Chapter 550: Reversing the Heavens and Earth

"Bang!"

Fresh blood splattered.

Everyone's expression changed drastically. Because the violent collision in that split second made it impossible for anyone to see exactly what had happened.

Liu Zheng felt a jolt in his heart.

Not to mention Feng Sanniang, Grand Eunuch Zhou, and the others.

What they could clearly see at this moment was only Cheng Anguo's back, which had already been pierced by Xie Chan's long sword. This strike went straight through his heart, and by the time he turned his head with a look of horror, the vitality in his eyes had already begun to dissipate.

As for how Xie Chan and Shi Ke were doing, because Pei Qianyun had suddenly rushed over and blocked them, they could not see at all.

They did not see it.

At this moment, the usually steady and gloomy Shi Ke had an expression of disbelief blooming in his eyes for that split second.

He looked at Pei Qianyun in horror.

At this time, Pei Qianyun's arm had become incredibly twisted; yes, it was a twist that almost no normal person could achieve! A twist that violated all rules of Physics, yet he had done exactly that!

At the very last moment, he had actually used his hammer to smash down onto Shi Ke's wrist!

That's right!

Although he could not stop his Dagger, at the critical moment, he had a flash of inspiration and smashed the hammer fiercely onto Shi Ke's wrist.

Bang!

Shi Ke would never believe, even in death, that such a monstrous expert was hidden by the side of the Governor.

This reaction speed had already exceeded human imagination!

To save Xie Chan, his entire arm might even be ruined because of this!

"Ahhhhh!"

Enduring the excruciating pain, Pei Qianyun smashed down with his hammer.

This strike was powerful and heavy; Shi Ke just watched helplessly as one of his own hands, along with the Dagger, was smashed off his arm—yes, it was just smashed off like that...

Blood was blurred.

It was a shocking sight.

Because it was too fast, Shi Ke did not even feel a shred of pain.

This guy, known as the world's number one assassin, just stared blankly. He watched that precious Dagger, which had followed him, gained fame in the Jianghu, and later faded from the Jianghu—which he had named "Cold Light Slash"—fall gracefully to the ground along with the hand that had been smashed off.

"Ah!"

"Kill!"

Shi Ke's mind was still blank at this moment. Because he could not believe that he had failed.

For an assassin, without a hand and without a Dagger, what else did he have?

However, Xie Chan and Pei Qianyun would not give him another chance to be dazed.

"Kill!"

Xie Chan's sword was pulled out from Cheng Anguo's body, and she turned around to stab at Shi Ke.

Pei Qianyun also knew that this Shi Ke had superb strength, so he could not help but ignore the excruciating pain in his body and smashed down with his left-hand golden hammer again.

"Boom!"

"Rumble!"

This time, Shi Ke could no longer escape.

In a duel between experts, a moment of distraction can decide everything.

With a sword and a hammer locked onto Shi Ke, he could no longer escape. By the time he reacted, everything before his eyes had gone black.

"Qianyun!"

On Liu Zheng's side, he finally saw the battle situation and immediately shouted out, feeling both joy and worry.

"Protect Her Highness the Princess!"

"Kill!"

Once Shi Ke was dead, the guard was immediately lifted, and several people rushed over at the same time.

At the same time.

Seeing that Cheng Anguo had also died and fallen from his horse, Jiang Xuan immediately shouted: "The traitor Cheng Anguo is dead! The traitor Cheng Anguo is dead! Followers, lay down your weapons and you will not be held accountable!"

"Cheng Anguo is dead!"

"Lay down your weapons and you will not be held accountable!"

"Cheng Anguo is dead!"

This voice spread in all directions. The guards and followers who had come with Cheng Anguo immediately changed color, their hearts filled with panic. Once they heard that they would not be held accountable as long as they laid down their weapons, how could they hesitate? The situation was stronger than the people, and immediately a few people raised their arms and shouted: "Brothers, protect Her Highness!"

"Protect Her Highness the Princess!"

They changed sides on the spot!

These people's swords and blades soon hacked at the death squads of Xie Ling.

"What?"

Seeing Cheng Anguo and Shi Ke die one after another, Xie Ling was completely stunned.

All the blood drained from his face.

For him at this moment, this blow was too great!

It was simply losing his wife and losing his army!

"Quick, quick, quick, speed up the attack, speed up the attack for me!"

Xie Ling roared immediately.

Things had reached this stage, and there was no way back. The battle had to be ended as quickly as possible!

Long nights bring many dreams!

"Yes!"

The remaining thirty or forty thousand death soldiers began a desperate charge once again.

"General Luo?"

Ten miles away.

Nearly thirty thousand garrison troops were poised and ready.

Upon hearing the news that Cheng Anguo was dead, the hearts of this group were still slightly shaken. General Cheng, just died like that? But since he chose this path, there was no Method. Now, what these people cared about was only their own futures, and not being affected by Cheng Anguo!

General Luo raised his hand and shouted: "Save the Longyang Princess!"

"Save the Longyang Princess!"

"Charge!"

The east wind blows, the war drums beat!

As the thirty thousand fresh regular troops charged over, War Horses galloping and long blades pointed forward, the formation of the tens of thousands of death soldiers, who had originally held the advantage, was immediately scattered.

"What is happening, what is happening now!"

Xie Ling almost spat out a mouthful of blood again, trembling and swaying, nearly blacking out.

"His Highness, His Highness..."

"The garrison troops have come out to help Prefect Liu!"

"This..."

The group of people fell into despair.

Xie Ling was even more desperate.

The arrival of the thirty thousand regular troops allowed the Liangzhou Army to finally catch their breath. Jiang Xuan even led his brothers to change from a defensive formation and began a frontal assault against these death soldiers!

Over thirty thousand regular troops against nearly forty thousand death soldiers!

The scene was massive and bloody.

A slash from you, a thrust from me.

Your arms and his legs began to fly across this official road.

However.

Regular troops are, after all, regular troops.

Death soldiers are, after all, death soldiers.

Furthermore, these death soldiers of Xie Ling had been fighting continuously for about three hours and were long since exhausted. At this moment, how could they be a match for the vigorous garrison troops of Yang'an Pass?

It was a clean sweep!

The garrison troops of Yang'an Pass, coordinating with the Liangzhou Army, were practically unstoppable! Admittedly, these death soldiers, fully armed to the teeth by Xie Ling with gold and silver, had strong combat power. But being caught in a pincer attack, they fell into a state of extreme disadvantage.

Just like that.

These disorganized death soldiers were perishing bit by bit, at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Kill!"

"Kill them for me!"

The Liangzhou Army, having defended for so long, could finally hold their heads high. Jiang Xuan led his brothers in this counter-slaughter, invincible; wherever they went, the blades and swords brought only the heads of these death soldiers!

The situation was reversed in an instant.

"Impossible, how can this be!"

"How can this be!"

Xie Ling could finally hold back no longer, and with a thud, he knelt on the ground. At this moment, his face was full of hatred, full of unwillingness, full of distortion, and full of ferocity.

How could he lose!

How could he lose so thoroughly!

He had lost.

He no longer had any chance of a comeback.

"Pfft..."
