The Next Of Phoenix
Chapter 75. Toxic Bomb

"KILL THEM ALL!!"

Xiao Xiangqing exclaimed loudly while slashing the head of the enemy before him. The great war began, Xiao Jiwang had not made a sound at all. The man's body and mind were one hundred percent focused on eliminating the enemy before him.

It had officially counted three days since the departure of the Xiao Wangfu troops to the battlefield, the condition of the two camps was getting heated up even more.

Amidst the rush of them fighting, suddenly the sound of cannons being released sounded. Xiao Xiangqing quickly searched for the whereabouts of the released bombs, when he saw the huge bombs drifting towards them, Xiao Xiangqing shouted back.

"TOXIC BOMB! BACK OFF! GET PROTECTION!!"

The entire Xiao Wangfu soldiers withdrew their attack, were pushed back and tried to seek shelter. As for Xiao Xiangqing, the man instead walked forward, his hands clasping tightly onto his sword, inflicting a deep scratch on his left palm as it grasped the sharp sword body. But Xiao Xiangqing did not care, he began to focus on gathering his inner energy to create a gigantic shield. Right, the man was trying to create a giant shield to protect the entire army.

SHAVE!!!

KRAKK!!!

Xiao Xiangqing continued to try to hold on. A hot wind started to sweep them, all of them trying to hold on to their respective positions in order not to break out of Xiangqing's shield.

"YINQING!" Xiao Jiwang exclaimed in panic when he saw the man blocking the bomb with his own inner strength.

Xiao Jiwang tried to get close, but the hot wind pressure was really hard to resist.

"YANGQING! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!"

"STOP XIANGQING! YOU COULD DIE!!"

Xiao Jiwang continued to shout, yet Xiao Xiangqing did not budge at all. The man remained focused on blocking the bomb.

As soon as the effect of the explosion subsided and the huge wind disappeared, Xiao Jiwang directly approached Xiao Xiangqing. When it was close, it was sudden that Xiao Xiangqing staggered backwards, lucky that Xiao Jiwang caught it.

"Xiangqing!"

Xiao Xiangqing coughed, there was a small black smoke coming out of his mouth when he coughed. The man then smiled faintly, then when he wanted to talk he coughed again and now spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Right ... what Jiejie said. To belittle .. to belittle the enemy is wrong. They dare ... because ... have had a plan that- UHUK! .. mature ...." Xiao Xiangqing tried to speak.

Xiao Jiwang who saw Xiao Xiangqing's blood thumping even more, the man was worried that Xiao Xiangqing would die in this battle.

"Remember your promise to Mingyui to return safely, Xiangqing. He won't forgive you if he-!!"

Uhuk!

"Damn you, I won't die, you son of a bitch," Xiao Xiangqing cut off, his consciousness appearing to be thinning.

Plaque!

Xiao Xiangqing suddenly slapped Xiao Jiwang's cheek. "Lead this war well, and .. I .. I will not die ...." Then slowly both of Xiao Xiangqing's eyes closed.

"Medical! Where's the medical division?!" Xiao Jiwang shouted, until before long three soldiers came closer to bring Xiao Xiangqing back from the battle area.

"Wine! There's another toxic bomb!" One of the other soldiers exclaimed, making Xiao Jiwang stare at the bomb that was a little more ready to be launched.

"Groom, there's no Xiao Wangye here anymore. Who will make the shield?"

"We're going to die. This is the end of all of us!"

"No ... no. I'm not ready to die!"

Xiao Jiwang clenched his sword grip, then turned around and exclaimed, "We can't allow any military higher-ups to sacrifice themselves anymore! Xiao Wangye's sacrifice just now, we must not waste it just like that! Remember, we will not die here today! We're gonna fight! Together! For the land of the land! Me, Xiao Jiwang! Crown Prince of the Eastern Empire! Will take command of Xiao Wangye!"

The entire army nodded steadily, they also gripped the sword tighter. After seeing the determination of the soldiers who were slowly returning, Xiao Jiwang turned his head back briefly towards the cannons and looked back at them again to say, "Unite our strength! Gather the power within you in one shaft! Hurry along!"

The entire army started kneeling on the ground, then they held each other's shoulders. The front row of the troops stood up to connect their strength to Xiao Jiwang who was at the very front.

A white light appeared, their entire strength began to flow and gather at one point. As soon as the toxic bomb was launched, the shield was ready to block. This time they really worked together, no one thought of themselves. Xiao Jiwang managed to prevent their fear.

The bomb hit their shields hard, Xiao Jiwang was a little surprised as it turned out that the pressure was overwhelming. The man tried to hold on, his chest burning.

"Nrush ...." Xiao Jiwang grimaced slightly, the veins on the man's forehead looked perfect. The hot air seemed to be burning Xiao Jiwang from within.

In the middle of this, suddenly one more bomb was launched. Xiao Jiwang and the others widened their eyes. Xiao Jiwang gritted his teeth furiously, then tried to stay focused. To be honest, blocking a single bomb is already a very high risk, and now they have to block two bombs at once. If these shields were not strong even though they had formed them together, so the chances of their victims falling were very few. There was only one person who would be destroyed, Xiao Jiwang, who became their axis and pedestal.

CRUST!

The shield slowly showed a rift, everyone was getting more panicked, only Xiao Jiwang who was seen remaining calm stood in front.

"Your majesty! Back off! Your body could be destroyed!" The troops began to shout at Xiao Jiwang, they were worried that the successor to the Eastern throne would fall on the battlefield. If that happens, the internal political conditions of the Empire are also problematic.

Xiao Jiwang did not listen to them, he was as indifferent as Xiao Xiangqing had been before.

The crack of the shield grew bigger, Xiao Jiwang began to close his eyes. Alright .. if he has to die and be destroyed right now, no problem.

"Cho Mingyui ... Mufei .. sorry," Xiao Jiwang's inner, fiery red light felt even closer to him.

But, amidst everyone's despair, suddenly someone flashed on top of the bomb and punched the bomb empty-handed.

BOOM UP!

CRUST!!

BUCKUMM!!!!

The bomb was smashed to pieces, the explosion was completed faster.

Xiao Jiwang and the others were surprised instead of playing. As soon as the bomb finished, Xiao Jiwang instantly fell to his knees on the ground and spat out a mouthful of blood. The entire inside of his body was burning, it was very painful.

Xiao Jiwang slowly raised his gaze, then saw Gu Sinjie, the former Great General of the Empire, standing before him.

"Rise up again, your honor. The war is not over. You're still capable, aren't you? Look around .... does it seem like you have a lot more power in than the new Xiao Wangye?" the man said, his lips smiling even though his sentence was nothing to describe sweetness.

Gu Sinjie extended his hand towards Xiao Jiwang, helping the man stand up.

"You here? Then ... What about the Emperor's security?" xiao Jiwang asked, worried about the security of the Capital City.

Gu Sinjie chuckled, then went back to standing straight in front of the enemy position and said, "My wife in charge now, she is still brave enough to slash a human head. Take it easy, Tianyao and Yui are also in the Capital City. Your beloved fiance is safe."

Xiao Jiwang frowned. Tianyao and Yui? Isn't that the couple that got out of the Capital? Yui, Xiao Jiwang knows the woman. Yang Xiao Jiwang knew, he used to be the elite personal bodyguard of the late Xiao Wangfei who had the blood of an Imperial descendant before. So ... have they come back and gathered?

Xiao Jiwang was touched thinly, he again gripped the hilt of his sword tightly. His eyes stared intently at the enemy, he did not care about the blood that was soiling his clothes now.

"What-" when Xiao Jiwang was about to ask something, suddenly from the back there was a cry.

"XIAO WANGYE DISAPPEARED!!!"

Xiao Jiwang and Gu Sinjie were surprised, the two men turned their heads quickly back.

"Dam. It seemed like they were about to take Xiao Wangye as a hostage like princess Xie," Gu Sinjie said, his eyes cooling.

Xiao Jiwang did not say anything, even though inside his head he had countless questions. Because, how could Xiao Xiangqing possibly just disappear?! Southeast Huan could even break through their defenses silently in the middle of this war?!

Seems ... Southeast Huan had planned everything very well. Xiao Jiwang should not underestimate them too far like Xiangqing, because the way of fighting Southeast Huan was really smooth like a big country.
