Mountains and rivers are waiting for you to return

Chapter 214 Helian Dunru
"Yes, the soldiers behind him are all wearing armor from the Yunjiang Kingdom." Han Ruize agreed.

Helian Dunru is the commander-in-chief of the Yunjiang Kingdom in the western border, and is also known as the Yunjiang God of War. His special two-handed weapon, which combines a crossbow with two swords, is called the Dahe Zhuixing Crossbow Sword.

The Yunjiang Kingdom is located in the southwest of the western border. For hundreds of years, it has been closed to the outside world and has had little contact with the outside world.

They were originally neutral and had no intention of getting involved in the war.

However, Yue Cang and the Wu tribe forced the countries in the Western Border to take sides. After Mengjia, another country that disobeyed the Wu tribe's god, was destroyed, many small countries in the Western Border, including Yunjiang, were forced to join the Western Border Alliance in order to preserve themselves and became enemies of Pei Nai and others.

The Yunjiang Kingdom is no longer closed and has opened its doors.

Helian Dunru, who has always enjoyed a reputation in the martial arts world, was also named the new Liujiang not long ago.

I don’t know when they entered the secret territory of Lu State, but it must have been before Pei Nai and others. However, they didn’t have a map, so how could they get so deep into this place?
Pei Nai was just wondering when Helian Dunru and the Yunjiang soldiers were getting closer and closer.

At the end of the corridor, countless deformed monsters seemed to be crazy and out of their minds, stumbling and squeezing towards them.

Two Yunjiang soldiers failed to defend themselves carefully and were caught by the monsters. They were immediately trapped in the monster pile.

Helian Dunru had obviously guessed their identities. He crossed his two swords and the sharp sword light swept towards Pei Nai and others.

Pei Nai and the others dodged quickly, and then four crossbow arrows were fired in succession.

Pei Nai and Han Ruize used their guns and half whips to block, while Gu Jinheng and Du Ling dodged sideways.

Helian Dunru arrived in an instant and chopped down with his long sword.

Pei Nai raised his gun to block.

The two weapons collided with each other, making a clanging sound.

The two of them collided, and Helian Dunru turned his other long sword and slashed towards Pei Nai's neck.

Pei Nai tilted his head back and narrowly missed the blade.

The moment Pei Nai straightened his body, Zhu Bei's spear rotated half a circle, pressed against his sword wall, and swept towards him.

Helian Dunru was forced to retreat.

Pei Nai turned the gun around and held it tightly, then his body jumped and circled in the air following the gun, and turned back to the front when he landed.

The spear swept through the air, cutting out an unparalleled arc of wind and slashing forward sharply.

Helian Dunru raised two swords in front of him to block the killing force of Feng Arc, but his body was still hit and fell backwards.

His back hit the Yunjiang soldiers and he managed to keep his balance.

Because of the short moment they were fighting, the road was blocked and the deformed monsters killed many Yunjiang soldiers in the rear.

They raised their weapons and fought back, but they were overwhelmed by the sheer number of monsters and suffered heavy losses.

Pei Nai and the others were standing at a three-way intersection.

Not far to the left is the block exit, leading to the cliff corridor. The Pei family soldiers and the Silver Armor Guards have all evacuated.

In front were Helian Dunru and the Yunjiang soldiers, followed by countless deformed monsters, covering the sky and the earth, making people shudder.

There was originally an empty path on their right, but now a group of monsters appeared.

Han Ruize whipped the monsters continuously, killing them and pushing them back.

But there were more and more monsters, and they were not sure whether the exit on the left would still be safe.

If surrounded, the monsters will block all roads and they will be trapped with no hope of escape.

"Nail, let's retreat first." Gu Jinheng quickly analyzed the situation and said to Pei Nai.

Pei Nai fended off Helian Dunru's attack and replied, "Okay."

She gradually retreated during the fight, and under the cover of Han Ruize and others, ran towards the block exit. This was considered as giving up the fight with Helian Dunru and others, leaving them a way to survive.

Outside the exit was indeed a corridor next to a cliff and an abyss. Pei Nai and his companions escaped, and Helian Dunru and the Yunjiang soldiers followed closely behind.

However, at this moment, two monsters emerged from the other side of the outer corridor, and the Yunjiang soldiers were unable to defend themselves in time.

In the chaos, a sturdy multi-limbed monster crashed into Helian Dunru.

There was a thousand-foot cliff next to him, and Helian Dunru fell out of the corridor with nothing to block his view below.

Just as he was about to fall into the abyss, a hand reached out from the side and grabbed his arm.

Helian Dunru looked up at Pei Nai above him in confusion.

The monster in the outer corridor turned and pounced on Pei Nai, but because she stayed there, Gu Jinheng and Han Ruize did not leave either.

Han Ruize swung his whip, penetrated into the gap, wrapped up the monster, and then swung it outward and threw it into the abyss, protecting Pei Nai.

The Yunjiang soldiers blocked the deformed monsters behind them and served as a line of defense.

Pei Nai lifted Helian Dunru up, and Helian Dunru followed Pei Nai to push together. Gu Jinheng also came to help Pei Nai and grabbed Helian Dunru's other arm.

The two of them quickly rescued Helian Dunru.

"Why save me?" Helian Dunru asked Pei Nai, puzzled.

He spoke clear and fluent Tianyao dialect. Yunjiang Kingdom had been closed to the outside world for a hundred years, so it was unknown where he learned the Tianyao dialect.

Pei Nai said: "I can see that you are not a bad person. You were just forced to join the Western Alliance because of Yue Cang's threat. We don't necessarily have to be enemies."

"Yue Cang?" Helian Dunru repeated the name and frowned, "Are you talking about the first Qingyun Tianji?"

Pei Nai seemed to be looking at a hopeless person.

The monster was approaching from behind. She shook her head and said to him, "Think carefully about who your enemy is." Then she strode away with Gu Jinheng, Han Ruize and others.

As soon as they entered the 75th block, Pei Nai and his companions heard the sharp metallic sound of weapons clashing.

It's not like a battle with monsters, but more like a fight between people.

"Are there people from the Wu tribe?" Pei Nai asked in surprise.

They quickly rushed over following the sound, but the sound of fierce fighting had gradually faded away. When they arrived, the corpses of Wu soldiers were everywhere.

Some soldiers from the Pei family army and the Silver Armor Guards were injured, but their injuries were not serious.

The soldiers that Gu Jinheng and Han Ruize brought into the secret realm were all very strong. With Huyan Weizhao also in the team, it was rare that no member of Tianyao was sacrificed.

"You guys were really quick. You ended the battle so quickly." Pei Nai praised.

Helian Dunru and Yunjiang's soldiers also rushed over. They looked at the corpses of Wu soldiers all over the ground and confronted Pei Nai and the others at a distance.

Helian Dunru was about to say something.

Five giant snake-like vines suddenly stretched out from a fork in the road. They opened their bloody mouths with sharp teeth at an extremely fast speed, rushed into Yunjiang's team, and carried away four soldiers.

The group of deformed monsters behind also caught up.

Helian Dunru was anxious to rescue people, while Pei Nai and his men also had to focus on defense and retreat, so the two sides separated.

Gu Jinheng used the divine energy of Dandao to kill some of the monsters, but those deformed monsters seemed endless. He could only try his best to control the monsters at the back and slow them down to buy time for Tianyao.

They fought and fled all the way, constantly crossing blocks and then moving upward.

When they reached the 80th block, the deformed monsters that were chasing them were finally completely eliminated. Gu Jinheng confirmed that there were no new monsters behind, and everyone felt relieved.

To prevent any accidents, they went up one block and decided to rest there overnight.

The soldiers bandaged the wounds and washed away the blood.

Pei Nai also sat aside and wiped her spear. Gu Jinheng prepared the food, found a seat next to her and sat down, waiting for her quietly.
