Reverse War Surpass Immortal

However, they did not know that they had already entered the ambush set up by Duan Gujin and the Seventh Imperial Uncle.

Quickly, those bandits easily breached a city gate, and after they entered through that gate, they saw a large group of cavalry ahead.

Those bandits had anticipated such an outcome early on; they decisively threw iron thorns on the ground in front of them to prevent the cavalry from charging.

"Whiz whiz whiz whiz whiz whiz!"

However, the next moment, a rain of arrows frightened those bandits.

Those bandits that fell to the ground let out shrill screams of agony, knowing that they were certain to die that day.

"Kill!"

There were still many hot-blooded individuals among the bandits; they did not pay attention to their fallen comrades; they looked around for anything nearby that could block the arrows shot by the cavalry.

They glanced around their surroundings, but soon, they all fell into despair.

At that moment, their surroundings were completely empty, without anything to block the arrows fired by the cavalry.

In fact, there were originally some objects near that city gate that could have blocked the arrow rain for them.

But the Seventh Imperial Uncle had previously ordered the cavalry to dismantle all those objects.

Many bandits were shot by the cavalry's arrows and turned into porcupines, their eyes wide open, faces showing an unwillingness to die.

Seeing his subordinates suffering relentless hunting by the cavalry, the Great Leader of the bandits knew that they had fallen into the enemy's ambush.

"Although I had previously suspected this to be a trap, it is only now that I realize that this is not an ordinary army. In Country Gulai, such an army is definitely extraordinary!"

The Great Leader's mind raced; he carefully recalled the intelligence gathered today, now realizing that the information he had obtained in the last two days had been grossly inaccurate!

"In Country Gulai, one who could possess such a formidable army is definitely no ordinary person! It looks like I have met my match this time!"

The Great Leader remembered the reports from his subordinates, all of which claimed that the garrison here was undisciplined, completely lacking any military conduct.

It was precisely because of this that the Great Leader had regarded this army as garbage.

However, what he witnessed now made him realize that the reports from his subordinates must have been smokescreens deliberately released by this army.

He had been tricked!

The Great Leader felt sorrow and anger in his heart, and as he looked around, he realized that this time, the bandit gang he led was truly doomed.

Although he was extremely unwilling to accept this, he knew that the situation was irreversible, and it was impossible for him to turn the tide.

He took a deep breath, his body flashed, turning into a streak of light as he rapidly left the place, already deciding to abandon the bandits behind him.

"Where do you think you're going!"

However, just as the Great Leader was yet to escape, he found himself surrounded by the Seventh Imperial Uncle and his men.

When he clearly saw the Seventh Imperial Uncle's face, his expression drastically changed; he recognized who the person blocking his way was.

The Seventh Imperial Uncle furrowed his brows slightly and said, "I recognize you, you are Zhang Deming!"

Upon hearing the Seventh Imperial Uncle's call, the Great Leader was utterly terrified, his heart leaping violently, and then he strived to calm himself down, knowing what he had to do next.

"Who is he?"

Duan Gujin heard the Seventh Imperial Uncle shouting to the Great Leader, and it looked like the Seventh Imperial Uncle had recognized the other.

He quickly asked.

"A subordinate of Prime Minister Cao! I paid special attention to him in the past; I thought he had died, but I never expected that he was still alive!"

The Seventh Imperial Uncle urgently communicated telepathically.

Upon hearing the words of the Seventh Imperial Uncle, Duan Gujin suddenly saw the light.

"So it really is like this!"

He connected all the clues and deduced the ins and outs of the matter.

Previously, he might have had some difficulty judging.

But now, he could be certain that the one who had ordered the extermination of the Duan Family in the previous life was none other than Prime Minister Cao. Only he had the capability, and only he had sufficient reason to carry out the annihilation of the Duan Family.

"This Zhang Deming is extremely cunning! We cannot let him go back just like this!" the Seventh Imperial Uncle conveyed to Duan Gujin.

However, Duan Gujin had already lost all interest in whether they could capture or eliminate Zhang Deming.

Because he had identified the true culprit.

What was the most important thing to him?

The most important thing wasn't this Zhang Deming in front of him, but the true mastermind behind the scenes.

Now that he had guessed who the real mastermind was, that was enough.

Even if Zhang Deming escaped, it would not affect the overall situation.

Duan Gujin judged that the bandit group was nearly wiped out and could not possibly burst into the Capital City like in the previous life and annihilate the Duan Family.

Zhang Deming looked around and realized that their momentum was gone.

Only then did he know that he had encountered the personal soldiers of the Seventh Imperial Uncle, and he was clear about just how powerful the Seventh Imperial Uncle was.

Moreover, the reason the Seventh Imperial Uncle had been poisoned before was because he, Zhang Deming, had poisoned him.

He knew very well that if he were captured by the Seventh Imperial Uncle, his fate would be extremely miserable.

Furthermore, in case he was caught by the Seventh Imperial Uncle and used against Prime Minister Cao, then he believed that his family, controlled by Prime Minister Cao, would definitely be slaughtered.

This was the first time in his life that he had encountered such a dangerous situation, and he knew that if he could not escape, then the only option left would be to take poison and commit suicide.

"I have now become a turtle in a jar! Slaughtered at will!"

His heart began to throb violently.

He looked around for a while and soon he saw Duan Gujin.

After observing for a moment, he felt that Duan Gujin must be a rich young master, and one who could follow the Seventh Imperial Uncle must naturally have an extremely noble status.

He was curious about Duan Gujin's identity in his heart, but he immediately stopped thinking too deeply about it.

What he wanted now was to stay alive, not to figure out the identity of Duan Gujin.

Pick the soft persimmons to squeeze!

Thus, Zhang Deming's body flashed, turning into a streak of light, and rapidly rushed toward Duan Gujin.

"It seems that this young man should be some young master, I must capture him!"

Zhang Deming judged that Duan Gujin's strength must be very ordinary, and if he could capture Duan Gujin, he might be able to reverse the situation.

Seeing Zhang Deming charge toward him, Duan Gujin was overjoyed. He thought to himself, this is just perfect!

Duan Gujin took a deep breath, knowing he had to strike a fatal blow at the most opportune moment.

Very quickly, he saw Zhang Deming's body was less than ten meters away from him.

Then, his Demonized Martial Soul burst forth in an instant.

The powerful pressure caused a spatial distortion in the nearby Void, inflicting not only severe pain on the bodies of those caught in it, making it difficult to move, but also attacking their Divine Souls with his Demonized Martial Soul.

"How could this be?"
