The area south of the Huaijiang River in Daxia is mostly forested and hilly, and plain terrain is extremely rare compared to the north.
Because of this, the official roads in the south are not as wide as those in the north. The span in the forest hills is only about half a mile.
Even though there were six or seven miles of mountains and forests between the two sides, Xia Chunqiu and others heard clearly the scene where the Taikoo side was suddenly struck by a thunderous disaster.
The roar of towering trees falling to the ground, mixed with the heart-rending cries of pain from the Taikou army, made Xia Chunqiu's heart tighten: "What's going on? Such a powerful thunder... Could it be a certain king?"
Is the high-grade mysterious beast causing trouble?"
"Hey, Huo Lin and the others didn't know what kind of existence they provoked, and they actually caused such a huge commotion. Their people must have suffered heavy casualties, right?"
The young prince Xia Yufeng said in a gloating tone: "Father, God is really helping me in Huainan!"
"Originally, after Chen Shen was eradicated, Tai Kou Wu Lin and the more than 200 Xuan Master realm masters they led posed a great threat to us. But now, a sudden disaster has greatly reduced their strength.
You can no longer jump around on our land!"
When Xia Chunqiu heard this, he just cursed in his heart that he was "short-sighted" and said with a gloomy face: "It's far from the time to rejoice in others' misfortunes!"
"Chen Shen hasn't taken the bait yet, but Huo Lin is making such a big fuss. If we scare the snake, wouldn't all the previous efforts be wasted?"
"What do you mean?"
"You guys stay here while I, the king, go to find out in person. If it is really a mysterious beast of a certain king's rank that is causing trouble, since its intelligence is not weaker than that of human cultivators, I may not be able to dissuade it from its behavior."
Having said that, Xia Chunqiu slapped the ground with one palm, and his whole body formed a "one" shape, almost at the height of the ground, and rushed towards the ambush location of the Taikou Army.
The reason why this old guy "didn't take the ordinary path" was because he was afraid that his six-star Xuanwang's fire energy Xuanguang would be too dazzling.
If at this moment, Chen Shen's large army was not far away from them, they would most likely be alerted and would not dare to move forward, making Xia Chunqiu's crouching plan a failure.
In a moment, the Taikou army fell to the ground.
Xia Chunqiu had a panoramic view of the scene after Lei Neng suddenly appeared, and his whole old face suddenly twisted into the word "sorrow": "What, what is going on? Most of the masters of Xuan Master were killed and injured, and even Tu Lin was killed.
An arm?"
"What's going on? Damn you, I still want to ask you!" Huo Lin said with hatred in his eyes: "Didn't you say that this ambush point has been explored countless times by your men and horses, and there are no powerful mysterious beasts around it?
?”
"Okay! Now please explain to me what happened to that thunder pillar just now?"
Huo Lin's eyes are about to burst, and his emotions are on the verge of going berserk and out of control!
Thinking about it, the more than 200 Xuan Masters he mobilized from the front line are not only the most outstanding soldiers in the army, but also the backbone of the Taikou Kingdom.
Fortunately, my men were lying down at the ambush site planned by King Huainan without moving at all, and they were just about to turn into living fossils!
But what was the result? A sudden lightning beam killed more than a hundred of Tai Kou’s Xuan Master realm masters in an instant...
If this kind of loss occurred in the confrontation with Chen Shen's army, it would be nothing more than repayment. But they were all caught in the process of defense without defense. One can imagine Huo Lin's mood.
"Huo Lin, please be patient! No one wants to see something like this happen."
While Xia Chunqiu spoke to calm the other party's angry mood, he pushed the power of his soul to the limit, using his consciousness and senses to survey everything within a two-mile radius, as if he wanted to find out the real culprit!
Well, as a six-star Xuanwang, his spiritual perception can already cover a two-mile radius.
However, compared with Chen Shen's special skill that can see the ends of hair within a hundred miles radius, this old guy's realm is still far behind.
His consciousness scanned over and over again, but he still didn't find anything strange. He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "Chen Shen shouldn't have arrived yet. Huo Lin, you don't want our ambush operation to fail, right? Then stop them quickly.
Howling in agony!"
"As long as we can kill Chen Shen, kill 20,000 knights, and 3,000 blood guards, the benefits we will get are simply immeasurable..."
When the Taikoo Wulin King heard this, they all gasped heavily, obviously very angry.
However, it was really a critical moment now, and they knew they couldn't act on impulse, so they all snorted coldly, suppressed their anger and pain, and waited for the arrival of Chen Shen's army.
"Huh, luckily King Wulin didn't get confused at this time. The situation should be stable..."
Just as Xia Chunqiu breathed a sigh of relief, his tense nerves suddenly trembled again——
Because just six or seven miles behind him, a shocking cry of killing suddenly came out!
"this……"
"What's going on? Is it possible that our army also suffered a sneak attack from the Beast King?"
Xia Chunqiu was worried: "No wonder this king came here, but he didn't feel the aura of any strong person within a radius of two miles. How dare this evil beast run wild in my crouch!"
On the other hand, Huo Lin had a hint of joy on his lips: "Hehehehe, this is only fair."
Tu Lin, who was resentful because of his broken arm, became even more rude and joked: "Hehehe, King Huainan, you'd better take care of your children first. Be careful not to be eaten up by that monster."
Got it!"
"you!"
At this time, the turmoil at the Huainan Army's ambush point became more and more violent——
"Pfft, pfft, pfft!"
"Uh ah ah..."
"Guh! Enemy, enemy attack, be careful!"
"You, aren't you Chen Qibing, the second elder of the Chen family? You, you, you, why are you here?"
This is the soulless scream of the young prince Xia Yufeng.
He never imagined that he was the one who set up an ambush, why would he be attacked quietly and beautifully from behind?
Dozens of masters of the Huainan Army did not even realize that they would be attacked by surprise. They were so busy hiding their aura that they did not even have time to use their body-protecting Xuan Qi before they were beheaded by the rain of Xuan Neng swords...
"And you? Qiangan? You idiot, you traitor, you actually have the nerve to attack the hinterland of Huainan?"
"Don't think that you can be lawless after being promoted to the two-star Xuanwang. Let's see how I tear you apart!"
This was the voice of the left general Feng Chaotian shouting angrily.
"You are all here, why don't you see Chen Shen alone? Damn it, is that little beast hiding in a corner, acting like a turtle bastard? If you have the guts, come out and fight your Grandpa Yang for three hundred rounds!
"
Xia Chunqiu could hear that this was the angry roar of right general Yang Yaoxiong...
Xia Chunqiu could even hear that in the roaring tones of these people, in addition to the overwhelming hatred and sudden surprise, there was also a heartbreaking sense of loss.
In the short period of ten seconds since he left the formation and came to "visit" the Taikoo allies, his troops had already suffered heavy losses!
Where did they come from? Why did they seem to know their ambush location early in the morning and come to kill them quietly? Also, was the lightning pillar from before really the hand of a certain top-grade beast king?
One question after another lingers in my mind, and I can't get rid of it.
The dignified King of Huainan was defeated even before his army was launched. He didn't even see the face of the enemy's real master, so he was already fooled...
