Chapter Thirty-two: Stunning the Entire Scene

  In the year 1991 of the Wu Zhe continent, a series of wars broke out in a small country south of Nan Yan. The reason was that Xia Guo, Dong Guo and Tian Guo, three small countries, started a war, and at one time, the civilians of the three warring nations began to rise up.

  Longhua City is one of the two heavily guarded cities of Xia State. At this moment, three armies from Dongguo have arrived at the city gate, and from the high city wall, only a vast expanse of black can be seen, with soldiers as far as the eye can see.

  Qin Xiao Tian's face was stern as he gazed out at the enemy beyond the city walls. Standing beside him was Zhang Hua Ming, the first counselor of the Ferocious Tiger Squad. On the other side stood Hu Tian, the vanguard general of the newly formed Ferocious Tiger Squad. Behind the three men stood over 500 soldiers, their bodies radiating an aura of murder. Without a doubt, these 500-odd soldiers were Zhang Hua Ming's carefully trained Wolf Fang Squad.

  "General, this time Dongguo has made a heavy loss! Look at the flag in the rear." Hu Tian suddenly turned pale and said.

  Qin Xiao Tian looked back at the rear of the local area, his expression also tightened along with it, his stern expression became even more intense, and the expression on his face changed rapidly.

  Zhang Huaming saw the changing expressions of the crowd, and a look of surprise appeared on his face as he looked back, only to see a banner with a skull emblem fluttering in the wind behind him.

  King Hu saw Zhang Hua Ming with a puzzled expression looking at them, so he immediately whispered an explanation: "Zhang Adviser doesn't know that in Dongguo there is a small team of killers who don't blink, called the Skull Team, with over 1,000 people. Each soldier has been trained through special medicinal baths and ordinary swords can't harm them. Once they attack, they won't stop until death. What's most worrying is that each member of this team has at least reached the Wu Shi boundary."

  "What kind of cultivation is the boundary of a thousand-man martial artist? Ordinary swords and sabers can't even hurt?" As soon as Zhang Huaming heard Wang Hu's words, the eighteen copper man training method in Shaolin Temple immediately appeared in his mind.

  "General, I'm afraid this time the Winter Nation plans to use the Skull Squad as vanguard to break into the city. No wonder the border was breached so quickly. It seems that the Skull Squad broke into the city first." Hu Tian sighed and said.

  "En." Qin Xiao Tian slightly nodded and said: "Zhang, it seems that this time we will have to use your Wolf Fang Squad."

  Zhang Huaming nodded directly without hesitation: "Good."

  "Hu Tian, withdraw the garrison troops to the second line and let my Imperial Guard and your brother's Imperial Guard defend the first line." Qin Xiao Tian did not disappoint as the number one general of Xia Kingdom, instantly coming up with the best defensive strategy based on the changes on the battlefield.

  "Yes, General."

  "Rustle, rustle, rustle!" One couldn't help but admire the military discipline of the Fierce Tiger Troop. Within a hundred breaths after Qin Xiao Tian gave the order, the city guards defending the front wall of Longhua City quickly retreated to the second line of defense, while the two elite vanguard units of the Fierce Tiger Troop swiftly took their place at the forefront.

  At this moment, a small path separated from the main force of Dongguo, and several Qilin war horses emerged from the path. The leader was a middle-aged man, followed by Ma Tianyuan and others.

  "It's him!" Qin Xiao Tian's face showed a look of surprise when he saw the middle-aged man, and it wasn't just him - Hu Tian and others couldn't help but tremble all over when they saw this middle-aged man. Only Zhang Hua Ming stroked his chin and looked at the middle-aged man with an air of pretentiousness, thinking to himself: "This guy's strength is not bad, but he's too arrogant."

  "Hu brother, is this guy famous?" Zhang Huaming asked in a low voice.

  "Ah!" Hu Tian heard this question and was stunned for a moment before responding naturally: "Doesn't Director Zhang recognize this person?"

  "Is he very famous?" Zhang Huaming asked back with a surprised expression.

  "Yikes!" Hu Tian felt as if a flock of crows had flown over his head, crying out.

  "Director Zhang, I know you're trying to ease the tension, but that joke wasn't funny at all!" Hu Tian said with a bitter smile, but in his heart, he had even more respect for his advisor.

  Zhang Huaming's confusion grew deeper, and he looked puzzled: "Brother Hu, I really don't know this person! Tell me, why do I have to know him?"

  Hu Tian saw Zhang Huaming with a puzzled expression, and upon hearing his sincere inquiry, he somewhat believed that he was not joking with him. He put away the crying and laughing expression on his face, and with a serious expression said: "Has Brother Zhang heard of the rumor about Dongguo's Killing God and Xiaguuo's Butcher?"

  "Winter country's god of killing, summer country's butcher? I've heard of it." Zhang Huaming nodded and exclaimed in surprise the next moment: "Could this kid be the god of killing rumored in Winter Country?"

  "It's exactly this person, and now in the Southern Yan Empire, he is known as the number one person under Wu Zun." Hu Tian said with a gloomy face.

  "No wonder." Zhang Huaming nodded slightly, actually he had already seen that the person's cultivation had reached the high-ranking Wu Wang realm. Earlier, he asked about this person's identity because he felt a similar aura from him, which was the killing intent. The common point between them was that they had both reached the realm of converging killing intent. As expected, this person was also a seasoned veteran.

  In less than a dozen breaths, the people and horses of Dongguo arrived at the main gate of Longhua City and stopped in their tracks. The leading man scanned the city wall above where Qin Xiao Tian and others were standing with his eyes, and his gaze paused on Zhang Hua Ming for a moment. When his gaze fell on Ka Yan, his expression changed slightly, and his eyebrows furrowed slightly.

  Zhang Huaming saw the man's reaction below and thought to himself, "This guy has a strong sense of smell, no wonder he's been through a hundred battles." Because only those who have been through a hundred battles, often crawling out from piles of dead bodies, even if they are untrained, have an innate sense of danger that is higher than any highly trained person.

  "Junior Xiao Tian, paying respects to Senior Geng." Qin Xiao Tian stood on the city wall with his hands clasped together.

  "Haha! Winter Country's God of Murder, Summer Country's Butcher, today we finally meet for the first time." The leading man smiled and said with a refined demeanor. If one didn't know about his nickname beforehand, others would have thought he was a gentle person at first glance. Who would have expected that thousands of people had died at his hands?

  Qin Xiao Tian heard Geng Qiu's words and hastily responded, "Those outside are all rumors, how could I, a junior, be mentioned in the same breath as a senior like you?"

  "No, no, no." Geng Qiu waved his hand with a smile and said: "In Xia Guo, if someone's name often enters my ears, it is not Zheng Chenggong of Xia Guo, but you, Qin Xiao Tian, General of the Ferocious Tiger Corps. However, recently another person's name has appeared, Zhang Hua Ming. I wonder if this brother is present today? Am I fortunate enough to meet him?"

  "Haha, Elder Geng is joking, as for Zhang Huaming being here today, this is the advisor of my Mò Hǔ Tuán (Fierce Tiger Troop), Zhang Huaming." Qin Xiao Tian pointed to Zhang Huaming who had been smiling all along.

  "Ah!" Geng Qiu's face first showed a look of surprise when he saw the person Qin Xiao Tian was pointing at, and then he angrily said: "Qin Xiao Tian, I respect you as a man. If you don't want me to see Zhang Hua Ming, you didn't have to find some random kid to fill in!"

  Oh no! Qin Xiao Tian and others were confused by Geng Qiu's words, and as Zhang Hua Ming himself was even more depressed. Grandma, could it be that the Měng Hǔ Tuán (Fierce Tiger Troop) also has someone with the same name as him?

  Ma Tianyuan, who was following behind Geng Qiu, heard the words of his idol and quickly rode forward on his war horse. He whispered a few words and retreated, but as he did so, his eyes kept scanning Zhang Huaming's face several times.

  Geng Qiu's face didn't show any anger, but instead was replaced with an incredulous expression staring intently at Zhang Huaming. After a while, he let out a long sigh and said with a self-mocking smile: "Indeed, the world is full of talented people! It seems Geng has fallen behind, haha!"

  Qin Xiao Tian was actually the most nervous at this moment, he wasn't clear what Geng Qiu's purpose was for coming forward today. If it was to start a war, then there was no need for him to waste so many words on himself, but if not, then why did he bring so many people here? Was it just an empty show of force?

  "May I ask you a question, who is that boy beside you?" Geng Qiu surprisingly gave Zhang Huaming the same courtesy as someone of his own generation.

  "Ah!" Qin Xiao Tian and the others, as well as Ma Tian Yuan and the others who were following behind Geng Qiu, were all shocked by Geng Qiu's gesture of courtesy. In the Martial Arts Continent, etiquette was extremely important, and generally, the higher one's cultivation level, the more they valued their own dignity. Unless it was someone of equal or higher cultivation level, people usually wouldn't show courtesy, just like how Qin Xiao Tian had shown courtesy to Geng Qiu earlier, but Geng Qiu could ignore him since his cultivation level was lower.

  Kaiyan sat on the city wall, swinging his legs back and forth as he gnawed on a thigh of some unknown wild beast, his face filled with disdain. "You're just a Martial King, you don't even have the qualifications to know my name."

  Qin Xiao Tian and others were shocked again by Ka Yan's words, just after they had recovered from Geng Qiu's courtesy to Zhang Hua Ming. Of course, some people would also find it amusing.

  "How bold!" Coldly laughed, urging his warhorse forward one step.

  "Shut up." Kayan waved his small hand on the city wall, and a white light flashed by.

  "Ah!" Cold sweat broke out in a miserable cry, and his palm covered his mouth, with blood constantly dripping from his palm.

  "Ah!" Geng Qiu's face was shocked, staring at the city wall where a playful Karyn was playing, and his eyes actually flashed with fear.

  After Leng Xiao put down his palm, the crowd took another cold breath. It turned out that what had injured Leng Xiao was a small bone. To think that the city wall was several zhang high from the ground, not to mention other factors, wanting to pick up a small bone from the top of the city wall to hurt someone, how much accuracy would that require!

  "And also, that old man in the back, you shouldn't always be hiding like that, aren't you tired?" Kaiden suddenly spoke out another shocking sentence.

  "What?" Qin Xiao Tian and the others were shocked for a moment, and then their eyes all turned to where Karyn had just looked. Of course, among them, only one person was particularly calm, that is Zhang Hua Ming who also discovered the hidden person behind him earlier.
