Infinite Fighting

Wang Yuanhua's men quickly consumed the pills given to them by Zhang Ji.

He clearly sensed the changes in his body.

The feeling of being filled with power and having all the stubborn ailments cured is wonderful.

But the more this was the case, the more worried he became about potential side effects.

Unlike Cao Wei, he didn't simply see it as a benefit.

However, after carefully examining his feelings, he found that there was indeed nothing wrong with it.

His inner energy became more profound, and he seemed to have returned to his youthful state. The old injuries that had been causing him pain for years due to his long voyages had all been completely healed.

Wang Yuanhua's understanding of Zhang Ji was instantly refreshed.

He pondered, deciding to try and gain favor with Zhang Ji.

So Wang Yuanhua rode forward and bowed to Zhang Ji, saying, "Mr. Zhang, I see that the marching troops have not yet conducted any reconnaissance. How about I lead some men to take turns scouting?"

If there's no work, find something for yourself to do. Show your abilities and how you handle things in front of your superiors; it's always good.

Zhang nodded indifferently.

His perception was clearly more effective than that of the scouts.

But he didn't care. He let Wang Yuanhua and the others do whatever they wanted, since it wouldn't affect the final result anyway.

Wang Yuanhua immediately accepted the order and led a few men to ride at full speed to the front of the column.

After taking the pills given to them by Zhang Ji, the horses' speed increased significantly. In just half a day, they covered the distance that would normally take two days to march.

They encountered cities along the way, but Zhang Ji did not lead his men to attack them. Instead, he bypassed them and planned to head straight for the capital.

He would only consider fighting if the people in the city came out to cause them trouble.

Wang Yuanhua and his team would occasionally have someone return to relay information, and then a replacement would go to conduct reconnaissance.

They did it quite well, though.

Soon it got dark.

There was no plan to travel at night, so there was no cooking. Zhang Ji tossed Cao Wei a spatial box and took out steaming hot food from it.

Wang Yuanhua and others were shocked by this scene, and their loyalty increased rapidly.

Manifesting divine power is always the best way to inspire awe and reverence in ordinary people.

No amount of reasoning can compare to the persuasive power of you taking to the sky.

At this moment, a scout sent a message back, saying that he had seen a large number of troops ahead.

“Mr. Zhang, I suspect that the imperial court has conscripted about two thousand troops from nearby Qinji to quell the rebellion in Ancheng. What do you think we should do, temporarily avoid their advance, or…” Wang Yuanhua asked for instructions.

“You all rest, I’m going to take a look,” Zhang Ji said.

Wang Yuanhua said, “Mr. Zhang, you are indeed brave enough to fight ten thousand men, but there are many people on the battlefield, so it may not be easy to make good use of your strength. It is night now, so I think we should harass them first, and when they are exhausted, you can lead us to charge in and capture their leader.”

Making a living at sea, Wang Yuanhua has plenty of free time.

He didn't spend his spare time playing cards with his subordinates, but instead read books.

He read all sorts of books, including many military treatises. He even used them a few times when facing pirates, achieving good results.

Therefore, Wang Yuanhua was not unfamiliar with the matter of fighting.

However, Zhang Ji waved his hand and said, "No need."

Then he left.

A quarter of an hour later.

Zhang Ji is back.

She was still wearing the same light-colored clothes, spotless.

Wang Yuanhua assumed that Zhang Ji had simply gone out to scout things out, so he didn't ask any further questions.

Until the next day, they marched to the vicinity of where the army was stationed.

Everyone was stunned.

Limbs and pieces of flesh were scattered everywhere, along with broken weapons and fragments of armor. At the very center was a huge circular crater.

How big exactly?

It does have a diameter of over 200 meters.

This crater looks like it was created by a meteorite.

But Wang Yuanhua and his team knew very well that it was definitely not a crater caused by a meteorite.

A regular army of two thousand men was wiped out without a sound.

The important thing is the mark; it doesn't look like something a human could create.

Cao Wei stared at Zhang Ji, while Wang Yuanhua also occasionally glanced back and forth between the ruins and Zhang Ji.

Such horrific signs of destruction, yet they heard no sound.

Did Mr. Zhang really make it?

“Mr. Zhang, did you make this?” Wang Yuanhua asked tentatively.

Under normal circumstances, he would not investigate Zhang Ji's secrets.

But now, he was so curious about this scene, so eager to know the answer.

Zhang Ji nodded slightly, which was considered his answer.

Wang Yuanhua's pupils suddenly contracted, and Cao Wei was in no better shape.

Their hair stood on end as they watched the figure calmly riding forward on horseback, as if they were witnessing some catastrophe capable of destroying the world.

It exceeded their wildest imaginations.

Humans cannot do this; it is impossible for them to do such a thing!!!
But the facts are undeniable, leaving them no choice but to believe them.

Cao Wei's heart skipped a few beats, he forgot to breathe, felt his vision go black, and felt a bit short of breath.

He felt he understood Zhang Jiping's detached and aloof attitude a little better now.

With such power, he doesn't care about anything mundane.

The mindset of the soldiers on the march had also changed.

Their eyes now held a burning faith in Zhang Ji.

Even if Zhang Ji told them now that fighting for himself would allow them to be resurrected and enjoy eternal happiness even if they died, they would still believe it and truly risk their lives to fight for Zhang Ji.

"Tap tap tap tap~!"

Led by Gu Shanliu himself, a total of three thousand Tianlang Guards left Taiping and headed for Ancheng.

Now, less than a thousand Heavenly Wolf Guards remain in the capital.

His Majesty's attitude has been made very clear.

Some people must die.

It wasn't just Cao Wei, but also those traitors. Three thousand Heavenly Wolf Guards were more than enough to take down a city; it was like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut.

But Gu Shanliu didn't want anything to go wrong; since he was personally involved, things had to succeed.

Two days after Gu Shanliu set off, news came from Ancheng that it had fallen into the hands of the rebels. Gu Shanliu also received the letter and thought to himself that his caution was justified.

If we bring too few men, let alone quell the rebellion, it will be difficult to even enter the city and kill Cao Wei.

Suddenly, the sky changed.

A thunderclap boomed, and Gu Shanliu and the others prepared to set up camp and rest.

However, a group of people appeared not far away.

There is a flag that resembles the Chinese character "张" (Zhang).

I've never heard of it, nor should I.

The banners carried by the imperial army should bear the names of the local areas, not the surnames of the leaders.

"Boom~!"

Thunder roared, followed by a torrential downpour.

Gu Shanliu wanted to send someone to make contact and find out information about the other party, but the other party had already approached.

This is a very dangerous signal.

However, the other side had fewer troops, so Gu Shanliu remained still and gave an order, which prompted some people to spur their horses forward to prepare for contact.

Midway through the journey, the opposing officer picked up a long spear and aimed it at the Tianlang Guards on Gu Shanliu's side.

Before Gu Shanliu could remind him, the spear had already flown out.

"Boom~!"

"Pfft~!"

"Whoosh~!"

The spear that grazed past Gu Shanliu pierced through dozens of heavily armored Tianlang Guards and disappeared into the distance.

Gu Shanliu touched the blood seeping from the scratches on her cheek, a hint of confusion appearing in her eyes.

But his confusion did not last long, and the two sides made contact and went to war.

There was no negotiation, and not even the slightest intention to explain.

Taniyama Ryu didn't know what the other side was fighting for.

All he knew was that his side was being slaughtered almost entirely.

Moreover, this victory was achieved solely by the opposing general.

The sight of him charging around recklessly and casually swinging his weapon to kill a whole group of people was unbelievable to Taniyama Ryu.

If Zhang Ji himself were to describe this scene, it would be like unleashing a rampage of carnage.

He even held back, causing some of the men he brought to lose their lives.

Gu Shanliu still had two Thousand Wolf Leaders under his command, who were also in this army.

One is named Duan Fei, and the other is named Luo Rui.

They too had fought their way out like venomous insects, possessing the power of the tenth level of the Wolf Breath realm, and were even comparable to Gu Shanliu himself.

But they were both killed after being grazed by the aftershock of Zhang Ji's attack.

Soon, the fearless Sirius Guards scattered and began to flee.

But there's no escaping it.

The figure was too fast, and the horse beneath him was also extremely fast.

Almost instantly, they can fight their way from the front lines to the back.

After several rounds, their men were almost all gone.

Gu Shanliu managed to fend off the attacks of several of Zhang Ji's soldiers, but was knocked off his horse.

In the rain, he tried to get up several times but was knocked down again, his whole body covered in mud and water.

Finally, the demon god who slaughtered everything arrived before him and uttered a cryptic statement.

"Is it fun?"

Play?
Was he just playing around?
Gu Shanliu doesn’t understand, and doesn’t understand either.

He forced his eyes open and saw Cao Wei's figure.

"So it was you."

"Pfft~!"

Cao Wei beheaded Gu Shanliu with a single stroke, completing the first step in his revenge.

Zhang Ji's inner energy surged, expanding into a rainless area. Looking at the countless corpses around him, he suddenly felt like laughing.

He actually got angry at these mortals and caused such a mess.

I've been suppressing myself in that confused state for too long.

He even started arguing with these ordinary people.

"This is too undignified. Let's finish this quickly and call it a day," Zhang Ji muttered.

After venting, the negative emotions in my heart decreased significantly.

Zhang Ji has no intention of committing further pointless killings.

Next, we'll go straight to the capital, kick the emperor off the throne, and throw Cao Wei on top, and that'll be the end of it.

Cao Wei was unaware that Zhang Ji had arranged for him to become emperor. He was still immersed in the euphoria of his successful revenge and it took him a long time to come back to his senses.

Having personally experienced this battle, Cao Wei and Wang Yuanhua finally truly understood just how strong Zhang Ji was.

Those armors that could withstand gunfire and cannons were like paper in front of Zhang Ji.

A single charge can pierce through any army; no one can stop it.

In this battle, Zhang Ji single-handedly slaughtered over 90% of the enemy, like a god or a demon.

They could sense that Zhang Ji was even in a state of restraint.

After all, they had just seen the huge crater that looked like it had been hit by a meteorite not long ago.

After a brief rest following the first battle, they continued their journey.

Just one day later, they arrived in front of the magnificent capital city of Tai'an.

Hundreds of meters away, Zhang Ji threw a long spear.

"Boom~!"

The air exploded, bursting forth in a burst of red flames.

This beam of light tore through everything around it, shattering and destroying the city gate! (End of Chapter)
