"Tsk! What time is it now? The enemy is right in front of us, and you're still thinking about this? "
Princess Li Qi's heart trembled slightly. Her flawless face blushed slightly, and then she said in a delicate voice,
"You've taken a liking to him? Are you thinking about love? Why don't I fulfill your wish and report to Imperial Father to remove your slave status and regain your freedom? Then, you can become Dao companions with him! "
"Hmph! You're blushing, and you still won't admit it? "
The flower slave and Qi Liqi had grown up together. Although they were master and servant, they were actually sisters. They were used to joking around.
"You're so boring! If you dare to spout such nonsense again, I'll tear your mouth apart! "
Qi Liqi was so embarrassed that even her ears were red. She ignored the flower slave and looked deeply at Madam Xu.
"Auntie, did you equip the cultivators with puppet backdoors and formation patterns in the Black Crystal Battle Suits again?"
"How could that be? In your eyes, is Auntie so sinister and vicious? "
Madam Xu denied flatly with an innocent expression. She didn't even blink.
"It's best if you're not!"
Qi Liqi was skeptical, but she said earnestly.
"Such behavior is beneath our Cangwu Royal Family's virtue and grace. As the saying goes, the land under the heavens belongs to the king, and the people who lead the land are the king's subjects! These cultivators are the wealth of our Cangwu Palace in the Yingzhou World. As a descendant of the Cangwu Qi Clan, you must see the big picture! "
"Auntie understands. Don't worry, I won't do anything rash! "
Madam Xu smiled apologetically and nodded.
But her heart was filled with disdain. Little girl, how many times have you been here? How do you know how dangerous this place is? When you face the threat of death, you'll understand that your own life is the most important.
They traveled another two hundred miles.
A nameless valley with a radius of five miles and abnormally dense vegetation was in sight. It was only a hundred miles away.
"Young Master Jiang, we're halfway to success!"
Qi Liqi wiped the fragrant sweat from her forehead and revealed a hint of joy. Her beautiful eyes looked at Jiang Tian with a smile.
"According to my ancestor's information, the Elixir of Immortality should be in this valley. However, this elixir can travel as if it is flying, so it is not easy to find. We still have to put in some effort!"
"What's so difficult about that? I have help …"
Jiang Tian had just said half a sentence.
Madam Xu interrupted and said impatiently, "White Crane Grand Perfected Monarch, take your disciples and stand guard in the sky!"
"Perfected Lord Red Tiger, Senior Sword Maniac, Senior Myriad Poisons, guard the ancient area and prevent the beast stampede from attacking!"
"I will bring people to accompany the princess in her search!"
The Myriad Poisons Heavenly Monarch frowned and said with dissatisfaction,
"I am proficient in both medicine and poison. I should be here to look for the Immortal Herb. How could you make such arrangements? "
"I'm a member of the Dark Parasol Clan's Qi Clan, and I'm the core of this operation. Could it be that you want to go against your orders?"
Madam Xu choked.
Just as Qi Liqi was about to persuade the two of them, the sound of a bugle horn suddenly rang out from all around the group.
Immediately after, a tide of violent demonic beasts rushed over from all directions. Their violent roars caused the trees to explode and the rocks to roll. Their hooves violently stomped on the ground, causing the earth to tremble like the skin of a drum, as if it was about to collapse.
Even in the sky, strange owls with wings that were hundreds of meters long appeared one after another. They were like large dark clouds, densely covering the entire sky. The fierce cries of the birds pierced through the clouds and split the air, causing intense pain in the eardrums.
There were dozens of half-human, half-beast Demon Generals riding on the strange birds. They had already started to transform and had reached the strength of a half-step Nascent Soul Cultivator.
"What? Why are they here in advance? Did the news leak? "
Qi Liqi was shocked.
The Ancient Demon Abyss was too vast. Their team was like a cup of water in the sea. They were not conspicuous at all.
The only possibility was that someone had received the news in advance and had set up an ambush.
"Let's go. Let's end this quickly and rush into the valley. We will leave immediately after finding the Immortal Herb!"
Madam Xu grabbed Qi Liqi and rushed towards the nameless valley with the elite cultivators led by Perfected Lord Myriad Poisons.
"Run! Ah? What's going on!? "
Perfected Lord Black Gull also wanted to follow.
But he suddenly realized that the talisman arrays on his crystal armor were flashing and his Dharmic powers were locked tightly.
"Damn it! The Xu family set up a backdoor and wanted to use us as bait! "
Countless Yong City cultivators, including Perfected Lord Black Gull, screamed as if they had fallen into an ice cellar.
"Ahhh! Save us! "
But after Qi Liqi, Madam Xu, and Perfected Lord Myriad Poisons left, the Yong City cultivators could not withstand it. In an instant, countless cultivators died and became food for the violent beasts!
"Qi Lili, what are you doing!? Why did you set up a backdoor on the crystal armor? Keep them here! "
Qi Liqi stopped and stared at her aunt. She called her aunt by her name and shouted loudly.
"If we don't keep them here, how can we survive?"
Madam Xu was not ashamed at all and said righteously.
"Men die for wealth and birds die for food. They took our reward, so they should die for us! "
Xu Jian was even more dissatisfied and said sourly, "Cousin, why are you so agitated? Don't tell me you like that Young Master Jiang? "
"So what if I like him? Despicable and shameless thing! I'll go save him! Everyone, follow me! "
Qi Liqi shouted and immediately rushed towards Jiang Tian.
"We have no choice but to obey the princess's orders!"
Perfected Lord Myriad Poisons and the others sighed and followed, although they were unwilling.
"Liqi, you're so childish!"
Madam Xu stamped her feet and said anxiously.
"You've been on the battlefield and commanded thousands of troops. On the battlefield, you used a small number of troops to delay the enemy and buy time and space for the main force. Such things happen everywhere. Why are you so soft-hearted now and not thinking about the big picture? "
"Auntie, you've got it wrong!"
Two colorful and enormous phoenix wings appeared behind Qi Liqi's back. She flapped her wings and her speed reached the maximum, like a supersonic fighter jet flying across the sky. She said with her Immortal Will.
"Sacrificing a small number of soldiers for the sake of the overall victory is indeed common on the battlefield. But as a commander, I've never hidden it from them! I respect them and tell them clearly that they will sacrifice themselves. I let them choose whether they want to participate in the operation and whether they are willing to sacrifice themselves for the sake of victory.
"It's human nature to be afraid of death. If they don't want to, we won't force them or despise them at all!
"But it's because we told them everything and they made the choice that they became heroes!
"A warrior is not an animal, not a beast, not an object that you can sacrifice as you wish!"
"Any civilization, country, or world that hides the truth, plays its own kind as idiots, and sacrifices individuals as human shields, no matter what great ideals they have, bright motives and pursuits they have, and no matter what reasons they have, it is not justifiable. They are all despicable and shameless people who are worse than animals!
"You don't know what war is! What a soldier is! "
…
"Guard Guo, your Black Crystal Battle Suit is fine. You can move freely. Why don't you run?"
Surrounded by the Beast Tide, Jiang Tian asked softly with a smile as he looked at Guard Guo, who was trembling in fright at the side.
"I'm going to take you out. I can't run away!"
Guard Guo said firmly.
"Okay. Just because of what you said, I'll send you straight to the clouds from now on!"
Just as Jiang Tian's words made Guard Guo feel baffled. While the mercenaries of Yong City were terrified, Long Tianyu stepped forward.
Long Pojun took a step forward and straightened his back, revealing the demeanor of a Beast King. He sent a voice transmission with his Divine Sense.
"How dare you! Don't you recognize your ancestor? "
"It's Ancestral Patriarch Pojun. He's back!"
The half-beast, half-human Beast Generals were stunned.
Then, they jumped down from the strange owls and knelt in the air. They said respectfully, "Greetings, Ancestral Patriarch Pojun!"
On the ground, the endless Beast Tide stopped and prostrated themselves on the ground, their heads touching the ground as a sign of respect.
"What?"
Qi Liqi rushed back dozens of miles and arrived at the periphery of the Beast Tide. Seeing this scene, she couldn't help but be dumbfounded.
"Who is that kid? He actually forced tens of thousands of wild Beast Tide to submit! Those are half-step Nascent Soul Beast Tide! "
"How did he start? He actually forced tens of thousands of wild Beast Tide to submit! "
Not only that, but True Monarch White Crane, Red Tiger, and Jian Kuang were also shocked.
