Long Xuanji dispatched an elite force of ten thousand this ti.
Adding the local troops from major cities around Sanhe City, they could basically gather more than twenty thousand people.
This number of Dragon Clan troops attacking an equally numbered City Guard Army would have a hundred percent chance of a successful capture.
Long Xuanji also considered this aspect, so this ti, she chose to take a few extra days to rest, determined to remove the thorn that was Qin Tian.
The leader of the ten thousand elite troops is nad Ke Ning, a fierce general who has followed Long Xuanji for many years.
Although his cultivation is at the peak of the Nascent Soul Stage, his combat power is formidable, and he also has rich experience in blitz and surprise attacks.
Long Xuanji wanted him to swiftly eliminate Qin Tian and then turn back to capture Yang City.
"General, we're a hundred kiloters away from Sanhe City," the vanguard ca to report to Ke Ning.
Riding on a flying horse, Ke Ning glanced at the sky and said, "Dawn is approaching; our marching speed is fast enough. Pass down the order to continue speeding up. We must attack swiftly and catch them off guard, letting the people of Sanhe City react too late. We'll reach the city gates by this morning!"
The troop of ten thousand moved silently and swiftly through the night.
They passed through the woods and faced a stretch of dunes ahead.
If they crossed the dunes, they would enter the jurisdiction of Sanhe City.
At that point, their flying beast unit would take to the skies and attack Sanhe City!
The sky lightened with dawn, and a cool wind blew across the land.
Positioned in the middle of the troops, Ke Ning rode his mount atop the dunes, feeling his eyelids twitch.
Generally, twitching eyelids are a bad on, and he frowned instantly.
"What's going on?"
As they moved deeper into the dunes, Ke Ning felt increasingly uneasy, sensing a mysterious danger was approaching.
But this was only his intuition; he couldn't pinpoint any specific danger.
"What day is today?" Ke Ning asked the deputy general.
"February second," replied the deputy general.
Ke Ning was stunned and a strange gleam appeared in his eyes as he murmured:
"February second, the dragon raises its head!"
His words made the deputy general beside him freeze instantly!
Whoosh whoosh!
At the mont the deputy general turned to look at Ke Ning, suddenly, a fierce wind rose atop the dunes!
Fierce winds carrying yellow sand suddenly surged from beneath Ke Ning's feet!
"Not good! There's soone! There are assassins!"
As a strong murderous intent spread from within the dunes with the wind, Ke Ning's expression drastically changed, and True Qi surged upon him!
BOOM!
A figure suddenly sprang from beneath the sand right at Ke Ning's mount!
At the sa ti, accompanying that figure was a golden True Qi Dragon!
The giant dragon, carrying a powerful True Qi shockwave, also burst forth from the sand!
The wind swept, sand filled the air!
The dragon soared, changing the color of the sky and earth!
When Ke Ning and his subordinates saw the dragon erge from the ground, they were all stunned!
"February second, the dragon raises its head!"
Ke Ning and the deputy general exclaid in horror!
Awoooo!
The dragon let out a roaring draconic sound!
"Protect the general!"
"Assassins! Protect the general!"
Under the command of the deputy general, the main force stopped, and Ke Ning's hundreds of personal soldiers quickly closed in around him!
Ke Ning too wielded his long sword, with a silver True Qi Shield already enveloping his entire body!
Awoooo!
The golden dragon, under the command of the masked shadow in the sky, directly charged at Ke Ning's position!
The massive True Qi shockwave sent Ke Ning's personal soldiers flying one by one!
n and horses toppled!
The earth shook!
Ke Ning's True Qi Shield was directly shattered!
Buzz buzz!
Ke Ning maneuvered his True Qi, dodging rapidly. Sweat poured down his forehead as he realized the intruder was dangerous, and the floating black shadow could control such a massive True Qi Dragon, indicating cultivation beyond the Tribulation Crossing stage!
One man, one dragon, attempting to kill him, the commander of three armies!?
"Stop him! Kill that person for !"
Ke Ning ordered his personal soldiers, while simultaneously, faced with another attack from the golden dragon, Ke Ning was forced onto a dead end!
His True Qi was scattered by the golden dragon, rendering him completely defenseless!
BOOM!
Ke Ning fought desperately, gathering all his True Qi into his fists, directly confronting the incoming golden dragon!
"Puff!"
At the mont the True Qi collided, Ke Ning spat out a mouthful of blood!
His entire body was sent flying several hundred ters away!
BOOM!
anwhile, Dragon Clan soldiers rushing at the shadow were thwarted, and the golden dragon turned its head and charged at them, causing chaos and casualties!
"General!"
"General!"
Several deputy generals hurried to Ke Ning, who had fallen far away, but upon reaching him, they found Ke Ning's eyes wide open, blood dripping from his mouth, and he was already dead!
"Capture him!"
"Kill him!"
The ten-thousand-strong unit surrounded the area, while the shadow continuously leapt through the air, heading toward the woods behind.
The golden dragon in the air vanished in a mont as its True Qi dissipated!
The Dragon Clan army now changed direction, swiftly pursuing the shadow...
At this ti, dawn had just broken.
...
Thump thump thump!
Thump thump thump!
At sunrise, when the eastern sun just peeked out, Xiao Zhuang had already rushed to Qin Tian's bedroom door, knocking anxiously.
"Boss! Boss! Are you awake?"
"Boss, open the door quickly, it's urgent... My goodness, at such a crucial ti you're still sleeping in, I really admire you."
Xiao Zhuang was very anxious.
Qin Tian groggily got up, opened the door, and said, "What's going on, Third Brother, why are you so anxious, what happened?"
"The troops have withdrawn!"
Xiao Zhuang handed the scout's report to Qin Tian, his face filled with joy, "The Dragon Clan has withdrawn their troops! Hahaha, not only did Long Xuanji's dispatched troops withdraw, but even the troops from other cities that were moving to gather and attack us simultaneously retreated! Hahaha, it's simply incredible!"
"They were going to besiege us, but they retreated!"
Xiao Zhuang excitedly stared at Qin Tian, "Boss, I just received multiple scout reports, guess the reason for the Dragon Clan's withdrawal? You'll never guess!"
"Oh, what is the reason?" Qin Tian asked.
Xiao Zhuang handed the scout's report to Qin Tian, narrating vividly, "Just this early morning, three or four hours ago, the leader of that mysterious Dragon Clan unit, Ke Ning, was assassinated on the march!"
"Oh? Really?"
"Indeed, according to the scout's report, by dawn, the Dragon Clan army had already reached the vicinity of Yunchuan Dunes, when suddenly, a supre expert erged from beneath the dunes like a whirlwind, easily killing Ke Ning as if no one else was there! It's amazing!"
