I only seek to enjoy the present moment, regardless of dying in a foreign land tomorrow. With a blade in hand, I'll slay demons and men alike. "Ladies and gentlemen, please be on your way!&...
574 Night Raid
He clasped his hands in a respectful bow to everyone present and said solemnly, "Thank you all."
Yun Baiyi smiled gently and said, "You're too kind. As comrades-in-arms, we should support each other."
We're all serving the adults, and it's our wish to contribute even in our small way.
Wei Si, Zhang Dazhuang, and others nodded in agreement.
Shanlong said softly, "Lord Ren, there's no need for such formality. It is our duty to serve you and your wife."
After finishing their late-night snack, Ren Pingsheng said softly and cautiously, "This area is currently being cleared out, and it should be almost over by now. The roads are also temporarily blocked."
Although efforts are being made to prevent the information from leaking out, with so many people watching, it will likely be difficult to control for long.
After pausing for a moment, thinking about the information he had obtained, he continued, "People in other states and counties may have received the news in advance, and I estimate that they are already prepared."
It's even possible that some people have already left.
Our people have difficulty penetrating deep into their territory.
This has alerted other states and counties, who are likely to take corresponding measures in response, which is quite normal.
Although information flow wasn't as fast as it is now, many people still paid attention to these life-or-death matters.
Yun Baiyi smiled slightly, her brows furrowed. "If other states and counties are already prepared, it will be much more difficult for us to take action."
Moreover, if they have already left, taking them back would probably be even easier.
but. '
Her tone shifted, her sharp eyes revealing a hint of surprise, and she said softly, "If it's merely to reclaim these few states, wouldn't our coming here be somewhat of a disappointment to Miss?"
Their purpose in this trip was indeed merely to reclaim these states; they had no particularly important mission or responsibility.
Yun Baiyi glanced around at the group, noticing their thoughtful expressions, and said softly, "This is my own thought, not an order from Miss or the General."
Unifying Dalong Prefecture is exactly what Miss needs right now; a stable Dalong Prefecture only requires one voice.
Ren Pingsheng, Wei Si, and the others nodded slightly. Dalong Prefecture must be completely unified. Only with a stable rear can we face any possible turmoil at any time.
The news of the great battle between the Xuanji Sect and the destruction of Xizi Prefecture, which was so shocking, finally reached their ears.
Silence, silence, this time everyone fell silent.
Like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, creating ripples, complex expressions appeared—some shocked, some angry, and some worried.
From disbelief to the realization that it is true.
What's even more frightening is that the leader of the Xuanji Sect, the vice leader of the Snake Demon Sect, and two Martial Emperors all died here.
The Red King himself was also seriously injured.
Looking at the questioning expressions on everyone's faces.
Yun Baiyi nodded slightly and said in a low voice, "We just finished eating tonight, so we've decided to set off tomorrow."
Why don't we set off now, forming an assassination squad, with our soldiers following closely at dawn?
Ren Pingsheng nodded slightly and asked in a deep voice, "Target!"
The others nodded in agreement, clearly agreeing with Yun Baiyi's words. Some things cannot be done by waiting for instructions from the adults; some troubles need to be eliminated all at once, leaving no loose ends.
Yun Baiyi took a deep breath, his voice low and firm: "Red King, Xuanji Sect, Xizi Prefecture... these are things we cannot touch at present, nor are they things we can get involved in."
The master and mistress have their own arrangements for this matter.
Looking up at the bright moon, a beautiful wish filled my heart.
The voice was like a gentle breeze, yet it carried an undeniable firmness, a decisive and resolute killing intent.
He lowered his head and spoke softly, his gaze firm, "The county towns below Yansha Prefecture are definitely beyond our reach for the time being."
However, we must act swiftly to secure the resources in the remaining states, lest things escalate and become unpredictable. If all these people escape, they could become a difficult problem to eliminate in the future.
Although it's not a major problem, it's still a potential threat. Since we've taken action, we must be decisive and see it through to the end.
Before this trip, the man in black also held this view.
The words, like a bolt of lightning, pierced the silence. All eyes were on him, but Yun Baiyi faced the situation calmly, knowing that this matter required everyone's concerted efforts.
When Wei Si, Ren Pingsheng, and the others heard Yun Baiyi's words, they couldn't help but nod in agreement.
They also understood that the "people" Yun Baiyi was referring to were enemies who might escape, unstable factors, and some evil followers.
If they are allowed to escape, they may indeed become a troublesome problem that is difficult to eliminate in the future, after all, the cultivation of evil spirits is too strange.
Ren Pingsheng smiled slightly and said softly, "In that case, speed is of the essence in war. Why don't we just send a few of us, while the rest of the soldiers set off with the main army at dawn? This will confuse some people."
Zhang Dazhuang nodded and said, "I'll do whatever you say."
Looking at Shanlong again, he said in a soft, teasing voice, "Shanlong, you should hurry up and get married after this. I've heard you have several women you like."
Once the son-in-law has so much land, supporting one or two more wouldn't be a problem.
Shanlong's face showed a hint of embarrassment, and he blushed slightly. He quickly whispered, "Brother Dazhuang, it's still just talk about inviting you to barbecue when we get back. I don't know if the girl is willing."
I'm rarely home these days, so even so, it has to be something the other party agrees to.
The others chuckled softly.
A knowing smile slowly appeared on his face.
The moon was bright and the stars were few; the crows were silent, and only a few bats occasionally flew by, busily catching pests.
In the vast land of Qianzhou, only a few places occasionally had firelight; the rest was pitch black.
In the distance, there seemed to be wild animals lurking and watching.
Wes sighed softly, "Since you took over, ghosts and monsters have rarely appeared. It feels like life has changed drastically, as if we're living in two different worlds."
Less than a year has passed in the blink of an eye, yet it feels like an eternity.
Six months ago, the frequent appearances of ghosts and monsters brought fear, unease, and death.
Now, with the adults in charge, monsters have become rare, and life has gradually returned to peace.
In a daze, it felt like a lifetime had passed.
Everyone's gaze involuntarily turned to the distance.
A great battle is about to begin, and that is the battlefield they are about to head to.
A great battle is about to begin; a swift and decisive victory is required.
I will do my utmost to live up to your expectations.
The moonlight shone on them, illuminating their resolute gazes and determined figures.
Zhang Dazhuang, sword in hand, grinned and chuckled softly, "When I get back, I'll hurry up and get married and have children. In such a wonderful place, it would be a disservice to our ancestors not to have more children."
Under the moonlight, Ren Pingsheng led the way, with Zhang Dazhuang, Yun Baiyi, Wei Si, and four others walking through the air.
The six figures moved like lightning across the night sky, disappearing in a flash.
It moved at an extremely high speed, as if it had broken free from the constraints of the air and traversed the night sky directly.
