The war between the "Nine Kings" and the Di Kingdom was exceptionally fierce. Seven months had passed, and they had not yet captured a single city of the Di Kingdom, which was truly astonishing.
The emperor, empress dowager, empress, and the various factions in the capital were secretly pleased.
Especially the Crown Prince Shang Dongyang, who was deposed by the little bandit, was so happy that he would torture one or two palace maids to death every night. He would also often mutter to himself in a mad manner: "The Ninth Prince was so powerful all his life, but I never thought that he would be defeated by me in the end. This can be regarded as retribution in this life!"
"Once the Ninth Prince loses power, I will definitely capture that bandit and torture her day and night, making her wish she were dead!"
Shang Beiyu was still in Tongyou at this time.
During this period, Black Purgatory captured a total of five members of the Eastern Dragon Gate clan, but every time he tried to search their souls, they would self-destruct their sea of consciousness, showing that the Eastern Dragon Gate was also wary of this tactic.
As for the assassins from the East Dragon Gate, after a large number of them were captured at the beginning, the rest seemed to have vanished into thin air and never came out again.
From the memories of some of the assassins, Shang Beiyu learned a vague piece of information: the Donglongmen people seemed to live on a small island in the sea, but no one knew the exact location.
Shang Beiyu flew on his sword and searched the coastal area near Tongyou for more than five months, vaguely noticing some clues in one of the sea areas.
There seemed to be a hidden formation there. He could sense it in mid-air, but when he landed on the sea, he couldn't feel anything unusual around him.
Although he was only a wisp of his soul that came to this world, with his soul power cultivation, there weren't many formations in this world that could hide from him.
Shang Beiyu felt that this was very likely a trap set by the Donglongmen clan.
The stalemate in the war between the Di Kingdom and the Ninth Prince was exactly what Shang Beiyu had expected.
He is currently investigating the affairs of the Donglongmen clan and cannot return to the capital to protect the little female bandit. In order to hold the little female bandit back, he prevented Meng Qi from launching a final all-out attack on Shang Xiye and delivering the final blow.
The day he conquered the ancestral land of the Donglongmen clan was also the day Shang Xi died in battle!
At that time, he will personally go to the Northwest to bring his beloved daughter back.
Northwest border.
The Di army once again besieged the city.
Wei Shu stood on the city wall, holding a long spear, his posture upright and imposing. No one could tell that he was a seriously injured man.
Beneath the city walls, Di general Seba sat atop his tall horse, brandishing his scimitar and shouting arrogantly: "Rumor has it that your Ninth Prince is invincible and incredibly brave in battle. Yet, after fighting for half a year, he's like a coward, always hiding in his tent, never daring to show his face! Could it be that he's so terrified by the might of our Di soldiers that he wets his pants and is afraid of being seen and humiliated?"
The soldiers of the Di Kingdom burst into laughter.
"You're really good at patting yourselves on the back. You can't even beat us shrimp soldiers and crab generals, yet you want to see my prince? You're so shameless!" Wei Shu held his spear and laughed loudly.
Seba's face, now covered in a thick beard, darkened to a depths of black. He suddenly roared, his voice clearly imbued with spiritual energy: "Arrogant brat, if you've got the guts, come down and fight me fair and square! Don't be like your Ninth Prince, just hiding in the city and spouting empty words."
"You promised to destroy my Di Kingdom within a year, you bunch of greenhorns, why don't you come and do it!"
These were extremely offensive remarks.
Wei Shu saw that the soldiers on the city wall had changed color, and knew that if he continued to curse, it would definitely shake the morale of the army and affect their spirits.
