“Drive”
“Drive”
“Drive”
The sky is vast and the field is boundless, the setting sun shines afar.
South of Tianxiong Pass, over a thousand miles away, in the midst of cloudy mountains, the evening glow of the setting sun scatters across the forests and rivers.
On the official road leading to Jingguan City, a mighty procession of troops hurriedly advances, with horses whipped swiftly, shouts echoing through the woods, and three different types of flags fluttering in the wind.
These were indeed the troops withdrawing from Tianxiong Pass, from the Fourth Mountain, the Ninth Mountain, and the soldiers from Jiange Pass!
Traveling at breakneck speed from dawn to dusk, they covered a thousand miles without looking back.
As ti passed,
“Boom boom boom”
Flags suddenly appeared in the mountains and streams at their side,
more and more troops, from all directions, poured onto the official road heading to Jingguan City.
“The Seventh Mountain”
“The Eighth Mountain”
“…”
It was as if a grand assembly of troops had taken place!
Then, several streaks of light crossed the sky, followed by a series of calls…
“Brother Chang”
“Colonel Cheng”
“Colonel Wu from Jiange Pass is here too?”
“Seventh Colonel, long ti no see.”
“…”
Several figures t amid the mountains.
“It seems you too have received the ssage, alas.” Soone sighed and shook their head.
“The Lord is gone, our hearts are heavy with sorrow, I will never coexist with those beasts!” Soone clenched their teeth in anger.
“The Youn Pass has now been breached, it is estimated that the entire southern Bashu will fall.
This ti, the demons from the Ten Thousand Mountains clearly made ticulous and ample preparations.
First, they caused chaos everywhere during the Demon Tao Fruit Conference, dispersing our forces, and then they broke through Youn Pass.
This ti, I fear it won’t end well.” Soone frowned.
“By the way, Colonel Wu, you are the Pass Colonel of Jiange Pass, you should logically be in Jiange City.
How co you are with Colonel Chang, and, strangely, why are the flags of the Ninth Mountain here too?
Aren’t they supposed to…”
The speaker was the Colonel of the Seventh Mountain from the Mountain-cutting Army.
He ant to say that the Colonel of the Ninth Mountain had fallen and their entire troop had been badly crippled.
Among the group, Wu Sheng, clad in copper armor, had a complex expression upon hearing this, “This matter…
is a long story…”
Just as he was speaking, at the far end of the official road, a gleam of silver light approached quickly and grew larger, followed by the familiar sound of an eagle’s cry.
The figures in the sky stopped their conversation imdiately and looked towards the silver light.
They knew that it must be the Orderly Officer from The Overseers arriving!
Indeed, a Sky Shrieking Falcon quickly revealed its form; as it flew close to the Colonels who were eting,
it flapped its silver-iron-like wings once and ca to a halt.
On its back, an Orderly Officer with three red Command Flags inserted behind, saluted with his hand, “I didn’t expect that all the Lords had already gathered.
The Deputy Commander has issued three orders in a row, commanding the Lords to rush to Yunding Mountain for deliberation without delay.”
Having said this, the Orderly Armor Soldier, who had t Chen Yuan twice before, looked at the several Colonels with his eyes and then glanced below, he quickly asked,
“Excuse , Colonels, where is Colonel Chen of the Ninth Mountain?”
“The Deputy Commander has specifically asked to see him!”
Now, the two Colonels from the Mountain-cutting Army who had just rushed to the eting were a little surprised,
“Colonel Chen of the Ninth Mountain?”
“The new one?
Deputy Commander personally nad him?”
Several questions swirled in the minds of the Seventh and Eighth Colonels.
But at this mont, Colonel Wu Sheng of the Third Mountain spoke up, “Lord Chen is overseeing the pacification of Tianxiong Pass and is wrapping things up, he asked us to rush back with the troops first!”
Given that three orders had been issued consecutively, The Overseers must be in a hurry, so it was better to explain.
As he spoke, a spark of admiration flashed in Wu Sheng’s eyes as he rembered how decisively Chen Yuan had acted after receiving the tragic news.
“Lord Chen?”
This subtle change in address did not escape the notice of the other two Mountain-cutting Colonels, who were sowhat astonished.
“It’s an old habit I haven’t yet broken; when Colonel Chen was in Tianxiong Pass, he temporarily acted as our Main General, so it’s not inappropriate to address him this way.”
Changshan explained casually, without showing any particular emotion,
“Yes!
The Commander said that, in recognition of Colonel Chen’s rits at Tianxiong Pass, an investiture ceremony will be held for him!”
“What?”
…..
anwhile, as evening falls on this day, just outside the Southern City at Tianxiong Pass, so ten li from Jiuming Mountain.
From atop the cliff, one can oversee the distant Heroic Pass.
At this mont, the sound of hooves arises from the forest.
Followed by an excited voice.
“Big brother, we’re getting close to Tianxiong Pass, there’s a huge commotion inside, the families have united to launch a counterattack against the Sky Patrol Departnt, heh, what a ti to erge as heroes in troubled tis, we the Five Zuoling Heroes must have a place in this big piece of cake!”
“Hmm, the Valley Master Cao from the Weapon Refining Workshop sent a ssage saying that he has managed to invite two recluses who have been in seclusion for years, calling us to bolster the ranks, promising that if we succeed this ti, he’ll give us a piece of Eastern City.
If he dares to go back on his word, I’ll cut him down.” A rugged voice responded.
“…”
As the talk progressed, closer to the cliff, five figures leading the way on horseback started to erge.
Following them were a group of n dressed in various rough clothes, of different builds, each wielding a variety of weapons – the “eighteen types” of arsenal.
There were roughly three to four hundred n and horses!
All with slanted eyebrows and looks, none of them seed like good folks!
The two in front, one with copper bell eyes and a sowhat fierce and intimidating appearance, spit flying as he spoke and a huge copper ringed broadsword carried on his shoulder.
The nine copper rings clanged against the blade as it moved, making a crisp sound.
He possessed the Profound Body Great Success cultivation!
The other one was lean and gaunt, with a rat-like face and narrow eyes that glead with excitent.
From the conversation, it sounded like these n were off to snatch a share of the spoils at Tianxiong Pass and to provide support.
