“Guo Jing, you are a rarely-seen talent!”

The East King of Yuan was wearing silver armor, which was absolutely clean in the mud. It was impossible to see his face that was covered by a helmet, but his eyes appeared aggressive.

“Surrender to me, and I'll ask the South King to treat and save your wife.

“Also, I can name you Lord of Xiangyang City. All the 100,000 people in the city will be your subjects. How does it sound?”

Extending his hand and plucking the silver spear that had already frozen a large area, the East King looked at Guo Jing who had killed and injured a hundred of his men with only three attacks and remarked with appreciation!

“East King, you flatter me.

“Unfortunately, I would rather be one of the common folk of Song instead of a lord of Yuan!

“However, I was told that the four kings of Yuan are in parallel with each other. You seemed to be implying that you could order the South King and even give t.i.tles to others. I wonder what your emperor would think of that.”

Guo Jing's voice was loud, and his inner strength was profound. Even though he didn't use any tricks such as Voice Far Away, the people across half of the battlefield could hear him.

“Humph, you are just trying to instigate trouble between us!

“I wanted to give you a chance to live, but you don't seem to cherish it. When the Xiangyang City is burnt to the ground, you'll regret what you said today!”

The East King became chilled and reticent. He raised his silver spear of ice, and snowflakes were flying in the sky. Then, boosted by his True Qi, they all moved towards Guo Jing like glittering stars!

“Roar!”

Guo Jing's reaction was merely a move of the Dragon-Subduing Strike. His True Qi raged out like a dragon!

Boom, boom, boom…

After a few attacks and counterattacks, the progress of the battle slightly shocked Ji Ye.

Guo Jing's Dragon-Subduing Strike was so powerful that the East King couldn't win the battle even though he was holding a weapon that contained Transcendent power!

Or rather, the East King seemed to be losing after only several moves.

“It seems that Guo Jing isn't just Extraordinary Rank-7, is he?”

“Is it possible that he has advanced to Extraordinary Rank-8?”

Riding the white Dragon Aura and floating above the wagon, Ji Ye was more or less confused as he watched their battle.

In The Return of the Condor Heroes, Guo Jing was theoretically a little bit stronger than Reverend Yideng and Huang Yaos.h.i.+, but he should be on par with Yang Guo and Zhou Botong.

At this moment, Ji Ye was as strong as Yang Guo and Zhou Botong without using any Transcendent equipment, and this East King was almost the same level too.

Yet the East King was not winning the battle against Guo Jing, who was supposed to be as strong as him, even though he was using a divine weapon.

“Huh, something isn't right.

“His own True Qi is still in the level of Extraordinary Rank-7, but his fist force seems to contain the power of a higher level!

“Some of Guo Jing's Transcendent features must've been kept because he is the central person on this Battlefield of Providence!”

Ji Ye speculated.

In a war of providence, both parties had central persons. The enemy's central persons were the Yuan emperor and the four kings, whereas those on Ji Ye's side were “Guo Jing” and “Huang Rong”.

Since the enemy had special skills and divine weapons, it would be unreasonable if Guo Jing had no buffs at all.

Those people were kings and emperor, so they were enhanced with special treasures and alike; Guo Jing was a great warrior, so his buff was based on his expertise in martial arts.

He wondered what buffs Huang Rong had received.

“Roar… Roar…”

While Ji Ye was thinking about that, the battle between Guo Jing and the East King was about to be over.

Two different dragon roars echoed at the same time.

Guo Jing pushed out his hands again, but this time, he wasn't performing the previous move. Instead, it was the “Dragon Rages”, which formed a yellow dragon that was created by a mixture of abundant sand and soil. It flew right towards the East King.

He waved his other hand up, and another invisible dragon aura soared straight up from the East King's feet!

It was exactly “Left and Right Inter-fighting”, Zhou Botong's ultimate technique that allowed one to use different martial arts in different hands.

It could also allow someone to perform two moves at the same time.

“This isn't right!”

The East King keenly sensed that something was wrong under his feet and jumped back.

“Roar!”

The invisible dragon power from the ground that missed its target melted into the yellow muddy dragon and made it even more unstoppable!

Theoretically speaking, if one perfectly mastered “Left and Right Inter-fighting”, one would be able to combine the moves and energy from both hands and make the attack even more powerful!

“Not good!”

Guo Jing was very strong. When the toughest Dragon-Subduing Strike was powered by the complete version of the Nine Yin Sutra, and since he was attacking with both hands, the East King could barely block the attack even though he was holding his ice spear with both hands. The dragon-subduing power cracked the silver ice spear and made him retreat while vomiting blood.

Even a weapon that contained Transcendent power could not resist the Dragon-Subduing Strike's toughest force in the world!

“East King, let me help you!”

However, the exclamation that sounded like the smash of a heavy hammer burst out.

A three-meter-tall giant who had a purple beard with most of his body parts naked charged in this direction while holding a pair of unbelievable huge silver hammers.

Dum! Dum! Dum…

His every step caused a one-foot hollow into the soil. Seeing that there wasn't enough time for him to approach his companion, he simply threw his two hammers at the dragon-subduing power!

Boom! Boom!

The two silver hammers were deformed and deflected by the yellow dragon-shaped aura.

“What a magnificent force!”

The brawny man looked slightly surprised.

But then, he seemed delighted that he found a worthy opponent. He didn't dodge the hammers that had been bounced back at a higher speed at all.

“Copper skin and iron bones. Ten feet of gold!”

He let out another roar that smashed everyone's eardrums. His skin instantly turned copper, and he was even taller than before.

He was the West King of Yuan, who was said to be strong enough to uproot a mountain and who could transform himself into a real man of metals.

Boom!

His metal body was apparently harder than the illusionary gold image of the previous hero. He was able to take the blast of the Dragon-Subduing Strike with only a slight change in his expression!

Thanks to the joint effort of the two kings, Guo Jing's combined force from the Dragon-Subduing Strike finally collapsed.

“You can't be kept alive!”

Looking at his ice spear that had cracks, the East King of Yuan said coldly.

“I'll lead the charge!”

The West King had already charged close with the silver hammers that had been partly deformed.

Even though Guo Jing had retained part of his Transcendent martial arts, he was still in grave danger, because his enemies had divine weapons and special skills that he didn't have.

Besides, those kings of Yuan were top experts. They were among the best of the Extraordinary Rank-7 too!

“Go surround him!”

“Block his retreat and don't let Guo Jing escape!”

Also, it must be noted that Guo Jing was still in the enemy camp.

Although the regular Yuan soldiers posed little threat to him, there were still experts who were above Extraordinary Rank-5 in the Yuan army. They were coming close from various corners of the battlefield.

Now that Guo Jing was stalled by the two Extraordinary Rank-7 experts, once he was completely surrounded by the Yuan soldiers, he wouldn't have been able to break free even if he were w.a.n.g Chongyang reborn.

After all, while the Dragon-Subduing Strike was powerful, it was extremely exhausting too. Even though Guo Jing possessed the Nine Yin Sutra, which was also Perfect, he couldn't use the technique freely.

However, while the Yuan kings had helpers, would Guo Jing, as the commander of Xiangyang City, have none?

Obviously, he did.

“Lightning!”

At this moment, a strange and intimidating voice echoed from the wall of Xiangyang City.

Then, a thin bolt of lightning fell straight down from the sky and hit the top of the West King's head.

In the next moment, the West King, who had turned himself into a complete metal man, fell to the ground with his eyes widened. His skin and his bones had all been liquefied by the lightning strike!

Clearly, he had been killed by the lightning strike!
