Zhou Qi had stepped into the realm of gods with a single battle. The resplendent rain of swords that filled the sky downed countless numbers of migratory birds. It was a magnificent sight that was really worthy of someone with the title of demigod.
Many of the Northwest Army's soldiers even started claiming that Zhou Qi was probably unparalleled when compared to other demigods on a rainy day.
The defeated flock of migratory birds' feathers and carcasses covered the wilderness.
However, like Ji Zi'ang, Zhou Qi was also exhausted after the battle. Qing Zhen, Xu Man, Zhou Qi, and Luo Lan had taken advantage of this temporary truce to retreat from Position 141. Furthermore, they did not stop at the Dawn defensive line and directly rode a vehicle back to Fortress 178 at the rear.
In Qing Zhen's words, they had already done all they could do at the defensive line. All that was left was to patiently wait at Fortress 178.
