Chapter 84: The Turkic Tribe Invades Again

~10 min read 1,875 words

Clang!

The two blades of divine consciousness collided simultaneously.

After only one exchange.

Wu Tu's Soul Severing Strike was defeated on the spot.

Swish!

After Chu Feng's blade of divine consciousness defeated the Soul Severing Strike, it struck Wu Tu's head like lightning.

"Ah!"

Wu Tu let out a miserable shriek.

He only felt as if his head had been fiercely smashed by a giant hammer.

Afterward, his entire body plummeted rapidly from the sky like a shot-down fighter jet.

Bang!

Wu Tu's body made very intimate contact with the earth.

At this moment, the bones throughout his entire body felt as if they had been crushed by a giant boulder.

He completely lost the strength to stand up again.

But being unable to stand was one thing.

What he found most unacceptable was that his most prideful ability had actually lost to the opponent.

And the opponent was a youth who was ridiculously young.

This point was something he truly could not accept.

"No... impossible, how... how could I possibly be defeated!"

Wu Tu roared hysterically.

He could not accept his own defeat.

Because once he was defeated, the Wuji Tribe would surely face a catastrophic disaster.

"Old geezer, the tides of fortune turn; it's my turn now, prepare to meet your end!"

"No..."

Chu Feng couldn't be bothered to waste words with him.

With one blade, he directly severed Wu Tu's head to send him to the afterlife.

Wu Tu kicked his legs on the spot and stopped responding.

The former Wuji King, who had once become famous throughout the Turkic lands by defeating Cheng Liao with his Soul Severing Strike.

Had met his end right here.

"Phew, it's finally quiet; this can be considered collecting a bit of interest for the former Anwu Army!"

After finishing off Wu Tu.

Chu Feng carried his head and body and returned along the original path.

Guang Ling and Hong Ji, who were responsible for the perimeter, soon saw Chu Feng returning from the horizon.

But what made them somewhat surprised was.

That Chu Feng had actually brought back something extra in his hands.

"General, what is that in your hand..." Hong Ji asked, pointing at the corpse in Chu Feng's hand.

"Oh, this is the former King of the Turkic Wuji Tribe, Wu Tu!"

"What!"

The two were greatly shocked.

They dared not believe that what Chu Feng said was actually true.

Just by going out for a simple stroll, he had actually slaughtered the enemy's former King.

This was far too unexpected!

"Hey, Old Hong, this really seems to be Wu Tu!"

Guang Ling's knowledge was quite extensive.

He had once been fortunate enough to see the man.

Back then, Wu Tu already possessed the cultivation of a Grandmaster Great Perfection.

After so many years, the man should have already reached the cultivation of a Grandmaster.

Yet even so, he had still been slaughtered by Chu Feng.

For a moment.

Guang Ling felt even more awe toward Chu Feng.

"Immediately arrange for men to send Wu Tu's corpse back to Anwu County; the rest of the troops will continue to campaign against the enemy with me!"

"Yes, General!"

Soon, this news spread throughout the entire army.

The whole army learned that Chu Feng had slaughtered the enemy's former King, and a Grandmaster-level one at that.

Instantly, morale was greatly boosted, and their fighting spirit soared.

At the same time, a cavalry unit also returned to Anwu County with Wu Tu's corpse to report the good news.

This was truly a monumental piece of joyous news!

They had slaughtered Wu Tu, this former great enemy, which could be considered venting the pent-up anger for the soldiers of the former Anwu Army.

Meanwhile.

Dingning Pass.

Ever since the Left Worthy King was defeated at Dingning Pass last time, he fled back to the heartland of the Xiongnu in a sorry state.

During that time, he was almost captured alive by Zhao Hu.

This time, after resting and reorganizing throughout the winter.

The Left Worthy King led an army of two hundred thousand to make a comeback.

This time, he brought even more formidable forces.

He intends to break through Dingning Pass in one fell swoop to wash away his previous shame.

"Report!"

A messenger arrived at Zhao Ping's residence at top speed.

"Reporting to the General, the Left Worthy King is leading an army of two hundred thousand to invade our Dingning Pass!"

"What!"

Zhao Ping, who was studying a map, was greatly shocked.

He did not expect the Left Worthy King to make a comeback so soon.

"This restless fellow, it seems he really intends to swallow our Dingning Pass in one bite this time!"

Zhao Ping clenched his fists, "Pass the order down, everyone is to be on high alert and prepare to meet the enemy!"

"Yes!"

After the messenger left.

Deputy General Xu Hong said with a worried expression: "General, our army has suffered heavy losses of elite troops since the last great battle; although we have replenished them, the vast majority are new recruits."

"If we clash with the two hundred thousand troops led by the Left Worthy King, our army is by no means a match."

Zhao Ping sighed and said helplessly: "Sigh, how could I not know what you have said, but with a great enemy at the gates, we have no other way to deal with this."

"General, have you forgotten someone? He might have a way!"

"Oh? Who is it?"

"Chu Feng, General Chu!"

"That's right!"

Zhao Ping slammed the table, "How could I have forgotten this kid? I heard this kid has fought several brilliant battles recently, and even Chu Liu of the Turkic Wuji Tribe was wiped out by him."

With this reminder from Xu Hong, Zhao Ping immediately thought of Chu Feng.

How much time has passed since then!

This fellow Chu Feng has already grown to such a terrifying level.

Even an enemy at the Grandmaster Great Perfection level was slaughtered by him.

If he were to come and provide support.

Then the crisis at Dingning Pass would naturally be resolved.

"Xu Hong, immediately send men to Anwu County to request reinforcements; tell them the Left Worthy King is leading an army of two hundred thousand to invade, the situation is critical, and ask General Chu to send troops to reinforce us immediately."

"Yes, General, I will go and arrange it right away!"

Having received the order, Xu Hong immediately set out to make arrangements.

Regarding such a scene, he suddenly felt it was somewhat surreal.

One must know that Chu Feng was only an unknown little soldier back then.

Who would have thought that in just half a year.

The other party has already grown into a fierce battlefield general who makes the enemy tremble with fear.

One must know, Chu Feng is only twenty years old.

On the other side.

Anwu County.

The group responsible for guarding the place soon received the heavy gift sent by the soldiers from the front line.

"My god, this... is this really Wu Tu?"

Zhu Kang could not believe his eyes at all.

How long has it been since he left!

It hasn't even been a few days!

And yet, out of the blue, the enemy's head was sent back just like that.

"Unbelievable, I never expected the General's strength to have reached this level, he even slaughtered the enemy's former Great King!"

Lu Shuwan was also in disbelief.

The gift Chu Feng brought back was truly too astonishing.

Liu Ao and the others who learned of this news also rushed over.

When they actually saw Wu Tu's head, every one of them trembled with excitement.

Liu Ao even fell to his knees with a thud.

"Hahahahaha..."

"General Cheng, and all the brothers of the Anwu Army, General Chu has already avenged you; you can finally rest in peace!"

This pent-up foul breath in their hearts was finally released.

Satisfying!

It was truly too satisfying!

Their Anwu Army has finally washed away their previous shame today, having finished off their greatest enemy of the past.

"I will immediately write a memorial to inform the Empress and request a reward for General Chu!"

Just as Zhu Kang was preparing to set off.

The soldiers responsible for guarding the city tower rushed before them at this moment.

"Report!"

"Reporting to the lords, a messenger from Dingning Pass has arrived to report that the Left Worthy King is leading an army of two hundred thousand to invade Dingning Pass."

"General Zhao Ping has specifically brought a letter here to request reinforcements!"

"What!"

The crowd had only just gotten into high spirits, yet who would have thought they would be doused with a basin of cold water so quickly.

The Left Worthy King, who was defeated in battle last year, had actually led troops to invade again.

And it was an army of two hundred thousand.

"Damn it, these accursed Xiongnu, they truly refuse to give up!" A furious Xiang Yuan slammed his fist hard against the wall.

"Right now, the General is on a distant expedition against the Turkic and is not in the city; what should we do?" Lu Shuwan asked.

"Dingning Pass must definitely be reinforced; it is the gateway to our northeast border. If it falls, the consequences will be unimaginable!"

Xiang Yuan added.

Dingning Pass and Anwu County serve as gateways for one another.

If one side falls, the other will absolutely be implicated.

Therefore, this time that Dingning Pass is requesting aid, they must go to save it.

"How about this: we still have twenty thousand troops on hand. Lu Peng and I will lead ten thousand men to provide reinforcements, and we will send others to notify the General. Old Xiang, you take ten thousand men to garrison Anwu County."

"Why is it me guarding the home again, instead of me leading the troops to provide reinforcements? Don't forget, I was also once a soldier at Dingning Pass!"

"General Xiang, please calm your anger!"

Lu Shuwan said, "Given the current situation, your seniority and circumstances make you the most suitable to remain behind. Surely you wouldn't want the General's hard work to be threatened, would you?"

"This..."

"General Lu's words are not wrong."

Zhu Kang echoed, "General Xiang is indeed the best person for the job. If General Chu were here, he would certainly arrange it this way!"

Seeing that everyone wanted him to remain behind, Xiang Yuan did not persist further and immediately said: "Since that is the case, you two, take care!"

"Take care!"

The situation was urgent.

Qiu Ming and Lu Shuwan did not dare to linger for too long.

They immediately led the army to provide support to Dingning Pass.

Meanwhile, Xiang Yuan also immediately sent a message to Chu Feng, informing him of everything that had happened here.

On the other side.

Chu Feng was leading his army, advancing like a hot knife through butter, slaughtering Turkic tribes.

During this time, they had harvested countless riches as well as cattle and sheep.

Just as Chu Feng continued to lead his army to expand their battle results.

News of what had happened in the rear also reached his hands.
