Chapter 931

So Mao Yi looked at the approaching righteous army with great pleasure, as if looking at tens of thousands of heads for merit. The two formations faced each other, and Xiangpang took off and leaped into the air without saying a word. His palms pulled, and he saw a purple thunder ball in the middle. The long-handled Pu Dao behind him flew out. Xiangpang grabbed the handle with his left hand and wiped the thunder ball on the blade with his right hand. Suddenly, the whole blade was entangled by purple thunder and lightning.

Xiangpang held the blade with both hands. By the time he landed, he had already crossed ten zhang, and the distance to Mao Yi's army was less than fifty zhang. At the same time, the army behind him had already started to trot and launch a charge. Xiangpang landed and slashed at the ground with one blade. Suddenly, dozens of thunder balls sneaked into the ground, twisting and rushing toward Mao Yi's army.

This commander-in-chief watched this scene happen, and his words could no longer be complete. "This time we will lose again... Eh? Why did I say lose?"

The thunder light under the ground passed through fifty zhang in the blink of an eye, and Xiangpang actually followed the thunder, flashing into Mao Yi's formation. The thunder ball exploded, and Xiangpang's body rotated, bringing the Pu Dao lightning to turn into thousands of thunder nets. "Sinking Thunder Hell!" Following the shout, thunder light burst within a hundred zhang, blade light rose everywhere, and the front formation was directly completely defeated by this blow.

Xiangpang leaped into the air from bottom to top, operating the long blade with both hands. The thunder light striking from the sky hit his blade. This person took the opportunity to pull up the blade light and thunder net raging on the ground, turning it into a chaotic slash from a high position. "Winter Thunder Thunderbolt!"

Bai Lang received the military report from the imperial court later. "Yo, Commander Mao had his head chopped off? Southwest is rotten? Let the boss worry about it; it's none of my business." He guarded the north and would never travel long distances to the south to suppress the rebellion. The Wolf Lord in the west was also stepping up his attacks, but the pass was steep, and the wolf soldiers led by the Wolf Lord found it difficult to cross the thunder pool.

But this direction was also constantly devouring the money and grain of the imperial court. The demon soldiers had thick skin and flesh, and ordinary human soldiers were really no match for the little demons. Moreover, this Wolf Lord was constantly driving demon tribes within a radius of thousands of miles to attack the pass. The replacement of personnel and medical compensation were simply splashing.

In the north, Timur had already ascended to the position of Great Khan. After hundreds of years, the northern nomadic tribes were unified in name again. This is a place where humans and demons live together, and since ancient times, it has been the enemy of the orthodox countries in the south. It has been loving and killing each other with the central plains dynasty for thousands of years. The unification of the grasslands means that this group of guys is going to move south on a large scale. This is a war between two national entities, no longer a military conflict like raiding for grain.

Bai Lang's guard was also almost formed. It should have had a nice name, such as Longxiang Guard or Shence Army, but Bai Lang casually gave it the name Yeluohuo... He didn't call it Yinqiang Xiaojie, which was already very polite to the Jingtai Emperor. These 1,800 people were all cavalry, and they were fully armored cavalry—men wore armor and horses wore leather armor. The soldiers' equipment ranged from long spears to crossbows and short weapons. It was a purely fancy team.

Except for the standard weapons, long spears, and armor, long-range weapons and short weapons were equipped according to personal habits. When engaging, they would first shoot arrows, then use long spears to form a formation to fight, and finally fight with short weapons. Moreover, everyone's martial arts had been pointed out by Bai Lang. Above the rank of centurion, everyone was a Grandmaster.

This is the Yeluohuo cavalry of Bailu Mountain...

Since the cavalry was formed, it naturally had to be used. How to use it? Raiding for grain.

Can't do anything else, can't you burn, kill, and loot?

Bai Lang immediately put on his gear, rode a spirit horse, and led these 1,800 cavalrymen to fight—this person only brought three days of food and killed his way into the grasslands. A Celestial Expert can look at Qi and sense vitality, so naturally, he can find places where ordinary people live within a thousand miles. Bai Lang just treated the Celestial Experts of the grasslands as fake and led his troops to directly raid the settlements of each tribe. "Kill those who can be killed, take away those who can be taken, and bring them back to the pass to sell," Bai Lang ordered.

No Celestial Expert came to intercept him. The Celestial Experts on the grasslands should know that he came out to raid for grain, but it doesn't matter. These small tribes are given to this border king of the Great Wu Dynasty to eat. He can eat however he wants, and it's over when he finishes eating. "It can be guessed that this group of guys will not deploy main forces within a thousand miles of the pass," Bai Lang also understood the thoughts of these guys. If they really wanted to fight him, it would definitely be a group of hundreds of thousands of cavalry moving south, not this kind of tribal migration-style invasion.

Bai Lang's lethality, Chilaowen had already set an example. Under normal circumstances, the Celestial Experts of the Northern Court did not want to compete one-on-one with this person. If two-on-one, they might be seriously injured, which is really not worth it. This youngest Celestial Expert is definitely one of the most difficult martial arts Celestial Experts. This fire-based divine skill, the Three Fires Returning to Origin Skill, naturally ranked among the top in the world's list of strange skills and arts, becoming a Heaven-level divine skill.

It's a pity that Bai Lang didn't start a sect, otherwise, disciples would definitely gather.

The Yeluohuo cavalry he pointed out almost all learned one or two martial arts derived from the Three Fires Returning to Origin Skill. Among them, those with outstanding martial arts wisdom could even summarize a complete set of fire-based martial arts. Some Grandmasters even relied on the insights of the fire-based martial arts taught and pointed out by Bai Lang to realize martial arts and break through to the level of Grandmaster. For a time, Bai Lang's Three Fires Returning to Origin Skill almost became the world's number one fire-based divine skill.

This raid for grain by Bai Lang had quite good results—he didn't take action, but watched his cavalry practice formations. Breaking those car circles temporarily set up by those tribes didn't lose any people—not a single one died, and there were only a few dozen injured, and not a single one was disabled. He killed more than 1,000 barbarians and demons. "I have to say that this group of guys is like mice, running away in all directions. If I don't take action myself, quite a few can really run away."

Bai Lang, of course, didn't personally take action to exterminate these barbarians, also holding his status.

He killed more than 1,000, and caught about 10,000—some were ignorant little demons. Bai Lang saw that they had no karma, so he turned these little demons into slaves of the princely mansion—these demons were mostly cattle, sheep, horses, and donkeys, and they could still do a lot of work. As for the captured grassland barbarians, they were sold as slaves within the pass, and the money from the sale was all distributed as rewards.

This army actually didn't value the so-called rewards very much. What they pursued was more progress in martial arts—although Bai Lang said to recruit strong men from the local province, in fact, those who came were martial artists who had quite a lot of money at home and had pursuits in martial arts. "This is actually a good family's son joining the army. It is said that strong armies since ancient times have all been based on good families." These good family sons had excellent martial arts, strict discipline, and obeyed orders, and their subjective initiative was strong. They were indeed first-class good seedlings.

Much stronger than the Forbidden Army in the capital...
