Chapter 341: To live, or die in shame
is this the power of a grandmaster?
soaked by the sudden giant wave, luo shuang couldn't help but swallow nervously. she hurriedly wiped the water off her face and looked towards the bottom of the river.
where is master?
please don't let anything happen!
...
"cao lin, you're already blind. why don't you surrender?"
long before cao lin's blade fell, du ge had already retreated upstream. now, he was riding the surging river downstream.
his mental power directly affected his soul. once it surpassed three hundred thousand, the power of poseidon began to nourish his body from within. leng shi's body seemed to have developed an affinity for water, allowing him to draw strength directly from it.
one had to admit.
in this battle with cao lin, he had gained immensely.
with half the effort, he achieved twice the result. the skill that affects the whole situation with a single move was incredibly powerful.
it really made him feel like the protagonist, turning misfortune into fortune, and danger into safety.
"die!"
cao lin, using his hearing to locate his target, swung his blade down again.
at the moment the blade light fell.
du ge didn't retreat but instead used the giant wave stirred up by cao lin's blade to fly into the air, charging straight at cao lin.
wherever his foot landed, an ice block would form, preventing him from falling.
it was as if the ice blocks were building a floating bridge for him in the air.
at the same time.
the water around cao lin transformed into countless tiny tentacles, drilling into his mouth, nose, and ears, making it look like he was wrapped in water snakes.
sensing du ge's approach, cao lin stopped using his powerful river-splitting blade and flew towards du ge, clearly intending to engage in close combat.
at the moment they closed in on each other.
cao lin's figure suddenly flickered and disappeared from the air. when he reappeared, he was already behind du ge. the sudden teleportation even threw off the water snakes that had been entwining him.
cao lin's bloodshot eyes suddenly opened wide, a mocking smile curling at the corner of his mouth. he twisted his blade, swift as lightning, aiming for du ge's neck.
this was a strike that would surely hit.
on both sides of the yang river.
everyone held their breath.
was the battle about to be decided?
leng shi clearly had an unbeatable position in the water. if he held on, cao lin would retreat, and linyang city would be saved. why did he have to charge into the sky?
a sorcerer engaging in close combat with a grandmaster, was he seeking death?
if he wanted close combat, he should have dragged him into the water!
one strike, two halves.
du ge's head and body separated.
"master." luo shuang couldn't help but exclaim, but the next second, her eyes widened.
the du ge who had been split in two by cao lin suddenly appeared behind him, a long sword stabbing straight at cao lin's back.
what cao lin had struck was merely an afterimage.
cao lin swung his blade back to block.
unexpectedly.
zhang yizhi might not be from the minister's mansion either!
cao lin suddenly realized.
when his upper garment was torn away and leng shi's attacks shifted towards his pants, cao lin completely abandoned the idea of killing leng shi. he swung his blade at du ge's head and turned to flee.
if he didn't escape now, he would truly be stripped naked by leng shi, and as the god of war, he would become a laughingstock in the court, losing all face to lead troops again!
humiliated!
so humiliated!
why was there such a despicable sorcerer in the world, who didn't think of killing the enemy but only of humiliating and torturing his opponent...
bang!
an ice wall blocked cao lin's escape route.
shattered by cao lin's impact.
then, another ice wall appeared.
"no one can escape from me." du ge flashed in front of cao lin, his sword aimed straight at cao lin's face. "cao lin, today you either surrender or die in the most humiliating way on the yang river, helping me establish my formidable reputation..."
as du ge finished speaking.
the water floating in the air suddenly formed a giant water sphere, enveloping both of them.
inside the water sphere.
du ge's speed increased.
before cao lin could react, du ge was already in front of him, his long sword slashing across cao lin's body, leaving his remaining trousers in tatters, swept away by the water.
du ge had finally completed his mission of stripping him.
cao lin's eyes burned with fury, and he slashed at du ge's head with all his hatred, but all he saw was du ge's mocking smile.
he froze for a moment.
du ge's figure had already disappeared from his sight.
then, he felt a tug on his foot. du ge had grabbed one of his legs, pulling him down, while the water surrounding them formed a giant whirlpool, dragging him towards the river.
cao lin was terrified. if he couldn't defeat du ge in the sky, entering the yang river would mean being at his mercy.
cao lin gathered his true energy, repeatedly slashing at du ge's arm.
but each strike was precisely dodged by du ge, and after dodging, his leg would be grabbed again.
this cycle continued.
he was gradually pulled into the yang river by du ge...
at this moment.
cao lin's army finally reached the riverbank. the thirty thousand elite soldiers had expected to see their god of war, cao lin, holding leng shi's head, splitting the river with one strike, leading them to charge and kill the enemy. instead, they saw their general, bloodshot eyes, completely naked, being dragged into the river by leng shi.
for a moment.
all thirty thousand soldiers were stunned, silent as the grave.
"general cao, do you surrender?"
after pressing cao lin into the water, du ge had absolute control. no matter how strong cao lin was, he couldn't fight against the rushing river alone.
under du ge's suppression, the river water seemed like a giant hand, firmly gripping cao lin, sealing him beneath the surface.
the omnipresent water, even more powerful underwater, broke through cao lin's true energy defense, forcefully invading his body.
cao lin struggled desperately, glaring at du ge, but he couldn't speak underwater.
du ge looked at him with a smile: "general cao, you only need to nod or shake your head. if you don't surrender, i'll use this seven-orifice touch to send you to the surface, letting the tens of thousands of soldiers on both sides of the yang river forever remember your heroic figure. you can die without regrets..."
