Chapter 97 The Great War Begins
The January period is getting closer and closer, and Zhongzhou Continent seems to be covered by a shadow.
On April 26, as soon as a ray of sunshine appeared in the sky, the sound of roosters crow could be heard everywhere.
A bird flew across the sky and flew towards Longling Pass.
Longling Pass, City Lord's Mansion.
The bird landed outside the city gate, and a group of people walked down from it and walked straight into the city lord's palace.
"You are?"
As everyone was about to walk inside, they were stopped by someone on the side.
I saw one of them handing a sign directly to the guard and waiting aside.
After seeing the sign handed out, the guards bowed directly and saluted: "Your Excellency."
The people from the Valley of Two Realms did not make things difficult for these people. They took back the sign and walked directly into the city lord's mansion.
"It seems that they are the masters who have come to assist Longling Pass." The guards looked happy. The more masters there are at Longling Pass, the more their safety can be guaranteed.
…………
"Someone is coming." Wu Qi sensed that several warriors from the Creation Realm had entered the City Lord's Mansion.
Not long after, four figures walked into the main hall of the City Lord's Mansion.
"Elder Yang?" The leader of the four is Yang Xiong, the inner elder of the Two Realms Valley, while the other three are all at the middle stage of the Creation Realm. With the arrival of the four, the strength of the City Lord's Mansion has been greatly strengthened.
.
Yang Xiong is about forty years old, and he can be perfectly described by four words: vigorous and energetic. This time it was Yang Xiong who took the initiative to apply for a city pass in the central part of the country, and Longling Pass was his first choice.
"Why, you're not welcome?" Yang Xiong said with a smile outside the door.
"Senior Brother Wu!" said the three Creation Realm warriors beside Yang Xiong.
Wu Qi quickly turned sideways: "Senior, please come in, all junior brothers please."
Xu Qingfeng and Liu Fuyue also stood up at this time and bowed to the people coming from the Two Realms Valley. After all, they were indeed much younger than these people.
When Yang Xiong came in, he looked at Xu Qingfeng and Liu Fuyue with a smile on his face. The main reason why he came to Longling Pass was because of these two people. He had heard about these two people when he was guarding the barrier in Wangyuan.
Name, I want to see what the future pillar of the Valley of Two Realms will look like.
Yang Xiong sat directly next to the main seat. After all, Wu Qi was the first person in charge of Longling Pass. He was just here to help out and must not usurp the guest.
After everyone was seated, Wu Qi took the main seat.
"Elder Yang, who are these three junior brothers?" After all, Wu Qi has been staying at Longling Pass and has not been back to the Valley of Two Realms for a long time. It is normal not to know these people.
"These three are Zhang Tinghan, Wang Ming, and Qi Li. The three of them have been stationed with me in Wangyuan these years." Yang Xiong introduced the three of them one by one.
The three of them all clasped their fists and saluted. The three of them had also heard of Senior Brother Wu Qi's name a long time ago, and countless people from the Demon Sect died at his hands.
"These two are Xu Qingfeng and Liu Fuyue." Wu Qi pointed at Xu Qingfeng and Liu Fuyue and said with a smile.
Zhang Tinghan and the three of them also clasped their fists at Xu Qingfeng and Liu Fuyue who were sitting opposite each other: "I have heard of the names of the two of you a long time ago, and when I saw them today, they are indeed the best among people."
Xu Qingfeng and Liu Fuyue hurriedly returned the greeting: "Brothers, this is serious." According to the regulations of the Two Realms Valley, seniority needs to be divided according to realm. In fact, Xu Qingfeng and Liu Fuyue who have broken through the realm of creation should normally call Wu Qi and Guan
Cheng and others were senior brothers, but they were too lazy to change their words, so they kept calling him the same as before.
"As per the old rules, all three of you take out your tokens and let City Master Wu verify your identity." Yang Xiong said to Zhang Tinghan and the other three, while he also took out a token from his arms.
The four tokens all have the word Longling written on them, and their names are written on the back, which all represent their identities.
After Wu Qi verified their identities, "I will assign your tasks to you later. As for Elder Yang, I will sit in Longling Pass and control everything in Longling Pass." Wu Qi said.
"We will follow City Lord Wu's arrangements!" Zhang Tinghan and the others returned to their original positions and sat down.
Xu Qingfeng and Liu Fuyue appear to be Ximen guarding Longling Pass, but in fact their real mission is to kill the demons in the Creation Realm, especially the geniuses of the demon clan.
"In this way, I can have an idea of the specific strength of the three of you." Wu Qi asked Zhang Tinghan and the others.
Zhang Tinghan was the first to speak: "I am in the middle stage of the Creation Realm, I understand the meaning of the sword, and I am at the second level of Yuan Shen."
Wang Ming then said: "I am in the middle stage of the Creation Realm, and I understand the artistic conception of power. My physical body is equivalent to the level of the Perfect Creation Realm, the level of the soul."
Qi Li also said: "I am also in the middle stage of the Creation Realm. I have understood the Thunderous Concept and am at the second level of Yuanshen. Speed is my strong point. I can dodge three thousand meters in a flash."
The three of them are all very powerful and worthy of being disciples of the Valley of Two Realms.
After hearing Qi Li's introduction, Xu Qingfeng was surprised and said: "I didn't expect that Senior Brother Qi is so fast and can reach the upper-middle level in the Perfection of Creation."
When Xu Qingfeng was on the second level of Yuanshen, his speed was only slightly faster than that of Senior Brother Qi Li. If he hadn't obtained the Yang Pearl, he would never have been able to improve so quickly.
"Yes, the three of you are all very capable. I will arrange the tasks for you later." Wu Qi said with satisfaction. Among the three, Zhang Tinghan is obviously weaker than the other two, but this person seems to be the other two.
The backbone of the army must have its advantages, and it still needs to be observed. Qi Li is good at speed, so it is most suitable for him to rescue various places. As for Wang Ming, just let him stop the enemy on the battlefield.
…………
"Waiter, bring me a pot of good wine and some of the most expensive dishes!" said a man in black at a restaurant in Yizhou City.
"Okay!" There was a sad look on the waiter's face. In the past few days, the number of guests in Yizhou City has decreased by almost half. At this time, there are only four or five tables of guests in the restaurant. If it is still like this in another month, it is estimated that
He is about to be fired again. He has changed several jobs in the past ten days and he cannot survive this day.
The man with black spots is Xu Qingfeng who changed his appearance. Yizhou City and Longlingguan are adjacent cities, and the city in the middle has been on high alert these days.
Separation is strict, and there are too few guests coming and going.
"In addition to killing the incoming Creation Realm demons, my mission is to rescue five nearby cities. I didn't expect that the number of people has already dropped so much before the war officially started."
Xu Qingfeng drank some wine and ate side dishes, and the power of his soul covered the streets on both sides. "Didn't you say that there are disciples of the Demon Sect nearby?"
Xu Qingfeng's Yuanshen realm has reached the third level of perfection, covering a wide range.
Half an hour later.
"This guest has been eating for a long time. I'll go up and have a look." The waiter walked from the first floor to the second floor.
Where is the figure of the man in black? There is no one on the second floor, except for three taels of silver placed on the wine table where the man in black is.
………
On April 28th, the four major sects officially ordered that the human race people in the more than a dozen city gates in the southernmost edge were to evacuate and move all to the rear. Several cities in the north were also asked to abandon. Only the central area remained unchanged.
Instead, countless experts gathered towards the middle.
In the early morning of April 28th, more than a dozen cities in the south were in chaos. Although many families had already heard some news, they were in the minority after all.
"The demons are really coming?"
"Why did we abandon our homeland without even fighting?"
"If we leave here, where can we go?"
There are almost half a million people in the dozen or so cities. If so many people don't leave, they will definitely be slaughtered by the demons, but many of them have lived here for generations.
Even if the family's foundation is here, they have no choice but to leave their hometown. Most of these people are Qi Condensation Realm and ordinary people. They tie precious things and used objects to oxcarts. The men all carry baggage, and the women carry the bags.
Take the children with you and follow the prescribed path to leave your original hometown.
"Weeping for these innocent people." Elder Lu Li stood on the back of a bird and looked at the crowds of people below. "There are more mountain peaks and sea areas in the south. With so many people traveling, it will probably take two months.
It will take a long time to reach the designated place, and I don’t know how many people’s bodies will be buried in other places.”
"There is no other way. If they don't evacuate, they will only die." Qi Tong said next to Lu Li.
The two of them are the people sent by the Valley of Two Realms to guard the retreating team this time. They want to ensure the safety of these people to avoid being killed by the demons.
Of course, the four major forces have all sent personnel, but it is destined that many people will die on this long migration road.
"I hope to see complete peace in the world in my lifetime!" Elder Lu Li sighed.
Qi Tong is very optimistic: "We, the human race, will definitely win."
Lu Li nodded: "I hope so."
May 20th, the sun shines brightly, but this day is the darkest day in the history of the human race. On this day, the demon army crossed the Abyss of Forgetfulness and fully attacked the human territory, and the war between humans and demons officially began.
Chapter completed!
