Chapter 368: He has arrived!
Xu Que's unbridled and incredibly loud voice instantly resounded across the entire peak of the snow mountain!
At the same time, the sound traveled through the bronze mirror and reached the Holy Land.
Robbery?
Upon hearing this, Liu Jingning was stunned for a moment, and then she couldn't help but burst into laughter!
She saw very clearly that the person shouting this was clearly a young man with a delicate and handsome appearance, looking refined and courteous; she hadn't expected him to be so flamboyant when he spoke.
The playful smile on Liu Jingning's face couldn't help but grow deeper.
However, the Empress behind her suddenly opened her eyes at this moment, her small mouth slightly agape, looking at the bronze mirror in disbelief.
In the image, Xu Que led a vast army, descending from the sky in a night sky filled with countless floating Kong Ming lanterns.
He appeared gentle and elegant, yet he was actually lawless and uninhibited. That majestic aura was projected directly into the Empress's eyes through the bronze mirror at this moment.
How... did he come here?
The Empress was extremely surprised in her heart.
Scenes couldn't help but flash through her mind.
From the embarrassment and amusement of her first meeting with Xu Que at the Domain Tower, to witnessing Xu Que display his powerful strength in the Fire Origin Kingdom, everything flashed through her mind like a slide show.
Unknowingly, a faint smile appeared on the Empress's lips; this smile was enough to make all the flowers in the world feel ashamed.
"Jiang Hongyan, I never thought there would be such an extraordinary young man in Snow City. Seeing him traveling with Situ Haitang, his identity probably isn't simple, right? Why haven't I seen him before?"
At this moment, Liu Jingning, who had her back to the Empress, suddenly spoke up, her gaze continuing to fixate on Xu Que in the bronze mirror, her face carrying a playful expression.
"However, with just this few people, they are ultimately just coming to die in vain, all dying because of you! Jiang Hongyan, you are truly destined to be ominous and unfortunate, a femme fatale. When your father gave you this name, it already foreshadowed everything!" Liu Jingning laughed teasingly.
The Empress's eyes narrowed slightly, the smile on her face gradually fading, and she said softly, "In front of that young man, I'm afraid the Ice Armor Army is the one that is unfortunate! Liu Jingning, if you don't want the entire Ice Armor Army to be wiped out, it's still not too late to let them retreat now!"
"What did you say? Let my tens of thousands of Ice Armor soldiers retreat? Haha, just because of this young man?" Liu Jingning suddenly turned around, as if she had heard some incredible joke, and laughed in spite of herself.
The Empress shook her head slightly, smiling without a word, and said no more.
Liu Jingning teased, "Jiang Hongyan, I never thought that after leaving the Jiang family for so many years, your wisdom wouldn't be as good as before! Do you think I would believe such absurd words from you? You had better see for yourself, see how that young man is hacked into ten thousand pieces by my Ice Armor Army!"
The two stopped talking, their gazes both sweeping toward the bronze mirror, watching Xu Que.
Xu Que in the bronze mirror was very eye-catching.
After all, in terms of looks, he was considered high, and coupled with that lawless rogue aura of his, it was truly incompatible with his gentle and elegant appearance; it would be difficult not to be eye-catching.
What was even more mind-boggling was that these thousands of troops, while seemingly led by Situ Haitang, were actually listening to Xu Que's commands, landing in an orderly fashion at every position on the city wall.
When they were still a few meters above the ground, they released the gliders on their backs, jumped down, and immediately drew their swords and spears, engaging in a slaughter with the Ice Armor Army.
The Ice Armor Army was caught off guard by this night raid, and there were only a few hundred people patrolling the city wall; they had never expected anyone to cross the canyon to launch a surprise attack.
Suddenly, hundreds of Ice Armor soldiers were besieged by human-sea tactics and instantly fell into a pool of blood.
Among them, Xu Que was still the one who killed the most. Holding an eight-star treasure sword, even without True Essence, he still cut through iron as if it were mud. At the same time, he unleashed the Dugu Nine Swords, appearing like a martial arts supreme, slaughtering the Ice Armor Army until they were in complete disarray!
When the last Ice Armor soldier on the city wall fell, Xu Que stepped on the corpse and shouted loudly, "Who else? I'll just ask one thing, who else?"
"Who else?"
Thousands of Snow City soldiers, with high morale and surging blood, followed with a roar, the sound resounding through the clouds, the momentum vast and mighty.
After all, they had successfully occupied the city wall without any effort, which was definitely a huge encouragement to the entire Snow City army!
Situ Haitang also stood heroically on the city wall, holding a Square Sky Halberd, her eyes full of surprise and excitement.
The miracles Xu Que created gave her huge confidence in this battle.
"Presumptuous!"
At this moment, a heaven-shaking roar came from below the city wall.
A burly man with a tiger's back and a bear's waist stepped out of the military camp, wearing ice armor, his cultivation reaching the fourth level of the Infant Transformation Stage. Although his True Essence was also sealed, he still looked extremely formidable!
"You unruly army, how dare you come here to die! Where is the Ice Armor Army? Kill them for me! Leave none alive!"
The burly man waved his large hand and roared in a deep voice.
Immediately, countless Ice Armor soldiers rushed out, quickly lined up in formation, and surrounded the city wall!
However, because it was late at night, most of the Ice Armor soldiers were resting. Xu Que's surprise attack caught most of them off guard, and they were still busy putting on their ice armor and grabbing weapons!
Xu Que didn't give them a chance to adjust. He immediately waved his hand and shouted, "Snow City Army, listen to my order! Switch to bows and arrows, shoot them to death for me!"
"Yes!"
Thousands of Snow City soldiers immediately switched to bows and arrows, leaned over the city wall, pulled their bows to the full, and shot arrows in unison!
Swish! Swish! Swish!
In an instant, a dense rain of arrows poured down, shooting toward the Ice Armor Army below.
The scene was astonishing. Countless Ice Armor soldiers were hit by arrows and fell to the ground before they could even get close to the city wall. Screams followed one after another, and the situation was completely one-sided.
After all, they were all mortal flesh and blood. Without True Essence, they were almost just a bit stronger than ordinary mortals and ultimately couldn't block the power of bows and arrows.
And the most critical thing was that the city wall was occupied. Xu Que had the perfect terrain advantage here. No matter how many Ice Armor soldiers there were, they could only bite the bullet and charge forward.
"Shoot, keep shooting!"
"That's right, just like that!"
"Shoot them in the face, give them a taste of it! Shoot those bastards to death!"
Xu Que stood on the city wall, shouting at the top of his lungs.
At the same time, he summoned the system mall interface and exchanged for barrels of fire oil!
Fire oil was naturally a must-have for combat, a good thing that was both cheap and high-quality.
"Come, some people over there, help pour the oil down!"
Xu Que greeted hundreds of soldiers, distributed a barrel of fire oil to each, and poured it directly down the city wall.
That pungent smell instantly permeated the entire peak of the snow mountain.
The Ice Armor Army charged halfway, suddenly frowning and covering their noses.
"What is this smell?"
"Why is it so unpleasant?"
"Could it be urine?"
"Damn, these people are crazy, so despicable, they actually splash urine in battle?"
"Too shameless, hurry, where are our archers? Hurry up and cover us!"
"Eh? Why did they all bring out torches? What are they doing?"
At this moment, many Ice Armor soldiers were surprised.
Xu Que on the city wall distributed torches to hundreds of soldiers, standing on the edge of the city wall with a treacherous smile, looking down at them.
Suddenly, the Ice Armor Army shivered.
Damn, these people are smiling so sinisterly, what do they want to do?
"Don't stop, charge for me, they can't play any more tricks! Archers, line up and cover them!" At this moment, the Ice Armor Army's Great General roared, ordering the whole army, full of momentum.
In his view, it didn't matter if the city wall was occupied. After all, their Ice Armor Army still had tens of thousands of people, and numbers were a huge advantage!
In this kind of siege charge, it was normal for a few thousand people to die, and victory would ultimately belong to their Ice Armor Army!
"Kill!"
Military orders were like mountains. The Ice Armor Army under the city wall regained their morale, let out a roar, and charged forward regardless of their lives!
The Ice Armor Army archers in the rear also raised their bows and arrows, aiming at the city wall.
At this moment, the corners of Xu Que's mouth suddenly lifted, and he laughed loudly, "Look, those idiots really ran over. Second Battalion Commander, bring me my Italian cannon... pfft, no, throw all the torches down!" ===== CHAPTER 369 =====
