At this moment, within Wushen Celestial Palace, Zong Shou's laughter had stopped.
Everyone looked at him with weird gazes but he didn't explain anything. He closed his eyes and sat down, entering a meditative state and not bothering about the people around him.
Fuyue's eyes turned around and then he broke into a laugh. He actually turned around and returned to his original seat.
Although he didn't know why Zong Shou was laughing, he knew that there might be a chance for things to turn for the better.
As for Hong Jiuchen and Tanjing, their expressions were filled with shock and bewilderment. In the end, the former laughed coldly.
"Trying to be mysterious!"
Since Linxu City was already broken, then what was there to worry about? The worry on his face disappeared as he closed his eyes and didn't say a word.
Tan Jing's eyes flashed, a mocking intent flashed in the depths of his eyes. He didn't say anything either.
The Celestial Palace instantly became silent once more. However, it was extremely short, just four hours later.
Outside of Wushen Celestial Palace, a Spiritual Light suddenly charged in.
It was a Celestial Realm Cultivator who seemed to be in a rush. With just a flash, he was in the hall.
Looking at the people here, his expression was really ugly as he frowned.
He hesitated slightly and then spoke to the people above. However, he used a secret incantation such that no one could hear what he said.
Who knows what he said but Hong Jiuchen also frowned.
Tan Jing didn't understand. However, shortly after, a Fire Red Spiritual Sparrow flew over from the void.
In just a moment, Tan Jing's eyes were filled with darkness.
Fuyue and the others found it weird but they knew that things had definitely changed.
"What is going on? Why are you being so mysterious? Why do the two of you not dare to speak about it? "
Fuyue scoffed and mocked, "Don't the few of you have numerous eyes and ears here and are well-informed? How long can you hide it for? "
Hong Jiuchen's face was green, his muscles tensed up. Just as he was about to speak, Mufang had already grabbed a Silver Crane from the void.
After closing his eyes for a moment, he looked towards Zong Shou with a weird expression.
"Cultivator Fuyue doesn't need to ask anymore. Two hours ago, Zhuang Yu personally led 30,000 infantry to intercept the enemy in Qingjian Canyon. He fought with Guixuan's 600,000 Iron Cavalry for four hours. He advanced 10 miles and killed 70,000 of them. Zhuang Yu actually personally went to battle and killed three of Brother Hong's Spirit Realm cultivators. His troops are unstoppable and he is in the midst of the battle … "
Fuyue was startled, following which he reacted, "Isn't Qingjian Canyon behind Linxu City? In other words, Zhuang Yu was prepared. Wasn't this person only rank 7? His military strength was 20 times weaker than Gui Xuan's. How is it possible to kill a spirit realm expert? "
Before he could finish his sentence, Fu Yue's expression changed. A dark light suddenly flew into his hand from afar.
After a while, his expression became strange. Then, he laughed and said, "Zhuang Yu, what a good man! He really hid it well. A native of Yuanlian World was actually peak Spirit Realm. He even personally raised up a strong army, the Xuandu Guards? Since that Jiujing didn't die under Cultivator Zong's sword, he will fall to this person. "
He continued, "What a good plan! Qingjian Canyon is such a place where one can only send out 10,000 people. The terrain is uneven and isn't good for cavalry to charge. He first pretended to be weak to lure Xu Cheng in. Then, he used elites to shock the enemy and head on. How amazing! However, who knows what the outcome of this battle will be? Will this Zhuang Yu defeat your Nine Capital Celestial Dynasty? Or was it your general Gui Xuan who turned the tide in the end? "
While he spoke, he looked towards Zong Shou, a weird look flashed across his eyes.
There was admiration, but there was also vigilance and vigilance.
Hong Jiuchen scoffed to show his unhappiness. However, his expression was still calm. The battle at Qingjian Gorge. Although Guixuan suffered a setback, it wasn't to an unmanageable level.
As long as he was careful, it wouldn't affect the big picture.
However, the atmosphere in the hall was becoming more and more suppressive and weird.
Zong Shou was still sitting with his eyes closed. Fuyue smiled and Mufang was startled.
They were all waiting for the situation to change.
They didn't have to wait for long, just two hours. Another ray of dim light appeared in the void.
This time, Fuyue's news was faster. That light directly landed in his hand. His brows rose up and he laughed once more.
"Guixuan has fallen at Qingjian Canyon! 600,000 cavalry, four battles and four defeats. They have scattered and trampled on one another. Half of them are dead! Guixuan's 30,000 troops have advanced 30 miles and killed 200,000. With 2,000 cavalry as the vanguard, they are invincible … "
However, his words were interrupted by a soft 'peng'.
Everyone looked over, only to see that Hong Jiuchen had crushed the wine cup in his hand into pieces.
Fuyue smiled and didn't care at all. He looked towards Zong Shou and continued, "That grade-6 cavalry is under Ruler right? How amazing! "
Zong Shou didn't reply. Fuyue felt a little awkward but he didn't care. Instead, he smiled and drank in a carefree manner.
The collapse of the Guixuan army in Qingjian Canyon meant that the situation in Yuanren World had changed.
Hong Jiuchen and Tan Jing working together might not be able to suppress everyone.
At this moment, the people all had letters that spread over. When they learned that the news was true, their expressions were a little weird.
Hong Jiuchen's eyes flashed like he was thinking about something. Then, he exchanged glances with Tan Jing and stood up, "The banquet has lasted for more than a day and it is time for everyone to leave. Hong Jiuchen sends all of you off … "
"Why do you need to do this?"
A cold voice rang out from the lower end of the hall. "Brother Hong, didn't you invite us here to watch the outcome of this battle? In case you and I do something in the dark. Now that things aren't going well, you want to end the banquet. Aren't you a little too narrow-minded? I, Cha, am not one of your subordinates that you can order me to come and go as you please! "
His voice was firm and filled with an undeniable intent.
Zong Shou opened his eyes for the first time and looked towards the source of the voice. This person was sitting opposite him. It was a male who was as beautiful as a flower, unbelievably handsome.
They all said that the men of the Fox Race were charming but this Asura Race person was even more gentle and beautiful than the Fox Race.
However, the Fox Race mostly had natural illusionary techniques which would cause people to have a good impression of them when they met. The person in front of him was filled with vengeful energy, his gaze sharp and sharp.
Those who were slightly weaker would probably be scared witless in front of him.
This person was Chahou Hu!
Within the hall, apart from Zong Shou, the other person was the weakest. This person's cultivation was the lowest, only at the initial Immortal Step realm.
However, no one in the hall dared to underestimate him.
Even Hong Jiuchen couldn't. His face changed for a moment before he sat down once more.
In the next few hours, news from Yuanren's world seemed to explode, spreading over like snowflakes.
"Kui Xuan is under Jianshan and obtained 200 thousand infantry as reinforcements. Reorganizing the army and dismounting to fight. Using life force to be Zhuang Yu's sharp vanguard, this place is wide and can send 70 thousand troops … "
"Zhuang Yu used 5 thousand red crossbowmen to shoot at the dense formation from 30 thousand feet away. Where the arrows landed, they either died or were injured. In ten volleys, more than thirty thousand people were killed or injured.
"Kui Xuan was helpless and led the troops to counterattack. Zhuang Yu took the chance to use the cavalry to charge, the Xuandu Guards and the 5 thousand red infantry followed closely behind. The 5 thousand crossbowmen cut off the enemy formation and Kui Xuan suffered a huge defeat, losing 70% of the 400 thousand infantry and cavalry! "
"Linxu City is broken and returned to the hands of Xuan Country. Kui Xuan fled in panic! "
Hong Jiuchen clenched his fists tightly, his joints giving out cracking sounds.
Linxu City returned to Great Xuan. Then, after a few days of war, it returned to how it was a few days ago.
The seven countries of the southwest still didn't take a single step back. On the other hand, the forces in his hands had already suffered heavy losses.
Gui Xuan's subordinates also had his elite Dao Soldiers as reinforcements, numbering 30,000.
However, in this battle at Qingjian Canyon, under the charge of Zhuang Yu's 30 thousand infantry and cavalry, 40% of them were lost!
It was a heart-piercing pain that was unbearable.
Now that the war had reached such a stage, it was close to impossible to wipe out the seven countries of the southwest in one fell swoop.
It seemed like they could only end the current situation in a decent manner.
He couldn't help but look with a venomous gaze at the teen who was sitting quietly and not speaking.
This Cloud World Da Qian should have been a rootless duckweed in the Yuanren World. He thought that as long as he made this person promise to follow the rules of the outer region, he would be able to easily chase him away.
However, today, this person had gained a firm footing.
Zong Shou didn't bother about this person's gaze. Instead, he looked closely at the message talismans that came from afar.
Ruoshui followed his instructions and recorded Zhuang Yu's arrangement of troops in every battle, as well as all the dispatching methods and adaptations in battle. Everything was recorded in detail in these talismans.
This was why although Zong Shou wasn't personally on the battlefield, he was able to personally witness those few battles.
"Ambitious and ruthless person, the talent of a general …"
Looking at his troops commanding skills, he was only a little weaker than Ren Tianxing and Zong Yuan, but there wasn't any difference in quality.
Going against the two of them, the chances of victory would be 4-6.
As for the overall situation, the command of troops, between Ren Tianxing and Zong Yuan, he was only weaker than Kong Yao. He was a rare all-rounder talent …
He could be used in a corner and also be able to take charge of an area!
He really couldn't give this person the slightest chance to make him a good minister in governing the world.
Zong Shou couldn't help but have a headache. It was really tough to control such a person.
Shaking his head, Zong Shou tossed this headache to the side. Following this, he raised his head and smiled as he looked at Mufang.
"Brother Mu! I wonder what you've thought about it? Do you remember what we said that day? This chance is hard to come by. If you miss it, you might have such a chance in the future … "
The moment these words were said, the expressions of everyone in the hall changed.
Hong Jiuchen and Tan Jing's gazes were like knives as they stared right at Mufang.
Did this person really collude with Zong Shou?
Mufang was annoyed, he was angry at Zong Shou for what he said. He was also annoyed at the gazes of the few people above.
Just as he was in deep thought, outside of Wushen Celestial Palace. Another streak of light descended. It was yet another Immortal Realm cultivator from the Asura Clan.
After bowing towards Chahou Hu, he expressionlessly looked at the people in the hall.
