Two hundred and twentieth chapters escape
The news that Lu Chuan had realized the way of swordsmanship only spread in a small area, which was not a common thing.
However, irrational things are always happening in this world. Some people may speculate whether Lu Chuan has other secrets, but no one will delve into it inappropriately.
"No matter what, enlightenment is a good thing. On the road of sword cultivation, you have truly entered the world. I realized the way of swordsmanship when I was in Ruyi Realm. From then on, my sword practice has been a smooth road, leading to the extraordinary without any obstacles.
Enlightenment will obviously improve combat, you can find someone to compare with and experience it. Before enlightenment, Jiang Tao and I often cheated on the outcome, but after enlightenment, I never lost to him again."
After Yu Huan learned the news about Lu Chuan's safety, he also chatted with Lu Chuan for a while. He wished he could go back to Utopia and go to the Military Department to find someone to brag about.
A few days ago, he heard that Lu Chuan was trying out his skills in the Ministry of Military Affairs. Jin Nanzhou almost failed to win him. His mouth watered when he thought of those greedy people, and he could only pretend to be disdainful and refute that Lu Chuan was not so talented.
Yu Huan felt a little itchy and unbearable.
Look at my amazing and talented apprentice, I taught him!
"Okay Uncle Yu, your mission there is going well. Jingguo and Wuguo are about to negotiate peace. Will you be back soon?"
"Probably, the two big countries are very confused. They don't want to negotiate but they can't reach an agreement. I don't know how long the peace talks will take. If you have formed a team over there, you can go first. I will fly back long after I finish.
I’ll meet you guys, if it’s too late we can just meet up in Jingguo.”
Although Yu Huan's business trip was more urgent and the conditions were more difficult, the work intensity was not high. He squatted here all day watching the fight between the two sides, always ready to take advantage.
Therefore, he basically surfs intensively with his mobile phone every day, and he is basically clear about what is happening in Utopia.
Today is an unlucky situation. It rained heavily here in Longchuan City. Although they had techniques to avoid the rain, they did not dare to go too far in order to avoid anyone noticing the abnormality here.
, it was still quite embarrassing.
"Uncle Yu, I actually have the feeling of a smooth path in cultivation that you mentioned. I feel that I am practicing too fast, but today Minister Jiang Lingshan checked it for me and said there is no problem.
I am now full of Yuanshi, and I am absorbing it very quickly, and I have jumped across the threshold of enlightenment. It always gives me a feeling that as long as I wait for time to digest it, I will naturally feel extraordinary."
Lu Chuan could only talk to Yu Huan about this. Others would just think that Lu Chuan was pretending, but that was really how he felt.
He sometimes speculates whether Lu Changsheng's situation back then was similar to his own. With the help of Brother Copper Coin, his cultivation speed was so fast that he entered the extraordinary world very early and could even fight gods.
"Don't worry, in fact, everyone is similar. When the talent is very good, the only things that restrict everyone's practice are energy, time, and the understanding of the Tao.
Lao Zhao was also leveling up quickly back then, and I didn't see any hidden dangers left by him. If you are really worried, just go to Lingshan for regular check-ups."
Yu Huan didn't have any ideas, and the message he sent to Lu Chuan was obviously bragging.
Even among the chosen people in Utopia, none of their respective spiritual paths were as smooth as Lu Chuan's.
Most of the first batch of chosen people were relatively poor when they first came here, and they fought hard for a few cultivation resources. Otherwise, they wouldn't have met each other at the sect conference in the north to compete for benefits.
However, most of them went relatively smoothly in the process of enlightenment. They understood the principles of the Tao early, and some even understood many different principles of the Tao. In the eyes of other people at that time, they were all monsters among monsters.
, and this is how he became recognized as the chosen one.
The cultivation environment of the second batch of chosen people is much better, but they lack the spirit to find a way out of the clutter. I don't know if this is the influence. Most of their understanding of Tao principles has progressed.
slower.
And recently, the second batch of chosen people who have emerged one after another to achieve extraordinary breakthroughs seems to prove that they are not all lacking in understanding, and all they need is time.
After Yu Huan sent the message, there was sudden movement from the direction of Longchuan City not far away. Yu Huan raised his head suddenly and could only see a crowd of people near the north gate of Longchuan City in the night.
Wu Guo's night attack? Have Jing Guo's reinforcements arrived? Or is Jing's army in the city trying to break out?
"I have something going on here, let's talk later." Yu Huan sent a message to Lu Chuan and immediately stood up from the hillside. Several other companions around him also noticed the movement in the distance and were looking at him at the moment.
"The situation has changed, so everyone should be prepared."
...
Ever since Xia Wujiang decided to evacuate, he has been preparing for this goal in the past few days.
He kept sending people to the military camp to negotiate peace, contacted Jing Congyun to send monks and reinforcements with high mobility to respond, and tried his best to treat the seriously injured sergeants who were unable to move.
Jing Congyun even urgently used vehicles and cloud shuttles purchased from Utopia for this evacuation, put them in a storage ring and secretly sent them to Longchuan City, and then waited for the heavy rain predicted by Si Tianjian.
The time he chose was naturally late at night when most of the armed forces had rested. The Sixth Army under his command had already prepared to file out from the north gate. Such movement would naturally alarm the nearby armed forces.
However, the other rebels and sect monks who came to support were not as rigorous as the regular army and could not maintain the habit of preparing for war at night. Waiting for them
Meiling City in the north of Longchuan City also made obvious noises. Experts flew past, and a large number of troops were leaving the city and heading south to meet Xia Wujiang.
Late at night during the heavy rain, Jing's army made a sudden move, and Wu's army also reacted very quickly. They woke up their waiting companions and made preparations for the attack. However, Jing's army had no intention of attacking at night, so Wu Cheng quickly judged that Jing's people wanted to attack.
Going to withdraw.
Before he could respond, Longchuan City in front of them erupted with violent roars. The magical flames that could not be extinguished by the heavy rain enveloped the entire city on the east, west and south sides. Inside the open city gate was the figure of Wu Guo.
People were fleeing in all directions, calling for help.
This is still Jing Congyun's preparation for retreat. I burned Longchuan City, and there are people from the Wu Kingdom inside. Can you, the military army, save it?
After all, Wu Cheng was the commander-in-chief of an army. He immediately made a decision to save first and then pursue. As soon as the military order was issued, Wu Yue and Emperor Tianwu walked into the military tent.
"Your Majesty, it's raining heavily tonight and your dragon body is not in good shape. It's better not to..."
"Xia Wujiang escaped?" Wu Yue interrupted Wu Cheng's respectful nonsense. His face looked slightly better, but there was still no color.
"This beast is ferocious and vicious. Before leaving, he set up the Nine Dragons Fire Formation with the intention of burning down Longchuan City. I have already ordered people to rescue him.
In addition, the Jingguo people's retreat was bizarre. I heard that they had a treasure in their hands that could confuse people's minds. The Northern Army had learned from their mistakes, so I didn't dare to pursue them rashly in the rain."
Wu Cheng was a commander with a steady marching style. In his opinion, Xia Wujiang arranged for the retreat despite the rain, which was the first level. Lighting the Longchuan City sign to prevent the military pursuit was the second level, and actually setting up an ambush was waiting for him.
The Imperial Guards pursue and then counterattack is the third level.
Jingguo had already played this routine twice, including a great victory, pursuit, ambushes, demoralization, and then the entire army was defeated. It was impossible for Wu Cheng, who was standing on the fourth floor, to fall into the trap.
Wu Yue subconsciously turned his head to look at his great grandfather. Emperor Tianwu said calmly, "Longchuan City is so close, so just send a battalion to rescue them. Let's follow up and bite them, and don't let them get away easily."
The Wu army quickly started to move. While sending people to rescue Longchuan City, the whole army left the camp and chased north. The Wu army chose to let the high-level monks go first, and then delayed the opponent's progress after catching up. Soon
He followed the high-level monks who were left behind by Jing Jun to look after the rear.
"Xia Wujiang, you are in vain to be the commander of an army. You actually set fire to the city and massacred the innocent people of Wu Kingdom. Do you still have humanity?" Wu Cheng shouted in the heavy rain, his voice was like a bell, and he also shouted to Jing Guo.
The sergeant attacked the heart.
"Wars are fierce and war is dangerous, and everyone is his own master. Wu Cheng, you talk too much nonsense. There is more than just the Jiulong Lihuo Formation in Longchuan City. There are fewer of you going there, so be careful."
As soon as Xia Wujiang's voice fell, Longchuan City behind Wu Jun erupted with a violent sound. The east wall collapsed and shattered, and the whole city and the vicinity of the city felt the earth shake.
Even though Wu Cheng was a steady commander, he could not help but feel angry at being teased at this time. He was about to order an attack, but to his surprise, Xia Wujiang redirected his army and counterattacked towards the Wu army.
"I didn't expect that you would dare to pursue me. Master Zhao, let's do it." Xia Wujiang's voice also echoed on the battlefield, with a heart-stopping feeling.
"Nine Heavens Mysterious Temple, turned into divine thunder, the brilliant power of heaven, led it with the sword!" A clear voice came from the distance, Zhao Wuya rushed to the battlefield, and he hit the "Divine Sword and Thunder Control Technique" directly.
Thunder falls in the midst of torrential rain.
Of course, his "Excalibur Thunder Control Technique" is nonsense. It is just a lightning technique developed by himself, and he shamelessly gave it this name.
When the second batch of chosen people traveled through time, Lu Mo, who had the ability to search, reproduced "Zhu Xian" based on his impressions. Zhao Wuya was fascinated by this book.
Even after he later left Utopia and went to Jingguo, the sect he founded was named Qingyun Sect, and the sword he carried with him was also named Zhuxian Sword.
Of course, his Immortal Killing Sword was lost the last time he was shot to death by Emperor Tianwu, and now he only has a pirated sword in his hand.
"Hey, you're not dead. The chosen one is really interesting." Emperor Tianwu casually broke the thunder, and a cold voice appeared in the night sky. "Then I'll kill you again."
Zhao Wuya's scalp went numb when he heard Emperor Tianwu's voice, and he quickly used his escape technique to stay away.
He only agreed to come to support Xia Wujiang after hearing that Emperor Tianwu could no longer take action at will. Why was he still targeting him?
Now that he doesn't have the resurrection armor, he doesn't dare to risk his life on whether Emperor Tianwu will actually kill him by force.
"You may take action, but I don't know if His Majesty the Emperor Wu can still afford the price of your action? We are also looking forward to killing an emperor of the Wu Kingdom on the battlefield." Xia Wujiang held a long sword in one hand and a handsome flag in the other.
, the more people come out.
Wu Jun was somewhat silent. Behind the silence was speculation about Xia Wujiang's words. Wu Cheng's face turned ugly. This secret was exposed by Xia Wujiang in person.
The best way to deal with it is of course for Emperor Tianwu to come forward and kill him, but he also knows that Wu Yue will really find it difficult to bear the price next time.
The military army did not move, and Xia Wujiang naturally would not take the initiative to attack. There was a flying knight in the sky behind him, and he himself was waiting for ordinary sergeants and injured monks to retreat further.
"It seems that your peace talks during this period are not sincere at all, and you just want to delay time." Wu Yue looked at Xia Wujiang indifferently. After several days of negotiations, his determination was not as strong as a few days ago, and his desire for life was not as strong as it was a few days ago.
It also gained the upper hand in his heart again.
He has done a good job, and everyone is praising him. His contribution to making this war what it is now is a great contribution, and no one will criticize him harshly.
I just didn't expect that even negotiating peace would be a trap for the other party.
"That's not the case. Our Lord does intend to negotiate peace with your country. In order to show sincerity, we are willing to give in first and withdraw from the northern border of your country and return your country's territory." Xia Wujiang said sincerely, describing this retreat as
Sincerity also means giving the other person a step down.
There was even a smile on his face. Wu Guo did not immediately take action, indicating that the biggest crisis in today's evacuation has basically been resolved.
Every minute, the ordinary sergeants and injured monks who evacuated in off-road vehicles and Yunsuo would escape to a safer place. The monks who stayed with him and the reinforcements that gradually arrived were very mobile. Wu Guo did not block the space in advance.
Under such circumstances, it is very convenient to fight or flee.
When they were besieged in the city, the other party had the initiative and needed to take action. Now that they have come out of Longchuan City, the sea and the sky are naturally brighter.
"My lord's birthday is approaching, and the soldiers under my command and I are eager to return home. Since His Majesty the Emperor has no intention of fighting again, why don't we call it a truce and conclude a peace treaty? What does His Majesty the Emperor think of it?"
Wu Jun did not respond, so Xia Wujiang handed him up the steps again. Seeing that Emperor Tianwu would no longer take action at will, Zhao Wuya Shi Shiran returned to Xia Wujiang.
Emperor Tianwu narrowed his eyes, raised his hand and threw the gun shadow in his hand towards Zhao Wuya. The gun flew to the front of Jingjun's formation in an instant, frightening Zhao Wuya's flash talisman, while Xia Wujiang was in advance.
He swung his sword towards the gun and chopped it into pieces with one strike.
This shot was not so easy to catch. After Xia Wujiang used his sword to strike hard, he vomited out a mouthful of blood. However, he saw Wu Yue's figure in the military formation in the distance shaking slightly, and he started laughing after vomiting blood.
Come on, exchange blood and see who dies first.
"As you said, get out of the North." Emperor Tianwu's face was still stern and his tone was still cold.
He sensed the auras of those chosen ones approaching. If an opportunity really appeared today, perhaps the other party would risk Wu Yue's death at all costs.
No matter how unwilling he was, he had to accept reality.
