Chapter IBMLS Ch.65 Salvation (3)
The guards fought as they slowly retreated, they backed up to a more open area. The chief guard knew that they couldn’t control Xie Xuanchen on their own, and could only try their best to fight as long as they could until Xie Xuanchen collapsed on his own.
This battle to drain him of his energy was extremely difficult, and within a short while, a few men were already carried away. At first, some new recruits didn’t know how capable he was and tried to sneakily attack from behind, but Xie Xuanchen didn’t even look back and with just a kick, their legs broke in half. After a few attempts, no one dared to approach Xie Xuanchen, so they could only run away from him, fighting him off persistently, but they didn’t dare to attack.
Not to even mention counterattack, if they could survive today, it was already a success. After a few rounds, it seemed that even fighting on was too tough for them, despair surged in the hearts of the men that were fighting at the scene.
This happened even after Xie Xuanchen’s body was greatly exhausted. This proved when Xie Xuanchen was in his best condition, what a killing machine he would become. It was said that the Qiang Jie clan and the other clans retreated when they heard of Xie Xuanchen’s name. Now it seems that the rumors were actually real.
An indescribable sense of sadness surged in the chief guard’s heart. Today, he’ll fall here. They tried to keep the tiger in the cage, but in the end, they fed themselves to the tiger.
The chief guard re-assembled the remaining team and let everyone change a round of weapons. Swords and other short weapons were useless in front of Xie Xuanchen, they had a higher chance of survival with longer weapons. The chief guard commanded the people to fall into formation and held Xie Xuanchen back with a long red tassel spear. These red tasseled spears were all specially made to be heavy and sturdy. Everyone took the courage to attack together, first holding his waist, and then pinned Xie Xuanchen’s arms and legs, and they actually managed to hold him down.
The chief guard shouted loudly, his voice sounded hoarse: “This method is useful, hold hard, hold it!”
However, as he finished his sentence, Xie Xuanchen broke the end of the spear with one hand, and swept across the air while holding half of the red tasseled spear. The soldiers who tried their best to stay in formation flew right away.
The chief guard actually felt desperate right now.
When Xie Xuanji rushed over, he happened to bump into such a scene. With so many people in formation, Xie Xuanchen could overthrow each and everyone by himself. Xie Xuanji’s long-lost fear resurfaced at the moment. Since Xie Xuanchen went into a coma, he rarely felt scared. Every time he felt scared, it was because of this person in front of him.
Xie Xuanji’s face was pale and asked, “Where is the Jing Er elixir?”
“We’ve already sent someone to get it, but no one can get close to Prince Qiyang so we can’t feed it to him.”
The guard said as he stepped forward and showed Xie Xuanji the Jing Er elixir in the brocade box. Xie Xuanji glanced and looked back at the scene in front of him, he knew that the guard was right.
The most urgent task now was to control Xie Xuanchen as soon as possible, and then look for a chance to feed him the Jing Er elixir. This elixir was created by a skilled doctor. When Xie Xuanchen was out of control, he would kill anyone he sees. Only this elixir could calm him down.
Xie Xuanji didn’t dare to underestimate Xie Xuanchen in the slightest, and he confessed to the guard coldly: “Any weapon is useless against him. Strip away all your swords and throw them aside. It would be even more troublesome if he took your sword away from you. Zhao Mu, you lead the second team, throw the chain to trap him. Remember, you have only one chance, if you miss, you must immediately retreat. Li Fang, you lead the third team, shoot the arrows. The first team will listen to my orders, do as you’re told.”
