Both worlds are like dreams

"Come on!" Xue Huang drew her sword again, and the Seven Killing Sword Intentions, carrying a sky full of ice and snow, smashed towards the ground.

Although Xu Yao's sword intent is not as fierce and powerful as the Seven Killing Sword, his sword skills are also extremely profound, and his sword intent is not inferior to Wei Yunzhou.

So after the two of them each made three consecutive sword strikes, the canal was successfully built.

The water from the Bishui River began to pour in in large quantities, making the opening slightly larger.

However, even though the canal was built, the amount of water it could divert still had no obvious effect in a short period of time.

Xue Huang looked at the rising river level with a solemn expression. It might be helpful if she dug another ditch, but the remaining internal strength of the three of them could not support it.

Wei Yunzhou understood her concerns, but there was nothing else he could do at the moment.

"Go back first."

Xue Huang nodded, and the three of them returned to the other side of the dam.

The rain had stopped at this time, and the people of Guyan County also came to help. Layers of sandbags were stacked up, and the overflowing water was slowly decreasing.

As long as we hold on for about another half an hour, the water level will drop.

But this half hour was extremely difficult. The river water was almost as high as a person and the current was so fierce that I was washed away without even having the slightest strength left.

Mo Ruilin frowned, he really couldn't think of any other solution.

At this time, a piece of wood seemed to float in the river, and it was like a sharp arrow shot under the turbulent water, directly hitting the sandbag and making a hole there. A soldier who was originally blocking the sandbag with his body was knocked into the water in an instant, and was washed away by the rapid water.

He was exhausted and had no strength to struggle. Zhuo Yang and his team, who were responsible for rescuing him, had also reached their limit. Before they could react, the man had already been submerged in the water and disappeared.

The hole in the dam was getting bigger and bigger, and it was about to be unstoppable.

Mo Ruilin sighed with grief, and was about to jump into the water to block the current with his body. Gu Qinglan and Wei Yunzhou held him back tacitly, not letting him get close.

At the critical moment, Xue Huang suddenly landed on the embankment. The coldness in her palms became stronger, and she slapped down with one palm.

Everyone was shocked, thinking that she was going to destroy the dam with one palm strike, but upon closer inspection, her palm strike did not fall on the stone, but was penetrating the sand and stone with cold air.

When the water encountered this extremely cold air, it instantly condensed into ice, and in an instant formed an extremely hard ice wall, blocking the surging water flow.

Seeing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

But Xue Huang's face turned pale in an instant. Her internal strength was almost exhausted. Now she was only supported by the power given to her by the young man. However, there would be a price to pay for using his power for a long time.

The amount of water in the Bishui River was like a huge army crashing into the dam. Xue Huang could only use her cold air to support the ice wall. Her strength soon reached its limit.

But the young man said nothing, and quietly turned his strength to help her, because he knew that Xue Huang would not give up. Once she gave up, not only would the lives of the people in front of her be in danger, but the people downstream would also suffer immeasurable losses.

Wei Yunzhou knew better than anyone that Xue Huang was just holding on. He frowned, which was rare for him. "She can't hold on any longer."

Hearing this, Gu Qinglan and Xu Yao came behind Xue Huang and continuously transferred all their internal energy to her. In the current situation, only the two of them could help.

Mo Ruilin also knew that Xue Huang was holding on, and he sighed helplessly, "Brother Wei, I'm really sorry for making her suffer so much every time."

Wei Yunzhou didn't say anything, staring at the bottom of the dam. Because of the extreme coldness of the Snow Phoenix, not only the sand and rocks were frozen into ice, but also the water flow was covered with a thick layer of ice. Her coldness was too terrifying, and ordinary people could not touch it at all, so they had to keep retreating to the shore.

"Let them all retreat." He gave the instruction and went to the embankment, forcing his limited internal energy to pass it to them.

Mo Ruilin quickly commanded everyone to stay away from the water and retreat to high ground. When the water level rose, he had people ride horses as fast as possible to notify the people downstream to evacuate. This was the worst plan. Now he just hoped that everything would be in time.

Wei Yunzhou was the first to give up. He had already used up too much of his internal energy and was struggling to hold on. He had no choice but to withdraw his palm power, holding his chest and spitting out a mouthful of blood.

Xue Huang had also reached her limit at this time. She spat out a mouthful of blood on the ground, which instantly froze into ice, as if time had stopped.

The young man lowered his eyes and withdrew his strength, while Xue Huang could no longer hold on and fell down.

Gu Qinglan hugged her and looked at her pale face without a trace of blood, his eyes full of heartache. When would he be able to stop letting her face this storm again?

Xu Yao helped Wei Yunzhou up and said coldly: "It is not advisable to stay here for long!"

Gu Qinglan picked up Xue Huang, and the four of them quickly moved away from the embankment and retreated to the high ground.

Mo Ruilin put a cloak on Xue Huang and said, "You stay here to guard her, and leave the rest to me."

Among the people present, only Xu Yao had not yet exhausted his internal energy. He stabilized Xue Huang's injuries, then looked at Mo Ruilin and said coldly: "Given your current condition, what else can we do? You should pray that this ice wall can hold out until the water dissipates."

Mo Ruilin looked at the exhausted people and the soldiers who fell down and never woke up again, with a trace of grief and anger in his eyes, but he knew that this was not the time to be sad, and there were still many things he needed to do.

Wei Yunzhou calmed down his breath and said, "Take your men to the other side of the dam and widen the opening of the ditch by another three feet."

Mo Ruilin nodded, "Leave it to me."

As soon as he finished speaking, a soldier came hurriedly to report, "Your Highness, the water level has dropped."

Several people quickly looked at the river surface, and the water level was dropping at a visible speed. Seeing this, the people around cheered.

Mo Ruilin also breathed a sigh of relief, "Treat the wounded immediately."

Wei Yunzhou looked towards the upper reaches of the Bishui River. "It's a ditch. The water must have washed out a bigger hole, so the water was diverted. And the sluice gate upstream must have been closed, and the water volume decreased, so the water dropped so quickly."

"For putting me to death and disregarding the lives of tens of thousands of people downstream, I will definitely hold Shen Congfeng accountable for this." A hint of coldness flashed across Mo Ruilin's eyes.

Wei Yunzhou didn't say anything. Naturally, he had to take part in the settlement, but there were more important things to do at the moment.
