The army marched swiftly, followed by the dragon and phoenix.
Inside the dragon carriage, Shangguan Qing, who slowly put down the star bell in his hand, looked a little gloomy. He wanted to say something but stopped on second thought.
Qing Zhu glanced at him, "What's the matter?"
Shangguan Qing bowed slightly and said, "Your Majesty, a Shadow Guard from the Huangfu Clan escaped by luck."
Several people in the pavilion stared at him. Qing Zhu squinted his eyes and said, "What do you mean?"
Shangguan Qing's Adam's apple bobbed up and down as he braced himself to reply, "The Huangfu Clan colluded with Niu Youde and launched a surprise attack on the Shadow Guards planted in the Huangfu Clan. Only one Shadow Guard managed to escape." As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his eyes carefully and immediately met Qing Zhu's murderous eyes. He quickly lowered his head again.
Qing Zhu sneered, "Shangguan, you've done a good job in controlling the Great Ensemble!"
Shangguan Qing hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, how can this old servant completely entrust the Great Ensemble to outsiders? Although the Huangfu Clan controls the Great Ensemble on the surface, in fact, many of the people in the Great Ensemble are controlled by the people arranged by this old servant. It's fine if the Huangfu Clan is obedient, but if not, this old servant will immediately activate the people below."
If things hadn't reached this point, Qing Zhu really wanted to kick him out. This feeling of being beaten up by others and pushed by others made him very angry. When it rains, it pours. There were people betraying him everywhere. It made him feel that the world was completely out of his control.
At this time, Gao Guan put away the star bell again, squinted at Shangguan Qing, and cupped his hands to Qing Zhu, "Your Majesty, the people in the right supervision department have been activated according to the order. They have set up spies in all the important places. Because the Great Ensemble has received the same task, the best places to stay are those places. Both sides can easily meet each other. In addition, the Great Ensemble has the intention to search … In short, many spies in the right supervision department have been attacked by the Great Ensemble and suffered great losses. Facing the disturbance of the Great Ensemble, the spies in all sides are in a mess and are attacking each other. The people in the right supervision department can no longer play their role as spies normally."
Qing Zhu stared at Shangguan Qing fiercely. The latter quickly took out the star bell and activated another group of forces in the Great Ensemble.
Gao Guan continued to report, "Your Majesty, according to the news of the spies, Niu Youde seems to have led the army out of the southern army and entered the eastern army."
"Out of the southern army?" Qing Zhu asked suspiciously. After which, he frowned and took out a Star Bell, it was a message from Teng Fei.
Teng Fei's intention was very simple. Niu Youde wouldn't let him have it easy, and he didn't want to let Niu Youde have it easy either. He wanted to inform Lord Qing that Niu Youde was going to attack him and ask for help!
After putting down the Star Bell, Qing Zhu's gaze swept across the crowd and he said solemnly, "Niu Youde has indeed gone to the eastern army to attack Teng Fei!"
Everyone looked at each other, Wu Qu asked, "Why did he attack Teng Fei?"
Qing Zhu: "Teng Fei refused to listen to the other families and send their troops to support Kou Lingxu against Boss Fo's men. Niu Youde's warning was ineffective and he actually sent his troops to deal with Teng Fei. Teng Fei asked for help, saying that he's willing to join forces with me to deal with Niu Youde. "
Gao Guan said, "It's understandable that Teng Fei doesn't send out his troops. If the people in his hands are all killed, he won't have the confidence to talk back. It's also understandable that Niu Youde wants to deal with him. He's probably afraid that Teng Fei will join His Imperial Majesty's side. As for Teng Fei's so-called alliance with His Imperial Majesty, I don't think that's necessarily the case. I reckon that his true intention is to preserve his strength. It's very likely that he wants to lure His Imperial Majesty to fight Niu Youde and have His Imperial Majesty deal with the problem for him. He's hoping that both sides will suffer great losses. "
Qing Zhu scoffed, "How can I not know what he's thinking? Even if he didn't say it, I would still go to Niu Youde to settle the score. It's also a good thing that his spies within the borders are providing me with information and helping me grasp Niu Youde's movements. Pass down my orders. The army is to divert to the eastern army's borders and fight Niu Youde! "
His attitude was different from Miao Yi's.
Miao Yi didn't want to face Qing Zhu head-on just yet. With Miao Yi's current strength, Qing Zhu might not be a match for him. However, the other forces weren't to be trifled with either. Even if they won against Qing Zhu's personal army of 3.6 billion, they would still lose more than half of their forces. That would simply be letting the others take advantage of the situation.
However, Qing Zhu was different. If Miao Yi's forces were weaker than his, he would suppress the rebellion and eliminate Miao Yi. Now that Miao Yi's forces were stronger than his, he had to strike back. Otherwise, if everyone came to a compromise like this, and he was still weaker than Miao Yi, who would rule the world then? Would Miao Yi still pay taxes to him? How could he, a Celestial Emperor, tolerate this?!
Wu Qu asked hesitantly, "Your Imperial Majesty, could this be a trap? What if Teng Fei and Niu Youde are working together? Out of the four hundred million troops we have outside, we have only managed to gather a hundred million. Once our nine hundred million troops fall into Niu Youde's and Teng Fei's trap, we will be in deep trouble. "
"Hmph!" Defeating Armies, who had remained silent most of the time, suddenly said, "Working together? Niu Youde, Kou Lingxu, Lord Guang, and Teng Fei — which one of them isn't harboring ulterior motives? None of these traitors will trust each other easily. If Your Imperial Majesty doesn't use force, then what kind of bullsh * t competition can they come up with? Once Your Imperial Majesty decides to use force, they will all be afraid. If they can't see an opportunity to take advantage of, then they will definitely not work together. There's no need to worry so much. Just focus on whoever is the strongest! "
He then cupped his fists towards Qing Zhu and said, "Your Imperial Majesty, there's no need to play any tricks. Just one thing — fight! I ask Your Imperial Majesty to immediately contact the Buddhist Master's forces and have them meet up with Your Imperial Majesty as soon as possible. Then, we can join forces and attack together! The traitors' greatest weakness is their distrust of each other. No matter how many people they have, it's useless if they can't work together as one. This is our advantage. We only need to focus on one of them and pursue them relentlessly. The others are afraid that others will take advantage of them, so they are all trying to preserve their strength. They won't get involved easily. Let's go all out and fight with no worries! "
Wu Qu was a decisive person, and his words were clean and straightforward. However, it was in line with Qing Zhu's intentions.
Sima Wentian interrupted, "If we do this, what if they all hide?"
"What a petty person!" Defeating Armies suddenly pointed his finger and rebuked. Sima Wentian's face twitched from his scolding.
Defeating Armies then said passionately, "Hide? I'm not afraid of them hiding, I'm afraid that they won't hide! If they all hide, the people of the world will naturally see it. The four clans are also afraid of Your Imperial Majesty even after working together. They are so scared that they have to hide. This is strength, strength is the heart of the people! Once they hide, there will be space. Where the hearts of the people are, Your Imperial Majesty can easily recruit people from all over the world to rebuild the army and quickly increase our strength! I want to see how long they can hide. Without their territory, I want to see how they are going to support so many people! When they can't hold it in anymore and want to fight with Your Imperial Majesty again, Your Imperial Majesty's strength will not be the same as it is now. I'm afraid they will have to think twice before fighting! They lack resources and don't dare to fight. After a long time, I'm afraid we won't even need to fight, they will scatter first! "
His words were very unyielding and majestic. He really didn't play any tricks, just relentlessly chasing after them!
But such a simple logic was the truth. Qing Zhu's heart lit up when he heard it, and his anxious mood was swept away. He glanced at Defeating Armies and cursed the old man in his mind, but on the surface, he nodded and said, "That's what I think!"
Sima Wentian was speechless, cursing his bad luck …
The group of more than a thousand people flew rapidly into the boundless unknown galaxy.
"Lin Jue, set up scouts along the way!" Teng Fei, who was protected in the middle by the generals, turned his head and ordered.
The general beside him cupped his fists and answered, "Yes!"
"Wait a minute!" Another general called Luo Changfeng stopped him.
Teng Fei looked back and asked, "Changfeng, why are you stopping me?"
Luo Changfeng said, "Your Highness, since we want to preserve our strength and avoid Niu Youde's army, it's better to be careful. Setting up scouts along the way is definitely not a safe move. No one can guarantee that there are no scouts from other clans. If there are, it's the same as leaving a trail for others to follow. This subordinate suggests that we only need to remember the route back and forth. As for the route, there's no need to leave any scouts along the way. We can just set up scouts around the hiding spot later. Even if there are scouts from other clans, they won't be able to figure out our exact location. "
Many people nodded when they heard this. Teng Fei pointed at him and nodded, saying, "It's indeed a wise opinion. Alright, we'll do as you say. It's better to be safe than sorry!"
The group continued to fly forward, and Luo Changfeng, who had been giving advice just now, flew to the side intentionally or unintentionally. From time to time, a small bead would slip out of his hand and quietly stay in the starry sky …
In another unknown galaxy, on a barren yellow planet, people landed on a mountain peak one after another.
With the arrival of Traversing Moon Palace Master Li Hua, all the Palace Masters of the Ten Elements Palace were present.
Wu Zhang, True Lord Fire, and Yin Erlang, who had been trapped for many years, were also present. The three of them checked their position on the star map and realized that they were in the unknown galaxy.
After greeting everyone, Li Hua said, "Everyone's here. Let's go."
"Wait." Wu Zhang spoke up to stop him. "Is everyone here? Why do I feel like two people are missing? Why aren't White Lady and Shen Mi here? "
The Palace Masters of the Ten Elements Palace looked at each other. They all knew that the Demon Lord had eight great Demon Generals under him. Three of them had died during the incident back then, so there were only five left.
Yin Erlang chuckled. "Don't you all know Lord White's temper? Not only did Shen Mi escape in the face of battle, he even instigated everyone to disband. It would be strange if Lord White let him go. There's a high chance that he's already been killed by Lord White! "
Wu Zhang humphed. "What about White Lady? She shamelessly claimed to be Lord White's wife back then, and she had always listened to Lord White. Lord White wouldn't go as far as to kill her, right? "
Li Hua said, "I'm not sure about that. The information I received only said that there were three of you."
"I have to get to the bottom of this." Wu Zhang didn't care. He took out his Star Bell and contacted the others.
The others didn't say anything. Those in the know all knew that Wu Zhang was a little interested in White Lady …
On the Venomous Star, inside the underground treasure vault, the lights were dreamy and illusory.
On a street, there were officials on horseback, masters in sedan chairs, waiters in inns, shopkeepers in shops, beggars who were beaten and scolded as they begged, girls in brothels waving handkerchiefs to attract customers, and peddlers and pawns walking back and forth. Yet all of them had the same face.
Ba Jie, who was sitting cross-legged on his lotus throne, was immersed in this dreamy and illusory light. He was like a Buddha sitting on the clouds, looking down on all living beings. His eyes were closed, and the faces of all living beings in the light were his. It was as if he was performing all kinds of expressions at the same time. It was incomparably mystical.
