Zhennan City:
Venerable Liu Nian went to look for Long Wanyu. Long Sanqian went to report to Jinmu Of Silla.
Sima Changkong led Gu Hai's group to stay. Gu Hai and Sima Changkong chatted and drank tea in a small courtyard.
"Your Highness is holding a banquet tonight to welcome Mr. Goode. Let me tell Mr. Goode about Pojun's army first," Sima Changkong said with a smile.
"Right!" Gu Hai nodded.
"Pojun is a heaven-grade zither cultivator. First, he can control one million zither figurines. You have seen it before," Sima Changkong said as he sipped his tea.
"One million bronze figurines, all peak Nascent Soul Realm cultivators. They are very strong, and there are more than one million of them. They are invincible when attacking cities?" Gu Hai recalled.
"Indeed, invincible, truly invincible. Back then, with Long Wanyu's help, we found all the spies and slandered Mo Yike, putting Mo Yike in a difficult situation. Long Wanyu's arrival helped us a lot, resulting in a record of seven victories and one defeat," Sima Changkong said Solemnly.
"Your Highness mentioned this to me before."
"Right. Your Highness personally went to Nine-Five Island to show your sincerity. The problem we are facing is the Army Destroyer. The Army Destroyer's one million qin terracotta soldiers can attack the city, and it won't take long for them to break into the city. However, it is a good thing that we have a way to deal with them! "
"Oh?"
"You also saw the 'Book Dao' earlier. In my army camp, there are also some experts of the Book Dao. My Sima family's Yellow Spring Law Destruction Scripture also shines brightly. As long as the guqin figurines break into the city, they will immediately enter the rules of the Book Dao and be restricted by the rules of the Book Dao, making them unable to escape!" Sima Changkong explained.
Gu Hai nodded.
"But the figurines are too agile. Unless they barge in themselves, it's hard to do anything to them. Although we have ways to resist, we can't move an inch. We can't get out. Not only the figurines, but also the Les Miserables played by Pojun!" Sima Changkong frowned.
"Tragic World? We've seen it before. Back in Silver Moon City, it enveloped an entire city. There's no way to escape," Gu Hai said with a frown.
"Yes, the Fairy Wan'er's Tragic World. Heh, back then, the Fairy Wan'er was a guest at the residence of the Lüyang Of Gojoseon and gave this song to Pojun. So …" Sima Changkong said bitterly.
"The army didn't dare to take a step out of the city. Otherwise, they would lose their five senses and become deaf and blind?" Gu Hai said in a low voice.
"That's right! If the army couldn't get out of the city, how could they advance? So we … Heh, although it's not honorable, it's nothing. We sent assassins! "Sima Changkong said in a low voice.
"Oh?"
"They went but never returned. They never came back. Many people went, including an expert from the Kai Tian Palace! "Sima Changkong said solemnly.
"An expert from the Kai Tian Palace?" Gu Hai raised his eyebrows.
Sima Changkong nodded. "Kai Tian Palace. Heh, after entering Pojun's camp, there was no sound. There wasn't even any sign of struggle!"
"Lüyang?"
"No, Lüyang stayed in the camp and didn't come out. There should be an expert in Pojun's camp. According to our repeated investigation, it should be a Longevity Master!" Sima Changkong said solemnly.
"Oh?" Gu Hai raised his eyebrows slightly.
Gu Hai remembered that Long Wanqing and the Unborn Man had mentioned in the letter that Lüyang Of Gojoseon had a Longevity Master. Did that Longevity Master take away Long Xiaoyue's three souls?
"I heard that there are less than ten Longevity Masters in the world! How …? "Gu Hai frowned.
Less than ten people, how could there be one in Lüyang Of Gojoseon's camp?
Sima Changkong smiled bitterly. "You're right. There are only eight Longevity Masters in total. Four White Robed Longevity Masters and four Black Robed Longevity Masters. There have been only eight in the world for thousands of years! As for the Unborn Man, well, I don't know what's going on. However, there are only eight Longevity Masters in the Da Qian Celestial Dynasty that can be passed down! However, there is one in Pojun's camp! "
"Facing Pojun, ordinary soldiers can't go out of the city, and experts can't do anything either?" Gu Hai said in a low voice.
"Yes, that's why His Highness wants you to solve Misery!" Sima Changkong said in a low voice.
Gu Hai frowned slightly. Let Gouchen solve it? How?
The two chatted for a while. In the evening, Gu Hai brought Gouchen, Gao Xianzhi, and Mu Chenfeng. The four followed Sima Changkong to South Town Hall.
At this moment, the two rows of South Town Hall were filled with banquets. A large number of civil and military officials were also in the hall. They seemed to have been waiting for Gu Hai for a long time.
The Jinmu Of Silla was sitting at the main table in the north of the hall.
The Jinmu Of Silla was dressed casually in a gorgeous brocade robe. She had a broad face and a dignified aura.
This was also the first time Gu Hai saw the Jinmu Of Silla. Although she had a smile on her face, there was a great sense of majesty coming from far away.
"Greetings, Grand Marshal. This is Hall Leader Gu Hai!" Sima Changkong bowed slightly to the Jinmu Of Silla.
"Gu Hai greets Marshal Daewon of South Town Hall!" Gu Hai bowed slightly.
"Mr. Goode is too polite. This marshal has long heard of Mr. Goode's great talent. It's a pity that I have not had the chance to meet you. To be able to meet Mr. Goode today, this marshal is very pleased. Mr. Goode, please take a seat!" The Jinmu Of Silla said with a smile.
The attendant immediately led Gu Hai's group to the first table on the left side of the hall.
Gu Hai and the other three sat down.
Gouchen's eyes lit up when he sat down. He looked at the delicious food on the table and picked up his chopsticks.
"Mm!" The civil and military officials frowned.
We haven't even touched our chopsticks yet. We've been waiting for you. You're going to start eating without even greeting us?
"Gouchen!" Gu Hai said in a low voice.
Gouchen's expression froze. He reluctantly put down the piece of meat on his chopsticks, but his eyes were fixed on it.
"Mr. Goode, this is a toast to you. Thank you for your help in dispersing Lü Yang's Dragon Tribe army!" Jinmu Of Silla raised her glass and smiled.
"Thank you, Marshal!" Gu Hai raised his glass in return.
All the civil and military officials raised their glasses and drank together.
The wine was emptied in one go. The atmosphere in the hall also relaxed.
"Let's eat!" Gu Hai said to Gouchen, who was beside him.
"Ah woo! Ah woo! "Gouchen quickly picked up the food.
"Mr. Goode, what do you think about the war between our two armies?" Jinmu Of Silla smiled.
"Marshal, you're wise. I won't say anything else!" Gu Hai shook his head.
"I heard that Mr. Goode has a grudge against Lü Yang. That's why he destroyed the Gengjin Sect, destroyed the dragons?" Jinmu Of Silla looked at Gu Hai.
Gu Hai smiled bitterly and said, "It's an irreconcilable grudge!"
"Is it because of Long Wanqing and Long Xiaoyue?" Jinmu Of Silla said in a low voice.
"That's right!" Gu Hai said with a serious expression.
"Xiaoyue is my younger sister. She's the most intelligent one among all my younger sisters. She was also the closest to me. When I found out that she died at the hands of Lüyang Of Gojoseon, I was the first to ask His Holiness for help in avenging her. That's why the Zhennan Daewon is here today. It's a pity that Long Wanqing … Sigh! "Takeshi Ryūshin sighed softly.
"Thank you, Grand Marshal!" Gu Hai said sincerely.
"Heh, Mr. Goode, I've read about you. You're unparalleled in your intelligence and methods. Why don't you come with me to destroy Lü Yang's army and avenge Long Wanqing and Long Xiaoyue?" Jinmu Of Silla invited.
Gu Hai nodded. "That's exactly why I came with you this time!"
"That's great. I have Legio VI under me. How about I let Mr. Goode command it for the time being?" Jinmu Of Silla immediately said with a smile.
"Command Legio VI?" Gu Hai was slightly confused.
"That's right. Legio VI is a group of brave and skilled soldiers. They just lack a wise commander. Mr. Goode, why don't you help me command Legio VI? That way, we can destroy Lü Yang's army in the shortest time possible! "Jinmu Of Silla said Solemnly.
Gu Hai frowned slightly, but he didn't say anything.
Command Legio VI? It was true that he would immediately gain control of a large number of troops, but this wasn't what Gu Hai wanted. Gu Hai was the emperor of a country. He could work with you, but he couldn't submit to you.
The Elite Hall Master was just a guest of Da Qian. He wouldn't submit to anyone. Did he have to be your subordinate after joining your army?
However, Jinmu Of Silla's tone was sincere. Perhaps Jinmu Of Silla didn't think highly of the emperor of Dahan. However, even if others didn't think highly of him, it didn't mean that he could ignore them.
"What do you think?" Jinmu Of Silla said with a smile.
After a moment of silence, Gu Hai smiled and said, "Grand Marshal, do you trust me that much?"
"Of course!" Jinmu Of Silla said with certainty.
Gu Hai smiled bitterly and said, "Grand Marshal, thank you for your trust. However, since you trust me, I have a suggestion. I hope you don't mind it!"
"Oh?"
"I, Gu Hai, am used to being idle. I haven't led an army for a long time. I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to lead it well, so I stopped! Grand Marshal said that Legio VI lacks a wise commander. I would like to recommend someone. What do you think? "Gu Hai said with a smile.
"Hmm?" Jinmu Of Silla frowned slightly.
In the hall, all the civil and military officials looked at Gu Hai in surprise.
Grand Marshal is kind enough to make you the commander of Legio VI, but you don't want to accept it?
"Mr. Goode recommended someone, so it shouldn't be bad. Who is it?" Jinmu Of Silla asked curiously.
"Gao Xianzhi!" Gu Hai said with a deep voice.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Gao Xianzhi immediately stood up and said respectfully.
All the officials looked at the middle-aged general in confusion. They thought that he was Gu Hai's follower.
"Jinmu Of Silla, this is my trusted subordinate, Gao Xianzhi. Grand Marshal of Legio VI, I can let Gao Xianzhi take charge of the helm!" Gu Hai said Solemnly.
"Wow!"
All the officials in the hall were in an uproar. Recommend one of your subordinates?
Grand Marshal is already very kind to let you, an outsider, take charge of Legio VI, but you're not satisfied and want to recommend one of your subordinates? Are you looking down on our army?
Some of the officials stared at Gu Hai.
Jinmu Of Silla frowned and looked at Gao Xianzhi.
Jinmu Of Silla didn't say anything, but a burly man with a long beard suddenly jumped out.
"Gu Hai, how dare you! The Grand Marshal treats you like a national hero, but you dare to neglect the Grand Marshal? Are you humiliating us? "The burly man glared at him.
"You are?" Gu Hai frowned.
"I am the current commander of Legio VI, Bai Lizhan!" The burly man glared at him.
"Oh, so it's General Bai Li. Ha, why are you so sure that I am humiliating you? Which eye of yours saw me neglect the Grand Marshal?" Gu Hai said in a deep voice.
Jinmu Of Silla didn't say anything. She drank her wine and narrowed her eyes as she watched quietly.
"It's not that I neglect the Grand Marshal, but you want to send a servant to lead Legio VI?" Bai Lizhan glared.
"The Grand Marshal needs a wise man. As long as he can lead the army and surpass you, isn't that enough?" Gu Hai smiled.
"Him? A servant? Has he ever participated in a war between cultivators? "Bai Lizhan shouted.
Gu Hai looked at Gao Xianzhi and signaled Gao Xianzhi to answer.
Gao Xianzhi took a deep breath and suppressed the nervousness in her heart. She knew that the Emperor was training her.
"General Bai Li, I have only ever led a secular army!" Gao Xianzhi took a deep breath and said.
"Only led a secular army? You have never participated in a war between cultivators? You have never participated in a war between cultivators, and you dare to overestimate yourself and want to lead Legio VI? "Bai Lizhan shouted.
"The Grand Marshal needs a wise man, not a boorish man!" Gao Xianzhi replied indifferently.
"Boorish man? Haha, you are just a brat who is still wet behind the ears. How dare you call me a boorish man? "Bai Lizhan glared.
"General Bai Li, war is not a matter of words!" Gao Xianzhi said indifferently.
"Bastard!" Bai Lizhan glared and seemed to explode.
"Bai Lizhan!" Jinmu Of Silla said.
"Grand Marshal, this brat doesn't know his place. Let me teach him a lesson!" Bai Lizhan suddenly shouted.
"Hmm?" Jinmu Of Silla frowned and said.
"Grand Marshal, I am not talking about using force. This brat is so arrogant. I want to show him a sand table deduction and let him know that the army of cultivators is not something that he can take for granted. The lives of every soldier in Legio VI are precious. We cannot let him ruin them!" Bai Lizhan shouted.
Jinmu Of Silla frowned and looked at Gu Hai.
"Sand table deduction?" Gu Hai looked at Jinmu Of Silla in confusion.
"Sand table deduction is a type of treasure. You can enter the treasure with your consciousness. Both sides will lead a group of soldiers of various types. They will fight against each other and determine the winner. This is a treasure for learning how to fight!" Sima Changkong explained.
"Gu Hai, didn't you recommend your subordinate? Why don't you let me try? I will give him a thousand soldiers. What do you think? "Bai Lizhan sneered.
"Grand Marshal, since General Baili is interested, why don't we let Gao Xianzhi try?" Gu Hai smiled.
"Sure!" Jinmu Of Silla nodded.
Not far away, Baili Zhan revealed a slightly complacent smile.
Gu Hai looked at Gao Xianzhi and said, "Gao Xianzhi, Bai Lizhan is provoking you to accept the challenge. Don't underestimate him!"
Gao Xianzhi's expression became serious. She immediately understood what Gu Hai meant. Bai Lizhan looked reckless and harmless, but he was shrewd and could not be underestimated.
"Yes, Your Majesty! I will not let Your Majesty down! "Gao Xianzhi said respectfully.
"Kuang!"
Not far away, a few attendants carried over a huge jade platform. Many talisman scripts and arrays were carved on the jade platform.
"Come, brat. This is your first time using this Battlefield Deduction Platform, right? Learn from me. Place your palm on the edge and immerse your consciousness into it!" Bai Lizhan said with a cold smile.
Gao Xianzhi nodded and walked to the center of the hall.
The two stood on both sides of the jade platform and placed their hands on it.
"Buzz!"
A light suddenly appeared on the jade platform. The two's consciousness entered it and slowly closed their eyes.
"Boom!"
A dazzling light suddenly appeared on the jade platform, projecting a battlefield of mountains and hills.
On the two ends of the battlefield, one side was Gao Xianzhi leading an army of one hundred thousand cultivators. On the other side was Bai Lizhan leading an army of one hundred thousand cultivators.
A Battlefield Deduction Platform was about to begin.
Gao Xianzhi versus Bai Lizhan!
Takeshi Ryūshin's Corps Commander versus Gu Hai's Corps Commander!
