"Liu has now broken through Tongxuan and achieved immortality." Liu Ming pondered for a moment, then answered.
"As expected... the little girl vaguely guessed it yesterday. I would like to congratulate Brother Liu for cultivating the Great Dao. Now in this Continent of Ten Thousand Demons, no one is your opponent." Upon hearing this, Zhao Qianying's eyes flashed with sadness.
Even though there was a smile on his face, it was a bit unnatural.
Five hundred years ago, she was the princess of the Central Dynasty, and the other party was just the head of a small family. If they were to become a couple, the other party would inevitably be a bit too high.
Five hundred years later, even though she was the Demon Emperor of the Central Dynasty, the opponent was already a being who could turn the world around and wipe out the Tongxuan Realm's powerful beings, so she obviously didn't care about it anymore.
If she had any illusions, at this moment, they were completely destroyed.
"So what if you are invincible, many things are beyond the reach of human beings... By the way, as far as I know, over the past hundreds of years, Miss Zhao has kept her promise and taken good care of the Qing family. Liu is deeply grateful for this.
Thank you." Liu Ming said and bowed his hands.
Zhao Qianying looked a little downcast, she just shook her hand gently and said nothing.
"In addition, Liu also knows a little bit about the current situation in the mainland. The Long family has nothing to worry about now. I heard that Elder Yupo is leading an army to eliminate the remnants of the Liu family who have colluded with the Kong Xiang family. I am afraid that things may not go smoothly...
If Miss Zhao doesn't mind, Liu Ming can handle it for you." Liu Ming pondered for a moment and then said.
"You do this because you want to use this credit to let me continue to take care of the Fuqing family in the future, right?" Zhao Qianying looked at Liu Ming faintly and said.
"Partly for this reason... But I think this should relieve some of your pressure." Liu Ming's eyes moved, hesitated for a moment, and said.
Zhao Qianying could not help but feel a warmth in her heart, her eye circles were slightly red, but her expression soon returned to calm, she cupped her hands towards Liu Ming and said:
"Brother Liu is willing to help, so the little girl is naturally very grateful."
"You're welcome, Miss Zhao. In that case, I'll go here... See you later, take care." Liu Ming looked at Zhao Qianying, and a touch of emotion flashed through his heart for no apparent reason, but it only fleetingly passed.
After the words fell, his outline gradually became blurred and disappeared in place.
Zhao Qianying looked at the once again empty hall in front of her, and there seemed to be a huge hole in her heart. Suddenly her body swayed and she collapsed on the ground.
…
Qingzhou is much more prosperous than Zangzhou, Hanzhou and other border counties, with countless large and small cities and hundreds of large and small aristocratic families living here.
It's just that since the rebels from the Liu family and the Kong Xiang family attacked here, most of the aristocratic families in Qingzhou have already moved to other places. Those who didn't have time to move have naturally become the fish in the pond affected by the war.
As a result, the once prosperous Qingzhou now only remains a desolate scene.
Qingzhou, Yanfengcheng.
Yanfeng City is located on the border of Qingzhou. It is the largest city within tens of thousands of miles and ranks among the top three in the entire Qingzhou territory.
The hundreds of thousands of troops from the Huangfu family are now all stationed in the city.
It was not peaceful outside the city at the moment.
Cries of killing and explosions could be heard one after another.
The entire city seemed to be surrounded by three groups of black armies from the east, west, and south. The tide of demon soldiers were like making dumplings, rushing over from three sides in a steady stream.
The demon armies in the east and west are the largest in number, and their costumes are black and blood-colored respectively. The army in the south is the least, and they all wear gray armor.
Pillars of demonic light and magic weapon auras rushed towards the city shield like raindrops, causing the entire city protection array to flash wildly. The huge collision of mana was like countless muffled thunders exploding, and the sound was heard hundreds of miles away.
.
Over the city, dozens of huge battleships were swimming around, and from time to time thick white beams of light were ejected from the battleships. Although each beam of light could kill many demon soldiers, compared with the black army on all sides, it was still
Seems pale and weak.
In a main hall in Yanfeng City.
Huangfu Yupo stood in front of a huge wooden table with a solemn expression. On the table was a map, which seemed to be the terrain near Yanfeng City.
There were seven or eight Celestial Realm demons standing around the wooden table. They should all be legion commanders and commanders.
The expressions of these people were not very good. The shouts of killing outside the city and the loud noise of the collision of mana were clearly heard in the hall, like a heavy punch hitting everyone's hearts.
There were two Tongxuan realm demons standing next to Huangfu Yupo, one of whom was a gray-haired old man, and the other was a bald young man.
The two of them looked solemn and looked much calmer than the commanders of the Astronomical Corps.
"How long can the city defense formation last?" Huangfu Yupo asked.
"Elder Qi Yupo, I can last for one day at most." An old man in the Celestial Realm replied immediately.
"Send the order and hold on for one more day. Early tomorrow morning, the entire army will attack and break out in one fell swoop. The specific plan will be announced before departure tomorrow." Huangfu Yupo ordered in a deep voice.
"Yes!" The legion commanders present agreed in unison, then said goodbye and left.
"Elder Yupo, is this move too risky? The number of enemy troops outside the city is now more than 800,000, which is almost twice as many as our army." After the others left the hall, the purple-robed Tongxuan old man said.
.
Another bald young man also nodded, expressing that he was also worried about this matter.
"I didn't expect that the Gaohe family would also collude with the remnants of the Liu family... Now we are outnumbered and the enemy is outnumbered. If we lose the city defense formation, we will be attacked on several sides. I am afraid that the whole army will be annihilated here." Huangfu Yupo.
He said with a wry smile.
It turned out that a few days ago, when she led her army all the way to Yanfeng City in Qingzhou, she fought several fierce battles with the rebels composed of the Liu family and the Kong Xiang family. She gained the upper hand and captured the city in one fell swoop.
However, just as the morale of the Huangfu family's army was high, the Gaohe family quietly sent an army to Qingzhou, cutting off the Huangfu army's retreat. However, Liu and Kong Xiang's armies, which had originally fled in defeat, suddenly appeared with
A large force of troops came to attack, trapping the Huangfu family's army in Yanfeng City.
The combined strength of the three parties is as much as 800,000, among which there must be many forces from small and medium-sized aristocratic families that are originally dependent on the two major aristocratic families.
As a result, Huangfu's army suddenly fell into a passive situation.
"Which direction does Elder Jade Soul want to raid out of the city?" The purple-robed old man pondered for a moment and said.
"South." Huangfu Yupo stretched out his white finger without hesitation, pointed to the south direction of the city on the map, paused, and then explained:
"On the east and west sides are Gao He's and Kong Xiang's armies. If there is a head-on confrontation, it will easily lead to a stalemate and be outflanked by armies from other directions. Although there seems to be no one in the north, it is most likely that the other side has done this deliberately. Only the Liu family in the south has rebelled.
The number of remnants of the party is the smallest. We only need to dedicate a small number of troops to pretend to escape from the other three routes, and at the same time seize the opportunity to break out from the south in one fell swoop. If Liu Chenglong can be killed, it should be a big blow to the rebels."
The purple-robed old man and the bald young man pondered for a moment, then nodded.
"Since both of you have no objections, we will implement this plan. Tomorrow's battle will require more efforts from the two elders." Huangfu Yupo's face was filled with joy, and he raised his hands to the two of them.
The purple-robed old man and the bald young man agreed, then turned around and retreated.
After a while, Huangfu Yupo was the only one left in the hall.
She stood there quietly and suddenly sighed quietly.
Although she behaved confidently and calmly in front of the two elders, she was not sure whether she could successfully break through this time.
But under the current situation, as she just said, she can no longer hesitate and must make an immediate decision.
Huangfu Yupo thought so, the look on his face dropped, he turned around and walked towards the outside of the hall.
She didn't notice that at this moment, there was a looming cyan figure in the air, looking towards her quietly.
This cyan figure is naturally Liu Ming.
He picked up a strange magic weapon in his hand, and then a white light flashed from his body, and his body disappeared immediately. The next moment, he appeared like a ghost outside the north gate of Yanfeng City.
The city defense formation seemed to be useless in front of him.
Since no one is attacking here, there is a rare quiet atmosphere.
"It seems that you are quite skilled in controlling the laws of space contained in the Cloudy Sky Mirror." Luo Hu stood on Liu Ming's shoulder at some point and said.
Liu Ming heard this and smiled noncommittally.
"Let's not talk about gossip. In the past few days, my memory has recovered somewhat, and I have remembered many things in the past. Regarding the blue stone slab you got in the cave of Zhongtian Continent, maybe it is in the Huntian Codex of the original Demon Lord.
We can find a breakthrough." Luo Hu said slowly.
"Is this true? If so, senior, please pay more attention." Liu Ming's eyes were filled with joy and he said quickly.
If this is true, he may be able to return to Zhongtian Continent before ascending.
"What's the big deal? I'll go on to enlightenment."
After Luo Hu finished speaking, he moved and flew back to the spirit beast bag on Liu Ming's waist.
Liu Ming frowned slightly and glanced at the east and west armies. Immediately, the huge spiritual consciousness spread out, covering thousands of miles in an instant.
"They're all here, which is great. It saves me the trouble of searching for them one by one." Liu Ming's face lit up, he said lightly, and then he disappeared from the spot.
Outside Yanfeng City, in a main hall of the joint camp of the Liu family and the Kongxiang family, nine figures were standing or standing around a round table. They were discussing something.
Among the nine people, they were vaguely divided into three forces, forming a triangle with each other, and there was a hint of caution.
Sitting opposite the two family heads was a gentle and elegant young man in gray robe. Although his cultivation level was only in the late stage of celestial phenomena, his aura was not inferior to the two family heads.
Behind the young man in gray robes stood two mysterious beings, one was a tall man in gray robes with a beard on his face, and the other was a skinny and gaunt old man.
