Having children earns benefit, start competing for dominance in the world by marrying a wife

Facing the artillery of the North Country, the Tianqi King was completely infuriated; he grasped his axe, wanting to charge into the artillery camp and destroy all those cannons.

"You wretched mice of Great Xia, this king will exterminate all of you!!!"

While speaking, the Tianqi King headed straight for the artillery camp where Mu Jingwu was, but at that moment, countless cannonballs rained down upon him.

The Tianqi King immediately summoned his Protective Gang Qi to block the fragments of the cannonballs, yet the shockwaves generated by the explosions kept pushing him backwards.

Although the cannonballs had not caused any harm to his body for the time being, they prevented him from getting anywhere near the Great Xia artillery camp.

The expression on the Tianqi King's face became extremely twisted, his eyes filled with bloodshot rage as he desperately wanted to rush forward and chop down the people of Great Xia; however, the power of the cannonball explosions forced him to constantly deploy his Protective Gang Qi to defend, and he realized that the True Qi within him was depleting very quickly.

The explosive power of these cannons was already comparable to a Grandmaster's strike. Continuously using Gang Qi to fend off the "Grandmaster's" attack, the True Qi in his body was naturally draining rapidly. If this continued, it was very likely that he would die of exhaustion here.

At this moment, the Tianqi King gnashed his teeth and glared at the artillery camp not far away. His heart was unwilling to accept this; he had led hundreds of thousands of troops, not only facing defeat at the hands of the Da Yue Dynasty but now encountering such terrifying weaponry while attacking Great Xia.

How infuriating!

If he retreated like this, how could he ever stand his ground among the Barbarian Tribe in the future!

That woman would surely say it was because he disobeyed her order and acted on his own that led to their crushing defeat.

No! He absolutely couldn't just return like this!

With that thought, the Tianqi King gathered all his strength to move forward. He had already been targeted by a dozen or so cannons in the distance, however, and the bombardment rendered it impossible for him to advance a single step. The cannonballs from the North Country were not falling at a single point but were aimed within a range, with explosions continuously pushing him back.

The shockwaves from the explosions kept pushing him back, and he had to wastefully expend his skill on Protective Gang Qi, rendering his speed utterly incapable of picking up or breaking out of the bombardment zone.

At that time, Lu Chen, mounted on his horse, was also stunned by this spectacle.

He had just seen the Tianqi King easily withstand the bombardment of the cannonballs and thought that artillery was now useless against a Grandmaster, that artillery in the future could only deal with martial artists below the level of Grandmaster. He didn't anticipate that once Mu Jingwu and his team aimed their cannons at the Tianqi King, he would be completely unable to charge through.

So it turned out that cannons could still be used against Grandmasters; it's just that Grandmasters weren't so easily killed by them.

Seeing the Tianqi King resisting the exploding cannonballs in the bombardment area, Mu Changtian and the rest of the military generals once again sighed in admiration. The Grandmasters they once thought could stabilize a nation were now being bombarded by artillery, leaving them without the power even to strike back, forced to defend desperately just to survive.

When had a Grandmaster ever been so helpless!

Indeed, a Grandmaster was not so easily killed, but the True Qi within a Grandmaster's body was continuously being drained. If they couldn't be killed now, what about with even more cannonballs? They could wear a Grandmaster down to death with attrition!

Grandmasters are human too; they are not invincible. A single cannonball was almost equivalent to a Grandmaster's attack. With so many cannonballs, how long could a Grandmaster hold out?

Seeing the Tianqi King amidst the gunfire, nearly all the generals were silent at this moment, except for the soldiers from Mu Jingwu's Artillery camp who, like madmen, kept stuffing cannonballs into their artillery pieces, furiously bombarding the location of the Tianqi King.

The majority of the Artillery camp were ordinary soldiers. On any normal day, let alone a Grandmaster, even a fifth-ranked martial artist could easily crush them. But today, they were operating the artillery, pinning down a Grandmaster, and this made them uncontrollably excited.

After who knows how long, Chen Wanrong finally spoke to Lu Chen, "It's enough, tell your soldiers to cease fire. It's not that easy to kill a Grandmaster with your weapons."

The power of artillery was great, but killing a Grandmaster, one with Protective Gang Qi, through attrition wasn't going to happen in a moment's time.

To kill a Grandmaster, it's best for another Grandmaster to take action personally.

Hearing Chen Wanrong's words, Lu Chen asked, "Do you plan to take action to kill him?"

Chen Wanrong replied coolly, "If you don't want me to take action, I won't."

Lu Chen said with a smile, "No, I'm not saying I don't want you to act. I can't wait for you to do it personally. Although I am also a Grandmaster, I've never fought before; I don't have any battle experience."

With that, Lu Chen immediately said to the soldiers behind him, "Beat the drums, tell Mu Jingwu to stop bombarding the Tianqi King."

As the drum sounds echoed, Mu Jingwu was taken aback; he didn't expect to be ordered to cease fire so soon.

At that moment, the flames and smoke around the Tianqi King once again dispersed, and his figure emerged into view.

The Tianqi King held a colossal axe, and his body seemed to be radiating a crimson glow, indicating that he was extremely angry.

Seeing that the artillery had stopped, the Tianqi King thought that the North Country's cannonballs had been depleted. He stamped hard on the ground with both feet, and his body shot like a cannonball towards Mu Jingwu's artillery camp. But at that moment, a cold glint struck, and the Tianqi King quickly leaned back to dodge the sword light.
