The thirty thousand Snow Dragon Riders charged forward, then instantly froze, standing as still as statues.
Looking around, one sees a forest of spears and a chilling array of blades.
The warhorse neighed softly, exhaling white vapor.
The entire army was as silent as a mountain, yet it exuded a suffocating sense of oppression!
After witnessing these scenes, Fan Xian felt his blood and qi churning uncontrollably.
Indeed, the army before us was simply too imposing!
Chen Qingfeng stood at the front of the formation, his cold eyes like knives, scanning the army.
Immediately afterwards, a burly man dismounted from a warhorse at the front of the army and strode forward to Chen Qingfeng!
"Wu'an pays respects to the Commander-in-Chief!!"
The next moment, the 30,000 Snow Dragon Cavalry dismounted and knelt on one knee before Chen Qingfeng.
"Greetings, Commander 710, 10016! 55"
"Greetings, Commander!"
"..."
The sound gathered like a torrent, its echo stopping the clouds in their tracks.
As the wind rises, the battle flag flutters and roars, the large black flag with the white characters for "Chen" billowing in the wind like a raging dragon!
Upon seeing this, Fan Xian was overwhelmed with indescribable shock.
The shock he received from this Great Snow Dragon Cavalry was truly immense.
He had seen the Black Riders of the Overwatch Council and the Imperial Guards of the Palace.
But they are nowhere near comparable to the massive army before them.
The mere appearance of this Great Snow Dragon Cavalry was enough to awe people with its terrifying military might.
Shocked, Fan Xian looked at Chen Qingfeng, but didn't know what to say.
Deep down, she found herself increasingly unable to understand her older brother.
At this moment, Chen Qingfeng gestured for Wu An and the others to stand up.
"Wu'an, I want to test your strength."
After saying that, Chen Qingfeng turned to look at Fan Xian.
Upon receiving Chen Qingfeng's ill-intentioned gaze, Fan Xian was startled and quickly said:
"Brother-in-law, why...why are you looking at me like that?"
Chen Qingfeng smiled slightly and said:
"Otherwise, why do you think I called you along?"
"It would be good to spar with General Wu and verify each other's martial arts skills."
Before Fan Xian could reply, Wu An turned his gaze to Fan Xian, his cold eyes fixed on him, and cupped his hands in a fist salute, saying, "Please enlighten me!"
Fan Xian was stunned, feeling as if he had been betrayed by his own brother.
"call!"
He paused for a moment, let out a long sigh, and with a light step, leaped off his warhorse.
In recent days, Fan Xian has also made progress in martial arts, breaking through to the eighth rank, combined with his domineering true qi.
Even a ninth-rank martial artist could put up a fight.
Before long, Fan Xian and Wu An were facing each other from a distance.
Wu An stood there, his white armor imposing, a cold sword at his waist, his eyes like cold stars.
"General Wu, this is just a friendly spar; we'll stop here once we've made our move."
Chen Qingfeng gave a reminder, saying that with his abilities, he had already noticed it earlier.
Wu An's martial arts strength is at the ninth rank, while the 30,000 Great Snow Dragon Riders are all at the sixth or seventh rank.
In addition, some of the captains and generals were even at the eighth or ninth rank.
If such an army were to be deployed, it would be enough to sweep away everything.
Although he noticed these things, Chen Qingfeng still decided to let Fan Xian spar with Wu An.
Throughout the journey, Fan Xian kept calling him "brother-in-law".
If I don't suppress him properly, my younger brother might really rebel against the Heavenly Gang.
Upon hearing Chen Qingfeng's reminder, Wu An acknowledged the order and responded.
"Yes! Commander!"
Then, his gaze shifted and he looked directly at Fan Xian.
Fan Xian had already prepared to attack, and his domineering true energy was accumulating within him.
"boom!"
Without hesitation, he took the initiative to strike, causing the ground beneath his feet to crack and dust to billow as he flew towards Wu'an like a meteor!
Wu An stood still, his expression showing little change.
Just as Fan Xian was about to arrive, Wu'an made its move!
The cold knife at his waist was suddenly drawn!
In an instant, a dragon's roar seemed to resound between heaven and earth, and the blade light, as white as snow, slashed through the sky and fell straight towards Fan Xian.
?"Bang!"?
A deafening roar resounded across the area, and the shockwave exploded, shattering all the surrounding vegetation!
As the dust settled, it became clear that Fan Xian's domineering true energy had been shattered by Wu An's single strike.
Fan Xian himself was sent flying by the terrifying blade energy, crashing heavily to the ground and dazed.
"this?"
Fan Xian felt a churning sensation in his stomach, as if his internal organs were about to be displaced.
"Nine... Ninth Rank, Upper Grade!!"
He said in a daze, his eyes filled with disbelief.
He thought that Wu An was far superior to Cheng Jushu, who had been assassinated in Niulan Street.
Even Uesugi Tora, who came to intercept him before, is probably no match for him.
After thinking for a moment, Fan Xian got up from the ground, looked at Chen Qingfeng, and said:
"Brother-in-law!"
"That's not fair."
"He has a weapon, I don't! Isn't this bullying?"
Upon hearing what Fan Xian said, Chen Qingfeng smiled calmly, casually waved his hand, and the Dragon Slayer Sword hanging at his waist flew straight out of its sheath and landed in Fan Xian's hand.
Just as Fan Xian was about to say something, Wu An had already drawn his sword and attacked him.
"call!"
"boom!"
Wu An was incredibly fast, his movements as swift as a ghost, and his slashing strike in mid-air carried the domineering power to shatter cities and split mountains!
"what?"
Upon seeing this, Fan Xian didn't have time to think about anything else. He grabbed Chen Qingfeng's Dragon-Slaying Sword and raised it to meet the attack!
"boom!"
A terrifying explosion followed.
Fan Xian felt a numbness in his hand, and the hand holding the Dragon Slayer Sword felt like it was about to slip out of his grasp.
In addition, under the fierce force of the blade, his body slid straight backward.
Before Fan Xian could regain his footing, Wu An's blade struck again.
"Boom!"
As his true energy surged, a dazzling, cold light emanated from the blade.
With a single slash, it seemed to unleash the force of a thousand galloping horses.
"this?"
Upon seeing this, Fan Xian's pupils dilated in shock.
Wu An's attacks were relentless, giving him no chance to catch his breath.
"Hey!"
With a clenched jaw, Fan Xian raised his sword again, unleashing a torrent of domineering true energy that surged forth and accumulated on the Dragon Slayer Sword!
In no time, the swords clashed.
"boom!"
The true energy exploded, the earth shook, and dust rose into the sky.
Fan Xian grunted, his body was uncontrollably blasted away, and he crashed to the ground again.
A metallic taste filled his throat, and he nearly spat out a mouthful of blood.
At this moment, Wu An sheathed his cold knife, cupped his hands in a respectful gesture towards Fan Xian, and said, "I admit it!"
Having said that, he didn't even glance at Fan Xian again, and turned to face Chen Qingfeng.
Chen Qingfeng smiled with satisfaction.
It was obvious that Wu An had already held back.
Otherwise, with his younger brother's strength as an eighth-rank martial artist, he probably wouldn't even be able to withstand a single strike from Wu An.
