At sunset, a flying horseman came from a distance to the north of the city gate. This time, the sound of the horse's hooves was particularly clear, and it could even be said that it was a little panicked.
Ao Junxie stared closely at the visitor, and from the rapid breathing of the messenger on the horse, he had a premonition that something was unusual.
The result of the long wait has finally arrived.
In front of the city gate, before the horse could stop, the soldier had already jumped down from above, fell to his knees in front of Ao Junxie, and said loudly:
"Report to your lord, the blue-eyed woman from the Temple of Light has finally found her whereabouts! At noon today, the soldiers at the border saw her appearing at the border between Fengyun and Nanzhao.[
It’s just that the opponent is too strong, and even the dozen of us who are at the Spiritual King level were not able to stop her. Instead, we were seriously injured by her spiritual power!”
After hearing this, Aojunxie's face changed drastically and he asked hurriedly:
"Then where is she now?"
"After injuring all the generals of the country, more people were besieged. Seeing that the situation was not good, the woman had already broken through the border pass and rushed into the territory of Nanzhao!"
"Nanzhao Kingdom? What is the specific direction?"
"The capital of Nanzhao!"
"Nanzhao capital?" Ao Junxie repeated in a murmur.
"Exactly! We knew that this woman from the Bright Temple was of great importance, so we immediately gathered elite troops to pursue her. Unexpectedly, we were stopped by a group of your Nanzhao Imperial Guards a hundred miles away from the capital city of Nanzhao.
The opponent's weapons and equipment are well-equipped, and their strength is extraordinary. We were worried about the relationship between Fengyun and Nanzhao, so we did not dare to act rashly, so we had to return! It seems that they were the ones who rescued the blue-eyed woman!"
"The Royal Forest Army? They must be led by members of the Nanzhao royal family! Do you know who the general is at the head of that elite group of soldiers?"
"It's... the seventh prince of Nanzhao, Nangong Jinsheng!"
A look of surprise flashed across Ao Junxie's eyes.
"Is it him?"
In Ao Junxie's impression, Nangong Jinsheng, the seventh prince of Nanzhao, had always been a gentle, sentimental and weak scholar. However, he did not expect that after not seeing him for a long time, he could actually act as a military commander and defeat his own enemies.
This made Ao Junxie want to find out more and more.
"No! We must not let the people from the Bright Temple collude with those from the Nanzhao Kingdom!"
Ao Junxie muttered to himself, and then said to the messenger:
"Enter the city quickly, send orders to assemble the army, and set off immediately to the south early tomorrow morning to find important people from Nanzhao Kingdom!"
"yes!"[
The messenger cavalry galloped into the royal city.
Soon, hundreds of thousands of Fengyun troops gathered in the city overnight. The entire Fengyun King City was brightly lit all night long, preparing to attack Nanzhao Kingdom's weapons, equipment, and food.
Looking at the soldiers walking around in the city, Wu Mian came to Ao Junxie with some worry and asked carefully:
"Sect Master, are you really in such a hurry to attack Nanzhao?"
Ao Junxie nodded and said proudly:
"Exactly! Since this day is inevitable sooner or later, we might as well decide the outcome as soon as possible! In name, we are going to the Seventh Prince of Nanzhao to get the girl from the Bright Temple. If he insists on not handing it over, I, Ao Junxie, will just use
Stronger!"
"Then...should I inform Madam? She is currently at the Feng family's residence in the capital..."
Before Wu Mian could finish his sentence, Ao Junxie had already waved his hand to stop him. It seemed that he had already expected that the other party would have some concerns.
