C292 Let Them Fight
"After so many years, I didn't think that everything here still hasn't changed. It's still so comfortable. " Dou Tianlai's voice carried some emotion.
"It is indeed a good place. The only flaw is that the killing intent in the air is too heavy. If you feel it carefully, you will almost suffocate. " Lin Qing frowned and said. To be able to make the Second General of the Imperial Army say such a thing, it showed how strong the killing intent in this place was.
"This is unavoidable. You should know that almost two-thirds of our forces are gathered here. Normally, not to mention fighting a war, the army of a million is only going for that war. How can the momentum that is revealed be easy? Over time. Naturally, it will turn into such a situation. " Speaking of this, Cui Ming gave Meng Bufan, who was walking in front of him, a meaningful look. He smiled and said, "The person who grows up in this kind of environment, Commander Lin. Although he has just broken through to the Attack Stopping Stage not long ago, you are already a peak expert. Moreover, you are quite skilled in speed, but if we really fight. . . You might not be able to defeat him. "
Upon hearing these words, Lin Qing immediately became unhappy. Although this man was outstanding, he was still a top expert at the early stage of the Deflecting Blade Martial School. Furthermore, he had the advantage in speed. At the very least, the two of them would be able to fight to a draw, right?
"Lord Cui, you can't say that. Don't tell me that I, Lin Qing, can't even withstand a single blow from you?"
"Haha, I was just making a joke out of it. " Cui Ming knew that he had misspoken. He hurriedly laughed and said, "Haha, since Commander Lin is able to take the position of the second commander of the one hundred thousand guards, he naturally has his own outstanding qualities. How can he be so vulnerable? I've said it before. Commander Lin, don't mind me. "
"His outstanding qualities?" Lin Qing sneered and said, "Sir, are you saying that I do not live up to my reputation as the second commander?"
Cui Ming smiled bitterly and said, "That is not the case, Commander Lin. . . "
However, before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Lin Qing's loud laughter. "Since Master Cui said that this person is so powerful and looks down on me, I would like to meet him and see if what Master Cui said is true or if Master Cui accidentally looked at me. Jia!"
After he finished speaking, he actually urged his horse forward and shouted, "Meng Bufan, do you dare to fight with me?"
Cui Ming saw that he had really rushed over and immediately pulled the reins to chase him back. At this time, Dou Tianlai reached out and stopped him. He smiled and said, "No need to chase after him, let them fight. "
Cui Ming said, "But now. . . "
"Hmm? Don't tell me you don't understand what I'm saying?" Dou Tianlai immediately widened his tiger eyes and stared back at him. After which, he waved his hand behind him and said. "Pass on my order. Everyone, stand by and watch the battle!"
"Clang! Clang! Clang ~! "
Instantly, the fifty thousand Imperial Army soldiers stopped in their tracks, and the moment their weapons touched the ground, a heaven-shaking boom rang out.
At this moment, the squad that Meng Bufan was in also noticed something strange. He immediately turned his head and saw a burly man riding a warhorse over with a heavy sword in his hand. He was filled with killing intent. With a quick glance, he also said that it was an enemy attack. With a "Ceng," he drew his weapon and was about to fight. However, he was stopped by Meng Bufan and said, "Don't move. I will deal with this person alone for a while!"
Others might not have noticed, but he had secretly paid attention to Lin Qing the moment he saw Dou Tianlai and the others. Perhaps it was because the two of them had similar cultivation base, he couldn't help but take a few more glances at Lin Qing. Only now did he remember Lin Qing's appearance. Now, seeing his combat intent soaring to the sky, When he thought of the words he had shouted, he immediately understood what was going on. Without hesitating, he shook his hand. The long sword drew a few sharp sword flower in the air, dazzling everyone. Meng Bufan had already rushed towards the man and horse behind him with his sword in hand.
"Don't be insolent. Allow me to fight you!"
Both of them were experts. The distance of a few hundred meters was covered in a blink of an eye. At this moment, Lin Qing had already dismounted from his horse. The two of them confronted each other for only a split second. Under the incredulous gazes of the crowd, the two figures quickly exchanged blows.
"Dang!" A sound was heard, and the two of them left as soon as they touched each other. Each of them had a surprised look on their faces as they looked at each other. When experts exchanged blows, victory and defeat usually occurred in an instant. Therefore, although the two of them seemed to be testing each other, they had actually used their full strength, but they had never thought that neither of them would gain the upper hand.
"Good kid. Take another strike from me!" Lin Qing wasn't angry when he saw this, but he was delighted instead when he saw this, and the combat intent in his entire body became even more intense. He raised the heavy sword and swung it directly, causing a fierce wind to arise, and it swept up countless grains of sand and sand, whereas he slashed out with an earth-shattering sword strike. Instantly, the sword light was like a cold bolt of lightning, piercingly cold and piercing to the eyes!
Meng Bufan was not to be outdone. Although his speed was not as fast as Lin Qing's, he still did not want to be outdone. He had been threatened by life and death on the battlefield all year round, which made his instinct stronger. Usually, when he felt danger at the beginning, his body could not help but react. It was the same as a conditioned reflex, and as he swung his sword, His figure also became erratic, making it hard to differentiate between left and right.
"Bang!"
Lin Qing's overbearing sword attack caused the ground to collapse, but it did not successfully hit Meng Bufan. When he was late, he saw Meng Bufan appear behind him like a ghost. He swung his sword backwards and thrust it at Lin Qing's neck.
It was not his fault that he did not know what to do. For a soldier, it was very difficult to do something in a fight. Their purpose of practicing martial arts was not to spar with others, but to kill their opponent effectively. So once they attacked, there would definitely only be two outcomes. Life, death.
Just as everyone was breaking out in cold sweat for Lin Qing, they saw Lin Qing suddenly roll on the ground like a lazy donkey. It was this very indecent posture that saved his life. Meng Bufan saw that his sword had pierced empty air. He didn't show the slightest change in expression. His toes pressed on the ground as he turned around abruptly. At the same time, he thrust out another sword with his hand, but it wasn't successful. The sword arrived again!
"Don't move, just wait!" Dou Tianlai shouted and stopped Cui Ming and the others who wanted to stop the fight. He twisted his head and said: "Let them fight, I will kill them!"
Only then did everyone give up and continue to stand and watch the fight. However, they didn't feel relaxed at all, especially Cui Ming. When he saw Lin Qing, his heart almost jumped out of his throat. He cursed himself for being so shameless. Lin Qing was a warmonger to begin with. There was no need for Cui Ming to say those words to provoke him.
As for the happiest person, it was undoubtedly Dou Tianlai. He had wanted to see how much Meng Bufan had grown since the beginning. However, as an opponent, Lin Qing was undoubtedly the best candidate for the early stage of the battle. Therefore, even without Cui Ming's words just now, he would probably find a reason to stir up a fight between the two of them. Now, Cui Ming's words had fulfilled his wish.
"Heh, this old brat does have a pleasing side to him. " Dou Tianlai looked at the two men who were fighting with their lives on the line and said with a smile that seemed to have no heart or lungs.
