The Luling Rift Valley was extremely long. It was damp and cool inside. Most winged beasts preferred to rest on special trees or nests on cliffs. The higher the status of the winged beasts, the closer they would be to the sky, just to show off their strength and identity.
The Luling Rift Valley was a great place for the team to avoid being harassed by the Mountain Patrol Beasts. After all, there were other creatures that did not like sunlight living in the Rift Valley. If any winged beasts dared to fly into the Rift Valley, they would be hunted down by the demon creatures in the Rift Valley.
The Wind of Sorrow weakened significantly after they entered the Rift Valley. However, the Violet Imperial Battalion did not dare to waste any more time, considering how limited their time was. They quickly made their way through the Rift Valley.
The Rift Valley was located at a relatively low altitude. Some parts of the Rift Valley were formed by mountain streams and underground springs. They could see a long stream of water meandering under the Rift Valley, like a white serpent in the mountains.
Outside the turbulent valley water, there were many exposed rocks. Everyone's cultivation base was not low, and each of them were constantly jumping to move forward in this valley. Zhang Xiaohou was very familiar with this terrain. He was indeed like a lithe divine monkey, and from time to time, he would be able to stick close to the steep walls on both sides of the valley as he moved forward.
Zhang Xiaohou did not have to worry too much about the team. He had been in the army for many years, so he was very good at scouting. Both the cunning demon creatures that were hiding in the Rift Valley and the demon creatures that were blocking their path were lured away by Zhang Xiaohou, allowing the team to move forward without stopping at all.
Zhang Xiaohou did not have to waste any energy dealing with the Yin Mountain Monsters in the Rift Valley. They did not encounter a single demon creature after traveling around five kilometers.
"General Zhang is still the most familiar with the Qinling Mountains. If we can keep up with this pace, we will soon reach Mount Baiba," Advisor Xu complimented.
As soon as he said that, Li Dexin glared at Staff Officer Xu. His meaning couldn't be more obvious.
Advisor Xu smiled apologetically. He did not dare to say anything further.
After handing over the leadership and command of the team to Zhang Xiaohou, everyone felt as if they were liberated.
With Li Dexin leading the team, everyone was on tenterhooks. They were even on the verge of a mental breakdown after being tortured by the patrolling lesser demons. At this moment, the group of them was like they were on a scenic tour. They easily traversed the long mountain valley.
There were indeed some demon creatures living in the Rift Valley, but Zhang Xiaohou had dealt with most of them in his own way. The team only needed to deal with the demon creatures that they could not avoid..
...... they had to end the battle as fast as they could without alerting a single plant or tree nearby... they had to leave the place as soon as possible.. they were not allowed to stay........
Zhang Xiaohou was very familiar with the habits of the Qinling Mountains. The density of the demon creatures was too high. He was not allowed to use destructive spells without making sure that he was in a safe environment. It would end up like when he was harassed by the patrolling beasts.
"I feel like Zhang Xiaohou is a lot more like a soldier than the soldiers of the Violet Imperial Battalion. He's so cautious. It's obvious that he has been trained and tested countless times," Bai Hongfei said.
Bai Hongfei had spent some time traveling. He was well aware of how Zhang Xiaohou had acquired his sharpness and familiarity.
"He's a Major General, after all … speaking of which, Zhang Xiaohou was quite confident when we were dealing with the Black Vatican in the north!" Zhao Manyan said.
"The north? The Black Vatican? "Bai Hongfei's eyes glittered after a brief moment of surprise.
About half a year ago, Bai Hongfei had also traveled to the Northern Frontier. He had heard from some old magicians about what had happened in the Northern Frontier. Bai Hongfei had a rough idea of what had happened there, but it seemed to be highly confidential. Very few people knew the real situation.
To Bai Hongfei's surprise, Zhao Manyan and Zhang Xiaohou were among them. They had obviously taken part in the operation!
The old Mages were extremely respectful toward the people who had taken part in the operation …
Mo Fan glared at Zhao Manyan.
Zhao Manyan opened his mouth. He was about to say something, but he decided against it.
As a matter of fact, he really wanted to say that the Great Pyramid of Giza had been involved in such a shocking incident, yet they had insisted on keeping it a secret. How was he supposed to brag about it to the others?
"Teacher, I've already signed a contract to sell myself to Fanxue Mountain. I've heard about what happened in the north, but the information I've collected is incomplete …" Bai Hongfei was eager to learn more about the incident.
"Speaking of which, Zhang Xiaohou was only promoted to Major General because of what he had done in the north … (Sigh), why is everyone else getting all the benefits? We were just idiots who went all the way to the Pyramid. Why did the country give us the title of Guardian of the Nation?" Zhao Manyan grumbled.
"A Pyramid? Is there really a Pyramid!? "Bai Hongfei blurted out in excitement. His eyes were fixed on Zhao Manyan.
"…" Mo Fan realized that Zhao Manyan could not stop talking. He let Bai Hongfei be, since he was not an outsider. However, considering Zhao Manyan's personality, Mo Fan did not forget to add, "If it's not suitable for children, you should censor it yourself."
"Got it, got it!" Zhao Manyan nodded.
Zhao Manyan was well aware that he could not tell anyone about the Ancient King, nor could he tell anyone about Mo Fan's Demon Element …
The journey was relatively safe. Zhao Manyan told Bai Hongfei how they managed to track down a Red Cardinal from the Black Vatican, how they went through the Great Wall to guard the army of undead, and how they worked with the Black Vatican to protect the Magic Fire Beacons along the Great Wall.
Apas and Yu Shishi were listening to Bai Hongfei's story, too. They had no idea what was going on. Zhao Manyan was an expert storyteller. They were completely absorbed in the story!
Zhao Manyan let out a relieved sigh when he saw the change in their expressions, "Wow … that feels great, that feels great!"
"Why do I feel like you heard it from somewhere?" Yu Shishi twisted her lips. She subconsciously glanced at Mo Fan. She had a feeling that Mo Fan was not the kind of person who would be so righteous. He might look like a pervert on the surface, but he was a shameless man on the inside!
"If I lie to you, I'll never be able to get a erection!" Zhao Manyan swore the cruelest oath he had ever made!
"Teacher, you really are my idol. I admire you so much. I knew you had a unique temperament when I first saw you. I believed I would have a bright future if I followed you. It seems like I wasn't wrong!" Bai Hongfei went up to Zhao Manyan and blurted out exaggeratedly.
