Chapter 581: Supporting the Sword Pavilion
"City Lord!" Bai Yun shouted in embarrassment.
Ji Yuan glared at him, "I'll settle accounts with you when I go back." ”
"Uh..."Bai Yun didn't dare to answer...
"Retreat to the Sword Pavilion!" Ji Yuan shouted.
The demon army is relatively numerous, but Ji Yuan is not sure that he will be able to win them directly, so he also chooses to retreat to the Sword Pavilion.
"Shoot the arrows!Cover the retreat of the city lord and general!" Liu Yuan also quickly gave instructions, it was a round of arrow rain to strafe the footsteps of the demon army.
Thundered!
The gate of the Sword Pavilion slowly opened.
Seeing this, the demon army was even more crazy, rushing towards this side, completely ignoring the rain of arrows and attacking.
"These crazy people!" Ji Yuan scolded secretly, he really wanted to know what the demon army was fighting for, and he was so desperate, even regardless of life or death.
"The army slowly retreats into the Sword Pavilion! Bai Yun! Hua Ming! You each lead a team to block them with me, don't let them step into the Sword Pavilion for half a step!"
"Yes, the first team stayed!, and the others withdrew to the Sword Pavilion!" Hua Ming and Bai Yun shouted at the same time.
"Arc of light!"
The three of them cast an arc of electric light and fire at the same time, sweeping the approaching demon army.
Behind him, many soldiers were also frantically waving the sharp blades in their hands, buying time for the other soldiers to retreat.
After a fight, the soldiers slowly retreated into the Sword Pavilion.
"Let's go!"
Ji Yuan and the others were no longer entangled with the demon army, and they retreated to the Sword Pavilion one after another.
Thundered!
The Sword Pavilion has a city gate that is heavily closed.
Ji Yuan and the others breathed a sigh of relief.
Before Bai Yun could recover from his recovery, Ji Yuan blamed him: "Do you remember what I sometimes told you when I left?"
Bai Yun bowed his head deeply, "Remember! Stick to the Sword Pavilion no matter what happens, the city lord has an order not to go out of the city to face the battle without permission." ”
"Good. Very good. Since you remember it so clearly, then why do you dare to disobey the military order!" Ji Yuan said angrily.
Bai Yun immediately knelt on one knee on the ground, "His subordinates are guilty, and they are willing to be punished!"
"City Lord! At that time, the situation was urgent, and the general was only worried that the demons would set up an ambush and ambush Tianyuan City, and there were reinforcements. Liu Yuan also knelt on one knee on the ground.
Ji Yuan looked at Liu Yuan again, and his tone was also very cold: "Do you know that the deputy general has a duty? In addition to assisting the commander, the lieutenant general has another role, and when the commander gives a mistake and has an order, he must persuade and stop him." Did you do it?"
"The subordinates are guilty, and they are willing to be punished!" Liu Yuan said immediately.
Bai Yun hurriedly said, "It's none of Liu Yuan's business. He had persuaded me that I was just going my own way. ”
"Heh, do you still know that you are bent on going your own way?" Ji Yuan sneered, and then said angrily: "Do you know that you are confronting the demon army head-on like this, are you joking with the soldiers' lives?"
"City Lord, read that General Bai Yun's first mistake is to spare him this time!" Hua Ming knew that it was Ji Yuan who had been waiting for him to open his mouth and give Bai Yun the steps.
"The first time you make a mistake? life, many have the first time, but do you know that if the city defender made a mistake, I don't know how many soldiers there are under him, and many have the first time. Ji Yuan was still unrelenting.
Hua Ming continued: "That's because General Baiyun has been guarding the Sword Pavilion for so many years, and the credit is also, and the hard work is a big one!"
At this time, Liu Yuan and Bai Yun knelt on the ground, their heads buried deeply, and they didn't dare to speak.
Ji Yuan's anger did not subside, he looked at the two of them coldly, but he was thinking in his heart: Ya yes! There are guards in this Sword Pavilion, what are they all doing to eat, yes, yes, don't help, ask for mercy, yes, he can find a step down!
It is true that Ji Yuan, how can he bear to punish Bai Yun, yes, but the military order is like a mountain, it has to be punished, and this is also done for those soldiers under his hand, especially the Sword Pavilion guards, after all, this is about their lives, if they open their mouths to intercede, yes, then the situation is different.
Fortunately, the atmosphere was only embarrassing, and after a while, the guards of the Sword Pavilion came back to their senses and knelt down one after another, and said at the same time: "General Bai Yun is also thinking about the Sword Pavilion, please ask the city lord to spare the general!"
"Please spare General Baiyun, the city lord!" Hua Ming and the soldiers behind him also knelt down and pleaded.
Seeing that the situation was almost over, Ji Yuan calmed down and said sharply: "Since so many people have interceded for you." Then I'll spare you this time. It's just that the memory is still longer, and if there is, I will deprive you of the position of the Sword Pavilion Guard, and I will be demoted to a deputy general!"
"Thank you City Lord Kai En!" Bai Yun still didn't get up.
Immediately, Ji Yuan looked at Liu Yuan again, "Although you didn't, you successfully stopped Bai Yun, but you are still you, you are unique and discerning." From now on, you will have a new guard in your Sword Pavilion. ”
"This..."Liu Yuan hesitated and looked at Bai Yun, who kept his head down.
"Don't thank the city lord yet!" Hua Ming shouted.
"Thank you City Lord for cultivating!" Liu Yuan said.
"Alright. They all got up. The demon army is still eyeing out there. What kind of system is it to kneel here one by one?" Ji Yuan's face softened a lot, after all, he wanted to have an effect, and it had already been achieved.
Hua Ming's heart was so depressed that it seemed that he wanted to kneel, but he didn't dare to say it to his face.
"When did the demon army start to appear here?" Ji Yuan subconsciously looked at Bai Yun, completely forgetting that it was Liu Yuancai's Sword Pavilion at this moment, and there was a guard.
Liu Yuan was slightly embarrassed, and he didn't say anything when he was in place.
Hua Ming, who was down, pulled Ji Yuan's clothes at him, and squeezed his eyebrows at Liu Yuan.
Ji Yuan reacted with a slight embarrassment, and looked at Liu Yuan, repeating what he had said before: "General Liu, when did the demon army start to appear here?"
Liu Yuan replied: "About half a year ago. It's just that people feel strange, some of us guard the entrances of each passage, there are no soldiers, and we have found out where this demon came from. It's as if they fell from the sky. ”
Out of thin air?
Liu Yuan's words suddenly woke up Ji Yuan and Bai Yun.
"Is there anything from the sky?" Ji Yuan touched his chin with his left hand and began to recall that there was a leader of the Cracked Sky Sect that day. "Could it be it?"
"Could it be the leader of the Split Sky Sect?" Bai Yun thought of it as well.
Ji Yuan shook his head slightly, "I don't know." If it came to take revenge, then why didn't it directly attack the Sword Pavilion? Although the walls of the Sword Pavilion were tall and could be faced, and the ability to fly was demons, it was still more difficult. ”
"Could it be that the scene of the day made it scared, so it didn't dare to rashly attack the Sword Pavilion?" Bai Yun said again.
"It shouldn't. The sword momentum was gone, and it was impossible not to feel it. Ji Yuan said. "By the way, there is a connection between the Sword Pavilion and Tian Yuan City, and it has been cut off by some strange force. ”
Immediately, Ji Yuan told Bai Yun and Liu Yuan everything that happened on their way.
"No wonder I sent out a team that hasn't come back yet. I thought about it, and I walked farther and farther along that passage. I don't know about them, no, something happened. Bai Yun said.
Bai Yun looked at Ji Yuan and said, "That's right, City Lord, you personally came to the Sword Pavilion to support, it was the demon army that wanted to launch an attack on Tian Yuan City, what should I do?"
Ji Yuan said lightly: ", the blue dragon is here." It should be fine. ”
Ji Yuan is more worried, some demons have energy, the troops are just fighting for so long, and there are dealings, and it is the blue dragon that should be able to hold it.
Bai Yun said, "Otherwise. City Lord, go back to Tianyuan City first. Here, we guard. The demons want to attack the Sword Pavilion is to call them, and there is no return!"
Ji Yuan is just, it's a little difficult to do, it's the demon army, and the slightest action is that he can't stay here all the time.
This time, he led the troops to come in person, but he was only worried about the safety of the Sword Pavilion, but now that the Sword Pavilion is fine, there is no reason for them to continue to stay here.
After all, compared to the Sword Pavilion, it was the millions of people in Tianyuan City who needed him more.
After thinking about it again, Ji Yuan felt that it was safer to go back, so he immediately said: "That's it, Hua Ming and I will go back to Tianyuan City first, and these horses will stay to help guard the Sword Pavilion." ”
This time, Ji Yuan only brought twenty or thirty thousand people to support the Sword Pavilion.
Bai Yun hurriedly retorted: "No, what if you encounter an army of demons on the way back?"
"Compared to this, the Sword Pavilion needs more manpower. Ji Yuan said, "That's it." I'll take 5,000 people back to Tianyuan City!"
"Okay. Bai Yun knew that it was Ji Yuan, once he made a decision, yes, it would be difficult to change it.
"Without further ado, let's go back to Tianyuan City immediately!" Ji Yuan said to Hua Ming.
Hua Ming nodded and said to the army behind him: "The first is the second, the third is the fourth, and the fifth squad will follow me! The others will stay and wait for General Liu Yuan to send them!"
