Sang Huaiyu slapped the brick wall of the city gate tower, and exclaimed in shock and disbelief, "Using illusions to deal with reality, we have no way of escaping this calamity! This was an ancient and wondrous array formation, the Nine Heavens Phoenix Dance Formation! This Feng Ning Yan actually has this kind of ability! "

Only after hearing Sang Huaiyu's explanation did Duan LiuShao realize how powerful he was.

"Nine Heavens Phoenix Dance Formation?" Duan Liushao repeated the words to himself in a low voice. Although he hadn't seen any changes to the array, he could feel a bone-chilling cold as he watched the constantly changing array. The cold was slowly seeping into his heart.

An ancient magical formation …

This woman could always surprise him. What in the world could she not know?

Such a beauty with both courage and intelligence. Not only had she been extraordinary, but she was also dressed in martial arts and armor. However, she was Duan Liushao's natural enemy and not one of the generals under her command.

When Duan Liushao recalled Feng Ningyan's devastatingly beautiful appearance and the coquettish appearance that she had occasionally displayed in his tent, he couldn't help but feel even more regretful. I, Feng Ning Yan, am actually not as heroic as she is now …

Compared to Feng Ningyan, they were just a bunch of mediocre girls, and would only annoy him.

Only this Feng Ningyan was worthy of his position as the Crown Prince's consort. She was the perfect match to support him in dominating the world …

So what if she was the Ning Nan Army's Young Marshal? So what if she was Princess Yu? It was hard to obtain a beauty, but he, Duan LiuShao, would never marry her!

Sang Huaiyu shouted into Duan Liushao's ear, "Your Highness, this Nine Heavens Phoenix Dance Formation is too formidable. We must call for reinforcements! Your Highness the Crown Prince?! "

Only now did Duan Liushao come back to his senses. However, the Southern Ning Army's battle formation had already started to transform into the shape of a phoenix tail feather. His southern army had already sunk deep into that whirlpool.

Vice Marshal Li Yuanxiong's entire body was covered in shields, and from the gaps in his shields, several scythes silently pierced out, accurately chopping off the forelegs of his warhorse.

Li Yuanxiong suddenly felt the horse beneath him fall forward, and his body fell down uncontrollably.

Before he could get up, he was surrounded by the surrounding Ning Nan soldiers, a dozen or so silver guns aimed at his body.

Shocked, he turned around and cut off the spearheads. With a loud shout, he slashed at the neck of a soldier in front of him.

He raised his hand and the blade fell. Fresh blood spurted out from the soldier's neck, dyeing his face and armor red. It also dyeing the gazes of hatred on the soldiers of the Southern Ning Army.

At this moment, someone suddenly stabbed a steel knife from behind him, directly into the unprotected area of his waist.

Li Yuanxiong snorted fiercely and turned around to slash at him.

However, he was surrounded. No matter how powerful he might be, he would not be able to withstand the siege of so many people.

The moment his broadsword fell, the countless steel swords and spears in the hands of Ning Nan Army soldiers pierced all at once, their sharp spearheads piercing into his back and his innards.

The soldiers shouted loudly and raised him up into the air …

In the middle of the battle formation, the southern army was crushed like beans thrown into a millstone.

Amidst the chaos, he saw dozens of spears holding the bloodied corpse of Vice Marshal Li Yuanxiong high up in the air.

Li Yuanxiong, who was as brave as a tiger just a moment ago, was now hanging with his arms and legs weak. His head was resting on the ground and his bell-like eyes were still staring angrily, unwilling to close.

Duan Liushao shouted loudly and pounced on the city walls. He shouted hoarsely, "Vice Marshal Li!"

However, Li Yuanxiong could no longer hear his voice.

Sang Huaiyu looked to the side and fought back her tears.

Even Feng Ningyan on the high platform slowly turned her back, unable to bear to watch the tragic scene below.

The Nine Heavens Phoenix Dance Formation was still moving quickly.

The southern soldiers who were shouting "avenge Vice Commander Li" rushed into the battle formation fearlessly. They were then swept up within and killed …

Duan Liushao staggered back a step and grabbed Jiang Chongming's collar, "Quick! Retreat! "Ming Jin, retreat!"

He saw that his soldiers were courting death under this strange formation, so how could he continue to stubbornly attack? He yelled hysterically for Jiang Chongming.

The follow-up troops of the Southern Wilderness approached aggressively, but when they retreated, they lost their helmets and their armor; they were battered and exhausted.

When most of them had returned to the city gates, the massive gates once more rumbled shut.

In the blink of an eye, the Southern Ning Army once again turned into a four-sided formation. The only difference was that this time, they were both standing on the corpses of the Southern Army.

The front lines of the Southern Wilderness had been completely devoured, but the city walls suddenly became quiet.

Duan Liushao leaned against the city wall as he slowly sat on the ground. For a long time, he was unable to shake off the shock and fear that the Nine Heavens Phoenix Dance Formation gave him.

Sang Huaiyu knew that Duan Liushao had suffered a heavy blow and upon seeing how badly Li Yuanxiong had died, she could not help but softly say, "Crown Prince, let's go back to the camp and rest up."

Duan Liushao woodenly shook his head. "I lost … I've lost... "He lost to Feng Ningyan …"

At this moment, he was both admiring and fearful of Feng Ningyan, liking her and not knowing how to approach her. His heart was at odds with her.

"We haven't lost yet!" Jiang Chongming said with a pained heart, "Your Highness, the South Yong Pass is still in our hands. Feng Ning Yan can only use one formation, and even if the vanguard camp is damaged, she won't be able to move the South Yong Pass! You must be calm! "

However, Duan Liushao had met an opponent like Feng Ning Yan in his first battle, how could he be calm?

However, Jiang Chongming was afraid that the crown prince would lose his will to fight, so he only tried to persuade him.

When Duan Liushao thought of Li Yuanxiong's death, he blamed himself. He just buried his head and did not say a word.

Sang Huaiyu raised her hand and silently interrupted Jiang Chongming, signalling for Duan Liushao to calm down.

However, even though the city gates were tightly shut and the Southern Ning Army wouldn't be able to attack in a short period of time, there was no way that Feng Ningyan would give Duan Liusao a chance to calm down and catch his breath.

She wanted to strike the iron while it was hot and strike the terrified Southern Wilderness soldiers in one blow.

The army marched on for a long distance before Feng Ningyan and Li Yao finally arrived at the front of the army.

She held the Phoenix Cry that was passed down in her family and yelled, "You with the surname Duan, close the city gates and shrink your head! What ability do you have to do this? Do you dare to come down and fight to the death with me!?"

When Duan Liushao heard Feng Ning Yan's voice, he couldn't help but be startled. He couldn't tell if it was due to shock or the beating of his heart, but he immediately stood up and looked towards the source of the sound.

Their gazes intersected in the air like sharp swords, as if they were shooting out ten thousand kilograms of thunder and lightning. No one backed down, as if it was a silent contest.

This exchange of gazes made the flame in Duan Liushao's heart leap up.

He could not concede, he could not be defeated by a single moment of defeat, or else he would be defeated by her, and he would never be able to think of obtaining her, much less the Great Nation!

Li Yao knew that Duan Liushao was young and hot-tempered, easily impulsive. Feng Ning Yan was purposely provoking him, so he signaled the soldiers to shout in unison, "You cowardly turtle, Duan Liushao!" Kobold Advisor Sang Huanyu! "

When Duan Liushao heard the insults that came from all directions, he was so angry that he grabbed the Coiling Dragon Moonshatter Saber.
