Chapter 127: Border Garrison's Sudden Change

  "What's going on? The pale face revealed a furious expression. Ma got up and knew the old truth, inch by inch."

  "Ahh!! Ahhhh!!! Ahh!!" A series of mournful cries rang out, followed by a wave of ** sounds from all directions. Then came several loud shouts: "Protect the General! Protect Miss!"

  Bai Mang heard the mixed voices, a look of surprise appeared on his face, and he hastily pulled out the dagger he was carrying with him, ordering Wang Qifeng: "Let's go."

  All that was seen was the appearance of thousands of black silhouettes around the spacious military camp, these thousands of shadows rushed into the camp, like hungry wolves entering a flock of sheep, and unfolded a massacre.

  "What's going on?" Wang Qifeng grabbed a general who was running by his side and asked.

  "The general has been attacked by the enemy, and many have died or been injured in the border camp. The enemy is now approaching the central camp."

  Bai Mang's face changed upon hearing the subordinate's words, and he waved his hand to signal Wang Qifeng to put down the person. With a calm expression, he asked: "How many enemy troops are there?"

  The general had not seen Bai Mang standing beside Wang Ji Feng in his earlier flurry, and now that he saw Bai Mang's appearance, he hastily knelt down on one knee and said: "Your subordinate has seen the Commander-in-Chief."

  "How many men and horses does the enemy have?"

  "Reporting to the General, the enemy has several thousand men. Their cultivation is extremely high, our men and horses cannot withstand them, and we will suffer heavy losses as soon as we collide."

  "Ah!" Just then, several mournful cries came from the military camp not far behind Bai Mang, followed by a sharp cry of surprise from a woman.

  "Xu'er." Bai Mang heard this sharp cry, his face changed greatly, and he immediately flashed towards the military camp where his daughter lived.

  Marshal Wang Qifeng shouted and hastily drew his sword, dashing off in the direction of Bai Mang's departure.

  "Let go of my family's young lady, and I'll let you leave." Bai Meng had not yet arrived at the scene when he heard Liu Tian's icy words.

  "Back off, or I'll kill this girl." A man in black clothes threatened, with a long knife pressed against Bai Xue's snow-white neck.

  Liu Tian threw away the two corpses that had lost their breath, and took a step forward with a cold face. His eyes were filled with majesty as he said: "I warn you again, let my sister go, otherwise even if you escape to the ends of the earth, I will still kill you one by one."

  "Old man, stop spouting nonsense. You think you have the ability to take action? I'll definitely drag this little girl down with me as a burial companion before I die." The black-clad man's tone was full of threatening intent.

  "Liu Lao, what's going on?" Bai Meng flashed over and asked beside Liu Tian.

  "Xu?r? White Meng saw her own daughter being held by several black-clad men, and suddenly a look of panic appeared on her face. "Still not the Great Day Island those bastards... Liu Tian's face showed extreme anger, if at this time Bai Xue was not in these people's hands, he would have gone on a killing spree. Liu Tian was also extremely regretful at this moment, thinking that with tens of thousands of troops surrounding the border, the Great Day Island gangsters wouldn't dare to make a big move. But he never thought that these Great Day Island people were really crazy, actually sending several thousand men to kidnap his young lady, which was something he couldn't understand no matter how hard he tried."

  Actually, Liu Tian was wrong. The thousands of black-clad men did come to launch a surprise attack on the Southern Dynasty's rear military camp, but their main purpose was not to capture Bai Xue. Their main goal was to create chaos in the Southern Dynasty's rear. In this way, the front line would not receive support from the rear, and Fengyu City would inevitably be breached within three days. As for the issue of Bai Xue being taken hostage, that was just an accidental event.

  Kill. The sound of killing gradually approached Bai Mang's side, and after dozens of breaths, many companions surrounded the black-clothed man, and the surroundings echoed with the sound of footsteps. In the blink of an eye, countless soldiers appeared around him, tightly surrounding the central black-clothed man.

  "Dahua Island indeed has a good strategy, unexpectedly dispatching their ace team. Liu Tian coldly smiled because of the thousands of black-clad men that appeared before him; unexpectedly every single one of them was a swordsman or above in cultivation, no wonder the surrounding soldiers couldn't withstand their attack."

  Bai Mang heard Liu Tian's words, slightly stunned, and immediately turned pale, staring at the man in black and shouting: "Put down the girl in your hands, I'll let you go."

  "Are you Bai Mang? Bai Yuanshuai?" The man who had just held a knife to White Snow's neck had already been replaced by his own partner, and judging from the looks of it, he seemed to be the leader of this group. Otherwise, his cultivation wouldn't have reached that of an initial Great Swordsman.

  "What if it is? What if it isn't?"

  "If you're not, then you don't have the qualifications to chat with me. If you are, then we need to have a good talk." The black-clad man's face revealed a hint of provocation, as if the tens of thousands of soldiers around them were nothing in his eyes.

  Bai Mang took a deep breath and said: "Yes. I am Bai Mang, and I think there's nothing to talk about between us."

  The man in black saw the white mist and acknowledged his identity, his eyes lit up, and he said: "Oh! So you are General Bai! Then this beauty must be General Bai's beloved daughter?"

  "In one sentence, will you let him go or not?"

  "It's not urgent." The man in black waved his hand and said: "Letting the young lady of the noble house go is not difficult, as long as the marshal says a word"

  "What's going on? Bai Meng couldn't believe that this black-clothed person would be so kind, just by saying one sentence, it must be some earth-shattering difficulty again!"

  The man in black gazed at the vast whiteness, a sly smile spreading across his face: "As long as General Bai orders General Huang Zhen of Fengyu City to surrender, we will definitely...

  Wang Qifeng's face turned red with rage when he heard the black-clad man's words, and he cursed loudly: "Farting your mother's fart, want us to surrender? Relying on you bunch of trash? If you have the guts, let's fight one-on-one."

  The man in black heard Wang Qifeng's curse and didn't show any anger on his face, instead he smiled and said: "Who are you again? I'm talking to General Yu, what qualifications do you have as a subordinate to interrupt us? If this were our place, your head would be gone for this crime."

  Xue Er had just recovered from the fright, and now she saw two bright long knives hanging around her neck. Her eyes showed a hint of panic as she looked at Liu Tian. In her heart, it seemed that whenever she was in danger, Grandpa Liu would always help her turn the tide.

  Liu Tian seemed to see what Bai Xue was thinking, and hastily opened his mouth to comfort her: "Miss, don't worry. They wouldn't dare move you, with old slave here."

  "I can't do this, let them go and I'll let you leave."

  The man in black arrived at the White Marsh and hastily shook his head, saying: "No, no, I think General Bai misunderstood my meaning. This time, I came under the orders of my master, originally not planning to return. If General Bai does not agree to my request, then I am willing to fight to the death, giving General Bai some time to consider."

  "You glared with your pale eyes, and the aura of a superior being emanated from your body, forcing the black-clothed man to retreat several steps."

  He gazed at his daughter, who was being held hostage. When he saw the helpless look in her eyes, a pang of pain shot through his heart, and his facial expression changed several times before finally settling into a resolute one.

  The man in black saw that White's expression had solidified on his pale face, so he opened his mouth and said: "How is it? Has General White found an answer?"

  His face was gloomy, and he didn't respond to the black-clad man's words. Instead, he looked at Bai Xue who was being held hostage and said: "Xue'er, over the years, I have owed you too much. I've always wanted to find an opportunity to make it up to you, but unfortunately, every time I didn't get the chance. After this is all over, I'll be even less likely to have a chance to make it up to you. I hope that in the next life, you won't be born into the Shi family again."

  "Marshal." Wang Qifeng exclaimed in surprise, because he understood the meaning behind his marshal's words.

  Liu Tiangeng's face sank as he drank and said: "Bai Mang, if you dare to give this order, do you believe that I will kill you first at the earliest opportunity?"

  Bai Mang heard Liu Tian's words and a bitter smile appeared on his face: "Hehe, Old Liu, I've long been prepared, and I, Bai Mang, am not afraid to die. But I cannot let the tens of millions of people of Nan Chao country become slaves of a fallen nation."

  Liu Tian's face revealed a hint of anger. He raised his palm and then put it down again, letting out a long sigh, his facial expression changing unpredictably.

  The man in black seemed to see the determination of Bai Mang, so he raised a few gestures, and immediately the remaining two thousand or more men in black gathered around, surrounding the man in black and Bai Xue in the center.

  "Qī Fēng, get ready. Launch a fierce attack on Bái Máng. The order was given by Wáng Qī Fēng to the person beside him, and it was an order that he would not hesitate to trade his life for."

  "Marshal, it's impossible! We can dispatch a team of elite soldiers to launch a surprise attack from behind, perhaps we can rescue the young lady!" Wang Qifeng immediately requested.

  "Haha." A faint, miserable smile appeared on his pale face as he said, "Qifeng, do you think it's possible?"

  "What?" Wang Qifeng was also anxious and spoke hastily. Even Liu Tian, who had become a Sword Saint, couldn't rescue the young lady, let alone these soldiers whose highest cultivation level was only that of high-level warriors. It wasn't even worth thinking about, especially since the enemy wasn't just one or dozens, but over two thousand strong. Unless someone had a way to instantly kill all two thousand plus enemies with one move, otherwise, even if they managed to slaughter all these enemies, their own young lady would still die first.

  "Give the order." His voice was firm and decisive.

  "Yes, Marshal." Wang Qifeng's eyes fell a line of clear tears, and with a wave of his hand, a team of soldiers carrying bows and arrows rushed out from around the military camp.

  Bai Xue was intelligent and understood her father's decision from his words, but in her heart, she didn't blame him at all. She could understand her father's feelings and believed that he was deeply troubled at the moment. If there was anyone to blame, it was because she was born into a general's family. "Xiao Yao, I don't know if I can see your face again before I die." Bai Xue's mind suddenly flashed with the image of Ling Xiao Yao's back.

  "Let go!" Bai Mang shouted loudly.

  "No!" Liu Tian shouted angrily, his figure rapidly flashing towards the black-clothed man as arrows shot out from all directions, covering the sky and rushing towards the black-clothed man.

  "Kill, break out! The black-clothed men immediately made several gestures, and hundreds of black-clothed men rushed towards Liu Tian. Hundreds more swiftly held up their shields to block the arrows filling the sky."

  "Poor little beauty, since your father doesn't care about your life or death, then keeping you is useless too." The man in black finished speaking and raised the long knife in his hand towards Xue Er's neck.
