Chapter Twenty-Three: The Demon Soldiers Are Coming

The training of the Qi Control Hall continued, and everyone had a sense of relief, after all, there were two strong opponents missing, one was Han Qing, whose martial arts were the highest among the new disciples in this year's new sect, and the other was Duan Feng, the second son of the city lord.

For Su Yanjun, although he was not exempted from entering Tianyi Pavilion, he was inevitably a little sad in his heart when he saw his two friends being punished like this, and he was not much interested in entering Tianyi Pavilion, and even a little repulsed, if it weren't for Ouyang Zhen's request that all the disciples participate in the selection, Su Yanjun would have planned to give up this opportunity.

Han Qing, who was punished with a cane, lay on the bed for more than a month before he could move freely, although Han Qing's internal strength was profound, but the execution of the royal forest guard seemed to have deliberately killed him, and Han Qing gritted his teeth to survive the punishment.

During this period, the relationship between Su Yanjun and Han Qing heated up rapidly, at least in the eyes of outsiders, Han Qing was somewhat moved by Su Yanjun's frequent visits.

Han Qing is an orphan, no one has ever treated him well like Su Yanjun, his master only uses himself as a tool, from the master, he doesn't feel a trace of warmth, everything he does is arranged, there is no personal emotion mixed in, and it is the same when he enters the Qi Control Hall.

Han Qing felt that his life was like walking in the dark, there was no light, his neck was locked by a cold chain, the other end of the chain was the master, he could only walk under the guidance of the master, once he took the wrong road, the chain around his neck would shrink tighter and tighter until he strangled him to death, but no matter good or bad, this chain was also his only lifeline in the night.

But Su Yanjun's appearance brought a glimmer of light to Han Qing's world, and following this light, Han Qing felt that he could finally see the road under his feet, but he didn't dare to set foot on this road, he could only watch from afar, despite this, he was still very happy.

And Duan Feng was more depressed, he couldn't enter Tianyi Pavilion, what was the use of keeping two spirit beasts by himself, so he returned the canary to Liu Yuwei, not so much to return it, but to be snatched by Liu Yuwei, and he only left the unicorn as his own spirit animal.

Liu Yuwei had always disliked Duan Feng's decision to enter Tianyi Pavilion, and when she heard that Duan Feng was forbidden to enter Tianyi Pavilion, she ran to congratulate him with joy and took the opportunity to snatch the canary.

The training continued, and although Duan Feng didn't put much energy into it, he clearly felt that his qi was constantly rising, and the qi in his body sometimes couldn't even control himself.

This made Duan Feng feel very confused, but he didn't dare to tell outsiders, he was worried that this was the effect of the five yin poison, but he was not sure, according to common sense, he couldn't cultivate high-level qi techniques, but now it was obvious that he could cultivate, and besides, the poison in his body hadn't occurred for a long time.

"Could it be that the qi element of the northern giant python has played a role?" Duan Feng thought to himself, but he didn't dare to reveal it to others, he didn't want people to suspect that he was suspected of colluding with the Demon Realm. So he could only try his best to hide his aura in his usual training.

While the training of the Qi Control Hall was in full swing, an army of the Demon Realm was carrying out a fierce attack on Moonlight City, a satellite city of Phoenix City.

After receiving the report for help, Duan Tiande immediately gathered his men and prepared to send the generals of the Qi Control Division led by Liu Nanchun and the men and horses of the Armed Forces Division to come to the rescue. But he was stopped by Ouyang Zhen.

"Your Excellency, I'm afraid I'm afraid I won't be bothered by the envoy about the defense of Phoenix. Duan Tiande said with a disdainful face.

Ouyang Zhen sneered and said, "The old man in Phoenix City naturally has no right to interfere in the mobilization of soldiers and horses, but doesn't Brother Duan want to test the training results of these new disciples? After all, after training for so long, it's time to pull it out and show it." ”

"No, these sects have just entered the Qi Control Hall to cultivate for less than two months, and now letting them fight against the demon soldiers is tantamount to sending them to death. Duan Tiande flatly refused.

Ouyang Zhen knew that he had no right to interfere in the military affairs of Phoenix City, but during this period of time, Tiande repeatedly challenged his authority, which made him suppress a cloud of anger in his heart, and there was nowhere to release it.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ouyang Zhen finally took out his identity as a special envoy to threaten him, and tried his best to ask the new disciples to go to the battlefield, first, to test the armament of Phoenix City and the combat power of the Qi Control Division, to prepare for the later stage, and secondly, to be able to save a little face.

But Duan Tiande is not a fuel-efficient lamp, after some disputes, in the end, the two sides made concessions, only let the students watch the battle, and did not participate in the battle, for whether to participate in the armed forces division, it stands to reason that the armed divisions should not join the battle, if the war is really urgent, according to the procedure, it is necessary to mobilize the rangers stationed abroad.

"But the nearest ranger is also thousands of miles away, and the daylilies are cold when they arrive here!" Duan Tiande was stiff, obviously very dissatisfied with Ouyang Zhen's wanton interference in the military of Nanhai County.

"As far as I know, there is a ranger army stationed a hundred miles away from Moonlight to allow them to go into battle. ”

Duan Tiande chuckled in his heart, as if his secret had been discovered by others.

"How did he know about this?" Duan Tiande secretly thought to himself in his heart, it was a ranger army he had secretly dispatched, and even Liu Nanchun didn't know about it.

"The Spitfire Battalion is now in a state of recuperation, and most of the officers are on leave, unable to form combat effectiveness in a short period of time, and are not suitable for participating in the war. Duan Tiande explained.

"Really?"

"Alright! I'm done. Duan Tiande hastily ended this conversation, and Ouyang Zhen did not continue to ask, at least he knew a little, Duan Tiande was secretly expanding the army, and these imperial courts did not know, and Liu Nanchun did not know.

The left army is led by Liu Nanchun as the commander, the deputy commander is Liu Wenxing, the main general is Liu Wenbao, and the generals under his command are all Liu Nanchun's cronies, and the vanguard officers are all the gas of the Qi Division.

The right army has Duan Tiande as the main commander, the deputy commander is Sima Ran, and the main general is Ouyang Xuan, which is also Ouyang Zhen's request, most of the vanguard officers are high-level martial artists, and there are not many qi masters, this kind of true appearance is obviously not suitable for fighting with the demon army.

Martial artists are mainly based on martial arts, but unlike ordinary martial arts practitioners, martial artists are born with martial souls, which makes them naturally stronger than ordinary people, with greater strength and speed, and an adult middle-level martial artist can kill two prime-aged white lions with his bare hands.

Because of the martial soul, this also leads to the inability to regenerate the qi soul in their body, and it also fundamentally cuts off their way to practice qi control techniques, in a sense, martial artists are naturally one level lower than qi masters, but they are one level higher than ordinary people, so for tens of thousands of years, martial artists have been half-dead on Qiu Ze Road.

Martial artists are divided into three stages, high, medium and low, low-level martial artists, when they are ten years old, they can be ten when they are ten, ten ordinary adult men can be blasted hammers, middle-level martial artists can deal with two demon soldiers on the battlefield without being injured, and high-level martial artists can fight against a Qi Master at the level of the Four Realms Qi Spirit, so it is okay to be a pioneer officer, but it is still a little difficult to deal with a large-scale demon army.

The two armies rushed to the aid of Moonlight City, one after the other. Everyone was puzzled by this arrangement, and it stands to reason that the two armies should rush to the aid of Moonlight City from two directions, or merge directly into one road. In this way, it can exert more power.

"Duan Tiande is also too confident in his Qi Control Technique, right? He actually sent these martial artists to deal with the Demon Army. Ouyang Zhen scoffed.

"Over the years, his style has become more and more incomprehensible. Liu Nanchun muttered.

"It seems that Duan Tiande is trying to set aside the young master's life. Ouyang Zhen looked at Liu Nanchun and sighed, "The Armed Forces Division, which was originally responsible for the defense of the city, actually participated in the battle this time, and was also in front of the Qi Control Division, obviously wanting the Armed Forces Division to make meritorious contributions." ”

Liu Nanchun looked at Ouyang Zhen, but did not answer, and left the Duan Mansion with everyone with a cold face.

Moonlight City is located two hundred and fifty miles northwest of Phoenix City, a small city with a population of less than 20,000, but its strategic position should not be underestimated.

Because Montenegro, which is less than thirty miles away from Moonlight City, is the location of the largest black iron mine in the Eastern Fence Country, half of the black iron ore in the Eastern Fence Country comes from here every year, and the north of the Black Mountain is adjacent to the Netherworld Abyss, which is the place to suppress the demon army.

If the Demon Realm controls Moonlight City, it can not only directly threaten the safety of Phoenix City, but also directly control the black iron ore, and then the Demon World can continuously obtain black iron ore to refine weapons, which is very important for the Demon World to build the Demon World Legion.

Therefore, in order to compete for black iron ore, the two sides have fought dozens of times, and each other has won and lost.

What's more, Duan Tiande once suspected that the demon army was sparing no effort to fight for Montenegro, and the main target was the demon army of the Netherworld Abyss

Duan Tiande led the army on the right to arrive at Moonlight City first, and according to the generals defending the city, the demon army had fled in the direction north of Montenegro. In order to prevent fraud, Duan Tiande sent Sima Ran to lead a team of men and horses to pursue, and he himself led another team of men and horses to enter Moonlight City.

Liu Nanchun led the left army to walk slowly on the way to Moonlight City, he knew in his heart that even if he walked to Moonlight City, the battle would have ended long ago, and it would not be his turn at all.

Although the generals complained in their hearts, they were helpless, they chose the wrong team, and they couldn't complain about others.

This surprised Liu Nanchun, but then he was excited. Although he didn't know why the demon army appeared here, at least he was able to prove the status of the Qi Control Division once again.

After hearing this news, the originally listless generals were instantly like chicken blood, and they were all in high spirits and ready to fight.

The two sides set up positions on the empty Gobi and prepared for battle. When Liu Nanchun saw the other party's coach, he frowned. looked at Liu Wenxing next to him, Liu Wenxing also looked at Liu Nanchun, and neither of them spoke.

It turned out that the other party's coach was the woman who fought with Liu Wenxing outside Phoenix City last time, and I saw the woman in black standing on the head of a huge northern python with a black longbow behind her.

Duan Feng in the back also noticed the woman.

"How is it her again. ”

A voice next to him startled Duan Feng, it turned out that Liu Yuwei was dressed as a man and sandwiched in the middle of the team.

"Why are you all so busy?" Duan Feng blamed.

"I want you to take care of it. Liu Yuwei said, and glanced at Su Yanjun behind him again.

"It's dangerous here, you follow me for a while, don't run around. Duan Feng knew that he couldn't control this eldest lady, so he could only let her mess around.

However, it was said that there had been a few rounds of fighting ahead, and two of them had been defeated, and one had already died.

The generals originally thought that this was another ordinary battle, but they didn't expect that this time the other party would come out with a hard stubble, and after a few battles, none of the generals dared to take the initiative to ask for help.

Seeing the appearance of the generals on both sides cowering, Ouyang Xuan sneered, and without saying anything, he left the team and flew to the front of the two armies, like a sharp sword stuck straight on the hard Huangshi ground.

Liu Nanchun wanted to stop it, but just as he was about to speak, he swallowed the words back.

At this time, a demon general was also sent on the opposite side, riding a group of black rhinoceros with blue faces and fangs, holding two giant axes, panting in his nose, and slashing over Ouyang Xuan.

Ouyang Xuan's arms were open, and a red light flashed in his eyes, only to see a black peacock entangled in black gas soaring up from behind Ouyang Xuan, Ouyang Xuan stomped on the ground with his right foot, flew directly to the peacock's body, and pulled out the Tianming Sword with his right hand, and the demon will kill.

The two of you come and go, the battlefield is dusty, I saw Ouyang Xuan riding a black peacock around the demon general and constantly attacking, and the demon general was able to parry a few moves at first, but then it was obviously a little difficult, and the giant axe in his hand was obviously out of rhythm.

I saw Ouyang Xuan standing on the black peacock, with his right foot, the Tianming Sword swung horizontally, volleyed into the air, and a sword qi flew towards the demon general.

The demon general set up the axe with both hands, only to see a burst of sparks, and the demon general rode a few steps on the hind legs of the rhinoceros, and the demon general only felt that his hands were numb, and the giant axe in his hand almost fell off.

Before the other party could stand firm, Ouyang Xuan jumped forward, flew away from the peacock, and gathered the aura of his whole body in the blade of the Tianming Sword, and the Tianming Sword stabbed at the throat of the demon general with a layer of golden light.

Before the demon general could react, the Tianming Sword had already arrived in front of him, and the demon would resist the giant axe, but it was too late, only a miserable scream was heard, and the demon general fell to the ground in response.

"Moo-"

The black rhinoceros roared roughly, leaving the corpse of the demon general and shaking its fat body and running towards the main formation.

Ouyang Xuan looked at the swaying black rhinoceros's buttocks, swung his sword forward, and a transparent sword qi left a deep groove on the ground, and then, the black rhinoceros was split in half and fell to both sides.

Phoenix finally pulled back a game, which caused a cheer behind Liu Nanchun.

At this time, Duan Feng had already squeezed to the front of the team, looking at the battle nervously, he found that after not seeing him for a few days, Ouyang Xuan's aura seemed to have improved a lot, and he couldn't see any signs of being seriously injured not long ago.

At this time, the commander of the demon army walked out of the formation and stood sideways in front of the formation, holding a black longbow in his hand, which made the atmosphere of the scene suddenly tense.

I saw the woman in black standing quietly in front of the formation, and there was no sign of attack. But Ouyang Xuan could clearly feel a force pressing towards him.

Ouyang Xuan held the Tianming Sword tightly, and the qi yuan emanating from the other party's body, Ouyang Xuan could clearly feel that the other party's qi was above him, and the qi yuan was mixed with a powerful dark power, Ouyang Xuan began to be a little worried in his heart, but the matter had come to this, and in the face of the people behind him, he was not easy to show his cowardice.

The woman in black looked at Ouyang Xuan opposite with cold eyes, sneered, and then fixed her eyes on Liu Nanchun behind Ouyang Xuan, Liu Nanchun also seemed to notice that the woman was looking at herself, so she stood up from her seat, and then sat down again.

Ouyang Xuan raised the Tianming Sword and aimed it at the woman in black, in order to be able to take the initiative in the battle, Ouyang Xuan was ready to strike first.
