Rebirth: Living in Wilderness with My Superpower-Chapter 1007: Two Armies Confront Each Other

The bandits and guards still fighting inside the city were all stunned, unable to comprehend what was happening outside for a moment.

Judging by the terrifying sounds of slaughter, could it be that enemy forces had arrived?

Instantly, the attacks within the city weakened, and the bandits took the opportunity to flee in panic.

But fleeing turned out to be the worst decision; as they escaped the city, they found a dense formation of soldiers encircling the area tightly outside.

The overwhelming aura of "troops at the gates" made the bandits’ knees buckle. Knowing their fate was sealed, their faces turned ashen as they obediently returned to the city to surrender and disarm.

Better to fall into the hands of the guards than die beneath iron-shod boots. At least being locked in prison might extend their lives for a few days, and who knows, there might even be a chance for atonement through merit. But stepping outside—when those thirty thousand ironclad troops arrive—they’d likely be trampled into dust without a trace.

Li Wenli, however, lacked the bandits’ clarity. Seeing the imposing presence of these people, he didn’t hesitate. With a tiptoe, he dashed toward Yuwen Jun’s direction. ƒгeewёbnovel.com

Li Wenli moved as fast as lightning, targeting directly at Yuwen Jun while aiming for his hand with a sharp slash.

Although Yuwen Jun wasn’t gifted with Special Ability, he had been trained in Martial Arts since childhood. Like a swimming dragon, he gracefully stepped back to dodge the attack. Then, the blade of Bailou in his hand, gleaming like a silver chain, shot straight at Li Wenli’s face.

While grappling with Yuwen Jun, Li Wenli’s eyes were fixated on the five mystical rings on Yuwen Jun’s hand.

These rings—he had once spotted them in the hands of Prime Minister Lin of the Cloak People. At the time, they had inflicted wounds on him like never before; it had taken him ages to recover his Special Ability.

Later, Bai Junjun had absorbed and converted that Stone into Special Ability, thinking that the troubles brought by the Stone were finally over. But who would have expected Yuwen Jun to be so cunning, withholding full offerings to Witch Ancestor Mountain’s Gu Master by cutting off pieces from the Stone to keep for himself?

Now, Li Wenli’s Special Ability was ineffective against Yuwen Jun; he could only rely on brute force to fight.

However, Yuwen Jun wielded the famed sword Bailou, which wasn’t something ordinary weapons could rival. After just a few exchanges, Li Wenli’s blade was severed.

Li Wenli simply discarded the weapon and charged barehanded.

In The Apocalypse, besides their Special Ability, they excelled most in close combat.

Li Wenli knew the structure of the human skeleton inside out—he clearly understood which joints were weakest and which spots were most fatal.

His attacks lacked flamboyance; every move was lethal.

Yuwen Jun was forced to retreat repeatedly by the peculiar Cultivation Technique, even finding his otherwise overwhelming advantage with Bailou becoming a burden under Li Wenli’s crafty strikes.

As Li Wenli gradually gained the upper hand, the black-clad followers on his side all sighed with relief, shifting from worry to sheer admiration. The thought of becoming his disciple was stirring restlessly within them.

At the edge of the viewing area, only Bai Junjun remained frowning.

Against a troublesome opponent like Yuwen Jun, Fox would typically unleash Wind Blade to settle matters swiftly. Yet today, he chose melee combat—there was definitely something unusual about this.

Thus, Bai Junjun kept her eyes wide open, closely observing the situation.

Finally, amidst their back-and-forth exchanges and counterattacks, Bai Junjun noticed the black ring on Yuwen Jun’s hand.

The subtle, oppressive aura exuding from the ring felt eerily familiar to her. It took her a moment to realize that it was the same as the Stone.

At once, Bai Junjun understood why Fox refrained from using his Special Ability.

Considering her own refinement of the four Black Dragons, Bai Junjun decided to attempt communication with the Stone embedded in Yuwen Jun’s rings, hoping to absorb their power.

But surprisingly, the Stone on Yuwen Jun’s ring showed no reaction at all.
