Dusk.

Wolf Clan Yue City.

"Princess Yan, this battle is the moment to test our army’s combat effectiveness."

In the City Lord Mansion of Yue City, Qin Tian stared at Yan Ruolan and said, "The enemy has seventy thousand men, basically all of the Wolf Clan’s Vanguard. As long as we defeat them and join forces with my Qin Army, we’ve made a big step forward."

Yan Ruolan nodded, "However, Yue City is not easy to defend. If it were Leopard City, I’d have confidence that fifty thousand could hold against seventy thousand, but here in Yue City... we have new recruits. Do you suggest we stabilize the defense or take proactive action?"

Seeing Yan Ruolan’s tense expression, Qin Tian gave a faint smile.

In reality, Yan Ruolan is a woman with decent military capabilities. However, this is likely her first time leaving the Leopard Clan for this unfamiliar Yue City, making her feel helpless and anxious.

"Don’t worry, it’ll be fine."

Qin Tian smiled lightly at her, "I’ve seen situations like this countless times. I am at least ninety percent confident that I’ll be victorious."

"So confident?" Yan Ruolan was stunned upon hearing this.

Qin Tian nodded and said, "The Wolf Clan will definitely not attack simply from the front; they will certainly send people to launch a side ambush, and possibly infiltrate the city with elite experts, cooperating inside and outside. You must defend against this."

Yan Ruolan nodded.

"Then, we hold out for the night, and tomorrow morning, withdraw from Yue City and continue westward."

"What?"

Yan Ruolan paused in shock, "Withdraw proactively again?"

Qin Tian nodded, "Yes."

"Once they notice, they will certainly pursue us. Their advantage in numbers becomes even more apparent on the plains, making them more difficult to deal with."

"No matter, just draw them out. I see they have several camps, and with too many people, I cannot distinguish which is their Central Army camp."

Qin Tian smiled, "But once they pursue, the real commander will emerge. I’ll take care of it."

"You’re going to assassinate their General?!"

Yan Ruolan finally understood Qin Tian’s intentions and exclaimed, "That’s impossible! The Wolf Clan has many experts. Their General Zhan Tianye is one of the top figures in the Wolf Clan. To assassinate, especially among tens of thousands of people, is incredibly difficult."

Yan Ruolan expressed her disagreement, which Qin Tian had anticipated.

"Indeed, assassinating among tens of thousands is extremely challenging, especially since I only brought a hundred soldiers from the Qin Family."

Qin Tian said, "Therefore, I need you to lure them, leading their troops in circles. Try to involve more of their troops in the pursuit, then their rear will certainly become lax, and that will be my perfect opportunity."

"Do you have confidence?"

Yan Ruolan looked at Qin Tian, her eyes filled with concern.

In a stand-off between armies, isn’t it common for the Commander to remain at the Central Army, not easily deploying?

How is it that this exalted Human Clan King Qin actually prefers to lead personally? This is simply too dangerous!

"It has never failed."

Qin Tian smiled faintly at Yan Ruolan, "As long as I confirm the position of their Commander, and avoid being surrounded by tens of thousands in an instant, I have absolute confidence."

Qin Tian knew that the Wolf Clan’s Commander certainly has cultivation below the Flying Immortal Realm and possibly hasn’t even reached the Peak of the Great Immortal Realm.

This is at least two levels below him, and he can resolve the fight in a minute.

"Then I’ll accompany you."

After hesitating for a moment, Yan Ruolan suddenly proposed, "You are taking this risk for me... for the alliance of the Leopard Clan and Qin Army. I can’t let you go alone, regardless of life or death, I’ll go with you."

"This side needs your command, you can’t go."

"I’m going."

Displaying her decisiveness, Yan Ruolan was unyielding in her decision, exuding an unmatched determination that made Qin Tian unable to sway or convince her.

"If you don’t let me go, then you shouldn’t go either. Let’s defend properly. They can’t easily defeat me with that number." Yan Ruolan said.

Qin Tian scratched his head.

He certainly knew that these seventy thousand men couldn’t defeat their fifty thousand.

Actually, Qin Tian was concerned about the Wolf Clan’s reinforcements from the rear, and those of the other three clans.

Moreover, in Qin Tian’s mind, he had plans to gradually eliminate the Wolf Clan’s viable forces.

The Wolf Clan has only about two hundred thousand troops. If they catch him this time by capturing the leader first, he will exterminate seventy thousand, making the Wolf Clan bleed directly. Then, cooperating with Zhou Yang and others, exterminating the Wolf Clan will be an easy task.

It took Qin Tian ten minutes to persuade Yan Ruolan, but ultimately, Qin Tian compromised.

He could only take Yan Ruolan along to execute the assassination plan.

When Qin Tian decided to only bring a hundred soldiers from the Qin Family for the assassination, Yan Ruolan was stunned.

Under Yan Ruolan’s insistence, she brought twenty Leopard Clan experts to accompany them.

A squad of one hundred and twenty people, ahead of them out of the city, ambushed in a concealed side of their planned escape route, waiting for the main army to leave the city.

Sure enough, when the Leopard Clan army opened the West gate of the city to prepare for retreat, the distant Wolf Clan army detected the traces and began attacking Yue City.

As the sun rose early in the morning, the Wolf Clan army captured Yue City, which was now an empty city.

Due to the Wolf King’s order to kill Qin Tian and capture Yan Ruolan, the Wolf Clan army did not rest, directly pursuing the Leopard Clan army.

According to Qin Tian’s arrangement, the Leopard Clan army fought while retreating, dividing into three forces, and quickly escaped to the west.

Thinking the Leopard Clan army was in disarray, the Wolf Clan’s General also ordered their forces to divide into three, aiming for complete extermination of the enemy.

This gave Qin Tian and others an opportunity.

After the Vanguard quickly chased ahead, the original seventy thousand Wolf Clan soldiers were down to just over twenty thousand.

The main army advanced quickly, while from afar Qin Tian, through meticulous observation, finally confirmed the location of the Wolf Clan General, Zhan Tianye.

"Wait a bit more, when their Vanguard is far enough, we’ll strike."

Qin Tian whispered to Yan Ruolan, "Then, I’ll take care of killing Zhan Tianye, all of you focus on covering me."

"You alone, can you manage?"

Yan Ruolan worriedly said, "It’s said that Zhan Tianye is a strong figure at the Great Immortal Realm Middle Stage, and has even broken through to the Great Immortal Realm Late Stage. You, alone, might..."

"Great Immortal Realm Late Stage..."

Upon hearing this, Qin Tian smiled faintly, "Don’t worry, just help me keep an eye on the surroundings, prevent surprise attacks by Wolf Clan soldiers with Hidden Weapons or poison during my fight."

"Alright, when the time comes, I’ll definitely clear all obstacles for you."

Yan Ruolan nodded, her heart anxious for Qin Tian, already determined that if Qin Tian faced danger, she would risk everything to rescue him.
