My Wife is A Sword God

Chapter 667: Prince Luo's Military Rebellion

Father Qin handed the note to Qin Feng. Upon seeing it, Qin Feng immediately realized that the enemy had deliberately diverted the forces of Prince Luo City. Their real target was actually Prince Luo City!

However, there was one thing that Qin Feng couldn’t understand. If the enemy’s goal was to destroy the Dragon Vein in the Southern Domain, there was no need to target Prince Luo City. After all, even though the military strength in Prince Luo City was greatly reduced at the moment, there were still many experts secretly guarding Prince Luo. 

Why would those masked individuals want to bite into such a tough bone?

“Unless… those people attacking Heavenly City don’t just want to seize the Dragon Vein and release Yin Qi, they also have some other purpose.”

The map of the Southern Domain manifested in Qin Feng’s mind. He outlined the three Heavenly Cities that had been attacked before and the Heavenly City that would be attacked tonight, then connected them in a line. A pattern appeared, resembling a dragon or a snake!

And if Prince Luo City was connected to them, it would be at the forefront!

Qin Feng once again thought about the one-eyed candle dragon he had seen in his dream. He couldn’t help but feel that there was a connection between the two.

His sense of unease grew stronger. Qin Feng spoke up, “Father, if this is the case, shouldn’t we inform General Lie immediately, turn back to Prince Luo City, and not let the enemy succeed?”

Regardless of the enemy’s true intentions, Prince Luo City was as important to the Southern Domain as the Imperial City was to the Great Qian. 

If Prince Luo City fell, it would undoubtedly deal a heavy blow to the morale of the soldiers in the Southern Domain and the Demon Slaying Department, which would be extremely detrimental to the upcoming major battle!

Father Qin naturally understood the stakes and nodded.

Just as Qin Feng was about to reveal his identity and report to General Lie Ying, they saw the Duke’s Army suddenly come to a halt.

“What’s going on?” Qin Feng and the others looked at each other in confusion.

They heard the commander on horseback issuing an order, “General Lie has ordered an immediate return to Prince Luo City. There must be no delay!”

Upon hearing this military order, the accompanying commander of Prince Luo’s army widened his eyes, “General Lie, what do you mean? Wucheng is in imminent danger, are you going to disregard the safety of the city’s people?”

Lie Ying glanced to the side, snorted coldly, and said, “I’ve been fighting all my life, and the thing I hate most is when our own people fight each other.”

The commander of the Prince Luo Army’s expression changed when he heard this. Could it be that Lie Ying had already figured out the plan of Prince Luo and the young lord?

No, it couldn’t be. Although the Duke’s Army was famous within the Great Qian, General Lie Ying was known to be a reckless man who knew nothing about military strategy. How could he have the insight to see through the plans of Prince Luo and the young lord?

I must have misunderstood.

With this in mind, the commander calmed down and frowned, “General Lie, what do you mean?”

Lie Ying shouted angrily, “At this moment, you still want to play games with me? If the Heavenly Tower National Teacher hadn’t given me a secret plan in advance, I would have been fooled by you and Prince Luo!”

“Have you and those scoundrels already set up an ambush near Wucheng?”

The commander trembled at this statement. It turned out that the Heavenly Tower National Teacher had seen through everything with his divine foresight!

He gritted his teeth, and his eyes flashed with a fierce light.

Clang!

The long knife at his waist was instantly drawn and aimed at Lie Ying’s neck. His move was decisive and ruthless, clearly intending to take Lie Ying’s life!

The soldiers of the Military War Duke’s Army shouted, “General, be careful!”

Lie Ying’s eyes widened. He lifted the handle of his long knife with his right hand and swung it effortlessly, sending the commander of Prince Luo’s army flying off his horse along with his sword!

The middle-aged commander rolled on the ground several times to dissipate the remaining power, then he looked at his palm and saw it split open with blood flowing out.

With just one exchange, the difference in skill was obvious. Despite being a fourth rank warrior, he was no match for Lie Ying’s single move!

When he looked around, he saw the angry glances of the soldiers of the Duke’s Military War Army.

Since their plan had been exposed, they could only resort to desperate measures!

The commander shouted, “Attack!”

At his command, the soldiers of Prince Luo’s army, who had once been allies, turned hostile and faced the Duke’s Military War Army with drawn swords!

The battle was about to begin!

The clash of swords and the shouts of the combatants quickly echoed across the night sky!

The sounds of battle soon reached the back of the formation.

Qin Feng and the others couldn’t believe what they were hearing, but the reality was right in front of them, forcing them to accept it.

“Big Brother, why would Prince Luo’s army attack the Military War Duke’s army?” Qin An asked in surprise.

Qin Feng and Father Qin exchanged glances. Between the actions of Prince Luo’s army and the words on the note that mentioned “luring the tiger away from the mountain”, a bizarre fact seemed to be staring them in the face.

Prince Luo was allied with those who had invaded the Heavenly Cities, and in this disaster in the Southern Domain, Prince Luo was probably one of the masterminds behind it!

Suddenly, Qin Feng thought of Luo Yu, whom he had crossed paths with a few times. . Does that gentle guy know these things? 

With this in mind, Qin Feng’s expression became incredibly complex.

Blood was being spilled on the battlefield, and the battle cries were echoing incessantly.

As the acknowledged second strongest force in Great Qian, how could the Military War Duke’s Army be ordinary?

Coupled with the covert support of Qin Feng and his companions, the battle situation became one-sided in just one stick of incense. 

Under Lie Ying’s relentless attacks, the commander of Prince Luo’s army was forced to retreat, his body covered in bloodstains.

At this point, he could only put aside his last concerns. Seizing the opportunity in the midst of the chaos, he shouted, “Take the divine medicine!”

Upon hearing this command, the commanders of Prince Luo’s army all grimaced. They took out a phial from their robes and swallowed a golden pill.

A terrifying qi erupted from their bodies, and in an instant, their cultivation levels were forcibly raised by one level!

Roar!

Like the roar of a dying beast, the soldiers of Prince Luo’s army suddenly launched a fierce counterattack, killing several enemy soldiers in the blink of an eye!

Even Lie Ying, who had the upper hand, suffered a wound on his chest from their sudden attack!

“What kind of pill is this? It has such power!” the soldiers shouted in shock.

Lie Ying hastily shouted, “Soldiers below the sixth rank, retreat immediately! Do not engage them!”

In the blink of an eye, Prince Luo’s powerful soldiers had rushed into the middle of the Duke’s army like a tiger among sheep.

Their eyes were bloodshot, their blood vessels were pulsating, and they were whimpering as if they had lost their senses, resembling wild beasts!

The soldiers with lesser strength were no match for them!

However, at this critical moment, three figures rushed into the fray.

A white light barrier instantly lit up, enveloping the Military War Duke’s army, allowing them to withstand the fierce onslaught of swords and spears without breaking through the white barrier!

There was also an unstoppable blade aura that carried the momentum of breaking the enemy’s formation, pouring down on the soldiers of Prince Luo who had ingested the divine medicine and knocking them with a single blow!

But the most surprising thing was the mysterious figure in black robes with a white mask. With a casual wave of his hand, he sent the commander who had injured General Lie flying, and the blade in his hand snapped in two with a single blow!

Seeing the crisis averted, Qin Feng breathed a sigh of relief, but when he looked at his father, he couldn’t help but show a strange expression.

When did his father manage to change his clothes in such a dire situation?
