Chapter 148 New Year, Great War Begins
Time flies, and a new year has arrived in the blink of an eye.
The entire North was immersed in the joyous atmosphere of the New Year.
However, it was during the New Year period, when every household was happily preparing to have a reunion dinner together, that things changed.
The armies of the Northern Barbarians and the Southern Barbarians suddenly launched an attack on the cities on the northern border.
At the same time, all the major sects of Tianwaitian were integrated and headed towards Beili.
The first to suffer was the western side of Beili.
Inside Kenshin's Tomb.
When Li Jianyi, Li Hanyi, and the others saw the sudden news from Baixiaotang, Li Jianyi didn't find it strange at all, but Li Hanyi and the others frowned slightly.
After all, Li Jianyi knew that the best time for the Demonic Sect to launch its eastern expedition was the day they had their reunion dinner in Beili.
We must strike when they are unprepared! Only then can we achieve a great victory in our eastern expedition!
"I think the Eastern Expedition of the people from the Outer Heavens is related to the sudden attack on the Northern Li by the Southern Jue and the Northern Barbarians!"
Moreover, to the west are Snow Moon City and Qian Dong City! Li Hanyi was somewhat worried about Qian Dong City.
As for Snow Moon City, with Master Li Changsheng around, who would dare to act recklessly?
However, the situation in Qiandong City is different. Although there are also experts there, the Demonic Sect's eastern expedition was clearly well-prepared. Otherwise, they wouldn't have suddenly launched an attack on the day of the New Year, when people are having a reunion dinner.
"It is indeed related, so Hanyi, what are you planning to do?" Li Jianyi looked at Li Hanyi, whose beautiful eyes were slightly furrowed.
"My senior brother and Sister Yueyao went to the Outer Heavens and haven't returned yet. I want to go to Qiandong City to check on them for my senior brother," Li Hanyi said.
"Can!"
Li Jian nodded.
Then he looked at Li Suwang and Li Xinyue and said, "Mother, Grandfather, Hanyi and I are going to Qiandong City to take a look, so I'm entrusting the Sword Heart Tomb to you."
"Alright, originally, when Bai Xiaotang sent this message to Jianxin Tomb, the major sects of the Jianghu in Beili could not remain unaffected."
As natives of Beili, we, as martial arts sects, should also send people to stop the Demonic Sect's eastward expedition.
"So, this time, Grandpa won't compete with you younger generation for the opportunity. Just remember, you must protect Hanyi well," Li Suwang earnestly instructed.
"Don't worry, Grandpa, I won't let anything happen to my unmarried wife if something happens to me," Li Jianyi promised with a smile.
"Alright, then your grandfather and your future mother will be waiting for your triumphant return at the Sword Heart Tomb!" King Li Su was well aware of Li Jianyi's current strength, so he was naturally at ease with him.
"Um!"
Li Jianyi nodded happily, then took Li Hanyi's hand and headed to Qiandong City.
……
"How is it? Has the imperial court not sent troops to reinforce us yet?" In Qiandong City, the Marquis of Zhenxi looked solemnly at the Zhenxi Army, which was resisting the people of the Demonic Sect, and then looked at the official from Tianqi City.
"Lord Zhenxi, it's not that the imperial court isn't sending troops to reinforce Qiandong City, but rather that the Northern Barbarians and Southern Jue have suddenly launched an attack on the border cities of the north, leaving Generals like Lei Mengsha completely unable to spare the troops," the official who came to Qiandong City said helplessly.
"Can't get away? Then there's really nothing we can do..." Baili Luochen also frowned. During the New Year, Beili was suddenly attacked from both sides, so much so that Qiandong City was the first to be affected by the Demonic Sect's eastern expedition.
Just ...
The imperial court not only didn't send anyone to aid my Qiandong City, but also specially dispatched an official to supervise the battle. What does this mean? Is it to monitor whether my Qiandong City is deliberately obstructing the people from Tianwaitian?
snort!
What a foolish emperor!
Oh no, the foolish King Gyeong-ok who is acting as regent!
Baili Luo Chen inwardly complained about the current acting emperor, Prince Jingyu, and then personally commanded the Zhenxi Army to block the people from Tianwaitian.
The difference between the army and the Heavenly Realm is also obvious. The Heavenly Realm's army is composed of experts from various sects in the Heavenly Realm, each of whom is at least capable of fighting ten opponents at once.
Therefore, although Tianwaitian has fewer people, its strength is indeed far superior to that of the Zhenxi Army of Qiandong City.
The Zhenxi Army also had a large number of men; otherwise, Qiandong City would probably have fallen in an instant.
"Arrange them in a long, straight line!"
Since individual combat skills were insufficient, Baili Luochen prepared to compensate by using large formations and increasing the number of people.
With Baili Luochen in command, the Zhenxi Army clearly found it much easier to fight against the people from Tianwaitian.
"Sect Master, the Marquis of Zhenxi's military command ability is quite good; he actually managed to stop our Tianwaitian's powerful attack!" Yueqing stood beside Ye Dingzhi, her brows slightly furrowed.
"This is Brother Baili's grandfather, so he must be quite famous! Moreover, my goal in attacking Beili is not to conquer Beili, but to win back my wife!" Ye Dingzhi looked solemnly at Yue Qing, hoping she could understand his objective.
"But Sect Master, you must know that Yi Wenjun is the Queen Consort of King Jingyu! If you want to take Yi Wenjun away from him, you must take down Beili!"
"Otherwise, given his current status as acting as regent, how could you possibly bring Yi Wenjun back?" Yueqing pointed out incisively.
Upon hearing this, Ye Dingzhi fell silent for a moment.
However, he couldn't let go of Yi Wenjun, so he stepped forward and looked at Baili Luochen: "Marquis of Zhenxi, Brother Baili and I are old acquaintances, so I don't want to be your enemy!"
"Then let's withdraw from Qiandong City and return to Tianwaitian!" Baili Luochen said, standing in front of the Zhenxi Army.
"Impossible! I absolutely have to go to Tianqi City!" Ye Dingzhi frowned.
During this trip, he unexpectedly absorbed the power of Yuefeng City and Baili Dongjun in Tianwaitian, and leaped to the Ghost Immortal realm (currently above the Half-Step Divine Travel realm, below the Divine Travel realm). How could he easily retreat back to Tianwaitian?
Moreover, even if we don't take down Beili, we should at least bring back Yi Wenjun, right?
"If the people from Tianwaitian want to enter Tianqi City, they'll have to get past me first!" As the western city garrison commander, Baili Luochen naturally wouldn't let the people from Tianwaitian break into Qiandong City and head towards Tianqi City.
After all, he also knew that the person in charge of Tianwaitian was from the Beique Kingdom, which was destroyed by Beili back then!
In other words, if he lets the people from Tianwaitian enter Qiandong City and kill their way to Tianqi City, even if it's just Qiandong City's talent, nothing will happen. But what about the cities after Qiandong City?
You must know that Bei Li massacred Bei Que back then, and that was a national war. Bei Que couldn't be defended and was massacred.
At this moment, Baili Luochen was confident that he could stop the people from Tianwaitian. How could he easily let the people from Tianwaitian cross over his Qiandong City and massacre the people of Beili?
After all, each serves their own master and their own people!
"In that case, I, Marquis of Zhenxi, will not stand on ceremony!" Seeing that Baili Luochen was somewhat troublesome, Ye Dingzhi circulated his somewhat violent true energy and struck the Zhenxi army, which was arranged in a long snake formation, with a palm.
In an instant, the long snake formation was broken!
Marquis Zhenxi was stunned by Ye Dingzhi's strength: "This level of strength... is probably already above the Great Freedom Realm..."
"Well? Does the Marquis of Zhenxi still want to stop us?" Ye Dingzhi did not want to be enemies with Baili's grandfather, so he looked at Baili Luochen again.
Just then, an official supervising the battle advised, "Marquis Zhenxi, you cannot let them pass through Qiandong City so easily! Even if the opponent is a master!"
"If you're so good, why don't you go and do it yourself?!" Baili Luochen snapped out of his daze at Ye Dingzhi's strength and glared angrily at the supervising official.
Supervising officer: "..."
