The voice echoed through the valley, spreading far and wide.

Not only did it reach every corner of Yutang Pass, but it also traveled to Huangfu Xing’s military camp outside the city.

The rain of arrows in Yutang Pass halted in response.

Torches on the city walls lit up one by one, and numerous soldiers formed neat formations, holding sharp blades and standing ready. Archers drew their bows, aiming at Du Ge and his companions on the city tower.

Tong San and the others guarded Du Ge closely. Wu Chang pulled out the arrows embedded in his body one by one, each extraction bringing out a spray of blood and flesh, leaving the soldiers on the city wall dumbfounded.

“Fourth Princess?”

A female general in her early twenties emerged from the end of the city wall. She was clad in armor, holding a long spear, walking with the stride of a dragon and the steps of a tiger, exuding a masculine aura.

“General Huangfu, I am Luo Shuang.” Luo Shuang looked down at Huangfu Yue and said, “I heard that General Huangfu supports the idea of women taking charge and has defected from the Chongming Kingdom. Luo Shuang is deeply grateful and cannot bear to see the general in danger, so I have come to assist you.”

“How can you prove you are the Fourth Princess?”

Huangfu Yue’s gaze swept towards Du Ge beside Luo Shuang, her eyes full of caution.

Du Ge reached into his robe, took out Luo Shuang’s jade pendant, and tossed it over.

Huangfu Yue caught it, glanced at it briefly, then frowned and waved her hand, “Who dares to impersonate the Fourth Princess? Soldiers, release the arrows.”

As soon as she finished speaking.

The archers, who had been ready for action, released their bowstrings.

In an instant.

Arrows flew like locusts.

All aimed at Du Ge and his companions.

Tong San and the others turned pale, each using their weapons to deflect the arrows.

Wu Chang laughed heartily, jumped onto the city wall with his sword, and charged at Huangfu Yue, “I knew you had ill intentions. Let Grandpa Wu capture you and then seek merit from the princess.”

After a round of arrows, Tong San and the others also jumped onto the city wall, engaging in a fierce battle with Huangfu Yue’s soldiers.

“Huangfu Yue, as a woman, you use the princess’s ideals as bait to frame her. Aren’t you afraid that this will break the hearts of women across the world?” Du Ge didn’t move, standing by Luo Shuang’s side, looking at Huangfu Yue and speaking loudly, “Do you know that if the Fourth Princess dies at your hands, women everywhere will lose their chance to rise?

You rely on having a good father to sit in the general’s position, yet you ignore the plight of oppressed women. One day, when true gender equality is achieved, you will be nailed to the pillar of shame…”

“Huangfu Yue, I thought I had found a kindred spirit, but I didn’t expect you to become a man’s lackey.” Luo Shuang looked at Huangfu Yue with pity and said loudly, “I am ashamed of you.”

Huangfu Yue looked at Du Ge and Luo Shuang, her gaze cold, as if she were looking at two dead people.

Du Ge watched Tong San and the others engaged in battle, feeling puzzled.

He had a skill that could affect the whole situation with a single move.

Logically, he had already stirred the trend, and recruiting Huangfu Yue should have been twice as effective with half the effort. But Huangfu Yue betrayed the trend, so her actions should have been twice as hard with half the results.

The advantage should have been four times in their favor.

But why wasn’t the skill’s power showing at all?

He couldn’t figure out what went wrong!

Moreover, the other side had set up such a grand scene, clearly aiming to deal with him. But how could these ordinary soldiers possibly keep him here?

Huangfu Yue’s cultivation level wasn’t even as high as Yu Hongsheng’s!

Could she be relying on Huangfu Xing outside the city? But their camp was at least five miles from the city gate, they couldn’t possibly arrive in time!

He had even arranged for top-tier assassins to kill Huangfu Xing…

…

Unable to figure it out.

Du Ge simply stopped thinking about it.

He looked at Huangfu Yue, smiled slightly, and waved his hand.

The water in the moat surged into the sky, transforming into a water tornado that rushed towards her.

Soldiers along the way were knocked aside by the water tornado.

Huangfu Yue looked at the approaching water tornado and sneered. She swung her spear, and the water tornado dispersed, turning into a puddle of water.

Huangfu Yue’s astonished expression froze on her face. She was puzzled; her spear had aimed to disrupt the water tornado’s structure.

But just now, her spear hadn’t even touched the water tornado, and it had dispersed on its own.

What was going on?

Was the opponent’s skill lacking?

Before she could figure it out, more water tornadoes surged from the moat, all pouring onto the city wall.

The water came quickly and in large quantities, and the drainage channels on the wall couldn’t handle the flow.

In a short time.

The city wall was covered in half a foot of water.

Huangfu Yue stood in the water, increasingly puzzled. Why was the opponent bringing so much water up here?

She knew Du Ge could turn water into ice, indicating he was a sorcerer.

But even the top sorcerers couldn’t instantly freeze half a foot of water!

Even if he had the ability to freeze water, a foot-thick layer of ice could be shattered with a bit of true energy, causing no harm…

But then, her expression suddenly changed.

Her legs tightened involuntarily, and she leaped onto the wall, swinging her spear towards Du Ge on the tower, “Shameless scoundrel, I’ll kill you…”

Her guards followed her, their skills even higher than hers, forming a combined attack that blocked all of Du Ge’s escape routes.

But just as they jumped halfway.

Ah~! Ah~! Ah!

Several short screams.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

Several people lost their true energy and fell onto the city wall, into the water.

Some instinctively covered their crotches.

Huangfu Yue shivered, standing up.

But then, the water on the wall, like water snakes, poured into her nose, eyes, mouth, and ears…

Seeping into every crevice.

Huangfu Yue was horrified, quickly using true energy to expel the water.

But in that brief moment, her body felt as if it had been washed by Du Ge.

She trembled all over, her face turning red with anger, glaring at Du Ge.

She had seen water sorcerers before.

But she had never encountered a sorcerer who used water magic so filthily.

That guy’s control over water was too precise…

Definitely at the level of a high-ranking sorcerer.

The city wall was covered in water.

The water snakes she had expelled with true energy surged back, forcing her to form a protective shield with true energy to block them.

But her cultivation level was not even as high as Yu Hongsheng’s, so how could she maintain a full-body defense for long? After a moment, she felt her strength waning.

Finally.

She couldn’t hold it anymore, using all her strength to expel the water snakes, “Mr. Liu, if you don’t act now, when will you?”

As soon as she finished speaking.

Dozens of shadows shot from all directions of the city wall, moving like ghosts, much faster than Tong San and the others.

Du Ge’s expression turned serious. Finally, they were here. He was about to manipulate the water on the wall to attack them.

But the next scene froze his actions.

Those ghost-like figures knocked down Huangfu Yue’s soldiers one by one, and the fastest one had already reached Huangfu Yue, grabbing her by the neck.

Huangfu Yue’s guards were taken down by the other shadows.

Huangfu Yue stared in shock, “Mr. Liu, you…”

“Forgive me, General Huangfu, I am actually a spy from the Qingwu Kingdom.” The man called Mr. Liu smiled slightly, looking up at Du Ge and Luo Shuang on the tower, “Fourth Princess, Mr. He, I apologize for the delay in rescuing you.”

Luo Shuang was confused, “Who are you?”

“Reporting to the princess, I am Liu Yi’an. Twenty years ago, I infiltrated the Chongming Kingdom under the emperor’s orders, waiting for an opportunity to overthrow the royal family.” Liu Yi’an said loudly, “Today, I learned that the prime minister and Huangfu Xing’s father and daughter plotted to harm the princess, so I came to rescue you.”

Such a familiar excuse!

Could it be that the emperor had already infiltrated the Chongming Kingdom thoroughly?

Then is Du Ge really the Heavenly Demon?

Luo Shuang glanced at Liu Yi’an below, then turned to Du Ge, whispering, “Master, are they the hidden agents you mentioned?”

“Most likely.” Du Ge looked at Liu Yi’an below and suddenly smiled.

Interesting, so the effect of the skill was here.

But who are these people?

Dragon Fang’s men?

Or Alien Star warriors?

Anyway, he would never believe that these people were actually spies from the Qingwu Kingdom.

Because the name He Xu was entirely made up by him.

The only ones who knew this name were Dragon Fang’s people and a few wealthy individuals he had recruited…

And these people openly called him Mr. He, either unaware that the name was fabricated or had ulterior motives.
