Xuancheng and Zhongcheng, the two largest cities on the Hanhai Demon Spirit Continent, were later occupied by the opposing Qi State and the Feng State respectively, Tian Xuan and Bu Qingyun, these two generals who were once in the reign of the Emperor of the Shadow Dynasty, were excellent generals who could take charge on their own. Under the initial order of the God Emperor, each of them led 100,000 elite troops from the Nine Domains to the Hanhai Demon Spirit Continent, which was not very prosperous at that time, to quell the rebellion. After that, Emperor Kami had the two of them stationed in Xuancheng and Chungseong, respectively.

After being stationed in the army for several years, Tian Xuan and Bu Qingyun gradually expanded the power under their command, and at that time they did not have the idea of betraying the Yu Dynasty, but only to control the situation more conveniently, and to prevent the situation of deliberate rebellion. Because of this, the two generals, Tian Xuan and Bu Qingyun, entrusted the officials from the Nine Domains with important responsibilities and let them hold important positions, such as local governors.

It's just that these two generals, who used to have a very good relationship, gradually developed some irreconcilable contradictions because of their respective territories, as well as the people under their rule, the materials transported from the Nine Domains, and so on. Because of their respective territories and population and materials, the forces under the governance of the two gradually clashed, but due to the past situation, the two did not completely tear their faces.

In the end, the straw that crushed this fragile relationship was the news of the fall of the Youyuan Dynasty and the sinking of the Shenghai in the Nine Domains. At that time, Tian Xuan and Bu Qingyun, who had the same status and basically the same official position, naturally declared themselves to be the orthodox inheritors of the Youtian Dynasty under the premise that the God Emperor did not have any edicts. In order to maintain his own territory and dominance, he waged a protracted battle with the other party.

This battle between the state of Qi and the feudal state lasted for nearly ten years, and finally Tian Xuan and Bu Qingyun finally shook hands and made peace, with the Xuanling River running through the entire Hanhai Demon Spirit Continent as the boundary, they respectively claimed to be the orthodoxy of the Youchao inheritance, established the Qi State and the Feng State, and governed the people and the army in the territory respectively. Because at that time, there were quite a few officials under the command of the two of them who came from the Nine Domains to help them educate the reckless and backward people on the Hanhai Demon Spirit Continent, so after they established their respective countries, these officials who had come to the Hanhai Demon Spirit Continent from the Nine Regions became the first batch of courtiers.

Although they shook hands for the time being, in fact, the Qi State and the Feng State have been fighting each other for more than 300 years, whether it is openly mobilizing troops to attack each other, or secretly fighting for economic dominance with the help of currency and silver tickets, or silk brocade horses, which can trade with each other. For more than 300 years, the Qi State has had many moments of prosperity in its own country, but if you want to destroy each other, because the hard power is almost the same, although the two sides are eager to destroy each other, this is just an unrealistic idea.

Today, the situation of the confrontation between the Qi countries has become a little more delicate. After the battle on the Xuanling Continent, the Qi State helped the monarch of the leaving country, Chen Xinyu, the empress of Shengde, defeated Chen Xuan, the head of the Chen family of the royal family, who was supported by the feudal state, and successfully obtained the support of the leaving country. At present, under the command of the Empress of Shengde, Chen Xinyu, can dispatch at least 100,000 fresh troops to help the Qi State. And within the feudal country, the eldest daughter of Guangwujun, the former monarch of the feudal country, Princess Bu Luan of Qingxuan, and the biological daughter of the Holy Emperor Zheng Junchao, Princess Liuli Bu Yuehan, together formed a force to resist the rule of the Holy Emperor, the white-clothed goddess, and the three forces reached a coalition and prepared to fight the feudal country together.

In an instant, the original advantageous situation of the feudal country was destroyed by the unexpected appearance of the Xuanling Continent and the departure of the country where the military strength above was relatively strong. Saint Emperor Zheng Junchao had no choice but to face the Qi army that was already ready to assemble, he could only listen to the instigation of the two Ming Yi envoys, and chose to take a risk, relying on his own ability, to go to the Qi Kingdom to steal half of the key that sealed the eternal lock on the Sinking Leaf Demon Spirit Continent.

After finding this half of the key, under the urging of the two Ming Yi envoys, the Holy Emperor Zheng Junchao finally cast a magic, using the Xuanling River as a mirror, temporarily blocking the water flow of the entire middle section, releasing the power into the Xuanling River, and successfully opening the Xuanling River, buried the seal that can lead to the Sinking Leaf Demon Spirit Continent - the Eternal Lock.

The appearance of the Dark Legion helped the Sealing State reverse the situation, and even took advantage of the incomplete opportunity of the Qi State, the Dark Legion almost wiped out the entire Qi Kingdom. Although the Saint Emperor Zheng Junchao's original purpose was achieved, he later discovered that the Dark Evil God did not just want to help him defeat the Qi Kingdom and unify the Hanhai Demon Spirit Continent, he also had his own deeper purpose.

Although the Dark Evil God himself has temporarily left the Hanhai Demon Spirit Continent, and the Dark Legion has not made contact with the skill team of the Sealing War Society for the time being, Zheng Junchao knows very well in his heart that once the time is ripe, the Dark Evil God will inevitably use him as the carrier of his soul. However, he had no way to get rid of the control of the Dark Legion, and he was in a dilemma.

Zheng Junchao was still hesitating, he didn't know if he should decisively break off the relationship with the Dark Legion, the once decisive Saint Emperor Zheng Junchao was now shocked by the power of the Dark Evil God. As a high-level cultivator of the ninth-order sword soul, he even possessed a special soul transformation technique, and as a soul cultivator who was only over forty years old, Zheng Junchao's talent could already be said to be superb.

However, although the sect leader of the Sealing War Society, that is, the Holy Emperor Zheng Junchao, was still in a state of indecision, he still had some illusions about the dark evil god. But the people around him, the most obvious example is Zheng Junchao's wife, Bu Lian. Bu Lian knows better than anyone that if her husband continues to break ties with the dark evil god, sooner or later he will be controlled by the dark evil god, and this time may not be too long.

Taking advantage of this opportunity for the soul of the dark evil god to take the initiative to leave, Princess Rong Le Bu Lian repeatedly spoke to comfort her husband, hoping that he could recognize the current situation clearly and stop having illusions about the dark army. But the Holy Emperor Zheng Junchao didn't listen, he still had illusions about the Dark Legion, and felt that it was not impossible for him to just use the Dark Legion without being affected by the power of the Dark Evil God.

In desperation, Bu Lian, who actually had no power, could only choose to carry out his actions secretly, whether it was in the original feudal country, or in the later feudal war meeting, the prestige of Princess Rong Le Bu Lian was very high. Especially when the Holy Emperor was controlled by the Dark Evil God and led the army to Huicheng to support the Dark Legion, all matters inside and outside the feudal realm were handled by Princess Rong Lechang.

During this period of power, not only did the civil and military officials in the court respect her very much, but she even won the support of many local officials. With the help of the power of these local officials, in the local cities and villages that Zheng Junchao has not yet taken into account, Bu Lian already has her own power.

She didn't want to overthrow her husband, but she wanted to find a way to prevent him from going to war with Qi again, or to support the Dark Legion. These two things are not allowed by Princess Rong Le's Bu Lian. It took a lot of effort for her to get in touch with Qi Guo. If Zheng Junchao had to lead the army to help the Dark Legion attack the Qi State at this time, Bu Lian would not stand idly by.

The situation within the feudal kingdom is also not optimistic, the coalition forces of the Liguo and the white-clothed celestial girl forces have controlled a large area of land in the northern border of the feudal kingdom, and their power has even extended to Yicheng, a mountain city near Zhongcheng. Since Bu Yuehan had not returned at this time, Princess Bu Luan, who had originally stayed in Shengcheng, had to go south to Yicheng, and she was still a little afraid that the power of the white-clothed heavenly girl would be swallowed by Kong Hong.

At present, the number of garrisons inside and outside Yicheng has exceeded 50,000, and the food reserves in the city are not enough to support these 50,000 troops to survive this winter. However, she also knew that the white-clothed Heavenly Maiden's own base was not stable, and it was not easy to reoccupy Lingcheng and Shengcheng in the north, but it was impossible to cultivate food in a large area near these two cities, and it was too late.

So, she thought of another way, she was going to lead the army to attack the grain town outside Zhongcheng, and seize the grain from there for her own use. Kong Hong once heard Bu Yuehan say that the grain reserves in Zhongcheng are very abundant, which is mainly due to the towns near Zhongcheng and adjacent to the Xuanling River, which are the richest and most prosperous places in the entire feudal country.

Princess Qingxuan Buluan tried her best to stop Kong Hongdi's action, she said that now the Dark Legion has no sign of mobilizing the army of the Sealing War Society, and there are still tens of thousands of elite soldiers inside and outside the Sealing Battle Society, once they get close to the Loyal City, they will inevitably find their traces, and maybe they will be surrounded and annihilated. It may not be a wise choice to continue to stay in Yicheng now, and one day Bao Qi will be attacked by the army of the Sealing War Society. Instead of retreating hastily at the wrong time, it is better to take the initiative to return to the north now, so that it is more convenient to obtain food support from the Xuanling Continent.

Bu Luan's words made Kong Hong fall into a dilemma, how could she not know that food must be the most important thing for the stability of the army, and now that the food reserves in the city are insufficient, it is completely unrealistic to survive this winter. However, she was worried that once she left Yicheng, she would not be able to pose an effective threat to the Sealed War, and it was very likely that the Sealed War would ignore them for the time being and lead the army to assist the Dark Legion in attacking the Qi Kingdom.

The Qi State had already borne the heaviest pressure, and was forced into a situation where they were trapped in one place by the Dark Legion, if they retreated north, would the Qi State ......

"I know you're worried, that's like this," Bu Luan took the initiative to persuade as if he had insight into Kong Hong's thoughts, "Just ask Her Majesty Empress Shengde to send an army to feign crossing the Shenghai Sea and make a posture of attacking Xuancheng." In this way, it may be possible to attract the troops of the Dark Legion to support them in the north. Besides, if we retreat to Shengcheng, we can also directly cross the Xuanling River and attack Xuancheng, attracting the army of the Dark Legion to the north in disguise, which can also help Qi share the pressure given by the Dark Legion. ”

"I don't know what we're in this city, but ......"
