With Wu Dingguo’s death, the three hundred thousand Huben Iron Cavalry under his command were also completely annihilated.
The Wang Chao led the army, pursuing Wuo Wenlong’s defeated troops all the way to Green Mountain County, plowing through and completely annihilating the last stronghold of the Wu Family.
The news of the Wu Family’s complete downfall quickly spread to the Daxi and the Great Zhou Alliance forces.
The commanders of both Daxi and the Great Zhou were greatly alard.
They never expected that Wuo Wenlong and Wu Dingguo would be defeated so quickly.
It was a re two days, and the entire army was wiped out.
At this mont, both Daxi and the Great Zhou felt like they were on a tiger’s back, unable to dismount.
If they retreated now, it would an that their grand mobilization was all for nothing, which was hard to accept.
But if they proceeded with their original plan, the destruction of the Great Wu Dynasty had already disrupted their previous strategies.
While they were in this dilemma, a piece of news arrived.
The Wang Chao, leading a grand army of two hundred thousand troops, including forr subordinates and surrendered soldiers of the Great Wu Dynasty, was advancing in full force.
Hearing this news, both Daxi’s commander Daa Wendong and the Great Zhou’s commander Zhou Ding were greatly shocked.
They never imagined that this nascent Hann Dynasty would dare to attack them when their foundations were yet unstable.
Initially, they were hesitating whether to retreat or advance.
Now, with the Hann Dynasty’s direct advance, retreating would an admitting defeat.
Clearly, neither Daa Wendong nor Zhou Ding could accept such a result.
The two decided to continue their alliance and jointly resist the Hann Dynasty.
The battlefield they chose was the buffer zone at the borders of the three kingdoms, known as the Black Triangle.
After a fierce battle, both sides suffered heavy casualties, leading to a stalemate and a confrontation.
...
In the black forest, there were two figures, a man and a woman.
The man had sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, reminiscent of a relegated immortal reborn.
The woman had a peerless appearance, like an orchid blooming at the edge of a cliff.
These two were none other than Li Chen and Xie Wanwan.
They were here intending to traverse the black forest and flank the Great Zhou and Daxi Alliance from behind, preparing to deliver a fatal blow.
Xie Wanwan had spent so ti here before, making her very familiar with the terrain.
She pointed forward with her alabaster-like delicate hand and said, "Crossing this forest allows us to circumvent directly. However, it is said that the black forest harbors very powerful demon beasts. Ordinary cultivators entering risk certain death."
Hearing Xie Wanwan’s words, Li Chen smiled slightly and said, "Don’t worry, if there’s danger, I’ll protect you!"
Upon Li Chen’s words, Xie Wanwan’s nose couldn’t help but feel sour.
Previously, in the black forest, there were several instances where she barely escaped with her life.
During those tis, she longed for soone to protect her, to offer a shoulder to lean on.
Seeing Xie Wanwan remain silent for a long ti, Li Chen raised an eyebrow and asked, "What, don’t you trust my abilities?"
Xie Wanwan secretly wiped her tears and feigned annoyance, "Hmph, who needs your protection!"
Leaving this remark, she ignored Li Chen and strode forward.
Suddenly!
The distant black forest was swept by a fierce wind, as rolling black mists surged into the sky.
Witnessing this scene, Li Chen’s gaze beca focused.
"Sothing’s wrong!"
Before his words could land, a soul-piercing roar echoed from the depths of the black forest.
Monts later, a Python Dragon, several hundred zhang long with black scale armor, appeared, toppling trees as it ca.
Upon seeing this black Python Dragon, Xie Wanwan let out a startled cry.
"This is the Eighth-grade Demon Beast, the Black Corner Blood Python!"
Seeing that Xie Wanwan recognized the demon beast at a glance, Li Chen asked with a hint of curiosity, "You’ve fought it before?"
Xie Wanwan nodded, replying, "Yes, once. The Black Corner Blood Python’s defense is incredibly strong, I couldn’t break through. But its speed is its weakness and couldn’t catch . That’s how I managed to escape!"
Hearing Xie Wanwan’s words, Li Chen’s star-like, deep and bright pupils contracted sharply.
A flash of cold murderous intent appeared within!
The Black Corner Blood Python seed to recognize Xie Wanwan too, saying, "Damn humans, you escaped last ti. I didn’t expect you to return. It’s just as well, it’s been a long ti since I’ve tasted human flesh. This ti, I’ll feast on your bodies!"
Hearing the Black Corner Blood Python’s words, Li Chen’s eyes were filled with sharp intent.
"Heh, wanting to eat us, let’s see if your teeth are strong enough!"
The Black Corner Blood Python, with its blood-red beast eyes, took a careful look at Li Chen, shouting angrily, "Insignificant human, you’ll soon pay in blood for your arrogance!"
As it spoke, it flicked its scarlet tongue, preparing to attack.
Seeing this, Xie Wanwan wanted to draw her sword to fight.
But Li Chen stopped her.
"Wanwan, let handle this beast, you just watch from the side!"
Hearing Li Chen’s words, Xie Wanwan retracted her sword.
"Alright, be careful!"
Li Chen nodded, then stepped forward, shouting fiercely, "Say, how do you want to die?"
The Black Corner Blood Python, seeing a small human dare to provoke it so, beca furious, its red eyes glaring as it roared, "Insignificant human, don’t be arrogant, I’ll tear your flesh and grind your bones!"
The beast’s furious roar echoed through the forest, as the Black Corner Blood Python lunged forward, its mouth open wide, aiming straight for Li Chen.
Despite its colossal size, the Black Corner Blood Python moved with surprising speed.
In the blink of an eye, it had covered several thousand zhang, closing in on Li Chen.
As it bared its grim and terrifying fangs, ready to swallow Li Chen whole.
Li Chen reached into the air, grabbing the Mystic Iron Heavy Sword.
Holding the sword with both hands, he struck at the Black Corner Blood Python in the most straightforward and brutish manner.
"Clang!"
A sound like the clash of Copper Bells exploded in the air, with sparks flying in the wind.
The Black Corner Blood Python recoiled in pain, retreating repeatedly.
It never expected a small human, no bigger than one of its fingers, to possess such violent attack power, shaking its entire head into a buzzing daze.
If not for the Black Corner Blood Python’s unyielding skull, that sword might have split its head open right then and there...
