Chapter 398: Chapter 326: Became a Father (Request for Monthly Ticket)
And at this very moment, dozens of miles to the northwest, the heavens and earth thundered mightily.
Blazing trails of light soared northward, and on the ground, a torrent of armored soldiers set the snowy plains ablaze.
Banners fluttered in the wind, emblazoned with the two characters for "Jiange."
"Boom, boom, boom"
Tens of miles away, in the midst of the vast heavens and earth, thirteen trails of dust and smoke howled into the air.
Across the snowy plains and forests, with iron cavalry trod and snow shook the mountains, banners fluttered like a steel torrent, their might swallowing thousands of miles like a tiger.
"Ja!"
"Ja!"
"Ja!"
Steeds trampling on snow, howling like the wind, tens of thousands of Cold Light Iron Armored Soldiers, spurring their horses northward at full speed.
With the pounding of hooves, shrill and resonant whistle calls wavered through the snowstorm, as messenger soldiers bearing bright red Command Flags weaved upstream through the torrent of cold armor, their orders flying swiftly!
"Hiss"
"Hiss"
"Heavenly Pass calls for urgency, a dispatch for the Colonels, proceed at full speed, no mistakes!"
Amidst the rolling snow and dust, the messengers’ voices were urgent and loud, echoing between heaven and earth.
Above, a succession of brilliant lights flashed by, revealing figures riding Exotic Beasts, each exuding an extraordinary presence.
Some dressed in plain clothes, others in Armored, their eyes glinted sharply, and their breath was that of Heavenly Pass Taoist Soldiers, around seven or eight of them, followed by dozens of Armored Soldiers.
"What on earth has happened at Tianxiong Pass?"
"Why is nearly the entire army from Jiange Pass mobilized?"
"What madness has befallen this dog-faced Wu Sheng?"
All these men were Sky Patrol Department Colonels, en route to Tianxiong Pass by way of Jange Pass, where they were shocked to see the Jiange Pass Mansion Army almost completely deployed. They followed, seeking clarification from the local Colonel Wu Sheng, only to be rigidly ignored as he only cared about marching with haste.
But they knew one thing for sure—a major crisis had occurred at Tianxiong Pass!
The Mansion Army of Jiange Pass was racing there at top speed!
Their hearts filled with deep apprehension.
Suddenly, a great howl swept through the heavens and earth.
The forces of Shu from all directions were rushing to Tianxiong.
And just at that moment,
"Li"
Amidst the swirling snow, a clear and piercing cry resounded like the surge of waves striking against the shore, cutting through the wind and snow.
Amidst the swirling wind and snow, a streak of silver light, swift as lightning, soared through the sky, stirring up a thousand heaps of snow, diving straight down, and following that, a silver shadow expanded rapidly, its massive wings spanning across the sky, sweeping past the thirteen trails of dust below.
The thunderous rumble of horses’ hooves paused for a moment, then a long neigh carried through as a glare of cold light burst forth, and cries of alarm vibrated in all directions.
While the silver giant wings skimmed swiftly at low altitude, reaching the vanguard of the thirteen trails of dust, there stood a figure in a white robe and Silver Armor, on a steed clad in green, with piercing golden eyes. His imposing figure fluttered in the wind, and the red plume on his helmet swirled, his eyes gleaming coldly beneath.
As the giant wings spread across the sky and cast their shadow down, a ferocious gale whipped the snow even more fiercely; the soldier, taken aback, looked up rapidly, and from his hand flew a Vajra Umbrella that spun and expanded in the wind.
In his view, a Fierce Gu Diao bird of prey, metallic all over and gleaming silver, exuded an immense pressure.
The General’s expression changed dramatically, and the Exotic Beast at his feet uttered a low growl, seemingly extremely fearful, but in a split second, a strangely familiar voice rang out.
"Colonel Wu, what has happened at Tianxiong Pass?"
In the brief pause that followed, between the horns of the Gu Diao, a figure in Green clothes appeared.
The General in the white robe and Silver Armor was none other than Jiange Pass’ Colonel, Wu Sheng.
Upon seeing the Green clothes atop the Fierce Gu Diao, Wu Sheng’s face showed a moment of shock, then relief as if he had found his anchor.
"Colonel Chen!"
"Hurry to Tianxiong Pass."
"Colonel Wei is trapped, and there’s a military revolt at Tianxiong Pass. There was a conflict with the Court-appointed Vanguard Army, and a woman named An Ge is caught in the midst."
Wu Sheng, just before dawn that day, received an urgent letter penned by Wei Zhong himself. The letter, nearly begging in tone, revealed the cause of the mutiny at Tianxiong Pass, pleading for Wu Sheng’s assistance. Wu Sheng immediately set forth, leading his troops northward.
The turbulent attitude of the Court’s Vanguard Army was vividly depicted in Wei Zhong’s letter, which highlighted the oppression of those related to the Nine Colonels by the Court’s forces, fueling Wu Sheng’s indignation.
Chen Yuan once saved Wu Sheng’s life at the Jiange Pass during the Demon Demon Tao Fruit Conference when Heavenly Pass Demons besieged Jiange Pass. Chen Yuan singlehandedly broke the encirclement, and since then his reputation and influence had grown to a point where Wu Sheng looked up to him. Wu Sheng was proud of his heart’s grand ideals.
He thought Chen Yuan would become the next Demon Suppression Envoy, but then came the Court’s announcement.
Clearly, there was disdain in his heart. In front of his subordinates, he openly cursed the ’damned Court’ for chilling the hearts of his brothers who shed blood and tears on the front lines. Although Jiange Pass was only two thousand miles from Tianxiong Pass, he had heard days earlier about the arrival of the new Demon Suppression Envoy with a large force. Unwilling to accept this, he had rebutted the Colonels who came to pay their respects after hearing the news.
Wei Zhong’s predicament made it impossible for him to stay calm, and he had no choice but to lead his troops on a thousand-mile rush.
Now that Chen Yuan had arrived, a surge of Heart Fire welled up, and he swiftly conveyed the situation in a terse exchange.
Amidst the soughing winds, atop the Gu Diao, Chen Yuan heard the urgent and grave words, and the faint golden specks in his pupils solidified into a point, turning into two fierce Golden Suns, suddenly ablaze. A terrifying aura roared forth from within him.
Dragon’s roar and phoenix’s cry reverberated, stirring the sky and earth, hailing celestial phenomena, silencing the wind and snow for miles around.
A Fierce and hostile energy began to rise at the corner of his eye, and then with a "bang,"
The suspended wind and snow around him erupted violently, forming whirlpools of snowflakes centered on him.
Following that, a golden light suddenly erupted in the boundless snow and wind; a giant figure rose against the wind, parting the snow in two directions—one condensed into a Fierce White Dragon, the other into a snow-white Phoenix.
