You Say You Believe in Science, But You Fly on a Sword - Chapter 11
Chapter 11: Luring The Tiger Away From The Mountain
In the Bermuda Triangle, elders from various factions anxiously awaited their juniors.
“What’s going on? It’s been so long, and no one has come out? ”
“Who knows? Maybe the battle inside is quite intense? ”
“I wonder which faction we’ll be facing this year…”
…
Destiny Realm, China Command Tower.
Xie Yingqing quickly observed the current situation of China’s squads.
The fifth, eighth, and thirteenth squads had been completely annihilated, withdrawing from the Destiny Realm. Other squads suffered varying degrees of losses.
The annihilation of the thirteenth squad, in particular, indicated that the battle at the Right Deceleration Tower had reached a fever pitch; even the squads guarding the tower had suffered complete losses.
“Everyone, immediately retreat within China, following the routes I’ve given you! ”
“First Squad, run east, and return after circling three mountains! ”
“Third Squad, there’s a lake five li south; go hide there, then return from the east! ”
“Fourteenth, fifteenth, and seventeenth squads, abandon the Deceleration Tower and immediately evacuate to the Command Tower! ”
“Eighth…”
Su Qin’an was not in a hurry, smiling as he watched Xie Yingqing command from the side.
Without Dao Jingtaro reporting locations, and with Xie Yingqing’s command, all of China’s squads quickly returned to the Safe Zone.
“First, second, third, and fourth squads, go to the Right Deceleration Tower and activate the Teleportation Array! ”
Seeing the opportune moment, Xie Yingqing said: “Twelfth and fourteenth squads, go to the Left Deceleration Tower. Don’t engage them; wait for my command to activate the Teleportation Array. Sixth, ninth, eleventh, and eighteenth squads return to the Command Tower to guard it. Sound the alarm if there’s any situation! Those who desert their posts will be immediately executed! ”
“Let’s go! ”
Xie Yingqing said: “Those people from Japan were badly beaten; there won’t be any more problems this time! ”
“Let’s go! ”
Su Qin’an said: “With so many people, there definitely won’t be any problems! Now what we need to do is retake the Deceleration Towers and then directly attack the opponent’s Command Tower! ”
Right Deceleration Tower, Wu Shi looked at the increasing number of China cultivators and let out a cold laugh.
“A rabble! Not even a single Condensation Core Triple Stage! ”
Saying this, he signaled his squad to activate the Deceleration Tower’s protective Formation: “Once our main force arrives, you’ll all die! ”
Suddenly, the space not far from the bottom of the Deceleration Tower trembled, and a young couple emerged from within.
“Hmm? Condensation Core Sixth Stage? ” Wu Shi finally showed signs of apprehension: “Are they the opposing Commander-in-Chief? ”
Daojian Sect Saintess Xie Yingqing and Daojian Sect First True Disciple Su Qin’an, he had heard of these two people’s names a long time ago.
Their cultivation base and strength, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to call them the leaders of China’s younger generation.
“But just the two of you, you think you can break the Deceleration Tower’s Formation? ” Wu Shi sneered: “In ten minutes, if you can’t break the Formation, you’re the ones who’ll be finished! ”
Su Qin’an ignored him, his body flickering as he arrived before the Deceleration Tower.
Then, within four breaths of time, the Deceleration Tower’s Formation…
Disappeared.
That’s right, it just disappeared.
Su Qin’an was proficient in Formations. Although he hadn’t seen Destiny Realm Formations before, as long as it was a Formation, there were always patterns, and breaking them wasn’t difficult.

“You…”
Wu Shi was so scared he almost dropped his Long Sword: “How is that possible! Are you cheating?!”
Su Qin’an ignored him, simply waving his hand to signal the other China cultivators to attack.
He and Xie Yingqing then used the Teleportation Array to directly go to the Left Deceleration Tower.
There were only a dozen or so people in the Deceleration Tower. Even if their cultivation bases were higher, how could they fight against more than thirty people?
The Left Deceleration Tower was also broken very easily. In three breaths of time, Su Qin’an broke its protective Formation. The remaining China cultivators swarmed forward, turning the Japan and Kimchi Nation cultivators inside into a mess.
“Everyone, advance at full speed into enemy territory! First Squad follows me, Seventh Squad follows Su Qin’an, the rest attack the Command Tower directly! ”
Dao Jingtaro looked at the sand table in the Command Tower, watching the blue Points of Light rapidly disappearing on it and the red Points of Light approaching the Command Tower, his fists clenched.
“Damn it, how dare they…”
Dao Jingtaro clenched his fists: “Quickly notify the people at the Deceleration Towers to come and support! ”
Upon hearing that the Command Tower was under siege, the people from the two Deceleration Towers, without a word, left a squad to guard the towers and rushed towards the Command Tower.
“Go! ”
After confirming that they had gone far enough, Su Qin’an, with the Seventh Squad, instantly broke the Deceleration Tower’s protective Formation and occupied the Deceleration Tower.
［Detected Host breaking the enemy Deceleration Tower Formation within three seconds, gaining 200 Experience Points］
Xie Yingqing actually used a Luring the Tiger Away from the Mountain strategy!
How could the Japan cultivators, who scoffed at ancient China’s Military Strategy, understand its intricacies?
On the other side, Xie Yingqing and her squad also occupied a Deceleration Tower.
Although Xie Yingqing couldn’t break the Formation as quickly as Su Qin’an in three breaths of time, she could fight!
Moon Slash, Myriad Phenomena Attraction, Horizontal Fen River Path…
She used various Arcane Arts at will; if one attempt failed, she’d try twice, always managing to break through.
It was just a matter of consuming some time.
Command Tower, Dao Jingtaro hadn’t had time to breathe a sigh of relief when he received news of the Deceleration Tower being attacked.
Before he could get angry, he saw on the sand table that the blue Deceleration Tower had turned red…
This meant the Deceleration Tower had been occupied.
“Damn it! What kind of tactic is this! These China good-for-nothings, they dare not engage me in a fair duel between warriors, but only dare to use such underhanded tactics?!”
He didn’t have time to get angry.
Because just as the people from the two Deceleration Towers arrived, the China cultivators also arrived. For a time, there were actually four to five hundred people surrounding a small Deceleration Tower.
“You should surrender! ”
Su Qin’an and Xie Yingqing led their troops, using the Teleportation Array to arrive: “If you don’t surrender, there’s only death awaiting you! ”
“Hahahaha! ”
Dao Jingtaro on the Command Tower, however, had a calm and composed look: “Don’t you think you’ve already won? ”
“You can try. ”
Xie Yingqing said coldly: “Those who harbor evil intentions towards China cultivators are destined to pay the Price! ”
“Nonsense! War is inherently a matter of life and death; we don’t kill you, does that mean you won’t kill us? ” Dao Jingtaro shouted: “There’s an old saying in your country: ‘Mountains and rivers seem to block the way, but willows shade the path ahead! ’”
Saying this, he grasped his left hand in the Void.
Su Qin’an immediately felt a dangerous Aura and instinctively shielded Xie Yingqing.
Xie Yingqing was just about to use Scattered Willow Shadow when she felt her field of vision suddenly blocked by half. When she saw Dao Jingtaro again, he already had a two-meter-long halberd in his hand.
The halberd emitted a golden light all over its body, and the blade tip emitted a faint chill. Even Dao Jingtaro himself was bathed in a layer of golden light.
A halo spread from his side in all directions, carrying an extremely terrifying Aura, causing those around him to retreat repeatedly, regardless of friend or foe.
Even Xie Yingqing and Su Qin’an were knocked back three steps by the halo.
Outside the Destiny Realm, the halo also stirred up considerable ripples.
“This is… the Sakura Empire’s Imperial Halberd? How dare they! ”
“Japan actually dared to let their Disciple bring the Imperial Halberd inside! Aren’t they afraid of being robbed and murdered? ”
“I wonder whose Disciple is so strong that they forced the Japan Disciple to use the Imperial Halberd! ”
