Chapter 227, Pure Water City
It has been a year since Xu Tian led the troops to recover the lost territory in the south, in this year, Xu Tian can be said to have made great achievements, and after echoing with the army of Manling City, he directly recovered three-quarters of the lost land, so to speak, Xu Tian's status in the Tianfeng Empire at this moment is already a well-deserved one person above ten thousand people, and even Marshal Zhao Bin is far inferior to him.
However, Xu Tian still encountered big trouble, that is, he was greatly resisted in attacking Longquan City, this Longquan City due to geographical reasons, has a natural barrier formed by the Holy Star River, which can be described as easy to defend and difficult to attack, at this moment the Shenzhou Empire has held the army in Longquan City, and has been attacking Longquan City for three months, but still nothing.
"Why, you're still bothering about attacking Longquan City" On this day, when Xu Tian was looking at the map of Longquan City and pondering, Xiang Hero walked in and said.
"Hey, this Longquan City is really not something that can be captured by manpower," Xu Tian sighed.
"Actually, you don't have to be too anxious, you have recovered most of the lost territory in a year, which can be said to be unparalleled, and now you have taken this opportunity to let these soldiers rest and rest, they are also tired after years of fighting," said Xiang Hero.
"Is it" Xu Tian smiled bitterly and looked into the distance and said, he has always remembered the beautiful woman in the distance in his heart, and now that a year has passed, how can he not be anxious.
"There's a secret letter from you" handed the hero a letter stamped with the seal of the god of water.
"It's the so-called promotion and reward for the three armies, you can't open it and see it," Xu Tian said and continued to look at the map of Longquan City, in the past year, he had received countless such secret orders, and now his official position in the entire government and opposition was only lower than Zhao Bin and Hong Mao.
"It's really time for you to take a serious look this time," Xiang Hero sighed.
"Okay, let me see what's new" Xu Tian took the letter, opened it and looked at it, his whole body seemed to have been hit hard, and the letter also fell to the ground.
"Are you okay?" asked Xiang Hero hurriedly, he had already read the contents of the letter, so his reaction to Xu Tian was also expected by him.
"It's okay, don't make a big deal about this matter first, I'll take a trip to Shenyin City to see what the situation is," Xu Tian said in a deep voice.
"Don't worry, go and come back quickly, you have to remember one sentence, you will not be subject to military orders abroad" nodded to the hero.
Xu Tian didn't speak, shook his head and left alone, rushing to Shenyin City, the letter did not contain it, but it was to ask Xu Tian to give up attacking Longquan City and negotiate peace with the Shenzhou Empire.
"Why, why did you leave suddenly, didn't you want to reclaim the lost territory in the south" Xu Tian had just walked ten miles when he met Tangshan, who seemed to be waiting for him.
"I don't bother the third prince about my business" Xu Tian looked at the brightly dressed Tangshan and said, the last time he met Tangshan, although Tangshan worshiped under the Beast King's door, he was also dressed in tatters, and now he suddenly became brightly dressed, which had to make people suspicious.
"It's a good thing for you, it seems that you have already regarded the Tianfeng Empire as your thing," Tang San said sharply.
"Xu Tian is a rough person, and there may be something inappropriate in his words, but I don't know how the third prince knew that the Tianfeng Empire was going to negotiate peace with the Shenzhou Empire" Xu Tian said in a deep voice, judging from Tang Shan's words, Tang Shan must have come here to know that the Tianfeng Empire may want to negotiate peace with the Shenzhou Empire.
"How do I know, you don't care, I just want to ask you, if you really want to negotiate peace, will you agree" Tang San asked eagerly.
"If the king really wants to negotiate peace, I, as a courtier, naturally have to respect the king's opinion," Xu Tian said.
"As a courtier, you have to respect the king's opinion, if that's the case, why did you rush to Shenyin City as soon as you knew the news," Tang San mocked.
"I know you are an ambitious and ambitious person, I have a proposal here, I don't know if I should talk about it or not" Tang Shan saw that Xu Tian did not speak, and guided him step by step.
"The third prince, but it doesn't hurt to say it" Xu Tian didn't know what kind of medicine Tangshan was selling, so he said slowly.
"You don't have to go to Shenyin City, join forces with me, take back the lost land together, and then push Tang Jian to step down, and then I will crown you as the king of one word side by side, how about sharing the Tianfeng Empire with you" Tang San said eagerly with his eyes.
"The third prince's proposal is really tempting, so shouldn't I call you the king now?" Xu Tian said.
"Haha, you don't have to be so polite, we can just call each other brothers in the future," Tang San said with a laugh.
"Then I want to ask the third prince how did you know about the peace negotiation," Xu Tian's tone changed, and he said in a cold voice.
"It's okay to tell you, I heard it from the Divine Empire" Tang San saw Xu Tian's tone change, and suddenly became a little impatient.
"Then can I say that the third prince has surrendered to the Shenzhou Empire," Xu Tian mocked.
"You know what, it's called mutual use," Tang San yelled.
"I don't care if they use each other or not, I just want to tell the third prince that my ambition is by no means as simple as recovering the lost land, I also want to go straight to Beiling City and help the Tianfeng Empire open up a vast territory," Xu Tian said coldly.
"You, do you want to unify the world," Tang San said two steps back.
"No, I don't care about the Sun Moon Empire or the Great Xia Empire, I just need to attack the Shenzhou Empire," Xu Tian said and staggered away from Tangshan and walked forward.
"By the way, I want to tell the third prince that it doesn't matter who is the king, but no one can stop me from attacking the Shenzhou Empire," Xu Tian suddenly stopped and said.
"Okay, I'll see how you say it in front of Tang Jian," Tang San looked at Xu Tian's back and shouted.
Xu Tian, who has the strength of the Fighting Spirit and the Gods, is extremely fast, and in two days he also rushed to Pure Water City, which is located in the south of Shenyin City, and is a very famous forest city, the entire city is covered by forests, and it is a famous summer resort in the Tianfeng Empire.
"Let's rest here for one night, and then go to Shenyin City tomorrow" Xu Tian looked at Pure Water City and said to himself, when he sent Zhao Ruo back to Shenyin City, he passed through Pure Water City, and at that time they didn't even have money to live in a hotel, so they could only sleep on the street.
At night, Xu Tian, who didn't go to the hotel, slept in a vacant space looking at the starry sky in a daze, and suddenly a figure flashed in the sky, this figure just flashed, and three figures flashed one after another, and judging from the fluctuations of the fighting spirit of these four people, there were actually two peak fighting spirits and two half-saints.
Although Xu Tian didn't have time to see the faces of these four people clearly, he also found a familiar feeling from the fluctuations of their fighting spirit, so he took off into the air and followed behind the four people, wanting to see who these four people were.
Finally, in a dense forest, the first figure stopped running away, stopped, turned to look at the three people chasing him, this person didn't look back, it was okay for him to turn around, and when he turned around, he almost made Xu Tian exclaim, isn't this person the Yanagi Night Shadow who was defeated by the mysterious Zhan Xun, I didn't expect that he didn't die when he was pierced through the chest by a sword and fell into the sea, but judging from his current performance, he was not far from death, I saw that he was covered with wounds, embarrassed, and although the three people chasing him also had more or less injuries, they were much better than him.
The three people chasing Liu Sheng's night shadow are all dressed in night clothes, each with a devil's mask on their faces, Xu Tian can analyze that it is a man and two women by the moonlight, and he can't see it anymore.
When the three of them saw Yanagi Nightshadow stop, they all stopped, confronting Yanagi Nightshadow.
"Everyone is a member of the He clan, why don't you leave me a way to live," Yanagi Nightshadow said in a deep voice.
"Did you ever think about this when you destroyed the Hezu Island" One of the three women snorted coldly, as soon as she spoke, Xu Tian heard that she was Miyamoto Etsuko who was killed by Zhou Jinsong, but he didn't expect that she was not dead.
Xu Tian, who heard Etsuko Miyamoto's voice, immediately looked at the other two, he didn't look carefully before, but after a closer look, he immediately recognized the fighting god in the woman's hand, and therefore recognized her as Keiko Sato, and although the man was dressed in a night clothes, the temperament of the ninja would not change, it was clearly Matsushita Wensha, but his ninja knife was now replaced by a grass pheasant sword.
"It's never me who goes back to the Wazu Island, it's Matsushita who asks the sand," Yagyu Nightshadow said.
"Matsushita-kun is certainly wrong, but you are even more unforgivable, and today I will use your blood to pay tribute to thousands of Japanese compatriots," Keiko Sato said coldly.
