Huangfu Tong, the garrison commander of Yadan Town, is a staunch defender of the Huangfu family's imperial power.
They made preparations in advance in the face of Li Ting's army pressing in.
The poor ordinary soldiers had no idea what they were about to face.
Li Ting threw bombs into the city, but the city gates opened.
It was the ordinary people who stepped forward.
The people cried out and begged Li Ting to spare them.
In order to survive, they were willing to be slaves or servants.
Li Ting was still searching for a weakness in this group, but as soon as they left the city gate, they rushed towards Li Ting's army.
Li Ting cautiously issued the order to retreat.
Fan Zuan saw through the scheme.
He whispered a few words in Li Ting's ear.
Li Ting ordered the infantry to set up their shields, forming a protective shield.
He then ordered the archers to fire several fire arrows into the crowd.
As a result, a group of people exploded on the spot.
The scene caused many soldiers in Zakmu's incorporated troops to faint.
I have never seen anything so horrific.
The ground was covered with charred flesh.
If this group were allowed to get close to Li Ting's army, one can imagine the even more disastrous consequences.
Huangfu Tong's methods are too vicious!
They can even come up with a method like a human bomb.
After Huangfu Tong saw the first wave of human bombs being discovered and detonated by Li Ting from the city wall, he returned to his tent and cursed loudly.
It's alright, he still has a backup plan.
This battle was particularly difficult for Li Ting. He wanted to minimize his own casualties.
But Huangfu Tong's side were all reckless, using human bomb tactics.
There was no other way but to capture the leader first.
But this Yadan City actually has a Five Elements and Eight Trigrams Formation.
Li Ting could easily solve any magic formations on the battlefield, but he only had a superficial understanding of the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams Formation.
At that moment, cheers erupted outside the military camp.
Li Ting and Fan Zuan stepped out of the tent and discovered that Xu Ningyou had brought Li Xingran to Yadan.
"Madam!" Li Ting was overjoyed.
Xu Ningyou returned to Nanchen Kingdom when Li Ting conquered Wulan Town.
After all, he couldn't rest easy about Li Xingran.
"Second sister, what brings you here, and with Xingran too?" Fan Zuan was overjoyed.
"Third Uncle, is it that you can't solve the Five Elements Eight Trigrams Formation?"
"Oh dear, you prophet predicted it!" Fan Zuan joked.
“Husband, Ruan Ruan said you definitely can’t break this formation, so we came straight here,” Xu Ningyou explained.
"You must be tired from the journey," Li Ting said gratefully, holding Xu Ningyou's hand.
"It wasn't hard at all. Daddy, it only took us a little while to get here from the capital!" Li Xingran was almost six years old at the time, but her voice was still that of a child.
"Could it be that you... you've advanced to a higher level?" Li Ting found it unbelievable.
"Husband, it wasn't us, only Ruan Ruan advanced." Xu Ningyou said with a hint of regret.
"Hehe, Daddy, Third Uncle, I've reached the Nascent Soul stage! I can fly now!"
Fan Zuan believes that between hard work and talent, talent is more important.
However, Li Xingran once said that she has a lucky physique, so there's nothing to envy about that.
"Wow, our Ruanruan is really amazing." Li Ting couldn't stop praising Li Xingran.
"Father, Mother and I will go and capture Huangfu Tong for you, and break this Five Elements Eight Trigrams Formation while we're at it."
"However, Father, you need to change your mindset. Now that you've both cultivated immortality, you can use low-level spells to break the Five Elements Eight Trigrams Formation."
"Then, shall Father and your third uncle give it a try?" Li Ting asked tentatively. If Li Xingran hadn't reminded him, he would have forgotten that he was now a Golden Core cultivator.
“Alright! Here, one spirit stone each.” Li Xingran took out two mid-grade spirit stones from her bosom, which gleamed with silver light.
Li Ting and Fan Zuan placed the spirit stones into the inner core of their dantian, and instantly felt their spiritual power increase.
"Ruanruan, just wait for your father's good news!" Li Ting said confidently as he disappeared into the light.
"Third Uncle, you need to be careful to keep your course, lest you fly off to another place," Li Xingran kindly reminded him.
"Thank you for reminding me, Xingran. I will be careful."
Fan Zu'an also fled far away.
"Mother, who do you think is more likely to go astray, Father or Third Uncle?" Li Xingran and Xu Ningyou chatted jokingly in the room.
"I bet it's your father. He's used to using force and doesn't know how to use such light and airy magic."
Xu Ningyou understands Li Ting best.
Sure enough, after only the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Li Ting returned to the military camp.
His face was full of dejection.
"Husband, the formation broke so quickly?" Xu Ningyou suppressed a laugh.
"Father, what kind of person is Huangfu Tong? Did you kill him? Why didn't you bring him back?" Li Xingran added fuel to the fire.
"Stop talking. When I escaped from the house, I don't know how, I went the wrong way."
"We went to a casino in the Great Yue Kingdom, which was full of gamblers."
“I smashed up that casino, looted all the money, and came back.”
"As for the people in the casino, I drugged them and will send people to raze the casino to the ground in a bit."
"This harmful thing."
“Father, shall we go again? This time, Ruan Ruan will come with you!” Li Xingran suggested.
What Li Ting was thinking was how embarrassing it would be to be with his daughter.
It's better to just lose face in front of the lady.
“It’s too dangerous for a child like you to go out. Your mother and I will go. You wait for us here.”
"Alright! Then you and your mother go again and help your third uncle."
