Blue Sky Star Territory, Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, General Helm of Qi Palace.◇↓
The rising sun shines with bright connotation on the fairy mountain. In the mist of fairy mist, white cranes are flying, and the green grass is green, creating a happy and contented scene of cave heaven and paradise.
The deacons on duty got up early, cleaned the courtyard as usual, took care of the spiritual birds and beasts, and raised the treasures of heaven and earth.
Diying also finished her day of meditation and came out of the room.
"How is the battle situation on Yunmingxing?"
The major event in the Qi Palace at the moment is undoubtedly Master Yuan Yi leading the army to fight for the Yunming Star, and he is also very concerned about it.
"I just received a report last night, saying that a general attack involving tens of millions of people will be launched this morning. It is expected that there will be a fierce battle now, and relevant news will be sent soon." A deacon on duty who was serving nearby replied.
Di Ying counted his fingers and said secretly: "Now that Chen Shi has passed, it's almost time."
Although long-distance communication is not easy, one force can always afford the price. The status of the army is reported every day, and contact will not be lost so easily.
Whether the result is good or bad, you will know soon.
So Di Ying said: "Go and invite Daoist fellows Guanggou and Jingcang, as well as Elder Shi, Elder Yao, Elder Xi, Elder Jiang..."
He named many senior officials of the Qi Palace and asked them to come here together to wait for the news and discuss the next step.
The deacon on duty responded and went to do it immediately.
When Di Ying saw this, he sighed inaudibly and shook his head secretly.
He had no choice but to send people to invite so many high-level elders. Because he failed in the last expedition to the Nine Dragons Territory, his authority in the palace dropped sharply. The elders from all sides were extremely dissatisfied due to the heavy losses and began to have other thoughts.
"After Patriarch Qian Sheng issued the edict, he has been silent and has not shown up at all. He has not asked about the outcome of the conquest of the Nine Dragons Territory. Now some people in the palace want to put the blame for the defeat on me, so we need to find a way to deal with them.
"
At this moment, Di Ying was a little troubled and a little worried.
What was bothering him was that the battle in the Kowloon Territory was a complete failure. The senior officials in the palace were very dissatisfied, and all subordinates were strongly opposed, which made him miserable. Fortunately, the four words "no matter the cost" were said by the ancestor Jinkou. Any loss is okay.
Using these four words as an excuse, those below want to use this as an excuse to push him out of office, which is wishful thinking.
What is worrying is that his authority has been loosened after all, and the ancestor never shows up again for some unknown reason. There is no way to persuade them with the help of the ancestor.
"We have to wait and see the outcome of the Yun Mingxing battle first. If we can win, we will have a way to regroup. If we lose... we can only seek changes as soon as possible."
"It can't go on like this."
Diying secretly made up his mind.
Soon after, Emperor Ying arrived at the General Assembly Hall, and Guang Gou and others also listened to the summons and came one after another.
Everyone exchanged greetings, and then quickly started talking about today's battle on Yunming Star.
The people who were ordered to go out this time were the direct members of the chief helmsman. Master Yuan Yi was also a long-time cultivator of the Dharma Protector Hall. He had a good reputation for making decisive decisions. He was very courageous and had great prestige among the worshiping masters. All the elders agreed that he should be the leader.
commander in chief.
Guang Gou saw the hidden worry in Diying's expression and comforted him: "Fellow Taoist, don't worry too much. We have already increased our troops last time and allocated tens of thousands of puppet troops to fight against the puppet army in the Kowloon Region. With our
The strength of the weapon palace and the magic weapon refined will never lose to the opponent."
He indeed has enough reasons to have full confidence in the magic weapon produced by himself.
Because they are from the Lingbao Sect and are members of the Artifact Palace, specializing in refining and repairing magic weapons for the Immortal Alliance, and managing heavenly materials and earthly treasures.
In terms of weaponry, how could he lose to a newly rising master from another country?
"Tiannan Artifacts is very good at it, especially when it comes to puppets and weapons... No matter the grade or intelligence, it has unique advantages." Elder Shi shook his head and sighed after hearing this.
A hint of anger flashed in Guang Gou's eyes: "Elder Shi, don't try to build up other people's ambitions or destroy your own prestige!"
He was becoming more and more dissatisfied with this old guy. Since the last time he dealt with the Shi family's children, he has always spoken against him. He even preached such nonsense that the enemy is powerful and invincible, and gesticulated in the affairs of the palace.
But this Elder Shi is, after all, a member of the upper echelon. Even if he is a master of weaponry, he is not easy to deal with.
After hearing Guang Gou's sarcastic words, Elder Shi sighed softly, seemingly helpless, but did not change his opinion. He still said: "In my opinion, we should try to get in touch with the Nine Dragons Territory to see what they want this time.
, if it is just to vent their anger, it is enough to continuously capture Baosheng Realm and Yunming Realm. They can completely digest these two realms and make up for the losses last time. Peace talks should be the priority."
Guang Gou was furious when he heard this: "Elder Shi's words are wrong. How can our Qi Palace negotiate peace with such a powerful enemy?"
Elder Shi said, "It's not that we can, but we have to! Do you think, your venerable master, that our Palace of Artifacts will win this battle?"
Emperor Ying said solemnly: "So, Elder Shi is opposed to the war? But attacking the Nine Dragons Territory at any cost is a major policy set by our ancestors and cannot be changed."
Elder Shi said: "Old Ancestor has clearly seen thousands of miles away and can attack the Nine Dragons Territory, but this is not the way to attack. If according to the arrangements of the Grand Manager and Venerable Guanggou, we will damage ourselves before the enemy's vitality is hurt, I will
How can the Qi Palace gain a foothold in the heavens? It is better to slow down its attack, regain its strength, seize the initiative, and then strike with a thunderous blow. By then, this small area will be able to respond to the situation and break through, and then we will be able to show off the skills of our Qi Palace!"
When everyone heard this, they immediately understood what Elder Shi was thinking.
"Elder Shi's words also make sense."
"How powerful is our Qi Palace, how can the Kowloon Domain be compared with us?"
"Now they are lucky enough to have a half-step immortal master, but the forces under his command have not developed much. On the contrary, they are still injured from the last war. Although our weapon palace also suffered heavy losses, in terms of size and recovery ability,
, but it’s much more tyrannical than him.”
"To be forced to fight now is indeed not a good plan. They are barefoot and not afraid of wearing shoes. We cannot accompany them."
"Yes, it is better to follow Elder Shi's plan, slow down his troops, gather strength, and then strike with thunder!"
This is not because everyone is afraid of fighting, but considering the overall situation, Elder Shi's idea does have some truth.
When Emperor Ying and others withdrew their troops and returned from the Nine Dragons Territory, they originally wanted to recuperate, accumulate strength, and start another war.
I just didn't expect that in just three years, the Kowloon Territory would take the initiative to start a war, which made them passive and at a disadvantage.
If we follow Elder Shi's suggestion and negotiate peace first, we will return to the previous plan, but we will only lose two more realms and pay more money.
When Di Ying heard this, he felt secretly resentful in his heart.
How could he not know that what Elder Shi said was reasonable? But to bring it up on this occasion instead of discussing the matter privately was clearly to embarrass him.
With his current position, he can only be the staunchest leader and will never allow anyone to comment! Otherwise, not only will the last expedition to the Nine Dragons Territory be meaningless, but he will also be blamed for the loss of Baosheng and Yunming.
on the head!
What's more, the Qidian family has a great cause, so even if they fight with all their strength, they will only suffer more losses.
With the ancestor's words of "at all costs" as a guarantee, no one can use this to bring him down.
Jingcang, who had been silent for a long time, finally couldn't bear it anymore and said: "Everyone, please calm down and wait for the results of Yun Mingxing's battle to come out before making any plans. It's too early to say this now."
Upon hearing this, the debate in the hall suddenly stopped.
Even Elder Shi had nothing to say, so he sipped the fragrant tea and discussed with several elders nearby, but he didn't know what to talk about.
Not long after, the urgent voice of a deacon on duty suddenly came from outside the hall: "Report! Dear lords, the urgent battle report for Yunmingxing has arrived!"
"Pass it up!" Diying stood up and said with a solemn expression.
After hearing this, everyone became quiet and watched as a deacon rushed in, came straight to Emperor Ying, knelt down on one knee, and presented the jade slip.
"You go down first." Diying waved the man away, then looked around at the waiting crowd, and slowly opened the jade slip in his hand.
A spiritual thought coming from the battlefield, accompanied by the fighting spirit and other complicated emotions, enveloped the hall.
"General Manager, Gong is incompetent... We have lost the battle here!"
"Not only did he fail, but he also feared that the entire army would be annihilated... Gong was so shameless that he just wanted to fight to the death to apologize!"
"Master Yuan Yi, Gong Yongyuan Juezhang..."
"What?" When Di Ying learned about the results of the battle on the front line, his body trembled and he froze on the spot.
"Defeated? And completely defeated, the entire army was annihilated?" Even Elder Shi and others, who were secretly looking forward to the failure of Di Ying and others so that they could take the opportunity to seize power, were stunned.
Guang Gou, Jing Cang and others were so shocked that they couldn't even speak. They were stunned and speechless for a long time.
Everyone did not believe in evil, so they used their spiritual thoughts to throw the jade slip in Emperor Ying's hand to explore its meaning. As a result, they saw scenes from the battlefield appearing there. The army of the Nine Dragons Territory, together with the Qi Palace's own puppet army, were chasing and killing them.
They fought all the way from the battlefield to the rear of the garrisoned army, and were blocked by the river of void energy, making it difficult to escape. In the end, they were besieged and all were wiped out.
On the battlefield, Li Wan stood in the sky with so much energy that the scene captured on the jade slip was blurred and trembling.
Master Yuan Yi almost sacrificed the lives of all his personal guards and used his last ounce of mana to protect it, and then he was able to throw himself into the void, hide in hiding, and send the news out.
In the last scene captured on this jade slip, Li Wan seemed to notice something. His eyes penetrated the void and looked over, as if he was watching the people in the palace across hundreds of millions of miles of time and space.
His lips moved, his loud voice sounded, and a trace of his spiritual thoughts traced back to him.
"The matter of your invasion of the Kowloon Territory has not yet been settled. I will collect the interest today. I will go to the main helm next year and then discuss it with all my fellow Taoists!"
