been ravaged beyond recognition.

Autumn has arrived before we knew it.

Then, they went down the city wall.

Heading towards the Jiangzhou Governor's Office.

After returning from the capital, Lu Ming went straight to Jiangzhou.

Li Xirou was settled in the government office.

When I entered the backyard, I saw the other person busy in the kitchen.

Upon discovering that Lu Ming had returned, a look of surprise and delight appeared on her face.

Then she stepped forward and said, "Knowing that the battle was over, I prepared some food. Husband, please wait a moment, it will be ready soon."

Li Xirou's voice was cheerful.

Clearly, Lu Ming's return made her very happy.

"Okay, I'll wait." After saying that, Lu Ming sat down at the stone table in the garden.

He was drinking the tea that his wife had already brewed.

Then, the system store was opened.

Let's see how many points we got this time.

"Ninety-eight million, that's quite a lot."

Looking at the numbers above, Lu Ming raised an eyebrow.

Then, a look of satisfaction appeared on his face.

Upon returning this time, he planned to first do his best to strengthen his own and his subordinates' capabilities.

Otherwise, we would be too passive when facing the enemy.

Furthermore, the Queen has already approved the opening of the sea to the sea within her territory.

He plans to build more warships.

Then we can catch more sea fish in the nearshore waters.

The meat of those monsters living in the sea is indeed of good quality, and most importantly...

It is comparable to a great medicine of flesh and blood, and has the effect of improving cultivation.

It can also relieve some of your stress.

At that time, we can form a navy to hunt and kill sea monsters in the sea.

You can also look for suitable business opportunities outside your territory.

I am truly poor now.

So much time has passed, he estimated that there probably wasn't much left in the treasury.

He was needed to solve every problem.

"My lord, dinner is ready!"

As Li Xirou spoke, the food was brought up.

"These are all specialties of Jiangzhou, especially the river fish from Jiangzhou, which tastes especially delicious. Why don't you try some?"

She said with a smile, and sat down next to Lu Ming.

"Okay, let me try!"

As he spoke, he picked up a piece of meat and put it in his mouth.

Li Xirou poured him a glass of wine.

It was already afternoon when the two finished their meal.

Lu Ming looked at his wife, who was preparing to go back to the house, and said, "We'll return to Hongdu Prefecture tomorrow. Let's get ready tonight."

"Mmm!" Li Xirou responded.

They then entered the house.

Lu Ming, meanwhile, sipped his tea while pondering how he should deal with the various sects.

He believed that the other party would not give up the opportunity to obtain the geomancer's inheritance.

Their attacks will continue unabated.

"call!"

After letting out a soft breath.

Lu Ming opened the system shop again, ready to see what items could improve his strength.

Fortunately, all of his generals have now arrived.

Once the items are exchanged, they can be distributed directly so that the students can break through to higher levels after returning home.

Thank you so much, Wanxu, for the 5000 Qidian Coins reward! And thank you to all the other contributors for the monthly tickets!
