In the barracks of Xuan Xiao's army, Xuan Xiao was very angry.
It was very dull in the military camp.
According to the normal plan, Xuan Xiao felt that he should already be at the top of Ceres City at this time!
As a result, now, it is all because of those ten thousand sword cultivators! That caused my own battle to fail!
After returning to the camp, Xuan Xiao's intelligence department already knew who the man was.
The sword cultivator at the head is Su Li, the escaped consort of the Ten Thousand Monster Kingdom!
The sword cultivator who once broke through Yuanxia City with one sword!
The guy who made the entire Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom gnash their teeth!
He was the man who held the Second Prince Bai Yu's army at Hangu Pass for two days and two nights!
It's not that Xuan Xiao has never heard of Su Li's rumors, but Xuan Xiao feels that Su Li's rumors are too exaggerated.
But now, Xuan Xiao knows that he was wrong.
This Su Li's strength is extremely exaggerated!
It’s okay to exaggerate his strength, after all, he was actually somewhat prepared in his mind.
But what surprised Huanhuo the most was the army of 10,000 sword cultivators brought by Su Li.
That army is too strong!
You have to think of a way yourself.
This does not mean that Xuan Xiao cannot defeat this army.
No matter how special and powerful the opponent is, they only have 10,000 sword cultivators.
And it can be seen that the 10,000 sword cultivators still lack combat experience and are relatively unfamiliar and immature to the battlefield.
Although Su Li and these ten thousand sword cultivators caught him off guard.
But the advantage is still with you. You still have a traitor in Ceres City, and Ceres City will eventually fall into your hands! This is a fact that cannot be changed! Everything is just a matter of time!
But what Xuan Xiao was thinking about was how to kill Su Li and wipe out the army of 10,000 sword cultivators!
Otherwise, when this army grows up, the consequences will be really unimaginable!
At that time, it will definitely cause great trouble to the Ten Thousand Monster Kingdom!
"Everyone, is there any way to deal with this Su Li and the thousands of sword cultivators he leads?"
Xuanxiao scanned the entire audience.
As soon as Xuan Xiao finished speaking, everyone lowered their heads and fell into deep thought.
Killing Su Li is definitely not a simple matter.
And it would be even more troublesome to annihilate that Wan Jian army with extremely terrifying combat capabilities.
"General, I have a plan!"
Just when Xuan Xiao's staff were silent, a captain stood up and spoke.
After understanding all the situation in Cereshen City and taking complete control of Cereshen City, Su Li gave a speech to the monks of Wanjian Army.
In this speech, Su Li said that he was no longer their master, they had all left the army, and Wan Jianjun would become a real army from today on.
And he is their commander.
In the army, there is no longer any master-student relationship.
In fact, from Su Li's point of view, although he taught these sword cultivators how to practice swordsmanship, in fact, Su Li never considered himself their master.
At best, I am just an instructor.
It's just that when they called themselves master, they didn't object. Over time, they seemed to be their disciples.
In fact, none of them had ever performed the apprenticeship ceremony for themselves.
In ancient times, the apprenticeship ceremony was very strict. Without the apprenticeship ceremony, it basically did not count as a master-disciple relationship.
As for Su Li's speech, Wan Jianjun was quite surprised that he suddenly lost his master.
But it was also within everyone’s expectations.
Because in the army of Qi State, there really cannot be a master-student relationship, only a superior-subordinate relationship, otherwise it will be difficult to manage.
But no matter what, for these sword cultivators, they will definitely remember the kindness Su Li taught them!
I will never forget it for the rest of my life.
However, many female sword cultivators in the Ten Thousand Sword Army were very happy after the master-disciple relationship with Su Li was completely gone.
He was a master and apprentice before, so he definitely couldn't bully his master and destroy his ancestors.
But now, we no longer have a master-disciple relationship, so that doesn’t matter, right?
Who says subordinates can't eat their boss's mouth?
And when many female sword cultivators had different thoughts, Su Li continued:
"Because from today on, you will enter the battlefield.
Xia Liuliu, your empress of Qi Kingdom, originally trained you as weapons.
But I don't think so.
Therefore, I will give you a chance to choose.
You can choose to leave, leave the Ten Thousand Sword Army, and leave the army. As for where you want to go in the future, I won't care, as long as you don't defect to the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom.
You can stay too!
After you stay, you will become a soldier!
You will fight for Wanfa Tianxia and fight for Qianlingzhou!
Your military exploits can be exchanged for countless resources.
But what I want to tell you is this!
You will die!
This is a very cruel thing and a very realistic thing.
You may die, and I may die!
We are all likely to die in a war.
We will watch our comrades die one by one!
Perhaps in the end, when you hold a long sword and stand on the vast battlefield, looking at the battlefield full of corpses and the land stained red with blood, you will feel hesitant, you will feel empty, and you will doubt yourself.
!
It is very likely that in the end, only one of us will be left, and the remaining person will face the loneliness of losing a friend.
so!
Make your choice.
Should I join this Ten Thousand Sword Army, or quit.
Everything, everything is decided by you!"
After speaking, Su Li stopped talking and turned to leave. Everything that followed was left to them to think about. No one could make a decision for them.
"Su Li, as expected, you are still so kind."
Zhao Lingxue followed Su Li, looked at Su Li's profile and said.
"Kind?"
Su Li shook his head and sighed.
"Lingxue, I'm just looking for an excuse for myself.
They will die.
Just like I said before.
Each of us can die.
The battlefield is a huge meat grinder that will not let anyone go easily.
I just want to make myself feel more at ease.
When the number of Wan Jianjun becomes smaller and smaller, I may be able to convince myself this way.
‘Oh, it’s all their choice. I’ve told them before, so if they die, they have nothing to do with me.’”
Zhao Lingxue shook her head with a smile, stretched out her hand and gently touched Su Li's cheek:
"Su Li, that's not the case.
Although my father often says that you are out of touch and have some strange ideas, people often say that you look like a street gangster.
But Su Li, you are really, really kind.
The words you said are just that you want them to go away and let them live.
I know.
Even if you say this today, even if they choose to stay, what if something happens to them one day?
You will still be sad, blame yourself, and feel guilty.
Because Su Li, you are such a kind person."
Su Li gave Wan Jianjun's sword cultivators a day and night to think.
Tomorrow morning, they will have to make a decision, whether to stay or to leave.
And on this night, none of the monks in Wan Jianjun fell asleep.
They are really thinking.
Thinking about what Su Li, who has changed from master to general today, said.
For these disciples of Wan Jianjun.
If Su Li didn't give them a choice, maybe they wouldn't think about this matter.
They may never think about this until they die.
Because as soon as they entered the Wanjian Army, they knew that they were being trained as soldiers!
At that time, they didn't have much idea, they just thought it would be great to have countless resources to practice.
And they gradually accepted their identity as Wan Jianjun.
Afterwards, Su Li took them to Hangu Pass.
Rather than saying that they had witnessed the cruelty on the battlefield, it was better to say that they had seen Su Li's power.
"Can a sword cultivator be so powerful?"
"Can I become as powerful as Master?"
This heroic feeling filled their hearts and became their motivation in the future.
After all, they did not personally enter the battlefield.
And this time.
When these sword cultivators, who finally got out of their own way of swordsmanship, came to this battlefield, personally joined the battlefield, and experienced everything on the battlefield for themselves.
In their hearts, something called "fear" is slowly growing.
Will die.
I will really die!
It turns out that I am so close to death.
As long as he is on the battlefield, he is not the pride of heaven.
You can throw away your life anytime, anywhere.
So they are afraid.
But these sword cultivators don't want to let themselves think about that.
Because he is Wan Jianjun.
And most importantly, I have no choice.
If that's the case, then don't think about it yourself and just participate in every battle by yourself.
The result was unexpected.
Su Li gave them the right to continue to choose.
And when they have the right to choose, they will think about it.
Thinking about whether to stay in Wan Jianjun or leave
"Jusu, do you want to keep it?"
On a wall of Cereshen City, Hu Chen walked up to Ju Su and asked.
"Yes." Jusu glanced at Hu Chen, then turned his head and nodded, "I want to stay."
"But Jusu, you will die." Hu Chen couldn't bear to look at the woman in front of him.
"Hu Chen, everyone will die."
Jusu raised her head and looked at the starry sky.
"I am an orphan. Her Majesty the Empress picked me up and gave me the opportunity to join the Wanjian Army. Otherwise, I would have starved to death.
My life belongs to Her Majesty the Empress.
So I want to repay the favor.
Moreover.
All my skills were taught by my master and general.
If it weren't for the general, I wouldn't be where I am now.
I can't leave and I have no reason to leave."
"Is this really the case?" Hu Chen looked at the woman in front of him.
"Hu Chen, what do you mean?" Ju Su turned her head and looked at Hu Chen doubtfully.
"Jusu, you like the general, right?" Hu Chen said slowly.
"Hu Chen! You, what are you talking about! I don't like the general!" Ju Su turned her head away with a red face, "I, I don't like the general."
"No, you like it." Hu Chen shook his head.
"Hu Chen, you are so weird today. I didn't like it even after I said I didn't like it. What reason do you have for saying that I like the general? Do you have any evidence?"
Jusu's tone was a little angry, as if Hu Chen was so unreasonable and what was he saying out of nowhere?
"I have no evidence." Hu Chen still just shook his head, "But I just know because I like you."
"Eh?"
Listening to Hu Chen's words, Jusu suddenly froze and looked at Hu Chen with blinking eyes.
"Hu Chen, you, do you know what you are going to say?"
"I know."
Hu Chen nodded and looked directly into Jusu's eyes.
"Jusu, I like you, I like your cheerfulness, your innocence, your kindness, and the way you look in your sword uniform and black stockings.
Because I like you and watch you every day, so I know who you like."
"me."
Jusu's mind turned white for a moment and she didn't know what to say now.
"Jusu, you don't need to answer. I know that you don't actually like me in your heart. I don't expect your answer now.
Tonight, I just want to express my feelings, because I'm afraid I won't have a chance in the future.
If you want to stay, I will stay too!
I will protect you well!
You don't need to feel that you owe me anything, nor do you need to feel any burden. All this is just my wishful thinking.
I have already said what needs to be said.
That's it, you have a good rest."
Hu Chen said no more and turned to leave.
Looking at Hu Chen's leaving figure, Jusu's eyes blinked slightly, and Jusu didn't know what to do.
For Jusu, this was the first time she had been confessed by someone. At this time, Jusu's mind was empty, and she knew that Hu Chen's figure had disappeared from her sight.
Jusu didn't even react.
"Stop hiding, come out." Just as Hu Chen turned a corner, he stopped and said.
From the darkness, a person slowly walked out.
This person is Chen Dong.
"You heard everything." Hu Chen turned around and asked.
"Yes." Chen Dong nodded.
"You also like Jusu, right?" Hu Chen said directly.
"Yes." Chen Dong didn't hesitate at all.
"Then you're not going to confess your love? Are you just here to eavesdrop?" Hu Chen's eyes were calm.
"I" Chen Dong lowered his head, looking a little confused.
"Ah."
Hu Chen smiled disdainfully, said no more, and walked forward when a voice came from behind him.
"I admired your figure when you passed the General's test. At that moment, I realized that you are really a man.
But now, you are such a mother-in-law.
I feel ashamed for the general, how could he teach a disciple like you."
