Chapter 32 The Lord of the Underworld Reveals His Blade, A Trick Hidden Within the Rescue
The pain in my back was excruciating.
Li Hui's vision went black.
A metallic sweetness rose in my throat.
He forced himself to turn around, staggering.
The long sword rested on the city bricks.
The knuckles turned white from the exertion.
[Li Hui's anger blazed]: Gao Ding, you scoundrel!
They took advantage of my unpreparedness and attacked me in the dark.
If the crucial task of defending the city is neglected.
I will tear you to pieces!
Gao Ding saw that he had succeeded with a single blow.
His eyes were filled with even greater madness.
The short stick whistled through the wind.
It slammed down on Li Hui's face again.
"Li Hui, today is your death day!"
He roared.
The moves are ruthless.
Completely disregarding their own safety.
I just want to fight to the death.
A cold glint flashed in Li Hui's eyes.
The instant I dodged to the side.
The longsword swept horizontally in the direction of the attack.
It struck precisely on the haute couture wrist.
A crisp "snap" sounded.
The short stick in Gao Ding's hand fell to the ground with a thud.
"ah--"
The excruciating pain caused Gao Ding to let out a scream.
He clutched his bleeding wrist and retreated repeatedly.
His eyes were filled with resentment and bitterness.
[A roar echoed in the mind of the haute couture goner]: No! I cannot lose!
Lord Sima Yi's reinforcements will soon enter the city.
I haven't taken back Yuexi yet!
Li Hui stepped forward slowly.
The long sword was aimed directly at Gao Ding's throat.
His tone was icy cold: "Haute couture."
"You colluded with Cao Wei and caused chaos in the south."
"Today, there's no escape!"
Just now.
A deafening roar came from beneath the city gate.
Li Hui glanced at it out of the corner of his eye.
A chill ran through him—the city gate had been smashed open by Cao Wei reinforcements.
Wood chips flew everywhere.
Several undercover agents seized the opportunity and rushed forward.
They attempted to push open the city gates completely.
The mastermind behind the scenes.
He was standing inside the city gate.
He waved the "You" token in his hand.
He shouted sternly, "Hurry up!"
"The city gates have fallen; follow me and fight your way out."
"Get reinforcements!"
He exuded an aura of sinister menace.
The sword at his waist was drawn.
A flash of cold light.
He then killed a Shu soldier guard who tried to stop him.
[The mastermind behind the scheme is ruthless]: Although Dong Jue's reinforcements have arrived.
But the city gates had already been breached.
As soon as Cao Wei's army enters the city.
Victory is assured today.
Lord Sima Yi’s instructions.
I can definitely do it!
"General! The city gates are about to fall!"
A Shu soldier shouted for help.
His voice was filled with despair.
Li Hui was caught in a dilemma.
On one side is Gao Ding, who is stubbornly resisting.
On one side is the city gate, which is about to be breached.
And below, there's a mastermind lurking in the shadows.
[Li Hui's mind raced]: We can't delay any longer!
First, secure the city gates.
Reprocessing high-end custom-made items!
He kicked backhand.
He kicked Gao Ding to the ground.
He sternly ordered his personal guards, "Tie him up."
"Keep a close watch on them."
"Don't let him cause any more trouble!"
"Yes, sir!"
Two bodyguards immediately stepped forward.
The haute couture was tightly bound with iron chains.
The haute couture was lying on the ground.
It continued to struggle frantically.
He screamed incessantly, "Let me go!"
"If reinforcements enter the city, you will all die!"
"The mastermind behind this won't let you get away with this!"
Li Hui ignored him.
Grip the longsword tightly.
He leaped off the city gate.
They charged toward the mastermind behind the operation.
"You scoundrels! How dare you disrupt the formation of my Shu army!"
"Give me your life!"
The longsword sliced through the air.
It struck directly at the heart of the mastermind behind the covert operation.
The moves were fierce.
Every move is deadly.
The mastermind behind the operation sensed a strong gust of wind behind him.
He suddenly sidestepped to avoid it.
He parried with his sword using a backhand.
A crisp "clang" sounded.
Sparks flew everywhere.
The two instantly became entangled in combat.
Swords flashed and shadows danced.
It's a close call.
[The mastermind behind the scenes sneered inwardly]: Li Hui.
You are seriously injured.
You still dare to fight me?
Let me end your life today.
This way, I can report back to Lord Sima Yi!
The sword in his hand became increasingly sharp.
Every move was aimed directly at Li Hui's wound.
They were trying to worsen his injuries.
Li Hui felt a sharp pain in his back wound.
Each time the sword is swung.
Both were related to injuries.
Blood kept spilling from the corner of his mouth.
But he still gritted his teeth and persevered.
His gaze grew increasingly resolute.
[Li Hui was determined in his heart]: I must not fall!
He quelled the rebellion in Nanzhong and defended the city of Yuexi.
Behind me are thousands of Shu soldiers.
It was entrusted by His Majesty and the Prime Minister.
Even if it costs me my life, I'll risk it all today.
We must also guard the city gates.
Slay the mastermind behind the scenes!
West side of the camp.
Meng Huo killed the last spy.
I heard there was a crisis at the city gates.
He immediately led his tribal soldiers.
They sped toward the city gate.
"Brothers, follow me to support General Li."
"Hold the city gates!"
The tribal soldiers shouted in unison.
Holding a weapon.
They followed closely behind Meng Huo.
The momentum is like a rainbow.
[Meng Huo was anxious]: General Li is seriously injured.
The city gates are about to be breached again.
We absolutely cannot afford any mistakes!
Even if we fight with all the strength of our tribe today.
We must also defeat the enemy!
East side.
Ma Zhong has also eliminated the remaining hidden agents.
I heard that the city gates are under attack.
Immediately lead a team to provide assistance.
He had a long spear in his hand.
They sped along the road.
Wherever they went.
Cao Wei soldiers and their spies fell to the ground one after another.
[Ma Zhong was determined]: to guard the city gate.
That is to defend the South!
Today I am Ma Zhong.
I'd fight to the death!
Just as the Shu soldiers were fighting desperately to defend the city gate.
Shilipo direction.
Dong Jue's reinforcements are already approaching.
Dong Jue was wearing armor.
Holding a horsewhip.
His expression was solemn.
Looking ahead at the flames of Yuexi City.
My heart was filled with anxiety.
[Dong Jue felt guilty]: I'm too late!
It's all my fault for being held back by the undercover agents.
It delayed my trip.
I hope General Li can hold on!
"Speed up!"
"Rush to the aid of Yuexi City and repel Cao Wei's reinforcements!"
Dong Jue gave the order in a loud voice.
The mount galloped forward.
But he didn't notice.
Behind them was a small group of unidentified cavalry.
They have already quietly left the group.
They circled around to the flank of the Shu army reinforcements.
The cavalry leader reined in his horse.
A sinister glint flashed in his eyes.
He raised his hand and gestured to the cavalry behind him.
[The cavalry leader sneered inwardly]: Dong Jue.
Do you think that bringing reinforcements will turn the tide of the battle?
today.
Then I will let you and your reinforcements.
We will all perish here together!
Beneath the city gate.
The struggle between Li Hui and the mastermind behind the scenes is becoming increasingly fierce.
Li Hui's injuries worsened.
The movements gradually slowed down.
The mastermind behind the operation seized the opportunity.
The sword suddenly thrust towards Li Hui's chest.
Li Hui had no way to avoid it.
You can only block by turning to the side.
The sword was jolted out of his hand.
A deep wound was slashed across his chest by the tip of a sword.
Fresh blood gushed out.
He staggered back a few steps.
He fell heavily to the ground.
He was too weak to get up.
The mastermind behind the operation slowly stepped forward.
The sword was pointed directly at Li Hui's throat.
A smug smile curled at the corner of his mouth.
"Li Hui, you've lost."
[The mastermind behind the scheme is overjoyed]: Lord Sima Yi.
The southern region will soon fall under the control of Cao Wei!
Just as he was about to swing his sword and kill Li Hui.
A thunderous sound of horses' hooves suddenly rang out.
Meng Huo arrived with his tribal soldiers.
He swung his scimitar.
He charged towards the mastermind behind the operation, shouting, "You scoundrel! Don't you dare harm General Li!"
The mastermind behind the operation sidestepped to avoid it.
A hint of apprehension flashed in his eyes—Meng Huo was exceptionally brave.
He had the upper hand at this moment.
However, it is also difficult to fight them for a long time.
[The mastermind behind the scenes is thinking]: We cannot linger in battle.
First, open the city gates.
Let the reinforcements enter the city first!
He turned to the hidden agents beside him and sternly ordered, "Quickly!"
"Open the city gates and let the reinforcements in!"
"I'll stop them!"
Several undercover agents immediately stepped forward.
They worked together to push open the city gate.
The Cao Wei reinforcements outside the city saw this.
They immediately swarmed in.
Just now.
Dong Jue's reinforcements also arrived at the city.
They saw Cao Wei reinforcements enter the city.
A hint of urgency flashed in Dong Jue's eyes.
"Soldiers, charge in!"
"Repel the enemy!"
The Shu army reinforcements swarmed in.
A fierce battle ensued at the city gate between them and Cao Wei's reinforcements.
But no one expected it.
The flank of Dong Jue's reinforcements.
The unidentified cavalry suddenly launched an attack.
He brandished his long sword.
They slashed at the Shu army reinforcements.
The Shu army reinforcements were caught off guard.
Chaos erupted instantly.
Many soldiers fell to the cavalry's blades.
Dong Jue turned around.
Seeing this scene.
His eyes were filled with shock.
[Dong Jue was startled]: Who are these people?
Why did they attack us?
Are they also part of a covert operation?
Inside the city gate.
Meng Huo is currently locked in a fierce battle with the mastermind behind the scenes.
They saw Cao Wei reinforcements enter the city.
My heart was filled with anxiety.
Their moves gradually became chaotic and disorganized.
The mastermind behind the operation seized the opportunity.
He kicked Meng Huo to the ground.
He turned and ran deeper into the camp.
[The mastermind behind the scenes is thinking]: The reinforcements have entered the city.
The outcome is already decided.
All I need to do is find the gunpowder in the camp.
That would completely eliminate the Shu army.
To prevent future troubles!
When Ma Zhong arrived.
They saw Li Hui and Meng Huo lying on the ground.
There were also Cao Wei reinforcements pouring into the city gates.
His eyes were filled with rage.
"General! Chief!"
He rushed to Li Hui's side.
Help him up.
His tone was urgent: "General, how are you?"
Li Hui leaned against Ma Zhong.
His breathing was weak.
But his eyes remained resolute: "Quickly...stop the mastermind behind the operation."
"He...he's going to detonate the gunpowder..."
Ma Zhong was shocked.
He immediately realized the seriousness of the situation.
[Ma Zhong's mind raced]: Once the gunpowder detonates...
The entire camp will be reduced to ashes.
We all have to die!
He immediately ordered his personal guards, "Quickly."
"Escort General Li and Chief Meng to retreat."
"Hold the line deep within the camp."
"We must never let the mastermind behind this operation get close to the gunpowder!"
"Yes, sir!"
Ma Zhong gripped his spear tightly.
He turned and chased after the mastermind behind the operation in the direction he had fled.
His eyes were filled with determination.
At the city gate.
The battle between the Shu army and the Cao Wei reinforcements intensified.
Blood stained the city bricks.
Dong Jue was held back by unidentified cavalry.
It's difficult to escape.
They could only watch helplessly as Cao Wei reinforcements kept entering the city.
Deep within the camp.
The mastermind behind the operation has found the location where the gunpowder was hidden.
He took out a tinderbox from his hand.
Blow on it gently to make it bright.
[The mastermind behind the scenes sneers inwardly]: Li Hui, Meng Huo, Dong Jue.
You're all just waiting to die together!
South Central.
Ultimately, the world will belong to Cao Wei!
The firelight from the tinderbox.
In the dimly lit camp.
It looked particularly glaring.
And behind him.
Ma Zhong's footsteps grew closer.
At the city gate.
Dong Jue continued to fight back fiercely.
Li Hui, who has fallen to the ground.
A resolute glint flashed in his eyes.
He slowly tightened his grip on the short blade in his hand.
They haven't given up yet.
No one noticed.
The haute couture was tied up to the side.
A strange smile crept onto his lips.
The wound on my wrist.
Black blood was seeping out silently.
In his arms.
There was also a black token that had never been shown to anyone.
It's engraved on it.
It is not the character "幽".
Instead, it was a tiny "魏" character.
