My Wife Is A General Who Killed Tens Of Thousands On The Battlefield Chapter 255 - The Words of a Saint

Chapter 255: The Words of a Saint

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Five experts.
In terms of seniority, Xiang Mang was from the generation of Xiang Feiyan’s father.
Guan Gu was Guan Long’s grandfather.
The remaining three were also the Patriarchs of the aristocratic families in the current court.
Among them, Guan Gu was the strongest, a 5th Grade Heaven Rank cultivator.
Next was Xiang Mang at 3rd Grade Heaven Rank.
As for the others, they were only at the 2nd Stage Heaven Rank!
However, these two strongest people also looked the youngest.
After all, those who broke through to the 3rd Grade of Heaven Rank would be able to regain their youth and rebuild their bodies.
However, as people who had lived for a long time they would not make themselves look too young as well.
After all, they were all people of virtue and prestige. It was not a good thing to make himself look too young and childish.
Hence, most of them appeared to be in their forties to fifties.
Of course, this situation was not standardized across the board.
Some people might like to be young, thus making themselves look young when they rebuilt their bodies.
At this moment, the five of them were flying through the air at an extremely fast speed.
In a few days, they arrived at the Eastern Border. On the way, Su Wen even met up with Yan Ze.
Yan Ze had already been transferred back to the capital and was planning to lead his troops south.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, they did not stay for long.
After Su Wen and the others arrived at the Eastern Border, they met the Heaven Rank expert in charge of following Yan Luoying. His cultivation level was even lower than the group, only at 1st Grade Heaven Rank.
It was obvious how difficult it was to break through each grade of the Heaven Rank.
In reality, the reason why Xiang Feng was able to break through to the Heaven Rank was not only because he had consumed three Heaven Rank pills, but also because one of them was an incomparably precious Dao Comprehension Pill!
Two of them increased his cultivation, while the other allowed him to further comprehend his martial Dao.
It allowed him to break through to the 2nd Grade in one go.
In contrast, the three Heaven Rank medicinal pills that Su Wen obtained from Xiang Ding were all only used to increase one’s cultivation.
That was also why he went over to earn a wave of Emotional Value in the capital of Zhou.
He directly changed all of them to Time Freeze cards to cultivate and comprehend the Dao!
Three Time Freeze Cards meant three years!
Su Wen directly consumed the three fire-attributed Heaven Rank elixirs and cultivated within the system’s room using the Time Freeze Card.
The three years of time allowed him to finally break through to 2nd Grade.
Right now, his Heaven Earth Origin Qi Barrier had already taken shape.
A 1st Grade Heaven Rank cultivator could comprehend heaven and earth, causing the Origin Qi of heaven and earth to surge within them. Every movement they made was accompanied by the Origin Qi.
At that point, one’s battle prowess would be raised to terrifying levels. Then, when one broke through to 2nd Grade Heaven Rank, they would form a Heaven Earth Origin Qi Barrier, greatly enhancing his defense.
In Yan Luoying’s tent, Su Wen sat facing her..
Su Wen smiled as he sensed Yan Luoying’s cultivation level and aura.
This girl’s cultivation had improved quite a bit.
“How much longer do you think Ji Luo Country can last?” Su Wen asked.
Yan Luoying smiled and said, “Ji Luo has been defeated consecutively. The situation is already hopeless. As long as we break through the Virtuous Peace Pass and head east, it will be a flat land that can directly attack the capital of Ji Luo. At that time, we can break through it in one final battle.”
As the two of them were talking, a guard reported, “Commander Yan, there’s someone outside the tent requesting to meet with Commander Yan. He said that he can help Commander Yan break through the Virtuous Peace Pass.”
Yan Luoying pondered for a moment and said, “Quickly invite him in.”
After the guard left, Yan Luoying smiled and said, “I want to see what this person wants.”
If he really had an idea on how to take down the Virtuous Peace Pass easily, that would be for the best.
No one wanted their subordinates to suffer heavy casualties.
Soon, a young man entered.
This young man was dressed in short combat clothes, and his face looked a little uneasy.
Yan Luoying said in a low voice, “Who are you? What’s the purpose of meeting me?”
Yan Luoying did not notice anything unusual.
However, Su Wen already felt that something was wrong.
The moment his gaze met the young man, his hair stood on end.
A strong sense of danger welled up in his heart!
As expected, the young man looked at Yan Luoying and smiled. “Are you Yan Luoying? I’m here today to take your life!”
As he spoke, he took a step forward!
In an instant, the surroundings changed!
The entire tent was filled with Saber Qi!
Su Wen also moved at the same time, and his expression changed drastically.
This was an exclusive domain that could only be opened by a 3rd Grade Heaven Rank cultivator!
This would allow their battles to develop in a more favorable direction!
For example, within this Saber Qi Domain, there were thousands of Saber Qi auras flying around!
This person casually pointed, and the Saber Qi auras shot straight at Yan Luoying!
Yan Luoying couldn’t even move at this point!
The next second, Su Wen stood in front of Yan Luoying!
His back suddenly appeared indomitable and mighty in front of her!
He knew that he had to withstand this move. Otherwise, Yan Luoying would definitely die.
He also knew that as long as he blocked this move, reinforcements would definitely arrive.
His eyes widened in anger, as a red halo suddenly erupted around his body!
“Flame God Token! It can withstand an attack at 3rd Grade Heaven Rank!”
However, it was useless! That violent Saber Qi instantly shattered the Flame God Token’s Qi barrier!
“This guy isn’t just at 3rd Grade Heaven Rank!” Su Wen hastily exclaimed to himself.
At that moment, the other Heaven Rank experts in Chu had surged into the sky!
Su Wen knew that he could not retreat!
Heaven Earth Origin Qi barrier, Die Yi armor!
In an instant, all of his cards were activated.
He clenched his fists and congealed the Heaven and Earth Origin Qi around the area as well.
Concentrating Flame, Forming Sun!
“Great Solar Celestial Sun Divide!”
After Su Wen broke through to the Heaven Rank, the Concentrating Flame, Forming Sun technique that originally required a long period of time was no longer that troublesome. It was completed in an instant!
A violent sun blasted out!
Su Wen tried to forcefully break through the saber Qi!
However!
The countless saber intent, be it in quality or quantity, were too terrifying!
In an instant, the scorching sun erupted, bringing with it an extremely high temperature and extremely powerful True Qi.
It collided with the Saber Qi!
Splat!
A gash appeared on Su Wen’s body!
But this was only the beginning.
Thousands of Saber Qi broke through his Celestial Sun Divide!
His surroundings were completely filled with Saber Qi.
At the critical moment, Su Wen gritted his teeth and suddenly turned around to hug Yan Luoying!
Puchi! Puchi!
Violent Saber Qi continuously slashed at Su Wen’s body, head, arms, and limbs.
However, Yan Luoying remained protected by him.
In but a short moment, Su Wen seemed to have suffered a thousand cuts. His entire back had been sliced open, and his internal organs were exposed!
He looked as though he was about to die.
“Eh? You’ve cultivated a body-tempering cultivation technique? Even after slashing like this, your body didn’t disintegrate?”
Yan Luoying heard the confusion in the youth’s voice!
At this moment, a loud roar was heard. “Who dares to be impudent here?”
Guan Gu had already discovered the abnormality!
The young man glanced at Su Wen and Yan Luoying before turning around!
The assassination had failed!
“But killing a Heaven Rank expert is enough.” The young man shook his head.
His figure was extremely fast! By the time Guan Gu arrived, this youth had already disappeared!
“A 5th Grade Heaven Rank expert!” Guan Gu was solemn.
But when he saw the scene on the ground, his expression changed drastically!
Su Wen was dead?
In the next second, the fire elemental energy in Su Wen’s body erupted!
Immediately after, a red light flashed and Su Wen’s injuries started to heal at a visible speed!
Undying and indestructible!
How could the undying Su Wen be so easy to kill?
In just a moment…
Su Wen had already recovered!
He heaved a sigh of relief and looked at Yan Luoying. He smiled. “Are you alright?”
Yan Luoying was stunned. How could he still smile?
Of course Su Wen could laugh and smile!
To be able to survive the assassination of such an expert, and the target Yan Luoying was not harmed, was it not worth laughing at?
Su Wen was also secretly glad that his Vermilion Bird Glazed Body was tough enough.
He had taken so much Saber Qi auras, but thankfully none of them managed to pierce through. Otherwise, Yan Luoying would have died!
Yan Luoying hugged him and whispered, “I’m fine!”
She wanted to cry, but she knew this was not the time.
She forcefully suppressed her emotions.
Su Wen soared into the air and circulated his True Qi. “Ji Luo Country sent a Heaven Rank expert to perform an assassination! The country doesn’t abide by the rules, the Chu Country will start the Heaven Rank War!”
His voice traveled thousands of miles.
The majestic voice spread out.
“Hiss!”
Upon hearing this voice, in the capital of Ji Luo Country, Bai Xingchen suddenly stood up.
He had a stunned expression!
Recently, he had been on the verge of going crazy. The Chu Country’s army had been pressing down on them, and they had been forced to retreat continuously. Right now, it could be said that the entire country was pulling out all the stops to guard the Virtuous Peace Pass, because they were afraid that they would be forced to start the Heaven Rank War!
At that time, they would likely be defeated…
But he did not expect this.
The Chu Country had actually initiated the Heaven Rank Battle!
In an instant, three people appeared in the palace.
“Did His Majesty send a Heaven Rank expert to assassinate them?”
These three were all Heaven Rank experts from the Ji Luo Royal Family.
Bai Xingchen smiled bitterly. “All of you are here. Who should I send to assassinate? It’s clearly the Chu Kingdom framing us!”
“This…”
One of the Heaven Rank experts also flew up and shouted, “Don’t talk nonsense! Our Ji Luo Country has never sent assassins!”
Su Wen couldn’t be bothered with him and directly said to everyone, “Let’s go! We’ll directly attack Ji Luo Country’s capital.”
As he spoke, Su Wen picked up Yan Luoying and flew straight to Ji Luo Country!
The Heaven Rank expert from Ji Luo Country’s army had not appeared, thus Su Wen had only left behind the Heaven Rank expert who had been present from the start to prevent any accidents!
When they arrived at the capital of Ji Luo Country…
The three Heaven Rank experts from the Ji Luo Royal Family were already waiting.
Su Wen swept his gaze across them and shouted, “If you don’t want to die, surrender immediately. There’s no one to help you now. Once the Heaven Rank battle begins, you won’t have a chance!”
“You’re framing us!” One of the Heaven Rank experts gritted his teeth.
Su Wen shook his head. “We were indeed assassinated by a Heaven Rank expert! Whether it’s you or not, the blame is on Ji Luo!”
“Aren’t you being too unreasonable!”
“This world is never a place that speaks with reason!”
Su Wen looked at them and said with a smile, “If you want to blame someone, you can only blame your country for being incompetent. If you had found a few powerful families or roped in a sect, it might not have been impossible to resist. Unfortunately… you only have three Heaven Ranks now. How can you make Great Chu your enemy?”
His expression turned solemn as he looked at the three of them and said in a deep voice, “I am the Great Chu Nanli King. I guarantee that as long as you are willing to surrender, your Ji Luo Royal Family and all the officials will not be slaughtered!”
Su Wen’s words made the three of them hesitate.
One of them roared towards the sky, “Could it be that no one is lending a hand to our Bai Clan?”
That miserable roar could be heard from afar.
However, no one responded.
Su Wen looked at him and could not help but sigh.
People still had to rely on themselves in the end.
Seeing that there was no response, the Bai Family Ancestor sighed. “I didn’t expect that the Ji Luo Country’s foundation would be destroyed in my hands!”
No one was willing to help him!
No one was willing to offend the Chu Country.
Even if it were the surrounding small countries, if they were really willing to work together, as long as they joined forces, they might have the strength to resist Great Chu.
But humans were innately selfish.
To put it bluntly, even if Ji Luo Country was destroyed, in the eyes of these people, the Chu Country might not target them afterwards.
After all, there was still the Yan Country…
A smile appeared on Su Wen’s face as he looked at the Bai Family Patriarch. “Why? Are you willing to surrender?”
“Surrender?” The Bai Family’s Ancestor said disdainfully, “Ever since my Bai family established our country, we have been instructed by our ancestors! All the descendants of my Bai family have to fight to the death when they encounter enemies. They can die, but they cannot kneel. They can die, but they cannot surrender! The descendants of my Bai family have always only been those who die in battle, and there has never been anyone who surrendered to live!”
“I am the Bai Family’s Patriarch. If I surrender today, how can I face my ancestors? How can I continue to live in this world?”
The Ancestor spoke righteously.
Su Wen sighed. In the end, a fight was still inevitable.
To be honest, he was a little worried.
It had to be known that the assassin’s cultivation level was extremely high. Although he had managed to protect Yan Luoying now, if the assassin suddenly attacked later, the consequences might not be good!
However, Su Wen still thought too much.
The assassin had already long escaped.
The Bai family’s ancestor swept his gaze across the experts of Great Chu…
And suddenly threw in an absolute plot twist, “With the ancestors as witnesses, I have already decided to surrender! I no longer have the face to stand in the world with the surname Bai. Today, I will take on my mother’s surname instead!”
“Harh?”
Su Wen was stunned… so were all the Heaven Rank experts present.
But the Ancestor had yet to finish his actions. He reached out and cut off his own hair.
He then cut off some of his nails and said, “I’ll cut my hair to substitute my head, and my nails to substitute my bones to repay the kindness my father has shown to me. From now on, I’ll have nothing to do with the Bai family!”
Fight? How? He had just broken through to 3rd Grade!
Facing Guan Gu, who was a 5th Grade Heaven Rank expert, he had long lost his confidence.
Moreover, he didn’t have many people on his side…
Everyone was at a loss for words.
He came forward and said with a smile, “Let me introduce myself. I was originally called Bai Jun, but after I changed my surname, you can call me Lu Jun. My mother’s surname is Lu!”
Su Wen: “…”
This fellow’s shamelessness seemed to be on par with his!
When Bai Xingchen heard Lu Jun surrender… he was stunned.
The main thing was that once Lu Jun surrendered, the other two Heaven Rank experts also surrendered…
Then Ji Luo Country was as good as having surrendered.
Su Wen did not expect such an outcome.
Although Ji Luo Country had surrendered, he was not happy at all!
Yan Luoying had almost died!
If he had not happened to be in the tent, Yan Luoying would have been stabbed to death and the assassin would have escaped safely.
5th Grade Heaven Rank…
This was also Su Wen’s first time fighting against an upper Grade Heaven Rank expert!
When he recalled that scene, Su Wen still felt a lingering fear.
Although he did not use all his methods, the other party might not have used his full strength either.
The surrender of Ji Luo Country was not over just like that.
Firstly, all the royal members had to be brought to the capital of Great Chu.
After that, Xiang Feiyan even sent someone to manage Ji Luo.
Su Yu… became this candidate!
At the same time, Guan Gu stayed behind to help Su Yu consolidate his authority in Ji Luo.
As for the Heaven Rank expert from Ji Luo that had surrendered, they were brought to the capital with their families.
The transition was a long process.
As for Zhou Country, at the time when Su Wen had successfully swallowed Ji Luo Country, they received a rude shock.
Emperor Yan had given Lu Zhen another 50,000 soldiers.
At this moment, Lu Zhen had even more troops on hand. He began to continuously pressure the Zhou Country, causing the pressure on them to increase.
Emperor Zhou couldn’t hold it in anymore.
He started to contact Su Wen every other day…
The tables had turned.
The Star Disk connected, and Su Wen and Emperor Zhou looked at each other.
Emperor Zhou asked coldly, “Why did your Chu Kingdom not send troops? I’ve already given you benefits!”
Su Wen smiled. He also occasionally went to Zhou Country these days.
It had to be said that with the addition of a peak 9th Grade Earth Rank expert like Tamu Chuan, the forces of Sun Wei and the others’ were flourishing.
After continuously swallowing up the gangs and consolidating their strength, they had become the leader of the Underworld in the capital.
Their investigation and intelligence collection went even smoother.
Hence, Su Wen naturally knew about the reinforcements from Yan Country.
Looking at the Zhou Emperor, Su Wen slowly said, “Uncle Zhao, how can I lie to you given our relationship? I definitely told Her Majesty to send troops, but I’m in Ji Luo Country now. Before this place stabilizes, I definitely can’t leave casually.”
Emperor Zhou said angrily, “I’m not in a good state right now! Your Chu Kingdom better be prepared to support the Heaven Rank battle!”
“Eh… you have to work hard. Could it be that you can’t do without Wu Kunhu and Yan Ze? If your generals still can’t do it, you can personally lead the army. I believe you will definitely be able to defeat Lu Zhen! You have to have confidence in yourself!” Su Wen started to brainwash Emperor Zhou!
Emperor Zhou sneered and said, “Cut the crap… Hurry up and get Xiang Feiyan to send troops!”
Three days later…
“Why haven’t you sent out your troops yet?”
The next day… “If you don’t send troops to the front line, the Huai River will be broken through!”
Under Emperor Chu’s frantic urging, Yan Ze led his army to the northern border of Yan Country!
What he brought with him were all these elite soldiers who had followed him to fight in Ji Luo Country.
Then! He displayed a completely different style.
Three passes broken through in one day!
Massacring 80,000 people in a row!
The general who defeated Guan Long last time was directly captured and beheaded by Yan Ze!
In the Yan Country, Emperor Yan’s expression was gloomy.
He never expected Yan Ze to be so much more ferocious than Guan Long.
Actually, this was also related to him transferring away a portion of the elite troops. Although there would be new recruits added up later on, on the battlefield, it was sometimes like this. There only existed a fine line between victory and defeat!
If one was weaker, the outcome would be completely different when facing stronger enemies.
Furthermore, the assassination of Yan Luoying had failed.
Emperor Yan looked at the youth in front of him and said in a deep voice, “With your strength, can’t you kill Yan Luoying?”
The youth said helplessly, “With a Heaven Rank expert protecting her, I only had one chance. That person took the brunt of my attack. It’s just that I didn’t expect his body to be so strong. Even being hit by my move, his body didn’t shatter and instead protected Yan Luoying.”
The strength of the Vermillion Bird Glazed Body was not something ordinary people could compare to.
“Forget it!” He waved his hand and looked at Qin Wenchang, asking, “Minister Qin, now that things have developed to the worst, what do you think we should do?”
Qin Wenchang said, “From the looks of it, His Majesty has two choices. The first is to wait for the battlefield to change and transfer Lu Zhen back to the northern border! We’ll maintain our current position at the Huai River line to face off against the Zhou Country… The second is to…”
Just as he spoke, a voice suddenly sounded in the sky.
“The emperors of all races in the world will gather in the extreme north of the continent in 30 days! Those who don’t come will die! All Heaven Rank experts will gather in the extreme north of the continent. Those who don’t come, death! Those who dare to take the opportunity to cause trouble for others will also die! All wars will stop. Those who dare to disobey will die!”
As soon as this voice sounded, it resounded throughout the world.
Everyone heard it.
Emperor Yan looked at the sky in shock.
Not only him, even Xiang Feiyan and Zhao Fu were shocked.
Something big was going to happen!
Su Wen did not expect someone to be so domineering.
“All Heaven Rank experts will die if they don’t come? Aren’t you afraid that the wind will cut your tongue?” Su Wen complained.
Beside him, Guan Gu shook his head and said, “These are the words of a Saint! No one can disobey!”
