Li Chengdao brought back Wu Sheng's head and the ghost girl's body, and the ghost clan who lost their queen fell into panic.
Yue Lang and Yue Xi knelt on the ground. Apart from crying, they had no idea at all.
Cheng Hui has experienced many battles and knows that this is the most dangerous time. If Long Chen and the Empress lead troops to pursue them, all these tens of thousands of ghost soldiers will die.
Cheng Hui suggested retreating to the ice field and finding a solution, but Li Chengdao took the opportunity to reveal his intention to lead the ghost tribe.
The deaths of Wu Sheng and Ghost Girl were so strange that Cheng Hui did not believe Li Chengdao and even suspected that the deaths of Wu Sheng and Ghost Girl were related to Li Chengdao.
Of course, Cheng Hui didn't have any evidence.
Li Chengdao raised the topic of commanding the ghost army, but no one answered.
Yue Lang and Yue Xi knelt on the ground, looking at the corpse of the ghost girl and crying. After hearing Li Chengdao's words, they were unwilling to accept Li Chengdao's leadership.
Cheng Hui had doubts in his heart, and he had a bad impression of Li Yuanba, so he didn't want to accept Li Chengdao.
On the way back, Li Chengdao imagined in his mind that these defeated ghost soldiers were in a state of panic. As long as the corpses of Wu Sheng and Ghost Girl were placed in front of them, these ghost soldiers would be terrified and eager to find new support.
And he, Li Chengdao, has both cultivation and the ability to command troops. He is an excellent leader. All the ghost soldiers will support him and become the new king.
But the situation was unexpected. Li Chengdao started talking, but no one supported him.
Li Chengdao looked sad, and there was a surge of resentment in his heart. He felt that these ghost soldiers deserved to die. At this time, he still did not know the current affairs, claiming to be a saint and superior to others.
It's a pity that Han Hu and Ma Chenglong are dead. Otherwise, the three of them would definitely stand up and support at this time. As long as someone starts, others will follow.
The scene fell into embarrassment. Li Chengdao pretended to be sad and cried looking at the corpse of the ghost girl.
"General Li is right, we cannot stay here and must return to the Holy Land immediately."
"Long Chen's cultivation level is too high. Even if His Majesty defeats him, he is likely to come back. We need a new leader!"
Finally, Cheng Hui stood up and said the first words.
Li Chengdao was overjoyed and praised Cheng Hui as a man who understood current affairs.
Cheng Hui was the first to stand up and support Li Chengdao. He didn't like Li Chengdao in his heart. He had his own considerations in doing so.
The ghost tribe has just experienced a great defeat. The Martial Saint and the ghost girl are dead. No matter who killed them, or even if it was Li Chengdao, it doesn't matter. The ghost tribe's army urgently needs a new leader who can lead the army and stop Long Chen.
Empress.
Looking at the entire army, only Li Chengdao can do it, and there is no second choice.
At the same time, Cheng Hui also has his own selfish motives.
If this new leader is from the ghost tribe, they, the old members of the Martial Saint, will be very sad.
Li Chengdao came from Daliang, and like Cheng Hui, he was once from the Central Plains. It was better to follow Li Chengdao than to follow the ghost tribe.
Therefore, although Cheng Hui did not like Li Chengdao, he was the first to stand up.
Mature people only look at interests, not personal likes and dislikes.
"But, I am not a saint, how can I lead the saints?"
Li Chengdao was ecstatic in his heart, pretending to be terrified, and looked at Yue Lang and Yue Xi.
The demon spirit is dead. Generals Yue Lang and Yue Xi are the top generals of the ghost clan. Li Chengdao becomes the commander of the ghost clan and needs the support of these two people.
Yue Lang and Yue Xi looked up at Li Chengdao. They disliked and even despised Li Chengdao. They supported him to become the leader of the ghost clan, or the king of the ghost clan, but they were unwilling to do so.
Seeing the two men hesitating, Li Chengdao had a murderous intention in his heart.
Kill these two rebellious ghost generals and rebuild other ghost generals.
"Both generals, after experiencing this war, we have all seen that the victory or defeat on the battlefield depends on the victory or defeat of the main general."
"We were defeated this time because Your Majesty, the King, was defeated by Long Chen. If Long Chen were defeated, we would have already entered Yanmen Pass."
"Now that your Majesty, King, has fallen, we need General Li. Only he can defeat Long Chen. You also saw it when we were at Yanmen Pass."
"When General Li leads us, he does not mean that General Li becomes the king of the Saint Clan, but becomes the leader of the Saint Clan and all of us, leading us back to the Holy Land."
"In the spring of next year, Long Chen and the Empress will definitely lead the Eastern Zhou army to invade the Holy Land. By then, we will also need General Li to lead us to defend the Holy Land."
"Two generals, General Li is willing to come back and lead the Saint Clan. We should be happy. General Li is the same as us. We are not from the Saint Realm. We are from the Central Plains. We can leave at this time. It is impossible for Long Chen to find him.
our."
"But what about you? You are in the Holy Realm. Long Chen has already been there once. He will definitely attack again. You have no place to hide."
"General Li did this for our own good."
"Of course, you are the generals of the Holy Clan. If you are unwilling to accept it, then forget it. General Li and I, as well as a dozen brothers, can leave now and go back to the Central Plains to hide their names and survive."
Cheng Hui said it very sincerely. Li Chengdao felt that it was very reasonable and he could really leave.
Yue Lang and Yue Xi didn't speak, and neither did the other ghost generals around them.
They claim to be a high-class holy race, but they have to be led by a lowly human race, which makes them psychologically uncomfortable.
Seeing their hesitation, Li Chengdao felt resentful in his heart and said: "Generals, I am following the King and His Majesty. They have fallen, and there is no need for me to stay here any longer."
"Generals, take care, Long Chen, the empress may come back at any time, so we say goodbye."
After saying that, Li Chengdao turned around and walked away, striding towards the south.
The spies under his command looked at Cheng Hui, who turned to Yue Lang and Yue Xi and then left with Li Chengdao.
Li Chengdao and Cheng Hui left, and the old members of the Dragon Slayer Army also left, as did the remaining remnants of the Barbarians.
The ghost tribe is aloof and looks down on the Dragon Slayer Army and the Barbarians, and they do not want to stay in the ghost tribe's army.
"Yuexi..."
Li Chengdao really left, Yue Lang was a little panicked.
Their cultivation is too poor and they are no match for Long Chen. If the Zhou army counterattacks, they will really be doomed.
Li Chengdao walked further and further, Yue Xi thought about it carefully and said: "We will let him be the general. As for the king of our holy clan, we will nominate him ourselves after returning to the holy realm."
The ghost fetus is dead and the ghost girl has no heirs. The ghost clan needs to elect a new king.
This king cannot be Li Chengdao. In any case, Li Chengdao is an outsider.
"Okay, that's it!"
Yue Lang felt that Yue Xi's proposal made sense.
"Go and call Li Chengdao back!"
Yuexi ordered a ghost general to chase Li Chengdao back.
The ghost will immediately pursue you.
south.
Li Chengdao strode forward, his face seemed cold and determined, and he did not miss the ghost soldiers at all, but his heart was filled with waves.
After so much effort, is it possible to achieve nothing by fetching water from a bamboo basket?
No, it won't happen. No one in the ghost tribe can support me. They will definitely beg me to go back!
What if they don't chase them? Kill Yue Lang and Yue Xi?
Or pretend that Long Chen makes a surprise attack at night and kill the ghost soldiers for a while. Then they will be afraid and beg me to go back.
