Stop! "
Huang Shaoyu's body stiffened and he said with a trembling voice, "Boss, be gentle … Ah …"
Lao Hei, who was guarding outside the tent, heard his general screaming as he flew out and fell on his face. He was shocked and quickly ran up to help him up. He said in admiration, "Master, you know that the brothers don't have enough wine and meat to eat, so you eat dirt by yourself. You're really great. I, Lao Hei, admire you like a surging river …"
Huang Shaoyu struggled to get up and slapped Lao Hei to the ground. "Can't you see that I'm getting beaten up? Eat your mother's dirt, eat it!" As he said that, he stomped Lao Hei's head into the dirt and even crushed it twice.
Lao Hei did as he was told and then said in a muffled voice, "Boss, this soil is sweet. It's like the osmanthus cake made by your wife."
"Really?" Huang Shaoyu's eyes lit up. He licked the soil on his lips and his face turned from white to green. He pointed at Lao Hei on the ground, "You …"
"Ugh …"
Yan Li took Ji Zhiyuan out of the tent and saw the two vomiting side by side. He could not help laughing, "It's said that this place used to be a latrine."
Hearing this, the two vomited even more. They wanted to reach their hands into their throats and dig out the food they ate last night. When he was done, he chased after Ji Zhiyuan. Ji Zhiyuan shook off Yan Li's hand and stopped. She said calmly, "You arranged for me to sit next to the latrine?" The two of them looked at each other with schadenfreude and held back their laughter as they watched the show from afar.
Yan Li turned around with a smile and held Ji Zhiyuan's hand again, "Silly, this latrine belongs to a rich family. You sleep in the master bedroom of the owner of the house. Look, facing south, it's the most comfortable."
Ji Zhiyuan immediately smiled and was happily led away, leaving Huang Shaoyu and Lao Hei dumbfounded. "If I could make a woman happy with just one sentence, I wouldn't still be alone today," Ol 'Hei said in dejection.
Huang Shaoyu patted Blackie's shoulder sympathetically and said, "With your intelligence, I'm afraid there's no hope in this life. How about I help you snatch one?"
Lao Hei said, "A melon that is forcibly picked won't be sweet."
"You can add some honey," Huang Shaoyu said.
Old Hei said, "If it's bitter at the beginning, then after the sweetness, only bitterness will remain. I have long since passed the age of pursuing the process. "
Huang Shaoyu was both surprised and curious. "Hey, you uncouth old man, when did you develop such literary talent?"
Old Hei looked like he didn't want to recall the past and said with melancholy, "Love is just a fleeting reality. Only loneliness is eternal." Then he sighed and walked away with his hands behind his back, shaking his head.
Huang Shaoyu also sighed and suddenly sped up a few steps. He rushed up and kicked Old Hei's butt. The latter staggered a few steps and looked back with grievance. "Boss, why did you kick me?" Huang Shaoyu raised his head arrogantly. "Don't say such things in front of me in the future. It makes me seem like I'm lacking in class." Then he walked away.
The temporary meeting place was set up in the camp of Swallow Fort. The leaders were all present for the final vote.
Zhang Yifeng looked at Ji Hyun-woon, then at Lianhai Qingshan, and finally at Gu Qingyou. Seeing that the three of them nodded, he said, "Brother Yan, let me say this first. Kindness is kindness, and alliance is alliance. We are not acting on our emotions. This is a unanimous decision made after careful consideration."
"What decision?"
Yan Li said.
Zhang Yifeng said, "The alliance will appoint Brother Yan as the leader."
"No." Yan Li shook his head.
Everyone was a little surprised and looked at him in confusion. He smiled. "It's undeniable that Swallow Fort is the strongest at the moment. It's more than enough to lead the alliance. However, Lord Zhang knows the Dragon Monarch's imperial court the best. I'll have to trouble you to arrange the troops."
Zhang Yifeng said, "What's the use of me being the leader if I can't convince everyone?"
Yan Li said, "How will you know if you don't try?"
Zhang Yifeng looked around and didn't feel any resistance. He thought carefully and said, "Since you want me to be the leader, I'll decide everything in the alliance. If there's anyone who isn't willing, you can bring it up now."
No one said anything. They were eager to find Ji Yuyu and didn't want to cause more trouble.
Zhang Yifeng said, "If that's the case, the alliance will be named after 'Yan'. We'll be called the Yan Alliance." He shouted to the outside, "Sign the alliance."
The tent curtain was lifted and a group of imperial bodyguards filed in. They were divided into groups of three, one holding a large bowl of wine, one holding a golden silk scroll, and one holding a brush and ink. They stood beside their respective leaders. To show their seriousness, the leaders read the alliance letter seriously, then raised their brushes and signed their names. Finally, they all held a bowl of wine and waited for Zhang Yifeng to give a simple speech before downing the wine in one gulp. Only then was the alliance officially established.
Yan Li put down his bowl and cupped his fists. He smiled and said, "Greetings, Alliance Leader. Please give the order. How should we attack? "
Zhang Yifeng said, "We've escaped from death and crushed the Dragon Monarch's spirit. It's time to go all out." He stood up and placed a table in the middle. He waved his hands and an illusory sand table appeared on the table. The structure was exquisite and vivid. It was the scene of Tian Jing. "Everyone, please take a look. This is the full picture of Tian Jing. The history of this city is even older than mine. It was built about 1,600 years ago, and was originally called Pan Xing City. Its master, Venerable Pan Xing, was an ambitious great cultivator. He built this city in order to compete with the Nine Great Dao Orthodoxies, who had just come to power at that time. However, he could not defeat them and died in battle. The dynasty he controlled also declined because of this, forming a more complicated situation than today, where hundreds of schools of thought contended. You all know the result. The Great Xia Dynasty obtained the final victory. They unified the eight realms of the human world and changed their name to the Dragon Monarch Dynasty. Although Venerable Pan Xing has been submerged in the river of history, the city he left behind is a very troublesome existence. It is a giant formation. "
"Formation?" Everyone was shocked.
Yan Li said, "Every time I step into Tian Jing, I feel something strange. It's like I'm being watched by countless eyes."
"That's right." Zhang Yifeng took a thin wooden stick and drew out the three main roads of Tianjing. "I think you've all noticed that Tianjing is different from other cities. There are three main roads, and that's just on the surface. This array has a total of 16 main arteries. Three are used to connect to the streets, and the rest are hidden deep underground. They crisscrossed and formed a very ancient formation system called the Star Rune Formation. The birth of the Star Rune Formation could be traced back to more than ten thousand years ago. At that time, cultivation was not divided into fixed realms. The overlords of each era relied on their talents. Of course, they did not know how to use talismans. The ancient prophets used their hazy perception to carve special patterns on the ground, which resonated with the sea of stars and produced effects. This was the original Star Rune Formation. After the rise of the human race, in the era of geniuses, ancient ruins appeared from all over the world. The cultivators obtained the incomplete talismans left behind by the ancient Star Spirit Clan from the ruins. Only then did they activate the magic circle with the talismans as the core. "
He used a wooden stick to carve out a corresponding gap on the outer wall of the city wall. "Everyone, please take a look. Even the main road on the surface is disguised. The position I pointed out is the hidden city gate. In other words, there are six gates in Tian Jing. Two of them are hidden. One leads directly to the True Dragon Court, which is the palace. The other leads to the entrance of Tian Jing. There are many stone pillars there. It's the auxiliary formation that the Star Formation uses to connect to Tian Jing. It's called the Wing Formation. "
"Wing Formation?" Yan Li's heart jumped. "Is this the examination venue for the Soaring Dragon Rankings Examination?"
"Yes." Zhang Yifeng nodded. He continued, "If the Star Formation is not broken, the army of the Yan League will not be able to break into Tian Jing. Therefore, our operation must revolve around breaking the formation. It's the same as when Swallow Fort attacked the Five Elements Court. Although the Star Rune Array is ancient, its power cannot be underestimated. In the city, anyone who has a seal in their hands can use their ultimate skills without the help of True Qi. Some people with special skills can even summon a phenomenon of heaven and earth. "
Ji Hyun-woon's eyes flashed. He said, "What are you afraid of? Let Yan Li take the lead and break the Wing Formation. He happens to know that place."
Zhang Yifeng said, "Then I'll have to trouble you, Brother Yan."
"I won't let you down." Yan Li accepted.
Zhang Yifeng said, "Let me talk about the plan. There are six gates. Lihen Heaven will go here." He pointed at a gap on the opposite side with a wooden stick. "This gate is called the Zheng De Gate. It leads to the palace. The palace will be the most difficult part of the battle. Because there are not only inner court masters surrounding Ji Yuyu, but also an old monster who has lived for thousands of years!"
"Hiss …" Lianhai Qingshan's face turned pale. "Could it be the Universe Deity?" Only the Universe Deity could live for more than 800 years.
Zhang Yifeng's expression changed slightly. It was as if he was reminiscing, as if he was sad, as if he was angry. But in the end, all these changes disappeared, leaving behind only endless coldness. "He betrayed his best friend and was cursed. He will never be able to reach the peak again."
Yan Li could easily see the signs of hatred. He saw Zhang Yifeng's cold eyes shooting out endless flames of hatred. He couldn't help but fall into a trance. "If he isn't, how can he live for thousands of years?"
Zhang Yifeng said, "This person refined his body and soul into the 'Star Rune Array', and used his peerless divine ability to set up the 'Divine Dragon Array' in the palace. To deal with this person, breaking the 'Star Rune Array' is only the first step, we still have to completely wipe him out. Since Lihen Heaven has an irreconcilable grudge with this person, please make way for him through the gate to the palace. "
"Who is he?" Ji Hyun-woon vaguely guessed a person.
Zhang Yifeng said, "He is Ji Wanfeng, the First Ancestor of the Dragon Emperor!"
Like a stone stirring up a thousand ripples, the voices of discussion in the tent surged violently.
Yan Li sighed. "It seems that there was a hidden story behind the struggle back then."
Zhang Yifeng smiled faintly. "It's all in the past. Now, I only have hatred for him. Let's not talk about it. I suggest we divide our forces and disrupt the Dragon Emperor's deployment. Everyone, please attack one gate each. Swallow Fort's Lava Corps will assist Young Palace Master Gu in attacking the North's Famous Prestige Gate. Flying Dragon Corps will assist Manor Master Lianhai in attacking the South's Splendid Gate. Brother Yan will lead the Forest Corps to attack the Hidden Yuan Gate. That's the entrance to the Branch Wing Formation. Chang Zhou King will lead the army to attack the Clear Peace Gate in the east …
"Everyone," he looked at the crowd with a dignified gaze for the first time. "Success or failure depends on this. Go back and prepare when Ye Chou descends!"
