The red sun sets in the west, and the crows and magpies return to the forest.
In the Xingjun Hall of Tianji Palace, the leader of the Seven Palaces gathered together. Wu Daozi, the Xingjun of Tianji Palace, said with a slightly solemn expression:
"Today we have summoned all of you to discuss something. The war in southern Xinjiang has been going on recently, and everyone knows the specific situation. Although the two barbarian demon tribes are approaching fiercely, they are blocked outside the male pass, so it is not a cause for concern."
Upon hearing this, the leaders present all showed happy expressions on their faces. At this time, Wu Daozi changed the subject:
"However, seeing that these evil obstacles could not be broken through from the front, they began to harass ordinary people near the border. Many villages and villages were attacked. For a time, the people were full of grief and devastation."
At this time, a Taoist priest with a purple-black face, red hair and a long beard interjected: "Didn't Zhennanguan arrange anyone to go to the rescue?"
Wu Daozi was interrupted and raised his eyebrows slightly, but he still suppressed his dissatisfaction and responded calmly:
"Mr. Li, please be patient. Zhennanguan will naturally have arrangements. However, the whereabouts of these monsters and barbarians are erratic. It is difficult to know their plunder targets in advance. They can only respond passively, which makes it impossible to stop them in time. In addition, facing the monsters and barbarians,
The main force, the troops in southern Xinjiang are all concentrated in the Zhennan Pass, and they dare not divide the troops too much, and the manpower is also stretched. Therefore, the Seventh Palace Xingjun discussed and then allocated manpower from each palace for support."
Leader Li spoke up again and asked: "Since Xingjun has called us here, it seems that he is going to draw strength from the mages participating in the conference again?"
Wu Daozi said: "It's not just that, it's about expanding the scale."
When the leaders heard this, their hearts tightened, and they looked at Wu Daozi doubtfully. Wu Daozi did not show off, and said directly:
"It just so happens that the Seven Stars Yaocai Conference, the elites of the Zhengjue Realm and the Qiangong Realm of each palace gathered here. Tianji is close to Southern Xinjiang, so the disciples participating in the competition this time also need to go to Southern Xinjiang for support."
Hearing this, a Taoist priest with a fair complexion, thin eyes and long beard asked: "In this case, what will happen to the Seven Stars Yaocai Conference?"
Wu Daozi explained: "No problem, this support can be used as one of the schedules of the Seven Star Yaocai Conference. Now the individual battle competition will be held. The original rules are to select three people from the eight Group A teams, a total of twenty-four
People will compete in a duel. Now you can select the final candidates based on the number of monsters killed in this support and their level."
At this time, Yuan Jinsheng also asked: "The combat power of the disciples in the Zhengjue realm is still a bit low. If they are lost on the battlefield, it will not be worth the loss for the Taoist sect. I wonder if all the Star Lords have considered it?"
When Wu Daozi saw that it was Yuan Jinsheng who was asking the question, his attitude became much gentler and he said pleasantly:
"Haha, what Chief Yuan said is absolutely true. The Star Lords have discussed this matter. First, the strength of the demons and barbarians who plundered the villages are mostly composed of the Zhengjue Realm and the Humility Realm, so the danger is not great; secondly, they patrol the borders to find out where the enemy is.
The main task is to focus on the Gongqian Realm disciples, while the Zhengjue Realm disciples can provide support as the second echelon to reduce the risk. Furthermore, the duration of this support is only about half a month, and as other supporting disciples from each palace come to
Arriving one after another, the disciples who participated in the Seven Star Yaocai Competition can withdraw their Heavenly Rights and continue the individual battle competition."
Yuan Jinsheng slightly nodded and said: "That's very good, but I have another suggestion. Since the risks faced by disciples in the Zhengjue realm are relatively low, each team can be composed of a mixture of people from various palaces. This will make it more competitive.
fair."
Hearing this, Wu Daozi's eyes lit up and he praised: "Okay, Mr. Yuan has really considered it thoroughly. I agree with this suggestion, but the final arrangement needs to be discussed with other star monarchs before being decided."
Looking at this scene, the red-haired and yellow-bearded Li Chief of Tianshu Palace cursed in his heart:
"Hmph, this Wu Laodao is really looking at what others are doing. Yuan Jinsheng's strength is not weaker than Qigong Xingjun, but he looks like he is trying his best to please. Damn!"
At this time, Wu Daozi's voice sounded again: "Do you, sir, have any other questions? If not, we will discuss this first. Please make preparations after you return, wait for the notification, and set off immediately."
No one at the head of the Seventh Palace raised any questions. In this way, everyone said goodbye to each other and left one by one.
…
As the night begins to rise, the crescent moon looks like a hook.
On the south peak of Tianquan Palace, on the bird's beak stone platform, in the octagonal pavilion, Baili Ming, Yuan Chaoxi, Zuo Sixi, Lu Xiaoyao and Wang Yueming were raising their glasses to invite the moon, and the atmosphere was harmonious.
Wang Yueming drank the wine in the glass, glanced at Lu Xiaoyao pretending to be casual, and laughed:
"I was a little dissatisfied with losing to you at first, but after seeing the combined skills you displayed against Tianshu Palace, I was convinced."
Zuo Sisi, a little tipsy, patted Wang Yueming on the shoulder: "Brother Wang, I'm not bragging. The general combined attack technique can be considered powerful if it can superimpose two types of mana attributes. However, the combined attack technique we cast can superimpose four types, or even
Five attributes, naturally powerful."
Looking at Wang Yueming with an envious face, Bai Liming explained sheepishly: "Brother Wang, don't listen to Zuo Si bragging here. You also know that the more attributes are added, the better. It will disperse the mana and the gain will not be worth the loss. Our final
One blow was a desperate move, activating the Jiuyou God-Breaking Technique, which was as long as one side, and turned it into a giant of ten feet. It defeated ten groups with one force, and blocked the Star Chasing Hammer of Tianshu Palace, but I couldn't hold on for long. Fortunately, I
The soul attack consumes less mana, so it can be used. It's just a fluke."
"Brother Baili, don't be too humble. It's rare for you to have such skillful cooperation and keen sense of timing. By the way, I was about to ask Brother Bian why he didn't come?"
Baili Ming was dumbfounded and didn't know how to answer for a moment. Lu Xiaoyao smiled and said warmly:
"If something happens temporarily, we will have the opportunity to get together with him again."
Bai Liming, Yuan Chaoxi, and Zuo Sisi could only echo, and the slightly embarrassing question was taken away.
Bai Liming drank all the wine in the glass and said a little drunk: "I heard that the demon barbarians are attacking this time with great momentum. After so many days, I don't know how the battle is going?"
Hearing this, Yuan Zhaoxi stopped shaking the wine glass, and then said: "I heard from my father yesterday that the demon barbarian army is now huddled in the camp more than ten miles away from Zhennan Pass, and there have only been a few small-scale fights between the two sides.
There were casualties in the contact battle, but some guerrilla teams from Yaoman continued to harass some villages on the border, making Daomen a little tired of coping."
When Wang Yueming heard this, he said dissatisfiedly: "It's all Taoists who are fending off the enemy. Didn't the Great Zhen Emperor send troops to reinforce it?"
After all, Zuo Sisi was born in the Great Earthquake royal family, and explained aloud: "I know a lot about the Great Earthquake Dynasty. The main force in fighting enemies on the border is still the sergeants of the Great Earthquake Dynasty. The Taoist sect mainly provides support and high-end combat power to deal with demons. I want to come to the demons."
Those guerrilla teams are also very powerful, and the main force of the Taoist sect is restrained at guarding the pass, so that may lead to a shortage of personnel."
"That's true." Yuan Zhaoxi nodded and said: "However, the Great Earthquake Dynasty has been peaceful for more than ten years and has slacked off in its armaments. This time the monsters suddenly attacked and caught Zhennanguan off guard, so the Taoist sect urgently mobilized
Staff from all palaces went to support. Alas, even such an important internal event as the Seven Star Yaocai Conference was affected."
"It is our responsibility to slay demons, and I really look forward to going to the frontier to contribute." Bai Liming drank the wine in the cup and said boldly.
"You are the only one who is righteous and has the world in mind? Are we just watching from the sidelines?" Yuan Chaoxi's cheeks were like peach blossoms at this time, and his eyes were a little blurry. When he heard Bai Liming's words, he teased with a hint of drunkenness:
"Hmph, I am not a timid person. When the Seven Stars Yaocai Conference is over, we will go to southern Xinjiang together to slay demons!"
Zuo Sisi touched his chin, and a thought came to his mind: "Since Dao Sect is short of manpower now, maybe Dao Sect will arrange for us to go there tomorrow!"
Bailiming laughed, raised his glass, and responded: "That's better! Let's go to the battlefield together!"
Hearing this, Yuan Chaoxi, Zuo Sisi, Lu Xiaoyao, and Wang Yueming all stood up, raised their glasses, and said in unison: "Okay, let's go to the battlefield together!"
The five of them drank the wine in one gulp and laughed happily.
Looking at the crescent moon in the sky, Lu Xiaoyao suddenly said sadly: "It would be great if General Zhou could join us to kill the enemy."
After everyone heard this, they fell into mourning for a moment. Baili Ming silently raised his wine glass and spilled the wine on the ground: "Then let's kill more demons to comfort the spirit of General Zhou."
The moon shadow dances and the stars dim, just like everyone's mood.
