Chapter 243: Rebellion
Ji Yu and Canglong took Xiang Yun directly to the mountain behind Qilin Peak, in front of a cave at the highest point.
The clouds and fog outside the cave dissipated, the door of the cave opened automatically, and the three of them entered on foot.
When entering the cave hall, I saw that in the empty hall, there were three empty futons, and on the top of the futon at the top of the hall, there was an illusory figure shrouded in smoke and clouds, which was Mu Yunzhi, the dean of Fengyun Academy.
As soon as Xiang Yun saw this figure, his originally slow footsteps suddenly stagnated, and his face couldn't help but show a hint of strangeness.
His eyebrows moved slightly, and a red line loomed.
Xiang Yun pierced the smoke clouds around Mu Yunzhi with her shattering eyes, still the familiar moving figure, covered with a black veil, at this moment her eyes were closed, and her expression seemed calm and indifferent.
"Dean, Elder Xiang Yun has returned to the sect!"
Ji Yu bowed towards Mu Yunzhi.
Mu Yunzhi slowly opened her eyes, like two bright stars.
Her gaze swept over the three of them, and finally fell on Xiang Yun, still the ancient well without waves, deep and calm, and there was no longer the shame and anger after waking up in the Futu Ding that day.
"Elder Xiang, this trip has been hard, sit down!"
Hearing Mu Yunzhi's cold and indifferent voice, Xiang Yun bowed his hand and sat on the futon with Ji Yu and the others.
The four of them sat opposite each other, and Mu Yunzhi spoke immediately.
"Elder Xiang, this trip to the ancient ruins, thanks to your efforts to turn the tide, repel the Extreme Yin Ancestor, save my Fengyun Academy, and also save my Northwest Alliance, my Northwest Alliance can still survive, Elder Xiang, you have made great contributions.
This dean has already announced that he will make you the new Supreme Elder of Fengyun Academy, and give you a piece of the best cloud weapon, and you will sit in the Ying Heavenly Hall in the future.
I also hope that Elder Xiang can continue to take responsibility for the future of the academy and defend the prestige of my Fengyun Academy!"
Ji Yu and Canglong also laughed.
"Elder Xiang Yun, congratulations, congratulations! From now on, you will be the Supreme Elder of the Heavenly Palace, so you will be our peers!"
Hearing that Mu Yunzhi actually made himself the Supreme Elder of Fengyun Academy, he also rewarded himself with a superb cloud weapon in recognition of his great achievements in the ancient ruins this time.
For some reason, Xiang Yun actually felt that instead of being a little happy in his heart, he felt a little uncomfortable in his chest.
"Dean, I am a disciple of Fengyun Academy, these things are what I should do, and I don't need to be so rewarded. ”
Mu Yunzhi said lightly when she heard this.
"My Fengyun Academy has always had clear rewards and punishments, and the elders are meritorious, so I, the dean, naturally deserve to be rewarded, which is understandable!"
"This ......"
"This matter has been decided, and Elder Xiang does not need to say much. ”
Xiang Yun looked at Mu Yunzhi in a daze, a complicated color flashed in his eyes, and in the end, he could only sigh secretly and promise.
"Thank you, Dean, for your generous reward!"
Xiang Yun knew in his heart that Mu Yunzhi's rewards and punishments were clear, and he was deliberately drawing a line with himself, and he was also telling himself that the two would always be the relationship between the dean and the elder.
Mu Yunzhi didn't seem to feel Xiang Yun's complicated eyes, and still said lightly.
"Elder Xiang, I asked you to come here today, in addition to the reward, I also want to discuss another matter with you.
You've just returned to the academy now, so I'm afraid you don't know much about the current situation in the Northwest Alliance, right?"
Xiang Yun suddenly cheered up, now that the Ghost Gate is attacking the Northwest Alliance, this kind of move is really a bit suspicious.
Without Mu Yunzhi to speak, Canglong said to Xiang Yun.
"Elder Xiang, do you think that the ghost sect launched this war, it is really a bit unexpected, and even the chances of victory are not great. ”
Xiang Yun nodded.
"That's true, in the battle of the ancient ruins, the ghost gate suffered heavy losses, and it was already a broken muscle, and the Extreme Yin Ancestor had been seriously injured, and without a few years of recovery, it would never be possible to make waves again. ”
Canglong nodded in agreement, but then sighed.
"Actually, at the beginning, we were also puzzled, why the Ghost Gate was fighting at this moment, and why didn't we wait until the Extreme Yin Ancestor recovered before launching an invasion.
Although the pressure on the front line of the Union Army is great, it has always been able to support and resist. ”
Speaking of this, Canglong's expression was a little weird, even difficult to see.
"But yesterday, we already received the latest battle report from the front, and maybe we already know what the reason is. ”
"Hmm...... What is the reason?" Xiang Yun asked, staring at Canglong.
"Yesterday, there was a secret report, in the Northwest Alliance Army, the army of the Hongmanzong suddenly disappeared, and the three major forces, including my Fengyun Academy, immediately sent people to contact the high-level of the Hongmanzong, but there was no response, and all the messengers who went to the Hongmanzong did not return. ”
"Elder Canglong, you mean ......" Xiang Yun's face changed!
"Hmm...... The Hong Barbarian Sect may have rebelled!"
Although he had already guessed in his heart, Xiang Yun still couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat when he heard this.
Although in the Northwest Alliance over the years, there are spies hiding among the four major forces, no one has ever worried that one of the four major forces will become a traitor.
Because the four major forces are in the same breath and share the resources of the northwest, and now among the four major forces, the Hongmanzong with the highest comprehensive strength has actually rebelled, which is really amazing news, which will affect the changes in the entire battle situation!
"Elder Canglong, is this news accurate?" Xiang Yun couldn't help but ask.
This time, Mu Yunzhi replied: "The information is accurate, and according to the information brought back by the secret agent this morning, the army of the Hong Barbarian Sect has already entered the Ghost Gate camp, and it may be a few days later, it will start to attack the Northwest Alliance with the Ghost Gate!"
No wonder that when they entered the ancient ruins that day, the four major forces of the Northwest Alliance, in order to compete for that demigod weapon, the leaders of the three major forces all appeared, but the sect master of the Hongman Sect did not appear, and now it seems that all this is probably planned a long time ago!
First, he lured the three major forces into the ruins, and then borrowed the blood sacrifice of the three major forces to rescue the Extreme Yin Ancestor.
When the vitality of the three major forces was greatly damaged, the Hongman Sect united with the Ghost Sect again, and the inside and outside should be combined to attack the Northwest Cultivation Realm.
Interlocking and exquisitely planned, Xiang Yunguang thought about it, and his scalp was a little numb.
It seems that the Ghost Sect and the Hong Barbarian Sect have long colluded and played a big game of chess!
But the original effortless game was not a coincidence, but it was ruined by Xiang Yun's variable.
"The Ghost Sect and the Hongman Sect, for this plan, it can be said that they have worked hard, and now even if the ancient ruins are lost, they still launched a decisive battle, and they are still against the northwest of the continent, and they are determined to win!" Mu Yunzhi said.
At this moment, the atmosphere in the cave mansion undoubtedly seemed a little dignified, and now the battle between the Northwest Alliance and the Ghost Gate was already balanced.
And the sudden rebellion of the Hong Barbarian Sect is like the last straw that crushes the camel, and it will immediately break this balance!
"Dean, I wonder if you have a plan for dealing with it?"
Xiang Yun knew that Mu Yunzhi and the others must already have a certain way to deal with it, otherwise it would be impossible to be so calm and tell themselves about the current situation.
Mu Yunzhi nodded.
"There is indeed a certain way to deal with it, and it is related to Elder Xiang. ”
"Oh...... What does it have to do with me?" Xiang Yun felt a little surprised, and looked at Mu Yunzhi suspiciously.
Xindao, it won't be for me to go directly to the ghost gate lair and clean up the dust ancestor, now that there is no female beast queen to help, rely on myself and the big demon king, find the door, it is estimated that I will be beaten out of.
Mu Yunzhi seemed to see that Xiang Yun was weak in his heart, and said lightly.
"Elder Xiang doesn't have to worry, this battle is a battle between the Northwest Alliance and the Ghost Gate, and it can't be reversed by the power of one person, besides, the Righteous Path Alliance has an agreement, and the powerhouses of the Extreme Star Martial Emperor level are not allowed to make a move at will. ”
As soon as these words came out, Xiang Yun's heart suddenly relaxed, and he still waited for Mu Yunzhi to continue to speak with a normal face.
"What this dean is talking about is related to Elder Xiang, referring to Fengyun Country!"
"Fengyun Country?" Xiang Yun's eyelids jumped suddenly, and he had a bad premonition.
"The dean is saying that this big war may affect the Dao Fengyun Country. ”
"It's not possible, it will definitely affect the Fengyun Country, originally the four major forces in my northwest were fan-shaped in the northwest of the continent to resist the invasion of the ghost gate, but now that the Hongman Sect has rebelled, the northwest is like one less portal.
If the cultivators of the Hongbarian Sect unite with the barbarian army, go south to attack Fengyun Country, and then attack from the rear and attack the Northwest Alliance, then the alliance will fight on both sides, the situation will inevitably deteriorate, and the Northwest Alliance will definitely be defeated. ”
Xiang Yun's eyes narrowed, and he immediately understood what Mu Yunzhi meant.
"What does the dean mean, to set up a defense line in Fengyun Country to resist the barbarian army going south?"
Mu Yunzhi said.
"Yes, this dean hopes that Elder Xiang can lead a group of elites to the Fengyun Country, lead the army of the Fengyun Country, guard the north, and resist the barbarian army and the Hong Barbarian Sect to the south. ”
Xiang Yun was noncommittal, but asked rhetorically.
"Then the northwest border, can it withstand the frontal attack of the Ghost Gate and the Hongman Sect?"
What Xiang Yun is really worried about is whether the coalition of the three major forces can withstand the frontal offensive, otherwise it will be in vain to defend the north.
"Yes!" Mu Yunzhi replied categorically!
"The Northwest Alliance has been established for hundreds of years, and it is always on guard against the general attack of the Ghost Gate, the four major forces have secret means and hole cards, not to mention that we are waiting for work, even if the Ghost Gate unites with the army of the Hong Barbarian Sect, it is impossible to easily break through the alliance army.
Moreover, from the trip to the ancient ruins, our three major forces have gained a lot, and now the comprehensive strength of our Fengyun Academy has also improved.
Now Elder Yan Fushan, Xiang Jingming, and Li Changsheng, in the near future, it is possible to break through the realm of the Martial King of the Galaxy and fill the top combat power of the Fengyun Academy, and the same is true for the other two major forces, even if the Ghost Sect and the Hong Barbarian Sect join forces, we can also fight.
What's more, behind the Ghost Gate, there are still several first-class sects eyeing the Ghost Gate, once the Ghost Gate falls into a protracted war, it will inevitably be surrounded by wolves, and the Ghost Gate can't afford to drag it out, and it won't dare to drag it, so it will definitely retreat!"
After listening to Mu Yunzhi's analysis, Xiang Yun pondered for a while, and finally agreed with Mu Yunzhi's opinion.
With the current situation of the Northwest Alliance, it is indeed possible to fight, and if you don't seek to win a battle, as long as you are not defeated, it is the biggest victory!
"Okay, Dean, I'm willing to lead the team to Fengyun Country!" Xiang Yun directly agreed, even if Mu Yunzhi didn't have an order, Fengyun Country was in trouble, and Xiang Yun couldn't stand idly by.
Hearing this, Mu Yunzhi nodded with satisfaction.
"Okay, now the Hong Barbarian Sect has not made any moves, and the barbarian army is also gathering troops. I have sent a message to the Storm Country, and the Storm Nation is also gathering troops.
During this time, we will also stand still, you deal with your own affairs as soon as possible, and as soon as there is any movement in the Hongman Sect, you will immediately take people to Fengyun Country.
This time, you can choose 100 elite disciples and 30 elders to accompany you. ”
Hearing this, Xiang Yun couldn't help but feel a stir in his heart, a hundred elite disciples, plus thirty elders, this number seemed to be a little small.
But these more than 100 people, all of them are masters in the sect, and they really went to the battlefield, and the combat power they exerted was not weaker than the army of more than 100,000, and they could also play a greater role.
"Dean, will taking so many people affect the battle situation on the front line?"
"You don't have to worry about the front-line battle, this rear defense task is fully in charge of my Fengyun Academy, and on the battlefield ahead, the Daoist Academy and the Hongman Sect will take on more responsibilities. ”
When Xiang Yun heard this, he nodded reassuringly.
"Everything is in accordance with the Dean's decree!"
