"Commander Zhao will be in charge of the southwest border defense for the time being."

"The rest of you, each of you should perform your duties and not slack off."

"If there is any urgent military information, send someone to the capital immediately so that the court can respond."

"Yes!" All the generals responded in unison, each with a serious expression.

Chu Ze explained all the matters in detail before setting off on his return journey.

The journey was exhausting and sleepless.

My heart was filled with worry about the situation in Beijing.

However, what he didn't expect was that a bigger conspiracy was waiting for him ahead.

Just as Chu Ze was about to arrive in the capital, a figure in black suddenly appeared from the bushes on the side of the road.

The man was wearing a bamboo hat and his movements were strange. It was obvious at first glance that he was not a good person.

"Who is coming?" Chu Ze reined in his horse and shouted, staring at the person vigilantly.

The man in black laughed strangely with a sinister tone.

“General Chu, you are so majestic.

Unfortunately, your good days are over."

As he spoke, the man in black took off his hat, revealing his ferocious face.

It turned out to be Zhu Biao's confidant - Zhang Tiangang!
Seeing this, Chu Ze secretly thought that this was not good.

"Zhang Tiangang, you traitor, how dare you block my way here?
Does your master know that you are sneaking around here?"

Zhang Tiangang sneered, "Humph, you don't need to worry about my master.

I am here today on the orders of my master to take your dog's life!"

Before he finished speaking, Zhang Tiangang drew out his sword and rushed towards Chu Ze.

At the same time, countless figures in black emerged from the woods beside the road and surrounded Chu Ze.

Obviously, this was a premeditated ambush!
The situation was extremely critical, but Chu Ze was furious.

"Well, Zhu Biao, that bastard, actually set up an ambush and tried to plot against me!"

"It's so reckless!"

He roared angrily, drew his sword, and struck back at him.

In an instant, a cold light flashed and the sound of killing shook the sky.

Although Chu Ze was alone, he did not show any weakness.

His sword was as fast as the wind and was invincible.

However, there were too many enemies and they were clearly outnumbered.

What's more, he had just returned from a battle and his physical strength was no longer as good as before.

In a hurry, Chu Ze roared:
"Black Hawk! You coward, if you have the guts, don't hide in the dark, fight me openly!"

Before he finished speaking, a cold voice came from deep in the woods.

"Chu Ze, you really don't know your own limitations.

How dare you, a mere defeated soldier, act so recklessly here?"

Black Hawk's voice sent shudders down the spine of everyone present.

He walked out of the woods step by step, staring at Chu Ze fiercely.

“Last time, it was thanks to your secret technique that you were able to hurt me.

Now that I have recovered from my injuries, I will definitely teach you a lesson!"

Black Hawk raised the giant axe in his hand and let out a fierce roar.

The men in black all around stepped back, leaving a bloody path for their leader.

"Chu Ze, do you dare to fight me?"

Black Hawk stared at Chu Ze fiercely, with endless murderous intent in his voice.

But just this one look made Chu Ze feel like a thorn in his back and shudder.

He couldn't help but think of the evil magic the other party used when he summoned the black hole.

This Black Hawk is no longer something that ordinary people can contend with!
However, running away is not what a man should do. Chu Ze gritted his teeth and jumped off the horse.

"Black Hawk, you are such a despicable villain, you actually colluded with Zhu Biao and tried to murder me.

If I don't kill you, I won't be a human being!"

After saying this, Chu Ze mobilized all his internal energy and raised the Void-Breaking Sword above his head.

The sword glowed green and sword energy soared into the sky.

Black Hawk was not to be outdone and swung his giant axe to attack him. The two sides fought again, back and forth.

However, this time, Chu Ze clearly felt overwhelmed.

After just a few rounds, he was already sweating and panting.

However, the Black Hawk became more and more courageous as the battle went on, showing no signs of fatigue at all.

It turns out that he really recovered from his injuries, and his cultivation is even better than before!
Chu Ze secretly thought that something was wrong and countless thoughts flashed through his mind.

As he was hesitating, Black Hawk seized the opportunity and swung his axe at his face.

At the critical moment, Chu Ze quickly dodged to the side and barely avoided it.

Black Hawk's axe still cut off half of his sleeve, and blood was dripping!
"Damn it!" Chu Ze cursed inwardly, knowing that if he continued like this, he would surely die.

He quickly mobilized the true energy in his body, trying to unleash the miraculous effect of the Void-Breaking Sword.

However, to his despair, the sword did not react at all.

Only then did he suddenly realize that the Jade Seal of Destiny was not with him and the Void-Breaking Sword had also lost its power.

Now I am just an ordinary person, how can I be a match for Black Hawk?
In desperation, Chu Ze shouted loudly and stabbed Black Hawk in the chest with all his strength.

This sword embodies all his life's skills and is a last-ditch killing move.

However, Black Hawk smiled contemptuously and took the fatal blow with his bare hands!
"Is that all you can do?" Black Hawk looked at Chu Ze with disdain and sneered.

"I thought it was so powerful, but it turned out to be nothing more than that."

Before he finished speaking, Black Hawk flipped his wrist and broke Chu Ze's sword!
At the same time, he raised the giant axe with his other hand and chopped it hard at Chu Ze's crown.

Chu Ze's pupils shrank and everything in front of his eyes went dark.

At this critical moment, he suddenly thought of someone.

"Arong, I'm sorry."

I'm sorry I couldn't go back to reunite with you.

I'm sorry I didn't get to see the birth.

I'm sorry that I can't do more for the people.

Thinking of this, Chu Ze closed his eyes in despair.

Pray silently in my heart: I hope we can meet again in the next life
At this moment, a loud voice suddenly sounded in the air.

"stop!"

Suddenly, a white-haired old man appeared in the center of the battlefield.

He was wearing a gray robe and holding a cane, looking frail.

But when he opened his mouth to speak, the entire battlefield fell silent.

"Black Hawk, you beast, don't stop!"

The old man shouted angrily, his voice as loud as a bell, deafening.

When Black Hawk heard the sound, he was shocked and quickly put away his giant axe.

"It's you?!"

He looked at the old figure in front of him in disbelief, his face full of horror.

"How will you be here?"

The old man snorted coldly, his eyes sharp.

"I have always been here, but you ants can't see my existence."

He walked slowly to Chu Ze, took out a pill and stuffed it into his mouth.

In an instant, Chu Ze felt a warm current flowing through his body, and the wound healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

He opened his eyes in surprise and looked at the old man beside him.

"Senior, who are you?"

The old man smiled faintly and spoke in a calm tone.

"I am an ancient immortal. I have come to the mortal world to help you overcome your difficulties."

"Your feud with Black Hawk stems from a prophecy many years ago."

"Back then, I observed the celestial phenomena and discovered that your two destinies were intertwined and that you were destined to fight to the death in this space and time."

"But at that time, your cultivation was still shallow and you were not each other's opponents."

"So I'm secretly guiding you to help you grow as quickly as possible."

"Until today, your strength has reached its peak. It's time to end it all."

Chu Ze was shocked when he heard this and couldn't believe it for a moment. (End of this chapter)
