At that moment, at the North City Gate.

Boom!

“Ahh!”

Explosions and cries of agony echoed one after another.

A barrier at the North Gate had shattered, and the Dingbei Army was concentrating their firepower on that spot.

The Imperial Guards were trying to counterattack at the breach, but they were blasted into the sky by the enemy’s powerful attack.

The barrier was completely shattered.

The Dingbei Army launched a fierce assault on the city walls.

They had acquired weapons from somewhere, and their destructive power was enormous.

The attacks from the cannons hit the city walls, causing the stones to immediately fall off as if they were made of fragile material.

These walls were constructed from sturdy Black Cloud Stones, and ordinary attacks couldn’t leave a mark on their surface. However, when bombarded by these cannons, they crumbled like tofu.

“We’re in trouble! General Song, their weapons are too powerful! The city walls are about to be breached, and once they’re down, there will be nothing to stop them from entering the city!”

A soldier, bloodied and frantic, rushed to the city tower to report to the North Gate commander.

General Song Chongliang’s face grew even darker upon hearing this. “Why panic? Do they have weapons we don’t? Listen up, everyone! Hold the North Gate at all costs! As long as we have breath in our bodies, we won’t allow the Dingbei Army to break through!”

He raised his hand and ordered, “Archers, fire!”

Soldiers on the city parapets raised flaming arrows and aimed them at the

Dingbei Army outside the city gates.

Swish, swish, swish!

Arrows with flames shot out, creating a sky full of arrows that formed a sea of fire.

The Dingbei Army raised their shields overhead to block the incoming arrows.

The metallic clash resounded.

Those arrows had limited effect on the Dingbei Army.

On the city tower, Li Tianhao, dressed in battle attire, faced off against the Dingbei Army outside the city gates from a distance.

Song Chongliang furrowed his brow and inquired, “Lord Li, what should we do now? We’re far inferior to the Dingbei Army in terms of both weapons and troops. If we continue like this, even if the city gate isn’t breached, our morale will be shattered.”

Li Tianhao, known as the War God, was the most trusted powerhouse that Song Chongliang had at his side.

If even Li Tianhao couldn’t find a way to deal with the enemy, Song Chongliang couldn’t think of anyone else who could hold the line.

Li Tianhao had been observing.

Among the Dingbei Army, there was a conspicuous war chariot.

Standing on the war chariot was a man dressed in white armor. He wore a silver mask on his face, revealing a pair of star-like black eyes.

Both the Dingbei Duke and his son had been killed. Who was this man, and how could he command the Dingbei Army?

After careful consideration, Li Tianhao couldn’t come up with a suitable answer.

Upon hearing Song Chongliang’s inquiry, Li Tianhao spoke in a deep voice, “What else can we do? We can only fight!”

“Actually, there’s another way,” whispered a vice general beside Song Chongliang. “Didn’t the Dingbei Army rebel to avenge the Dingbei Duke? If we could hand over Gu Qingluan, this conflict might come to an end.”

Earlier, a Dingbei Army officer had made it clear that they would immediately withdraw if Gu Qingluan were surrendered.

Song Chongliang frowned, wondering if this was the only option available.

Li Tianhao’s expression darkened as he retorted, “Nonsense! The Dingbei Army is just using it as an excuse. Do you believe that?”

The vice general was scolded by him, turning red in the face, and closed his mouth in frustration.

As they were discussing, a terrifying energy surged towards them, and a blinding light made it impossible to keep their eyes open.

“General Song, be careful!”

“Lord Li, watch out!”

Soldiers nearby cried out in alarm.

Song Chongliang and the vice general hurriedly retreated to avoid it.

Li Tianhao snorted and summoned the Blazing Flame Spear, thrusting it towards the approaching energy ball.

The Blazing Flame Spear burned brightly, not losing its radiance against the light ball.

When the two collided, there was no explosion.

Li Tianhao skillfully redirected the light ball, sending it soaring into the sky.

Boom!

The light ball exploded in mid-air.

A tremendous energy radiated in all directions.

The dazzling light illuminated half of the sky.

People’s eyes were momentarily blinded.

When the light subsided, Li Tianhao stood proudly on the city tower, holding the Blazing Flame Spear.

“Lord Li is mighty!”

The Imperial Guards cheered, their eyes filled with admiration and respect as they looked at him.

“He truly deserves the title of ‘God of War’ of Chengyuan Nation! Without the Dingbei Army’s support, the Dingbei Duke would be nothing!”

“That’s right! Lord Li, with the Blazing Flame Spear in hand, can sweep through thousands of enemies. Such a powerhouse truly deserves the title ‘God of War.’ The Dingbei Duke is just a hollow name.”

“With Lord Li here, not even the Dingbei Army can break through!”

Li Tianhao’s appearance boosted the morale of the Imperial Guards.

On a Dingbei Army war chariot.

The man in white armor asked, “Who was that person just now?”

On the side, atop a spirited horse, General Chen Chong respectfully lowered his head and replied, “In response to Young Master Yun, he is Li Tianhao, known as the War God of Chengyuan Nation.”

“Oh? So, he’s Li Tianhao! Indeed, he has some skill. If you were to fight him, who would be stronger?”

Chen Chong scratched his nose and said sheepishly, “I was once a defeated subordinate of Li Tianhao.”

Xiao Jingye sneered lightly, “Stage of the Heavenly Realm, Level Nine. That’s worth a try.”

“Young Master Yun, Lord Li reached Stage of the Heavenly Realm, Level Nine several years ago,” Chen Chong reminded him.

“I can see that for myself!” Xiao Jingye sneered dismissively. “Just Stage of the Heavenly Realm, Level Nine.”

In his heart, Chen Chong thought that Stage of the Heavenly Realm, Level Nine was the highest stage below the Saint Realm. There were only a few Saints in the world. Young Master Yun was a bit too arrogant.

“Saint Yin Qing, could you please teach this man surnamed Li a lesson so that they, Chengyuan Nation, will understand that surrender is the correct choice?”

Saint Yin Qing?

Chen Chong was surprised as he followed Xiao Jingye’s gaze.

A mysterious figure cloaked in a hood had been accompanying Xiao Jingye, and Chen Chong had never known his identity. It turned out he was a Saint!

No wonder Young Master Yun had so much confidence!

However…

Chengyuan Nation currently had four Saints.

Relying solely on Saint Yin Qing might not be enough to deal with Chengyuan.

While Chen Chong was sighing, Saint Yin Qing had already flown towards the city gate, targeting Li Tianhao’s vital points.

He was incredibly fast, and no one had time to react.

Song Chongliang and the Imperial Guards watched in astonishment as a mysterious figure suddenly flew out from the enemy ranks and appeared in front of Lord Li. He grabbed Li Tianhao by the throat!

“Lord Li!”

Everyone rushed forward to stop him but were effortlessly swept aside by the opponent, sent flying and battered, with stars in their vision, and heads bleeding.

Under the pressure of his opponent, Li Tianhao’s movements were restricted. His attacks were slow, and each one was easily blocked by the opponent.

As for Li Tianhao, he was caught by the throat, unable to breathe, his face turning red as he struggled desperately.

Yin Qing sneered disdainfully, grabbed his throat, and flew away from the city tower, returning to the Dingbei Army..
