Next, Zhou Ping'an clearly understood why Lan Qi and Bai Sheng had to go out and fight a battle.
They were indeed afraid of being killed.
From atop the city wall, Zhou Ping'an saw Lan Qi enveloped in lightning all around him, his sabre light tearing through heaven and earth, but it couldn't slice through Xue Mingyu's skin.
It only managed to make that General Mingyu spit a small mouthful of golden blood and nothing else came of it.
He was turned to ashes by a spear thrust from a young general who arrived riding the wind, so fast that only a fiery silhouette was seen.
No sign of golden bricks or circles either.
Before that fiery silhouette appeared, the first thing to emerge was a barrel-sized bolt of Purple Thunder in the sky.
Lightning used to counteract lightning.
Struck by it, Lan Qi was charred on the outside and tender on the inside, petrified in place, then pierced by a spear, engulfed by Golden Flames, and immediately reduced to ashes.
