After understanding the situation of the Demon-Slaying Pass, Li Yukong ended his communication with Xu Zhiyuan, and Xu Zhiyuan's figure slowly disappeared on the mirror.
Li Yukong pondered for a moment, then raised his hand and gently touched the bronze mirror. The mirror surface rippled like a lake. Soon, a tall figure with a plump face, a straight nose, drooping ears and shoulders, and a majestic appearance appeared in the mirror.
.
The figure saluted Li Yukong respectfully and said:
"Disciple Liu Jiazi, pay homage to the Patriarch."
"Okay, let's not say any polite words, let's talk about the situation at Zhennanguan."
Li Yukong looked solemn and said in a steady voice.
Tianxuan Xingjun Liu Jiazi stopped being polite and reported directly:
"After nightfall, the demon and barbarian coalition forces in southern Xinjiang suddenly launched an attack on Zhennanguan. However, our city wall is strong and the city defense formation is even more impenetrable. The opponent is also very strange. They have been using trebuchets, crossbows, and witchcraft.
The demons and others carried out long-range attacks, but did not send siege troops to storm the city wall, which is very strange."
Liu Jiazi saw that Li Yukong had no intention of asking, so he continued:
"If we say that they are mainly harassing, their long-range attacks are still quite strong. They do not hesitate to waste equipment and mana to attack the city defense formation. If we hadn't mobilized many mages to maintain the formation, the city defense formation would have been destroyed sooner or later.
Collapse. But if they have the intention to attack the city on a large scale, they have delayed sending soldiers to seize the city. That’s why the disciples find it a bit strange."
Hearing this, Li Yukong stroked the long beard on his chin and said:
"Liu Xingjun, thank you for your hard work. Your task tonight is to defend the city and don't attack rashly. You have contacted Tianji Xingjun Wu Daozi early and asked him to come to support. Beware of the Southern Xinjiang barbarian leader Meng Qing and the Southern Xinjiang Demon King Yu Chen.
A sneak attack by two people."
Liu Jiazi nodded and immediately said:
"Please rest assured, Patriarch, Wu Daozi Xingjun is on his way here. I think he will be here soon. With Wu Xingjun's help, this disciple will not be afraid of Meng Qing and Yu Chen."
"Well, okay, unless you encounter a life-or-death crisis tonight, don't use the divine general's method to summon Daozu Yuanshen to come. When Wu Daozi arrives, you can also remind him."
Li Yukong reminded him seriously, and Liu Jiazi hurriedly said yes respectfully.
Then, Li Yukong waved his hand at the mirror, and Liu Jiazi's figure disappeared, leaving only an empty space. The smooth and neat mirror reflected Li Yukong's slightly tired face.
He had so many thoughts in his mind:
What exactly is Sui Xing going to do? Why did he suddenly arrange for the demon barbarians from Northern Wilderness and Southern Xinjiang to launch an attack together tonight, and put on a menacing siege posture?
Is it really just to attract the fighting power of the Taoist sect and create a more favorable situation for the Bon religious envoys to cause chaos in the capital? Isn't it a bit of a fuss?
It is simply impossible for the Holy Envoy of the Bon religion to turn the capital upside down, unless high-end combat forces such as Sui Xing and Yuan Jinsheng gather in the capital, but a small throne and a big shock to the court are impossible to shake.
The foundation of our Taoist sect, after all, the capital city of Taichang is located in the hinterland. It is difficult to control the situation of the great earthquake with just a few people. Even if we gain a temporary advantage, we can counterattack at any time. Isn't it necessary?
What plot was Sui Xing planning? Did he want to take advantage of the chaos in the capital and the renewed fighting in the northern wilderness and southern border to send troops to Hanguguan to plot to seize Yuzhou?
Well, it is very possible, no, it is very possible, this is the true purpose of Sui Xing.
Thinking of this, Li Yukong once again raised his hand and touched the bronze mirror. The surface of the mirror rippled like a lake. Not long after, a figure emerged. This person has a tall and straight body, a long face, thin lips, plain hair and a collar, with a hint of melancholy on his face.
, it is none other than King Lang of Yuheng Star.
Wang Lang saluted respectfully and said:
"Disciple Wang Lang pays homage to the Patriarch. I wonder what the Patriarch's instructions are?"
"Is there anything unusual happening at Hangu Pass?"
Li Yukong asked in a deep voice, and Wang Lang replied calmly:
"Reporting to the Patriarch, there is no unusual movement among the rebels at Hangu Pass, and everything is calm."
Hearing this, Li Yukong breathed a sigh of relief, and then he solemnly said:
"Wang Xingjun, please send an order to Pingxi Camp to send more troops to patrol tonight and pay close attention to the movement of Hangu Pass. The soldiers will not take off their armor tonight, keep their weapons on their bodies, and are ready to fight at any time."
Wang Lang was taken aback, and then asked anxiously:
"Grandmaster, will the rebels from Hangu Pass launch a large-scale attack on Pingxi Camp tonight?"
"There is a possibility. The situation tonight is treacherous. Pingxi Camp cannot take it lightly. I will notify Tianquan Star Lord Xu Kunsheng to support you later. Don't worry, as long as we get through tonight safely, tomorrow will be the time for our counterattack.
.”
Li Yukong said in a calm voice, but Wang Lang felt the undercurrent surging beneath the calm. The situation tonight might be like a silent volcano on the verge of erupting at any time, destroying the world and destroying the world.
Wang Lang did not dare to neglect, and after asking for some more details, he hurriedly said goodbye and left.
Li Yukong did not delay and informed Xu Kunsheng through the sound transmission bronze mirror to lead people to support the Pingxi camp. Afterwards, he fell into deep thought and kept deducing whether there were any omissions in the arrangements for the various fronts tonight.
Then, he tapped the mirror again, and Yin Huai, who was tall and thin, with a dark complexion and a gloomy face, emerged.
Yin Huai lowered his voice and asked respectfully:
"Is the Patriarch looking for a disciple in an urgent matter?"
Li Yukong asked softly:
"What's going on at the royal banquet now?"
"Reporting to the Patriarch, Emperor Yongguang and the Crown Prince have fallen out. The troops from both sides are fighting, but the Crown Prince Zuoli's side is obviously at a disadvantage and will be suppressed in a short time. If the Holy Envoy of the Bon Religion does not take action, Zuoli's defeat will be inevitable.
reverse."
Yin Huai said in a quick voice. Li Yukong nodded slightly and spoke faster:
"Okay, now that it's time to meet each other, you should deal with the matter over there first, but remember, if any accidents happen, please notify me in time."
Yin Huai hurriedly nodded in agreement. Li Yukong did not want to interfere too much with Yin Huai's actions at this critical moment. The more he interfered, the more his subordinates would be tied up, so he ended the contact.
The main hall fell into silence, and Li Yukong sat cross-legged on the ground motionless, silent for a long time, motionless as a mountain.
Although everything was normal on all fronts, he still felt a little uneasy in his heart. This emotion emerged from the bottom of his heart like the all-pervasive dust and omnipresent shadow.
He looked at the Tianshu giant cauldron in front of him and murmured:
"Be constant in the face of ever-changing conditions. No matter where you are, Sui Xing, as long as you show up, I will rush over immediately. Your plot will have no way of hiding in front of the Dao Sect's demon-suppressing formation."
…
Bailiming protected King An Zuo Liangchen behind him. Beside him were Zuo Sisi and Yuan Chaoxi, with a small golden eagle parked on his shoulder.
Watching the fierce battle between the Crown Prince and Emperor Yongguang, Zuo Sisi couldn't help but ask:
"Baili? What should we do? Should we help the emperor?"
Bailiming thought for a while and said:
"Now the prince's side is in a weak position and will inevitably lose as time goes by. However, the Holy Envoy of the Bon Religion has not appeared for a long time. This shows that the Prince still has a back-up plan, or that the Holy Envoy of the Bon Religion still has a back-up plan that has not been used. Let's give it to him.
Add more fire and force him to use his back-up tactics."
Then, he looked at Zuo Sisi and said:
"Zuo Si, everyone in the Great Zhen Dynasty knows that you have joined the Taoist sect and been promoted to an inner sect disciple, so at this moment, you don't have to hide and tuck in. You can perform as you should, and you can also gain some benefits for yourself and King An.
"
Then he looked at Yuan Chaoxi:
"In the morning and evening, you first help Zuo Si and deal with the prince's people together. I will protect King An first and take the opportunity to hide. I will take action after the Holy Envoy of the Bon Religion appears. Then you and Zuo Si will come back quickly to protect King An.
"
The two nodded, and then Zuo Sisi jumped out first and shouted:
"How dare you, the rebellious ministers and thieves, to commit crimes below and above? Let me protect you!".
