Chapter 244: Who will win is still unknown
Helian Cong's dragon horse took the lead, the nine-tassel crown swaying in the strong wind, and ran towards the exit of the enclosure like crazy.
Helian Feng led a group of people and followed closely behind.
Before they even got close to the hunting platform, the sound of fighting was already coming like a wave—
The clang of metal clashing, the sharp sound of arrows breaking through the air, mixed with the dying screams of the wounded, weaved into a huge scarlet net under the scorching sun.
At this moment, the long sword of the Poison King Chu Jin and the mysterious Taiyin Golden Knife were entangled together. Every time they clashed, blue poisonous mist splashed.
Under the long whip attack of Princess Xuan Yue of Beicang, the Soul Killer moved like a ghost.
One thousand Northern Cang Wolf Guards were in a fierce battle with three thousand Imperial Guards of Apocalypse. Although Apocalypse was at a disadvantage in terms of numbers, the Northern Cang Wolf Guards were extremely ferocious and could fight one against three without losing the upper hand. For a while, the battle was fiercely fought.
There were many corpses lying on the ground, and blood was flowing through the cracks in the bluestone slabs, forming a river.
Queen Su Qinyao and a group of court officials were protected in the northwest corner of the hunting platform. There, a group of guards with drawn bows and arrows were guarding them closely, so everything was safe and sound.
Su Qinyao stared at the battlefield and the crowd fighting, but she didn't feel the slightest bit of fear.
Right now, she was hoping that Yan Feng's men could secretly eliminate Xiao Nanyan in the Weichang forest.
Even if his troops arrived, their commander was already dead, and the group was leaderless and in disarray.
These barbarians like Guang Beicang are nothing to be feared at all.
It was not until Helian Cong's bright yellow cloak came into view that she slightly gathered her skirt and put on a look of terrified expression.
"stop!"
Helian Cong reined in his mad dragon horse and swung his bow hard onto the bronze tripod beside him, causing thirty-six chimes to ring in unison.
Chu Jin and Xuan Lie's weapons stopped just three inches away from each other's throats, and Shi Hun and Xuan Yue also withdrew their hands at the same time.
When the soldiers from both camps saw their commander stop, they also stopped and retreated to their respective camps.
Helian Cong sat upright on his horse. Although his crown was stained with blood and dust, it could not conceal the imperial majesty.
He looked down at Xuan Lie with a hawk-like gaze, his voice filled with anger:
"Emperor Bei Cang, you are so bold! How dare you trespass into the Tianqi territory and assassinate the king! Are you really in cahoots with Xiao Nanyan for your actions today?"
Xuan Lie swung the Taiyin Golden Blade and looked up at Helian Cong, his amber eyes burning with blazing fire:
"Helian Cong, you, Tianqi, are going too far! The grasslands are the foundation of our Northern Cang Wolf Clan, yet you keep encroaching on our borders. As the Lord of Northern Cang, how can I, Xuan Lie, sit idly by and watch our land be lost and our people be humiliated?"
Helian Cong sneered:
"Xuan Lie, you're really turning the tables! The Sichuan Grassland has been part of Tianqi's territory since the founding of the Tianqi Dynasty. It was you, Beicang, who wanted to annex this fertile land and continuously expand your territory towards Tianqi, which caused the war between the two countries."
Xuan Lie suddenly pulled off the wolf-head totem scarf from around his neck, letting the mountain breeze blow his wild black hair. In his amber eyes, a murderous intent that was almost insane surged:
"Territory? Boundary? Helian Cong, you and I both know that grasslands and cities are never written in ink on parchment!"
He swung his sword and chopped off the flagpole beside him. Amidst the flying wood chips, the Taiyin Golden Blade pointed directly at Helian Cong:
"Let's not even talk about who's right and who's wrong, whose sword can drink blood, whose horse can flatten a city, who has the right to trample the land underfoot! What about the grasslands of northern Sichuan, or the red walls and golden tiles of Yandu City? This world belongs to the capable!"
"Stubborn!"
The sword in Helian Cong's hand flashed mysteriously:
"I have already dispatched a large army. Today, none of you traitors will be able to leave Yunqiu!"
Xuan Lie laughed out loud, and the golden knife in his hand drew a cold arc of light:
“It remains to be seen who will win!”
Helian Feng urged his horse forward, his face still gentle, but his eyes were more fierce:
"Father, why waste time arguing with him! Today is a godsend opportunity. Kill the Xuan Lie siblings and the Northern Cang dragons will be leaderless. It will only take a moment to destroy them!"
"Okay!" Helian Cong finally couldn't bear it anymore:
"Feng'er, I'll leave them to you to deal with!"
"yes!"
Helian Feng took the order and quickly took out the silver bow from his waist. He pointed the arrow directly at Xuan Lie's heart. The bowstring vibrated and murderous intent filled the air.
The arrow left his hand, making a sharp sound as it broke through the wind, and went straight to Xuan Lie's throat.
Before Xuan Lie could draw his sword to block, the sound of breaking air arose again!
But then an ink-black feather arrow hit the tail feathers of the silver arrow accurately like a meteor chasing the moon.
Sparks flew and two arrows fell to the ground at the same time!
Before anyone could react, the thunderous sound of horse hooves came from behind them.
Amidst the swirling smoke and dust, a black horse treading on the snow came galloping like black lightning. The man on the horse was wearing black clothes fluttering in the wind, and the jade pendant with python pattern on his waist made a clear sound as it bumped against the ground.
When the man reined in his horse, his eyes were filled with a coldness like frost and snow. His dark pupils slowly scanned the people present, and finally, they landed on Helian Feng:
"The Emperor of Apocalypse has always been gentle as jade, but today he is full of hostility."
The person who came was the Regent of Tianqi, Xiao Nanyan!
