This time, the Lingnan army attacked Yunzhou extremely suddenly.

Although the federation had already detected some signs, everyone thought at that time that the target of the Song Clan's Northern Expedition must be the long-standing grudge of Guizhou, and Yunzhou, which has a lot of contacts.

As a result, the Yanshan County in the southeast of Yunzhou lasted less than ten days before it was taken by the Lingnan army.

When Wan Guiliu led the army to arrive, he could only lament against the tall walls of Yanshan City.

The Yunzhou army, which could not enter the city, camped on the plain northwest of Yanshan City.

The generals of the unified army are not ignorant of the role of geographical advantages, but there are more than one million people before and after, and only this plain can be accommodated.

In the south of the Yunzhou military camp, to the west of Yanshan City, there is a small forest.

At night, the grove seems to be asleep, and even the sound of birds and insects is rarely heard.

In the middle of the woods was a clearing, and at this moment stood a tall man in black, carefully wiping the long knife in his hand by the hazy moonlight.

Sen Han's sword light reflected off the man's face, reflecting the angular face in a flickering light and dark.

The black-clothed man's fingers crossed the surface of the knife, his fingertips touched the seven large and small gaps on the blade, and only after half a sound did he sigh softly and muttered to himself.

"Before stepping into the martial spirit, it is still too reluctant to completely restore the real weapon."

"But if you don't repair the real artifact well, the success rate of condensing the martial soul will be much lower."

"Brother Chen has been in Tiannan for nearly three hundred years, and he has seen a lot of things, why don't you help me come up with ideas?"

As the words of the man in black fell, an old figure gradually emerged from the air.

"The old man has lived for three hundred years, but he hasn't even been able to step into the peak of the grandmaster, where is he qualified to put a beak martial soul."

The person who appeared in front of the man in black was the thin old man in the Yunzhou military camp before.

"If it weren't for the competition with Wanguiliu for the Erhai Secret Realm back then, and the foundation was injured in the first battle, I'm afraid that you, Chen Yonghua, would have become a peak grandmaster."

The man in black put down the long knife in his hand and looked up at the thin old man, and in his bright eyes, there was a knife light that appeared and disappeared from time to time.

At this moment, the old man standing opposite the man in black is Chen Yonghua, the ancestor of the Yuxi Chen family, the first family in Yunzhou!

Yuxi Chen is notoriously arrogant and domineering in Yunzhou, but Chen Yonghua himself has always been low-key, compared to Huang Tianyuan and Yan Yunchen, who often appear in front of people, this old man may not show his face once in ten years.

However, Chen Yonghua's strength is not bad, among the six grandmasters in Yunzhou, second only to Wanguiliu and Xue Yiren, if it weren't for some problems of his own, I am afraid that he would have stepped into the peak of the grandmaster.

However, the peak of the grandmaster seems to be just a small bottleneck, but the front and back are completely two concepts.

The upper limit of the longevity of an ordinary grandmaster is three hundred years old, and except for a very small number of elixirs, normal life-prolonging things cannot break this limit.

Although the longevity of the peak grandmaster is also three hundred years, the prototype of the martial soul can help the monk break the upper limit of longevity, relying on some elixirs and life extension secret techniques, it is common to live to be more than four hundred years old.

The most important thing is that after cultivating to reach the realm of a grandmaster, the bodies of most martial artists have been strengthened to a certain extent.

Unless the longevity is about to expire and the body can't lock the vitality, there is no problem that the bottleneck cannot be broken through because of too old age.

Although young people have a greater success rate in breaking through the realm, a grandmaster who is three or four hundred years old also has the same hope of breaking through the bottleneck.

Chen Yonghua didn't pay attention to the other party's provocation, and asked directly:

"The head of the Song family called the old man over this time, what is the matter?"

The black-clothed man with the knife in front of him was none other than Song Yuan, the contemporary head of the Song family.

He and Chen Yonghua should have been in the hostile camp, but they met in this grove in the middle of the night, which was really surprising.

"What is the situation of the Yunzhou Army now, didn't you send me a message before, and there is not much left of Yunzhou's grain and grass resources?"

Song Yuan was also a neat and neat person, and he didn't talk anymore, and directly asked him about the issues he was most concerned about.

Chen Yonghua's situation Song Yuan knows very well that if there is no big opportunity, he will have to sit in another ten years at most.

Without Chen Yonghua's Yuxi Chen family, the outcome is self-evident, even if he leaves some secret hands, he will definitely not be able to stop a large number of enemies.

This is also the key reason why the other party does not hesitate to take a huge risk, rather than harming his own interests, but also to assist the Song family to take Yunzhou.

After the Song clan entered Yunzhou, they would inevitably clean up the old forces in each county, and the enemies of the Chen clan would be easily eliminated.

Coupled with the dragon's skill, the Chen clan is not even more brilliant, at least it will not be completely decayed because of his death.

It was precisely for this reason that Song Yuan believed that the other party was not a spy, because unless the Federation was completely destroyed, even if other grandmasters spoke to protect each other, the Yuxi Chen clan would inevitably prosper and decline.

"The head of the Song family didn't come out until today, presumably because he discovered the Tiannan royal family's earthly listening technique."

"If it weren't for the Xiaoxiang County Lord who temporarily left the Yunzhou Army Camp, the old man wouldn't dare to come out to see the Song family master tonight."

The grove was quiet for a while, and Chen Yonghua replied helplessly.

The recent series of changes made him feel that the probability of Lingnan becoming the owner of Yunzhou was much smaller, but the Yuxi Chen family, who had already handed over the name of the vote, could only go one way to the dark.

Song Yuan's eyes condensed slightly, nodded and said:

"So the royal family is vigorously supporting Yunzhou? But now that they have officially started a war with Tianjianmen, where can they get so many resources to support Yunzhou? ”

Chen Yonghua shook his head and explained:

"Although the royal family came to help the lord of Xiaoxiang, the person who really contributed the resources was Wang Hong, the lord of Luxi City."

"Not only has he inherited the magic power of spatial teleportation, but he also has super-large storage equipment, and massive resources are constantly being sent to the front line."

Song Yuan was slightly stunned, then frowned and asked:

"Wang Hong? The immortal monk who killed the Fayana? You still haven't found out what he's going to do? ”

Song Yuan's personality is quite similar to his ancestors, with a sharp blade in his heart, he is arrogant, and he really doesn't think much of a young man like Wang Hong.

"The federation has put a lot of effort into it, but it only found out that the place where he first appeared was the Ten Thousand Demon Forest in the south of Yunzhou."

"The eastern part of the Ten Thousand Demon Forest is also bordered by Jiaozhou, and the Song family master should be very clear about the situation inside, and there is no way to investigate in depth." Chen Yonghua sighed slightly.

The appearance of Wang Hong is a huge variable for Yunzhou and even the Tiannan Kingdom.

Ever since he became the Lord of Luxi City last year, the Federation has begun to investigate his origins closely.

Later, with the provision of a large number of strategic materials by Luxi City and the destruction of the coalition forces of the three counties of Pugan, a series of events occurred, and the intensity of investigating Wang Hong's background rose again and again.

But no matter how much time and effort is spent, the initial point that is finally found is the Ten Thousand Demon Forest, and there is no further information.

During this period, Wang Hong's strength became stronger and stronger, and the Federation did not dare to make an excessive investigation, so until now, everyone could only default to his coming from overseas Xianshan.

As for the statement that he was born in the Langya Wang family, it has been rejected by many well-informed people.

After all, the stylistic differences between the two are so great that they are almost recognizable at a glance.

Song Yuan was silent for a moment and asked, "Wang Hong has only been in Yunzhou for two years, is he so repulsive to me, even if he spends a lot of resources to block me?" ”

With the in-depth development of the way of luck, in the past few hundred years, more and more people from overseas immortal mountains have been involved in the change of dynasty in Dongwu Continent.

In order to break through the bottleneck and get a new life, some of the old monsters who are about to die will even make heavy bets on the hidden dragons they value at any cost.

But today's Yunzhou is a plate of scattered sand, and there is not even a person who can be called a hidden dragon, in this case, Wang Hong wasted a lot of resources, is it crazy?

Chen Yonghua couldn't figure it out about this matter, so he had to shake his head and say:

"I don't know what he thinks, it stands to reason that the Immortal Dao Monk will not establish a dynasty by himself, otherwise the cause and effect will be implicated, and it will do more harm than good to future cultivation."

"Luxi City has no intention of expanding, otherwise with the help of this opportunity, Wang Hong can completely ask to dominate the western part of Yunzhou, and Li Shenyuan can't compete with him."

"I guess it was the Xiaoxiang County Lord who paid a certain price to make him willing to contract the wartime resource consumption of Yunzhou."

A lot of thoughts flashed through Song Yuan's mind, but in the end he chose the easiest way.

"Can you find a way to get him out alone?"

Chen Yonghua was stunned, and immediately understood what Song Yuan meant, and said with a little hesitation:

"I'm not very familiar with Wang Hong, I'm afraid I may not be able to make an appointment, and he has spatial powers, his whereabouts can't be mastered at all, and it is ...... difficult to rob and kill him."

Without waiting for Chen Yonghua to finish speaking, Song Yuan waved his hand and said:

"I know that this matter is very difficult, but Brother Chen, you have been operating in Yunzhou for more than two hundred years, and you will definitely be able to come up with a way."

"I won't say more, as long as you do this, my son Song Hang will also reach the age when it is time to get married, and he can marry the woman of your Yuxi Chen family."

Song Hang is the youngest of Song Yuan's four children, and the most talented one, and he also has great luck, and everything has gone smoothly since he was born.

At the age of twenty, he stepped into the middle of the congenital stage, and when he went out for a turn, he picked up the best magic weapon.

A passing Yuanying monk helped him measure his fate, saying that this son was the reincarnation of the ancient Rui Beast Seven Treasure Koi, and his luck was earth-shattering, and he wanted to accept him as a closed disciple on the spot and bring it back to the overseas immortal mountain to train well.

Song Yuan refused without hesitation after hearing about it, this kind of Qilin'er was the best heir of the Song family, how could he let him go to the overseas Immortal Mountain to cultivate?

Therefore, Song Yuan's promise to let Song Hang marry a woman from the Chen family in Yuxi is definitely the biggest reassurance for Chen Yonghua, who is about to end his life.

In this way, even if he sits down in the future, the Chen family can also get the protection of the Song family, and Song Hang's shocking luck is very likely to help the Chen family get out of the trough and produce another strong grandmaster.

Therefore, Chen Yonghua no longer hesitated after hearing this promise, and immediately discussed with Song Yuan how to lure Wang Hong.

At the same time, Wang Hong, who had just delivered a new batch of military rations, was receiving another ancestor of the Yunzhou family.

"Brother Li came to me so late, is there something important?"

Wang Hong and Li Shenyuan sat opposite each other in the tent, drinking tea and chatting for a while, and then he asked about the purpose of the other party.

For Li Shenyuan, Wang Hong is really a little sorry.

When dealing with Guanzhen on the northern front before, the six-character proverb mantra not only seriously injured the great monk, but even Xue Yiren and Li Shenyuan, who were entangled beside him at the time, were also affected.

Xue Yiren was strong and had many means, and the injuries he suffered were not too serious, so he took some pills afterwards and recovered quickly.

And Li Shenyuan, who suffered from the fish in the pond, was smashed into the river on the spot.

Even if Huang Tianyuan reacted in time and immediately fished him up, his injuries still haven't fully recovered so far.

Li Shenyuan smiled and asked, "City Lord Wang, I heard that the outer periphery of Luxi City has begun to build new city walls again?" ”

Wang Hong nodded and said, "Yes, Luxi City now has a population of nearly 300,000, and it has to be expanded. ”

Now the eastern part of Yunzhou is in flames, and the western region is also busy.

The prosperity of Luxi City is not only famous in the eight states of Tiannan, but also in the surrounding countries.

So now, when they hear that it is going to be expanded, a large number of laborers are flocking to it, hoping to stay and work in the city after the construction of the city, as the first workers did.

Li Shenyuan was silent for a moment, sighed secretly, and then asked seriously:

"City Lord Wang, if the Li clan wants to move into Luxi City, I don't know if you welcome it?"

Before Wang Hong became the lord of Luxi City, the four counties in the western part of Yunzhou had always been divided and ruled by the Li clan and the Wanhuan Sect.

Later, Li Shenyuan stepped into the realm of the grandmaster, and the Ten Thousand Illusions Sect had begun to gradually retreat.

Seeing that the Li clan was about to become the head of the west, Wang Hong was born at this time and quickly built a famous Luxi City.

Although Wang Hong didn't plan to become a speaker in the west, with such a big Buddha sitting there, no matter how unhappy the Li family was, they could only cancel the original plan.

The Li family, who suffered from this unwarranted disaster, naturally did not have a good impression of Luxi City.

Although they didn't make it difficult, Li Gan and Li Ning, who originally had some friendship with Wang Hong, broke off contact because of this.

However, as the situation in the Southern Regions became more and more chaotic, Li Shenyuan, who had seen Wang Hong's move, couldn't help but have some more thoughts in his heart.

In addition, after the news of Baicao Valley's relocation to Luxi City spread, the Canglin Li clan also had to consider their own situation.

In addition, Wang Hong's attitude towards the forces under his rule is completely supportive, and as long as he abides by the rules he has set, there will be no fear or suppression.

Therefore, after fighting with Guizhou and Lingnan one after another, Li Shenyuan, who felt more and more that his strength was insufficient, finally made up his mind to find Wang Hong for a showdown and talk about hugging his thighs.

Wang Hong, who had a headache because of the lack of talents, felt as if pie had fallen from the sky, and immediately laughed and said.

"Brother Li is willing to come to Luxi City, Wang should be a sweeper to greet him, and all the treatment will definitely satisfy Brother Li."

At this moment, Wang Hong did not promise specific treatment, and Li Shenyuan was not an impatient person, so he nodded and said:

"The city lord's atmosphere is well known to the world, but I still have one more thing I hope the city lord can agree to."

Wang Hong smiled and said, "Brother Li, although he said, what Wang can do will never shirk. ”

Before the big companies of Earth Star poached people, they all allowed the other party to put forward conditions, not to mention a strong grandmaster like Li Shenyuan, if he really didn't ask for anything at all, Wang Hong would be suspicious.
