Xia Manor
While Xia Tian and the others were busy on the battlefield, five men dressed in black snuck into the Xia Manor, trying to find the people who had remained in the manor.
'Hey brothers, they're in the area over there.' One of the men whispered as he pointed towards the garden.
The other four men turned and nodded at him, then they hurried into the garden very slowly. But when they arrived at the garden, five women were waiting for them as they sat leisurely enjoying tea in their cups. They were Chen Xue, Liu Ying, Chen Shiyi, Leng Youxin, and Fu Jie.
"It turns out that Tian's guess was right, Ying'er." Chen Xue said with a chuckle, as she looked at the five people.
Liu Ying nodded with a smile. "En, it seems that Lou Chengsu still hasn't given up on killing Tian."
'Luo Chengsu? Why does she think that we are his people?' The five people in black were wondering in their hearts.
"You are wrong, Ying'er. I don't think they are Luo Chengsu's people." Leng Youxin said.
Liu Ying was taken aback by her mother in law's words. "Eh? If they are not Luo Chengsu's people, then who are they?"
'Tsk, these people really look down on us, brothers. We'd better kill them right now.' The other four men in black nodded in agreement, they then moved to attack Liu Ying and the others.
However, before the people in black made a move, Chen Xue and a few others had already moved behind them, and they directly kicked the back of the five people in black.
"Guah!" The five of them were flown forward, and the next second Fu Jie was already in front of them, and she directly smashed them to the ground. "Guah!"
Since Fu Jie's cultivation was far above them, she could beat them to a pulp very easily, as she also broke their arms and legs.
"Argh!" The five people groaned in pain as Fu Jie did that to them.
Quickly, Leng Youxin moved in front of them, and stuffed their mouths with a thick cloth, she purposely did that so they wouldn't commit suicide by biting their tongues.
Chen Xue along with the others walked over to them, as she said. "We should tie them up first, Mother. People like them won't confess if we interrogate them, so we should wait for Tian, and let him do it."
"Alright." Leng Youxin nodded in agreement, then she ordered several guards to tie them up. "Sigh, what about the war? Have they faced Hong Chen yet?"
"You don't have to worry about them, Mother." Liu Ying said as she embraced Leng Youxin. "Tian already told me that they have killed many Hong Chen soldiers, they are currently waiting for him and his main army to arrive."
Leng Youxin nodded to her. "I hope this war ends quickly, and they all return home safely."

Battlefield (Few Hours Later)
Hong Chen and his main army finally arrived at the actual battlefield. Hong Chen, Hong Li, and their five cultivator generals stood at the forefront, as they stared fiercely at the Zhu Kingdom's troops.
Before long Zhu Yuhe, Zhou Xuan, and Xiang Yin landed in front of them, and they stared at Hong Chen and the others in a relaxed manner. As for Mu Ruxue and He Shiyun, they were flying higher above them, and with Alice's help, Hong Chen couldn't sense their presence.
'Xiang Yin? She has siding with Zhu Yuhe?' Hong Chen raised his eyebrows, he then asked in a condescending tone. "So what's your decision, Zhu Yuhe? Are you ready to become my concubine? Or would you rather I destroy your Zhu Kingdom first?"
'You don't have to think about Hong Li and the five generals, Yuhe.' Zhou Xuan sent a voice transmission to Zhu Yuhe.
Xiang Yin then added. 'Leave Hong Li and the five generals to us, Yuhe.'
Zhu Yuhe nodded to them, and shouted to Hong Chen, as she released her aura completely. "You can keep dreaming, Hong Chen! I will never be your concubine! If you are a man then fight me one on one."
Hong Chen and the other six people's eyes widened in shock as soon as they sensed Zhu Yuhe's cultivation which had already reached the 1st Stage Ancestor Origin Realm, and Hong Chen inwardly muttered in disbelief. 'Impossible! A month ago she was still at the 7th Stage Heaven Origin Realm, but now her cultivation is on par with mine.'
"Do you dare to fight with me or not?" Zhu Yuhe said as she looked at Hong Chen with a serious expression.
Hearing Zhu Yuhe's question, Hong Chen woke up from his shock, and replied with a smugly smile. "Why not?"
Hong Chen then turned to Hong Li and his generals, and said. "You guys don't have to interfere with our fight, and your job is to kill that two women. Do you understand?"
"Yes." they replied in unison, as they themselves started to attack Zhou Xuan and Xiang Yin.
Zhou Xuan and Xiang Yin also moved to face them, although Hong Li and the five generals were strong, they were still able to face them at once.
Zhu Yuhe immediately ordered Xia Ling and her generals to attack Hong Chen's army, after which she took out her red sword, and charged straight at Hong Chen, her sudden attack made Hong Chen retreat backwards after parrying it.
Hong Chen continued to fend off Zhu Yuhe's attacks, but the speed and power of her attacks made his hands slightly numb, what's more, her movement speed was also quite fast. 'Fuck! How can she move so fast?'
"Fire Splitters!" Zhu Yuhe snorted and her sword was already shrouded in red flames, she then swung his sword at Hong Chen, and several crescent-shaped flames headed straight for Hong Chen.
Seeing Zhu Yuhe's numerous and fast attacks, Hong Chen immediately activated his protection. "Vermilion Barrier!"
*Boom... Boom...*
Although Hong Chen managed to fend off several of Zhu Yuhe's attacks, his barrier eventually collapsed and several of her attacks hit his body directly. It made him spit out a mouthful of blood, and parts of his robes were torn as well. "Guah!"
