Invincible Immortal Cultivator in the City-Chapter 572 - 571: Saving People

Running frantically, fighting all the way.

Zhou Pudgy was almost at his limit, his body riddled with bloody holes. He was alright before, perhaps he couldn’t bear to part with Avril’s kiss and managed to retain some vitality.

Now, having left the Imperial Palace, he soon felt dizzy and nearly collapsed.

His wounds were too severe, and although the bleeding had been stopped and his Cultivation was high, if not treated, his life was still in jeopardy.

Lin Hao placed Zhou Pudgy into the Divine Cauldron, allowing Zhou Pudgy to treat himself with the medicinal herbs he took from the Gu Country Palace’s stores. Lin Hao didn’t believe there was nothing among those countless herbs and Elixirs that could heal Zhou Pudgy.

As for Avril, she had to stick with Lin Hao.

After all, outside the Imperial Palace there was still the Elf Clan’s bridal escort team.

The two moved swiftly, charging out, encountering little significant resistance within the Gu Country Imperial City.

Once out of the Imperial City, they saw that the Elf Clan camp outside was already ablaze with raging flames.

The Gu Emperor’s orders were swift. As soon as Lin Hao burst out of the Imperial Palace, the Gu Country Soldiers atop the city walls were already moving against the Elf Country Camp.

"What do we do? We must save them!" Avril’s pretty face turned deathly pale, eager to rush over for the rescue.

But Lin Hao frowned, glancing back towards the direction of the Gu Country Palace.

Just a moment ago, he had suddenly felt an overwhelming sense of danger emanating from the direction of the Gu Country Palace.

It was a vivid sensation as several powerful auras spread, almost instantly enveloping the entire Gu Country Imperial City.

What could it be?

Lin Hao was taken aback, at the same time, intimidated by those auras.

"We need to leave quickly."

Zhou Pudgy was in grave danger and no longer capable of fighting.

Though Lin Hao had taken a different path in his cultivation, and even with the Divine Cauldron in hand, he was not invincible in this world. Escaping from the hands of the Gu Emperor had been possible only with the power of a Divine Artifact, but if a few stronger adversaries appeared...

The consequences would be unimaginable.

They had to leave, and with all the resources plundered from the Gu Country Palace, it was imperative to return and produce ammunition. It was only with ammunition that they could act!

Lin Hao didn’t waste words and pulled Avril away to leave, but she struggled, her gaze still fixed on the direction of the Elf Camp, wanting to save her people.

Fighting was still raging in the camp, many Elf Clan guards had already died in battle, even more soldiers had been captured, and only a few were still resisting.

"Please, help me save them, they’re sure to die otherwise, please save them," pleaded Avril, who couldn’t break free from Lin Hao’s grasp, she implored him with tears in her voice.

At that moment, the intense danger from the Gu Country Palace grew stronger; Lin Hao felt it was no longer safe to stay. freewēbnoveℓ.com

But seeing Avril’s expression, Lin Hao’s heart softened. Besides, to forge an alliance with the Elf Clan, rescuing just a Princess was not enough; there had to be survivors to take back the news.

Lin Hao glanced towards the camp and saw the Elf General still fighting fiercely, desperately resisting. With a thought, he turned and charged towards the camp.

"Enough, follow me!"

Their speed was incredibly fast, shooting towards the battlefield like lightning.

At that very moment, the City Defense Army had formed a Shield Formation, completely surrounding the Elf Camp. Trapped inside, the Elves were merely struggling in vain; their defeat was inevitable.

A Gu Country General and the Elf General were locked in a fierce battle within the Shield Formation, evenly matched. But the Elf General was already wounded and exhausted, if the fight continued, death would be certain.

"Surrender, kneel down, and I will spare your life." The Gu Country General sneered continuously, the broadsword in his hand creating whirlwinds and waves with every move, pressing forward step by step, pushing the Elf General to the edge of the Shield Formation.

On that Heavy Shield Formation, there were countless long spears, which if one were pricked by them, unless they were as resilient as a certain chubby fellow, few would be able to withstand.

The Elf General understood this well, yet he was not afraid, and even wore a slight smile on his face: "I’m not afraid of death, kill me if you have the guts!"

"Heh heh. Is that so?" The Gu Country General sneered with disdain, a glint of cold light in his eyes as he swung his broadsword towards the Elf General’s head, bellowing angrily: "Want to die? It’s easy! Today, I will grant your wish!"

As soon as those words fell, the sword light flickered.

That sword, carrying a chilling breath, hacked straight down towards the top of the Elf General’s head.

"Mighty! Mighty! Mighty!"

At the same time, the surrounding Gu Country Soldiers also erupted into cheers, rooting for their General.

But, just at that moment, a loud boom was heard, and one side of the Heavy Shield Formation was suddenly blasted open.

"Boom!!"

A sound akin to striking a bell resonated, and the right side of the Shield Formation was instantly shattered from behind, creating a large gap. Soldiers and Heavy Shields were flung into the air, many soldiers dying before they could even let out a scream.

The Gu Country General was shocked, turning around abruptly, only to see a young man with the Elf Princess already standing before him.

"Who are you!" Almost instinctively, the Gu Country General asked.

After all, this was the Gu Country Imperial City, and there had never been anyone who dared to oppose Gu Country here in a thousand years, so the Gu Country General couldn’t help but ask.

"The one who’s come for your life."

Lin Hao sneered without pause, landing and slamming the Divine Cauldron down onto the Gu Country General’s head.

This Gu Country General had no idea of the power of the Divine Cauldron, and felt provoked by Lin Hao’s contempt, so he swung his broadsword not at the Elf General, but backhandedly towards Lin Hao’s head.

"Clang!!"

When the sword clashed with the cauldron, there was no doubt about the outcome; how could the broadsword stand against the Divine Cauldron? A flash of light appeared on the Divine Cauldron, Runes surged, and then, upon contact, the broadsword turned into dust as if it was made of tofu!

"This can’t be possible!"

The Gu Country General was stupefied, but before his thought could fully form, Lin Hao, holding the Divine Cauldron, followed through with an unstoppable blow.

The sword shattered, the hand severed, and the head gone!

With just one smash, a single motion, one move, the previously unchallengeable Gu Country General’s head was flattened by the Divine Cauldron, and he fell straight down, dead!

In an instant, the entire camp seemed to quiet down.

The Gu Country Soldiers couldn’t react in time, standing there dumbstruck.

Their General had died, instantly killed!

Even the Elf General was taken aback, standing there woodenly with a stunned expression, unable to believe this was true.

He recognized Lin Hao, but had not expected him to be so powerful!

The Gu Country General had been strong, and the Elf General had felt he was at death’s door, but in the blink of an eye, it was the Gu Country General who lay dead.

Lin Hao kicked away the corpse of the Gu Country General, turned his head to see the Elf General in a daze as if lost in a reverie, sensing the increasing danger from the direction of the Gu Country Palace, and flew into a rage. He slapped the Elf General on the face and bellowed:

"What are you blanking out for? You don’t want to live anymore? Run for your life!"
