Chen Moxuan suddenly realized the situation. He generally kept his distance from those with exceptional arithmetic skills. These individuals were often short-lived, and while there was no immediate danger in being around them, strange occurrences always seemed to follow.
As he pondered this, he noticed a cloud of dust rising from the distant forest. It seemed that the young man had returned. "How pathetic," Tiger Brother muttered, "he can't even handle such a small number of enemies. Just leave them to me; I can swallow them all in one bite and solve the problem."
As he spoke, Tiger Brother's mouth watered at the thought of meat. Chen Moxuan shot him a glance and kicked a mouse scurrying across the ground. The mouse flew through the air in a half-circle, landing perfectly in Tiger Brother's mouth.
"Ugh! You let me eat this kind of garbage!" Tiger Brother exclaimed, spitting it out.
Chen Moxuan tilted his head back defiantly. "What? Are you going to eat me? Come on!"
Hu Xiong shot Chen Moxuan a glare, knowing full well that he couldn't possibly eat this guy. Although Chen Moxuan wasn't particularly strong, his defense was exceptional. The Blood Emperor's Blood Pool couldn't drown him, and the Heavenly Emperor's divine sword couldn't cut through him. The Nine Heavens Thunder Punishment felt like a refreshing shower, while blades and axes merely massaged him.
Tiger Brother understood this peculiar aspect of Chen Moxuan all too well. Perhaps it was just a natural gift. With that thought, Tiger Brother lay back down, reluctantly maintaining his tough demeanor. "I didn't have an appetite today, but just wait until I do; I'll chew you to bits!"
At that moment, Chen Feng was panting heavily. His subordinates were either injured or too exhausted to move their legs. After sitting down for the first time in a while, Chen Feng couldn't help but grumble internally. Although they had delayed the Chita Legion's advance, it shouldn't have come to them attacking despite being trapped.
Chen Feng clearly remembered how those from the Chita Legion had charged at them recklessly, disregarding their own casualties in their desire to kill. Hao Ying Yang Wei had been training hard lately and had significantly improved his strength. With the Spirit Horse enhancing their mobility and arrows available for kite tactics, they would have truly been engulfed by the enemy's vast forces otherwise.
Arriving at the designated meeting spot, Chen Feng shook his head as he searched for Ancestor's figure. Initially, when Ancestor had told him to face the Chita Legion alone, he had felt quite anxious.
However, after the battle, thoughts changed immediately.
Everyone has two shoulders and one head; who is afraid of whom?
It was precisely for this reason that Chen Feng was immensely grateful to his Ancestor. Without the Ancestor's help, he might have already died in the first assault against the Vanguard Army at Chita.
As Chen Feng was searching, a figure suddenly flashed through the air, and then the Ancestor appeared before him.
"Ancestor!" Chen Feng exclaimed in surprise.
"Well done; you actually blocked their attack. It seems my potion wasn't wasted after all," Chen Moxuan said lightly.
Chen Feng chuckled, "Thanks to you, Ancestor! Otherwise, I would have been dead for sure. By the way, what’s this about the divine artifact you mentioned?"
Chen Moxuan pointed toward a distant pool. "In a few days, a divine artifact will appear there. Originally, I thought of bringing it to you, but after considering it, I decided against it."
Chen Feng became anxious upon hearing this. "Ancestor, that's a divine artifact! Even if I'm not suited for it, it could be used by other talented members of our family!"
Chen Moxuan shook his head. "That weapon belongs to a well-known demon's disciple. Such weapons are not something just anyone can wield!"
Although Chen Feng did not understand the details, he trusted his Ancestor. After listening to him, he quickly said, "Should we destroy it then? We can't let it harm anyone!"
Suddenly, Chen Moxuan smiled. "Actually, Ancestor, I've written a separate script for you; I just don't know if you want to act in it!"
Chen Feng stood there dumbfounded. "Act?"
Chen Moxuan glanced at his dazed descendant and pondered for a moment before saying, "Forget it; you wouldn't understand. Here’s the plan: in two days, you will lead your troops back to the city under the pretext of passing by that pool."
"Then as Captain, directly order Ma Xingyu and Wei Jing to return. If they refuse, threaten them with treason!"
"Force them to act?" Chen Feng was confused again. Shouldn't it be a threat?
Chen Moxuan tapped Chen Feng on the head. "You silly child! When we went out to face the enemy, those two guys took away the troops. Do you think they would return just because of one of your commands? For the divine artifact, they will definitely resort to any means necessary!"
"At that time, first pin the blame on them and force them into action; then we can eliminate them."
After thinking for a moment, Chen Moxuan's eyes suddenly lit up. "No, wait until that divine artifact appears. If it turns out as I suspect..."
"Let one person live to take the artifact back to the capital!"
Sending out the divine artifact for free? Chen Feng couldn't accept that.
Just as the two were discussing this matter, a rumble of hooves suddenly echoed from afar.
A large group of cavalry, protected by a massive shield of spiritual energy, suddenly appeared before everyone’s eyes.
Chen Feng was taken aback, exclaiming, "Impossible! How could their cavalry arrive so quickly?"
Chen Moxuan narrowed his eyes slightly and replied, "What else could it be? Of course, it’s the Chita Legion, or rather, the Azure Wolf Kingdom must have received news about the artifact. That’s why they’re in such a hurry."
"It’s fine," he continued. "This is just a cavalry unit that doesn’t even have Junqi to support them; they won’t engage us directly."
"We’ll stick to the plan."
As Chen Moxuan had anticipated, the cavalry halted near Silver Moon Mountain and began to survey the surroundings discreetly, without making a fuss.
At that moment, the Azure Wolf King's envoy gazed at the distant lake and nodded in satisfaction. "General Batu, you’ve done exceptionally well this time."
However, Batu's heart was heavy with grief. To overcome those obstacles and catch up with the Eagle Wing Guard, he had lost countless brave warriors!
Such casualties could have been avoided; he could have employed different tactics to achieve his goals more effectively. Under the envoy's urging, he had no choice but to keep sending his subordinates charging into the rain of arrows.
The final result was devastating losses.
"Thank you for your praise," General Batu said flatly, barely masking his emotions.
The envoy glanced at Batu and understood his thoughts immediately. "General Batu, there’s no need to be so sorrowful. Once this mission is over, you will undoubtedly become our great general in the Azure Wolf Kingdom. At that time, you will be second only to one and above all others! What is there to hold back? Hahaha!"
