Chapter 59 Changes

I have to admit, it feels so good to show off.

This forced him to pretend for a long time, and now that the opportunity was before him, it would be unjust if he didn't seize it in time.

But after having the pleasure, he couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed.

Fortunately, this sword subdued the barbarian army and scared them away.

Otherwise, there would be no way to resolve the matter today.

With an army of 300,000, he would probably have to kill them until his hands cramp.

"General Lai is mighty!"

"General Lai is mighty!!!"

At this moment, thunderous cheers came from the city walls, and Lai Yang couldn't help but be slightly startled.

Just now he wanted to complain, when did he become a general? Why didn't he know it?

Or is it just a nickname they use to refer to themselves?

Soon, two martial arts masters from Beijiang City appeared in front of Lai Yang. They looked respectful with a hint of shock and said, "Thank you, General Lai, for helping me to rescue Beijiang City."

"When did I become a general?" Lai Yang asked puzzledly.

"Before the prince left, he gave us a secret order, telling us to ask you for help if we encounter any troubles that we cannot solve. It was also at that time that the prince told us that you are the Divine Sword General of our Northern Frontier City."

"But the prince also warned us not to disturb the general unless necessary. We will be responsible for all affairs in Beijiang City."

You're forcing someone to do something unmanageable, aren't you? Lord Mo, you've become a general without even knowing it.

"This is the general's identity token. Please accept it."

As he spoke, one of them took out an exquisitely carved token, with the words "God" and "Sword" written on the front and back of the token respectively.

Lai Yang subconsciously reached out and took the token of General Excalibur and looked at it. He didn't say much.

After all, since coming to Beijiang City, he has owed many favors to Lord Mo, so it is only natural for him to lend a little help.

Although we encountered many troubles in the process, the results were generally good.

If the barbarians were allowed to invade the city, the consequences would be disastrous. He didn't want to move to another place so soon.

"Does the General have any plans?"

"You guys can handle it yourselves. If a strong enemy attacks, I will take action, but I won't take care of other things."

Hearing this, the two looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief.

It is a good thing for them that the other party is unwilling to interfere in the military affairs of Beijiang City.

After all, if the layout of the city is disrupted, it will be easy for someone to take advantage of it.

Moreover, they had no idea how capable this Divine Sword General was in other aspects besides his cultivation.

It’s not that they looked down on Lai Yang, it’s just that he looked too young and didn’t seem to be good at military affairs.

After Lai Yang left, the two men quickly ordered people to clean up the battlefield and sent people to patrol nearby to prevent any spies from the northern barbarians from spying in secret. All actions were carried out in an orderly manner under the orders of the two men.

A few days later, battle reports came from the front line again, but this time the news was not good news.

The 5,000 troops led by Lord Mo launched a surprise attack, but were unexpectedly betrayed and ambushed, resulting in them being trapped for more than half a month. Fortunately, reinforcements arrived in time at the critical moment, preventing the entire army of thousands of people from being wiped out.

The message sent back was simple, but there was a deep sense of danger between the lines.

If you are not careful on the road of rebellion, you may fall into an abyss and die.

Later, over the next six months, news was sent back from the front line one after another. Lord Mo led his army in dozens of battles with the army of the Great Yan Dynasty, large and small, and killed countless enemies.

They captured no less than five cities. Wherever they arrived, they chose to open the granaries and distribute grain, and then encouraged the poor people who were oppressed by local gentry to revolt and join their army.

In this way, although they had lost a lot of combat power due to the battle, after repeated reinforcements and the spontaneous joining of others, the number of troops was actually greater than before they went south.

And this raging fire will continue to sweep across the entire Great Yan Dynasty.

At the same time, Lai Yang felt that his cultivation level seemed to have reached a bottleneck.

It was March when Lord Mo left. By then he was already a fifth-grade martial arts grandmaster.

Now it is autumn, and the next winter will come in January or February.

He could feel that his physical body was getting stronger day by day, but because he lacked key skills, he was still unable to successfully enter the next level of martial arts.

The skills he was practicing now were no longer sufficient to allow his martial arts skills to further break through to the fourth level.

The fourth-grade martial arts technique is not only not available in the Wu Palace, but may not even be found in the treasury of the Great Yan Dynasty.

It can only be obtained by seeking opportunities in secret realms or entering a certain immortal cultivation sect.

From the ninth level to the fifth level of martial arts, the emphasis is on strengthening the physical body. As long as the physical body becomes stronger, breakthroughs will come naturally.

But after reaching the fourth level of martial arts, it is no longer possible to break through by simply tempering the body. Instead, one needs powerful techniques to build one's own martial arts foundation and completely transform oneself.

It can be said that only after entering the fourth level of martial arts, can one truly enter the threshold of cultivation and have the qualifications to pursue immortality.

Lai Yang was not anxious about this.

After all, with the system plug-in in hand, he doesn't need to deliberately pursue immortality.

Even if Lai Yang's cultivation level cannot be broken through, as long as he lives long enough and his body becomes stronger, he can still achieve sainthood in the flesh, become invincible in the world, and cut off all obstacles that stand in his way.

The broad road to sainthood is already before him, he just needs to walk on it steadily.

Unconsciously, the climate in Beijiang City gradually became colder.

It has been about a year since Lai Yang started living in Beijiang City, and he is almost familiar with the entire city.

Since Lord Mo was away, Mo Ruyan, as a princess, temporarily took over Lord Mo's duties as the city lord.

The city lord had a lot of work to do, and sometimes she had to be busy for a long time before she could find time to meet Lai Yang.

During the year that Lord Mo led his troops south to rebel, Mo Ruyan's temperament changed a lot.

Compared to a year ago, she is less lively and agile, more mature and stable, and more charming.

Just like a green fruit quietly matures.

Boom boom boom…

There was a knock on the door of Lai Yang's courtyard.

After a while, the gate of the yard was slowly opened.

Mo Ruyan had a warm white fox fur coat on her shoulders, a snow cloud brocade robe on her body, a jade pendant and a sachet hanging around her waist, and her beautiful long black hair was tied up and fell to her waist, making her look graceful and charming.

Mo Ruyan and Lai Yang looked at each other. Snow flakes were floating between the sky and the earth, and everything seemed so beautiful.

"It's been a month since we last met, have you missed me?"

A happy smile appeared on Mo Ruyan's face.

"Yes, come in." Lai Yang nodded slightly, motioning Mo Ruyan to enter the house.

"Long time no see, come for a walk with me." Mo Ruyan invited with a smile.

Lai Yang nodded without hesitation: "Okay."

Lai Yang went back to the house to get his sword and put it on his back. This had become his habit when he went out.

Mo Ruyan didn't mind, and the two of them left the house and walked slowly on the streets of Beijiang City.

Several guards followed the two from a distance to protect Mo Ruyan's safety.
