After hearing Gao Jianli's reminder, Jing Ke immediately understood what was going on, and immediately sat down, secretly adjusting his state of mind, and after adjusting the internal energy of the Mo family's mental cultivation method, he went through all the meridians and meridians in his body, and immediately, a warm energy flowed through the Baihui Acupoint, Jianli Acupoint, Yongquan Acupoint, Taiyuan Acupoint, and other major meridians in his head, as well as dissipating a lot of the previously chaotic energy. At this time, he heard another burst of rapid melody mixed with a soothing rhythm. He didn't have time to think about it any further as he hastily used his luck to counter it, preventing the inner strength from reaching his ears.

At this time, the six armies that were attacking the city were also confused by the zither music. Their minds seemed to have flown to the highest heavens as they watched the waves of black clouds floating over from the horizon. The six armies were bewitched by the sound and stopped in their tracks. Suddenly, a burst of shouts reverberated from the top of Oak Sun City's tower. Then, a burst of arrows and halberds flew out from the Qin Army, catching all the soldiers who had climbed up the tower by surprise. The soldiers of the six armies were being controlled by this strange zither music. They could no longer control their movements and were no longer able to withstand the sudden attacks of the Qin soldiers. They were immediately amputated and blood splattered in all directions.

Jing Ke was wondering why his profound martial arts skills were affected by this zither music, but these Qin soldiers who didn't know anything about martial arts were completely unaffected by the zither music. Taking a closer look, it was as if the Qin soldiers all heard something similar to Ge Bu and immediately understood. When the three of them heard the two 'clang clang' sounds earlier, it turned out that they had heard the secret signal that was agreed upon. After obtaining this secret signal, they immediately circulated their energy to seal the Listening Point next to their ears. Once the acupoint was sealed, it was as if their ears had been blocked, preventing them from hearing any sounds from the outside world, and thus, they would not be affected by the zither sound.

Thinking to this point, Jing Ke couldn't help but feel fear in his heart. So it turned out that the Qin army had already made arrangements, so that they could first withdraw five miles of defense, allowing the six armies to rush forward to attack Oak Sun City, and then using the Duke of Qin as bait, inciting the Qin army to fight to the death, forcing the six armies to move out, and then using this breathtaking zither music to capture the six armies. He had been caught in the middle of the crowd and had not noticed the flaw in his scheme at all. He had led his brothers and the six troops to lead the sheep into the tiger's den. Now, he had fallen into this predicament of being annihilated at any moment.

The more he thought about it, the more terrifying he felt. Not daring to think any further, he opened his eyes and shouted at Gao Jianli, "Big Brother Gao, quickly seal your Listening Point!" When Gao Jianli heard Jing Ke's words, he immediately understood. With two of his fingers, he sealed his listening acupoints. Like this, the two of them were no longer affected by the zither music and once again gained the upper hand against the three elders' attack. But Jing Ke was in no mood to fight. He only wanted to break out of the siege as soon as possible and report to Sun Pai so that the entire army could withdraw from Oak City as soon as possible, lest they suffer even greater losses.

He was just worrying that there was nothing he could do, but suddenly, he saw a scolding Thief who was constantly scolding him. His heart was immediately lit up, and he immediately shouted at him: "Senior Thief Thief Sheng, the Qin Army is going to ambush Advisor Sun, quickly go and protect him."

After hearing Jing Ke's words, Thief Sheng believed him, thinking that his plan of capturing Ying Zheng alive had already been foiled, so he might as well save his life, which could also be considered a great achievement. But just as he wanted to leave due to luck, he felt that this zither music had disturbed his internal energy, but his unique lightness skill did not have the slightest bit of strength.

Jing Ke knew early on that he was trapped by the zither music, he immediately shouted, "Senior can seal your own hearing acupoints, so as to not be disturbed by this zither music."

After hearing Jing Ke's words, he happily shouted, "Good method!", and following Jing Ke's instructions, he sealed his own listening acupoints, then adjusted his spirit to condense Qi. His feet moved in all directions, flying from the tower towards Sun Tong.

And at this time, the sound of the drum and guqin on the tower was even more mysterious. The waves of the profound cranes circled around in all four directions before suddenly ending with a melody. Everyone looked over and saw the sand and stones flying in the south. Lightning flashed and thunder rumbled. The blurry area looked like a mad dragon shrouded in black gas. It bared its fangs and brandished its claws as it charged towards Oak City. Animals often have the instinct to foretell, so these Xuan Crane must have sensed the approaching danger, so they scattered in all directions.

The Thief's movement technique was extremely swift and fierce. In just a few moments, he had already arrived in front of Sun Bian. But at this moment, he saw Sun Pa's face turn pale, as if he had been seriously injured by a powerful enemy. He couldn't help but be puzzled, "Could it be that Qin Thief has secretly tried to kill Advisor Sun?" At this time, he turned his head to look and saw that the people next to Sun Pai, including Gong Zhuang Rong, Qing Yu, Qing Shu and the others, were also frowning, but they did not have the slightest trace of a struggle. It was obvious that these people were also suffering from internal breathing disorder, but their expressions of worry were much more than their physical and mental shock. Only now did Thief Sheng realize that Sun Pa had not been ambushed by any Qin soldiers, but had been invaded by the zither music. His weak body had been severely injured, and he was now as pale as a sheet of paper, on the verge of death.

When he realized this, Thief shouted, "Quick, cover the instructor's ears!" He had intended to seal Sun's listening points, but the lock had to be a physical injury after all, and Sun was too old to bear the strain, so he had thought to cover his ears to prevent the rhythm from invading his internal breathing.

Sure enough, Sun Ba's ears were covered by Qing Yu. He gradually recovered from his absent-mindedness. His confused expression first changed to shock, then he bitterly smiled and said: "Destiny cannot be disobeyed, ultimately it cannot be escaped." Then, he coughed out a mouthful of blood and sputum.

When Qing Yu saw this, he was so scared that his face turned pale. He immediately grabbed the dying Sun Bian and started running towards the back of the camp. Quickly, he tore off a piece of cloth from his body and split it into two, stuffing it into Sun's ears.

As for the zither music atop the city gate tower, it was resounding without end. Seeing the gale and dancing were about to engulf the soldiers below, for some reason, another zither music slowly flowed into the originally hurried zither music like water, diluting the zither music so much that it seemed as if it was filled with killing intent. At the corner of the tower, the old man in a simple robe was immersed in the melody he was playing. Suddenly, he realized that the melody was mixed in with his melody. He couldn't help but exclaim, "Eh?!" His hands that were lightly fiddling with the zither strings also came to a stop. The moment his melody arrived, the black gas that was dancing wildly in the distance vanished without a trace. Ten thousand rays of light burst out of the sky and bathed the entire Oak Sun City once again.

Everyone was shocked, even the Jin Three Elders and the Qin soldiers themselves were bewildered. Looking at the tens of thousands of rays of light in the air, they looked at each other in dismay, not knowing what had happened. Seeing that this sudden turn of events was the perfect time for him to escape, Jing Ke immediately kicked his feet and flew out from the encirclement of the three Jin Elders. He had been secretly cultivating for a long time, but now that he was full of inner energy, he charged out and arrived at the edge of the city wall in an instant.

Eldest Brother, Eldest Brother Gao, let's go!" He shouted at Tian Gan and Gao Jianli. While he was shouting, he discovered that Gao Jianli was sitting upright on the side, with his left hand holding the zither, while his right hand was fiddling with the zither strings, and steam was rising from above his head. Hearing Jing Ke's words, he actually didn't move at all, as if he hadn't heard them at all. Only now did Jing Ke realize that the melody just now was as clear as water due to Gao Jianli risking his own internal energy to disturb the zither music, but now that he saw the white smoke floating above his head, he couldn't move at all. It was obvious that his internal energy had been consumed too much, and he no longer had any internal energy left to move his body.

Jing Ke followed the enemy and flashed to Gao Jianli's side, and coincidentally, Tian Gan also flew over. It seemed that he also saw that Gao Jianli had lost a large amount of his true essence, so he rushed over to save him. The two of them, one on each side, grabbed Gao Jianli's shoulders and flew down from the top of Oak Sun City.

Arriving below the city walls, Jing Ke shouted at Sima Shang, Han Jue, and the others, "General Sima, General Han, General Xiang, quickly retreat!" Sima Shang and the others had just experienced this terrible turn of events and were still lost in their own world. When they suddenly heard Jing Ke's shout, they immediately felt as if they had woken up from a dream, though they didn't know why. Since Jing Ke had shouted this, they didn't care about asking for the reason and immediately ordered their subordinates to retreat. Han Jue, Xiang Yan, Hou Sheng, Su Li, Tu Xin, and the others, seeing that the vanguard had turned around and retreated, also gave orders to their respective headquarters. In an instant, the allied forces of the six nations dispersed from Oak Sun City like a swarm of startled ants, retreating towards the rear camp of the great army.

One of the people on top of the city wall, dressed in luxurious clothing and carrying a jade belt, watched as the six armies retreated. He couldn't help but be shocked and anxious, repeatedly stomping his feet with his fists. This man was the Prime Minister of the Qin Nation, Reese. Reese had plotted this evil scheme with all his might. He originally wanted to capture all six armies in one fell swoop, but now that he was about to succeed, how could he not be anxious? However, even though he was anxious, he didn't dare to offend the old man in the green robe who sat on the floor beside him. He only asked humbly and carefully, "Sir, there's no way we can defeat the gods and ghosts of the Clear Horn Art, but why do we have to stop halfway?"

That old man was the blind Shi Liang. He didn't pay any attention to Reese's inquiry, only mumbling to himself, "Could it be that this song is still being spread throughout the world?" However, after muttering to himself for a moment, he shook his head and said, "Impossible, impossible."

Seeing that he actually did not respond to her question, and that he was already so anxious that his heart was burning, he could not help but feel angry. After glaring at Shi Liang a few times, he finally spoke to the servants around him in a calm voice, "Looks like mister has expended too much mental energy today. I'm also tired. Hurry and serve mister, go to the inner hall to rest."

A few of the servants answered, and then turned towards Shi Kuang and said very respectfully: "Master Shi, please." They then bowed to help Shi Kuang back to the inner chamber, but Shi Kuang ignored their words, lowering his head in thought. Helplessly, the leading servant gave a meaningful glance to the others, then lifted up the wooden couch that Shi Kuang and the others were sitting on, and walked towards the inner hall.

After the servant carried Shi Kuang away, three strange people dressed in strange attire slowly walked over. When they saw Reese, they immediately bowed and said: "This subordinate is incompetent and was unable to protect the King's whole body, causing the King to feel frightened." The three of them spoke at the same time with the same thoughts in their hearts. Naturally, they were the personal bodyguards of Reese, and they advanced to the ranks of the three old men with no dirt, no ambition, and no intentions.

In his heart, Reese knew that the reason why the annihilation of the six armies was on the verge of success today was because Shi Kuang had suddenly stopped playing the < Clear Horn >. As for the three of them, although they had teamed up to protect the emperor, the Mo family's son, Jing Ke, was a great martial artist, so the three of them might not be able to beat him. Now that they had failed, the three of them naturally could not win against him. "I have ordered some people to arrange a fine wine, delicacies, and generous rewards. The three of you just need to go and receive them.

"Thank you, Prime Minister, for your kindness." The three of them bowed to Reese once more before leaving.

He knew that in today's battle, he could be said to have painstakingly plotted for a very long time. Before, he was worried that he might not be able to fool Sun Bian, but unexpectedly, things went much more smoothly than he had imagined. However, he did not expect that the good news would come and go so quickly. Although Sun Pai had fallen into his clutches, and the six armies had become the fish on the chopping block, Shi Wuya had broken the melody of "Clear Horn" at this time, allowing these people who were in danger to escape from death. Thinking of this, he whispered: "It is a blessing for a disaster to rely on." After muttering to himself irresolutely, his eyes suddenly dimmed. He bitterly smiled and shook his head before leaving.

After Sun Pa's mind was severely damaged by Qing Jiao, he lay on the bed, coughing up blood. Jing Ke, Gong Huorong, Qing Yu, Qing Shu, Gao Jianli, Tian Gan, and the other brothers of the Pai Sword League were all standing at the side, feeling extremely worried and sad. At this moment, a figure suddenly rushed into the camp and headed straight for Sun Biao's bed. Before he even reached the bed, he impatiently reported, "Advisor Sun, Advisor Sun, this Qin thief is sneaky. He actually dug a secret tunnel in the ground and hid himself amongst the elite soldiers. I'm afraid our army will be ambushed by a Qin Thief!"
