Not following the expected path? Reborn and unexpectedly married to a demon.

Seeing that Wei's army had recovered, the enemy adopted a divide-and-conquer tactic, focusing all their efforts on their commander, Lu Xi.

General Wei was rescued and brought back. They wanted to capture another general to disrupt the morale of Wei's army.

Lu Xi was surrounded by the Slan Legion and found himself in a predicament.

General Wei was extremely anxious.

But who can rescue Lu Xi under these circumstances? It would be like saving someone from the midst of a massive army.

He knew that no one in Wei's army could do it, and even if he hadn't been injured, he couldn't have done it.

Seeing this, Jin Wuchen realized he couldn't just stand by and do nothing.

If Lu Xi is captured, Jin Wuchen will undoubtedly have to help rescue her because of what happened before.

He didn't want to cause any more trouble, so he was about to take action, but seeing the eager look on Fifteen's face, he said, "Go ahead."

Fifteen nodded excitedly, "Okay!"

Fifteen leaped down, drawing two short knives from behind him, and with lightning speed, he reached the outer edge of the encirclement.

Even though he was already taller than other children his age, he was still quite young. The Slan people were tall and strong, and one of them was almost twice his size.

The onlookers were terrified.

"Where did this child come from?" exclaimed the person accompanying General Wei.

"What is he doing? Doesn't he value his life?"

Fifteen couldn't hear, but his skill quickly silenced the doubters.

At first, I felt ashamed seeing how amazing their skills were at such a young age.

But after seeing the rest, there's nothing to be ashamed of. Some people are like the moon in the sky, and some are like the mud on the ground. Although each has its own role, they cannot be compared, so there's nothing to be ashamed of.

Some people's abilities cannot be acquired through hard work alone.

General Wei admired this man's talent, though he was reluctant to admit it, but he was far superior to this masked boy.

Fifteen quickly fought his way out of the encirclement, which was surrounded in layers.

He really got to Lu Xi's side.

"Kid, what are you doing here?" Lu Xi asked when she saw him, not wanting to drag him into this mess.

Fifteen didn't reply to her; he flew up and down, and one Slane after another fell before him.

His swords drew blood with every strike, each move potentially fatal.

The person is so agile, like the ever-changing light and shadow, that they are both difficult to grasp and unpredictable.

"How can you be so amazing at such a young age?" Lu Xi was full of admiration for his skills.

With him protecting her, she hardly needed to lift a finger and could finally catch her breath.

Just as Lu Xi was watching him fight so intensely, feeling her blood boiling and wanting to join the battle after a rest,

"I'll help you."

Fifteen turned around and went to her side, then suddenly struck Lu Xi with a palm, sending her flying out of the tear in his body.

His palm strike was quite powerful, sending Lu Xi to a place where the Wei family army was located.

Lu Xi was somewhat angry. His palm strike hadn't caused her internal injuries, but her back still hurt a lot.

"Can't we talk this out properly? Am I some kind of person who can't understand, lacks tact, or can't cooperate? Why do you have to use such a crude and simplistic method? I don't know where you got this bad habit from."

General Wei was deeply grateful to see his wife free of danger.

Fifteen did not leave when it was best to escape, which greatly puzzled Lu Xi and General Wei. Chu Luo naturally saw this as well and couldn't help but worry about him.

"Don't get distracted," Jin Wuchen reminded her.

Besides worrying about his safety, Chu Luo was actually more worried about Lu Xi.

Fifteen saved Lu Xi. Given Lu Xi's loyal and righteous nature, how could he possibly ignore Lu Xi's safety when he put himself in danger?

If one person fails to be saved and another is also trapped, the situation won't be much better than if Lu Xi were trapped.

Just as Chu Luo had predicted, Lu Xi was about to step forward to help him escape the encirclement.

Just then, a round object flew out from the encirclement of the Slan people.

Upon closer inspection, people realized it was a human head.

It wasn't until they saw the headless body that everyone realized the murdered man was the leader of the Slan people.

He actually managed to take the enemy's head amidst a vast army.

The attendant standing beside General Wei exclaimed, "Heavens! This young man's martial arts are simply astonishing! Luckily, he's a friend, not an enemy, or the consequences would have been unimaginable!"

Seeing that the retreat had already begun, Chu Luo gradually slowed down her second pipa performance, intending to finish the piece.

Fifteen was getting closer and closer to Lu Xi.

Suddenly, a dark mass flew over.

They captured many of Wei's soldiers, and their sharp claws tore them into pieces in an instant.

Chu Luo almost dropped the pipa in her hands.

She just couldn't understand how these things ended up in this place.

"That shouldn't be the case, how could this be?"

Jin Wuchen saw that Chu Luo's expression changed drastically and that she kept muttering to herself.

He looked at the things in the sky and asked Chu Luo, "These things are very ferocious, but with me here, it's alright."

Chu Luo shook her head and looked at him, saying, "This isn't an ordinary vulture; this is a demon vulture, specially bred by some entity. They shouldn't be here."

Jin Wuchen was taken aback. "Then where were they supposed to be?"

A deep chill ran through Chu Luo, penetrating her heart and limbs. She managed to speak with difficulty, "They should be in the south, in Langzhong in the south."

Although she didn't want to mention it, she thought for a moment and then added, "Or perhaps 'near Akutagawa' would be a more accurate description."

These items were once part of the guards of Mustard Valley.

Her animal taming skills were useless against these things.

At that moment, those evil vultures were eating the soldiers' entrails on the ground.

Chu Luo's hands and feet went numb from watching, and she could no longer hold the pipa.

The pipa fell to the ground with a clatter.

Even though the memories of Akutagawa were too damaging to her, she lost them after her rebirth and still hasn't remembered them.

But everything in this place terrified Chu Luo physically.

Just like some people are born afraid of snakes, it's not that snakes have harmed you, but that it's a fear ingrained in your bones.

Jin Wuchen helped her up.

After sorting out the current situation, "Langzhong is in the south, and the Kingdom of Slan is in the northwest, with the Kingdom of Yiwan in between. How can Langzhong bypass Yiwan and appear on the battlefield between Slan and Dazheng?"

Upon hearing this, Chu Luo also sensed that something was amiss.

"Either Yiwan and Langzhong reached some kind of treaty, since Yiwan has always been weak and only survives by relying on resources, or... Yiwan is gone."

A short while later, an extremely ugly and burly man appeared. Standing next to the Slan people, he truly gave off the feeling of a jackal or a tiger.

The Slans quickly changed their head coach and got along very well with the people of Langzhong, apparently having reached some agreement.

Although the contents of the agreement are unknown, one thing is obvious: they will join forces to swallow up Dazheng.

The resources of Dazheng were truly coveted by them.

Their mutual encroachment is not very meaningful, and their racial strength is not much different.

If they really fight, both sides will suffer heavy losses.

Meanwhile, Yiwan in the middle has better resources than them, and they have wanted to make a move for a long time, but neither side is willing to give in. Silan and Langzhong are both eyeing each other covetously and checking each other.

Furthermore, Yi Wan had a master strategist who plotted and sowed discord behind the scenes, which led to a consistently strained relationship between Langzhong and Silan.

But now, this balance that favors Dazheng has been broken.

The situation deteriorated to an extreme degree.

How did it come to this? In previous lifetimes, there was no alliance between the Slan people and the Langzhong people.
