his official rank was significantly higher than Xu Junlou's.Otherwise, he would not have been eligible to take the palace examination, but Xu Junlou lost that opportunity.What truly bothered Hou Yushu...Chapter 1839: A Counterattack

With his cultivation of half-step terrestrial immortal realm, he failed to break through the military formation and assassinate a Qin general. Yuan Shidao could already imagine the look on Yelu Shenxuan's face when he returned to report – as grim as if he had seen his mother die.

Thinking about this, he became increasingly enraged at the soldiers around him who were blocking his path. He let out a long roar, and with his long sword, the blade danced like flowers in the air. Every flash of his sword would take several lives.

At this moment, Su Pingbei had fled in disarray to the foot of Tiger Leap Cliff, returning to safety only under the protection of his men.

After tallying the losses, Su Pingbei discovered that over five hundred of his men had been killed by Yuan Shidao. Su Pingbei's lungs were about to explode with fury!

"Damn it! I can't swallow this!"

Su Pingbei's eyes were fierce like a lone wolf, gritting his teeth and saying: "Over five hundred brothers! More than five hundred brothers died for me!"

He abruptly raised his head and looked at the silent soldiers surrounding him, gritting his teeth and saying: "You guys, dare you go with me for a big score!"

"Let's make one thing clear: if we go, it's highly likely none of us will come back, and success isn't guaranteed. But if we succeed, it will absolutely drive those damn Liao dogs crazy!"

"Anyone who doesn't want to go can leave immediately. I won't hold it against you. The people from the Su family are reliable, and this mission is basically already done. Everyone here will get a share of military merit if they just go back. On the other hand, what I'm about to do next isn't authorized. It's acting on my own, and I could lose my life or even be punished by General Wu. But I can't stand for this! Who's willing to come with me"

Once these words were spoken, the soldiers present looked at each other in surprise. Then someone shouted angrily, "General Su, just say what you want! The brothers will not even frown!"

Su Ping laughed wildly and stood up, saying, "Good, this old man decides to lure that damn thing over and kill it!"

"I have this in my hand."

"Su Pingbei spoke, unfastening a cloth bag from his waist. Opening it, he revealed seven or eight Great Qin divine thunders."

Looking at the Great Qin Thunderbolts in the bag, Su Pingbei said with fanaticism, "This is what was left from the last mission and I didn't have time to turn it in. No matter how powerful that dog's martial arts are, he won't be able to withstand this. But it has to explode close to his body, otherwise, with his reaction speed, he'll definitely dodge it, and then our efforts will be for nothing."

Looking up, Su Pingbei's eyes glinted with a fierce light. He said, "That bastard must be a master raised by the Liao army, sent to Tiger Jump Cliff to kill me. I used myself as bait to lure him here, and buried this thing in advance. As soon as he gets close, it will explode and kill him!"

Someone exclaimed in surprise, "But he's so fast, wouldn't he have been caught before he even reached here"

Su Pingbei sneered coldly, "So this is why I need everyone's help. We still have over 2,000 people here. The Liao army in Tiger Leap Cliff is now severely wounded and it takes half a day to clean up the corpses. They absolutely wouldn't expect us to make a comeback. Let's charge together and kill a batch of Liao troops. That bastard will definitely come looking for me when he can't bear it. As long as we delay his steps and allow me to successfully reach where the Great Qin Thunder is buried, it will be his death!"

All the soldiers present looked at each other and shouted in unison, "We obey your orders, General!"anji and Dantai Jingzhi stood as the leaders of the civil officials, while Su Zhen'ting stood as the leader of the military officials. The three simultaneously bowed deeply and shouted in unison."See...
