Dongzhou, just two months after Zhongzhou entered the peace talks, Dongzhou fell into a bitter battle, it is also Yi Meier's previous strategic mistake, in order to alleviate the situation of Haoyang Sect, she hunted and killed a sixth-order high-grade Kui Niu Clan Demon King, which triggered a backlash from the Kui Niu Clan, buried a big hole for the current situation, and almost killed herself.

The rest of the demon clans in various places still need time to mobilize, at least half a month to a month before the vanguard can be mobilized, and the Kui Niu clan does not need to, they have already mobilized five or six billion people and pushed to the vicinity of the first line of defense in Dongzhou.

And the first line of defense has long existed in name only, and it was shattered without persistence for half a day, and three days later, the army of the Kui Niu clan pushed to the front line of Minghuang Academy, and the five major academies and the forces of Haoyang Sect ceased war to jointly deal with the demon clan.

The five major academies mobilized millions of reinforcements, and they were able to hold on to this line of defense, but with the rest of the supreme demon clans in Dongzhou sending troops, when the demon clan's army reached two billion, everyone was desperate.

The last time the Kui Niu clan mobilized more than a billion demon clans to attack, but Dongzhou had the entire immortal cultivation world as a backing, and the supreme-level demon kings did not dare to fight, but now there is no such containment, and the demon clan has several times more demon kings from the sixth to the eighth order, and the high-level combat power has suppressed the human race, and the entire Dongzhou human race is in absolute weakness.

Sanssouci Sect, Nie Xinghua found Zhang Baoyun, at the beginning, Zhang Baoyun and Qin Yue each led their men and horses to retreat from the barbarian front, Zhang Baoyun entered Sanssouci Sect, and Qin Yue entered Minghuang Academy.

"Zhang Laozu, the follow-up army of Dongzhou has entered the front line of the original wilderness, this time it is led by the Baboon Supreme, a total of more than a billion demon clans, it will take at most four days to reach the battlefield, Dongzhou can't hold on, our worry-free sect is ready to withdraw"

"Nie Daoyou, why is this so, you and I have been friends for hundreds of years, and you abandoned us like this?"

Zhang Baoyun showed a sad look, although Nie Xinghua's cultivation was much lower than him, but he didn't dare to stand up, because he already knew that behind the Sanssouci Sect was the Wuguo Heavenly Saint Sect, Nie Xinghua was Lin Xiao's henchman, and the Sanssouci Sect was originally a direct branch of the Heavenly Sage Sect.

Now the situation in Dongzhou is worrying, whether it is the five major academies or the Haoyang Sect, they are in urgent need of foreign aid, if the millions of troops in Nanzhou in the Central Continent are willing to come to Dongzhou, they may be able to resist one or two.

"This is not abandonment, but a strategic shift, according to the meaning of our master, the war with the demon clan is long, don't care about the gains and losses of a city and a pool, save and admit the loss of land, people and land are saved, people and land are lost, people and land are lost, Zhang Laozu, you should know this truth"

"I know, but Haoyang Sect, hey..."

Zhang Baoyun sighed, at this time he already had the feeling of a lost dog in his heart, he was originally a disciple of Shui Yuanmen, and then did not follow Shui Yuanmen to perish, but turned to Emperor Hao's family, and then came to Dongzhou, at this time the foundation of Dongzhou was about to fall again, and he didn't know where to go next.

"Ancestor Zhang, I have already informed Sect Master Yi of this news, presumably there will be news soon, early tomorrow morning, the army of Nanzhou will come to respond, if you want, then let's go together, this is the last chance, the East Sea Demon Clan has made a comeback, occupying most of the sea area of the East China Sea, we don't have a teleportation array, even if there is, the cost is too high, if we lose this opportunity, there will be no one to escort it"

Nie Xinghua replied, the Nanzhou army has gathered all the flying boats this time, a total of more than three thousand, which can take away more than a million people and horses at a time, and at the same time there are a large number of high-level monks to escort them, if this opportunity is lost, then there may be no chance to evacuate again.

"I know, Nie Daoyou, can you agree to a request from Zhang?"

"Zhang Laozu, please say"

"Take the head of my family away, Haoyang Sect has no Zhang Baoyun, nothing happens, but without Yi Meier, Haoyang Sect will be finished"

"I can't guarantee it, I can only say that as much as possible, if Sect Master Yi wants, we can take her"

Nie Xinghua said, whether to go or not, it depends on Yi Mei'er's meaning, Nie Xinghua can't force it, if Yi Mei'er is unwilling, then no one will move.

Just when Nie Xinghua informed Zhang Baoyun, the envoys of the Sanssouci Sect appeared in the Five Academies and the Haoyang Sect, if the Haoyang Sect wanted to evacuate, it had to pass through the territory of the Five Academies, so it had to be agreed by them.

In the pre-war camp of the five major colleges, Lin Yaohui was holding Lin Xiao's handwritten book in his hand, his face was gloomy, and the rest of the high-level officials also had extremely bad faces.

"You've all read the letter, let's say, what do you think?"

"Dean Lin, I don't think I can let Yi Mei'er go"

"Reason"

"There are two reasons, first, Dongzhou's strength is insufficient, there are still millions of people in Haoyang Sect and Minghuang Academy and other major forces, if they leave, our Dongzhou's strength will be even more insufficient, and the situation may deteriorate directly.

The second point is that this incident was provoked by Yi Mei'er, it was she who killed the demon king of the Kui Niu clan, she caused trouble, patted her ass and left, we stayed to settle it for her, there is no such reason"

"You're right, but do you know the consequences of refusing this?"

Lin Yaohui nodded, he knew these truths, but once the five major academies refused, the consequences would be very disastrous, and now the negotiations on Zhongzhou have come to an end, but all the conditions have not been imposed on Dongzhou, precisely because they are now defending against demon beasts.

Lin Xiao had already warned him that if the five academies dared to refuse, then the two million remaining monks of the five academies who supported the Immortal Alliance would not be able to return to Dongzhou, and Lin Xiao did not mind setting off a civil war again, defeating the army of the five academies, and receiving the Haoyang Sect, and in the follow-up support, Nanzhou would not give any benefits, and would drag it back, such as Wanghai City, Lin Xiao would persuade Penglai to refuse to return it, Lin Xiao firmly believed that his voice in the Five Continents Alliance was heavier than that of the five academies.

On the contrary, if the five academies agreed, Lin Xiao could advise the Five Continents Alliance to revoke most of the punishments imposed on the five academies, and in the follow-up war, if Nanzhou still had the strength to spare, he could help and so on.

In short, Lin Xiao gave an extremely extreme condition for the five colleges to choose, agree or refuse, and the situation of the five colleges will change extremely.

"Dean Lin, let's agree, but we can't say nothing, we have to let them give some conditions."

"What do you want to say?"

"Dean Lin, in this war, we are more than lucky in Dongzhou, and we have no bottom in our hearts, so we have to leave a little seed for the five colleges."

"Vice Dean Wei, wouldn't this be too pessimistic?"

"Pessimistic, hehe, if the situation is not good, do you think that the Sanssouci Sect can be exposed, can it retreat, who would have thought that Lin Xiao's hand is so long, it was laid out in Dongzhou hundreds of years ago, if it wasn't for this demon clan invasion, we didn't know if we were sold"

Wei Lin sneered, Sanssouci Sect turned out to be Lin Xiao's people, no one expected this, and everyone in the five major academies was also afraid.

They know how powerful Lin Xiao's scheming conspiracy is, and they also know how strong the Heavenly Saint Sect is, if it weren't for this exposure, in a few hundred years, would there still be a foothold for the five major academies in Dongzhou?

"That's it, agreed, the five major academies, each of which leaves five hundred student seeds, plus twenty teachers, and vassals under their command, will divide the quota of a thousand people according to their strength, a total of less than four thousand people, tell the messenger of the Sanssouci Sect, if you agree to this condition, you can let the Haoyang Sect pass through our defense line, we can send someone to accept their defense line, if you don't agree, then the net will be broken."

"Yes, Dean Lin"

Lin Yaohui made a decision, although they could retreat north and enter Zhongzhou from the north, but now that the East China Sea is not safe, they still feel that this opportunity is better.

In the front camp of Minghuang Academy, Yi Meier summoned a high-level cadre and announced Lin Xiao's letter in public.

"Qin Yue, tell me what you think"

"Back to the sect master, I think we should withdraw, the main army of the demon clan will arrive in four days, with our current men and horses, we can't hold it, so if it dies here, it's better to save our strength, as long as we live, we will be able to fight back sooner or later"

"Dean He, what about you?"

"Minghuang College is my home, I have lived for 1,500 years, I was born here, I grew up here, I got married and had children here, I taught students here, I don't want to leave"

"Dean He, what Qin Yue said is very reasonable, we are just a strategic shift, avoid the limelight, we will come back"

"I know, but as the dean, I can't keep my students, I can't keep the mortals who support us, this is our dereliction of duty, although our Minghuang Academy is separated from the five major academies, but our thoughts are in the same line, few of our Dongzhou monks are in order to become immortals, we are only for the human race..."

Dean He said slowly, the trend of thought of the monks of Dongzhou is relatively special in the world of cultivating immortals, although their Minghuang Academy is out of the control of the five major academies, but the trend of thought has not changed, they are still the trend of thought of asking for the lives of the people, the monks are supported by hundreds of millions of mortals, then they must be responsible for the mortals, they can't afford to be responsible, that is their dereliction of duty, and if they escape, they can't pass their own level, so they are willing to die on the battlefield.

"Everyone has their own aspirations, Dean He, I can't stop you, but I hope that you are willing to hand over some juniors to us, we will take them, and I can swear, I will not annex them, but leave a seed for you, and when they grow, I will let them come back, inherit your will, and carry forward the Minghuang Academy"

"Sect Master Yi does things above board, I don't need to swear it, I believe in you, I will give you some people, and some inheritance treasures, I hope the sect master will treat them well"

Dean He nodded, Yi Mei'er was very thoughtful by Lin Xiao, and she rarely used conspiracy and trickery to do things, but she was a bright and upright conspiracy, and she would do what she said, so her reputation on Dongzhou's side was excellent.

Calculating Yu Huanhuan is one of the very few conspiracy tricks of Yi Meier, but this time it also brought extremely serious losses to Yi Meier, almost pit herself to death, Yi Meier blamed herself very much in her heart, and at the same time, she firmly believed in Lin Xiao's concept, don't conspire, be above board.

It is no problem for the Haoyang Sect to evacuate, and the rest of the strength is willing to follow, Yi Meier made statistics one by one, and then transferred the men and horses of these forces away from the front line, put more reserves on top, and at the same time let the people and horses of the five major academies be stationed to stabilize the battle line and buy more time for the back front.
