Takeda Shingen was no fool; he swung his Gunpei fiercely, fanning out three ’wind’ characters. He himself retreated explosively, aiming to delay time, waiting for ’Wind, Forest, Fire, and Mountain’ to cool down, while repeatedly screaming for his samurai retainers to come to his aid. Alone, he was essentially a support BOSS, only able to display his full strength with his army corps subordinates present.
"Die." Tang Zheng had no intention of letting him have another go; together with the warrior and the Monkey King, they surrounded and attacked the Demonic Shadow Daimyo from three sides.
Although Takeda Shingen’s individual attack was passable, he blocked Tang Zheng with a Tachi and even left a mark on the Light Defense Shield. But the next second, he was struck squarely by Sun Wukong’s Ruyi Golden Cudgel, and like a meteor, he fell from the Castle Tower.
The Monkey King followed suit, unleashing full firepower, fiercely assaulting Takeda. Even though he had been through Wind, Forest, Fire, and Mountain, Sun Wukong’s armor was tattered, with each strike still being explosively powerful, filled with an aggressive oppression.
Takeda was left clumsy in defense, struggling to cope, and after a humiliating tumble out, he swung his Gunpei fiercely, fanning out a ’forest’ character that shattered. This time, hundreds of Takeda’s red armoured soldiers appeared, orderly and with a severe killing intent, they brandished their long spears and charged at the Monkey King.
The victorious fighting Buddha, unafraid to face tens of thousands of cavalry head-on, let alone these small cavalry troops, swept through them with his Ruyi Golden Cudgel, overturning and massacring them to death.
Takeda Shingen was at a disadvantage. As the mission time limit rapidly approached, Tang Zheng and the warriors pounced, attacking with full force. The samurai no longer encircled Ruan Feifei and the others, but instead leapt down from the Castle Tower to race to the Daimyo’s side.
Song Huiqiao and Dongzi narrowly escaped disaster and were immensely relieved. Ruan Feifei’s fingers flickered with lightning, surging powerfully like a jungle, swallowing up those retainers. She felt it was the final moment and naturally did not want to miss the chance to snatch up points.
Jing Xiang hesitated briefly but still rushed to help, while Li Xinlan coughed up blood twice and refrained from further combat.
"Come on, he’s almost dead," Sha Ou reinvigorated, holding two Tachis, and started slashing wildly without any technique.
Tang Zheng stepped out of the battle circle, leaning on his Snowmaru, panting heavily. He couldn’t hold on much longer; though he hadn’t sustained a fatal injury, the extreme consumption of life energy left his body nearly depleted, with more than just dizziness and blurred vision.
"Bai Chuan, stop wasting your energy, prepare to move out." Ai Yixin drove through the chaos because she was not very familiar with the surrounding terrain, seemed a bit lost; moreover, her luck was particularly terrible. Just as they were about to finish off their pursuers, at the crossroad up ahead, hundreds more Kai Cavalry burst out, blocking their path.
The Iron cannons fired in unison, striking the cars.
"Ditch the car." Ai Yixin violently turned the steering wheel, and the car swayed to a stop in front of a department store on the roadside. Then, the housewife opened the car door and jumped out, staggering forward.
Chu Baichuan rushed down with the Howling Reaper, shooting at the cavalry while supporting his wife; his energy was drained, hanging on by sheer willpower.
Billionaire Li Hongda jumped out of the car, his large belly protruding, and ran towards the building without any hesitation, not caring about the couple behind him. If he hadn’t been concerned about their abilities, Li Hongda would have even contemplated shooting them in the back and using them as cannon fodder to attract the enemy.
The cavalry approached like a tsunami, the muzzles of the Bronze guns flickering with a lethal sheen.
Ai Yixin activated the Platinum Queen, undergoing whole body diamondization. The next moment, Chu Baichuan’s legs gave out, and he collapsed to the ground. Luckily, he let go of his wife’s arm in time, or else Ai Yixin would also have been dragged down.
"Run, don’t mind me." Chu Baichuan looked anxious, still not forgetting to shoot at the Kai Cavalry in an attempt to halt their progress.
At that moment, Chu Baichuan was in a sorry state because he had spent all his points on his wife. He was only wearing B-Class Protective Clothing, which was no match for the bullet onslaught. Metal had become embedded in his flesh, and Tachi slashes had marked his skin tens of times. He was drenched in blood, no inch of his body unscathed, as if he had emerged from a meat grinder.
"Bai Chuan..." Ai Yixin tightly pursed her lips, fearing her tears would distract him, but they still uncontrollably streamed down her face.
"Monkey King." Ai Yixin no longer held back the Great Saint Tattoo, even if it meant facing hundreds of cavalry and squandering the Monkey King’s combat power. But the housewife had to do this; otherwise, she might survive, but Bai Chuan certainly wouldn’t last. Get full chapters from N0v3l.Fiɾe.net
"Such a waste, you should have saved it to protect yourself." Chu Baichuan’s brow furrowed, never prioritizing his own safety, only thinking of ensuring his wife’s survival.
The volley of Iron cannon bullets fired, and Ai Yixin stood in front of Chu Baichuan, taking the bullets on her diamondized body, deflecting them all.
"What’s the point of living if you die?" Under the sunlight, the diamond-glazed Ai Yixin exuded an unusual beauty. Chu Baichuan let out a chuckle, then coughed up several mouthfuls of blood.
"It’s going to be okay; everything will pass." The Monkey King was mighty, massacring the Kai Cavalry effortlessly. After scanning the combat situation, Ai Yixin felt relieved.
"You treat me the best, wife," Chu Baichuan said with a smile, struggling to his feet, "Let’s go find Tang Zheng. Who knows what might happen next."
"Hurry up, you two." Li Hongda burst out again, climbing into the car, showing no intention of assisting Chu Baichuan, leaving Ai Yixin, pregnant for nine months, to support the nearly two hundred pounds heavy Chu Baichuan.
