Seeking the Tao in the Mortal World

Chapter 102: Unexpected Ending

After all the experienced generals were lost in Li Fire City, there were not many discerning people left in the West Savage Kingdom. At least the emperor and Prince Mang Zhan did not have keen judgment. They didnt expect the South Li Kingdom would attack with initiative instead of recuperating from the losses.

The whole kingdom was still breathing a sigh of relief at the withdrawal of Kingdom Qian troops. They were looking forward to a period of rest and recovery. South Li Kingdoms invasion shocked the West Savage Kingdom.

This misjudgment resulted in West Savage Kingdoms extremely slow response and complete lack of organized and decent defense. The South Li Kingdoms army was so unstoppable that they occupied all the cities along the way in a few days and reached capital of the West Savage Kingdom.

It was only then that Mang Zhan finally gathered the defeated army in the capital for the final battle.

Standing at the top of the city and looking at Li Qingjun who was waving her spear in the phalanx below, Mang Zhan looked a little dazed. A few days ago, he led his army to besiege her, thinking about how to capture and humiliate her when the city was breached But in just a few days, everything turned upside down. She led an army to breach his city now.

Mang Zhan was just a mediocre martial artist. No matter in terms of strategy or strength, he was far behind his old enemy Li Qinglin. When he was sent to South Li Kingdom as an envoy, his spear was knocked away by Qin Yi who had not yet broken through to the Innate Stage. His aptitude wasnt really that good. It should be said that he himself felt that Li Qinglin was his old enemy. In fact, Li Qinglin didnt put Mang Zhan in his eyes at all. The two were never on the same level.

But Mang Zhan was not a prince. He was indeed a veteran general who was accustomed to fighting on the battlefield. He had been involved in at least many invasions of the South Li Kingdom. He was also more mature politically than his brothers. After Mang You and other generals died in Li Fire City, he, Mang Zhan, became the last pillar of the West Savage Kingdom.

With such an enemy defending the last capital, this war wouldnt be easy.

This war decided the fate of 2 kingdoms. If the capital was breached, then the West Savage Kingdom would perish. If the defense was successful, the South Li Kingdom would collapse.

Woo The low horn sounded, and the war drums resounded in the sky. The South Li Kingdom army carried ladders and braved arrows to reach the city wall. From a distance, one side of the city wall was covered with people like a swarm of ants. Rolling logs and boulders fell on the city. Some of the soldiers climbing up screamed and fell, but the brave ones behind continued to climb without fear of death.

Some generals with higher martial arts skills used the ladders and the shoulders of the soldiers to climb directly to the top of the city in a few steps.

There were firelights and black smoke everywhere. Under the snow, two seemingly different worlds merged into one.

Qin Yi felt a sense of detachment watching from a distance.

This seemed like human life was no longer human life. Instead, it was more like ants. He seemed to understand the perspective of Ming He when she looked at mortal

He took a peek at Li Qingjun. Li Qingjuns expression was cold and solemn without any sign of weakness or sympathy.

Qin Yi knew this was normal.

The past 2 months had made her innocence mature. Her makeup was locked in the cabinet, and she put on a blood-colored military robe and cold iron armor. Now Li Qingjun was a rapidly growing general.

She already had this talent just like the spear that rushed toward the spider beastkin in the rain.

In this kind of decisive war with thousands of troops, Qin Yi couldnt help much on the battlefield. Although he had some AOE skills, their range was not large, he couldnt use them, and it was easy to friendly fire.

But he could play some very special supporting roles.

On top of the city wall, Mang Zhan was forcing a South Li Kingdom general back with a spear. Suddenly, a soldier beside him shouted in horror, Prince, Prince The sky

Mang Zhan turned around and widened his eyes.

Hundreds of South Li Kingdom elites, who took off their armor and wore only their tight robes, flew up to the city wall

What the hell is this? The people of the South Li Kingdom can even fly? This is not fair!

It was not that people of the South Li Kingdom could fly, but Qin Yi quickly crafted a hundred Floating Talisman and controlled the direction of floating. His limit was only a hundred, and the speed was not fast.

But even so, it had brought disaster to the defense of West Savage Kingdom.

Several South Li Kingdom elites were shot down in flight, but most of them landed in the city. They attacked everyone they saw and went straight to the city gate.

This caused them a huge trouble. Mang Zhan anxiously sent people down to the city wall to deal with the elites, but Li Qingjun made a move outside the city wall.

Taking advantage of the chaos, she led the last of her loyal soldiers and rushed straight to the city gate.

Before she arrived, the power of the spear light had already poked heavily into the gap in the city gate.

The city gate shook.

Kong, Qin Yi smashed the chain on the side of the city gate.

Under attack from both inside and outside, the city gate finally opened.

Thousands of troops swarmed in. Li Qingjun looked neither sad nor happy. She just went straight to Mang Zhan.

Qin Yi sighed. This should be it, right

At this moment, Liu Sus voice came from mindsea, A strong person is approaching, be careful!

Qin Yi was shocked. Dust rose in the distance. The flying snow all over the sky was swept away. A vortex formed in the air. Someone was approaching quickly.

In just an instant, the person had arrived at the top of the city wall, looking indifferently at the battle below.

This was a strong person who looked like a savage. He had a naked upper body, bare feet, a tiger skin around his waist, a necklace of bones and teeth around his neck, a wooden staff in one hand, and a scimitar in the other.

A terrifying aura enveloped the battlefield. The soldiers who were fighting fiercely were subconsciously frightened by the evil aura and stopped.

There was total silence on the battlefield.

Li Qingjun and Mang Zhan exchanged a blow and retreated subconsciously. They were shocked and confused.

Mang Zhan didnt know who the person was, and neither did Li Qingjun, but such a change was beneficial to the West Savage Kingdom. Whats more, the appearance of this man looked like a tribe member in the early days of the West Savage Kingdom Could he be a great shaman who lives in seclusion in the West Savage Kingdom?

Mang Zhan said in surprise, Senior you seem to be very similar to the portrait in my ancestral temple

Ancestral Temple The person spoke in a loud voice, Is your surname Mang?

Mang Zhan said, Yes, my name is Mang Zhan, the prince of West Savage Kingdom.

Prince this kind of mainland title is so vulgar. Never mind the South Li Kingdom, why are we even following this thing?

Mang Zhan,

The person said coldly, It seems that it is you who disturbed my retreat by praying and worshiping our ancestors. How ridiculous. You are actually going to be destroyed by the South Li Kingdom?

Mang Zhan was surprised and happy, Are are you really our ancestor? Our ancestor is really alive?

Qin Yi and Li Qingjuns hearts twitched at the same time.

The West Savage Kingdom has an ancestor who cultivates in voodoo arts?

This is bad

The person said coldly, More than 90 years ago, if I hadnt secretly helped you, your ancestors would have been wiped out in a tribal war. How could you have unified all the tribes and established the West Savage Kingdom?

Mang Zhan was ecstatic. He pointed at the South Li Kingdom army, These enemies invade our homeland

Qin Yi suddenly interrupted and said loudly, Tao friend, can you stand this?

A fragrance blew, and a stunning female crown appeared in the field, Are you Venerable Mang Shan? Celestial Pivot Heaven Palace, Ming He pay my respect.

Qin Yi breathed a sigh of relief.

It int appropriate for a high-level cultivator to interfere in the mortal war. Ming He can only watch, but if other cultivators intervene, it will not only be a mortal matter. Ming He should show some help At least she claims to owe me a favor because of the sword array

I never imagined that this would turn out like this. If Venerable Mang Shan is so badass, why would the South Li Kingdom and West Savage Kingdom be at loggerheads for hundreds of years?

Venerable Mang Shan looked at Ming He and showed his first smile since he appeared, Celestial Pivot Heaven Palace, it seems that you are from The First Hall, not bad. Greet your distinguished master for me when you return.

His attitude toward Ming He was much better than that toward his descendants

Ming He bowed and said, Understood, Venerable.

Venerable Mang Shan smiled slightly, Are you Celestial Pivot Heaven Palace on the side of the South Li Kingdom people?

Ming He shook her head and said, Junior is just watching. Mortal matter will be handled by mortals. It is against the rules for you and me to interfere.

Who said I was going to intervene Venerable Mang Shan suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed at Mang Zhan.

With everyone stunned, Mang Zhan didnt even have time to scream, and he burst into a pile of meat.

Ming He frowned and asked, What does this mean, Venerable?

I have been thinking about the reason why Im stuck in the Nascent Spirit Stage for this hundred years. Venerable Mang Shan said faintly, I just woke up after receiving the prayer today, then I have an enlightenment. If I stay away from the mortal world and forget about my descendants, wont my mind be free? If Im bound by kinship and act when there is a prayer, then it is just a self-deception. This is the reason Im stuck.

Ming He,

Venerable Mang Shan took a step in the air and arrived directly at the palace of the West Savage Kingdom. I will put an end to this mistake and let everything go silent.

A huge footprint slammed down from the sky, turning the West Savage Kingdom palace into ruins. In the smoke, Venerable Mang Shan strode far away, never looking back.

Qin Yi opened his mouth wide and looked in the direction he left. He couldnt react to it even until this moment.

This is

Did he kill his own descendants?

Is this the tao? He couldnt help but ask Ming He.

Ming He was silent for a moment, His tao is different, but this is indeed the tao.
