Many children, many blessings; a stunningly beautiful wife is given to you right from the start.

The three enormous creatures charged forward, letting out a deafening roar!

That wasn't a roar, it was a sonic wave!

The air currents rolled in, kicking up dust that slammed into everyone's faces.

Wenruo, who was standing at the front, was thrown back several steps by the violent shockwave and fell to the ground with a thud, his old face turning pale.

He looked at the three mobile fortresses that resembled hills before him, then at the petite girl who wasn't even as tall as a giant elephant's leg.

My mind went blank, a complete void.

It’s over.

It's completely over.

Who would have thought that their princess, while chasing after a man, would actually steal the "Immovable Mountain," a priceless treasure from the Southern Frontier!

Shouldn't these three living ancestors be enjoying their old age in the back mountains of the Prince's Mansion, eating specially supplied fodder?

If he were to bump or bruise himself, the prince would surely hang himself from the flagpole to dry in the wind!

Wenruo felt that her life had come to an end.

Just as Wenruo was in a daze.

The leading giant elephant had already arrived in front of Xia Man'er.

It deftly extended its long trunk, gently rolled it up, and steadily placed Xia Man'er on its broad elephant back.

Xia Man'er, having climbed onto the elephant's back, didn't look at Wen Ruo again.

Instead, he turned and shouted at Liu Yiyi and Bai Zhi, who were completely stunned:

"Sister Liu, Sister Bai, please hurry back to Zhenbei City!"

"I'll go and rescue Brother Lin Mo!"

"Once we rescue him, we'll find you all, and the other sisters from Zhenbei City. Then we'll escape together!"

"Escape to southern Xinjiang!"

"With my father there, even the Ten Thousand Gu Tower wouldn't dare do anything to us!"

In Xia Man'er's mind, things were that simple.

Lin Mo's brother is in danger, so she goes to save him.

Get them out, everyone run!

Liu Yiyi looked at the small figure on the elephant's back, her lips moved, but she couldn't utter a single word.

Reason told her that this was crazy.

But looking at the three giant beasts that were as big as small mountains, she felt that this matter... might actually be a little possible.

After Xia Man'er finished giving her instructions, she patted the giant elephant's hard head forcefully and shouted in a cute but fierce voice:

"Big Barbarian, Second Barbarian, Little Barbarian!"

"Let's go! To save my husband!"

"hold head high--!"

The three giant elephants seemed to understand her words, raising their heads in unison and letting out a long, resounding neigh.

They turned around and took heavy, mountain-like steps.

Following closely behind the surging army that had already left the city, they charged into the shadowy battlefield outside the city without hesitation!

"Princess! Princess—!"

Wenruo got up from the ground, stretched out her hand, and let out a hoarse wail at the departing figure.

But that petite figure was quickly swallowed up by the swirling dust and the iron torrent of the Xuanjia Army.

Wenruo stood there, stamping his feet in frustration.

He wanted to chase after it, but his two old, rheumatic legs were no match for the pace of the war behemoth.

"Why……"

Wenruo lowered her hand dejectedly and sighed heavily.

Immediately, the expression on that panicked and desperate old face changed, and he regained his true colors as the chief strategist.

He whirled around abruptly and hissed at the shadows behind him:

"Agrand!"

"Your subordinate is here."

A lithe figure appeared behind him like a ghost, kneeling on one knee.

"Take everyone and follow the princess!"

Wenruo's voice carried a chilling resolve.

"Even if it means death, I will bring the princess back to me safely!"

"yes!"

Agrahn accepted the order, and his figure once again blended into the shadows and disappeared.

……

Outside the Blackwater Pass, iron hooves thundered.

Qin Ruxue took the lead, her silver armor standing out against the leaden sky like a bolt of lightning tearing through the darkness.

Behind her was a steel torrent formed by 30,000 iron cavalry and Xuanjia soldiers, and behind them were 70,000 infantrymen led by Meng Hu.

The army of 100,000 men was like a peerless, deadly sword drawn from its sheath, its blade pointing straight at the Cliff of Broken Souls!

Such a commotion quickly alerted the Qi King's camp, which was ten miles away.

A scout stumbled and crawled into the central command tent, still covered in gunpowder smoke.

As soon as he entered the tent, he saw a strange figure in a black robe standing next to the prince, which startled him.

He buried his head in his chest, not daring to look up at all.

Xia Yuan glanced at him.

"What is it?"

The scout swallowed hard and spoke as quickly as possible.

"Your Highness, the gates of Blackwater Pass are wide open, and the entire garrison has been mobilized!"

"Oh?"

Xia Yuan raised an eyebrow.

"speak."

"Your Highness, the army that has left the city numbers approximately 100,000, including 30,000 cavalry and 70,000 infantry. The leader appears to be Lin Mo's woman, Qin Ruxue!"

The scout paused, then lowered his voice even further.

"However... after they left the city, they didn't head towards our camp, but went straight to the Broken Soul Cliff in the east!"

Xia Yuan was taken aback upon hearing this.

Then he understood.

Go save that little bastard Lin Mo?

what.

A silent, cold smile crept across Xia Yuan's lips.

It's truly touching.

For the sake of a man, they actually mobilized the entire force of Blackwater Pass.

madness.

That's absolutely stupid!

However... this is exactly what he wanted!

"Pass on the order."

Xia Yuan stood up, walked to the huge sand table, and looked at the small flag representing Blackwater Pass.

"Forward Zhang Meng, form a trap and stop them!"

"Remember, no charging! Just hold your ground like nails and don't allow Qin Ruxue's army to get a single step closer to Broken Soul Cliff!"

One of the lieutenants immediately stepped forward and knelt on one knee:

"This subordinate obeys!"

Xia Yuan's fingers lightly traced across the sand table, drawing two deadly arcs on either side of Qin Ruxue's army.

"Issue the order again: the Tiger Guard Battalion on the left wing and the Eagle Flying Army on the right wing to flank and encircle the enemy from both sides."

His finger finally struck hard behind Qin Ruxue's army, like hammering in a coffin nail.

"Wrap these 100,000 people up like dumplings, seal them tightly!"

"I don't want anyone alive!"

"I want them to have no way out, to watch helplessly as their lord is devoured by the corpse puppets until only a skeleton remains!"

Xia Yuan spoke calmly, as if he were talking about a trivial matter.

"Once we wipe out all 100,000 reinforcements, there will be no one left to defend the entire Blackwater Pass."

"At that time, it will collapse on its own without being attacked."

"yes!"

Several generals responded in unison and quickly stepped out of the tent to relay the order.

Inside the spacious central command tent, Xia Yuan stood with his hands behind his back, turning his gaze once again to the cliff in the east shrouded in mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

Lin Mo, oh Lin Mo.

Did you see that?

Your beloved woman, in order to save you, is leading an army of 100,000, plunging headlong into the meat grinder I've prepared for you.

And you, you can only watch.

That feeling... must be very painful.

Xia Yuan slowly raised his hand and gave the messenger his final, and most vicious, order.

"Order Zhang Meng to slow down the encirclement."

"Give them a good spot, let them move forward a bit more."

"It is imperative that Lin Mo on Broken Soul Cliff sees this clearly."

How I crushed his women and his army into mincemeat, bit by bit!
