at this time.
Inside the central military camp.
Beside Cao Meng, his deputy, the Earthly Mad Star General Yang Da Kuang, spoke.
"General Cao, speed is of the essence in warfare."
"Before the reinforcements from Kyoto arrive, let's launch a surprise attack and catch Luo Yuantai and his men off guard."
"At that time, Kyoto will be in our hands, and the entire Great Xia will be ours."
Cao Meng leaned back comfortably in the large chair, smiled, and said.
"The elite troops from the war zones closest to Kyoto have long been transferred to Dragon Island to participate in the battle there."
"Even if they go to Langya Prefecture to mobilize troops, they won't be able to reach the capital until the day after tomorrow at the earliest."
"From Haidong, it only takes us half a day to march to Kyoto."
"So, what's the rush?"
"I'll use this time to kill Ye Feng and let everyone see what happens to those who oppose me."
"Hmph, even if Luo Yuantai and the others see through my true intentions, what can they do to me?"
"Soon, those so-called bigwigs in the Ministry of War will become my prisoners."
"I have to admire James's wisdom; he calculated every single step."
James is Cao Meng's supplier in the United States.
Even so, Yang Da Kuang still felt somewhat uneasy.
However, he was well aware that Cao Meng was stubborn and self-willed, and once he made up his mind, it was difficult for others to persuade him.
Now, we just hope to resolve Ye Feng's situation as soon as possible.
Then he could lead his army to attack Kyoto.
However, an army of 100,000 can overwhelm one person.
It looks like they're using a cannon to shoot down mosquitoes.
Thinking of this, Yang Da Kuang felt relieved.
...
At this moment, at Tingchao Pavilion, not far from the riverbank.
Dongfang Sheng stood with his hands behind his back in front of the window on the top floor, looking down at the 100,000-strong army in the distance, remaining silent.
Today is also the day he and Ye Feng agreed to a duel.
However, plans are subject to change, and given the current sobering situation, the duel is clearly going to be canceled.
Because Ye Feng couldn't possibly walk out alive.
"What a pity."
Dongfang Sheng shook his head, let out a long sigh, and his back view exuded an indescribable loneliness and desolation.
I thought I had found a formidable opponent and could have a good fight.
Who would have thought that something like this would happen?
It seems I'm destined to be alone for the rest of my life.
It is indeed a regrettable thing that there are few worthy opponents.
No wonder ancient books record that some top swordsmen, after defeating all opponents in the world, would choose to sheathe their swords, retire to the mountains and forests, and live a carefree life.
Beside him, the ghost servant seized the opportunity to interject.
“Master, even without this army of 100,000, Ye Feng would still be no match for you.”
"Master is the only Heavenly Realm martial artist in Jiangnan Prefecture, an invincible existence. A mere Ye Feng is not even qualified to carry your shoes."
Nearby, a few sycophants gathered, all saying the same thing.
"That's right. Mr. Dongfang is the leader and the one who carries the banner in the martial arts world of Jiangnan Prefecture. Ye Feng is nothing."
"Mr. Dongfang could beat Ye Feng to his knees and call him father with just one hand."
"You flatter me. Although I am invincible in Jiangnan Prefecture, I should still be humble."
Dongfang Sheng spoke modestly, but his face was full of arrogance.
He was clearly used to being praised by everyone.
In his moment of triumph, Dongfang Sheng picked up his pen and began to scribble on the paper.
"Heroes rise and fall with the times; once you enter the world of martial arts, time flies by."
"Imperial ambitions and great achievements are discussed in jest, nothing surpasses a good drink in this world."
His calligraphy is vigorous and powerful, revealing a resounding and fierce aura between the lines.
The crowd cheered.
"Beautiful calligraphy!"
"The gentleman's calligraphy is unique and has perfectly integrated calligraphy and martial arts."
"Sir's achievements are unprecedented and may never be surpassed."
The crowd showered him with praise once again.
Dongfang Sheng was smug and couldn't help but take a sip of wine.
I thought to myself, Ye Feng, you should be glad you didn't run into me today.
Just then, someone with sharp eyes pointed out the window and shouted something.
"Look, Ye Feng is here."
Everyone quickly looked out the window.
A streak of light flashed across the sky and landed steadily on the riverbank.
