A Step Into The Past: I Am Han Xin - C145
Unparalleled Beauty hated Ying Bu killing her master. The Liu Ye Sword pierced through Ying Bu’s Fish Scale Armor and pierced his chest by one inch. If not for the miraculous void Genuine Qi inside Ying Bu’s body being able to resist in time, it seemed to be able to stab a hole in Ying Bu’s body.
Ying Bu snorted, beads of perspiration the size of beans rolling down his forehead. He extended his hand and grabbed Yu Zhiya’s wrist. Yu Zhiya’s delicate hand that was like bamboo shoots loosened involuntarily, and that sword could no longer move forward by even a little.
The two sides on the battlefield were extremely shocked when they saw this. That Ying Bu was so powerful, and his master was even injured in his hands, how could he have succeeded in stabbing that little fiend with his sword?
When they saw Yu Zhiya’s goddess-like appearance, the crowd thought at the same time, “Could it be that Ying Bu had forgotten to resist when she was beauties?
Hearing Ying Bu call his master “Elder Sister Yu” so clearly, Yu Zhiya didn’t doubt that the person who killed his own master was the unremarkable son of Xiang Shaolong, who owed a great debt to his own master.
Her heart was filled with regret, but she was immediately replaced by hatred. “Even though this person is the son of Hero Xiang, he managed to injure Master, causing him to form a deep grudge with our Mo Family.”
Yu Zhiya’s smooth wrist was held tightly by Ying Bu, and felt that it was difficult to twitch due to the control of his body, and it twisted in pain.
Ying Bu became ruthless, he summoned the mysterious Genuine Qi and rushed towards Yu Zhiya’s wrist, to take her revenge with just one sword strike. Suddenly, he sighed and said: “Elder Sister Yu, you are Big Brother Baoer’s beloved girl. I won’t kill you, you can go.”
When Ying Bu loosened his hand, Yu Zhiya immediately took it off. Hugging his master Mo Zhuang, with a face as cold as ice, he returned back into the array without turning back.
Just as he took a step forward, he heard a loud ‘bang’ from behind him. Ying Bu could no longer hold on and fell heavily onto the ground.
The warriors from both sides rushed forward and snatched Ying Bu and Mo Zhuang back.
As a result, the two armies lost their interest and called for reinforcements.
Soon after, the two armies clashed, and rumors spread like wildfire. , who had beaten up countless generals to no end, was originally a lecherous man. However, when he saw the unparalleled beauty of the Ju Zi’s female disciples, he immediately lost all of his sense of resistance and was cut and injured by the female disciples.
This rumor then spread throughout the Central Plains. Needless to say, Ying Bu’s reputation had been tarnished, and that female disciple’s pretty name had also spread throughout the world. All the dukes and all the heroes of the realm were curious, wanting to see how beautiful the Ju Zi’s female disciples were, as they were captivated by the evil star Ying Bu.
As night fell, in the Mo family disciples’ tent, more than ten white candles let out dim candlelight. Under the gusts of cold wind that permeated through the tent, they trembled, causing one’s heart to become heavy.
The light of the white candle could only illuminate Big Son Mo Zhuang during the last moment of his life, and could not extend his life any further. Mo Zhuang was heavily injured, he did not dare to pull the sword out, as he was already at his death’s door.
Shangzhu State, Zhang Chu, and more than ten direct disciples all came to the tent to send him off. Yu Zhiya and the other disciples of the Mo family knelt in front of the bed, their faces filled with tears.
Mo Zhuang suddenly perked up and stood up. Everyone knew that he was dying, so they all heard his last words.
Mo Zhuang’s expression turned serious, he waved his hand and said: “Zhiya, come over.” Yu Zhiya knelt in front of Mo Zhuang and listened to his instructions.
Mo Zhuang took out a piece of bronze from his bosom. On it was only the word “Mo”, shaped like a generous seal, which he handed over to Yu Zhiya. With a solemn expression, he shouted, “Receive this order!”
“This Ju Zi Token belongs to all the previous generations of Sect Leader. When Mo Zhuang passed down the order to Yu Zhiya, he clearly passed the position of Ju Zi to this disciple. That Yu Zhiya is still young, and is only the last little disciple Mo Zhuang accepted as her disciple. There are many disciples in the clan who are more prestigious than her, and she is also a woman.
Yu Zhiya did not dare accept the order and hesitated. “Master, with all the Senior Brothers and Sisters here, Zhiyadai is inferior to all the Senior Brothers and Sisters, and does not dare to assume the position of Ju Zi.”
Mo Zhuang let out a violent cough, and then asked in a stern voice: “Various Apprentice, Master wants to pass on the position of Ju Zi to my disciple Yu Zhiya today, who has any objections?” All the disciples lowered their heads and said, “We are willing to follow master’s orders and assist our junior sister, and expand our Mo family.”
Mo Zhuang nodded with satisfaction, and shouted loudly: “Zhiya, if you don’t receive my orders now, when will you?” Yu Zhiya did not dare hesitate and accepted the Ju Zi Command Plate respectfully.
Mo Zhuang said seriously: “From today onwards, you are my Mo family’s seventh generation Ju Zi. The survival of my Mo family depends entirely on you. ”
Yu Zhiya didn’t think that she would suddenly place such a heavy burden on herself. Whether or not the sect could exist in this world, was all because of him. She let out a long breath and said with a stern voice, “Zhiya will not disappoint Master, and restore the former prosperity of the Mo family.”
Mo Zhuang smiled with gratitude, waved his hand and said: “Zhiya will stay, everyone else can leave.”
Everyone knew that he had orders from Yu Zhiya and left the tent.
Mo Zhuang’s eyes stared at Yu Zhiya, and asked: “Zhiya, do you know why Master wanted to pass on the position of Ju Zi to you, and not to your fellow Senior Brothers and Sisters?” Yu Zhiya was also curious, as she replied in a daze: “Disciple doesn’t know.”
Mo Zhuang said, “The reason why you and I are the inheritors of the sect is not because of your ability to surpass others of the same sect; it’s because of your innate talent.” Yu Zhiya was puzzled: “What talent does disciple have? How could I not know? ”
Mo Zhuang let out a long laugh, “Your beauty, is precisely this innate talent, enough to confuse any king of the world and change their surname. Then why didn’t Ying Bu kill you? Isn’t it because of your beauty? ”
Hearing that, Yu Zhiya’s face turned red, she wanted to try and figure it out, but she did not know where to start.
Mo Zhuang asked: “You said that your future husband, if he is an indomitable hero who is able to extend the great benefits of the world, other than eradicating the violent Qin, he would also be able to return peace to the world. Are you speaking the truth? ” Yu Zhiya nodded, “This is Zhiya’s lifelong wish.”
Mo Zhuang nodded: “Alright! As expected of my disciple, I have chosen the right one. Zhiya, my Mo family is in a decline right now. It will be hard for us to regain our former glory by relying on our own strength. Are you willing to sacrifice your pretense to overthrow this tyranny and spread your power for the benefit of the entire world and to expand our sect? ”
After Yu Zhiya heard this, she sucked in a breath of cold air.
She was originally from the Mo family, and her father had never learned martial arts. He was the one who was involved in the interrogation of the Mo family. Yu Zhiya had learned to be polite since she was young.
Hearing his master’s words today, he seemed to want to use his appearance to lure the various dukes in order to overthrow Qin Zheng, to spread the benefits of the world, and to greatly enlarge the Mo family. For a girl who had even the slightest bit of shame, it was hard to imagine, much less the self-proclaimed high and mighty Yu Zhiya, the icy beauty.
Moreover, her heart, had unexpectedly barged into the shadow of a person, and that person was the young hero Han Xin. When Yu Zhiya saw Han Xin again at the Longwupo, he was captivated by the brilliant actions of his leaders. Waiting for Han Xin to help Wu Guang take down the Xingyang without bloodshed, she became even more overbearing, and her heart secretly allowed him to do so. When the Chencheng and Han Xin were strolling outside the city hand in hand, looking at the sky and admiring the moon, there was only one person in their heart — Han Xin.
Her original thought was that Han Xin would become an unrivaled hero and realize his dream. However, ever since Han Xin revealed his extraordinary talent in the Xingyang, he seemed to have disappeared, and never did anything else. There were beacons of war everywhere in the Central Plains. The battles were going on like wildfire. It was unknown how many heroes had appeared here.
Hence, he was a little disappointed in Han Xin.
And today, when her master was about to die, he actually brought up such a difficult request, making it impossible for her to suddenly accept it.
Yu Zhiya’s mind was filled with countless thoughts, and she didn’t speak for a long time.
Mo Zhuang stared at Yu Zhiya and sighed, then said: “To you, this request is too excessive, if you are not willing, then let the Mo family be destroyed from now on.”
Hearing that, Yu Zhiya’s heart was as sharp as a needle. Her master’s understatement was obviously meant to scold him.
As for the survival of the sect and the peace of the world, what could they not give up? What did his body count for? Moreover, who knows about the future, and how can Young Master Han not fulfill his own wish?
Yu Zhiya bit her lip, and said resolutely: “Master, I promise you.”
After Mo Zhuang heard this, he felt like a stone had dropped from his heart.
Yu Zhiya’s heart was in sorrow, she kneeled down in front of her master’s corpse, tears flowing like spring water.
The Mo Family’s sixth generation Big Son Mo Zhuang was heavily injured and died in Xu Cheng’s hands. When the disciples heard the news, they were greatly saddened and hastily burned to ashes the corpse. Before his master’s soul, Unparalleled Beauty Yu Zhiya accepted the worship of all the disciples and assumed the position of Ju Zi.
Before the grief was over, the main force of the Qin Army had already arrived at the bottom of the city, so the Mo Family disciples hurriedly entered into the battle to defend Xu City.
As for the Marquis of Pingyang, Zhang Han, who was leading the main force of the Qin Army to Xu Cheng’s side, after hearing Ying Bu’s injury, said in surprise, “The peerless hero of the General Ying would also be bewitched by beauty?” With a sigh, he sent Ying Bu to the back to heal his injuries.
He personally led an army to attack Xu Cheng, but was met with a desperate resistance.
All of Zhang Chu’s soldiers knew that this was the final battle for survival. If Xu Cheng lost, his Chencheng would no longer be safe, and they all threw caution to the wind, vowing to defend the city with their lives.
And the disciples of the Mo family were good at making weapons. Yu Zhiya gave the order and spent the entire night making a large amount of defensive equipment, making Xu Cheng look like an iron bucket.
Zhang Han launched nine attacks on the city within three days, day and night. Countless corpses were left below the city, the yellow dirt was dyed red with the dark red blood, but they were unable to do anything for an inch. Xu Cheng was still firmly in the hands of Zhang Chu Army and the Mo Family disciples.
After many bitter battles, Xu Cheng had also suffered heavy losses. There were only eight stops for the Mo family disciples.
said: “Even if this old man dies, I will still protect this last barrier of Chencheng.” Despite his age, he had personally supervised the battle at the top of the city wall and hadn’t closed his eyes for several nights.
On the fourth day, the Qin Army suddenly stopped its assault and everything beneath the city became quiet.
Cai Chang was surprised, he sent the Scout to investigate, and the news that came back gave him a huge shock. It turned out that in the three days that he risked his life to protect Xu Cheng, Marquis of Wucheng Wang Li had already led light troops and followed the mountain ridge trail to pass through Xu Cheng, taking the Chencheng.
What the heck! All of Chencheng’s troops were taken away by this old man, so how could’s group possibly defend against Chencheng?
Cai Chang made his decision in a hurry, abandoning Xu Cheng and returning to the capital to rescue them.
He summoned all of Xu Cheng’s army and retreated from the east gate. He gave up on the supplies and rushed towards Chencheng along the way. As he arrived at the top of the mountain, he encountered Wang Li’s ambush.
Originally, when Wang Li had passed Xu Cheng, he had only sent a small group of soldiers to attack the Chencheng, but he had left the main force half-way there, waiting for Cai Chang to swallow the big cake. The reason was: If our army were to move towards the Chencheng, if we were unable to fall into the city, the Xu soldiers would definitely come back to our aid.
That Cai Chang, a scholar, how could he be a match for Wang Li, the family of generals? He only wanted to grow wings on his ribs, to return to the King of Chen who was defending him with Chencheng soon, but he dove into Wang Li’s meticulously laid out bag.
There was no need to elaborate any further on the results, Cai Chang had been completely wiped out. He was surrounded. He could not get out of the conflict and could only sigh, “Since the heavens want to kill him, why would they want to kill me, Zhang Chu?” With that, he wiped his neck with his sword and the Cai Chang who had been taken as his father, Cai Chang, died in the army.
The descendants of the Mo family, relying on their strong martial arts, had finally made it out of the encirclement. However, there were also heavy casualties. Out of a thousand disciples, only less than a hundred remained.
Ju Zi knew that the momentum was gone, so he sent his disciples back to the Wanzai Valley. Travelling across mountains and rivers, he came to the clear stream of Weidi to find the Young Master Han that she had placed her hopes on.
Marquis of Wucheng Wang Li had easily taken care of Cai Chang’s great army, so he was no longer afraid.
They had originally hoped that they would encounter a bloody battle, but who knew that the gates of Chencheng would be opened so wide? When Chen Sheng heard that the Qin Army had arrived, he was already frightened stiff. He led the civil and military officials, and the big and small concubines abandoned the city to flee.
Wang Li said: “If we do not get rid of Chen Wei, he will become a huge threat in the end.” They waited for the arrival of Zhang Han’s army and rode on their own, galloping straight to the east to chase Chen Sheng who was at the end of the road.
