Chapter 390: Two-level reversal, downwind!

Facing this powerful offensive, Sun Liu'er's expression didn't change; he didn't retreat but advanced, activating the vigorous qi within his body, and the Obedient Heart Iron Rod turned into a blue-green light that went up to meet it.

"Come fight!"

He let out a loud shout, his voice filled with heroism and determination.

"Ding! Sun Liu'er's skill Overlord Absolute effect two triggers again twice, power +1+1, Six Ear Skill effect one triggers again, power +6."

"Current Sun Liu'er power value 108+2+12+4+10+4, rising to 140!"

"Clang!"

Sparks flew everywhere, and both figures retreated several steps after the impact.

Weichi Wudi, taking advantage of his retreat, again activated the vigorous qi within his body; the deep blue light became even more intense, as if it wanted to dye the entire battlefield blue.

He again charged at Sun Liu'er, his halberd technique becoming more fierce, the offensive like a tide.

However, Sun Liu'er was like an immovable mountain; no matter how Weichi Wudi attacked, he could easily defuse it and even find opportunities to counterattack while defending.

The Obedient Heart Iron Rod danced faster and faster, the azure vigorous qi tracing dazzling arcs across the battlefield.

As time passed, Weichi Wudi, who kept his vigorous qi running at high speed, began to feel somewhat fatigued.

His charging momentum gradually weakened, while Sun Liu'er, who had copied the Overlord Absolute skill, seemed to grow braver with each battle, each attack becoming more fierce.

He retreated a few steps, opening distance from Weichi Wudi, then took a deep breath and activated the vigorous qi within his body.

"Ha!"

Sun Liu'er let out a loud shout, the Obedient Heart Iron Rod turning into a blue-green light, and charged at Weichi Wudi with greater speed.

"Ding! Sun Liu'er's skill Overlord Absolute effect three activates!"

Currently in charging state, power again +2.

"Current Sun Liu'er power value rises to 142!"

This charging momentum was more violent than Weichi Wudi's previous charge, as if it wanted to tear the entire battlefield apart.

Seeing this, Weichi Wudi's heart jolted.

He gritted his teeth, pushing the vigorous qi within his body to the extreme, and the Heaven Slaughter Halberd burst forth with an even more dazzling light.

He went up to meet Sun Liu'er's charge, and their weapons collided again in midair.

"Boom!"

The huge sound reverberated across the battlefield, and the two figures separated once again.

However, this time Weichi Wudi felt his arm go numb, and the Heaven Slaughter Halberd almost slipped from his grasp.

But Sun Liu'er didn't give Weichi Wudi much time to think; he launched another charge, the azure vigorous qi surging like a giant dragon toward Weichi Wudi.

Weichi Wudi could only grit his teeth and meet him; their battle entered another stalemate.

However, this time the situation was reversed.

Originally, Weichi Wudi had been in the upper-hand state before, but now for the first time he began to be suppressed by the opposing Sun Liu'er.

Moreover, as time passed, Weichi Wudi increasingly felt a bit of heart palpitations.

Each of his attacks was easily defused by Sun Liu'er, while Sun Liu'er's attacks became increasingly fierce.

A huge pressure surged from all directions, as if it wanted to crush him.

"Ah!"

Weichi Wudi let out a loud cry, exerting all his strength to swing a halberd in an attempt to break the deadlock.

However, Sun Liu'er, as if anticipating it, easily dodged the strike and then struck back with a backhand, pushing Weichi Wudi back several steps.

Weichi Wudi felt a surge of qi and blood, and involuntarily arose a sense of puzzlement; he had never encountered such an uncanny opponent.

No matter how he erupted his vigorous qi, the opposing side could always keep up with his eruption.

Clearly, at first glance at this guy, he hadn't felt how great the pressure was.

How come the more they fought, the more wrong it felt!

But Sun Liu'er didn't give him much time to catch his breath; instead, he launched another fierce attack.

The azure vigorous qi surged wildly across the battlefield, as if it wanted to devour everything.

Weichi Wudi could only defend passively, feeling as if he were caught in a huge vortex from which he could not escape.

Seeing himself gradually fall into a disadvantage, Weichi Wudi gradually began to feel the urge to retreat.

Although Sun Liu'er's strength was uncanny and powerful.

But overall, it didn't give him a feeling of being completely unable to escape.

In his mind, even if he wasn't a match for Sun Liu'er at the moment, if he wanted to leave, Sun Liu'er shouldn't yet have the ability to stop him.

Thinking this through, Weichi Wudi made up his mind and decided to look for an opportunity to withdraw.

He feinted a move, using the momentum to step back, while simultaneously activating the vigorous qi within his body, ready to withdraw from the battlefield at any moment.

"You want to escape? Not that easy!"

Sun Liu'er saw this, gave a cold chuckle, and said.

Before his words even fell, his figure flashed, tightly entwining Weichi Wudi's steps as he tried to leave.

Weichi Wudi secretly marveled, not expecting Sun Liu'er's speed to be so fast.

He took a deep breath, knowing he must not panic now and must find every way to break out.

The two clashed again, the deep blue vigorous qi and the azure vigorous qi colliding fiercely on the battlefield, producing a deafening sound.

Weichi Wudi fought while retreating, trying to find a breakthrough, while Sun Liu'er pressed step by step, giving no chance for the opponent to escape.

The two figures moved swiftly again amidst the firelight, the surging vigorous qi pushing the battlefield's atmosphere to a climax.

On the fierce battlefield, the clash between Weichi Wudi and Sun Liu'er grew ever more intense, vigorous qi overflowing, the roar unceasing.

However, outside this clamor of battle, on a high ground behind the battlefield, the master of the Cangzhou Army, Su Ye, was quietly observing this showdown.

Beside him stood the Guardian General Xuanwu, and the soy sauce guy Xu Chu.

On Su Ye's other side stood a handsome and spirited young woman.

She wore a form-fitting battle outfit that made her look tall and agile, with five exquisite quivers hanging from her waist, and in her hand she held a magnificently splendid great bow—the Vermilion Bird Heaven-Burning Bow.

The bow was entirely crimson, as if scorched by flames, its body carved with a lifelike vermilion bird pattern that seemed ready to spread its wings and take flight at any moment.

At this moment, Su Ye saw that Weichi Wudi was already showing signs of defeat, and feeling inclined to retreat, he gave a slight nod to signal Zhu Que beside him.

Zhu Que instantly understood, she lithely turned her body and slowly drew an arrow from the quiver.

This arrow was no ordinary thing—its shaft was tightly wrapped in a vermilion bird embroidered with red thread, the bird depicted with wings spread as if about to fly, vivid and lifelike.

In the sunlight, the vermilion bird's scarlet feathers sparkled, like strings of scarlet tassels swaying gently, so beautiful it took one's breath away.

The arrowhead was carefully ground into a triangular pyramid, its tip slightly curved upward, resembling the sharp beak of the vermilion bird.

The arrow shaft, meanwhile, was made of refined red wood, carved with exquisite patterns everywhere, each detail so delicate and full of artistic feeling.

"Are you ready?"

Su Ye asked softly.

"Anytime."

Zhu Que replied, her voice clear and firm.

She gently stroked the arrow, as if communicating with an old friend.

Taking a deep breath, she slowly nocked the arrow onto the string of the Vermilion Bird Heaven-Burning Bow.
