The world begins with refining skills

Chapter 233: Your fucking name is Ye Liuyun?

From the time the Northern Qi army arrived within an arrow's reach of Yulong City to the time the two city gates including the city gate were pierced through, the entire process took only a few breaths.

The Nanqing defenders on the city gate tower had just pulled their bows and crossbows to full draw when they saw a smoke dragon rising from the ground in front of the Northern Qi army.

With the roar of the earth dragon turning over, the dragon in the clouds and smoke raised its head and roared, and then the Nanqing defenders felt the city wall under their feet tremble violently.

"What's going on? What happened just now?"

"No, the city gate is broken!"

"Shoot the arrow, shoot the arrow quickly!"

"."

Before the war, Ye Chong was ambitious and planned to swallow up the 150,000 Northern Qi troops in one swoop, and then counterattack Yizhou to gain the credit for expanding the territory.

He even exclaimed: "Destroy the city with one strike! This is definitely not something a warrior below the Grandmaster can do!"

Could it be that the grand master of Northern Qi took action?

That's impossible, Kuhei doesn't look like this!

Ye Zhong tried hard to recall the fleeting figure.

'The Cult of Destiny!'

"It's a strange warrior from the Siming Cult!"

'How can it be! ’

"The Siming Divine Cult actually has a Grand Master!"

Ye Zhong's shock did not affect the charge of the Northern Qi army at all.

Seeing that the gate of the impregnable Yulong City was breached so easily, the morale of the Northern Qi soldiers increased greatly and they rushed forward with shouts.

Even faster than the Northern Qi soldiers were the deformed warriors of the Siming Cult.

Five deformed warriors with bird heads and human bodies and wings on their backs rushed to the front.

Although due to the proportion of their wingspan to their body, they cannot really fly like birds.

But with the help of dorsal wings, the speed of these deformed warriors is greatly enhanced, and they can jump higher.

The soldiers on the city wall were still frantically drawing their bows and shooting arrows, or shouting as they moved rolling logs and rocks, preparing to block the city gate.

The five bird-headed warriors swept across the moat like a gust of wind, their wings flapping rapidly behind them, turning into a blurry shadow.

shhhhhh!
Then, like a fighter jet taking off, he easily leaped onto the top of the city wall and headed straight for the mechanism of the moat drawbridge.

"not good!"

"Stop them!"

Ye Chong discovered the purpose of the bird-headed warriors, shouted loudly and pounced on them.

"Big coffin-splitting hand!"

In shock and anger, Ye Zhong gathered all his energy and slapped the bird head of the deformed warrior closest to him.

According to intelligence from the Overwatch Council, the weakness of these monsters lies in their heads.

With the strength of the ninth rank, it wouldn't take much time to kill these monsters of the seventh rank.

As long as we can save the drawbridge and block the city gate, the current crisis can be resolved.

Thinking of this, Ye Zhong squeezed out some strength from his body.

The muscles in his arm bulged, violent true energy gushed out, and his palm crushed down on the bird's head like a mountain falling.

The palm wind even pressed down the feathers on the bird's face.

However, faced with such ferocious palm power, Bird Head did not panic.

If he were at the battle of the ruined temple, he would only be able to choose a way to die beautifully.

But he is no longer the same person now!
After being strengthened by Lord Sima Ming, he became terrifyingly strong!
"Wow!"

An eagle cry came out of the bird's mouth, and its body instantly became blurred.

After leaving an afterimage on the spot, the body suddenly moved several feet to the right.

And these few short feet are the distance between life and death.

"How can it be!"

After seeing the speed of the bird head, Ye Zhong was shocked. Didn’t the people from the Supervisory Office say that these monsters were only at the seventh level of strength?

This speed is not only faster than that of an eighth-grade cultivator, but even some ninth-grade cultivators who are not good at speed are not as fast as this.

If such important intelligence could be wrong, it's no wonder that the Supervisory Council's organization in Northern Qi was easily destroyed.

'Damn it, Chen Pingping misled me!'

Ye Zhong probably thought that he couldn't stop the enemy from lowering the drawbridge, so he vented his anger on the enemy in front of him.

I saw his palm style change from slapping to sweeping, and the palm force turned into a white streak, slashing towards the bird-headed body.

The bird head bent its knees slightly, flapped its wings behind it, and flew out instantly.

However, the distance between the two was too close, and his left arm was still swept, but the bird's dorsal wing also took the opportunity to leave a wound on Ye Zhong's body.

At the same time, two of the remaining four deformed warriors were sent to support Birdhead, while the other two continued to move towards the control mechanism of the suspension bridge.

"I'm injured!" Ye Zhong touched the wound under his ribs. Although it was shallow, he was indeed injured.

"The bodies of these monsters are different from those of ordinary people. We can't use the usual fighting methods!"

Ye Chong instantly felt how difficult these monsters were.

It’s like everyone is using weapons in their right hands, and suddenly they meet someone holding a sword in their left hand. Everyone will feel uncomfortable.

This kind of inadaptability may very likely lead to injury or death.

"General!"

"Protect the general!"

Ye Zhong's personal guards and the two deformed warriors supporting Bird Head arrived one after another.

On one side were the ninth-rank master Ye Zhong and hundreds of his personal soldiers, and on the other side were three eighth-rank deformed warriors. The two groups began to fight each other.

On the other side, the two deformed warriors were like a tiger entering a flock of sheep or an eagle swooping down on a rabbit. Wherever they passed, the Nanqing soldiers' spears were broken, their armor was shattered, and they died.

He rushed under the suspension bridge mechanism with almost no hindrance.

when! when!
The deformed claws scratched the iron chain, and the erected suspension bridge fell down with a bang, spanning the moat, paving the way in front of the Northern Qi army.

As soon as the suspension bridge fell, thirty deformed warriors with hideous appearances stepped up, followed by the densely packed Northern Qi army.

"Shoot the arrow, shoot the arrow!"

"Where's the golden log? Throw it down for me!"

Some Nanqing generals were unwilling to lose the city in such an unclear manner, and they still organized their soldiers to attack the enemy.

However, the city gate had been broken, and the Northern Qi soldiers rushed straight to the city gate, while above the city gate there were two deformed warriors firing their unparalleled weapons.

An ordinary eighth-grade warrior would not be able to hold out for long against the siege of such a large army.

After all, two fists are no match for four hands. Martial artists below the level of Grand Master are still human and will die if hit in the vitals.

But the distorted warriors are different. Apart from the distorted core in their heads, they have no other vital parts.

Ordinary soldiers were not masters like Ye Chong and Shadow, so it was impossible for them to hit the deformed warrior's head.

All the Nanqing defenders could do in counterattack was to shoot arrows at the enemies below the city from a position far away from the city gate tower.

Although it was impossible to prevent the Northern Qi soldiers from entering the city, because there was only one suspension bridge, the Northern Qi soldiers gathered in one place.

If they could keep shooting, they would cause considerable casualties to the Northern Qi soldiers.

But this is ultimately just a delusion of the Nanqing defenders.

next moment,
The deformed warriors at the front did not enter the city through the breach in the city gate, but dispersed in a fan shape.

Using his dagger-like claws, he climbed up the city wall in a few strokes and started a massacre in front of the desperate gaze of the Nanqing defenders.

"Charge!" "Kill! Kill the Qing thief!"

"You will be promoted today!"

"Charge into the city, steal food, money, and women!"

The Northern Qi soldiers rushed into Yunlong City with fanaticism on their faces. They originally thought that they were going to lose their lives in vain under the command of an incompetent commander.

I never thought that Yunlong City, with its strong fortifications and vast military might, could be breached so easily.

They shrink back and hesitate when the odds are against them, but become very excited when the odds are in their favor and they are eager to harvest kills!
Some people rushed up the city wall from the stairs of the inner wall, and started to massacre the Nanqing defenders with the deformed warriors. Some people rushed directly into the city and launched a siege on the enemies inside.

The Nanqing defenders were retreating step by step and were on the verge of defeat.

In theory, the army of Southern Qing was stronger than that of Northern Qi in terms of both equipment and soldiers. Even without the support of the city, it should have been able to defeat Northern Qi.

But military morale is sometimes so mysterious.

The iron-clad Yulong City was breached in the blink of an eye, and there were so many monsters and demons in the enemy army.

Fear spread quickly among the Nanqing defenders like a plague.

Even though the generals tried their best to organize and gather their troops, the Nanqing defenders were unable to organize a decent counterattack.

The 20,000 Nanqing troops that Ye Chong had sent out to ambush in advance now didn't know what to do.

“Damn it! Damn it!” Ye Zhong roared in helplessness and rage.

In this short period of time, hundreds of his personal soldiers were killed, and the enemy also had several wounds on their bodies.

The bird-head leader even had his arm blown off by him.

But Ye Zhong knew that this injury was nothing to these monsters.

"We can't defend Yulong City by ourselves. We can only rely on uncle!"

"Uncle, why don't you take action yet?"

Ye Zhong shouted anxiously in his heart, hoping that the tall and strong man would appear and save everything.

But no matter how long he waited, Ye Liuyun didn't make any move.

Instead, Four Arms and Shark Face came with a few deformed warriors to support Bird Head.

Ye Zhong's side, which had been able to gain the upper hand, was instantly hit hard.

Not only were a large number of his personal soldiers slaughtered, but Ye Chong himself was also injured, with his clothes on his chest and back soaked with blood.

At this moment, a figure with fluttering sleeves and graying temples suddenly appeared on the city wall. The man had deep eyes, and his every move exuded an otherworldly aura.

"Uncle!" Ye Zhong shouted in surprise.

It turned out that the person who came was his uncle, Ye Liuyun, one of the four great masters of the time.

"Ah~"

Ye Liuyun sighed helplessly. According to the tacit understanding between the grand masters, he should not have taken action.

Otherwise, with the grandmaster's martial arts power, he would attack at will without any scruples.

Today you break my city, and tomorrow I kill your relatives. This is a scene that no one wants to see.

After all, the Grand Master also has his own weaknesses.

For example, Emperor Qing Li Yunqian's ambition to unify the world, Si Gu Jian's Dongyi City, Ku He's Northern Qi royal family, and Ye Liuyun's Ye family.

It is precisely because everyone has something to worry about that this kind of tacit understanding exists.

"I thought that Northern Qi relied on Ku He, but I didn't expect..."

"Forget it, I can't let Yulong City be lost under my nose!"

At this point, Ye Liuyun no longer dwelled on the matter. With a thought, his body moved like clouds in the sky, gathering and dispersing, and floated towards the location where Ye Chong and the others were.

"It's Grandmaster Ye Liuyun!"

Just when Ye Liuyun appeared, Uesugi Tora of the Northern Qi army under the city discovered him.

"Oh no, Master Imperial Master, it's Ye Liuyun, the Grand Master of Nanqing! These Qing thieves are so shameless!" Uesugi Hu said indignantly.

Ever since he saw Niu Niu break open the gate of Yulong City, Uesugi Tiger's suspicion of Maki Sheng had completely disappeared.

This method of breaking a city was something that Uesugi Tora had never even thought of, let alone seen.

Just when it seemed that the enemy was about to be defeated, a grandmaster suddenly appeared. These Nanqing villains really have no moral principles!

"Master Imperial Master, what should we do now?"

Uesugi Tora looked at Maki Sheng anxiously, and then found that the other party was looking at him with a smile on his face.

"Xiao Hu! It takes a thousand days to raise an army but only a moment to deploy it. It's time for you to dedicate yourself to Northern Qi!"

"Go, kill Ye Liuyun!"

"Me?" Uesugi Tora widened his eyes in surprise.

Should I kill Ye Liuyun?

Are you speaking human language?
Why don’t you just let me destroy the Qing Kingdom?
Although Uesugi Tora is also at the upper ninth rank, he is at the early upper ninth rank level.

Let alone a grandmaster, he wasn't even sure he could defeat an ordinary ninth-grade master.

In other words, Uesugi Tora has not read Journey to the West, otherwise he would be able to deeply understand Benboerba's feelings.

"Yes, it's you. Are you ready?" said Makisho as he grabbed the back of Uesugi Tora's neck with one hand and his belt with the other.

"Ready? Wait, Master Imperial Master, what are you going to do?"

Under Shangshanhu's horrified gaze, Mu Sheng lifted him up horizontally.

Then he leaned back slightly and made a throwing motion.

"Master Imperial Master, please don't..."

"Go! Tiger Roars to the Ninth Heaven!"

"what!!!"

A burst of true energy surged into Uesugi Tora's body, and then his body was thrown out like a cannonball.

Judging from the trajectory, its target is Ye Liuyun on the city wall.

"That voice is so loud, just like slaughtering a pig!"

Mu Sheng nodded with satisfaction, then paused, and disappeared from the spot the next moment.

"Ok?"

Just as Ye Liuyun was about to attack the deformed warriors who were besieging Ye Zhong, his attention was attracted by Uesugi Tiger's loud voice.

It wasn’t because his screams were miserably enough, but because the direction in which he was flying just happened to block Ye Liuyun’s route.

And the subtle sense of threat from him made Ye Liuyun dare not be careless.

"Is it Ku He? Or..." Ye Liuyun glanced at the strange-looking deformed warrior with his peripheral vision.

A bold guess emerged in my mind.

No wonder Northern Qi, despite being inferior to Southern Qing in every aspect, would, contrary to its usual practice, take the initiative to start a war.

If that were the case, then everything would be explained.

"So, the real target is me?"

Ye Liuyun's expression became solemn. He used his own Liuyun Sanshou technique to slap the tiger upwards, while his mind was paying close attention to the surrounding environment.

Bang!
At the moment of contact, the true energy in Shangshanhu's body instantly surged out, canceling out Ye Liuyun's attack.

Shangshanhu's figure also fell on the city wall.

Just as Ye Liuyun was paying attention to his surroundings vigilantly, a voice suddenly sounded from behind him.

"Your name is Ye Liuyun?"
