"There are a few other things," Yang Zhen stared at Liang Xiao and said slowly,

"The city lord told me that the Yang family's order had been issued, but I didn't receive any news before, and it wasn't until yesterday that I sent the news of my breakthrough back to the family that I received my new mission. In other words, you can understand that only when you reach the realm of the Void can you be qualified to understand this appointment. ”

"Suddenly.... Breakthrough?" Liang Xiao looked at his master dumbfounded.

Yang Zhen's eyes widened, "What's so surprising! Your master is also a peerless genius in Yangzhou, and you are only allowed to go out of your body at the age of sixteen, and you are not allowed to have my forty-four-year-old cave realm?"

"No, no," Liang Xiao smiled bitterly, "It's just that a few days ago, the master was still in the Combined Realm, and within a few days, it was already a Cave Realm, and this speed is really.... To the surprise of the apprentices. ”

"It's more about the state of mind. Yang Zhen sighed, "This time I returned to the Split Demon City, I saw the master I hadn't seen for thirty years, and even the older generation of seniors who had been fighting back then, and I saw the offensive of the demon clan again, which made my state of mind far better than before and more stable, plus that life-and-death fight, I was able to go one step further and break through to the Cave Void Realm." ”

"Okay, although the order I received is top secret, but after all, you are my founding disciple, and you will definitely be my left arm and right arm in the future, you can understand part of the content, you come to see this map. Yang Zhen pointed to the map on the table.

Liang Xiao looked carefully and saw that the entire Yangzhou Liangzhou was divided into three circles, and these three circles were turned into many small pieces.

"This is?" Liang Xiao frowned.

Yang Zhen laughed, "That day, the city lord told me that sooner or later, Yangliang Erzhou would also become a city of guards, but I didn't expect this day to come so early. Isn't this line of defense like a city of three guards? ”

Liang Xiao said speechlessly, "This line of defense.... Regardless of which part of it is breached, won't the entire defense zone be like a fictitious defense?"

Yang Zhen nodded, "So we have built three defense zones, and this is what I will tell you next, our three defense lines are divided into ninety-nine areas, the first line has forty-four defense areas, the second line of defense has thirty-three, and the third line has twenty-two. In addition to the necessary guards in the city, we will also set up a double department of heaven and earth. ”

"Heaven and earth?" Liang Xiao wondered.

"Yes, the purpose of the existence of the two divisions of heaven and earth is to solve the situation of insufficient guarding strength in each defending city, and the personnel of the two divisions will act more freely than the personnel guarding the city, and they generally handle their own time in normal times, or to kill the demon clan, or to patrol the inner border, only when the guard force in a certain place is seriously lacking, the personnel of the two divisions will be forced to go to the rescue, and the rest of the situation will move more freely. ”

Liang Xiao thought carefully, and finally could only sigh, "I believe that many monks have made the right decision. ”

Yang Zhen continued,

"Then for you children who are guarding the city, according to the arrangement of the city lord, the original arrangement for everyone is to go to the Yangjia Academy to study for at least three years, and those who are out of the body realm can leave on their own after three years, or it doesn't matter if you want to continue your studies, but for you, you are not only my founding disciple, but also a battle-hardened sword cultivator, so there is a second way for you, that is, you can choose not to go to the academy directly, but follow me to the construction and inspection of the garrison city with me, and when you reach the distraction realm, you can also choose to enter the double department。 ”

"Then naturally follow you, master. Liang Xiao said without hesitation.

"Very well, I guess you're going to be like that. Yang Zhen smiled and said, "My defense area is the twenty-seventh defense area, and I am not only the general person in charge there, but also one of the members of the Heavenly Division. ”

"I'll get to the distraction realm as soon as possible. Liang Xiao nodded.

"There's no need to be so anxious," Yang Zhen waved his hand, "There are still a few years before the war, and the materials, personnel, etc., to be allocated for the construction of the city, will take time to regulate." What's more, there are thirteen guarded cities ahead to support us for a period of respite. ”

Yang Zhen looked at the young man in front of him, and suddenly couldn't help laughing, "Lao Tzu is really looking forward to the scene where our master and apprentice kill the demon clan now." ”

Liang Xiao touched the long sword behind his back.

"That day will not be far off. ”

......................................

At the same time, in the Split Demon City, in the City Lord's Mansion, Chen Ming looked at the condensed phantom in front of him, and said lightly, "How come Emperor Yan has time to come to my Guarding City today." ”

The phantom sounded halfway, "All the things have been arranged." But it's still up to you to defend the city to delay for them. ”

"How long is a period of time?" asked the old man rhetorically

"It is conservatively estimated that the guard formation can be successfully built in three years. ”

"This, you relax, even if it doesn't last for three years, the city I guard can still kill the demon clan and give you enough time to delay. ”

The Phantom nodded, and spoke again after a while, "It's been hard over the years. ”

The old man snorted coldly, "It's hard, I'm not hard. Since the founding of the city, I have only shot more than a thousand times, but look at all the soldiers in this guarded city, you can see that this group of people has changed batch after batch!"

The old man's voice gradually rose up,

"These soldiers who have died in battle in the city I have guarded, the entire city of defense can't let go of their bones! You are called the Emperor Yan by the Terrans, are you right about them? Are you worthy of the Terrans? Are you right about the soldiers who died in battle? Even now I can't count how many soldiers have died in the city I guard, and how can you, Emperor Yan, the only emperor of the Terran race, have not come to the city of guarding once in 500 years? Have you not once come to say hello to the soldiers of the city I guarded? Not even once! If it weren't for the Demon Clan's expansion of the offensive again, if it weren't for the situation being tense again, when would you, Emperor Yan, plan to come to my guarded city to have a look?"

The phantom paused for a long time,

"I am ashamed of the city guarded, and I am indeed sorry for the soldiers of the city guarded, but Chen Ming, you have to believe that I also have my own difficulties. The demon clan was able to stop attacking the remaining Yangliang Erzhou, including why Bai Ze had never made a move over the years, and there was no major movement on the border, which was inseparable from my fight and planning with Bai Ze, and my state was also very bad, and I couldn't leave the Human Palace at all, including this distraction trip is already my limit. ”

The old man interrupted impatiently, "I don't care what kind of plan you have, and I don't care what your intentions are, if you still have the human race in your heart, and the courage to sacrifice your life for the human race, then I can still honor you as the Yan Emperor, if you can't do it, wipe your ass and leave as soon as possible, you are just a monk who cultivates to a higher realm than me." ”

The phantom frowned, "Chen Ming, if you don't reach the realm of the emperor, there are some things I can't explain to you! Of course I have what you said, everything I do can only be to continue to move forward with the human race!"

The old man let out a long sigh, "You can survive with the Terrans first." ”
