‘Damn that old thing, even in death he won’t let me be at peace, leaving behind such a big trap.’ She Xi cursed inwardly.

‘If it weren’t for the suppression of the national fate, this kind of blood food couldn’t have blocked my imposing aura.’ She Xi had a face full of frustration, and even though he had anticipated such a situation, he hadn’t expected that when it actually happened, it would infuriate him so much.

“…”

“I dare not, I dare not, it is still up to the High Priest to decide.”

“Not just the Snake-man, whether it be ghouls or worm walkers, I know their weaknesses. After two years, I compiled a book ‘Myriad Clan Chronicles’ of martial arts techniques specifically to defeat alien clans like yours. It’s a pity that now, apart from the Snake-man, all other alien clans have been exterminated, and I can only test it on you.”

“Impossible, the gates to You Si’s domain have never been opened, how could there be any communication between our people and the Human Clan…”

“No need, His Majesty still has uses for these Snake-men, just drive them back underground.” Although Wang Kai wanted to annihilate the Snake-men, he was rational enough to know not to disrupt the master plan.

“Chen, you scoundrel, today I will drink with your flesh and blood!” She Xi charged out with the Snake-men, with no formation, looking like a motley crew.

“High Priest, the Human Clan has started the attack on the city; what should we do?” This Snake-man looked panicked, having just lost a battle, not expecting another attack so soon.

“High Priest… maybe we should retreat, the Human Clan seems to have come prepared.” A Snake-man said dissatisfiedly.

“Under the national fate of the Great Qian Country, even your kind, possessing great powers as an alien clan, can only match me equally, which is truly… interesting.” Wang Kai’s offensive became more fierce, and a large number of scales were ripped off She Xi’s body.

“Damn it!” She Xi went to retaliate, but the opponent targeted his vital points with every move, which particularly restrained him.

“Okay, since…” She Xi had just opened his mouth to say something when he heard a Snake-man rushing over from outside.

“Hmph, seeking death!” She Xi was also a bit angered by humiliation, remembering his revered status in the Great Qian Court. Back then, those military generals didn’t even have the qualifications to enter the Court.

“Old Snake, I’m no match for you, your opponent is another.” Chen Liuhuan pulled at the reins of his horse, moving past She Xi as he parried an attack with his long spear.

“Sound the retreat.” Chen Liuhuan didn’t ask why but immediately ordered.

“Challenging, integrating Fifth Realm cultivation techniques with martial arts; this ‘Myriad Clan Chronicles’ is my masterpiece, General Chen can take a look at it; perhaps you might cross-reference.” Wang Kai wasn’t a petty person, and he gave his summarized martial arts techniques designed to kill alien races to Chen Liuhuan.

“Are you that runaway alien remnant from the Imperial City?” A calm yet slightly manic voice came through.

“Historian, when might you break through to the Sixth Realm?” On the way back, the two chatted casually.

“I’ve dissected quite a few Snake-men; do you know where Snake-men are the most fragile?” Wang Kai had barely finished speaking when his body moved like thunder, and his hands reached for a vulnerable spot at the middle of She Xi’s spine.

“I suspect there are Snake-men and Human Clan members colluding internally. Otherwise, how could the Human Clan have learned about our target?” She Xi looked grim and simply ignored the words of the Snake-man just now.

“What? Do any of you have any objections?” Seeing the state of the Snake-man leaders, She Xi couldn’t help but feel a surge of anger.

“How is it not possible, I cleared over two thousand five hundred traitors a month ago. If clan members are communicating with the outside world now, what’s so impossible about that?” She Xi immediately cut off the other’s words, currently being very stubborn. Once he was convinced of something, he generally wasn’t influenced by external forces.

“This…”

“Pursue?” Chen Liuhuan rode up and asked.

Upon seeing She Xi, Chen Liuhuan couldn’t help but smirk: “Heh, I thought you’d retreat after the last defeat, but you’ve actually encamped here; seems like you have no understanding of military strategy at all.”

Chen Liuhuan was not reserved and took his leave immediately: “In that case, I won’t delay any further. In the future, if Historian has any needs, feel free to seek me out.”

If you can’t win, you run.

At this point, what else can be done but run? I’m completely not the material to lead troops, or to be blunt, there’s simply no Snake-man who understands this.

She Xi was also infuriated by the attacking Human Clan; if it had been Emperor Qian it’d be one thing, but for a mere underling to dare offend him was intolerable.

Then he saw a middle-aged man in a blue shirt, who looked quite ordinary, but the moment She Xi saw him, it was as if he was witnessing the dismemberment of the Alien Clan.

Moreover, in his plan, there was no possibility of losing, so now he had no solution, causing everything to fall into a deadlock.

Not even half a quarter of an hour had passed, and they were still unprepared when the cries of battle grew closer.

The outcome was completely unexpected.

In this situation, Chen Liuhuan was also speechless. This group of Snake-men had truly undergone no training. Their shouts were earth-shattering, yet as the Marshal, She Xi knew nothing.

The other Snake-men looked at each other, having no choice but to follow and leave.

Now they could only retreat temporarily to the territory of You Si.

Seeing this, She Xi gritted his teeth and bellowed, “Retreat!”

She Xi was now questioning his life choices. He had just led his men to show their heads, only to be fiercely attacked by the enemy, nearly annihilated. It was quite embarrassing.

She Xi, eyes filled with anger, said, “Just blood and flesh, go, arm yourselves, today we must flay them alive.”

She Xi was also feeling the jitters. If he hadn’t dodged quickly, Wang Kai would have grabbed half his neck.

She Xi reeled back dozens of steps. Then, like a whip, a bolt of thunder flashed across. If he hadn’t retreated quickly, he would have been struck by the Thunder Whip right then and there.

The upper echelon of the Snake-man Clan naturally did not dare to provoke She Xi. If not for She Xi’s strength and the backing of the Snake Father, he would have been dealt with by the Snake-mans long ago.

Actually, the high-ranking members of the Snake-man Clan were also rather silent. In their eyes, they were supposed to be advancing triumphantly, making the Human Clan throw away their armor and flee.

They hadn’t even managed to gather a proper army; it was all done by the soldiers charging on their own, with no real command or coordination.

As this suspicion deepened, he was more certain that this major defeat was definitely caused by the remnants stirring up trouble.

So they all acted completely nonchalant, roughly meaning that whatever you say is fine.

Thus, after She Xi spoke, the other Snake-men did not talk back. Clearly, the other party wanted to use this reason to kill more of their own. Otherwise, why bring it up?

He was indeed thinking about striking back, but if he reached out, Wang Kai would dare to rip a large piece of his skin and flesh off, even if it meant getting injured himself.

He was increasingly certain that among these people, there definitely were remnants. Otherwise, how could they be so indifferent?

Wang Kai, while talking, fortified his hand with national fortune and True Qi, grabbing a layer of scales from She Xi’s neck. If it weren’t for the weakening of the national fortune of Great Qian Country, Wang Kai’s effort wouldn’t have been able to harm She Xi at all, but unfortunately, there are no ifs.

The outcome, however, followed with execution.

Otherwise, all the Snake-men would have fallen here, none able to return.

There’s no need to worry about revealing their weaknesses. Martial Arts in itself seeks continuous improvement to overcome weaknesses. Besides, Martial Arts is about the practitioner not the practice itself; the same Martial Arts can vary when practiced by different individuals.

Originally, if the first battle had been won cleanly, it would have greatly boosted the morale of the Snake-men. However, losing had serious consequences.

This statement made all the Snake-men present fall silent. In their eyes, the one month of preparation was a disaster in the Mortal World, involving capturing and executing people. They even dared not speak, for those who attempted to argue in defense were deemed accomplices.

Owing favors definitely meant they had to be repaid. Otherwise, wouldn’t it appear as taking advantage for nothing? Once he reached the Fifth Realm himself and completed his Martial Arts, he would send a copy to the other party as well.

First, they had ambushed the adversary. Now, when they thought they were pursuing a fleeing enemy, they had not expected this kind of surprise.

Although She Xi was being suppressed, the remnants of his eighth stage abilities gave him enough strength to dodge, yet he couldn’t avoid getting heavily injured.

Seeing a group of Snake-men clumsily retreating appeared rather comical.

Pursuing them also carried certain risks. Inside You Si, without the presence of Great Qian Country’s fortune, these Snake-men would regain their full strength, and by then, they would no longer be opponents.
