Chapter 978: Sound

Chapter 978: SoundBlood splattered.

Screams and yell ensued, yet Nan Luo couldn't hear anything. His body moved rapidly to clear the soldiers around him.

Slash! Slash! Slash!

The sword slashed through the armor and the meat as several soldiers of Zhang Xu Kingdom's side fell down. Nan Luo didn't stop there and kept on killing everyone around him.

He saw his soldiers had arrived and the corner of his mouth lifted.

"CHARGE INSIDE!"

"YES!" Gét latest novel chapters on nov(e)lbj/n(.)c/om

Xiao Yan led the soldiers to break into the path that Nan Luo had opened. The small path soon become wider with more and more soldiers broke into the lines.

They moved as fast as possible, killing whoever blocked their way.

As they entered deeper, Nan Luo noticed that their path was so dusty. The dust blocked their vision and seemed as if it was fog. After battling during winter for so long where there was barely any dust, it was a strange phenomenon.

The snow had melted.

So the ground should be still fairly damp, shouldn't it?

How come this area was so sandy?

*Dong*

The faint sound of gong startled Nan Luo. He looked to the front and noticed that the soldiers number grew scarcer. His eyes narrowed as he guessed that this must be a trap that they had prepared for the soldiers who were stationed to attack this area.

"Xiao Yan, Qiu Xian, regroup!"

"Yes!"

Both Xiao Yan and Qiu Xian quickly led the soldiers under them towards Nan Luo's voice. They couldn't see clearly after they had started the fierce battle, so they had to rely on their other senses.

*Dong*

*Dong*

Nan Luo could faintly hear the sound of the gong from the other sides. He frowned and recalled that Nan Hua said to him before that when one's senses were blocked, they had to rely on the other senses.

And his grandfather had also reminded him that they had to remember that if one of their senses couldn't be trusted, they shouldn't listen. War is about battle of deception and tricks. There was no way the opponent wouldn't try whatever tricks they have under their sleeve to make sure that they could win the battle.

And both Zhang Xu Kingdom and Fei Yang Kingdom were located more to the south. The winter snow could barely cover the ground, so when it melt, it would quickly disappear. This also allowed the enemy to set up such a trap when they were not prepared.

The changes of terrain would definitely catch anyone off guard.

"Xiao Yan, Qiu Xian, you lead them to march forward!"

"Young Commander Nan!"

Swish!

Nan Luo dashed forward. He could see that several of the soldiers were aiming their arrows towards him, but he was not afraid.

Swish! Swish!

Evading most of the arrows, Nan Luo raised his sword and parried one of them. He had already trained to evade Nan Hua's insane attack and Feng Ao Kuai's barrage of arrows many times in the past. This was nothing to him.

Soon, Nan Luo arrived in front of the soldiers.

"Kill hi....Gah!"

The archers were scattered as Nan Luo raised his sword and smashed it against them.

Slash! Slash! Slash!

In but a moment, dozens of soldiers were already killed in his hands.

They were mostly archers, which made their close combat strength a bit lacking. And Nan Luo was using that fact to disturb their shooting and killed most of them.

"Do you really think we'll let you off easily?" the commander ran towards Nan Luo, brandishing his own sword in the process.

Nan Luo narrowed his eyes and sidestepped to the side. He lowered his center of gravity then swung his sword against the commander.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

"UOoooooooo!"

The shouts and eager voices made Nan Luo's eyes lit up. His soldiers had finally arrived here, so Nan Luo also attacked fiercely.

"You..."

Slash!

Twisting his body to the side, Nan Luo effectively counterattacked and killed the commander. He raised his sword towards the soldiers from Zhang Xu Kingdom. "Kill them all!"

"YES!"

The soldiers followed his lead and began their massacre towards the archers around them. At the same time, the reinforcement from the infantry arrived and Nan Luo quickly split the soldiers to deal with them.

The battle had just begun.
