Tumor Sword Immortal

Chapter 379 Breakout
Beneath his clothes, golden-red tattoos began to unfold like a spider web.

With her long, black hair flying wildly and the sound of wind breaking through the air from the violent movement, her strong, steel body knocked Ma Shilin to the ground almost instantly!
As Feng Yao pressed Elder Ma's head down and slammed it heavily onto the floor, the resulting gust of wind startled the other cultivators around them.

Luo Xiaojin was especially astonished; she never expected that someone would come to her rescue in this situation.

Needless to say, Li Qing sent her to do this kind of thing, which clearly shows that he doesn't care whether she can return to Beishi City.

Trapped in a perilous situation, the girl's moon-white dress seemed to dazzle Luo Xiaojin's eyes.

I think I saw this girl when I went up the mountain.

Yes, she had come all the way to Jiangcheng Mountain as a rogue cultivator, and she had no idea when she entered Wangjiang Tower...

Wait, I remember, she seemed to have someone with her.

The man who had accompanied them arrived. He was dressed in the disciple's robes of Jiangcheng Mountain, with a small fan in his left hand and a rotten wooden sword in his right. He walked up to Feng Yao, looked down at Ma Shilin who was being held down on the ground, and said, "Success! Success! Get out of here!"

He didn't even glance at Luo Xiaojin.

But Luo Xiaojin recognized him at a glance.

“Pei… Pei Xia?!”

Yes, when Zhao Beishi and the others got into trouble, she had already interrogated Pei Xiu and learned about Pei Xia's whereabouts in Qinzhou.

However, Qinzhou is so large, and without the robust intelligence system of the Great Ling Dynasty, Luo Xiaojin had no hope of capturing Pei Xia.

She never expected that, by sheer coincidence, Pei Xia would also be on Jiangcheng Mountain.

No wonder the man in black next to the girl looked familiar!
Pei Xia finally deigned to look up at her, and without saying anything else, simply clicked her tongue and said, "Tsk."

It was as if we had encountered something unlucky.

After finishing, without caring about Luo Xiaojin, Feng Yao, carrying Ma Shilin and with Pei Xia close behind, prepared to rush out of Wangjiang Tower.

The strongest on Luo Xiaojin's side is naturally Chen Qianye.

This general with neat short black hair was fighting under the green tree at Wangjiang Tower, simultaneously with the ship captain, a general surnamed Sun, and the old gluttonous traveler from the Vajra Realm.

Moreover, judging from the situation, it's not that he's entangled; on the contrary, he's suppressing the other two.

To be able to occupy a place among the three extraordinary strategies, the military strategists themselves have a very unique way of cultivating themselves.

There is a common saying that there are three levels of kills: a hundred-killer, a thousand-killer, and a ten-thousand-killer. These levels are based on the number of heads on the battlefield, which often leads to a misconception that one is strong simply because they have killed a lot of people.

In fact, the term "human killer" is just a convenient way of distinguishing between different types of soldiers. The strength of a military strategist usually depends on the "military force" he commands.

Take General Sun for example. In terms of skill level, he is a master of killing a thousand men. He once roamed the battlefield in his youth and now commands four thousand men from the two river shipping divisions. Although this force is located in a strategic location and has never been lax, it is situated in the heart of Eastern Qin and rarely engages in battle except for occasionally suppressing refugees and bandits. Therefore, the "military power" that General Sun carries is much weaker.

On the contrary, Chen Qianye has been following Li Qing since he started his career, and has almost never left the front line of the battlefield in the past ten years. He is a top-notch "spearhead" who has been tempered by time.

He was Li Qing's deputy general, and the military force he commanded came from the entire Tiger Marquis Army. This was a fierce and warlike army that never stopped fighting tough battles. Therefore, the military force emanating from Chen Qianye was so real, carrying a metallic and murderous aura, and its sharpness was fully revealed!
If one can reach the level of "blood-suppressing the nation" like Xie Zu, their military strength will be deeply bound to the fate of the nation. For example, in the battle between Da Ling and the Northern Barbarians, the more intense the battle, the stronger Xie Zu will become.

This is why the Blood Town Kingdom has such a powerful deterrent effect. When it's weak, it treats Heavenly Consciousness like a dog; when it's strong, it can treat Dao Proving like a dog!

If the war becomes so fierce that the country is shattered and survival is at stake, then every single one of the Blood Guardians in history books at that stage is a reincarnated demon god who slaughters until the sun and moon are obliterated.

In a sense, it can also be seen as a guarantee that it is difficult for a war of annihilation to occur between major powers; the "blood-based deterrent" is a kind of deterrent.

Pei Xia had this worry when he and Han Youzhi encountered the Yi people in the tunnel. Don't be fooled by Han's peak Transformation Realm level. Given the situation of the battle between Da Ling and the Northern Yi at that time, let alone killing 10,000 people, even killing 1,000 would be difficult for Han.

Stealing a glance, Chen Qianye raised his foot, the sound of wind breaking like thunder tearing through the air. That damned Vajra Upper Realm cultivator's wrist bone was instantly broken, and the surrounding attacks from several experts seemed to only make the kid more courageous. So, if you have nothing better to do, don't go looking for trouble with these war demons.

With Ma Shilin in one hand and his iron fist in the other, Feng Yao charged forward, smashing through seven or eight people, his clothes splattered with blood and flesh.

Pei Xia followed behind her, wielding his sword in support, with a pill in his mouth, ready to draw his sword at any moment.

Thanks to the back door that Chen Qianye had taken with Pei Xia when they came in earlier, they were spared the need to break through the main entrance where the battle was most complicated. Instead, they slipped into the back room on the side and rushed out through the corridor.

The fresh air from the mountains and forests filled her nostrils, and Pei Xia took a deep breath: "Don't stop, keep running outside."

Feng Yao naturally obeyed.

To Pei Xia's surprise, there was actually a tail following her.

This tail belongs to none other than Luo Xiaojin.

Under Chao Cuo's tutelage over the past few years, Luo Xiaojin has become a completely different person, and she can see the situation clearly.

Although the fighting at Wangjiang Tower is intense, it certainly won't end anytime soon. If Li Qing's goal is to eliminate the leader of Dongqin here, then he will have to surround the mountain, and this process will not be short.

She's not Chen Qianye. With Luo Xiaojin's current limited cultivation level at the Opening Mansion Realm and the pills she carries, it's simply not enough to sustain her until Li Qing goes up the mountain.

So she had to run, or she would die at Wangjiang Tower.

Isn't it a coincidence? Whenever she was on the verge of death, Pei Xia would always come to guide her to survival.

Running along the mountain path for another cup of tea, the towering Wangjiang Tower now appears as just a pointed tip in the distance.

Pei Xia, catching her breath, patted Feng Yao's hand, then took out the black gourd and took a sip.

“Phew,” Pei Xia looked at Ma Shilin, who was being carried by Feng Yao, “Elder Ma, it’s been a long time.”

Ma Shilin was also a cultivator in the Iron Bone Realm. Although he was restrained, his injuries and the jolt were not enough to make him lose consciousness.

By this time, she had naturally realized that Pei Xia and this man surnamed Feng had been plotting something all along, but the phrase "long time no see" still puzzled her: "Have we met before?"

"Then why didn't you arrest my apprentice?"

This sentence immediately made Ma Shilin realize: "You're the one who was with that guy surnamed Jiang that night... Aren't you dead?"

I am dead?
Pei Xia was stunned for a moment, and before she could react, she saw Ma Shilin turn to look at Feng Yao: "Then you are the woman who stopped the ship at the ship's office that day. Didn't you die too?"

The day Jiang Shu was arrested, it was the Iron Bone Realm of Jiangcheng Mountain who came to capture him. Feng Yao had his spine broken and was left downstairs without breathing; he looked dead.

So his subordinates reported back that all of Jiang Shu's companions were dead.

Oh, oh, oh, no wonder Ma Shilin had no impression of or wariness of the two of them.

Pei Xia sneered: "Yes, he's dead. Isn't he here to claim your soul?"

Ma Shilin didn't speak, but stared intently at Pei Xia, as if trying to confirm something.

A moment later, she suddenly revealed a sinister smile: "You arrogant brat, do you think sending people to infiltrate my Jiangcheng Mountain will come without consequences?"

"What you rely on is nothing more than this woman surnamed Feng, but do you know that she took the Heart-Cursing Pill before entering Wangjiang Tower!"
