Somewhere in the South Lake, less than three zhang above the water, the radius is only the size of a tabletop, when the wind and waves rise, the lake can even directly shoot the highest part of the island, not so much that it is an island, but that it is just a reef to apt. In this inconspicuous place that only waterfowl occasionally visit on weekdays, there is a man in a green shirt sitting at this moment, but this man has been sitting here for nearly a month as if an old monk has entered the meditation, his beard has grown, and his body is also covered with dust, and from a distance, it is impossible to tell whether this person looks beautiful or ugly, young or old. A big bird flew to the top of the island with a fat big fish in its hand, and landed the dead man on top of his head as a stump, and then swallowed the fat fish that was still struggling in his mouth, rested a little, and used his two claws to borrow strength on the "stake", and was about to fly away. But it was suddenly shocked to find that its feet seemed to have been grabbed by something, and even if it fluttered its wings vigorously, it still couldn't fly half an inch. The big bird flapped its wings in horror, trying to pick up the unknown object that had grabbed its feet, but despite its efforts to feed, it had no effect. In less than ten breaths, the frightened big bird was exhausted, and it let out a hoarse chirp in despair, thinking that it would leave its life here, but suddenly it felt that its claws were loosened, and when it flapped its wings again, it flew far away, and the big bird that survived the catastrophe did not care to look back to see what had imprisoned it for so long, and when it was free, it rushed straight into the air like an arrow from the string, and made a happy chirping sound while flying, as if celebrating its own great calamity.

The sitting man moved, and at some point he had quietly gotten up, looked at the big bird that had survived the catastrophe soaring in the air, and muttered to himself: "It seems that what I thought was too simple, I originally wanted to be a bird as free as you, but I had too many worries for me to rest assured, and I had to change myself for them." ”

A blue light flashed from above and down, all the dust disappeared, the long beard was completely removed by the man's hand, and a handsome young man took the place of the scruffy image of the withered man, he raised his eyes to look at the sun in the sky, and his figure disappeared into the void in a flash.

When Lu Yi returned to Qilin City, it had been nearly three months since he traveled with Sima Hongqian, because when he left, he told people and Tuzi that he didn't have to worry about himself, and these few months were not too long for everyone, so it didn't cause any unnecessary panic, but when Lu Yi came back and announced that he was going to cooperate with Dongtuoguo, it shook the entire sandstone area like a thunderclap on the ground.

The reputation of Dongtuoguo has always been bad, and because of this, the forces in the sandstone area are strictly guarding against it, and on the other hand, they are also actively looking for thighs that can compete with this behemoth to hug, and finally caught the line of Chen Yunzi, but I never thought that in just 20 years before and after, the spokesperson of this young Chen Yunzi was actually in collusion with Dongtuoguo, how could this not make everyone worry?

For this reason, Lu Yi once again went to the various sandstone forces to walk around, one is to supervise the progress of the offensive and defensive improvement work of each force, and the other purpose is to explain to the masterminds of each force separately. He didn't bring everyone together, because he was afraid that everyone would think that Lu Yi would use the last time Zhang Yongyun and Dong Tuoguo conspired to trick everyone together, and then concentrate on the attack, and those who follow me will prosper and those who disobey me will die, and he also showed his sincerity when he came to the door in person. I don't know how Lu Yi did the work with the leaders of these forces, or what kind of promises he gave them, wherever Lu Yi walked, all the forces were obediently silenced, and no longer objected to the cooperation with the Eastern Expansion Kingdom, which also aroused the curiosity of many people, and they tried their best to find out what Lu Yi talked about with the heads of those forces, but those who participated in the talks with Lu Yi were all silent, even if the heads of the various forces probed each other, they were all secretive and unclear. After more than a month of mediation and visits, when Lu Yi returned to Qilin City again, there was no longer a single voice of opposition in the entire sandstone area. Dongtuoguo has already sent an envoy, it is none other than Zhang Yongji, who was originally planted in Lu Yi's hands. It's just that this time Zhang Yong has become very honest, and he shows enough respect for this young man who has calculated himself, and he does not treat Lu Yi at all with the eyes of a mid-stage spiritual monk who treats the Imperial Spiritual Monk, but completely treats Lu Yi as an equal, and after some information exchange between the two sides, Zhang Yong Ji left in a hurry.

The various forces in the sandstone area began to gather manpower, and according to Lu Yi's request, they finally gathered an army of 30,000 monks, led by ten early stage monks of the spirit building, and Lu Yi and the human butcher personally pressed the formation, and pressed towards the border of Yuema Kingdom, a great power in the Western Regions nearly 200,000 miles away. At the same time, Dongtuo also announced the conquest of the Yuema Kingdom and dispatched an army of 100,000 monks and 200,000 elite armor soldiers. When the country of Yuema and several neighboring countries around it heard the news, they immediately fell into chaos. Yuema hurriedly dispatched troops to the border to block the invasion of Dongtuo, but before the personnel were assembled, rebellions broke out in many counties in the country, and even some monk armies mutinied in the process of mobilization. Several small countries that have always regarded the Moon Ma Kingdom as the core have also expressed their break with the Moon Ma Kingdom, and the Moon Ma Kingdom has been hollowed out all of a sudden.

Yuema Kingdom is actually not weak in its own strength, the two ancestors are both consummate monks in the late ninth order, and there are more than ten eighth-order monks in the country, including three people in the late eighth-order period, originally plus several small countries around them, they have nearly twenty spiritual monks, more than 80,000 monks below the spiritual level, and occupy a favorable geographical situation, enough to fight with the alliance between the Eastern Expansion Kingdom and Sandstone, but this civil strife, the strength is greatly reduced, and the defection of the allies has made the Yuema Kingdom a light pole commander, and the two late-ninth order monks can only be trusted by the relatives of their respective families and a few disciples The descendants are less than 30,000"Pro-soldiers", in such a state, Mo said that the army that resisted the Eastern Expansion Kingdom, I am afraid that even the more than 30,000 people in the sandstone area brought by Lu Yi will not be able to eat, and the only advantage is that in terms of top monks, they have two ninth-order late-stage consummate monks, and the other party only has one person on the surface.

The sandstone coalition led by Lu Yi was not the main force in this attack on Yuema Kingdom, and even Lu Yi was not the commander of this battle, which was also communicated with Sima Hongqian in advance in Dongtuo Kingdom, and Sima Hongqian also deliberately took the opportunity to show his strength to Lu Yi. Lu Yi came with troops this time, completely as a bystander, to see how a behemoth could be easily defeated after losing people's hearts. Once the war is really coming, especially when the opponent's strength is stronger than their own, all parties have shown their true faces in order to preserve their interests to the greatest extent and even take the opportunity to expand, they have shown their true faces: there are those who take refuge in the enemy, those who are wise to protect themselves, those who take advantage of the fire to rob, and of course, those who want to be loyal and filial. In the face of such a premeditated and well-prepared opponent, no matter how strong the top handful is, they will not be able to turn the tide by themselves.

The war between the Eastern Expansion Kingdom and the Sandstone Forces against the Yuema Kingdom lasted less than half a year before the defense line of the Yuema Kingdom was completely broken down like a bamboo, and the two ninth-order late-stage monks of the Yuema Kingdom had no choice but to flee away with the elite descendants of their families, and the remnants of the leaderless Yuema Kingdom soon surrendered and fled, and a huge country fell apart, and the people were in a panic, not knowing how the new master would treat them.

Lu Yi watched coldly from beginning to end, he didn't expect that a powerful country that looked like a god would become so vulnerable under the enemy's covert infiltration and disintegration, and the shock in his heart was incomprehensible. Thinking back to what he had heard about the infiltration of the demons into the human race by the alliance and Sima Hongqian, and the fact that the demons had left a lot of follow-up when they were defeated, Lu Yi was convinced in his heart that Sima Hongqian's statement that the demons had actually begun to divide the human race a long time ago. He couldn't help but be a little afraid, if the human race was fighting with the demon race, and there was a fire in the courtyard like the Yuema Kingdom, or if the war was unfavorable in the early stage, and some wall grasses began to turn, then the entire continent would inevitably be in chaos. At that time, the human race that was in chaos was simply unable to resist the attack of the united demons. The most terrible thing is that just like in the later period of the Yuema Kingdom, no one can trust anyone, and no one knows if the people around them will turn against themselves and stab themselves in the back.

Lu Yi really couldn't sit still this time, he had never thought about these things before and had never encountered them, what he had been exposed to before was basically a small fight at the tactical level, and with a little brain, he could completely get things done and turn the opponent around, but he really hadn't touched on such a strategic strategy as the disintegration of the Yuema Kingdom, and he never thought that the war could be fought like this. Sima Hongqian really taught Lu Yi a good lesson this time, and used the living example of Yuema Kingdom to completely wake up Lu Yi.
