Chapter 318
Chapter 318
At the foot of the West Mountain.
A military camp has already taken shape, with flags like a forest and soldiers and soldiers coming and going like a stream.
In the big tent of the military camp.
"To the east of here is the Linhe Prefecture City on the Tongtian River..." Qing Li sat at the head of the big tent and pointed to the map on the long table.
"In three days at most, we will be able to reach the city." Qing Li said sternly:
"This battle is crucial. If we can take down this Linhe Prefecture City, the entire Southwest Province will be in the bag of my Yuhua Sect."
Qing Li's voice echoed in the big tent, without any other noise.
Many of her generals were obviously a little absent-minded. From time to time, someone looked up and glanced at Qing Li's face without leaving a trace.
This was the first time that the King of Feathers took off his mask in front of them.
Rumor has it that the King of Feathers claimed that he was too beautiful and his complexion was enough to make the army uneasy.
The King of Feathers did not want to show his beauty, so he put on a mask and earned the current name of "King of Feathers" with his courage and martial arts.
Seeing the true appearance of King Yu today, the generals thought that the rumor was not groundless... so they were a little distracted.
King Yu's appearance was one thing, and King Yu's identity was another.
The name of the Spear Saint was very famous in Southwest Province, and Demon Spear Qing Li, the disciple of the Spear Saint, was not an ordinary warrior...
Seeing the generals distracted, Qing Li frowned slightly and tapped the table twice with his fingers, making a crisp sound.
"Do you remember what I just said?" Qing Li said calmly:
"This battle is crucial. Perhaps this battle can completely destroy the arrogance of the remnant of the imperial court army, end the chaos in the entire Southwest Province in one battle."
"So this will be a tough battle."
"If this city is broken, all the imperial court officials in the city will die." Qing Li said firmly:
"The officials and wealthy families in the city will be looted by the soldiers in the army for three days to comfort the soldiers."
"Hmm?"
"What does King Yu mean by this? King Yu took off his mask this time. Why did he change his nature?"
The generals came to their senses and looked up in surprise, with surprise in their eyes.
"Allowing the soldiers to loot the officials and wealthy families in the city for three days? After breaking the city, you can rob food and money at will, and it is not considered a violation of military orders?"
Since ancient times, sieges and wars have always represented blood and chaos.
After the victors conquered the city, it was common for them to massacre the city to vent their anger, or to indulge their soldiers in drinking and looting.
Even if they did not condone it openly, the generals might not be able to control their soldiers.
After all, siege warfare is not a video game, not a F2A box where everyone can work together.
Thousands of soldiers are thousands of brains, tens of thousands of soldiers are tens of thousands of brains, even if the military discipline is strict, there is no guarantee that no one will have bad ideas and do things like burning, killing and looting.
As for those who can restrain their soldiers and not harm the people after the siege is successful, it is a very rare minority.
The Yu Wang Army used to be this very rare minority.
There are black sheep, but the Yu Wang is an iron-faced and selfless person. Once the matter is exposed, the sergeants or officers who make trouble will not escape death.
After this kind of thing happened several times in the past, the officers in the army were not without complaints. They privately said that the King of Yu was an iron lady with moral cleanliness, and could not tolerate the slightest dirt in her eyes.
Because of this, the generals were surprised.
It was normal for the rebels to allow soldiers to rob the rich.
If this news was released, it would definitely boost morale.
But their leader was the King of Yu, which was not normal.
This was not in line with the King of Yu's previous style of doing things, but at this moment, they looked up at the King of Yu's cold and indifferent face, and knew that what she said was absolutely true.
"This battle is crucial." Qing Li did not explain much:
"If there is no objection, pass this military order down."
The King of Yu had a very high reputation in the army, and he had always been a man of his word, so naturally no one would refute it.
Only Yuli seemed to be thinking about something, and looked a little worried:
"Once the military order is issued, it is like water spilled out."
"Today, the military discipline has been relaxed. It will not be so easy to set up rules again in the future."
"Yu Wang is different today. What is she thinking?"
As the army was about to march, the generals walked out of the tent one after another. Soon, only Yu Wang and Yuli were left in the tent.
"Yuli, don't leave in a hurry." Qingli said:
"Some time ago, didn't you meet two warriors who snatched Luo Cheng, the merchant from Taotie City, from you?"
"Tell me honestly... did those two people get poisoned by the blood you used to track them?"
..................
After a while.
When Yuli listened to Qingli's instructions and left the military camp.
In Yu Wang's tent, a figure quietly appeared. It was the Taoist of Yunxiao Sect, Yushan.
"You did a very good job. It was beyond my expectation." Yushan nodded and smiled.
He never mentioned the matter of Xishan Village, and he felt somewhat satisfied.
This Yu Wang had indeed fallen into the long-weaving net of Yunxiao Sect, and things were even smoother than he had imagined.
Originally, Yu Shan was still thinking about how he would have to knock on the Yu Wang after the death of the villagers in Xishan Village in order to make him proceed according to the original plan...
"Things have been done well, but... there is one more thing. Recently in the Linhe Prefecture area, the residents of several mountain villages and towns were killed, and no one was left. It is suspected that some unidentified monsters are causing trouble." Yu Shan briefly mentioned the previous events.
"The attack on Linhe City is about to begin. At this time, you ask me to thoroughly investigate another matter?" Qing Li asked, his tone calm, without any emotion.
"The attack on Linhe City is naturally a top priority as it relates to the great cause of the Immortal Kingdom on earth." Yushan said:
"But the city won't be able to stop you. It's only a matter of time before the city is destroyed."
Qing Li thought for a while, nodded in agreement, and did not refuse.
This reaction was not what Yushan expected. Today's Yu Wang has long been a caged bird carefully cultivated by the Immortal Sect. She has never had sand in her eyes. How she will react and whether she will obey the Immortal Sect's orders has already been in his mind. There are several.
.............................
Dozens of miles away, among the mountains, there is a Blackwater Village.
There are more than a thousand families in Heishui Village, living in this deep mountain, naturally to avoid the harsh government and heavy taxes.
There are actually not too many villages like this in Southwest Prefecture.
After all, there are hundreds of thousands of mountain monsters running rampant, and a small mountain village without the protection of a fortified city may be destroyed in ten or several decades.
Today, this small mountain village far away from the big city finally encountered a disaster that was long overdue.
now.
The entire Blackwater Village was quiet, and the doors and windows of every house were closed. However, many doors had big holes opened and were crooked, obviously being forced open by a strong external force.
There are often traces of blood left on the ground five or six steps away, spread throughout the village.
"Hey! You monster!"
In the courtyard of the village chief's house, a loud scolding sound suddenly came out.
"Obviously he is a monster, but he has been wandering around in a mortal village for so many years, and he still manages to capture the village chief?"
"I asked how a small mountain village like this with thousands of people can survive in a mountain with hundreds of thousands of people. It turns out that this mountain village is actually the territory of a monster like you!"
"That's it for today!"

A big man with a heavy back and a heavy waist stepped on the waist of a strong middle-aged man, making him unable to move.
The middle-aged man was struggling. Black wings about two meters long spread out from his back. The wings were like knives and struck at the burly man in front of him.
The wings flapped very quickly, a sharp sound was heard in the air, and an afterimage was drawn in the air.
However, the burly man casually grabbed the wings in his hand.
The next moment, the middle-aged man who was stepped on felt a huge suction force.
The huge wings with a wingspan of two meters quickly shrank and dried up at a speed visible to the naked eye. The middle-aged man who was stepped on suddenly lost his strength and fell softly to the ground.
"You are obviously weak and far inferior to me, but you still have the fighting spirit. Dare you fight with me? That's a commendable feat of courage."
Wu Qiankun raised his feet, folded his arms and looked down at the head of Heishui Village at his feet:
"There must be a reason for extraordinary courage... Do you have any last words to confess?"
It's just that the village chief has no strength left. He just lies on the ground and gasps. He doesn't even have the strength to move his body.
"Of course I'm no match for you." The village chief with the wings behind him gasped and said:
"But I still have a three-year-old son at home..."
"Are you a half-breed bird demon?" Wu Qiankun glanced sideways at a corner of the courtyard. There was a child huddled in the corner, afraid to speak.
"No, he is the child I picked up. He is a pure human race." Black Wing Village Chief gasped:
"I don't know much about mortal martial arts, but you should be practicing martial arts similar to the Dharma Absorption Technique? A three-year-old human child with an ordinary physique and nothing special is just a drop in the bucket to you."
"I know that I will definitely die, so I would like to tell you a secret. I hope that you will be magnanimous for the sake of this baby being a pure human race..."
"What secret?" Wu Qiankun asked directly without comment.
The Black Wing Village Chief also knew that he had no room for bargaining, so he managed to take a breath and said:
"Although I am a bird demon, in the past few decades, I was actually a 'spiritual beast' raised by the Yunxiao Sect. But I later escaped, transformed into a human, and lived in seclusion in this deep mountain..."
"Who is willing to hear about your origin? If you have a secret, just tell me." Wu Qiankun was not very patient and walked towards the child in the corner of the courtyard.
"King Yu! King Yu is probably Demon Spear Qingli!" the Black Wing Village Chief shouted.
Wu Qiankun paused slightly, then looked back at the village chief with a rather mocking look:
"You live in the mountains, the news is a bit out of date... This matter has just spread in Southwest State in recent days, and it is no longer a secret."
"There is another secret that you must not know." Black Wing Village Chief panted and said:
"Demon Spear Qingli is a mixed descendant of the Jingwei clan."
"And the descendants of the Jingwei clan in Shiwanda Mountain are actually the same as me. They were captured by the Yunxiao Sect long ago and became spiritual beasts raised by the Immortal Sect."
"This is quite interesting, please elaborate." Wu Qiankun paused for a moment.
"Jingwei is a divine bird, an extraordinary race of demons. Therefore, there are only mixed-blood and half-demon descendants that still exist in this world, and there are no pure-blood demons anymore."
"After this mixed-blood descendant fell into the hands of the Yunxiao Sect, what those cultivators were thinking about was naturally to try to revive the mixed-blood half-demon bloodline, master the innate magical powers of the Jingwei clan, and reproduce the style of the divine bird Jingwei. ”
"It's just that the innate magical power of the Jingwei clan seems to be related to death. It can't be mastered until the critical moment of life and death."
"The immortal cultivators of Yunxiao Sect naturally don't value the lives of half-demon too much, so the descendants of the Jingwei clan have almost died out over the years."
"After so many years, the Yunxiao Sect has actually mastered the method of stimulating the innate magical powers of Jingwei half-demon descendants, and there are more and more successful examples."
"Until one day, the Jingwei senior who was reborn after death led me and other demons and half-demon to escape from the Yunxiao Sect..."
"Who the hell are you? No one wants to hear your past about old millet and rotten sesame seeds." Wu Qiankun interrupted with a frown.
However, the Black Wing Village Chief did not refute at this time, because he no longer had the strength to speak, his flesh and blood were dry, and he was taking in more air than out. He was obviously on the verge of death.
But at the end of his life, his eyes were fixed on Wu Qiankun with a look of pleading.
"Don't worry." Wu Qiankun said calmly:
"Whether you are a demon, a half-demon, or a pure human being, I will not treat you differently, I will treat them all equally."
He grabbed the child huddled in the corner with one hand, but there was no expression on his face:
"A child raised by a half-demon, do you want me to let him go and save him for revenge in the future?"
"Child." He looked into the eyes of the three-year-old child with a calm look:
"Regardless of whether you're a monster or a human, I treat them all equally. If you're to blame, it's because you're too weak and don't have the strength to resist."
"The law of the jungle is the law of nature."
He was about to take action, but suddenly a warning sign occurred in his heart, and then he heard a sharp sound of wind next to his ears.
A spear came through the air and whizzed past his shoulder.
Although it did not touch his body, the sharp wind that passed by caused the skin on his face to be scratched and blood stains appeared.
Wu Qiankun raised his head and looked again, only to see a familiar figure in front of him, it was Qing Li.
"Demon Spear, Qing Li?"
"A top martial artist in Kyushu like you can attack a three-year-old child?" Qing Li narrowed his eyes.
"Those who achieve great things must not only have extraordinary talents, but also have extraordinary aspirations." Wu Qiankun said calmly:
"Qualification, understanding, character, mentorship, etc. are all just the basic skills of a strong person."
"If you want to make further progress, these alone are far from enough. Naturally, you must have a transcendent ambition and be able to do what others cannot."
Wu Qiankun grinned, raised his fists, and rushed towards Qing Li:
"There are only a handful of people in this world who are qualified to be my enemies. Now that my state of mind has broken through and my skills have improved, I can test how much stronger I have become with you!"
............
after a while.
Wu Qiankun, who was covered in blood, had dense air holes appearing on his back, flying through the sky at extremely fast speeds amid the continuous jets of air.
"I heard that Qing Li is a descendant of the divine bird Jingwei?" The pale Wu Qiankun glanced behind him from the corner of his eyes:
"It seems that my transformation is already faster than this Jingwei half-demon. She will not be able to catch up with me after all."
....
PS, recommend this book. Honkai Impact, I am bound to a love simulator
[Introduction to hard work, please see the text for details]
Jiang Yuan got a love simulator, and the more he played, the more he felt something was wrong.
"If you like me, stay with me."
The lightning behind the Thunder Queen is dazzling.
"Okay, it's just the two of us now. Actually, you don't like Mei Yi, you like me, right?"
In his arms, Herrscher Xin Yan nestled against him, refusing to leave.
"You approached me with the excuse of helping Mei Yi. If it were me at that time, I would be stupidly grateful to you and then lose you, right?"
"Why was I so passionate when I lost my relationship and so cold after I had one?"
Only the Lawyer of Reason knows that the two of you are the most familiar strangers.
"It doesn't matter how long you stay with me, what's important is that I will stay with you for the rest of your life."
Facing these girls who were ten thousand times more terrifying than the Herrscher of the End, Jiang Yuan sighed.
"What a terrifying Shura field. Fortunately it's just a simulation, otherwise I would be in trouble, right, Tong."
Jiang Yuan sighed, but for some reason he didn't hear a response.
"Reunion?"
