Chapter 281 Yao Xiaotian Reappears
The poem's completion left many scholars and soldiers stunned, their faces reflecting the brilliance of the poem as if they were on a pilgrimage.
"Is this what world-renowned poetry is? This is the first time I've ever seen it."
A scholar murmured.
"Well, 'a hundred battles' is rather abstract, but adding the words 'yellow sand' is enough to highlight the characteristics of the northern battlefield,"
"These last two lines can clearly be described as the soldiers' heroic words. They complement the previous line, which in turn highlights the powerful and resounding nature of this line. When combined, they convey both a sense of grandeur and magnificence, as well as the soldiers' determination to defend the northern border to the death. The overall scope is vast, and the emotions are extremely tragic. It contains a wealth of power, truly a genius of all time."
Guo Ku sighed, a deep sense of frustration appearing on his face. Whether it was leading troops into battle or composing poems, he had developed a deep respect for Ye Ru.
"Look at the sky, those talents are like armor. Could this be the ever-changing clouds and mist of poetry?"
As Chen Tianjian watched the talent energy in the sky slowly condense into a suit of armor, he seemed to realize something and exclaimed in shock.
"Clouds and mist are ever-changing, and can transform into something substantial."
Guo Ku also realized what was happening, and his eyes widened as he spoke.
His talent gradually condensed, eventually forming a complete golden armor, which then slowly fell to the ground and was caught by Ye Ru.
"This armor was formed from talent, so I will name it the Golden Armor. I will present this armor to General Chen as a way of thanking him for recognizing my talent."
Ye Ru held the armor in his hands, lifted it up, and handed it to Chen Tianjian.
"Thank you very much, Chief Ye. I will accept it without hesitation."
Chen Tianjian seemed quite pleased, then accepted the golden armor, and then said:
"In my life, I have spent my days on the battlefield and have nothing of value. As the saying goes, it is only right to reciprocate. You are in full armor, and I cannot give you away empty-handed. So I present you with this landscape painting as a return gift."
With a wave of his hand, Chen Tianjian produced a scroll painting. As it slowly unfurled, the serene beauty of the landscape began to spread outwards.
"Thank you, Lord Chen."
Ye Ru took the painting, and immediately saw Wang Xiu's unpleasant expression. He said humbly:
"Mr. Wang Xiu, I should have won this poetry contest, right?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Xiu's expression changed slightly, but he then clasped his hands in a fist salute:
"I am completely convinced."
Before the words had even finished, a loud shout came from afar:
Someone has been poisoned!
"what?"
These words caused many people's expressions to change, and they immediately began to stir.
Ye Ru took a deep breath, carefully put away the scroll, and his lips moved slightly:
"Lord Chen, it's time to make a move. These wicked scholars are indeed getting restless."
"This is the moment we've been waiting for! Today we will surely wipe out these damned scholars in one fell swoop!"
Chen Tianjian's face suddenly turned murderous. One person shouted, and others joined in with shouts:
"The demon soldiers are attacking!"
"Everyone, please be patient!"
Chen Tianjian roared, his voice immediately spreading in all directions, but some people were still unwilling to give up and continued to shout:
"The demon soldiers have led their army to this place! Everyone, run!"
"Anyone who reports false military intelligence will be executed without mercy!"
Chen Tianjian roared again, then looked at Ye Ru. After seeing the latter nod, he moved and transformed into a stream of light, rushing towards one of them.
boom!
With a single strike, the warrior was instantly killed. Ye Ru closed his eyes, sensing the holy power of the Ghost Scholar, which was different from that of the human race. Every time the Ghost Scholar touched his palm, Chen Tianjian would kill a person.
However, at a certain moment, a beam of talent energy blasted towards Ye Ru.
boom!
At the critical moment, Guan Mou shattered the beam of talent with a single sword strike.
"It's really you..."
Ye Ru, who had been keeping his eyes closed, suddenly opened them and looked ahead, finally fixing his gaze on Wang Xiu.
"I must say, it's no exaggeration to call you a genius of all time, but how did you discover it was me?"
Wang Xiu's face suddenly changed from humble to evil, and a cold smile appeared on his lips, a smile that was extremely chilling.
"Yesterday, when you urged me to attend the banquet, you mentioned that you were also a descendant of Wang Can. How can you, by betraying your country, bring such shame upon your ancestors?"
Ye Ru's gaze turned slightly cold as he spoke in a deep voice.
“A descendant of Wang Can? You’re overthinking it. I’m just a ghost scholar. This body is just a body of your human race. It doesn’t matter if I take it over. The most important thing is to cause some chaos in this place, that’s enough.”
Wang Xiu smiled slightly, showing no remorse.
"As long as you are the leader, the rest of those ghostly scholars will not be so scary."
Ye Ru took a deep breath, his gaze gradually turning cold, and took out the Three Perfections Writing Brush, pointing it at Wang Xiu.
"Is that so? Even with Lord Chen here, you might still be no match for us."
Wang Xiu clapped his hands, and what happened next made Ye Ru's pupils shrink to the size of pinholes.
Suddenly, a huge black hole appeared in Wang Xiu's lower abdomen, and from within the black hole, a ghostly hand suddenly stretched out.
"I beg the Demon Lord to descend, with my life..."
The ghostly hand slowly crawled out, and Yao Xiaotian's figure also slowly crawled out.
"How can this be?"
Ye Ru's eyes widened, and a look of shock appeared on his face.
"It's a vicious summoning technique! I finally understand what that Yao Xiaotian meant by something more important!"
Chen Tianjian also looked solemn, and his throat bobbed slightly. With Yao Xiaotian's strength, he was probably enough to exhaust him and eventually cause those ghost scholars to cause an irreparable disturbance!
"Ye Ru, stop him!"
Guo Ku's expression also changed, and he exclaimed in surprise.
"It's too late..."
Yao Xiaotian's body finally crawled out under the horrified gazes of the crowd, eventually transforming into a cloud of black mist that swallowed a human warrior whole. At the same time, Zhang Kuang's arrogant voice echoed throughout the area:
"Lord Chen, we meet again."
As Yao Xiaotian appeared, another pair of ghostly hands emerged from Wang Xiu's lower abdomen, seemingly trying to crawl out as well. A suffocating aura spread outwards.
"Ye Ru, I'll stop Yao Xiaotian. You all stop the second demon lord from appearing!"
Chen Tianjian knew things were going badly. He stomped his foot and, without saying a word, charged fiercely towards Yao Xiaotian.
"He alone is not enough!"
Yao Xiaotian sneered, his body shrouded in dense demonic energy. He then transformed into his true form and viciously clawed at Chen Tianjian. Wherever he went, the air trembled violently.
Looking at Wang Xiu's ferocious expression, Ye Ru's face also showed a resolute look:
"Go back here!"
