Chapter 1013 Three Immortals Come Out of the Mountain
Wen Zhong's mood was like an eggplant beaten by frost. What a depression. Victory was so close before his eyes, but one of the saints who was killed was ruined. Now the army not only had no conditions to move forward, but also had to lose its family.
He backed away like a dog.
In Wen Zhong's understanding, the only person who can fight against a saint is a saint. But he couldn't leave for a while. When the Chinese army encountered the saint's retreat, Chonghou Hu also made slow progress and received an order to retreat.
Later, they ran faster than the Chinese army. Only Zhang Guifang's troops retreated with gnashing of teeth. They all broke into the capital of Nan Bohou, but now their success has been completely defeated.
All of this must be reconciled by Wen Zhong, as anyone else would not be able to control the situation. So when he returned to Zizhi Cliff to report the matter to Master Tongtian, Wen Zhong could only ask his junior brother Shen Gongbao. It happened that Shen Gongbao had not been to Zizhi Cliff yet.
I have never seen Tongtian, so I went here to say hello.
All the way east, after arriving at Zizhi Cliff, Shen Gongbao revealed his identity and was led to meet Tongtian, the leader of Jie Sect.
Compared with the Yuanshi Tianzun and the Supreme Being that Shen Gongbao had seen before, the Tongtian Cult Master gave him a much more majestic feeling, or "majesty" is not quite accurate and should be "fierce majesty". He felt so oppressive that even if he did nothing, he would remain motionless.
Just looking at you can make you unable to straighten your back.
After paying his respects, Shen Gongbao had no intention of chatting with his master, whom he had met for the first time, and directly recounted the events that had occurred in the strategy of conquering the Western Army.
"I already know about this matter. You go back and tell Wen Zhong to reassure him that he can control how the Shang Dynasty fights. I will arrange the rest. Go ahead."
With just two words, Shen Gongbao was sent away.
Although he knew that Master Tongtian might not be too straightforward, this simple explanation still made Shen Gongbao feel unsure. As soon as his mind turned, he thought: Just go back like this? What if something happens suddenly, the saint opposite
If we do this again, wouldn't it be doomed? No, we have to find more reinforcements.
After changing his mind, Shen Gongbao did not turn around and return directly to the army, but went west deep into the ocean.
Zizhiya is the core of Jiejiao's dojo, and its status is like Kunlun Mountain of Chanjiao. There are many islands around it, all of which are also Jiejiao's disciples. This time, the helpers Shen Gongbao is looking for are exactly among these large and small islands.
Among the small islands.
Sanxian Island. It is famous far and wide. It is a blessed place where three strong men live.
"Why is it you again! Leave quickly!"
As soon as Shen Gongbao landed on the island, he was stopped in place by a female voice full of disgust. When he looked up, he saw three figures moving in front of him.
The three girls are each beautiful. They are the three sisters Yunxiao, Bixiao and Qiongxiao who are the owners of the Three Immortals Island.
"Three fairies, Shen Gongbao has no choice but to come here." Shen Gongbao said with a dull voice and raised his hands.
Instantly, a very bad feeling immediately arose in the three immortals' perceptions. They realized that something they had been worried about might really happen.
"Shen Gongbao! Did something happen to my eldest brother?"
The "eldest brother" of the Three Immortals was Zhao Gongming, who had been killed by Lu Ya's Seven Arrows. Shen Gongbao came here just to bring back the news of Zhao Gongming's death in battle, and also hoped to use this hatred to kill Zhao Gongming.
These three radical generals left Sanxian Island to help the army.
Shen Gongbao nodded. He was indeed very guilty about Zhao Gongming's death. After all, he was the one who asked Zhao Gongming to leave. At that time, the three people on Sanxian Island strongly opposed Zhao Gongming's decision. So counting.
, Shen Gongbao cannot shirk responsibility.
"Brother Zhao was assassinated by a mysterious monk named "Lu Ya" under Xiqi Jiang Ziya in a battle three days ago."
"What!"
"Brother!"
"..."
The three immortals were furious and extremely sad and directly vented their resentment on Shen Gongbao. Of course, their remaining sanity prevented them from killing him, but Shen Gongbao was seriously injured and could not run away.
He didn't fight back, because there was no point in fighting back. The strength of any of the three immortals was close to that of Zhao Gongming. How good was Shen Gongbao? Even if he could gain some traction, he was definitely no match for the three immortals.
After the breath of the three immortals had stabilized for the most part, Shen Gongbao reluctantly got up from the ground and luckily healed his wounds. He said nothing, as if he was here to bear the wrath of the three immortals without any complaints.
"Then what's Lu Ya's background?"
Hearing this, Shen Gongbao shook his head and said: "I don't know very well. I only heard that he was an ancient monk who had practiced for a very long time and was not among the three religions. He was the helper invited by Jiang Ziya. He was very powerful and had two magical weapons with terrifying power.
.Brother Zhao was killed by his magical weapon in a sneak attack."
"Then Lu Ya is still in the Xiqi Army?"
Shen Gongbao could tell that even if the three immortals didn't want to go into the muddy waters of human war, Zhao Gongming's death had completely angered them. It seemed that they couldn't wait to avenge this.
However, Shen Gongbao did not dare to speak nonsense and said directly: "The whereabouts of Lu Ya are mysterious. I don't know whether he is still among the army or not."
The three immortals waved their hands and each cast a magic power on Shen Gongbao to help him heal. The three of them gathered at the edge and seemed to be discussing. After a while, they came back and said to Shen Gongbao: "Shen Gongbao, take us to Wen Zhongjunzhong. My eldest brother's death cannot be avoided.
That’s it.”
Shen Gongbao didn't say anything, just nodded. It was he who brought the news to the three immortals to inspire him to come out, but they were chosen by themselves, and they played into Shen Gongbao's hands. So he stood up, feeling slightly recovered from his injuries, and then reluctantly mounted his mount.
, led the three immortals to leave the East China Sea and rushed to the direction where Chaoge's army retreated.
Jiang Ziya, who is far away in Xiqi, has no special actions now and is just gathering the remaining soldiers.
The previous battle had twists and turns, and Jiang Ziya couldn't tell whether the final result was a victory, a defeat, or a tie. Moreover, even the saint took action in the end, which he did not think of in advance.
Think about how powerful Kong Xuan is? Even Lu Ya, who killed Zhao Gongming, was defeated by his opponent. He was obviously a quasi-holy monk. But he escaped under the light of a sword.
Jiang Ziya couldn't understand this with his eyes. But there were people like Lu Ya in his camp, who were also quasi-sages. Naturally, it was obvious that Kong Xuan was defeated by the methods of a saint. From this,
, Jiang Ziya could deduce that it must be his master Yuanshi who took action. Why not Taishang? Because among the saints who like to use the sword light, his master Yuanshi is the only one.
He also thought about catching up and taking advantage of the sage's personal help to cover up the killing for a while. But when he turned around and saw the remaining soldiers in his hands after the battle, Jiang Ziya had to give up this seemingly beautiful plan.
Of the 20,000 Xiqi elites, there are now only 10,000 left, and half of them are dead or disabled and have no fighting power. The top priority now is to reorganize the power in their hands, and then find a way to take over the power of the Southeast Bohou Kingdom.
This is a rare and hard-earned time. Jiang Ziya feels that if Chaoge's army retreats this time, the situation in Xiqi may not be as difficult as before.
