Repugnant Gateway

Chapter 1088 – One Year Period

When An Zheng and Luo Duoduo landed, the Black Ruler had already killed Lian Chengli. Amongst the ten thousand tons of Black Ruler, it was Xiao Sheng’s personal magical equipment. The middle-aged man would never tell An Zheng that this was actually a Purple-Rank Divine Artifact. Furthermore, the Dali Sect and the middle-aged man had some connections, so his arrangement for An Zheng to appear in the Dali Sect was not done on a whim.

Lian Chengli’s head was no longer visible, but the body below his neck was completely unharmed. The bloodied Gu Fu Bo drew his dagger from his waist and stabbed Lian Chengli’s chest a few times before flipping to the side and gasping for air.

“How are you?”

An Zheng wanted to save him, but An Zheng did not have anymore good pills. Even if there was, it wouldn’t be able to save him. It was already a miracle that Gu Foubo hadn’t died even now.

“Cough cough …” Brother, what’s your name? ”

Gu Fubao coughed as blood flowed out of his mouth.

“My name is An Zheng.”

“Brother An, please... I beg of you. ”

Gu Foubo’s anger had died down, and he was unable to move. “I haviece on my waist …” There is a metal plate, that is my symbol of the general’s status, and also my space tool. Inside, there is my General’s letter, you put it … Give it to Duan Fulong. “Tell him that from today onwards, he will be the general of the Fang City County.”

Gu Fu Bo looked at An Zheng with tears in his eyes: “Tell him to … I really regret it, I let him down … I just, I just want the brothers to survive a little bit more. I am not fit to die with my brothers.

After saying this, Gu Fubai was killed.

An Zheng glanced at Luo Duoduo, who was kneeling by the side with tears streaming down her face: “Can you walk?”

“Yes.”

“Let’s go.”

An Zheng carried Gu Fu Bo’s body, and with his metal plate, he strode towards the last line of defense for the Ning Family Army. By the time An Zheng and Luo Duoduo reached their destination, the war had already begun. A large number of Nine Saint Sect armies started to attack, the defense line of the Ning Family Army was slowly shrinking. Everyone knew that they wouldn’t be able to hold on for much longer.

On Duan Fulong’s shoulder, in his chest, were two broken swords that the opposing cultivator left behind for him, and those two cultivators were already dead. With a single slash, he had cut off two people’s bodies and broken their swords. However, he was still fighting at the frontlines. Seeing An Zheng carrying a bloodied body, Luo Duoduo holding onto his clothes, and the two of them rushing over from the side, Duan Fulong shouted out for his brothers to follow suit.

The few remaining soldiers poured all of the crossbow bolts out, helping An Zheng to carvath of blood.

“I didn’t expect you to come back alive. Hahahaha, bro, good job!”

Although he was already clear that he was definitely going to die, Duan Fulong’s expression did not contain the slightest bit of fear or depression. He was very happy, his laughter was loud, and when he saw that An Zheng had returned alive, he was truly very happy.

“Make way! Let our brother take his woman and leave Fang Cheng County!” These are my brothers, remember this face for your father. Forget it, since everyone was going to die anyway, it didn’t matter if they couldn’t remember. Brother, you are a man who can risk your life for the sake of his own woman. If a man can’t even protect his own woman … “Who is this?”

“Yes …” General Fobo. ”

An Zheng brought the corpse in front of Duan Fulong. Duan Fulong’s body trembled, and his face immediately became pale white. He subconsciously took the corpse and suddenly cried, “F * ck you, f * ck you …”

He was crying and cursing, not even knowing what he was saying.

“The general said he was unworthy to come back and die with you. I brought him back. This is the general’s iron plate. He told me to give you the letter and said that from today onwards, you will be the general of the Fang City County. ”

Then, An Zheng said a lie.

“Before his death, the General said … He just wanted his brothers to survive. He was wrong. But now that the people of the city have almost retreated, the general hopes that you and your brothers can leave as well. Dignity is important, and life is also important. One more person can protect more people. ”

“I …”

Duan Fulong hugged Gu Fubao’s corpse and cried until his voice went hoarse, “We agreed to drink together in a brothel. You’re f * cking stingy, and I’m not allowed to drink too much, and I’m not allowed to go to the brothel … You’re lying. We agreed that Your Majesty’s birthday was coming up, so we went to the mountains to find a treasure to give Your Majesty as a congratulatory gift. “I said that after your son is born, you have to recognize me as your godfather …”

Duan Fulong knelt down and placed the corpse on the ground, kowtowing again and again, “How the f * ck are you going to leave first?”

An Zheng supported Duan Fulong and said: “General, please consider it for us brothers. This city can’t be guarded anymore, there’s no need to let us brothers throw our lives away here.”

Duan Fulong suddenly raised his head to look at An Zheng, his eyes bloodshot: “This is my home! If we go any further, we will have no home! ”

After he finished shouting, he paused for a moment, stood up and shouted, “If there is no home, we can snatch it back, if there is no person, we can’t live …” “Zhuang Zhicheng, you lead your brothers and leave first. I will cut off the rear!”

He pulled An Zheng and walked towards the back in large strides: “Don’t turn your head back once you’ve exited the city gates, run forward in one breath. There are Qinguan s six hundred kilometers ahead. Qinguan has our twenty thousand strong army. Once we enter the Qinguan, we will be safe for the time being. ”

An Zheng refused to let go. “Let’s go together.”

Vice General Zhuang Zhicheng shouted from behind, “Put all the heavy crossbows on a round for this old man. Give this old man all the stuff in his hands and then withdraw!”

In a short moment, the remaining seven to eight hundred soldiers had all released their heavy crossbows, crossbows, and arrows, suppressing some of the enemy soldiers and causing them to retreat.

“Blast the city gates.”

After Zhuang Zhicheng shouted, he pointed at Duan Fulong, “Where are the personal guards? Take General Duan away!”

More than ten personal guards rushed forward, squeezing Duan Fulong as they rushed out.

The group of seven to eight hundred people left the Fang City County. After blowing up the city gates, they charged forward along the main road. But everyone knew that even if they withdrew from the battle, they might not be able to survive. The enemy’s cavalry would catch up soon, perhaps not for long.

“Scatter! Qinguan gather!”

After Zhuang Zhicheng finished giving orders, he pulled Duan Fulong and ran forward. The soldiers, however, were unwilling to part, and continued to chase after them. “Don’t you want to live?!” Zhuang Zhicheng cursed. “Don’t you want to live?!”

The thundering sound of horses’ hooves came from behind them. The riders from Nine Saint Sect had already climbed over the broken wall and chased after them. It was impossible for the handicapped veterans to outrun the cavalrymen. If they scattered and hid, there might still bortion of them who managed to survive. But no one wanted to leave, and the group never dispersed.

Just as the riders behind were about to catch up, a group of riders suddenly charged over from the distance. They cut the riders off horizontally, and after killing for a while, they quickly turned back around. The riders were moving back and forth like the wind, and their speed was surprisingly fast. Actually, there weren’t that many, just a few thousand people. However, the people of Nine Saint Sect thought that the Ning Family Army’s reinforcements had arrived and all retreated.

The cavalrymen rushed forward to catch up with Duan Fulong and the others and started to retreat. When Duan Fulong saw the general who was leading them, he shouted: “Is our army here yet? Go back and snatch back the Fang Cheng County! ”

Qin Zhi pulled Duan Fulong onto his horse and said with an ugly expression: “There’s no army, we’re the only ones …. General Fang actually did not allow us to come over and support them, because the Qinguan was also being attacked. We came out privately, so how could you not know that there are only a thousand cavalrymen in the Qinguan? ”

Duan Fulong’s expression changed, he did not know what to say.

“Take our brothers with us. The people won’t be able to take them away.”

Qin Zhi shouted, “Everyone, let’s go!”

All the soldiers of the Ning Family were carried on their horses and rushed in the direction of the Qinguan. As the dust settled, An Zheng and Luo Duoduo looked at the distant troop, and then looked at the last batch of citizens to leave the city. There was nothing wrong with the methods of the Ning Family Army. There were only a thousand cavalrymen, and the number that they could take away was limited. After losing the protection of the Ning Family Army, the citizens became even more terrified and at a loss.

The group had already moved further and further away. An Zheng glanced at Luo Duoduo and said, “Let’s go too. When the Nine Saint Sect’s army finds out that the Ning Family Army is only bluffing, they will quickly attack.”

Luo Duoduo looked at the commoners, “But what about them?”

An Zheng shook his head: “They are not cultivators, in fact, they are safer than us. Let’s go, you have the heart but not the strength. It would be better if there were no cultivators amongst these commoners. ”

Luo Duoduo tightly gripped onto the corner of An Zheng’s clothes, and followed An Zheng towards the forest: “Why is it like this? It’s fine that the people from the Immortal Palace bully us, but why are the people from the mortal world killing each other? ”

An Zheng could not explain and did not want to explain anymore.

Just at this moment, dozens of cavalrymen rushed over from afar. The one leading them was a deputy general called Zhuang Zhicheng. “Young Master An?” General Duan told us to come back and pick you up. ”

An Zheng originally did not want to leave together with them, but after seeing the frightened Luo Duoduo, he chose to leave with the group in the end. The cavalrymen kept running along the main road. No one spoke along the way. They only saw some people crying in silence. When the sky was about to turn dark, the group returned back to the Qinguan. The enemy troops outside the Qinguan had already retreated, no one knew what happened. An Zheng could feel that everyone in the Ning Family Army was terrified. Although he couldn’t see anything on the surface, but the truth in his eyes couldn’t fool people.

Bai Shengjun Ning Xiaolou’s life or death was unknown, nobody knew what he would become tomorrow.

After An Zheng and Luo Duoduo entered the Qinguan, no one paid any more attention to them. The soldiers were busy reconstructing their defenses, while Zhuang Zhicheng brought people to treat the injured soldiers. In this unfamiliar place, this unfamiliar crowd, An Zheng and Luo Duoduo were both in a bad mood. The two of them left the camp in silence, looking folace to rest before realizing that the city behind Qinguan was already empty. All the people were evacuated and the houses empty.

An Zheng and Luo Duoduo discussed for a while, then decided to find a house to rest for the night, and tomorrow morning, they would think of a place to go.

An Zheng wanted to go to Nine Saint Sect to see Qu Liuxi and Gu Qianye, to find Du Shoushou and Chen Shaobai, to find the monkey, and to find everyone. But now, everything seemed to have become even more difficult.

Right at this moment, An Zheng suddenly felt something strange. He lowered his head to look at the spatial artifact, and the Black Ruler suddenly flew out by itself. The Black Ruler floated in front of An Zheng, emitting a gentle light.

“Despair?”

An Zheng was incomparably familiar with that voice that came from the Black Ruler. It was precisely the middle-aged man that had tortured him for half a month.

“I promised you that nothing would happen to your friends within a year. But a year later, I can’t promise. If you want your friends to continue to live safely, cultivate to the point where you can participate in the Martial Arts Conference s within a year. If you are not qualified to enter the Martial Arts Conference at that time, you will never be able to see them again. ”

The light on the Black Ruler scattered and with a bang, it fell onto the ground. An Zheng discovered that there was something extra on the Black Ruler’s handle.

His Blood Pearl Bracelet.
