Allure of a Country Maiden
Chapter 378 - 376

Chapter 378: 376

"Brothers, charge! Don’t let Xiyue Country set up their Spirit Snake Array."

The snake was hidden under the yellow sand, barely visible.

Breaking the formation by killing the snake is impossible!

That’s why no one has ever successfully broken it, unless the one who controls it from behind the scenes could be found.

Xiyue’s Khan signaled his generals with a wave of his flag, pointing forward "Charge!"

The soldiers of both nations surged forward, starting a ruthless slaughter.

Strange sounds continued to resonate, causing both sides to fight with increased vigor under the eerie melody.

"You can live a long time and encounter all sorts of bizarre things," Xiao’er sighed to herself.

"Xiao Huang, can you break this Spirit Snake Array?" Xiao’er looked at the ground, occasionally seeing a spot where a quick surge indicated a snake was moving.

"Master, don’t be afraid, let’s allow the snake formation to take shape!" the golden python’s voice rang out in Xiao’er’s mind.

"I’m not afraid!" Xiao’er immediately denied, vowing not to show any fear towards her pet snake.

Xiao Huang bobbed its snake head, speaking quite earnestly, "Master, this time you indeed aren’t as scared." But she still was, nonetheless.

Xiao’er thought: Are all snakes this honest?!

Since the golden python suggested allowing the snake formation to take shape, it must mean that it’s capable of controlling the snake formation.

"Brother Shangguan, we’re about to witness the true Spirit Snake Array."

Shangguan Xuanyi gave her a glance, smiling yet not, nodding his head, "Does this little girl dare to watch?"

Xiao’er: What does his expression mean? Is he mocking me for being afraid of snakes?

Everyone is so unfair!

Actually, Xiao’er didn’t know, but when she mentioned the snake formation, she instinctively straightened her back more.

The melody reached a crescendo, and the Khan of Xiyue revealed a smug grin.

As if possessed, the soldiers of Minze Country began to attack their comrades.

General Li immediately shouted, "Clear your heads, everyone! It’s just an illusion! Don’t attack the wrong people!"

The Khan of Xiyue burst out laughing upon hearing this, "General Li, save your breath! It’s of no use! Haha! They won’t stop fighting amongst themselves until the last one falls."

"Damn it, I’m going to find the person responsible for controlling it from behind the scenes. Huh? What’s happening! Look, Sixth Brother! Look quickly!" Shangguan Xuanjun transitioned from gritting his teeth to utter surprise.

He vigorously pulled at Shangguan Xuanyi’s clothes, trying to get his attention.

Shangguan Xuanyi swiftly pulled his clothes back. He looked out over the battlefield without showing any surprise.

Shangguan Xuanjun felt the pain in his hand, pulling him back to reality. Seeing the serene expression on Shangguan Xuanyi’s face, what didn’t he understand?

"Did you do this?"

"No." Shangguan Xuanyi continued watching the spectacle below.

At that moment, the soldiers of Minze Country suddenly regained their senses, and quickly stopped their blades from striking their comrades.

"What a sight for sore eyes!" Each soldier thought to themselves, then swiftly turned their weapons around to face their true enemies.

Suddenly, it was the soldiers of Minze Country who were dumbfounded, as the soldiers of Xiyue Country turned on each other, initiating their own brutal internal bloodbath.

This desert is too eerie, could there really be such things existing here?

Some soldiers, particularly afraid of the supernatural, felt their skin crawl at this eerie spectacle.

General Li also noticed what was happening. He burst into laughter and addressed the Khan of Xiyue Country from a distance. "I managed to wake up my soldiers. Can you wake up yours? Why do they seem even more crazed?"

Then he gave the order to retreat amidst his laughter, letting them destroy themselves.

Upon receiving the order, the soldiers of Minze Country hurriedly retreated and watched the battle unfold from the sidelines.

"How is this possible!" The Khan of Xiyue Country watched the scene unfold in utter disbelief.

"Where is Tengmin? Quickly tell him to stop playing!" The Khan of Xiyue Country declared furiously.

Military strategist Chu Luo immediately ran back.

The rhythm of the music accelerated, making the soldiers even crazier!

With a small population in Xiyue Country, if this batch of soldiers were wiped out, Xiyue would cease to exist in this world!

Chu Luo found the First Prince, Tengmin, explained the situation and urged him to stop playing.

After hearing this, he was at a loss for words. Then, a sweet and foul taste welled up in his stomach. He spewed blood out in a large arc.

He had been hit with backlash.

Despite his injuries, he rushed out.

The music finally stopped!

But the killing continued!

"What’s happening? Why are they still fighting? The music has stopped, hasn’t it?" The Khan of Xiyue Country watched as his frenzied soldiers fell one by one, asking in heartbreaking despair.

Tengmin, despite his injuries, arrived at the scene. Seeing the soldiers still fighting each other, he mumbled, "How could this happen? This is impossible!"

He picked up his flute again, attempting to regain control of the snake array.

But the more he played, the more the snakes beneath the sand danced, and the more intense the soldiers’ slaughter became.

Watching more and more soldiers fall, the Khan of Xiyue Country roared, "Enough! Stop it! Stop playing!"

Shangguan Xuanyi rode up to them and threw a bag of snakes at Tengmin, "Prince of Xiyue! Return of your property."

The writhing movements from the bag gave him an inkling of what it contained.

Indeed, the bag wasn’t tied properly, and with the throwing motion, snakes fell out.

After the snakes in the royal hunting ground had mysteriously escaped control and run away, he had tried to retrieve them, but to no avail. It turns out they were controlled by him!

But how did he do it?

"Does your country have someone who can control snakes too?"

Shangguan Xuanyi remained silent, glancing at the warring soldiers behind him, the implication clear.

"Our country is vast and produces many talented people. We’re not a small country like yours, Xiyue. We refuse to be looked down upon by you. So, have you admitted defeat yet?"

The Khan of Xiyue Country couldn’t bear to watch his soldiers kill each other. He closed his eyes, clenched his teeth, and finally said, "Xiyue Country surrenders!"

With his proclamation, the soldiers, whose eyes were bloody with killing, finally halted their actions. Looking around in confusion, they were all at a loss about what had happened.

"Quickly retreat!" Yelu immediately ordered!

Upon hearing that, it suddenly dawned upon the soldiers what had just transpired: They had been controlled by their own Spirit Snake Array.

Remembering the characteristics of the snake formation, they stumbled and crawled to retreat as quickly as possible.

"Let’s go!" After the soldiers had returned, the Khan of Xiyue Country turned his horse around, ready to leave.

Trying to avoid paying the cost?

"Ladies and gentlemen of the snake world, please help me send off the generals of Xiyue Country, and remind them to send over the letter of surrender soon!" Shangguan Xuanjun, taking the benefits while feigning innocence, infuriatingly said.

The snakes all climbed out from under the yellow sand. They lined up and bowed towards the generals and soldiers of Xiyue Country, wagging their tails as a way of bidding farewell.

My god, the people of Minze Country have even taught the snakes to say goodbye!

No wonder they made a huge mistake with the Spirit Snake Array this time! Seeing this spectacle as they turned around, the soldiers of Xiyue Country were so scared that they ran even faster.
