Crown Prince of the Empire, I quit!

Chapter 1193 Coming to the battlefield

The stench of burnt sulfur and the sweet smell of rotting blood lingered stubbornly between her mouth and nose, like a brand from hell. It was the pain of the brand on Liu Yueli's shoulder, a common source of pain that emanated from across the abyss.

Every time he inhaled this breath, it was like confirming the existence of the beast-shaped mark engraved into his bones. Despair, like a pool of icy water, slowly flooded his heart.

At the moment when consciousness was about to be completely swallowed by the cold and severe pain,

Boom, boom! ! !

A completely different, dull roar, like the beating of the earth's heart, rolled in from the canyon entrance, carrying a tremendous force that shook the entire glacial valley! It wasn't the cracking of the earth! It wasn't the collapse of a pile of corpses! It was the numbing roar of iron hooves trampling the earth! It was the clashing, grinding, and clashing of thousands of heavily armored bodies as they ran!

This sound! Like thunder tearing through the darkness!

Chang Baishan suddenly looked up! His bloodshot eyes were almost popping out of their sockets! His cloudy gaze pierced through the cracks in the corpses at the entrance of the cave, fixed firmly on the direction of the canyon entrance!

At the canyon entrance, the bleak, cold fog that permeated the air year-round was ripped apart by an invisible, raging hurricane filled with a fiery, murderous aura!

A massive, dark, dragon-patterned battle flag fluttered in the pale, rising sunlight! Like a sharp blade piercing the underworld, it pierced through the dense fog! The ferocious black dragon on the flag seemed to come alive, its scales and claws bulging, its eyes blazing with lightning, brimming with all-consuming majesty and fury!

Followed by!

Like a black steel torrent bursting through a dam! Countless cavalrymen, clad in heavy black armor and wearing ferocious visored helmets, surged into the narrow entrance of the Ice Ridge Valley like a legion of demons bursting from the furnace of hell, carrying a terrifying momentum that could crush everything! Their hooves crushed the frozen ground, and the friction of their armor sounded like thunder! The cold murderous aura instantly froze the stench of decay swirling from the valley floor!

The leader was a horse! His entire body was pitch black, save for the saddle, inlaid with dark golden dragon patterns! The man on horseback wore heavy black armor with coiled dragon patterns. His visor concealed only a pair of eyes as cold as the abyss of eternity, yet blazing with a blazing rage! In his hand was a massive, ancient-looking black iron sword with a blade nearly ten feet long. The blade pointed diagonally toward the sky, and even without moving, the imperial might that could sever mountains and rivers swept across the battlefield!

Emperor Daqian! Qin Ming!

"Roar--!!!"

No words were needed! Behind Qin Ming, a giant, bearded general (Meng Zhi, the commander of the Imperial Guards) who stood like an iron tower let out a roar that shook the heavens! The two giant wheel axes in his hands suddenly crossed and collided!

“Zheng——!!!”

The sharp sound of metal clashing was like the horn of attack!

"put--!!!"

Countless Black Armored Cavalrymen, already drawn and ready to fire, simultaneously released their bowstrings! Rockets, dense as locusts, tore through the air with a shrill shriek, like a torrential downpour of fire, instantly covering the piles of corpses, insect swarms, and the remaining Shadow Guards who were still holding out at the canyon entrance!

boom! boom! boom!

The specially crafted incendiary oil arrows exploded violently upon impact! Orange-red flames mixed with acrid black smoke shot skyward! A black tide of rot-armored insects crackled amidst the blaze, instantly transforming into a writhing sea of ​​fire! The shadow guard's screams were consumed by the flames!

"Break through!" Qin Ming's cold voice came through the visor. It was not loud, but it was like the friction between metal and iron, clearly overwhelming all the noise on the battlefield!

“Here!!!”

A thunderous response! The torrent of black armor continued unabated! The vanguard, like red-hot iron spikes, under the cover of rockets, fiercely pierced the chaotic Zerg swarm and Shadow Guard lines! The terrifying impact of the heavy cavalry's charge instantly crushed all obstacles into dust! The cold light of scimitars and spears flashed in the flames, and every swing brought up a cloud of blood and broken limbs!

"Your Majesty! General Chang and Lord Liu..." Meng Zhi rode his horse closely beside Qin Ming, swinging his giant axe to chop down a shadow guard who was rushing towards him, his voice filled with anxiety.

Qin Ming's cold gaze was like a physical probe, instantly sweeping across the entire hellish battlefield at the bottom of the valley!

His gaze passed over the burning corpse on the edge of the cliff, and the debris floating on the surface of the deep pool. Finally, as if pulled by an invisible thread, it suddenly stopped at the edge of the cold pool below, at the narrow crevice entrance that was half-blocked by the charred corpse!

"over there!"

Qin Ming's voice was resolute! He pointed the huge black iron sword in his hand downwards! "Protective Battalion! Save them!"

"Understood!" A team of the best-equipped black-armored guards, carrying special climbing equipment, separated from the charging torrent like an arrow. Ignoring the cold and chaos of the deep pool below, they used grappling hooks and spiked boots to quickly slide down the steep and slippery rock wall towards the stone cave where Changbai Mountain was located, just like agile monkeys!

at the same time!

Deep in the cellar! The roar of flames and the stench of sulfur almost completely burned away Liu Yueli's remaining consciousness.

The excruciating pain from the double branding on her shoulders felt like an endless torture, and every heartbeat felt like a heavy hammer hitting her red-hot spine. Just as she was about to be completely swallowed by darkness—

boom! ! !

The cellar's ceiling, which had long been crumbling and charred by the flames, collapsed with a terrifying tremor that was far greater than the previous one, like a landslide!

It wasn't the burning of flames! It was the crushing of pure power!

Huge beams and rubble, blazing with flames, fell like a divine punishment! But the expected shattering to pieces did not come!

At the moment of the collapse, several swift, eagle-like black figures descended from ropes above the shattered cave entrance like ghosts! Clad in specially crafted fireproof asbestos and refined steel armor, they ignored the raging flames and falling debris. Their steel claws precisely snagged the burning wreckage, forcibly creating a small, temporarily safe triangular space above Liu Yueli!

"Master Liu!"

Leading the group was a captain of the personal guards with a scar on his face but eyes as sharp as an eagle.

The leader of Qin Ming's personal guards, Ying Qi.

He growled, and with a flash of cold light in his hand, a short blade as thin as a cicada's wing accurately cut off the black arrow shaft that pierced Liu Yueli's calf!

At the same time, another guard, regardless of the burning flames, suddenly wrapped her charred body with a special fireproof blanket and forcibly dragged her out of the scorching ashes!

"Ugh..." Liu Yueli let out a faint hiss from her throat. The sharp pain instantly brought her back to consciousness! In her blurry vision, she saw the ferocious dragon pattern on the black armor! It was the mark of the emperor's personal guards!

Your Majesty...is here?

Hope is like a faint spark, struggling and beating among the dying ashes.

Ice Valley Cave.

The guards descended like divine soldiers! Sharp claws tore through the charred corpses blocking the cave entrance! Icy water poured in! Recklessly, the two guards plunged into the narrow crevice, the icy water instantly soaking through their heavy armor!

"General Chang!" The captain of the personal guards saw Chang Baishan curled up in the bloody ice, dying!
