"Lord, the enemy is approaching the Dragon Bone Great Wall. Are you sure that wall can withstand the Imperial Cavalry, especially if some of them are equipped with Martial Helmets?" After learning that the Imperial Tax Officer and the expeditionary army were closing in, the old housekeeper Batesin rushed over from Bailu County. The Lord, who was rarely seen in public, was leisurely seated in the newly repaired corridor of the Lord Mansion. Hongling was serving at his side, providing wine and newly picked fruits, embodying the demeanor of a refined dandy with half-closed eyes, holding a glass of freshly frothy beer in his right hand, while deftly popping a cherry into his mouth with the other. "Rest assured, Batesin, haven’t you heard the song that goes, ’The Great Wall never falls?’ " Yue Jinghua said with a smile, although her Spiritual Sense had already galloped to places tens of miles away. This time, having assimilated the Primordial Spirit of Mo Kang, she had broken through to Dark Heavenly. Her spiritual power and Dark Skill cultivation had improved leaps and bounds. Now, without stepping out, she could observe the affairs ten miles away and control hundreds of Giant Winged Mosquito Kings flying within the county, having everything at her fingertips. Glancing at the Sky Dragon Palace floating above Yunluo Lake, Yue Jinghua felt that "stealing" the Sky Dragon Palace was an absolutely correct decision. The male Jiao Long of the Sky Dragon Palace and the female Jiao Long that made up the Dragon Bone Great Wall could be considered a couple among Jiao Longs. Their gathering in one place made the pressure they exerted even stronger than before. But even a cunning rabbit has three burrows, and sly as Yue Jinghua was, how could she have set up only a single line of defense? "Hongling, have Nan Muyu come here. Just as I instructed earlier, you all need to..." After giving her instructions, Hongling immediately departed. Soon after, Yue Jinghua muttered to herself, "It’s about the right time, I should meet an old friend, Jin Nuo, soon." Outside the Dragon Bone Great Wall, the Fierce Rhinoceros, acting like a bulldozer, thundered forward, with Imperial Soldiers charging on its back, bugles in their mouths, as they rushed toward the narrow pass of the Dragon Bone Great Wall. One kilometer, five hundred meters, three hundred meters... As they progressively closed in. The soldiers were all highly spirited, while Jin Nuo and Niu Er, Tax Officer, watching from afar, also raised their eyebrows high, unable to hide the excitement in their eyes. "Lord Jin Nuo, we really owe you big this time," Niu Er, Tax Officer, said with a glowing face, vigorously flattering Jin Nuo. He was well aware that the Military Department hadn’t allocated any Martial Helmets this time; the twenty sets of helmets were merely Jin Nuo’s personal stash. "Haha, I’ve always said, how can Fengdan County compare with the Pengbo Family..." The words of Niu Er, Tax Officer were cut off as Jin Nuo’s expression suddenly changed, and the previously unobstructed Fierce Rhinoceros started wailing in pain. Just three hundred meters away from the Dragon Bone Great Wall, a sudden abnormality occurred. The soldiers on the rhino’s back were thrown into chaos, their eyes widened, seeing the earlier smooth plain that showed no signs of traps or ambushes. Suddenly, a wave of black "tide" surged up. Upon closer inspection, it was not a tide but rather a type of Poisonous Grass with incredible clinging ability, secreting toxins from its leaves. The Fierce Rhinoceros, trapped by waves of poisonous grass, were already in utter disarray and uncontrollably agitated. The Charging Soldiers in heavy Martial Helmets were thrown off the rhino’s back, rolling into the Poisonous Grass. A few skillful soldiers, knowing the grass was toxic, rolled away from the Poisonous Grass with a quick somersault. Although the Poisonous Grass had formidable attack power, it grew only around three hundred meters from the Dragon Bone Great Wall. Once they escaped that area, they were safe. "Dammit," watching the Charging Soldiers of the Empire roll and crawl on the plain like drowned rats, while the Fierce Rhinoceros lost control and got dragged into the cluster of Poisonous Grass, being reduced to bones in no time. Jin Nuo was swearing coarsely, his normally calm temperament completely worn away at this point. "Black Beauty," the Long Teng pattern on his chest lit up, a dragon’s roar echoed through the sky. Imposing as a small mountain, Black Beauty flapped her dragon wings. With a swift step, Jin Nuo had already leapt onto Black Beauty’s back: "All troops listen, split into three groups, prepare kerosene and Fire. If I don’t level this damn wall to the ground today, I am not a Pengbo." Jin Nuo, being Jin Nuo, discerned the weakness of the Burning Poison Algae planted by Yue Jinghua in just one glance. He took a deep breath and Jin Nuo’s vehement shouts reverberated across the mountains and plains. The Charging Soldiers, originally terrified by the Poisonous Grass to the point of losing their souls, suddenly felt as though their minds were stabbed by a Sword blade, and they abruptly woke up. Several hundred Imperial Soldiers, some lighting the Fires, others carrying barrels of oil, Jin Nuo took the lead in lighting a torch and threw it into the Burning Poison Algae. The Black Dragon soaring high in the sky, and the Imperial Soldiers rolling like falling stones, for a moment, the land outside the Dragon Bone Great Wall was filled with a thunderous clamor of battle. The entire plain seemed to rumble and roar. The Burning Poison Algae, fiercely afraid of the Fire, immediately contracted its branches and leaves upon contact with the heat of the flames. From an initial mad onslaught to retreating swiftly like a receding tide, the Imperial Soldiers surged wave after wave, already reaching within a hundred meters of the Dragon Bone Great Wall. From his commanding position, Jin Nuo, when the troops reached a hundred meters near the Dragon Bone Great Wall, leapt down. "Hmph, is that all? I want to see what other tricks are under this," Jin Nuo said, scanning around and not seeing any further Poisonous Grass. He continued walking forward a few steps, yet there was still no movement. What surprised Jin Nuo was the thunderous battle sounds on the plain, yet inside Fengdan County, there was not the slightest reaction. Not even a single local resident could be seen. Jin Nuo, deep in thought, involuntarily walked a few more steps forward. Just then, an Imperial Soldier had already run to the front of the Dragon Bone Great Wall. Official source ıs 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹⟡𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮⟡𝙣𝙚𝙩 Facing this bizarre ancient wall that had caused them heavy losses, the Imperial Soldiers couldn’t help but be curious. They examined the strange ancient wall before them closely, one of them noticed that on the wall, not only were there natural stone patterns, but each block also seemed to have a lotus-shaped engraving. Moreover, the shape of each lotus carved on it was also different. "Could it be for aesthetics? But why lotus-shaped?" Out of curiosity, that soldier couldn’t help but touch it. Even then, a loud explosion came to Jin Nuo’s ears. "Damn, it’s an enemy attack," by the time he realized, it was already too late, the lotus engravings on the Foundation Stone of the Dragon Bone Great Wall had quietly transformed. The lotus flowers fell like ghostly flames from hell, floating in the air. As soon as the lotus flowers touched the soldiers’ bodies, they exploded like small bombs, instantly blowing up.
