Xiang Yue's expression was hard to read: "People of Southern Bean Country..."
As the current Elephant King, he was of course aware of the major trends.
The independence of the Thousand Peak Forest was highly advantageous for the Southern Bean Country.
The enemy of my enemy is my friend.
Moreover...
"Red Maple, and my child..." Ning Zhuo had grasped Xiang Yue's weakness firmly.
Ning Zhuo quickly continued the assault, secretly using Divine Sense Transmission: "Elephant King, don't show any flaws, continue the fierce battle with me!"
"After a few more exchanges, I will deliberately flee, you will chase after me, and I will lead you away from the battlefield."
Xiang Yue: "How can I trust you're not deceiving me, you might be someone from Liangzhu Country."
Ning Zhuo: "This concerns Qiu Hongfeng, Elephant King, will you gamble or not?"
Xiang Yue, full of heroism, at this moment found himself short of breath, replied sullenly: "I, I will gamble! If you deceive me, I won't forgive you."
So, everyone saw Ning Zhuo's group locked in a shockingly intense battle with Xiang Yue.
Ning Zhuo's group quickly fell into a disadvantage, but Ning Zhuo seized an opportunity, "accidentally" slapping Xiang Yue.
Xiang Yue was humiliated, plunged into anger, stubbornly pursuing Ning Zhuo.
Ning Zhuo fled wildly, leading the pursuing Xiang Yue across most of the battlefield, nearing the edge.
Du Tiechuan, while resting, cast spells to observe. 𝘯𝑜𝘷𝘱𝘶𝘣.𝘤𝘰𝑚
The Ginseng Whisker Dragon King had yet to appear.
The overall situation was settled!
With Lord Long's death in battle, Lu Hongtu and others fought while retreating, the morale of the Thousand Peak Forest Alliance Army plummeting again, being chased while fleeing, losing countless lives.
Only Xiang Yue was the biggest variable.
"Hmm?" Du Tiechuan saw Ning Zhuo and Xiang Yue approaching the battlefield's edge, immediately transmitted thoughts to Ning Zhuo, in a stern tone, "Ning Zhuo, I command you to flee towards me! Otherwise, I will treat you as a deserter."
"Commander, eating this pot of boiled meat slices will quickly restore your mana." Beside him, the boy Jia Wan, eyeing a large pot, offered Spirit Food to Du Tiechuan.
After appearing, Du Tiechuan had gone through two fierce battles, consuming a lot.
He landed in the government office, immediately summoning several Nascent Soul Cultivators to guard him. If the Ginseng Whisker Dragon King acted, even if these Nascent Soul Cultivators were defeated, buying some time would still be beneficial.
Among them were the master and disciple, Ding Pi and Jia Wan.
Du Tiechuan nodded slightly, while closely watching Ning Zhuo's movements, he used Divine Sense to grasp the meat slices, placing them into his mouth.
After chewing a few times, a cultivator suddenly flew over, shouting, "Commander, beware!!!"
Everyone turned their gaze and saw Lei Qingyang.
Ding Pi and Jia Wan's expressions changed dramatically, the former suddenly turned to draw a knife, while the latter lifted the pot to cover Du Tiechuan.
Du Tiechuan truly did not expect this master and apprentice to be traitors!
He mobilized mana, but suddenly his inner forces were in chaos, causing him to spit a mouthful of fresh blood.
A large pot landed on Du Tiechuan's head, Ding Pi's kitchen knife also stabbed into his lower abdomen.
This scene stunned everyone present!
In the next moment, Du Tiechuan let out a light whistle, exerting all his strength, exploding with a violent airflow, pushing away all people and objects around him.
Space rippled, and a cultivator as pale as paper appeared out of thin air, slowly extending a thin sword in his hand.
The sword tip aimed at Du Tiechuan's back, piercing through to his chest.
Young Master Shengxu!
Having succeeded with one strike, Young Master Shengxu's figure moved like lightning, directly fleeing into the void.
Too fast.
This sudden turn of events happened too fast. In just a few breaths, everything had already been settled.
Du Tiechuan, clutching his chest, struggled to suppress the injury, using several methods in desperation without any effect.
"The injury is too severe! If I don't quickly return to the Royal Capital, leveraging the national power and dragon veins for treatment, both my physical body and Nascent Soul will be in jeopardy!"
With this thought, Du Tiechuan decisively ordered: "Sound the gong to withdraw, retreat, return to the city!"
