Dong Guochang is still the same as always, modest and polite. Although his clothes are not luxurious, they are neat and clean, giving people a good impression.
Although his appearance and demeanor have not changed much, Dong Guochang's cultivation has become more and more unfathomable. According to Nan Zhongdao's estimation, he is definitely not an opponent and may not be inferior to top masters such as Tantai Xian.
After entering the Martial Arts Hall, luck came to the fore. Unlike Tantai Xian, Huan Zhongkui and other lonely ghosts, Dongguo Chang's cultivation level recovered very quickly and had already reached a breakthrough level.
Dongguo Chang and others did not break through the realm because once they broke through and achieved Hedao cultivation, they would not be able to take action, and it would be inconvenient for them to deal with worldly affairs.
If you can't deal with worldly matters, you won't be able to increase your luck, which is more important than breaking through the realm.
For them, staying in the virtual realm accumulates more luck and accumulates deeper cultivation, so that the road after breaking through the realm will be easier. Only by laying a solid foundation can they go further in the future.
"Master, how should I address you?" Dong Guo Chang said, raising a very sensitive question.
Dong Guochang and others swore allegiance to Chu Xiang and Jiangwu Hall. Now Chu Xiang is frozen in time and space forever. Although he is no different from death, to be precise, he is not dead. He is still the leader of Jiangwu Hall. Nan Zhongdao is just A successor, to be precise, the person who temporarily controls the Martial Arts Hall, does not have all the control rights of Dong Guochang and others.
Another point is that Dong Guochang is still not convinced by Nan Zhongdao's current actions. Although Nan Zhongdao defeated the Ji family in a battle and became the undoubted leader of the Jiangwu Hall, for Dong Guochang and the others, they are still far away from conquering them. far away.

Gongsun Qi tried his best to help the martial arts hall in times of crisis, but he still couldn't conquer them, let alone the fledgling Nan Zhongdao. There was only one person who could convince them, Demon Lord Chu Xiang.
"You can call me the manager." Nan Zhongdao said without hesitation.
The general manager is the general manager of everything in the martial arts hall.
Dong Guochang bowed slightly to express his recognition of Nan Zhongdao's identity.
"The general manager called me here. What do I need from my subordinates?" Dong Guochang asked.
"In your opinion, why did they choose this time to besiege Qin Ling?" Nan Zhongdao asked.
This is a very critical issue, time is of the essence.
"Halfway through the three-year agreement, based on your guess, when will Emperor Qin be resurrected?" Dong Guo often asked rhetorically without answering.
"Before the three-year agreement expires and before Kunlun is born." Nan Zhongdao thought for a moment and said.
The three-year agreement expires and Kunlun is born. At that time, the world will come to China. It is hard to say whether Qin Ling can be saved. Therefore, if Emperor Qin is resurrected, he will definitely choose to do it before the three-year agreement expires. Be prepared to deal with the world before it comes.
"They have basically recovered their strength during this period. Once the siege fails, they must have enough time to recuperate and plan a second siege. They must launch another attack before Emperor Qin's resurrection." Dong Guo Chang said.
Although these demons want to be destroyed in one fell swoop
Qin Ling, but the Emperor Qin's plan is not so easy to break, not to mention that they were prisoners of Emperor Qin two thousand years ago. In front of Emperor Qin who calculated everything, they must leave a way out and a chance to make a comeback.
Nan Zhongdao nodded.
"They were summoned by the Demon God and Demon Ancestor, why are you not restricted?" Nan Zhongdao asked.
"When they were imprisoned, they were the disciples chosen by the Demon God and Demon Ancestor. Naturally, they had to take orders. We are the little minions that no one cares about. We are just living an ignoble life, but we can be free." Dongguo Chang said.
"Being favored by demon gods and demon ancestors, does that mean their strength is far superior to yours?"
"It can be said that whether they were imprisoned or after breaking the seal, they were stronger than us." Dongguo Chang said.
To be selected by the Demon God and Demon Ancestor, strength must be the first factor. If there is no external help after the seal is broken, Dong Guochang and the others will definitely not be as strong as those disciples of the Demon God and Demon Ancestor.
"How many demons like you do you think are willing to live under others and work for others?" Nan Zhongdao asked a very sensitive question.
The demons of Xidu were originally powerful, but they had no choice but to be imprisoned. After they came out, they became rats on the street and everyone yelled and beat them. For them who are used to being the boss, being subordinate to others is definitely an unbearable thing.
"Not much." Dong Guochang only used two words.
"Isn't it a great honor for our martial arts hall?" Nan Zhongdao asked. This was an impolite remark, and it was also a probing remark.
"There are not many heroes in the world like Demon Lord Chu Xiang." Dong Guochang said slowly.
Nan Zhongdao suddenly sighed and said slowly: "The hall master's style is beyond our reach!"
In today's world, there is no one who can be as elegant and unparalleled as the Demon Lord Chu Xiang, even the Martial Saint Sun Ying is a little inferior.
"What do you think of the current situation?" Nan Zhongdao asked.
Dong Guochang knew that this was really getting to the point, and the new manager's probing and beating on him had ended.
"Sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight." Dongguo Chang said. The first thing he gave was the Wutang Hall's own response.
Dong Guochang naturally knew that Nan Zhongdao ordered the evacuation of all martial arts hall personnel, but this did not affect Dong Guochang's own judgment.
Nan Zhongdao nodded: "In your opinion, where does the pressure on the fifth company mainly come from?"
"Demon, demon, Taoist gate." Dongguo Chang said.
"The Taoist sect shouldn't join forces with demons and demons, right?"
"Of course not. Scheming against each other is definitely inevitable."
With constraints from three parties, it may be even harder to get things done.
"Which side do you think has a better chance of winning this battle?" Nan Zhongdao asked.
"The number is five to five," Dongguo Chang said.
Nan Zhongdao was surprised to judge that the attacker actually had a 50% chance of winning. In his opinion, it was at most 20%.
"What's the basis?" Nan Zhongdao asked.
"The attacker is active and the defender is passive." Dongguo Chang said.
In Dong Guochang's view, being actively
The difference in movement can actually have such a big impact and increase the odds of victory and defeat so much. Nan Zhongdao had to think about whether there was something wrong with his judgment.
If there is a balance of victory and defeat, then this war may not be over in a short time. If it is a protracted war, not only the surrounding Qin Mausoleum, but also Anxi City will be reduced to ruins.
In a battle involving the Hedao level, if a Hedao master chooses to take action, even Nan Zhongdao will not be able to escape death, let alone the rest of the Jiangwu Hall.
The chance of a Hedao master taking action is not low. The demon is very likely to use several Hedao masters as cannon fodder, exchanging one for one with the fifth family's Hedao masters, consuming their power.
And once a Hedao master takes action, there may be cannon fodder for hundreds of miles around, and no one can survive alone.
But if everyone in the Jiangwu Hall is withdrawn, the Jiangwu Hall will become blind, unable to understand what happened in Anxi, and can only judge from hearsay.
After thinking for a moment, Nan Zhongdao ordered again that all personnel of the Jiangwu Hall should evacuate from Anxi territory immediately.
This is the safest way. The Martial Arts Hall is not strong enough and there is no need to get involved in this level of gaming.
Seeing the retreat order issued by Nan Zhongdao, Dong Guochang's eyes changed somewhat, implying approval. It is not advisable to shake a tree with a fly, and conserving strength in the current situation is the right approach.
Feeling the terrifying pressure of heaven and earth, Maitong has been hesitating whether to leave. Now that he has received the second order to retreat, Maitong no longer hesitates and immediately rushes out of the city.
When passing the ruins of Weiyang Palace, Maitong landed on the ground and rushed to a slope. On the slope, a young man stood looking at the sky in the distance. A long sword with a rusty hilt hung on his waist, with a cold face. There was no expression on his face, there were many scars on his head and face, and one of his ears was missing.
Mai Tong flew over, and the young man holding one ear wanted to leave. The young man did not obey Mai Tong's action, shook off Mai Tong's hand, and stared blankly at the sky in the distance.
"Follow me quickly, it's too dangerous here." Maitong shouted, grabbing the hand of the one-eared young man and pulling him up into the air.
"Are you afraid of death?" The one-eared young man said coldly.
"Of course I'm afraid of death." Maitong said it righteously.
"Then we are not friends." The one-eared young man said coldly.
"Brother, if you are not afraid of death, it depends on the time. If you look like this, you don't know how you will die if you stay here." Maitong shouted.
"If you want to go, go." The one-eared young man was unmoved and shook off Mai Tong's hand.
Maitong couldn't leave on his own. From the moment he took over the task, he was tied to Wu Buer. His mission is to pay attention to Wu Buer's movements and try to ensure Wu Buer's safety.
Wu Buer was a key personnel. Chu Xiang personally issued the order after leaving Qin Ling, and had long-term contact and understanding of Wu Buer's movements.
After selection, Mai Tong became the candidate for this task, and successfully became friends with Wu Bu'er. They experienced many disasters together. Now for Mai Tong, Wu Bu'er is his true friend.
