The Prodigal Son

The fierce fighting continues.

At some point, the rain intensified.

Under the relentless onslaught of the Daning cavalry, the Chu army finally could not hold on any longer. Even with the supervision of the battle team, the soldiers continued to retreat.

"Hold on, push it up!"

"Anyone who dares to flee, kill them!"

"Kill! Kill them all!"

The Chu army generals kept shouting, but faced with the overwhelming momentum of the Da Ning cavalry, the Chu army, filled with fear, continued to retreat.

The further they went, the more space they left for the Daning cavalry.

"Kill! Kill them all!"

Yuan Dingguo grew increasingly excited as he killed, leading his Wudang Flying Cavalry in a continuous rampage through the Chu army.

Xiong Quhu, Pei Xiao, and Han Chong also led their troops to charge into the enemy lines, shattering the Chu army's complete formation. Even when wounded, they did not stop for a moment.

The Chu army, which was originally supposed to divide and annihilate the Da Ning cavalry, was instead divided by the Da Ning cavalry, and fell in droves under their charge.

At the forefront of the battlefield, Qin Yu had already set his sights on the enemy's command flag, leading his personal guards like sharp knives to pierce it.

Seeing Qin Yu leading his troops in a swift and unstoppable charge, Deng Pu's expression suddenly changed, and he roared with his giant sword, "Protect the banner! Kill them!"

Under Deng Pu's orders, the Chu army of the Imperial Guard immediately charged towards Qin Yu and his men, who were attacking them with unwavering courage.

Several of Deng Pu's top fighters also leaped out and headed straight for Qin Yu.

"Well done!"

Zeng Guan laughed loudly, his long sword flashing up and down, knocking down several Chu soldiers in succession. After killing an eighth-realm expert with one sword, he rushed straight towards the ninth-realm expert.

clang clang...

The weapons of both sides clashed repeatedly.

Zeng Guan's original intention was to find a master of the enemy army to fight and seek a breakthrough. He was lucky to find an opponent who was evenly matched with him, so he immediately gave it his all and fought more and more bravely.

With a ninth-realm expert who had once held off the enemy, Qin Yu and his group felt much less pressure.

At this moment, the "special forces" that Qin Fumeng sent to Qin Yu finally came in handy.

Although the enemy's guards were all elite soldiers, Qin Yu's personal guards were even more elite.

The two sides fought fiercely, with screams and roars filling the air.

"Kill! Kill..."

Qin Yu, his eyes bloodshot with rage, relentlessly slashed at the enemy with his eighth-level strength, then roared at Qi Dachui beside him, "Don't worry about me, go help Boss Zeng! Quickly take care of the enemy's experts and kill their commander!"

Qi Dachui shook his head and roared, "No, I have to protect..."

"Go quickly!"

Qin Yu roared in fury, his eyes bloodshot, "This is a battlefield! Stop the fucking dawdling!"

Qi Dachui hesitated for a moment, then turned and shouted at Qin Xiong and the others, "Protect Young Master Thirteen and Miss Que'er!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he leaped off his warhorse and swung his golden mace at Zeng Guan, who was being besieged.

Without the protection of Qi Dachui, Qin Yu faced increasing pressure as he faced a constant stream of guards.

However, having fought to this point, Qin Yu couldn't care less about anything else.

Only by cutting down the enemy's banner and killing their commander can we end the battle as soon as possible.

In the chaos, Qin Yu felt as if he had been bitten by a mosquito, but he didn't bother to check. He just kept swinging his sword to kill enemy soldiers and kept getting closer to the enemy's command flag.

Finally, Qin Yu led his troops through the enemy's protective banner camp and fought their way to the enemy's command flag.

brush!

A blade of energy swept past, and the enemy's command flag collapsed with a crash.

At the same time, Zeng Guan and Qi Dachui joined forces to kill the ninth-realm expert.

"General, we can't hold out any longer! Retreat!"

Seeing that the situation was hopeless, the guards quickly escorted Deng Pu to retreat.

Demp stared blankly as the flag crashed down, and was carried away like a puppet.

Finished!

They were utterly defeated!

"Where are you going?"

Zeng Guan and Qi Dachui roared almost simultaneously, charging towards Deng Pu with murderous intent.

boom!

Qi Dachui swung his hammer, smashing several of the guards at the rear into the air, sending them flying like a meat grinder towards Deng Pu.

Zeng Guan leaped up, his toes lightly tapping the heads of the chaotic enemy soldiers. In a few leaps, he had blocked Deng Pu's path.

Before him came Zeng Guan, and after him came Qi Dachui.

Seeing no hope of escape, Dempsey could only brandish his sword and roar, "Kill!"

At the same time, Zeng Guan and Qi Dachui charged toward Deng Pu one after the other.

At this moment, Demp no longer had any skilled protectors around him.

Although his personal guards were quite strong, their strength was clearly insufficient against Zeng Guan and Qi Dachui.

Qi Dachui continued to strike with his golden mace, getting closer and closer to Deng Pu.

Finally, Qi Dachui arrived at Deng Pu's side.

Despite knowing he was outmatched, Deng Pu still swung his sword at Qi Dachui.

"clang!"

Qi Dachui deflected the blade, then swept his hammer across Deng Pu's chest.

"puff!"

Demp spat out a jet of blood and flew backward.

brush!

A flash of sword light, and Dempsey's head flew into the sky.

Zeng Guan grabbed Deng Pu's head and threw it to Qi Dachui, "The rest is up to you! I'm going to meet that grandmaster!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zeng Guan immediately dashed away into the distance.

Qi Dachui grabbed Deng Pu's head and hesitated for a moment before raising it high and roaring with all his might, like an angry Vajra, "The traitor is dead!"

Qi Dachui's voice pierced through the rain and reached the ears of the Chu army, whose morale was on the verge of collapse.

"General Deng is dead, General Deng is dead..."

"Run!"

"I surrender, I surrender..."

With Deng Pu killed and the commander's flag cut down, the Chu army's morale was quickly shattered.

Large numbers of soldiers began to surrender, while those who attempted to escape were mostly mercilessly slaughtered by the Da Ning cavalry.

The rain intensified, seemingly extinguishing even the flames of war.

Looking up, one could see large swathes of Chu troops surrendering, with only sporadic fighting continuing in a few places.

The rain washed away the bloodstains on the soldiers, but the strong smell of blood lingered for a long time.

As the battle gradually came to an end, Qin Yu was finally able to stop and rest.

"Huffing and puffing..."

Qin Yu gripped his battle sword, which had been chipped and dulled by the blows, and plopped down on the blood-soaked muddy ground, panting heavily.

Even though he is now an eighth-level expert, he was still quite exhausted after the fierce battle.

Nan Que'er rushed to Qin Yu, grabbed his arm, and said with a pained expression, "You're injured!"

"It's nothing! It's just a minor injury."

Qin Yu grinned and patted Nan Que'er's hand dismissively.

"Yeah, right!"

Nan Que'er's eyes reddened as she carefully removed his slashed arm guard and cleaned his wounds.

"hiss……"

When his wound was touched, Qin Yu gasped in pain.

"Now you know what pain is? Where did that reckless spirit go?"

Nan Que'er glared at him fiercely, but her movements became even gentler, as if afraid of hurting him.

Qin Yu had several experts protecting her the whole time, so she wasn't injured.

But it was precisely because Qin Yu had someone protect her that Qin Yu himself got injured.

"Can things be the same on the battlefield and off the battlefield?"

Qin Yu chuckled, "When you're blinded by rage, who cares about pain!"

When Qin Yu's sleeve was torn open, a deep wound came into Nan Que'er's view.

Nan Que'er bit her thin lips, wanting to say something, but her throat felt like it was blocked...
