Xue Rengui was just at the peak of Qi transformation. He knew that even if he was very accomplished in archery, he could not resist the Turkic master in black robes and holding a mace under the city!
According to his estimation, this person is at least a master at the peak of the master level. Only Li Zexuan can resist it, so he asked this question!
"The Marquis was seriously injured and fell into coma. He is currently being treated in a quiet place!"
Lu Xianda replied in a low voice.
Xue Rengui's heart suddenly sank. On the one hand, he was a little worried about Li Zexuan's injury. On the other hand, he was worried about the city defense in front of him!
Obviously, he didn't think that this seemingly tall and heavy city gate could withstand Wu Jie's full attack!
Below the city tower, Wu Jie once again deflected the three arrows shot by Xue Rengui. Although his speed was a little slower, he was already within five feet of the city gate! From this position, it would be difficult for the archers on the tower to shoot him!
Five feet, four feet, three feet, two feet, one foot!
In just a few breaths, Wu Jie finally flew to the city gate. The majestic Qi that had been accumulated in his arms exploded. The lightning flashed on the mace again. Wu Jie held the mace's handle with both hands. At the end, he raised it above his head. Continuing with the previous speed, he raised the mace and struck hard towards the city gate!
"Bang~!"
The mace collided with the heavy iron city gate, and immediately made a deafening sound, as if it was about to pierce the night sky. At the same time, the powerful counterattack force was transmitted to Wujie through the mace, and Wujie He was shocked and flew backwards!
On top of the city tower, Xue Rengui, Hong Wenxing, Fang Gongteng, Lu Xianda and others felt the tower shaking under their feet, and the huge impact sound was almost piercing their eardrums. Those with weaker skills couldn't help but cover their ears. Ears, but the corners of many people's mouths have already overflowed with blood. This shows how terrifying Wu Jie's full blow is!
But these are not critical. The most critical thing now is the condition of the city gate! If the city gate is broken, the Tang army on the city wall will face merciless massacre by the Turkic wolf cavalry. On the contrary, if the city gate is not broken, it is entirely possible for Fang Gongteng and Hong Wenxing to hold out until reinforcements from other places arrive!
"Damn it! How dare this boy ruin the affairs of our country's division!"
If anyone could see the situation of the city gate immediately, it was Wu Jie!
Wu Jie was directly shaken by the powerful force that bounced back from the city gate for more than twenty feet before he could barely stabilize his body. After all, the effects of force are reciprocal. How much force did his mace exert on the city gate? , the city gate will bounce back to the mace with much force. After Wu Jie stabilized his body, he saw that the city gate of Longmen Pass was crumbling and shaking for a while, but it did not collapse completely. He couldn't help but glance at Xue Rengui on the tower with an ugly look, and whispered hatefully!
According to his previous charging speed, this stick filled with all his energy would have no problem knocking on the city gate of Longmen Pass. However, Xue Rengui's two consecutive three-arrow bursts slowed down his speed by two seconds. points, the impact force attached to the mace is naturally weakened by two points, so although the city gate of Longmen Pass is crumbling and swaying twice, it has not collapsed. In this way, if Xue Rengui hadn't suddenly appeared, It's really possible that the city gate of Longmen Pass could be blown open by Wu Jie's stick!
"It's not broken! Join the army and the city gate is not broken!"
In the Tang Army camp, soldiers soon went down to inspect the city gate. When they found that the gate was not broken, they quickly went up to the city tower to report to Fang Gongteng and Hong Wenxinghui.
"It's not broken...that's good!"
Fang Gongteng nodded with lingering fear. Wu Jie's stick blow just now still makes him feel lingering fear. At that time, he could feel the city wall shaking under his feet. Now that he knew that the city gate had not been broken, he couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. .
However, the next words of the soldier who sent the order made Fang Gongteng no longer happy, "Join the army, the city gate is shaking a bit, I guess it won't be able to withstand Wu Jie's second attack!"
"What……?"
Fang Gongteng almost vomited blood. After a moment of depression, he quickly ordered: "Quick! Send people to reinforce the city gate! Pile all the heavy objects behind the city gate to prevent Wu Jie from successfully breaking through!"
"Yes! Join the army!"
The soldier who delivered the order clasped his fists in agreement, then turned and left.
…………………………
"Master Marquis, if nothing happens to you, how can those Turks show off their power in our land of the Tang Dynasty? Get well soon, and nothing will happen to you!"
On the other side, in the cellar below Longmen Pass.
Doctor Liu also heard the loud noise when the Wujie Rod struck the city gate earlier. He stood up and looked at Li Zexuan, who had his eyes closed on the straw couch, and murmured to himself anxiously.
He himself is not afraid of death, but he is worried that after the Turkic army breaks through the city gate, it will not only burn, kill, and loot the nearby villages, causing a loss of life, but he is also worried that the Turkic army will launch a carpet search, find this place and capture Li Zexuan!
At this time, Li Zexuan was completely powerless. If he was discovered by the Turks, he would have no ability to resist at all!
That's why Doctor Liu was secretly anxious at this time.
As for Li Zexuan, Li Zexuan's situation was not very good at this time. During the previous battle with Wu Jie, a change occurred in his body. In a very short period of time, he quickly recovered 60% of his true energy, but this was only a recovery of true energy. The injuries caused by the powerful thunder and lightning in Wu Jie's body have not been recovered, and when he fired the last sword "Return to the Sect" against Wu Jie, he not only exhausted the little bit of Qi he had just recovered, but also It also aggravated the internal injuries!
His internal organs were displaced due to the powerful Qi of Wu Jie, and the remaining thunder and lightning power in his meridians took the opportunity to crazily wreak havoc on his eight extraordinary meridians when he took action, making his current situation even worse. !
The trace of "spiritual energy of heaven and earth" in his body before could not create another miracle now. Instead, it fell completely silent without any movement.
It's just that Li Zexuan was not completely unconscious. He could hear what was going on outside, but he couldn't open his eyes or open his mouth, just like a living dead with only a little sense of life left!
Li Zexuan knew that the Turks were attacking Longmen Pass, and he also knew that Longmen Pass was about to be unable to hold on. He knew all this, and he was very anxious, but he was powerless. He exhausted all his strength and could not move a finger. Forget about opening your eyes, getting out of bed and fighting!
It would be great if Sun Simiao was here at this time! Because Lao Sun is not only a master of medicine, but also has pure Taoist inner strength in his body, which is extremely beneficial for repairing the injuries in his body!

"No! The witchcraft is here again!"
On top of the city tower, Xue Rengui's expression changed and he said urgently.
But it was Wu Jie who was under the city tower. At this time, he mounted another war horse and planned to repeat his old trick and attack the city gate again!
"Fire the arrow! Fire the arrow quickly! Prepare to roll rocks and logs. In a moment, as long as Wu Jie gets close to the city gate, he will push them all down!"
Fang Gongteng's face suddenly became extremely ugly. The city gate of Longmenguan became shaky after being bombarded by Wu Jie. If Wu Jie's second stick knocked down, how could the city gate withstand it?
"Yes! Join the army!"
Wu Jie's bravery also made the soldiers on the city tower a little scared, but they were soldiers, and they had the instinct to obey orders in their bones. After hearing Fang Gongteng's instructions, everyone cheered up, overcame the fear in their hearts, and headed towards In the direction Wu Jie was running, he bent his bow and arrows again and launched an attack!
Xue Rengui was not idle either. He raised the big iron bow in his hand again, stringed the arrows, and then drew it to full length. With a "whoosh" sound, an arrow shot through the air and flew rapidly towards Wu Jie.
Xue Rengui continued to string, draw and fire the bow without stopping. All actions were done in one go. After three arrows were shot out in succession, he paused for a moment and took a deep breath!
Even though it was easy to shoot these three arrows, only he knew how much Qi it would take to shoot these three arrows for him who only had the Qi Transformation realm! He felt that he would be exhausted if he could only shoot three more arrows at most!
Wu Jie, who was at the bottom of the city, easily deflected Xue Rengui's three arrows with his mace. Although his forward speed was a little slower, he was only about ten feet away from the city gate!
From this position, if he took a few steps forward, it would be difficult for the people on the tower to shoot him!
Xue Rengui took a breath, jumped directly, and stood on the side wall of the city tower. His body was slightly tilted toward the outside of the city, and it seemed as if he might fall off the city tower at any time. Fang Gongteng and the soldiers on the city tower saw They all had their hearts in their throats, fearing that Xue Rengui would lose his balance and fall down!
By the way, if he falls, no one can save him. It's like a sheep caught in a tiger's mouth!
Xue Rengui calmed down and adjusted his body's center of gravity. He bent the bow and set an arrow, with luck in the palm of his hand. What was different from the past was that this time he had to shoot three sharp arrows at the same time! His eyes were staring at the fast-flying Wu Jie without blinking. At the same time, he had already calculated in his mind the position of Wu Jie when the arrow flew past!
These are the three arrows in which Xue Rengui condensed all his essence, energy and spirit. They are also the three strongest arrows in his life!
"Boohoo~!"
When the big iron bow was fully drawn, Xue Rengui finally let go of the bow string, and the three feather arrows were as fast as light, and they arrived in front of Wu Jie in the blink of an eye!
At this time, if Wu Jie relies on hearing the sound to identify the position to resist Xue Rengui's three arrows, he will definitely be hit by the arrows, because Xue Rengui's three arrows have exceeded the speed of sound. When Wu Jie hears the sound, the arrows have already It was almost touching his body!
However, Wu Jie is a great master, and his sense of danger is much sharper than ordinary people. When these three arrows came off the strings, Wu Jie had already felt a crisis, so when the arrows arrived in front of him, Wu Jie had already He swung his mace and hit Xue Rengui's three peak arrows!
"Ding ding ding~!"
There was another sound of three feather arrows hitting the mace, but unlike before, Wu Jie actually slowed down by 20% in order to resist Xue Rengui's three peak arrows!
But for the crumbling city gate in front of us, the current speed is completely enough! When the time comes, capture that annoying little guy on the city wall and bring him back to the Turks!
Wu Jie thought secretly in his heart.
Sneaking into the Tang Dynasty this time really shocked him. He did not expect that there would be so many masters from the Central Plains, especially the younger generation of masters from the Tang Dynasty, such as Dugu Xin, Dugu Feiying, Yuchi Baolin, Li Zexuan, Xue Rengui and others gave him too much shock! The Central Plains dynasty is full of talented people, which is far beyond the Turks!
Although Wu Jie thought so in his heart, the strange thing was that he didn't feel the slightest bit sad or worried. This was really not in line with his status as a Turkic national master!
"All the soldiers in the army will obey the order and rush in immediately as soon as the city gate is broken!"
Under the banner of the military commander of the Turkic Army, Ashina Sheer was elated when he saw Wu Jie being invincible and fighting vertically and horizontally. At this time, he pulled out the scimitar from his waist and shouted loudly.
"Yes~!"
The morale of the Turkic army was high, and they all responded to the words.
On the other hand, Tang Jun's side...
"Generals, please order all sergeants to go down and fight! Xue did his best!"
Xue Rengui's face turned pale. After he retreated from the city wall, he said to Fang Gongteng and Hong Wenxing with a heavy expression.
Everyone understood what he meant, and everyone knew very well that it was impossible for the city gate of Longmenguan to withstand Wu Jie's second blow! Fang Gongteng's face was heavy and he shouted loudly: "All soldiers obey the order, go down to the tower and fight to the death with the Turks! Tonight we will defend Longmen Pass to the death!"
"Fight to the death! Defend Longmen Pass to the death!"
"Fight to the death! Defend Longmen Pass to the death!"
The Tang troops on the city tower took action one after another, and a tragic atmosphere quickly filled the entire Longmen Pass. The Tang people were warlike and not afraid of fighting. In order to protect their homeland, they were willing to do anything!
On the other side, Wu Jie's mace has already reached within five feet of the city gate. In just the blink of an eye, he can hit the city gate again!
"Hmph! It's true that a dog can't change its habit of eating shit! Have you forgotten the huge boulder at the edge of Yinshan Mountain?"
But at this moment, an unusually loud roar suddenly came from under the night sky, and then, a long sword flashing with cold light quickly circled down from the sky and fell straight to where Wu Jie would be at the next moment!
"Fufufuhu~!"
The long sword with cold light swirled and whistled in the air, and came to Wu Jie in the blink of an eye. The bone-chilling chill and powerful Qi emanating from the long sword made Wu Jie couldn't help but change his expression. This sword , he didn’t dare to pick it up rashly!
Retreat!
Wu Jie fell rapidly, struck the ground with his mace to stop his progress, and then retreated directly back!
The long sword sank directly into the ground for a foot, and all the corpses, grass clippings, and stones around it were blown away. Within a three-foot radius of the long sword, it became an extremely clean open space. !
Immediately afterwards, a young man with long hair, a white gown, and a sword case fell lightly from the sky, landing exactly within a three-foot radius!
His posture is cool and unrestrained, but his whole body is full of aura, but he is also extremely cold and arrogant!
