"Stay in your own place, and don't go around, and don't talk about anything, until I come back and make a decision. As soon as he returned to the other garden, Chenyang immediately commanded everyone in Qingyang City.

When he had finished speaking, he did not have anyone to reply, so he turned around and walked briskly outside.

Seeing this, the rest of the people exchanged a few glances, and then returned to their temporary quarters without saying a word.

Han Li returned to his room, a deep groan flashing across his face.

I don't know what happened, but I let Eryu directly order the suspension of the Five Cities Meeting, could it really be that the puppet city was coincidental or not, and it was a disaster at this time?

He wanted to find out some information from Gu Qianxun, but considering that the other party was afraid that he was also confused now, he gave up.

In fact, he was not interested in the dispute between Xuancheng and Puppet City at all, but in this way, his plan was disrupted.

If the martial arts can't go smoothly, he will become far away if he wants to get the Tianlin Meteorite Crystal, and if he doesn't solve the hidden danger of the Black Tribulation Worm, even if there is a way to get out of this secret realm, it will be a trouble after he gets out.

Han Li pondered for a moment, then quickly shook his head, no longer making useless guesses.

Now that we've come to this point, let's wait and see what happens.

With this in mind, he exhaled lightly, sat down cross-legged, and slowly closed his eyes.

Martial law was imposed everywhere in the city, and teams of black-armored soldiers guarded the main roads everywhere.

The ground near the gate of Xuancheng City rumbled, and the entrances of underground passages appeared, and groups of black-armored soldiers emerged from inside, and the city wall was soon full.

There was also a "click" and "click" sound on the city wall, and the stones on the city wall moved to both sides like living creatures, and a dark stone tower rose every 100 zhang distance.

On top of the stone tower is a huge crossbow with a huge amount of arrows.

Most of these crossbow arrows are silvery-white, flashing with a hint of cold light, and they look extremely sharp.

There are also a small number of crossbow arrows that are fiery red, and there are white lines engraved on them, exuding bursts of bursting aura, which is obviously a special kind of crossbow arrows.

In addition to these turrets, there are many trebuchets, machine weapons, and even many puppets of all kinds.

And on the Chongxuan Mountain Range near Xuancheng, there were also some figures faintly appearing, as well as some giant machine weapons.

All eyes were on the distance, as if they were facing a great enemy.

......

Han Li had been sitting in his room for about half a day when an attendant from Qingyang City suddenly came and invited him to gather at Chenyang's residence.

He didn't hesitate, and immediately set off to the meeting room, at this time there were already seven or eight people in the hall, Gu Qianxun, Yi Liya, Xuanyuan Xing and others were impressively listed.

Gu Qianxun saw Han Li coming over and nodded to him, which was considered to be a greeting.

Han Li walked over and sat down beside him.

"Martial law has been imposed everywhere in the city, and it seems that the situation is not good. Bone Chihiro said slowly.

Han Li frowned when he heard this, but did not speak.

"I know what Li Daoyou is worried about. If the Five Cities Martial Arts is really canceled, I will also find a way to help you get the Heavenly Lin Meteorite. Bone Chihiro said.

"If it's useless, why should Bone Daoist help me?" Han Li's eyes flashed slightly, and he asked rhetorically.

"I naturally have my reasons for helping you, to put it simply, you still have use value. Gu Qianhiro said lightly.

"Then I'm relieved. Han Li said with a smile.

While the two were talking, all the people in Qingyang City arrived, and Chenyang's figure also walked out of the inner room.

"Calling everyone over, if nothing else, is about the commotion outside, and I have already asked the reason. Within 10,000 miles north of Xuancheng, a large number of people from the puppet city were found. Chenyang said with a solemn expression.

Although everyone vaguely guessed something, when they really heard this, their faces changed.

Some people have a look of fear on their faces, while others have a glint of hatred in their eyes.

When Han Li heard this, his eyes lit up slightly.

Since there was no trace of Zi Ling found in Xuancheng, he had planned to go to Puppet City as soon as he had the opportunity, but he didn't expect the other party to find the door first.

"City Lord, how many people are there in the puppet city? Could it be that a small number of people from the puppet city have come here by mistake because of some things?" someone said.

"The exact number of people is still unclear, but the city lord of Eryu has found out, and the puppet city lord Sha Xin is also among them. Xuancheng had already issued a warning, but the other party ignored it at all, and still came towards Xuancheng, and the comer was not good. Chenyang shook his head and said.

"We, Xuancheng and Puppet City, are we going to fight again?" asked Gu Qianxun with a frown.

"The puppet city lord Sha Xin personally went out to do the horse, and there was no warning beforehand, which is not a good sign. Chenyang said slowly.

The room became silent for a moment, and everyone's eyes fell on Chenyang, but no one spoke.

"You don't have to worry, now that the elites of our Xuancheng and the four affiliated cities are all gathered here, and the location is advantageous, those people in the puppet city will never take advantage of it. Chenyang seemed to sense the dull atmosphere, and said sharply.

Hearing this, everyone's spirits were slightly shocked.

"In the meantime, you should be as prepared as possible, and if the big war really begins, we will have to take action as well. Chenyang's gaze swept over everyone and said slowly.

Although everyone was worried, they were not cowardly, and they agreed in unison.

Seeing everyone's reaction, Chenyang nodded with satisfaction, and then announced some regulations issued in the city.

"Bone Daoyou, do you think that the sudden appearance of the Puppet City Lord this time is really to storm Xuancheng?

"I can't tell. Xuancheng and the puppet city are at peace from time to time, but most of the time they are hostile to each other, and small-scale disputes are continuous, and after so many years of fighting each other, the two sides have already formed a deep hatred, so every large-scale confrontation involving the two forces is extremely fierce. Bone Chihiro replied.

"Presumably, when the relationship eased, it was because of some external reasons, right?" Han Li asked.

"That is, in the face of natural disasters or large-scale scale beast attacks, they will temporarily join forces. If I'm not mistaken, the last large-scale battle was 30,000 years ago, when the main battlefield was in Baiyan City, and the two sides fought fiercely for nearly a hundred years, most of the entire Baiyan City was destroyed, and there were countless casualties on both sides. At that time, the lord of Baiyan City was not Sun Tu, but another person, who unfortunately died in that battle, and Sun Tu took the opportunity to ascend to the throne and became the lord of Baiyan City. Bone Chihiro said.

"Unexpectedly, the conflicts and disputes between the survivors in this desolate secret realm that was almost forgotten by the outside world are still so fierce. Han Li shook his head.

"All battles are for the already scarce resources, in fact, whether it is Xuancheng or Puppet City, the ultimate goal is to get out of this dark and secret realm. Gu Qianxun glanced at Han Li and said with a deep meaning.

"I should have thought of it a long time ago, but the people who have this idea should be more upper-class people here, right?" Han Li nodded and said.

"Who knows...... If there is a real war, you must not be careless, and the strength of an individual is really insignificant in a large-scale confrontation. Gu Chihiro said admonishingly.

"City Lord, although the people of the puppet city appear outside the city, it is difficult to guarantee that their target will not be Qingyang City. We are all in Xuancheng at the moment, if Fio does something to send the main force to attack Qingyang City, with the strength of the city, it will be difficult to defend. After Chenyang finished announcing, Yi Liya spoke.

"I don't know about this, but now even if we go back to Qingyang City with all our might, it will definitely be too late, and we can only pray that the target of the puppet city is not there. Chenyang sighed and said.

Chenyang warned everyone about some precautions at this moment, and then sent everyone away.

The other three cities of the other gardens also received the news of the approaching puppet city at this moment, and hurriedly gathered their own combat forces and waited for them.

I don't know how long it took, and the sound of trumpets sounded one after another throughout the city, echoing the sound of Tianwei's war drums.

The once bustling streets are now empty, and even a few pedestrians are hurrying and panicking, and the shops on both sides are closed.

From time to time, on the main road in the city, there were groups of soldiers in armor or a few beast carts speeding by, rushing to all parts of Xuancheng, and the air was filled with the tense atmosphere of the approaching storm.

On the city wall of the main gate of Xuancheng, countless black-armored soldiers were busy in an orderly manner.

At this moment, a group of people climbed the city wall, and the soldiers in front hurriedly got out of the way.

The person at the head was none other than Ir Xu, and there were seven or eight people beside him, Tong Song, who had led Han Li and the others into the city that day, and the eagle-nosed man.

Eryu looked at the sky in the distance, silent, and the people next to him did not dare to disturb him.

After a moment, Ergo's eyebrows sank.

I saw a gray line appear in the sky in the distance, accompanied by a thunderous roar, rolling in.

The black-armored soldiers on the city wall soon saw the situation in the distance, and there was a commotion, and everyone clenched their weapons in their hands.

Expressionless, Erren raised his arm and waved it forward.

The gate of Xuancheng suddenly opened, and countless soldiers in black armor poured out of it, most of the soldiers walked out, and about thirty percent of the people rode various scale beasts, forming several phalanxes in the open space outside Xuancheng.

A scream came from the Chongxuan Mountain Range near Xuancheng, and then one by one flying scale beasts flew down from the mountain, most of them were a kind of vulture scale beasts, carrying some black-armored soldiers on their backs, densely occupying almost half of the sky, faintly forming a formation, waiting for the formation.

The gray line in the distance has become much larger at this moment, but it is a gray cloud like a sandstorm, and in the gray cloud, you can vaguely see that it is an army composed of countless puppets.

The puppet army also seemed to feel the formation outside Xuancheng, and stopped about a thousand miles away from Xuancheng, and no longer moved forward.

When the soldiers up and down Xuancheng saw the army of the puppet city, their hearts were full of war, and they all looked at Eryu, and when they waited for him to give the battle order, they immediately slaughtered him.

But what happened next was somewhat unexpected by everyone.

The army of the puppet city stayed quietly in the distance, and did not continue to attack, which made the other Eryu frown, and did not give the order to fight.

The two sides were at a stalemate.
