Chapter 201: The Man in the Shadows

Outside Anseong, campfires shine like stars.

The brightest one is the camp of the Tianji Empire's Wujia Iron Army, and the candles in the tent are bright.

The 57-year-old veteran Wu Lihai's temples are gray, his skin is dark, and his figure is still powerful.

He was covered in jet-black iron armor, with a matte tiger head entrenched on each shoulder, and three black iron rings in the tiger's mouth.

Because of the black iron ring on the shoulder. Wu Lihai is also known as the Iron Ring General, and is the general of the Tianji Wujia Iron Army.

Among them, the tiger head on the right shoulder has been deformed, which is the trace left by the 'faceless' fight with General Wanchen.

At this time, opposite Wu Lihai, there was a young man in blue clothes, with sword eyes and starry eyebrows, giving people a comfortable feeling.

It's just that the young man's skin is pale and bloodless, and with a touch of sickness and melancholy, like those 'things' outside the account, plus the empty sleeve on the left, it makes people feel pity.

But Wu Lihai knew that the one-armed man was different from those lifeless creatures, he was a dangerous person, and the aura he exuded was like a calm lake.

General Tiehuan's sharp gaze pierced the surface of the lake without a ripple

Behind the one-armed man stood a man and a woman, the male feminine and short, the female masculine and tall, completely two styles, but the natural evil exuded by the body was comparable.

The one-armed young man said lightly: "General Wu, if the envoy who persuaded him to surrender comes back tomorrow and says that the city lord of Ancheng refuses to open the city and surrender, can we directly attack the city." ”

Wu Lihai replied: "The order I got is to besiege the city, and we must wait for the victory of Huarong City and join the main force before attacking the city." ”

General Tiehuan treats the young man as his equal, and tries to restrain the unkindness in his tone.

A lazy smile appeared on the corner of the one-armed young man's mouth, and he looked at the matte iron armor on the Iron Ring General.

"It is rumored that the black armor iron army of the Tianji Empire is invincible, and the armor is the first in the world, all of which are cold iron transported from the Xuanhan Mountain of the Iron Filings Islands, each set has been hammered by Luo craftsmen, thin as a blade, and extremely light on the body, but it can withstand knife slashes, arrows, and even low-end spells, such an army is in the hands of General Wu, but because of a small border town, it is not a big joke. ”

General Wu frowned slightly, and said in a deep voice: "Ancheng is not simple, the city lord of Tengyang has followed the lord of Wanchen to fight for several years, and the faceless general, one is qiang, the other is a bow, and the battle is invincible, although in the end your joining made the war one-sided, Tengyang also swore to break away from the war and return to Ancheng to retire, but I don't know why the agreement was broken, and the primary target of the Wujia Iron Army turned out to be Ancheng, which probably has your credit, I am curious, why did you attack the insignificant Ancheng?"

The young man's only remaining right hand played with the blue bead hanging down from the hilt of the sword, stared at General Tie with interest, and said lightly: "This war is not something you and I can control, General Wu, sometimes we don't have to follow orders to do things, time is running out, think about it." ”

General Tiehuan's brow never furrowed from beginning to end.

The one-armed man was neither a prince nor a general, but his tone was not at all polite, and he looked at the world. "Anyway, as soon as the messenger returns, if the result is not what I want, the Blood Temple will attack the city, and you will see that the flesh and blood are not afraid of the blade. ”

Wu Lihai's heart sank, and the Cangbai Jun team in front of the Wujia Iron Army made him very uncomfortable.

During the war, the Blood Temple's army of the living dead has been expanding at a palpitating rate, and every time a great war ends, the dead will join that army.

Now that the blood of this Blood God Temple is going to attack the city without permission against the military order, Wu Lihai can't help but weigh in his heart, with more than 10,000 Wujia troops, can they defeat these lifeless evil creatures.

General Tiehuan weighed the pros and cons, and finally said: "Lord Blood, with the army of the Blood Temple, you can completely break through Xiaoxiao Ancheng. ”

The one-armed man put away his smile, and his voice became cold. "General Wu, I know what you are thinking, you are playing your own cleverness, you don't want your soldiers to die, you know why I need you, I want your siege equipment, you want your ladder, you want your barbarian slaves and engineering hammers. ”

Wu Lihai asked, "When attacking the city, will your army be at the forefront?"

The one-armed man chuckled: "Those things are already dead people, wouldn't it be better if they were used to pave a flat avenue for General Wu's people?"

"Let me think about it. General Wu still hesitated.

The one-armed man looked contemptuous. "There is no time, the current war is not something you and I can control, as far as I know, the Heavenly Sword Sect and the Lixian Sect in the Four Noble Paths have sent a young line down the mountain to practice, and the destination of the experience is Huarong City, two thousand immortal cultivators above the third realm will change the pattern of this war, we can't wait for the army to converge, but to support the army after taking Ancheng. ”

The Iron Ring General was shocked by the news, and immediately suppressed the horror and made a quick decision. "I see. ”

The corners of the one-armed young man's mouth rose to reveal a warm smile.

It was a smile from the heart, but in Wu Lihai's eyes, it was a smile that a child would only show when he was about to crush the ant colony in the aisle.

"General, we'll see you tomorrow. The one-armed young man got up and left, followed by a man and a woman standing behind him.

A man and a woman did not speak from beginning to end, but the eyes that looked at the one-armed young man always showed something strange inadvertently.

Walking out of the big tent, the one-armed young man said to the two behind him. "Wuyue, Tu Yang, you don't have to follow me. ”

The short man's name was Utsuki, and his small eyes looked at the one-armed young man and said his name. "Jian Yusheng, it was the hall master who sent us to follow you. ”

"Never leave the left and right. The tall woman named Tu Yang echoed.

The one-armed man was Jian Yusheng, who left the Sword Clan with the Lord of the Blood God Temple, and he appeared here for some reason.

Jian Yusheng sighed. "I know that she has sent you to spy on me, but it depends on the timing to perform your duties, and I have warned you not to come with me, or I will really kill you without carelessness. ”

"What are you talking about!!" the strong girl Tu Yang was about to attack when she heard this.

The short man named Wuyue grabbed her and shook his head slightly.

Jian Yusheng sneered. "I warned you, your duty is to keep me safe, but who will protect your life?"

Tu Yang watched Jian Yusheng leave, and said angrily: "He dares to be so crazy with us as a person who has just entered the second realm, I really want to kill him! ”

Wu Yue touched her chin and persuaded Tu Yang, who was furious, to be beside her. "I know beauty, don't be angry, Jian Yusheng is a bloody exercise, and he can't be a hard match with him, we just need to truthfully report his recent whereabouts to the hall master, let's go out and walk around at will, my brother will let you extinguish your anger." ”
