Chapter 213
Chapter 213
"Could it be that Fate still has hidden forces???"
Mao Yunkai said with a gloomy face.
Mao Yunkai's words made everyone silent, and then they looked at each other and saw the solemnity in each other's eyes.
No one wants to believe that Fate still has hidden troops, but if there are no hidden troops, why is Fate so calm when he is attacked at his doorstep? This is obviously not in line with common sense.
It's impossible to capture Shui Ling but lose Fate. That would only be more embarrassing.
"No way! If Fate really had that many troops, it would have already established itself as an empire."
A deputy general on Shui Ling's side said in disbelief.
"No matter what, we must prepare for the worst."
Xuanyuan Xingyao said in a deep voice with an expressionless face.
Shui Ling paid such a huge price and asked Ou Ya to take action just to lure away the Fit army from the border.
Even if we cannot lure away all of them, but only take away most or even a small part, the pressure on the border can be reduced a lot, or even win directly.
But if Fate still has hidden troops, then it means that everything Shui Ling has done is in vain, and their next battle will still be very difficult.
"The prince is right. We must not let our guard down at the Fite military camp. We must keep a close eye on them."
Mao Yunkai glanced at everyone with sharp eyes and said in a deep voice.
The speculation that Fate might have hidden troops made everyone feel unhappy, and the short meeting ended quickly.
After Xuanyuan Xingyao left the main tent, he prepared to return to his own tent to rest.
Ever since Nangong Jing left, Xuanyuan Xingyao no longer lived in the City Lord's Mansion, but lived in the military camp.
According to him, this is more convenient, but is it really so? Only Xuanyuan Xingyao himself knows.
Xuanyuan Xingyao moved into the military camp after Nangong Jing left, so Nangong Jing didn't know about all this.
Therefore, when Nangong Jing returned to the City Lord's Mansion on the Swift Eagle, he did not find any trace of Xuanyuan Xingyao.
After asking, I found out that Xuanyuan Xingyao had moved to the military camp.
There was no other choice, Nangong Jing could only rush to the military camp.
When Nangong Jing appeared in front of Xuanyuan Xingyao, Xuanyuan Xingyao almost thought that he was hallucinating because of excessive longing.
It was not until Nangong Jing walked in front of Xuanyuan Xingyao that Xuanyuan Xingyao realized that all this was true and Nangong Jing had really returned.
Xuanyuan Xingyao didn't care that he was still outside, and directly pulled the person into his arms, hugging tightly the person he missed so much.
"I'm back."
There were people all around, and although Nangong Jing felt a little embarrassed, he could not resist his longing and love for Xuanyuan Xingyao, so he buried himself deeply in Xuanyuan Xingyao's chest.
"I'm glad you're back. Did everything go well?"
Xuanyuan Xingyao was not someone who liked to show his emotions. After slightly relieving his longing for Nangong Jing, he let go of Nangong Jing.
Of course, although the person let go, the hands were still held.
"It went smoothly, I guess. I successfully passed the third and fourth levels this time and received two rewards. These two rewards must have been specially prepared for us. Although they are not exactly the same as those in Fate's, they are somewhat similar. I think you should be able to use them."
Because they were still outside, Nangong Jing couldn't explain too clearly, but he knew Xuanyuan Xingyao could understand.
Xuanyuan Xingyao naturally understood, but he was a little confused about what "we" meant!!!
"us???"
Xuanyuan Xingyao asked back in confusion.
"Yes, the reward for the third level is about mental strength, which is very suitable for me. But the reward for the fourth level is a complete collection of formations. I have no idea about this. I can tell it's prepared for you."
When talking about this, Nangong Jing still felt a little resentful. He worked hard to pass the level, but in the end the reward was given to someone else.
Even though this other person is the one Nangong Jing loves the most, Nangong Jing still feels a little uncomfortable.
Xuanyuan Xingyao looked at Nangong Jing's resentful expression and couldn't help laughing.
"Nangong Qishao is back? How's it going? Did you find anything useful?"
Xuanyuan Xingyao and Nangong Jing originally wanted to express their true feelings to each other, but unfortunately, before they could get enough affection, they were interrupted.
Xuanyuan Xingyao wanted to get angry when he heard that familiar loud voice.
But looking at Mao Yunyuan's anxious expression and thinking of the sacrificed soldiers, Xuanyuan Xingyao understood Mao Yunyuan's anxiety.
"I did receive some rewards. As for whether they can be used to defeat the Fate army, I'm not very clear about warfare. I'll have to decide for you generals."
Nangong Jing would not be so foolish as to promise that he could definitely defeat the Fit army. What if he failed? That would be giving people hope and then disappointing them, which would be too torturous.
Although Nangong Jing did not give a definite answer, his words were exciting enough.
Having a solution is better than them having no solution at all or even being completely clueless.
"Seventh Young Master, you must be tired after such a long journey. We just had a battle with Fate, so things should be quiet for the next few days. Why don't you go back to the tent and rest? We can discuss this in detail tomorrow."
Although Mao Yunkai was very excited and wanted to immediately pull Nangong Jing to discuss the matter, he still had some rationality.
Mao Yunkai knew how much Xuanyuan Xingyao cared about Nangong Jing, so he was very considerate and let Nangong Jing go and rest first.
When Mao Yunyuan heard that Mao Yunkai actually asked Nangong Jing to go and rest first, he immediately wanted to say something, but Mao Yunkai stopped him with a look.
With Nangong Jing's current mental strength, not to mention that they have only been traveling for less than two days, he would not feel tired even if he traveled for several days in a row.
Nangong Jing also knew that the current war situation could not be delayed. According to Nangong Jing's personality, he would definitely reject Mao Yunkai's kindness.
However, this also involves the two rewards that Nangong Jing received from Wuwang Tower. Both of these rewards are somewhat special.
Whether to bring out everything or just some things that can be said, Nangong Jing still needs to discuss with Xuanyuan Xingyao.
Therefore, Nangong Jing pretended not to see Mao Yunyuan's anxious eyes, nodded gratefully at Mao Yunkai, and then followed Xuanyuan Xingyao back to the tent to rest.
Xuanyuan Xingyao also knew Nangong Jing's character. When he saw that he agreed, he guessed that he had something to tell him, and it was very likely related to the reward he received in Wuwang Tower.
Sure enough, as soon as I returned to the rest tent, I heard Nangong Jing say.
"Ayao, do you think I should tell you the Thousand Threads Technique and the complete array formation?"
"It's fair to say that after discovering that Fate was using a formation, I sent a message back to have my eldest brother investigate. He also found some clues about the formation. Thousands of years ago, there were formations on the continent, but for some reason, the tradition was lost."
Xuanyuan Xingyao said in a deep voice.
Nangong Jing showed an expression of surprise but expectedness when he heard this. Just as he guessed, there really had been a formation on the Dragon Shadow Continent, but it had been lost for some reason.
"In that case, there's nothing wrong with taking out the complete set of formations, but do you mean we shouldn't take out the Thousand Threads Technique?"
Nangong continued to ask.
Xuanyuan Xingyao did not answer immediately, but asked about the effects of Qiansi Jue.
After hearing that practicing the Thousand Threads Technique could not only increase the magical beast's cultivation but also enhance its mental strength, Xuanyuan Xingyao had an idea in mind.
"You can talk directly about the complete array formation, but for the Thousand Threads Technique, just explain that it can be used to control magical beasts to increase their cultivation, and that it has no side effects. There's no need to elaborate on anything else. Even the details about controlling the magical beasts' cultivation increase don't need to be too detailed. Just give them a general idea of why Fate's soldiers' cultivation suddenly skyrocketed."
After listening to Xuanyuan Xingyao's words, Nangong Jing had an idea in his mind.
Nangong Jing knew the anxiety in the hearts of the generals, so he didn't keep them waiting for long.
Without waiting until the next day, after a short rest in the afternoon, he took the initiative to find Mao Yunyuan and Mao Yunkai.
Mao Yunkai was fine, but Mao Yunyuan, who was more impatient, didn't know how he got through this afternoon.
Seeing Nangong Jing coming to him on his own initiative, he was so happy that he couldn't wait to ask.
"Seventh Young Master Nangong, do you have any clues from this trip to Wuwang City?"
Facing the hopeful eyes of Mao Yunyuan and Mao Yunkai, Nangong Jing nodded calmly.
But he didn't say anything right away. He waited until everyone else was present before speaking.
"This time, I successfully passed the third and fourth levels in Wuwanglou. The two rewards from Wuwanglou did allow me to find something useful."
As soon as Nangong Jing said this, everyone present was excited.
The generals of the Dragon Shadow Empire looked at Nangong Jing with eyes full of pride, and from time to time they glanced at Shui Ling's generals.
That look seemed to be saying, see, this is the genius of my empire.
"After I passed the third level, I obtained a technique that allows me to use my mental power to stimulate the monster, doubling its cultivation. As for the time limit, it depends on the amount of mental power I have."
"Double the power of the monster? Isn't this the same as what happened with Fate?"
As soon as Nangong Jing finished speaking, Mao Yunyuan couldn't wait to speak.
"I can't say it's exactly the same, just similar. At least my technique can't be used on humans. However, it has no side effects, so I won't become terribly weak like those soldiers after a while."
The generals were somewhat disappointed when they heard Nangong Jing say that this technique could not be used on humans.
If Nangong Jing's method could also be used on humans, then they wouldn't have to worry about Fate's army.
"Although it can't be used on humans, it can be used on any magical beast."
Nangong Jing said this with some meaning.
Most people present didn't understand what Nangong Jing said, but Mao Yunkai thought of something, was shocked, and asked back.
"Seventh Young Master means that you can control even the magical beasts summoned by others???"
Now everyone was no longer shocked, but gasped.
If Nangong Jing could even control the monsters summoned by others, what a terrifying ability that would be.
Nangong Jing naturally wouldn't be so foolish as to say yes, but said.
"As long as its strength doesn't exceed mine, and even though I can control it, the monster will still break free from my control once my mental power is exhausted."
Nangong Jing's words could be said to be half true and half false. It was false that the monster could not be controlled if the strength was greater than his, but it was true that the monster would break free from his control if his mental power was exhausted.
Nangong Jing just doesn't want to be feared by others. After all, if he can control all the monsters in the Monster Forest, there are so many monsters. If he can control them all, he can become the king.
