Tyrannosaurus Rex immediately wilted at Little Black's request: "I say, big brother, you know that if we forcibly terminate the contract, my strength will drop significantly, unless I become a Divine Knight."
"This is easy; I can help you terminate the contract."
"If that's the case, that would be great! Help me terminate the contract now, and I can go find my beauty." Due to the distance, those outside couldn't hear what the two beasts were saying; they could only see Tyrannosaurus Rex suddenly stand up and bounce around Little Black.
"Alright, quiet down for a moment. Summon your contract; I'll help you with the termination."
Without hesitation, Tyrannosaurus Rex summoned the contract from within. At that moment, a Hexagram Array appeared above Tyrannosaurus Rex's head. Little Black placed its front paw on Tyrannosaurus Rex's body: "Let's begin the termination."
"I, Tyrannosaurus Rex Gigil, hereby terminate the Equal Contract with Qin Hongguan, and from now on we shall have nothing to do with each other." With a loud roar, Tyrannosaurus Rex expelled a white energy ball from its mouth, which crackled with jumping lightning. As the energy ball concentrated on the contract's Hexagram Array, the array symbolizing the contract shattered and vanished into thin air.
Afterward, both Little Black and Tyrannosaurus Rex lay flat on the ground, panting heavily. Terminating a contract was definitely not an easy task. If Tyrannosaurus Rex had terminated it on its own, it would have dropped to the level of an Eighth Rank beast. However, with Little Black's assistance, although it felt incredibly fatigued, it managed to retain its cultivation level.
After resting on the ground for about three minutes, Tyrannosaurus Rex struggled to stand up. Its first question was not about relief but rather inquiring eagerly: "Big brother, when can you take me to see the beauty?"
At this point, Little Black had already recovered. It turned to look at Tyrannosaurus Rex Gigil: "Wait a moment; I need to inform my friend about Dai Yi." With that, Little Black approached Liu Guanfeng.
"Xiaofeng, I'm taking that Little Guy to Earth Dragon Island. I expect to be back by tomorrow."
Liu Guanfeng nodded: "Be careful on the way."
"Alright, I'll leave things here to you."
"Don't worry, boss; with me around the master, nothing will go wrong."
After giving instructions to Liu Guanfeng, Little Black returned to face Tyrannosaurus Rex: "How can I take you with your size? Hurry up and shrink down."
"Okay! Hehe~! Finally going to see a beauty; maybe I should take a bath too."
Little Black fixed its gaze and said, "Stop talking so much and move quickly. After you shrink, get on my back."
"Yes, yes!" Tyrannosaurus Rex quickly shrank to the size of a small dog. If it weren't for the fierce demeanor it had just displayed, one would never guess that this little Little Guy was a ferocious beast. Once Tyrannosaurus Rex had shrunk, it immediately jumped onto Little Black's back, and Little Black took off into the sky.
Tyrannosaurus Rex had not expected Little Black could fly, so while sitting on its back, it shouted excitedly, "Wow, we're flying! This is my first time flying; it feels amazing. Big Brother, you should take me as your Younger Brother from now on!"
"Shut up! If you keep yelling, I'll throw you off."
"……" Tyrannosaurus Rex finally closed its mouth, and Little Black disappeared into the sky.
Liu Guanfeng clapped his hands and said, "Alright, everything is settled. Now it's our turn." Liu Guanfeng stepped into the backyard. As soon as he arrived at the backyard, Shangguan Junhong pointed to a small island across the artificial lake and asked, "Big Brother, are you saying that the Underground Palace of Qin Hongguan is beneath that small island?"
"That's right."
"Then can't we just have the soldiers swim over and dig up the island?"
"It's not that easy. Don't be fooled by the artificial lake being only twenty meters wide; there are a lot of Piranha Beasts in the water, so crossing is impossible."
Beside them, Shangguan Jinglei sneered coldly, "I didn't realize that Qin Hongguan was such a cunning person."
"Of course. Otherwise, the empire wouldn't have been deceived by him for so long," Liu Guanfeng shook his head.
"Fortunately, we have Big Brother's help; otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable."
"Enough with the flattery."
Shangguan Junhong looked at Liu Guanfeng in confusion and said, "Big Brother, I’m not flattering you! Do you like tall hats? I can order one for you later."
"It’s nothing. What I mean is we should go eliminate the last remaining enemy forces. You all need to remember that the soldiers here are much stronger than those at the outpost. This should be Qin Hongguan's trump card army; everyone be careful."
After finishing his words, Liu Guanfeng opened the Underground Passage at the pavilion location using the same method as before and said to xp beside him, "xp, go down and check it out first."
Following closely behind White Shadow, XP quickly darted inside. Not long after, XP's voice came through: "Master, come down. It's very quiet down here, and there are no ambushes."
Liu Guanfeng nodded to everyone and was the first to descend. Soon, everyone followed him in. According to Liu Guanfeng's memory, they needed to turn another corner to reach the entrance of the Underground Palace, where there should be a few guards. Liu Guanfeng halted the troops and called over eight Crossbowmen captains: "You eight listen carefully. After we turn the corner ahead, we will reach our destination. There should be a few guards up front. You need to rush in and eliminate them before they can react."
The eight men remained silent but nodded in agreement. Since they were in a cave, any loud noise would carry far and could easily alert others, so they understood the need for silence, reflecting Liu Guanfeng's strict training methods.
The eight Squad Leaders moved to the front of the group. The lead soldier took a quick glance and then stepped back. The remaining seven looked around one by one, and after a brief huddle, they slowly readied their Crossbows. One of them counted out loud, "One, two, three," and then all eight jumped out simultaneously. Four knelt in front while the other four stood behind them, followed by the sound of Crossbow springs being released.
The entire process was seamless, as if they had trained for a long time. Song Hero patted Liu Guanfeng on the shoulder and gave him a thumbs-up.
Liu Guanfeng smiled slightly and waved his hand as he led the troops around the corner. When Shangguan Junhong saw the entrance to the Underground Palace, he was taken aback; it truly resembled a "golden" palace. Most of what he saw was golden in color, and even having grown up in a royal palace, it was his first time witnessing such grandeur.
Then Shangguan Junhong gritted his teeth and said, "I really don't know where Qin Hongguan got so much money."
"No need to think about it; it certainly wasn't obtained through good means. Let's move on. After we go up the stairs, there will be a Training Ground where his soldiers are stationed. A tough battle may await us."
After saying this, he continued leading the soldiers forward. Unfortunately for Liu Guanfeng and his group, just as they reached halfway up, eight soldiers came down from above, laughing as they approached—likely coming to change shifts. These eight men had no idea that anyone would be here in such a concealed location, so when they saw the opposing troops, they were stunned at first. The eight Squad Leaders beside Liu Guanfeng remained highly alert; upon seeing the descending soldiers, they quickly pulled their triggers, sending dozens of crossbow bolts flying towards them.
However, it was still too late. The foremost soldier quickly realized what was happening and turned to run back up while shouting loudly, "Enemy attack..." He was immediately struck by three arrows and fell to the ground. His voice carried far away, followed by the sound of a Gathering Drum echoing from above.
"Shield Soldiers forward for cover! All Crossbowmen, fire in formation! Charge!" Liu Guanfeng immediately issued commands.
At this moment, numerous soldiers appeared at the top of the stairs, each armed with a bow aimed at Liu Guanfeng's group. However, the soldiers brought by Liu Guanfeng, both in quality and equipment, far surpassed those of their opponents. Although Qin Hongguan had been meticulously training this elite army, exceptional weapons and gear were not something that could simply be bought with money.
The front line of Shield Soldiers was fully equipped by Liu Guanfeng. Their shields continuously blocked arrows raining down from above; some arrows missed their shields entirely and struck their armor instead but only left inconspicuous white marks on it. Nevertheless, with archers above them, their advance slowed significantly due to the pressure from incoming arrows.
Fortunately for them, there were still Crossbowmen assisting from behind. After exchanging fire for two rounds, everyone had advanced more than halfway up; less than a hundred steps remained to reach the top. At this point, Liu Guanfeng shouted loudly: "Fire in formation with the Crossbowmen, then switch to melee weapons! We charge to the top as quickly as possible!"
Following his command, all the Crossbowmen swiftly fired off their remaining bolts in an organized manner. Under such overwhelming firepower from numerous crossbows, all the Shield Soldiers charged forward rapidly; once their bolts were spent, they switched to swords and rushed ahead as well. As soon as the last squad finished firing their bolts, Liu Guanfeng, wielding his Twin Iron Halberds, surged forward.
When Liu Guanfeng reached the stairs, both sides had already engaged in combat. The enemy outnumbered them significantly; thus most of his soldiers found themselves facing multiple opponents at once—some even surrounded by seven or eight enemies at once.
Fortunately, the armor prepared by Liu Guanfeng for them was sturdy enough that even seven or eight people would find it difficult to injure a single soldier, especially since each soldier was equipped with three Sleeve Arrows, which alleviated much of their pressure.
While everyone was engaged in fierce combat, one person caught Liu Guanfeng's attention. This individual was remarkably tall; Liu Guanfeng estimated him to be over two meters one in height and possessed a muscular build. His arms were thicker than the thighs of an average soldier, and the Little Guy wielded an oversized iron rod that was as thick as a bowl. Moreover, the giant wore no armor for protection, with only a piece of animal hide covering his lower body. From a distance, he resembled a figure very close to Sun Wukong.
What was even more perplexing was that this person had heavy iron shackles on his hands and feet. Despite this, his lethality was terrifying; each swing of his rod could take down several soldiers, some of whom were even his own comrades. Behind this individual stood a man who appeared to be a commander. He held a thin whip in his hand, and Liu Guanfeng noticed that there were metal hooks attached to it.
Whenever the giant slowed down even slightly, the whip would strike him, tearing away strips of flesh with each lash.
At this moment, Liu Guanfeng called over Gao Wei: "General Gao, I have a task for you. Can you complete it?"
"Lord Liu, please speak. I will do my utmost," Gao Wei replied.
"Do you see the giant over there?"
Gao Wei nodded. "Do you think you can entangle him?"
Gao Wei frowned. "That Little Guy is too strong; I'm afraid I won't be able to hold him back," he expressed his concerns.
"I didn't say to stop him; I just want you to entangle him. Although he is strong, your agility is far superior to his. As long as your weapon doesn't clash with his, it should be fine."
"Then I'll give it my best shot. That Little Guy is just too big; he makes me feel somewhat intimidated."
