After Chen Chao left Bailu Prefecture, he had already started heading north again. This time he returned south. By now, all the things he had to do had been completed. Regarding the important matter of human spies, since they had been entrusted to Chixin Guan, Chen Chao
If there is no way to interfere, there should be no serious problems if Chixinguan and the guarding envoys join forces in the future.
However, Chen Chao didn't go very fast this time on his northward trip. On the way, he actually had some thoughts on taking a good look at the Daliang Dynasty.
It’s not that I have any other thoughts, I just feel that after this trip to the north, it will be difficult to come back.
Facing the current situation, he has long been prepared to die for his country. Death does not matter, as long as he can win.
Therefore, Chen Chao's mood was not too heavy along the way. He stopped and walked and soon arrived at the border of Weizhou.
Chen Chao has always had deep feelings for Weizhou. In his heart, he probably prefers to regard Weizhou as his hometown. That small courtyard in a remote small county is probably the most comfortable place for him to stay in these years.
place.
In those years, I would go out to kill monsters from time to time, and when I had free time, I would have late-night snacks with the county magistrate Mi Ke. Although Mi Ke is smooth in dealing with things, he is indeed not a first-rate corrupt official. Now in the capital of God,
As an official, I heard that my official reputation is quite good, but I am a little older. If I were younger, I might not be able to become a prime minister if I stay a few more years.
It's just that Mi Ke never thought that he would reach that point in his life, and he feels that the current situation is very good.
Chen Chao felt a little emotional. After parting ways in Tianqing County, the two met again in Shendu, but they had so many things to do afterwards that they actually didn't even sit down to have a good supper.
Thinking about those miscellaneous things, Chen Chao walked through most of Weizhou, and finally came to a ferry. Going north here is to set foot on the border of Changping Prefecture, and then go further north, which is the northern border of New Liuzhou.
Standing in front of the ferry, Chen Chao looked calm.
Ever since he watched the little girl named Xie Ying die in his arms, Chen Chao would think about a question every time he went to the ferry.
That is, it would have been better if I had escorted Xie Ying to Bailu Prefecture.
This matter has always been Chen Chao's inner demon for a long time. Although he is relieved now, he has not forgotten the matter. Every time he thinks about it, he will feel a little depressed.
Although in the Liang Dynasty, people used to be eaten by monsters in the mountains and forests every day, there was still a big difference between seeing them and not seeing them.
Just when Chen Chao was a little distracted, a ferry had docked, and many people got off the boat. Some of them were obviously traveling together. After a few people got off the boat, they originally planned to go southeast, but
After walking a few steps, a woman in a plain robe looked at the back of a figure in the distance and said, "Look, that person looks like the guardian envoy."
The other people didn't even turn around to look and started laughing. One man laughed and said, "Wu Yi, you really miss me so much?"
Different from the man's joking statement, the other woman was much more considerate when she spoke, "This is human nature. Now there are even rumors in the North that Fairy Litang also admires the Lord Guardian very much, but
But it’s just unrequited love.”
"Haha, if another man had treated Fairy Litang like this, I, Xu, would definitely have scolded her for being ungrateful, but since I am the guardian envoy, then... I am truly worthy of being the guardian envoy!"
The man laughed loudly, and his words also made everyone laugh.
"Xu Yin, why do I remember that you were a rebellious young man in the early years? Why do you feel so admirable when you mention the guardian envoy now?"
Another young man in a green shirt spoke. His name was also coincidentally called Li Qingshan.
Xu Yin smiled and said: "Is there a second person in the world who can actually drive the Demon Emperor out of Daliang? Is there a second person who can fight one against three on the battlefield? Of course I admire such a person. But I still
I kept saying, if that guy Hai Qing is still here..."
At this point, Xu Yin's voice became softer, and he said softly with some sadness: "I would have gone too far."
When it comes to Hai Qing, these people are not in high spirits.
"Let's go."
Wu Yi sniffed first, pretending to be relaxed and said: "We'll talk about it after we've done it."
The other people nodded and were about to move forward when the young man who had only been seen from behind had turned around and looked at the people here.
Looking at the back was just a guess before, and he didn't actually think about it. Now that he saw the face, Wu Yi was stunned for the first time.
"Guardian envoy..."
When the other people heard this, they also looked over there, and sure enough they saw a young man in black shirt looking at them with a smile.
"Lord Guardian Envoy!"
Xu Yin spoke first, a little excited.
Chen Chao walked towards them and said with a smile: "Fairy Huang, Fairy Wu, Fellow Daoist Xu, Fellow Daoist Li, long time no see."
These people were the same people whom I had met before under the pseudonym Chen Ling of Chen Chao in Beidi. Of course, they all knew my identity later.
In Qingyue Mountain, Chen Chao once said that if the demon clan breaks through the Great Wall of the North, he will be the first person in the Kingdom of Death. At that time, many monks felt their blood boiling and left the North for the North.
That was how these people were at that time, but there were seven of them at that time, and now...
Chen Chao frowned, "Xianzi Han, Fellow Daoist Hai and Fellow Daoist Zuo?"
Xu Yin's eyes were gloomy and he was speechless.
Huang Ying then said softly: "The first time the demon clan attacked the city, Hai Qing, Han Chan and Zuo Mu died on the top of the city."
Chen Chao remained silent.
Hai Qing, a close disciple of the Qianhu Sect's leader, is a pure guy who is regarded by the Qianhu Sect as the next leader. The same is true for Zuo Mu, who is also regarded as the successor of the Snow Mountain Sect.
Compared with these two men, Chen Chao actually had a deeper impression of Han Chan. This was not because she was a woman, but because she was a rare woman with an extremely forthright personality. She even thought about being with Chen Chao.
A guard envoy compares his sword skills.
When we said goodbye that day, no one thought it would be the last time we saw each other.
"A few of them sacrificed their lives for the country, and I admire them very much."
Chen Chao smiled bitterly and said, "At this moment, I can only say these polite words."
Li Qingshan, who had always been silent, said: "Hai Qing, that stupid guy, was still saying before he died that the Lord Guardian did not hide behind us, but stood in front of us. Just for this reason, Hai Qing...
Qing will die without regrets."
"Han Chan said that her biggest regret is that she was unable to stab the Guardian Envoy."
Huang Ying's eyes were moist and she could hardly speak.
They were the ones who stayed with these two people when they were dying. As for Zuo Mu, he died during the war without leaving any last words.
Chen Chao said: "I, the court, and the people will all remember them."
Xu Yin wiped his face and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter whether you remember it or not. Anyway, we did this voluntarily. It is not aggrieved to die in the north. If you feel sad, you will only feel that you have not killed enough monsters."
!”
Huang Ying glanced at Chen Chao, changed the question and asked: "The guardian envoy is traveling alone, is he going to return to the north?"
When they went south, they also heard a lot of things along the way, including the destruction of Yinshan Mountain in Yingzhou. All of this was done by the guardian envoy.
"After we finish our work, we have to return to the north. The situation there is still a bit dangerous."
Chen Chao asked: "What about you?"
"We are going to Huanglongzhou now, and then we will return to the north."
Wu Yi said: "That stupid guy from Haiqing is from Huanglongzhou. He has always wanted to return to his roots. We brought his bones back, which can be regarded as fulfilling his dream. However, this guy was obviously born in Jianqi.
It doesn’t make sense that he is not a swordsman in a rich place.”
In the early years, they had been joking that there were too many strange things in the world, but Hai Qing was obviously born in Huanglong Prefecture, but Li Qingshan, who was born in Bailu Prefecture, was not a scholar, but a swordsman.
At that time, Hai Qing could only smile innocently, and Li Qingshan probably ignored it.
The rest of the people would laugh together.
I just thought it was unusual at the time.
Xu Yin said: "I came back this time to take a look at my hometown. Even if I come back, I will die after that, so I won't bother you."
Wu Yi rolled his eyes at him, "Do you think that if you die, we will treat you like that piece of wood from Hai Qing?"
Huang Ying smiled slightly. She had long been accustomed to the bickering between the two people, so she didn't speak to them.
But Chen Chao looked at them and said: "If possible, try to live as much as possible."
Li Qingshan smiled and said: "Your Majesty, there is no need to worry, we have already seen through such matters as life and death."
Xu Yin quickly waved his hands and said: "What nonsense are you talking about? I still don't want to die, but sometimes I have to die."
Chen Chao smiled, changed the subject and asked, "Fellow Daoist Li, have you seen Yu Xiyi at the top of the city this time?"
Li Qingshan nodded, "I've seen him from afar, but I haven't been able to talk to Yu Dajianxian."
Chen Chao smiled and said: "This time when I return to the northern border and meet that guy Yu Xiyi, I will talk to him and try to get you two to sit down and have a drink together."
"That doesn't matter. I just hope that Sword Immortal Yu can use his sword to kill a few more demon lords, so as to bring face to our group of sword cultivators."
Li Qingshan thought for a while and said: "If possible, the guardian envoy could mention to Sword Immortal Yu that there is a swordsman named Li Qingshan who fought alongside him at the top of the northern city."
Chen Chao nodded.
Wu Yi suddenly spoke weakly, "Lord Guardian, can I make a request?"
Chen Chao smiled and said, "But it doesn't matter."
"Lord Guardian, can you give me a message to that Guanzhu Yun? Just say... just say that Wu Yi has always liked him."
Wu Yi's face was a little red, but now he mustered up the courage to say such words.
In fact, this is not an unexpected thing. Yun Jianyue has always had no shortage of women to like him outside Fangwai. After all, with his appearance, his background, and even his personality, as long as he is short of Taoist companions, he will already have a big one.
He threw a lot of women into his arms.
Chen Chao had a strange look on his face. He just remembered what Yun Jianyue said about having an heir. However, after thinking about it, he didn't say it out loud to disappoint him. He just smiled and said, "The words will take care of it."
Then Chen Chao took the initiative to look at Huang Ying and asked, "Where is Fairy Huang?"
Huang Ying shook her head and joked: "I don't think I will definitely die. I won't say such last words."
Chen Chao smiled and nodded, "That's right."
After that, several people said goodbye at the ferry, and some of them wanted to go south first, and then north. Chen Chao wanted to go directly to the north.
After the two sides said goodbye, Chen Chao walked north along the river, while the few people here stood and watched.
Xu Yin couldn't help but sigh: "No one is like the Guardian Envoy, right? You have reached this level, you are still so young, and your future is obviously limitless, but you still have to put your head on your waist and fight for your life. Isn't it difficult to do it?"
??????55.??????
"Otherwise, why would so many people admire him?"
Huang Ying smiled.
After that, the group of people headed south. Xu Yin suddenly remembered something and asked, "Huang Ying, did you buy a portrait of the guardian envoy in Shendu before? What did you do with that thing?"
Huang Ying said calmly: "You take care of me."
"You don't like Lord Guardian, do you?"
Xu Yin joked, with a smile on his face.
Huang Ying did not answer this question honestly, but just said: "How many women in the world don't like him?"
Xu Yin thought about it for a while and found that this was indeed the truth.
…
…
After leaving the Demon Clan's royal city, he has not yet returned to Mobei, but has just reached the lower reaches of the Onan River where the Red Sleeve Demon Lord and the Bai Jing Demon Lord meet again.
This demon king, who has a high status in the demon sea in the north, is actually not that bright now. After all, on the battlefield before, he was almost trampled to death by the young man with a casual kick. Many demon clans saw it.
Really, in addition to that, those Fuyun demons have also appeared on the battlefield now.
With such an existence appearing, Bai Jing naturally becomes less memorable.
The red-sleeved demon king looked at Bai Jing straight to the point and said with a smile: "I'm sure you won't refuse if I make a deal."
Demon Lord Bai Jing narrowed his eyes. His views on this eldest princess were never simple, "What kind of deal?"
"You bring all the tribes from the Demon Sea to Mobei and listen to my instructions. Once you break the Great Wall in the north and destroy the human race, the southern border will help you ascend to the throne of God."
The Red Sleeve Demon Lord took out his bargaining chip without any hesitation, and also made an offer that the Bai Jing Demon Lord seemed unable to refuse no matter what.
Demon Lord Bai Jing did not answer the words of Demon Lord Red Sleeves, but instead asked: "Why do you want to destroy the human race? Don't you like their culture and customs very much?"
"That's exactly the case, so I'm not surprised that they are getting stronger little by little, and I won't be surprised that they will become even stronger in the future. That's why I want to destroy them."
The Red Sleeve Demon Lord smiled and said: "I was not able to sit on the throne of God at the beginning, but the blood flowing on my body is the blood of the royal family after all. These are my people. How can I watch them be enslaved by the human race in the future?"
Bai Jing sneered: "Since they are all said to be your people, don't you think what you said before is ridiculous?"
"That's what I say, but I have a grudge against my nephew. It's not like you don't know that women are always petty and easy to hold grudges. This is not a strange thing."
The Red Sleeve Demon Lord smiled and said, "You don't have to believe it, but if you don't make this deal with me, you won't have much chance of becoming the Demon Emperor."
Bai Jing was still very cautious, "I'm afraid it would be difficult for him to die at his level."
"Since he is the strongest, he is naturally the most eye-catching. It is not a secret that the human race wants to kill him. But on our side, those Fuyun demons, do you really think they came up with it on their own? They were coerced into doing things by others.
Everyone will feel annoyed, and if they are annoyed, they may take action."
The Red-sleeved Demon Lord said: "Even if you don't die, you will still be seriously injured. When the time comes, you will lead the southern Xinjiang army, not to mention a 100% chance of winning, but at least an 80% chance."
"By the way, you even have the demon sea clans. Who doesn't know that those guys over there may not listen to anything else, but they will never listen to you, Bai Jing."
Bai Jing asked: "How do I know if you will lie to me?"
The Red Sleeve Demon Lord smiled calmly and said: "Some things are just like this. I say a thousand words and ten thousand. No matter how guaranteed it is, you should doubt it or not. This kind of thing is only up to you to consider. What do you think, that is what it is."
Bai Jing didn't say anything. In fact, if the Red Sleeve Demon Lord used any means to make things perfect, he would feel that something was wrong. In this way, he felt that there was no problem.
"You must know that those Fuyun demons are not interested in the throne, and the others do not have your prestige. No one can compete with you."
When the Red-sleeved Demon Lord said this, he paused and said with a smile, "That's all."
After saying this, the Red-sleeved Demon Lord walked toward Mobei, leaving Bai Jing alone and motionless.
I don’t know how long it took, but the Red-Sleeved Demon Lord had only walked a few dozen feet away when Bai Jing’s voice came from behind.
"make a deal."
The red-sleeved demon smiled and said nothing.
Some people are easy to deceive because they are very persistent about something, so even if you tell a lie that is full of loopholes, they will believe it.
The people who are hardest to deceive are those who have no idea about anything.
The Red-sleeved Demon Lord did not turn around, but just pulled a wild flower at her feet, held it in her hand, and smiled. She was almost certain that Bai Jing would not survive until the end of the war.
Because there is another saying that the less people want to die, the faster they die.
…
…
When the red-sleeved demon king arrived at the Chinese army's tent that was moving forward, the high priest was relieved.
The war is about to break out, but the Red Sleeve Demon Lord has not yet arrived as the coach, so the high priest must be worried.
The Red Sleeve Demon Lord joked: "Jingzhu, this is the first time I see you worrying about me. I will keep it up in the future."
The high priest said helplessly: "As the leader of the demon clan, it's difficult for me not to worry if you are not here at the moment."
"Is that all?"
The red-sleeved demon king blinked his big eyes, looking pitiful.
The high priest turned away and ignored her.
The Red Sleeve Demon Lord laughed it off.
"I know you're a rock."
The Red Sleeve Demon Lord took a few steps forward. From this position, he could actually see the head of the Great Wall of the North in the distance.
"We're about to start killing people again."
The Red Sleeve Demon Lord rubbed his tiger's mouth and said with some regret: "Why didn't this war start more than two hundred years ago?"
At that time, there was no such thing as the Liang Dynasty in the world.
The high priest just asked: "This time, is it still a full-scale attack on the city?"
In the first battle, the demon tribe spared no effort and sent heavy troops at several important passes, but in the end they still chose to fight against the General's Mansion.
At that time, they probably thought that by attacking the General's Mansion in one fell swoop, they would be able to completely defeat the morale of the Daliang border troops, and things would be much easier after that, but in the end they were still a little short of the mark.
"Although we failed to win the first siege, the consumption was successful for the human race. This time they will definitely be even more stretched."
The Red-sleeved Demon Lord glanced at the high priest and smiled: "But Jing Zhu, you are right. Even though we have a big business and a lot of money, we can't squander it so casually."
The Red Sleeved Demon Lord took a deep breath and said with a smile: "This time, I will also use my brain more. After all, it is the last time."
…
…
The demon army was stationed a hundred miles in front of the Great Wall in the North, and the Red-sleeved Demon Lord and the high priest arrived not far from the city.
On top of the city, all the northern generals including General Ning Ping were looking at the Red-sleeved Demon King.
The Red-sleeved Demon Lord raised his head and said with a smile: "Why don't you surrender? Otherwise so many people will die."
Ning Ping smiled and said, "Has this happened in the past two hundred years?"
"oh."
The Red Sleeve Demon Lord smiled and said, "I almost forgot, you guys are different from before."
Ning Ping smiled and said nothing.
"But there is one thing I still want to say: If you don't surrender, none of you will survive when the city is destroyed."
The red-sleeved demon king looked at the city, but in fact his eyes were not on Ningping, but on Xie Nandu, which was further away.
"Don't worry, if the city was really broken, we would be dead."
Ning Ping shook his head and said: "If you are really afraid of death, what are you doing here?"
The Red-sleeved Demon Lord said softly: "You can't defend it."
As the leader of the demon army said these words, several terrifying auras filled the sky above the demon army behind her.
They were a group of demon kings, the number of which was staggering.
What is the power of a whole family? Now this is called the power of a whole family.
However, a sword light flashed across the city in an instant. A young great swordsman rubbed his nose, appeared on the city, and said with a smile: "Anyway, I can kill a few."
A Taoist priest appeared and looked ahead.
The master of Wantian Palace.
A middle-aged scholar opened his tired eyes.
Beside him, there was a great swordsman holding a flying sword with a blade as thin as a cicada's wings.
Further away, several old swordsmen with withered faces looked at each other and smiled.
Obviously, the number of Wangyouzu is still not as large as that of the monsters over there, but no one feels scared.
The Red-Sleeved Demon Lord did not speak, but several more terrifying auras appeared in the sky.
That is a being above the demon king. Even the demon clan doesn't know how to call that kind of existence, so it can only temporarily call it the four-character Fuyun Great Demon.
If it is the end of Wangyou, the human race can still forcefully support it, but what about above Wangyou?
How to like?
These terrifying auras are filling the air. Do any of these people at the top of the city dare to say that they can fight?
Yu Xiyi twitched the corner of his mouth with a look of disdain.
So what if my level is not as good as yours? I still disdain you.
However, that terrifying aura still weighed on everyone's hearts.
It wasn't until the next moment that a sword light broke through the sea of clouds and chopped up a large piece of demonic energy, and everyone felt extremely relieved.
A tall man appeared on the top of the city. He stood with his hands behind his hands. His long hair was draped over his shoulders, and his hair was mixed with black and white.
As soon as he appeared, it was like a real unsheathed sword appeared between heaven and earth, extremely sharp!
In the past thousand years, when it comes to the level of swordsmanship, there may be some doubts about who is the leader, but when it comes to swordsmanship, who has the highest level and the most lethality, there is no doubt that it is this person.
The sect leader of this generation of the Sword Sect, truly the best swordsman in the world!
He appeared at the top of the city, and everyone was calm.
Then on the two sides, one on the left and one on the right, is a scholar and an old man.
Three people support the clouds.
Although the number of people is still not large enough,... at least it is much better than the situation in the first battle when the Chen Dynasty was alone and unable to support itself.
The Red Sleeve Demon Lord just watched quietly without speaking.
Because the protagonist hasn't appeared yet.
Sure enough, at this moment, a young man in black clothes slowly appeared at the top of the city. He glanced at the red-sleeved demon king on the ground, and then at the looming demon army in the distance.
Not long ago, the young man who had strolled past the demon army took out a breath and calmly said: "Try it."
