Chapter 644 She Single-handedly Slayed Through Four Countries (Part 7)
“Ah! Save me!”
Several surviving generals from the four countries,
Their fighting spirit gone, let out yelps,
Fleeing towards the outside. Their legs felt weak, causing them to stumble, looking incredibly disheveled.
“Hmph! Trying to run?”
Qi Huang’s spiritual sense emerged from her body, binding the six fleeing generals in place. She then leisurely walked towards them.
The generals struggled with all their might, but they couldn’t even blink. Sweat poured down their contorted faces like rain.
“Listen well, generals of your Gaosheng Kingdom, Snowfield Dynasty, and Feisha Dynasty. Return to your armies and tell your Grand Marshals to retreat. If any soldier dares to remain in the Xihui Dynasty within five days, none of you will be going home.”
Qi Huang issued a threat. She wasn’t a maniac, so she was willing to give these people a chance to live. Otherwise, she could have easily slaughtered them all.
“Yes, yes, yes…”
The generals of the three kingdoms, now free, nodded repeatedly and fled in a panic.
“Your Beiling Kingdom is also the same. Your Grand Marshal is dead, so you should retreat. If you dare to linger in the Xihui Dynasty within five days, I will personally send all hundreds of thousands of you home.”
Qi Huang said to the two surviving Beiling Kingdom deputy generals.
“Yes, commander… We will definitely do as you say…”
Another Beiling Kingdom deputy general nodded, sweating profusely.
Qi Huang smiled with satisfaction and quickly vanished from her spot. If she could subdue the enemy without fighting, that would naturally be the best outcome.
Of course, Qi Huang wouldn’t be foolish enough to leave immediately. She needed to see if these generals would keep their promise.
Qi Huang’s current spiritual sense had reached the seventh level of the Heavenly Punishment Realm, allowing her to cover the entire northern region of the Xihui Dynasty. Therefore, the movements of the armies of the four countries could not escape her notice.
The generals of the Gaosheng Kingdom, Snowfield Dynasty, and Feisha Dynasty were terrified and dared not play any tricks.
They returned and reported the events in the Beiling Kingdom’s Marshal’s Tent to their Grand Marshal.
Unfortunately, in this world, some people refuse to believe until they see the coffin.
“Marshal, the National Preceptor of Xihui Dynasty also asked me to inform you that you must lead your army to withdraw from the Xihui Dynasty within five days. If even a single soldier remains, she will hunt us down to the last man!”
In the Marshal’s Tent of the Gaosheng Kingdom, the mustachioed general reported to the Grand Marshal with trepidation.
“Nonsense! How dare she utter such words? To think of killing our four countries’ million-strong army alone, she’s truly overestimating herself.”
The Grand Marshal of the Gaosheng Kingdom remained unmoved, as he had not personally witnessed Qi Huang’s terror.
“Marshal, that person instantly killed Marshal Ran of the Beiling Kingdom with a single move. Her cultivation level has likely already reached the legendary Heavenly Punishment Realm. If that’s the case, we are no different from mere ants in her eyes. Even millions or tens of millions cannot contend with her.”
The mustachioed general reiterated with a solemn tone.
“Trash! A mere National Preceptor has scared you into cowardice? Dare to impair the army’s morale again, and I’ll cut off your head!”
The Grand Marshal of the Gaosheng Kingdom berated him.
“Yes, yes, yes…”
The mustachioed general nodded subserviently, not daring to say another word.
“It’s best that the Beiling Kingdom’s Marshal is dead. They will retreat soon, and then the Xihui Dynasty will be under our Gaosheng Kingdom’s control.”
The Grand Marshal of the Gaosheng Kingdom was not worried but pleased, muttering to himself.
Qi Huang monitored the other two countries and found the situation to be the same. The leading Grand Marshals did not believe she was that terrifying, capable of killing a million soldiers alone.
“Heh heh, truly, they won’t shed tears until they see the coffin!”
Qi Huang sighed helplessly. She didn’t want to kill, but some people wished for death.
The next moment, Qi Huang appeared inside the Marshal’s Tent of the Gaosheng Kingdom.
“Who are you?”
“Who are you?”
“Marshal… Marshal…”
“She… she is that Xihui…”
“…National Preceptor of the Xihui Dynasty!”
The goat-bearded general stammered.
“What do you want?”
The Grand Marshal of the Gaosheng Kingdom finally came to his senses and, with a look of unflustered arrogance, questioned.
“You are right. As long as the Marshal is dead, the army will naturally retreat.
Why should I waste my time then?”
Qi Huang scoffed sarcastically.
The Grand Marshal of the Gaosheng Kingdom suddenly felt a sense of dread. He reached out to draw the sword at his waist,
But his strong body suddenly burst open like a watermelon.
Instantly, flesh and blood splattered everywhere, drenching the goat-bearded general beside him as if he were covered in blood.
“National Preceptor, spare my life! National Preceptor, spare my life!”
The goat-bearded general immediately knelt and begged for mercy, tears and snot streaming down his face.
“Half a day has already passed.
You still have four and a half days.”
Qi Huang dropped a sentence and vanished from the tent.
Subsequently, Qi Huang went to the military camps of the Snowfield Dynasty and the Feisha Dynasty,
Beheading the Grand Marshals of the armies of both countries.
Qi Huang thought she had solved the problem,
But things were far from as simple as she imagined.
Although the Marshals were dead, the armies still needed to retreat,
But this required the Emperor’s permission.
It was evident that the Emperors of the four countries would not yield.
After all, why let the fat meat within reach fly away?
Therefore, they still ordered their armies to remain in place
And appointed new Marshals to take command,
As well as assigning many powerful warriors and cultivators as guards.
Only then did Qi Huang realize she had been led astray.
Some matters could not be resolved by beheading alone.
Therefore, let alone killing the Grand Marshals of the four countries,
Even if she had killed the Emperors of the four countries, it would have been useless,
Because others simply didn’t know her strength.
In that case, then don’t
Blame me for being ruthless!
Qi Huang looked at the displaced commoners of the Xihui Dynasty and finally lost all patience.
The five-day deadline arrived, but the armies of the four countries had not withdrawn from the Xihui Dynasty, as new Grand Marshals had already taken their posts.
Outside the central camp of the Beiling Kingdom, countless masters were cautiously observing their surroundings. Some were powerful warriors, while others were cultivators who had reached the Shentong Realm. Although they came from super Immortal Sects or aristocratic cultivator families, they could still interfere in the disputes of mortal kingdoms by impersonating rogue cultivators, just like Qi Huang.
Inside the Marshal’s Tent, the newly appointed Grand Marshal was calmly discussing plans to attack the Xihui Dynasty with several deputy generals. He fundamentally did not believe that the so-called National Preceptor could annihilate his army of hundreds of thousands under the protection of so many masters.
“Grand Marshal, should we ask the outer guards about the situation? Today is the sixth day. If the National Preceptor of Xihui Dynasty wasn’t lying, she could arrive at any moment.”
A middle-aged deputy general suggested.
“What are you afraid of? With so many masters protecting us, do you really think she can wipe out our army of hundreds of thousands by herself? Keep your eyes on the sand table, and don’t get distracted, or I won’t be polite.”
The newly appointed Grand Marshal sternly rebuked him.
“Yes, not only do we have the strongest martial arts masters of the Beiling Kingdom here, but we also have a Grand Elder from the number one Immortal Sect. What are you afraid of? How can you lead soldiers into battle with such cowardice?”
Another, slightly younger deputy general took the opportunity to add insult to injury.
The middle-aged deputy general was forced to shut his mouth, no longer daring to mention the matter.
Outside the military camp, hundreds of masters from both the Immortal and Martial paths were patrolling. The strongest among them was Diu Pei, the Grand Elder of the Wu Xuan Sect.
The Wu Xuan Sect was the foremost Immortal Sect in the Beiling Kingdom. As a Grand Elder, Diu Pei’s strength was naturally extremely formidable, reaching the late stage of the Shentong Realm. If one were to place him in the cultivation world of the Xihui Dynasty, no one could rival him except Qi Huang.
Perhaps because of this, Diu Pei appeared somewhat dismissive, setting up a table of tea and snacks for himself to enjoy. Most of the elders beside him were similarly relaxed, with only one young elder being an exception.
“Grand Elder, do you think that National Preceptor of the Xihui Dynasty really dares to come?”
The young elder asked worriedly, looking around.
“I doubt she dares!”
Diu Pei said confidently.
“Why? If she truly killed Marshal Ran with a single blow, then her cultivation level is likely…”
The young elder stopped speaking here, his meaning clear.
“What? Heavenly Punishment Realm?”
Diu Pei opened his eyes and calmly said, “Where would the Xihui Dynasty find a Heavenly Punishment Realm cultivator? There isn’t one in the West Continent.”
“Yes, don’t worry yourself unnecessarily! Those generals are purely exaggerating. If they don’t say that, they will be punished for dereliction of duty!”
Another elder interjected with an air of self-importance, and the others echoed his sentiment.
“Is that so?”
The young elder remained skeptical and continued to scan the surroundings. Just then, he suddenly noticed that a figure had appeared in the sky, tens of feet above.
Is that one of our people?
The young elder thought uncertainly.
But at this moment, the figure spoke.
“I said, if you don’t get out of the Xihui Dynasty within five days, I will personally send you home. Since you are unwilling to leave, fine, allow me, the National Preceptor of the Xihui Dynasty, to play the host!”
A hoarse voice resounded throughout the sky.
Hearing this, Diu Pei sprang up from his chair, as he had not detected the arrival of the other party at all.
