"Is there any news from the Demon Emperor?" Zhong Ping asked.
Shaking his head, Leng Xuan said: "Not yet. The Demon Emperor said that Xue Hongliang has not looked for him since the last time we met. In my opinion, Xue Hongliang will not ask the Demon Emperor to come forward until the last moment."
Having said this, Leng Xuan smiled faintly and continued: "I am very interested. I want to know who is behind Xue Hongliang. He actually dares to play such a big game and let me and the Demon Emperor get deeply involved in the game."
Yan Chengfeng said: "This kind of person is either too courageous or has someone to rely on. In my opinion, that person should belong to the latter. Leng Xuan, please work hard these days and try to find Xue Hongliang's whereabouts and put him to death."
He brought it."
"I will." Leng Xuan responded.
After the agreement was reached, Leng Xuan got up and left the City Lord's Mansion, and returned to the secular world. Although he had been busy dealing with Huang Quan's affairs in the past two days, he would take the time to go back every day to see Ling Xuejiu and the fetus. For him,
This is the most important thing.
Two days passed in the blink of an eye.
More than two thousand cultivators have already begun to march towards Tianyang City. However, their marching speed is not very fast. They only advance two hundred miles every day and then stop and rest on the spot.
What makes Leng Xuan feel more at ease is that although these people are pointing at Tianyang City with fierce momentum, they do not disturb the people. They will not disturb the nearby residents wherever they pass, and they do not commit any crimes.
One of his subordinates came to Yan Chengfeng and said: "City Lord, I just received the news that the other party has approached five hundred miles from Tianyang City and is about to come into contact with our people."
Yan Chengfeng said coldly: "Send the order and be on guard immediately. As long as they dare to launch an offensive, there will be no mercy."
"Yes, sir."
"Leng Xuan, Senior Zhong, let's go take a look too."
"Okay." After saying that, Leng Xuan and the others left the city lord's palace and rushed towards their destination. Under Leng Xuan's leadership, it didn't take long for the three of them to arrive at a city five hundred miles outside Tianyang City.
This city named Qiuyan City is the only city north of Tianyang City. After passing through this city, you can approach Tianyang City. Therefore, Yan Chengfeng stationed 500 people here to defend against the enemy.
.
At this moment, hundreds of cultivators have gathered on the city wall, standing side by side, looking straight out of the city, all with stern expressions, waiting for the enemy's attack.
Leng Xuan, along with Yan Chengfeng and Zhong Ping, came to the city wall and looked into the distance. They saw nearly six to seven hundred cultivators a few miles away, approaching at a very slow speed.
"Lord City Lord, Lord Leng, Lord Zhong." At this time, a young man came over and bowed his hands to the three of them respectfully.
Yan Chengfeng nodded and asked, "Have you found any trace of Xue Hongliang?"
"My lord, not yet. According to the information I just found out, the person leading the team this time is named Hu Ying, who is Xue Hongliang's confidant."
While speaking, Leng Xuan suddenly noticed that the practitioners in the distance had stopped moving forward and began to set up tents on the spot. Judging from their appearance, it seemed that they wanted to build a temporary camp.
"It seems we can't fight today." Zhong Ping said.
The young man suggested: "Lord City Lord, since they are not attacking, we might as well take the initiative and catch them off guard before they can gain a foothold."
Hearing this, Yan Chengfeng did not respond. Instead, he turned to look at Leng Xuan beside him and asked, "What do you think?"
