"Qingshan."
Ruan Yaozhu murmured. His appearance had become much younger, and he looked to be only fifteen or sixteen years old.
Li Qingshan couldn't wait to fully recover and rushed back to Black Cloud City. He smiled at her: "Senior apprentice-sister Ruan, long time no see."
"Li Qingshan! This kid is Li Qingshan? "Some had seen him before, while others hadn't, but they had all heard of his name.
Li Liehuo said in a low voice: "You brat didn't die!?"
Li Qingshan picked his ear and blew lightly: "I won't die even if you die."
"Die … for me!"
Li Liehuo suddenly disappeared from his original position, and his suppressed fiery temper exploded, turning into a ball of fire and pouncing at Li Qingshan.
The temperature rose rapidly, and the direct disciples couldn't help but circulate their mana to protect themselves, guessing that even if Li Qingshan didn't die, he would be heavily injured.
Ruan Yaozhu cried out, wanting to save him, but it was too late.
With a bang, Li Qingshan blocked Li Liehuo's fist with his palm and laughed: "Big senior apprentice-brother's temper is still so big!"
He was as still as a mountain, and the rolling flames couldn't move an inch forward.
All the direct disciples were dumbfounded, wondering if they had seen wrongly. A small inner disciple actually took Li Liehuo's violent fist head on, and he was so calm, holding back his strength.
Li Liehuo suddenly raised his head, and his expression changed several times as he thought of something: "It's you?"
Li Qingshan thought for a moment, and it was probably because of the commotion during the tribulation, so he calmly said: "It's me!"
The Raging Blaze Hall was dead silent, and even a pin drop could be heard. Many pairs of eyes looked at Li Qingshan as if they were looking at a monster.
Even Le Tian was dumbfounded: "Oh my, I knew this kid was extraordinary, a genius. But I didn't expect him to be this talented. He only went through four tribulations for such a long time. "
Li Qingshan gently pushed aside Li Liehuo's fist. All Li Liehuo felt was a tremendous, unstoppable force. He became even more shocked. Even if he had undergone the fifth heavenly tribulation, he would not be able to withstand it. This level of cultivation was simply too terrifying.
Glancing out of the corner of his eye, he saw that Li Qingshan's palm also had a scorch mark. Only then did he feel slightly relieved. When he came back to his senses, he found it even more ridiculous. Not long ago. His cultivation was still far higher than Li Qingshan's, but now he had to carefully confirm whether or not he could hurt him.
Li Qingshan looked around and said in a clear voice, "I'll command the Xuanwu Legion to fight the enemy. Who agreed? Who objects? "
The true disciples looked at each other. No one answered.
Ruan Yaozhu hesitated for a moment before raising her hand. "I agree."
Li Qingshan smiled and said, "Good Senior Sister!"
Dai Mengfan's eyes lit up. "I agree!"
Le Tian sighed. "Sigh, he's really a dark horse among dark horses. Fortunately, he didn't open the bet. Alright then, count me in! "
Before long, almost half of the true disciples actually agreed. It was not because they were confident in Li Qingshan, but because they really had no other choice right now. Now that there was a glimmer of hope, and they did not have to take the risk, why not?
Li Liehuo frowned and asked, "You really aren't a spy from the Demon domain?"
Li Qingshan smiled. "Is there something wrong with first senior brother's head? If I were a spy from the Demon domain, the Roar of Thunder Cloud Formation would have already been destroyed. Combined with the demonfolk's large-scale attack, not a single one of you would be able to leave here alive. Of course, that's apart from senior sister Ruan. "
Everyone's expressions changed when they heard that. A mighty true disciple actually seemed like a useless piece of trash in his eyes. Even Li Liehuo was not so arrogant.
Ruan Yaozhu reddened. "If you're a spy from the Demon domain, I'll definitely hate you to death!"
Li Qingshan laughed aloud, even though he seemed like a teenager. Although he looked like a young man, he possessed a surging sense of heroism, purging away the gloominess and pessimism in the Blaze hall.
Li Liehuo said nothing in thought. He no longer cared about Li Qingshan's verbal offence. What mattered right now was whether he was willing to go into battle with this kid. He would be entrusting his life to him.
Strangely enough, he clearly hated him very much, but he felt a sense of confidence for some reason. He felt like this bastard kid was even more reliable than the true disciples behind him.
He was not a wishy-washy person, so he immediately made up his mind. "Li Qingshan, I order you to temporarily represent the Xuanwu Army. Go gather the army quickly. Tomorrow at the latest, we'll leave the city and fight the demonfolk to the death! "
Li Qingshan glanced at Li Liehuo and also rather admired his courage. Only by casting aside their past grievances could they work together as one. He clasped his fist. "Yes, sir!"
He turned around and left swiftly, leaving as quickly as he had come. The waves of heat in the air had yet to recede, and the redness on Ruan Yaozhu's face had yet to disperse completely.
Li Liehuo turned around. He did not close the door, nor did he sit back down. "The battle tomorrow will require the cooperation of all junior brothers and sisters. Dai Mengfan, heed my orders!"
He passed down orders one after another. He was the greatest true disciple in the first place, and he shouldered the most dangerous responsibility. No one dared to defy him.
After assigning tasks to all the true disciples, he added, "If anyone dares to shrink back in fear, don't blame the military for showing no mercy!"
However, when it really came down to it, apart from Wan Jianfeng, Ruan Yaozhu, and a few other true disciples, the others might not be willing to fight to the death. The world was vast, but it was not as important as their own lives.
At this moment, there was a great rumble, and the entire Black Cloud city shook. Even the boulders from the catapults couldn't compare to the sound of this.
Hu Zhigang hurried over in a panic. "R- army commander, Li Qingshan, I- he destroyed the teleportation hall!"
"What!?"
There was an uproar in the hall. They hurried over to the window, only to see that the teleportation hall had already been reduced to ruins. A cloud of dust rose into the air.
"Who gave him the guts to do this!? Could it be that he is a spy from the Demon Domain, and wants to wipe us all out? We must quickly capture him and bring him to justice! "
The teleportation formation leading to the Wan Xiang Sect was the most important route of retreat. It ensured that no matter how bad the situation was, the true disciples and even the high ranking officers could quickly return to the Wan Xiang Sect.
The Quartermaster Ge Xing lowered his head and smiled bitterly. Only he would dare to do this kind of thing. He is really fearless. Luckily, I did not offend him too much and gave him some face.
Li Liehuo smiled faintly and waved his hand. "No need to say more, this is my order!"
"Senior brother?" Hu Zhigang raised his head in surprise. Seeing the expression on Li Liehuo's face, he suddenly understood. "I am willing to live and die with senior brother!"
Li Liehuo patted his shoulder. "Good. Immediately go gather the officers, no, gather the entire army!"
The mountain was almost hollowed out and divided into different areas. Only the structural support and the connection of the earth veins were preserved. It was reinforced with thousand-year-old iron birch wood. It was more than enough to hide millions of soldiers.
Dong! Dong dong! Dong dong dong dong!
The war drums thundered. The officers and soldiers of the Xuanwu Army were summoned from the various caves.
In the large drill ground that spanned thousands of zhang, people were squeezing against each other as they looked up at the high platform. There was a person with his back facing them, holding a drumstick with both hands, fiercely beating a large drum, shaking everyone's heart.
Suddenly, the drumbeats stopped and reverberated endlessly.
