Just as the King of Punishment subordinate thought that he was about to succeed, a scorching hot feeling suddenly came from behind him.
Not far away, a volcano gushed out, smashing straight towards him.
With a "hong" sound, the King of Punishment suffered heavy injuries.
"Who dares to sneak attack my King of Punishment's army!"
The leader's face darkened as he shouted towards the distance.
"General Xiong, you're back!"
Different from the enemies on the other side, the soldiers of Dengzhou City were extremely excited, thinking that Xiong Ke had returned.
"That's great! Once General Xiong returns, those people will definitely die without a burial ground! "
Everyone cheered, and even the high-ranking officer felt a lot more at ease.
Not far away, a slim figure gradually approached, the eyes of the King of Punishment cultivator squinted.
"Who are you? This is a matter between my Beiming Nation, why do you want to become enemies with my King of Punishment! "
Not far away, Li Chen's face was filled with mist, and he did not reveal his true appearance, because he did not want others to know that he had appeared in the northern region.
However, this did not affect his goal in killing the people from King of Punishment.
Seeing that the person who spoke was thin and thin, and not General Xiong himself, the people of King of Punishment heaved a sigh of relief. He was truly afraid that General Xiong would appear, because that would mean that Wan Shenchong had failed.
The consequences of Wan Shenchong's failure were absolutely beyond his imagination.
Not only the people from the King of Punishment, even the people from the other Dengzhou City began to calm down, because they realized that it was not Xiong Ke.
Xiong Ke was tall and big, although he was tall, he did not have Xiong Ke's well-developed muscles. Although the other party had already taken action, they did not know whether he was an enemy or friend, but they did not know what their goal was.
Li Chen sneered a few times: "Who I am is not important. What's important is that I only have one goal, and that is to kill you!"
That person was shocked, but continued with a sneer, "What an arrogant brat, you actually dare to spout nonsense! Do you really think I'm a vegetarian? "
Li Chen was too lazy to waste words, he leaped up and rushed down, the light in his hand was extremely bright as he rushed towards the leading officer.
"You're courting death!"
The officer bellowed, his body releasing a ray of golden light, he was about to rush forward to force Li Chen to retreat.
Boom!
The man flew out, spitting out a large mouthful of black blood, he looked at Li Chen in disbelief.
"Who are you!"
The man was shocked. His arm was dripping with blood, and he looked extremely terrifying.
However, the man was extremely shocked in his heart. He couldn't care less about the pain in his arm.
"An old friend of the King of Punishment ?"
Li Chen slowly walked forward and said these four words. Whether it was on good terms or bad, it was up to others to think.
When the subordinate of the King of Punishment heard that, he could not even think straight, "Then what do you mean? You and I are serving King of Punishment together, why would you want to kill me? "
His arm was almost broken, and it was hard for him to stand up.
Li Chen laughed coldly, "You are mistaken."
Saying that, Li Chen's fist once again released a gold light, and directly smashed apart the man's head.
The cruel scene in front of them caused the people of King of Punishment to instantly turn into stone. When Li Chen coldly lifted his body, everyone screamed in fear.
Their leader was already dead. What were they still doing here? Hurry up and run!
Li Chen did not kill them, but chose a few stronger ones and killed them immediately.
"Chase!" Kill! Kill all of King of Punishment's traitors. "
The Dengzhou City let out a shout, and with a leap, Li Chen leapt onto the city wall.
Although the soldiers below were shouting about killing the people of King of Punishment, they did not run far, they only scared the people of King of Punishment away. After all, they did not have the ability to keep all the people of King of Punishment here.
Even so, this was enough to make them excited.
After the surrounding area calmed down, Li Chen turned to look at the few generals not far away.
The generals walked over to Li Chen and bowed, "Thank you, Hero, for saving me!"
"You're welcome, I'm just being asked by General Xiong." Li Chen said, and helped everyone up.
"Has the hero seen our general?" One of the general's eyes lit up, and looked at Li Chen.
What they were most afraid of was that Xiong Ke would die just like the people from King of Punishment said. To them, that would be a devastating attack.
"Yes, they should be back soon. Get ready to open the gate!"
Li Chen said.
One of the generals was a little hesitant, "What if the King of Punishment's men come back and open the city gates?"
"With me here, I will definitely make sure they will not be able to return! "Just open it!"
Li Chen said indifferently.
The leader clenched his teeth. The calmness on Li Chen's body made them feel more or less at ease.
He immediately ordered the gates to be opened.
About fifteen minutes later, they saw a few figures outside the city gate.
"General Xiong is back!"
Those with sharp eyes immediately recognized Xiong Ke's tall figure.
"The hero really didn't lie to us!"
The general of Dengzhou City almost broke down in tears of gratitude. God knows how scared they were of Xiong Ke coming back just now, and they only half believed and half doubted his words.
Not long later, Xiong Ke and the rest arrived at the Dengzhou City.
Because they had won the battle, Xiong Ke immediately ordered a good celebration tonight.
On the other side, Xiong Ke was also extremely grateful to Li Chen.
After hearing the general's description, Xiong Ke understood that the situation at that time must have been extremely dangerous.
Although Xiong Ke was tall and big, he was still very shrewd and was not someone who was without schemes. He knew what it meant to the people of Dengzhou City.
As long as he did not die, the people of Dengzhou City would always have hope.
If he died, the entire Beiming Nation would truly be the world of the King of Punishment.
Looking at the smiling Xiong Ke, Li Chen suddenly had a sense of comprehension.
Don't look at Xiong Ke's glorious appearance. In fact, he had already been severely injured, but he had no choice but to pretend as if nothing had happened in front of so many generals.
After the banquet, when Xiong Ke was about to return to his room, Li Chen finally met Xiong Ke once more.
"Aren't you tired of disguising yourself like that?" Li Chen said indifferently as he looked at Xiong Ke.
At this time, Xiong Ke's face had already turned a lot paler, but he still did not reveal the slightest hint of pain.
His current state could deceive others, but it could not fool Li Chen. He did not try to conceal his identity, and casually patted on the side of the stage: "Sit!"
Li Chen sighed, and sat beside Xiong Ke.
"What did you get for defending Wan Tongtian?" Li Chen asked.
Xiong Ke laughed at this moment, "Who said I am the emperor?"
Li Chen was startled, he looked at Xiong Ke, only to see that Xiong Ke's eyes seemed to be sparkling and translucent.
"What have I, Xiong Ke, suffered from? What kind of wealth have I not enjoyed before? Even if I die in this life, I will not feel any regret." Xiong Ke said with a self-deprecating smile.
Li Chen did not speak, he only looked at Xiong Ke.
"I'm asking you, what do you think will happen if I die?"
Li Chen muttered to himself. With his many days of understanding, he finally understood the meaning of Xiong Ke's words to the Beiming Nation.
"Once you die, the King of Punishment will definitely lead people to destroy Wan Tongtian's territory, and the Beiming Nation will become his."
A complicated look flashed through Xiong Ke's eyes: "Others may not know what kind of person King of Punishment is, but I do know that for my own goal, I can use any means I want, and now I am allowing my subordinates to absorb the blood essence of a warrior, this is something that heaven cannot tolerate, if he becomes the emperor, then I'm afraid that the Beiming Nation will fall into a abyss of suffering!"
Xiong Ke analyzed the situation of the Beiming Nation calmly.
"But Wan Tongtian is also not a good person." Li Chen said straightforwardly. He was not from the Beiming Nation, and his own strength was strong, so he naturally did not care if Beiming Shang said bad things about Wan Tongtian or was an offense to the Emperor.
However, Xiong Ke did not care if Li Chen's words were disrespectful to him.
"Although he is also selfish and cold-blooded, he can still listen to me. Furthermore, as long as I am here, the people of Beiming Nation will not suffer." Xiong Ke said directly.
How much influence he had on the Beiming Nation could be seen from these.
Although Wan Tongtian was afraid of Xiong Ke's strength, he knew that Xiong Ke would not rebel.
Li Jun suddenly understood what kind of person Xiong Ke was in Beiming Nation.
He did not do it for himself, for the citizens of the Beiming Nation at dawn.
He was someone who truly cared for the people.
Such a person was naturally loved and respected by others.
"I, Xiong Ke, am not someone who has gone through hundreds of battles. Back then, I have attacked countless cities but I have never allowed my soldiers to take the lives of civilians. If you want me to abandon the city, only if I die!"
As he said that, Xiong Ke's body started to exude a strong power. That power was not substantial, but was his personality and charisma.
Li Chen couldn't help but to praise him in his heart. He sincerely felt that Xiong Ke was a very great person.
"However, I'm afraid that the injuries on your body will not be able to last much longer." Li Chen said.
From his point of view, the injuries on Xiong Ke's body were definitely not light, but Xiong Ke had never said the same thing, which also made Li Chen admire him.
"So what if I die on the battlefield!" Although Xiong Ke's words were bold, the look in his eyes dimmed.
Naturally, he knew how serious his injuries were.
In his previous battle with Nangong Jue, his body was already destroyed by the Evil Qi, and in the end, he did not even improve. If he was at his peak, let alone one Wan Shenchong, even if there was a second Wan Shenchong, he would not lose.
Li Chen placed a hand on Xiong Ke's meridians. He wanted to know how serious the damage he received was.
Xiong Ke did not refuse, he had already been suppressing these words for a long time now, and he could not speak of them to his subordinates, even if he was injured.
When he felt the spiritual strength's chaos in Xiong Ke's body, Li Chen was immediately stunned.
The Evil Qi had long permeated into his body, mixing together with the spiritual strength and making a mess.
No wonder Xiong Ke and Wan Shenchong were defeated so badly.
Li Chen sighed as he truly started to admire this man.
