In the north of Qinglan City, outside the towering city gate, Liu Long was pacing back and forth anxiously.
"Why haven't we arrived yet? Why haven't we arrived yet? Wu Qian, haven't we found Uncle Liu's team ahead?"
The irritable Liu Long would grab the adjutant beside him every once in a while and ask if there was any news about the material transportation team, but every time he got the news, he was disappointed. He was arranged to come to the north of the city to meet Liu Yuntian's team, which made Liu Long a little a little bit at first.
He was unhappy, but after his sister explained to him the importance of this batch of supplies to the entire war situation, Liu Long realized how heavy the burden was on his shoulders.
"Captain, I have asked the brothers to expand the search area to the north. There is really no news. Could it be that we haven't entered the Yuechuan River yet?"
The adjutant was an old man who had followed Liu Long all the way from Lishui City. Even though Liu Long had been promoted to the rank of major general, he still asked his personal guards to call him captain. According to his understanding, he was a fellow soldier and would not get angry.
point.
"Impossible, the scheduled arrival time has already arrived. They should have entered the plains at this time. Uncle Liu is a master of military art. He is best at mountain warfare. It is very likely that he did not choose the route across the Sichuan River. Bring the map.
."
Taking the map handed over by the adjutant, Liu Long squatted on the ground and started to look at it. At this time, martial law was already in place outside the city gate. Only his team responsible for the response was stationed here, so there were no unsightly gestures.
Others see it.
"You see, here is the Qianlong Mountain Range, and then you can reach Qinglan City by following the branch of the Yuechuan River and bypassing the main trade road. There is also the Huangpi Mound, which can directly save most of the journey to the plains, and this...
"
Qinglan City is located at the eastern estuary of Cangyun Empire. Although it is in a plain area, the terrain in the northwest is extremely complex. In addition to the high mountains along the Yuechuan River, it is also bordered by basins, hills and other landforms. It can be said that there are many routes.
Unable to wait for the transportation team, Liu Long could only mark other possible routes one by one, and then arrange for troops to go and investigate.
"It would be too time-consuming to investigate one by one with the current strength. It would be great if someone from the Tribulation Realm could help. It would be more efficient to tear apart the space to investigate. Previously, my sister went to the seniors of the Li family to assist. I don't know what happened.
."
Just when Liu Long was at a loss what to do, a rift in space suddenly appeared beside him. The person who walked out of it was none other than Liu Ruoying, and the three figures that followed him were a bit unfamiliar to Liu Long. They were not those from the Li family.
One of the three ancestors.
"Sister, the three seniors have finally welcomed you. There is still no news about Uncle Liu's team. I guess they may have taken a route we don't know about."
Liu Long breathed a sigh of relief and anxiously told Liu Ruoying about the current situation and his inferences. However, the sound of artillery fire from the east of the city kept coming, making the tense atmosphere even more tense.
Liu Long also just learned that on the main battlefield of the eastern port, thirty Infinite Realm captains of the Penglai Army took action at the same time, and most of the soldiers had taken some kind of pills, and their combat effectiveness and morale had been improved by several levels.
Even though the powerful warriors from the Eastern Military District and the sects of the Immeasurable Realm also stepped up, the defense of the port could no longer hold up for long under the enemy's heavy firepower.
The thunder plan formulated by Liu Chong and already implemented still lacks a very critical link, and this link is among the supplies Liu Yuntian transported. But time passes by, and the supply team that should have arrived according to the plan is still there.
There was no trace, which made Liu Long sweat all over with anxiety.
"Don't be confused. The port is trying its best to delay. We still have time. These three are the elders of the Li family, and they are all beginners in the Tribulation Realm. Find out the three most likely locations of Uncle Liu, and we will split up.
Investigate, if any side discovers a situation, you will bring your troops to support immediately."
Liu Ruoying, who still remained calm, quickly understood the situation and formulated a search plan. Liu Long also selected Qianlong Mountains, Huangpi Mounds and Jinxiu Valley as key search areas based on the characteristics of the terrain, and finally
Three more masters of the Li family's Tribulation Realm tore apart the space and went to the target location to investigate first.
"Sister, how come there are three more people in the Li family who are in the Tribulation Realm? I thought there were only three ancestors with such a level of cultivation?"
Waiting is always the most difficult thing. Liu Long also took the opportunity to express his surprise. After all, the existence of the Li family's hidden sect has been a secret before. Only when the war was approaching did the three ancestors Ling, Qing, and Bai appear to stabilize the morale of the army.
Originally, Liu Long thought that the one who came must be one of the three ancestors, because only the strong ones in the Tribulation Realm could tear apart the space and quickly search for the location of the supply team.
"This time, in addition to the three ancestors, the Li family also sent five elders who have transcended the tribulation realm. Although they are all entry-level practitioners, it is more than enough to stop the lower ones among the Penglai Ten.
Otherwise, the gap between our monk levels is too big, and as long as the other party entangles three ancestors, the remaining ten will be enough to destroy most of our defenses."
Hearing Liu Ruoying's words, Liu Long breathed a long sigh of relief. The gap in the number of monks in the Tribulation Realm has always been his biggest concern. At that level, one person can turn the tide of the battle. He was still worried before.
Just relying on whether the three ancestors of the Li family can fight against the seven Penglai Ten Guys, I now know that Qinglan City has already made arrangements.
"Actually, we are not worried about the Penglai Ten Guys. Although they are all amazing and talented, the entire Penglai Immortal Kingdom has been established for less than a thousand years, and its foundation is not comparable to our Cangyun Empire. The three ancestors are sure to stop them.
There are seven of them, but the master of the 'Blood' organization hidden secretly is our biggest worry."
Liu Ruoying pondered for a moment and finally expressed Qinglan City's real worries.
"Sister, are you talking about Purple Eyes? He is at the perfect level of the Infinite Realm at most, so he shouldn't be that difficult to deal with. The three elders of our Liu family working together are enough to deal with him. As for the Blood Demon Camp under him, it's not
Are there ANBU already watching? You shouldn’t be able to make a big splash, right?"
Liu Long was confused, because in his opinion, although Venerable Zi Tong had a profound strategy and planned the war between Cangyun Empire and Penglai, when he actually went to the battlefield, he still had to rely on his strength to speak for himself. With the current high-end war between the two sides,
At the level of power, it seems that the "blood" organization cannot intervene.
"Purple Eyes is indeed nothing to be afraid of, but what if it is their king or guardian? You must know that the four kings and guardians of this organization have not appeared in the past hundred years, but they are still among many powerful helmsmen.
Above the Lord, his strength must not be underestimated. In the organization of 'Blood', it is difficult to move forward without strength and only with strategy. This is also an important reason why Zi Tong promotes this battle. He needs to get generous rewards in order to
Improve your status."
Hearing Liu Ruoying's words, Liu Long was stunned on the spot. It wasn't that he hadn't considered the possibility of the "Blood" organization sending more powerful masters before, but just as Liu Ruoying said, the four heavenly kings and the left and right guardians had already appeared last time.
It was time for the Third Immortal War three hundred years ago.
For a long time, most people in the fairy world who knew about the existence of the "Blood" organization thought that the position of the King of Heaven and the Protector had ceased to exist in name only. But now Liu Ruoying's reminder made him realize that the battle to defend Qinglan City might be far more difficult.
