Chapter 781: Heavy casualties
Lu Li waved his hand and asked Ying Yu to go around to investigate to see if there were any enemies in ambush, and he asked, "What is the situation in Youzhou now?"
"Retreat!"
A Feng slave replied: "I have returned to Zhongzhou more than a month ago, don't the great masters know?"
"Withdrawn?"
Lu Li was slightly stunned, since the four major families had made a move, the Wasteland didn't take down or kill him, so they retreated? Could it be that Xing Mu was powerful?
He asked, "Why did the four major families withdraw their troops? Do you know what the situation is in Zhongzhou?"
"I don't know..."
Feng Nu shook his head and said, "My status is not high, and these are estimated to be only known to the upper echelons of the empire. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info I only know that the Holy Maiden took people to Zhongzhou, and the current empire is ruled by Lord Tugu. ā
"What about the casualties in Yunzhou Youzhou?" Although he knew that it was very miserable, Lu Li couldn't help but ask.
"Heavy casualties!"
Feng Nu sighed in a deep voice: "Many big families in Yunzhou have almost been wiped out, and the immortal realm of the empire has at least seventy percent of the casualties. The emperor-level general and Lord Mengshen died together, the warriors died at least 50 million, and the civilians were implicated and guarded by 50 or 60 million. ā
"That's hundreds of millions!"
Lu Li clenched his fists, gritted his teeth and said, "This group of brutes, even if you kill martial artists, you can kill so many civilians? ā
After pondering for a moment, Lu Li asked again: "Can you teleport to Zhongzhou from Youzhou now?"
"Can't!"
Feng Nu shook his head and said: "The teleportation array here has been destroyed, and it can only be teleported from Yunxiang City to Jiuyou Island, and then to Wanshui City, and the Holy Maiden is from that side." ā
"Well, okay, don't spread the word about me coming here!"
Lu Li nodded, and the Stygian Feather outside rushed in like a ghost, and said, "Everything is normal in the city, and there are no scouts from the four major families. ā
"Let's go!"
Lu Li used the bone shrinking technique to turn into another person, and then took the Stygian Feather in and returned to the passage to the wasteland, from where he teleported to Yunzhou, and teleported all the way to Yunxiang City.
The army of the four major families really retreated, and they didn't meet anyone from the four major families all the way to teleport, and it was very convenient for Lu Li to teleport with the token of the Yunwu Empire.
Along the way, many cities have traces of great battles, and blood is still everywhere over them. There are even new graves on the hills outside the city, which are dense and shocking at a glance.
Lu Li's face had been gloomy, and when he arrived at Yunxiang City, he found that the entire city had been destroyed. The teleportation array was still newly repaired, and there were few people left in the city, except for a few thousand sergeants stationed nearby.
Lu Li still didn't reveal his identity, but just took out the token and asked the soldiers in the city to open the teleportation array, and he went directly to Jiuyou Island.
Jiuyou Island is very quiet, this is the territory of a seven-rank clan Wei family under the Big Buddha Temple, and Lu Li was ambushed here last time.
Lu Li's mind swept and found a few acquaintances, the new island owner had seen it last time, Lu Li thought for a while and said to a Wei family commander beside him: "Please go and report it, I am the general of the Yunwu Empire, and I ask to meet the island master." ā
Lu Li handed over the token, and the commander quickly went to tell him, and soon came over and took Lu Li into the castle. After Lu Li entered, he saw a middle-aged man with a goat face, Lu Li didn't salute but nodded slightly, unless the Wei family patriarch, the rest of the people were not qualified to let him salute.
Lu Li's face was very unfamiliar, the island owner glanced at it a few times, and found that Lu Li's combat power at the peak of the Junhou Realm, and he also claimed to be the general of the Yunwu Empire, the island owner arched his hand and said: "In Xia Weitian, who is Your Excellency?"
"Land Blood!"
Lu Li casually reported a name and said, "I am Lu Li's brother, Lord Wei Island, I want to ask you if you know the whereabouts of the Yunwu Empire's holy daughter Lu Ling at this moment?"
Lu Li's purpose in staying here was to find out the whereabouts of the antelope. After knowing where it was, I immediately went to the rescue.
"Lu Xue, Lu Li's brother?" Wei Tian frowned slightly, judging from the information he knew, Lu Li didn't have a brother named Lu Xue.
He pondered for a moment and said, "Miss Lu brought someone to Jiuyou Island a month ago, and then went to Zhongzhou. Where exactly I went, I haven't received any news yet, my status in the Wei family is not high, and my knowledge is limited. ā
Whether what Wei Tian said was true or false, Lu Li didn't know, he didn't want to reveal his identity, and continued to ask: "Then I want to know one thing, why did the four major families withdraw from the Northern Desert of Yunzhou Youzhou? Is it the Demon Killing Palace's interference?"
"You don't even know that?"
Wei Tian was a little suspicious of Lu Li's identity, thought for a while and said: "The retreat of the four major families is our Great Buddha Temple, Linglong Pavilion, Heaven and Earth Mound, Ask Immortal Palace, and Chiyue Zhai jointly issued a notice, and they just retreated." ā
"Linglong Pavilion?"
Lu Li's eyes were full of astonishment, Linglong Pavilion actually joined forces? Didn't Jiang Tianshun and Jiang Wuwu want him to die early? How could they help him?
Wei Tian paused for a moment and continued: "The twelve royal families of Zhongzhou have agreed not to invade the other eight states. The four major families not only invaded Youzhou in the Northern Desert Yunzhou, but also involved countless civilians, and the other eight royal families should have united to crusade. It's just that there are some big clans who are friendly with the four major families, and they don't speak out or unite, so we issued a notice to force the four major families to withdraw their troops. ā
"Well, I'm going to thank the Great Buddha Temple this time. ā
Some doubts in Lu Li's mind were solved, it seemed that the four major families took down Lu Feixue, Bai Xia, Shuangyan, Lady Yeru and others, just because they expected that the rest of the royal family would interfere. Only then did he take the hostage and force him to save people and send him to death.
Lu Li threw out the biggest doubt in his heart: "Lord Wei Island, the Lord of the Demon Killing Hall has clearly said that he will protect Lu Li for ten years. Now that ten years have not yet arrived, the four major forces have sent troops, and the Lord of Xing Hall is not angry?"
"I don't know!"
Wei Tian shook his head and said, "The matter of the Demon Slaying Hall is a top secret, if you want to ask, go and ask my family patriarch." ā
"Okay, thank you Lord Weidao!"
Seeing that he couldn't ask anything, Lu Li arched his hand and strode out. There's no point in asking too much now, so let's go find Lu Ling and the others first.
He walked out of the Nine Shadows Island, threw out a large bag of purple crystal, and asked the sergeant to open the teleportation array, and a white light flashed and he disappeared into the teleportation array.
I don't know how long it took, but Lu Li finally felt like he had landed. Arriving at Wanshui City, he did not continue to teleport, but went straight to the City Lord's Mansion in Wanshui City.
Wanshui City is one of the four major cities under the Wei family, and the city lord here is definitely the high-level of the Wei family. Even if you don't know where the antelope is, at least you know about the recent events in Zhongzhou. As long as you can understand the recent military situation, you can roughly locate the location of Lu Ling, Bai Qiuxue and others.
After taking out the token and reporting it layer by layer, it was only after three incense sticks that Lu Li was brought into a large castle in the City Lord's Mansion.
"Wei Ziang?"
Lu Li was stunned when he entered, the city lord of this Ten Thousand Waters City was actually Wei Ziang, the elder of the Wei family who had a relationship with him on Jiuyou Island.
Lu Li blurted out Wei Ziang's name, which made the latter a little surprised, he glanced at it a few times, his eyes flickered for a moment and asked, "Are you... Lu Gongzi?"
Lu Li's body squirmed, changed back to his original appearance, and arched his hand: "Master Wei, long time no see." (To be continued.) )
