Chapter 626: Ready to Move
In the two years that Fang Yan strayed into this secret realm, the situation in South Vietnam has already undergone profound changes, and some things that happened in South Vietnam one after another have made a group of large and small forces that were slowly recovering from the catastrophe have to face a reality, the Demon Gate is not stepping up its invasion of South Vietnam, but this fairy and demon war has actually begun.
Just after the Eight Sects Competition, because of the dialect matter, the Qingyuan Sect and the Lanyue Sect formed a disagreement, originally the two families were just gradually estranged, but it was not enough time for a month, there were several attacks and killings against the disciples of the Lanyue Sect. The victims had no warning at all, and they had no contact with each other, the only characteristic was that they were all disciples of the Lanyue Sect.
The scene of the attack seemed to have been cleaned up, but it would leave a few clues in every place, a few sword marks cut by the spirit sword, or a small piece of cyan clothing, judging from the characteristics of the attacker's exercises, it was very similar to the technique of the disciples of the Qingyuan Sect. Nanyue was in an uproar, no one thought that Qingyuan Sect would take such a fierce revenge and directly attack the other party's low-level disciple, just to avenge the missing disciple called Fang Yan.
What kind of sect is Lanyue Sect, how can the overlord of South Vietnam for thousands of years allow such a thing to happen, of course, he has to come to the door to ask for the guilt. But the teleportation array that went there had already been closed by the Qingyuan Sect, and the people who went there had to fly over day and night, who knew that before the angry Lanyue Sect stewards arrived, there was also news from the Qingyuan Sect that the disciples were attacked and killed.
The method is very similar to what happened near the Lanyue Sect, and the suspicions found from the scene are all directed at the Lanyue Sect, and the reason for this seems not to be difficult to guess, presumably the Lanyue Sect sent a counterattack to the Qingyuan Sect. Outsiders looked at the flowers in a fog for a while, but they didn't expect that the two families of the same eight major sects suddenly pinched each other, and they were really unambiguous in their actions, and they directly killed the other party's disciples.
But the fact is only clearest to the two families, the death of the disciple of the Lanyue Sect before, even the Qingyuan Sect itself has some suspicions that the family in the sect did such an unwise thing in order to vent their anger. But now the death of several Qingyuan Sect disciples immediately made the two high-level leaders react. This is someone deliberately stirring up a relationship between the two families, for no other reason, because even if the Lanyue Sect wants to retaliate against the Qingyuan Sect, it will never be possible so quickly.
The two are so far apart, and there is no teleportation array that can be directly reached, connecting the several teleportation arrays of the two families. It has long been completely closed down by the Qingyuan Sect. It's just that Qingyuanzong didn't publicize this matter to the outside world, maybe the outside world has always thought that the exchanges between them are still fast. It was so quick to make a move in the name of the Moon Sect, but it revealed a flaw.
At first, the two families didn't know which force was doing this, but after they joined forces to set a trap, the behind-the-scenes force surfaced, and it turned out to be several secret strongholds of the Demon Gate, which were planted in the subordinate forces of the two families. This time, they were smart but were mistaken by smart, but they didn't adjust the pace on both sides, but they were used by the two sects, and finally several demon strongholds were uprooted.
But this incident made the South Vietnamese forces frightened. Even the sphere of influence of the eight major sects has been infiltrated by the Demon Gate, and no one dares to say whether there are people from the Demon Sect within themselves. When these large and small forces began to investigate, several sects and family infighting quickly broke out, and the situation became even more confusing for a while, and South Vietnam also became rumorful.
No one knows when these demonic cultivators began to infiltrate these forces, and even now they have been exposed. It's just a part of it, and it's just the tip of the iceberg, and no one dares to say anything about how far South Vietnam has been infiltrated by the Demon Gate forces. Originally, these forces still wanted to see the jokes of the Qingyuan Sect and the Lanyue Sect, but now they can't laugh anymore, and this incident has also alerted all the South Vietnamese monks.
The investigation of the devil's spies is still being carried out in a hurry. Soon it was revealed that the South Vietnamese caravan bound for Zhongzhou had been attacked. This time it was not one or two caravans that were attacked, but the entire trade route to Zhongzhou, almost all the caravans were attacked, all the materials were looted, and there were almost no survivors, only a few people escaped with their lives.
This trade route was arguably the most important material route for South Vietnam in recent years, regardless of the South Vietnamese Alliance. It is still the big and small forces under the name of the alliance, in order to prepare for the immortal and demon war that will start at some point, desperately trading with Zhongzhou and hoarding various strategic materials. If this trade route is cut off, it will be difficult for South Vietnam itself, which has not yet fully emerged from the catastrophe, to withstand the attrition of one or two major wars.
This incident shocked Nanyue even more, the Demon Gate clearly wanted to trap Nanyue to death, and then consume their existing strength little by little, if the Demon Gate succeeded, it would not cost too much in the future, and Nanyue would be able to fight back without any power.
At that time, even if these big forces are well prepared, how can they afford a large number of small sects and family disciples, they only need to fight a few small-scale wars first, and they can cut off the wings of these big forces first, leaving them to fight alone. I think that with the shrewdness of these great sects, they will definitely leave South Vietnam and flee at this time, and they will never stay to defend others.
Those who can come up with such a strategy, I am afraid that only people who are extremely familiar with South Vietnam can handle it so accurately, and this blow did hit South Vietnam's waist and eyes, making these big sects suddenly extremely uncomfortable, and the new alliance leader of the Lanyue Sect is like sitting on wax.
With the current strength of South Vietnam, it may not be enough to protect the smooth passage of the trade route, which is already in the wilderness, and it is a headache to think about how much force needs to be deployed on the long passage to protect it. What's more, the alliance is not monolithic, and even the eight major sects are full of contradictions, who will really think about the alliance.
It seems that only with the help of Zhongzhou's strength, after all, this trade route can also bring them huge profits, but in this way, Zhongzhou's power can justifiably penetrate into the interior of South Vietnam, as the leader of the alliance, Lanyue Sect will have to give up some of its own interests at that time, and no one can say whether it will be controlled by others in the future.
After a chaotic meeting of the so-called alliance, the major and small forces of South Vietnam finally agreed to unite with the forces of Trung Chau and ask them to jointly defend that important trade route. However, the price to pay is not low, each family has to give up a part of the shops and spiritual land, and provide it to several sects in Zhongzhou free of charge, asking them to come from the front of their homes to impact their own interests.
Of course, this also has the advantage, that is, there are a lot more goods in the city of Xianchengfang in South Vietnam, although the local merchants are squeezed very hard, at least a lot of urgently needed materials can be continuously delivered. The battle between immortals and demons is a matter of life and death, and such an important juncture can only be compromised, in fact, if it weren't for the fact that those big sects in Zhongzhou have attached great importance to Nanyue in recent years, even if they are invited, they may not agree.
This matter was finally dealt with, and a few months later, there were successive waves of beasts or monsters in various parts of South Vietnam. The wanton slaughter of remote towns and family territories made a group of small families and scattered cultivators cry bitterly, and panic spread everywhere. Not only that, all kinds of slaughtering families and exterminating clans have also occurred frequently, and even in some immortal cities, there is no peace, and Nanyue is now afraid that except for those sects with a certain strength, there is almost no safe place.
It's hard to find out quickly about something like this. With the situation of the South Vietnamese Alliance and these big sects, they can't think of solving these things. Whether it was a demon cultivator or not has to be said. In short, in the past two years, South Vietnam has been in turmoil, and various internal relations are complicated, and the war between immortals and demons has not started, which has already given people a sense of turmoil.
But something even more shocking happened not long after, in several places that were once close to Xizhou, a large number of Demon Gate disciples were found, and even in several places where the terrain was dangerous, there was also a matter of the Demon Gate building a city there. The pace of the great war is getting closer and closer, and it does not give the people of South Vietnam a moment of respite.
The imminent movement of the Demon Gate naturally aroused great concern from the South Vietnamese Alliance, in addition to the day and night planning between several major forces, stepping up the concentration of their own strength, and at the same time formally asking Zhongzhou for help, who knew that they categorically refused. The reason is high-sounding. said that it was to avoid a full-scale war with the Demon Gate, but South Vietnam was invaded by the Demon Gate, and Zhongzhou would be able to live in peace?
No one knows what Zhongzhou's calculations are, I'm afraid that in the final analysis, it is still the word interests, it is estimated that the current South Vietnam is not worth attracting them to take action, if there is really the kind of secret realm that is rumored. Some people are bound to show up uninvited.
Just when Fang Yan was heading to the Immortal City on the Sea and encountered that terrifying celestial phenomenon on the way, a clear celestial phenomenon also appeared in the sky over Nanyue, and contrary to those immortal people, the Nanyue monks were much more optimistic about it. Because the scene they saw was completely different, at that moment, a large number of aura hurricanes rushed down from the sky, sweeping across the demonic clouds that covered the heavens and the earth. It was also on that night that many places in South Vietnam actually saw the bright moon that had not been seen for a long time.
The sight was certainly encouraging, and the speculation that it sparked spread throughout the land of South Vietnam, and whatever the version, most people agreed that it was a sign of good fortune, and that the South Vietnamese monks, who were almost frightened by the bow, saw a life-saving straw. However, the ancestors of those great sects keenly sensed the extraordinaryness in it, and began to send people to pay close attention to the visions everywhere, as if something big was going to happen here.
At this time, in the sea immortal city where the dialect was located, these immortal people thought the same, thinking that something might happen in the world they were in, but they were not as optimistic as the Nanyue monks, and most of them were full of worry on their faces. Fang Yan hid in it, paying close attention to whether there were any high-level immortal people around, and when he recognized the residence of the immortal person he was impersonating, he immediately rushed there.
Along the way, you will see several storey stone houses, which are not exquisite, but they also look simple and simple. The wide streets are all paved with stones, and there are a lot of immortals coming and going, even after a period of time, tall immortals can still be seen wandering around, which shows that there are many people in the city.
But there are also many things that make him a little uncomfortable, and those who are like him have an extremely low status here. It is not bad to follow behind the immortals like slaves, and many of the human tribes are like demon beasts, chained to the carts, and they are pulling the immortals around the city with all their might.
In front of some merchants, there are several Terrans who are chained, selling the goods in the shop loudly to the monks who come and go, perhaps in the eyes of the immortals, these short Terrans are not much different from demon beasts in addition to being able to talk like them.
This is only what Fang Yan saw when he hurriedly walked on the road, and what the situation of the human race was in this huge immortal city, I am afraid that it is only on the surface. After a rough calculation of the dialect, I feel that the human race in this city is not less than the immortal people, which shows that these human races have also multiplied for many years in this huge immortal city, but they have never become their own masters.
