Snatching Women from the Male Lead

Chapter 166

Huo Jun stopped Qin Zhao, who wanted to leave the city with him. "Your Highness, you can't go out. If anything happens to you, Yue Country cannot bear the consequences."

Qin Zhao did not insist. As the Crown Princess, she should not take risks without any concerns, as she did in the past.

"Fine, I won't go out. I'll wait for you in the city. I wish you a triumphant return," she said.

"I will, Your Highness. Don't worry," Huo Jun assured her.

Qin Zhao returned to the city tower to observe the battle.

Huo Jun mounted his horse and led the Northwestern Army out of the city.

He stood face to face with E Le Deng.

E Le Deng said, "Asura King, during the Qianqiu Festival, I lost to you. This time, I not only want to regain my dignity but also trample you underfoot!"

Huo Jun replied, "No, you will lose even more miserably!"

E Le Deng's mouth twitched, and he raised his sword, shouting, "Charge!"

Huo Jun didn't waste words and rode to meet him!

Inspired by the bravery of their general, the Northwestern Army behind her roared and clashed with the Chi Rong Army.

The two forces merged like two torrents.

Wherever they went, flesh and blood flew!

Qin Zhao watched with a pounding heart and couldn't help but exclaim in her mind, "It's amazing! Huo Jun is so cool!!

Host, are you really not going to join in the fun? I think it's so interesting!"

Qin Zhao replied, "I don't want to steal Huo Jun's thunder. Besides, this battle is Huo Jun's breakthrough. Whether she can become the Breaking Army Star depends on this moment!"

E Le Deng was not the only one who lost to Huo Chengjin; Sa Qi did as well!

They both simultaneously attacked Huo Jun, forming a siege around her.

E Le Deng noticed a significant change in her moves compared to the Longevity Festival.

Sa Qi also quickly realized this and exchanged a glance with him, discovering their shared doubts!

They began to suspect her identity and instinctively focused their attacks on Huo Jun's mask!

Although Huo Jun's martial arts surpassed theirs, facing the two's tacit cooperation, she still showed signs of exhaustion.

When she blocked E Le Deng for the sixth time and attempted to split her mask with a sword, Sa Qi spotted her defensive flaw!

With one stroke, she cleaved the mask in half!

The two of them finally saw Huo Jun's true face!

It was a delicate face similar to Huo Chengjin's but with distinct personal characteristics!

Sa Qi exclaimed in surprise, "You're a woman!"

E Le Deng chimed in, "And you're so beautiful, it's unbelievable!

Why fight? How about becoming my queen in Chi Rong Country?!"

Huo Jun sneered at him, took advantage of his lowered guard, and beheaded him with a single sword strike!

"Ah!"

The surrounding Chi Rong soldiers screamed at the sight!

Soon, more Chi Rong soldiers came over, and after witnessing E Le Deng's death, the morale of the Chi Rong Army plummeted!

The Chi Rong Army suffered heavy casualties!

Sa Qi, without time to lament E Le Deng's death, adjusted herself and launched a fierce attack on Huo Jun!

Her sword swung down, thick and heavy, and Huo Jun's sword failed to block it, breaking in two!

Sa Qi laughed heartily, "Are you bringing such substandard weapons to the battlefield to seek death?!

If you want to die, there's no need to go through so much trouble. Just lower your head, and I'll help you chop it off!"

Huo Jun frowned as she looked at the broken sword.

But at that moment, Qin Zhao's voice came, "Huo Jun, catch!"

Huo Jun followed the sound and saw Qin Zhao on the city tower, throwing down the Gold Splitting Sword that the emperor had bestowed upon her.

With precision, it came hurtling towards Huo Jun's position!

Huo Jun exerted her legs and leaped, catching the Gold Splitting Sword in mid-air!

With the Gold Splitting Sword in her hands, Huo Jun's eyes sparkled with determination as she said to Sa Qi, "If you want my head, you'll have to try harder. Otherwise, the one who will die will be you!"

Sa Qi snorted heavily and swung his sword.

Huo Jun raised her sword to counter, and the clash of their blades resounded with the sound of shattering metal!

Seeing a crack forming on Sa Qi's blade, he felt a surge of anxiety!

They fought fiercely, with Sa Qi trying to kill Huo Jun before his sword became useless.

However, things didn't go as he wished. In just a few moments, Sa Qi's sword broke completely, rendering it useless!

He had intended to grab a nearby soldier's sword, but Huo Jun didn't give him that opportunity.

She first severed his hands and then swiftly pierced his forehead!

Sa Qi stared with astonished eyes and fell backward.

With the consecutive loss of two commanders, the Chi Rong Army's momentum faltered, and they began to retreat!

They were being surrounded by the Northwestern Army!

With less than ten thousand soldiers remaining in the Chi Rong Army, and the darkness descending, pursuing further would be unfavorable for their own side.

Huo Jun shouted, "Don't pursue the defeated enemy!"

The Northwestern Army halted their footsteps at her command.

At the same time, everyone knew that Huo Jun was impersonating the Asura King. On the way back to the city, no one dared to look at her.

Huo Jun's hairpin had fallen off at some point, and her long hair was loose. Her eyes were bloodshot, giving her a fierce and enchanting appearance.

Qin Zhao was waiting in the city, and when she saw Huo Jun approaching, she waved at her.

Huo Jun quickened her pace and arrived at Qin Zhao's side.

The soldiers gathered around them, awaiting an explanation.

Qin Zhao looked at the puzzled crowd and spoke, "As the Crown Princess, I need to cultivate my own power. Huo Jun by my side is the military commander I have chosen.

I had her replace Huo Chengjin in the border battle to train her.

You have all seen the results."

Seeing the gradually clear expressions of the crowd, Qin Zhao's tone suddenly changed, "In addition, the Emperor sent me to the border with the intention of wanting me to die here."

This statement was too incredulous, and the soldiers couldn't hide their shock.

Qin Zhao casually continued, "The Emperor has a peculiar temperament. Whatever he does is not surprising.

He probably didn't expect me to come back alive.

Not only that, I will also bring a portion of the Northwestern Army back to the capital.

By now, I think everyone should understand what I'm saying."

A soldier in the front row spoke boldly, "I didn't understand, Your Highness, please explain!"

Qin Zhao continued, "Although I am already the Crown Princess, I don't have the support of public opinion. If my power is not strong enough, it will be difficult for me to ascend to the throne."

Someone shouted loudly, "I am willing to assist Your Highness, and lend a helping hand!"

The first person spoke up, prompting others to follow suit, "I'm willing too!"

"Your Highness, please allow me to follow you!"

Although the voices sounded noisy, the responders were less than half of the total.

Qin Zhao furrowed her brows, pondering how to convince the remaining soldiers.

Suddenly, Huo Jun knelt before Qin Zhao and declared loudly, "I am willing to follow Your Majesty for the rest of my life!"

Qin Zhao felt something in her heart and looked up, seeing the Big Dipper forming a straight line in the sky!
