The arrival of Shen Changqing surprised the Black Tiger Army.
If the opponent intercepts the barbarian army alone, even if they successfully break out, they may not be able to find this place.
Return again.
The Black Tiger Army, serving as a secret sentinel, still stayed at its original position.
As for Shen Changqing, he will return with Chu Ding.
Along the way.
No one spoke.
Although Chu Ding was very curious about how Shen Changqing was killed and what was going on with the barbarian army now, he could understand many things from the thick smell of blood on the opponent's body.
Bloody clothes.
Blood knife.
The thick blood was so coagulated that it was not even clear whether Shen Changqing had any serious injuries.
soon.
Several people returned.
Nie Xu, who had been waiting there for a long time, immediately spotted Shen Changqing who was returning with him.
"Master Shen!"
There was a look of surprise on his face, which soon turned into surprise.
"Lord Nie."
A smile appeared on Shen Changqing's face. Seeing an acquaintance put him in a good mood.
soon.
There were soldiers who brought water and dry food.
"Master Shen, sit down and rest for a while. Drink some water and eat some dry food to supplement your consumption. I don't know if you have any injuries on your body. Our army also has some healing drugs."
After handing the things to Shen Changqing, Chu Ding continued to ask.
Shen Changqing didn't shirk, he took the water and dry food directly, sat down on the spot, and wiped out everything by three strokes, five divisions, and two divisions.
One fight down.
His consumption is not light either.
Some consumption.
It cannot be completely offset by relying on a strong body.
Now that I have eaten something and drank some water, I have calmed down a bit.
quite a while.
Shen Changqing took a deep breath, used the remaining water to wash away the blood on his face, and then shook his head.
"The injuries are not serious. Just rest for a while and you'll be fine."
The most serious injury on his body was the knife that Melba gave him.
but.
The recovery power of the Invincible Golden Body is indeed powerful.
In the face of the self-healing power of the physical body, although the injury on the shoulder has not fully recovered, it has recovered to some extent. If it is not done again in a short period of time, the wound will not collapse.
Thus.
It will take a few days to fully recover.
Hear the words.
Several other people were also slightly relieved.
"correct."
Shen Changqing seemed to have thought of something and said casually.
"Now that Melba is dead, the remaining barbarian armies will probably fall into chaos in the short term. It won't be that easy to continue the pursuit.
The Black Tiger Army can take this opportunity to take a good rest."
Calm voice.
In the ears of Chu Ding and others, it sounded like thunder in their hearts, causing their bodies to shake violently.
What's the meaning!
Melba is dead!
How did he die!
Chu Ding looked excited, and the commander of the Black Tiger Army finally couldn't keep calm, and his voice became trembling when he spoke.
"Master Shen is saying that Melba is dead!?"
"good."
Shen Changqing nodded, giving a few people a definite answer once again.
"If I hadn't killed him, I wouldn't have been able to escape so easily."
"Okay, very good. I didn't expect that Melba would fall into the hands of Lord Shen after he had been in power all his life. This is a great achievement."
Chu Ding laughed heartily.
He also didn't expect that Melba would die in Shen Changqing's hands.
To know.
Melba's strength was very strong. In the past, even the huge Baijiang Sect was unable to compete with the other party. Instead, it was uprooted by it.
Talking about strength.
There are very few people in the world who can compete with Melba.
A strong person in the middle stage of Grandmaster.
It's not radish and cabbage, they are all over the street.
but.
Chu Ding then thought about it. Shen Changqing's physical body reached the level of Tiger Leopard Thunder Sound. He was considered a strong man in the late stage of Grand Master. It was not strange to kill Melba in the middle stage of Grand Master.
If it was a one-on-one situation, he would definitely not be surprised.
But.
Melba was not alone. The opponent still had a barbarian army tens of thousands strong.
Under such circumstances, it is a bit shocking that Shen Changqing was able to kill Melba.
certainly.
Chu Ding did not doubt the authenticity of Shen Changqing's words.
After all, things like Melba's death can be understood by just asking around a little bit.
Now that the other party has said it, it cannot be false.
When Shen Changqing told about Melba's death, Chu Ding was shocked, and Zhong Chi, Nie Xu and others also had shocked expressions on their faces.
"Master Shen killed Maierba, so the barbarian army attacking Jincheng will be leaderless. Unfortunately, there are only more than 2,000 remnants of the Black Tiger Army in hand. As long as there are tens of thousands of Black Tiger Army, they can capture Jincheng again. gone back."
Zhong Chi sighed with emotion at first, and then shook his head with regret.
pity.
What a pity.
As long as the power in hand is sufficient, the lost Jincheng will be brought back under the control of the imperial court.
Chu Ding's face calmed down.
"There is no rush to counterattack Jincheng. Now all the people in Jincheng have evacuated, and most of the remaining granaries have been burned down. Even if the barbarians captured Jincheng, it will not have much effect.
Moreover, although Melba was dead, there were still a lot of barbarian troops left, so it would not be easy to capture Jincheng.
What we need to do now is to meet up with others and then make plans."
Just like Shen Changqing said.
Now that Melba is dead, the probability of the barbarians pursuing him again is low.
The commander-in-chief of an army was killed in battle.
It will definitely cause quite a commotion.
Looking at everyone's faces, Shen Changqing didn't give any suggestions.
"I spent a lot of time in the previous battle. Now I need to take a rest. If you have anything to discuss, just discuss it yourself. I won't interfere."
"Master Shen, it's time to take a good rest."
Chu Ding nodded in agreement.
Shen Changqing stood up and immediately came to a relatively secluded place, where he sat cross-legged and meditated to resume the previous consumption.
The consumption of the physical body can be restored by swallowing meat.
The mental consumption must be accumulated bit by bit over time.
originally.
In fact, his mental exertion is not great. As long as he sleeps normally for a night, he can recover to the fullest.
But later, when he understood the true meaning of Bai Zhan Sword Technique and used his mind to fight against the enemy, the mental loss was greatly increased.
Got to now.
Shen Changqing felt a stabbing pain in his head, but he suppressed it forcefully.
Sit cross-legged.
He did not immediately enter the breath-control state, but calmed down his mind first and entered his own panel.
on the panel.
The kill value is still pitifully low, and there is no way to improve the martial arts in the next round, but there are some differences in other panels.
First, on the martial arts column, there is an additional panel called True Meaning.
at the same time.
The words "Hundred Battles Sword Technique" also disappeared from the martial arts panel, and were replaced by the true meaning panel.
The true meaning of a hundred battles (10%)
"The true meaning of Bai Zhan is the true meaning of martial arts that I have understood after I have perfected the sword technique of Bai Zhan. The so-called 10% is probably my understanding of the true meaning."
Shen Changqing thought secretly.
The fact that Bai Zhan's true meaning has come true shows that he has just crossed the threshold of true meaning.
"The deeper you understand the true meaning of martial arts, the stronger a warrior will be. Now that I have achieved one hundred battles true meaning, I have barely crossed the threshold of a master. So how much has Melba comprehended the true meaning of martial arts?"
Shen Changqing thought of Melba who was killed by him.
It didn't take long.
He dispelled many of his inner conjectures.
To be honest.
Shen Changqing is in a vague state about his own situation. He is not sure what level his strength is.
If one were to judge by the true meaning of martial arts, he could only barely reach the realm of a master.
But judging by his true strength, he is clearly qualified to crush Melba in the middle stage of Grandmaster.
in addition.
The tiger, leopard and thunder sound seems to be a realm among the masters.
"After all, my understanding of the Grand Master is too little. I must find time to go back to the Demon Suppression Division. All my doubts can be answered by the Demon Suppression Division."
Arriving in Jincheng, time is not short.
At the beginning, it was just to cooperate with the Tiancha Guard and explore the stronghold of the Eternal Alliance. No one expected that they would encounter a barbarian invasion at this time.
so.
Strictly speaking, Shen Changqing's mission in Jincheng has been completed long ago.
Returning to the Demon-Suppressing Division at this time is not a big problem.
If it is normal.
He won't be in a hurry to go back to Suppress the Demon Division.
only.
Now that his strength has been greatly improved, Shen Changqing also has many doubts about martial arts. If he wants to answer his doubts, he can only start from the Demon Suppressing Division.
Figure something out.
It can also be of great help to improve your own strength.
Immediately.
After making the decision, Shen Changqing completely calmed down and entered a state of breath regulation.
The other side.
Chu Ding and others are still discussing some things.
For them.
Shen Changqing's escape from the siege was a happy event in itself, and now that he has brought news of Melba's death, it is even more of a double joy.
Melba died.
Once the barbarian army breaks through Jincheng, the threat will be greatly reduced.
In this case, Chu Ding had to adjust his initial strategy.
A night of silence.
Originally, the Black Tiger Army only wanted to rest briefly for an hour or two before evacuating this place, because in doing so, the probability of being discovered by the barbarians would be greatly reduced.
If you stay too long, you can easily be surrounded by barbarians.
However, the news brought by Shen Changqing meant that the Black Tiger Army no longer had to hurry and could wait until they had enough rest before setting off to leave.
Wait until the fish belly turns white on the horizon.
Shen Changqing woke up from meditation, and as usual, he opened his mouth to swallow the first ray of free purple energy between heaven and earth.
Compared to his current energy reserves.
That wisp of purple energy entered the abdomen, just like a mud cow entering the sea, without causing any waves.
