Chapter Seventy-Three: The Rain Clears and the Sky Clears
Seven days, and seven more days.
It has been another seven days since Nangong invited the wicked five demons to join forces.
In the past seven days, many things have happened in the land of Datang, among which there are two that have the greatest impact.
The first is the continuation of the Sword Tournament.
Yes, the Famous Sword Conference continued.
However, it has taken a different approach.
Just as Feng Mingzhuo deduced, with the people of Xie Tianshu, the leader of the Haoqi Alliance, and Wang Xuemo, the lord of the Wicked Valley, and with the style of the Tang people, within seven days, there will definitely be a large army going north and fighting the Wolf Tooth Army head-on.
In fact, the efficiency of the Tang people's actions far exceeded Nangong's expectations.
It didn't take seven days, just three days after Nangong saw Wu Xiaochen, the vanguard of the wicked and the heroic forces had already braved the heavy rain overnight, crossed two thousand miles, and rushed to Nanping Pass and Kunlun Pass.
After clearing the 20,000 poisonous corpses of Suman Manbu in the two cities overnight, they entered the Rongtianling Mountain Range on the second day, pointing at the Wolf Tooth Army's closest stronghold in the Jiangnan region, Mobeiyuan.
This is an elite team jointly sent by the ten major sects of the Tang Dynasty, led by the ten major sects themselves, with five people from each faction, a total of fifty people, among which the weakest one also has the early realm of the fourth order.
It can be said that these fifty people have included the strongest combat power of each major sect, representing the peak combat power of Datang.
In other words, as long as they are willing, they can make trouble in the Tang Dynasty's 3,000-mile territory at any time.
Third-order peak cultivators like Bai Chi, Five Uniques, and Five Demons were already the number one masters in Datang, but among these fifty people, there was no place at all.
It's not that they're too weak, it's just that they're too young, that's all.
These two vanguard troops are the participants in the decisive battle of the Famous Sword Conference.
And the new way of the conference competition is: the one who takes the first level of the black pool wins!
And on the other hand. The two leaders, Xie Tianshu and Wang Xuemo, each led an army of 100,000 and marched north.
According to Feng Mingzhuo and Wu Xiaochen's inference, in ten days at most, the two armies will arrive at the Rongtianling Mountain Range.
"If you don't destroy the wolf's teeth, you vow not to return home!"
This is a statement jointly issued by the two leaders, which also represents the determination of the entire Tang Dynasty.
For such a situation, Nangong can only say one sentence: breathtaking.
He was not impressed by the strength of both sides.
After all, he is from Qinglong Academy, and he has seen too many masters, such as Lance and Fu Qinglong. Lu Hongchuan, the four deans and the like, any one placed in Datang, they are all god-like existences, it is estimated that one stomp will be enough for the entire Datang to shake three times.
Those who have seen the vicissitudes of the sea will not be shocked by the flow of the river.
But what Nangong admired and even marveled at was the efficiency of the Tang Dynasty and the decision of the two major forces of the wicked and heroic. And courage.
It is hard to imagine that since Nanping Kunlun has been destroyed one after another, with the order of the Wicked Valley Lord and the Haoqi Alliance Leader, it has been just a few days. Unexpectedly, he gathered an army of 200,000 and marched north.
That's an army of 200,000!
And such a feat, Xie Tianshu and Wang Xuemo did it so easily...... I don't know if this is due to the personality charm of Xie and Wang, or if this is the traditional style of the Tang people.
Above. It was the first major event that took place in these seven days. It happens between human beings, for human beings.
And the second major event is not in the world. but in heaven.
The things of heaven are not heavenly things as the name suggests, but the time of the day.
The rain is about to stop.
This heavy rain has not been encountered for 20 years, lasted for more than half a month, and almost flooded most of the Datang area, and now, it is finally going to stop!
It seems that providence makes people, it doesn't stop sooner or later, but it stopped on the same day that the Haoqi Alliance and the army of the Valley of the Wicked went north.
When the rain stops, it doesn't mean that the weather is clear, because the clouds have not dispersed.
The cloud is not a dark cloud, but a war cloud.
The dark clouds have dispersed, but the war clouds have just risen.
The news that the Tang Dynasty coalition army is moving north, Nangong can receive it, and of course Heichi can also receive it, and even earlier than Nangong, not later.
In the face of the army under the banner of "not destroying the wolf's tooth, swearing not to return home", it is impossible for the wolftooth army not to react.
And the various reactions of the Wolf Tooth Army only told Nangong one word, that is......
War!
If you want to fight, then come and fight!
In the Rongtianling Mountain Range, it has been painstakingly operating for five years, and at this point, the Wolf Tooth Army has finally shown its fangs.
Datang Jiangnan's reaction can be called fast, but the Wolf Tooth Army doesn't seem to be slow at all. In just three days, the Wolf Tooth Army began to mobilize the entire army.
Tens of thousands of wolf riders, countless low-level and high-level poisonous corpses, like returning ants, lined up with long dragons with no tail visible, continuously gathered towards Mobeiyuan, facing the two major passes of Nanping and Kunlun.
They had waited too long for this day, if it weren't for this unexpected heavy rainstorm, which made all the low-level poisonous corpses unable to move, I am afraid that their wolf riders would have broken through Nanping Kunlun and traveled all the way south along Luoshui, straight into the hinterland of Jiangnan.
Now, the heavy rain has finally stopped, and the most powerful combat force of the Wolf Tooth Army, the poisonous corpse, has finally been fully released. Blackpool's footsteps to the south will no longer be restrained.
An unprecedented battle is about to begin.
And all of this was silently watched by one person...... Well, there's also a fish.
The person is a young man, it is a Nangong book, and the fish is of course a small kunyu.
However, they can only look at it...... All this has nothing to do with them.
Because for such a big war scene, they are just outsiders, outsiders who can only watch from the sidelines.
So, Nangong went to the north.
The northernmost place in Datang.
There is a mountain there called Tien Shan. Because it is located in the northernmost part of the Tang Dynasty, it is also known as the extreme northern Tianshan Mountain.
Witnessing the strain of the Wolf Tooth Army, Nangong and Feng Mingzhuo and others immediately set off from Wujue Village and advanced towards the Tianshan Mountains in the extreme north.
Accompanying him, in addition to Liang Zi, Ye Jianzang, and Lin Xuanran, there were also the five demons of the wicked, as well as Bai Chi, the former chief senior brother of the Divine Ce Sect, Murong Chaifeng, the great killing god, and an unexpected person, Su Manman.
The group bypassed the blockade and ...... In fact, the main force of the Wolf Tooth Army has already gathered on Mobeiyuan, and at this time, there is really no blockade in the northland......
Crossing mountains and rivers, as for the cities in the middle and what are closed, for this group of people, it is completely a decoration.
As for the old and weak remnants of the Wolf Tooth Army who stayed behind to guard, not to mention.
They could have slaughtered all the way, but it didn't really make much sense, and they didn't want to waste too much time, so they ran all the way without stopping.
Although the journey was winding, under their full speed of hurrying, three days later, the Far North Tianshan Mountains were already in sight. (To be continued......)
