Chapter 134: 97, 98. Fox Immortal Shares His Heart as He Leads a Thousand Riders, Yune Escapes Trouble and Enters the Great River (Big Chapter - Subscription Request)_5

Redoubling their efforts, soon, another golden coffin emerged from the earth.

Both coffins were empty and emitted a strange heat, such that even after a long time in the cold wind, they gave off no hint of chill.

On the other hand, the Prefectural City had already assembled a thousand-man elite Iron Cavalry, including two "External Affairs Envoys" from the Shanhe Martial Arts Hall, namely ’Six-armed Old Ape’ Yuan Qianke and ’Iron Arm Gray Bear’ Hong Juguang, plus a Law Enforcement Elder from the White Camel Estate.

In addition, the Shanhe Martial Arts Hall had found a young servant girl who had already sold herself into servitude, to visualize and allow the Fox Immortal to possess her.

This combination quickly mounted their horses and left the Prefectural City with scarcely any rest, heading towards the distance.

Their mission was to seal the evil spirits.

To weaken the great catastrophe.

...

...

Song Cheng stood atop the city wall, watching the Iron Cavalry disappear into the distance.

By his side was Ling.

Ling could provide a door for the Fox Immortal, who was far away in the young servant girl’s body, to return anytime through the Visualization Method.

The Profound Level was so convenient that with just such a door, space was no issue at all.

But those thousand Iron Cavalry... could not traverse space, they could not escape back.

As for the matter of "Qi Realm warriors turning into even more terrifying Ghost Servants upon death", it was not a concern for Fox Immortal Su.

Before they left, she had already provided the "Willow Brushing Force and above" Martial Artists with a "Rapid Dissolution Technique" secret medicine.

As long as they did not die immediately, and still breathed, the secret medicine would swiftly reverse their realms, thereby avoiding the possibility of becoming dreadful Ghost Servants after death.

At that moment, the wilderness stretched to the sky, and the distant grim mountains still bore some unmelted snow.

The bone-chilling cold wind swept in, rustling the young man’s sideburns and causing Ling to shiver, stamping her little boots and rubbing her hands, with her back turned to the direction outside the city gate.

Song Cheng’s heart was still tumultuous.

There was no deception in this matter, it had all been made clear before the Iron Cavalry set out.

It was dangerous, yet it had to be done!

Someone had to do it!

Yet even so, it had to be who it had to be.

No one shirked their responsibility, and indeed, the elite even vied to go.

Leading the troops was General Yuan.

The same General Yuan who, when Song Cheng was guarding the eastern gate, had bizarrely won many battles, thus gaining confidence and experience.

General Yuan said, "You all have gone out to fight the barbarians, now it’s our turn, no one steals this opportunity. This time is my chance to become a renowned general of this era."

Song Cheng closed his eyes, reminiscing.

Ling, shivering in body and legs, said, "M’lord, the wind on the city wall is very strong."

Song Cheng looked up and murmured, "The winds blow cold..."

Ling listened for a long while, not hearing the rest, then turned her head again, facing the cutting wind to look at the cavalry that had now vanished, and asked, "M’lord, have the people left?"

Song Cheng said, "Stay a while longer."

His feelings were complex.

They were heading into a trap.

Those who enter traps must embrace the intent to die, to accept almost certain death.

Once a hundred cavalry could storm a ten-thousand man camp, but today a thousand cavalry headed towards the Ghost Tide.

He slapped a jar of fine wine, pouring it atop the city wall, and said, "I’ll wait for your triumphant return."

...

...

"Huff..."

"Huff, huff!"

Loud gasping sounds accompanied by the noise of swinging shovels and spades.

A group of people were desperately digging upstream in the river.

While Wang Tianchuan, lacking any expert’s demeanor and bearing the marks of hardship, held a River Map and examined it closely.

Money can make the devil turn the millstone; when the canal reached near Tang River, he and Gao Lin bribed other supervisors with money, then began furiously digging toward the direction of Tang River.

"Just a bit more, just a little bit more."

As Wang Tianchuan clenched his fist.

The master had already instructed him.

If there’s an opportunity, immediately connect to Tang River, then open the gates, bringing the waters together.

Once this task was completed, they could immediately return.

"Push harder!"

Gao Lin also shouted from afar, even as he himself carried a shovel and dug furiously in the riverbed.

He didn’t know what the master needed it for, but the master had taught him the Cultivation Technique, and he also knew that his master was now the esteemed "Northern Region Blade King," a high-ranking figure in Hanping Prefecture.

Whatever the master wanted him to do, he would do it, no matter if thunder struck!

Sweat and dirt mixed together.

Gao Lin exercised the Willow Brushing Force; each shovel he dug removed a lot of soil.

He exerted force again, his shovel light flashed by, hitting the soil in front of him.

Behind the soil, a fine rustling sound emerged.

"We’re through!"

"Hurry, hurry!"

The crowd eagerly continued to dig.

Then, as they saw water seeping through the mud, they hurriedly climbed ashore, and then hit the soil a few times with their shovels on the bank.

Rustle...

Rustle, rustle, rustle...

Bang!!!

The mud and water were breached by the current, and subsequently, a weird force split the mud wall, turning it into a thick spider web that completely shattered.

The canal, connecting to Tang River... was open.

Wang Tianchuan waved his hand, joyfully shouting, "Open the gates, connect!"

Soon after, the water from the other side also rushed over.

Tang River Village, Tang River...

By the riverside, unknowingly, many bizarre iron cages had piled up.

Some of these iron cages had even sunk into the water, fallen to the riverbed, swaying back and forth with the cold current...

In their swaying, they converged towards a central spot.

That spot was the only one yet to be "invaded."

But it was very small, very cramped, and it was anticipated that, if nothing unexpected happened, it would definitely be occupied by the iron cages.

Yet at that moment, as the mud wall collapsed and the water flowed out.

In that only pure land’s center, a woman’s corpse in green clothes suddenly opened her pale eyes, her form swiftly moved outwards with the water, left Tang River, and flowed into the canal, as if escaping from that Demon-Locking Tower... a monster.
