Chapter 916: A false alarm

Time passed little by little, and in a blink of an eye, half a day passed, and it was getting late.

The puppet army never continued to advance, nor did it retreat, just stayed in the distance, black and oppressive.

"What the hell are these guys in the puppet city doing, fighting and not fighting, retreating and not retreating, what tricks do you want to play?" said the eagle-nosed man on the wall of Xuancheng.

Several of the people around Eryu who looked like leaders were also talking to each other for a while, obviously also having doubts, and they all made statements to guess the intention of the puppet city.

But Eryu stood there, not saying a word, his eyes flickering slightly, not knowing what he was thinking.

"City Lord, should we ......" Everyone speculated for a long time, but they didn't have a clue, but Eryu never said a word, and the eagle-nosed man couldn't help but ask.

"If the enemy doesn't move, I won't move, and there is no need to be in a hurry. You send additional men to patrol several other directions to prevent surprise attacks, and at the same time send scouts to find out how many people are coming to the puppet city this time......" Irry interrupted the Hawknose man's next words with a wave of his hand.

As Er's orders were issued, everyone nearby was ordered to leave one by one, and soon only the eagle-nosed man was left here.

"City Lord, why don't you summon the people of the other four cities to come here to defend against the enemy together? Although the number of people from the four cities is small, they are all elites, and their combat power is extraordinary. The hawk-nosed man asked in a whisper.

"At this moment, the battle situation is unclear, so there is no need to call on their forces for the time being. Erin shook his head.

A hint of doubt flashed in the eagle-nosed man's eyes, but he didn't say anything.

"I have some things to deal with, Shao Ying, I'll leave it to you here, if there is any change on the puppet side, you know what to do, you don't need to ask me for instructions. Eru glanced at the puppet army in the distance and spoke.

Shao Ying's face was stunned when he heard this, and he was about to ask a question, but Ira had already turned around and left, and his figure disappeared in a flash.

Shao Ying stood helplessly for a moment, and then had to turn around to convey Er's order.

Night fell quickly, and the armies of Xuancheng and Puppet City were each in full battle, but they did not attack, and they maintained a strange confrontation.

The moonlight was like water, gently sprinkled on the wilderness near Xuancheng.

On a low hill thousands of miles away from Xuancheng, a woman in a white dress stood quietly, looking up at the full moon in the sky, humming a song softly.

This woman wears a black veil on her face, and she can't see her face, but her graceful posture exudes an indescribable sense of bewitchment, and at the same time, it also gives people a sense of innocence and innocence.

The two diametrically opposed temperaments are intertwined, and when people look at them, their minds will fall into them.

"Sha Xin Daoyou's 'Xuannu Mei' has made great progress, which is gratifying. However, Daoist friends are near my Xuancheng, and they dare to leave the army and come here alone, which is really not small. An indifferent voice came, and the woman in the white dress flashed in the void ten feet away, and a black figure appeared out of thin air.

"If you want to do it, you can do it yourself. Sha Xin slowly turned around and said in a lazy tone.

The pure aura on her body disappeared abruptly, and an overwhelming charm emanated from her body, and the moonlight and night breeze nearby seemed to become much gentler.

"Hmph!" E's pupils shrank, and he snorted coldly, but he didn't move.

"I knew that Erdaoyou knew right from wrong, and would not shoot at a weak woman so indiscriminately. Sha Xin smiled and said.

"Gossip Huti, what is the purpose of your appointment for me to come here during the day, tell me quickly. If you want to provoke a war between the two cities again, Er's will follow. Eryu didn't see Shaxin's enchantment, and said coldly.

"Erdaoyou misunderstood, the concubine came this time not to provoke a war between the two cities, but to discuss with Erdaoyou about other important matters. Sha Xin smiled lightly and said.

As she spoke, the aura on her body changed suddenly, all the sense of charm disappeared, and her graceful figure instantly lost all its charm, and the whole person seemed to have become an ordinary woman, inconspicuous.

"Discuss something important?" Eryu asked with a frown in his heart again.

"Strictly speaking, I want to invite my friends to do a great thing. Sha Xindai smiled with a brow.

"Shaxin Daoyou, if you have anything to say, just say it directly, you don't have to beat around the bush like this. A hint of discoloration faintly flashed in Er's eyes, and he said lightly.

"Why should you pretend to be confused, all the two of us have been thinking about for all these years...... And where the entrance is, our puppet city has also been found, and it is better not to eat alone in Xuancheng. Sha stressed the hair hanging down from his sideburns and said indifferently.

When Eryu heard this, his face froze, his expression changed for the first time, and a sharp color appeared in his eyes.

"Why do you look at the concubine with such eyes, the location of that entrance is not a trick to follow Your Excellency to find, but my puppet city spent countless thoughts and manpower, a little bit of exploration and discovery, it is definitely just a bright light. Sha Xin said generously.

"Whether this is the case, Sha Daoyou knows in his heart, but what do you mean by eating alone just now, since Sha Daoyou also discovered that entrance, he must have already known the situation inside. It was so dangerous that Ermo had no intention of entering it in a short period of time. Eryu snorted, and then said calmly.

Although I only discovered the entrance recently, I also noticed that many of the natural dangers inside were gradually weakening, and presumably the natural dangers there were cyclical changes, and this was the weakest period. And your Xuancheng held the Five Cities Martial Arts this time, and set such a heavy reward, isn't it to select useful talents and go there. Sha Xin smiled, and there was a faint hint of charm in her beautiful eyes.

Hearing this, Er's face did not change, but a trace of coldness could not help but emerge in his eyes.

"Fellow Edu, although the danger at the entrance is weakening, the power of such natural dangers is still beyond our manpower to resist, my puppet city is powerless to enter it, and relying on the power of your Xuancheng alone, the hope is almost slim. The only way to do this is if we work together. Therefore, the concubine will work tirelessly to discuss this matter with Daoyou, and hope that Daoyou can make a wise decision. Sha Xin's words suddenly changed and he persuaded.

"What if I don't say yes. Eru's eyes flashed, and he said word by word.

"The concubine has no choice, so she has to start attacking Xuancheng from today, until the low tide period of the entrance is over, and no one wants to go in. Sha Xin said with a faint smile.

Er's eyes were fierce, and a terrifying cold coercion suddenly erupted from his body, overwhelmingly pressing towards Shaxin.

The void within a radius of dozens of miles hummed and trembled, the ground rumbled, and the storm was centered on the doom, impacting in all directions, and the heavens and the earth changed color.

Sha Xin's expression was calm, and he stood there quietly, unaffected by the coercion of Erren.

As soon as any surrounding storm touched its body, it immediately slid away, and the corners of Shaxin's clothes did not move at all.

Eryu took a deep breath, the aura on his body faded like a tide, and the storm near him slowly subsided.

"How do Sha Daoyou want to cooperate?" said after a moment of silence.

When Sha Xin heard this, her beautiful eyes bent, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

……

The night passed quickly.

Contrary to everyone's expectations, the army of the puppet city, which had been fighting all night, did not attack, but began to retreat.

It didn't take long for the army of the puppet city to disappear without a trace, leaving no trace, and the defenders in and around the city also died down under Er's orders.

A great war was gone.

The people in Xuancheng, as well as Han Li and other outsiders, were surprised, but they were also relieved.

After all, no one wants to start a war with a strong enemy unless it is necessary.

A few days later.

Inside the garden, Han Li sat cross-legged in his room, his body covered with white starlight, running the Heavenly Demon Suppression Martial Arts, refining the power of that heaven-level beast core.

The power of the stars contained in the heaven-level beast core was extremely huge, and although he had helped him with the Heavenly Bottle, he had been refining it for many days, but he still hadn't completely absorbed it.

A new mystical aperture on his body flickered with starlight, faintly showing that it was opened, but it still didn't open after all.

Han Li opened his eyes, but there was no disappointment in his expression, he got up and walked to the window, looking in the direction of the City Lord's Mansion outside.

At this moment, five or six days have passed since the imminent war.

After the army of the puppet city disappeared outside the city, it did not reappear, and it seemed that it had really faded.

However, although the puppet city retreated, the city lord of Erfu had no intention of reopening the five cities to meet the martial arts, and he had been staying in the other four cities for these days, and he was not allowed to go out and walk around.

But this morning, in the early morning, Ira suddenly summoned Chenyang and other city lords of the four cities, I don't know why.

At this moment, the sound of footsteps suddenly came from outside, and Han Li's eyebrows moved, and he opened the door, but it was a Qingyang City attendant.

The man was surprised when he saw Han Li suddenly come out, and then saluted respectfully, "Senior Li, the city lord invites you to come over." ”

"Got it. Han Li nodded, glanced in the direction of the City Lord's Mansion again, and then walked towards Chenyang's residence.

A moment later, he arrived at the Chenyang residence, where the door was closed.

Han Li's brows furrowed slightly, and he was about to raise his hand to knock on the door, when the door suddenly opened automatically, revealing a gap.

"Li Daoyou, come in. The voice of the morning sun came from inside.

Han Li's heart moved, and he stepped in.

The door behind him snapped and closed automatically, and at the same time, a layer of white light appeared on the stone door, completely isolated from the outside.

Han Li's heart moved again, and he looked towards the house, at this moment, there were only two people in the room except for Chenyang, but they were Gu Qianxun and Xuanyuan Xing, and the crab Dao people were still expressionless, standing quietly behind Chenyang.

Han Li was secretly surprised in his heart, he originally thought that Chenyang had called him over to explain the situation in Xuancheng to the rest of them, but he didn't think that he had only called the three of them, and he didn't know what his intentions were.
