Chapter 27: Heavenly Soldiers and Generals_1
Human strength is not infinite; there comes a time when it is exhausted. After six hours of fierce battle, Wang Jian could no longer hold, swaying and almost dropping to one knee.
Beneath his feet was a mountain of bodies, higher than the walls of Hangu Pass, with an aura of bloodlust lingering around him, like a living god of slaughter.
The soldiers of the five nations, holding their weapons, stood on all sides, hesitant to attack, looking at the bloody figure with fear etched on their faces. Even these elite troops were terrified.
He was too brutal! His presence alone intimidated thousands of soldiers.
"A bunch of cowards, make way for this general!"
A rough voice echoed in the void. The soldiers of the five nations made way, revealing a path just wide enough for one person to pass. Chu Wuji, wearing chainmail, strode forward.
Standing on the mountain of corpses, Wang Jian glanced at him and ignored him.
"Wang Jian, your time is up!" Chu Wuji declared arrogantly, pride etched on his face. He had actually arrived on the battlefield when the soldiers of the five nations began their offensive. However, he hadn’t made a move, waiting instead for them to exhaust Wang Jian’s strength.
He also knew that he couldn’t defeat Wang Jian.
But what did it matter? He had a vast number of soldiers at his disposal. As long as Wang Jian was worn out, he would ultimately be victorious.
