The guards quickly gathered a large number of soldiers.
"General, General..." The Xiliang soldiers and deputy generals who had gathered were anxious when they saw the Xiliang garrison general under Wang Han's hammer, but they dared not make any rash moves.
"It's really slow." Wang Han complained as he looked at the deputy general and Xiliang soldiers gathered outside the door. He turned around and casually smashed the Xiliang general away with a hammer before walking towards the Xiliang soldiers at the door.
"General..." The soldiers and deputy generals outside the door were furious as they watched the Xiliang garrison general being smashed more than ten meters away by Wang Han's hammer and die beyond any doubt.
"Kill..." a lieutenant shouted to the soldiers behind him. Fortunately, he didn't lose his mind and charged towards Wang Han himself.
"This is just suicide," Wang Han said, looking at the Xiliang soldiers charging towards him. He then charged forward as well, showing no mercy whatsoever.
"Bang bang bang bang..." One after another, the Xiliang soldiers who charged forward were smashed away by Wang Han. No one could stop Wang Han even a step.
"Charge! Charge! Those who retreat will be executed... Whoever kills him will be rewarded with a hundred gold pieces and granted the title of a hundred households." Seeing Wang Han's fierceness, the soldiers who charged forward could not even stop him, let alone injure him. The deputy generals were shocked and ordered their soldiers to charge forward while retreating hastily.
"Can they retreat?" Wang Han looked at the retreating Xiliang soldiers' deputy generals, swung his hammer forward with force, smashing several Xiliang soldiers in front of him, causing them to knock down a group of people behind them, forcing the Xiliang soldiers' offensive to stop.
Wang Han tossed his hammer into the air, then with a hook and a kick, he kicked up the spears of the Xiliang soldiers on the ground and held them in his hand, throwing them one after another at several retreating Xiliang deputy generals.
"Pfft..." The spear slammed down, turning into a series of afterimages. It was so fast that the Xiliang soldiers' deputy generals couldn't even see it clearly. In the blink of an eye, it pierced through one Xiliang soldier's deputy general after another and pinned them to the wall in the distance.
As the Xiliang soldiers who had been knocked down got up and prepared to continue their attack, Wang Han caught the falling hammer and calmly said, "Your generals are all dead. Do you still want to die?"
The Xiliang soldiers were stunned for a moment, then turned around to see their generals lying on the ground one by one, each with a large, bloody hole in their chest.
"The generals are dead! The generals are all dead!" the Xiliang soldiers cried out in panic. No one dared to go forward anymore, and chaos ensued.
Seeing the Xiliang soldiers panic, Wang Han unleashed his powerful killing intent towards them, shouting, "Get out of Sishui Pass, all of you!"
"devil……."
"monster……"
Upon hearing Wang Han's murderous shout, the Xiliang soldiers felt as if a vast sea of blood was about to engulf them, and they were thrown into complete chaos. They screamed in terror, dropped their weapons and armor, and scrambled to escape for their lives.
Amidst the panic caused by the mass desertion of soldiers, the Xiliang troops at Sishui Pass also descended into chaos, fleeing continuously towards the outskirts of the city. The common people, upon hearing of the monsters, were terrified and shut their doors and windows tightly, hiding away.
Faced with such rumors and gossip, Wang Han could no longer control them, so he simply let them develop as they pleased, only supervising to prevent deserters from causing chaos among the people.
——————————
"Sishui Pass has fallen, and Yuan Shao's army has arrived. It's time to return to Luoyang." Half an hour later, all the Xiliang soldiers in the city fled. Wang Han stood on the deserted city wall, watching Yuan Shao's army approach Sishui Pass. He muttered to himself and used his speed hack to disappear from the city wall.
——————————
Not long after Wang Han left, Yuan Shao arrived outside Sishui Pass and saw the city wall that Wang Han had smashed down.
Yuan Shao ordered, "Go and investigate the situation inside Sishui Pass."
"Yes." A general accepted the order and led a cavalry unit into Sishui Pass.
The scouts entered Sishui Pass and found the streets deserted. The entire city was eerily quiet, the streets deserted, and belongings, armor, and weapons were scattered everywhere, as if telling the story of the chaos that had occurred at Sishui Pass earlier. It evoked images of people fleeing in panic. After quickly checking the area and asking the city's inhabitants, the scouts, having found the general, hurriedly rode back.
The scout rushed back to the allied forces and reported, "Reporting to the Alliance Leader, there are no Xiliang soldiers in the city, but the people say that a demon appeared in Sishui Pass. The demon destroyed the city walls and killed most of the Xiliang generals in the city. The Xiliang soldiers have all fled, and the people have all hidden in their homes, afraid to come out. As for what kind of demon it is, there are many different opinions. Some say it is taller than the city walls, some say it is covered in blood, has a blue face and fangs, and eats people without spitting out bones. But apart from those Xiliang soldiers who fled for their lives, no one has actually seen it."
"Enter the city," Yuan Shao ordered upon hearing the report.
"Is this really something a human could do?" Cao Cao stared blankly at the nearly ten-meter-long section of the city wall that had been smashed down. He had never imagined that a martial artist could possess such terrifying abilities. "Perhaps only legendary immortals could do this!"
"Perhaps," Xi Zhicai sighed, "Let's follow them into the city first." At that moment, Xi Zhicai couldn't help but think, 'My lord, are you truly an immortal? Or are you, as the people of the city say, an incarnation of a demon?'

Luoyang City
"My lord, you're back." Zhang Shan greeted Wang Han as soon as he returned to his residence.
Upon seeing Zhang Shan approaching, Wang Han instructed, "Zhang Shan, go to Wang Yun's residence immediately and tell him that I have returned."
"Yes, my lord," Zhang Shan replied and immediately ran out of the mansion.
…………
That night, just after Wang Han finished his meal, Wang Yun, along with Diao Chan and several court officials, hurriedly arrived at Wang Han's residence.
"Mr. Wang Han, your great kindness and virtue... I..." Upon seeing Wang Han, Wang Yun burst into tears and nearly knelt on the ground. He had already heard about the events at Hulao Pass. Wang Han had single-handedly breached the pass. Although he knew Wang Han had done this intentionally to hasten the allied forces' advance, the allied forces wouldn't be able to arrive in time. Now that Wang Han had returned, it meant Dong Zhuo's death was imminent. Before the allied forces could breach Sishui Pass and arrive, Dong Zhuo would surely die first. They, the old court officials, still had a chance to stop the allied forces from entering the city. If they could also win over Wang Han to intimidate the various warlords, the court would be safe. Unfortunately, he didn't know that Wang Han had already breached Sishui Pass.
"Minister Wang, please rise quickly." Seeing that Wang Yun was about to kneel, Wang Han quickly helped him up. "Since I have already agreed to this matter, I will naturally not go back on my word. I wonder if Minister Wang is prepared?"
"Everything is ready. We are just waiting for Mr. Wang Han to kill Dong Zhuo and drive out the Xiliang troops," Wang Yun said quickly upon hearing this.
"How about tomorrow?" Wang Han asked.
“Okay, let’s do it tomorrow.” Wang Yun nodded quickly, the sooner Wang Han took action, the better.
“In that case, I will kill Dong Zhuo tomorrow.” Wang Han nodded.
