Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Boom!
With a burst of energy and pressure, Xu Que nosedived to the battlefield from the sky. His enormous, dark fire wings seemed to almost envelop the whole sky. Xu Que and his wings of blazing flames resembled a meteor falling from heaven.
"Slow down, boy," shouted Buttface. "This deity's hair is all messed up!"
Xu Que was carrying Buttface in his arms and Buttface was covering his head with his paws.
Soon, Xu Que and his dog attracted the attention of the cultivators on the battlefield. The troops outside the city looked up with confused and shocked expressions.
"Who are you? Tell us your name!" shouted the general of the Ice Troops.
"F*ck, all of you scums! Where did you hide my Hong Yan?"
Xu Que gave an angry roar. Covered with dark flames, he dashed into the battlefield!
With a loud bang, he landed heavily onto the ground. The snow on the ground splashed high up around him. Dozens of ice armored soldiers who had been standing close to his landing spot were sent flying for more than 10 meters.
In no time, the snowflakes that had been disturbed floated gently down.
Everyone was surprised by this initial display of prowess.
Who's this guy?
Looking for Hong Yan?
Hong Yan?
D*mn… isn't that the name of the Water Empress?
The people inside and outside the city were all startled.
"Where did this boy come from? What audacity! He has dared to invoke the name of the Water Empress!"
"He's using fire skill arts. He must be from Fire Country."
"The Water Empress has been trapped inside the Snow Mountain by the Ice Queen and will never be able to get out again. Anyone who was found to be related to the Water Empress has been killed. And this boy has actually dared to show up… is he asking to get killed?"
"To come all the way here from Fire Country just to get killed? How foolish of him!"
The Ice Troops jeered and sneered at Xu Que.
Over at the Snow City, the defending troops wore different expressions. They were frowning over Xu Que's words and talking amongst themselves. "Who is that man? How can he just address the Water Empress by her name so recklessly?"
"And since when did the Water Empress become his? What a shameless fellow!"
"Let's not bother about him. Even if we are to die here today, we must defend Snow City with all our might. We'll pledge allegiance to the Water Empress even in death!"
"Yes, everyone need not bother about the boy. Let's kill the rebel forces first!"
"Fight!"
The tens of thousands of troops continued to battle again after the momentary pause.
Xu Que was being ignored. However, as he had landed outside Snow City, he was instantly surrounded by Ice Troops. These rebel forces attacked Xu Que, executing their ice elemental skill arts.
Apparently, these people had labelled him as a member of the Water Empress's faction, and would not let him off!
The snowy weather had greatly increased the power of the ice elemental skill arts of the Ice Troops. Tens of thousands of ice elemental swords were conjured up in a moment, and came raining down on Xu Que.
"Hoho, this is easy!"
Xu Que's lips curled up in disdain.
Buttface was also sneering as well. "Trash!"
But in the next moment, Buttface's expression changed to one of fright.
Xu Que picked him up and threw him towards the massive rain of ice elemental swords.
"D*mn…boy, wait up! What are you doing?" shouted a frightened Buttface whose eyes were now wide open in fear.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Immediately, numerous ice elemental swords rammed into Buttface!
"Owww… ow, ow, ow, ouch!" Buttface screamed mournfully.
And as usual, there was no sign of any graze or wound, nor even a fallen hair, on Buttface's body.
That instantly made the attacking soldiers freeze on the spot.
Heavens, what kind of f*cking dog is that?
It took so many hits but it's totally unhurt...
"There's something wrong with this dog!"
"It's definitely not an ordinary dog!"
The soldiers surrounded Xu Que and Buttface, wearing grim expressions.
"D*mmit! I'm a wolf!" yelled an infuriated Buttface.
"Buttface, it's time to prove that you're a wolf," grinned Xu Que as he picked Buttface up one more time. "Hurry up, I'll leave these people over there to you. Just kill them, there is no need to be polite with me." With that, he threw Buttface at the soldiers!
Buttface was so scared that his tongue lolled out of his mouth. "Boy, you lied to this deity… owww… don't hit me, don't hit me!" howled Buttface. "This deity will surrender, alright? F*ck! Why are you still hitting me when I've already surrendered?"
In no time, Buttface's tragic cries were drowned out by the shouts of a group of soldiers.
However, the outcome was disastrous for the rebel forces. The soldiers were the ones suffering heavy casualties. Buttface was only screaming tragically, but had not suffered any actual injuries.
As for Xu Que, he activated his slaughtering mode against the rebel forces!
As these were the rebel forces, there was no pressure on him to take their lives.
He pulled out his heavy buster sword and executed the movement skill 'Three Thousand Volts Lightning' and the 'Six Corporeal Forms' to the best of his ability.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
One by one, the soldiers exploded into mists of blood as they were hit by his heavy buster sword.
What was more appalling was his flaming dark wings that were around several dozen feet in length. Any soldier that came in contact with them was burnt to ashes, drowning in their screams!
The man and his dog had only arrived in the battlefield a little while ago but they had already caused the Ice Troops to suffer heavy casualties. The number of casualties was still increasing.
It was as if a virus had attacked and was spreading amongst the rebel forces, bringing some changes to the current situation.
"D*mn, where the hell did this man and his dog come from?" The general of the rebel forces gritted his teeth with obvious murderous intent. Clearly, he had noticed the prowess of Xu Que and his dog.
Although the general was a Level Two Infant Transformation Stage cultivator, he could sense that Xu Que and Buttface were not to be taken lightly.
"Troop Two and Troop Three, hear my orders! Quickly kill that boy and his dog!"
He quickly issued a command and deployed two large groups of troops to kill Xu Que.
This command indirectly eased the pressure on the defending troops over at Snow City.
The defending troops were aghast. But at the same time, they felt that the strength of Xu Que and his dog was incredible.
"That man and his dog are so strong! Such strength is simply amazing!"
"Thank goodness that they're not our enemy. Otherwise, the Snow City would have fallen in an instant!"
"The Water Empress has always been amiable and kind. Knowing a young and talented hero like this is a great fortune for our Water Nation!"
"A pity that despite her wisdom, Her Majesty was tricked by the Ice Queen and trapped at the peak of the Snow Mountains!"
"The only thing we can do now is defend the last city under Her Majesty's command till our last breath. We'll never let the Ice Queen and those foreigners occupy the Water Nation!"
"For the Water Nation!"
Many of the defending forces stared at the rebel forces with anger. Many managed to fight their way out of the city gates.
Overseeing the city walls was a general with a fair complexion and heroic aura, as well as a white-robed old man. They were looking at the battlefield.
The general had a slender figure with nice curves; she was the general of the Snow City. Her cultivation was at Level Two of the Infant Transformation Stage, which was the same as the general of the Ice Troops.
She wore a serious expression and her gaze was locked on Xu Que, who was fighting vigorously on the battlefield.
The white-robed old man did not have a high level of cultivation; he was only at Level Eight of the Original Infant Stage. But his eyes were deep and seemed to be filled with great intelligence. He was the strategist of the defending troops. He stood beside the female general, also looking at Xu Que intently.
"Hai Tang, this boy is extraordinary!" said the white-robed old man. "And the body of his pet is weird. It might be the legendary 'Impenetrable Body'!
The female general nodded. "The young man and his dog are indeed exceptional. The situation has changed because of them. But… the chances of winning this battle are still low."
"Alas, the rebel forces came well-prepared," sighed the old man heavily, shaking his head. "They are strong in strength as well as numbers. They had us fully surrounded. We are like a trapped beast. There's nothing I can come up with to counter the situation!"
...
Meanwhile, Xu Que held onto his heavy buster sword. He had killed several hundred rebel soldiers by now.
He had gained Experience Points as well as Acting Tough Points.
Nevertheless, the deaths of several hundred rebel soldiers were nothing compared to the tens of thousands of soldiers still remaining on the battlefield.
"I can't go on like this! Looks like it's time to use something good. Heheh, I can make use of this opportunity to level up to Level 10 of the Original Infant Stage!"
Another mist of blood burst as Xu Que took out another rebel soldier. He abruptly stopped. His lips curled up into a sneer.
