Fang Yue seemed unusually calm in the face of the threat from the leader of the men in black.

He stood alone at the intersection, with a long sword in his hand, standing like a mountain.

The leader of the men in black could not help but feel a little confused when he saw this.

Although they were numerous, Fang Yue's calmness made him feel a little uneasy.

However, he did not retreat, but ordered his men to continue the attack.

However, just when the two sides were about to fight, Fang Yue suddenly flashed, bypassed the leader of the men in black at an elusive speed, and rushed directly behind him.

This move shocked the leader of the men in black, he did not expect Fang Yue's speed to be so fast.

Fang Yue's figure was like the wind, and he came behind the leader of the men in black in an instant.

The long sword in his hand passed like a flash of lightning, and with a "swish", the leader of the men in black had a long slit on his clothes.

The leader of the men in black was horrified, he knew he had met a master.

He turned around to deal with Fang Yue's attack, but it was too late.

Fang Yue's long sword had been swung out again, pointing directly at his throat.

The leader of the men in black felt a chill in his heart, and he knew that he could no longer dodge this sword.

However, just when he was about to give up resistance, Fang Yue suddenly stopped his sword, and the long sword instantly pierced the man's throat.

The leader of the men in black widened his eyes and fell down with his eyes wide open.

But Fang Yue had no extra time to check his situation, because at this moment, he was surrounded by thousands of cavalry led by Zhao Xin and Lord Shen.

"I didn't expect that a big fish would come. The court actually sent a great master of shape-changing cultivation. If you are killed, I'm afraid the court will also feel pain!" Zhao Xin shouted loudly, and his voice echoed throughout the open space.

Fang Yue did not show any panic. He looked at the cavalry in front of him calmly, as if all this was within his expectations.

"Haha, do you think you can keep me?" Fang Yue sneered.

Zhao Xin frowned. He didn't expect Fang Yue to be so calm in this situation.

However, he didn't back down.

"Really? What if I'm included?"

At this time, a sound mixed with metal friction sounded, and then a strong man wrapped in light armor and holding a snake spear walked out of the cavalry.

His appearance made the already tense atmosphere even more solemn.

Fang Yue looked at the strong man, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.

He could feel that the aura of this strong man was stronger than the opponents he had encountered before.

"Who are you?" Fang Yue asked coldly.

"I am General Po Lu under King Wucheng, my surname is Shen!" The strong man answered loudly, his voice was like thunder, making people's ears buzz.

As soon as General Shen finished speaking, the whole open space seemed to fall into silence.

The light armor on his body shone with a dazzling light in the sun, as if a god of war had descended to the earth.

The Zhangba Snake Spear was tightly held in his hand, revealing a fierce murderous aura that made people shudder.

Fang Yue stared at General Shen, and a trace of solemnity flashed in his eyes.

This man seemed to be able to unite with these thousands of cavalrymen, he must be a master of military strategy!

That was a kind of iron-blooded spirit that had been honed through countless life-and-death battles, which made people daunted.

General Shen walked towards Fang Yue step by step, and each step seemed to be as heavy as a thousand pounds, making the ground tremble.

The cavalrymen behind him followed closely, like a well-trained army, neat and uniform, and full of momentum.

"Fang Yue, you can't fly today!" General Shen shouted, and the Zhangba Snake Spear in his hand instantly cut through the air and stabbed towards Fang Yue fiercely.

Fang Yue flashed and cleverly avoided General Shen's attack.

The long sword in his hand was also swung out without showing weakness, colliding with General Shen's Zhangba Snake Spear, making a crisp metal collision sound.

The two people's figures intertwined, and a fierce battle broke out in an instant.

General Shen's 10-foot snake spear danced like the wind, and every strike was powerful and heavy, as if to put Fang Yue to death.

Fang Yue, with his agile body and superb swordsmanship, cleverly responded to General Shen's attack.

His long sword was like a spirit snake, sometimes lingering, sometimes like thunder, going straight to General Shen's vitals.

However, General Shen was not an ordinary person. The light armor on his body seemed to have magical power. Whenever Fang Yue's long sword was about to touch his body, there would always be an invisible force to bounce it away.

And his 10-foot snake spear was like a living giant snake, sometimes circling and dancing, and sometimes piercing Fang Yue's flaws like lightning.

The two fought more and more bravely, and General Shen and the thousands of cavalry behind him seemed to be integrated into one. Their breath, movements and even will were completely synchronized, forming an irresistible and magnificent momentum.

Fang Yue was in the middle of it, like a lone boat in a storm, and could be swallowed by this powerful force at any time.

However, Fang Yue did not retreat.

He held the long sword tightly, his eyes were firm and indifferent, and he stood like an iceberg that had been there for thousands of years.

His figure was swaying in the wind and rain, but his sword intent was like a giant dragon tumbling and dancing in the void, colliding and interweaving with the attacks of General Shen and the cavalry.

Every collision between the sword and the spear seemed to be a contest between two forces, making the surrounding air tremble.

Fang Yue's long sword shone with dazzling light in the sun, as if lightning streaked through the dark sky, going straight to General Shen's vital points.

General Shen was not to be outdone. He wielded his Zhangba Snake Spear, completely integrating his own strength with the strength of the cavalrymen, forming an indestructible torrent.

His attack came like a storm, making it impossible for Fang Yue to dodge.

However, just as the two sides were fighting fiercely, a clear flute sounded suddenly.

This flute sound was melodious and graceful, as if a clear spring was flowing in the valley, which refreshed people's hearts.

As the flute sounded, the originally tense atmosphere miraculously eased.

General Shen and the cavalrymen seemed to be affected by some mysterious power. Their attacks became slow and weak, as if they were bound by an invisible force.

Fang Yue took this opportunity to launch a fierce attack. His long sword streaked through the void like a flash of lightning and hit the opponent's armor fiercely.

With a loud "clang", General Shen's armor of light was hit by Fang Yue's sword, making a deafening metal collision sound.

General Shen felt a huge force coming from the sword, which made him step back a few steps involuntarily.

At the same time, the cavalrymen behind him were also affected, and their offensive collapsed instantly, and they could no longer maintain the previous uniformity.

The situation on the entire battlefield was reversed in an instant. Fang Yue alone resisted thousands of troops and forced General Shen and thousands of cavalrymen to retreat step by step.

Zhao Xin and Lord Shen were horrified when they saw this.

They didn't expect Fang Yue's strength to be so strong that even a master like General Shen couldn't resist his attack.

At this moment, they had no chance of winning and could only order a retreat helplessly.

As the order was issued, the cavalrymen turned their horses around and galloped in the direction they came from.

General Shen also took a deep breath, glared at Fang Yue, and then turned and left.

His eyes were full of unwillingness and anger, but he was helpless.

Fang Yue looked at the backs of General Shen and the cavalrymen leaving, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

He knew that although he won the battle, he had also paid a heavy price.

There was little vitality left in his body, and he was also injured. If he continued to fight, Fang Yue would have to pay a price to keep all these people.

Fortunately, the other side retreated.

Fang Yue did not leave the battlefield immediately, but sat cross-legged and began to regulate his breathing and heal his wounds.

He knew that although it seemed safe at the moment, the crisis was not completely resolved.

Although the leader of the black-clothed man was dead, the forces behind him were still there. General Shen and the cavalrymen had only retreated temporarily and could come back at any time.

He closed his eyes, sank his mind into his body, and felt the flow of vitality.

The consumption in the battle was huge, and his vitality was almost gone, and he had to recover as soon as possible.

The air around him was filled with a faint smell of blood, as if reminding him that he had just experienced a life-and-death fight.

However, Fang Yue seemed to be out of the matter, his mind completely immersed in cultivation.

As time passed, Fang Yue's breathing gradually became steady and deep.

In his body, the vitality slowly flowed through the meridians, nourishing every corner of the body.

The injuries on his body gradually healed under the nourishment of the vitality, and the pain gradually disappeared.

After an unknown period of time, Fang Yue slowly opened his eyes, and a gleam of brilliance flashed in his eyes.

"I don't know which friend is helping me, please show up."

After Fang Yue's words fell, there seemed to be a slight fluctuation in the air around him, as if something was approaching quietly.

Fang Yue's heart tightened slightly, but his face remained calm, and his eyes were firmly fixed on the front.

A moment later, a figure slowly walked out of the woods next to him.

The man was dressed in green, with a beautiful face, holding a green bamboo flute in his hand, and it was this bamboo flute that just made the clear and melodious sound.

The man in green walked up to Fang Yue, smiled slightly, and said, "Brother Fang, how are you?"

Fang Yue looked at the man in green in front of him, and a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes.

He didn't know this person, but the other party seemed to know him quite well.

However, Fang Yue did not show panic because of this. He calmly replied: "What do you mean? We don't seem to know each other."

The man in green smiled and said, "Brother Fang, don't be nervous. I have no ill intentions. To be honest, I am an ordinary musician who travels around. When I passed by this place, I happened to see Brother Fang in danger, so I helped him."

Musician?

Fang Yue didn't believe it. If he was just an ordinary musician, how could he have such unpredictable sound skills.

And from the look of this person, he seemed to know him, but he didn't know this person!

Although Fang Yue was full of doubts, he did not show it on his face. He bowed his hands and thanked him: "Thank you for your help, Fang is very grateful. May I know your name?"

No matter who this person is, the sound of the flute just now really helped him a lot, and this gratitude is sincere.

The man in green waved his hand and said calmly: "Brother Fang, the name is just a code name, not worth mentioning. As for the feeling of helping, it is even a piece of cake. People of our generation walk in the world, and we should draw our swords to help when we see injustice on the road."

His words revealed a kind of detached and free and easy, as if the worldly fame and fortune were just passing clouds to him.

After hearing this, Fang Yue couldn't help but have some respect for the man in green.

He could feel that although the man in green looked young, his words and deeds revealed the demeanor of a master.

"Since you don't want to reveal your name, Fang will not force it. But I will remember your kindness today. If I have the chance in the future, I will repay you with gratitude." Fang Yue said solemnly.

The man in green smiled and said, "Brother Fang, you are too kind. I helped you today, not for your repayment. If you really want to, please come to Shanyang Prefecture City in a month to talk."

Fang Yue's heart trembled when he heard the man in green mention Shanyang Prefecture City. As the old nest of King Wucheng, it must be heavily guarded and a place like a dragon's den and a tiger's lair.

Is this man a subordinate of King Wucheng and a member of the rebels?

Thinking of this, Fang Yue became more and more confused. If so, why did this man help him?

Although Fang Yue was full of doubts, he did not show it on his face.

He knew that people in the martial arts world acted in secret, and sometimes even if they helped, they might not reveal their true purpose.

So, he nodded and said, "Shanyang Prefecture? That's unfortunate. I have something important to do, so I may not have time to go."

The man in green heard this, and a strange color flashed in his eyes, but he did not force it. He just smiled and said, "In that case, it's a pity. There is an opportunity in Shanyang Prefecture, which is related to the Dragon Pill. If Brother Fang doesn't go, then I will lose a competitor."

The Dragon Pill?

Fang Yue's heart moved. He naturally knew the preciousness of the Dragon Pill.

This pill is a sacred object in martial arts practice. After taking it, it can cleanse the marrow and bones, improve the qualifications, and even make people break through the bottleneck directly and reach a higher realm.

Such an opportunity is an irresistible temptation for any martial artist.

However, Fang Yue also knew that such an opportunity must be accompanied by huge risks.

Shanyang Prefecture is the old nest of King Wucheng. There must be many masters and a place like a dragon's den and a tiger's lair.

Wanting to get the Dragon Pill from there is like trying to pull chestnuts out of the fire. If you are not careful, you will die.

But even so, Fang Yue did not directly reject the proposal of the man in green.

He knew that people in the martial arts world were fickle. Sometimes, even things that seemed impossible might become possible because of some accidents.

So, he smiled and said, "Oh? Dragon Pill? That's worth a run. However, I have something important to do, so I may not be able to go to Shanyang Prefecture immediately. If we are destined, maybe we can meet there."
