Qin Hao still regarded Li Chengdao as a slave, insulting and threatening him wantonly.
Li Chengdao pretended to be scared and hurriedly said: "General Qin, please calm down. I was ordered to leave at that time. It was the Holy Son who asked me to leave. Who would have thought that Long Chen would suddenly appear?"
"General Qin, are you okay? We will look for the Holy Son immediately. If something happens to the Holy Son, we will not be able to bear the responsibility."
Li Chengdao pretended to walk to Qin Hao and wanted to help Qin Hao up.
Qin Hao slapped Li Chengdao on the face, almost unable to sit still, and cursed: "This is because you are not protecting me, what does it have to do with me!"
Qin Hao looked very bad and looked seriously injured. Li Chengdao was secretly happy: After all this, he still dares to threaten me and seek death!
"General, calm down..."
Li Chengdao stepped forward again, pretending to help Qin Hao up, but a spiritual snake suddenly swallowed Qin Hao from behind.
"Ah, you! Swallow! It's actually swallowing. How can you swallow the secret skill!"
Li Chengdao made a sudden attack, and Qin Hao was completely unprepared and was swallowed by the spirit snake.
Li Chengdao was one of his own and a slave of Gui Fei. Qin Hao never thought that Li Chengdao would dare to make a sneak attack.
In addition, Qin Hao was seriously injured and had no energy to take precautions. As a result, Li Chengdao took advantage of him.
Qin Hao had a high level of cultivation and a poisonous eye, and he immediately saw through Li Chengdao's secret technique of swallowing.
Li Chengdao actually mastered the secret skill that even Li Yuanba couldn't master!
The moment the spirit snake swallowed it, Qin Hao realized the danger, burst out his last bit of strength, and condensed the true energy to protect his body.
Qin Hao's Qi is very special, like a mirror that can reflect everything around him, but he himself disappears.
This is Qin Hao's secret skill. He does not really disappear transparently, but allows light to pass through, making it look like he has disappeared.
The spirit snake had swallowed Qin Hao into its throat, and Qin Hao struggled fiercely. The spirit snake's body was bulging from the impact, and the snake's body looked like it was about to burst.
Qin Hao struggled more and more fiercely and kept yelling: "Bitch thief, how could I die in your hands!"
Li Chengdao activated the Xuanwu Jue and used all his strength to absorb Qin Hao's blood essence.
The true energy protected his body, but Li Chengdao couldn't breathe. Qin Hao was struggling desperately again. Seeing that the spirit snake was about to be drilled through, Li Chengdao was furious. The true energy exploded violently. The spiritual snake held Qin Hao in its mouth and entered the turtle shield.
After the spirit snake got into the turtle shield, the black turtle's shield slowly shattered and stuck to the spirit snake. It seemed that the spirit snake slowly turned into an armored snake.
There was a turtle shield wrapped outside, Qin Hao couldn't escape, and the spirit snake continued to suck blood.
Finally, the true energy wrapped around Qin Hao was sucked away, and Qin Hao couldn't resist the devouring.
"Thief, Li Yuanba's scoundrel, you will not die well, the Lord will kill you!"
Qin Hao knew that there was no hope of survival and cursed Li Chengdao loudly.
"No, I will tell Wu Sheng that you were all killed by Long Chen. It was Long Chen who killed you!"
Li Chengdao laughed wildly, Qin Hao's essence and blood were sucked out, and he finally became a mummy.
The spirit snake disappeared, the mummy fell to the ground, and Li Chengdao shook the corpse into powder.
Li Chengdao raised his head and took a deep breath, feeling that his cultivation had improved again.
Compared with hard training, Devouring only needs to suck the essence and blood of others to improve one's own cultivation.
Li Chengdao recalled Long Chen's appearance as a blue dragon just now, and thought: Is that a cultivation beyond the true realm? How can it be achieved?
He didn't see the fighting in front of Yanmen Pass, so he didn't know what the real situation was like.
"Let's go back."
Li Chengdao cautiously headed north.
...
Long Chen and Shi Jingxiang slowly returned to the camp. The prefect Wu Gui ran away, the soldiers and officials were in chaos, the strong men dispersed in a hurry, and the scene was a mess.
"What should I do? It's too messy."
Shi Jingxiang turned to ask Long Chen. Long Chen flew into the sky and shouted to the people below: "Everyone, listen, I am Long Chen, King Wu of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Everyone sit down on the spot and don't run around!"
Long Chen used the lion's roar. The sound was very loud and could be heard for more than ten miles around. When Xixia was destroyed, Long Chen's name could only make children cry. Now that they heard it, the panicked soldiers and people were half-believing and slowly became quiet.
"All officers and soldiers, take care of the people around you, and follow me back to Yangcheng after dawn!"
"The war in the north is over. The ghost tribe has been defeated. Our army has won a great victory. There is no need to fight anymore!"
Long Chen continued to shout to calm the crowd and at the same time asked the soldiers and officials to take care of the people.
"In this expedition, all officials and soldiers will be rewarded!"
Just now it was an order and a scolding, now it's a reward. Long Chen used both kindness and power to quickly stabilize the situation.
The scattered and chaotic crowd slowly calmed down and gathered into small circles.
Long Chen continued to shout: "Respectable civil servants and military generals, go to the north camp to meet with me!"
After saying that, Long Chen landed at the tent where Wu Gui had just been.
The tent was shattered and the tables and chairs inside were smashed.
Shi Jingxiang lit the brazier and waited with Long Chen for the officials to arrive.
After waiting for a while, two men who looked like civil servants arrived.
When they saw Long Chen and Shi Jingxiang, they immediately bowed and said, "I'm going to pay my respects to King Wu."
They had met Long Chen a few years ago. At that time, Shi Le was guarding Yangcheng and Long Chen planned a siege. They were in the city.
"Um."
Long Chen nodded slightly, and the two officials stood beside him.
Other officials arrived one after another, including civil servants and military generals, more than 40 in total.
"The general will pay homage to King Wu...and pay homage to...His Royal Highness the Princess."
A female general arrived. When she saw Long Chen and Shi Jingxiang, she immediately saluted respectfully.
Long Chen was slightly surprised. It was not surprising that he knew him. This female general actually knew Shi Jingxiang.
"May I have your name?"
Long Chen asked, and the female general replied: "The last general, Tian Caiwei, was originally the guard general of Xingqing City, but later... arrived in Yangcheng."
Shi Jingxiang asked: "Are you from Xingqing City?"
Xingqing City was originally the capital of Xixia. The female general Tian Caiwei once defended the capital, and her official position should be quite high.
"Back to princess, yes."
Tian Caiwei replied respectfully.
Shi Jingxiang nodded slightly and did not continue to say anything.
Xingqing City and Xixia are things in the past, there is nothing to say.
When everyone arrived, Long Chen asked them to report their official positions.
The prefect Wu Gui and the officials around him all ran away, and Tian Caiwei had the highest official position.
"The king appoints you as the new governor, and everyone will be at your disposal."
In front of all the officials, Long Chen promoted Tian Caiwei to be the governor of Yang City.
Tian Caiwei said in surprise: "Thank you to King Wu, but the general has never been a civil servant, I'm afraid..."
Tian Caiwei has always been a military general, but has never been a civil servant or managed civil affairs, so she has no confidence.
Long Chen said: "I learned it slowly. The prefect Wu Gui escaped before the battle. I appointed you as the prefect, so you will take the position."
Wu Gui did not flee in the face of battle, but ran away.
Long Chen didn't tell the truth because he wanted to stabilize the morale of the army.
Wait until we return to Yangcheng to settle the accounts in the autumn.
Tian Caiwei was overjoyed and said, "Thank you to King Wu for your support."
The matter was left to Tian Caiwei, while Long Chen and Shi Jingxiang rested where they were.
At dawn the next day, Tian Caiwei had already organized her troops and horses, and Long Chen led the army back.
After walking for a day, I met the group at the back, all of which were women.
Long Chen found the leader, revealed his identity, and ordered everyone to return to the city.
It wasn't that long of a distance, and we walked for five days before we finally returned to Yangcheng.
Hearing that Long Chen had arrived, Captain Li Guishou immediately brought people to the prefect's mansion to meet him.
Long Chen was sitting in the main hall, Tian Caiwei was sitting next to him, and Li Guishou stepped forward to salute: "The last general, Yangcheng Colonel Li Guishou, pays homage to King Wu."
Long Chen nodded and said, "Sit down and talk."
Li Guishou sat down next to Tian Caiwei.
All the high-ranking officials in Yangcheng were present, and everyone was curious about what happened.
A few days ago, we just recruited troops to go north. The prefect Wu Gui led the troops to go on an expedition. Today Long Chen appeared here and everyone has returned.
