Chapter 159 Outwitting the Empress



Liu Yi was just smiling.

Maoqiu's complexion was somewhat similar to Shen Sanmu's.

“Bian Lang, I’m not joking. It’s truly remarkable that His Majesty has made such a concession. I hope you can seize this opportunity.” Shen Sanmu couldn’t smile.

Bian Lang laughed and said, "Does Lord Shen mean I should cut off my head now so you can take it to that poisonous woman?"

Shen Sanmu nodded.

As long as Bian Lang is willing to commit suicide, it doesn't matter what she's called the Empress.

The crux of the matter is this: if Bian Lang dies, the great war can be avoided, and many people will not have to die. This is the best outcome.

Bian Lang said calmly, "Although there have been many times when I didn't want to live and wanted to die but failed, that was because I wanted to die. But if someone else wants me to die, I will let them die first."

“Bian Lang, I know you are strong, but you are by no means the strongest in this world, so I still want to advise you to face reality and not do anything unnecessary,” Shen Sanmu said.

Bian Lang raised his hand and said, "Please take care, Lord Shen."

With a flick of his wrist, Shen Sanmu's body flew backward swiftly. Just as he reached the sky above the Tongtian River, he was sucked down by the river and plummeted downwards.

Shen Sanmu remained completely calm, tossed out the magic gourd, landed on it, and quickly sailed towards the opposite bank.

"Such aggressive tactics, they really want to start a fight quickly," Liu Yi said angrily.

Dugu Qiusheng also wanted to say something harsh, but he felt that with his strength, he could easily lose his life in this battle.

In battle, he should stay by Bian Lang's side. That way, if his life is in danger, Bian Lang will surely come to his aid.

Shen Sanmu returned to the other side, entered the wooden palace, and relayed Bian Lang's words.

The Empress, sitting behind the beaded curtain, chuckled upon hearing this and said, "This fellow is quite interesting."

"Your Majesty, what's next..." Shen Sanmu asked cautiously.

The Empress said, "After the formation is complete, pave the way with gourds, and let the beasts charge first."

"Yes," Shen Sanmu replied and slowly withdrew.

The herd they brought this time included not only fierce tigers, lions, and wolves, but also unicorns, pixiu, and hou.

The herd of beasts charged forward, leveling mountains and filling seas with their power.

The elite troops could be deployed very quickly; tens of thousands of people could do it simultaneously, and the formation could be successfully set up in less than two hours.

The troops that were deployed arrived first, so at most half an hour later, they could begin paving the way and launching the attack.

When Shen Sanmu went over just now, he felt something was strange. There couldn't possibly be only three people with Bian Lang. Where were the others?

What they feared most were the multi-headed tribe.

Don't be fooled by the absence of multi-headed tribes on the shore; they're likely hiding in the shadows, ready to appear at any moment.

"When do you think they will launch their attack?" Dugu Qiusheng asked.

Liu Yi said, "Let's finish setting up the formation first."

The purpose of setting up the formation was to prevent anyone from escaping in the chaos.

"When will the formation be completed?" Dugu Qiusheng asked again.

Liu Yi said speechlessly, "Go ask them."

Dugu Qiusheng chuckled, mainly because he was too nervous and kept wanting to talk.

Bian Lang laughed and said, "Now is the time."

Bianlang could sense the situation even further along both sides of the river.

The enemy's troops are numerous, highly skilled, and efficient, able to set up the formations they need in a short time.

"Doesn't that mean they'll attack immediately? But our men haven't arrived yet..." Dugu Qiusheng said, his eyes wide.

Bian Lang said, "If we're just guarding this place, we don't need many people at all."

In Bian Lang's opinion, after the formation is completed, the Empress should first eliminate the Tongtian River.

However, it will probably take a very long time for this Tongtian River to disappear completely.

The Empress is extremely busy and cannot stay here indefinitely. Therefore, she will use the magic gourd to cross the river first, deal with them, and then go to eliminate the Tongtian River and mine the spirit ore.

"So many magic gourds!" Dugu Qiusheng suddenly exclaimed.

Bian Lang looked up and saw rows of magic gourds rapidly spreading towards him from the other side of the river.

Those magic gourds were all strung together, and when they were laid out, they instantly created a broad road across the Tongtian River.

They thought this river-crossing magic weapon was a rare item, but in front of the Empress, it was just like roadside weeds.

Clearly, there were countless magical tools for crossing the river, but they were controlled by the imperial court.

"Boss, we arrived just in time, didn't we?" Sun Wuse suddenly appeared.

The multi-headed animals of the Misty Forest were hiding in the rear, ready for battle.

Bian Lang said, "Let that bitch see what we're made of."

Sun Wukong's eyes were filled with excitement.

Ta-da...

A chilling sound suddenly came from the opposite bank, and soon everyone saw a huge herd of beasts.

The horde of beasts surged out from beside the Empress's wooden palace, kicking up clouds of dust as they moved faster and faster.

Even when they reached the Treasure Gourd Avenue, the beast horde showed no sign of slowing down.

"So many unicorns..." Dugu Qiusheng's breathing became rapid.

He had previously discovered a unicorn and wanted to tame it as a mount, but the unicorn beat him up badly.

A single unicorn is terrifying enough, but a swarm of unicorns is as terrifying as a nightmare.

Liu Yi said, "Pixiu, Hou, and it seems there's also a Qilin, this..."

No one could have predicted that the Empress would send out a horde of beasts to scout ahead first.

Among the herd of beasts are even more ferocious creatures that only exist in legends.

"Lion, you go," Sun Wukong ordered.

Hidden in the shadows, Shi Wushou led his pride of lions to the shore, where they all roared and looked up.

Even the weakest lion in a pride has two heads, while lions with three heads are considered the main force.
