Chapter 455 Dian Wei Is Promoted to a Legendary General and Returns to Qingzhou

"Fight!"

Zhang Xiu roared, and his spear skills seemed to be given life at this moment. Every move and every strike contained unyielding and tenacity. The phoenix shadow on the spear tip was wrapped in flames and turned into a dazzling light, heading straight for Dian Wei.

Dian Wei laughed more and more crazily when he saw this. The blood of the ancient evil in his body was affecting Dian Wei, making Dian Wei gradually lose his mind and give up the last bit of his reason. At the same time, a more violent force surged out of his body. On the halberd, lightning and thunder intertwined, as if they could split mountains and shatter rocks and tear the earth apart.

The collision between the halberd and the spear was the collision between lightning and fire, which erupted with a deafening roar, and at the same time, a dazzling light lit up, illuminating the people around him so that they couldn't open their eyes.

Although Zhang Xiu's Phoenix Nirvana spearmanship was strong, it seemed a little powerless in front of Dian Wei's almost brutal power. The spear shadows and the halberd lights intertwined, and the two figures kept intersecting. Every collision caused the surrounding grass to be flattened. Even the three first-class generals wanted to intervene but couldn't do it, and they couldn't see the specific situation on the battlefield. Only Liu Bao and Cao Zhang in the distance could see the two people in the center of the battlefield clearly.

As time went by, Zhang Xiu's spearmanship became more and more exquisite, and Dian Wei's power became more and more violent. The strength of both sides was rapidly increasing like a rising tide. The shackles in Dian Wei's body that had been difficult to match just now actually loosened again.

This discovery made Dian Wei excited. He originally thought that he would no longer have the opportunity to be promoted to a legendary general normally, but Zhang Xiu's unexpected performance made him feel that wonderful feeling again.

"Hahaha, my transformation begins today!"

Dian Wei suddenly shouted, full of fighting spirit. His eyes were as red as blood, as if there was a flame burning. That was the desire and enthusiasm for fighting deep in his heart. He put all his strength into every attack and no longer held back. He wanted to completely release himself in this duel and seek the opportunity for a breakthrough.

Zhang Xiu's face was solemn. He was shocked and frightened at this moment. At this moment, he had surpassed his peak when he was young, and his combat power had reached an unprecedented level, but he was still not Dian Wei's opponent, because Dian Wei seemed to grow faster than him. Just now, he could almost be evenly matched with Dian Wei, but now, he even had a hard time dealing with Dian Wei's attack.

And Dian Wei seemed to be able to grow all the time, which was what really frightened him. He originally thought that after finding the heart of the gun, he should be invincible, at least defeating Dian Wei would not be a problem, but often things don't go as planned.

Taking a deep breath, Zhang Xiu used the Phoenix Nirvana Spear Technique to the extreme. The phoenix on the tip of the spear had almost transformed from the gaze just now into reality, with the momentum of burning everything, and the blood-red breath of Dian Wei complemented each other, and the lightning that fell from the sky from time to time made this battle mysterious and dangerous.

The flames and lightning intertwined in the air to form a thrilling picture. Every collision seemed to be a collapse of the sky and the earth, which made people palpitate.

After being chopped back by Dian Wei's halberd for more than ten feet again, Zhang Xiu could no longer bear it. His spear intent exploded all over his body. Decades of practice finally condensed into a spear and stabbed out. Behind Zhang Xiu, a huge phantom holding a gun appeared, and followed Zhang Xiu to stab that gun.

After one shot, Zhang Xiu's realm of the famous general no longer existed, and he became a first-class general again. This shot seemed to fill the entire sky, and the condensed gun intent surged out, carrying unparalleled power and flying towards Dian Wei. At this moment, Dian Wei actually had a feeling of insignificance when facing Guan Yu.

However, that feeling only lasted for a moment and then disappeared, but it was this moment of hesitation that made Dian Wei lose the best opportunity to resist. When Dian Wei made another move, the gun was only a fraction of a second away from Dian Wei.

Dian Wei roared, and behind him, there was also a blood-red figure standing up, holding a giant war halberd, and the appearance of Dian Wei holding the halberd was exactly the same. Dian Wei roared, and he also raised his head and opened his mouth, as if he was fighting against the sky, roaring at the sky, venting his dissatisfaction in his heart.

With a halberd swinging out, two huge phantoms collided in the air. Dian Wei and Zhang Xiu seemed to have suffered a violent collision at the same time. They flew backwards one after another. The huge impact force almost made Dian Wei, who had the physique of a famous general, unable to bear it. The shot just now was really too powerful.

Although Zhang Xiu had become a first-class general again, his physique of a famous general was still there. Under the collision of this attack, he also rolled backwards several times before stopping his body and spitting out blood. The huge force made him almost unable to bear it. This was because he was the one who initiated the attack, and he was only affected by the aftermath. This is why his physique is much weaker than Dian Wei, but he also withstood this terrifying impact.

Dian Wei fell to the ground, trying to suppress the sweetness in his chest, but he still couldn't suppress it, and a mouthful of blood spurted out, but Dian Wei laughed crazily, just like the last time he fought with Guan Yu, he was seriously injured but still laughed crazily, he finally broke through that shackles, successfully ascended to the level of a legendary general, no longer just a famous general.

He finally had the confidence to face Guan Yu head-on, and at the same time he had the strength.

At this time, the red light on Dian Wei's body dissipated, and the effect of the Ancient Evil skill disappeared, but Dian Wei's aura was still rising, even more profound than when Dian Wei's skill effect was still there, giving people an elusive feeling.

"Hahaha, finally, I can finally help the lord deal with Guan Yu."

Dian Wei knelt on the ground, almost crying with joy. For him, Cao Cao's matter was a big deal. Since Guan Yu was promoted to a legendary general, Cao Cao has been frowning, and even went out less, because he was afraid that Guan Yu would come to take his life at all costs.

Although Cao Cao didn't say all this, he also knew what kind of danger Cao Cao was facing. From then on, he began to work hard to catch up with Guan Yu so that he could protect Cao Cao.

Now, he finally did it, so he cried with joy without caring about being on the battlefield.

After Cao Zhang saw this scene, he also realized everything. He immediately led 3,000 tiger and leopard cavalry to Dian Wei's side to prevent Dian Wei from having any unexpected situation at this critical moment.

"Congratulations, General Dian Wei!"

After Cao Zhang came to Dian Wei, he clasped his hands and said, his face full of joy that could not be concealed.

Dian Wei nodded slightly to Cao Zhang, and at the same time, he had a new understanding of his lord's son. His trip to the Xiongnu with Cao Zhang greatly improved his impression of Cao Zhang.

"Thank you for your help, the next few lives will be left to you."

Dian Wei stood up, and his momentum became more fierce, and his breath became more restrained, and he became different from before.

Just like when Guan Yu was promoted before, wherever he was, it seemed as if he was the center of the world, and the whole person seemed to be integrated into this world.

"Then please General Dian, I will kill those evil bandits!"

"Sir, just fight the enemy, I will take care of the rest."

Dian Wei said in a deep voice, holding his halberd and walking behind Cao Zhang, Cao Zhang held his halberd and rushed towards Liu Bao and Zhang Xiu, the other three kings of the three courts were all blown away by the aftermath of the battle between Dian Wei and Zhang Xiu, all three were seriously injured, spitting out a few mouthfuls of blood, and lost their fighting power.

Therefore, Cao Zhang's target was only Zhang Xiu and Liu Bao, but Dian Wei and Cao Zhang didn't know that Zhang Xiu had become a first-class general at this moment, but he still had the physique of a famous general, so he survived the battle just now.

Cao Zhang's figure was like lightning, his halberd cut through the air, bringing bursts of whistling, and went straight to Zhang Xiu and Liu Bao.

Although Zhang Xiu lost his famous general's martial power, he still had a unique understanding. After all, he was different from other first-class generals. Although his level dropped, his rekindled gun heart made him lose the level of a famous general, but he had a fighting power that was not weaker than that of a famous general.

After all, he was once the spear king of the north, and he was deeply influenced by Tong Yuan. Tong Yuan's Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix spear technique was learned by Zhang Xiu and transformed into a spear technique more suitable for himself. At the same time, he also inherited Tong Yuan's Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix spear. Although the level of a famous general was gone, his gun heart was clearer, which meant that Xu Xiu's strength had not dropped much.

He endured the pain and performed the Phoenix Nirvana spear technique again. The phoenix transformed by the spear tip seemed to be reborn from the ashes, with a more blazing light. The light enveloped him, allowing him to gain a trace of the power of the Phoenix Nirvana. The power that had been exhausted in his body began to slowly recover at this moment, and at the same time, the pain all over his body was slowly weakening. This was the effect of the Phoenix Nirvana spear technique after training to the strongest, which could gain a trace of power.

It was this little bit of power that allowed Zhang Xiu's physical strength to recover quickly.

At the same time, Liu Bao attacked Cao Zhang's halberd, and Zhang Xiu also joined the battle with his halberd.

On the battlefield, the three figures intertwined, and the sound of weapons colliding was endless. Every confrontation contained huge energy.

Although Cao Zhang was fighting one against two, he became more and more courageous, and he was not at a disadvantage even when facing two people. However, the cooperation between Zhang Xiu and Liu Bao was simply perfect. The two were like being born from the same mother's womb, and each was an extension of the other's limbs. For a while, the two cooperated closely, and Cao Zhang was a little overwhelmed. However, Cao Zhang was indeed strong. Facing the siege of the two, although it was a bit difficult to deal with, he was not defeated by the offensive of the two.

Dian Wei stood aside, his eyes were like torches, always paying attention to the situation on the battlefield. As long as Cao Zhang was in any danger, Dian Wei would immediately take action to help Cao Zhang out of trouble. Dian Wei has now been promoted to a legendary general, and it is easy for him to deal with Zhang Xiu and Liu Bao, without any extra effort.

Cao Zhang faced the attack of two people alone, but he was still ready to counterattack at all times. Cao Zhang, who had lived on the battlefield since he was a child, always kept this in mind. The best defense is offense.

Seizing the opportunity, the long halberd suddenly exerted force. Cao Zhang hit Zhang Xiu's long spear with a heavy blow, and then took advantage of the situation and stabbed Zhang Xiu's chest with a halberd. Liu Bao on the side immediately raised his knife and slashed, trying to knock away Cao Zhang's attack. After all, Zhang Xiu's long spear had been out of his hand, and he had no power to fight back against Cao Zhang.

Zhang Xiu looked at Cao Zhang who was rushing towards him and suddenly smiled evilly, then immediately understood Cao Zhang's true intention, and shouted hurriedly.

"Don't come over!"

But when he reacted, it was too late. Cao Zhang's long halberd had already turned around and stabbed Liu Bao. Although Liu Bao reacted quickly, the halberd still stabbed Liu Bao's shoulder. However, Liu Bao was worthy of being a famous general. He immediately slashed with a knife, forcing Cao Zhang to retreat, and slashed Cao Zhang's abdomen with a knife.

The two exchanged injuries, and the injuries of both sides were almost the same. Liu Bao was pierced through the shoulder by a spear, and his entire left arm could no longer move at all, while Cao Zhang's lower abdomen was cut with a deep cut, and the cut was bleeding continuously. Although it did not affect Cao Zhang's continued fighting, the result of excessive blood loss would be more serious than the consequence of Liu Bao's shoulder being pierced.

At the same time, in Qingzhou and Linzi City thousands of miles away, Gu Rubing, Guan Yuhe, Zhuge Liang, Wei Yan and others were quietly waiting outside the city for the return of the expeditionary army.

Huang Zhong and Ma Chao saw Gu Rubing waiting outside the city when they were still some distance away from Linzi City, so they immediately galloped towards Gu Rubing with the remaining 500 cavalrymen.

When they were still a few dozen meters away, Huang Zhong, Ma Chao and the cavalrymen all dismounted and trotted towards Gu Rubing, then half-knelt on the ground.

"My lord, it is my fault. I failed to capture Wuhuan and was ambushed by Cao Cao's men, and lost the Wuhuan territory. Please punish me!"

Huang Zhong half-knelt on the ground, clasped his hands and said, while Ma Chao also spoke.

"My lord, it is my fault. I failed to anticipate the ambush by Cao Cao's men. It was the old general who led us out of the army with his own strength. Please consider the old general's merits and offset his faults. Don't punish the old general, just punish me."

Gu Rubing hurried forward, holding one person with one hand, and helped the two people up.

"Han Sheng, Meng Qi, what are you doing? Get up, get up."

The two were still half-kneeling on the ground, refusing to get up. Gu Rubing had no choice but to use both hands to force the two to stand up.

"What are you doing?!"

Gu Rubing pretended to be angry. The two stood up with Gu Rubing's help, but still lowered their heads.

Gu Rubing opened his arms, hugged the two, and patted their shoulders.

"It's good to be back, it's good to be back, as long as you can come back, I'll be relieved."

Listening to what Gu Rubing said, the two couldn't help but shed two lines of tears. They were all men who had been in the army for many years. After experiencing the life and death of their comrades, their relationship with each other became deeper.
