Time passed by quietly. Two days had passed since the battle at the central mountain range.
In these two days, the North Region Army had stationed 500,000 soldiers at the central mountain range. In addition to the 300,000 soldiers at the peak, there were 800,000 soldiers stationed at the central mountain range.
Lin Yun and Long Woo-seok split into two groups. One guarded the peak, and the other guarded Tai Liang City.
After two days of investigation, the North Region Army learned about the deployment of the Assassination Society at the other four peaks.
Each peak was garrisoned with 300,000 soldiers from the Assassination Society. There were 1.2 million soldiers in total. They were more powerful than the North Region Army stationed at the central mountain range.
However, the Assassination Society did not seem to be in a hurry to attack. In these two days, although there were some small skirmishes between the two armies, there were not many casualties.
This time, besides Lin Yun, Long Chenfeng, and the other ten Wu Huangs, there were also Hu Heixin and Meng Jun. Their strength was not to be underestimated.
Now, all the important figures of the North Region Army were gathered in the tent, waiting for Lin Yun's next instructions.
"Lord Lin Yun, it has been two days, and the enemy has not moved. Are they waiting for something?" After the last incident, Meng Jun had changed the way he addressed Lin Yun. He had already regarded Lin Yun as his Boss.
Everyone looked at Lin Yun. Indeed, in these two days, the Assassination Society had not moved, whether it was the army in the basin or the army in the central mountain range.
Lin Yun was worried that the Assassination Society would split their forces to attack Tai Liang Sect. Therefore, he divided the North Region Army into two. One was in the central mountain range, and the other was in Tai Liang Sect.
The Assassination Society obviously had more people in the central mountain range than them. However, the Assassination Society had not moved, which was strange.
Lin Yun said casually, "They may be waiting for reinforcements."
"Reinforcements?" Everyone looked at each other, and then at Lin Yun.
"The eastern border is almost completely under the control of the Assassination Society. If there are no surprises, the Assassination Society should be waiting for the surrounding forces to come to the basin before attacking us in one fell swoop." Lin Yun pointed at the other sects on the map. They were all under the control of the Assassination Society.
"This won't do!"
"We don't have an endless supply of soldiers …"
"Lord Lin Yun, what should we do?"
For a moment, everyone was discussing spiritedly.
There were only so many soldiers in the Northern Region, and all that could be gathered had already been gathered. There were only a few million soldiers left.
However, the Eastern Region was the base camp of the Assassins Association. They had an endless supply of soldiers. If they waited until the Assassins Association gathered their army, it would be difficult for them to take down the central mountain range.
"We need to take down at least the other two peaks in a short period of time, especially these two." Lin Yun pointed at the two peaks closest to the basin on the map.
Everyone understood that these two mountains were very high above sea level. If they occupied these two mountains, they would be able to attack the Basin Assassination Association's camp from above.
However, in the past two days, they had also tried to attack these mountains.
Every time they advanced, the other three peaks would reinforce them.
In the end, the Northern Region's army would return empty-handed, wasting the lives of their soldiers.
Lin Yun rubbed the space between his eyebrows. The long period of thinking and setting up the formation had consumed a lot of his energy.
The atmosphere in the tent suddenly froze. These uncouth men only knew how to kill the enemy, but they didn't know how to arrange the formation of troops. They also couldn't give Lin Yun any good suggestions.
At this moment, Long Chenfeng walked to Lin Yun's side and said in a low voice, "Deputy Commander, I've brought the person."
Lin Yun, who had been rubbing the space between his eyebrows, suddenly relaxed. He said, "Call him in."
After a long time, Long Chenfeng walked in with a scholarly man.
The man was Zhong Shudao from the Ruyi Sect. After seeing Lin Yun, he bowed respectfully. "Long time no see. How have you been, Lord Lin Yun!"
"You people from the Ruyi Sect actually have the face to come and see me." Lin Yun snorted coldly.
Everyone had a blank look on their faces. They didn't know who Zhong Shudao was, nor did they know what had happened.
"Lord Lin Yun! This time, it was our Ruyi Sect's fault, which caused Miss Jiang Yan to suffer. I hope that Lord Lin Yun is magnanimous enough to forgive us! "Zhong Shudao knelt on one knee.
That day, they had been ambushed by the Dark Sky Sect on the way, but they had still been able to beat back all the people from the Ruyi Sect with their weapons.
When they arrived at the Dark Sky Sect, what they saw was a stretch of ruins.
Later on, they found out that Lin Yun had brought Yasuo and the other man and destroyed the entire Dark Sky Sect.
Now, Lin Yun's name was also very famous in the northeast region, and he was as famous as the four major sects.
"Where's Zhao Yingnan?" Lin Yun asked.
Zhong Shudao's face turned pale. He sighed and said, "I didn't find her."
Lin Yun stood up and slowly walked in front of Zhong Shudao. He lowered his head and looked at him, "I've already obtained the true blood."
"Your Ruyi Sect has wasted so many of my weapons. How are you going to compensate me?"
Zhong Shudao took a deep breath, but he didn't look too flustered.
Before he came, he had already expected Lin Yun to say this. Thus, he said firmly, "Since we haven't caught the true culprit, Zhao Yingnan, then Shudao is willing to exchange his life for hers."
"I only hope that Lord Lin Yun won't vent his anger on the Ruyi Sect. Shudao is willing to use his death to appease Lord Lin Yun's anger."
"Your life?" Lin Yun looked at Zhong Shudao and said with a smile, "Do you think that your life is valuable?"
A self-mocking smile appeared on Zhong Shudao's face. He thought to himself, 'Lin Yun doesn't even care about the thousands of lives of the Tian Yin Sect, let alone a mere Level 5 Wu Huang.'
However, in order not to let Lin Yun vent his anger on the Ruyi Sect, nor did he want the Ruyi Sect to follow in the footsteps of the Tian Yin Sect, Zhong Shudao braced himself and said, "Although it's not valuable, Shudao can only die."
"I don't care about your life." Lin Yun shook his head and continued, "I only need you to leave the Ruyi Sect and join my Tian Xuan Sect. Then, I'll spare your life and the Ruyi Sect's life. How about it?"
The crowd was in an uproar. Join the Tian Xuan Sect?
Now that the Tian Xuan Sect had Lin Yun, their reputation in the Northern Region was already on par with the Dragon Tiger Sect. This was a good job that many people would fight to the death for.
"No!" But unexpectedly, Zhong Shudao rejected it without any hesitation, "Sect Head has saved my life before and I owe him a debt of gratitude. Although Shudao is a scholar, I know how to repay kindness. "
"Since that's the case …" A trace of fierceness flashed in Lin Yun's eyes. He raised his right hand and aimed it at Zhong Shudao's head.
Zhong Shudao closed his eyes. Before he came here, he had already prepared himself to die generously.
He only hoped that his death could appease Lin Yun's anger.
