After leaving the city, Gu Yang and Hu Qing walked along a winding path. Although the old donkey was a little old, it was still quite steady.

Hu Qing and Gu Yang's mood gradually calmed down with the slow journey.

Hu Qing was describing various urban anomalies to Gu Yang, such as lizard men, clowns, and cat-faced old ladies, which frightened Gu Yang so much that he shrank on the donkey and dared not move.

However, when they approached the border of Baizhi Kingdom, a rumbling sound from afar broke their tranquility.

It was the sound of war drums, accompanied by the sharp clash of metal and the neighing of war horses.

Hu Qing and Gu Yang looked at each other and saw the vigilance in each other's eyes.

"It seems we have to be careful. This must be the war that the old man was talking about." Hu Qing said in a low voice.

They decided to take a detour to avoid possible battlefields and avoid unnecessary trouble.

However, fate did not seem to let them pass easily.

Just as they were trying to cross a dense forest, two waves of soldiers suddenly rushed out of the woods and surrounded them.

"Who are you?" a general in iron armor shouted.

"You Baizhi Nation are still pretending. These are obviously the reinforcements you invited!"

On the other side, a big man in silver armor also came out and angrily scolded the armored general.

Hu Qing and Gu Yang immediately realized that they had been mistaken for the enemy's reinforcements.

Moreover, both sides believed that they had invited reinforcements from the other side. The atmosphere became increasingly tense, and the sound of bows and arrows being drawn could be heard one after another.

In this case, explanations are often useless and they must react immediately.

Hu Qing took a deep breath. He knew that this was the time for him to show his strength. Gu Yang's dantian had not healed yet, so he had to protect him.

He slowly drew out the royal sword from his waist, and the sword flashed coldly in the sunlight.

His eyes were firm, and the sword in his hand seemed to sense his will, emitting a low hum.

"I'm just a passerby and have no intention of getting involved in your war." Gu Yang shouted from the side, his voice calm and powerful.

However, the soldiers on both sides had no intention of letting them go.

They began to approach slowly, the weapons in their hands flashing coldly in the sunlight.

Gu Yang just looked at those soldiers. It seemed that most of them were only in the Body Tempering Stage.

In the eyes of the soldiers, this mysterious man actually had a golden sword flying next to him, shining in the sun.

They were all a little frightened, but due to the general's orders, they were forced to attack.

Just then, Hu Qing moved.

His body suddenly burst out with an astonishing increase in spiritual power, which was continuously injected into the royal sword. The royal sword in his hand drew two sharp sword auras in the air.

The sword energy was like a substance, shooting into the ground and drawing two deep grooves, raising dust and with astonishing momentum.

The soldiers on both sides were shocked by the sudden force. They stopped and looked at each other, not daring to act rashly.

Gu Yang took the opportunity to retreat and rode his donkey to rush out of this meaningless battle.

However, at this moment, a soldier was too nervous and accidentally shot the arrow in his hand. The arrow made a sound of breaking through the air and flew straight towards Gu Yang's crotch.

Hu Qing was about to knock the arrow away, but the arrow was too fast and unfortunately hit the old donkey they had just bought.

The old donkey let out a wail, fell to the ground, foaming at the mouth, and it was obvious that he was no longer able to survive.

The atmosphere became more solemn. The soldiers around looked at the fallen old donkey, and their legs couldn't help but tremble like sieved chaff.

Anger burned in Gu Yang's eyes. He didn't expect that they just wanted to pass through quietly but encountered such an unexpected disaster.

"These bastards!" Gu Yang cursed in a low voice, his voice trembling slightly. Wasn't this the blatant anger of an honest man?

Hu Qing gripped the royal sword tightly, with the tip of the sword pointing to the sky. His eyes became increasingly cold and filled with murderous intent.

He knew that sometimes, kindness could not buy peace, and only by showing enough strength could the enemy be in awe.

"It seems that we have to teach them a lesson."

His voice was calm, but Gu Yang knew that this guy was really angry.

Hu Qing took a deep breath, and the spiritual power in his body surged like a tide. The light on the king's sword became brighter and brighter, and the sword energy condensed in the air, forming ripples visible to the naked eye.

Every breath Hu Qing took caused the surrounding air to vibrate slightly, as if the entire world was moved by his power.

Ever since he was struck by lightning, it has become easier for him to mobilize the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and he can easily deceive some weak people like this.

The generals on both sides felt the oppression of this force, their faces turned pale, and unprecedented fear surged in their hearts.

They knew that the young man in front of them was not someone they could contend with.

"Sir, we were wrong, please forgive us!" A general knelt on the ground, his voice filled with tears.

Another general also hurriedly ordered, "Quick, bring out our war horses and give them to this lord!"

The soldiers acted hastily and soon brought two tall war horses.

Both horses were carefully selected, with a wild gleam in their eyes and smooth and powerful muscle lines.

The two generals stepped forward personally and handed the reins to Hu Qing and Gu Yang. Their attitude was extremely respectful, as if they were facing an inviolable god.

"Sir, this is a small gift from us, please accept it." There was a slight tremor in the generals' voices.

Gu Yang glanced at them, said nothing, and just nodded slightly.

He knew that sometimes a display of strength was more convincing than a thousand words.

Fortunately, Hu Qing was by his side. Gu Yang watched him put away his sword. He was envious of his smooth movements. When he was able to practice again, he would find some cool sword techniques to practice.

Gu Yang jumped onto the horse. His movements were neat and smooth, with a hint of indifference in his eyes.

Hu Qing also rode another warhorse. He patted the horse's neck gently, and the horse immediately quieted down, as if it could sense the murderous aura behind it.

"Let's go, Guyang." Hu Qing said, "Hantian City is still waiting for us."

The two men rode their war horses through the path cleared by the soldiers. The sound of horse hooves echoed on the battlefield like a war song, announcing their departure.

Their figures gradually disappeared into the distance, leaving only the soldiers standing there in a daze.

"That lord is truly amazing. He can actually make an empty warhorse follow him closely without wandering off."

The armored general wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked at the disappearing direction with admiration.

"Yes, that lord is very powerful and terrifying, but he won't kill innocent people. He is indeed a good man!" The silver-armored general echoed.

However, after looking at each other, they said nothing more and led their soldiers to their respective camps.

On the other side, two people were riding war horses, enjoying the speed and passion, running in the sunset.

"Louis III, Louis IV, faster, faster!"
