Chapter 75 - 75 75 Homesickness
75: Chapter 75 Homesickness 75: Chapter 75 Homesickness As Lin Xing rode swiftly away atop the girl’s head, Zhao Yuan and the Xingxiao Sect Envoy both gave chase fiercely.
With the flames exploding time and time again, the two parties moved at high speed while engaged in fierce combat.
Four fire dragons roared through the camp, igniting countless tents as they passed, and under the sky-high flames, soldiers were sent into a chaotic tumble.
Some wanted to raise their rifles and shoot at Lin Xing’s position, but they were immediately stopped by people from the Xingxiao Sect.
“No shooting allowed!”
“No one is to shoot!”
“Put all guns down!”
As the four fire dragons continued their onslaught and with the prohibition on firing at all, the entire camp descended further into chaos.
Seeing such mayhem, Zhao Yuan’s heart tightened abruptly, and he yelled, “We can’t go on like this; order the soldiers to fire, we must kill Lin Xing!”
The Xingxiao Sect Envoy rebuked angrily, “Fool!
No one is to fire.
Otherwise, you will be the enemy of the Xingxiao Sect, and you will never get a single bullet from us again.”
Looking at the resolute Xingxiao Sect Envoy, Zhao Yuan was both anxious and frustrated as he said, “If this continues, the army will start to panic; if the Heavenly Will Sect attacks now, we’re doomed.”
The Xingxiao Sect Envoy coldly responded, “Even so, we cannot kill Lin Xing.”
Zhao Yuan glared at the Xingxiao Sect Envoy before him, never having imagined that due to Lin Xing’s sudden emergence of overwhelming power, what he thought would be an easy capture had plunged him into such a dilemma.
But in the next moment, what he feared most happened.
The sounds of battle cries came from the city; the Heavenly Will Sect had opened its gates and sent out its armies.
As Zhao Yuan witnessed this scene, it was as if darkness fell before his eyes, and a feeling of heaven and earth shattering welled up within him.
Looking at the raging fires and chaotic state of the camp, he knew that with the Heavenly Will Sect’s attack, an utter rout of his forces was imminent.
Lifting his head, Zhao Yuan let out an angry roar, casting a begrudging glance at the receding figure of Lin Xing before shooting off like a bolt of lightning.
He no longer pursued Lin Xing; instead, he rushed toward Commander Zhang’s location.
With the complete collapse of the army before him, he had to break out quickly with the unconscious Commander.
Watching Zhao Yuan abandon the chase for Lin Xing, the Xingxiao Sect Envoy shouted furiously, trying to call him back, but Zhao Yuan didn’t even turn his head and disappeared among the disordered troops in an instant.
The Xingxiao Sect Envoy waved his misty sleeve, preparing to pursue Lin Xing alone, but the next moment, he saw that Lin Xing had not fled but instead charged at him atop the girl.
Talisman papers were drawn into his hand.
“Do you think you alone…”
Five…
six…
“are a match for me?”
Ten talisman papers unfolded in Lin Xing’s hand.
“Nature of heaven and earth, heed my command, rise, wind!”
A howling gale suddenly surged, causing a sandstorm within a hundred meters, making visibility nearly impossible.
The towering Yellow Turban Warrior bellowed angrily, and the tumultuous air turned into a tornado, tearing everything in front of it to shreds.
And in the next instant, the four fire dragons plunged into the tornado, becoming a Tongtian pillar of fire that smashed directly toward the Xingxiao Sect Envoy.
Facing the colossal fire pillar crashing down like the sky itself was collapsing, the Xingxiao Sect Envoy only had time to let out a roar, shielding himself with layers of mist, before he was engulfed by the terrifying flames.
While Lin Xing didn’t even bother to look, he continued to ride the girl and break out of the encirclement.
At first, there were a few soldiers trying to stop him, but he easily knocked them down with a flick of his hand.
Soon, no one stood in front of Lin Xing anymore, and before he realized it, the girl had carried him out through the main camp.
Looking back, the disciples of the Heavenly Will Sect were fervently shouting slogans, storming into the camp and beginning a chaotic onslaught.
The already tumultuous army nearly instantly collapsed upon contact, and a great rout commenced in the blink of an eye.
Watching the soldiers frantically flee and be pursued from all directions, Lin Xing’s eyes flashed with complexity.
Bai Yiyi, witnessing this scene, exclaimed in shock, “Commander Zhang is finished.”
Lin Xing nodded, “The lord of Dongya Prefecture may well be the Heavenly Will Sect from now on.”
He suddenly felt an urge to be listless, the homesickness that had been suppressed in the war further erupted, and Lin Xing, who felt he hadn’t returned for far too long, developed a strong desire to go and see for himself.
“Let’s go, Master Bai, let’s go home first.”
Bai Yiyi said, “Get down before you start talking.”
Before long, Lin Xing and Bai Yiyi arrived at a village.
He had just lain down in an abandoned old house when a sense of familiarity surged through him.
Arriving at a door, Lin Xing, holding the Puppet Girl cradling a cat in one hand and pushing the door open with the other, entered.
After a moment of haziness, Lin Xing regained his senses and found himself back in the modern world, in a hospital room.
…
At the same time Lin Xing left the Mirror World,
The followers of the Heavenly Will Sect were cleaning the battlefield.
Jing Shiyu stood atop the city walls, looking at the bodies strewn across the land, the desolation everywhere, and asked, “Have you found Zhang Tiande?”
A woman subordinate replied, “Zhao Yuan and Song Yi took Zhang Tiande and broke out.
We have already sent people to pursue them.”
Jing Shiyu said, “Apart from Zhao Yuan, Song Yi, and Zhang Tiande, there’s no need to waste energy sweeping for other deserters.
Issue notices in all the villages and towns, telling them that apart from these three main culprits who must be punished, all other soldiers are pardoned for their past actions, and if they wish to join the Heavenly Will Sect, that’s also fine…”
After a series of inquiries and arrangements, Jing Shiyu finally asked again, “Have you found Lin Xing?
What actually happened?”
The subordinate said, “According to some captives, it seems Zhao Yuan and Lin Xing had a conflict, and both sides fought fiercely.
Lin Xing cast a spell that summoned four fire dragons.
Later on, both parties fought fiercely in the camp, and many tents were set ablaze by Lin Xing’s spells, then…”
Listening to her subordinate’s story, Jing Shiyu first frowned slightly, with various speculations surging in her mind.
Then she thought about the continuous battles these past days, where she had almost never seen Lin Xing on the frontline.
With his mastery of talisman spells, he shouldn’t have been so inactive.
Associating the current internal strife with Zhao Yuan, she couldn’t help thinking, “Could it be because of me that Lin Xing was unwilling to exert himself in this battle?”
“Did he even cause internal discord, leading to the chaos in the army?”
Thinking this, Jing Shiyu suddenly smiled and ordered the subordinate by her side, “Continue searching for Lin Xing, and when you find him, don’t do anything superfluous.
Just tell him I want to meet him; I’ll be waiting in Upper River County.
He will naturally come.”
Just then, a commotion erupted in the front, as more and more followers gathered, apparently a conflict had occurred.
A subordinate ran up hurriedly and reported, “Holy Daughter, Jing Yuwei’s people want to steal our spoils of war!
The disciples are about to fight.”
Jing Shiyu looked coldly in the direction of the conflict, knowing that with Zhang Tiande’s defeat, a new round of struggle would begin.
It was as if this world never had a day of peace.
