Chapter 385

~7 min read 1,330 words

At this moment, Snow City's City Lord's Mansion!

Heavy snow was falling, and the accumulated snow covered the entire city. The City Lord's Mansion appeared very quiet!

Situ Haitang was standing by the attic window, graceful as a startled swan, holding a military book in her slender fingers, but her gaze was on the commoners of Snow City hurrying through the heavy snow.

A trace of faint worry hung between her brows; she was worried about the three thousand Snow City soldiers who had followed Xu Que out!

She knew Xu Que's strength very well; even if the siege failed, there would certainly be no danger.

But those three thousand Snow City soldiers were different. Their strength wasn't high, and their combat level wasn't stronger than the soldiers of the ten great cities. With such a small military force, how many could return alive in the end?

"Sigh!"

Thinking of this, Situ Haitang couldn't help but sigh, thinking that her agreeing to Xu Que's request was truly a bit impulsive!

Taking a city in one day? This was simply an absurd joke!

But just at this moment, a Snow City soldier hurried over from outside the city, dusty and tired, clearly having rushed directly to the city after getting off the teleportation array.

He was full of excitement, running wildly all the way, and charged straight into the City Lord's Mansion.

Situ Haitang was standing by the attic window and happened to see him. Her heart sank, and she had an uneasy premonition.

News came back so quickly?

Why did only one person return?

Where is Second Uncle? Where is Young Hero Zhuge? Where are the others? Why didn't they all return?

Could it be... they couldn't come back?

"Clatter!"

In an instant, the military book in Situ Haitang's hand fell to the ground without her noticing!

She was terrified that the soldier would bring bad news!

However, the Snow City soldier who rushed into the City Lord's Mansion happened to hear the sound, suddenly looked up, and saw Situ Haitang. He immediately shouted in surprise, "General Haitang, this subordinate has an urgent matter to report!"

Situ Haitang took a deep breath, as if she had prepared herself mentally, nodded expressionlessly, and said in a deep voice, "Speak!"

"Yes!"

The soldier didn't notice Situ Haitang's abnormality and said excitedly, "Reporting to the General, Young Hero Zhuge has already taken Bishui City and has now fought his way to Yunluo City!"

"What?"

Suddenly, Situ Haitang froze on the spot, her face full of astonishment, as if her mind hadn't had time to process it.

Young Hero Zhuge took Bishui City? And now he's fought his way to Yunluo City?

This... how is that possible?

He only left Snow City with his troops for two hours; how could it be so fast?

Is this a false report?

"General Haitang, this matter is absolutely true. We confirmed it with Wu Lao. Bishui City Lord Lv Wencai was killed by Young Hero Zhuge with one sword strike, and the remaining thirty thousand troops all surrendered, while our army had zero casualties! This is an astonishing victory, a miracle!" The soldier said again, his expression becoming more and more excited, feeling quite proud, as if he had participated in the battle himself.

After hearing this, Situ Haitang was startled again!

Killed Lv Wencai with one sword strike?

And the Snow City army had zero casualties?

This... this is something that even the legendary military gods of the past couldn't have done!

……

However, just at this moment, another soldier from Snow City hurried back.

He was also full of excitement and enthusiasm, almost slipping on the snow while running a few steps, but still rushed toward the City Lord's Mansion frantically.

As soon as he rushed into the City Lord's Mansion and saw the previous soldier and Situ Haitang, he immediately shouted, "General Haitang, this subordinate has been ordered by Wu Lao to report the latest battle situation!"

Situ Haitang's expression changed slightly, thinking that some accident had occurred. She immediately tightened her expression and nodded, "Speak!"

The soldier couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart and took several deep breaths before saying, "Reporting to the General, Yunluo City has been taken by Young Hero Zhuge. Its City Lord was killed with one sword strike, more than forty thousand troops chose to surrender, and our army had zero casualties. When we arrived, they had already set off to attack Canhai City!"

"Wha... what?"

In an instant, Situ Haitang widened her eyes again.

Even the first soldier was stunned.

In such a short time, Young Hero Zhuge and the others had actually taken a second city? And they were already heading to the third city?

My god!

This isn't a dream, is it!

How could such a thing happen in the world?

What happened to Bishui City? What happened to Yunluo City?

What about the ten great cities of the Water Yuan Kingdom?

How could they be so vulnerable?

……

……

Meanwhile, far outside Canhai City.

The flames of war had gradually extinguished. Xu Que stood on the corner of the city wall that had been reduced to ruins, majestic and imposing. The three thousand Snow City soldiers, with zero casualties, were cheering and waving their arms.

This group of people had become completely respectful of Xu Que.

In their minds, there was really only one word left: "Respect"!

In just three hours, he had led them to take three ancient cities in a row, and these three ancient cities were among the ten most powerful cities in the Water Yuan Kingdom!

The same tactics, the same methods, taking three cities in a row!

Winning against many with few, three thousand people crushing tens of thousands. Who said miracles couldn't be replicated?

Young Hero Zhuge had done it!

"General Zhuge is mighty!"

"General Zhuge is invincible!"

"General Zhuge is valiant!"

The many Snow City soldiers kept shouting.

But Xu Que didn't have time to pay attention to them right now. He was carrying a wooden stick on his shoulder, with a dog hanging from it—it was Er Gou!

"Woof, brat, if you have the guts, put this God Venerable down and let's have a fair fight!" Er Gou roared, its dog paws waving wildly, but it couldn't reach Xu Que.

Xu Que narrowed his eyes and shook his head, "Er Gou, oh Er Gou, why bother? You chased all the way from Bishui City, not to mention getting a beating from me, and now you're hanging here being sun-dried like a dog. Look, your butt is sunburnt red!"

"Fuck, if you have the guts, don't chant your techniques and let's have a fair fight. This God Venerable wants to crush you with wisdom!" Er Gou said angrily.

Xu Que was instantly amused: "Compare wisdom? Forget it. Although your head is big, once opened, it's all shit inside. Even dung beetles would laugh!"

Er Gou said angrily: "Fuck, if you have something to say, say it directly. Don't say these things that people can't understand!"

"..."

Xu Que was instantly speechless!

What can be used to save Er Gou's IQ?

It couldn't even understand such a simple and clear metaphor, yet it still had the nerve to be angry? Still had the nerve to want to compare wisdom?

"Forget it, Er Gou, I don't think you're suitable for the wisdom route. That battle in Bishui City already showed it! And to be honest, you're really cute!" Xu Que said earnestly.

Er Gou froze instantly: "Cute?"

"Yeah! Stupidly cute!"

"Fuck! Brat, let's have a fair fight!"

"Shut up, hurry up and prepare. While it's still early, let's hurry and attack the next ancient city. You continue to be responsible for setting the explosives, and I'll let you drive a tank later!"

"Fart, do you think this God Venerable will be fooled again? Impossible, I tell you, absolutely impossible!"

"Plus a helicopter!"

"Young Hero Xu, where are the explosives?"
