Marrying a White Snake Wife is Super Cool

Gu Gaoxu blasted a Shadowless Purple Wolf to death with one shot.

But these Shadowless Purple Wolves pounced on the men as if they had a death wish.

The soldiers of the second and third teams formed several ranks and shouted in unison, "General, fall back!"

Gu Gaoxu led his soldiers, fighting as they retreated. Seeing that they couldn’t pull away from the Shadowless Purple Wolves, he had no choice but to shout, "Get down! Everyone, get down!"

Hearing Gu Gaoxu’s voice, the soldiers trusted him unconditionally and dropped to the ground.

Just as the Shadowless Purple Wolves were about to lunge, volleys of bullets flew toward them.

"BANG! BANG! BANG!"

The Shadowless Purple Wolves that were hit cried out in agony, their legs twitching a few times before they died.

After the gunfire stopped, Gu Gaoxu and his men, still on the ground, pushed off with their feet and started running.

Shells traced arcs through the air, flying over the heads of Gu Gaoxu and his men before landing and exploding amidst the wolf pack.

Gu Gaoxu grabbed a handful of bullets from a large crate and began reloading his small handgun.

With the suppressing fire from the Firearms Team and the Mortars, the Shadowless Purple Wolves were completely routed and unable to get near Gu Gaoxu’s troops for the time being.

The sound of gongs echoed from the island’s central peak.

The masked men, who had been locked in fierce combat with Gu Gaoxu’s soldiers, began to retreat. The Shadowless Purple Wolves also turned and fled.

Gu Gaoxu finally breathed a sigh of relief. Wiping the sweat from his forehead, he ordered, "Do a head count! Take stock of weapons and equipment!"

An officer saluted. "Yes, General!"

Bathed in moonlight, Gu Gaoxu dialed Lu Yuan’s number.

Lu Yuan was currently on top of Su Liyan. He kept moving as he grabbed the phone from the bedside table, panting as he asked, "Hello? Why are you calling in the middle of the night?"

Gu Gaoxu was thrilled the call connected. "Brother Lu, why do you sound even more out of breath than I am? Getting some exercise?"

Lu Yuan, still thrusting back and forth, said impatiently, "You punk, if you have something to say, then spit it out!"

Lu Yuan was a little annoyed. ’This kid had better have a good reason for this. Otherwise, I’ll have to teach him a lesson next time we meet. He’s really getting in the way of important business.’

Gu Gaoxu chuckled. "Brother Lu, I’m so sorry to be calling you this late, but I need you to come save me!"

Gu Gaoxu had gotten smarter this time. He didn’t try to tough things out. The moment a fight or firefight broke out, he immediately called for reinforcements.

You live and learn!

Taiping City wasn’t far from Elephant Island. If Lu Yuan were to disentangle himself from Su Liyan and head for Elephant Island now, he would arrive in half a day at most.

It was just that, right now, Lu Yuan couldn’t bear to leave Su Liyan.

Lu Yuan held the phone, having just heard Gu Gaoxu’s request, but he hadn’t had a chance to reply yet.

Su Liyan, lost in the heat of the moment, reached out and slapped the phone out of Lu Yuan’s hand. Her legs circled and locked around his waist.

Su Liyan was a little upset, whimpering, "Don’t stop!"

On the other end of the line, Gu Gaoxu only heard a CLATTER, then lost his connection to Lu Yuan. He waited, but there was no reply from Brother Lu.

Gu Gaoxu brought the phone down, tapped it a few times with his hand, then put it back to his ear and shouted, "Hello? Hello? Brother Lu?"

There was still no response from the other end. Gu Gaoxu had no choice but to hang up, muttering, ’Useless at a critical moment. This is a disaster!’

Gu Gaoxu said to the soldiers under his command, "Grab your weapons and gear! Follow me!"

Before setting out, Gu Gaoxu took a small box from a large crate. He patted it and said to himself, ’Better safe than sorry.’

Gu Gaoxu led his soldiers to a high slope not far from the shore.

Down on the shore, Gu Zhaolian was commanding over two hundred soldiers in a battle against a group of men dressed in coarse linen.

These two-hundred-plus soldiers were not the island’s entire main force.

He could faintly hear the men in coarse linen speaking in a fluent East Asian tongue, "Wari wari, guru guru..."

Gu Gaoxu spat and cursed, ’Little Easterners. They actually dare to invade the borders of our Celestial Dynasty. They’re courting death.’

Although Gu Zhaolian commanded with all his might, most of his soldiers were bare-handed with no weapons to use. It was difficult to fend off the enemy’s attack, and many died under the Wakizashis of the Little Easterners.

Those bare-handed soldiers had been resting in their tents. When they awoke, the armory was already on fire. Faced with the enemy landing on the island, they had no choice but to fight with their bare fists and their lives.

Standing on the high slope, Gu Gaoxu began to wonder. ’That Gu Zhaolian greeted me just a moment ago. How is he here commanding a battle in the blink of an eye? Could it be that was a Xingzi in disguise, using an Illusion?’

It wasn’t difficult for a powerful Xingzi to disguise itself as a member of the Human Race.

Gu Gaoxu looked at the weapons in his soldiers’ hands and made a decision. "Fourth team, with me! We’re going down to provide support. The rest of you, provide ranged fire support from here!"

"Yes, General!" the soldiers responded in unison.

Gu Gaoxu couldn’t bear to watch the soldiers of the Empire throw their lives away bare-handed for nothing.

Gu Gaoxu snatched a Red Tassel Spear from a soldier, gave it a few twirls, and roared, "Zhaolian! I’m here to help!"

With that, Gu Gaoxu charged forward, wielding the Red Tassel Spear. He sent one of the Little Easterners flying with a single thrust, then landed beside Gu Zhaolian and boasted, "How about that? Am I awesome or what!"

With the different sides locked in a chaotic melee, the Firearms Team and Mortars Gu Gaoxu had brought couldn’t be used. They could only stare helplessly from the high slope.

Gu Gaoxu wielded the Red Tassel Spear with tiger-like ferocity. Every thrust punched a hole in an enemy, and though several people surrounded him, none could land a single blow.

Gu Zhaolian, on the other hand, was in a much worse state. His Martial Arts skills were mediocre, and he was being chased and slashed at by the Little Easterners, even getting knocked to the ground several times.

Gu Gaoxu leaped into the air, kicking two men over. He shielded Gu Zhaolian behind him and said, "Little brother, your Martial Arts could really use some improvement!"
