"Ao Ben Zong Shi rubbed his hands together and sighed: "In my life, I have seen that General Xu's innate talent is the most extraordinary. In just a few short months, not only has his martial arts cultivation improved to another level, but he has also crossed the most critical step, and in terms of spiritual cultivation, he can almost rival me. This is an unprecedented event in history."

  Li Zhi suddenly turned around and looked into Xu Haifeng's eyes, where an extremely surprised expression was hidden.

  Xu Haifeng bitterly smiled and said: "Li Zhi brother don't look at me, if it wasn't for your master, I wouldn't have been able to make such progress."

  "Ah!" exclaimed Aubrey, "So it was you, Brother Todheit, who had already made the first move before me."

  Lizhi angrily hummed: "What kind of identity is our master, how could he bully the weak? Moreover, if Master really made a move, Brother Xu would..."

  He suddenly stopped talking, but the other two knew what he meant. If Tuo He Di had made a move, how could Xu Haifeng still be alive?

  "Alas..." O Ben shook his head and sighed: "Although Leng Shifu didn't make a move, that one was far more perilous than life-and-death combat. But General Xu's will was firm, and in the end, he turned disaster into good fortune."

  Xu Haifeng thought back to the situation at that time, when he was under the spiritual pressure of Tuo Heti, and almost fell into madness. If it weren't for the foreign blood in his body being unable to withstand the pressure, suddenly bursting out with incredible power. Even if he didn't become a madman, his mind and spirit were greatly damaged, and he would never be able to step foot in the realm of a Grandmaster again.

  But if it weren't for this, how could he sweep away that thread of weakness in his heart?

  Only by destroying and then establishing can one achieve a great success afterwards.

  He patted Lizhi, who was slightly excited, and said: "I and your master belong to different factions. Thanks to Senior Tuo for treating me like this, it's already a great kindness, I have no complaints."

  Aoben was not surprised by his answer, if he didn't have such a broad mind and demeanor, how could he have crossed the barrier that is considered the greatest difficulty for martial artists throughout the ages?

  Xu Haifeng looked at Oben Master and raised his wine cup, saying: "I and the senior are also like this, but the junior's skills are shallow, and indeed not the enemy of the senior. And unwilling to wait for death, can only rely on the crowd, divine soldiers, and sharp weapons, using all means necessary, please forgive me, senior."

  Aoben picked up the wine cup in front of him and clinked it with his, drinking it all at once, saying: "It should be so, if you can keep me here, I will not blame you."

  "So the junior is at ease too." Xǔ Hǎifēng said with a sigh of relief.

  "Look at you, slowly said: 'If you can answer me, take the Black Flag Army and retreat from now on, no longer ask about worldly affairs. I will represent the Emperor, promise that this Lin'an City is your fiefdom, passed down for generations.'"

  Xu Haifeng didn't respond, but instead met his gaze and gradually retracted the smile on his face. He slowly stood up, drew out the indestructible divine sword from his waist, took three steps back, and said: "Senior, please..."

  "Ding Dong" Li Zhi threw the wine cup in his hand to the ground, stood up tall and said to Master Auben: "I'm not talented, but since I've encountered this matter today, I can only fight side by side with Brother Xu. Please don't blame me, senior."

  Aoben put down the wine cup in his hand and said disappointedly: "I knew you would do this, never mind, for the sake of Tuo Heti's brother, I will spare your life."

  In the grocery store, Jiang Kongming picked up the tea on the table, dipped his finger in it and started drawing on the tabletop.

  In an instant, a vivid and lifelike landscape painting appeared on the desktop.

  If Xu Haifeng were here, he would surely be amazed at Jiang Gongming's terrible handwriting. But when it comes to painting, his work is indeed of master level. It's really hard to believe that these two things are from the same person.

  Hamidi glanced at him and nodded in understanding, then looked up and asked: "The border?"

  Jiang Kongming nodded in praise: "The national teacher is indeed formidable. The student's painting is precisely the border between Great Han and your country."

  "Jun Shi Ling said that the letter brought back by Xiao Er had a plan to eliminate Liu's family without any effort from our country, I wonder where this plan comes from?" Ha Mi Ci finally threw out the question that he had been wanting to know most in his heart, otherwise, he wouldn't have come to Lin An personally.

  Jiang Kung-ming smiled and tapped a few times on one of the paintings, and instantly the water stains spread out along his fingers.

  Hamid furrowed his brow tightly, but still couldn't understand what it meant.

  He certainly knew where Jiang Kungming was referring to, that was the place where the famous Huns' Flying Horse Army was stationed.

  Although this is an important pass for the Xiongnu army, in front of the Flying Horse Army, there is still an insurmountable obstacle.

  The Great Han Empire is renowned throughout the world, the only red ocean legion that dares to engage in a cavalry battle with the Xiongnu people.

  Hamid stared intently at Jiang Kung-ming, who made him feel profound and unfathomable. This feeling was something he had never experienced before, not even when facing his master, Tuo He Ti.

  Jiang Gongming gently shook his feather fan and asked, "May I ask the national teacher, your country is good at attacking, and Great Han is good at defending. However, if your country wants to capture the capital in one move, how many layers of assurance do you have?"

  Hamid hesitated for a moment and said, "It's difficult."

  "Not bad, the Han Dynasty has a large population. As long as the Xiongnu iron cavalry invades the border, it is possible to gather military forces from all over the country. At that time, one call will be responded by hundreds of people, and they will rise up to assist each other. It's not difficult for your team to win one or two battles, but wanting to besiege the city is beyond their power."

  Hamidi's bitter nod, he couldn't be unaware of this situation. Which king of the Xiongnu dynasty didn't want to go south and take over the prosperous world of the Great Han? It's just that every time they went to war, even if they exhausted their strength and resources, they couldn't achieve their goal. The only reason is that the population of the Great Han is really too large, and it's impossible to kill them all or wipe them out.

  Jiang Kongming shook his head and said: "Today, I will give the national teacher four words. If you can use them flexibly, taking the capital is just a matter of time."

  Hamidi's eyes shone brightly as he said respectfully: "Please, General, instruct me."

  Jiang Kongming's mouth curled up in a cold smile as he said word by word: "Lure the snake out of its hole."

  Xu Haifeng and Li Zhi exchanged a smile and stood shoulder to shoulder.

  Auburn snapped his fingers and the wine cup in his hand spun rapidly towards Lizi's face.

  Lizhi didn't dare to slack off, his right hand wiped at his waist, a horse knife appeared in his hand, a flash of light rose up, and he chopped forward.

  The tip of the knife touched the wine cup, and Lizi's body swayed slightly. Suddenly, he let out a loud roar, his internal energy surging violently, shattering the wine cup into powder. Then, with one swift motion, he charged forward, launching a fierce attack on Oben without hesitation.

  Xu Haifeng closely followed, without breaking the divine sword dance, creating two clusters of sword flowers that guarded Lizhi's side as if it were a copper wall and iron wall, not letting a single drop of water leak through.

  A faint, imperceptible smile appeared on Auben's face as he chuckled and said, "Even a grain of rice dares to rival the bright moon."

  His body suddenly disappeared from its original position and reappeared beside Lich with a ghostly appearance, raising his hand to slap out a palm.

  Lizhi let out a loud cry, and the knife that was full of force drew an unusual arc in mid-air before meeting Obenz's palm once again.

  Auburn's face showed a hint of appreciation and smiled: "Good, worthy of being Tordi's most proud disciple."

  He stood still, his body swaying slightly from side to side.

  Rizhao felt that although Auben was standing right in front of him, he gave off a strange feeling as if he had already left.

  He suddenly knew that his mental state had been affected by the other party's spiritual power, and he could no longer grasp the other party's true position and movements.

  Lizhi's face set in determination, his hand exerted an additional three points of force, and this knife chopped out, no longer holding back any strength.

  Auburn's body dodged to one side, narrowly avoiding the knife that could have split stone. The palm then struck Li Zhi's back without hesitation.

  As long as this palm was hit by him, he had the confidence to stun Lizi without hurting her.

  It was just this perfect palm that suddenly stopped at the moment it touched Lizi's back.

  Because a dark and ancient long sword was lying right across the path of this palm strike.

  Xu Haifeng laughed loudly and said: "Senior was wrong just now, it should be 'a pearl in a grain of rice', how dare I compete with the bright moon."

  He made a grasping motion with his hand, and lightly tapped the sword. A gentle and refined inner energy flowed up the sword as he said, "Is that so? My Chinese is not good, thank you for correcting me."

  Xu Haifeng hummed softly, secretly thinking "formidable", this gentle and mysterious inner force surged through his arm's meridians. Fortunately, his Heart Calming Technique had already reached the seventh level, so in an instant he was able to dissolve it; if not, just this one move would have put him at a great disadvantage.

  Just as Auben was about to pursue, a sharp blade broke through the air behind him, and surprisingly, Lizi swung his sword again.

  He struck out with all his might, and even if he were Oben Master, he would not dare to be slow.

  Aubrey's eyebrows slightly furrowed, and he turned to avoid it. He pointed towards Lizi's back heart, but halfway through his move, he encountered Xu Haifeng's Unbreakable Divine Sword.

  Benefiting from intelligence is like a sharp knife, its appearance is like a mad tiger, fighting without regard for one's life, every move is a fight to the death, this is called good offense.

  Xu Haifeng holds his sword calmly and quietly, planning before acting, and is good at defending.

  The two of them were perfectly coordinated, one attacking with all their heart and soul, the other defending with utmost skill and beauty.

  Zai Dou Shu He, although Aben Shifu had the initiative in the field, under their mutual cooperation, there was no gap to take advantage of.

  Lizhi was originally an orphan on the grasslands, and was taken in by Tuoheti at a young age. He practiced martial arts obsessively, with Tuoheti's guidance always available. As such, despite his youth, he had already reached the pinnacle of a first-rate master.

  If we consider only individual strength, even a master like Auben might not be able to defeat the young and vigorous Lich.

  However, he didn't grasp the spiritual power after all, and in front of Auben's master, he became bound hand and foot, his skills inferior by a notch. Wanting to subdue him was not a difficult task for someone like Auben.

  However, Xu Haifeng was a quasi-master who had grasped spiritual power. With him guarding Lizhi by his side, the situation suddenly became vastly different. Trying to subdue Lizhi without harming anyone almost became an impossible task.

  Aoben sighed helplessly and said, "Li Zhi Xian, be careful, I'm going to use my trump card."
