Puppet emperor?Summon three thousand Xuanjia troops at the beginning

"saint……"

Jiuli Xuan spoke with difficulty.

Although the Master Craftsman said this, he did not really think that he had no responsibility in this matter.

In other words, in his position, even if he has no responsibility, it is absolutely impossible to escape the consequences of such a problem.

Even if he thinks he has done his best, as long as the final result is not good, it is inevitable for him.

"Things are really bad right now."

The Master Craftsman spoke.

“But you don’t need to worry too much, Da Gan’s power is beyond my imagination.

They actually have more than one strong person above the ninth level. This time, it seems that they did something wrong by attacking the Python Dynasty..."

He sighed.

If this decision had not been made, the current Jiuli Dynasty would still be stable.

The Master Craftsman spoke calmly.

As long as I am here, the sky in Jiuli will not fall! "

Hearing these domineering words, Jiuli Xuan finally felt relieved.

"This chessboard looks familiar."

Hearing these words, Jiuli Xuan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Although he didn't show any momentum, he knew that it was a power that only a half-saint could possess.

After he said half a sentence, he stopped talking, for fear of causing the dissatisfaction of the craftsman saint.

There is indeed some ability, not only killing the chess master, but even defeating a half-sage in his heyday, but even among the half-sages, there is a huge gap.

Watching Jiuli Xuan leave.

The Craftsman Saint chuckled.

"You are Mr. Shouzhuo?"

Once they annex the Big Python Dynasty, their Jiuli Dynasty will be able to have absolute dominance among many surrounding kingdoms.

So it was not only Jiuli Xuan who made this decision, but also him.

But no one thought of it.

Moreover, this is the capital of Jiuli Kingdom, where my luck is destined.

But if he was given another chance, he would still make that decision.

This war between two dynasties actually ended in failure because of a seemingly weak Daqian dynasty.

"Gather the forces around you and prepare for a decisive battle with the Daqian Dynasty."

The Craftsman Saint did not disappear, he looked in one direction.

Then he saw a scholar sitting in a pavilion with a chessboard in his hand.

The Master Craftsman spoke, although he was questioning, but he was extremely sure.

That's a huge leap forward.

Finally he asked with some hesitation:

Xuanyuan Jingcheng answered, and then he made a gesture of invitation, inviting the Master Craftsman to sit down.

When the Half-Saint spoke, this matter naturally became worry-free.

"Haha, that Mr. Shouzhuo?

"It is indeed down there."

"I heard that the half-saint from Daqian has extraordinary strength..."

That's a great opportunity.

How could Jiuli Xuan dare to do such a big thing without his consent?

"Now that the dynasty still has the strength to fight, I will give you a killing weapon. Seventy miles away, the Blackwater River is their cemetery."

"This is something I found from the big python some time ago. It should be the item belonging to the chess master."

He spoke.

The Craftsman Saint did not hesitate and sat directly opposite Xuanyuan Jingcheng.

But he knew it very well.

Even a half-saint like him couldn't resist such temptation.

With just one step, the Craftsman Saint crossed the space and walked outside the capital city.

"In that case, I will go and prepare."

There he felt an extremely powerful energy.

Even the Big Python Dynasty was destroyed because of this, and their Jiuli Dynasty has reached the point where it is now.

"I see."

The Master Craftsman nodded, expressionless.

Show off your power?

He sneered inwardly.

This kind of action is really too childish.

"How about you and I have a hand-to-hand talk?"

Xuanyuan Jingcheng spoke.

The Master Craftsman was not afraid of the stage and said directly:
"Being respectful is worse than obeying orders."

Then the two of them started playing chess, one holding black and the other holding white.

The atmosphere between the two was harmonious, without the slightest hint of murderous intent, and they looked like they had been old friends for many years.

However, the two methods of playing chess are completely different.

Xuanyuan Jingcheng's chess style seemed to be fair and peaceful, but Craftsman Sheng was the complete opposite. Every step was murderous and there was no room for maneuver.

"Your Majesty's weapon is too powerful."

Xuanyuan Jingcheng spoke.

The Craftsman Saint frowned slightly. In the current chess game, he was somewhat at a disadvantage.

This didn't make him happy.

Back then, even if he was playing against the chess master, he could still play well.

Although he will definitely lose in the end, he is not like Xuanyuan Jingcheng. No matter how he attacks, it is like hitting a ball of cotton.

It looked extremely awkward.

After hearing Xuanyuan Jingcheng speak, the Master Craftsman sneered and said:

"You are too peaceful. If you want to win, you can't just retreat."

Xuanyuan Jingcheng touched the beard on his chin.

I don't care much about what he said.

Not long after, the Master Craftsman dropped the chess piece in his hand.

He lost!
The defeat was very straightforward, and it also made him feel very dissatisfied.

When this person plays chess, there are escape routes everywhere.

He didn't consider confronting him head-on at all, but this method made him feel extremely embarrassed.

There is even a feeling of being overwhelmed.

The Craftsman Saint looked at Xuanyuan Jingcheng who was still smiling and snorted coldly:

"Playing chess is just a trivial matter. You and I both know the current situation and we will eventually have to play a game."

Xuanyuan Jingcheng did not refute this.

This is what they need to face now.

However, both of them are semi-saints and have already walked a different path.

At this point, even if it means killing, there is no need to be as explicit as a national warrior.

"Playing chess is indeed just a small way, but sometimes you can see the big from the small. In fact, you can already see how it is in the end."

The craftsman's eyes were fixed on Xuanyuan Jingcheng.

The reason why he was willing to come here was not to fight Xuanyuan Jingcheng.

Because he knows the current situation.

He was already at an absolute disadvantage.

There must be other semi-saints around them, but these semi-saints have not revealed their bodies.

But it's just like the previous battle with the python.

There are always some half-saints hiding behind and unwilling to show their faces.

Only like when Big Python Chess Saint went to Daqian, because the speed was so fast that no one could react, there would be no semi-sage watching.

So no matter what, he was unwilling to directly collide with Xuanyuan Jingcheng at this time.

Once both of them lose.

In fact, he lost.

Those half-saints might not let him go, who was seriously injured.

After all, Jiuli Shangguo has the word Shangguo.

Being able to destroy a great country here is something that any Half-Saint likes to see. It's just that when they reach the stage of semi-saint, they have a deep consideration of the word luck.

Therefore, they cannot easily destroy an empire's dynasty themselves.

However, if a seriously injured semi-saint can be killed to achieve the purpose of destroying this dynasty, that is another concept.

In his mind, Xuanyuan Jingcheng should have the same idea.

But he didn't know that Xuanyuan Jingcheng really didn't care much about this.

He just wanted to meet the Master Craftsman.

He wanted to see the ways of this world so that he could perfect his own holy path.

The way of the saint is all-encompassing.

It was by no means easy to enter, and in his current situation, he couldn't even see the saint's path.

So he was a little confused at the moment.

But after all, he wasn't too anxious.

After all, he has not been in this world for a long time, and he does not know much about the nature of this world.

So he believes that as long as he knows more, he will always find that path.

I saw that the Craftsman Saint had no intention of continuing the conversation.

Xuanyuan Jingcheng didn't care anymore.

"Next time we meet, I'm afraid you will be on the opposite side. I hope fellow Taoist friends will not be lonely on their journey."

Saying that, Xuanyuan Jingcheng made a long bow.

"hypocritical!"

The Master Craftsman waved his sleeves and disappeared immediately, leaving only Xuanyuan Jingcheng who still didn't get up.

After a long time, Xuanyuan Jingcheng stood up.

Then he slowly put away the chessboard, just like an ordinary person.

"This chessboard is excellent. Fortunately, it is not damaged."

He muttered to himself, everything seemed so calm and calm.

It was as if everything in this world was not in his heart.

After being informed by the Craftsman Saint, Jiuli Xuan immediately issued an edict.

Mobilize the surrounding armies and assemble towards the Blackwater River.

Jiuli Heishui River, it is said that there was a decisive battle between two ferocious beasts in ancient times.

The entire Heishui River is as dangerous as an evil spirit, extremely dangerous.

Rapid rivers can sweep away anything.

This can be said to be the natural defensive zone of the capital of Jiuli.

It can even be said that the reason why the capital of Jiuli Kingdom is located here is because of the existence of this river.

This is also one of the reasons why many dynasties set their capital not far from the river.

Ran Min and the others had no idea about all this.

After killing the powerful joint forces sent by Daxuan and Jiuli.

Huo Qubing and the others began to approach Ran Min.

For them now, the most important thing is to annihilate the enemy's main force.

Occupying more land is not as important as before.

After all, they have now reached the vicinity of the capital of Jiuli.

In the end, the two armies will inevitably gather near the Blackwater River. This is also the route they have set from the beginning.

They also knew very well that if the Jiuli Dynasty planned to resist, it would definitely be here.

The weather is getting colder.

The north wind was bleak, making people feel a little lonely while marching.

Li Yuanba was still sitting on his mount as before, holding a drum, urn and golden hammer in his hand.

Although the body is extremely thin, such a terrifying appearance makes people feel extremely domineering.

With Huo Qubing on the side, he seemed to have less presence.

Only people in the military know.

The two generals in front are both terrifying and powerful men.

"General Ran and the others are probably almost at the Blackwater River, but it will still take some time for us, and we don't know what the situation is there now."

Li Yuanba didn't care much about these things.

"Are there no new people to assassinate?"

He was bored again these days.

Hearing this, Huo Qubing suddenly showed a look of helplessness on his face.

Although he likes to fight, he doesn't like to fight every day.

But Li Yuanba is completely different.

For Li Yuanba, it seems that as long as he can fight, it is the greatest meaning.

Huo Qubing could not understand such a mentality.

"How could there be so many assassinations?

After experiencing that battle, the Jiuli Dynasty may have no means at all. Maybe we won’t encounter any decent resistance until we reach the capital. "

He said lazily.

Although the strength of Jiuli Dynasty is powerful, it is still limited after all.

The war has been going on till now.

How many powerful men have died in the Jiuli Dynasty?

Even if their strong men can produce them in batches, they should be able to defeat them.

What's more, the person behind Jiuli is dead above the ninth level.

At this point, how could the other party continue to invest in the Jiuli Dynasty.

Then it is not an investment, and then something goes wrong.

Listening to Huo Qubing's words, Li Yuanba's eyes showed visible disappointment.

But Huo Qubing then said:

"Although there should be no strong men in the Jiuli Dynasty, don't forget that they still have half-saints!"

There was a bit of ambition in Huo Qubing's eyes.

His strength is not yet above the ninth level, but he has already found that way.

As long as he continues step by step, he will definitely become a strong man above the ninth level.

But this is not his goal at all.

What he wants is to become a true semi-saint, or even the legendary saint.

And to achieve this step, the path he sees now is not enough.

If we could witness a semi-holy battle again.

Maybe it can light the way for his future.

At this moment, Li Yuanba's spirit became extremely exciting, and a terrifying aura swept over the entire army.

His excitement was clearly displayed at this moment.

Half Saint!

He wanted to use his hammer to hit the head of the powerful Half-Saint man!

The last battle was with the semi-holy python.

But the python was almost dead.

But even so, they also felt a huge obstacle.

But the situation is different now, and he clearly feels that his strength is gradually improving.

If he encounters that semi-holy python again, he will definitely not be as embarrassed as before.

But now he has no expectations for the semi-holy python.

What he wants is a true battle of strong men.

Craftsman Saint seems to be a very good target.

When Huo Qubing saw Li Yuanba's appearance, he immediately knew that he had aroused his emotions.

"We are still far away from the capital of Jiuli Kingdom. Why are you so excited now?"

Seeing Li Yuanba regain his composure, the ambition in Huo Qubing's eyes did not disappear at all.

Li Yuanba wanted to see the power of that semi-saint strong man.

He thinks too!

But with his current strength, he will definitely die if he fights with the opponent, so he is now considering how to further improve his strength.

If he could reach the ninth level, he might be qualified to collide with the powerful semi-saint.

But now he doesn't know what to do to get to that point.
