Chapter 503.1: Accidentally Summoning the G.o.d of Death
The West Xiongnu Daxian w.a.n.g was probably just trying to sound out, wanting to see whether or not Qi Yuan had changed the main commander, or if some problem had occurred. Just, he unexpectedly hit the target by a stroke of luck. Of course, one also can’t eliminate the possibility of there being a spy. Just, this possibility was relatively small. After all, it had always been perfectly fine previously, not having anything go wrong in this aspect. Besides, since Jin Qinw.a.n.g dared to bring Jin w.a.n.gfei along, then he certainly will have an understanding of the situation here, so what should be cleaned up will all be cleared away cleanly.
As for how many people Jin Qinw.a.n.g planted here, it really was hard to say, but it definitely won’t be few. Previously, he didn’t give Jin Qinw.a.n.g any information, yet Jin Qinw.a.n.g was still able to be very clear about the circ.u.mstances here, even coming to tell him about the Xiongnu’s troops, and from there, plan the tactics. As one would ask, if not having the manpower, can one achieve this?
And after arriving, afraid the guard will only be even more strict. Spies are only a minority existence, so to want to come and go, afraid it’ll be even harder than scaling the skies.
However, the situation right now was indeed a bit th.o.r.n.y. This battle, if one doesn’t answer, then it will certainly affect one’s own side’s morale. To cower first before fighting was definitely a big taboo in leading troops, but if one answers, then without a doubt, Fu Yun Ting certainly will have no return.
It was already the third time Xiongnu has sent someone to the front. If one still doesn’t answer, it similarly will cause a disturbance on one’s own side, and West Xiongnu’s Daxian w.a.n.g certainly will also take the opportunity to do a bit of something. Otherwise, won’t it just be letting by such a good opportunity.
“First accompany me out.” For the time being, there weren’t any good ideas, so Fu Yun Ting decided to first go to the front for a look.
“General, your body right now, how can you………”
Fu Yun Ting waved his hand, “Won’t necessarily need to fight, but one needs to appear.”

Just, because of the injury, the armor indeed can’t be worn. However, Fu Yun Ting thought for a moment, already having a solution. As such, he didn’t even cover up his relatively pale complexion, because this wasn’t necessarily not an opportunity to use their plan against them. Wearing just a brocade gown, he appeared just like a n.o.ble young master, and not an invincible commander of the battlefield.
Before the battle, Fu Yun Ting paused in his steps, going to the watchtower first. He didn’t climb to the top, just stopping in the middle section, using the thousand-mile eye to survey. Through this glance, tsk, sure gathered a lot of people. Spinning the thousand-mile eye in hand, he turned around and descended the watchtower.
Letting someone bring over the warhorse, Fu Yun Ting nimbly got onto the horse. When his body was fine, it naturally wasn’t a problem, but doing this at this time, it seemingly was showing off a bit. However, this also couldn’t be helped. His body’s condition can’t be known by the numerous soldiers below. That’s why, it actually wasn’t showing off, but rather looking to suffer.
Fu Yun Ting rode the horse to the battlefield, the formation of troops automatically parting. Walking to the very front, he faced the West Xiongnu Daxian w.a.n.g from afar.
TN: All
The two sides both had over thirty thousand people. On the battlefield, gazing over the distance, the place was densely packed, yet at this very moment, it was very quiet, seemingly just hearing the sound of the wind and the sound of the horse hooves. .h.i.tting the ground.
“Hope Daxian w.a.n.g has been well. One has long wanted to meet with Daxian w.a.n.g, but unfortunately never had the opportunity, very much regretful.”
The field was too wide, so to want to have the words delivered, one naturally needed to let someone shout the words. Although the main commanders of the two armies were shouting through the air, the voice won’t be like a mosquito. In addition to being people that practiced martial arts, their ears and eyes were keen. For them to hear one another, it was more than enough. Just on the battlefield, some things still needed for more people to know.
That’s why, having someone with a loud voice in the army was still very necessary.
“This w.a.n.g also have such regrets. That’s why, specially picked today. Just, looking at General Fu, this is not planning on accepting the challenge?”
West Xiongnu’s Daxian w.a.n.g once lived outside for many years, and his first stop was precisely Qi Yuan. Moreover, it was also the placed he lived the longest. To want to understand a country’s culture, the language was naturally the first obstacle. And in this aspect, this Daxian w.a.n.g actually had quite the talent. A mouthful of authentic Qi Yuan language, it practically couldn’t be more smooth. And by his side, quite a few also understood the Qi Yuan language.
This Daxian w.a.n.g, compared to the others soldiers of Xiongnu, wasn’t that tall and study, and even because of the influences from other countries’ cultures, even if his mannerism was the same as the people by his side, it still penetrated with a ‘scholarly air’, so didn’t he precisely not fit in with a bunch of barbarians. This was also the place that certain people fighting with him for power attacked.
“It’s not refusing to accept the challenge, but rather, as luck would have it, this commander’s body has been unwell these last two days, so afraid one’s strength will be lacking, unable to let Daxian w.a.n.g enjoy oneself to the fullest, asking Daxian w.a.n.g to please forgive.” Fu Yun Ting’s elegance was ample, full of sincerity.
“Is that so, then if this w.a.n.g were to forcibly let General Fu take the challenge, won’t one appear underhanded. Just, in my Xiongnu, once the challenge is issued, there’s absolutely no reason to withdraw. Men of Xiongnu, even if just having one breath, then even if crawling, still need to crawl up to take the challenge.”
“Judging from Daxian w.a.n.g’s meaning, it’s insisting on battling? In that case, fine. Someone come, fetch my weapon.” Fu Yun Ting very calmly said. As for exactly what he was thinking on the inside, that was a completely different matter.
“General, but, your body………”
Fu Yun Ting waved his hand, “No matter, just a bit of a cold, that’s all. It’s not to the extent of completely not having the strength to fight. Moreover, this commander believes that Daxian w.a.n.g won’t take advantage of someone else’s difficulties.” He let his personal guard have his long halberd brought over.
Fu Yun Ting appeared calm on the surface, but in reality, he was extremely uncomfortable. Just holding the halberd, he was already faintly sweating, but he can’t let others make out his condition in the slightest, needing to appear as calm and nonchalant as possible. Right now, the place that hurt the most was still his throat. Originally, it was best to not talk, yet he even raised his voice, so wasn’t it precisely burning in pain.
His two legs pressed against the horse’s stomach, heading towards the center of the field between the two armies. Right now, he was merely just betting, betting on Daxian w.a.n.g’s poise, betting on Xiongnu people’s moral integrity. He bet that Daxian w.a.n.g was still just trying to sound him out. The Xiongnu people were dauntless, possessing their own pride. Absolutely not shrinking back was one thing, but when clearly knowing the opponent’s condition was subpar, they won’t easily take action either, because even if winning, that was also winning through an unfair advantage.
But, when two armies were at war, the so called ‘not taking advantage of someone’s difficulties’, that also had a premise. If clearly knowing Fu Yun Ting’s current situation, knowing that he was simply no match for oneself, for Daxian w.a.n.g to not take the opportunity to slaughter Fu Yun Ting, that would be strange.
In front of tens of thousands of soldiers, beheading their main commander, the army morale certainly will be crushed. Compared to an unprecedented victory, compared to fertile land, rich food, and countless beautiful women, elegance and moral integrity can all be fed to the gra.s.sland wolves.
Fu Yun Ting spurred the horse, gradually proceeding. And Xiongnu’s Daxian w.a.n.g also slowly walked out on horseback.
Seeing the distance closing in slowly, Fu Yun Ting inwardly s.h.i.+vered. What happened, could it be that there really was a spy? Just now, this Daxian w.a.n.g wasn’t trying to sound out, but rather forcing him to accept the challenge? If it’s really like this, then can only go all out in this fight. Already having the resolution inside, Fu Yun Ting lifted his hand, shaking the reins, speeding up……….
Just, Daxian w.a.n.g at this time nevertheless pulled the reins, “Since General Fu’s body is unwell, then how about fighting another day.”
Fu Yun Ting also promptly pulled the reins, “Once this commander’s body recovers, even if Daxian w.a.n.g doesn’t invite, this commander will still exchange moves with Daxian w.a.n.g.” Fu Yun Ting held the blade in hand while cupping his hand, and then pulled the reins to turn around.
Just, after turning around, his expression just became a bit peculiar. Among the Qi Yuan army, his original position already got replaced by someone, someone that at a glance, appeared incompatible with the surrounding, yet after slightly focusing, he seemingly completely blended in with the surrounding. Jin Qinw.a.n.g’s appearance made Fu Yun Ting somewhat produce an unrealistic thought: ‘Jin Qinw.a.n.g specifically came to help him out?’
Li Hong Yuan riding over on horseback wasn’t like Fu Yun Ting previously, moving as slowly as possible. In an extremely short amount of time, he already reached Fu Yun Ting’s side, raising his chin at Daxian w.a.n.g, “The strongest in Xiongnu’s army?”
