You get Lu Bu as your starting character.

Chapter 441 I have been waiting for you for a long time

The Northern Capital.

Yuwen Chengdu stood on the city wall, gazing into the distance.

After receiving the imperial decree, Yuwen Chengdu immediately led his army to Beidu City.

He divided his 100,000-strong army into two parts: one to guard Yanmen Pass and set up the defense line, and the other to come to the northern capital with him.

Faced with the imminent arrival of the massive beast dynasty, no one can guarantee that they can withstand its onslaught.

Therefore, Yuwen Chengdu constructed two lines of defense, and instead of bringing all 100,000 troops to Beidu City, he left a portion at Yanmen Pass.

If the capital city of Beidu cannot withstand the onslaught of the Beast Dynasty, he can retreat to Yanmen Pass to defend it, so that it will not be overwhelmed by the Beast Dynasty without any chance to recover.

"Commander, everything in the city has been arranged. When the Beast Dynasty arrives, they will assist us in defending the city and resisting the Beast Dynasty."

A general walked over and bowed to Yuwen Chengdu.

In the present Great Zhou, everyone values ​​martial arts, and the Northern Capital is the link between the Great Zhou and the Hundred Cities Prefecture. After the Hundred Cities Prefecture was incorporated into the Great Zhou, many people from the Hundred Cities Prefecture and those who traveled in the Great Wilderness flocked to the Northern Capital.

This led to a surge in the population of Beidu City, and the number of people practicing martial arts also increased.

Although these people are generally not very strong, they are still a force that cannot be ignored.

Therefore, after arranging the defense of the army, Yuwen Chengdu ordered the integration of these forces within the city to replenish his strength.

"Ok!"

Yuwen Chengdu nodded.

Before Yuwen Chengdu could even speak, the earth began to tremble, and even the city walls shook.

Yuwen Chengdu's expression changed, and he looked up.

Suddenly, one after another, wild beasts appeared on the distant horizon, densely packed, like dark clouds pressing down, blotting out the sky as they surged forward.

"Archers, prepare! The beast horde is attacking!"

Yuwen Chengdu let out a loud shout and soared into the sky.

As soon as the Phoenix Winged Golden Halberd appeared, bursts of earth-shattering power were unleashed from Yuwen Chengdu's hands.

"Boom!"

The surging wild beasts exploded out of thin air, and countless wild beasts were instantly obliterated between heaven and earth.

Yuwen Chengdu's figure also appeared in front of the Beast Dynasty at the same time.

Gazing at the seemingly endless Beast Dynasty, Yuwen Chengdu continued to wield his Phoenix Winged Golden Halberd without pause, charging towards the oncoming Beast Dynasty.

The aura of a semi-saint erupted completely from Yuwen Chengdu.

With each swing, countless wild beasts were obliterated by Yuwen Chengdu's Phoenix Winged Golden Halberd.

At the same time, many generals and elite troops on the city wall soared into the sky, following Yuwen Chengdu as they rushed out of the city wall to meet the beast dynasty.

Faced with such a surging beast dynasty, relying solely on the city walls for passive defense is not advisable.

Therefore, many generals and elite troops followed Yuwen Chengdu out of the city walls and charged towards the Beast Dynasty.

They wanted to use their superior strength to hold off the Beast Dynasty's advance from afar outside the city and then annihilate it with all their might.

With the combined efforts of Yuwen Chengdu and numerous generals and elite troops, the overwhelming force of the Beast Dynasty was indeed stopped.

In particular, when Yuwen Chengdu, a half-saint, went all out, countless wild beasts were completely wiped out each time, without even leaving a trace of blood.

Unfortunately, the beast dynasty was too vast. Even with Yuwen Chengdu, a half-saint, exerting all his strength to suppress it, the wild beasts continued to attack one after another, seemingly endless, and could not be completely eradicated.

"Roar!"

Just as Yuwen Chengdu was doing his best to resist the strangling beast dynasty, a deafening roar resounded through the sky.

Suddenly, a colossal creature charged towards them from behind at an incredible speed.

Yuwen Chengdu reacted swiftly, immediately raising his Phoenix Winged Golden Halberd in front of him.

"Bang……."

Before Yuwen Chengdu could react, he was already flying backward.

After tumbling several times, Yuwen Chengdu finally managed to stand up, a trickle of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.

"A ninth-tier great demon?"

Looking at the enormous creature before him, Yuwen Chengdu's expression hardened slightly.

The enormous creature before them was a ninth-tier dragon.

Moreover, it wasn't just any ordinary ninth-tier dragon; it was a peak ninth-tier dragon.

Furthermore, in addition to this ninth-tier dragon, a ninth-tier great demon also appeared.

It should be noted that a ninth-tier great demon is equivalent to a human half-saint. In addition, with the innate strength of demon beasts, humans of the same realm are generally no match for them.

"Valiant Guard!"

Facing two ninth-tier demon kings, Yuwen Chengdu dared not be careless in the slightest.

Normally, Yuwen Chengdu wouldn't mind fighting two ninth-tier demons.

But now, facing such a massive beast dynasty, the consequences of a single misstep are unimaginable.

Therefore, Yuwen Cheng had to go all out to kill the two ninth-tier demons with a single blow.

"exist."

Upon hearing Yuwen Chengdu's shout, the many generals and elite soldiers of the Xiaoguo Guard who were fighting against the Beast Dynasty abandoned the Beast Dynasty and soared into the sky, appearing behind Yuwen Chengdu.

They stood behind Yuwen Chengdu in a military formation, as if they had become one with him.

Yuwen Chengdu's aura surged, and a fierce military spirit appeared above his head.

"kill."

When Yuwen Chengdu's aura reached its peak, he made his move.

The moment the Phoenix Winged Gilded Halberd appeared, the world changed color.

Countless wild beasts exploded out of thin air under Yuwen Chengdu's imposing aura.

"Roar……"

The two ninth-tier demons also charged towards Yuwen Chengdu at the same time.

"boom!"

The violent collision tore through space, and the sound traveled for miles.

Drops of blood rained down from the void.

The two ninth-tier demons instantly fell from the sky to the ground, creating two large craters.

"die."

Yuwen Chengdu swung his Phoenix Winged Golden Halberd down again, aiming to take the lives of the two ninth-tier demons.

at this time.

A figure emerged from the void, reaching out to strike Yuwen Chengdu and his companions.

"puff……"

Before the palm could even strike, the soaring, menacing military spirit above Yuwen Chengdu's head shattered under the pressure of the blow.

Yuwen Chengdu also spat out a mouthful of blood.

Yuwen Chengdu looked up, his pupils contracting sharply.

Demon Saint?

Yuwen Chengdu's expression changed immediately.

Yuwen Cheng never expected that there was a demon saint behind this beast dynasty.

Now it's dangerous.

If he were at his peak, he could have fought this demon saint to a standstill.

However, he is not at his peak strength now. The injuries he sustained in the previous battle with the dynasty have not yet healed, and he is no match for such a demon saint.

"You're the one waiting."

Just when Yuwen Chengdu thought it was all over, a detached voice rang in his ears.

Bai Qi appeared beside Yuwen Chengdu.

With a casual wave of his hand, Bai Qi instantly dissipated the palm strike from the demon saint.

Bai Qi looked at the demon race's sage, and said indifferently, as if looking at a dead man, "I have been waiting for you for a long time." "A Great Sage of the Human Race?"

Upon seeing Bai Qi appear, the demon saint's expression changed drastically.

From the aura Bai Qi exuded just now, the demon saint was able to judge Bai Qi's strength.

The demon saint never imagined that a dynasty like the Great Zhou would actually have such a powerful figure as the Great Saint.

Moreover, the Great Zhou even dispatched a powerful figure like the Great Sage to resist the Beast Dynasty.

"escape."

Without saying a word, the demon saint turned around, tore open space, and fled.

The demon saint understood that although he and Bai Qi were both saints, he was only a minor saint who had comprehended one complete law, while Bai Qi was a major saint who had comprehended more than three complete laws.

They are not even on the same level.

To be precise, they are worlds apart.

This saint who had comprehended a law was essentially no different from how he viewed Yuwen Chengdu and his ilk as ants in front of the great saint Bai Qi—utterly vulnerable.

Therefore, the demon saint did not hesitate at all, and upon seeing Bai Qi, he turned around and fled.

Furthermore, his purpose in launching the Beast Dynasty this time was not to conquer and destroy the Great Zhou, but to test the Great Zhou.

Now that the results are in, the Great Zhou has the Great Sage. If he doesn't escape quickly, is he going to stay and wait to die?
"Want to escape?"

"Hmph, do you think you can escape from me?"

Bai Qi snorted coldly, and the aura of the Great Sage spread out, sealing off the entire void.

The moment the God of Slaughter Domain appeared, the entire void turned blood red.

"Do not……"

The demon saint hadn't escaped far before he was completely trapped in that blood-red domain, leaving behind only a miserable scream of unwillingness.

Yuwen Chengdu, who was standing nearby, was completely shocked as he watched.

Yuwen Cheng knew that Bai Qi was very strong, but he did not expect that Bai Qi's strength was so terrifying.

With a mere gesture, he obliterated a saint who had transcended reincarnation and comprehended the complete laws.

Even a great sage like him couldn't do this so easily!

After annihilating the demon race's sage, Bai Qi turned to look at Yuwen Chengdu and said, "The demon race's sage is dead. The remaining beast dynasty is now in your hands. I need to rush to Xidu immediately."

The crisis in the northern capital has been resolved, but the crisis in the western capital remains.

Therefore, Bai Qi left behind a single sentence, without exchanging any pleasantries with Yuwen Chengdu, and his figure vanished from the spot.

Only after watching Bai Qi's disappearing figure did Yuwen Chengdu realize what had happened.

He couldn't help but feel a little relieved; thankfully, His Majesty had secretly sent Bai Qi.

Otherwise, he really wouldn't have been able to withstand the beasts today...

……

Qianzhou.

Han Xin wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and looked at the Demon Saint opposite him with a solemn expression.

Since the unrest began in various parts of Qianzhou, Han Xin has sent troops to suppress it everywhere. Han Xin himself even personally killed two demon half-saints and many powerful demons.

Han Xin originally thought that these two demonic half-saints were the strongest behind this turmoil, and that as long as these two demonic half-saints were dealt with, the rest of the turmoil would be nothing to fear.

However, Han Xin never expected that after killing the two demon race half-saints, another demon race saint would make a move. It was truly a case of killing the young and bringing in the old.

"A Demon Saint?"

Han Xin stared intently at the demon saint, his expression tense.

If it were a demigod, Han Xin would not fear any number of them.

However, Han Xin had no confidence whatsoever when facing a demon saint.

Unless you fight with all your might, you might have a 20-30% chance of winning.

"As expected of the Great Zhou's commander-in-chief, you were able to block my power of law with the strength of a mere half-saint. You are quite good."

The Demon Saint looked at Han Xin and said calmly.

"Unfortunately, you've met me."

"The thing I like to do most is to torture and kill human geniuses, and use them to pave my way to the heavens."

“Especially human geniuses like you who are able to fight beyond their level, ninety-nine people have already died at my hands, and you will be the hundredth.”

As the demon saint spoke, he reached out, and the power of the laws spread in all directions.

The entire Qianzhou prefecture was enveloped by a domain formed by the power of laws.

Upon seeing this, Han Xin's expression changed drastically.

This demon saint not only wanted to kill him, but also wanted to completely annihilate the entire Yanzhou prefecture.

These demons are truly inhuman, ruthless and cruel.

Han Xin dared not delay, and the chessboard in his hand began to spin.

Just as Han Xin was preparing to fight this demon saint to the death, a loud shout that resounded through the sky came from afar.

"How dare you, you foreign traitors, be so presumptuous!"

A long spear shot out from afar.

The law domain that originally covered the entire Yanzhou prefecture was instantly torn apart and slowly spread outwards.

In the blink of an eye, the demon saint's domain was shattered and completely destroyed by the power of the spear that shot out.

A figure appeared in the sight of Han Xin and the Demon Saint.

This is?

Han Xin was overjoyed when he saw the person who had arrived.

Han Xin had already received news that His Majesty had dispatched a large army to suppress the unrest in the nine provinces.

Han Xin did not expect that reinforcements would arrive at this critical moment.

It really came at the right time.

The demon saint's expression changed drastically upon seeing the newcomer.

Peak of the Lesser Saint?

The Demon Saint looked at Zhang Fei, his pupils contracted, and the calm and composed expression on his face was gone.

That's right.

The person who arrived was none other than Zhang Fei, who had been sent by Emperor Zhou Chen of the Great Zhou Dynasty to suppress the unrest.

Along his journey, Zhang Fei pierced through and suppressed the powerful figures in the various states who were in turmoil, as well as the half-saints and saints of the demon race.

Qianzhou was Zhang Fei's last stop.

"You barbarian scoundrel, how dare you act so presumptuously in my Great Zhou! You are truly courting death."

"Take a spear from your Grandpa Zhang."

Without a word, Zhang Fei lunged forward, his eighteen-foot spear thrusting directly at the demon saint.

"not good."

"escape."

Sensing a deadly crisis, the demon saint turned and tore through the void to escape.

Although everyone is a Lesser Saint, there are differences between Lesser Saints.

He was only a Lesser Saint who had comprehended one law, while the other party was a Lesser Saint at the peak who had comprehended three laws.

He was no match for his opponent at all.

Therefore, the Demon Saint had no choice but to flee first.

"Humph, you want to escape."

"Can you escape?"

Zhang Fei also tore through the void and gave chase.

The two figures disappeared into the sky above Qianzhou Prefecture like shooting stars.
