Fighting a war is fighting money and food, Lin Xiao looked at this report and realized this sentence again, the same is true in the world of cultivating immortals, fighting a war is fighting resources, after a battle, the savings of the Heavenly Saint Sect for many years are gone, and even the Xuanjing earned by becoming a warmonger before has all been invested in it.

"How to seal the reward is a problem, if you don't do it well, something big will happen"

The next thing that gave Lin Xiao a headache was the reward of these six or seven thousand people, the Heavenly Saint Sect is okay to say, it's really not okay to use the merit points of the sect first, but those scattered cultivators and the rest of the sect disciples don't recognize your merit points.

And all the Heavenly Saint Sect can take out now is the corpses of more than 10,000 demon beasts, of course, this is also a huge wealth, and the value will not be less than a few million Xuan Jing, but this is not ready to be used, those demon beast materials are for scattered cultivation, and they can't use them.

Lin Xiao rubbed his head, got up and walked out of the camp tent, and patrolled the camp, the whole camp was full of blood, and the screams were all made by those wounded, and the whole camp fell into a slump after the excitement.

When the monks saw the corpse, they were also saddened, they were once living people, but now they are all dead.

"Boss"

"Zhang Shouza, how are the battle exploits counted?"

"It's not out yet, it still needs time, I don't have enough manpower, there are too many things that need to be counted"

"It's okay, if you have time, the order is down, the monks who participate in this battle, regardless of their identity, will get two rewards, the first is the reward they deserve, and the second is the reward from my Heavenly Holy Sect, which can be regarded as a heart of the Heavenly Holy Sect for the human race."

"Ah, boss, this, this, our wealth will not be able to eat"

"It's okay, you can eat, since you want to get two rewards, then you have to give us time to count, the camp of the Black Wind Valley will start to retreat tomorrow, and all of them will be withdrawn to Gongming City, and only two hundred people will be stationed here to watch.

In addition, the way of reward has been changed, and it is directly told to them that we can't take out more pills, magic weapons, and spirit runes now, so the reward can be converted into Xuanjing, or demon beast materials, and they can choose by themselves, but the price has to be according to the market price."

"I see, sir"

Zhang Mingtang was stunned for a moment, and then immediately understood, six or seven thousand people gathered in Gongming City, and everyone had reward materials, and when the time came, it was not necessary to spend the money in Gongming City, and even the Heavenly Saint Sect had the right to bargain, and the value of all kinds of resources would definitely plummet at that time, in fact, the Heavenly Saint Sect did not need to pay so much, but had a good reputation, Zhang Mingtang couldn't help but praise Lin Xiao in his heart.

Lin Xiao didn't know what he was thinking about in his heart, but he felt that Black Wind Valley was not suitable for being stationed for a long time at all, there was no Xuan Qi at all, which was not conducive to cultivation or healing, in fact, what really wanted to be stationed for a long time must be a place with spiritual veins.

Soon Zhang Mingtang spread the news, and immediately the entire camp immediately boiled again, and everyone's favorability towards the Heavenly Saint Sect suddenly exploded, after all, in this battle, the disciples of the Heavenly Saint Sect took the lead, and now they are so generous, they naturally feel that the Heavenly Saint Sect is good.

Waiting until the next day, the monks in the camp of the Black Wind Valley began to retreat, before the disciples of the Heavenly Saint Sect rushed back from Jingzhou, and ran away with hundreds of dragon horses, they could no longer be used as war horses, but they were still able to be used to pull carts, hundreds of carts pulled the seriously wounded to walk on the ground, and specially sent guards.

Then there was the scattered cultivation and the rest of the sect disciples, after the disciples of the Heavenly Saint Sect were broken, it took another day, and hundreds of carriages returned to pull those loot, mainly the flesh and blood of those demon beasts.

Hundreds of people were busy for three or four days, and it took them all the **, Neidan, fur, bones, claws and toes, fangs and so on to separate all the more than 10,000 demon beasts, and they also got millions of catties of flesh and blood, which can't be wasted, and it's not bad to go back and make jerky or something like that if you can't finish eating.

The storage bags that the Heavenly Saint Sect could call on were all full, but hundreds of cars still couldn't pull them down, at least two or three trips.

"Master, this is the material of that fourth-order mutated wind chasing wolf"

Zhang Mingtang handed over the materials of the fourth-order demon beast to Lin Xiao alone, this was Lin Xiao's trophy, no one dared to swallow it, and the rest of the monks couldn't use it.

"Yes, I finally recovered some losses"

Lin Xiao nodded, the price of demon beast materials rises with the change of grade, ordinary first-order demon beasts are only about a dozen to a hundred Xuanjing, the second-order is a few hundred to thousands of Xuanjing, the third-order is thousands to tens of thousands, and the fourth-order has at least 100,000 Xuanjing, and when the time comes, if you bring it to the Qi Kingdom, you may be able to create a fourth-order magic weapon.

In fact, Lin Xiao's loss on this battlefield is the greatest, there are more than 100 dead disciples alone, the system deducts more than 10,000 points from him, the protective shield also costs 3,000, and the rest are scattered with more than 2,000, fortunately he asked Zhang Mingtang to accept a group of disciples before the war, otherwise the points will really be emptied.

"Master, now that the crisis on our side of the Heavenly Saint Sect has been resolved, how to deliver the news?"

"Exaggerate the casualties several times, and tell others that the Heavenly Saint Sect is unable to fight anymore, don't expect us to come to the rescue"

"This, the boss, the rest of the states and counties are easy to say, but the Danyang Sect is over there..."

"The same, don't forget, the beast tide is not over, the ghost knows when it will fight again, and the stabbing god, if you don't retain a little strength, you don't know how to die when the time comes"

"I understand, the casualties are exaggerated by three times, and they are more than half"

Zhang Mingtang replied, only a little over a thousand of the 8,000 people were really killed, including more than 100 people from the Heavenly Saint Sect, two or three hundred people from the rest of the sects, and the rest were scattered cultivators, but there were actually a lot of injuries, and it really took time to recuperate.

"In addition, you can't transfer all our people to Gongming City, you know what virtues are cultivated, and then they will definitely fall into a carnival, to say that it is unpleasant to say that they are depraved and relaxed, our people will be transferred a little more to go to the mountain gate and Baiwu Mountain, and practice diligently, surely many people will break through, we have to learn to break through and then stand"

"Understood"

"In addition, the spies will go out a little more, the Zhizu demon beast has not been killed, and it is a fox, the fox has always held grudges, maybe there will be a horse gun, you must be vigilant"

"Yes, I will leave this matter to Bai Xixi and Li Mingyang to do, and I will leave a few more in the Black Wind Valley camp in the Purple Mansion."

"Okay, I need to go to Komeito City to sit down, if something comes to me, I'll come immediately"

Lin Xiao nodded, and then returned to Gongming City with a group of disciples, Gongming City is a large place and can accommodate tens of thousands of people, so it is not crowded with so many people coming in.

After another three days, the statistics of the Heavenly Saint Sect's military exploits have come out, and everyone can go to the Heavenly Saint Sect's management office in Gongming City to exchange for the rewards of their military exploits, and get the money, most of them are in a carnival, and only a few people choose to retreat.

Lin Xiao also understood these reactions, everyone's mental pressure was very high during the days of the war, and now they need to relax and vent their energy, so the wine and meat in Gongming City have become extremely popular, and even the rice wine that has always been bad has been sold out, and the opera garden is full every day.

For the rest of the war, drinking a glass of wine and listening to a drama became an extremely pleasant thing for many people.

However, the disciples of the Heavenly Saint Sect still did not relax, and there were still thousands of people stationed in the White Fog Mountain and the Mountain Gate, patrolling day and night, and even spies rode intact dragon horses to continuously enter the territory of the Chen Kingdom to inquire about the news.

Siming Mountain also got Lin Xiao's message, and after knowing that the Heavenly Saint Sect was unable to fight again, he was very disappointed, Wang Dao didn't have Lin Xiao's courage, launched a decisive charge, defeated the demon beast, and was still playing a war of attrition.

Five days later, a bad news came, because the monks in Baiyan Prefecture were not united, the border defense line broken by the demon beasts, at least 3,000 monks were killed in the battle, and thousands of scattered cultivators escaped.

The entire Baiyan Prefecture suddenly entered a state of collapse, and the remnant monks had no ability to fight back except for stationing a few third-order spirit mountains, so they could only let tens of thousands of demon beasts wreak havoc, watching them break through one low-level spirit mountain after another, and countless mortal monks were reduced to demon beast food.

And because of the collapse of Baiyan Prefecture, it also led to the loopholes in the defense line of the two states and counties in the north and south of Baiyan Prefecture, south of Baiyan Prefecture is Tiannan Prefecture, and Tiannan Prefecture is Tianyun Prefecture further south.

Originally, Tiannan Prefecture's strength was not strong, and it even put seventy or eighty percent of its strength on the western border defense line, and now that Baiyan Prefecture collapsed, it was very likely that tens of thousands of demon beasts would go south, and if it really did that, Tiannan Prefecture might also be defeated.

Therefore, Tiannan Prefecture had to give up the border defense line, retreat and station on the two third-order spirit mountains, and the rest of the men and horses were arranged to the junction with Baiyan Prefecture, and the hinterland of Tiannan Prefecture was even more strictly enforced, giving up the first- and second-order low-level spirit mountains, and then the people and horses gathered on all the third-order spirit mountains in the state, so Tiannan Prefecture still had to give up millions of mortals.

Wang Dao's worst fear still happened, if Tiannan Prefecture collapses, then the next thing is Tianyun Prefecture, with the strength of Tianyun Prefecture, it is extremely difficult to fight on two fronts, maybe when the time comes, he will have to give up some territory and gather people, so that the strength of Tianyun Prefecture will suffer heavy losses.

This is an unsolvable problem, in addition to strength, it is not just by resourcefulness, Wang Dao has repeatedly passed letters to Lin Xiao, but Lin Xiao can't come up with a better way.

However, when Lin Xiao heard that the mortals of Tiannan Prefecture began to migrate to Tianyun Prefecture, he immediately moved his mind and immediately sent a message to Wang Dao, asking him to open his mouth at the border and let those mortals in, if Tianyun Prefecture was lucky and not breached, then these mortals would be of great use in the future.

Wang Dao agreed, anyway, these mortals will die if they don't run, and Tianyun Prefecture will also die if it is breached, so what if they give them a little hope?

So soon, Tiannan Prefecture set off a wave of refuge in the south, countless mortals went south along the road, and the sadness was naturally extremely unbearable, but Lin Xiao sent people to Tianluo City, once the mortals from Tiannan Prefecture came in, they immediately tested the spirits of their children, as long as there was a spiritual root, they would immediately bring back to the Heavenly Saint Sect, and their mortal families could also bring it together, Lin Xiao's actions made Wang Dao stunned.
