Chapter 2062: Chapter 2063: Hong Luan! (Second Update)

Everyone, march through the night. We have to reach Weiwu City in the shortest time possible!

Because troops from another dynasty are currently attacking Weiwu City and a bloody battle has already broken out, the situation in Weiwu City right now is extremely dangerous.

As the daughter of the Mighty Great General of Weiwu, how could she possibly still sleep? She immediately led the army and rushed toward Weiwu City through the night.

Is the father of this tight‑clad female General in danger?

Right now they had to race against time to hurry back, otherwise, if Weiwu City fell, the Mighty Great General might very well lose his life.

The other side would definitely slaughter and seize the city.

The entire army, because of the female General, all straightened their backs and pushed themselves onward at speed.

Fortunately, Weiwu City wasn’t too far away, just over sixty li. At this moment, they advanced at full speed.

The soldiers riding horses at the front were the fastest, the soldiers behind could only run to keep up, and Ye Qiu was among them.

After spending about five hours, they finally reached the vicinity of Weiwu City.

Shouts of killing shook the heavens, a thick stench of blood drifted from ahead, and seeing many soldiers of the Giant Elephant Dynasty dead and lying on the ground, the female General immediately launched an attack on the enemy siege troops before her.

Kill!

On the spot, the unit that hadn’t even had time to rest for a moment joined the battle, clashing with the forces of the other dynasty.

The veteran reminded Ye Qiu, "Don’t just stand there in a daze, get in there. If these Wild Deer Dynasty troops break the city, every one of us is dead."

With that, the veteran charged out, hacking his way into the battlefield with great ferocity.

Blades flashed and swords clashed, blood splattered everywhere. This kind of large‑scale slaughter, Ye Qiu had only ever seen on TV, and those were all just acting, but the scene before his eyes now was real.

Everyone around him rushed out. Ye Qiu was still a little dazed, but very quickly, he made his move—because someone had attacked him.

Swish.

A broadsword chopped toward Ye Qiu’s neck, clearly intending to end him with a single stroke.

The attacker was a young soldier. Seeing Ye Qiu standing there motionless, he thought Ye Qiu had been scared stupid, so he wanted to pick up an easy kill. Slaying a soldier of the Giant Elephant Dynasty would earn him military merit.

"Die."

The blade gleamed coldly. One slash would definitely separate head from body.

Yet the one he faced was Ye Qiu, a cultivator on the verge of breaking through to the Returning Ruins Realm.

Ye Qiu simply reached out a hand and grabbed the blade. The opponent froze, because he realized his sword could no longer come down. It was held in Ye Qiu’s grip, and not even a drop of blood had appeared.

This soldier of the Wild Deer Dynasty saw this and knew something was wrong—he was no match for Ye Qiu. He twisted, trying to yank the blade back, failed to pull it free, then turned to run.

Ye Qiu followed the momentum, seized the broadsword into his own hand, and slashed it back toward that soldier.

Puff!

The soldier let out an "ah" and fell to the ground, dead on the spot.

After killing one soldier, Ye Qiu lifted his head and looked toward the sky. That feeling of being watched did not appear. He showed a faint smile.

The Heavenly Heart Seal really is immensely useful!

Clearly, he no longer had to care about the Heavenly Dao of this place and could kill anyone he wanted.

With a soldier of the Wild Deer Dynasty dead, the surrounding soldiers saw Ye Qiu holding a blade and immediately rushed at him.

Ye Qiu swept the broadsword in a single arc, instantly killing five soldiers. They couldn’t withstand even one blow from him.

Seeing Ye Qiu so ferocious, more and more soldiers of the Wild Deer Dynasty charged in. The broadsword in Ye Qiu’s hand kept whirling up and chopping down, and each swing took several lives.

After killing more than twenty natives in a row, the Heavenly Dao of this planet did not react in the slightest, and Ye Qiu was completely at ease.

He swept his gaze forward and saw the veteran who’d become familiar with him earlier. The man was already wounded, his body stained with blood, fighting three men alone.

Very soon, the veteran began to falter. Because of his ferocity, he had drawn even more enemy soldiers, greatly increasing the pressure on him.

The veteran took several cuts, but he didn’t fall right away; he still had some fight left in him.

"All together, kill this troublesome one first."

Swish, swish, swish.

The veteran was about to be unable to hold on. The weapon in his hand was suddenly knocked flying, and he staggered back four or five steps. Watching several soldiers charge at him, the veteran revealed a wry smile. So he was finally going to die on the battlefield after all.

"Come on then. Even if I die, I’ll drag one of you down with me." The veteran no longer cared, ready to burn his life to take one with him.

Just as the veteran was about to go all out, a hand landed on his shoulder. Thinking it was an enemy, the veteran struggled hard to shake it off, yet he couldn’t break free.

He then heard Ye Qiu’s voice: "Leave these guys to me."

As he spoke, Ye Qiu raised the broadsword in his hand and, facing the charging soldiers of the Wild Deer Dynasty, chopped down then swept across, drawing a cross.

Two arcs of blade‑qi instantly formed a Cross Slash, blasting several people flying. They all spewed blood and died.

"This..."

The veteran behind him saw this scene and was so stunned he couldn’t speak. Ye Qiu had killed those soldiers so casually. What kind of strength was that?

The only one he’d seen this fierce was probably the Mighty Great General of Weiwu himself.

After dealing with these men, Ye Qiu turned back and smiled. "I told you I’d give you a hand on the battlefield."

The veteran chuckled. "I’m counting on you. Hope you can help more people."

Ye Qiu turned around and looked ahead. At the very front, there was a figure like a sharp blade, carving open a path straight toward the city walls. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

That figure was precisely the daughter of the Mighty Great General of Weiwu—Hong Luan!

Hong Luan’s cultivation was in the Divinity Transformation Realm. Ordinary soldiers couldn’t even get close to her. You could say that wherever she struck, the fight was one‑sided.

But as she drew closer and closer to the city and the number of men she killed increased, she drew the attention of experts from the Wild Deer Dynasty.

Soon, several figures appeared in front of Hong Luan, blocking her way.

"You’re that Hong Luan? The daughter of the Weiwu General. You’ve come at just the right time. As long as we capture you alive, your father will naturally open the city gates and let us in." The other side recognized Hong Luan.

After all, she was the Weiwu General’s daughter, and Hong Luan herself was not weak. The Wild Deer Dynasty had long gathered quite a bit of information on her.

Even Hong Luan’s sudden appearance had been anticipated by the Wild Deer Dynasty. They were not surprised in the least.

Hong Luan ignored them and continued her assault. The spear in her hand danced ceaselessly, like a silver serpent, darting about like lightning.

"You alone can’t change anything about this war. You and your father might as well accept your fate." The other side snorted coldly. Two shields instantly locked together, blocking the spear in front, then they closed in and gave Hong Luan a cold smile.

Hong Luan pulled back and thrust again, but their shields were too solid—she couldn’t pierce them. After several exchanges she achieved nothing, while consuming a great deal of energy.

"Your father can only cling to the gates and still can’t drive us off. Do you really think you alone can change the current situation?"

The enemy was clearly prepared. Hong Luan’s eyes stayed calm, but her heart gradually sank.

Because the other side was too confident.

Not far below the city, a young man stood surrounded by attendants. Looking toward Hong Luan, he showed a faint smile. "That Weiwu General actually sired a fine daughter. Her looks are not bad either. It would be a bit of a waste to kill her."

At once, a subordinate beside him said, "If Milord is interested, I’ll give the order immediately not to harm her in the slightest."

The young man shook his head. "No need. I’d rather see how long she can hold out."
