Chapter 98: Unparalleled Under Heaven!

  Whoa! My mind is a bit dazed! Just now, in the instant of breakthrough, the mana inside my body automatically went crazy and rotated wildly. In that brief moment, the mana inside my body was actually consumed to nothingness!

  Although her magic was exhausted, there was a hint of excitement in Akane's crimson eyes, and she didn't seem to be worried about her depleted magic at all.

  To know that once the mana is exhausted, the wounds on the zombie's body caused by these ominous weapons are extremely slow to recover. At this time, Qiū Shuǐ is still surrounded by the army, without any mana to heal the wound. If the injury worsens today, there will be a complete danger of falling.

  Haha! The unbridled laughter echoed through the valley, and the eighteen vassal lords' faces turned pale as they gazed fearfully at the demon god standing upright in front of them.

  After a long sigh, the martial path was originally about gaining insight between life and death. The method of taking advantage could gain temporary benefits but not lifelong benefits. In this fleeting space of life and death, Qiū Shuǐ had already deeply experienced it, otherwise she wouldn't have taken the risk to break through in this extremely ominous place even after completing her mission.

  Finally! I've finally broken through!

  At this moment, his martial arts have truly reached the realm of a grandmaster!

  At this point, I am still too weak. Outsiders can't see the difference between myself before and after breaking through, but as long as I continue to strengthen myself slowly, it will become clear at that time.

  Hoo! At this time, Zhao Yun and other generals were panting heavily, their faces filled with shock as they stared at the general in front of them, who was covered in blood but still standing tall with his spear.

  At this time, Zhao Yun and other top-notch martial artists had already discovered that the opponent was alone in blocking the road here, and actually only for breaking through the path of martial arts!

  Astonishment and admiration appeared in the eyes of Zhao Yun, Taishi Ci, Pang De, Xu Chu and other generals.

  Wiping the sweat from his forehead, Zhao Yun panted heavily with a look of incredulity in his eyes. He turned his head back to face the other generals, and his heart felt a pang of bitterness! The martial arts he had been striving for seemed insignificant in front of this person, it was simply a matter of life and death! To think that the opponent was a commander who led tens of thousands of troops! Yet he dared to make such a move, leaving no choice but for people all over the world to admire.

  Unparalleled in the world! Hehe, a bitter smile at the corner of his mouth, this praise is well-deserved!

  Although Zhao Yun and other military generals were full of admiration in their hearts, there were also a small number of people who had different thoughts in their minds.

  Hmph! The bravery of a lone man, no matter how strong his martial prowess is. I recall the year when Xiang Yu, the Overlord of Western Chu, was so mighty that he could uproot mountains and rivers with his sheer aura, yet he still ended up being besieged by hundreds of thousands of soldiers and took his own life at Wujiang River! At this moment, although Cao Cao admired the heroic spirit of the tiger on the road ahead, in his heart, he didn't think much of it.

  Admire the other's dedication to martial arts, but as a military leader, can't let emotions cloud judgment! At this time, Qiushui, who was originally a major concern in Cao Cao's heart, has slowly begun to change.

  But a small general behind Sun Jian's back was staring at the distant autumn water with fiery eyes, directly blocking the world's heroes and unmatched in majesty. This person is Sun Jian's son, the famous Little Overlord Sun Ce.

  Back and forth several times of charging, at this time it's not just the people who are tired, even the war horses' nostrils are panting with white air, making a hissing sound.

  At this time, several white horses detached from the formation and came before the princes on bended knee.

  "Report! My lord, generals, I just separately scouted the situation outside the valley. At this time, Dong Zhuo's army has disappeared without a trace, and the enemy's army is rushing towards Mengjin Port under the leadership of Lü Bu." Then other white horses reported what they had discovered one by one.

  The previous charge was not just to repel or kill Akizuki, which lord would believe that someone could single-handedly block a large army of tens of thousands, how could there be no conspiracy, especially for the lords who had been repeatedly ambushed by Akizuki.

  Cao Cao, Yuan Shao and other vassals discussed and decided that after Baima Yuanyi's first charge, hundreds of men quietly left the formation under Gongsun Zan's orders. They rode their horses to scout out the enemy situation in the surrounding mountains and valleys. After gathering information, they waited for Baima Yuanyi to charge again towards them, then silently rejoined the ranks, merging into the iron cavalry torrent.

  Just after these scouts reported back to the White Horse, several soldiers rushed back one after another from the rear of the army, all hastily running to the front of the princes and kneeling on one knee.

  "Report! Lord of the Alliance, it is possible to exit from the rear of the valley and scout out that there are no ambushes!"

  "Report! The top of the mountain valley is clear of any ambush!"

  "Report! No enemy tracks found outside the valley!"

  When the scout's report spread to the ears of the princes, the princes did not show any excitement on their faces because there was no ambush, and even the generals were the same. Everyone who heard the news had a low face.

  Especially the vassals, all with a gloomy and terrifying face, as if they could drip water.

  Clang! At this time, Yuan Shao's face was iron-green, and the palm of his hand grasping the treasure sword made a series of cracking sounds due to excessive force.

  "Detestable! The young one is so arrogant! Daring to play tricks on us, the hundreds of thousands of great army!" Yuan Shao's angry roar shook his whole body, and then his eyes wildly shouted: "Today will definitely behead the young one in this place!"

  "Hold on! Ben Chu." Cao Cao hastily pulled back Yuan Shao, who was about to issue orders. At this time, Yuan Shao's face was crazy, and when Cao Cao saw it, he hurriedly replied: "Ben Chu, now the army has no food or grass. If we drag on like this, once there is a change!" At this time, Cao Cao's face was solemn.

  Yuan Shao listened, although Cao Cao's words were reasonable, he still felt resentful in his heart. He was outmaneuvered by one person and had tens of thousands of troops on his side. If this got out, how would people all over the world view him and his men?

  Cao Cao saw Yuan Shao's expression and, as a childhood playmate, knew what he was thinking. He sneered inwardly, but still put on a good face and said: "Benchu, gentlemen, we should quickly return to Guandu now. If Dong Zhuo attacks Guandu, our army's rear will be cut off! Moreover, our army currently has no food or fodder!"

  Alas! Upon hearing Cao Cao's words, the various lords only then realized the gravity of the situation. Although killing Qiu Shui was everyone's desire, risking their own lives and having their retreat cut off was not worth it.

  Cao Cao added fuel to the fire with a cold smile, saying: "Everyone, I just received news that Lü Bu is leading his army to Mengjin Port and will soon cross the river. Once he crosses the river and enters Pingzhou territory, Lü Bu and the fierce tiger of Xiliang will both be the top warriors in the world. How can they bear to share the same name with others? Haven't you heard that one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers?"

  Hiss! At this time, the vassals heard Cao Cao's words and were shocked, then sneered in their hearts. Ah, can one mountain accommodate two tigers?

  If we kill the fierce tiger of Xiliang now, all the troops will be swallowed up by Lü Bu in Bingzhou. At that time, Lü Bu will dominate Bingzhou, with tens of thousands of elite soldiers under his command. Who else can stop him then?
