After the fairy disappeared

Chapter 1387 Don’t Run, Don’t Run
Although they are also experts in combat, they lack the overall perspective that is unique to famous and great generals.

Xue Zongwu is in his forties this year. His martial arts, strength, physical fitness and experience have just reached their peak. As soon as he fought with the black-armored leader, he was secretly frightened.

This guy is so tough, his knife is hard and his hands are even tougher!
Xue Zongwu's personal weapon is a pair of purple gold melon hammers, treasures left over from the Middle Ages. After being improved by famous masters, the melon hammers can be held with both hands or combined into long-handled weapons. Chains can also be extended from the end of the handles to make them meteor hammers.

This pair of purple gold melon hammers has a peculiar characteristic called "one shock and three tremors". When they collide with other weapons, they will cause continuous shocks, at least twice and at most four or five times. Practitioners with weaker strength will feel like they have been hit hard and cannot even hold their weapons.

Xue Zongwu had killed a fierce general from Luodian before. The general was known to be extremely powerful, but the special properties of the purple gold hammer caused his knuckles to be broken. When he died, his hands were covered in blood and he couldn't even hold the weapon.

The black-armored leader in front of him took it all in silence, acting as if nothing had happened!
He naturally didn't know about the strange bond between the Fu Sheng Sword and He Lingchuan. As long as the sword was in He Lingchuan's hand, it was almost impossible for him to slip out of his hand.

The two sides engaged in close combat, and the numerous ghostly shadows lingering around the black armor inevitably passed through Xue Shouwu's body, making him feel uneasy.

It was as if something was staring at him and spying on him with malicious intent, waiting for him to make a mistake or get hurt. Although it had not yet attacked, Xue Zongwu was subconsciously alert.

These ghost things don’t seem like magical powers at all, because they cannot be immune to Yuanli!

Yes, facing the enemy of unknown origin, he used his Yuanli at the first moment.

Both of them wanted to knock out their opponents and end the fight in the shortest possible time, but the fight ended in a stalemate.

Xue Zongwu's eyes flickered, and he suddenly said: "The Nine Nether Emperor has a very intimidating name, but he is just a man!"

The opponent was tough, but he was certain as soon as they started fighting that this was a human being!

He is a strong man who has experienced many battles, but he is not a god like Miaozhantian.

The "Nine Nether Emperor" who is widely rumored among the people is just a human in disguise!
How can a mere human being be qualified to judge the generals of Yao State? How can he be qualified to punish on behalf of Heaven!
The black-armored leader chuckled: "Death is imminent, and you still don't know how to be respectful!"

Xue Zongwu also sneered: "Even God doesn't dare to take me away, how can you be the one to make a fool of yourself?"

There were a few clanging sounds of metal and iron, accompanied by the deep and powerful words of the black-armored leader:
"How do you know that I am not God's will?"

Over there, the Weng brothers fought back to back with six soldiers from the Xue family. Weng Xing's hand was injured and he couldn't use a weapon, so the two brothers only had three hands to use. They seemed to be getting braver and braver, but in fact they were just full of ruthlessness.

In their current state, it is really difficult for them to compete with the six elite soldiers trained by Xue Zongwu himself.

Among the six were Xue Zongwu's two lieutenants, Lu Ping and Wang Xining, who were both skilled in martial arts and experienced in fighting. They were brothers on the battlefield with You Lin, who was killed by He Lingchuan earlier. They were shocked and angry when they saw You Lin's death, and they didn't waste words when they came up, and they would kill the brothers every time to save them.

What’s even more terrible is that their cooperation is no worse than that of the Weng brothers.

Xue Zongwu once commented in a martial arts competition that even if the two of them faced him, they would be undefeated for dozens of rounds.

The power exerted by these two people was greater than that of the remaining four combined, and the Weng brothers had to grit their teeth to barely hold on.

If Deputy General You Lin had not been killed by Emperor Jiuyou just now, with the three deputy generals attacking together, the Weng brothers might not have been able to hold out for long.

What's more, these opponents also have Yuanli.

At this point it was clear that Weng Su had a lot of fancy tricks up his sleeve, such as the Yellow Turban Warriors and the Quicksand Talisman Formation. Although they might not cause much damage to the elite soldiers protected by their elemental power, combined with Weng Xing's various explosive hidden weapons, they were able to drag on time.

Weng Xing dodged a sweeping blow and took the time to ask his brother in code: "Retreat or not?"

With the black-armored leader attracting fire, if they turn around and flee, there will be few guards chasing them.

Weng Su was also a little hesitant. Don't look at the black-armored leader and Xue Zongwu fighting hard, in fact, the advantage of time is in the hands of Xue the Butcher. If the two brothers don't run now, will there be a chance later?

But if they ran away, that would be too disloyal! They were clearly here to save them.

Uh, that’s not right. I may not be here specifically to save people.

But the black-armored leader did not stand by and watch them die. Could they be ungrateful and run away now?
If he slips away tonight, he might not be able to think clearly during his practice for decades to come!

Weng Su gritted his teeth and made a decision: "If we hold on a little longer, Emperor Jiuyou might be able to kill this bastard!"

Really? Weng Xing wasn't sure, but his brother must have seen something when he said that.

He immediately calmed down.

In fact, Weng Su was not sure either. Xue Gouze had profound cultivation and excellent military equipment. He was as tough as a turtle and had an extremely pure Yuan force. He could exert at least 130% of his abilities. How powerful must the Nine Nether Emperor be to kill him?
Xue Zongwu said that the enemy was human, not god, and he guessed it. He, Weng Su, was not an ignorant mortal, but...

Wait a little longer, wait a little longer!

The soul-catching mirror on the other side said to He Lingchuan, "Those two fools are blocking the danger fraught with danger. I'm afraid they won't be able to hold on for too long."

The Weng brothers are both good fighters, but Weng Xing was injured in the battle against Xue Zongwu and one of his hands was disabled. His other skills have also been used up. Several of Xue Zongwu's men are also unexpectedly difficult to beat. Jingzi is not optimistic about the two of them.

After a few breaths, the mirror said again: "They are talking in code. Hey, is your guess the same as mine?"

During the fierce battle, He Lingchuan was also keeping an eye on all directions, and occasionally with a glance, he could see the predicament of the Weng brothers.

Honestly speaking, the situation of these two brothers is not optimistic. The wisest choice is to turn around and run away, leaving Emperor Jiuyou behind as the last one.

After all, survival is human instinct.

They were talking in code, probably discussing whether to run or not. If they ran too late, they would probably die.

But they seemed to have chosen to stay and fight alongside He Lingchuan.

This life-or-death decision is not easy.

In just a short while, both of them had several wounds on their bodies, and the situation became increasingly critical.

The Soul Mirror also said, "These two guys are very loyal for not wanting to run away first!"

It's okay to have a firm stand and be loyal.

They also completed the task assigned to them by Emperor Jiuyou very well, and indeed tied up Xue Zongwu's men, allowing He Lingchuan to deal with Xue Zongwu with peace of mind.

One on one, best chance.

"Hey, what are you looking at?" He Lingchuan was distracted for a moment, and Xue Zongwu immediately sensed something. He swung a pair of purple gold hammers and smashed them hard on the Fu Sheng Knife.

He Lingchuan didn't fight him to death, but took two steps back. He swung his left hand and threw a few dark green balls in the direction of the Weng brothers.

As the thrown objects today were very unstable, no one dared to catch or knock them away, and everyone quickly dodged.

This thing is oval in shape, the size and shape of an olive. It takes root, grows branches and leaves as soon as it hits the ground, without wasting a second.

In a short while, they grew a strong and sturdy body and seven or eight branches that could serve as arms.

Without saying a word, the branches hit the Weng brothers' opponents.

There are rows of hard thorns on the branches, similar to maces, and anyone who is hit by them will scream like a ghost.

Anyone with some knowledge would know that this is a tree demon, but there is actually a human face growing on the tree trunk.

The three or four faces were different, some had big beards, some had shoe handles, and all had ferocious expressions, their eyes were full of resentment. Three of them were small, only as tall as an average person's chest, but they could move and jump easily, and their movements were too agile to be a tree demon; the largest one was ten feet tall, and its movements were relatively slow, but its body was as hard as iron, and its surface was covered with vines. When Lu Ping's knife hit the tree, it would cut the vines first, and the splashing white juice would touch the skin, causing a pain and itch.

When these tree monsters appeared, they not only had two fists and four hands, but dozens of branch-like arms, which instantly disrupted the battle formation formed by Lu Ping and others.

The pressure on the Weng brothers suddenly eased, and they turned around and hid behind the giant tree monster.

When Lu Ping and others rushed over, they played hide-and-seek with the tree demon.

The bark of this tree demon was as hard as iron. Even with the help of the Xue family's troops, they could only cut three inches into the bark at most. It also emitted a strange fragrance that made people sneeze when they smelled it.

Every time an "Ah-chu" sound is heard, the moves are inevitably distorted.

The Weng brothers watched and were amazed. These tree demons had hard skin and were very agile. If they released a few more of them, they would be great helpers in group fights.

Of course they didn't know that these were the fruits grown in the Ju Luo Treasure Box.

The true form of the Ghost King Xuanlu was hidden in the human-faced peach tree in the treasure box. He Lingchuan cut down the human-faced peach and planted branches of the Juluo tree in the treasure box again. Then the flowers grown by the Juluo tree in the treasure box can heal the soul injury, and the fruits can turn into a tree demon to help the master fight.

Of course, the tree in the box needs souls as nutrients to grow. It just so happened that the Black Armor Army had recently launched a series of attacks and captured a large number of evil souls. He Lingchuan fed them to the Ju Luo Treasure Box as fertilizer, which gave birth to several fruits.

After using it once, he found that this thing was very convenient. If he had enough Guro fruits, he could raise a hard-skinned army in an instant.

Although they are not good at fighting against Yuanli, and cannot obey orders and control them as easily as elite troops, they are still good helpers on the battlefield.

The largest tree demon hissed, "Kill, kill, kill you all!"

The voice is not as deep as that of other tree spirits, but a bit hoarse.

Xue Zongwu had just hit the Nine Nether Emperor's chest armor with his shoulder, and the power suddenly exploded. He felt that the sound was somewhat familiar. He took a quick glance in his busy schedule and saw something he had never expected: "Zhao Guangzhi?"

He guarded the northern line of Yao State, confronted the Luodian people for many years, and also recognized Zhao Guangzhi.

Some time ago, news of Zhao Guangzhi's death came from the west. So when Xue Zongwu suddenly saw Zhao Guangzhi, whose face was growing on a tree demon, he was shocked beyond words.
