Chapter 204.1

Elder Qian Yuan observed the terrain carefully and then approached a small stone mountain that seemed to pierce the sky, saying, This should be the place! His Majesty said that if we combine our strength and destroy this stone mountain, then a landslide will occur on the Luofeng Highway 30 li away, burying the Great Luo army!

Elder Lai looked at the small stone mountain, only seventy feet high, and said, Will it really collapse? I feel a bit doubtful!

Elder Qian sighed, I dont know either! But since its His Majestys command, well just follow it!

The other Beggar Sect elders nodded in agreement: Thats true!

Then, they secretly lay in ambush, quietly waiting for the Great Luo army.

About two hours later, one of the elders became excited: Theyre coming, the Great Luo army is coming!

They all looked into the distance and saw a large force slowly approaching.

They were carrying the Great Luo banners, wearing the distinctive armor of the Great Luo Dynasty, and loaded with food and other treasures like gold and silver. They returned triumphantly.

Elder Qian said calmly, Everyone, be ready. When the Great Luo army gets close, well strike the stone mountain and ensure they cant return!

Okay! everyone responded in unison, continuing to wait patiently.

Meanwhile, the Great Luo army continued its majestic advance.

In the middle of the troops, there was a general wearing silver-white armor with a square face and a tall and mighty stature. His name was Li Sifang, an Innate Astral Qi level warrior.

He was experienced in battle, powerful, and extremely loyal, which is why the Great Luo Emperor appointed him as the Marshal for this northern expedition.

But at this moment, he glanced at the surrounding mountains and frowned deeply.

The Left General, concerned, asked, Marshal, whats wrong? Are you feeling unwell?

Thats not it! With my cultivation, how could I be plagued by common illness?Updated from novelbIn.(c)om

Marshal Li exhaled and continued to survey the surroundings, saying, I dont know why, but I have a bad feeling. Everyone, be on high alert for an ambush!

An ambush? The Left General was taken aback.

He also looked around and said, Marshal, youre worrying over nothing! Look at this place, its all open ground and nothing is hidden! Even if there are high mountains and forests, they are far from the main road! How could the enemy ambush us?

Marshal Lis expression remained serious: I dont know either, but I trust my instincts! In any case, its better to be cautious! Pass the order, tell everyone to be on high alert!

Yes, Marshal!

The Left General immediately shouted, The Marshal commands: This place might be dangerous, be on high alert and watch out for ambushes!

The command was swiftly relayed throughout the entire army.

The Marshal commands! This place might be dangerous, be on high alert and watch out for ambushes!

Then, each soldier picked up their swords or spears, and those on the outer formation also raised their shields, advancing with great vigilance.

In addition, numerous scouts were dispatched to investigate the surroundings.

The elders of the Beggar Sect watching from a distance were taken aback.

Putting the entire army on high alert? Could it be that Li Sifang has discovered us?

Its unlikely that he has discovered us, given how well weve hidden ourselves! Its probably just intuition. Strong individuals have intuition, and for a general who has spent years leading troops in battle and hovering between life and death like him, his intuition is even sharper!

Thats true! It seems Li Sifang really has some skills, no wonder he is highly valued by the Great Luo Emperor!

We should not act rashly; lets just wait and see!

I wonder if His Majestys plan will work?

This is dangerous!

The horses spooked and ran wildly, injuring many people.

Marshal Li bellowed, Its just an ordinary earth dragon turning over, everyone stay calm! Quickly get a hold of your horses and dont let them run wild!

But just then, with a thunderous crash, the smooth road suddenly broke into several pieces and then plummeted downwards.

The soldiers on the road couldnt dodge in time and fell even faster.

Help, Im falling!

Someone give me a hand!

I dont want to die, pull me up!

Neigh~~

The cries of the soldiers and the horses merged into a tragic chorus.

Marshal Li, witnessing this horrific scene, was furious and roared, Save them! Quickly save them!

However, with his limited strength, how many could he save?

He could only watch helplessly as the soldiers he led fell one group after another.

At this time, the land around the road also began to collapse, swallowing everything in its path.

Marshal Li watched as his once mighty army disappeared and let out a mournful roar, No!!!

After a short period, everything settled down.

The once grand Luofeng Highway was gone, replaced by a huge and bottomless pit, burying countless people.

Only Marshal Li and a few exceptionally strong generals managed to escape.

But how many of them were there?

In the distance, the elders of the Beggar Sect stared at the enormous pit with wide eyes, trembling.

Goodness! A million soldiers gone just like that?

We only destroyed a small stone mountain here, and yet

Its too horrifying, too frightening! Ive never killed so many people in my life!

With so many soldiers gone the Great Luo Dynasty is in trouble!

Our plan has succeeded! Lets go back and report the good news to His Majesty!

His Majesty will surely reward us handsomely, hehe!

The elders of the Beggar Sect left with a profound sense of shock.
