Chapter 696: Turning to Nanming

"In exchange for the lives of more than a million people, it seems that this demon lord not only treats her life as a mustard, but even his own life is not worth mentioning at all." I sighed.

"Let's go." Wei Junyao said. "Go to Nanming early, be safe early."

Under the leadership of the Snow Wolf Cavalry Battalion, hundreds of thousands of troops began to march in the ice and snow.

Many of them were coming to the southwestern frontier for the first time.

I really can't figure out why the entire Yellow River Ancient Road is shining with the sun and the high temperature is raging at this time, only this one is extremely cold, as if I have come to another world.

"This place has always been like this?" Shui Er asked curiously.

Wei Junyao shook his head. "In the past hundreds of years, the scenery in the southwest is no less than that of the Twelve Docks of Wushan, but I don't know that in addition to the situation above, it has become like this overnight."

"Could it be that something is happening here?" I asked.

"Haven't heard of it yet." Wei Junyao said. "When the southwest suddenly mutated, the four major forces of the ancient path had been exploring here for a long time, but they spent a lot of time and energy, and they found nothing after all."

"Are you trying to say that the Demon Lord wants to go southwest from the King of Youdu, maybe it has something to do with the mutation here back then?" Wei Junyao asked in surprise.

"It's just doubt." I said. "Otherwise, he lost more than one million troops, basically the whole army was wiped out, what does he want this southwest to do, unless this southwest means much more to him than the more than one million coalition troops, otherwise the unequal deal, even a child will not do it."

Wei Junyao nodded thoughtfully, and then she called Wu Meng.

"The Demon Lord has been stationed here for so long, hasn't he made any special moves?" She asked.

"I don't think so." Wu Meng said truthfully. "Even if there is, the Snow Wolf Cavalry Battalion has only been responsible for patrolling the Death Canyon, and we can't touch the higher content."

"Do you know where the Demon Lord's Chinese army tent was set up before." Wei Junyao asked.

"The Demon Lord has never appeared in the Southwest." Wu Meng said.

"Didn't show up?"

"Hmm." Wu Meng nodded solemnly. "The most you can see here are the generals of the three armies, the ghost baby began to be seen, and then disappeared, and the dragon king of the ghost gate disappeared with him, in short, all the core characters have not appeared again for a long time."

"And how was the order given?" Wei Junyao asked. "Is it directly ordered by the commander-in-chief of the three armed forces?"

"Yes." Wu Meng said. "All tasks and orders are uniformly issued by the commanders of the three armies to various places, and no one is allowed to talk or ask questions beyond the level, so for this side of the matter, I only know the part of Death Canyon."

Wei Junyao nodded, then turned his gaze to me and said, "The more the Demon Monarch doesn't show his head in this place, the more it proves that this place has what he wants. ”

"Hmm." I agree. "But fortunately, Nanming borders the southwest, and the Demon Lord has suffered this defeat, so it is impossible to recover in a short period of time, we just need to quickly settle down in Nanming, and it's not too late to find out."

"How many troops are left in Death Canyon now?" Wei Junyao asked.

"Including the soldiers of the Snow Wolf Cavalry Battalion, there are less than 100,000 in total." Wu Meng replied.

"Who is the current ruler of these 100,000 people?"

"Gu Huai." Wu Meng said. "He used to be the vanguard under the command of the Ghost Gate Dragon King, and after he came to the southwest to form an alliance with the Ghost Baby, he has always commanded the entire Death Valley defense, and as far as I know, this person has always been loyal to the Ghost Gate Dragon King, and I am afraid it will be difficult to deal with."

"I'm not going to deal with him." Wei Junyao smiled. "Just change the commander."

The army of Wu Mountain was struggling to advance towards the Death Canyon in the ice and snow, and after less than half a day's march, I saw that there were snow waves in the distance, and thousands of snow wolves, under the leadership of the wolf king, continued to rush towards us.

The appearance of the snow wolf pack caused a lot of panic in the military formation.

These snow wolves are covered in white hair, their eyes are scarlet like blood, and the murderous intent in the sky is full of them, even if it is wind and snow, they can't stop half a point.

There have already begun to be commanders of various generals, so that the subordinate soldiers are ready to fight with the snow wolf pack.

But when they saw the snow wolves approaching, and the majestic wolf king, who was running at the front of the team, suddenly whimpered and ran towards Wei Junyao, everyone opened their mouths wide.

"The Wolf King has come to meet us." Wei Junyao squatted down with a smile and stroked the wolf king's head with his hand.

Shui'er was also very happy.

Running to the wolf king's side, his hand constantly running the soft white hair on the wolf's back.

"It's a pity that Nanming is not suitable for this kind of snow wolf to survive, otherwise it will be a force to be reckoned with if they can be brought to Nanming." Sleepless Hou said.

"yes." Shui'er said as she touched it. "What's even more a pity is that this wolf king can't speak, if he can, what is hidden in this southwest, how can it escape their eyes."

As soon as Shui'er's voice came out, everyone was stunned.

The snow wolves are the native inhabitants of the southwestern frontier.

They hunt and survive here...... There's hardly anything they don't know about.

Moreover, wolves have an extremely sensitive sense of smell, and no disturbance can escape their noses.

If only these wolf kings could show us the way, to find somewhere in the southwest that the Demon Lord covets......

I looked at Wei Junyao, but Wei Junyao shook his head and said, "Settle the army first and then make the next decision." ”

The team escorting the army has changed from hundreds of soldiers of the snow wolf cavalry battalion to thousands of snow wolf packs, mighty, like a full wind and snow shrouding the army together, running through the entire southwest snow, and on the second day, the help net came under the southwest moat.

As soon as the army appeared, it immediately aroused the vigilance of the soldiers stationed on the city walls.

A long, low trumpet resounded through the sky at the same time, and more and more enemies began to climb the walls, armed with swords and guns, and glaring angrily.

"Kill!"

When the enemy forces gathered one after another, Wei Junyao's lips opened lightly and lightly issued a battle order.

Hundreds of thousands of troops are attacking the city at the same time!

With the Bai family army and the Feng clan warriors as the vanguard, it was only the first handover, and they quickly occupied the city wall and began to fight bravely against the enemy.

In less than an hour, seeing that the Wushan army had already climbed the city wall one after another and began to pursue the remnants of the enemy in the Death Canyon, Wei Junyao said lightly: "All the Wushan soldiers will repair in place, and set off in half an hour to enter Nanming!" ”

After receiving the general's order, all the soldiers stopped what they were doing.

In fact, even Wei Junyao didn't give an order.

In addition to the Bai family army and the Feng clan soldiers, few people in the Wushan army dared to chase deeply.

Because from the other end of the city wall, there is the Death Canyon, which was once a taboo on the entire Yellow River Ancient Road, and the living are not allowed to enter, and the saints avoid it.

"What's going on over there?"

Wei Junyao asked Bai Jin, who led the team back.

"Before the scene could be counted, all the remnants of the enemy army had already fled into Nanming, and Death Canyon was completely occupied."

"Hmm." Wei Junyao nodded and said. "Half an hour later, Wushan's army also entered Nanming, and all actions were under the command of the Marquis of Wumei."

"Order!"

After Bai Jin left, Wuxiao Hou frowned slightly, looked at Wei Junyao and asked. "Aren't you going to go into Nanming with us?"

"I need to know what the Demon Lord is up to." Wei Junyao said. "Right now, the King of Youdu has just ascended the throne, and the Demon Lord's side should not make any moves against the Southwest in a short period of time, we must seize this time to figure out what is in the Southwest, otherwise when the Demon Lord everything comes into practice and becomes the third great sage today, it will be difficult for us to turn back."

"I don't really feel the same way." Sleepless Hou said. "The King of Youdu has just reached the Seventh Heaven of the Sage, how can you guarantee that he will not come to the southwest as soon as possible?"

"Why did he come to the Southwest?" Wei Junyao asked puzzled.

Wuxiao Hou smiled and said. "For someone who has betrayed you and wants to put you to death, will you give him a second chance?"

"You mean, the King of Youdu also has a suspicion of the demon army?" Wei Junyao raised her eyebrows lightly and said.

"Through my understanding of the King of Youdu, he is not a broad-minded person, I think that when Wuxinhou was the first general under him, just letting go of a woman could lead him to order the Eight Great Infinite Demons and a million demon army to surround and suppress him, and those things that the Demon Lord had done in Nanming before, do you think the King of Youdu can let him go?"

Wei Junyao stopped talking.

If even the King of the Hidden Capital, who has become the Sage Sevenfold Heaven, covets the southwest now, then it is indeed not a wise choice for us to stay here now.

But the master behind the King of Youdu is the Eastern Emperor Taiyi.

And the Eastern Emperor Taiyi has been in charge of the Heavenly Dao for so many years, will he not know what happened in the southwest hundreds of years ago?

Donghuang Taiyi not only knows, but must also know very well.

It's just that whether this change is in his and the next plan of the King of Youdu is very difficult to say.

"The current situation is turbulent, and the King of Youdu, who has just become the emperor of people, will definitely make a big move, just in case, it's better for us not to take risks at this time." Shui'er said. "And if the King of Youdu also covets something in the southwest, then with our current strength, we must not be able to confront it head-on, and if not, Nanming borders the southwest, but the Demon Lord is alone, even if we add the ghost baby, the Ghost Gate Dragon King, as long as there is no intervention from the King of Youdu, we still have a chance."

Seeing everyone's words, Wei Junyao nodded. "Then do as you say."

The Marquis of Sleepless answered, standing on the city wall and shouting. "Let's go, go to Nanming!"

For the current Wu Shanjun, the vast majority of people are extremely unfamiliar with Nanming.

Even Bai Jiajun is no exception.

This place, which was once enshrined as the tomb of a saint, still leaves a big shadow in the psyche of many people.

So the army was extremely cautious when crossing the Death Canyon.

Led by 100,000 night demons, behind the 100,000 Bai Family Army Palace, the soldiers of the Feng clan were interspersed in it, slowly passing through the Death Canyon.

When we arrived at the exit of the canyon, Wei Junyao, Shui'er and I passed first, and what entered the line of sight was the gray swamp, as well as countless demon armies waiting for battle.

These demons do not have a unified armor system, and the weapons in their hands are also varied, but the formation is very rigorous, and it is a common formation of encirclement armor on the battlefield.

It is Wu Shan's originality.

And in front of the demon army, there were dense corpses lying there.

They are all wearing the armor of the Demon Lord's command, and they are the defenders who escaped from the Death Canyon before.

"Where is Wu Qingshan?" Looking at the murderous demon army in front of him, Wei Junyao shouted quietly.

"General Wu Shan, Wu Qingshan has been waiting for the princess for a long time!"

Wu Qingshan stepped out of the sword, walked out of the demon army formation, and knelt on one knee in front of Wei Junyao.

"I knew you weren't going to let us down." Wei Junyao smiled and helped him up from the ground. "It's just that you don't need to go to the ancient road this time, but you have to continue to stay in Nanming with me."

"The last will understand." Wu Qingshan said. "I also have an understanding of the situation of the ancient road here, the army is impermanent, the water is normal, and it is indeed the best choice at the moment to temporarily avoid the momentum of the king of the hidden capital in Nanming, but after the princess comes to Nanming, does she have a detailed plan?"

Wei Junyao glanced at the dark demon army in front of him and said, "There are many people. ”

"190,000!" Wu Qingshan said.

"Okay." Wei Junyao nodded and said. "I want your 190,000 people to be scattered on the spot, and not a single one will be left!"
