Lindu City!
The Da Qian army had defeated the defending Daewon City, which was the closest city to Lindu City.
In Lindu City, Takeshi Ryūshin invited Gu Hai for a private discussion after celebrating the victory of the three armies.
There were only three people in a pavilion.
Takeshi Ryūshin, Sima Changkong, and Gu Hai.
"Lindu City has been conquered. I just invited a group of outstanding officials to a banquet. This time, I invited Mr. Goode here to discuss with Mr. Goode how to conquer Lindu City!" Takeshi Ryūshin looked at Gu Hai with a smile.
Gu Hai's ability had been proven by all the things he had done over the years. Jinmu Of Silla had experienced many things, but she knew that she couldn't subdue Gu Hai. However, this campaign against Daewon City wasn't just about conquering Daewon City. It was also a chance for her to perform in front of His Holiness. Since all the armies had set off, Jinmu Of Silla naturally hoped that she would be the most outstanding one.
"Your Highness is wise. I'm slow-witted. Following Your Highness, it's enough to cheer from the sidelines!" Gu Hai smiled.
"Mr. Goode is slow-witted? How am I supposed to accept this? "Sima Changkong immediately laughed.
"Mr. Sima, you're too kind!" Gu Hai shook his head.
"Mr. Goode is too humble. This time, Your Highness only brought me with you. Even Long Aotian wasn't allowed to come. Your Highness wants to discuss with Mr. Goode how to deal with Daewon Imperial Dynasty. I hope that Mr. Goode won't be stingy with his guidance. Besides, isn't Mr. Goode going to deal with Xiyu The Great and avenge the people of Dahan? Why, you're about to face Xiyu The Great. Why is Mr. Goode holding back? "Sima Changkong said with a smile.
Gu Hai looked at Sima Changkong and said with a bitter smile, "Your Highness, do you think I have the ability to deal with an Imperial Dynasty?"
Takeshi Ryūshin frowned slightly. Obviously, he didn't think that Gu Hai had the ability to do so.
Sima Changkong immediately said with a smile, "I'm not sure about other people, but since Mr. Goode has sent out his troops, he must have a plan. That's why I hope that Mr. Goode won't be stingy with his guidance!"
"Mr. Sima thinks too highly of me. What can I do? Everything depends on Your Highness! "Gu Hai looked at Takeshi Ryūshin.
Sima Changkong smiled bitterly and said, "Your Highness, beating around the bush with Mr. Goode is just asking for humiliation. Why don't we talk about it first?"
Gu Hai smiled bitterly and said, "Mr. Sima, this is too much for me!"
Takeshi Ryūshin took a deep breath and said, "Mr. Goode, do you still remember the Sky Splitting Axe?"
"Oh? You still have the Sky Splitting Axe from Daqiansheng? "Gu Hai looked at Takeshi Ryūshin without any surprise in his eyes, as if he had already guessed it.
Takeshi Ryūshin nodded. "His Holiness sealed two forces in the Sky Splitting Axe, so there are only two strikes. The first strike was used once in Zhaoge City. Do you remember?"
Gu Hai of course remembered the last time. When the Sky Splitting Axe was used, Xiyu The Great turned into a zombie with the Bloody Hell Saber in his hand. Except for the fact that he didn't mobilize the power of a state, he was at his best. However, Xiyu The Great was defeated in the end, and he was injured so badly that he couldn't fight back.
The two powers of the Emperor of the Great Qian Dynasty sealed in the Heaven-Opening Axe were used together? There was still one more strike?
"Does Mr. Goode think the remaining strike can deal with Xiyu The Great?" Sima Changkong asked with a frown.
"Even if Xiyu The Great recovers, Xiyu The Great had the Bloody Hell Saber last time. This time, Xiyu The Great can mobilize the power of a state in Daewon. Can he borrow the power of a state?" Gu Hai said with a frown.
"Yes, the Sky Splitting Axe only has one strike left!" Takeshi Ryūshin nodded.
"If Xiyu The Great can mobilize the power of a state, he will definitely win! However, after he mobilizes the power of a state, it's hard to determine who will win! Besides, Xiyu The Great has been defeated by the Sky Splitting Axe once. Next time, he definitely won't stand there and let the Sky Splitting Axe hit him. If the Sky Splitting Axe can't hit Xiyu The Great, then … "Sima Changkong said with a frown.
"Secondly, in the capital, almost all the spies in important positions have been picked out by Mo Yike. They can't cause trouble in Daewon in the imperial court!" Takeshi Ryūshin said in a low voice.
Gu Hai frowned slightly. Takeshi Ryūshin and Sima Changkong had already said so much. Gu Hai didn't need to beat around the bush anymore.
"The Sky Splitting Axe? When Daqiansheng borrowed the Sky Splitting Axe from you, didn't he think about your safety? What if …! "Gu Hai said in a low voice.
"Of course His Holiness thought about it. If the Sky Splitting Axe can't hit Xiyu The Great in one strike, I can activate the self-defense function of the Sky Splitting Axe. The Sky Splitting Axe can form a shield to protect me and prevent Xiyu The Great from breaking the shield. The shield can last for ten days. Within ten days, His Holiness will know and come to save me!" Takeshi Ryūshin said Solemnly.
"Oh? The shield of the Sky Splitting Axe? "Gu Hai was a little surprised.
"That's right. So I have to make some things clear. If you fail, you better stay close to me if you want to be safe. Otherwise …!" Takeshi Ryūshin shook his head.
"Xiyu The Great can't break the shield?" Gu Hai narrowed his eyes.
"Definitely can't!" Takeshi Ryūshin nodded.
"Without Daqiansheng's power, Xiyu The Great can't break the shield formed by the Sky Splitting Axe. Now, there's still a portion of Daqiansheng's power sealed in the shield. Isn't that …?" Gu Hai smiled.
"Inject His Holiness's sealed power into the shield of the Sky Splitting Axe? Cover the entire capital? "Sima Changkong's expression suddenly changed.
"Trap Xiyu The Great in the shield? But it's only for ten days. Do you want His Holiness to come here personally? Since His Holiness is here personally, why do you need me to deal with Xiyu The Great? "Takeshi Ryūshin frowned.
"No, it's enough to trap the capital for ten days!" Gu Hai narrowed his eyes, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.
"No, the Sky Splitting Axe can only trap Xiyu The Great. After ten days, Xiyu The Great will be free again. At that time, we will be in danger. His Holiness's sealed attack has been used. The Sky Splitting Axe can't deal with Xiyu The Great anymore, right? "Takeshi Ryūshin said worriedly.
"Your Highness, if you trust me, then do as I say. I will deal with Xiyu The Great!" Gu Hai said with a smile.
"Set up a formation?" Takeshi Ryūshin looked at Gu Hai in confusion.
Gu Hai shook his head.
Dayou Hall.
Xiyu The Great sat on the dragon throne.
The officials stood respectfully, but most of them were frowning.
"Your Majesty, it's been half a month. After the Da Qian army broke into Lindu City, they stopped advancing!" An official said with a frown.
"Your Majesty, the Da Qian army must be afraid to come to the capital and stopped at Lindu City. Your Majesty, I am willing to lead the army to Lindu City and attack the Da Qian army!" Immediately, a soldier shouted.
Xiyu The Great frowned and fell silent.
"Takeshi Ryūshin, what has Gu Hai been doing recently? Is there any news?" Xiyu The Great asked in a low voice.
"Your Majesty, Takeshi Ryūshin and Gu Hai have never appeared!" An official said bitterly.
Gu Hai had guessed that Takeshi Ryūshin had the Heaven Splitting Axe, and so had Xiyu The Great. Just as everyone had guessed, Xiyu The Great was waiting for them to come. He could mobilize the power of the country. At that time, so what if he had the Heaven Splitting Axe?
As long as he was in Daewon territory, Xiyu The Great could attack from a distance. However, that was only the power of fate. Even if he attacked, its power wouldn't be at its peak. If his attack was destroyed by the Heaven Splitting Axe, then the morale of the two armies would be greatly different.
"Don't go out? Hmph, can't I move the capital to Lindu City and then kill you? "Xiyu The Great's face was gloomy.
Xiyu The Great had been waiting for half a month. During this time, he had been thinking about how to kill Takeshi Ryūshin and then personally lead the army to the Da Qian Celestial Empire.
However, this should have been done more than ten days ago, but it was delayed again and again.
Xiyu The Great felt extremely uncomfortable. This was a battle intent that couldn't be extinguished. If this continued day after day, his fighting spirit would slowly be depleted.
Move the capital? Although there would be less fate if he moved to Lindu City, it would be enough for him to deal with the Heaven Splitting Axe.
Just as Xiyu The Great was about to move the capital …
"Your Majesty, they're moving. The Da Qian army is moving toward Lindu City!" A guard immediately rushed into the main hall.
"They're coming?" Xiyu The Great narrowed his eyes.
"Your Majesty, I'm going to stop the Da Qian army!" A general shouted.
"No need. Let them come. Hmph!" Xiyu The Great snorted coldly.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" The officials answered.
Qin Zibai figured out Xiyu The Great's thoughts from Mo Yike, so he didn't say anything.
After the court session, Qin Zibai quickly went to the prison and told Mo Yike everything he knew.
"Half a month? They're finally moving out? "Mo Yike raised his eyebrows.
"Yes, Mr. Mo, do you know why? Why did it take half a month? Our people sent news that Lindu City hasn't changed at all in the past half a month! "Qin Zibai was confused.
Mo Yike frowned and pondered, slowly pacing back and forth.
"Hasn't changed at all? That's impossible. Gu Hai and Sima Changkong are both experienced and astute. How could they have wasted half a month there? That's impossible. Something must have happened in the past half a month, and something very important! "Mo Yike said with a gloomy face.
"Very important? But …! "
"Did anyone go in or out of Lindu City in the past half a month?" Mo Yike frowned.
"How could we know? Lindu City has already been breached! "Qin Zibai smiled bitterly.
Mo Yike frowned and pondered for a while. "What's there to prepare in half a month? And to prepare in person? Ha, that's Gu Hai's style! But there's no trace at all? What tricks does he have? "
"Mr. Mo, you don't know where to start?" Qin Zibai asked worriedly.
Mo Yike shook his head. "I've met so many people, and there's only a few that I can't figure out. Sima Changkong is better, but this Gu Hai is always unexpected and always hits the nail on the head. I don't know where to start! "
"Then what should we do?"
"Let's work backwards. If they want to defeat His Majesty, they can only rely on one possibility, the Sky Splitting Axe! But without Daqiansheng controlling the Sky Splitting Axe, it won't be effective. Especially since His Majesty has just experienced the Sky Splitting Axe. It won't work on His Majesty again, "Mo Yike said with a frown.
"Since they can't defeat His Majesty by force, what else can they do?" Qin Zibai asked worriedly.
"Attack the heart? Right, attack the heart! That's what Gu Hai is best at. If he can't defeat His Majesty, he'll definitely attack the heart. Let me think, what's His Majesty's weakness? "Mo Yike said anxiously.
