Chapter 390: Counterattack!
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
"Yu, yu, yu…"
The general quickly pulled the reins to restrain his horse . He dared not charge at Xu Que!
His face was full of horror .
A skill art that can fuse three types of fire . How horrifying will it be? he thought . What's the difference between suicide and charging at this young man?
"Disperse! Quick, all of you, scatter!"
Immediately, the general shouted his command to his troops . He turned around and galloped away as far as he could .
Woah!
The Ice Troops dispersed in no time . Their original battle formation instantly disintegrated .
The troops rode away as fast as they could in all directions . Some of them were even controlling ice horses which flew them right up into the sky, wanting to get away from Xu Que quickly .
After all, Xu Que's skill art, Buddha's Fiery Lotus, had created some massive explosions that covered a large area . If the troops stayed together, the amount of casualties would be great .
However, the moment they dispersed in all directions, the eyes of Situ Hai Tang and the white-robed old man at Snow City lit up in delight .
"Here's our chance!"
"While they're in chaos, it's now a great opportunity for us to launch a counterattack!"
Situ Hai Tang raised the commander's seal high . "All Snow City troops, listen to my orders! Get in your positions and follow me . We will kill our way out of the city!"
"Yes!" The originally exhausted defending forces roared in unison . They felt energised by the new command .
At that moment, their morale had been rekindled . Their blood writhed .
Meanwhile, Xu Que had finished moulding the tri-color fiery lotus . With the help of the killer book to amplify its power, he threw the fiery lotus at the rebel forces .
Boooommmmm!
The impact of the tri-color fiery lotus was even more earth-shattering than that of the earlier two-color lotus .
The flames covered almost half the battlefield . Fire swept through the area in an instant . A huge circle of fiery waves formed, sending layers of snow into the air .
The entire battlefield seemed like it was suddenly receiving a bout of heavy snow all of a sudden . Many ice-armored soldiers could not escape in time and were instantly burnt to ashes, scattered with the wind .
Buttface had crept away from the rebel forces but instead of running away from the lotus, he had unluckily run inside the explosive area . He was blasted onto the ground with his head dunked in a big pile of snow, screaming miserably .
A wisp of flame resting on the fur of his butt started to burn .
"Owwwww… . " Buttface gave a tragic cry of desperation with his head still stuck inside the pile of snow .
However, the rebel forces were more scattered this time, at least compared to their formation during the previous attack . With the active restrictive enchantment in force, the power of the fiery lotus had been heavily suppressed .
No matter how great the power of the tri-color fiery lotus was, it was only effective when it exploded . Nevertheless, it had managed to take out over a thousand rebel soldiers!
The flames were quickly extinguished by the snow and did not continue to spread .
Such results however had scared the wits out of the remaining several thousand rebel forces .
They had been on the battlefield for many years but had never come across anything like that . A single stroke could wipe out thousands of men… how could they continue to fight a battle like this?
Members of the rebel forces continued to escape from the battlefield wildly, some leaving as fast as they could . Some of them dropped their armor, some had faces ashen with fear, and all were in a dishevelled state .
Before Xu Que's arrival, they had been a nigh victorious army of tens of thousands of soldiers . They had been known as 'The Invincible Ice Troops' . But upon Xu Que's appearance, they had suffered around 3,000 casualties in such a short period of time .
They felt that there was no need for them to continue fighting anymore .
"Why did this happen…?"
"Who exactly is this man? Since when did such a skill art exist in this world?"
"We're finished . We'll all die here today!"
"That guy is definitely not an Original Infant cultivator . With such power, only the Ice Queen could take him on…"
