Chapter 164 The Impermanence Bureau mobilizes its entire force
Back on the hilltop, the fighting below began to end one after another.
With Hu Wei gone, the others naturally chose to surrender.
Zhou Zhi quickly began directing his soldiers, gathering surrendered troops, disarming and organizing them, deploying scouts, rescuing the wounded, and taking stock of battle losses...
A series of tasks began to proceed in an orderly manner.
It must be said that there are still many geniuses. Although Zhou Zhi did not fight in many battles, after training and reading a large number of military books, he was able to apply what he learned to other situations.
"Hu Wei has fled. This battle is over. Let's reorganize the army as soon as possible."
Zhou Zhi quickly bowed and then said, "My lord, please wait a moment. Qin Xian still has 50,000 troops defending the other side."
Hu Wei hastily fled in defeat, and I fear he will choose to escape. I wonder if our lord should annihilate the enemy army completely?
Xu Tianyi thought for a moment, then shook his head.
"Repel them, but it would be best to leave their army behind. If they flee for their lives, let them go for the time being."
Zhou Zhi nodded and immediately notified a martial spirit to go to the Muhua City garrison on the other side to relay the order.
Xu Tianyi felt somewhat helpless.
Since the judge of the Wuchang Division was completely subdued by the King of Chu, it is very likely that the King's arrival to rescue Hu Wei was an attempt to recruit him.
This mere judge is actually a Grandmaster? That's fucking outrageous.
Thinking about this, he was speechless.
If I'm not mistaken, the Department of Impermanence also has a King Yama, meaning that King Chu has two Grandmasters.
He couldn't defeat Yue Shan, even though he was a grandmaster?
Are Yue Shan's troops really that fierce? Or is the King of Chu out of his mind?
After much thought, Xu Tianyi still couldn't understand the reason behind it.
A Grandmaster's limitless true energy can be depleted until death.
Moreover, with such a large river lying across the river and a grandmaster flying in the sky, how could Yue Shan possibly cross the river?
Most importantly, just now, this judge didn't actually intend to kill him.
Could it be...?
A sudden inspiration struck him.
"This judge is just like Xue Mantian!! They both reached the Grandmaster level!!"
The more he thought about it, the more convinced he was of himself.
Only those who have climbed the ranks dare not lay a hand on me.
If a true grandmaster were to come, wouldn't he capture me and force me to surrender?
As the future master of Leizhou, he couldn't possibly not have this idea.
In that sense, the other party is actually quite inept, lacking even basic artistic conception, let alone any real understanding of the field.
This is also why the opponent couldn't defeat Yue Shan; it's very likely that he only recently broke through.
If that's the case, could Yama really be a Grandmaster?
If he is truly a grandmaster, then why doesn't he take action against Yue Shan's army?
The only thing Xu Tianyi could think of was that Yama, like the Ji family patriarch, was probably old and frail.
He stood there for a long time, and couldn't help but feel a surge of fighting spirit.
I need to speed things up and break through.
I must break through to the Grandmaster level as soon as possible, so that I will have the ability to face my opponent.
Thinking of this, he said, "I'm going back to town. If there are any changes in the military situation, report back immediately."
"Yes, my lord!"
. . .
Xu Tianyi turned and left.
And after the battle here ended.
On the other side, Hu Wei was intercepted by the judge.
Hu Wei didn't understand why this person wanted to save him.
He felt both angry and resentful, but he could only suppress it.
"Who are you? I don't need your pity!"
The judge gave a cold laugh: "Is this how you repay such a life-saving grace?"
Hu Wei sneered inwardly: "You're just using me. Now, tell me, how do you want me to repay you?"
The judge was surprised by his words and said calmly, "I am a judge of the Wuchang Division, under the command of His Highness the Prince of Chu. I have come here to make friends with General Hu."
Hu Wei nodded silently: "So it was Your Highness the King of Chu who helped me. Thank you. We are allies, but I have suffered a great defeat and am in disarray. I'm afraid I can hardly help Your Highness the King of Chu."
The judge smiled slightly; Hu Wei was clearly looking for a benefit.
"Xu Tianyi is nothing to fear. The real strong army is Yue Shan's army. General Hu still has 50,000 troops. Why be modest?"
I wonder if General Hu has the courage to fight Yue Shan again?
Hu Wei's eyes sharpened, then he shook his head: "In military combat, I am not as good as him."
He wasn't stupid; having worked with Yue Shan for a long time, he knew the strength of Yue Shan's army.
The fact that Yue Shan was able to defeat the grassland rock bear tribe with fewer troops and achieve a head-on victory demonstrates that his family's traditional military formation is truly extraordinary.
Thinking about this, he felt somewhat resentful.
'They said they treated me like a brother, but in reality, truly powerful armies don't teach me anything. Utterly laughable!'
The judge seemed to have anticipated his words, and then he spoke.
"What if three Grandmasters charge into the fray together?"
Hu Wei was stunned: "Where did these three Grandmasters come from?"
The judge hardened his heart and said, "You, me, and the King of Hell will join forces to kill Yue Shan! As long as you break through the defenses, and Yue Shan fights you head-on, we will pretend to be your personal guards and attack at the same time. We will surely be able to kill him in one fell swoop!"
"At that time, without Yue Shan's army, Xu Tianyi's 20,000 troops will have no trouble defeating our allied forces."
Hu Wei's eyes lit up, but he still said, "He saved my life, I'll spare his!"
The judge laughed heartily: "I've long heard that General Hu is a man of great loyalty and righteousness, but last time, Yue Shan wanted to kill you. Your life has already been returned to him!"
Clearly, the judge also knew about the last time when everyone surrounded and killed Hu Wei and Xue Mantian.
In particular, Yue Shan's final, decisive blow showed that he truly had no intention of sparing Yue Shan's life.
If Xue Mantian hadn't turned back to save him, Hu Wei would already be dead.
Hu Wei also remembered, and then he insisted, "If possible, I still want to spare his life. Does the King of Chu not want the Yue family's legacy?"
The judge frowned, then nodded: "In that case, let's go to Qin Xian's army to meet up. This time, the Wuchang Division will go all out to help you succeed!"
Hu Wei nodded silently, but suddenly asked curiously, "How many powerful figures did the Impermanence Division send this time?"
The judge gazed eastward, a cold smile on his face: "A full twenty Grandmasters! Moreover, they are all skilled fighters, the weakest of whom is at least a mid-stage Grandmaster! Therefore, you will lead more than twenty Grandmasters and even Great Grandmasters as your personal guards, personally charge into battle, crush Yue Shan, and avenge your previous humiliation!"
General Hu, the time to make a name for yourself has arrived. Are you ready?
A surge of passion welled up in Hu Wei's heart: "Of course! I, Hu Wei, will prove to everyone that I am no less capable than anyone else!!"
The judge nodded in satisfaction and then tossed out a small bottle.
"This is the Spirit Fusion and Body Restoration Pill. Taking it will immediately restore all your injuries and give you a helping hand!"
Hu Wei reached out and took the small bottle into his hand.
After examining it for a moment, he casually tossed it to his personal guard.
"No need! I've already fully recovered from this injury..."
Hu Weicai dared not take his medicine.
The judge silently gave a thumbs-up: "The power of the White Tiger is indeed incredibly versatile..."
Deep down, I felt a pang of jealousy.
Why should someone who has spent most of their life cultivating diligently still need elixirs to break through to the Grandmaster level?
As for him, this divine beast power not only doesn't require arduous training, but his combat talent is also a given.
The inheritance is terrifyingly powerful, allowing for rapid recovery from injuries, an incredibly long lifespan, and a naturally strong physique that requires no elixirs or miraculous medicines.
The more I thought about it, the more annoyed I became, and I even felt a bit contemptuous.
If only I had the power of the White Tiger... He's just a poor kid who got the White Tiger's favor, why should he?
