As the news of the emperor's injury spread, the Shenyu Army's fighting spirit plummeted. After several battles, many of them were killed, and they had no choice but to give the order to temporarily avoid the enemy.
The Shenyu Army retreated.
The three-party coalition led by Huangcheng made a decisive decision and marched straight in to take over the abandoned cities and gradually erode and digest the great national destiny of the Shenyu Dynasty.
The situation of the battle turned around.
One side of the river is declining, while the other side is gaining momentum. As one wanes and the other rises, the momentum of the three coalition forces has reached an unprecedented peak, suppressing the Shenyu Army.
The latter repeatedly retreated.
As a result, some noble families had dissent, and began to secretly send people to contact the coalition forces, acting as wavering grassroots, falling to whichever side the wind was strong.
In their eyes.
The current Shenyu Dynasty is like a candle in front of the wind or a lamp in the rain. It may fall apart at any time. Instead of being foolish and loyal and stubbornly resisting, it is better to worship at the top of the mountain as soon as possible.
They did the same thing back then when Dong Yunyue trampled the mountain gate to pieces.
…
one year later.
All the remnants of Shenyu's army retreated into Tai'an City, remaining in peace for a while without the courage to fight again.
Heavy snow sealed the territory, the city gates were tightly closed, nine thousand eight hundred miles of wolf smoke obscured the clouds and the moon, the sound of horse hooves stirred up dust, the military formation was like a black tide, locking up the capital, and soldiers surrounded Tai'an.
"Long!"
The war drums beat in unison, eighty-nine tall figures stood in the sky, and the formation was called before the battle:
"Empress Dongyun, do you dare to show up and fight with us!"
The breeze is blowing slowly, and there is an extra phoenix chair at the top of the city. Dong Yunyue is leaning on it and looking sideways.
"Jiu Que, Lord of Yuanhuang City."
"Xiao Ming Wang Zhu Tianyin."
"The Ming Dynasty King Zhu Tianyang."
"Zhu Tiance, the leader of the Sun and Moon Cult."
"Xue Fengdao, the master of the Demon Sealing Palace."
"Deputy Demon Sealing Palace Guo Ziming."
"The master of Dongtian Island is Xiang Jiezi."
"The Green-faced Ghost King of the Green Ghost Tribe."
She read out the names of the Mortal Slayer Realm in front of her like a treasure trove, and her brows were as calm as a deep pool, vast and deep. No matter how many hurricanes passed by, I remained calm.
"Not counting the one from Qingfengguan, all the Mortal Slayers in the world are here. Tsk, it seems that all of you are determined to kill me today... Okay, very good!"
The atmosphere was tense.
"Empress Shenyu."
The Lord of Huangcheng said calmly:
"to be honest."
"I used to admire you and thought you were a person, until you foolishly entrusted the Imperial Seal to a person who was beyond your control..."
"Do you think he can help you by giving him the Imperial Seal? Oh, naive, right now your Shenyu country is facing a crisis and is about to be destroyed. Where are the others? Huh? Where are they?"
Xue Fengdao immediately continued:
"I guess I've escaped long ago. The nine mortal-slaying realms are gathered together. Looking at the whole world, I can't find another one like this. Who wouldn't be frightened to see it?"
"Haha, what a bullshit Peach Blossom Sword God, it's just an empty name."
Zhu Tiance then sneered:
"Thinking back to those days, when this boy conquered the entire Buddhist land, killed the Buddha master, and then forced Qingfeng to escape from the world. I am afraid that he has exhausted his reserves long ago, and now he is at the end of his battle..."
"Humph, so what if he still has the strength to fight?"
"The foolish king is ignorant and the situation is over. It is God's will for us to raise troops to attack Yu. God wants to destroy Shen Yu. Under the torrent of the times, all existences are like ants!"
"Yes, our words and deeds coincide with the will of the Supreme God. Even if the so-called Sword God comes in person, we don't need to be afraid. Does he dare to go against the general trend?"
Dong Yunyue said nothing, quietly listening to their pretense.
suddenly.
The Green Ghost King pointed his finger at her, with a sinister smile on his face:
"Little emperor, to be honest, the three of us brothers have admired you for many years. As long as you agree to be our dual cultivation cauldron, I can make the decision to ensure your survival."
"oh?"
Dong Yunyue suddenly became interested, straightened her chest and asked:
"Is this true?"
"a man of his words!"
"think about it."
The empress lowered her head, pretended to be thoughtful, raised her eyebrows, raised the corners of her mouth, and smiled mockingly: "Sorry, I refuse, I have a master~"
Say it.
Like a proud phoenix, she raised her chin and openly revealed the collar tied to her neck: "Mum, this is a gift from the master to me, doesn't it look good?"
It was the first time he revealed his relationship with Chen Yi in public.
I used to be afraid that rumors would affect the other party, but now I am no longer afraid: because after today, this will no longer be a shame, but a kind of supreme... glory!
She has confidence in her master.
But only for her.
On the battlefield, everyone was stunned.
What did they hear?
Dong Yunyue, the founding emperor of the Shenyu Dynasty, this woman who claims to be the most noble and arrogant woman in the world, is actually someone's slave in private? Is she still wearing a collar?
I couldn't believe my eyes.
Incomprehensible, unbelievable, suspicious, hard to accept... Countless eyes with different thoughts focused on Dong Yunyue, making her whole body feel hot.
"Did your Majesty drink last night?"
"No way."
"Then why are you just talking nonsense?"
"Speak."
"Who is the master in Your Majesty's mouth?"
"Who else could it be? The one from the palace."
Dong Yunyue blinked at Zuo Zining: "You don't have to be envious, Prime Minister Zuo. Once things happen here, I will go and beg the master to take you in too. Let's turn the king and his subjects into sisters."
Zuo Zining:?
My head feels itchy.
It feels like I'm going to have a back bone, or is it going to go back? Follow her for the rest of your life!
Thinking that the fruit he was eyeing was caught first by another man, the green-faced ghost king was immediately filled with jealousy. His eyes were about to burst, and he almost wanted to kill someone. He roared in a low voice:
"Dong Yunyue, are you looking for death?"
"Are you in a hurry?"
Dong Yunyue licked her lips provocatively, half-squinted her eyes, and rubbed her collar in a daze: "That night was the most unforgettable in my life, Master..."
Hear the words.
King Qinggui subconsciously thought about it: The cold and charming Empress Dongyun was scolding the ministers in the Jinluan Palace one second, but appeared in the secret room the next second, begging...
No.
Probably, he couldn't even beg for mercy: how could that bitch let go of her delicate lips? What greeted her was only cruel torture...
"ah!!!"
The Green Ghost King looked up to the sky and roared, his vertical pupils covered with bloodshot eyes, fierce light bursting out, and he squeezed out a sentence from the gaps in his mouth full of fangs: "Dong Yunyue, you are going too far!"
"Can't stand it anymore?"
"Where are you going? In my opinion, you might as well surrender yourself to the palace. In this case, I might be merciful and allow you to kneel outside the palace and listen to my fairy voice..."
"Oh, you're so mean."
Dong Yunyue spat out a mouthful of blood with fragments of internal organs. Zuo Zining hurriedly stepped forward to wipe the blood stains from the corners of her mouth: her injuries were not staged, they were really seriously injured.
See it.
The master of the Demon Sealing Palace grabbed the furious Green Ghost King, shook his head gently, and then winked at the unfeminine Jiuque, who understood and waved his hand:
"Siege the city!"
It's best to negotiate, but if you can't reach an agreement, then fight!
The ground shook.
The 800,000 tiger and wolf troops, shouting and howling, armed with all kinds of weapons, rushed towards Tai'an City. Dong Yunyue tapped her toes on the ground, and the stream of light turned, and Tai'an City Protection Formation opened.
Crossbowmen and artillerymen also boarded the city.
At the city gate below, the infantry and cavalry were guarding together, and mana from the Dantian was pouring desperately into the formation. The killing formation showed its power, covering thousands of miles in radius, taking advantage of the wind, snow and rain to kill people.
However, nine divine clouds suddenly fell into the formation.
The nine figures descending from the sky were like breaking bamboo, hitting the formation gate almost at the same time.
Demon power, sword energy, Taoism, mysterious powers...
After a round of attack, the killing formation switched to defending formation, all methods were countered, the pressure from the sky shook out, the blood of the nine people surged, each took a few steps back, but never took a breath.
Instead, it hit the original position again with even greater speed than before.
The second impact, the defenders in the city were hit hard, and they were knocked off their feet. The nine people still fell back and gained momentum. The third time, the fourth time, the fifth time, the sixth time...
Nine divine clouds.
They collided violently again and again, each time faster than the last time. I don't know how many defenders were injured because of this, but if one group died, another group would quickly replace it.
On these nine straight lines, no matter whether you are a master of the golden elixir or the Nascent Soul stage, if you block the opponent's path, you will definitely die in an instant. Those people are really defending the city with their lives.
I don’t know how many infantry and cavalry, I don’t know how many centurions and thousands of captains, and I don’t know how many distinguished generals in the capital camp, died so inexplicably.
The next collision was even more astonishing, and even the mortals shivering in their homes could see the ripples of energy filling the air with their naked eyes.
But this time.
They had not reached the city gate, and when they were still half a mile away from the city gate, they could not get closer. Nine roars and divine power were like thunder: "Who is blocking the way!"
The city gate is open.
A precious chariot drove up from the city, and the chariot was driven by a woman, dressed in green clothes, with exquisite fox eyes, and an unparalleled appearance. She looked like a newly grown fox, and she was terrifyingly enchanting.
The treasure chariot stopped directly between Tai'an City and the 800,000-strong army.
Two girls came down first. They were wearing white clothes and swords on the left, and they were wearing black skirts and swords on the right. They wore silver ribbons to tie their hair. They were standing at the steps of the chariot. They stretched out their hands to open the curtain.
There was another man in red clothes, bending down respectfully, with his head buried low and his hands resting on his hands. A hand that was fairer and more delicate than hers lightly touched the back of her hand.
A young gentleman with an indifferent expression, dressed in the attire of a laid-back prince.
He raised his head and glanced at the nine people who were not much different from the seven fairies who had been affected by the immobilization spell. He smiled slightly and walked towards the army together with the maid in red makeup beside him.
then.
As if they were walking in their own courtyard, the two of them walked slowly past the sturdy soldiers. Everyone's eyes were always on the maid holding the young master's hand.
Because no one dared to look at the young master.
When he passed half of the soldiers, the young master suddenly put his hands behind his back and turned to look at the maid in red: "Red Musk, do you think you will be punished by God for killing so many people?"
The maid in red asked softly: "Master, why are you afraid?"
"What do you think?"
"Then the master just wants to kill. If there is really a retribution from heaven, it's the red musk deer."
The young master said that the murderous karma I caused cannot be attributed to you, and then he rudely ruffled the maid's hair, which she had spent half an hour putting up.
The maid didn't stop him, she just sighed.
The young man laughed heartily.
The maid had long been accustomed to this, so she held out a sword with a nonchalant look on her face.
That day, outside Tai'an City.
The allied forces of the three sects made a desperate move, with 800,000 cavalry pressing down on the border. The young master, who was called the Heavenly Emperor by the female emperor of the Shenyu Dynasty, took his maid out of the city and struck a sword while talking and laughing.
He has fought for three thousand miles, and his sword has served as a division for millions.
A little bit of frost in the Thirteen States, half of the red clouds are as deep as blood.
In front of him was a high mountain of corpses, and behind him was an endless sea of blood. Densely packed minced meat fell like raindrops. The robes of him and the maid were spotless.
"a little cold."
The maid took out a jar of warm wine.
He drank it all in one gulp.
"Good wine."
