Chapter One Hundred and Twenty Nine Fires Burning the Sky
"You can't say that. There must be top forces secretly involved! Otherwise, the Maoshan bandits alone cannot control so many strange beasts!"
Seeing the answer from Patriarch Zengkong, Mrs. Tulip couldn't help but frown and reminded her.
"That's right..." Ancestor Xiankong was startled and then began to think solemnly.
Wu Xin asked in a deep voice: "What top force?"
Mrs. Tulip responded without hesitation: "There are five sects of the Righteous Way and four sects of the Demon Sect. It is also possible for the Buddhist Sect, but the possibility is very low. I guess the Buddhist Sect would like our army to destroy the Hades Palace, or for our Holy Sect to fight against the Demon Sect.
You must estimate the character and sense of justice of those bald donkeys!”
"Among the five sects of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, is there anyone who is good at controlling beasts?" Wu Xin asked thoughtfully.
Mrs. Tulip spat with cross eyes: "There is no Zhenzong treasure book or direct line power. However, each of the five sects of the Righteous Path is a behemoth with countless side branches and affiliated forces. There must be one! For example, the Pluto Palace has always been famous for its defense.
, with tens of thousands of disciples, there must be beast tamers. In addition, among the forces in Maoshan, who dares not to listen to the Pluto Palace? Is there still a shortage of beast tamers? "
"Animal Tamer..."
Wu Xin murmured with emotion, and then said in a different tone: "This opportunity is rare! If a war breaks out, if possible, grab a few more mounts. The war horses are still too weak and cannot withstand much!"
Before, Wu Xin had no idea about animal trainers and didn't pay enough attention to them.
The beast tamer is actually a kind of literary cultivator, but he is a little unprofessional. Now, seeing the beast army, Wu Xin's thoughts are naturally different!
It's rare to see so many strange animals at night, it would be a pity to miss it.
Normally, strange beasts are difficult to find and even harder to catch. It would be tragic if a terrifying beast is accidentally introduced. There is no reason for the ferocious beasts, and there are many powerful ones.
Mrs. Tulip pursed her lips slightly and spat angrily: "My lord, you really have a leisurely mind! Let's wait and see if we can survive this disaster!"
Wu Xin silently took out the bow of the other side, bent the bow and set an arrow, pointing straight at the night sky...
"Hey..."
There was a scream that cracked the sky, and a purple-winged eagle king fell from the sky like a meteorite and fell into the village.
The explosive sound of the bow string and the sound of sharp arrows piercing the air were heard just now. One can imagine the speed and power of the arrows!
There was a chaos of flying birds in the sky, including golden-winged rocs, sky-turning eagles, iron-winged falcons and other exotic birds. They quickly flew high and disappeared from Wu Xin's sight.
Even the land beasts were in a commotion. Most of the beasts quickly retreated into the herd and no longer showed up as strongly as before.
Obviously, these strange beasts are somewhat intelligent and are not as miserable as the ancestors said.
Of course, the ancestor of Xingkong is in the late stage of god refining, so he is indeed qualified to ignore any strange beast present!
"Done!"
Wu Xin sent people to subdue the purple-winged eagle king, and said excitedly and expectantly. He paused, looked at Mrs. Tulip with a smile and said:
"If there is no accident, we won't need Senior Qiu's hard help in the future to be able to fly! It's a pity that the Golden-winged Dapeng is not sure!"
Mrs. Tulip's colorful ripples curled her lips and reminded her: "Let's wait until we can surrender! If ferocious beasts, strange beasts, etc. were so easy to surrender, they would have been captured long ago! If the ancestors or ethnic groups behind them were provoked, the master would be waiting to escape and be captured.
Let’s hunt him down all over the world!”
Wu Xin frowned and remained silent. His confidence in surrender came from his own spiritual talent. It also came from the control and communication obtained from the "Devil Sutra"!
The Heart-Eating Ancestor glared at Madam Tulip and comforted her: "Don't listen to Daoist Qiu's nonsense! They took the initiative to attack this time, and they can't even settle the score on you! Truly powerful beings are wise and have more scruples. No scruples.
There is no need to worry about the beasts!"
"County Magistrate Wu! I, the King of Hades, will be the peacemaker. The two sides will just let it go and continue to coexist peacefully. How about peaceful coexistence? Magistrate Wu, are you willing to give me this face?"
At this moment, a calm and clear voice spread throughout Yuzhen Mountain.
Among the overwhelming beasts, ten people appeared, including monks, Taoists, Confucianists, and people of different robes.
As soon as they appeared, there were ten ancestors, twice as many as Jurong's army, not counting the hidden men.
"Venerable Earth, the third elder of the Hades Palace, Ruan Chong!" Zhang Qing reminded him in a low voice in time.
"Really? You, the Pluto Palace, have such a big reputation? Can you make the Maoshan bandits never leave Maoshan again, harm the country, and disrupt Jurong County?"
Wu Xin had a sneer on his face and Luck said loudly.
A dozen sharp eyes quickly locked onto Wu Xin.
Ruan Chong responded with an unhappy tone: "There are some things that everyone understands tacitly! We are just ordinary people in the world. Magistrate Wu, please don't use the official style of bullying others with big hats!"
"What happened? This county really doesn't know! What is certain is that this county went into the mountains this time to suppress bandits. The rest of the plunderers who have not come out of the mountains will not commit any crimes!"
Wu Xin responded loudly, and then Luck shouted a warning:
"If other forces participate, they will be regarded as enemies of the imperial court and may rebel. Even if the entire county is drained, the dirt will be cleared away and the splendid country of the Sui Dynasty will be restored!"
"Magistrate Wu is so powerful!" Ruan Chong mocked coldly.
"It doesn't matter whether you have official authority or not. But, tonight, if your Pluto Palace dares to participate in the battle, I, Wu Xin..."
Wu Xin's momentum exploded, and the flames all over his body illuminated one side, and he said solemnly: "I swear with my martial heart, I will lead my army to raze the Hades Palace in the future, no matter the cost!"
After a pause, he looked at the other ancestors and said coldly: "The same goes for other forces!"
"Humph!" Ruan Chong snorted angrily, but did not respond.
Taking an oath with a martial heart is generally the heaviest oath in the world. One can imagine Wu Xin’s determination!
"Ouch..."
A mighty tiger king looks up to the sky and roars, the sound shakes the mountains and forests, and echoes around the world.
It caused the overwhelming herd of beasts to stir, as if the heaven and earth were distorted, and there were also tigers and lions roaring like songbirds, the momentum was astonishing!
"The Tiger King's Roaring Heaven Technique?"
As the highest peak in Maoshan Mountain, everyone in Maoshan Mountain is no stranger to this method, but they didn’t expect that Wu Xin would learn it so quickly and be able to exert such powerful power!
"In the whole world, everything is the land of the king; on the shore of the land, there is nothing but the king's ministers!"
The magnificent and sonorous voice echoed in the mountains and forests, slowly sounded. Wu Xin looked at the mountains and forests in the distance and answered loudly:
"All things have animism! The beast race is also a big race. It should not participate in secular battles, let alone the battles of the world? Aren't you afraid that this county will burn down Maoshan with a fire?"
The tone was calm and tepid, but it deeply showed Wu Xin's anger and determination!
The majestic beast herd was slightly agitated, but not much retreat was seen. It was obvious that these beast herds were mainly controlled by the trainers and were not powerful exotic beasts.
"Burn down Maoshan?! What a loud tone!"
An old man wearing colorful robes spat coldly with disdain.
"Dead Leaf Pond, Old Man Ye!" Zhang Qing reminded him in time.
Jiuyang Cave and Luoye Pond, which are likely to be the first targets of the Jurong Army tomorrow, are participating this time, and the ancestors are dispatched!
"The whole army is ready!"
Wu Xin was too lazy to answer Old Man Ye and directly shouted the order.
The whole army is prepared, the giant shield soldiers raise their shields, and the pike soldiers raise their spears, all for defense from above.
The Feng Ya army bent their bows and set up arrows, pointing directly outside the stronghold, and they were all... rockets and arrows wrapped around flammable materials!
Even the Xinwu Guards and their reserve troops, as well as the Yinquan Valley men, all held weapons, and the archers also carried rockets.
Even the twenty catapults and giant ballistae in the village were entangled with flammable materials!
"shoot!"
Commander Wu Long shouted loudly.
The bow strings are vigorous and the instruments are roaring.
Thousands of arrows were fired together, carrying thousands of blazes, and turned into meteors and thrown out in a shower of fire. The target was not the herd of animals, but the woods outside the village.
There were even huge rocks and giant crossbows wrapped in flames, roaring out and rushing straight into the mountains and forests, with the force of meteors falling from the sky and the heavenly fire descending.
Burn the forest!
In this world, it may be incredible, it may be crazy, it may provoke the heaven and earth, the mountain gods, etc.
However, in Wu Xin's mind, it's really no big deal!
If you can't conquer it, just burn it all with fire. What's the use of keeping a big den of thieves that does more harm than good and can't even be used as a tourist attraction?
"Rumble..."
The beasts rioted, roaring and terrorizing the night.
Since animals are naturally afraid of fire, such a huge fire is enough to disrupt the herd!
Thousands of arrows fell, as well as debris, dry matter, etc. that had been scattered by the Jurong army in advance.
Clusters of flames sprouted up and gradually connected into one, causing the temperature to rise sharply in the dim and cool night, and the firelight reflected the sky.
In the firelight, Wu Xin's red fire lingered, his temperament was arrogant, and he was as powerful as the Hellfire Demon. He looked towards the Hades Palace with sharp eyes... Ruan Chong, the Venerable Earth, was quite provocative.
dare?!
There is nothing that the martial demon dare not do, it just depends on whether the Hades Palace dares to take action!
Ruan Chong's heart trembled. Even he, the leader of the main battle lineage in the Hades Palace, felt a little palpitated under Wu Xin's momentum and contempt!
After all, Wu Xin is the magistrate of Wu County. If the Pluto Palace breaks up with him and cannot kill him tonight, he will definitely become a serious problem for the Pluto Palace!
Apart from anything else, as long as Magistrate Wu is desperate and orders the mountain to be set on fire, can the Hades Palace still be able to break out of Maoshan and destroy Jurong County?!
This is what Ruan Chong is most afraid of, and it is one of the real reasons why Jianghu forces nominally obey the jurisdiction of the imperial court.
The whole world is the land of the king; the shores of the land are the ministers of the king!
It’s not just talk!
In silence, Ruan Chong and the four ancestors quickly retreated and disappeared.
Only Ancestor Jiuyang, Ancestor Wanye and other Maoshan Ancestors are left, as well as a huge herd of beasts and many manpower, which are enough to deal with the Jurong Army! There is no need for the Hades Palace to take action personally, so as not to leave any clues!
"kill!"
Ancestor Jiuyang's face was gloomy, his eyes were wild and he shouted loudly.
Ancestor Jiuyang and others were also a little afraid. However, they had no choice.
Because if Wu Xin doesn't compromise, after tonight, it will be the end of their Jiuyang Cave, Luoye Pond and other bandit villages. Naturally, they will not just sit back and die!
"Boom, boom, boom..."
Beasts roar and birds chirp, breaking the wind like waves.
Various sounds converged into a majestic momentum, and the overwhelming herd of beasts rushed towards Yuzhen Village together with overwhelming momentum!
Countless bows and arrows all turned around and pointed at the swooping birds.
Countless torches were thrown from the wall of the village, fell on the debris piled outside the village, and quickly turned into a sea of fire!
Jurong Army's tactics are very simple, just one word...
fire!
