The Young Swordsman of Dalu

On the northeastern border, Helian Ming also launched an attack on the Lu State army guarding Pingcheng while the Western Regions army was attacking the northwestern border.

Chai Gu ordered his army to launch a swift attack on Helian Ming's army, leaving his 200,000-strong Western Region army outside Pingcheng.

Yin Shuo took the lead and charged at the very front of the group, followed by General Wei Qiao. They fought bravely against the enemy.

The soldiers of the Great Lu Kingdom were in high spirits, brandishing their weapons and charging towards the Western Regions army.

The Helian tribe had already suffered heavy losses in the first two attacks, and the soldiers' morale was low. Under the powerful offensive of the Great Lu State, they appeared weak and vulnerable, and they all laid down their weapons and surrendered.

Yin Shuo rode up to Helian Ming and thrust his spear at him. Helian Ming was distracted and was knocked off his horse by Yin Shuo. Helian Ming got up and ran away, but was pierced in the back by Yin Shuo's spear and died instantly!

Seeing his brother killed by Yin Shuo, Helian Hui shouted, "Brother!" and charged at Yin Shuo. Yin Shuo ducked to avoid Helian Hui's spear. The two fought for dozens of rounds. Helian Hui was determined to avenge his brother, and every attack he made was aimed at killing Yin Shuo. Yin Shuo dodged Helian Hui's attacks and seized an opportunity to thrust at Helian Hui. Helian Hui was stabbed in the left shoulder. With a burst of strength, Yin Shuo threw Helian Hui off his horse. Yin Shuo retreated for a long time, still holding Helian Hui's spear. Helian Hui grabbed Yin Shuo's spear and pulled him off his horse. Yin Shuo stared at Helian Hui with piercing eyes. With all his might, he lifted Helian Hui up and slammed the spear into the ground, piercing Helian Hui's back. Many soldiers of the Great Lu Kingdom rushed forward and stabbed Helian Hui. Helian Hui was killed in this way.

The leader of the Western Regions army was killed, and the soldiers all laid down their weapons and surrendered.

Thus ended the great battle on the eastern border.

Chai Gu looked at the battlefield littered with dead and wounded, and said, "It's over!"

"Marshal! We have won!" Wei Qiao exclaimed.

"We've won!" Yin Shuo exclaimed.

On the northwestern border, Nabul launched another attack, personally leading the charge. He was determined to fight Li Linlie to the death today.

Naburu donned his battle robes, gripped his spiked club, and stood at the very front of the column on horseback, glaring angrily at Li Linlie opposite him.

Li Linlie gripped his spear, staring intently at Na Bulu. He saw anger in Na Bulu's eyes, and he knew that Na Bulu was determined to fight him to the death.

"Soldiers! Behind us are our parents, brothers and sisters, and our wives and children. Today we will fight bravely to kill the enemy! We will use our flesh and blood to keep these bandits out of our country!" Li Linlie shouted loudly.

"Kill the enemy! Kill the enemy!" shouted the soldiers of the Great Lu Kingdom.

"Soldiers, charge!" Li Linlie charged ahead, heading straight for Na Bulu.

Na Bulu, wielding a spiked club, charged at Li Linlie, and the two quickly engaged in a fierce battle.

"Na Bulu! You've regressed!" Li Linlie thrust his weapon at Na Bulu.

"Li Linlie! Today we'll settle all our old scores and new ones!" Na Bulu said.

"Come on!" Li Linlie quickly thrust at Na Bulu, who caught the spear. The two fought for hundreds of rounds, and Na Bulu was clearly at a disadvantage.

"Li Linlie! I have a request!" Na Bulu said breathlessly.

“Tell me! I’ll grant your wish!” Li Linlie said.

"I want to see Yuchi Yu one last time before I die!" Nabulu said.

“That’s easy! As long as you surrender, I’ll grant your wish!” Li Linlie said.

"Let's continue!" Na Bulu charged at Li Linlie again.

"Shou Shangxing! You old fool, why don't you go fight on the front lines!" Yale said angrily.

Shou Shangxing, his eyes glazed with drunkenness, glanced at Yale and said, "You dog! You dare to speak to me!" With that, Shou Shangxing threw a hidden weapon from his sleeve at Yale. Before Yale even knew what was happening, he was dead!

“Master! How could you do this?” Liulizi said.

“You all see clearly now, the current situation is very unfavorable to the Western Regions. If I’m not mistaken, the military and financial situation in the Western Regions has been settled. If you are wise enough to switch sides, you will still have a chance to save your lives. If you make a contribution, you may be able to return to your homeland!” Shou Shangxing said.

“Master! We can always go back to the Northern Desert!” said Young Master Min.

“You incorrigible bastards! I’m looking out for you now, but you don’t know what’s good for you. If any of you dare to rush over and kill a soldier from the Great Lu Kingdom today, I, Shou Shangxing, will not let you forget your ancestors!” Shou Shangxing said.

"Senior brother! Let's fight for Master!" said Min Yishao.

"You bastard!" Shou Shangxing flicked his sleeve at him, and Min Yishao fell off his horse and died.

"Master! How could you be so cruel!" Liulizi cried.

“You insisted on doing something so outrageous! You forced me to do this!” Shou Shangxing said.

"Why don't you continue to play the fool?" Liulizi said, raising her sword to stab Shou Shang.

Shou Shangxing was stabbed in the chest. He leaped into the air and used the move "Heavenly Maiden Scattering Flowers" on his disciples. All the hidden weapons in his sleeves were released, and most of his disciples and grand-disciples fell to the ground dead after being hit by the hidden weapons.

Liulizi and the remaining junior brothers surrounded and attacked Shou Shangxing. Shou Shangxing's wounds were being controlled by his internal energy, which greatly weakened his fighting power. Just when Shou Shangxing was in danger, Yuchi Liang attacked from the side.

"Old Shou! What kind of trash have you taken in that you even want to kill your own master!" Yuchi Liang blocked Liulizi and the others' attack for Shou Shangxing.

"I'm sorry to have made you laugh! Today I'm going to clean house!" Shou Shang used his ultimate move, "Dragon Overturns the Nine Heavens," and launched a chaotic attack on Liulizi and the other disciples. Liulizi and the other disciples all fell to the ground.

"Master! What is the name of this move? How come we've never seen you practice it before?" Liulizi asked.

"Ha! Ha! Ha! Even cats know to hold back, huh? Otherwise, you would have torn my old bones to shreds," Shou Shangxing said.

"Master! Just kill us!" Liulizi said.

"Do you think I wouldn't dare?" Shou Shangxing raised his sword forward, ready to strike Liulizi.

"Old Shou, slow down!" Yu Chi Liang stepped forward to stop him.

"Why are you stopping me?" Shou Shangxing asked.

“These people have followed you from the Great Lu Kingdom for so many years. It seems their martial arts skills have been ruined. After this battle, take them back to the Great Lu Kingdom! They are pitiful people too!” Yuchi Liang said.

“If you say that, Yuchi, then I’m not even as good as an outsider like you. I was indeed a bit too harsh on them! Alright! As you say, I’ll take them back to the Great Lu Kingdom!” Shou Shangxing said.

"Thank you, Master! Thank you, Prince Yuchi!" Liulizi said, prostrate on the ground.

"But will the Great Lu Kingdom still accept us?" Shou Shangxing asked.
