Chapter 67 An old friend comes, not necessarily an old friend
The purpose of blowing the attack horn is to take advantage of the situation to lower the opponent's morale, scare the opponent and make them run further away, making the team's formation more chaotic and scattered.
In doing so, Nie Heng needs to buy time!
He knew that there were several strong warriors at the Martial Realm on the other side, and their number was no less than his own.
At the same time, he also heard the words Tuoba Lie shouted at the last moment...
If there really is a Holy Lord, it is most likely that god, and his strength must be above Tuoba Lie!
Now, once such a powerful enemy appears, everyone, including himself, can only wait to die.
So if you don’t run away now, when will you run away?
…
flee!
With Venerable Cunxue, Venerable Shroud and Qin Feng at the back, with Li Chenghui guarding in the middle, and Nie Tianyang, Zhao Hu and Zhao Long as the vanguard, the remnants of the Northern Expedition began their desperate escape all the way south!
This remnant army was small in number, and including the prisoners who were eventually rescued, the remnant army still numbered less than 3,000.
Even though their formation was still in good order, and all the soldiers in the army were well-trained heroes who had experienced countless lives and deaths, they still couldn't move faster.
Because in the martial arts realm, one cannot fly in the air!
As for the war horses, they have been eaten up by everyone long ago...
Therefore, the only option left for the army was to run away with both feet.
This is also Li Chenghui's will: never give up, never abandon any soldier!
Even if it is an ordinary soldier who cannot embark on the journey of martial arts and has been seriously injured!
This purpose was supported by all the powerful men and generals including the Shrouded Lord, the Cunxue Lord, and Nie Tianyang!
…
"Brother Nie Heng, this is the newly refined Restoration Pill. Take it quickly!"
At the center of the army, four soldiers were carrying a stretcher.
Lying on the stretcher was Nie Heng, who was covered in blood.
"It's useless...unless it's the Restoration Pill that I refined myself. The Restoration Pill that he can refine now is only useful for soldiers below the Dan Dynasty Realm!"
Smiling miserably, Nie Heng was also very upset: Why didn't he keep a little bit of the elixir for himself?
A recovery pill that he refined himself would be great too!
"What should I do?"
Baili Yi almost cried, with endless worry written on his miserable face.
"It's okay, your brother Nie Heng is broken, he won't die..."
What he said is the principle of "good people don't live long, and disasters last for thousands of years"!
Thinking of something, he asked: "Your Majesty, how far is the nearest pursuer from us?"
Hearing this, Li Chenghui sighed and said: "Ordinary cavalry from the Hungarian Empire are still seventy miles away from us, but there are three strong warriors at the Martial Realm who are already less than thirty miles away from us!"
After learning all this, Nie Heng started to think about it.
Cao Meng looked solemn and said: "According to our current speed, we will soon be entangled by those three powerful enemies of the Martial Master Realm. Now that everyone has been injured and their strength has been greatly reduced, we will probably be completely dragged down by them.
!”
"Yes, if they are surrounded by hundreds of thousands of Hungarian Empire's cavalry, even those in the Martial Master realm may be massacred by their men..."
A general thought for a while and said: "Your Majesty, please take Young Master Nie Heng and leave with a few venerables first! I will swear to the death of the Queen!"
As soon as this idea came out, there was silence all around, and many soldiers had complicated expressions on their faces.
They all know that they are holding everyone back, and even His Majesty may be surrounded by a powerful enemy army again because of their burdens.
Once this happens, won’t all the previous persistence and efforts be in vain?
Aren’t all the changes brought about by Nie Heng in vain?
"Yes, Your Majesty, Cao Meng is willing to lead everyone to stay here to set up an ambush, and will never let any of them catch up with Your Majesty as they wish!"
Cao Meng rushed forward a few steps and knelt on one knee in front of Li Chenghui.
Behind him, a large number of soldiers quickly knelt down.
"I will fight to the death and never let any enemy move forward!"
"I will fight to the death and never let any enemy move forward!"
"I'll wait..."
…
What a great army, what a great soldier!
What would happen if I had such an army in my previous life and brought them to the pinnacle of martial arts?
Nie Heng smiled: In this life, these soldiers deserve his respect, and they deserve more help from him in the future.
So before Li Chenghui could say anything, he struggled to sit up.
"Your Majesty, Lord Shroud, Qin Feng, Zhao Hu and Zhao Long, can you stay?"
What?
Nie Heng actually plans to call His Majesty the Queen?
Hearing these words, even Nie Tianyang had a look of uneasiness and doubt on his face.
Nie Heng didn't care what others thought. He just spoke seriously and said something to several powerful warriors.
Then he asked with a smile: "Five against three, or should we attack suddenly, and once we concentrate our strength, we can kill one first, and the remaining two, it shouldn't be a big problem, right?"
After hearing Nie Heng's arrangements clearly and receiving a sufficient number of "Ten Mile Teleport Scrolls" and "Hundred Mile Teleport Scrolls" from Nie Heng, Li Chenghui smiled.
"Hahaha... Nephew Nie Hengxian, no wonder you said you won't die! It seems like you really have to live for thousands of years, hahaha..."
…
The army continued to move forward.
Li Chenghui and other five powerful warriors stayed behind!
Regarding Nie Heng's arrangements, many soldiers did not know the specific details, and each had varying degrees of worries in their hearts.
After all, these people are the strongest fighting force in the Great Xia Empire now, and among them is the emperor of the empire.
If they encounter any accident or are held back by the Hungarian Empire's pursuers, the consequences will be unimaginable, and the Great Xia Empire will not be able to bear it!
But only half an hour passed before Li Chenghui and others came back.
"Hahaha... Good boy, your stuff is so useful!"
"Yes, he suddenly appeared and struck, and he really caught them off guard!"
"It's refreshing, it's refreshing. As long as the heavenly consciousness suddenly releases and locks them, it doesn't matter if it's ten miles away? Even if it's within a hundred miles, we can kill them..."
"That's right, old ghost shrouded in corpses. We have never killed three powerful warriors in the opponent's realm in one go like we did today..."
"Comfortable...hahaha..."
…
As time went by, the pursuers of the Hungarian Aviation Empire were confused!
Especially the Martial Master Realm experts among them were completely stunned.
Why did his companion die inexplicably?
There was also a follow-up army hundreds of miles away. Why was it suddenly attacked? After that, not even a ghost could be seen. I had no idea who did it...
Could it be that along the way, the Great Xia Empire had hidden many martial master realms?
But how could the Great Xia Empire still have so many Martial Masters?
They were confused!
Those Martial Master Realm experts from the Great Xia Empire suddenly appeared out of thin air every time, killed people and then disappeared suddenly...
What the hell is this bitch?
Bewildered, stunned, and also fearful...
As a result, the pursuit of the Hungarian Empire became much slower, and even the powerful warriors at the Martial Realm no longer acted as vanguards and struggled to catch up.
…
All the way south!
Nie Heng and others continued to run away.
They are now very close to the big river that separates the north from the south.
As long as you cross the river, you are back in the Daxia Empire, and you are really safe!
But just over a hundred miles away from the river, the army suddenly stopped.
"That's...his breath!"
Li Chenghui first noticed something strange, and there was a hint of worry on his seemingly calm face.
"Why is he here?"
Venerable Cunxue also noticed a certain aura and looked slightly angry: "I invited him several times, but he never agreed. Why are you here now?"
Immediately afterwards, Li Chenghui suddenly widened his eyes and said, "He...has actually reached the peak of the three realms!"
Listening and analyzing secretly, Nie Heng sighed helplessly: "We are going to kill someone again..."
Baili Yi, who had been accompanying him all the time, was immediately puzzled and asked softly: "It seems that our strong men have come to help us. Isn't this great?"
"Sometimes...the enemy is not just what can be seen on the surface..."
Nie Heng replied, and when he looked at Li Chenghui, he also saw a cold light in Li Chenghui's eyes.
In the distant valley, an old friend of the Great Xia Empire has arrived!
But this old friend may not still be that old friend!
