What If I Can't Die?-Novel

380 Ambush

Boom! Boom! Boom!

After a few punches, the man and eagle were knocked down by him. A moment later, the two of them were under his Crowd Control. The Black-feathered Thunder Eagle had changed owners.

Song Shi sat casually on the back of the eagle, followed by Lei Xuan and his subordinates.

The others mocked Lei Xuan. “Didn’t you say that we’re timid and afraid of death? Why didn’t you commit suicide before you were controlled by him?”

Lei Xuan’s face darkened. How many people could be so ruthless as to self-destruct?

He said resentfully, “I joined because I couldn’t win. You guys won’t understand.”

His answer was a burst of laughter.

Song Shi had taken care of the strongest army of the Thunder Kingdom and completely intimidated the Wind and Thunder Kingdoms. All the invaders had retreated.

He left some of them behind and flew north in the black eagle.

At the pass between the Northern Six States and the Imperial City of Great Qian, the Li Nation and the Qian Nation each had a million troops. They faced each other, showing signs of forming the border of the Xin Nation.

On the plains outside the pass, the ground was covered in devastation. Corpses piled up like mountains. Both sides had fought many bloody battles here.

Emperor Qian sat in the army and looked down at the outside of the city with a frown.

“Your Majesty, Song Shi has gone to the border provinces and had already taken down the invading forces of the southern provinces.”

A minister came over to report the latest situation. It was the Virtuous Phoenix King.

“Did he solve all the problems in the southern states?”

Emperor Qian’s frown deepened. The more powerful Song Shi’s methods were, the more uneasy he felt.

“This person is too powerful. I keep feeling like I’m luring a wolf into my house.”

He muttered to himself. If he didn’t have a choice, he really didn’t want to work with this person.

“Father-in-law, you can’t curse after enjoying the benefits. Without me, Great Qian would be struggling to survive.”

Song Shi’s voice came from the Void, followed by the sound of thunder. Song Shi descended from the sky in a black eagle, bringing with him a Gust.

Emperor Qian’s expression froze. He waited awkwardly. “Why did you come here so quickly?”

“The wedding is about to begin. I can’t let you, my father-in-law, be pestered here and not be able to go attend, right?”

The light and shadow changed, and Song Shi landed on the city tower that was covered in sword marks.

At this moment, Emperor Qian also saw the black eagle that Song Shi was riding and immediately recognized it. “This is Lei Xuan’s Black-feathered Thunder Eagle. How did it become your mount?”

“They chased away the alliance army of the Wind and Thunder Nation for me already. They gave this to me, right, Lei Xuan?”

Song Shi turned around and a few cultivators from the Thunder Kingdom followed him. The Great Qian army was so frightened that they felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy.

Lei Xuan smiled bitterly. “Yes, I gave it to you, Young Master.”

Emperor Qian narrowed his eyes and pressed his hand down, telling his subordinates not to act rashly. He looked at Song Shi. “You subdued them?”

“They followed me willingly.”

Song Shi was full of nonsense.

Emperor Qian’s expression twitched. “You want to help me force the Li Nation’s army back now?”

“Why? You’re not willing? Then I’ll keep them for you to fight. You can have something to do in the future.”

Song Shi teased.

“It would be best if we can force them back. You should know that there’s a huge problem in the Imperial City now. We shouldn’t waste our manpower here.”

Emperor Qian helplessly allowed Song Shi to attack.

The latter glanced at the Li Nation’s camp and said in surprise, “This Li Nation is actually serious about this. They actually have so many troops.”

“They have long wanted to occupy the land of Great Qian. Even without the Sky Demon Cult’s rebellion, they would probably make a move. Naturally, they are well prepared.”

Emperor Qian’s tone was heavy. “They’ve formed a huge array that allows them to attack and defend. Furthermore, there are a large number of divine archers and they’re very difficult to deal with. If not for that, I wouldn’t have personally led the army north.”

Song Shi’s gaze landed on the pitch-black tents in the distance. There were huge carriages pulling what looked like altars.

Song Shi could tell at a glance that they were special Dharma treasures similar to array discs. These altars absorbed the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth and condensed into dark green pillars of light.

The pillar of light dispersed in midair and formed an energy barrier. It combined with the other altars and condensed into a huge Array Formation.

The Array Formation stretched for 1one hundred thousand feet, and there was a ten thousand-foot-tall platform in the center. There were teams guarding it at all times. Shield Soldiers, Archers, and soldiers were patrolling. It could be said to be a moving war fortress.

“They’re quite something.”

Song Shi was speechless.

“This is a combat technique that they have created in the past thousand years. It can fully utilize the advantages of their cavalry and archers.”

Emperor Qian sighed and said meaningfully, “Son-in-law, how do you think we can break through such an army?”

Song Shi turned to the sage-like Tian Jizi at the side. “You guys have been researching for so long, but there’s nothing you can do. I just came over. Do you think there’s anything? I think we should just go over and threaten them.”

Under the surprised gazes of Emperor Qian and the others, he flew towards the Li Nation army.

Although most of the million-strong army were ordinary people, their momentum was still rather terrifying. The aura of iron and blood assaulted their faces.

Song Shi did not hide his existence. He directly activated the phenomenon of the nine suns in the sky. The brilliant light could blind ordinary people.

“Who’s here again? Why is his oppressive might so terrifying?”

In the center of the army, on the high platform, Emperor Li, who was sitting in his seat, sensed the pressure. He suddenly stood up, and his eyes flickered. When he saw Song Shi, he was shocked.

“It’s him!”

Swish swish swish!

Rows of divine archers locked onto Song Shi as they stared at the blinding light. Their eyes stung and they could not help but cry.

Song Shi carried the Nine Suns. He looked at Emperor Li, who had already broken through to the Soul Transformation realm, and said, “For the sake of world peace, command your people to retreat. The enemy of this continent is the demons, not our own people.”

Emperor Qian’s face twitched after hearing what Song Shi said.

Who the hell would believe such words for the sake of world peace?

Emperor Li ignored his words and stared at Song Shi coldly. “I admit that you’re very capable, but most of the Li Nation is on the bitter and cold borders. What right do you have to occupy the most fertile land on the continent and not give us a share?”

“Aren’t you being too self-righteous?”

Song Shi was speechless. “That’s not impossible I suppose. It’s fine for your guys to integrate into Qian. In the future, you might even be able to establish a unified country. The sooner you join, the sooner you can feel at ease.”

“Now that Li Nation is occupying your land, who will integrate into who?”

Emperor Li sneered.

Song Shi looked down at everyone. “That’s true, but you’re so confident that you can continue to occupy it?”

Emperor Li mocked, “I’ve already heard that you’ve dealt with the people from the other countries. Do you think that Li Nation will sit still and wait for death like them?”

“What did you do?”

The expression of Emperor Qian, who had been listening at the side, changed. He instinctively sensed that something was wrong.

“I didn’t do anything. I just widened the spatial passageway under your Imperial City. Now, the Demonic Qi should have drowned the entire Imperial City.”

Emperor Li said cruelly.

“F*ck, you guys actually ambushed my house!”

Song Shi was stunned. Even he did not expect Congress Li to do this.

“Are you crazy? Why did you open the passageway? Once the Heavenly Demon Realm’s Devil Race comes here, not to mention Great Qian, the entire continent will suffer!”

Emperor Qian was shocked. He did not expect the Li family to do such a thing. While their attention was focused on this, they actually went to provoke the most dangerous hornet’s nest.

“You think too highly of yourself. Our Boundless Continent is just a lower plane. Now that the Spiritual Qi is depleting, how can the experts of the upper plane still be interested in this place like in the ancient times?”

Emperor Li scoffed.
