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

Chapter 78 Fallacies?

A thick mist of blood enveloped Lu Ming, just like a burning flame.

The remaining three wounded rebel experts all showed horror in their eyes.

They had seen experts before, but they had never imagined that a mere True Essence could unleash such combat power.

"what!"

The powerful warrior, carrying a warhammer, roared despite the blood gushing from his mouth and nose. His teeth were filled with crimson, making him look somewhat ferocious.

The warhammer, about the size of a human head, was covered with spikes.

When it was swung open, the iron chain was taut and made a piercing buzzing sound as it slammed down on Lu Ming again.

The heavy body tilted at this moment.

I could feel the power of the enemy's attack.

Lu Ming dared not be careless. He swung his halberd, seemingly a casual strike, but at the moment of impact with the hammer.

The heavy and swift warhammer was bounced back even faster, as if a mouse had seen a cat.

The force it carried was several times greater than before.

"Boom!" It landed directly on the original owner who couldn't dodge in time.

A perfectly healthy head was blown apart.

The large, headless body fell straight to the ground.

Lu Ming's strength had deterred the surrounding rebel warriors from advancing.

The hands gripping the weapons trembled uncontrollably.

Looking at the other person, their eyes were filled with fear.

The remaining two Qi Refining Realm experts also retreated after standing up.

Especially the expert who used the eagle claw, he knew all too well how much power he had used in that claw strike.

But the moment Lu Ming grabbed him.

It was as if he had been crushed by a prehistoric beast, giving him no chance to react at all, before he was thrown out.

This person's strength far exceeded his expectations.

However, they were unwilling to go up again, but Lu Ming would not give them that chance.

He urged his warhorse forward.

The pace was not fast, but very steady.

The halberd trailed behind him, its blade scraping against the ground and colliding with the gravel.

It emitted a piercing sound and also sparked bursts of fireworks.

Only a master would know just how much power was used in this seemingly casual halberd-dragging technique.

With no way to retreat, they realized they had nowhere left to go.

The man, bound by chains, roared angrily.

The steel chain was stretched taut and made a clanging sound.

With a quick step forward, the fist, enveloped in dark, powerful energy, once again hurtled towards Lu Ming.

I want to make one last desperate attempt.

"Swoosh!" The Great Wilderness Halberd emerged at an incredibly tricky angle, piercing the man's chest before he could even get close.

Or you may feel pain in your body.

When he looked down, he only found that the halberd handle was covered with his own blood.

Then, Lu Ming lifted his body up with one hand.

This brutal scene caused the surrounding rebels to retreat again, but the Ironclad Cavalry's eyes burned with fervor.

Looking at Lu Ming was as if he were a god.

"Whoosh!" The rebel expert, who had already lost an arm, could no longer control himself.

Despite the pain in his right arm, he flew away into the distance.

His footsteps pounded on the shoulders of the rebels, and in his fear, he lost control of his strength, causing many to break their bones.

But he couldn't care less about that now; his only thought was to get away from Lu Ming.

However, this approach instantly threw the rebel army, centered around Lu Ming, into chaos.

Some wanted to escape, while others wanted to avoid being trampled by the worshipper.

For a moment, chaos ensued.

Looking at this scene.

Lu Ming's lips curled up; he knew in his heart that his opportunity had arrived.

He spurred his warhorse once more and charged toward Hua Yong.

This is the real opponent.

As long as the opponent is killed.

This battle is now in our grasp.

The battle that just took place shocked everyone on the city walls.

Wang Yue, who had just been worried, shouted, "Brother-in-law is awesome!"

His voice was filled with pride.

"Bang!" Qian Yong's one arm slammed heavily against the city wall.

"Well done! I never expected to have such a valiant subordinate under my command. It is truly my good fortune!"

Now he sees hope for survival, and at the same time he understands that it will probably be Lu Ming's turn to take care of him in the future.

Of course, I didn't hold back my praise.

The head of the Baili family looked at his eldest son with a complicated expression. "You have good judgment. Get along well with Commandant Lu in the future."

"The child is awake," Baili Fei said, bowing.

Zhang Ming watched all this with a complicated expression.

He seemed lost in thought. "Bang!" Just then, Li Xun's hand slapped him on the shoulder.

"Don't overthink it. My Li family should be proud to have a brother-in-law like this." His voice was very soft.

Zhang Ming nodded with difficulty.

Meanwhile, in the Great Yu court, the Empress sat on the dragon throne, her figure partially obscured by a beaded curtain of gold beads strung together in front of her.

It appears mysterious and noble.

In the spacious, quiet, and gold-themed hall, rows of golden pillars are carved with dragons and phoenixes, seemingly about to leap out.

The courtiers stood bowing below, appearing exceptionally small.

On either side stood palace guards holding golden maces, their armor also gold.

Staring straight ahead without looking to the side.

"Speak if you have something to say, otherwise leave the court!" the eunuch's shrill voice rang out.

The vibrations caused people's eardrums to deafen.

The dust in my hand trembled slightly.

"Your Majesty, I have a memorial to present!" An old but upright figure stepped forward.

It was Li Yan.

Dressed in a crimson official robe and with a jade belt around his waist, he exuded supreme majesty with every gesture.

"Speak!" the Empress's cold voice rang out.

"Rebels are rampant in Yunzhou. Zhelong Prefecture has already fallen, and now they have launched a surprise attack on Hongdu Prefecture. This morning, I received news that the prefecture has been besieged for more than ten days. I'm afraid the entire Hongdu Prefecture is already in ruins!"

I believe that the reason this situation has spiraled out of control is due to the fault of the General Who Conquers the South.

As a general, his failure to discern the enemy's intentions, leading to the complete collapse of the battle line, carries an undeniable responsibility!

"Prime Minister, your words are wrong. The rebels are cunning. Who could have predicted that they would turn around and attack Hongdu Prefecture? Moreover, the rebels have grown too powerful. Nearly 100,000 troops have entered the country like a flood. Yunzhou is in a corner of the country, and its military is depleted."

It couldn't provide much help to the General Who Conquers the South, so what happened now is understandable.

If someone could truly turn the tide, that would be a miracle!

He Song glanced at the Prince Yong, who was resting with his eyes closed, and stepped forward to explain.

He glared at Li Yan at the same time.

That old guy, he never lets you have an easy time.

They're always the ones stirring up trouble.

"So, according to the Grand Preceptor, whoever goes to this battle will inevitably lose? The General Who Conquers the South has failed in his duty, and everyone else must also be incompetent fools? Where will you, as a general, be placed!" Li Yan's words were sharp, and with just one sentence, he put He Song in a very difficult position.

But for the sake of his apprentice, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and strike up a conversation.

"What do you mean by this, Prime Minister? When did I say such a thing? I only believe that General Zheng Nan is no less capable than anyone else. This expedition was not a failure in terms of fighting spirit!"

However, the more He Song tried to explain, the worse it got.

The poor explanation drew angry glares from many military officers.

In terms of strength, even a hundred Li Yans tied together might not be able to withstand a single sword strike from him, but in court debates, he is truly no match.

In just a few words, he was placed on the opposite side of the military generals in the court.

However, he had great confidence in the Crown Prince Yong and genuinely believed that no one else could have done better.

After all, the other party has already passed the test of the immortal sect and has extraordinary talent.

Besides being exceptionally talented himself, he also has a highly skilled companion by his side. If even he cannot defeat him...

It's even less likely for others.

"Nonsense!" Li Yan said coldly.

He Song's face twitched slightly.

As the Grand Preceptor of the Great Yu Kingdom, he also has the support of the immortal sects behind him.

When had he ever been so humiliated?

Just as he was about to argue again...

"Enough!" The Empress's voice rang out from behind the curtain.

The main hall fell silent once more.

"I urge the General Who Conquers the South to quell the rebellion as soon as possible. If any further mistakes are made, he will be punished for both crimes!" the Empress's voice rang out.

With a flick of her long sleeves embroidered with gold dragon patterns.

Then they left the main hall.

Although the court is corrupt, the Empress of Great Yu still wields great power, so even if there are treacherous officials, they only dare to make small moves in secret.

On the surface, they would never dare to oppose them.

As long as there is no great chaos in the world, she remains the supreme ruler.

After the other party left, the courtiers below also bowed and withdrew.

As soon as everyone arrived at the door, He Song, ignoring the surprised looks of those around him, said in a cold tone, "Prime Minister Li, why bother? It's not that I didn't give you face back then, it's just that the person you recommended couldn't possibly be better than the Prince Yong's heir."

If you were in my shoes, you would have made the same choice. It's only human nature. It's not worth ruining our relationship over this!
"With all the ministers here today, they can bear witness that their future paths will be worlds apart!" After losing the argument in the court, He Song was clearly unconvinced and, in front of everyone, once again exposed Li Yan's shortcomings.

They even used their disciples to strike at the opponent again.

"You're judging a gentleman by your own petty standards!" Li Yan said, then turned and left.

The courtiers bowed their heads and left, their steps hurried.

When the two big shots clashed, they really didn't dare to respond.

Meanwhile, in the imperial court, people were furious because of the matter in Yunzhou.

At this moment, Lu Ming had already fought his way through the rebel army and arrived in front of Hua Yong.

The blood-stained halberd pointed straight ahead.

The halberd blade trembled incessantly, bringing immense pressure to the wearer.
