Chapter 135: The Divine Martial King Pei Jing is Dead, Those Who Surrender Shall Not Be Killed!
Two Fusion Realm spellcasters had fallen, causing the evil spirits within them to awaken. In an instant, chaos erupted within the Divine Martial Army.
To ordinary people, evil spirits were invincible beings, nearly immortal and indestructible.
Thus, when the evil spirits awoke, they immediately plunged into the Divine Martial Army, brutally slaughtering soldiers and devouring their flesh, causing terror among the troops.
The sight made Pei Jing's face pale and grim. Clearly, Gu Qingfeng's strength had exceeded his expectations.
The fall of the three elders of the Heavenly Sun Sword Sect and the awakening of two evil spirits made Pei Jing realize that he was now at a great disadvantage.
In this battle, he had no chance of victory.
Seeing Gu Qingfeng charging toward him, Pei Jing immediately ordered a retreat and had his men block Gu Qingfeng's path to buy himself time to escape.
"Since the Divine Martial King has come, why the rush to leave!"
Gu Qingfeng laughed loudly, then let out a long howl. His physical energy erupted like a blazing furnace, sweeping across the battlefield with terrifying might. The other Divine Martial Army soldiers were horrified and dared not take another step forward.
"Boom—"
Gu Qingfeng's body trembled, and he shot up into the air, then descended with the force of a mountain collapsing.
In an instant, the ground shook, and the earth cracked. Within ten yards, all the soldiers lost their footing.
Gu Qingfeng paid no heed to this. With a single step, he crossed dozens of yards and appeared before Pei Jing in a matter of breaths.
Pei Jing felt the ground shake, and his horse reared up in fright. He squeezed his legs to calm the horse.
"Gu Qingfeng..."
Pei Jing looked at the man before him, his face unusually calm.
"If Brother Gu is willing to ally with me, we can jointly rule the world when we achieve victory!"
At this point, Pei Jing knew he had made a grave mistake. In this battle, not only would the hundred thousand Divine Martial Army soldiers be decimated, but he himself might not survive.
With everything on the line, Pei Jing had to make one last attempt.
After all, it had taken him over twenty years to reach this point. Now, with his power growing, he was unwilling to die here.
Moreover, Pei Jing regretted his decision to lead the army in person. If he had been more cautious, the situation wouldn’t be so dire. The loss of a hundred thousand soldiers was insignificant compared to his millions of troops. With such a vast army, he wouldn’t have to fear a single Grandmaster.
But it was too late now.
Gu Qingfeng stood before him, and even though Pei Jing was a Grandmaster, he had no courage to make a move. The gap between them was too great, so great that it instilled despair.
Hearing Pei Jing’s words, Gu Qingfeng shook his head and laughed.
"You couldn’t even take White Stone Dao, what makes you think you can conquer the world? There’s nothing to say about victory and defeat. If this is your last words, then I’ll remember them!"
With that, Gu Qingfeng swung his blade.
The Overlord Blade Slash cleaved through the sky, the blood-red aura of the Evil Slayer Blade illuminating everything. The threat of death loomed over Pei Jing, who roared in anger, his true energy and physical energy erupting as he struck out with both palms toward Gu Qingfeng.
Boom!
Two forces collided, and the latter shattered like dry twigs.
The blood-red blade of energy sliced through the protective aura, cutting through Pei Jing’s body and slaughtering the dozens of cavalrymen following him.
On the ground, the blade of energy carved a deep gash into the earth.
Pei Jing, mounted on his horse, remained motionless.
After a moment, a thin line of blood spread down from his forehead, and in no time, the mighty Warlord Pei Jing split into two, falling dead on the spot.
This sight sent shockwaves through the remaining leaders of the Warlord Army.
Pei Jing is dead!!
No one had expected this. Before coming to White Stone Dao, everyone had believed they would win this battle. After all, they had not only a hundred thousand elite troops but also three powerful experts from the Heavenly Sun Sword Sect accompanying them.
Such a formidable force would have been almost invincible, even in the entire Guangyang Prefecture, where few could truly stand against them. The imperial army of Guangyang Prefecture had numbered only three hundred thousand, with fewer Grandmasters and Soul Fusion Realm experts than the Warlord Army.
Who could have imagined that White Stone Dao would be so powerful?
No—
More accurately, it was the strength of this Overlord Blade that was so terrifying.
Grandmaster!
This was a true Grandmaster!
Three slashes to kill the three Soul Fusion Realm elders of the Heavenly Sun Sword Sect, and one slash to kill the innate Grandmaster Warlord Pei Jing. Such power was undoubtedly terrifying.
At that moment, at North Gate, Gu Yang, seeing the situation, immediately ordered the city gates to be opened. He personally led the army into a charge, reaching Gu Qingfeng in no time, lifting Pei Jing’s corpse and roaring angrily.
"Warlord Pei Jing is dead! Those who surrender will be spared!"
"Warlord Pei Jing is dead! Those who surrender will be spared!"
"Warlord Pei Jing is dead! Those who surrender will be spared!"
His three roars echoed across the entire army.
In an instant, the remaining Warlord Army, upon seeing Pei Jing’s corpse, were filled with despair. They dropped their weapons and ceased resistance.
However, two revived malevolent spirits were still causing chaos, slaughtering indiscriminately. Gu Qingfeng immediately intervened, subduing both spirits. Gu Yang then ordered a golden coffin to be brought, sealing the two subdued spirits completely.
With this, the battle was truly over.
—
Inside North Gate, in a makeshift government office, Gu Yang, his shirt stained with blood, had not yet had time to change. Despite this, a smile could not be hidden from his face.
When he saw Gu Qingfeng, he bowed deeply.
"Father, I greet you!"
"You don’t need to be so formal. Speak your mind."
Gu Qingfeng glanced at him, his tone indifferent.
Gu Yang straightened up, his face beaming with joy. "In this battle, Warlord Pei Jing is dead, and about half of the Warlord Army has surrendered. Our Gu family army has achieved a great victory. Father, what do you think we should do next?"
"Didn’t you already have a plan in mind?"
Gu Qingfeng countered.
Hearing this, Gu Yang did not hesitate, nodding and saying, "I believe that with the imperial army of Guangyang Prefecture just having suffered a crushing defeat, and our great victory, we should take advantage of this momentum to conquer the entire Guangyang Prefecture. With Father’s Grandmaster strength, no one in Guangyang Prefecture can stand against you. As for the martial sects, they are like reeds in the wind. With Father here, they won’t dare to cause much trouble!"
Carry the momentum of victory.
Conquer Guangyang Prefecture.
This was Gu Yang’s next objective.
