I Became the Legendary Emperor Throughout the Ages After I Started Giving Away My Territory
Chapter Summary
Elder Qian Yuan observed the terrain carefully and then approached a small stone mountain that seemed to pierce the sky, saying, “This should be the place! His Majesty said that if we combine our strength and destroy this stone mountain, then a landslide will occur on the Luofeng Highway 30 li away, burying the Great Luo army! ”Elder Lai looked at the small stone mountain, only seventy feet high, and said, “Will it really collapse?
Elder Qian Yuan observed the terrain carefully and then approached a small stone mountain that seemed to pierce the sky, saying, “This should be the place!
His Majesty said that if we combine our strength and destroy this stone mountain, then a landslide will occur on the Luofeng Highway 30 li away, burying the Great Luo army!
”Elder Lai looked at the small stone mountain, only seventy feet high, and said, “Will it really collapse?
I feel a bit doubtful!
”Elder Qian sighed, “I don’t know either!
But since it’s His Majesty’s command, we’ll just follow it!
”The other Beggar Sect elders nodded in agreement: “That’s true!
”Then, they secretly lay in ambush, quietly waiting for the Great Luo army.
About two hours later, one of the elders became excited: “They’re coming, the Great Luo army is coming!
”They all looked into the distance and saw a large force slowly approaching.
They were carrying the Great Luo banners, wearing the distinctive armor of the Great Luo Dynasty, and loaded with food and other treasures like gold and silver.
They returned triumphantly.
Elder Qian said calmly, “Everyone, be ready.
When the Great Luo army gets close, we’ll strike the stone mountain and ensure they can’t return!
”“Okay!
” everyone responded in unison, continuing to wait patiently.
Meanwhile, the Great Luo army continued its majestic advance.
In the middle of the troops, there was a general wearing silver-white armor with a square face and a tall and mighty stature.
His name was Li Sifang, an Innate Astral Qi level warrior.
He was experienced in battle, powerful, and extremely loyal, which is why the Great Luo Emperor appointed him as the Marshal for this northern expedition.
But at this moment, he glanced at the surrounding mountains and frowned deeply.
The Left General, concerned, asked, “Marshal, what’s wrong?
Are you feeling unwell?
”“That’s not it!
With my cultivation, how could I be plagued by common illness?
”Marshal Li exhaled and continued to survey the surroundings, saying, “I don’t know why, but I have a bad feeling.
Everyone, be on high alert for an ambush!
”“An ambush?
” The Left General was taken aback.
He also looked around and said, “Marshal, you’re worrying over nothing!
Look at this place, it’s all open ground and nothing is hidden!
Even if there are high mountains and forests, they are far from the main road!
How could the enemy ambush us?
”Marshal Li’s expression remained serious: “I don’t know either, but I trust my instincts!
In any case, it’s better to be cautious!
Pass the order, tell everyone to be on high alert!
”“Yes, Marshal!
”The Left General immediately shouted, “The Marshal commands: This place might be dangerous, be on high alert and watch out for ambushes!
”The command was swiftly relayed throughout the entire army.
“The Marshal commands!
This place might be dangerous, be on high alert and watch out for ambushes!
”Then, each soldier picked up their swords or spears, and those on the outer formation also raised their shields, advancing with great vigilance.
In addition, numerous scouts were dispatched to investigate the surroundings.
The elders of the Beggar Sect watching from a distance were taken aback.
“Putting the entire army on high alert?
Could it be that Li Sifang has discovered us?
”“It’s unlikely that he has discovered us, given how well we’ve hidden ourselves!
It’s probably just intuition.
Strong individuals have intuition, and for a general who has spent years leading troops in battle and hovering between life and death like him, his intuition is even sharper!
”“That’s true!
It seems Li Sifang really has some skills, no wonder he is highly valued by the Great Luo Emperor!
”“We should not act rashly; let’s just wait and see!
”“I wonder if His Majesty’s plan will work?
”An hour passed quickly, and nothing happened.
Even the scouts who had been sent out returned without any findings.
Consequently, the army gradually lowered its guard.
Only Marshal Li Sifang felt an increasing sense of crisis in his heart and shouted loudly, “Continue to stay alert, do not relax!
Anyone who disobeys will face military law!
”“Yes, Marshal!
” the army responded.
“And you!
”Marshal Li turned to the few Innate experts beside him and said, “Go scout the surroundings and see if you can find anything!
”“Marshal, do we really need to go too?
” The Innate experts all made faces of displeasure.
Marshal Li barked, “If I tell you to go, then go quickly, stop dawdling!
”“Yes, Marshal!
” Four Innate experts set off in four different directions.
One of them headed towards the direction where the Beggar Sect elders were hiding.
It’s just a pity that when Innate-level powerhouses choose to conceal themselves, even their peers at the same level find it very difficult to detect them.
So, their return without success was inevitable.
In less than the time it takes an incense stick to burn, the four Innate experts returned, still empty-handed.
A thought unavoidably rose in Marshal Li’s mind.
Could it be that I’m just being paranoid?
Just at that moment, the Great Luo army had entered the Luofeng Highway.
This road connects the Great Luo Dynasty with the Great Feng Dynasty and is usually traversed by merchants conducting business between the two nations.
Due to the heavy traffic, the road was well-trodden and flat, leading straight to the fortress.
Here, there seemed to be no possibility of an ambush.
However, this was the perfect place to stage an ambush for the elders of the Beggar Sect!
The moment they had long awaited had finally arrived!
“Do it!
”They struck together with all their might at a small stone mountain.
“Boom!
”The small stone mountain collapsed.
As if breaking a balance, the Luofeng Avenue thirty li away suddenly began to tremble and shake.
“Rumble, rumble, rumble…”The soldiers of Great Luo were thrown into chaos.
“What’s happening?
Why is the ground shaking?
”“Could it be that the earth dragon is turning over?
”“Isn’t it rare for earthquakes to happen here?
”“This is dangerous!
”The horses spooked and ran wildly, injuring many people.
Marshal Li bellowed, “It’s just an ordinary earth dragon turning over, everyone stay calm!
Quickly get a hold of your horses and don’t let them run wild!
”But just then, with a thunderous crash, the smooth road suddenly broke into several pieces and then plummeted downwards.
The soldiers on the road couldn’t dodge in time and fell even faster.
“Help, I’m falling!
”“Someone give me a hand!
”“I don’t want to die, pull me up!
”“Neigh~~”The cries of the soldiers and the horses merged into a tragic chorus.
Marshal Li, witnessing this horrific scene, was furious and roared, “Save them!
Quickly save them!
”However, with his limited strength, how many could he save?
He could only watch helplessly as the soldiers he led fell one group after another.
At this time, the land around the road also began to collapse, swallowing everything in its path.
Marshal Li watched as his once mighty army disappeared and let out a mournful roar, “No!!!
”After a short period, everything settled down.
The once grand Luofeng Highway was gone, replaced by a huge and bottomless pit, burying countless people.
Only Marshal Li and a few exceptionally strong generals managed to escape.
But how many of them were there?
In the distance, the elders of the Beggar Sect stared at the enormous pit with wide eyes, trembling.
“Goodness!
A million soldiers gone just like that?
”“We only destroyed a small stone mountain here, and yet…”“It’s too horrifying, too frightening!
I’ve never killed so many people in my life!
”“With so many soldiers gone… the Great Luo Dynasty is in trouble!
”“Our plan has succeeded!
Let’s go back and report the good news to His Majesty!
”“His Majesty will surely reward us handsomely, hehe!
”The elders of the Beggar Sect left with a profound sense of shock.
