Sword Among Us

Panda Novel

The battle between the two armies had already ended on the plains.

Not only had the battle between the Mongolian cavaliers and the Chinese army come to a conclusion, the battle between Class One Hall and the four sects also came to an end.

A lot of people were now gone from the camp.

A group of Mu Clan members had just entered the camp after they finished a quest, and they were just in time to run into Chivalry Sect’s master, Wind Void, who led a group of people and a battalion of cavaliers numbering to more than three thousand. They headed outside hastily.

“Sect Master Void, Vice Sect Master Lin!” Thunderous Battle grinned and stopped moving to greet them. “Your cavalier battalions are getting more majestic now!”

“Hehe, isn’t it the same for you, Clan Master Thunder? I heard that all Mu Clan members have military ranks now, and we wouldn’t dare slack off.”

Wind Void and Lin Xiao’s eyes lit up, and they went to Thunderous Battle at the same time. “Brother Thunder, how are your rewards this time?”

“Let’s not talk about that, the war today is almost at an end. The cowards from Class One Hall are really uninteresting. They all fled without a trace, and I ended leading my group of people around with nothing to do.” But even though Thunderous Battle said that, his face was red, and he appeared to be in high spirits.

Class One Hall’s disappearance from the plains was naturally something good to Mu Clan.

“Haha! It’s the same for us! Also, our friends from Wind Assault Tower as well as Wind and Rain Alliance have expanded their search area, but they didn’t manage to find any people from Class One Hall on the plains. I reckon that they’re really scared of us after the beat down, and they don’t have the courage to enter anymore.” Lin Xiao grinned.

Wind Void and the people from Chivalry Sect were all incredibly excited.

Ever since Class One Hall set up an ambush in Eternal Peace Temple and nearly destroyed the three giants of Chivalry Sect, the people from Chivalry Sect had always remembered how kindly Class One Hall had treated them, but they always had a hard time shaking Class One Hall’s core because of how strong it was. They never had a chance to attack, and now, since they could personally destroy Class One Hall’s prestige and caused Class One Hall to suffer such a huge loss, they felt as if they had vented a huge part of their anger!

“By the way, where are you going?” Thunderous Battle smiled as he swept a glance at the battalion behind Lin Xiao and Wind Void.

Wind Void explained the situation to Thunderous Battle, “Heh, it’s like this. We were just prepared to come to you for a discussion. There are about ten thousand people who still don’t have military titles from Chivalry Sect, Wind Assault Tower, as well as Wind and Rain Alliance. The leaders met each other for a moment just now and came to a discussion. We thought that Class One Hall might not accept their fate, and they might have other operations under planning. That’s why I’m thinking about using this chance to trigger a group quest with my people and help my remaining friends get their military titles.”

“Oh.” Thunderous Battle nodded.

Wind Void’s worry was within reason.

After all, the Emperor’s Announcement event had just begun, and Class One Hall was the lord of the north. Right now, they had one hundred thousand of their soldiers being chased out by the four sects working together, and this happened right in front of the heroes of the world. Not only did they have their dignity completely crushed, if they completely retreated, it will mean that they will miss out on a large number of plot relevant quests provided by the system during the Emperor’s Announcement event.

With Dream Clouds’ temperament, she will definitely think of a way to turn the tides!

“If you leave, what will happen to the defense in the plains?” Thunderous Battle asked.

Wind Void quickly explained. “Big Brother Thunder, don’t worry. I’ve already discussed matters with Phantasmal Shadow and Night Rain Follows Wind.

“Today, Chivalry Sect will be in charge of doing quests, while they’re in charge of continuing to be on guard and search through the plains. They will not give Class One Hall the chance to enter the plains. Tomorrow, Wind and Rain Alliance will send a group of people out to do quests.”

“Then, there’s no problem.” Thunderous Battle instantly felt relieved.

If they only had a small group of people missing from the patrol force, even if Class One Hall knew about it, they might not have the courage to enter the plains.

“Then I wish all of you success in your quest, my friends from Chivalry Sect!”

“I wish you success in your quest!”

The people from Mu Clan wrapped their fists in their palms and sent the Chivalry Sect members away.

*****

At the area near the Mongolian camp, the two thousand cavaliers led by Silver Wolf had already successfully lured out ten thousand Mongolian cavaliers. They circled round the area several miles away from the camp like a swimming dragon for a while and led a black wave rolling toward them.

Rumble!

The ground trembled!

“Red Dust!” Even though they brought quite a number of cavaliers this time with them without Happy’s interference, Silver Wolf did not dare to slack off in the slightest. Once he rushed one-third of a mile away from where he originally was, he shouted loudly at Red Dust to prepare his operation.

“Coming!”

Red Dust shouted with a red face. He raised his arm up high, and the restless battalion of three thousand cavaliers behind him immediately charged down the slope.

Rumble!

The cavaliers came down in waves.

Four hundred Mu Clan and Chivalry Sect elites were mixed among the cavaliers, and they launched a charge at the ten thousand Mongolian cavaliers from the flank!

Red Dust knew that the situation today was different from yesterday.

Yesterday, they had twenty thousand elites, and they were united, which was why they did not face too much pressure.

But it was different today. They only had four hundred elites and five hundred Chinese cavaliers who were weaker than Mongolian cavaliers. They did not have a peerless elite like Happy taking the initiative to attack and interfere with the enemy’s formation during their charge, so they faced quite a lot of pressure.

Red Dust rushed right in front of the cavaliers, and while he tugged at his horse to charge forward, he shouted loudly, “Remember, get their horses first!”

“ROAR!”

The four hundred or so elites behind him used their own method to answer to Red Dust’s reminder. With high morale, they rushed to the black mass of Mongolian cavaliers who moved like a black steel dragon.

“Kill them!”

Right when their roars rose, they heard numerous sounds of something being strung tight rise among the thunderous hooves!

The Chinese cavaliers brought up their shields.

Countless fierce arrows rose from the Mongolian army in the distance, and they quickly filled up a small part of the sky!

In the next second, two hundred of the three thousand cavaliers Red Dust led immediately died. Shrill neighs and pained screams rose nonstop.

Two short waves of arrow showers later, no fewer than five hundred Chinese cavaliers died.

Red Dust and the group of elites from Mu Clan and Chivalry Sect revealed themselves at the front of the charge. With a fierce and sharp presence, they let out hysterical shouts.

“Kill them!”

With the group of cavaliers beside them providing them with cover, they did not suffer much damage when they faced an arrow shower coming at them horizontally, and they were completely unharmed.

The elites who lasted through the two arrow showers were like tigers released from their shackles. They instantly arrived in front of the Mongolian cavaliers.

Shriek!

A shrill whistle came right at their faces, and the brutal blades brought with them horrifying blood. They viciously cut into the areas where the Mongolian cavaliers were not protected by metallic scales, and those blades tore through them.

The powerful warhorses and strong cavaliers could only sense a cold and harsh wind from the ground slice past them, then, they, along with their horses, lost their balance, and they fell swiftly to the ground while shrill neighs rose from among them.

The four hundred elites were like fierce tigers who rushed into a herd of sheep. They brought with a strong and boorish presence like that of a god of death, and they rushed among the Mongolian cavaliers with the strength to mow down all resistances. Their offense was brutal and difficult to withstand!

When the Mongolian cavaliers faced this charge, their charge ran into a complete brick wall.

Hundreds of dead bodies belonging to people and horses blocked the path ahead of them.

Even the Chinese armies behind the players had to step over the corpses all over the ground and launch charges with great difficulty so that they can kill and rush into the Mongolian cavaliers’ formation.

Rumble!

The charge from the Mongolian cavaliers had just been completely destroyed by the four hundred elites, and Silver Wolf had already led his two thousand cavaliers to turn around without ever stopping and lead a charge from a another direction to ram into the Mongolian cavaliers’ other flank viciously.

A chaotic battle began!
