Xuan Qin really attacked the city at night.
This is how the world works. There are dozens of peanuts in a bowl, and everyone knows that dozens of them are good and only one is bad, but people always accurately pick up the bad one and put it in their mouths.
The people of Northern Chu hoped that the Xuan Qin army would rest before attacking the city, hoped that it would snow soon, and hoped that the Xuan Qin army would withdraw soon. The only thing they didn't want was that the Xuan Qin army would attack the city at night...
But Xuan Qin came at night, and they launched an attack on the city at four or five in the morning.
The world is like this, always slamming people into the ground when they think they have reached the bottom and things can't get any worse. In fact, things can get even worse.
Xuan Qin not only attacked the city at night, but also mobilized all his forces. There were more than a dozen monks flying in the sky and countless soldiers on the ground, densely packed and extending into the infinite darkness, as if they were endless demons created by the darkness that could not be killed or slain.
Li Shiwen had been guarding the city wall from the beginning, repelling wave after wave of attacks from Xuan Qin, killing one Xuan Qin soldier after another. The steel spear in his hand was covered in blood and was too slippery to hold; he had already changed his swords one after another.
He was incredibly fierce, with the courage that Xiang Yu and Lu Bu could not stop. If this happened in the ordinary world, regardless of whether he won or lost this war, he would be a hero that would go down in history.
It's a pity that this world is full of immortals...
When he was exhausted from killing and looked down at the city, he found that there were Xuan Qin soldiers swarming like ants under the city, and he couldn't help suffocating; and at this moment, a flying sword suddenly flew out from the darkness and went straight to his heart.
His bravery had actually been noticed by the Xuan Qin cultivators. Those cultivators had not taken action because, firstly, they wanted to know how strong he was and what the limit of a mortal was; secondly, when Li Shiwen was victorious, they might not be able to kill him easily. In order to save face, it was better to wait and see.
At this time, he was tired and exposed his flaws. The flying sword in the dark came as expected like a mosquito smelling rotten meat.
When the sword came, Li Shiwen had no time to react and was about to die on the spot!
Who would have thought...
"bite!"
The sword failed to penetrate Li Shiwen's body. Li Shiwen's body emitted purple sword light. He counterattacked with a sword and chopped the flying sword away!
"What!?" the monk in the darkness exclaimed, "Another body-protecting sword energy?"
"Didn't the baby who escaped during the day also have this kind of sword energy?" A cultivator not far away said, "It seems that the Li family really has a powerful sword cultivator."
"My flying sword is damaged." The cultivator said, "What sect is this from? How could it be so powerful..."
Before they finished talking, Li Shiwen's eyes suddenly lit up and he shouted, "I found you!"
He raised the gun in his hand and shot!
"You really have some skills!" The monk laughed. He could identify the location by sound, increase strength, and increase accuracy. Could a mortal also do this?
He raised his hand and a ray of light appeared, sweeping the steel spear away.
"But I still overestimate my own abilities..." He shook his head.
But then...
Li Shiwen on the tower suddenly shouted again: "Take my sword!"
He jumped up from the city wall, raised his hands above his head, clenched his fists in the air, and slashed down at the Xuan Qin monk.
As he made the chopping motion, a purple-black sword energy condensed in his clenched hand. The purple sword energy came out of his hand and reached an unknown place in the sky. In the dark sky, stars suddenly lit up.
Li Shiwen slashed down with a sword!
"What?!" Monk Xuan Qin was horrified. He quickly pushed his hands forward and summoned a protective spell to block the way in front of him.
But the sword energy was too sharp, and the protective magic he hastily summoned was cut in half by the sword. Then, before he could react, he was directly cut in half by the purple sword energy!
The spear is a feint, the sword is a real move. Show the enemy your weakness, and kill him with one strike!
This is what is called, a mortal killing an immortal...
Li Shiwen fell from the air and fell into the endless darkness below.
His armor was torn and he was covered in blood, some from the enemies and some from his own, but he felt no pain and no fear.
He thought of his father, mother, wife, son, and sister, and felt endless reluctance and guilt. He felt sorry for them. As a son, he failed his parents' expectations. As a husband, he did not fulfill his duties. As a father, he could not accompany his children to grow up, and he was not a good brother...
He thought of the soldiers who died in Hengduan Mountains...
What a failure he has been in his life!
But fortunately, he is finally going to die.
He closed his eyes and waited for the moment of landing.
But for a long, long time, he didn't feel the touch of the ground...
"Is the wall so high?" He felt relieved when he thought he was going to die. "It wasn't this high when Xuan Qin attacked the city."
But then, he felt that not only was he not falling, but he was floating up into the air.
He was just wondering and about to open his eyes when he heard a familiar voice: "Are you enjoying it?"
Li Shiyin's voice!
"Shiyin?" He opened his eyes and found himself being held horizontally by Li Shiyin (like a princess), and was flying quickly towards the city wall. "Why are you here?"
Li Shiyin didn't answer, she just smiled and said, "I've discovered that you have a vulnerable side, and I got the evidence today!"
Li Shiwen was covered in armor, and he looked several times taller. Li Shiyin was holding him, and their size ratio was even larger, which made him look even weirder.
But Li Shiwen didn't care about that at the moment. He said anxiously, "Who asked you to come? Go away now!"
At this time, Li Shiyin had already carried him to the city wall. She threw him to the ground roughly, kicked him, and asked, "You hid it from me last year, right?! You knew there was going to be a war last year, right?"
Li Shiwen got up from the ground, looked directly at Li Shiyin, and said sternly: "What if I don't hide it from you? Are you going to stay here and die too?
"We can die for our country, but the bloodline of the Li family cannot be cut off, and you can live forever."
"Why is it sending yourself to die?" Li Shiyin was puzzled. She looked at Li Shiwen, "I find that you always treat me like a child. You are all like this. Why do you hide this kind of thing from me?"
"You are very powerful, I know. But..." Li Shiwen raised his head and looked at the darkness in the sky. In the darkness, fifteen cultivators slowly appeared. There were originally sixteen cultivators, but Li Shiwen killed one. "Two fists cannot beat four hands. They have the support of the sect, and there are many cultivators."
"Are you the cultivator from the Li family?" a Xuan Qin cultivator asked coldly, "Did you leave those sword energies behind?"
Li Shiyin turned around and looked at the monks. She turned her back to Li Shiwen, shook her head and asked, "Is it these scumbags who scared you like that?"
"Rotten fish and shrimp?" Before Li Shiwen could say anything, Xuan Qin cultivator was furious, "How dare a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator be so arrogant?"
Li Shiyin looked back at Li Shiwen's face, which showed his uncontrollable fear of the Jindan cultivator. She took out the Qingxing Sword and said, "Little Jindan cultivator, I will kill you for you to see."
