If the Hundred Leaf Qin Clan also had an elite warrior at the Profound Void Martial Stage, then for this battle, the clan would have the capital they need to survive
Just as Qin Wushuang was about to speak, that guy with the iron tower-like figure glared at Qin Wushuang with a pair of sharp eyes. Suddenly, he said: “Young man, I mostly believe your claims about being an offspring of the Qin Clan. However, to convince the entire Hundred Leaf Qin Clan, you must bring out a much more persuasive evidence.”
Qin Wushuang raised his hand and threw out the identity plate. That guy with the iron tower-like figure immediately caught it. When he fixed his gaze on it, his expression changed. Next, he looked at Qin Wushuang with completely different expression.
This identity jade plate was the one left by Qin Yu, ancestor of the Eastwood Qin Clan. It was equivalent to the identity plate of those Core disciples at the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan.
Thus, of course this forthright guy had recognized it. He could not help by be shocked at this jaded plate.
“Qin Clan of the Heavenly Emperor Mountain?” There were some disbelief in his eyes.
“Don’t misunderstand, this is the Qin identity jade plate left by my ancestor.”
Finally, Qin Wushuang’s explanation allowed the other party to regain his senses. That guy with the iron tower-like figure laughed and patted his chest: “Like your two friends, I am also part of the Beast Clan, ha ha. Initially, I came to this Duck Beak Mountain to test out the waters. I didn’t expect that it would turn out to be a lone army. I made the move because I thought I could take it. Ha ha, it’s all thanks to you guys hiding among the enemies. Or else, it would be difficult to kill them cleanly. Too bad I let that Su escaped!”
“Come come come, children, come and meet them.” That guy with the iron tower-like figure waved his hand and his three children gathered. After shape refinement, these three guys looked almost exactly the same figure. It was easy to recognize them as three brothers.
That guy with the iron tower-like figure said: “Qin bro, you can call me Tie Hong. These three are my children. In the Refined Void Martial Stage, their combat power is the best!”
Qin Wushuang said with a smile: “I’ve already learned about it. If it wasn’t for the tyrannical power of these three senior Brothers, I am afraid the battle would not have been over with three people restraining five enemy warriors at the Refined Void Martial Stage.”
That Tie Hong was extremely excited as he nodded: “That’s right! Qin, the battle has already started at the Hundred Leaf Qin Castle, we should go together! With our mighty group, we can also catch them off guard!”
Qin Wushuang said after a moment of silence: “Senior Tie Hong, you guys should head back first to aid them. I plan to remain undercover on the enemy’s side.”
“With this side defeated, are you not afraid the enemy would become suspicious of you?” There were traces of concern in Tie Hong’s tone. Apparently, he did not approve of Qin Wushuang’s plan to stay undercover.
However, Qin Wushuang was rather persistent: “Nothing ventured, nothing gained. Although General Manager Su’s team has suffered an almost total annihilation, Commander Chen still has large group of elite warriors. They still hold the advantage regarding their total power.”
“Besides General Manager Su, there is one Profound Void Martial Stage warrior and five Transformation Void Martial Stage warriors. There are even a dozen people at the Refined Void Martial Stage. Senior Tie Hong, you should hurry back to assist them and report the exact detail regarding their strength. Know yourself and know your enemy and we can achieve victory in every battle.”
When Qin Wushuang said here, he turned around to speak to Bao Bao: “Third, you will return with Senior Tie Hong to the castle and be in charge of communications.”
Bao Bao said with hesitation: “Boss, then you…”
“Don’t worry about me. When I return with Second, for a while, they will not feel any suspicion. As long as I can mislead them with some false information, I will be able to make them suffer heavy loss!”
Excited lights also emerged in the eyes of Tie Hong as he nodded: “If we can coordinate inside and outside offensives, perhaps we can give them a great surprise! As long as we can destroy a portion of the enemy’s elite warriors, we will have the opportunity to reduce the casualty of this war to the minimum and achieve an easy win!”
Qin Wushuang cupped his hand into a fist: “Please hurry and go back, Senior Tie Hong. Please await my communication at any moment.”
“Ok, Qin, I will wait for your good news!”
Bao Bao received instructions and returned with Tie Hong. At this moment, outside the Qin castle, the other three General Managers had already led their teams to start forcefully attacking the fortress of the Qin Clan.
Initially, they planned to launch a surprise attack. They never expected that the Hundred Leaf Qin Clan had already made all preparations and was waiting for their attacks.
Since the Hundred Leaf Qin Clan was prepared, naturally, their sneak attack plan had been rendered void.
When Tie Hong and his vigorous team had returned, instantly, the pressure was greatly reduced on the Hundred Leaf Qin Clan. It was equivalent to having three Transformation Void Martial Stage warrior. The number of elite warriors at the Refined Void Martial Stage had also reached nine.
This did not even include Bao Bao, the hidden figure.
Their oppressive attack plan had been obstructed. Indeed, the three General Managers realized that the defense of the Hundred Leaf Qin Clan had far surpassed their imaginations. Especially the formation set up outside the Hundred Leaf Qin Clan fortress that had been proven to greatly weaken their power. Outside that fortress, an elite warrior at the Transformation Void Martial Stage found that it was three to five times more difficult to ride a sword in the sky.
Although these guys were not veterans of hundred battles, they knew immediately that some kind of gravity formation had been set up around the fortress.
This gravity formation was a type of earth attribute technique. Such formation could be either in large or small scale. If used on individuals, perhaps it would be a simple “Gravitational Technique.” However, if it was set up as a formation, it could be a boundless and powerful formation.
With the formation initiated above the sky of the fortress, it had instantly and greatly reduced the strength of those Transformation Void Martial Stage warriors who used to hold an advantage in the sky. The most terrifying part was that inside the Hundred Leaf Qin castle, they could still ride in the sky as they were not bound by the restraints of the formation. Thus, even if the enemies were to break through the formation recklessly and entered the castle, they would get struck by them!
Upon not achieving anything, the three General Managers immediately acted per the situation to order the cessation of attacks. They retreated hundreds of miles and set up camp. Next, they would await for Commander Chen’s next orders.
That Commander Chen Sen was a top-tier elite warrior at the Profound Void Martial Stage in the Orderly Mountain prefecture. However, this time, he had met his match. Qin Sheng, the Ninth Great Uncle of the Hundred Leaf Qin Clan was an extremely tyrannical elite warrior among those in the Profound Void Martial Stage. Despite him being unable to enter the Perfect Void Martial Stage after a few decades of solitary training, he would still rarely meet people on his par at this stage.
Thus, after engaging in battle with that Chen Sen, no one had acquired the upper hand. This battle had been fought from night to the break of dawn. Then, it had fought from dawn to noon. Still, the outcome of the battle was undecided.
Initially, Qin Sheng thought that he would have a greater chance of victory at the level of the Profound Void Martial Stage. Unexpectedly, although this Chen Sen had only emerged in recent decades, his skill was solid! He could not seize any advantages.
With the battle lingering, Qin Sheng had thoughts of stopping the battle as he lingered on the general situation of the Hundred Leaf Qin Clan. Coincidentally, that Chen Sen also shared the same thought as Qin Sheng for he knew that today he could not win against this elite Qin warrior who had appeared from nowhere. He also planned to take a step back and make other plans.
With these thoughts, both parties unleashed a few testing moves and retreated with mutual understanding.
…
When Chen Sen returned to the camp, those three General Managers all approached him. His own four trusted aides also came up.
“Commander Chen, how did it go?”
Chen Sen waved his hand: “Let’s talk inside the tent.”
Regarding the battle situation, those three General Managers all talked about the details of the battlefield. After hearing them, that Chen Sen spoke with a cautious tone: “This time, not only did we underestimate the strength of the Hundred Leaf Qin Clan, we also underestimated their judgment. Clearly, our first strategy was seen through. The Hundred Leaf Qin Clan had already made arrangements. Or else, it would be unreasonable to not be able to take down even a single fortress!”
“Commander Chen, it was the fault of that gravity formation placed before the three major fortress. This gravitational field prevented those of us at the Transformation Void Martial Stage from performing our skills. And their own Transformation warriors inside were not influenced at all and only waited at their ease for the exhausted enemy. Thus, we did not dare to charge in.”
Chen Sen said in a low voice: “For sure the Hundred Leaf Qin Clan have some evil tricks! It was the right thing to do to not go in. Once you went in, perhaps there would be some traps inside! Although we were not defeated during today’s battle, we did not reach our expected goal. Yet, our morale has been somewhat broken.”
“Commander Chen, that Hundred Leaf Qin Clan truly had an elite warrior at the Profound Void Martial Stage? Usually, among one state, the Transformation Void Martial Stage is already impressive. And Profound stage is extremely rare among a powerhouse of the state!” One of the General Managers said somewhat depressingly.
“It seems that the Hundred Leaf Qin Clan have gotten a lot of benefits from the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan. Or else, how could they have a Profound Void Martial Stage warrior with their foundation alone?” There was also a trace of graveness in the tone of Commander Chen, “This is it for today. Order everyone to retreat another three hundred miles. Regroup with General Manager Su and set up camp!”
“Yes!”
Just as they were taking, the hanging screen of the tent was raised and a person walked in. It was one of Commander Chen’s trust aides at the Refined Void Martial Stage. With a solemn expression, he walked in and said with a somewhat shaky voice: “Mr. Commander, the situation over at General Manager Su’s location is not good!”
“What about it?” Inwardly, Commander Chen’s heart trembled. On the surface, he still remained calm and collected.
“Two survivors from the team of General Manager Su came over to seek help. They talked about how their team was taken by surprise and the majority of people had been killed. A small portion of them had escaped. Even General Manager Su himself went missing!”
Commander Chen could not help but feel stunned. The others even stood up in disbelief. Apparently, the news was too shocking for them.
“Bring them in!”
After all, being the leader, Commander Chen was the first to regain his senses.
That trusted aide walked out. In a moment, he brought Qin Wushuang and Lone into the tent.
“It’s our honor to meet with Commander Chen, and General Managers.” Now, Qin Wushuang and Lone had appeared in a “battered and exhausted” state.
People would not raise their suspicion at their appearance.
“Even General Manager Su has escaped?” Commander Chen still found it hard to believe.
“General Manager Su got chased by a guy with an iron tower-like figure and went missing. The five elite warriors at the Refined Void Martial Stage were also wrapped up in a disadvantaged position by the enemy’s Refined Void stage warriors. Before General Manager Su left, he ordered everyone to retreat. Us at the Spiritual Martial Force was positioned outside the battle and was in the most advantageous position to retreat. Despite this, the enemies still killed most of us. A small portion escaped and us two brothers still decided to regroup at the headquarter!”
Despite having been in the most dangerous situation, Qin Wushuang was calm and unhurried.
