Gongyang Liangqing's words made General Cheng Lu feel cold in his heart, and he was speechless for a long time.
If things really turned out to be what the other party said, neither he nor the Western Shang Kingdom could bear such a result!
They came here to take advantage of the situation, not to fight against the Xishang Kingdom or the Mieling Sect. There was no need to involve all their own family wealth...
"Then...what should we do?"
Cheng Lu thought about it for a long time, but in the end he had no choice but to ask the other party for advice.
Gongyang Liangqing smiled coldly, then shook his head and said: "There is no way! If the other party really has a world-destroying formation, you'd better make plans to retreat!"
"But... this was a plan we had planned for more than half a year, and we just retreated..." Cheng Lu said with some reluctance: "Where should we put the face of our Western Shang Kingdom?"
"Is face more important, or is life more important?" Gongyang Liangqing asked backhandedly.
As soon as these words came out, Cheng Lu was speechless again.
However, his heart was still full of unwillingness. If a cultivator has such power, then why do we ordinary people need to do it?
If the other party had this kind of power that could change the situation, why not use it from the beginning, or warn the Western Shang Kingdom and keep them out of the country.
The only possibility of not doing this is - they don't have it at all!
Thinking of this, Cheng Lu blinked suddenly, then turned to look at Gongyang Liangqing and said: "Immortal Gongyang, I don't think the other party has such a method at all. If there is, it should have been used long ago!"
He quickly analyzed the possibilities he thought of and then gave his own opinion.
"That Lu Xiaoyue seems to be related to the Soul Slayer Sect, but she is not a disciple of the Soul Slayer Sect. How could she learn such a killing move? I guess she doesn't even know there is such a thing, otherwise it would be fine
No, he has already threatened and warned us!"
The degree analysis is still reasonable and well-founded.
If Lu Xiaoyue knew about the existence of this method, she should have used it to warn the Western Shang Kingdom.
Just like the "atomic bomb" in later generations, as long as the "atomic bomb" is there, other countries will not dare to touch you easily... This is an invisible threat.
But now Hanling Kingdom has not taken it out, which means that they don't have it at all, and they don't even know that such a thing exists.
The immortal cultivator's world-destroying formation is different from the atomic bomb. Under normal circumstances, it will not be shown to others at all.
If I say yes, then yes...you don't dare to come over and try to see if I have it!
But if you don’t say it at all, don’t mention it at all, then it means there is no such thing...
Gongyang Liangqing thought for a long time before he understood what Cheng Lu meant, but he quickly nodded and agreed with Cheng Lu's guess.
He felt that maybe he was thinking too much...
"General Cheng, since you think this is the case, why not launch a tentative attack to see how strong the opponent is before making a decision?" he said softly.
Cheng Lu nodded immediately: "Okay! With the words of Immortal Master Gongyang, I can rest assured! I will prepare now to launch an attack on Lingjing City at three quarters noon!"
After he finished speaking, he left the tent of the Xianyuan Sect with excitement on his face and returned to his Chinese army tent.
Then he opened his account and raised his teeth, summoned his men, and prepared to start the attack on Lingjing City.
Although this is just a tentative attack, it is of great importance. It is related to whether the Xishang Kingdom can continue to invade the cities of Hanling Kingdom. Therefore, this battle must be fought beautifully, cleanly, and defeat the opponent.
Pain, beat to collapse, beat until surrender!
On the other side, after Cheng Lu left, Gongyang Liangqing began to think seriously about the Soul-Destroying Sect.
This is the territory of Hanling Kingdom, not far from Mie Ling Sect. If possible, he would probably go to Mie Ling Peak and personally ask the leader of Mie Ling Sect to find out who they are with Lu Xiaoyue.
What's the relationship? Will you continue to protect Hanling Kingdom?
If the answer is no, the Western Shang Kingdom can legitimately annex the Hanling Kingdom.
Thinking of this, Gongyang Liangqing couldn't help but smile, as if he had already seen the future of Hanling Kingdom.
He had just left the Mieling Peak not long ago and knew what the situation was like there now. Without a few decades, the Mieling Sect would not be able to return to its previous heyday.
The current Soul-Destroying Sect has already been unable to protect itself!
Three quarters past noon in the afternoon came quickly.
Just hearing the sound of a horn, the troops of the West Shang Kingdom quickly moved into action and formed a formation that could attack the city. However, without saying a word, they pushed towards Lingjing City.
In this era of fighting, there are no rules, and there is no need to wait for both sides to arrange their formations before fighting openly and openly.
The only purpose of war is to win. As long as we can win, it doesn't matter what tactics and methods we use.
The thunderous horn sound suddenly shocked the entire Lingjing City.
Lu Xiaoyue hurriedly ran out of the small courtyard, stepping on the breeze, and flew to the sky above Lingjing City. She immediately saw the soldiers of the Western Shang Kingdom who were coming towards this direction.
In the middle of these soldiers, she also saw the invader who was commanding this war - General Cheng Lu of the Western Shang Kingdom!
Seeing this, Lu Xiaoyue naturally understood what the other party wanted to do, so she quickly went to notify the martial arts disciples responsible for defending the city.
However, Shopkeeper Hong and the martial arts disciples in Lingjing City were obviously faster than her.
They quickly mobilized all the people involved in the defense at the west wall where the Xishang Kingdom was attacking, and then took these people up the city wall together, preparing to defend against the wall.
Since Lingjing City is a border city, the city wall here is much higher than other cities in Hanling Kingdom. Standing on it, Lu Xiaoyue could not see outside through the female wall.
With strong walls and sharp swords, and people who are united as one, Lu Xiaoyue believes that Shopkeeper Hong and the others can successfully defend this battle.
She just stood high in the clouds and looked at everything on the ground, without preparing to go down to help.
Not long after, the sound of drumbeats came again from the soldiers of the Western Shang Kingdom, and then the forward soldiers of the Western Shang Kingdom began to attack the city.
On this side, the people of Lingjing City led by Shopkeeper Hong also began to fight back desperately!
The first battle between the two sides can be described as intense.
Although it was just a tentative battle, Cheng Lu had already determined this battle in his heart. He must win in one battle, and it would be best to capture this spiritual city directly.
They must completely destroy Lu Xiaoyue's confidence before she reveals her killer move, causing her to lose confidence and give up her expectations for Lingjing City.
Only in this way can the soldiers of the Western Shang Kingdom survive safely.
However, the development of things is always so unpredictable...
