It was a middle-aged man in white who was stepping on a sword light. He was like a sword immortal who had descended to the mortal world. Even the armies of the two countries, which numbered close to a million, had to revere him!
The foremost person of the Qing Kingdom, Gu Jianqiu!
The Military Advisor of the Qing Kingdom was known to be victorious in every battle. With his own strength, he had allowed the Qing Kingdom to leap from a dynasty to the level of an imperial court.
One of the top five experts in the Northern Region!
The middle-aged man slowly looked at a certain corner in the pass and said with a faint smile, "Brother Qi, why don't you come out and meet me?"
As soon as he said this, 300,000 people couldn't help but look at the top of the city wall.
A few seconds later, a faint sigh sounded in the void. Then, a thin old man in a purple Taoist robe slowly walked out.
"State Preceptor!!!"
At this moment, the soldiers of the Great Sect shouted in unison!
Imperial Advisor Qi Tiandao!
The stabilizing force of the major dynasties!
The old man in the Taoist robe staggered until he was less than a hundred feet away from the middle-aged man. He slowly stopped and stared at the latter. "What's the difference between seeing him or not?"
"I still have to meet him!"
The middle-aged man smiled faintly. "After all, 300,000 soldiers of the Qing Kingdom have come to invade tonight. How can you sit back and relax?"
"You don't dare to fight!"
The old man in Taoist robes coughed repeatedly. He stared at the former and said with absolute certainty, "The Qing Kingdom cannot afford to fight!"
"His Majesty didn't let me fight in the first place!"
The middle-aged man said calmly, "His Majesty also said that we only need to hold back Brother Qi, which is better than holding back your million-strong army!"
"What's the point?" The old man in the Taoist robe sighed.
"Since we have nothing better to do, why don't we have a game?"
The middle-aged man waved his sleeve and a chessboard appeared in the air. He chuckled and said, "Fellow Daoist Qi, I think you won't refuse this request of mine, right?"
Without saying a word, the old man in Daoist robes grabbed through the air and sucked a black chess piece onto the chessboard!
The other party was right!
Indeed, he could not refuse!
Tonight, the 300,000 soldiers of the Qing Kingdom were guarding the pass. Their goal was to restrain him and make the killing within the country a foregone conclusion.
Even if he knew the other party's goal!
But he still couldn't refuse!
Because he was the State Preceptor of a major dynasty!
After the middle-aged man put down a white chess piece, he said with a faint smile, "Brother Qi, your blood and Qi are deficient, and you won't be able to live for long. Recently, His Majesty obtained an immortal medicine. As long as you are willing to forsake the darkness and seek the light, you can extend your lifespan by another sixty years!"
"It's an immortal medicine, yet it can only increase lifespan by sixty years. How can it be called an immortal medicine?"
The old man in the Taoist robe was extremely calm. "In this world, there are people who live, and there are people who die. There are flowers that bloom, and there are flowers that wither. This is the Heavenly Dao, and it is the principle of nature. Why should I be entangled in living an ignoble life?"
"What a pity …"
The middle-aged man sighed. "You've protected the sect for over a thousand years, but you still can't change the outcome. After tonight, your sect will fall into endless internal strife."
"That's not necessarily true …"
The Daoist robed old man smiled.
"What? Fellow Daoist Qi, don't tell me you still have some hidden tricks up your sleeves? "
The middle-aged man said noncommittally, "Your sect is strong in martial arts and weak in literature, and disasters occur one after another. In addition, the Eight Kings are madly sucking the blood of your sect. Just a 20-year-old girl and a 10-year-old young Emperor cannot change this."
"Even in this situation, if the Qing Kingdom wants to completely destroy your sect, it will still take some time!"
After he put down a chess piece, he raised his eyes to look at the other person. "But what a pity, you made a wrong move. You actually let the current empress dowager take the risk alone and go to a place surrounded by wolves."
"Since it's a game of chess, how can there be a wrong move? “
The old man in the Taoist robe's expression was calm. "Naturally, it is to deal with the moves as they see them, and even to make risky moves. As the saying goes, heaven and earth are the chessboard, and all living beings are the chess pieces. Although you and I are playing a game of chess, have you ever thought that you and I are the chess pieces of someone else?"
Hearing this, the middle-aged man secretly frowned.
…
Near the break of dawn, Longyuan River.
Above the rippling surface of the river, the sky gradually brightened. A giant bird flew low on the surface of the river, its speed becoming slower and slower.
Feeling the giant bird's strength, Liu Fei said with heartache, "Uncle Pelican, can you still hold on?"
"I can still hold on!"
The giant bird said weakly, "Princess, we're about to cross the Longyuan River. We'll reach the capital in another 500 kilometers! “
"That's great! “
Liu Fei was pleasantly surprised. "As long as we return to the capital, the empress dowager will be safe. By then, we can think of a way to save my father!"
Ye Chen secretly shook his head when he heard that.
Before he left, he had left a wisp of Divine Consciousness on King Langya. Four hours ago, he dared to sense that the wisp of Divine Consciousness had dispersed.
That meant …
Moreover, although everyone had been unobstructed along the way, the eight kings were not fools. Although they did not know their route, they just needed to stop them on the path they had to take!
As expected!
As if to verify Ye Chen's guess, after the giant bird flew 150 kilometers forward, it saw countless eagles circling in the sky far away.
The lady in black's pretty face changed slightly, "Those are the eagles used by the army. They're the best at detecting auras. Why are there so many of them here? “
"There's someone below!"
Xue Ying suddenly cried out!
Everyone lowered their heads and saw that on the ground in the distance, there was a long black shadow that seemed to cover all directions. There was even the roar of ferocious beasts.
"There are at least 100,000 of them!"
Liu Fei's pretty face instantly turned pale!
The lady in black smiled in despair, "Looks like our whereabouts have been exposed. The eight kings have sent people to intercept us here!"
She could not help but despair!
This was the only way to the capital. Although they were flying high in the sky, there were still eagles monitoring the entire sky from afar.
As long as they continued forward, they would definitely be discovered by the eagles, and they would become the target of public criticism.
At this moment, everyone felt their bodies sway, and they realized that the giant bird beneath them was falling rapidly.
The giant bird said weakly, "Princess, I can't take it anymore. You guys should run for your lives!"
At the next moment!
In the distance, several eagle cries sounded out one after another, and then a black mass of eagles flew towards everyone.
In the blink of an eye, dense arrows tore through the sky like locusts.
"I found them!"
"They're there!"
At the same time, countless shouts rang out. Then, countless figures with powerful auras flew over.
Xue Ying exclaimed, "Oh no, we've been exposed!"
"Quick, return quickly!" Liu Fei panicked.
At that moment, a calm voice rang in everyone's ears, "No need!"
"Mr. Ye, you …" Liu Fei was confused.
Ye Chen carried his daughter with one hand and freed up his other hand. He waved his sleeve and wrapped the few of them around him. He fell from the sky and landed heavily on the ground!
Liu Fei was so anxious that she was about to cry, "Mr. Ye, they're here. What should we do now? “
"It's simple!"
There were two balls of golden flames jumping in Ye Chen's eyes. His calm voice was heard, "Of course, we're going to kill them!"
