Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

When the army commander returned to the main city of the Tang clan with the remaining thousands of soldiers, the city lord and the three city lords greeted him outside the city.

This time, they went out to win a great victory, not only brought back all the spirit crystal mines, but also suffered very little losses, only about seventy percent of the soldiers died in the Beicheng Mansion, and thirty percent of the soldiers in the other two provinces and the main city.

This mortality rate was already lower than the best advance before leaving the army, and I thought that I could only return half or thirty percent of the soldiers at most, and bring back one-third of the spirit crystals.

Now about sixty percent of the warriors have returned, and the martial artists of the Purple Mansion Realm have returned seventy percent, and they have also brought back the entire spirit crystal mine.

None of these situations could be imagined by the Tang Clan City Lord, after all, this time they were facing Snow Lotus City, which was the strongest city in Jiangbian County.

When the city lord learned of the annihilation of tens of thousands of Snow Lotus City warriors this time, the whole person was so excited that he didn't know what to say, and the other four mansion lords were even more stunned, losing so few soldiers and annihilating so many enemies, is this still a battle against Snow Lotus City.

The dead figures in Snow Lotus City this time were more than ten times that of the Tang Iron City, and the martial artists of the Purple Mansion Realm were infinitely close to ten times, but these dead martial artists only accounted for ten percent of the comprehensive strength of Snow Lotus City, and they did not hurt the foundation of Snow Lotus City at all.

However, if such a large casualty were replaced by several other cities in the Tang Iron City, it was estimated that the city would be destroyed frequently, which was basically equivalent to four to fifty percent of the strength of a city.

It can be seen that the strength of Snow Lotus City is far from the surrounding cities, which is also the reason why it is expanding every year.

With such strength, and the fact that it is separated from Gangbye County by two cities, it expands its territory by encroaching on the surrounding cities every year.

When the military commander informed the Tang Clan City Lord and the four Mansion Lords of the Snow Lotus City Lord's promise, the entire Tang Clan Iron City Council Hall cheered, so that they could put all their experience on showing their strength, and at least in just ten years, they could pass through the surrounding cities.

As a city bordering Snow Lotus City, it has to fight with Snow Lotus City every year, and every time there are great casualties, it has dragged down the exhibition of Tang Clan's Iron City, and many excellent warriors have died on the border.

The good news came one after another, at this time, the entire Snow Lotus City Council Hall was filled with the smell of happiness, at this time they were extremely glad that this military action, just when the Tang Iron City City Lord wanted to reward the military commander, Tang Xinyi and Tang Xiaoru walked into the council hall.

"Father, I want to ask you something. Tang Xinyi said bluntly, not caring at all that there were martial artists with status in the Tang Iron City around her.

"Tell me, I'll answer as long as I know. The city lord was not angry because of Tang Xinyi's impoliteness, but looked at Tang Xinyi very kindly, with a hint of love on his face.

Before this, Tang Xinyi successfully entered the Purple Mansion Realm and became the second youngest Purple Mansion Realm martial artist in the Tang Iron City, the first young martial artist was Su Ming, and this record is estimated to be broken by few people.

"Father knows why he was able to win a big victory this time, why the mining efficiency has increased so much, why Snow Lotus City promised not to occupy my Tang Iron City, but why Snow Lotus City will retreat, if what I said is correct, the army sent by Snow Lotus City at that time was enough to destroy my Tang Iron City, has my father ever thought about why, and also, doesn't my father feel that there is something missing. Tang Xinyi asked with a frown.

"If you don't say I've forgotten, I'm really excited, I haven't heard so much good news for a long time, and there are so many happy events today. The Tang Clan's Iron City Lord said apologetically, and after he finished speaking, he looked at the military commander and several other commanders: "What about Su Ming Medicine Master and the Guardian Elder, why didn't you see them." ”

As soon as the city lord's voice fell, the commander of the main city led the army to step forward: "The elder of the clan has left, and he asked the army commander to bring a message to the city lord." ”

"What words. The city lord felt bad, and hurriedly looked at the military commander and said.

"City Lord, I was only concerned about the good news just now, and I forgot to convey the words of Elder Zong, I'm really sorry. The military commander didn't want to convey it, and even wanted to let so much good news dilute the phenomenon of Su Ming's absence, but Tang Xinyi and Tang Xiaoru came out to make trouble, so he had to say.

"The Elder of the Protector Clan asked me to tell the City Lord: If Su Ming Medicine Master does not come back after a year, he will leave, and he will never have anything to do with the Tang Clan's Iron City in the future. The military commander said in a very flat tone, as if he really wanted the Elder Protector to leave, and even wanted Su Ming not to come back.

"What do you mean that after a year, Pharmacist Su Ming will not come back. The city lord's heart trembled, and then he frowned.

"City Lord, don't worry, Pharmacist Su Ming is just favored by the Sect Master of the Snow Lotus Sect, and Pharmacist Su Ming can get a better exhibition when he goes to the Snow Lotus Sect, so I think we should be happy for Pharmacist Su Ming. The commander said with a smile on his face.

"What, Su Ming was taken away by the people of the Snow Lotus Sect, how did he take it away. The city lord panicked at this time, the last thing he wanted to see was born, and this matter would completely disrupt his plans in the future.

"City Lord, don't worry, Pharmacist Su Ming was invited away by Snow Lotus City, and the requests that Snow Lotus City promised just now were all made because of Pharmacist Su Ming, all to show their sincerity, and Pharmacist Su Ming finally agreed, not only Pharmacist Su Ming agreed, but even the Elder Protector also agreed. The commander explained.

"Is that really the case? The lord of the city obviously did not believe it, and as he spoke, his eyes turned to the lord of the city.

"City Lord, this matter is not what the military commander said, in fact, Snow Lotus City forcibly took away Su Ming Pharmacist, and it was Su Ming Pharmacist who was tied up, as for the Elder Protector agreed, that is the Elder Protector Don't be helpless, if the Elder Protector does not agree, then the people of Snow Lotus City will attack my Tang Iron City, and will slaughter the city. "The lord of the city is truthful.

"Which of you two is right? The city lord asked with a gloomy face.

"City Lord, what Commander Mu said is true, I can fight at this point, not only me, but also the warriors and warriors behind us can fight, if there is no Su Ming Pharmacist this time, it is estimated that we will not be able to resist even three days, if it were not for Su Ming Pharmacist, it is estimated that we would have been wiped out a long time ago, so this time it is completely dependent on Su Ming Pharmacist, and in the end, it is also by him that we can exchange for the final victory and years of peace, I think not only what is the result, we should all make Su Ming Pharmacist the Guardian Elder of my Tang Clan Iron City, he used his life to defend the other Tang Clan Iron City this time。 The commander of Nancheng stepped forward and said with a firm face.

"If it's really like what you said, I will immediately crown Su Ming Pharmacist as the Elder of the Snow Lotus City Protector, and his status will be equal to mine. The city lord squinted his eyes slightly and said, at this time he regretted it, the loss of one Su Ming was far from what he could get.

Compared with Su Ming, these are simply some small interests in front of him, having Su Ming is equivalent to having a beautiful future, as long as Su Ming does not die young, the Tang Iron City in twenty years will definitely be able to compete with Snow Lotus City, and Su Ming will definitely have the strength to make Snow Lotus City tremble.

"City Lord, I can also testify to this, all the credit this time belongs to Su Ming Pharmacist, Su Ming Pharmacist was not only taken away by Snow Lotus City, but also in the first battle with Snow Lotus City, he was cut off by the martial artist of Snow Lotus City and became a one-armed martial artist, until the moment he was caught by the City Lord of Snow Lotus City, his left arm did not grow, if it wasn't for the loss of his left arm, Su Ming Medicine Master would definitely not be captured by the martial artist of Snow Lotus City lightly. ”

Tang Xiaoru walked out from behind Tang Xinyi at this time, and with Tang Xinyi's support, she said what she thought in her heart.

"What. The city lord was already a little angry at this time, he let out a low roar and then turned his head to look at the military commander: "Why don't you say this, why don't you say it, do you know what Su Ming Medicine Master means to my Tang Clan Iron City." ”

"City Lord, if we insisted on saving Su Ming Pharmacist at that time, then our people would be wiped out, and it would bring a devastating blow to the Tang Clan's Iron City, for the sake of the overall situation, we can only sacrifice Su Ming Pharmacist, in fact, we don't want to, there is no way. "Why was Pharmacist Su Ming captured, and what side of Pharmacist Su Ming did the Snow Lotus Sect like, did they know each other before," the city lord said curiously.

"The city lord doesn't know that Su Ming Pharmacist is a love-chasing pharmacist, and the reason why the Snow Lotus Sect sent troops like this this time is basically to come to Su Ming Pharmacist. The army commander was covered with beads of sweat at this time, and said with some panic, at this time he had already felt the pressure from all around, if he didn't pay attention again, it was estimated that his life in the main city would not be easy.

"Su Ming is chasing love, I" When he heard the news, the Tang Iron City City Lord was shocked, and at the same time, the four major mansion lords were all shocked, but the expressions on the faces of the four major mansion lords and the city lord were different.

There was more of a bad smile on the face of the lord of the Dongcheng Mansion, while the face of the lord of the Xicheng Mansion was more worried, the faces of the Nancheng Mansion and the Beicheng Mansion were more surprised, and the face of the city lord was more remorse and worry.

"What you did wrong this time, our Tang Clan Iron City can't do without Su Ming, otherwise it will be difficult for my Tang Clan Iron City to develop, and I don't know if the Guardian Elder will leave my Tang Clan Iron City this time. The city lord said with some annoyance, at this time he no longer had a trace of joy, and his mind was full of thinking about Su Ming's affairs.

"City Lord, I think it's a good thing for Su Ming to go to the Snow Lotus Sect, as long as we treat Xicheng Mansion well, then we can rely on Su Ming to keep the Tang Clan's Iron City, so that we can still develop quickly, and we can even use Su Ming to get the support of the Snow Lotus Sect. Dongcheng Mansion got up and said at this time.

This time Su Ming was captured and the Crazy Sect left, which was excellent news for his Dongcheng Mansion, and at this time he had been thinking in his heart, whether to do it now or wait a year to do it.

There is an advantage to doing it now, that is, it can be taken by surprise and hit the main city by surprise, but there is a big hidden danger, that is, the Crazy Sect may appear anytime and anywhere.

If you wait for a year, then it is very likely that you will wait for Su Ming to come back, but if Su Ming can't come back, then as long as the Protector Elder leaves, their Dongcheng Mansion will be able to take action immediately, but then the main city will be prepared, and if you want to take the main city, you will have to pull the alliance master for yourself.

"The Snow Lotus Sect and the Jiangbian County are inherently incompatible, and it is not good for us to get too close to the Snow Lotus Sect, after all, we are on the territory of the Jiangbian County, and we still need his protection. The city lord glanced at Dongcheng Mansion and said.

"City Lord, now that the matter has been born, what else can we do, do we go to chase it now, can we catch up, even if we catch up with us, are we people's opponents, it is said that this time Snow Lotus City has sent five Vientiane Realm martial artists, so please think about it." The Dongcheng Mansion Lord continued.
