Chapter 10 Preparations for War

The news of the Blood Shadow Sect's appearance soon spread throughout Nandu County, and a large group of people, young and old, began to move in the direction of the Great Zhou Capital. In order to live, they had to abandon their homeland, some of them had no old age, no queen and some old people who really didn't want to leave, they wanted to live and die with this Nandu County, even if they died, they had to die in their homeland, and the fallen leaves always had to return to their roots.

Yang Lie and Ye Xiao discussed, Xueyunzi and their army could not deal with it, so this matter had to rely on Ye Xiao, and the people of the barbarian tribe would be dealt with by Yang Lie and them. Several brothers were slightly stronger than ordinary soldiers, so they joined Yang Lie's camp.

According to the spies' response, the barbarian army has moved to the Half Moon Valley, and there is also a vanguard team stationed twenty miles outside the city. Both sides were testing each other, wanting to find out the details of the other party, even if Yang Lie lost the barrier of Half Moon Valley on his side, he was not afraid. Because it is easier to arrange troops in a flat place, this is what he is best at, but he can't use it when he is stationed in Half Moon Valley.

"Ye Gongzi, the most important thing in this battle is to look at your side, I don't know ....."?

Yang Lie's words were not finished, Ye Xiao knew that he wanted to ask him if he was sure to deal with Xueyunzi and the others.

Ye Xiao shook his head and said, "If it was just him, I wouldn't be afraid, but the Blood Shadow Sect is here, and if there is such a big movement, I always feel that things are not so simple."

"What if it is delayed until your sect's support arrives," Yang Lie asked again.

Ye Xiao still shook his head, "Biyun Sect is located in the southern part of the Shengyuan Continent, and it is tens of thousands of miles away, not only to cross the entire Great Zhou Dynasty, but also to cross the boundless sea, even if Senior Brother Imperial Sword travels thousands of miles a day, and then takes the teleportation array of the Shadow Building, it will take several days to go back and forth, unless there is a powerful force of the Dao Realm, but it is almost impossible." ”

"Why is it impossible?" he asked curiously, knowing nothing about the martial artist.

"Because I haven't seen it either, and there is no one in the sect, it's just a legend."

Yang Lie rolled his eyes when he heard this answer, this is equivalent to not saying it.

"But there are two places you can try, but I don't know if it's useful."

Hearing this, Yang Lie cheered up again and asked, "Which two places are they?"

"There is a place called the North Pole Sect in the north of the Barbarian Continent, he is a subsidiary sect of the Biyun Sect, and the news of the change in the Barbarian Continent was notified to the Biyun Sect by them, and the sect sent the senior brother here to investigate the abnormality."

"Where else is there"? Yang Lie was a little eager to know.

"There is another one that is the Shadow Building I just mentioned", many of the magic weapons that Zhou An brought to you before were exchanged in the Shadow Building, but the price is not affordable for ordinary people. ”

Yang Lie and several brothers were a little confused by Ye Xiao's answer, these two places, one they had never heard of at all, and the other they didn't know where it was, all with sad faces, you look at me, I look at you.

Ye Xiao smiled and patted himself, "Isn't there still me" Everyone knew that Ye Xiao was a martial artist who refined the body, but they didn't know that he could also control qi, and everyone was extremely surprised. What's more, before he dispersed the Yuan, he was in the Guiyuan Realm higher than the Imperial Qi Realm.

Ye Xiao jumped into the air and took a sword from the beam, the sword body was wrapped in a black cloth, full of dust, when Ye Xiao opened the black cloth and took out the sword, the sword body made a buzzing sound, as if returning to the joy of the master's hand.

"Old friend, long time no see" Ye Xiao pulled out his long sword, a red light shone through, and then closed in the sword in the next second. I saw that the sword was engraved with the word Chixiao, about three feet long, and it was said that it was once admired by a certain emperor. Because it has some homonyms with Ye Xiao's name, Ye Xiao chose it at the beginning.

"General Yang, I won't be in Nandu County for the next two days, you should pay more attention to the movements of the barbarians and the Blood Shadow Sect, and try to avoid fighting if you can. And Qingyi will have to trouble a few brothers to take care of one or two."

"Don't worry, big brother, with our brothers here, the eldest sister will be fine."

"Ye Gongzi pays attention to safety on the road." Yang Lie said goodbye to several brothers one by one.

Qing Yi has been a lot haggard in the past two days since Ye Ping was taken away by Ling Feng, and she looked a little depressed, although she knew that it was for his good, but she still couldn't accept that her child was born and left her. She was often worried about how Ye Ping was, whether she had enough to eat, whether she was crying, how her life was in Biyun Sect, when she would be able to see him, and whether he would blame me for not fulfilling my responsibilities as a mother at that time? It wasn't until Ye Ping left that Qingyi found herself more vulnerable and sad than she imagined.

Ye Xiao Yujian left, Qing Yi didn't know yet, he didn't tell her that she was tired enough in the past two days, and Ye Xiao didn't want her to worry about it.

Yang Lie asked his subordinates to call the deputy general Yang Xing, and they should also be active. These are extraordinary times, and we will not move if the enemy does not move, but we must be prepared first. Because of the existence of Ye Mansion, the area around the outer city has now become much better than before, and coupled with Zhou An's attention to Nandu County, the military salary is sufficient. It is not easy for the barbarians to take it easily.

"Yang Xing, you lead five hundred elites to vacate a clearing in the forest ahead. Then he led 500 soldiers to dig a ravine in the open space about a mile in front of the south city gate, which was three feet wide and about half a zhang deep. The longer, the better.

"Subordinate orders" Yang Lie nodded and said um. Let Yang Xing go down with the order. The most likely place for war is the south side of the city, which is also the direction to Half Moon Valley. The people of the barbarian tribe are generally taller than the people on Yang Lie's side, all of them are strong and burly. If you talk about fighting alone, Yang Lie's side will definitely lose, so you can only prepare in advance.

Ye Xiao stood on the Chixiao Sword and turned into a streamer of light and flew towards the north of the Barbarian Continent. The entire Barbarian Continent is only thousands of miles in size, and the Great Zhou occupies six or seven percent, and it is like a small island compared to the Shengyuan Continent where his sect is located, as if it has been forgotten by this world, and the cultivation methods over there have not spread here.

Ye Xiao came to the coast of the North Sea in the Barbarian Continent, where there was a branch established by the Shadow Tower and their teleportation array, so that they could communicate between the various continents. Most of the people who come here are also here for business, there are trading items, there are bounties for help, some rare and exotic items can be sold in the Shadow Building, of course, this is all at a price.

Ye Xiao came to a rocky valley, and from a distance, it was a barren place, and at first glance it was a place where birds didn't poop, and there wasn't even a single mosquito. I saw Ye Xiao make a sword finger in his hand, and hit a breath to the right, and the big stone next to him slowly moved to the right, leaking a deep entrance, Ye Xiao smiled, sure enough, this is the Shadow Building Branch.

Visitors are guests, the Shadow House is very welcome to others to do business, of course, not everyone can come, just the big stone at the entrance, you have to be a warrior to move. Ye Xiao followed the tunnel down and turned around a corner not far away, only to see that the originally dark tunnel instantly became brighter, the bluestone bricks on both sides were inlaid with an agate every other zhang, a light source hit the first one, after layers of refraction, the whole tunnel became brighter, Ye Xiao was also very surprised, this kind of means can only be willing to this shadow building.

Passing through the tunnel, there is a hall in front, and a young and charming girl in front of the tunnel entrance immediately greeted Ye Xiao when she saw Ye Xiao appear

"Welcome, what do you want to buy?"

"How is the bounty calculated?" Ye Xiao asked

"Childe, I'm sorry, the branch here has only been established for a long time, and there may be some delays in rewarding this aspect."

Ye Xiao was also helpless, but there was no way to do it: "Do you have a better magic weapon?"

"That's there, Childe."

The girl took Ye Xiao to the hall, there is a cave here, there are several holes around the hall, and each hole is marked with something clear in the hole. In the center of the hall is a three-storey attic standing in the middle.

The woman took Ye Xiao to a cave marked with a magic weapon, and when she entered the cave, Ye Xiao was shocked again. Tens of thousands of magic weapons were displayed on the shelves at one time, ranging from high-level magic weapons to elementary magic weapons, Ye Xiao really wanted to see how many spiritual weapons were in the cave next to the spiritual weapons.

"Childe, the magic weapons in the headquarters are all here, you see what kind of magic weapons you need, I'll get them for you."

Ye Xiao weighed his purse, and then selected more than a dozen high-grade magic weapons, which almost spent all the spirit stones he had saved over the years. He has prepared weapons for several brothers and Yang Lie, even if he is not defeated by Blood Yunzi, Barbarian King and the like, he can also improve his combat power in battle, which can be regarded as more guarantee for survival.

Ye Xiao left the Shadow Building, although he did not issue a reward, but he finally did not come in vain. In the next place, he is going to go to the Arctic Sect to see if he can get a helper over there, although there is not much hope, but it is better than nothing.

On the mountains hundreds of miles east of the coast of the North Sea, there is a small sect, and this is the Arctic Sect. There are two three-foot-thick bluestone pillars in front of the sect, and the bluestone pillars are carved with auspicious clouds, indicating the Biyun Sect, and the plaque on it is engraved with the three words of the Nuoda Arctic Sect, and there are hundreds of stone stairs on it. But now that this gate has been covered with thick fallen leaves, it seems that it has decayed, Ye Xiao thought to himself, come here or go up to take a look.

After walking the stone staircase, several houses made of white stone surround the square in the middle, and auspicious clouds are also carved on the outer walls. According to the master, the founding patriarch here used to be a member of the Biyun Sect, and after he left the Biyun Sect, he came to the Wild Continent and established the Arctic Sect here. When the master took him into the mountain, he stayed here.

Ye Xiao pushed open the courtyard door and went directly to the main hall, if it weren't for the fact that it was still a little clean, Ye Xiao would have suspected that there would be no one here.

In the lobby, an old man in a yellow cloth robe was meditating, and the statue in front of him was Biyun Shenjun, the founding patriarch of the Biyun Sect.

"Old man, the sect master here can be," Ye Xiao asked

The old man slowly opened his eyes, almost no one has come to this place in recent years, and today it is a little strange. The old man looked at Ye Xiao, stood up, and said with a stiff body

"The sect master left the Arctic Sect a few years ago, and now the people in the sect have left, and I am the only one left."

Although I didn't have much hope before I came, I was still a little disappointed to see this kind of scene with my own eyes.
