"Junior Chenglong is deeply honored to be able to discuss important matters with the two Patriarchs today." The grey-robed youth smiled and cupped his hands towards Kong Xiangwu and Gao Herui.
"Haha, Nephew Liu is too polite. I've long heard that Nephew Liu is talented and has a dignified appearance. Now that I've seen you today, you are indeed extraordinary. You will surely achieve great things in the future. "Gao Herui laughed.
"With Nephew Liu leading the Great Shuo army, it seems that the Liu Clan will soon regain its former glory and even surpass it." Kong Xiangwu also revealed a smile.
"The two Patriarchs are too kind. The Liu Clan is already a thing of the past. This nephew is only leading a few remnant troops. If it wasn't for the sake of avenging my late father, I wouldn't have dared to show myself." The grey-robed youth chuckled, but in his heart, he was cursing the two old foxes.
"There is no need for Nephew Liu to be so modest. It's all thanks to Nephew Liu's strategy that we were able to besiege the Huangfu Clan's army in the city with such a small price. The Huangfu Clan will be finished once this army is annihilated. At that time, the continent will be in chaos, and it will be the perfect opportunity for the Liu Clan to make a comeback. "Gao Herui chuckled.
"Patriarch Gao Herui is too kind. Nephew Liu does not have such ambitions. It was all thanks to the two of you that we were able to besiege the Huangfu Clan's army. I merely came up with an idea, so I don't dare to claim credit for it. "The grey-robed youth's eyes flashed with a strange light.
"Alright, let's not just compliment each other. Although we have already besieged the Huangfu Clan's army for several days, their morale and condition are almost exhausted. It is time to launch an all-out attack. "Kong Xiangwu said.
"That's right!" Hearing this, Gao Herui revealed a pondering expression and nodded.
The grey-robed youth's eyes flickered as if he was thinking about something.
Kong Xiangwu glanced at the grey-robed youth and said, "Judging from Nephew Liu's expression, could it be that you don't think so?"
"Patriarch Kong Xiangwu is correct. The Huangfu Clan has been besieged for several days, so it is indeed a good opportunity to wipe them out in one fell swoop. However, I feel that there's no need for us to forcefully attack. Perhaps we can use other methods to eliminate the HuangFu Clan's army with the least amount of casualties. "The grey-robed youth said.
"Nephew, what brilliant plan do you have? Why don't you tell me?" Gao Herui's eyes flashed when he heard this.
Kong Xiangwu raised his eyebrows and showed some interest on his face.
"I'm sure the commander of the HuangFu Family knows their current predicament better than us. If we continue to drag this on, they will be completely annihilated in the city. As long as their commander has a brain, he will definitely understand this. "The grey-robed young man pondered for a moment and said.
"Nephew's words mean that the HuangFu Clan's army will definitely think of a way to break out?" Gao Herui's eyes flickered as he asked.
"Yes. Although it's risky to break out of the encirclement, it's much better than being trapped in the city. At the very least, both sides will be heavily injured, and the HuangFu Family will have more time to gather their forces." The grey-cloaked young man said.
"That makes sense. According to what I know, the commander of the HuangFu Clan's army is Huangfu Yupo. This person is meticulous and will definitely choose to break out of the encirclement after considering the pros and cons." Gao Herui slowly said.
Kong Xiangwu also nodded and looked at the grey-cloaked young man with a glint in his eyes.
"Then according to nephew's estimation, when will the HuangFu Clan choose to break out?" Gao Herui asked again.
"This nephew feels that it should be soon. It might be tomorrow, or at the latest, the day after tomorrow. The HuangFu Clan will definitely make a move. According to my estimation, there is a high chance that they will come from the south, which is the direction of our Liu Clan's army. We only need to continue attacking Yanfeng City on the surface and secretly lay down a killing formation in the south. When the HuangFu Clan's army breaks out of the city, they will be trapped like a turtle in a jar. At that time … "The grey-cloaked young man's eyes flashed with a cold light.
Gao Herui and Kong Xiangwu were both quick-witted people. In a blink of an eye, they understood the cause and effect of the gray-robed young man's words. Their eyes sized up and they nodded slowly.
"Nephew's thoughts are truly meticulous and thorough. Huangfu Yupo will most likely make a move like this. Let us arrange according to nephew's suggestion. "Gao Herui chuckled.
"Patriarch Gao He is overpraising us. According to Patriarch Kong Xiang's suggestion, we can still annihilate the HuangFu Clan's army by launching an all-out attack. However, we will also suffer great losses." The grey-cloaked young man revealed a humble smile and said.
"Nephew doesn't need to be humble. We will follow your plan." Kong Xiangwu chuckled.
"Since that is the case, we will start laying down the formation tonight to prevent the HuangFu Clan from acting in desperation." The grey-cloaked young man stood up with a strange glint in his eyes.
He naturally had his own reasons for making such a suggestion. First of all, no one would give up on the large amount of resources and treasures left behind after the annihilation of an army of several hundred thousand. Even the powerful Kong Xiang and Gao He were no exception.
As a result, the two armies naturally wouldn't think too much about the greatly weakened HuangFu Clan's army after being trapped in the formation and would swarm forward together.
As long as he tampered with the formation, the HuangFu Clan's army, which had already fallen into despair, would launch a desperate counterattack.
When that time came, he would naturally have a way to refine the mountainous pile of demonic corpses in the formation into demonic corpses.
"Alright, let us immediately make our preparations."
Gao Herui and Kong Xiangwu stood up at almost the same time. Just as they were about to walk out of the hall, their expressions suddenly changed.
At the entrance of the hall, an azure-robed figure had appeared out of nowhere. His body was shrouded in azure light, making it impossible to see his appearance.
"Who are you? When did you come in? "A Profound Understanding realm middle-aged man beside Kong Xiangwu shouted angrily when he saw this.
Gao Herui and Kong Xiangwu looked at each other and saw a trace of shock in each other's eyes.
The person before them was actually able to conceal himself from the senses of all the high-ranked devils present and infiltrate this place alone. Just this courage and this concealment ability was enough to be called heaven-defying.
Furthermore, they couldn't sense the cultivation of the person shrouded in azure light at all. The moment their divine senses came into contact with the other party's body, they were immediately repelled by an invisible force.
Liu Ming ignored Kong Xiangwu's question and looked at the gray-robed young man with a strange glint in his eyes.
He chuckled softly and suddenly waved his hand. A ball of black light shot out from his hand and transformed into a black light screen in the blink of an eye, enveloping the entire hall.
Kong Xiangwu and Gao Herui's expressions changed.
"Playing tricks, you're courting death!"
At this moment, the middle-aged man beside Kong Xiangwu bellowed. His body shone brightly with azure light, and two bulging lumps of flesh protruded from his back. With a 'puchi' sound, a pair of azure wings grew from the lumps of flesh, each of them as green as jade.
With a flap of the wings, the middle-aged man's figure suddenly turned into a faint shadow.
The next moment, he used some kind of escape technique and crossed a distance of 20 to 300 feet in an instant, appearing beside Liu Ming in a flash.
The middle-aged man's palms transformed into a pair of azure claws at this moment. His five fingers were abnormally sharp and flashed with a frightening cold light. He suddenly grabbed at Liu Ming, leaving a long azure mark in the air.
In the blink of an eye, the middle-aged man's azure claws pressed against Liu Ming's chest, but Liu Ming didn't seem to react.
Kong Xiangwu was slightly relieved to see this scene.
He knew better than anyone that the middle-aged man's claws were extremely sharp. Even ordinary magic treasures could be torn apart with his bare hands, let alone the body of a devil.
"Beast Transformation Secret Technique …" Liu Ming raised his eyebrows and turned to look at the middle-aged man.
The next moment, he didn't see how he moved, but the sword pouch at his waist flashed gently.
Several streaks of sharp golden sword light appeared beside him and flickered a few times at an incomparably fast speed.
The middle-aged man was just about to exert his strength and stab into Liu Ming's body to dig out his heart when he suddenly felt a heart-wrenching pain in his hands.
His wrists loosened, and both of his hands were severed at the wrist. They were chopped into several pieces, and fresh blood gushed out.
"Ah!" The middle-aged man let out a muffled groan. He was greatly shocked and his body was shot backward.
Liu Ming snorted coldly and flicked his finger. A small golden sword shot out and caught up with the middle-aged man in the blink of an eye. It coiled around his neck at lightning speed.
A golden shadow flashed on the middle-aged man's neck, and his head rolled off his neck. The headless corpse fell heavily on the ground and rolled a few times before it stopped moving.
The middle-aged man's Primordial Spirit had long been invaded by the sword qi and was completely obliterated.
A series of unforeseen events happened as fast as lightning. In the blink of an eye, a Metaphysic Realm cultivator from the Kong Xiang clan was decapitated. He had died without even knowing it.
Kong Xiang Wu and Gao Herui's expressions changed drastically, and their eyes were filled with disbelief.
Liu Ming waved his hand and the golden sword blurred. It turned into a golden sword orb and returned to his sword pouch.
Following which, he calmly raised his head and looked at the people in the hall before walking towards them.
Gao Herui's expression changed. He took a step forward and cupped his hands. "May I know who you are, and what business do you have here?"
"There's no need for you to know my name. You only need to know that I'm here on behalf of the HuangFu clan," Liu Ming said indifferently.
Hearing this, everyone's expression changed again.
The grey-robed young man standing at the back trembled and a fierce light flashed across his face.
The body of the mustached man beside him suddenly glowed with grey light. He shot toward the roof of the hall and a black light shot out from his hand, piercing the black light barrier above the hall.
Liu Ming's expression sank. He coldly snorted and waved his hand. A blue sword shadow flew out from his hand and appeared above the mustached man's head.
The blue sword shadow flashed and grew several times bigger. It turned into a huge blue sword that was several tens of feet in size and slashed down toward the mustached man.
The bearded man was startled, and the black light changed direction to meet the huge blue sword head-on. At the same time, a green light flashed in front of him, and a thousand-feet-tall Dharma Idol emerged. It crossed its arms in front of him to block the attack.
He had just finished doing this when the huge blue sword slashed down and collided with the black light.
"Peng!"
The black light immediately dissipated and revealed the magic treasure inside. It was a circular gear magic treasure that was several feet in size. It was still rotating with a buzzing sound.
But in the next moment, the black gear shattered into pieces and turned into a pile of black fragments that scattered in all directions.
