Martial Research Master

Chapter 145



“I am deeply regretful about reporting the untimely death of the commanders. The assassin involved in this event will not go unpunished. We will be appointing the next in the line officer as the commander of their respective battalion.”

“We can’t let the soldiers loose moral. We will be proceeding with the plan. The attack occurs tonight.”

“Do we have any idea regarding the assassin who carried out the kill.” One of the commanders asked.

“It was the blood general.”

A deep silence permeated the whole space. The blood general was genuinely bad news for them.

..........................................................................................???.......

The Crimson lord world-

“Are you going to confront him?” The Keeper remembered the last fight between the two figures. Long Tao was in the Qi master realm when he first met the figure.

.....

The Blood general was at the sixth level of Qi general realm. He was forced to escape from his opponent’s due to the difference in power. The only reason he was able to win was because of the Slytherin. The Blood general would have killed the beast, and get a hold of him.

It was due to the lack of structural integrity within the cave that Long Tao was able to demolish it.

“He managed to survive the collapse. The last time we met, you said his cultivation talent is quite high. What do you expect his realm to be as of now?”

“The talent shown by him was quite incredible. Hs bloodline strength was also an astonishing factor. The last fight with the Slytherin must have provided him with some insights into cultivation.”

“It wouldn’t be a surprise if he had broken through the seventh or even eighth level of Qi general.”. Long Tao was surprised to hear that.

An eighth level Qi general wasn’t something he could confront with his current power. He would need to use the ‘demonization’. There was no other alternative. “We need to come up with a plan. I have a conjecture that the guy’s bloodline is similar to yours. It can absorb other bloodline and enhance its power.”

“The last time you fought, I did sense a similar aura between you two.” Long Tao was shocked to hear this. How can the Keeper hide this fact until now?

“You said the art I practice is too precious. How can there be another person in this place who practices the same art.”. Long Tao was waiting for the Blood Tempering method to unlock some characteristic skills but was proven wrong.

“What if the art you hold in your mind is just a part of the whole manual.” Long Tao had this presumption for a long time.

“Are you saying that he holds the other set of the art.”.

“He might have come across the same opportunity as you. But the part he has with him is the other one.”

...............................................................

The mountains-

“You can’t agree with his proposal. It’s too dangerous out there. He will kill you. The military can’t afford to lose you.” S Menqi knew about the Blood general’s power.

“The commanders present here can’t confront him. I have a conjecture that Unrivalled will be attacking the mountain regions after he gets confirmation of the fight between the blood General and me. You need to lead the forces in here.”

“I am going with you.” Su Menqi was quite persistent with her demands.

“The stakes here are quite high. We can’t afford to lose our footing in here. I will take care of the Blood general.” Once the army lost the camp within the mountains, they would need to retreat to their base camp. The scene with the Chu country would repeat itself.

“The best way to confront an army within the mountain regions is to do surprise attacks. Don’t rush into the battle. Start by expanding your control over the mountain regions. Guerrilla warfare would be the mode of war.”

“Unrivalled is someone who has controlled this region for a long time. Even if we switch to Guerrilla warfare, the loss would be quite huge against someone who knows the terrain better than us.”

“The initial loss is something we need to way. We aren’t an omnipotent army. You need to pay the price to achieve something. The soldiers who died until know was the price I paid to achieve this feat.” Long Tao asked Su Menqi to follow him.

.........................................................

A map of the mountain regions was laid out. Three areas were marked on the map. Two of them were the sites occupied by the two enemies. The third area was the uncaptured zone.

” The spies I sent have been stationed with the uncaptured zone. Your work is to capture it slowly. The only way to do it in ana efficient way would be during the night.”

Once the neutral zone had been captured, the Jiao army would have greater control over the mountain regions. Long Tao instructed Su Menqi to set some bases in these regions.

” You can then proceed to confront the enemy within his region. The approach should be alike to what I did earlier, if not better. The layout of the attack would be left to you.”

Long Tao proceeded to leave but was pulled back by Su Menqi. She threw herself in his arms and whispered in his ears. ” You have to come back alive. I will be waiting for your arrival.” She raised her head and kissed Long Tao on his lips. The moment lasted for some time.

” I promise to return.”

................................................???.......

The Chu army camp-

” Should I send back-up in case something unforeseen happens.” Unrivalled appreciated Long Tao’s capability from their last meeting. But the current situation had them as the enemy of each other. He was a threat that needs to be eliminated.

” I won’t be needing any back-up. I can take care of the situation myself.” The blood general was co0nfident in his abilities.

........................................

Somewhere within the forest regions-

A bright patch of land was present in this area. A figure was standing on this location, in wait for someone.

” I didn’t expect you to arrive before the decided time.” The blood-general spoke out.

” I couldn’t resist the attraction of getting to fight my old foe once more.” Long Tao instantly took out his sword and sabre.

The fight was about to begin soon.
