I am the villain in the book

“Shh!”

The sword energy was like a white blade, its silver light piercingly cold.

When that unremarkable sword light pierced the man's chest, it was less than half a zhang away from the golden-armored general.

At this distance, the latter had no time to dodge or block; before he could even react, the sword energy had already shot towards his eyes.

The 'Two-Star Falling Sky Sword', coupled with an unexpected sneak attack.

If it were anyone else, they would have been cut in two in the next second.

However, the golden-armored general was not an ordinary person after all.

“Buzz!!!”

A violent and high-frequency vibration suddenly sounded, and just before the silver sword energy was about to strike his head, a golden ancient bell phantom suddenly appeared around him.

Complex inscriptions flickered with a gilded light, and the huge bell body enveloped the golden-armored general completely, leaving no gaps.

As a result, the sword energy that should have directly taken the latter's life could only slam fiercely against the bell wall.

“Boom!!!!!”

The loud noise was like a mountain collapsing, and the surrounding space seemed to shrink for a moment before exploding in mid-air.

Gusts of wind carried sand and stones, and countless soldiers were knocked to the ground by this force, unable to get up for a long time under the intense wind pressure.

When the smoke cleared, the sword energy containing enormous power had dissipated, but the ancient bell phantom still stood firm.

“Interesting.”

Squinting at the golden giant bell and the pale-faced golden-armored general within, Wei Changtian's expression did not change much.

To be able to remain motionless after colliding with his sword, this thing must not be the golden-armored general's martial skill or divine power, but a life-saving tool.

And if that's the case, then it must have limitations...

After killing Ning Yongnian and obtaining several life-saving treasures, Wei Changtian now has a general understanding of various life-saving tools.

To put it bluntly, these things all contain strange and great power, but their specific effects are different.

Some can only block one attack.

Some can maintain an 'invincible' state for a short period.

Some can 'absorb' part of the power from the attack to replenish their own internal energy.

Anyway, some are strong and some are weak.

And the most useful and worthy of the name 'life-saving' is undoubtedly the Pure Jade Pendant with the 'random teleportation' function.

After all, in most cases, if an opponent has the ability to kill you once, they have the ability to kill you a second time.

In this way, even if you block the first attack that is enough to kill you, your situation will not change, and you will still die sooner or later.

Just like the golden-armored general now.

Although he is very safe hiding in the ancient bell phantom, anyone can see that the golden light of the giant bell is rapidly dissipating at a speed visible to the naked eye.

At this rate, this 'shield' will completely disappear after at most twenty or thirty breaths, which also means that he will no longer be 'invincible'.

In short.

Whether he wants to fight or escape, time is extremely precious to him, and he must make a decision immediately.

But the golden-armored general stood still in place, contrary to his usual behavior, his expression alternating between green and white.

Obviously, he was not stupid or stunned.

The reason why he didn't move was because he couldn't move.

“So that's how it is.”

“After activating it, you can't move, huh?”

Wei Changtian curled his lips and shifted his gaze away from the golden-armored general.

Since the 'Two-Star Falling Sky Sword' can't do anything to this defense, then he is too lazy to try again.

Anyway, judging from this, the duration will be over soon, so he will just wait.

However...

Looking at the dozen or so third-rank deputy generals around him who were in a dilemma, Wei Changtian slightly raised the tip of his Dragon Spring Sword.

Waiting is also waiting, so he might as well take advantage of this time to clean up these trash fish first.

“Clang!”

The sound of the sword vibrating was like the neighing of a horse.

Gale winds raged, and in the next moment, thirteen long swords floated around Wei Changtian, each pointing at a panicked figure.

Like turbulent waves crashing against rocks, stirring up the clear and tinkling sound of shattered jade.

Like the flowing sound of an ancient zither, sometimes clear and sometimes melodious.

Unlike ordinary sword techniques, where the greater the power, the greater the momentum, the word 'Falling' in the Falling Sky Sword is not only a description of its sword move phenomena, but also the most unique characteristic of this sword technique.

From the first stance to the thirty-fifth stance.

From the Entry Realm to the Great Perfection.

With the improvement of sword moves, realm, and power, the visual effect of each move of the Falling Sky Sword is constantly weakening.

Just like the sword just now, if the momentum of the sword energy had not been restrained to the extreme, it would have been impossible for the golden-armored general to ignore it.

Therefore, in contrast to the gorgeous and shocking scene when Wei Changtian was massacring in the military camp just now, at this moment, these thirteen long swords floating in mid-air are only covered with a faint silver light, making it even difficult to distinguish whether it is sword light or moonlight.

However, the killing intent that has been compressed to the extreme makes everyone shiver in their hearts.

“Tap.”

The sound of footsteps was very light, and the thirteen third-rank deputy generals unexpectedly took half a step back in unison, their expressions more struggling than the last.

As just said, they are now completely caught in a dilemma.

On the one hand, facing Wei Changtian, who is obviously not an ordinary second-rank martial artist, they have no confidence to fight him.

Just that sword just now, I am afraid that even a peak second-rank person may not be able to take it, so how can they be enemies?

Yes, this time Wei Changtian swung thirteen swords at once, and the power must be much weaker.

But even so, can they block it?

I am afraid that they will only end up with a shattered soul.

Thinking this way, turning around and running away now is undoubtedly the most correct choice.

But on the other hand, if they really escape...

Their gazes fell on the golden-armored general who was still 'trapped' in the ancient bell phantom, and the eyes of the thirteen people were extremely difficult.

Everyone is very clear that if they escape now, then the former will undoubtedly die.

You must know that just a few days ago, the previous commander was just assassinated by Qin Zhengqiu in the camp.

However, Qin Zhengqiu is at least a recognized quasi-first-rank expert, and it was also an assassination, so it can barely be justified.

But what about this time?

A mysterious person who has just broken through the second rank swaggered into his own military camp alone, and then killed the newly appointed commander in front of everyone?

If this kind of thing really happens, then the faces of the two countries of Qian and Hui will not only be completely lost, but even this battle will not need to be fought.

After all, when the commander of an army can be killed in this way, which soldier will believe that such an army can win?

“...”

The moonlight was bleak, and the cold wind was bleak.

At this moment, thirteen third-rank deputy generals, plus the second-rank expert in the distance who was chased by Wei Changtian for a long time and finally escaped, a total of fourteen people clenched the weapons in their hands.

Their breathing was extremely rapid, their expressions were extremely fearful, but they never took half a step back, and even faintly surrounded Wei Changtian.

Obviously, they have made a decision.

Since they have joined the army, the interests and dignity of the country should be above personal life and death!

Even if they die in battle, they must never escape!

“Boom!”

“Boom!!”

“Boom! Boom! Boom!”

The momentum of thirteen third-rank martial artists erupted one after another, soaring into the sky amidst the vast flying sand and stones, surrounding Wei Changtian in the center.

They stood upright, their eyes resolute.

Everyone did not hold back, and had already prepared to be buried here.

However, at this moment, just before Wei Changtian was about to make a move, an angry roar resounded through the battlefield.

“Run away!!”

“Don't worry about me!!”

“Everyone, run for your lives!!!”
