Chapter 337 – Hua s.h.i.+'s Crisis

While Yuan Shu and Liu Yang were partying inside the main camp, Hua s.h.i.+ and her 200 escorts rushed out of the county, escaping from the conflict and the two otherworlders .

As Hua s.h.i.+ was an angel with two wings, she detected a similar aura coming from Sun Fang and Li Jing . Though her power was superior to theirs, she could not do anything in this situation . As many eyes and dangerous generals were nearby, she could not risk herself by trying to kill anyone in there .

Furthermore, it was a situation where she had to deal with two otherworlders at the same time . She had no confidence that she could come out unscratched .

Completing the job and keeping her life took priority!

'That was close . From their looks, they should have also detected my power . Friday said they were Sun Fang and Li Jing, and their main cheats are cultivation and shadow teleportation . I can't fight them with my archery alone . '

Two days later, after Hua s.h.i.+ left Li County, he reached Wan City . Without stopping to resupply, she and her escorts galloped through the territory, heading northeast toward Xuchang .

Once Hua s.h.i.+ could get to Xuchang, proceeding toward Ye City would be more comfortable .

Unfortunately, she could not go far as an army without a banner was blocking her path .

Hua s.h.i.+ glanced at her skill list and activated one of the skills that she obtained from Tong by dual-cultivation, the radar map .

The map showed hidden troops of 5,000 soldiers in this vicinity . Also, the leading commander of this army possessed a strong aura of one wing immortal .

The name of this person put Hua s.h.i.+ on her toes .

Pang De

.

In the other world's historical timeline, Pang De served Ma Teng and Ma Chao . His first major successful campaign was in the year 202 when Cao Cao and Ma Teng were still in the same alliance .

During this year, Cao Cao was cleaning the northern provinces by waging war against Yuan Shao's sons, Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang .

Yuan Tan ordered his men to attack Hedong County, which located north of Hongnong City, the opposite side of the Yellow River .

In response, Cao Cao sent Zhong Yao to conscript soldiers from Ma Teng's Liang Province, so they could repel this sudden invasion toward the central plain and Hongnong City .

Ma Teng received the SOS request from his ally and sent Ma Chao and Pang De to the battle .

Amid the combat, Pang De slew Guo Yuan, a general under Yuan Tan and Zhong Yao's nephew . He took Guo Yuan's head without realizing about the relations.h.i.+p between them and gave it to Zhong Yao later .

Upon realizing their relations.h.i.+p, Pang De immediately apologized to Zhong Yao, but the latter did not mind it . He said, "Even though Guo Yuan was my nephew, he was an enemy of the state . Why do you apologize?"

Ma Teng appointed Pang De into General of Household later for his contribution, and the military road of Pang De began from there .

In 211, Pang De and Ma Chao were defeated by Cao Cao Army . Both of them sought refuge under Zhang Lu in Hanzhong and became Zhang Lu's subordinate in exchange for their safety .

In 215, Ma Chao betrayed Zhang Lu and joined forces with Liu Bei, who seized control of Yi Province from Liu Zhang . Pang De remained with Zhang Lu, but they surrendered to Cao Cao in the same year when Cao Cao's forces reached Hanzhong .

Around 219, a rebellion broke out in Wan City . Cao Cao sent Cao Ren and Pang De to quell the uprising, and they had to defend the areas from the possible southern army, led by Guan Yu .

After Pang De finished off the rebels, they garrisoned in Fancheng (Fan Castle) .

Because Pang De was a former subordinate of Ma Chao, soldiers suspected in Pang De that he might rebel and join Liu Bei like his old master .

Pang De was angry by the insult . He promised his men that he would bring Guan Yu's head to prove his loyalty to Cao Cao .

In one of the battles, Pang De fired an arrow and successfully hit Guan Yu's helmet . However, in the novel version, Pang De hit Guan Yu's arm .

Guan Yu became wary of Pang De ever since . He remembered this person as the White Horse General as Pang De often rode on a white horse to battle, just like Gongsun Zan .

Later that year, heavy rain turned the terrains in Jing Province into swamps and mud land and flooded Fan Castle . Pang De gathered his men to the top of a dam, retreating from the battle . However, Guan Yu raided them with his wars.h.i.+ps and managed to capture Pang De after half a day of intense fighting .

Guan Yu persuaded Pang De to join Liu Bei like Ma Chao, but Pang De refused . Having no choice, Guan Yu executed Pang De at Fan Castle .

Throughout Pang De's life, he did not obtain many victories like other famous generals like Zhang Liao or Zhang He . However, he was one of Cao Cao's generals who could terrify Guan Yu in a duel and close combat . Though his command ability was not on par with other elites, no one could look down on his prowess in battle .

Extra noteworthy, Pang De's son, Pang Hui, managed to avenge for his father in the later years of the Three Kingdoms Period . In 263 AD, Pang Hui partic.i.p.ated conquest of Shu Han . He slaughtered all family members of Guan Yu and his descendants, ending Guan Yu's bloodline .

.

Now, Hua s.h.i.+ was facing a sudden ambush by this combat specialist with angel power . She hesitated if she wanted to fight him now, or should she pretend to surrender .

'How did he get that power!? It was supposed to be the privilege of all otherworlders!'

Hua s.h.i.+ could not believe her eyes and her sense . The angelic power coming from Pang De was real, but the logic behind it was baffling .

'Did Xiongnu King bribe Lilim? s.h.i.+t, Tong just did something to the lifespans in the clan pool . Is it possible to bribe Lilim into awakening local people here as well?'

Being helpless, Hua s.h.i.+ typed into the clan chat .

Hua s.h.i.+: "I'm being ambushed in Wan . Pang De is attacking me . "

Hua s.h.i.+: "He has a wing! How the fudge did he get it!?"

Tong: "Khan probably did the same with what I just did . "

Tong: "I just bribed Lilim to give Zhang He and Zhang Liao a chance to awaken their wings . "

Tong: "I think Khan can do the same . "

Tong: "BTW, do you think you can win or escape?"

Hua s.h.i.+: "Not possible . I have 200 men with me, but Pang De has 5,000 . "

Li Feihong: "It will take me a day to teleport there and another day to get you out of that place . "

Li Feihong: "Sister-in-law, can you pretend to surrender to buy times? Try to avoid the disadvantageous fight . "

Tong: "I agree . Pretend to surrender . As long as you are alive, we will know what Khan and his Xiongnu are doing . "

Hua s.h.i.+: "Great, my life is in peril, and you all want me to be your spy?"

Tong: "No, I just want to ensure your safety . "

Li Feihong: "We will rescue you in two days . Please be patient . "

Hua s.h.i.+'s despair turned into anger as she did not like how calm Tong and Li Feihong were . Her life was in jeopardy, but they did not feel the urgency of the situation .

In reality, Tong and Li Feihong worried about Hua s.h.i.+ . As they had been through thick and thin from wars and conflicts, Tong and Li Feihong's mental strength was stronger than her, and they could stay calm regardless of pressure .

Hua s.h.i.+ did not partic.i.p.ate in many battles, so she lacked experiences in handling the pressure . As a result, she lost her cool, and her face flushed in frustration .

Meanwhile, Pang De ignored about Hua s.h.i.+'s existence or her escorts . He bellowed, "Zhang Tong's dogs, drop your weapons and surrender!"

"Grr . "

Being called a dog was unpleasant to the escort soldiers . As a result, none of them cared if they had to die today .

Moreover, these 200 soldiers knew that they were protecting the first wife of their young master, so surrendering could spell a fate more horrifying than death to Hua s.h.i.+ .

Hua s.h.i.+ bellowed, "Screw you all! Kill!"

With bloodshot eyes, they pulled out their pistols and aimed at the nearest soldiers .

"To the death!"

"We are servants of immortals! We won't surrender!"

"For the immortals!"

*BANG*

*BANG*

*BANG*

*BANG*

Two hundred guns unleashed their power, firing at any ambus.h.i.+ng soldiers they could find .

The Xiongnu soldiers of Pang De were hit by bullets and were shocked . As none of them had experienced about firearms, they thought that all escorts used sorceries on them .

Hua s.h.i.+ also took out her bows and summoned her two virtue souls . Each of them wielded a bow and activated her iconic skill, Homing Arrows .

With a stroke of bowstrings, hundreds of magic arrows headed toward Pang De alone!

The targeted man remained indifferent .

"Hah!"

With a roar, Pang De gathered his virtuous aura within his body and his axes . He did not parry them or try to stop the arrows . Instead, he stood still and watched all light arrows befall on him .

*PU*

*PU*

*PU*

*PU*

All arrows did not penetrate his skins . Betraying Hua s.h.i.+'s expectation, all bolts only caused superficial wounds, but they could not get through his muscles .

At this moment, Hua s.h.i.+ remembered a part of Friday's teaching .

[All skills in this world have a limitation . When you're up against a real demon or angel, you won't be able to use these skills to fight them . If they don't summon their souls out of their body, but they gather their aura instead, no system cheats in this world can harm them . ]

Hua s.h.i.+ clicked her tongue in resentment . She blamed herself for being reckless and foolish for letting an outburst like that . Now, their chance of survival was getting lower each second .

'To kill an angel or a demon, one must use their own strength . '

Hua s.h.i.+ recited Friday's teaching in her mind as she summoned all her souls back . Once they entered her body, two white tentacle wings spread from her back .

The sight of celestial wings astonished the Xiongnu . Now, they finally realized that they were fighting against a real immortal .

Yet, Pang De smiled .

'It's as the princess said . We found one of the immortals . '

Pang De reported his finding to his clan chat right away .

Pang De: "I found an otherworlder . It's one of Zhang Tong's dogs . "

Pang De: "He's a eunuch, though . "

Liu Yang: "That might be either Hua s.h.i.+ or Xiao Wu . Be cautious, either of them is stronger than you . "

Pang De gazed at the sweating Hua s.h.i.+ . He smirked as he did not believe in Liu Yang .

'That eunuch is a rookie . I can kill her at any time . '
