Chen Ping's Sword

Chapter 426 - 197: Sharpening the Blade in Calamity, Advancing Without Retreat (Part 2)

A lone rider pursued behind the retreating three Hu Generals, galloping swiftly as the halberd blade flashed repeatedly.

He already struck the three riders to the ground, the remaining force attacked, causing the organs of three Black Wolves to shatter, unable to stand.

Behind, the iron cavalry thundered, already catching up.

"Wenyuan City has also been reclaimed. Bear and Tiger, the two Spirit Beasts, should not be able to withstand either." Master Qiuye’s face showed a slight daze, feeling that this battle was like a dream.

No, it’s even sweeter than the best dream she ever had.

If only this person had been born ten years earlier, the Beizhou Hu Cavalry wouldn’t dare invade the south.

Thinking of this, Master Qiuye laughed silently.

If Chen Ping really had been born ten years earlier, perhaps this world would not be the same.

The Great Li Dynasty’s tyranny and the people’s suffering would not exist, nor would there be smoke everywhere.

I might be on Qingwei Mountain, or at Jinghai Prince’s Mansion, always cultivating peacefully.

And not rolling in blood and fire.

Thinking of the elder disciples and fellow apprentices on Qingwei Mountain, Master Qiuye’s face showed a hint of sadness, but in a flash, she forcibly rallied herself, wielding her long blade, tightly following behind.

The Hu barbarians are endless, and the Black Wolves are relentless. At this moment, she cuts down a few more heads as revenge for the fallen comrades.

Although focused on slaughter, Master Qiuye always kept a part of her heart and spirit, silently watching her daughter.

Seeing Ji Mingyue’s Sword Intent, initially ethereal and unpredictable, later became straightforward and unadorned.

She knows her daughter has already passed the mental barrier, reconciling with herself during the slaughter, initially killing people, now like killing dogs.

In Sword Technique, she has passed the Heart Tribulation, no longer troubled by Heart Demons.

From this moment, she counts as a qualified Commanding General, with her Sword Technique soaring further in the future.

"In the blink of an eye, even my daughter has grown up; truly the Qingjiang River pushes waves ahead..."

Not only did Ran Qiuye kill calmly and thoroughly, but also those following behind Chen Ping, including Xiao Tong and Yu Hanshan, swept through, clearing the remaining enemies.

They feel, killing Hu along the way, their hearts and minds are clear, no longer entangled like before, nor bewildered.

Generals die in hundreds of battles, return wrapped in horse leather.

In such a Military Array, on such a battlefield, even dying here brings immense satisfaction.

Since Murong Wudi and others died, it was evident that the Beizhou Hu soldiers guarding Wenyuan City began to rapidly lose morale.

From afar, soldiers could be seen starting to flee.

How arrogant they were before, now how terrified they are.

Inside the city, hidden Great Li soldiers and Jianghu people, seeing an opportunity, emerged from wells and cellars, with red eyes, shouting as they counter-attacked.

These people looked ghostly, with murderous aura like blood on them.

Probably deeply stimulated during previous massacres and abuses.

Some, while charging, wailed loudly.

Because family members died on the invasion day.

Some, while charging, exhausted themselves to the death, their faces showing smiles.

As they have killed enough Hu People, fulfilling their wishes.

Chen Ping also saw countless women, scantily dressed or with vacant eyes, like fierce ghosts, watching Hu people die miserably.

Some shed bloody tears; some cried mournfully, like cuckoos crying blood.

Certainly, after entering Wenyuan City, there were obstacles.

There were still masters disbelievingly attacking Chen Ping.

The large Black Bear looked clumsy and stout, as tall as two floors, crashing against buildings until they fell.

The Spirit Beast raised by Divine Master Duran, unknown what it ate to grow, had extremely strong combat power.

This Black Bear blocked six halberds from Chen Ping before being severed in arms and beheaded.

It wasn’t stronger than Murong Wudi, but its enormous size allowed it to endure injuries better.

The only thing puzzling Chen Ping was the Black Bear’s lack of intelligence, still charging to death despite knowing its defeat.

Beasts, even with Spirit Communication, have different thoughts from humans.

Like the white-striped fierce Tiger, it was sneakier, fleeing while eating people, avoiding Chen Ping’s attack paths.

However, this Spirit Beast wasn’t that smart; when Chen Ping pretended to be exhausted, rested from his mount in meditation, it stealthily rode the wind to attack.

The outcome needs no elaboration.

It provided Chen Ping with an excellent tiger skin cushion and became a feast for several Generals.

By this time, the city’s remaining enemies were mostly cleared.

The only notable "master" to escape was the Golden Eagle.

Perhaps it learned from last time’s lesson when it was severely wounded by Chen Ping’s arrows.

The Golden Eagle kept hiding in the clouds, hundreds of feet high, refusing to come down.

Even Little Cyan Bird chased up, teasing it variously, but it never descended to attack.

Chen Ping, wanting to shoot it with an arrow, couldn’t, having to watch it flee.

Master Qiuye caught up from behind, seeing Chen Ping still somewhat unwilling, hurriedly advised, "Do not pursue cornered enemies. That Divine Master Duran, who always treasured his five Spirit Beasts, now with the Bear and Tiger slain, is surely deeply hurt. Best to return with the army, relying on rear positions and cities to contend with this villain, do not be careless."
