Yu Wenkai left Yuncheng and led the Long Family Army and the Demon Dragon Camp to the Hera Pass.
Their goal is simple, to attack the ice field while the Martial Saints are out in force.
In the past, the ghost tribe had the advantage and Long Chen was at a disadvantage. When fighting the ghost tribe, Long Chen had to concentrate all his strength to deal with the ghost tribe.
Yu Wenkai, as a veteran from four hundred years ago, with a cultivation level second only to Long Chen and the empress' ruthless man, must deal with the Martial Saint together at Yanmen Pass.
Moreover, the Demon Dragon Camp is the most elite army, and Long Chen also needs them to fight.
Things are different now. Long Chen has complete control over the Holy Sword, the Empress has refinished the Phoenix Wings, the number of army training has increased, and the construction of new firearms has been completed.
The Martial Saint was severely injured by Long Chen, and the Martial Saint who lost Black Moon would definitely have his combat effectiveness reduced.
The ghost girl lost her holy sword, and Long Chen was sure to deal with it.
The only variable is Li Chengdao, who not only broke through the true state, but also obtained the Xuanwu Sword.
But it doesn't matter, Long Chen is confident to deal with the three of them.
That's why we dared to let Yu Wenkai lead Gan Xin and Mo Lin as partial troops to counterattack and attack, and when Wu Sheng attacked Yanmen Pass, they took the initiative to attack the ice field.
The empress asked where Yu Wenkai was now. Long Chen thought for a moment and said, "The snow gets heavier as you go north, and they can't march any faster."
The empress was a little worried and asked, "Will I be trapped in the ice field?"
If the Martial Saint rushes back in time and blocks the Hera Pass, Yu Wenkai will be doomed.
Long Chen said: "It all depends on how well we fight. As long as we defeat Wu Sheng, Yu Wenkai will be safe."
"I'm not very worried. Wu Sheng has already arrived outside the customs. Even if he gets the news, it will be too late to rush back."
"Yuncheng is closer to Hera Pass, so Yu Wenkai has enough time."
This is a risky move. If it is made wrong, the price will be the lives of Yu Wenkai, Gan Xin, Mo Lin, and more than 10,000 Long Family Army and Demon Dragon Camp.
Long Chen dared to do this because he was confident.
"Well, yes, if Yanmen Pass is well built, they will be safe."
The empress nodded slightly.
Di Luoxi and Di Lingyi listened to the discussion between the two and felt that they could not get a word in.
...
Northwest of the grassland.
Yu Wenkai led the Demon Dragon Camp and the Long Family Army to trek through the snow.
The howling north wind blew in the face with snowflakes, and the army marched against the wind.
The war horse had given up because the snow was too deep and the horse could not move.
There is also the cold. It is too cold in the north and the war horses cannot withstand it.
"Old General, our speed is a bit slow."
Gan Xin walked next to Yu Wenkai, feeling very anxious. He wanted to walk faster, but he had no choice.
The sled is not useful in this place because of the headwind.
Yu Wenkai smiled and said: "Xiao Gan, don't worry, we have enough time."
"Our road is not easy to walk, and the road of Wu Sheng is not easy to walk. The stronger the wind and snow, the safer we are."
On the road ahead, they rode horses much faster.
In addition, Yuncheng is in the west, which can save travel time.
"Xiao Gan, don't worry, we've figured it out, and by the time Wu Sheng finds out, we'll already be out."
Yang Hu smiled and comforted Gan Xin.
Yang Hu and Tan Wenyue were very happy during this march. Four hundred years ago, they chased Wu Sheng into the Storm Canyon and were buried under the ice.
This time, they can finally lead the Demon Dragon Camp into the ice field again.
Their long-cherished wish can come true.
"As long as the old general has done the math, we're just worried that we won't be able to make it in time."
The demon explained with a smile.
Yu Wenkai said very confidently: "Don't worry, everything is under my control."
The four men walked in front, followed by the army behind them.
The holy beast watched the four people talking and laughing, but it was silent.
The wind and snow have no effect on it, and it even feels very comfortable.
The holy beast was very happy. After four hundred years, it could finally return to the ice field, its hometown.
After returning to the ice field, it still has a lot to do.
"Beast, why don't you say anything? Aren't you happy to go home?"
Yu Wenkai turned to look at the Holy Beast. The Holy Beast ignored Yu Wenkai's teasing and continued to move forward.
"Old general, stop teasing it. When you reach the ice field, you still have to rely on spiritual beasts."
Mo Lin persuaded with a smile, worried that Yu Wenkai would conflict with the holy beast.
Yu Wenkai smiled and said: "Rely on it? It should rely on us. It has been locked underground by the Martial Saint for four hundred years, and it cannot protect itself."
The holy beast was unhappy with what he said, and his pace suddenly quickened, his figure flashed, and he disappeared into the wind and snow.
"Spiritual beast, spiritual beast!"
Gan Xin shouted at the holy beast, but the holy beast had long since disappeared.
"Oh, old general, the holy beast has escaped. What do you think we should do?"
Mo Lin was so anxious that he jumped to his feet. This time when entering the ice field, the sacred beast was very important.
Without the help of the holy beast, it will be difficult to deal with a snowstorm.
Also, if the holy beast turns its back and turns against the Long Family Army, things will become very troublesome.
Yu Wenkai was also a little surprised and said: "This beast was just a joke, why did he run away?"
"It doesn't matter. Our interests are the same. It can't fight with the ghost clan against us."
"Besides, it takes one step first, just enough to explore the path, so don't worry."
Yu Wenkai laughed and continued walking forward, not worried about the holy beast at all.
Gan Xin and Mo Lin were speechless. This old general was really heartless.
...
Fifty miles north of Yanmen Pass, Li Chengdao's 30,000 Dragon Slayer Army slowly advanced, followed by 100,000 ghost soldiers led by Wu Sheng and Ghost Girl.
After resting for two days, the ghost army continued to march south and soon arrived outside Yanmen Pass.
"Everyone stop."
Li Chengdao ordered the Dragon Slayer Army to stop advancing.
Han Hu, Feng Yang, and Ma Chenglong have never been to Yanmen Pass and don't know how far it is.
"General, why did you stop marching?"
Han Hu asked puzzledly.
Li Chengdao pointed to the beacon tower ahead and said, "Didn't you see the beacon tower? From here on, we officially enter Long Chen's range."
Han Hu and the other three looked to the south, and sure enough they saw several beacon towers standing in the white snow.
"Attack?"
Han Hu asked excitedly.
Li Chengdao looked at Han Hu speechlessly, and said in a stern tone: "Han Hu, I say it again, don't be impulsive on the battlefield, follow my command in everything!"
Han Hu was trained to bow his head and remain silent.
Feng Yang and Ma Chenglong were also speechless. Han Hu was too impulsive.
Li Chengdao said several times that we must not be anxious in this battle and do not rush to the front and die.
"Wait here until I report to the king before taking any action."
Li Chengdao jumped up, flew over the Dragon Slayer Army, landed firmly on the snow, and slowly walked toward the northwest.
Soon, Li Chengdao met Wu Sheng, the ghost girl.
"My servant Li Chengdao pays homage to the king, Your Majesty."
Li Chengdao knelt down and saluted skillfully.
"Get up, you don't need to be so polite when fighting."
Wu Sheng was a little impatient. Li Chengdao was really used to kneeling and would kneel wherever he went.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Li Chengdao got up very naturally and said to Wu Sheng: "Your Majesty, just ahead is Long Chen's beacon tower. Do you want to rest here and wait for Cheng Hui's information before advancing?"
In the past, Wu Sheng would have been too lazy to wait for any information and would have just led his troops to kill him.
But after suffering several losses, Wu Sheng became cautious.
"Okay, set up camp on the spot and wait until Cheng Hui's information arrives before taking action."
Wu Sheng looked at the ghost girl, who nodded slightly and agreed with Wu Sheng's decision.
