Chapter 1021: The Flames Of War (3)
Outside the Free Valley, 25 Terminators from the Kingdom of Fu Xiang were lined up in a row, backed by a ma.s.sive army of energetic soldiers.
The oldest of the 25 Terminators was just over the age of 30, while the rest of them were in their late twenties. As Terminators, they had achieved countless victories and this was the first time they were pitted against human adversaries. Those Terminators all expected this battle to be a cinch.
“What kind of powerful pract.i.tioner could live in a place like the Free Valley? Shi Dakai has gotten old and useless. It was prime time he endured such a defeat.” One terminator had crossed his arms over his chest arrogantly.
“His Majesty is cautious and respectful of that old general. Otherwise, why would he send such a major force over such a minor issue?”
“I heard that there’s a Forest of Freedom inside the Free Valley, full of valuable treasures. Let’s visit this forest after taking down Hua Xia. We might find some quality stuff.”
“Naturally, I already had the same idea.”
The battle had yet to begin and that bunch of Terminators were already dividing up the spoils of the war.
Their presumptuous words were all overheard by Shi Dakai, who turned up his nose at their smug overconfidence.
They had stationed the army outside the Free Valley for a while but did not detect any movement within. A few Terminators started getting impatient and were just preparing to take action when they suddenly spotted a pure white figure slowly walking out of the valley.
A delicate-looking teenage girl wearing a long, white robe was riding upon a white deer. Her moist, red lips were curved in a smile as she gradually made her way closer.
The appearance of that girl had the group of Terminators somewhat dumbfounded.
“What’s happening? Could it be that the Kingdom of Hua Xia is trying out some kind of seduction tactic? Haha?”
The group spoke in amused tones, but all felt rather incredulous. Sending out a teenage girl at the start of a battle—it was a right joke.
“Hey! Young lady, are you from the Kingdom of Hua Xia? Is there no one else left to fight for your nation? Sending a frail young lady like you to battle for them?” One terminator sneered at the lonely figure of Ji Fengyan.
Shi Dakai was also discreetly observing this teenage girl. Suspicion flashed across his eyes. This girl looked somewhat familiar, but at that moment, he could not recall her origins.
The white deer stopped right before the entrance of the Free Valley. The youthful girl lifted her head slightly and gazed smilingly at the ma.s.sive army.
A gentle and soothing voice drifted out of her mouth.
“I am the queen of the Kingdom of Hua Xia. I have specially come to answer your call to battle.”
Hearing that sweet, girlish voice, the Fu Xiang men were all stunned.
It had been rumored that a woman ruled the Kingdom of Hua Xia and was the only female ruler in this world. However, no one could confirm that news.
Now that the queen had actually appeared before them, the congregation started laughing.
“That can’t be right? You are the queen of the Kingdom of Hua Xia? Haha… I say, young lady, you must be joking?” One of the Terminators was laughing so hard that he was nearly crying. There was no way he would believe that the ruler of the Free Valley was this fragile-looking teenage girl.
She was probably just 15 to 16 years of age?
