The starry sky was silent. In a desolate valley, there was a thick layer of dust and cold rocks.
Dragons and phoenixes were resting in the valley, and the dragon carriage was parked there quietly. Inside the carriage, Zhan Ruyi sat quietly beside the bed, not saying a word.
Qing Zhu arrived, and Silver Frost and White Snow, who were standing quietly at the door, quickly pulled the curtains aside.
Master Qing entered and sat down beside Zhan Ruyi. His gaze landed on her abdomen, and he reached out his hand to gently stroke it. Half a year had passed since the Palace Walls were destroyed, and the army was forced to abdicate. Zhan Ruyi's abdomen was already bulging. Qing Zhu felt guilty for dragging her everywhere at this time. "I'm sorry to trouble you."
Zhan Ruyi shook his head. "Compared to the soldiers fighting for their lives outside, this is much more comfortable."
Qing Zhu wanted to say something, but Sima Wentian's voice came from outside, "Your Majesty!"
Qing Zhu stood up, took a step, and turned back, lifting Zhan Ruyi's chin. He lowered his head and kissed Zhan Ruyi on the lips before turning to leave.
Putting down the curtains, Silver Frost and White Snow turned to look at Zhan Ruyi. Zhan Ruyi's face was calm, and he seemed to be listening to the commotion outside.
Qing Zhu walked out of the carriage and looked down at the people standing below.
Sima Wentian cupped his hands. "Your Majesty, there's news from the north. Teng Fei escaped to the north and fell into Kou Lingxu's trap. He was surrounded by Kou Lingxu's army, but Niu Youde appeared with his army and surrounded Kou Lingxu instead. They are currently engaged in a fierce battle …"
Qing Zhu jumped down from the carriage and shouted, "What did you say? Teng Fei and Niu Youde already ran to the north? "
Sima Wentian sighed in his heart, and nodded. "Yes, they have already gone to the north."
Qing Zhu suddenly looked up at the starry sky, an indescribable fire burning in his chest. They had been guarding here for so long like idiots, and they didn't even know when they ran. Where did they run from? He couldn't understand. The area he was guarding was big enough, so how dare Teng Fei and Niu Youde run around in the Galactic Unknown? Could they find another way out instead of going back?
He could only assume that this was Teng Fei's territory, after all. Teng Fei had probably scouted this Astral Wilderness long ago, and Niu Youde had chased after Teng Fei. Otherwise, there was no other explanation.
Before he could say anything, he put down the Star Bell in his hand and cupped his hands to report, "Your Majesty, the scouts reported that Niu Youde rode a black dragon and chased after a group of unknown people through a Star Door in the northern army's territory into the eastern army's territory where we are."
Qing Zhu's gaze turned cold as he looked at Sima Wentian and Gao Guan. Shangguan Qing, Pojun, and Wuqu looked at the two of them with furrowed brows, not knowing whose information was true and whose was false.
Sima Wentian was dumbfounded as he turned around to look at Gao Guan as though he was looking at a monster. It was as though he was asking, "Are you purposely going against me?" I said that Niu Youde was fighting in the northern army, and you said that Niu Youde was fighting in the eastern army. What do you mean?
Gao Guan glanced at him and said indifferently, "I just received a report from my subordinates and reported it truthfully to His Majesty. Don't think too much about it. I believe my subordinates will not make false reports before they figure it out."
Sima Wentian immediately panicked, "You mean that my subordinates are making false reports before they figure it out?"
Gao Guan: "You think too much. Maybe Niu Youde used his doppelgangers."
Sima Wentian: "At a time like this, there are people everywhere who could attack him. Isn't he afraid of danger by running around with his doppelgangers instead of concentrating his strength?"
"Enough!" Qing Zhu shouted, "Why are you still arguing at a time like this? Why don't you think of a way to figure out the situation?"
It was at this time that a few figures floated over. The Buddhist Lord had arrived with a few followers.
The moment they met, the Buddhist Lord said in a deep voice, "Second Brother, my spies found out that Niu Youde has already left the Astral Wilderness. He is riding a black dragon in the eastern army's territory to chase after a group of unknown people."
"…" Sima Wentian was speechless.
Gao Guan, on the other hand, had a calm expression.
"What's wrong? Is there something wrong? " The Buddhist Lord noticed that Sima Wentian was looking at him with a strange expression. He also noticed that Qing Zhu and the others were also looking at Sima Wentian.
Jade-faced Buddha Yu Luocha who stood behind him was cold and beautiful. Her bright eyes moved slowly as she observed everyone's reaction.
Sima Wentian immediately showed a helpless expression. He cupped his hands at Qing Zhu again and said, "Your Majesty, everything I said is true. It wasn't just one spy who reported this. There are many spies reporting this at the same time. Niu Youde and Teng Fei are really fighting with Kou Lingxu in the northern army's territory!"
The Buddhist Lord was startled. He asked, "What's going on?"
Qing Zhu immediately explained the situation. The Buddhist Lord frowned, "What's going on?"
Qing Zhu stared at Sima Wentian, "Why didn't your men report earlier? Why did they have to report now?"
Sima Wentian sighed, "Your Majesty, they have been strictly controlling the usage of the Star Bell. Our men couldn't find a chance to send the news. They took advantage of the chaos of the battle to send the news!"
Everyone was silent for a moment. This was normal.
The Buddhist Lord asked Sima Wentian, "Where is the battle taking place?"
Sima Wentian replied, "North army's Yu Road, in the Xinwu region."
The Buddhist Lord immediately turned and said, "Have our men investigate."
"Yes!" The disciple behind him immediately obeyed.
Since the Buddhist Lord had spoken, everyone could only wait patiently. They had to confirm the news. How could they run around without knowing the situation?
At this time, they could only rely on the Buddhist Lord's information channels. Not only were the Heavenly Court's spies being tormented by the Hero Gathering, the Xiahou Clan was also definitely making a move in the dark. They were already in a mess. On the other hand, the Buddhist Lord's disciples that were scattered all over the world came into play at this time. There were many of them and they were scattered. No one could wipe them all out. Even the Xiahou Clan couldn't destroy them in a short period of time.
After waiting for a while, that disciple replied, "Master, there is indeed a battle taking place there."
Qing Zhu immediately asked, "How many people are there?"
That disciple said, "I don't dare to go closer. There are many people. Roughly estimating, there should be more than six or seven billion! As for whether Niu Youde, Teng Fei, and Kou Lingxu are there, that disciple doesn't dare to confirm. He hasn't seen them before. "
Qing Zhu and the Buddhist Lord looked at each other. There was no need to say anything more. There was no one else other than those few fellows who could create so many people.
"According to what Left Emissary said just now, Teng Fei has been annexed by Niu Youde and became the bait for Niu Youde to deal with Kou Lingxu … Niu Youde has the ambition of a wolf. I'm afraid Kou Lingxu is in danger!" The Buddhist Lord said slowly.
"Shangguan, contact Kou Lingxu and tell him to hold on. This Emperor will go to his aid immediately … I hope he can hold on!" Qing Zhu couldn't help but sigh. He then waved his hand and shouted, "Assemble the army and set off!"
A large number of people began to be mobilized. The dragon carriage rose into the sky again and rushed to the battlefield urgently. As for what happened to Niu Youde who was riding the black dragon, it was no longer important.
Zhan Ruyi, who was sitting in the inner part of the dragon carriage, tilted her head and looked at the starry sky outside the window. There was an indescribable complicated expression in her eyes.
Annexing Cheng Taize's 1.5 billion men, defeating the 800 million guards, annexing Teng Fei's 1.5 billion men, ignoring Qing Zhu and the Buddhist Lord's armies and facing Kou Lingxu's three billion men. This imposing manner that could conquer the world made Zhan Ruyi's blood boil and dazzle her eyes. Was this still the same Niu Youde who she had looked down on before?
In the past, she always thought that the heavens were unfair to her and that she might not be any worse than Niu Youde. The only difference was that she was a girl. However, this time, could she do what Niu Youde did? Everyone said that Niu Youde was good at war. This time, she was truly convinced that she didn't have the courage and ability to do so.
Looking back at Niu Youde's rise, her grandfather Ying Jiu Guang's downfall was related to Niu Youde. That year, he dared to fight against her grandfather's millions of elite troops with only a hundred thousand men. Even the Southern Army's Heavenly King Hao Defang fell at Niu Youde's hands. Looking at him now, she could see that Niu Youde's imposing manner was already showing.
Now, Niu Youde's army was pointed at Kou Lingxu. From what they said just now, Kou Lingxu seemed to be in danger and wasn't Niu Youde's opponent. She could imagine that Niu Youde was unstoppable and would eventually fight Qing Zhu and the Buddhist Lord!
If he could succeed, his ambition and achievements would even surpass Qing Zhu and the Buddhist Lord. Qing Zhu and the Buddhist Lord had not been able to deal with the major powers for so many years, but Niu Youde's imposing manner was able to defeat the four Heavenly Kings and finally fight the world's most powerful martial artists to see who would rise and fall!
The image of countless armies surrounding Niu Youde flashed through Zhan Ruyi's mind. She slowly lowered her head and gently touched her bulging belly. Perhaps she had been thinking too much. Women were women.
Silver Frost and White Snow suddenly realized that Zhan Ruyi, who rarely smiled, was actually smiling. His expression was finally no longer as strong as before, and was now filled with the gentleness of a woman. However, there was a single tear at the corner of his eye …
Amidst the deafening cries of battle, Kou Lingxu saw that there was no hope for the army to merge. His personal guards were falling one after another under the assault of Niu Youde's army's massive Transcendence Archers. He was furious. He didn't even have the chance to charge out and fight Niu Youde to the death. The enemy's array of Transcendence Archers was simply too large. If he charged out, he would only die. He didn't even have the right to fight them.
He looked around and saw his subordinates, who had followed him for many years and served him for many years, falling in droves. He couldn't do anything about it, and these loyal subordinates were still protecting him with all their might. Kou Lingxu's heart was bleeding. He gritted his teeth and stared at Miao Yi in the enemy's camp.
He took out his Star Bell. Tang Henian's face was tense. He had long since readied his weapon.
Squeezed to the side, Kou Zheng had an ugly expression on his face. Even though he tried his best to maintain a calm expression, he couldn't hide the fear in his eyes. He had never seen such a massive and terrifying battle before!
As long as he wasn't an idiot, he could tell that there was no way he could win against Niu Youde this time.
What terrified him the most was the way he had acted in front of Niu Youde, the condescension and disdain he had shown, and the impolite words and actions he had spoken.
