In an instant, under the city gate tower, the door was completely opened. A few guards in black light clothing jumped out with a bang. However, without a single word, he rushed towards the battle circle. When the imperial guards saw that he had a team of people supporting him from behind, they became even more ruthless and started to fight even harder.

Suddenly, when the Soul at the top of the city gate tower saw this, he issued a command and leaped from the top of the city gate tower, transforming into a sharp arrow that shot straight towards Lan Cang.

"Hmph, you came at the right time." Lan Cang also kicked off from the horse's back and jumped up. Then, he brandished the broadsword in his hand and waved it in the air.

Bang! Bang! The first time the two of them fought, they were actually on par with each other. This allowed Lan Cang to clearly understand the strength of the other. This person's martial arts were actually not the slightest bit inferior to Zi Yuan's. Thinking of this, Lan Cang's expression turned serious.

"Blue Sky?" The Soul spoke.

"That's me."

"Today, I only hope for a pleasant battle, but you dare to come with me!" After the Soul said this, it ignored Lan Cang and directly dashed towards the Willow Forest. He was sure that Lan Cang would come. Indeed, after Lan Cang saw Lei Zhen, he immediately turned into a streak of light and charged towards the Soul.

Suddenly, the Soul turned around and thrusted a sword back at Lan Cang. With a twist of his body, Lan Cang waved his long blade and the two of them began to fight. In the center of the battlefield, the black-clothed warriors were actually this fierce.

"General Li Zhen, I'm afraid these people are experts who were personally groomed by Murong Xiu." Liu Hun also saw how brave and fierce these people were. Even there were a few bloody wounds on his body.

"General Liu, are you alright?" When Li Zhen saw that there were a few more wounds on Liu Hun's body, he was slightly worried for a moment.

"I'm fine. In this situation, I'm afraid we'll lose too many brothers." Liu Hun started to speak worriedly.

"In your opinion, how should we set up the formation?" After Li Zhen had killed one of the imperial guards, he had arrived beside Liu Hun. At this moment, the two of them had their backs to each other. It was evident that they were somewhat fearful of these black clothed martial artists.

"There are two rows of eagle magic formations. The one above and the one below directly attack them from the bottom, dispersing their collective power. I can see that their offensive arts have evolved from a combination of these techniques." When Liu Hun saw that these people were cooperating with each other, the two of them working together definitely wouldn't be as simple as one plus one.

"Indeed, I can see it too. Good!" Your main right side is my main left side. " Li Zhen also did as he was told, followed by a loud roar.

"Brothers, follow me." After which, he began to attack these people from the north side of the city gate tower. It was as Liu Hun had said, these people were indeed practising a combination technique and with the two of them working together, they were actually equivalent to an expert level individual. As long as they were separated, they could break through their martial arts routine.

Good! Good job! Haha! I didn't think that Mu Rong Xiu would have such a great appearance!" At this moment, Lan Cang's fighting spirit had also risen because of Liu Hun's repeated attacks. The Long Blade pointed out with an unspeakable power and Soul followed up with a loud shout.

"As expected of the God of War of the Northern Yue." As the Soul spoke, the long sword in his hand turned into a sea of stars, forming a thousand ripples. Then, with a leap, it turned into a spiral and charged towards Lan Cang, who knew that this sword was not to be underestimated.

Boom!" The battle between the two had actually turned into a chaotic wave that broke apart the willow tree beside them. As Lan Cang retreated a step, a mouthful of blood suddenly spurted out from his chest. Lan Cang also retreated a few steps, and since his soul power wasn't as strong as Lan Cang's, he was able to rely on his own martial arts to attack. At this moment, Lan Cang also felt that this person's martial arts cultivation was different from Murong Xiu's; Murong Xiu's martial arts were too sinister, and this person was filled with a masculine aura.

"Haha, good! If I can kill you today, you don't have to work so hard for Murong Xiu on the path to the Yellow Springs." The enemy was the enemy. Without further ado, Lan Cang's thoughts flashed as he charged towards the Soul. The Soul could only fight bitterly.

Finally, Murong Xiu was able to bring his troops here. However, the moment he arrived, he discovered that smoke was rising from all directions. It had actually been broken by Lan Cang.

"Marshal, this place has been breached." At this moment, a general came over and said in grief. He was obviously unwilling to give up. Wasn't the reason why he chased after them all the way to prevent this from happening?

"Nonsense, do you think I'm blind? Can't I see it?" Mu Rong Xiu couldn't hold it in any longer and shouted angrily at the general.

"Lan Cang, when I return, I will definitely grind your bones into ashes!" Mu Rong Xiu's gaze turned cold, but he gritted his teeth as he spoke.

"Everyone, hurry up!" "Let's go!" Murong Xiu quickly sprinted towards the second city. At this moment, Murong Xiu's only thought was that the second city hadn't been broken through, but it was clear that Murong Xiu was destined to be disappointed.

The reason why Murong Xiu was so furious was because these cities would be very troublesome if he wanted to send more troops to guard them. Judging from the situation, the people inside the cities were still around, so they weren't affected at all. It was obvious that Lan Cang did his job appropriately, but none of the young women and children were injured, so Murong Xiu became even more anxious as he thought about this.

Just as Murong Xiu arrived at Whirlwind City, a man with a cloth wrapped around his head sped towards the direction of Mu Rong Xiu. He was even a step ahead of him as he rode his horse with all his might.

At this moment, the battle between Soul and Lan Cang was gradually coming to an end. Soul wielded his sword with one hand as he stabbed it into the ground. His legs were already trembling slightly.

"You no longer have any leeway to fight back. I'll give you a chance. Kill yourself." As he looked at the indelible fighting spirit in Soul's eyes, he felt a surge of love for this talent. He knew that a person like Soul wouldn't be able to be persuaded by someone like Murong Xiu, who had followed his wishes since he was young.

"Hmph. You want me to kill myself? Take this final move of mine. If you take it, I will kill myself." At this moment, Soul's eyes turned a little cold. If he wasn't forced into this situation, Soul was unwilling to do so. At this moment, a silver grey light appeared in Soul's eyes. If Zi Yuan were here, she would have definitely discovered that there was a dark light in Murong Xiu's body. However, the light in Soul's eyes wasn't that intense compared to Murong Xiu's.

Lan Cang naturally noticed the change in Soul's body and secretly became vigilant. This was probably a killing move. Suddenly, the Soul seemed to have recovered all of its strength. It stood up straight like this, and there was no longer any trace of lifelessness on its body. Suddenly, a figure moved the sword as fast as lightning. It was the same Star Sea Waves as before, but it was several times more violent than the last time.

When he saw that the astral sea was about to catch up, he knew that he could no longer avoid it. In an instant, the longblade in his hand broke into two pieces, and the tail of the blade directly turned into a sharp arrow that shot towards the Soul. Then, the astral ripple smashed onto the tail of the blade.

With a boom, it exploded and turned into a fog that filled the sky. At this moment, Lan Cang resolutely aimed the tip of the blade at Soul's chest. In an instant, he used the blade as a sword and viciously threw it out.

"Pfft!" "Pfft!" When the broken blade stabbed into Soul's chest, it unexpectedly went through him in an instant. In that instant, a hint of a smile surfaced in his eyes, as if he had obtained his freedom. Then, he slowly laid down.

"A hero, but not a thief." At this moment, it was almost the end of the city and there were only a small number of black clothed warriors left. When Li Zhen saw that Lan Cang had arrived, his body flashed as he retreated from the center of the battle and ran to the side of Lan Cang.

"Marshal, our army has suffered serious damage this time." Li Zhen sighed in grief.

"To be able to eliminate all of these black clothed men is already an extremely good battle achievement. These people were personally raised by Murong Xiu, so naturally, they couldn't be compared to the rest of the soldiers." Lan Cang looked at the battle that was about to end. At this moment, the sky had already turned white. The battle had unexpectedly lasted from night until day time. Just as Lan Cang was about to speak, a burly man suddenly rushed over.

"Who is it!" Li Zhen shouted.

"It doesn't matter. We're on the same side."

"Marshal, I'm afraid Murong Xiu will be coming soon!" The man was the man wrapped in a cloth back in Whirlpool City.

"Alright, I understand." When Lan Cang heard this, his eyes narrowed for a moment before he continued.

"Li Zhen, finish this quickly, and leave." Cang Lan shouted. After which, he also charged into the battle.

With Lan Cang's addition, the last few dozen black clad warriors were unable to overcome the advantage of numbers even after they had fought to their deaths. In this battle, there were too many casualties for Lan Cang. The thirty thousand men and horses he had brought with him only had a bit more than ten thousand.

"Marshal, should we rush in now?" Li Zhen watched as the rest of the city was completely annihilated by his own side. He looked towards the interior of the city with a fanatical expression on his face.

"Soldiers, hear my orders! Quickly follow me out of here!" Remember not to keep fighting. "

"What?" Marshal, this is a golden opportunity. " Liu Hun also said as he looked at Lan Cang with disbelief.

"Stop nagging, hurry up and leave!" "Li Zhen, throw a fire into the city." Lan Cang didn't want to say anything, but his heart began to tense up.

"Yes, Marshal." Although Li Zhen did not understand what was going on, he still obeyed the command of the marshal and ignited a huge fire at the city gates. A smile appeared on Lan Cang's face as he looked at the fire.

"Brothers, we won this battle, but we can't break through their city yet. Let's return home." As soon as Lan Cang finished his last sentence, these men began to cry. Then he roared.

"Go home! "Go home!"
