To tell the truth, Xiao Yong was a bit upset. After all, many of his men would die in this war, but he was fighting for someone else. Didn't his men die in vain? So he had some complaints, but not too much. In his opinion, the salt bandits were just a motley crew that couldn't withstand a single blow.
"Greetings, Your Excellency!" Xiao Yong got down on one knee respectfully. "I'm Xiao Yong, a second-grade immortal general under the Southern Immortal Emperor. I'm here with 100,000 soldiers of the Western Qin Celestial Army at Your Excellency's command!"
Ye Kong quickly helped him up. "General Xiao Yong is in full armor. There's no need to be so formal."
Xiao Yong rose. "When are you going to send your troops? I'll lead 100,000 soldiers and wipe out the salt bandits of the White Hair Territory."
Xiao Yong wanted to send his troops as soon as they met. His spirit was commendable. But Ye Kong knew that the Zhai family wouldn't be easy to attack. He smiled. "General Xiao Yong, our biggest problem is the snow outside the White Hair Territory. Do you have any ideas?"
Xiao Yong said proudly, "It's just some snow. Why would the Western Qin Celestial Army be afraid of it?"
When Ye Kong heard this, he knew that this brother didn't know how powerful White Snow was.
"General Xiao, please bring a set of ordinary immortal weapons and armor," Ye Kong said.
Xiao Yong didn't know what to do. He frowned and ordered someone to bring a set of equipment. It was the standard equipment of the South Emperor's Mansion. Fourth-grade immortal sword and third-grade immortal armor.
It must be said that the South Emperor Residence was indeed rich. Normally, the other Immortal Emperor Residences would only give their soldiers Grade 3 immortal swords and Grade 2 immortal armors. Even the elite troops would at most be given Grade 3 immortal swords and armor.
South Emperor's Mansion was the only one in the Immortal Realm to give the lowest-ranking immortal soldiers a fourth-grade immortal sword and third-grade immortal armor.
But even with such a configuration, under the corrosion of the poisonous snow salt, it could not withstand a single blow!
Ye Kong still had some poisonous snow salt in his storage ring. He immediately put the immortal sword and armor on the table and sprinkled a layer of it on them.
After about half an hour, Ye Kong smiled and said, "General Xiao, please try your sword."
Xiao Yongxian picked up the immortal sword, only to find that the white snow that Ye Kong had sprinkled on it had all stuck to the blade! Furthermore, it was very tight, as if it had grown on the blade.
"These things actually have such strong adhesion?" Xiao Yong was a little surprised. He hooked a corner of the Poisonous Snow Salt with his finger and tried to peel it off the immortal sword, but he didn't expect that with a clang, the fourth-grade immortal sword would break into two!
"This …" Xiao Yong's eyes widened. No matter how strong he was, it would not be easy for him to break a grade 4 immortal sword. However, under the corrosion of the poisonous snow salt, the immortal sword had become even weaker than ordinary pig iron.
Ye Kong smiled and said, "General Xiao, please try this immortal armor."
This time, Xiao Yong didn't use a weapon. He only used his hand to pick up the immortal armor and then gently tore it … The immortal armor was actually torn open like a piece of paper.
Looking at the surface of the immortal armor, it was already covered in densely packed holes!
"This poisonous snow salt is actually so powerful!" Xiao Yong was dumbfounded. Having lived in the southern part of the immortal world for a long time, he knew that this poisonous snow salt was not ordinary.
Immortal General Wu Guibao said, "This is nothing. If there was more poisonous snow salt, and if it lasted longer, these immortal weapons and immortal armors would probably be corroded to nothing!"
"Ah!" For the first time, Xiao Yong felt that this battle was not going to be easy.
Soldiers could only be called soldiers if they had a weapon in their hands. If one's soldiers were all unarmed, without armor or weapons, how could one fight a battle? That was practically sending them to their deaths!
Xiao Yong thought for a moment and asked, "Then we can use flying cars to load up the soldiers and avoid the white snow."
Wu Guibao shook his head, "No, this poisonous snow salt can corrode all objects with immortal power. That's why flying cars with immortal arrays can't open the array door when they enter the poisonous snow salt, nor can they let people in or out. If we encounter an ambush by the Di family's immortal soldiers, it's very likely that we'll all be wiped out! "
"Then … I wonder how Lord Ye plans to deal with this corrosive poisonous salt?" Unknowingly, Xiao Yong's tone became much more polite. Moreover, it wasn't fake politeness, it was genuine politeness.
Ye Kong smiled and said, "Don't worry, I have a plan."
White Hair Region, Salt Five Stars.
On Sunspring Mountain, in the salt bandit stronghold, a husband and wife leader were extremely vexed.
"Brother Gao, what is the Zhai family trying to do? Why are they forcing the various strongholds to bring all of their immortals to join them? Otherwise, they'll annihilate them. Isn't this forcing us into a dead end?" The immortal bandit Ni Yuqing, who was dressed like a female hero, stood by the table and said angrily.
The leader Gao Wenpeng smiled bitterly, "It's all because of that Iron Prison Mountain's Prison Code Lord Ye. There are rumors that he's already mobilized the Iron Prison Mountain's immortal soldiers to attack the Zhai family. That's why Di Dongliang hurriedly gathered all the immortal bandits to fight against the strong enemy. "
Ni Yuqing sighed, "Back then, we even took in that Ye Kong. Who knew that after a hundred years, he actually became the Iron Prison Mountain's Prison Code. I feel that that Ye Kong is a person who values friendship and righteousness. I don't dare to say anything about him attacking us, but it's a good thing for us! "
"Shh!" Don't spout nonsense. Gao Wenpeng was so scared that he stood up and whispered to his wife, "It's good that you know this. Why did you say it out loud? The Zhai family's lobbyist is still on the mountain. If he hears this, I'm afraid that the thousands of people on the mountain will be exposed to the wilderness!"
After Gao Wenpeng finished speaking, the quick-witted Ni Yuqing remembered that the Zhai family had already sent lobbyists to all the strongholds. These lobbyists were actually forcing the various strongholds to join the Zhai family's armed forces. If they stubbornly refused or discovered that someone was colluding with Ye Kong, then these lobbyists would become sabermen and mercilessly kill them!
"Then what should we do? Do we have to give up our base here and go down the mountain to be Di Dongliang's cannon fodder?"
Just as they were fretting over this, they heard a commotion outside. Just as they were feeling puzzled, they saw the immortal bandit who was guarding the door stumble in and say, "Boss, Second Boss, there are two people who insisted on seeing you. They couldn't even wait to report. Aiyo, that little girl is really strong. I was pushed by her and actually rolled in like a ball."
The people outside were indeed fast. Before the immortal bandit finished speaking, two people stood in the courtyard. On the left was a tower-like man. On the right was a little girl with two buns.
Gao Wenpeng looked at the two people's cultivation and found that they were both high-grade Golden Immortals.
Back when Ye Kong was here, Gao Wenpeng and Ni Yuqing were both mid-grade Golden Immortals. After a hundred years, they had both risen to high-grade Golden Immortals.
Therefore, when he saw that the two people were only high-grade Golden Immortals, Gao Wenpeng felt relieved. Neither servile nor overbearing, he cupped his fists and said, "Yangquan Mountain's Gao Wenpeng and Ni Yuqing, may I know who you two are …"
