You get Lu Bu as your starting character.

Chapter 343 Yuwen Chengdu
Yuwen Chengdu's sudden appearance stunned the troops of Jushi City.

Even Shi Yan, the city lord of Giant Stone City, had his pupils constrict upon seeing Yuwen Chengdu appear.

It wasn't that they were amazed by Yuwen Chengdu's heroic prowess, but rather that they were shocked by his strength.

The pinnacle of Yin and Yang.

This is already at the very top of the pyramid among the hundreds of cities in the Great Wilderness, representing the pinnacle of combat power.

"Who is your Excellency?"

Shi Yan stared intently at Yuwen Chengdu, his expression grave.

Just now, Shi Yan didn't take Huo Qubing and Lü Bu's appearance seriously.

However, Shi Yan had to take the appearance of Yuwen Chengdu seriously.

Because Yuwen Chengdu's strength is at the peak of Yin and Yang.

Even Shi Yan, the city lord of Giant Stone City, is only at this level.

Yuwen Chengdu descended from the sky, standing proudly in the air.

His indifferent gaze, as if he regarded all living beings as worthless, was directed at Shi Yan.

Yuwen Chengdu spoke in a booming voice, enunciating each word clearly: "Commander of the Imperial Guards of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Yuwen Chengdu."

Yuwen Chengdu?

Upon hearing this unfamiliar name, Shi Yan's brows furrowed immediately.

Judging from the information gathered from the Langya Wang family and other sources, Shi Yan seemed to have never heard of Yuwen Chengdu among the experts of the Great Zhou.

How is this going?

It stands to reason.

Someone with Yuwen Chengdu's strength would certainly not be an unknown figure in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Why is there no information about Yuwen Chengdu from the powerful Wang family of Langya, a prominent family in the Zhou Dynasty, or from the information gathered from various sources?

Could it be that Yuwen Chengdu is the hidden strength of the Great Zhou royal family?

As his thoughts raced, Shi Yan's expression lost its previous calm and composed demeanor.

“You cowards from the Hundred Cities of the Great Wilderness dare to covet the land of my Great Zhou, and come to my Great Zhou to show off your power. You are truly courting death.”

"Die, Commander!"

Without saying a word, Yuwen Chengdu made his move.

The phoenix-winged gilded halberd in his hand came out casually.

Suddenly, streaks of azure light, carrying terrifying energy, hurtled straight towards Shi Yan and his companions.

Shi Yan had been on guard all along. At the same time as Yuwen Chengdu made his move, Shi Yan also leaped up and unleashed both palms.

"bump……"

The two beams of light touched and then separated.

Although Yuwen Chengdu's attack was blocked by Shi Yan, Shi Yan's figure was also sent flying backward.

After somersaulting, Shi Yan staggered back four or five steps before regaining his balance.

"What a strong strength."

Shi Yan looked at Yuwen Chengdu with a solemn expression.

Both being at the peak of Yin and Yang, Shi Yan never expected that Yuwen Chengdu's attack would send him staggering back several steps.

It should be noted that Shi Yan, as the city lord of Giant Stone City, is a figure whose strength ranks among the top in the entire Great Wilderness.

However, before Shi Yan could recover, Yuwen Chengdu's Phoenix Wing Golden Halberd attacked again.

Before Shi Yan could even be shocked, he attacked again, meeting the attack head-on.

In an instant, Yuwen Chengdu and Shi Yan were locked in a fierce battle.

At the same time, two figures soared into the sky from among the forces of Boulder City, joining the battle.

These two figures were two other Yin-Yang Peak experts from Giant Stone City.

With the addition of these two peak Yin-Yang masters, Shi Yan's pressure was immediately reduced.

The three formed an iron triangle and besieged Yuwen Chengdu.

All three knew that as long as they dealt with Yuwen Chengdu, the commander at the peak of Yin and Yang, the remaining people of the Great Zhou would not be able to cause any trouble.

"kill……"

at the same time.

Lu Bu swung his halberd towards the troops of Giant Stone City.

Under the onslaught of the halberd's aura, some of the troops from Giant Stone City were instantly slaughtered.

follow closely.

Cao Youxiang, Huo Qubing, and the others also took turns making their moves, directly engaging in fierce battles with the experts from Giant Stone City.

"Dare to kill my Eastern Depot's people? You shall die!"

Cao Youxiang went straight to the burly man who had just killed the two factory guards and slapped him with his palm.

At present, there are not many second-rank Celestial Realm guards in the Eastern Depot; they are all considered the elite of the Eastern Depot.

Now that two of them have died, even Cao Youxiang feels a pang of heartache.

Cao Youxiang would naturally not let go of the burly man who killed two second-rank Heavenly Guards.

The burly man was no pushover either. He was also a Yin Realm expert, and even a minor realm higher than Cao Youxiang, who was at the early stage of the Yin Realm. Naturally, the burly man was not afraid of Cao Youxiang.

However, the burly man overlooked the uniqueness of Cao Youxiang's martial arts technique and also underestimated Cao Youxiang's combat strength.

Cao Youxiang, in the early stage of Nirvana, was able to kill four Yin Realm experts and more than a dozen Nirvana Realm experts with his Absorption Technique, including one who was in the late stage of Yin Realm.

So, now that Cao Youxiang has broken through to the early stage of the Yin Realm, is the strong man, who is only at the middle stage of the Yin Realm, enough to take a look?

The answer is obvious.

After exchanging only two moves, the burly man became Cao Youxiang's nourishment, with Cao Youxiang absorbing most of his cultivation.

"Bold thief."

Upon seeing this, the three Yang Realm experts immediately attacked Cao Youxiang.

After knocking the burly man away, Cao Youxiang turned to face the three Yang Realm experts who were charging towards him.

Cao Youxiang ignored the burly man.

A Yin Realm cultivator whose cultivation has been drained of most of their power is essentially crippled, even if they don't die.

Lu Bu was also besieged by the Yang Realm experts of Giant Stone City.

Despite being legendary figures with unparalleled combat prowess, Lü Bu and Cao Youxiang were no match for the numerous powerful experts of Giant Stone City and the difference in their cultivation levels.

Not only Lu Bu and Cao Youxiang, but also others were at a disadvantage when facing the experts from Giant Stone City.

Furthermore, Lü Bu and Cao Youxiang were in a precarious situation.

To be honest, if Zhou Chen hadn't sent General Yuwen Chengdu, it would have been a pipe dream for Lu Bu and Cao Youxiang to kill the experts of Jushi City.

They're more like here to be sent to their deaths.

……

Here.

Unlike Lu Bu and Cao Youxiang, who were in a precarious situation, Yuwen Chengdu was not besieged by the three Yin-Yang Peak experts, Shi Yan and his companions.

On the contrary, Yuwen Chengdu became more and more courageous in battle, while Shi Yan and the other two were in a precarious situation.

It's not that Yuwen Cheng was stronger than Lü Bu and Cao Youxiang.

Rather, it's because Yuwen Chengdu's strength is at the peak of Yin and Yang, just like Shi Yan and the others.

If Lü Bu and Cao Youxiang were also facing an attack from experts of the same level, then I believe their performance would be no worse than Yuwen Chengdu's.

"bump……"

With a single strike of the Phoenix Winged Golden Halberd, Shi Yan and the other two were sent flying by Yuwen Chengdu.

After retreating several feet, Shi Yan and the other two stared at Yuwen Chengdu with extremely solemn expressions.

Yuwen Chengdu's strength far exceeded Shi Yan and the others' expectations.

Originally, Shi Yan thought that with the three of them at the peak of Yin-Yang realm, they should be able to defeat Yuwen Chengdu.

If they could defeat Yuwen Chengdu, the rest of the Great Zhou would be no threat. But now it seems that they'll find it difficult not only to defeat Yuwen Chengdu, but even to maintain a stalemate with him.

If they continue fighting like this, it won't be long before they are defeated.

For the first time, Shi Yan truly felt danger.

It was as if Yuwen Chengdu was not a person, but a war god with overwhelming demonic power.

"die."

Spit out a word.

Like the whispers of a demon from the abyss, it echoed eerily through the air.

Yuwen Chengdu's aura reached its peak, his face was cold, and he casually drew his Phoenix Wing Gold Halberd.

Instantly, the sky and earth changed color, and waves of air surged in all directions.

"This is?"

The three men, including Shi Yan, paled and their hair stood on end.

At this moment, a sense of life-or-death crisis filled the minds of Shi Yan and his two companions, rising in their hearts.

If this attack hits...

They will die.

Shi Yan and the other two felt their scalps tingle.

Almost instantly, Shi Yan and his two companions' eyes flashed with fierce light, and their Yin-Yang peak aura suddenly erupted.

Shi Yan and the other two knew that Yuwen Chengdu's attack was incredibly fast and had locked onto them, making it impossible for them to dodge.

To survive, the only option is to fight back with all your might.

"Give it to me."

Shi Yan and the other two circulated all their true essence, condensing it into a series of azure light barriers.

In fact, just in case, Shi Yan and his two companions even used their trump card in an attempt to block Yuwen Chengdu's earth-shattering and awe-inspiring attack.

Just when Shi Yan and the other two thought they could block Yuwen Chengdu's attack.

Yuwen Chengdu unleashed a full-force strike with his Phoenix Wing Gold Halberd, which arrived in an instant.

Shit!

Almost instantly, the barriers of azure light that Shi Yan and the other two had created were silently torn apart.

The trump cards that Shi Yan and the other two used were all rendered useless by Yuwen Chengdu's all-out attack.

"puff……"

Shi Yan and the other two's pupils contracted. Before they could react, they spat out a mouthful of blood, feeling as if their entire bodies were being torn apart, the pain reaching deep into their bones.

The three of them, including Shi Yan, could no longer control their bodies and fell from the sky like a lone boat.

When it fell to the ground, it created a large crater.

Shi Yan and the other two coughed up several mouthfuls of blood again, looked at Yuwen Chengdu in the air, and struggled to get up.

Unfortunately, the excruciating pain left Shi Yan and the other two feeling powerless to help.

At this moment.

This scene happened.

This left all the experts in Giant Stone City, who were fighting Lu Bu and his men, utterly horrified.

They knew the strength of Shi Yan and his two companions.

They were all experts at the peak of Yin and Yang.

Whether in Giant Stone City or in the entire Great Wilderness Hundred Cities, they are all powerful figures standing at the top of the pyramid.

But what about now?
In their eyes, the city lord, who was like a powerful figure, and the other two Yin-Yang peak experts were actually defeated by Yuwen Chengdu alone.

This is so shocking, so unbelievable.

The experts from Giant Stone City, while shocked, also felt a sense of foreboding.

Their city lord and two Yin-Yang peak experts were defeated, so their top combat power in Giant Stone City is gone.

Then who can deal with Yuwen Chengdu?

Before the experts of Giant Stone City could even ponder this question, Yuwen Chengdu's Phoenix Wing Golden Halberd had already struck again.

Shi Yan and the other two no longer need Yuwen Chengdu to take action.

Yuwen Chengdu's next challenge is to deal with the other Yin-Yang Realm experts in Giant Stone City.

Yuwen Chengdu saw that Lu Bu and Cao Youxiang were in grave danger under the siege of many experts from Jushi City, and each of them had suffered serious injuries.

If Yuwen Chengdu doesn't act quickly, then Lu Bu and Cao Youxiang will probably be in real danger.

With Yuwen Chengdu, a master of Yin-Yang at the peak, taking action, none of the Yin-Yang experts in Giant Stone City could withstand a single blow.

In just a short while, almost all the Yin-Yang Realm experts in Giant Stone City were killed.

With the deaths of Stone Rock City Lord Shi Yan and top-tier Yin-Yang Realm warriors, the people of Stone Rock City began to panic.

Without the support of City Lord Shi Yan and the top-tier combat power of Yin and Yang, the advantage that Giant Stone City's galloping horses originally held was instantly reversed.

After annihilating the Yin-Yang Realm expert in Giant Stone City, Yuwen Chengdu put away his Phoenix Wing Golden Halberd and did not make another move.

As a powerhouse at the peak of Yin and Yang, one naturally possesses the dignity of a strong person.

Yuwen Chengdu disdained to lay a hand on those insignificant figures below the peak of Yin and Yang.

Yuwen Chengdu stood alone, looking indifferently at Lü Bu and Cao Youxiang, who were still fighting.

However, even if Yuwen Chengdu didn't make a move, just standing there in mid-air was a considerable deterrent and pressure to the people of Giant Stone City.

……

More than ten minutes later.

Everything returned to calm.

Huo Qubing stopped Lü Bu and Cao Youxiang, who were about to pursue the remnants of Jushi City who had escaped, and said, "There's no need to chase them. If we wipe out everyone in Jushi City, we'll have to spread the news ourselves."

"Now that these escapees from Stone City have escaped, they can spread this news, and the effect will be much better."

Huo Qubing coughed lightly and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.

Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, Hua Xiong, Pan Feng, and the others beside him had already fallen to the ground.

Only Cao Youxiang, Lü Bu, Huo Qubing, and Yuwen Chengdu were able to stand.

As for the Flying Hero Army, the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry, and other skilled warriors they brought with them, needless to say, they suffered heavy casualties.

Even Cao Youxiang and Lü Bu were seriously injured.

Looking at the corpses on the ground, and Gao Shun and the others lying there, Huo Qubing's face turned grim.

They paid a considerable price to wipe out the Stone City group.

All the skilled soldiers who were mobilized were killed in battle, and the Flying Bear Army and the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry also suffered heavy casualties.

As for Gao Shun, Hua Xiong, and the other generals, they all fell to the ground.

Although it was still breathing, it had suffered a severe injury.

He himself, Lü Bu, and Cao Youxiang were also seriously injured.

The only one who was not completely unharmed was Yuwen Chengdu.

The number of casualties is considerable.

However, the result was achieved.

The forces of Giant Stone City, a top-tier city among the hundred cities of the Great Wilderness, were basically wiped out by them.

Only a small portion of the people from Stone City escaped.

Once this news spreads, Huo Qubing believes it will greatly deter the experts from the Hundred Cities of the Great Wilderness.

However, Huo Qubing knew that this was far from enough to achieve his ultimate goal.

Next, they will continue to eliminate the experts from the Hundred Cities of the Great Wilderness.

Huo Qubing glanced at the corpses scattered on the ground and said, "Cut off the heads of all those at the Nirvana Realm or above in Jushi City, and hang them on the city walls of my Great Zhou later, and collect the bodies of our fallen soldiers..."
