Li Xiang didn't answer. He looked up at the sky with a calm expression, "It's getting late, can we go?"
Qingqiu nodded, took off a doll hanging from his waist, and threw it into the sky.
The doll grew in the wind and turned into a giant golden bird.
"Chirp!" The golden-winged Peng looked down at Qingqiu, whined, spread its wings, and quickly fled into the sky.
Qingqiu did not expect this to be the case, and said angrily: "Fellow Taoist Li, please wait here, I will go and catch this idiot."
As soon as he finished speaking, a rope flew out, wrapped around the neck of the golden-winged peng, and pulled down. The golden-winged peng could not resist and fell straight down.
Bang.
The huge body of the Golden-winged Peng fell to the ground, splashing smoke and dust hundreds of meters high.
Li Xiang clasped his hands together and said, "My Buddha is compassionate." He walked step by step onto the back of the golden-winged roc.
Qingqiu was stunned.
This golden-winged roc is a third-order and fifth-grade ancestral monster, but in Li Xiang's hands, it is powerless to parry.
"Is this kid still hiding his strength?"
"But from the second level to the third level, talent alone is not enough, it also requires a lot of resources."
"A small place like Yangcheng has no conditions for a third lease return."
Qingqiu was confused and glanced at the young man on the back of Jin-winged Peng with complicated eyes.
"Forget it, who doesn't have some secrets?" Qingqiu no longer hesitated, stepped on the back of the golden-winged roc, patted its head, and ordered: "Let's go!"
The golden-winged roc spread its wings, turned into a golden stream of light, and flew north.
And at this moment.
In Yangcheng, on the tarmac in front of the city lord's mansion, the roar of engines sounded.
"Do you really want to go?" Su Bing looked at his daughter, his eyes full of reluctance.
Su Jinnian adjusted her gold-rimmed glasses, nodded, and looked north, "There are too few ferocious beasts here in Yangcheng. If I want to conduct further research, I can only go to Kyoto City."
"Tongzhou Prefecture can also do it." Su Bingdao.
Su Jinnian shook his head, "The battlefield is in the north. The corpses and specimens of the ferocious beasts are sent to Kyoto City immediately. Tongzhou Prefecture only has scraps that are not needed there, which is of little significance."
"Well, if you want to go, I can't stop you," Su Bing sighed and frowned, "But the situation is unclear now. If the defense lines in the north cannot be defended, Kyoto City may be..."
The northern defense line collapsed and the monster army attacked, with Kyoto City bearing the brunt.
Su Jinnian comforted, "There are four gods of war and thirty-six immortals in Kyoto City. The top combat power in the entire Kyushu Kingdom is gathered there. If Kyoto City cannot defend it, then who in the entire Kyushu Region can escape?"
Where did it fall?"
Su Bing clenched his fists and looked up at the sky, with a lingering haze in his eyes.
Su Jinnian was silent for a moment and said, "It's getting late, I should go."
The helicopter engine roared and flew into the sky.
Su Bing watched the helicopter disappear from sight, then sighed quietly and said to himself, "Oh, are you going for that guy Li Xiang?"
The old housekeeper came up behind him and said, "Young lady is devoted to the study of ferocious beasts and has no interest in the relationship between men and women."
Su Bing asked: "Then why does Li Xiang want to go to Kyoto City as soon as she leaves?"
The old housekeeper was silent for a moment, "Maybe, that boy made the lady see something."
Su Bing: "What?"
Old housekeeper: "Hope."
…
"Miss, we have to go to Zhuma City 800 kilometers away first. The Ninth Division that is going to rotate to the north will pass there. We can go north with them." The accompanying guard reminded loudly.
Su Jinnian was sitting next to the cabin door, and the air flow picked up the wind and ruffled her long hair.
Su Jinnian looked at the primitive jungle below, stunned.
After a while, a huge crater with a diameter of several thousand meters appeared below.
There are also traces of battle all around.
"Is that guy fighting the Tree Demon King here?" Su Jinnian thought, as if he saw the scene of the young man facing the huge Demon King alone.
Soon, the helicopter flew away from the battlefield.
Su Jinnian closed the hatch and collected his thoughts.
She opened her tablet and carefully read a research report on the bloodline of ferocious beasts.
In the era of returning to our ancestors, the primitive forest is surrounded by dangers.
Once you leave the city, you lose the protection of the high walls.
Yangcheng is hundreds of thousands of kilometers away from Kyoto City. Even a third-level peak immortal cultivator cannot traverse such a vast distance.
And Su Jinnian is just an ordinary person.
The three guards who went with her to Kyoto City included only one Qi Refiner and two warriors.
Only by joining the Ninth Division, which rotates to the north, can they reach Kyoto City safely.
Four hours later, the helicopter arrived at Zhuma City.
Su Jinnian stayed in the city for a day. On the next morning, she was awakened by a rumbling sound.
The guard opened the door and came in, saying: "Miss, the Ninth Division has arrived."
When Su Jinnian came outside the city, he saw towering trees falling down in front of him.
Two small mountain-like monster elephants opened the way.
Behind the demon elephant are dozens of tanks lined up in four columns.
Behind it, there is an endless line of troop transport trucks.
This is a torrent of steel.
The ferocious beasts around him had already retreated far away.
The long queue slowly stopped.
The soldiers responsible for logistics began to transport fresh water, food and other supplies from the city.
Su Jinnian stopped a soldier and revealed his identity and purpose.
"I need to ask the commander for instructions." The soldier said with some embarrassment.
"Sorry to trouble you."
A few minutes later, a lieutenant colonel came over and said to Su Jinnian: "You can come with us, but we are a bit slow."
Su Jinnian smiled lightly, "It's okay."
The officer walked in front, and the guard whispered, "Miss, why do I feel weird?"
Su Jinnian said, "What's weird?"
The guard said, "The Ninth Division is the elite of our Tongzhou Prefecture, but I see these soldiers, all of them look gloomy and dejected, as if they have lost a battle."
The officer in front suddenly slowed down and sighed.
Su Jinnian frowned slightly. A few days later, she learned the reason from the soldiers around her.
Since last year, 36 state capitals across the country have begun to dispatch troops to the north for training.
But more and more troops are being transferred, and fewer and fewer troops are coming back.
Only then did people realize that this was not "troop training", but that the Zhenbei Army lacked combat power and needed to mobilize troops from various state capitals for support.
Last time, Tongzhou Prefecture sent the Eighth Division to the north.
But in just four months, the Eighth Division of 18,000 men was down to only 9,000 men, and nearly half of them were lost in battle.
This time, it's the Ninth Division's turn.
Nearly 50% death rate.
No one is sure whether he will come back alive.
The entire Ninth Division was filled with a depressing atmosphere.
At this time, the country's thirty-six state capitals, thirty-six armies, and nearly half a million people were rushing across the vast and desolate land, gathering towards the north.
Su Jinnian was sitting on a military jeep, the wind mixed with the smell of gasoline blowing her long hair.
She looked up to the sky.
Behind a huge transport plane, a formation of fighter jets left a long trail like comb teeth in the sky.
On the ground, the torrent of steel is crushing towards the north.
