Chapter 446: Pretending to be harmonious

As your strength increases, you will control more and more vitality, and you will be able to absorb more and more vitality. The time of practice has changed from one or two hours at the beginning, to half a day later, and then to several consecutive days now. Xia Xiao could clearly feel such a significant change, so he was even more indulgent, and even curious, did anyone spend hundreds of years rushing through the level, but when they woke up, they were different?

Such fantasies are sad and desolate, but they make Xia Xiao find them interesting. Feeling that he was distracted, Xia Xiao withdrew from the state of cultivation. Today, he has reached his cultivation goal, and before he was just to sense the change in time, it didn't matter if he thought about it for a while.

Exhaled a few breaths, Xia Xiao got up and moved his muscles. His bones crackled as they writhed, and a slight breath of blood lingered in his throat. Following the road, Xia Xiao walked towards the pine forest, but he didn't expect someone to wait for him.

If Xia Xiao saw Xiaoran, he would definitely take her home very gently, and she would be quiet and beautiful along the way. If you see Ah Candle, you will definitely have a good conversation with her, and if you don't practice well, it's a waste of time. But what he saw was Su Huan and Ji Qingling, they were rare guests, they came to find him, and what they did must be related to the upcoming war. After coming to the academy, they came to find themselves only for NCB.

Although they all live in the same building, they are busy with their own cultivation all day long, and if they don't deliberately meet each other, they really can't see each other. But now that the situation is special, they should discuss.

Su Huan is the same as usual, her short hair has not changed for thousands of years, and the arrogance and maturity on her face are still the same as before. As for Ji Qingling, she is also the same as before, she doesn't like to talk like Su Huan, although her face is not so cold, she will not talk to Xia Xiao with a smile. The two are extremely abrupt in the crowd, and standing together is a perfect match.

"Let's talk as we go!"

Xia Xiao walked on the side of the two women, inadvertently glanced at Ji Qingling's chest, and then lowered his head. It's so empty, it's almost like yourself. Noticing his gaze, Ji Qingling said angrily:

"Be serious!"

Xia Xiao's cultivation speed today is faster than usual, and the tasks that can only be completed in the evening on weekdays will be completed in the afternoon, and it is difficult to think about it if you are not in a good mood. But seeing that Ji Qingling is more serious, Xia Xiao will definitely not be able to smile anymore, so he restrained his rare smile, and listened to her:

"In less than a week, the first church will leave the dynasty. My father wrote to me that a large army had arrived in the west, and that the armies of the southern and arching nations had been sent to join our army. The imperial army will also act this time, and the cultivators who participated in this battle are nearly 10,000 people from all over the country. Also, your father and eldest brother will rush to the western front from the north with the Xia family army as a support force after confirming that the head church will leave the dynasty. ”

"This can be called a battle of life and death, the saint said in the court that he would personally conquer and follow the soldiers to resist the army of the Southern Shang, although he was denied by the minister, but he has gone to the second line of defense. If Nanshang attacks Xiyang, he will stand at the head of the wall and beat the drum himself, and then draw his sword to kill the enemy, and live and die with Great Xia!"

This topic was too heavy, but Xia Xiao didn't panic and asked:

"How many lines of defense are there?"

"Two roads, if Xiyang is breached, the Nanshang Iron Cavalry will step on the land of Great Xia. ”

Xia Xiao has seen the power of Nanshang Iron Cavalry, and he has a strong deterrent and destructive power. But if you want to set foot in Daxia, it's not that simple, at least you have to cross over yourself and your father's eldest brother!

In fact, Xia Xiao's feelings for his family and country are far less serious, he admires those who die for the country, and those existences are real heroes. He also fantasized about being a person loved by all people, but he didn't have that determination, and he was unwilling to sacrifice himself for everyone. He is very selfish, but his father and eldest brother want to protect Daxia, and there is still his mother and his own home in Daxia, and he will definitely devote himself to it.

The battlefield is nothing more than corpses and war, no matter how tragic the scene is, he has seen it, there is nothing to fear from crows and broken flags, and the blood of Chengbo is not worth mentioning......

When Xia Xiao imagined that waiting for the picture, Ji Qingling turned his elbow and touched him.

"Are you listening?"

You go on. ”

"We have only 800,000 troops, and with the reinforcements from the southern country and the shooting column, it is only 1.2 million. The military strength of Nanshang is still unknown, and all our spies have died in foreign lands, and they will not be able to correct their reputation in this life. However, according to the information, NCB has a well-trained and extremely strong army, with 500,000 men. This army also has a rare contingent of cultivators, an unknown number of cultivators, who can be personally cultivated by the prince and his lieutenants, and has already made a name for itself in the military council, and is known as the Shenwei Army by Nanshang. It's a pity that the people who participated in the military meeting were all important officials of Nanshang, and it was difficult to collect intelligence, otherwise they would not be so embarrassed. ”

"With an army of half a million people and cultivators alone, we are about to catch up with the strength of our side. If we don't go back, I'm afraid we won't be able to fight this battle!"

The last time the Southern Shang Empire attacked Great Xia, Su Huan participated in the battle as a cultivator in the imperial capital. But that time, NCB didn't show all its strength, just to test the water, and anyone could see it. But this time they won a big victory, and this time they will not lose, they will only expand the scale again.

Su Huan was particularly worried about this war, his cold eyes were full of worry, and the gap in strength had been reflected in the bright side. To put it mildly, if Nanshang dares to claim to be the first in the world, he can only be a man with his tail between his legs. The difference in the comprehensive national strength of the two countries is too great, not to mention standing up rampant, and even their own things are almost impossible to protect!

Walking into the town, they meet another group of people, worried about everything. Walking on the street at this time, even if you are more than ten meters away, you can look at each other or catch a glimpse, which will inevitably attract attention. Xia Xiao and Su Huan Qingling noticed them the same, and when they looked at each other, although there was no hostility, they were only pretending to be harmonious.

In the academy, they don't have to fight to the death because of their own positions, and fighting is not in line with what the other party did some time ago.

For two years, the southern merchants helped Su Huan and Ji Qingling with the instructors, and Xia Xiao even saved Wang Ling from pirates in the East China Sea. That is the grace of life, the Changbai Mountain Range and his party are still angry for it, even if Wang Ling has always had some opinions about Xia Xiao, and even envied him and was jealous of him, but Wang Ling did things above board, and it was impossible to make a knife in the back. But this is the acute point of the problem!

If Nanshang and Daxia's juniors fight openly and secretly like they just entered the academy, they will not be entangled because of the war at this time, after all, it has nothing to do with themselves, they can't kill them in the academy, and they will kill them again when they go to the battlefield. But they became companions in this wonderful and dreamy place of the academy, and it was okay to have a small fight, but it was okay to frustrate their spirits and teach each other a lesson. If it really hurts the killer, I'm afraid I can't be ruthless.

Wang Ling walked towards Xia Xiao and asked:

"How's it going?"

"Let's go the day after tomorrow, I have time to spend a few more days on my predecessors, so I don't have to be in such a hurry. ”

"Okay, then early the next morning, I'll see you outside the courtyard of the predecessor of Dimuri. ”

Ji Qingling and Su Huan, who spoke, nodded and wrote down the time. Wang Ling was worried, and looked at Xia Xiao, the meaning in his eyes seemed to be clear, that was the resoluteness that he would not spare on the battlefield, and it was also an apology. The kindness to Xia Xiao has not been repaid, but this battle is about to begin, they came to the academy to practice, it is to contribute to the empire, and now is the time when the empire needs themselves, they must go back.

Xia Xiao understood, there was no blame, when Wang Ling bowed his head, he even raised his hand and put his palm on his shoulder, which made his scalp tingle suddenly, I don't know what it meant.

The two passed by, Wang Ling was stunned, and the southern merchants all gathered, and as his gaze looked at Xia Xiao and the three of them who left in the distance, he felt the difficulty of Wang Ling at first. They all know what Xia Xiao did. If the first time he rescued Wang Ling was the intention of the instructor, then the second time he avenged Wang Ling and tore off his opponent's hair to return a tooth for a tooth, which only represents him personally. Such seemingly vulgar actions made them more or less grateful in their hearts, and they also admired their great strength. But if you go to the battlefield, it's really life and death. And judging from the current situation, Great Xia will lose and be flattened!

The Southern Merchant had already begun to mourn this young talent in advance, as if he had fallen into the present. But Xia Xiao didn't feel that way, he felt that Daxia would not necessarily lose. Until the results come out, everything is undecided, and everything is likely to be reversed.

Xia Xiao asked Su Huan:

"The day after tomorrow, I will go and plead with my seniors, let us go back?"

"Well, we have to go back to this battle, but the instructor told me that there had been a similar situation before, but the Dimuri seniors did not pass, and they were very resolute. So we are going to go together, and fifty-two people intercede together, and the chances of success are greater. ”

"Although there are few regulations in the academy, I am afraid that it will be difficult to change the things that the predecessors have identified. If you want to intercede, you have to be prepared with sufficient rhetoric. ”

"Wang Ling said that he is ready, and he only needs us to unite the southern country and the shooting column. ”

"Is everything fine over there?"

Xia Xiao didn't worry about Xie Yi, after all, he called his second brother out, even if something happened in the south and he didn't support the Great Xia Dynasty, Xie Yi would worry about it first. The facts did not disappoint him, he just hoped that Yin Zhiping would not go wrong.

Back at Xiaobailou, everyone was here, and everyone stood around Xia Xiao Yin Zhiping and Xie Yi, waiting for them to make a decision. Xia Xiao looked around at everyone, although he had just learned about everyone's plan, but his identity and strength made him have to take a stand. As the first person to enter the Venerable Realm, Xia Xiao has been in the academy for two years, and he has done many things for four years. Therefore, he has the right to represent the people and even command them!

Prestige and influence are directly proportional, Xia Xiao said:

"The Academy is a haven where everything on earth can be isolated, but we must not forget our roots. This battle is about Great Xia, the Southern Kingdom, and the Shooting Column. After the death of Great Xia, Nanshang will immediately cross the eastward column and go south to the south, and everyone will not end well. Therefore, this battle cannot be lost. We didn't have enough power to make waves when we came, but after two years of training at the Academy, we are more capable of changing the tide of battle than before, and it's time for us to go back and protect our homes and our families and lands from being violated. ”

The more Xia Xiao said, the more excited he became, he had fought many times, but it was the first time he had faced a battlefield of this scale. He has seen some scenes in movies, but there is still a difference between being immersive and his own experience.
