On the second day, the convoy set off, and a mighty team composed of the old, weak, sick and disabled headed west.
Nowadays, the Helian family's armies are spread all over the world, starting from the snowy land and hundreds of rivers. Wherever the iron hooves go, there will be rivers of blood, corpses everywhere, and no life.
There are a total of 108 main cities in the Canglan land. Starting from the east coastline, under the almost brutal invasion of Helian's army, 67 main cities have been breached. Countless civilians were killed and injured, and houses and shops were destroyed in large numbers.
It stretches for thousands of miles.
When the war broke out, the entire land was shaken. The major families felt deeply that a disaster was coming, and began to plan their escape routes, either abandoning the city and fleeing, or seeking refuge with the Helian family.
All in all, the peace of the world has been broken, and everyone will face a crisis of family destruction and death.
Facing the Helian family's army, countless civilians began to drag their families with them, leave their homes and flee in all directions.
There are two places that most people choose to go to, one is Tiangu City located in Longshan Ghost Cave, and the other is Tianxiang City in the Flame Territory.
There are Sword Immortals stationed in these two cities. No matter how arrogant the Helian family army is, if they want to invade these two cities, they will probably have to make careful decisions.
Lu Chen sat on the carriage and followed the convoy. On the way, he saw many civilians in ragged clothes, dragging their families with them, walking towards the west, as if they were fleeing.
The faces were full of vicissitudes of life and exhaustion. When they saw the convoy approaching, they thought it was the enemy and they fled in fright.
Lu Chen frowned and looked at this scene, feeling indescribable sadness and pity in his heart.
Under the flames of war, the people suffered disasters.
Those in power turn a blind eye, and if a war breaks out, who knows how many people will die.
For the sake of his own selfish interests, Sword Immortal Helian slaughtered people everywhere without caring about the people in the world. Is there really no one to stop such crazy behavior?
At noon, the official road was full of fleeing figures. Halfway along the road, the convoy happened to meet another convoy whose flag had the word "Mu" written on it.
When the man with the thick beard at the head saw this scene, his eyes lit up, as if he knew that convoy.
Then he swung his riding whip and ran up, laughing loudly: "Mr. Mu, long time no see."
There are many people in the convoy in front, about three to four hundred people, and many of the guards are composed of elite soldiers. They look very conspicuous when walking on the official road.
The leader is a gentle young man with a thin face wearing a luxurious blue robe, followed by a tall and sturdy man with a resolute face. He is carrying a broad sword with red patterns, his eyes are bright, and his whole body is full of energy.
He has a strong aura and is obviously a powerful master.
Behind it was a luxurious carriage pulled by a snow-white dragon pony, and there should be a distinguished personage inside.
Hearing a voice coming from behind, the luxurious young man couldn't help but turn his head and look over, his eyes suddenly showing hesitation and vigilance: "Who are you?"
"Your Excellency, Yuan Li, is the steward of the Yuan family. Didn't you forget that we met last time in Huangmu City?" Yuan Li clasped his fists and laughed loudly.
After hearing this, Mr. Mu thought seriously for a while, and then suddenly realized: "Oh, it turns out to be Manager Yuan. Mr. Mu almost couldn't remember it. I'm really sorry."
"Mr. Mu, it's normal for noble people to forget things. If you don't remember things, you are bringing a family with you. Where are you planning to go?" Yuan Li looked at the other party's motorcade and couldn't help but wonder.
When Mr. Mu heard this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Aren't you asking the question knowingly? Now the world is in chaos, and there is chaos everywhere."
"The Helian family's army is coming like a pack of ferocious beasts, invading all places. Our Songhai City is weak and weak. We don't even have a decent swordsman, so how can we resist it."
"We'd better abandon the city as soon as possible to avoid encountering the bloody disaster and go to Tiangu City. I heard that all major family forces are retreating on a large scale and are gathering at the boundary of Longshan Ghost Cave to form an alliance to jointly fight against the Helian family."
Yuan Li looked surprised and said: "It's true, I thought it was just a rumor."
"It's not a rumor. Nowadays, Helian's army is powerful and ambitious. The major forces are weak and weak. If we don't stick together for warmth, I'm afraid we can only defeat them one by one."
"We, the small forces, will either try our best to resist, or we will defect to the other side's camp and compromise."
"As we all know, once our families take refuge in the Helian family, we will probably be devoured even to the bones. The only way to survive is to resist." Mr. Mu shook his head and said with a bitter smile.
Yuan Li nodded: "That's true."
"Where are you going on this trip?" Mr. Mu glanced at the motorcade behind Yuan Li and couldn't help but wonder.
Yuan Lidao: "Go to Heyang Town and meet with my young master."
"Oh, it's Yuan Chongshi. Your Huangmu City was attacked by the Helian family's army, and he actually escaped. He's really lucky." Master Mu sighed softly when he heard this.
Yuan Li smiled bitterly and said: "Who says it's not the case? My young master is planning to go to Tiangu City. I heard that many families are rushing there to discuss the alliance."
"Oh, so that's it. Let's go together when the time comes. I happen to have the same intention." Mr. Mu nodded.
Yuan Lida said: "Well, let's go together and take care of each other."
After the two people discussed it, they gathered together and set off.
Lu Chen sat on one of the carriages and stood beside the carriage bored, looking at the surrounding scenery.
Boom! Boom!
However, not long after the convoy had been driving, a sudden sound of rapid horse hooves came from the front.
A heavily armed and murderous black-armored army, numbering hundreds of people, rushed down the official road and surrounded the convoy in the blink of an eye.
The leader was a mighty and strong man wearing copper-red armor. He had a green-edged sword hanging on his waist, a feathered helmet on his head, and his eyes were cold and fierce. At a glance, he knew that he was a powerful person who had been on the battlefield for a long time.
Lu Chen looked at the scene in front of him in surprise and couldn't help but frown. The figures of these troops were so familiar, as if they had seen them before somewhere.
"Who is coming?" Mr. Mu held the reins in his hand. When he saw this scene, his expression changed drastically and his heart suddenly became nervous. He immediately said seriously.
Because he had recognized that the soldiers surrounding the convoy were men from the Helian family.
When the burly man and Yuan Li next to him saw this scene, beads of sweat suddenly oozed from their foreheads.
They have been running away for so long, but they are caught up by the Helian family. What should they do?
The atmosphere on the official road suddenly became tense. Seeing this scene, the surrounding refugees fled in all directions for fear of getting into trouble.
The general rode his horse forward, glanced at everyone with a cold gaze, and immediately shouted in a cold voice: "Huh, Yuan family, Mu family, I am Helian Tao of the Helian family. I have recently been ordered to capture the remnants of the rebels."
"You are all on the Helian family's murder list. Since you were hit by me today, please stay put and come with me."
When Mr. Mu heard this, he frowned: "Heliantao, what do you want to do?"
"I am the young master of the Mu family, Mu Yuanqing. If you dare to capture me, I will fight you to the death."
"And I, Yuan Li, if you dare to touch us, let's see whose sword is faster." Yuan Li held a big sword and yelled fiercely with his eyes wide open.
Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, the generals around them immediately drew their swords and faced each other in a desperate posture.
They have already fallen out with the Helian family, and now that the matter has come to this, they will not just let it go.
When the red-armored general saw the ferocious looks of these family members, he couldn't help but grinned and sneered: "You're really smart. A bunch of loser dogs dare to show off their power in front of me. I'm tired of living."
"Very good." He turned his head and shouted immediately: "Everyone listen to the order and take down all these forces."
Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!...
When the surrounding soldiers heard this, they quickly drew their swords and surrounded everyone in the convoy, ready to kill at any time.
"Wait a minute." Suddenly, a majestic voice came from beside Master Mu.
When everyone took a look, they realized that the person speaking was actually a burly man.
"Uncle Tie, don't be reckless." Mu Yuanqing reminded him quickly.
The burly Khan, who was called Uncle Tie, glanced at him. Master Mu did not say anything. He suddenly felt confident. He knew Uncle Tie Kui's ability. Without this confidence, he would not have rashly said anything.
So Tie Kui rode forward, stared at the general with sharp eyes and said loudly: "General Helian, if you want to catch us, you have to weigh your own strength at least."
"We really need to take action. There are so many of us, but with just your few men, are you enough to kill us?"
Hearing this, Heliantao couldn't help but frown, and then shouted: "What, you want to be the first person?"
"I'm not quite a young man, I just want to discuss something with you." Tie Kui shouted loudly, holding a broad sword.
Helian Tao squinted his eyes and looked at Tie Kui, and said with a cold smile: "Speak quickly if you have something to say, and say something quickly if you have any nonsense. Either you will be arrested without mercy, or I will capture you one by one and drag you back."
"That's such a loud tone. If you really start fighting, I guess by then, you won't have much strength left." Tie Kui sneered.
"Either you and I challenge each other. If I win, let us go. If I lose, we'll just capture him. How about that?" Tie Kui tore open a portion, exposed his furry chest and roared.
When Heliantao heard this, his heart suddenly sank. What the other party said was not unreasonable.
The generals brought out by the young master of the Mu family are all elite soldiers with considerable strength. What's more, there are many masters hidden in the opponent's team.
If the two sides really wanted to fight, he would probably not have many soldiers left, and the gains would outweigh the losses.
Heliantao sneered and said, "Okay, I'll just do as you say. Let's see what tricks you play."
After saying that, he jumped down from his horse, holding a green-edged sword, and looked squarely at the sturdy Tie Kui.
Seeing this, Tie Kui kicked off the saddle, drew his sword like lightning, and flashed across the sky in an instant, slashing hard at the figure in front of him.
