Chapter 274: Heavy Troops
"Your Excellency is Senior Brother Mu Shi, fortunately. At this moment, a young man with a cyan tattoo on his face came over and greeted Shi Mu.
"Are you?" Shi Mu glanced at this person and asked.
"Hehe, under the surname Yu, a single name is a meaning, yesterday I saw Brother Mu Shi show his might in the competition, and his attainments in fire attribute magic are profound, which is really eye-opening. The tattooed youth laughed.
"Brother Yu has won the prize. Shi Mu said, his voice slightly cold.
The tattooed young man seemed to sense that Shi Mu didn't want to talk, but he didn't have the slightest displeasure, laughed, and was about to say something more.
At this moment, the gray-clothed envoy disguised as Husselei, accompanied by several local branch deacons, walked over from somewhere, and more than 500 victors saw this, and hurriedly greeted them, forming a circle, and the conversation also stopped.
"Everyone, the preliminary round has ended, you can break through, worthy of being the elite of my teaching, I congratulate you in advance!" Husselei stood in front of everyone, cleared his throat, and spoke.
"Thanks to Envoy Lee's care!"
"Thank you, Envoy Lee!"
When the people present heard this, they bowed their hands to him.
"But you must also guard against arrogance and rashness, the next big competition in Quyang City is the most important thing, I hope you can continue to move forward bravely, ride the wind and waves, serve the Lord of the Underworld, and serve our sect! Now I announce, you can set off, target Quyang City!" Seeing this, Hussere's eyes showed a hint of satisfaction, and he waved his hand in all directions, stopping everyone's next words, and announced loudly.
After a few days of adaptation, Hussere has become more and more comfortable with his current identity. Between the gestures, there is already a bit of a swaggering demeanor.
"Yes!" more than 500 people agreed in unison. Morale was boosted.
Hussele nodded in satisfaction, and a deacon beside him stepped forward. Whispered:
"Your Excellency, do you need to send one or two people to the altar to help you bring these people to Quyang City. ”
"No, I'm alone. Hussele shook his head and refused.
The man originally wanted to pat the messenger's ass, but he was rejected so simply, and he couldn't help but retreat with a stupid face.
"Then I'll wish the envoy all the best. The stocky deacon stepped forward and arched his hand.
"Let's go. Hussele nodded to a few people and waved his hand. He stepped on a tall horse and headed for the city gate.
More than 500 people mounted their mounts and followed.
From here to Quyang City, if you walk, it will take at least two or three months, and it will be faster to ride a horse, and you can reach it in only one month.
Five hundred horsemen gathered into a torrent and roared out of the city gates.
The nearby crowd looked at these people enviously and talked about it. It's all about going to the Xihe Continent.
In the crowd, two inconspicuous gray-robed men glanced at each other, and then walked towards the back of the crowd, hiding their figures.
......
The main altar of the Stygian Cult. In the ceremonial hall of the Temple of Hades.
This time, except for the main seat and the first place on the left, which were still empty, the seats of the other ten hall masters were almost full. There was only one hall master who did not arrive.
"The reason why we have come here is because the situation at the border has changed. The situation is urgent, so I won't say much. Master of Confucius. You've just come back from the border, so it's up to you to tell you about the situation. The white-haired old man sitting on the right side of the main seat looked at a middle-aged Confucian student on the right and said.
"Ladies and gentlemen, according to the latest information, the Tongtian Immortal Sect has deployed a large number of people and horses in the Weiguo near our Donglin and Linhai provinces, and at the same time, there are also many traces of disciples of the Heavenly Demon Sect in the Chen Kingdom, which is close to the Heihe Province in the north, and it is said that even some small and medium-sized sects in the two countries have a lot of abnormal behaviors. The middle-aged Confucian stood up and said with a frown.
As soon as these words came out, except for the white-haired old man who had already known about it, the faces of the other people present at the meeting changed.
"Judging from the current situation, since the Tongtian Immortal Sect and the Heavenly Demon Sect have already deployed troops on our border, they should have reached some kind of consensus, and they have even formed an alliance again, I am afraid that the two are about to send troops. The wide-mouthed middle-aged man opposite the middle-aged Confucian said.
"In our current situation, if we are attacked on the back, we will not be able to defend it at all. I'm afraid that in two months, they will be on our altar in just two months. A young woman looked like a hall master frowned slightly.
"You can't hold on to it. Since the Tongtian Immortal Sect and the Heavenly Demon Sect were heavily pressed, their interiors were bound to be empty. We might as well send more elite disciples to infiltrate the big cities of the Lushan Dynasty and the Great Qin Kingdom from the central part of the country, and turn him upside down like the Lord of the Liu Palace! The rest of the sect members stayed at the main altar and opened the Great Sect Protector Array to defend it. I'd like to see who can't hold it first!" the red-eyed man on the other side snorted coldly.
"Di Feng, you are completely arrogant! If the Tongtian Immortal Sect and the Heavenly Demon Sect really join forces to attack the main altar, and a large number of our elite disciples are not here, how long can the Guardian Sect Formation last alone? Not to mention the plan you can think of, the other party will not be able to think of it? Don't forget, how long has the incident in Tianyu City happened, they will definitely take very strict precautions in the country, and they will not be left empty at that time. The curly-haired youth sneered and said.
"Huo Qing, then what do you say, negotiate peace or surrender?" Di Feng glanced at him and sneered.
"Of course, activate the Great Guardian Array, and then concentrate all your strength to defend the main altar and fight to the death with these people! The Zuo Protector and his old man have been in retreat for so many years, maybe they have advanced to the heavenly position, and at that time, let them steal chickens and rice!" Huo Qingdao, a curly-haired young man, said.
"If the old man of the Left Protector fails to advance to the Heavenly Rank, will we wait here to die?" Di Feng said.
"Waiting for death is better than your method of sending you to die. Huo Qing sneered.
"Ahem!"
Just when Di Feng and Huo Qing were arguing, Liu An stood up with a light cough, attracting everyone's attention.
"Hall Master Liu, do you have any good plans?" the white-haired old man asked.
"Right Protector, all the hall masters, the spiritual veins in the Lushan Dynasty and the Great Qin Kingdom have long been on the verge of exhaustion, and the two sects have coveted the spiritual veins of my Western Xia Kingdom for many years, but in the name of eradicating heresy, they have joined forces to offend my Dark Moon Sect, so that the Eastern Sect Leader has fallen to protect the Sect, which has made my disciples indignant, whether it is the Huo Hall Lord or the Di Hall Master, they are all out of consideration for the sake of this sect, but at this moment, the great enemy is at present, don't mess with yourself, so it is cheaper for others. Liu An glanced at Di Feng and Huo Qing respectively, and said so.
After saying that, the eyes of several hall masters, including Di Feng and Huo Qing, were filled with hatred and revenge, but they didn't speak, and the hall was surprisingly quiet.
"This time the two sects of Taoguang have been obscure for a hundred years, and now they intend to join forces to commit another offense against my realm, I am afraid that the comers are not good, and we are not afraid of death, but after all, the enemy is outnumbered, if I rush to fight, life and death are small, if it causes my Eastern Sect to fall apart, then I will be ashamed of the Eastern Sect Master, and even more ashamed of the Underworld Lord. Liu An paused and continued.
"According to the will of the Lord of the Liu Palace, what should I do, please make it clear!" Huo Qing asked.
"In my opinion, all hall masters should immediately issue an order, notify the disciples of the branch altar to which they belong, pay close attention to the movements of the two sects, and once the other party violates, they should harass and delay at all costs. In addition, some more disciples were left to defend the main altar with the benefit of the great array of guardians. The rest of the people, with the elite disciples of the sect, crossed the sea together and retreated to the Xihe Continent. Liu An's eyes swept over everyone present one by one, and said calmly.
"Wouldn't that be a sacrifice for a large number of disciples?" asked the young woman.
"If you want to get out of it this time, I'm afraid it's impossible, it's inevitable to give up and sacrifice, but if the sacrifice can be exchanged for a glimmer of hope in the future, this sacrifice is worth it. "Willow Shore Road.
"What the Lord of the Liu Hall said is right, there is the West Sea separating us, and the two sects will have no way to take us for a while. Although the Xihe Continent is dangerous, it is rich in resources, as long as we operate well, we may not have the opportunity to regain our strength and counterattack the Dongzhou Continent. A big man with a black face nodded in agreement.
"Hall Master Liu, although your strategy is feasible, but there are only five Hanhai Giant Boats in my sect, according to two hundred people, it can only carry a thousand people, if only a thousand people cross the sea, except for the damage on the way, even if you arrive at the Xihe Continent, what can you do?" Huo Qing said.
The rest of the people in the hall also looked at the willow bank, and the number of ships was indeed a big problem.
After all, the West Sponge stretches for thousands of miles, and the sea beasts on the way are not counted, and it is impossible for ordinary ships to cross safely, and only the five spiritual weapon-level Hanhai Giant Ships in the sect can reach the Xihe Continent.
"This is not to worry about the lord of the palace, the matter of the ferry, I have my own way to ensure that it can accommodate the number of five thousand people. Liu An smiled slightly.
"This is a matter of life and death related to my teaching, how can I listen to you, unless you can make a military order. Huo Qing said.
Seeing this, Di Feng was furious in his heart, and was about to speak, but Liu An's voice rang out:
"Okay, one word is a decision! The right protector and the hall masters are here, and if I, Liu'an, can't get together the ferry within two months, I will be punished for apostasy. ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone present was stunned, and there was a faint difference in the eyes that looked at Liu An.
"Even if the problem of the ship has been solved, but now that time is pressing, and the elite disciples in the sect are scattered all over the place on weekdays, how can you select and gather them in such a short time?" asked the young woman again.
"I've thought about it for a long time. Aren't the primaries for going to sea being held in various branches now?We can ...... like this," Liu An smiled slightly, and said the plan in his heart.
When everyone in the hall heard this, they all nodded, but this time no one objected, including Huo Qing.
"Hall Master Liu, since this matter is raised by you, you are solely responsible, and the resources within the sect can be called upon by you. However, there are many sea beasts in the depths of the Western Sea, and the Sea Clan is also very hostile to our Stygian Sect, so we must pay attention to this. Seeing that everyone had reached an agreement, the white-haired old man spoke.
Liu An understood. Liu An bowed solemnly to the white-haired old man and said. (To be continued.) )
