Chapters 174 to 75: Strong outsiders and cadres in the middle (two-in-one chapters ask for a monthly
"Where is the Tianxia Alliance now?"
In Nanhai City, Yun Zun, who was supposed to be in seclusion to heal his wounds, now came out in person to take charge of the overall situation.
There is no way.
Baiyue City was actually destroyed, and his old friend Yuan Ji died in the hands of Shi Maha.
This news completely stunned him.
Speaking of personal strength.
Yun Zun believed that he was not much stronger than Yuan Ji.
at the same time.
When it comes to the overall strength of the Demon Suppressing Division, Nanhai City is not stronger than Baiyue City.
now.
Baiyue City was destroyed and Yuan Ji died in battle.
The army of the Tianxia Alliance is about to attack Nanhai City. It is impossible to say that you are not nervous.
Unless you take your own face into consideration.
now.
Yun Zun has already planned to temporarily evacuate with the people of the Suppressing Demon Division to avoid the edge of the Tianxia Alliance.
heard him ask.
Luo Jin, who is the chief steward of Nanhai City's Tianchao Guard, clasped his fists after hearing this and said: "After the Tianxia Alliance defeated Baiyue City, they barely stopped and continued to move towards Nanhai City with strong momentum.
So far, several cities within the jurisdiction of Nanhai City have been destroyed.
But among the many cities that were destroyed, only the people of the imperial court and the resisters were killed, and the remaining people were not harmed."
"Shi Maha really regards Nanyou Mansion as his own!"
Yun Zun's eyes were cold and cold.
The other party's approach is undoubtedly to win the hearts and minds of the people.
Attacking various cities in the Qin Dynasty, but only killing the resisters and people from the imperial court, without harming the people at all, this is an obvious way to win people's hearts.
If the news spreads, the resistance in each city will become weaker and weaker.
after all.
The momentum of the Tianxia Alliance is too strong, and when it comes to the point where nothing can be done, he believes that not many people will be willing to fight to the end.
Unless it is a certain death situation, then we will resist to the death.
An approach like the Tianxia Alliance can undermine the morale of each city to a great extent.
Immediately.
Yun Zun asked again: "From the other side of Broken Mountain City, is there any support coming now?"
"No news yet."
"What on earth is Ji Tianlu thinking? Could it be that he plans to wait until our Nanhai City is defeated before integrating all his forces to resist the Tianxia Alliance's offensive?"
Yun Zun felt very ridiculous.
Even though we have reached this point, Poshan City still doesn't move at all.
He couldn't help but doubt.
Did Ji Tianlu surrender to the enemy a long time ago, so he just sat back and watched the Tianxia Alliance capture various cities?
but.
Such an idea is just a random suspicion.
Yun Zun himself knows this very well.
Ji Tianlu has no possibility of betrayal.
at this time.
There are birds coming in from outside.
Luo Jin stretched out his hand, and the bird stayed on his hand obediently. Then he took off the bamboo tube tied to the bird's leg, waved his hand, and the bird left of its own accord.
In the main hall, everyone's eyes fell on Luo Jin.
Birds are one of the tools used by the Heavenly Inspector to communicate.
Any news coming at this time may affect the survival of Nanhai City.
Under the gaze of everyone.
Luo Jin opened the bamboo tube and read the contents inside, then his expression changed drastically.
"What happened?"
Yun Zun asked in a deep voice.
He had a bad premonition in his heart.
Luo Jin put down the bamboo tube in his hand and looked solemnly: "The news came from the capital. First of all, it is the identity of the leader of the Eternal Alliance. In fact, it is the leader of the Wuge Pavilion, Emperor Wu. Now Emperor Wu has betrayed the Demon Suppression Division and has been officially expelled."
"The Emperor Wu betrayed!"
Yun Zun's heart suddenly shook.
He and Ji Tianlu were from the same batch, and he also knew Emperor Wu.
This news was a big blow to him.
but.
Now that the situation in Nanhai City has reached this point, Yun Zun is more concerned about the following content than the news of Emperor Wu's betrayal.
"anything else?"
"Shen Changqing, the elder of the Martial Pavilion, became the new master of the Martial Pavilion, and——"
"And what?"
"Furthermore, the imperial court has ordered that Shen Changqing be appointed as the guardian envoy of Nanyou Mansion, with the right to make decisions on any matter in Nanyou Mansion!"
Luo Jin's face was solemn, and he was obviously in disbelief when he mentioned this matter.
Since the establishment of Nanyou Mansion.
There was no guardian envoy of Nanyou Mansion at all.
It’s not just Nanyou Mansion.
In the other eight prefectures of Great Qin, there is also no guardian envoy.
The Yun clan murmured to themselves: "This is the guardian envoy of Nanyou Mansion. He is clearly the master of Nanyou Mansion. His Majesty is actually willing to pay such a high price to win over Shen Changqing.
Is his strength really that strong?"
incredible.
But I have to believe it.
The information given by the capital will not be false, and the imperial court will not confer titles randomly.
It is now canonized.
That explains one thing.
Shen Changqing is indeed capable and qualified to serve as the guardian of Nanyou Mansion.
Yun Zun was not the only one shocked.
Xiang Yuan, who came to report the news, and the other garrison envoys of Nanhai City all looked shocked.
Luo Jin said: "I heard that the Eastern Guard highly praised Shen Changqing's strength, and judging from the news, the other party is also another powerful person in the realm of Grand Master since Shi Maha.
Such a strong person may actually have the strength to compete with Shakmaha, but that’s not certain.”
"I hope so!"
Yun Zun shook his head slightly.
Shen Changqing is in Poshan City, but there is no news from Poshan City. He is not sure what actions the newly promoted Nanyou Mansion envoy will take.
aside.
Fei Yun said: "Shen Changqing is the guardian of Nanyou Mansion, so it is absolutely impossible for him to allow our Nanhai City to be destroyed.
If Nanhai City is breached, he, as the garrison envoy, is also suspected of failing in his duties.
I'm afraid it will be difficult to explain to the court."
"Having said that, we can't put the news solely on Shen Changqing."
Yun Zun looked calm.
——
Broken mountain city.
At Shen Changqing's residence, Tian Kui, who often devours blood, has grown by leaps and bounds. Now, although he has not truly broken through to the master level, he is still almost the same.
not only.
Its body is also growing further.
Got to now.
Even if he can't compare with the Tiankui in Tianjing, he still has extraordinary momentum.
"Not bad!"
Shen Changqing looked at the majestic Tiankui in front of him and nodded with satisfaction.
Perhaps because his own blood carries the attribute of thunder, after the opponent often swallows the blood, the fur on his body will be stained with a faint purple color.
at the same time.
The copper bell-like eyes were also colored with a hint of purple.
A pair of wings seemed to be spread out to a length of about ten feet, and as they flapped, strong winds rose up, sweeping up all the dust.
first.
Shen Changqing sat on Tian Kui's back.
Then, he gently patted the other person's head and pointed in a direction.
"where to!"
Suddenly.
Tiankui's wings vibrated, and he lifted into the sky with Shen Changqing on his back, flying towards Nanhai City.
below.
When Tiankui took off, many people looked up to where they were in the sky and saw a huge ferocious beast spreading its wings and soaring.
But on the back of the ferocious beast, there was clearly a person sitting.
"Tiankui has really grown up!"
Seeing Shen Changqing riding Tiankui, Xun Qu felt a little envious in his eyes.
Owning a flying mount is something that most people dream of.
He also wanted to have it.
No way.
There are very few ferocious beasts that can fly, and the opening time of the heaven realm is not fixed. It is not easy to catch ferocious beasts like Tiankui.
at this time.
Shen Changqing was already riding Tiankui, straight into the sky.
It felt like being in the sky, and the gentle breeze blowing around me had turned into a strong wind.
If an ordinary person sits on Tiankui's back, he will fall down from the sky with just a slight blow from the wind.
but.
Shen Changqing's body sitting on Tian Kui's back was as still as Mount Tai.
No matter how violent the wind was, it could not shake him in the slightest.
"Flying high, the scenery you see is different!"
The thousands of mountains below were like flat ground, and Shen Changqing felt a different kind of emotion in his heart.
This feeling is completely different from traveling in the void.
But.
No matter how beautiful the scenery is, it will become boring if you look at it for a long time.
I watched it for a long time.
Shen Changqing felt that it was not interesting, so he looked again and his thoughts drifted to other places.
"I am now the guardian of Nanyou Mansion, and the power of the Demon Suppressor in Nanyou Mansion is, to a certain extent, a power that I can control.
The more power the Demon Suppressor retains, the greater the efficiency in capturing demons for me in the future.
Baiyue City has been defeated, but Nanhai City cannot be attacked by the Tianxia Alliance again, otherwise I will suffer a lot of losses.
As for whether it is easy to explain to the imperial court, that is secondary."
"in addition--"
"The time I agreed with Yuanyang Auction House is almost here. If I can solve the problem of Nanyou Mansion, I can return to the capital in time and complete the things I originally prepared.
Otherwise, we can only postpone it."
What happened at Yuanyang Auction House.
Shen Changqing also values it very much.
What is involved is not only a matter of money, but also related to one's own strength to a greater extent.
Silver coins from auction.
Not only can you purchase evil spirits in the Yuanyang auction house, but you can also purchase meritorious deeds.
Current achievements.
It no longer has a single function for him as before.
Quests are released in the Demon Suppression Department, and meritorious deeds are another way to exchange for demons.
and.
If you want to exchange demons from the Demon Sealing Tower, you will also need to spend a lot of merit.
Forget it.
Shen Changqing found that the more than two thousand meritorious deeds he carried in his arms were just a drop in the bucket.
Take back your thoughts.
Looking at the ground below, a smile appeared on his face involuntarily.
"In three years, I have officially established a foothold in Great Qin. Nanyou Mansion will be an important foundation for me. As long as I manage this place well, it will be impossible for the evil spirits in this mansion to escape my control.
Even the evil spirits from other provinces may become my prey."
This is not an exaggerated idea.
Shen Changqing believes it.
As long as you lay the foundation of Nanyou Mansion well, the rest of the things will be much simpler.
——
In the wilderness outside the city, there was a dense formation of troops.
That is the power that belongs exclusively to the Tianxia Alliance.
Today's Tianxia Alliance, after destroying many cities, is no longer the same force as before.
Not all the imperial troops will resist to the end.
In fact.
After the generals were beheaded, countless people surrendered.
That's exactly it.
Therefore, the power of the Tianxia Alliance is like a snowball, growing at a rapid rate.
Got to this moment.
The number of the army is approaching one million.
In the middle of the army.
Shimaha, dressed in white cassock, sat half-legged, with a gentle smile on his face, looking at the city in front of him, but not caring at all.
"All the magicians from Nanhai Town are here now?"
"According to the news, all the people from the Demon Division in Nanhai Town are already in the city ahead."
Next to him, a sect leader whispered.
Facing this Great Sun Tathagata, even a strong man in the master realm felt great pressure.
after all.
When Shimaha killed Yuan Ji, it was obvious to all.
Such strength.
It can be called crushing.
It was also with the existence of such strong men that the Tianxia Alliance was able to gain overwhelming power and swept through a large number of cities in Nanyou Mansion in a short period of time.
Hear the words.
Shi Maha nodded slightly: "Yes, the people in Nanhai City are quite courageous. After receiving the news, they did not abandon the city and flee, but came here.
I originally thought that they would either flee or wait for death in Nanhai City."
During the conversation.
There was still a smile on his face.
But in his smile, there was a lot of disdain for the magicians in Nanhai Town.
It is said that the Demon Suppression Division is as powerful as a cloud and has dominated the world for more than three hundred years.
but.
In front of him, the Demon-Suppressing Secretary was like a chicken or a dog.
Shimahe has already felt that Nanyou Mansion has a lot of luck, which is condensed in himself. When Nanyou Mansion is completely unified, his own luck will reach a peak.
"When that time comes—"
"This is the time for my real breakthrough!"
A cold light suddenly appeared in his eyes.
It has been silent for more than seven hundred years.
What I am doing is nothing more than to break the boundaries of the Grand Master and advance to a higher level.
More than seven hundred years ago.
I finally waited for this opportunity.
at the same time.
Shimaha also understood that he had no way out.
He only took two longevity fruits, and his life span was only extended by fifteen years.
Within fifteen years.
If you can no longer break the limit and advance to a higher level.
So.
You will truly become a sitting person.
More than 700 years ago, there was an opportunity to be reborn. Now, more than 700 years later, this opportunity will never come again.
Just think of this.
Shimaha looked at the city in front of him and was about to wave for the army to attack.
suddenly.
Someone ran over in a hurry, with obvious anxiety on his face.
"What happened?"
Shi Maha's expression remained unchanged and he asked calmly.
Hear the words.
The man took a breath, and then hurriedly replied: "There is news that the imperial court has appointed Shen Changqing as the guardian envoy of Nanyou Mansion!"
"Guardian Envoy of Nanyou Mansion!"
The back of Shi Maha, who was sitting half-lotus, straightened a little, and the gentle smile on his face disappeared.
Just from the name, he understood what the words "Guardian Envoy of Nanyou Mansion" actually represented.
Immediately.
Shi Maha returned to normal again, his tone as relaxed as ever.
"Great Qin is really a powerful force on the outside. A great grandmaster who has just made a breakthrough can actually be canonized as the guardian of Nanyou Mansion."
The smile on his face was a little more sarcastic.
The guardian envoy of Nanyou Mansion.
It is clear.
Da Qin wanted Shen Changqing to deal with him.
only--
Shi Maha shook his head slowly: "Sometimes the gap between great masters and great masters is much greater than they imagined."
Although this news surprised him.
But in fact.
Shimaha was not worried about this.
He is just a newly promoted grand master, so there is nothing to be afraid of.
If Da Qin really thinks that Shen Changqing can stop the progress of his world alliance, then he is too naive.
By then.
He will let everyone in the world understand.
Even if someone really breaks through to the realm of a great master, it is impossible for him to be able to compete with him.
"I will let them understand who is truly number one in the world!"
A smile appeared on Shimahe's lips.
He has never regarded Shen Changqing as an opponent.
In his opinion.
His real opponents are the world-famous Dongfang Zhao, the real leader of the Demon-Suppressing Division, and the Qin Emperor who suppressed the Qin Dynasty and did not take action for a long time.
Although Shi Maha was proud of himself.
But he also understands.
The strength of those two people in the rumors is by no means average.
In his current state, he may not really be his opponent.
but.
Judging from the news received.
Emperor Qin's longevity is approaching and he has not left the capital for a long time.
Even now, the barbarians and the Great Zhou are restless. They attacked the two mansions of the Great Qin, but neither of them made any move.
As for Dongfang Zhao.
The same is true for sticking to the country and not leaving.
In this case, Shimaha didn't have much to worry about.
The two most powerful people in the Qin Dynasty are both fettered by their own constraints and cannot leave the country. Unless it is a real life-or-death situation for the Qin Dynasty, neither of them will do anything.
certainly.
If Nanyou Mansion fell, he couldn't guarantee 100% that the two of them would still be able to sit still.
but--
As long as the entire Nanyou Mansion is occupied.
Shi Maha has the absolute confidence to break through the existing limits and advance to another level.
By then.
Even if Dongfang Zhao and Emperor Qin take action personally, he is not afraid at all.
Looking at the city ahead.
Shimaha waved his hand and said calmly: "Attack the city!"
It's different from the beginning.
As the Tianxia Alliance becomes more and more powerful, he rarely takes action himself.
Unless someone strong appears, similar to the level of a guardian envoy.
After all, he is such a strong man.
It is not something that ordinary armies and warriors can contend with.
If it weren't for the guardian envoy.
Shimaha just won't take action easily.
Strong.
He also has the bearing of a strong man.
——
"The Tianxia Alliance attacks!"
The sounds of killing outside the city and the evil aura condensed by the army made the situation change.
The moment the army attacked, Yun Zun knew it immediately.
When a middle-aged commander heard this, his gloomy face seemed to be filled with fear.
"The Tianxia Alliance now has hundreds of thousands of troops in its hands. Although each city is sending troops to support us, with our current strength, I am afraid that we may not be able to withstand it!"
Can't stop it!
That is the end of the city being destroyed and people being destroyed!
"If you can't stop me, you have to stop me. Raising troops for a thousand days and using them for a while. Now is the time for you to play your role."
Yun Zun looked indifferent, glanced at the commander, and then spoke.
"If you lose the war, it's good to be lucky enough to survive. Even if you die in battle, the court will still provide you with a pension. But if you run away from the battle, it will be a capital crime, and even your wife, children, and parents will be implicated.
Besides, even if the Tianxia Alliance is powerful, it may not be able to break the city immediately.
Now that the news of the siege has spread, I believe that it will not be long before a large army comes to help.
By then, the crisis will naturally be resolved."
For deserters.
The laws of Da Qin have always been very strict.
Hear the words.
The commander-in-chief looked startled and lowered his head: "Shou Yun is right."
"Now that the army is attacking the city, the general should go and supervise the battle!"
"That's fine."
Watch the other person leave.
Yun Zun shook his head secretly.
If you are timid before starting the battle, the possibility of being able to withstand the Tianxia Alliance's offensive will be even smaller.
But there is no way.
The city he is currently in is equivalent to the gateway to Nanhai City.
Once this place is broken, the Tianxia Alliance will be able to march straight in. When the time comes, the troops will go straight to Nanhai City, and there will no longer be any way out.
so.
Only Yunzun would bring people from the Demon Suppression Division here to help with the garrison.
No matter what, we must first curb the momentum of the Tianxia Alliance.
As for whether reinforcements are really coming.
to be honest.
He didn't have much confidence.
Fei Yun said in a deep voice: "The strength of the Tianxia Alliance is indeed strong, but as long as Shi Maha does not take action, it will not be easy for them to break the city. With our current strength, we can still delay it for a while."
"Shimaha relies on his own status, so of course he won't take action now, but if it is delayed for a long time, it might happen."
Yun Zun shook his head.
Whether Shimaha takes action or not depends on the progress of the siege.
If the city cannot be conquered for a long time, no matter how self-reliant the opponent is, they will not sit idly by.
And once the opponent takes action.
Maybe.
It's time for the city to fall.
As for whether he can resist Shimaha.
Yun Zun looked at the people around him and finally shook his head secretly.
It can't be stopped.
Even if he waits for others to fight for his life, it will only delay for some time.
That great master.
The strength is really too strong.
Sighing, Yun Zun walked outside.
"The army is attacking the city. Since we are here, let's go and supervise the battle. When necessary, we can only take action to delay time!"
The man who suppressed the magic division.
You can't just do it at will.
He can be sure.
As long as he and others take action, Shimaha will never sit idly by and do nothing. Doing so will only speed up the time for the city to be destroyed.
therefore.
Never take action lightly unless necessary.
But as long as you and others go to supervise the battle, it can also play an inspiring role.
outside the city.
The shouts of killing were loud and loud.
The general in the city took the lead and organized a large army charge to fight with the Tianxia Alliance army. Then he retreated to the city and started a tug-of-war with the enemy based on the convenience of the city wall.
A few hours later, a large number of corpses had fallen on the ground.
The blood mixed and merged with the soil of the earth, rendering it a disgusting black color.
In the middle of the army.
Shimaha looked at the scene of the siege and looked at the people next to him.
"You all should take action and open up the situation for the army!"
"yes!"
The strong men of the sect nodded, and then stepped forward, a powerful momentum burst out, and a terrifying attack was already falling towards the city.
Don't wait for the attack to land.
There were also strong men in the city who took action and intercepted the opponent's attack.
