Chapter 52: Attacking Flowing Sand Valley 2
The divine dragon tore through the air, directly charging through and slaughtering all the bandits guarding the exit. Dragon roars echoed beside their ears, reverberating without end.
They broke straight through the bandits’ blockade and pressed forward without hesitation, advancing deeper inside.
Large numbers of soldiers rushed into the valley. They did not attack immediately, instead forming ranks at the first opportunity.
Within the valley was a massive square. The center of the square was empty, while two groups of men stood on either side.
Directly ahead, there were indeed two men who had long since been waiting there. Behind those two men was an even larger, densely packed mass of bandits.

After taking in the information of the two leaders at the front, Xiao Wen’s expression remained calm, without the slightest worry.
“General, one each?” Xiao Wen said, looking at Ma Chao.
Ma Chao nodded. He pointed the Profound Heaven Sky-Piercing Spear in his hand straight forward, aiming directly at Bian Xi.
Xiao Wen tightened the reins and slowly rode out. Looking at Mo Fei, he held the Profound Spirit Battle Halberd in his hand, its blade angled toward the ground. A sharp glint faintly flashed through his eyes.
“General Lu Cheng, leave those two leaders to us. The rest of the bandits are yours,” Xiao Wen said.
Lu Cheng nodded and raised his hand. The soldiers behind him formed ranks, their eyes fixed on the bandits ahead as they gathered momentum, ready to strike.
“I am Ma Chao. I have come to challenge your generals. Do any of you dare to fight?”
Ma Chao stepped forward, his gaze falling on Bian Xi. A fierce look immediately flashed across his brows.
“Arrogant rat! How dare you? Kill!”
Bian Xi roared, his eyes fixed straight on Ma Chao, as though flames were about to burst out of them.
He immediately charged out without a horse. The meteor hammer in his hand swung with waves of bloody wind, sweeping horizontally through the air. The enormous pressure of the wind pressed against the chest, making it hard to breathe.
The meteor hammer swept forward without losing momentum, smashing directly toward Claw Yellow Flying Lightning beneath Ma Chao, its force so fierce that it seemed intent on grinding the precious horse into minced meat.
Ma Chao’s expression turned solemn. Not daring to be careless, he slapped Claw Yellow Flying Lightning beneath him with one hand.
Neigh...
A shrill neigh rang out. Claw Yellow Flying Lightning immediately raised both front hooves, avoiding the sweeping hammer. There was even a hint of mockery on the horse’s face.
Its raised hooves suddenly kicked forward. With a sharp sound of breaking wind, they landed directly on Bian Xi, sending him stumbling several steps backward.
Mm, a front kick from a horse!
Not very damaging, but extremely insulting!
“Damn it!”
Bian Xi’s eyes widened. Blood vessels could even be seen surfacing in his pupils, and his entire body instantly sank into a state of extreme fury.
With a loud shout, he smashed the meteor hammer forward again.
Ma Chao sneered, completely unconcerned. The Profound Heaven Sky-Piercing Spear in his hand moved, lifting slightly forward. The spear tip struck directly beneath the falling meteor hammer.
His wrist raised the spear shaft and trembled lightly. In the next instant, a smooth, circular force could be felt flowing through it. With a sudden upward lift, he neutralized the meteor hammer’s downward force, then followed the momentum and flicked it upward, sending the meteor hammer flying.
After the meteor hammer was knocked aside and lost its force, the Profound Heaven Sky-Piercing Spear in his hand stabbed out repeatedly, bringing wave after wave of air-rending sounds through the sky.
Spear force surged out one wave after another, striking toward Bian Xi. Seeing this, Bian Xi hurriedly withdrew the meteor hammer, using the hammer body and chain to block Ma Chao’s thrusting spear.
Then, seizing the opportunity, he attacked. Sweeping left and right, he pressed down on Ma Chao, but every strike was blocked by Ma Chao’s spear.
As the two exchanged blows, neither side could determine victory in a short period of time.
Parry. HP -1.
Parry. HP -2.
...
A string of red damage numbers floated above their heads, but they were all insignificant minor injuries.
“Looks like Ma Chao is in a pretty good mood today. He’s actually willing to play with him for a while longer. Fine then. I’ll slaughter this guy in front of me first!”
Xiao Wen’s gaze landed on Mo Fei. A savage smile appeared on his face as he held the Profound Spirit Battle Halberd in one hand and strode forward. Looking at Mo Fei, he attacked directly.
The Profound Spirit Battle Halberd danced in his hand and stabbed forward.
Sharp energy rushed toward Mo Fei’s face. Naturally, Mo Fei did not dare show the slightest negligence. The Water-Fire Staff in his hand swept out, stirring up gusts of violent wind in the air as it struck straight toward Xiao Wen.
Xiao Wen’s expression was solemn, but he showed no intention of retreating. He watched Mo Fei’s movements closely.
With just one glance, he discovered several openings.
He withdrew backward, taking a small half-step back and dodging the staff.
The Black Iron Staff swept past his face. The sharp force brushed across his cheek, leaving a few minor scratches. A red damage number flashed above his head.
HP -10.
Xiao Wen did not care at all. He simply attacked.
The Profound Spirit Battle Halberd stabbed out.
A sound of breaking wind instantly rang out. Fierce energy tore through the air, as if piercing through the void itself. The halberd reached Mo Fei in a single strike, and its blade slashed directly across his chest.
Thud!
A muffled sound rang out, followed by a low, pained roar from Mo Fei’s mouth.
Armor Break! HP -877.
It could be seen that Xiao Wen’s halberd strike had directly split open the armor on his chest, leaving behind a wound over a foot long and an inch deep.
However, just as Xiao Wen’s halberd blade was about to slash downward and expand the result, Mo Fei used his free hand to grab the blade, preventing it from cutting deeper.
“You’re quite a man. But that still won’t change the fact that you’re going to die.”
Xiao Wen spoke in an extremely calm tone.
Immediately after, his wrist trembled, causing the halberd blade to vibrate. It directly shook Mo Fei, who was gripping the blade, away.
Then, the battle halberd in his hand continued without losing momentum. He struck Mo Fei’s body with the flat side, sending him staggering backward.
Knockback. HP -255.
After knocking him back, red damage numbers appeared. Xiao Wen did not hold back. Golden light burst out from the Profound Spirit Battle Halberd in his hand.
A sharp glint erupted from the tip and attacked straight ahead.
In that instant, a dragon roar suddenly rang beside their ears.
Skill, Dragon King Break!
The moment the dragon roar sounded, Mo Fei saw a black shadow flash before him. Immediately afterward, his chest turned cold.
He lowered his head and looked down, only to see a sharp blade stabbed into his chest.
The Profound Spirit Battle Halberd!
Critical Hit! HP -1999.
Red damage numbers floated up. Mo Fei silently collapsed to the ground, clearly without any trace of life left.
At the side, Ma Chao, who was still locked in battle with Bian Xi, saw this. A faint smile appeared on his stern face. Looking at Bian Xi in front of him, he sneered.
“The battle on my lord’s side is already over. I will not play with you anymore. It is time for you to go accompany that brother of yours!”
The next moment, Ma Chao’s battle intent suddenly surged. Gripping the Profound Heaven Sky-Piercing Spear with both hands, he struck out abruptly.
Combination Attack Skill, Chaos Across the Eight Directions!
One spear broke armor.
Two spears knocked back.
Three spears pursued.
Then he followed through and pierced him to death.
Bian Xi, dead!
