Chapter 236 Ge Xiantong
Yao Xingyue, the leader of Yao Li, was already waiting outside the city gate to pick people up. He clasped his fists towards Li Weiyi, his words of gratitude expressed unspokenly.
Li Weiyi knew from Yao Xingyue's eyes that there must be an expert rushing towards the city gate. He returned the greeting and left quickly, heading towards the north city.
I sighed in my heart: "The little nun still has a conscience!"
Li Weiyi observed very carefully and could see that the truth of suffering did not care so much about the life and death of the truth of origin. The reason for the compromise was that he just wanted to use Li Weiyi's hand to release the person.
…
…………
North city.
The imperial court's largest stronghold in Qiuzhou city, the governor's mansion, was breached by Zuoqiumen last night with the help of both inside and outside forces.
But now, the governor's mansion has become a refuge for the Zuoqiu clan and the Jiuli tribe's martial artists. Cangli, Li Ling, Li Jiufu and other martial artists of the Jiuli tribe all retreated here.
It’s not that they don’t want to retreat back to South City, but they can’t.
The number of enemies was several times theirs, but they were able to hold out until dawn only because there were enough formations in the governor's mansion and they were well preserved.
Li Weiyi did not dare to approach the governor's mansion.
On the streets a few miles away from the governor's mansion, many martial artists from the imperial court, the Far West Ashes Region, and the Snow Sword Tang Court could be seen guarding every street corner.
Ge Xiantong and Luan Shenglin You must be somewhere nearby. This place can be said to be extremely dangerous.
In the south city, it was mainly Longmen and Leixiao Sect that were attacking, and they were responsible for destroying the various strongholds established by Zuoqiu Sect. The main forces of the imperial court, the Far West Ashes Region, and the Snow Sword Tang Court all gathered in this urban area, surrounding the governor's mansion like an iron barrel.
Li Weiyi wandered around the fringe, listening to various information and thinking about ways to rescue him.
If the governor's mansion was breached, how many people would be put on the barbecue, how many people would be beaten to their knees, stripped of their clothes, and lose all their dignity. The evil spirits in the Ashes of the Far West have methods that can definitely make people wish they were dead, but they cannot live.
And the war in reality will only be more cruel than this.
In reality, the Ashes of the Far West are coming to Lingxiao from the west to conquer human territory. Even a junior like Li Weiyi can see it clearly. It is an inevitable trend.
The loser loses more than just his life.
Li Weiyi walked around the marginal area where the three major forces were deployed, feeling extremely heavy-hearted. There were many experts, and the Five Sea Realm formations were set up one after another. Great mind masters were setting up formations in every street...
There are so many top masters, two hundred powerful masters, I'm afraid nearly half of them are gathered here.
In this situation, let alone Li Weiyi, even if ten Li Weiyis rushed in, there would be no trace left.
…
Provincial governor's office.
After a night of attack from three major forces, everyone was exhausted, but they didn't dare to rest and tried their best to recover their magic energy and mental power.
Cangli sat on the palace wall that was as tall as a city wall, with his right arm hanging down. He was the one who was left alone during the chase last night and had his bones broken by Luansheng Linyou, almost following in Yinjiu's footsteps.
Li Ling's mental power was severely depleted, the three hundred golden arrow talismans were almost destroyed, and he had many wounds on his body.
The Zuoqiu clan suffered heavy casualties, with nine powerful men from the Seventh Sea killed in the battle, each of them a renowned genius in the state. Now the body lies coldly on the ground, covered with a white cloth.
Everyone was in low spirits, knowing that it was a blessing to be able to hold on until dawn. Faced with the encirclement and suppression of the three major forces, complete defeat is only a matter of time.
If there is an option to surrender, some of them will definitely be very tempted.
Zuoqiu Hongting was wearing a wooden mask and a green Taoist robe, her entire body stained with blood. Last night, she fought one against two to intercept Ge Xiantong and Luan Sheng Linyou, and she also suffered serious injuries.
But under the mask, her eyes were still sharp, without a trace of dejection.
Walking up to Cangli and Zhu Yibai, she stood on the wall of the mansion, handsome and upright like a battle flag, and looked at Luansheng and Linyou who were sitting in the center of the street in the distance. She asked in a low voice: "Do you two regret cooperating with me?"
Zhu Yibai lay on the ground with his eyes wide open, not wanting to move his eyelids. "What are you regretting? The Qianlong Lantern Festival is just a test run for the world's situation. If we lose, at least we have helped Zhumen to find a wrong path, which means that cooperating with Zuoqiumen may be a dead end. It's good and valuable."
Cangli said: "No matter how much you regret, the Jiuli tribe and Zuoqiu Sect have been on the same boat for a long time. The Far West Ashes are coming with great force, and the court is unable to take care of itself. If we can't get the support of Du'e Temple, how can the South and West regions resist? This is not a personal battle, it's a matter for the whole world!"
Zuoqiu Hongting smiled and said, "You two are able to see beyond the Qianlong Lantern Festival and see the world situation. This is the vision that a true inheritor should have. In fact, you don't have to be so discouraged. According to the strength of the five major forces, we should have died last night if they joined forces. Why are we still alive now?"
Many eyes were cast towards her.
Zuoqiu Hongting was full of energy: "Because the five major forces cannot cooperate sincerely, they did not stop fighting secretly last night. It would be good if we can exert 60% to 70% of our strength!"
"Lu Cangsheng and Long Dian have not yet arrived in North City, which means they have not yet eliminated all our bases in South City."
Cangli shook his head: "That shouldn't be the case. With the strength of Leixiao Sect and Longmen, they should have cleaned up South City long ago."
Zuoqiu Hongting said: "So, something must have happened in South City... Hey... Li Weiyi..."
Li Ling and Cang Li immediately stood up and looked into the distance along the direction of Zuo Qiu Hongting.
Ten miles away, on the wall of the inner city.
Li Weiyi stood on the top of the towering city wall. He let out three long roars and then disappeared.
Several experts rushed out from the camps of the imperial court and the Far West Ashes Region and gave chase.
Cangli was confused: "What does he mean? Even if he leads away a few masters, it won't change the overall situation, and he will put himself in danger."
Zuoqiu Hongting's eyes sparkled under the mask: "Li Weiyi is not a reckless guy. He must have a deep meaning for doing this."
"Even if you have deep feelings towards Ge Xiantong and Luan Sheng Lin You, it will be a dead end." Zhu Yibai said.
Zuoqiu Hongting didn't think so. Suddenly, she had an idea: "I understand! The direction he was standing just now was facing the area where the imperial court martial artists were. Maybe he was telling us to break out from this direction."
Zhu Yibai sat up: "Fighting Ge Xiantong and Chen Ziliang? I would rather fight Tang Wanqiu."
Li Ling said, "I think Sister Hong's analysis makes sense. Li Weiyi would never run over there and howl three times for no reason. He must be trying to send us a message and cooperate with us from inside and outside."
Zuoqiu Hongting suddenly chuckled: "I know how to break the impasse! Apart from the governor's mansion, where is the biggest stronghold of the imperial court?"
"Of course it is the Attendant's Palace located in the south city." Cangli said.
Zuoqiu Hongting said: "To break the situation, we must first break the balance of power in the city. The imperial court and the Far West Ashes are too powerful. Only by crippling one of them and giving the other side an opportunity to eliminate its biggest competitor can Zuoqiu Clan escape the deadlock of being besieged."
Zhu Yibai was overjoyed: "You mean, at all costs, severely damage the imperial court, and then capture the Palace of Attendants. Let Luansheng and Linyou see the opportunity to deal with the imperial court, the biggest opponent?"
Zuoqiu Lancheng said, "Isn't this too difficult? It is still unknown whether we can break out of the encirclement. Then, we have to attack the Attendant Palace with an exhausted army. Any step is as difficult as ascending to heaven. And even if we succeed, it will only be a wedding dress for Luan Shenglin You."
"It is difficult, but this is our only chance to change the situation. Only by causing the current balance of power to collapse and letting the Luansheng and Linyou fight against the imperial court, can we have a glimmer of hope."
Zuoqiu Hongting said, "It's decided! Right now, we can only choose to trust Li Weiyi. Since he howled three times... notify everyone to quickly recuperate and attack from the direction of the imperial court in three quarters of an hour. This is the battle of life and death."
…
…………
Li Weiyi changed his body shape and clothes, and ordered a bowl of beef noodle soup at a noodle restaurant at the bridge head by a big river.
He sat facing the store door and could see boats passing by from time to time on the river, which was more than ten feet wide.
By the bridge, a storyteller in a Confucian robe was recounting several fierce battles that took place last night.
"The blue sky is dead, the yellow sky should be established. In the year of Jiazi, the world will be blessed."
When the old man shouted this slogan, everyone applauded.
Li Weiyi always felt that the voice of the old man in Confucian robes was familiar. He circulated his magical energy to his eyes, wanting to see what he looked like.
Suddenly, a figure flashed before his eyes. An uninvited guest sat opposite him, blocking his view, and shouted in a delicate voice: "Owner, please cook me a bowl of noodle soup."
The owner of this delicate voice is a boy of fifteen or sixteen years old. His skin is as white as porcelain, his eyebrows are dark and his eyes are clear. He wears a white robe that is not stained by dust and a jade crown on his head. His temperament is elegant and noble, which is out of place in this environment.
But he is very easy-going, always smiling and polite.
Li Weiyi's noodle soup was served first. He hesitated for a moment after holding it in his hands and asked, "How about you go first?"
The handsome young man waved his hands quickly: "Everything has a first come first served, how can I grab your face? Just like, this is obviously the territory of the High Heaven Palace, if everyone comes to grab it, there will be chaos in the world and the people will suffer. If the rules are broken, everyone will have to pay for the person who broke the rules."
Li Weiyi said: "Didn't the territory of Lingxiao Palace also come from the hands of Leixiao Sect?"
"It was indeed like this when Wu Tianzi was here. But in the catastrophe a thousand years ago, Lingxiao Habitat was destroyed once. It was the Grand Palace Master who created a new Lingxiao Habitat for the people of the world. Without the Grand Palace Master, there would be no living creatures in Lingxiao Habitat today."
The handsome young man said, "You seem to know who I am?"
Li Weiyi drank a mouthful of noodle soup and sighed, "Do all the people in your court have noses like dogs and eyes that can see through everything?"
The handsome young man said, "Since you have escaped, you should not show up again. You know, my name is not Ge Xiantong, but Ge Xiantong. It's just that when I was a child, I always followed the Grand Palace Master and looked like a boy, so I was mistakenly given this name."
Li Weiyi said: "Misinformation is harmful! I thought that the Art of Disguise was an amazing technique in the world, but I didn't expect to meet its nemesis. Do you really have a pair of immortal eyes?"
Ge Xiantong looked at Li Weiyi carefully, observing his eyes: "Strange, really strange, didn't Jiang Ning bring the message to you, why are you not afraid of me at all? Don't you know that I am here... to kill you?"
As soon as the word "kill" came out, a cold murderous aura immediately enveloped the entire store.
The wind can't blow in and no sound can come in.
The soup noodles in the bowl were no longer steaming, and all movement was suppressed.
"I'm already blocked here by you, so what's the point of being afraid? You're a very important person, Ge Xiantong, you're not in a hurry for a bowl of noodles, right?"
Li Weiyi started eating noodles.
"No hurry, I just fought all night and I'm hungry!"
Ge Xiantong took out a pair of chopsticks, stood up quickly, and reached out to take the soup noodles brought by the store owner.
The murderous aura has been temporarily suppressed.
