Chapter 1952 - 1956: Sniping the North State Army (Fourth Update)

"Yes, this fellow Li Muyang was originally one of the Fourth Prince’s people, treacherous and opportunistic."

Xiao Zhuang said, "Whether it was last time or this time, I believe that, on one hand, it must be the Fourth Prince’s order, and on the other hand, this person wants to take the opportunity to strengthen the power of the North State."

All along, among the four states of the Tianyuan Dynasty, the West State and the East State have been the dynasty’s focus, with the strongest power, followed by the North State and the South State.

Previously, after the War God wiped out Xu Fengnian of the North State, he supported their confidant Li Muyang alongside the Fourth Prince to become the governor of the North State.

This Li Muyang is ambitious and wants to grow stronger in the North State.

But Qin Tian hadn’t expected that this fellow would come to make trouble at the critical moment when he was attacking the West State.

Ye Kun said, "If we haven’t taken down the West Capital by the time Li Muyang’s army arrives, we may face a large-scale chaos, and we might even lose."

"Hmph, I will never give him a chance."

Qin Tian sneered coldly.

He finally understood why the War God dared to return to the Imperial City with confidence.

The West State and the North State could actually support each other. The War God knew that he wouldn’t dare attack the West State, or even if he did, the West State and the North State together could still defend it.

The combined total military force of the West State and the North State is nearly eight hundred thousand.

Such a colossal force reassured both the War God and the Fourth Prince that Qin Tian and the Demon Clan wouldn’t dare act recklessly.

However, Qin Tian didn’t think that much. So far, he was still the marquis and governor of the West State. ’That War God left Zhou Wushuang behind, but he is not the nominal highest officer in the West State, which is interesting.

In fact, Qin Tian was also guessing what this Ice Emperor was doing by keeping Qin Tian’s official post, wondering if he knew that Qin Tian would return?

"Since you want me to grow strong to oppose your son’s rise, alright, I will fulfill your wish."

Qin Tian took a deep breath and said to Duan Xiaodao, "Old Fourth, go find out where the North State’s troops are heading, and we should meet them."

Duan Xiaodao was startled, "Boss, with our current forces, it’s not going to be easy to deal with..."

"Capture the leader first, find out Li Muyang’s cultivation level. If it’s low, we’ll execute a decapitation strike and show that arrogant War God our skill!"

Duan Xiaodao understood Qin Tian’s character well. He also knew that before when they were mercenaries, they often completed tasks this way, extracting the enemy general’s head from among thousands, a tactic they were very experienced with.

"Li Muyang’s cultivation might just be around the Small Immortal Realm Peak, whether he advanced to the Great Immortal Realm is unclear. My information was obtained from a banquet he held a millennium after his advancement," Xiao Zhuang added.

"Hmph, Small Immortal Realm Peak? Even if he advanced to the Great Immortal Realm, so what?"

Qin Tian sneered and said, "Alright then, Old Fourth, we’ll take the Qin Family army and go meet them. Ye Kun and Xiao Zhuang will stay in Black Cloud City."

At that moment, Qin Tian and Duan Xiaodao, with the five hundred Qin Family army troops, headed north.

But on the road, they received news that Li Muyang was summoned to the Imperial City by the Fourth Prince for urgent matters.

Upon hearing this news, Qin Tian laughed, "Hmph, looking down on us? Think they’ll definitely win? At this moment, they still dare to move Li Muyang?"

Qin Tian knew the Fourth Prince’s character: once he planned an intrigue and saw victory assured, he would become careless.

He estimated the Fourth Prince still thought of Qin Tian as the initial impression, believing Qin Tian was just a Small Immortal Realm expert, thus arrogantly moving Li Muyang.

"Since that’s the case, this fifteen thousand troop, we’ll destroy them together!"

Qin Tian clenched his fist. The North State repeatedly capitalized on others’ misfortunes, and this time, Qin Tian must give them a lesson.

In the future, once he has a free hand, he will lead a larger army to visit the North State.

"Destroy them completely? Boss, we’re just a bit over five hundred people..."

Duan Xiaodao froze upon hearing Qin Tian’s words.

"Heh, fifteen thousand, maybe we won’t kill them all, but we can definitely scare them so much that whenever they see the flag of the Qin Family army, they immediately shiver and panic!"

Qin Tian immediately led the troops to hasten their march and set an ambush on the vital path of the North State army.

A day later, they saw the swift march of the North State army from a distance.

"Boss, what do we do? Proceed with the decapitation strike?" Duan Xiaodao whispered to Qin Tian as he watched the army approach their ambush range.

Qin Tian concentrated and said, "We need to focus both on key and overall aspects, expand efforts at multiple points. Old Fourth, follow my instructions..."

Qin Tian immediately arranged with Duan Xiaodao, then issued orders to the Qin Family army and directly descended the slope, changing into civilian attire, heading towards the frontline of the North State army.

"Move aside!"

"Looking for death?"

The vanguard general of the North State army saw Qin Tian and Duan Xiaodao and didn’t recognize them, thinking they were nearby civilians and shouted at them.

However, the Vanguard General, also an expert at the Middle Stage of the Small Immortal Realm, noticed the gait of Qin Tian and Duan Xiaodao and immediately saw they must be cultivation immortality practitioners with unnaturally light steps.

"You two, stand still!"

The Vanguard General, riding his Divine Beast, approached with a small team of soldiers and asked with a commanding presence, "Who are you? Qin Tian’s reconnaissance soldiers? Or disciples from nearby immortality cultivation sects? Hmph, knowing our army is here and daring to observe our formation, are you seeking death!"

By this time, Qin Tian and Duan Xiaodao were already close to this troop. Qin Tian raised his head, "General, we’re here to deliver a message. May I ask if General Guo is present?"

General Guo Hai was the highest officer of this fifteen thousand troop after Li Muyang was urgently summoned to the Imperial City by the Fourth Prince, his cultivation level unknown.

"Hmph, delivering a message? What message? Who exactly are you? Speak! Otherwise, I’ll kill you!"

The Vanguard General grinned, clearly being cautious.

Qin Tian and Duan Xiaodao stalled at the frontline, knowing that if they delayed longer, that Guo Hai would undoubtedly appear.

Sure enough, ten minutes later, the rear troops arrived, and among them, a middle-aged man in silver armor frowned and shouted from a distance: "General Qi, why have we stopped? What’s going on?"

The Vanguard General replied, "Reporting to the General, we’ve encountered two suspicious individuals claiming they’re here to deliver a message, but they can’t produce anything. I suspect they’re spies and am about to capture them!"

"Delivering a message?"

Guo Hai frowned upon hearing this, and rode his Divine Beast over with his personal guard.

He saw Qin Tian and Duan Xiaodao.

When Qin Tian raised his head and met his gaze, Guo Hai’s expression immediately changed dramatically!

"He, he, he is... Qin Tian!"
