Chapter 2664 - 26: What You Owe Me, You Must Return to Me (Part 2)

In the rapid gallop, there was no noise or disorder, hundreds of riders moved as one, with a force like a tornado.

The famous Cangtu Divine Cavalry, the premier mounted army of this age, naturally had the qualification to charge at the forefront.

But after rushing out of the city gate, the leading cavalry general suddenly reined in his wolf mount and looked back, staring at the banner on Fang Yuanyou’s back, pondering: "Are you my third brother’s men?"

Fang Yuanyou gazed at this indescribably handsome man, not understanding the reason.

Bai Yuxia, however, had been to the Guanhe Platform, witnessed this man meeting Jiang Wang, and knew that this man named Zhao Rucheng had a brotherly relationship with Jiang Wang.

Thus he spoke: "I am Bai Yuxia, the chief retainer of the Wu’an Marquis Mansion. This troop is the trusted aide of the Marquis. We arrived at The Gate of All Demons intending to fight alongside the Marquis on the battlefield. Since the Marquis encountered an unexpected event, we are waiting here now."

Zhao Rucheng, however, did not have much impression of Bai Yuxia, but respectfully nodded and turned his wolf mount: "When the battle starts later, follow me."

At this moment, facing an imminent life-and-death battle, these words undoubtedly carried more weight than anything else.

Bai Yuxia saluted, saying: "Wherever the sword edge of the general points, we will not retreat!"

The giant grey wolf leapt forward, Zhao Rucheng was already riding alongside Helian Yuyun and Helian Xiaohu at the forefront of the wolf riders.

"How about it, are you nervous about fighting the Demon clan for the first time?" Helian Xiaohu’s tone was not calm, although he was expressing concern for two juniors, he couldn’t erase his excitement.

This excitement, for him, hadn’t been felt in a long time.

Being of the Da Mu Royal Family, a True Man of the Age, and one of the commanders of the Royal Tent Cavalry, what else in this world could move him?

His task this time in the Monster Realm was only to ensure the safety of Helian Yuyun and Zhao Rucheng, he wasn’t concerned with the demon war situation or the newly opened race battlefield.

But honestly speaking, this sudden race war initiated by Duke Chu Huai and Great Qi’s God of War, participating in such a war, it was hard for him not to be excited.

Two Great Grandmasters join forces to fight demons!

What else but participating in such a war could better feel the charm of being a Soldier Home?

Helian Yuyun, being the daughter of Helian Shanhai, with Cangqing blood flowing in her veins, naturally wouldn’t be nervous in such a scene. But she turned to ask: "Rucheng, are you nervous?"

"Nervous." This valiant general, who slaughtered countless enemies and gained the name of Green Ghost in the Jing Shepherd battlefield, murmured at this moment: "So nervous I could die."

"Jiang Wang is a man who challenges fate itself, you needn’t worry too much." With many people present, Helian Yuyun was inconvenient to be affectionate, so she just flicked Zhao Rucheng’s wolf with her whip: "When the time is right, I’ll open Heaven’s Eyes to help you find him."

"Don’t open Heaven’s Eyes, that’s too conspicuous." Zhao Rucheng immediately refused: "If my third brother is still alive and the demon clan detects us searching, it would be very dangerous for him."

"You’re right." Helian Yuyun said: "I care too much and confused things."

Zhao Rucheng said: "Princess, don’t delay important matters. Your training and safety are the most important things on this trip to the Monster Realm. Searching is my responsibility."

"I won’t delay!" Helian Yuyun shouted earnestly: "You are my important matter!"

The entire wolf cavalry fell silent, with iron spears lowered and divine wolves burying their heads to run forward.

Helian Xiaohu pretended not to hear, staring seriously into the distant sky—

There, red and blue shadows, fists, and halberds seemed already entangled, continuously rolling, painting a colorful picture on the high vault of heaven.

This strike by Zuo Xiao and Jiang Mengxiong carried the momentum to kill the Heavenly Demons!

In such a short time, that patch of sky had shattered several times over!

The Heavenly Demon Yuan Xianting could still barely hold on, but Zhu Yi was visibly weakened.

Will a Heavenly Demon perish today?

...

In the rear of the wolf riding team, amid the galloping cavalry.

Fang Yuanyou gritted his teeth and gripped his longsword tightly.

Zhao Rucheng, riding alongside the Da Mu Princess and True Man, was the most outstanding face he had ever seen. And this stance among hundreds of riders issuing commands with ease also demonstrated status and position.

Absolutely a great figure!

And Wu’an Marquis turned out to be the third brother of this prominent figure from Mugu!

He had never heard that his Marquis had such a brother, and connecting it with the recent observations, a sense of pride welled up... who in the world doesn’t know the master?!

But he also felt a little troubled, and couldn’t help but ask Bai Yuxia: "Sir, previously True Man Ye said once the war begins we can follow him. Now Mugu’s Cangtu Divine Cavalry also wants us to follow. Who do we follow?"

Bai Yuxia had considered this already: "Bypass others’ fondness for the Marquis, we cannot refuse it on behalf of the Marquis. I’ll lead one team to follow General Zhao Rucheng, you lead one team to follow True Man Ye."

Fang Yuanyou clicked his tongue: "Too many backers, luckily we have many people, otherwise it wouldn’t suffice."

Bai Yuxia ignored his sentiment, only ordered: "Remember, no matter what True Man Ye assigns, complete it without discount. Then protect Ye Qingyu like you protect the Marquis."

"Understood!" Fang Yuanyou lightly tugged the reins, leading a hundred men away, splitting the forces into two.

Bai Yuxia led his team closely behind the Cangtu Divine Cavalry.

The direction Fang Yuanyou headed—

An entire team of four-winged Mo Samurai flew in the air, leading the way. Four bull-horned horizontal sword puppets, four eagle-eyed heavy arrow puppets, and four thin-armored double sword puppets surrounded like stars around the moon, guarding a cloud chariot of radiant colors.
