"I've really been tricked by Mo Tian."
Liu Ming shook his head. The thought of becoming enemies with the Huangfu Clan in the future gave him a headache.
Huangfu Yupo brought Liu Ming to a high platform in the fortress. At this moment, there were seven or eight Celestial Phenomenon Realm demons standing on the platform. Most of them were at the late-stage Celestial Phenomenon Realm. From their attire, they should be the higher-ups of the Blood Lion Legion.
"Elder Yupo!" These people bowed to Huangfu Yupo.
"Commanders, there's no need to be so courteous." Huangfu Yupo coldly replied.
The seven or eight commanders immediately looked at Liu Ming, who was standing behind Huangfu Yupo, as if they wanted to say something.
Liu Ming stood there expressionlessly, as if he didn't see the gazes that were directed at him.
"This is Liu Ming. Liu is the patriarch of the Quanzhou Qing Clan. He is following the Demon King's orders to follow the legion. He is not an outsider." Huangfu Yupo casually explained.
When the commanders heard this, they exchanged a few glances. There was still some suspicion on their faces. However, since Huangfu Yupo had spoken, they didn't say anything.
"How's the deployment of the legion?" Huangfu Yupo glanced at them and asked.
"Reporting to Elder Yupo, the deployment of personnel has been completed. The strategic resources have also been prepared. Now, we are only waiting for the Demon King's orders. The Blood Lion Legion can immediately head to the battlefield." An extremely tall middle-aged man in purple robes said.
Liu Ming glanced over. Among the seven or eight people present, this middle-aged man in purple robes had the highest cultivation base. His attire was also the most luxurious. It seemed that he was the commander of the Blood Lion Legion, second only to Huangfu Yupo.
"Good. Go to the various parts of the legion and make preparations. When His Majesty gives the order, we will immediately head to the battlefield." Huangfu Yupo's expression turned solemn.
The commanders present acknowledged and flew away. In the blink of an eye, only Liu Ming and Huangfu Yupo were left on the platform.
"Patriarch Liu Ming, what do you think of the Blood Lion Legion's military strength?" Huangfu Yupo looked at Liu Ming with a faint smile.
"The HuangFu Clan is indeed worthy of being called the Myriad Demon Clan. Just a single legion is far stronger than my Qing Clan. I can't even catch up." Liu Ming sighed.
"Master Liu, you're flattering me. I'm afraid there's still some time before the Demon King's transfer order arrives. I'll bring you around and familiarize you with the army during this time." Huangfu Yupo seemed to be satisfied with Liu Ming's answer.
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Elder Huangfu." Liu Ming cupped his hands and replied politely.
Huangfu Yupo then brought Liu Ming and flew towards the center of the fortress. The center of the fortress was divided into eight main roads, each of which had over ten thousand soldiers stationed.
"The Blood Lion Legion has a large number of people, and it's rather troublesome to deploy them. Thus, the legion is divided into eight teams, each with a captain. Patriarch Liu has just met those captains. "Huangfu Yupo pointed at the eight teams below and said to Liu Ming.
Liu Ming nodded slowly. Almost all the demons were cultivators, which was very different from the situation in the Middle Sky Continent. They attached great importance to the evolution of military formations on the battlefield.
Among the ancient books he brought out from the Demon Abyss Tower, a considerable number of them recorded the evolution of various military formations. He also read some of them in his spare time, so he had some knowledge about military formations. The formation model of a legion like the Blood Lion Legion was a kind of military deployment suitable for large-scale battles.
This could avoid the situation where the tail was too big and couldn't be controlled properly. However, if the control of each team was insufficient, it would also cause various problems.
"The eight teams below seem to focus on different things." Liu Ming's eyes moved slightly and said.
"It seems that Patriarch Liu also knows something about the legion? I heard from Ying 'er that you are also a master of alchemy. Patriarch Liu is really knowledgeable. "Huangfu Yupo was slightly surprised, and then said with a little surprise.
"I don't dare. It's just that I've read some books related to military formations, so I know a little bit." Liu Ming said with a smile.
"Patriarch Liu, you don't have to be so modest. What you just said is right. These eight teams are based on the ancient Eight Gate Golden Lock Formation. Each team has its own emphasis. If there's anything wrong with the Liu Family in the future, please give us some advice." Huangfu Yupo seemed to be quite proud of the Eight Gate Golden Lock Formation, and his tone was a little proud.
Hearing this, Liu Ming naturally said that he didn't dare.
The two quickly came to the back of the fortress, where there were dozens of purple giant boats. Each boat was hundreds of feet long, and its surface was full of magic runes and talismans.
"Are these giant boats used to transport the legion?" Liu Ming's eyes moved and asked.
The grade of these giant boats seemed to be faintly at the magic weapon level, but 10 of them looked more peculiar. There were even some black muzzles on both sides, which were quite similar to the giant boat battleship of the Middle Sky Continent's Nature Work Sect.
"These ordinary flying boats are used to transport people, but those 10 are the Sun and Moon Warships of my Huangfu Family. They can be used to transport soldiers, but they can also be used in battle. Among the six legions of the dynasty, only the Blood Lion Legion is allocated these 10 warships. "Huangfu Yupo smiled faintly and said with some pride.
"I see." Liu Ming nodded and said.
"If Patriarch Liu is interested, you can also board the ship and have a look." Huangfu Yupo said.
"That's exactly what I want." Liu Ming laughed. The two figures flickered and landed next to a warship, and they were about to board.
At this moment, two purple escape lights came from a distance and landed in front of them.
"Elder Yupo, the Sun and Moon Warship is the secret of our Huangfu Family. Even some low-level clansmen are not allowed to approach it at will. Isn't it a little inappropriate for you to bring an outsider to board the ship?" A purple escape light flashed and turned into a young man in a purple robe. It was Huangfu Jiangu. He said in a gloomy tone.
The other escape light flashed and turned into the figure of an old man in a purple robe. It was Huangfu Zhantian.
"Elder Zhantian, Royal Highness Jiangu, why are you two coming to my Blood Lion Legion?" Huangfu Yupo frowned and said with a cold face.
Liu Ming looked at Huangfu Jiangu and frowned slightly. He only saw this person once during the crown prince election. Listening to his tone at the moment, it seemed that he was quite hostile to him.
But soon he understood that Huangfu Jiangu was probably a threat because of the crown prince election.
"Elder Yupo, the Sun and Moon Warship is a secret treasure of the dynasty. It's indeed inappropriate to bring an outsider on board." Huangfu Zhantian smiled faintly and looked at Liu Ming.
Huangfu Yupo's eyes moved, and then he snorted coldly.
"Elder Zhantian, don't you know that Patriarch Liu is Ying 'er's fiancé? He will marry into our Huangfu Family soon. How can he be considered an outsider?"
"That will have to wait until Liu marries into our Huangfu Family. As long as Father doesn't officially list him in the family, he is still an outsider, "Huangfu Jiangu said coldly.
Huangfu Yupo's face sank, and a faint cold aura was emitted from her body.
It was indeed inappropriate for her to rashly bring Liu Ming here in order to win him over as soon as possible. After all, Liu Ming and Zhao Qianying hadn't officially become cultivation partners yet, so he was indeed an outsider. However, Huangfu Jiangu and Huangfu Zhantian clearly had an ulterior motive for coming here.
"Elder Huangfu, since this warship is a secret item of the Huangfu Family, I won't be admiring it. I will naturally see the power of this warship on the battlefield in the future." Liu Ming coughed and said casually.
Huangfu Yupo's expression relaxed a little, and she looked at Liu Ming apologetically. Then, she turned to look at Huangfu Zhantian and Huangfu Yupo.
"Elder Zhantian, is there anything important for the two of you to come to my Blood Lion Legion? If there's nothing else, please don't interfere with the affairs of my legion, "she said coldly.
"Hehe, there's no need for Elder Yupo to be angry. This old man is here under the orders of the Demon King to transfer Jiangu to the Blood Lion Legion to assist Elder Yupo." Huangfu Zhantian smiled.
"Isn't His Highness Jiangu always in your Greedy Wolf Legion? Why are you suddenly transferring him to my Blood Lion Legion?" Huangfu Yupo was startled when she heard that.
"This is an order from the Demon King, this old man doesn't know the reason." Huangfu Zhantian smiled bitterly.
"Since it's an order from the Demon King, I will naturally obey. His Highness Jiangu will be appointed as a military advisor in the legion." Huangfu Yupo's eyes flickered.
"Many thanks, Elder Yupo." Huangfu Jiangu bowed to Huangfu Yupo, then turned to look at Liu Ming with a cold light flickering in his eyes.
Liu Ming felt Huangfu Jiangu's undisguised hostility and faint killing intent. He sneered in his heart, but his expression didn't change at all.
Although Huangfu Jiangu's cultivation was slightly higher than his, Liu Ming could even face a Profound Conjuration expert head-on. Why would he care about a pinnacle Celestial Phenomenon Devil?
If Huangfu Jiangu didn't provoke him, he wouldn't mind finding an opportunity to get rid of him.
"Haha, the person has been sent. I will leave His Highness Jiangu in Elder Yupo's hands in the future." Huangfu Zhantian smiled and clasped his hands at Huangfu Yupo. His silhouette flashed and shot towards the distance.
"Your Highness Sangu, the Blood Lion Legion has its own rules. Since His Majesty the Demon King has transferred you here, you must also abide by the military rules." Huangfu Yupo glanced at Huangfu Zhantian, turned around, and said to Huangfu Sangu.
"Yes." Huangfu Jiangu smiled and casually nodded his head.
"Men, bring His Highness Jiangu to rest." Huangfu Yupo frowned and clapped his hands.
A purple-robed soldier walked over and brought Huangfu Jiangu away.
"Patriarch Liu, you should also take a rest. Once the Demon King's order arrives, the Blood Lion Legion will set off." It seemed that because of the uninvited guest, Huangfu Yupo, Huangfu Yupo was a little unhappy. He turned around and said a few words to Liu Ming before clapping his hands. Another soldier responded and walked over.
Liu Ming clasped his hands at Huangfu Yupo and followed the purple-robed soldier.
