C147

Helian Manqiu's gaze was clear and cold as she looked at Duan Zhanchen and said, "If I lose, you can capture me alive or make me have no ability to fight back. Just as you said, I'll kneel in front of your horse and surrender.

"Good, as expected of the son of Helian Shan. He has a bit of the courage of Helian Mountain. "All of you, leave. Tonight, this prince will fight with Helian Qingyu to see what abilities he has!"

"The young general …"

What was the meaning of that low voice? It whispered into Helian Manqiu's ear and let out a cry. Her gaze swept across the officers beside her. She wanted to see who could represent Helian Manqiu in this battle and fight Duan Zhan Chen.

Duan Zhanchen was the fifth prince of the Fresh Subordinate Tribe, a hero of the Fresh Subordinate Clan. His martial arts prowess was superb and he was rarely seen as an opponent. He knew that Helian Manqiu would definitely not be a match for him. However, as his gaze swept over the officers in the surroundings, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Most probably, none of them would be a match for Duan Zhan Chen.

Helian Manqiu did not lead the other generals to battle. Chen Yu Yang, Quan De and the rest were leading the troops to disturb the line of sight of the inferior people. They were dragging the troops sent out by the other inferior kings for Helian Manqiu.

"Duan Zhan Chen is a hero among those in low status. His martial arts are extremely powerful, and his strength surpasses others."

"I know."

Helian Manqiu lightly said. Sometimes, martial arts and strength could not determine everything, and she was not prepared to rely on brute force to defeat Duan Zhan.

"Young General, let this lowly general represent you."

At this moment, he returned to Helian Manqiu's side. Someone had given him a horse.

"No need, how can I go back on my promise?"

Helian Manqiu lightly said as she rushed forward. A look of admiration appeared in Duan Zhan Chen's eyes. Regardless of whether this young man in front of him was his opponent, to have the courage to exchange blows with him was already something he admired.

"Helian Qingyu, you have lost to this prince today. This prince will still treat you courteously."

"This general is only worried that after you lose, even if this general presents himself to you in the future, you won't be able to meet this general again!"

In terms of words, Helian Manqiu naturally would not lose to Duan Zhan Chen.

"What a sharp tongued young general. Let's see how your martial arts is going. Come at me. This prince will let you attack three moves first. I will give you three moves!"

Hearing Duan Zhan Chen's words, Helian Manqiu's heart skipped a beat. With a smirk, she said, "If within three moves, you were forced by me to retaliate or injure yourself, you would have lost."

"Haha, good, if in three moves you force me to fight back or injure me, this prince will admit defeat. Before you return to the Military Region from here, this prince and the light cavalry will no longer stop you, and they will appear in front of you!"

"Alright, the fifth prince should not make a mistake and become the laughing stock of the world."

"Don't worry, this prince will speak like a mountain and will not go back on his word. He will not be like the people of the Great Hengkong Empire, disloyal and disloyal!"

"If you fall, do you admit your loss?"

"Of course, if this prince falls, I admit defeat."

He had become one with the steed and did not believe that Helian Manqiu had the ability to knock him down from the steed. He had always been proud of his horse riding skills. How could he have thought that Helian Manqiu had a brilliant plan?

"In that case …"

Helian Manqiu spoke half a sentence before she suddenly moved like lightning. The Autumn Water Heaven Sword in her hand shot out like a bolt of lightning, piercing towards the space between Duan Zhan Chen's eyes.

Indeed, Duan Zhanchen did not retaliate. He only raised the saber in his hand to block Helian Manqiu's sword strike. His head slightly tilted to the side and he did not make a move to retaliate.

Unfortunately, Helian Manqiu's target was not Duan Zhan Chen, but his horse!

Although the Autumn Water Heaven Sword was sharp, it was still not enough to break Duan Zhan Chen's treasured blade. The light and elegant sword was far from being able to match up to Duan Zhan Chen's heavy saber.

Luckily, Duan Zhenchen had promised her that he would not let her retaliate in three moves. She could only use her saber to block the attack, not her attack.

The cold and dazzling sword light dazzled Duan Zhan Chen's eyes. Thus, he did not notice that as Helian Manqiu's steed and his horse crossed paths, she had extended her sinful little foot.

A sharp tip of a knife emerged from the bottom of the boot and stabbed into the horse's foreleg. It left a deep wound as it moved past the horse's foreleg. Three arrows shot out from her left wrist. She didn't care what method she used to win.

Towards a valiant boss like Duan Zhan Chen, she naturally wouldn't use a normal method to obtain victory. She had never cared about the methods or methods. What she cared about was the result, the result of her victory.

In order to stop Duan Zhan Chen, she shot out three sleeve arrows from her right wrist, aiming for his vitals. In order to stop Duan Zhan Chen, she shot out three sleeve arrows from her right wrist, aiming for his vitals.

Duan Zhan Chen would never have thought that there were concealed weapons inside of Helian Manqiu's boots that had injured his horse.

Seeing that three rays of cold light were shooting towards his vital parts, as well as the other three rays of cold light shooting towards his horse, he couldn't help but be flustered.

"A cunning and despicable person from the Central Plains!"

He cried out and hastily bent his body sideways under the horse, dodging the three sleeve arrows shot at him by Helian Manqiu. Despite his fast dodging, the three sleeve arrows were too close to him and still left a trail of blood on his body.

Thankfully, Duan Zhan Chen had seen Tao Tie requisition this kind of arrowhead before, so he was prepared in his heart.

The sabre fell from his hand and knocked away the two arrows that were shooting at the horse. In the end, one of the arrows hit the horse.

"Hiss …"

The horse that Duan Zhan Chen was sitting on started to scream in pain as it raised its hooves. Duan Zhan Chen tightly held onto the horse with one hand, almost falling off the horse.

It was also because of Duan Zhan Chen's outstanding horsepower that he was barely able to remain on the ground after using only one foot to hold the stirrup and the other hand to hold on to the saddle. However, when the horse's hooves fell to the ground, one of its front legs gave way and it fell to its knees.

How could Helian Manqiu miss such a great opportunity to turn around? She took the opportunity to turn around and ruthlessly stabbed the sword in her boot deep into the ribs of the horse. Under the ribs of Duan Zhan Chen's fine horse, she ruthlessly cut it with her toe, leaving behind a huge wound.

During this period of time, he had secretly learned horse techniques in the military region and had achieved quite a bit. This red colored horse was quite intelligent, and its speed was not fast, making it easy for it to catch up with Duan Zhan Chen's horse.

"Hiss …"

The horse that Duan Zhan Chen was sitting on let out a pitiful cry as it furiously jumped up from the ground. It jumped a few steps forward in a flustered and uneasy manner and then fell back down to the ground.

The wound on its foreleg and ribs was very heavy. The poison had already seeped into the body of this one in ten thousand fine steed. The horse could not hold on any longer.

The berserk state of the warhorse gave Duan Zhan Chen no time to react. He could only hold on to the saddle to keep his balance and not fall off the horse. Otherwise, he would lose.

This warhorse was the flesh and blood of Duan Zhan Chen. He valued it more than his lover. How could he be willing to let it go so easily?

Helian Manqiu wanted Duan Zhan Chen to not let go, and she wanted to take the opportunity to seriously injure him. If she could kill this 5th Prince, she naturally would not show mercy and let this old enemy go.

The horse galloped past Duan Zhan Chen's side, attacking him like a bolt of lightning.

"Swoosh …"

A sharp arrow shot out from behind Helian Manqiu, aiming straight for the center of Helian Manqiu's back. Seeing his master in danger, Duan Zhan Chen's men hurriedly shot out their arrows to stop Helian Manqiu.

Bending his body, he dodged the attack of the sword behind him. The Autumn Water Sword in his hand slashed out, slashing towards Duan Zhan Chen. If she didn't use this opportunity to attack Duan Zhan Chen, once she lost this opportunity, it would be difficult for her to injure him.

With great difficulty, Duan Zhan Chen lifted up the saber in his hand and swung it towards Helian Manqiu's sword.

"Duan Zhan Chen, this is only the second move!"

He grit his teeth and fiercely glared at Helian Manqiu. He looked at the sword in Helian Manqiu's hand piercing towards his ankle; if he did not use his blade, it was impossible for him to stop Helian Manqiu's treasured sword from stabbing or even breaking his ankle!

"Sou, sou, sou …"

A few arrows collided in the air and fell to the ground.

However, when they saw Duan Zhan Chen's subordinates shooting arrows at Helian Manqiu, they hurriedly pulled out their arrows and countered with them. The arrows from both sides clashed against each other and fell to the ground.

"Everyone stop!"

Duan Zhan Chen gritted his teeth as he spoke. His feet quickly moved away from the stirrup, avoiding Helian Manqiu's sword. With a backhand stroke, he fiercely slashed at the treasured sword in Helian Manqiu's hand.

The treasured sword in Helian Manqiu's hand lightly slid past Duan Zhan Chen's saber and quickly retracted the treasured sword. Even so, there was an intense pain coming from her palm and she almost lost her grip on the treasured sword.

She was already prepared, so she quickly grasped the sword with her left hand and used both hands to grip it tightly. She let go of her right hand and handed the sword to her left.

At this moment, Duan Zhan Chen finally landed below the fallen horse, landing on the ground and somersaulting to his feet. Of course, Helian Manqiu would not give Duan Zhan Chen any chance. She galloped towards him, the sword in her hand striking towards Duan Zhan Chen as she mercilessly shot out her sleeve arrow.

"Young General, come back, the fifth prince has already lost!"

Tao Zheng said in a worried voice. He was very clear about Duan Zhan Chen's martial arts and the fact that the young general couldn't reveal his injured legs in front of others. If he continued to fight with Duan Zhan Chen, he would definitely suffer a loss!

It was too late for Duan Zhan Chen to get up. He ran all the way through the sorry state of the ground while silently cursing in his heart. However, he had no choice but to dodge Helian Manqiu's horse hooves, sword, and arrows.

"Hehe, that's right. Duan Zhan Chen, are you admitting defeat?"
