Everyone thought Yuwen Yingying wouldn't accept the challenge, let alone the duel, since she was always seen as a whiny, crybaby character. To everyone's surprise, Yuwen Yingying was surprisingly resolute for Li Zhu, willing to sacrifice herself to protect Li Zhu's reputation…
"Yingying, don't be impulsive. Fighting your uncle is suicide..."
Nazha pulled Yuwen Yingying aside and said!
"Death isn't scary. For Brother Zhuzhu, I'm willing to die..."
Yuwen Yingying gritted her teeth and resolutely remained silent!
Her words shocked everyone. They never expected that he was so deeply in love with Li Zhu that he was willing to risk his life for him…
"Yingying, Brother Zhu would never want you to go and die. Do you want Brother Zhu to live with guilt as soon as he wakes up?"
Naza held onto Yuwen Yingying tightly, trying to stop her!
"You're courting death. Since you're looking for it, I'll grant your wish. Maybe your good-for-nothing brother will be joining you soon, hahaha..."
As he spoke, Tuoba Dada burst into wild laughter…
"You're not allowed to humiliate Brother Zhuzhu like that..."
Yuwen Yingying rushed to Tuoba Dada's side and started punching and kicking him, but even though Tuoba Dada just stood there and let her hit him, Yuwen Yingying's hands and feet were still in great pain...
"Go to hell..."
Tuoba Dada swung his arm, sending Yuwen Yingying flying. Nazha tried to stop him, but it was too late. By the time Yuwen Yingying landed, it was too late for her to intervene…
“Yingying…”
No matter how Nazha called out to her, Yuwen Yingying did not respond; she had already fainted…
While still unconscious, Li Zhu couldn't help but roar in his own mental world. He never imagined that the other party would use such force against a woman who couldn't even kill a chicken...
"Bastard... I'm going to kill you... kill you..."
Although Li Zhu cursed wildly, it was to no avail, because Tuoba Dada couldn't hear anything at all. He could only unleash his powerless rage in his own mental world...
No one noticed that his finger twitched; everyone's attention was now focused on the two people fighting…
boom!
A loud explosion rang out, followed by sounds of panic within the military camp…
Before anyone could understand what was happening, a soldier collapsed to the ground, his face bruised and blackened. His skin visibly dried up, and all the blood in his body vanished almost instantly…
Everyone was stunned by what they saw, and a wave of panic washed over them, because they had no idea where the enemy was...
A chilling wind swept through, and the sky darkened in an instant, a deep-seated fear gripping everyone's hearts...
Li Zhu, who was unconscious, began to tremble, as if he had been stimulated by something...
This reaction instantly attracted the attention of several people in the room…
"Brother Zhuzhu, what's wrong..."
Having just regained consciousness, Yuwen Yingying immediately rushed excitedly to Li Zhu's side and asked in a weak voice, completely disregarding that she was also injured...
But Li Zhu was unable to respond at this moment, because the demon god in his mind seemed to sense something and began to tremble uncontrollably...
Seeing this, Li Zhu was puzzled, wondering what had happened. He sensed an aura of fear emanating from the demon god…
The fact that a remnant soul of a demon god, the being who protected him during his transmigration, could have fears was something Li Zhu couldn't understand. What exactly had the other party sensed...?
"Demon God! Demon God!"
Li Zhu called out twice to the demon god beside him, but the demon god stared intently at a certain spot and did not respond to Li Zhu at all…
Inside the royal court of Xiliang, everyone was fleeing in panic, but no one knew where was safe...
The dark clouds seemed about to fall from the sky, growing lower and lower, making everyone's hearts increasingly heavy...
Just then, Wang Yanzhang suddenly appeared with soldiers from the New Tang Dynasty, throwing out jar after jar. A pungent odor filled the entire camp, and some people immediately recognized it as sulfur wine…
With the appearance of the sulfurous wine, the panicked soldiers then noticed the poisonous insects on the ground; it turned out that the soldiers who had just died had been poisoned by these insects…
Knowing the source of the danger, the fear in everyone's hearts lessened, and some began to shout and use the torches in their hands to drive away the poisonous insects on the ground...
The situation gradually came under control, but the dark clouds in the sky grew lower and lower, as if they were about to engulf everyone...
"General Wang, the Miao people have arrived..."
Guo Wei looked at him and spoke softly, but without fear, because if they could defeat Miao Jiang once, they could defeat them a second time…
"We just arrived here when the Miao people caught up with us. They're definitely after the Crown Prince. We've already helped the Xiliang people stabilize the situation; protecting the Crown Prince is the most important thing now. Let's go..."
Wang Yanzhang spoke decisively, his brows furrowed with domineering confidence. After Li Zhu fell into a coma, he had been in command of almost the entire army, and everyone trusted his judgment. So they immediately followed him straight to Li Zhu's tent...
"Submit...or die..."
A domineering voice rang out in the royal court of Xiliang. Everyone was terrified and looked up at the sky. Some even knelt on the ground and prayed incessantly, thinking it was the wrath of the gods...
"Who dares to cause trouble in my Xiliang?"
Tuoba Xiong shouted angrily, and the person who spoke seemed to be provoked, immediately roaring. The next moment, the guards beside Tuoba Xiong seemed to have their hearts crushed by some force, and they all vomited blood and died, which terrified Tuoba Xiong.
Just then, Tuoba Dada rushed to Tuoba Xiong's side, concerned but not asking...
"Anda, are you alright?"
"I'm fine, what happened?"
Tuoba Xiong looked at Tuoba Dada and asked, hoping to get a definite answer!
"It's the Miao people. When we left Luoyang, we encountered a ghost city. The Miao people sacrificed 100,000 soldiers and civilians of the city, and they all turned into piles of white bones. These people are inhuman and extremely cruel..."
Tuoba Dada told Tuoba Xiong what he knew, and Tuoba Xiong was stunned. To sacrifice a city of 100,000 people, how cruel must one be to do such a heinous thing?
"Brother Wang, do you know something?"
Tuoba Xiong could tell that the other party seemed to be hiding something…
"this…"
Tuoba Dada hesitated for a moment, but finally decided to tell his elder brother about it. He said in a deep voice...
"It seems their target is Li Zhu, because Li Zhu possesses something the Miao people desire..."
"What? Why didn't you say so sooner?"
Tuoba Xiong roared angrily, saying that if he had known this would happen, he would never have accepted Li Zhu...
