The Thunder Fiend Pearl was a priceless treasure bred by heaven and earth. It would only be formed by countless lucky coincidences. It could be encountered but could not be sought. Normally, it would only appear once every 10,000 years, and it would definitely attract countless people to snatch it, especially lightning cultivators. The reason for that was because the Thunder Fiend Pearl could increase the cultivation speed of lightning attribute cultivators. If the Thunder Fiend Pearl was embedded in a magic treasure, it would increase the power of the magic treasure by nearly twice. The most terrifying thing was that it could increase the power of lightning attribute magic techniques by more than three times. If a late Nascent Soul stage cultivator possessed a Thunder Fiend Pearl, they could even fight against an early Soul Refining stage expert.

He hadn't expected that someone would actually use five Thunder Fiend Pearls to set up the formation. This person was indeed extremely generous, but in the end, it was beneficial to Chu Jun. Even though Meng Chang and the others were extremely envious, they could only be envious. Even if they were given ten courages, they would not dare to snatch the Thunder Fiend Pearl from Chu Jun.

The moment the Five Elements Thunder Eye was destroyed, the Thunder Elemental Fiend Array was broken. The thunder clouds in the sky quickly dispersed. Chu Jun discovered that the suppressed divine sense had recovered. His powerful divine sense swept past and found where Tao Fei was flying. However, his expression changed drastically. He shouted angrily, "Thief dares!"

A scorching streak of light flashed past. Chu Jun had already appeared on a hillside in the blink of an eye. He saw a figure speeding away. Tao Fei Fei was lying in a pool of blood. The ground around her was littered with hundreds of corpses. It was her own military camp.

Chu Jun's pupils were immediately filled with blood. His Qi rushed into the bull fight, and a terrifying killing intent soared into the sky. The Tai Ah Sword flew out of his hand, directly shattering the void and shooting towards the escaping figure.

After the flying sword shot out, Chu Jun did not look at it again and quickly pounced down to pick up Tao Fei who was in a pool of blood.

Tao Fei Fei's face was pale. His anger was like a gossamer. Blood seeped out from his chest, dyeing the armor red. A huge sword mark almost cut the armor in half. Chu Jun did not even think about it and immediately cast a small divine healing spell on Tao Fei Fei Fei's body.

At this time, Ding Qing and the others hurriedly arrived. Seeing Tao Fei Fei lying in Chu Junhuai's ears, their hearts couldn't help but tremble, "Fei Fei Fei!"

Tao Fei Fei slightly opened her eyes. Seeing the nervous faces of Chu Jun and Ding Qing, her heart couldn't help but warm up. She said weakly, "I … I'm fine, don't …!"

"Shut up!" Chu Jun frowned and scolded.

Tao Fei Fei immediately closed her mouth, and her heart was filled with sweetness. Her pale face was actually flushed red.

Under Chu Jun's little divine healing technique, the wound on Tao Fei Fei's chest slowly healed, and her expression gradually returned to normal. Chu Jun couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He poured two spirit medicines into Tao Fei Fei's mouth to treat her internal injuries. He also removed her blood-stained armor, revealing a white leather armor inside. It was the Fifth Grade high-grade soft armor that Chu Jun had given her a few days ago.

Chu Jun couldn't help but secretly rejoice. If it wasn't for this Tier 5 Soft Armor, Tao Fei Fei would have been torn open and her internal organs would have been completely destroyed. At that time, even Immortal Da Luo wouldn't have been able to save her.

At this time, many people had already surrounded him. Tao Fei Fei was hugged by Chu Jun and even took off her armor in public. She couldn't help but blush. She could only bury her head in Chu Jun's embrace like an ostrich and pretend to be dizzy.

"Brother Jun, give me the imperial concubine!" Ding Qing saw Tao Fei Fei's embarrassment and hurriedly brought Tao Fei Fei over from Chu Jun's embrace.

At this moment, Tao Fei Fei slowly woke up and said, "Sister Qing, I … I'm fine, let me down!"

Tao Fei Fei was slashed by that person. Fortunately, there was a Tier 5 high-grade armor inside. However, her chest was cut by the sword Qi, but it was not fatal. She had already recovered from the Minor Divine Healing Technique.

Buzz! With a sword cry, the Tai Ah Sword flew back automatically from afar. Chu Jun reached out to grab the flying sword, but he frowned.

"Let that person escape?" Ding Qing couldn't help but ask.

Chu Jun nodded and said, "That person's cultivation is not bad. He let him escape, but he was also injured by the Tai Ah Sword!"

Everyone began to clean up the battlefield. Less than three hundred of Old Lou's five thousand vanguard troops survived this battle, and less than a hundred of Tao Fei's five hundred personal guards remained alive. It could be said that they suffered heavy losses.

Within the camp.

All the generals and higher-ups gathered together. The atmosphere was extremely solemn. Before they could finish their mission, they lost a huge battle. The vanguard of the former army was completely annihilated. Although they had finally broken through the enemy's grand formation, no one was happy.

Tao Fei Fei lowered her head and bit her lower lip tightly. Her pretty face was filled with frustration. This was the first time she had suffered a miserable defeat since her debut, and it was also the most useless one.

Ding Qing's expression was also not very good. This was the first battle against Zhang Yan, and it had actually annihilated all the vanguards of the former army. Even the former commander had almost died in another's formation. This had undoubtedly dealt a great blow to the morale of the entire army.

"General Tao, tell us what happened!" Ding Qing said indifferently.

Tao Fei Fei raised her head and told the story!

It turned out that Tao Fei Fei had received a report from the scouts that there were no vanguard troops within four hundred miles ahead. So he took five hundred personal guards and rushed over first, In a hurry, he entered the range of the lightning array and searched, Unexpectedly, most of the five hundred personal guards were killed by lightning. Fortunately, the personal guards fought to the death to protect them. Moreover, she managed to avoid a calamity only after finding a blind spot in the lightning array. However, she was attacked by another expert. The remaining personal guards were almost dead. If Chu Jun hadn't arrived in time, even she would have died.

Ding Qing frowned and asked, "General Tao, can't you see that it's a lightning array?"

Tao Fei Fei nodded, "This subordinate can see it!"

"Then why did you take the risk to enter the formation?" Ding Qing's voice turned fierce.

Tao Fei Fei clenched her pink fist tightly and lowered her head, "This subordinate is eager to save someone …!"

"Save people eager? "As the commander, you actually rushed into the formation in an unfavorable situation. Furthermore, you rushed into the formation without ordering the former army to stop. This is simply extremely stupid. If all 50,000 of the former army were to enter the formation, then the consequences would be 50,000 soldiers being annihilated, not 5,000 vanguard troops. As a general, you have made an unforgivable mistake!" Ding Qing slammed her palm heavily on the table, her tone extremely sharp.

Although they usually had good relations, marching to war was no joke, and even those who kissed him would not give him face!

Tao Fei Fei's fingernails pierced through her palms, Tears rolled in his eyes. The incense shoulders on both sides trembled slightly. Seeing this, Chu Jun couldn't help but feel a little soft-hearted. Just as he was about to speak, Ding Qing glared at him hatefully. He could only swallow the words that had reached his mouth. Forget it, it was very difficult for a person to grow up without any setbacks. If this Peach Blossom Girl wanted to become an outstanding general, it was inevitable that she would suffer some hardships. This time, she would have to buy a lesson.

"This subordinate is wrong. This subordinate is willing to bear the responsibility of negligence!" Tao Fei Fei blinked the tears in her eyes and raised her head firmly.

"From today onwards, remove Tao Fei Fei from the position of former general of the army and demote her to the position of deputy general. The position of general will be held by Chu Jun!" Ding Qing said coldly.

Chu Jun was stunned for a moment. He thought that he had heard wrongly and actually let himself be the commander of the former army. Are you kidding me?

Tao Fei Fei also looked at Chu Jun in astonishment and said in surprise, "He … he is the main general?"

Chu Jun was instantly displeased. This peach blossom girl actually dared to look down on her brother. This lord general brother still insisted on treating her like this!

"This subordinate obeys!" Chu Jun stood up solemnly and saluted. When he sat down, he blinked at Tao Fei Fei and said via voice transmission, "Girl, you'll be hanging out with Master in the future!"

Tao Fei Fei's face turned red as she rolled her eyes at Chu Jun. At this time, she already understood what Ding Qing meant. She was clearly punishing herself, but in fact, she still wanted her to continue commanding the former army. Chu Jun was just pretending.

Ding Qing glared at Chu Jun angrily and said, "Chu Jun, I would have given the lives of 45,000 ex-soldiers into your hands. If anything goes wrong, you are the only one asking!"

Chu Jun said seriously, "Don't worry, Marshal. Chu Jun will definitely live up to his expectations. He will directly attack Jun Shan and capture Old Thief Zhang Yan to kowtow and apologize to you!"

The moment these words were spoken, all of the girls immediately turned pale!

The elders couldn't help but smile, and the gloomy atmosphere in the tent became much more relaxed.

Ding Qing's expression slowed down. She swept a glance at everyone present and said, "Actually, I was wrong to lose this time. I was too careless and underestimated Zhang Yan. The distance between the three armies was too far for the enemy to take advantage of."

"All of this is because we underestimated our enemies too much. This defeat has made me understand that the other party is not a mob that can't withstand a single blow. Instead, he is a strategist. The other party first angered our vanguard army with his methods, and then lured them into the lightning formation. They are intertwined. They are definitely experts in war!"

After saying that, Ding Qing paused for a moment and continued, "Moreover, the other party can set up such a powerful Thunder Trail Demon Formation. I am sure that he is a battle general, and his level is not low!"

When the elders heard this, they couldn't help but look at each other. One of the elders said, "Young miss, are you saying that Zhang Yan invited Zhan to deal with us in the future?"

Ding Qing nodded her head and said, "It's not surprising that Zhang Yan was able to invite the help of a battle general, but …!"

"But what?" Ding Ding asked with widened eyes.

However, Chu Jun interrupted, "Sister Qing, do you want to say that the other party spent so much effort, but it was just a bit unbelievable to be able to meet the 5,000 vanguard formations?"

Ding Qing glanced at Chu Jun with approval and nodded, "Brother Jun is right. To build such a large-scale Thunder Fiend Array and even use five Thunder Fiend Pearls, it's a waste to only deal with 5,000 vanguard troops!"

"Therefore, their target is not the 5,000 vanguard troops, but our 50,000 former troops!" Chu Jun said confidently.

"Oh? Then why are they only dealing with the five thousand vanguard troops?"

Chu Jun stood up and said, "I have already asked a surviving vanguard. It is said that they were ambushed and surrounded by nearly ten thousand people. However, the opponent's combat strength is ordinary. They were easily killed by the vanguard." "Old Lou thought that he was a soft persimmon, so he brought someone back to kill him … Well, he might really be a soft persimmon, but in the end, he was forced into a hurry, so he had no choice but to activate the lightning array to protect himself in advance!"

Imperial Concubine Tao's eyes lit up. She nodded and said, "So their original intention is to surround the vanguard army and attract my former army to rescue them. In the end, they will activate the lightning array to capture my 50,000 former army …" At this point, Tao Fei Fei's back was drenched in sweat.

Chu Jun smiled and said, "So you are lucky this time. Zhang Yan was able to invite a brilliant general, but he was unable to invite a strong regular team. In addition, Old Lou's appetite was too good, so he forced that person to activate the lightning array ahead of time. This is considered a great fortune in misfortune!"

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but gasp. If that was the case, they would have nearly lost 15,000 soldiers!
