Chapter 128

Now is the time for our happy counterattack!

Gu Han gave a feral grin and exchanged a glance with Gu Chen, who had already been ready to strike beside him.

Gu Han and Gu Chen were together with Zhou Kuan's deputy.

Leading the Ben Lang Guo troops inside the city, they began to counterattack on the battlefield!

Gu Han and Gu Chen brothers, spear and sword raised together, led the troops in a sweeping slaughter.

Gu Chen's flying sword in his hand moved like a shuttle, continually harvesting the lives of the weak among the Saber-Tooth Army.

Gu Chen knew the bottleneck of his own strength.

The flying sword basically paid no attention to those Great Martial Masters and Martial Masters.

On the battlefield, he specifically picked on Martial Practitioners like soft persimmons to crush.

Gu Han's Silver Dragon Spear in his hand howled like the wind.

Under the rampage of the spear's aura, even a Great Martial Master in his hands now has no match.

Gu Han continually absorbed the attributes of his defeated subordinates.

Allowing his whole body to feel relaxed, he grasped a second artistic conception.

Sword Intent!

It's a pity that Gu Han is not a sword cultivator; he lacks the ability to take heads with a flying sword like Gu Chen.

The sword's attack range on the battlefield is limited, so naturally its speed of killing enemies is not as great as that of a long spear.

The Saber-Tooth Army, which held a numerical advantage, instead became the side being surrounded like dumplings in this battle.

The Saber-Tooth Army suffered successive defeats, with heavy losses!

If it weren't for the Ice Frost Giant Python summoned by the Ice Profound Sect cultivator, restraining the two Martial Ancestors Di Ying and Ma Yan,

the losses of the Saber-Tooth Army would probably be even more severe!

In the air, Xiao Yuanshan, who was mutually restraining with Guan Zhen, looked at the ground situation, his face as still as water.

"Guan Zhen, you sure have good tactics!"

Earlier, he had not been without doubts; he had also considered scouting the situation from a high vantage point.

But every time he wanted to scout, Guan Zhen would instantly strike, not giving him that chance.

Guan Zhen gave a hehe laugh,

"If there's blame to be placed, it's only because you were too overconfident!"

"You thought that by inviting the Ice Profound Sect cultivator, victory would be in your grasp!"

Xiao Yuanshan also didn't expect the situation to develop in an uncontrollable direction.

"Guan Zhen, you're getting a little too happy too soon."

"The Ice Frost Giant Python isn't dead yet; with your Martial Ancestors dividing their attention to resist it, can you really hold Mu Shan Cheng?"

In terms of top-tier strength and overall strength, the Saber-Tooth Army still holds the advantage.

Even if the Ben Lang Guo army breaks out from the flanks, inflicting heavy losses on the Saber-Tooth Army,

at most it would only pull the situation to where the two sides are roughly equal.

Continuing the stalemate, it remains unknown who will win!

The Ice Profound Sect's Ice Frost Giant Python is no easy opponent!

Guan Zhen gave a cold snort, his cold, gorgeous saw slashing ferociously at Xiao Yuanshan,

"If that's the case, then let's see which side can endure to the end!"

Guan Zhen had no doubt whatsoever about the troops' fighting spirit.

As Guan Zhen expected, the tug-of-war at the city gate, under the leadership of Gu Han and others, clearly showed signs of gradually shifting outward.

Both the Saber-Tooth Army and the Ben Lang Guo army dropped thousands of corpses in the fierce battle lasting the time of a single incense stick.

Yet neither side had any intention of yielding!

For the Ben Lang Guo army, behind them lay countless homes with lights.

That is everything they must protect even at the cost of their lives!

Even if the Saber-Tooth Army is wicked to the extreme, they cannot retreat a single step!

But for the Saber-Tooth Army, they have already paid too much for this battle.

The excessive sunk cost leads them to be unable to give up!

Only by capturing Mu Shan Cheng can they realize their sunk cost!

Both sides are expressing their firm will through action.

However, about an hour of fierce fighting passed.

In the air, Xiao Yuanshan, who was mutually restraining with Guan Zhen, suddenly felt several strong and overbearing auras approaching from afar.

He immediately furrowed his brow and looked toward the north.

He discovered that they were several powerful Martial Ancestors riding flying wolves!

"Wang Kaishan!"

When he saw the appearance of the leader clearly, his expression suddenly changed dramatically!

Wang Kaishan is the commander of another border fort of Ben Lang Guo to the north of Mu Shan Cheng.

His strength is not inferior to Guan Zhen's!

And the few following behind Wang Kaishan are his deputy and the Bijang.

A full five fresh Martial Ancestors have joined the battlefield, which will definitely create a one-sided situation!

"Good, good, good!"

Xiao Yuanshan actually said the word 'good' three times, his gaze dark as he looked at Guan Zhen,

This battle, we Dan Ren Cheng have suffered a loss!

As his words fell, amid Guan Zhen's contemptuous smile, Xiao Yuanshan roared at the troops below,

"All Saber-Toothed Army, retreat immediately, do not linger in battle!"

Under the impetus of his inner strength, Xiao Yuanshan's voice reached the ears of tens of thousands of soldiers on the battlefield.

Countless Saber-Toothed Army were greatly shocked, not knowing why the general would issue a retreat order at this time.

However, no one in the Saber-Toothed Army dared to defy Xiao Yuanshan's orders.

They abandoned the thought of continuing to fight and began to withdraw in an orderly manner.

Zhang Meng, who was fighting Guan Shan and had even suppressed him, upon hearing the order, his face showed an expression of disbelief.

He had firmly suppressed Guan Shan; at most another half cup of tea's time, and he could behead Guan Shan!

To behead a Martial Ancestor in battle would be a great merit, even for him.

No one is willing to give up this easily obtained merit, not even Zhang Meng.

Zhang Meng's eyes fierce, he continued to frenziedly attack Guan Shan.

Although Guan Shan's face was deathly pale and his breath weak, he still clung to life.

Blood hung from the corner of his mouth, he sneered and stared at Zhang Meng,

"Do you want to defy Xiao Yuanshan's order?"

Upon these words, Zhang Meng's face changed even more.

"Shut your mouth!"

His offensive momentum became even more fierce and astonishing.

However, in a short time, it was still difficult to kill Guan Shan.

"Zhang Meng, don't waste time!"

The Bijang who had been fighting Di Ying and others ahead now retreated back into the formation.

He immediately grabbed Zhang Meng, who still wanted to behead Guan Shan, and shouted lowly,

"If you don't retreat now, you might also have to stay here!"

Only then did Zhang Meng look ahead; under the leadership of Di Ying and other generals, the Running Wolf Army had already begun to advance and attack.

The Running Wolf Army's marching speed is extremely fast; they will probably arrive here shortly.

By then, the one encircled will be Zhang Meng instead.

Zhang Meng's heart greatly startled, unwillingly he glared at Guan Shan,

"One day, you will die by my hand!"

Guan Shan's eyes fierce, he smiled,

"If not for the previous encirclement, do you think you could be my opponent?"

This sentence was like a thorn piercing Zhang Meng's heart, making him fly into a rage.

What Guan Shan said was correct; Zhang Meng's strength is indeed slightly weaker than Guan Shan's.

Therefore Zhang Meng, even when faced with Xiao Yuanshan's retreat order, still wanted to kill Guan Shan.

What he did was just to prove himself!

But heaven does not follow human wishes; Di Ying and Ma Yan have already led their troops to arrive.

Even if Zhang Meng is still unwilling, he can only command his saber-toothed pig beneath him to swiftly retreat.

Under the pursuit of the Running Wolf Army, the Saber-Toothed Army, while retreating, again left thousands of corpses on the road.

However, to prevent the Saber-Toothed Army from turning back and attacking,

Zhou Kuan ordered the Running Wolf Army to cease pursuit after five li.

According to Gu Han's suggestion, this is called:

"Do not pursue a desperate foe!"
