Chapter 72 A tragic victory

"Don't worry about me, go kill the enemy!" Li Hua urged in a weak voice, with a determined look in his eyes.

Zhong Qi and She Wu exchanged a glance, a flicker of determination in their eyes. They knew Li Hua's injuries were serious and required immediate treatment, but the situation was urgent, so they could only obey Li Hua's orders.

"Yes, General!" Zhong Qi and She Wu said in unison, then turned around, picked up the detonator on the ground, and rushed towards the city wall.

The enemy surged up the city wall like a tide, but Zhong Qi and She Wu did not flinch. They ignited the detonators and blew the enemies away one by one. Their movements were swift and accurate, and each throw hit the target, causing heavy casualties to the enemy.

Zhong Qi was not to be outdone, he followed closely behind She Wu, continuously shooting and providing cover for She Wu. The two of them worked together seamlessly and quickly suppressed the enemy's attack.

With their heroic resistance, the enemy's numbers gradually dwindled. The fire on the city walls grew stronger, but the Grand Masters' strength enabled them to withstand the flames.

At the same time, Generals Mu Yu and Yan Ming led reinforcements from the south and north walls to the east. Seeing that only Zhong Qi and She Wu were holding on, they couldn't help but feel admiration.

"Hurry, carry the injured brothers down!" General Mu Yu shouted.

The other soldiers took action and carefully carried the injured down from the city wall.

Mu Yu and Yan Ming also joined the battle. They picked up detonators and, together with Zhong Qi and She Wu, repelled the enemy.

"Kill!" The soldiers' shouts resounded through the sky.

As the detonators continued to be thrown, the enemy's numbers dwindled dramatically. Of the 300,000-man army, most were now dead, and the Grandmasters had also lost a dozen or so.

Seeing that the situation was hopeless, the enemy began to retreat. The soldiers on the city wall took the opportunity to rush down the wall and engage in close combat with the enemy.

The three Grandmasters in the sea of ​​fire were about to decide the winner. Hong Chenfeng and Xin Qiyuan joined forces to launch a final attack on Gudaner.

Although Gudaner was powerful, he gradually felt powerless in the face of the siege of the two. He was seriously injured and was knocked away by Hong Chenfeng and Xin Qiyuan.

Hong Chenfeng and Xin Qiyuan looked a little embarrassed, but their eyes were filled with the joy of victory.

However, Gudaner didn't give up. He saw the right moment, took advantage of Hong Chenfeng and Xin Qiyuan's attacks, and used the momentum to launch himself far away. Then he fled frantically towards the city.

"Want to run? Not that easy!" Hong Chenfeng and Xin Qiyuan immediately chased after him.

When Mu Yu and Yan Ming saw Gudan running towards them, they hurried forward to stop him. However, Gudan was too strong and seriously injured the two generals with just two palms.

Gudaner fought back as he fled. His strength was still not to be underestimated. With just two palm strikes, he severely injured Generals Mu Yu and Yan Ming. Then, with a single leap, he leaped over the soldiers surrounding him and finally escaped.

Seeing this, Hong Chenfeng and Xin Qiyuan stopped chasing after them. Instead, they checked the injuries of Generals Mu Yu and Yan Ming, finding them seriously injured and unconscious. They then sent someone to carry them away. Finally, the two deputy marshals personally guarded the city gates.

There were no cheers of victory; instead, the sky above the city was filled with smoke and ash. Inside, a raging fire still raged, nearly half the city engulfed in flames. Soldiers and civilians had no time to celebrate; they busily moved through the ruins, striving to extinguish the catastrophic blaze.

Everyone in the city was busy fighting the fire. Except for the two deputy marshals stationed at the city gate, everyone else was fully engaged in battling the blaze.

Two days passed and the fire finally died down, but the city had been reduced to ruins, with half of the buildings reduced to ashes.

Lin Feng lay in bed, a forgotten man. Several silver needles were inserted into his body, and his breath was weak, as if he could die at any moment. The doctors believed he was beyond help and only performed some symbolic treatment before abandoning him to the side, leaving him to die.

Xu Tian gradually regained consciousness from his coma. He felt his body tightly wrapped in bandages, and every slight movement brought piercing pain. Despite this, his greatest concern was Lin Feng's safety. Lin Feng's realm was lower. Could he survive the brutal battle? Xu Tian's worry filled him with anxiety.

Xu Tian tried to sit up, but the severe pain forced him to give up. He lay helplessly on the bed, his heart becoming increasingly heavy. He didn't know whether Lin Feng was still alive.

An old man and a young woman approached Xu Tian's bedside. The old man had graying hair and a long beard, his face marked by the marks of time; the young woman was slender and pretty, her eyes revealing a hint of innocence and kindness. The old man, a military doctor, carefully examined Xu Tian's injuries and found them healing well, with no signs of inflammation. He told Xu Tian that he only needed to treat them normally and rest in bed for a while, and they would heal.

Xu Tian eagerly inquired about Lin Feng's condition, but the old man and the young woman didn't recognize him. Xu Tian had no choice but to describe Lin Feng's characteristics, saying that his realm was lower than his own and that he had come down from the eastern city wall with him. Upon hearing this, the two immediately understood who Xu Tian was referring to. They told Xu Tian that the person lying on the bed, barely breathing, unattended, was Lin Feng.

Xu Tian was filled with anxiety and worry, fearing Lin Feng would die. The old man and the young woman noticed Xu Tian's excitement, and to help him avoid being overly sad, they lied to him, saying that Lin Feng, like him, was seriously injured but had already woken up, though unable to move. He needed to wait a while before reuniting with Xu Tian. Xu Tian felt a little relieved after hearing this, and decided to rest and recuperate, waiting for the day he would be reunited with Lin Feng.

However, what Xu Tian didn't know was that Lin Feng lay in bed, unattended, and everyone assumed he was dead. Several silver needles were inserted into his body, as if he was awaiting his fate.

A few days later, Xu Tian felt his body regain some strength. He tried to stand up slowly and was actually able to get out of bed. Although his body was still a little weak after recovering from a serious injury, the feeling of being able to stand up again made him extremely excited.

Just as he was trying to adjust to the feeling of getting out of bed, the young woman next to the doctor walked over gracefully. With a smile on her face, like a flower blooming in spring, she took the initiative to help Xu Tian up.

"Come, Xu Tian, ​​let me help you walk slowly. This will be good for your recovery." Wang Yao said softly, and the voice was as pleasant as a clear spring.

Xu Tian scratched his head a little embarrassedly, and with Wang Yao's support, he began to walk slowly. At first, Xu Tian seemed a little reserved, not knowing what to say to this beautiful girl.

Wang Yao looked at Xu Tian's innocent look and couldn't help but burst out laughing. "Xu Tian, ​​why are you so nervous? Is it scary to chat with me?"

Xu Tian's face flushed instantly, and he stammered, "No...no, I...I'm not very good at chatting with girls."

Wang Yao laughed even more happily, "Haha, you're so cute, it's okay, just chatting casually."
