Chapter 958: Overwhelming
The battle was overwhelming from the moment it broke out. The deserters and remnants of Lie Prajna were no match for the old bandits. Therefore, the two sides had only been in contact for less than ten breaths, and those soldiers who had fled randomly were killed one by one on the spot. In the airtight counter-encirclement of the old bandits, there was no hope for them.
Huang Gou glanced at Lie Prajna, who was already as pale as paper and had completely lost his fighting consciousness, and sighed heavily in his heart. He knew that Lie Prajna was still just a second-generation ancestor who relied on his identity and background to get to the top. Although he looked outstanding at ordinary times, he was still a waste in a desperate situation and could not hold up the scene at all.
Then, Huang Gou looked at Yue Xiaoxian, who had already distanced herself from him and Lie Prajna, and found that there were nearly thirty Tiandao monks guarding her in formation. These people, including Yue Xiaoxian, all had calm faces, and they looked fearless in the face of danger, and they had already taken a posture to defend against the enemy.
"Ah!" Huang Gou was even more depressed. From this point of view, although Lie Prajna led many soldiers, they were just for show. In real fighting, they were not as strong as the Tiandao soldiers led by Yue Xiaoxian, a woman.
Huang Gou knew that if he wanted to survive, he could only rely on himself. So, he supported Lie Prajna beside him and said to the dozens of soldiers left around him: "Form a formation to protect the adults, we will gather together with Miss Yue and work together to break out of the siege!"
After that, Huang Gou was about to lead his soldiers to join Yue Xiaoxian and others who had already formed their own combat force, and wanted to rush out together. The reason why Yue Xiaoxian distanced herself from Huang Gou and others was because she found that Lie Prajna was incompetent. She didn't know how to organize a battle when she encountered a strong enemy, so she had no choice but to go to the side to organize it herself. Therefore, in fact, the distance between the two sides was not far, which was just a little larger than the space available for Yue Xiaoxian and the dozens of people to form a formation.
However, just before Huang Gou and his soldiers were about to leave, and when Yue Xiaoxian discovered that Huang Gou had already raised the banner, her eyes suddenly brightened. Suddenly, thirty or forty old bandits squeezed into the extremely limited space between the two sides. They were forming a powerful formation, and they were fierce and blocked the two sides from joining.
"Go!" Yue Xiaoxian did not hesitate at all, and directly commanded her people to fight against the old bandits who suddenly appeared. Even though the strength of the two sides was obviously not on the same level, she was not afraid at all.
Huang Gou, on his side, naturally knew the benefits of joining together, so he was about to command everyone to rush forward. However, at this time, Lie Prajna suddenly spoke: "What are you waiting for? They are holding back the old bandits, so let's run!"
Huang Gou was stunned for a moment. He had been a soldier for so long, and he had never abandoned his comrades. Moreover, it was obviously a wiser choice to join Yue Xiaoxian now.
As for Yue Xiaoxian, she naturally heard Lie Prajna's words clearly. Her pretty face turned even paler in an instant. Even though she was fighting a bloody battle, she would occasionally look at Lie Prajna, who was almost scared to death by the old bandits. Her eyes seemed to be spitting out fire, burning Lie Prajna to death.
At a certain moment, Lie Prajna's eyes also turned to Yue Xiaoxian. Their eyes met, and Lie Prajna saw Yue Xiaoxian's anger, while Yue Xiaoxian, she saw a coward who had been scared out of his wits.
Lie Prajna hesitated for a moment, but soon, he threw it away, and stopped looking at Yue Xiaoxian, and yelled at the yellow dog: "Didn't you hear my order clearly, run!"
The yellow dog took a deep look at Yue Xiaoxian, and then, with helplessness, he shouted: "Follow the order of the adults, retreat!"
Finally, Lie Prajna and her group began to distance themselves from Yue Xiaoxian and his group. In the bloody battle, Yue Xiaoxian's troops were no match at all. In addition, the old bandits obviously felt that although Yue Xiaoxian and his men were the people of heaven, they were like the running dogs of Luohou, so they showed no mercy. Soon, people in Yue Xiaoxian's troops began to be killed, and the death rate was so fast that it was shocking.
Until Lie Prajna and his men rushed out less than a hundred feet under the pressure of the old bandits, when Lie Prajna subconsciously looked back, he found that all of Yue Xiaoxian's men were dead, and Yue Xiaoxian was seriously injured and had been captured by the old bandits.
At this moment, Yue Xiaoxian seemed to have sensed something and looked at Lie Prajna. After another eye contact, Yue Xiaoxian's eyes were only filled with contempt and anger, while Lie Prajna felt that the old bandits were so terrible that it seemed unimaginable, so he had to escape at all costs.
"Charge, rush out a way for me. As long as I get out alive, I will personally report to my father and give you all a big reward and a promotion of three levels!" Lie Prajna turned his head and stopped caring about Yue Xiaoxian, shouting loudly.
However, his shouting would not have any positive effect except attracting more old bandits' attention. Huang Gou frowned and took the lead, fighting with the old bandits who surrounded him. And his subordinates soon had one or more opponents.
As soon as the two sides met, the disparity in strength was fully reflected. Not to mention those little soldiers, even Huang Gou felt a huge pressure, and the god of death really came to him. At this moment, everyone had a voice in their hearts, that is, they are dead this time!
At the critical moment, Huang Gou found that he could no longer do much for Lie Prajna. So, he risked his own injury and pushed Lie Prajna out with all his strength. At the same time, he shouted: "My lord, this is the moment of death, and I can't help you more. Don't hesitate, open the magic weapon prepared by the master for you, and escape!"
Lie Prajna was pushed hard by Huang Gou and flew out directly at an accelerated speed. And now he was desperate to survive, so with his own cultivation, he actually broke away from the suppression of the old bandits in an instant and flew high.
"Want to run?" A man's voice suddenly came out in the dense forest, and then Lie Prajna immediately felt that he was locked by an extremely terrifying breath.
Lie Prajna felt that his soul was surging. He looked at the tall tree canopy and the sky that seemed to be within reach behind the tree canopy. Finally, he stopped hesitating and waved his hand fiercely, and a large flag appeared in his hand.
During the high-speed flight, the big flag was blown by the strong wind and immediately unfolded with a "clatter". This is a golden flag, and all kinds of strange runes are printed on the flag. And at the top of the rune, the big word "light" is like the scorching sun, which can illuminate the earth and tear apart all darkness and obstacles!
In the dense forest, a middle-aged man rushed out. He was one of the old bandits. This middle-aged man has reached the realm of Yiyuan Tianxiu. Now he appears and directly attacks Lie Prajna with all his strength, leaving no room for him.
A green beam of light was shot out by the middle-aged man, and the powerful force was not something Lie Prajna could receive. However, when the beam of light was less than ten feet away from Lie Prajna, Lie Prajna did not need to do anything. The golden flag actually flew in front of Lie Prajna by itself, and a layer of protection was formed under the surge of golden light.
The next moment, the beam of light suddenly came into contact with the protective layer. The protective layer was as solid as a rock and remained unmoved. It was like a spirit, protecting Lie Prajna's body and rushing into the sky with the help of the impact force.
The middle-aged man's face changed. He obviously didn't expect that the big flag was so powerful. However, at this moment, it was impossible for him to chase Lie Prajna again. Because Lie Prajna had been protected to a high altitude, and even fled to the distance at a speed that surpassed Yiyuan Tianxiu.
In the depths of the dense forest, a slightly old voice came out: "Sir, don't you really need to chase that Asura man?"
After a silence, a young man's voice responded lightly: "No, this person is still interesting. Let him stay. Maybe he can help us in the future. If we don't have his help, wouldn't it be impossible for us to meet this time?"
On the high slope beside the valley, the battles in all directions have ended. The gap between Lie Prajna's army and the old bandits was too obvious. The old bandits had no casualties. On Lie Prajna's side, except for his final escape, there was only one seriously injured woman left, Yue Xiaoxian.
A large number of old bandits came out of the dense forest, many of them with blood, the blood of others. They were so powerful, just like the highest fighting force in charge of the heaven hundreds of years ago. Even if the lord of the world has changed, they are just mountain soldiers and are even called "bandits", but their military spirit is still there!
Yue Xiaoxian looked at the soldiers coming out from all directions. For some reason, she was not afraid, but a strange light appeared in her eyes. But in the end, she silently lowered her head and her eyes dimmed.
"Why keep her? She is just a running dog of the Asura people, more hateful than the Asura people!" At a certain moment, a person next to Yue Xiaoxian said this.
Then, Yue Xiaoxian heard a series of discussions like this. During this time, she didn't say a word until the end, when a group of old bandits decided to take her life.
"Do you have anything else to say?" Finally, a man stood up, holding a big knife, and came to Yue Xiaoxian.
Yue Xiaoxian looked up, smiled miserably, and said: "Since I was born, I have killed Asuras and fierce beasts, but I have never killed the people of the Heavenly Dao."
