75: White Robe General

Being a Earth-tier warhorse, Big Yellow was several grades higher than the warhorse Ding Yanping rode, and it ran incredibly fast, creating a significant distance between them in just a few breaths.

Seeing Lin Yue getting away, Ding Yanping flicked his wrist, sending three pebbles flying directly towards the horse's legs.

Big Yellow sensed danger and suddenly leapt into the air, dodging two pebbles, but was still hit by the third, letting out a whinny as it fell to the ground.

Lin Yue was also thrown to the ground, his internal organs churning violently!

Ding Yanping sneered, spurred his horse forward, and charged at Lin Yue with his twin spears aimed directly at his face!

Lin Yue was powerless to resist at this moment; the difference in their strength was too vast, and he felt like a child before him!

“Clang!”

“Stop, villain! How dare you take a life in broad daylight!”

At this critical moment, a young general in white robes galloped out from behind Lin Yue, wielding a long spear and blocking the fatal blow!

“Brave one, quickly leave! You are not his match!” Lin Yue shouted with all his might.

If he were killed, it would simply mean going offline, or at worst, being unable to play the game as Lin Yue. But he didn't want to endanger another's life!

Ding Yanping was a First-rate Military General; few could survive his attacks, and he didn't want to drag an innocent person into this maelstrom!

“Brother, rest assured, I will capture this villain!” The young general in white robes had a handsome face and charged forward with a cold expression.

Ding Yanping frowned inwardly. To kill Lin Yue now, he had to deal with this young general in white robes who had suddenly appeared, otherwise he would be very passive!

The two then began to fight!

“Clang!”

“Thud!”

“Bang!”

The two men and three spears constantly intertwined, like swimming dragons, even producing a certain aesthetic beauty!

Zhao Yun swung his spear, and Ding Yanping's right-hand spear firmly parried it. The immense force, like a shockwave, split the large tree behind Ding Yanping in two, cleaving it down the middle!

Ding Yanping's expression remained unchanged, but he secretly felt it was troublesome. While his right-hand spear parried, his left-hand spear, like a phantom, instantly appeared before his opponent, thrusting directly at his face!

The young general in white robes was startled and quickly pulled his spear back, barely blocking the insidious and ghostly attack.

Ding Yanping's twin spears constantly shifted, sometimes his left hand thrusting, sometimes his right hand sweeping, sometimes both spears simultaneously chopping downwards, only to be withdrawn in an instant!

The young general in white robes narrowly escaped danger several times, skillfully dodging each attack. The area around them was no longer pristine, all affected by their battle and left in ruins!

Facing such ghostly spear techniques, a few drops of cold sweat dripped from the young general in white robes' forehead!

The spear is the king of all weapons, the foremost of the nine long weapons among the eighteen martial arts!

Countless people use it in this world, leading to many spear techniques, and consequently, many corresponding countermeasures and crack methods.

However, dual-spear wielders are rare. Faced with the unprecedented ghostly twin spears, the young general in white robes secretly felt strained and somewhat struggled to cope!

After another exchange, the two crossed paths and then turned their horses, continuing to fight without pause.

Ding Yanping thrust left and right, attacking unpredictably, disrupting the young general in white robes' moves. The general could only desperately parry, but then Ding Yanping's left-hand spear suddenly thrust out. He quickly used the butt of his spear, moving it an inch upwards, to deflect this sudden spear attack!

“Bang!”

Ding Yanping had imbued this spear with “Qi,” and the sound exploded!

The general's tiger's mouth went numb.

Seeing that the attack failed, the two stopped and crossed paths again, preparing for another round.

But just as the two warhorses crossed paths, preparing to resume their fight, Ding Yanping's left-hand spear, with its spearhead behind, suddenly lunged backwards, aiming directly at the general's lower back!

“Elbow-Coil Spear!”

The general was greatly startled and twisted his body to block!

“Ding Yanping!” Lin Yue suddenly shouted, seeing the situation was dire!

Ding Yanping was distracted by the sudden shout!

Taking advantage of his momentary distraction, the young general in white robes used all his strength to parry, barely blocking it. That Elbow-Coil Spear was extremely perilous, and he was almost injured by Ding Yanping!

However, Ding Yanping's heart was far from calm. He had never appeared in public before, and he was masked today. How did he know his name? Ding Yanping wondered.

“Are these all the moves you have?” The young general in white robes turned his horse and sneered.

“What is your name?” Ding Yanping asked in a deep voice.

This was the first time he had spoken today. He was truly curious how he could encounter such a military general in this desolate wilderness?

“I am Zhao Zilong of Changshan!” Zhao Yun raised his long spear and charged towards Ding Yanping!

“Zhao Zilong, I'll remember that.” Ding Yanping said in a low voice, then also charged forward.

Zhao Yun watched the distance between them constantly shorten, found the right moment, raised his spear, and thrust!

Although Ding Yanping's twin spears had multiple spearheads, making them unpredictable, there were pros and cons. The attack range of his long spears was inevitably shortened!

Although Zhao Yun's long spear only had one spearhead, its attack range was long.

After their recent exchange, Zhao Yun had gradually grasped Ding Yanping's style.

To break twin spears with a single spear, when Ding Yanping's twin spears thrust simultaneously, he would hold the butt of his spear and thrust forward as well. Because his spear was longer than Ding Yanping's, this would force Ding Yanping to defend.

Sure enough, Ding Yanping showed a rare look of panic, holding his twin spears to defend.

Although Zhao Yun's attack didn't succeed, he had verified his guess, and then he raised his long spear!

“Hundred Birds Facing the Phoenix!”

A phoenix flew from the tip of Zhao Yun's long spear towards him, surrounded by swirling mystical energy!

Ding Yanping held his twin spears to defend, showing a rare look of alarm. He seemed to hear a phoenix's cry!

“Bang!” Ding Yanping was sent flying dozens of meters away, creating a large crater in the ground, and dust flew everywhere!

Lin Yue ran over, waved his hand to clear the dust, and once the dust settled, Ding Yanping was nowhere to be seen!

“He ran away?” Lin Yue said in surprise, then walked towards Zhao Yun.

“Thank you for saving my life, benefactor!” Lin Yue bowed in present.

“Brother, please rise quickly.” Zhao Yun threw the long spear, which had begun to shatter from its tip, aside and smiled as he helped Lin Yue up: “When you see injustice, you should draw your sword to help; there's no need for thanks!

By the way, Brother, you are about my age, just call me Zi Long.”

Lin Yue looked at the long spear thrown aside and sighed: “This matter started because of me, and it needlessly cost benefactor a long spear. Benefactor, please leave an address, and Yue will surely repay you handsomely in the future.”

“Brother, there's no need for that, just call me Zi Long.

The Hundred Birds Facing the Phoenix that Zi Long used was too powerful, and the long spear couldn't withstand the force, which is why it broke. It's not your fault, Brother.” Zhao Yun smiled, not answering Lin Yue's question, but instead asked: “How should I address you, Brother?”

“I am Lin Yue.

Where is Zi Long headed?” Lin Yue asked, seeing that Zhao Yun hadn't answered.

This was Zhao Yun, Zhao Zilong, full of courage! If possible, presumably no one could refuse!

“My elder brother recently passed away from illness, and I must rush to Changshan in Julu Commandery, so I resigned from my official post and returned to my hometown,” Zhao Yun said.

“Where did Zi Long serve before?” Lin Yue asked curiously.

“I previously served under Gongsun Zan, the Colonel of Wulü County,” Zhao Yun said, somewhat reluctant to discuss the topic.

Gongsun Zan?

Gongsun Zan in Liaodong Commandery? Why hadn't he seen him before? Lin Yue wondered.

“Cough, cough... Commander, it's truly good that you're alright.” Li Mu walked over, trembling.
