Teng Qingshan sat cross-legged on the back of the Undying Phoenix, Little Blue. He looked down at Qing Hu Island, which had turned into a sea of fire. A cold glint flickered in his eyes as he said, "Qing Hu Island, weren't you powerful and domineering in the past? Today, this fire will be the beginning of the death of Qing Hu Island! Blind Tie, do you think that I won't be able to find you if you hide? "
"Little Blue!"
Teng Qingshan pointed the direction of the Undying Phoenix, Little Blue. Immediately, the Undying Phoenix flapped its wings and flew into the distance.
Although the Blind Swordmaster had burned down Qing Hu Island, Teng Qingshan knew very well that … … the Blind Swordmaster must have moved the elite disciples, important figures, and many treasures of Qing Hu Island away. What was left on this island was just an empty shell. Burning the island would not affect the strength of Qing Hu Island much.
However, it would affect the morale of Qing Hu Island greatly.
Qing Hu Island's thousand-year old nest was burned down just like that. Any disciple of Qing Hu Island would naturally think, "Even the Island Lord and the Grand Supreme Elder gave up and left the island. They were burned down by the enemy. The Island Lord must have thought that he was no match for the enemy. " With this thought in mind, many disciples with weak wills would directly surrender during the course of the battle.

"Ah!"
"No, no, this can't be true!"
In the middle of the Qing Lake, many people were slapping the lake water to prevent it from sinking. They floated on the surface of the water and looked at Qing Hu Island, which had turned into a sea of fire. Some of the old men's hair had already turned white. They had lived on the island their whole lives, and their loyalty to Qing Hu Island had long been engraved into their souls.
Today, Qing Hu Island had been burned down. To them, it was as if the sky had collapsed.
On the shore of the Qing Lake, among the weeds, two young men were looking at the island in the middle of the lake. Their expressions were extremely unsightly.
"Qing Hu Island has been burned down." One of the young men, who seemed honest, said in a deep voice.
"The Gui Yuan Sect is really ruthless." The other young man gnashed his teeth and said.
"This is war. It's either you die or I die. It's not really ruthless. "The honest young man said in a low voice." Junior Martial Brother, this is only burning Qing Hu Island. The remaining soldiers of Qing Hu Island are all old and weak … … The war between the Gui Yuan Sect and Qing Hu Island has just begun. It's still not certain who will win! "
"Yes, quickly report this news to the Island Lord."
The two scouts quietly left.
…
In Lu City, a small city about a thousand Li away from Qing Hu Island, there was an ordinary-looking mansion.
In the dark study room, the doors and windows were tightly shut.
A golden-haired man dressed in a gray cloak was sitting cross-legged. This person was the Island Lord of Qing Hu Island, one of the seven Supreme Sects in the Land of the Nine Prefectures, Tie Pan. He sat quietly in the study room for a long time — —
"Island Lord." A voice came from outside.
"Enter," Tie Pan said in a low voice.
Creak! The door of the study opened, and a ray of sunlight shone in, causing Tie Pan to squint his eyes. After entering the study, the bald man hastily closed the door of the study. He then respectfully handed over a report and said, "Island Lord, this is the news that was just sent from Qing Hu Island." Tie Pan took a deep breath and received the report.
He unfolded it and took a look —
Tie Pan's face instantly turned red.
"Teng Qingshan!!! You've gone too far!!! "Tie Pan couldn't help but roar. Although he was prepared, he was still so angry that his body trembled.
"Get out," Tie Pan scolded.
"Yes, Island Lord." The bald man hastily retreated and closed the door.
Tie Pan read the report carefully, reading it over and over again. There was only a simple description in the report — — "A person rode on a Divine Flaming Bird and descended on Qing Hu Island. Boundless flames descended and turned Qing Hu Island into a sea of fire." It seemed simple, but this island was the foundation of Qing Hu Island!
Tie Pan clenched his fists in anger when his foundation was destroyed.
From the afternoon until the sky turned dark.
Outside of Lu City, about a hundred miles underground, there was a large hole in the center of one of the rocks. A skinny, black cloaked blind man was sitting cross-legged! Even if Teng Qingshan searched the entire Yangzhou, he wouldn't be able to find the Blind Swordmaster a hundred Li underground.
"Hmm?" Blind Tie's grayish-white eyes flashed fiercely.
Whoosh!
Like a sharp sword, he shot up into the sky, smashing rocks, sand, and even rushing through lava. A moment later, Blind Tie emerged from the ground of Tie Pan's study.
Bang! Crushed rocks rolled to the side, and Blind Tie landed in the study.
"Martial Ancestor." Tie Pan hastily stood up when he saw the person.
"Did anything happen today?" The black-cloaked blind man asked coldly. Ever since the day he sensed danger, the Blind Swordmaster had been staying underground every day. He had been very cautious. To a blind man, it didn't matter if he was on the surface or underground. After all, they couldn't see.
"Martial Ancestor," Tie Pan said in a deep voice, "Teng Qingshan burned the entire island with the help of the Undying Phoenix."
The black-cloaked blind man's body trembled slightly before he steadied himself.
"The Gui Yuan Sect has finally declared war on us," the black-cloaked blind man said in a deep voice.
This fire was the beginning of the war!
"Sigh, if I had known that Teng Qingshan was so powerful, I would have killed him at all costs," Tie Pan said regretfully. Tie Pan couldn't help but regret. Actually, if the Emptiness Realm Expert, Blind Tie, had personally dealt with Teng Qingshan, who hadn't even reached the Emptiness Realm, Teng Qingshan definitely wouldn't have been able to escape.
However, they had sent Zhao Danchen to Yuzhou to pursue and kill Teng Qingshan. The men of Qing Hu Island were already confident.
Secondly, it was unbelievable for an Emptiness Realm Culmination Expert to pursue and kill an Innate Expert.
No one was a prophet who could predict the future. It was too late to regret now.
"It's useless to regret." The black-cloaked blind man said coldly, "We have a great advantage now, and that is the number of ordinary soldiers and elite soldiers. We have an absolute advantage over the Gui Yuan Sect. After all, the Gui Yuan Sect only has a foothold in one county. How many soldiers can they send? Sending a hundred thousand soldiers would be impressive. "
"However, for a big city like Yangzhou, a hundred thousand soldiers are nothing. Among the thirteen counties of Yangzhou, ten to twenty thousand soldiers are needed just to guard a county city, let alone attack the city. The twelve counties need over a hundred thousand soldiers. The Gui Yuan Sect doesn't even have enough soldiers to guard the city. "
"Qing Hu Island has over two million soldiers. We can exhaust them to death."
"Is it possible that the Gui Yuan Sect will always let the Emptiness Realm Expert fight? That's ridiculous. Even if the other twelve counties of Yangzhou surrender temporarily, once the Emptiness Realm Expert leaves, the surrendered soldiers will rebel … … Do you think they can suppress two million soldiers with such a small number of soldiers? "The black-cloaked blind man was very confident.
It didn't mean that the Emptiness Realm Expert was strong enough.
After all, no matter how powerful the Emptiness Realm Expert was, he was only one person. He couldn't manage every place at the same time. This was also why the Heavenly God Palace had to endure for so long and accumulate a strong enough army before they could rise.
*****
In the pitch-black night.
The Undying Phoenix spread its wings and soared several thousand Zhang high in the sky. Teng Qingshan was also on its back, constantly sensing the aura below through his domain.
"This Blind Tie is hiding really well. I have been looking for him for so long, but I still can't find his shadow." Teng Qingshan shook his head. He had been searching for Blind Tie from the afternoon until it was dark, but he still couldn't find Blind Tie. The aura of an Emptiness Realm Expert compared to an ordinary person was like the sun compared to a grain of sand.
As long as Teng Qingshan covered the area with his domain, he would be able to find the powerful aura of an Emptiness Realm Expert.
As for finding Tie Pan and Gu Yong, it was much more difficult. This was because Tie Pan and Gu Yong were not Emptiness Realm Experts and didn't have the Harmonization of the Spirit with the Heavens and Earth. Their auras were much weaker than an Emptiness Realm Expert's, but they were much stronger than ordinary people. It was naturally easy to find an aura as strong as the sun among the countless auras of souls. However, it was much more difficult to find the aura of an Innate Expert that was only slightly stronger than an ordinary person.
After all, it was easy to find an iron ball the size of a head in the sand.
It would take a lot of time to find soybeans that were slightly larger than grains of sand in the sand.
It was the same principle. If one wanted to find an Innate Expert among the crowd, they would have to stop at every place for a few breaths of time!
To find an Emptiness Realm Expert, Teng Qingshan could let the Undying Phoenix fly over at lightning speed. As long as it flew over a certain area, it would be able to know if there was an Emptiness Realm Expert.
However, to find an Innate Expert, the Undying Phoenix would have to fly slowly. It would take a few breaths of time to identify each area. If that was the case … with the vastness of Yangzhou, who knew how long it would take?
…
"Little Blue." Teng Qingshan pointed downwards.
In the middle of the night, the Undying Phoenix swooped into Teng Jia Village. That night, Teng Qingshan and Zhuge Yuan-hong met up.
Chichi ~ ~
The candle emitted a dim light. The master and disciple sat opposite each other, drinking and chatting.
"Haha, I expected it." Zhuge Yuan-hong said with a smile, "It's normal for the Blind Swordmaster to hide. If he really wanted to hide, it would be very difficult for you to find him. However, Qingshan, this time you went to Qing Hu Island and burned it. Our goal has been achieved. Our army can move out in five days. "
"Five days?" Teng Qingshan froze.
"Yes, five days."
Zhuge Yuan-hong nodded and said, "Burning Qing Hu Island will greatly affect the morale of Qing Hu Island's army. This is especially true for the counties that don't have much loyalty. I'm afraid that when our army arrives, they will open their gates and surrender. Therefore … when the news of burning Qing Hu Island spreads throughout Yangzhou, we will act. Five days … is enough time for the news to spread. "
"Open their gates and surrender?" Teng Qingshan was slightly surprised.
"Among the thirteen counties of Yangzhou, Xuyang County, Tiannan County, and Chu County of Tie Yi Hall have been in chaos for many years. These three counties don't have much loyalty to Qing Hu Island. "Zhuge Yuan-hong smiled and said," With the strength we have shown, we can easily take over this county city. Of course, our first battle should scare Qing Hu Island and shock the world! We should let the entire Yangzhou know that our Gui Yuan Sect not only has powerful Emptiness Realm Experts, but our army is also extremely powerful. "
Teng Qingshan nodded.
"Oh, right. Teacher, there is only so much Fiery Gilt Steel. The Long Gang Guards have a total of twelve thousand men … This Fiery Gilt Steel Battle Armor is not enough. "Teng Qingshan suddenly thought of this.
According to his calculations, the amount of Fiery Gilt Steel could only make over three thousand sets of Fiery Gilt Steel Battle Armor.
"It's not enough." Zhuge Yuan-hong nodded and said, "Take out most of the Fiery Gilt Steel and make a total of two thousand sets of battle armor made entirely of Fiery Gilt Steel. At the same time, mix the remaining Fiery Gilt Steel with other ores. We have made fifteen thousand sets of Fiery Feather Battle Armor. "
"Five days from now, the Fiery Gilt Battle Armor, the Fiery Feather Battle Armor, and the Long Gang Guards will reveal the strength of the Gui Yuan Sect to the world!" Zhuge Yuan-hong's eyes shone.
The Gui Yuan Sect would also … ascend to the ranks of the supreme sects of the Nine Prefectures!
