Hui Ji, the most powerful person around the Immortal Golden Immortal whom Hu Ji mentioned before, and Deng Shuo, the most proud disciple of the Immortal Golden Immortal, disappeared in the chaos. Li Tianxing ordered the army to search for half a day, searching Jiuqu Mountain but could not find it, so he had to give up.
Li Tianxing went to clean the battlefield, take the surrendered Yongsheng Jinxian soldiers into custody, bury the fallen soldiers, etc. The soldiers under his command either helped to clean the battlefield and bury their fallen brothers, or they were too tired and adjusted their breathing on the spot. The entire battlefield gradually became silent, as if there was suddenly no sound between heaven and earth.
A soldier was injured. The severe pain made him groan and scream, but at this time he became quiet. He seemed to feel that the surroundings were quiet and it was hard for him to continue shouting. The military doctor who was treating him also stopped what he was doing and looked at the people around him who were all quiet and looked strangely nervous.
The sudden silence after the noisy battle made many people nervous. Most people thought that another enemy was attacking, and everyone became nervous.
Some people flew high into the sky to see if there were any more enemies coming, but there was no movement near Jiuqu Mountain and nothing was found.
There are no enemies here anymore. The reason why everyone suddenly became silent on their own initiative was just because everyone was frightened by the previous fierce battle. In the past, because the enemy was still there and could fight at any time, no one paid attention to this. Now that the enemy has been eliminated, everyone's thoughts have changed, their attention has shifted, and they all think of the previous battle, and they involuntarily become quiet.
No one can truly ignore the tragedy of the war. Even if they don't care during the battle, they will be involuntarily afraid after the battle. This is also human nature.
After a while, someone started talking, someone started doing things, and the place became noisy again, and gradually returned to normal... Li Tianxing stood at the top of Yongsheng Peak, looked at the soldiers on Yongsheng Peak from top to bottom, and suddenly felt something in his heart, muttering He murmured: "No matter what kind of war it is, it always makes people feel emotional..."
Li Zheng, who was standing next to Li Tianxing, also sighed: "How many good men have died in death, it makes people sigh when they think about it."
Li Tianxing glanced at Li Zheng and asked seriously: "The war is over, will the general stay in the court, or will he return to White Tiger City and become the carefree master of the Water Gate Sect?"
Li Zheng smiled bitterly and said: "Shuimen has long disowned me as the sect leader... What the general doesn't know is that Shuimen has always been unwilling to deal with the imperial court. It was me who insisted on going my own way and forcibly brought Shuimen into the Qilin Kingdom. Later, they collectively opposed me, I also knew that what I did was wrong, so I voluntarily gave up on the Water Gate Sect Master. Now there are others who are the Water Gate Sect Master, and they are scattered in various cities in the Qilin Kingdom, and they are as carefree as before. "
Li Tianxing said: "The general can't go back, so why would he want to create another career with Tianxing? Tianxing is willing to rebuild the Qilin Gate with the general..."
Li Zheng shook his head: "I'm tired. I want to rest for a while." He turned around and walked towards the foot of Yongsheng Peak. As he walked, he said: "Qilin Gate has become Qilin Kingdom. It can be said to be very prosperous for a while. Why do you have to think about it anymore?" What about going back to the past? Looking forward, haven’t you seen that Huangfu City has become a true immortal? We can’t miss the past anymore..."
Li Tianxing looked serious as he watched Li Zheng go down the mountain. He looked up at the increasing number of dark clouds in the sky, his expression changing rapidly. He seemed to have thought of something, and he froze completely motionless, without any expression for a long time.
After a while, Li Tianxing suddenly turned around and shouted loudly: "Speed up and clean the battlefield, it's going to rain..."
The soldiers looked at Li Tianxing together, and then they really speeded up their work. It seemed that everyone could tell that Li Tianxing was not in a good mood at this time.
Li Zheng's words may have touched Li Tianxing's heart and changed Li Tianxing, who was determined to rebuild Qilin Sect...
In Qilin City, the people put up lanterns and streamers to celebrate the Qilin Kingdom's victory over the Immortal Golden Immortal, which eliminated a major scourge in the world of immortality and restored a peaceful world to the world of immortality. Almost everyone was in high spirits, after all, everyone wanted peace.
The Imperial Palace was also celebrating. The steward, Dongfang Qing, directed everyone to decorate the Imperial Palace, filling it with a festive atmosphere that only existed during New Years and holidays in the past.
Qi Feihong sat on the imperial throne with a happy expression, looking at the ministers in the Qilin Hall, waiting patiently for the meritorious people to come to the Qilin Hall. He has prepared generous rewards. As long as the meritorious people arrive, he will personally reward them.
It has been two days since the war ended. Li Tianxing sent a battle report yesterday, describing the battle situation in detail, and said that he would rush back to Qilin City to return to Qi Feihong this morning. Qi Feihong arrived at the Qilin Hall before the morning dynasty began. Li Tianxing and others, who were waiting for the triumphant return with the ministers, wanted to reward them based on their merits.
One day later, Zhao Pan, who was waiting outside, entered the palace and reported: "The king, General Li Tianxing, General Li Zheng, and all the generals and commanders who participated in the war are here."
Qi Feihong stood up and said: "Please invite them in quickly, I... will go to greet them personally."
Qi Feihong came to the outside of Qilin Hall first and saw Li Tianxing and others approaching from a distance. They were a group of one hundred and ten people, all military generals and meritorious officials.
When Li Zheng and others saw Qi Feihong waiting outside the Qilin Hall, they speeded up and came to Qi Feihong. They saluted together and said, "I have met the Lord."
Qi Feihong smiled and said: "You are all meritorious ministers and meritorious officials of the Qilin Kingdom. You are triumphant today, so there is no need to be polite."
Li Tianxing and others stood up together, and Li Tianxing said: "The king personally greeted me, but I am ashamed to accept it. In this battle, it was the king's wise decision-making that led to the final victory. In fact, the king has a false reputation and dare not work for the king."
Qi Feihong laughed and said: "General, you're too polite. Without the generals and you guys sacrificing their lives to fight on the front line, no matter how thorough my plan is, how can I defeat the Immortal Golden Immortal? When it comes to the credit, it all belongs to you and your soldiers, and it's equal to mine." It doesn't matter much." After a pause: "Everyone, please come into the hall, I have something to say to you."
Everyone entered the Qilin Hall one after another. After Qi Feihong waited for everyone to come in, he said: "Today the frontline army has triumphed and the whole country is celebrating. I will reward the three armies based on their merits. Since the war started, General Li Zheng led the army first. The army fought hard with the enemy for a long time and recovered the territory occupied by Lu Hao, making great contributions, so I am the first to reward General Li Zheng."
When Qi Feihong said this, Zhao Pan had already sent an imperial edict and read aloud: "By the royal decree, General Li Zheng led his army to defeat Lu Hao and made outstanding achievements. He was given the title of White Tiger King, held the seal of command of the Third Army, and was granted the title of White Tiger City." .”
Li Zheng stepped forward to receive the order and thanked the Lord for the reward. His expression was as usual, but he was not happy or excited about receiving the reward. All the ministers congratulated him one after another, and the Qilin Hall was full of congratulations.
Qi Feihong didn't mind everyone's noise. After everyone congratulated Li Zheng, he said: "General Li Tianxing took over General Li Zheng and commanded the entire army. He fought a bloody battle with the Immortal Golden Immortal, and finally captured the Immortal Golden Immortal alive and wiped out countless enemy troops under the Immortal Immortal. , restored peace to the immortal world, and made immortal contributions, the second person I want to reward is General Li Tianxing."
Zhao Pan took out the second imperial edict and read it loudly: "The Holy Will of the King, General Li Tianxing is invincible and invincible in all battles. He has eradicated the greatest threat to the world of immortality, the Immortal Golden Immortal. For his outstanding achievements, he will be given the title of King Qilin and the seal of the Minister of the Ministry of War." , the fiefdom of Kuafu City."
After hearing Qi Feihong's decree, all the ministers were stunned. Everyone knows that Kuafu City is the northernmost city, and it is also a city that has just been conquered. Logically speaking, it should be personally controlled by the king, and rewards can be given after the city is stabilized. It seems a bit early for Qi Feihong to award Kuafu City to Li Tianxing so directly.
Naturally, everyone didn't know that this was actually Li Tianxing's own intention. He had agreed with Qi Feihong early in the morning that he would conquer Kuafu City after the war.
When it comes to rewards for meritorious deeds, Qi Feihong will never hit the target without aim, but has a plan in advance. But Qi Feihong didn't know that Li Tianxing might have given up the idea of rebuilding Qilin Gate at this time, or he might not want to live in Kuafu City permanently.
