Chapter 176 Let's go back to the room and talk slowly (Please subscribe~)

At this time when the Qin army was at a disadvantage, the greatest significance of this victory report was not as simple as defending a city or capturing a general.

But it can greatly boost morale, and this is the key!
The great and brave Qin Earl won a great victory in the first battle and captured the enemy's main general alive. Just this small number was enough to inspire every Qin soldier.

However, the result was exactly as Wang Jian had expected. After the battle reports were distributed to the three war zones of Qin State, they quickly caused a great response from various armies.

In contrast, the Wei army was furious, especially the Le family, who were clamoring to destroy Xuanyuan Pass.

But this was just impotent rage. In this battle, almost all the main forces of the Wei army were out, each doing their own job. Moreover, it was not long before the war started, and they were all busy, so how could they have the energy to take revenge?

If they really want to rescue Le Huang, they have to send a strong man or take a city in exchange.

As the youngest Qi Containment Realm expert of this generation in the Le family, his potential is unquestionable. It is also because of this that the Le family members are in a very bad mood.

We can't just ignore it!
Of course, their anger could not affect Wu Fengdeng in Xuanyuan Pass.

In the quiet room, he was sitting cross-legged practicing martial arts. He could clearly see the spiritual energy lingering in his dantian, which had already taken the faint shape of a six-petal lotus.

The shapes of elixirs vary depending on the method used.

The process of moving from the Tuodan realm to the Cangqi realm is the process of solidifying the elixir.

The flames were swirling, and quickly returned to calm as Wu Fengdeng's training ended. The lotus shape was floating in the air, but it did not disperse.

"Condensing the elixir is indeed a long process. If I practice step by step like this, I really don't know when I can condense it." Wu Fengdeng sighed slightly.

The transition from practicing martial arts to cultivating immortals is a huge hurdle in cultivation. Throughout history, countless people have been stuck at this level and died in depression.

This is about diligence, but more about talent.

Therefore, there are only a few hundred strong people in the Qi Containment Realm in the entire Shenzhou Continent, and below them are hundreds of millions of ordinary people.

Those below the level of Zang Qi are all ants, and have been like this since ancient times.

dong dong!

"Brother Fengdeng, the escort personnel are already in place."

It was Jiang Qiyu's voice outside. Wu Fengdeng pushed open the door and pointed to several carriages not far away.

"Okay, we'll go and get Le Huang ourselves."

Although the Wei army is now unable to take care of itself, Wu Fengdeng has to prepare for the worst. After all, Le Huang has an extraordinary status, and it is not impossible for the Le family to free up manpower to come and rescue him.

However, Xuanyuan Pass still has no one at the true Qi Cang Realm to guard it. Even if Wu Fengdeng and Jiang Qiyu are capable of fighting, they are helpless against Ling Kong Yufeng.

Therefore, to be on the safe side, it would be safer to send Le Huang to Xinzheng, where Wang Jian is in charge and can completely keep the situation under control.

So he sent a letter yesterday and got permission from Xinzheng to escort him back via the official road today.

In death row.

"What are you doing!"

Le Huang looked at the soldiers walking towards him in horror, struggling and yelling, as if he was afraid that Wu Fengdeng would execute him today.

"Don't be nervous, I'm just moving you to a new place. If you continue to stay here, I won't be able to sleep or eat well."

Wu Fengdeng waved his hand, and Li Qun and others behind him lifted it up together with the iron frame.

"You...you...you want to send me to Xinzheng?!" Le Huang looked even more panicked.

He had just barely managed to send a letter for help through his family's special means. He thought someone would come to rescue him soon and firmly believed that he would be able to get out alive.

No matter how capable Wu Fengdeng is, can he stop the family masters from taking him away?

As long as he flies into the sky, there is nothing he can do!

But he never expected that Wu Fengdeng would actually transport him away!

"Of course, when you arrive in Xinzheng, your life or death will depend on fate."

"Shut your mouth."

"Here!"

"Woo!!"

Amidst Le Huang's sobs, he was still forcibly stuffed into the carriage and the iron cage was fastened tightly.

"General Wu, then I will set off!" Li Qun clasped his fists and asked for instructions. After Wu Fengdeng nodded, he led the team away.

The escort team gradually disappeared in the snow, and Wu Fengdeng withdrew his gaze and looked back towards Xuanyuan Pass.

At this time, five days had passed since the last victory. The eastern city wall had been rebuilt day and night, and the soldiers were building defensive fortifications on it.

In the city, shops and stalls that were forced to close due to the war in the past have gradually opened, and people have resumed their own livelihoods, which seems to be much more relaxed than before.

With the soldiers and civilians busy with their own things, Xuanyuan Pass suddenly became very lively and prosperous.

"It's not easy."

Wu Fengdeng sighed, and Jiang Qiyu beside him smiled and said, "Brother Fengdeng is a good leader. The people of Xuanyuanguan are so lucky!"

"Have you learned to flatter me too?" Wu Fengdeng pinched her little face.

"It's true."

"I don't believe it. Let's go back to the room and talk slowly."

……

It was getting dark, and when Jiang Qiyu poked her head out of the quilt with a flushed face, the sound of the night watchman's bell could be heard outside.

"You continue to sleep, I will go to practice."

"Well, come back early then."

After bidding her a reluctant farewell, Wu Fengdeng put on his cotton armor and prepared to go to the training room to practice.

Now he has not been able to advance to the Qi Conservation Realm, which is a fatal shortcoming for him. Therefore, whenever he has time, he will shut himself in to practice, and he has been quite obsessed with it in the past few days.

However, when he was about to walk to the training room, he suddenly heard a rapid fluttering sound in the air. Wu Fengdeng looked up and saw that it was a white-beaked carrier pigeon raised by the Qin army!

Military intelligence?!

He raised his arm, and the pigeon's claws grabbed directly on the cotton armor, and the wings retracted, revealing the creed at his ankle.

Unfolding it, there were not many characters on it, but Wu Fengdeng's pupils shrank slightly after reading it...

Soon, all the deputy generals rushed to the lobby of the county government and quickly gathered together.

Wu Fengdeng sat on the chair and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, I just received a letter from Xinzheng that the situation in Hechi City is critical and urgently needs support."

"Hechi City? I remember that they had the best fighting situation a few days ago, right?" Wu Longfeng said in surprise, and the others were also quite confused.

In the earlier battle report sent by Xinzheng, apart from their Xuanyuan Pass which was the only big victory, the rest of the cities were ranked as the best by Hechi City.

Wang Jian's youngest son, Wang Xu, was able to fight against two people in the Cang Qi realm without being at a disadvantage, and his subordinates also defended the city with all their heart. It's only been a few days, why do they suddenly need support?

You must know that due to the current shortage of manpower, we will not send troops to other places for support unless necessary.

Wu Fengdeng shook his head and continued, "The letter didn't specify the specific situation, but they only asked me to go to support Wang Xu, and our brothers and sisters didn't move."

"I guess that there must be a problem with the two Qi Containment Realm masters that Wang Xu is dealing with, and he cannot resist them alone. It so happens that there is no war here for the time being, so they asked me to go and help Wang Xu." After he explained this, everyone nodded and said nothing more.

Wu Fengdeng continued, "I plan to leave for Hechi City soon, so the defense of Xuanyuan Pass will be handed over to you."

"Everything should proceed according to our pre-arranged plan. Keep the troops in place and rest up. If the enemy attacks, let General Wu take over the command temporarily."

"Miss Jiang will stay to deal with the Wei army's Qi Conservation Realm."

Wu Fengdeng could not put the Xuanyuan Pass, which he had defended with great difficulty, into danger without top combat power just because he went to provide support.

If we really talk about combat power, I am actually not as good as Jiang Qiyu, but the latter lacks experience, so it is not difficult for her to deal with the Cangqi Realm.

"Any objections?"

"I will follow General Wu's arrangements!"

"Okay, come back."

Wu Fengdeng did not delay any longer. He took the mechanism box from Qingdai and after giving a few simple instructions to Jiang Qiyu, he spurred his horse and headed straight for Hechi City.

At this time, that city.

Beacon fires flickered in the dead of night. The Qin army had just repelled another wave of attacks from the Wei army and was rushing to repair the city walls and move corpses. The noise was even louder than during the day.

In the Hechi County Government Office, the candlelight is dim.

呲!
But then there was a sound of flesh being torn apart, and a palm-sized piece of flesh and blood was stuck to the ground, splattering blood.

"hu~hu~"

A handsome young man was sitting on a chair, gasping for breath with a pale face. There was a bloody wound on his shoulder with three flesh pits, which was a horrible sight. There was also a bloody scimitar next to him.

"Apply medicine."

Wang Xu said in a deep voice, and several military doctors nearby hurried forward with bottles and jars.

"Damn Yin-Yang family! If I hadn't been so vigilant this time, I would have really fallen into the trap of that old immortal!"

The Le family elder Le Gan who is facing Wang Xu this time is middle-aged, and his strength is mediocre in the early stage of Cang Qi Realm, so he is not to be feared.

But the bad thing is that there is another Yin-Yang master god, the Mountain Ghost!
This guy's whereabouts are unpredictable and he loves to use shady tricks, but even so, Wang Xu was able to hold his ground when fighting one against two.

He thought he could continue to fight with these two people, but he didn't expect that in the battle the day before, the mountain ghost got some strange poison from somewhere, which caught him off guard.

He nearly lost his life at that time. After the war, he realized that it was impossible to hold the city on his own, so he sent a letter for help to Xinzheng.

In today's battle, the mountain ghost's sharp blade finally scraped his body. If he hadn't decisively peeled off his skin and flesh, he would have died of the poison.

But does he have to rely on this method to deal with it every time?

Wang Xu's face became increasingly gloomy. It wasn't that he was afraid of the pain, but if he used this method of cutting flesh too often, it would cause great harm to himself.

"I don't know if Xinzheng has coordinated the support forces yet. I guess they will mobilize Wu Fengdeng from Xuanyuan Pass. After all, it's relatively peaceful there right now."

"The two cities are more than 800 miles apart. Even the fastest horse would take eight hours to get there. And that's just the best plan."

"If the coordination fails, or if an enemy suddenly appears at Xuanyuan Pass, I really can't count on anyone..."

As they thought about it, several military doctors around him straightened up, breathed a sigh of relief, and then bowed and said, "General Wang, your wound has been bandaged."

"Ah."

Wang Xu put on his clothes expressionlessly. His left arm still hurt terribly when he moved it, which was a little unbearable even for him.

The sky gradually brightened and the sun gradually filled the earth. When the sun was at noon, it became cloudy and cold again.

The horseshoe prints stretched across the vast snowfield, and only stopped when they reached a steep slope.

Call ~
The sky was filled with white mist. Wu Fengdeng looked far to the west. At the limit of his vision, he could only see black dots the size of sesame seeds in the vast expanse of white.

"Finally arrived, I hope the city is not lost." He said softly, and when he was about to continue on his way, he inadvertently caught a glimpse of a few pedestrians in his field of vision.

Look closely.

"Hiss... This outfit looks like the Yin-Yang family, the Xuanming dark system?"

There were five men, wearing wide silk robes of fine quality with the unique dark symbols of the Yin-Yang School on them, pushing a carriage towards Hechi City.

A pitch-black coffin was placed on the carriage, standing out against the white snow.

"Mountain ghost, Yin-Yang family, black coffin..."

Wu Fengdeng couldn't help but think of the information he got when he interrogated Le Huang before. It seemed that the mountain ghost stayed in Hechi City for something special.

Thinking about what he saw before him, it was hard for Wu Fengdeng not to feel that there was something fishy going on.

Since there is a conspiracy, smash it!

Wu Fengdeng did not hesitate and immediately took out the real weapon from the box behind him and drew his bow and drew his arrow.

shhhhhh!
There were five consecutive shots, and the five Yin-Yang School disciples were all shot to death on the spot before they could react to where the arrows came from, and bright red blood spilled all over the ground.

"drive!"

Wu Fengdeng rode his horse closer and looked through the five bodies. After not finding any useful clues, he turned his attention to the black coffin.

As I got closer, I felt that the surrounding sky and earth were even colder, as if there was a negative energy constantly emanating from above.

"Is there a dead body lying in here?"

Wu Fengdeng's face became alert. He immediately called out Yanri and cautiously pushed open the coffin lid.

However, nothing happened.

He frowned and moved closer, only to find that the eight-foot coffin was empty.

"What use does the mountain ghost have for this empty coffin? Is he planning to collect his own corpse? Oh, that's very particular."

Wu Fengdeng complained, his expression becoming increasingly serious as he sneered.

Of course, he would not think that the mountain ghost prepared this for him. Such a large coffin that had obviously been specially treated must be used to hold objects.

Perhaps, this is the purpose of the mountain ghost coming to Hechi City.

"No matter what, as long as we can destroy the Yin-Yang family's plan, it will be more beneficial to me. I wonder if this coffin can be burned."

Wu Fengdeng summoned the red lotus fire from his dantian, intending to burn it.

However, what was strange was that the red lotus fire, which was said to be able to burn everything, actually automatically avoided the black coffin when it came into contact with it, as if it was very afraid of it.

"Is it blessed by some strange power? Most likely, the Red Lotus Karma Fire is top-notch spiritual energy, there shouldn't be anything that it would be so afraid of and dare not touch."

"It's probably because my cultivation is too shallow and I haven't been able to exert its true power. On the other hand, the person who exerted power on this coffin must be at least at the Qi Conservation Realm."

Wu Fengdeng retracted the flame, and after a moment's hesitation, he dug a hole in the snow and buried all the corpses around him in it.

In fact, this approach was too rough. The Yin-Yang School might have some guidance on how to find it, but he had no other choice.

After all, the purpose of this trip is to provide reinforcements, and he cannot spend too much energy on dealing with it, and he has no idea at all.

After simply marking the place, Wu Fengdeng set off again on his journey. Soon he heard a little noise mixed in the wind.
