War is a process of distribution of interests, with everyone competing for their own interests in the most intense way.
What Li Chengdao wants is to kill Long Chen to take revenge, re-establish the throne, and become emperor again.
Therefore, he must kill Long Chen, kill the empress, and destroy Eastern Zhou.
Yue Lang is different. He just wants to become the king of the ghost clan and live peacefully for hundreds of years.
Regarding the death of the ghost girl, it doesn't really matter who killed her. It's not Yue Lang's biological mother. If she kills her, she will be killed. If she dies, she will die.
He never really thought about avenging the ghost girl or anything, it had nothing to do with him.
In the past, he needed Li Chengdao to deal with Yue Xi, so he chose to cooperate with Li Chengdao.
Later, Li Chengdao was too strong and he did not dare to resist, so he could only follow.
Now that Long Chen is here, Li Chengdao is nothing, and he has room to choose.
He didn't want to fight anymore. If the fight continued, the Saint clan might be wiped out.
Yuelang needs a clan elder to go to peace talks and represent the entire ghost clan.
I asked again, but no one answered.
Everyone is afraid of Long Chen.
"Priest Zuo, I order you to go."
No one answered, just a roll call.
When Moeller was called, he immediately said: "Your Majesty, my people are here and cannot be separated."
Yue Lang said: "Your clan members are safe and sound here. You can go with peace of mind. If you don't go, once Long Chen comes over, your clan members...can't be saved."
As the king of the ghost clan, Yue Lang shouldn't say this.
This is equivalent to telling all the clan elders that the moon waves cannot cover them. What is the use of such a king?
"That's...okay."
Moeller had no choice but to agree.
No matter what, Yuelang is still the king in name only, and his people are indeed fine.
In order to save his people, Moeller decided to take a trip.
"Go now, time is urgent."
Yue Lang was even more anxious. He was vaguely worried. Li Chengdao and the demon fetus were defeated, but it was hard to say whether they were dead or not.
He had to negotiate peace with Long Chen before Li Chengdao came back, then withdraw from the battle and let Long Chen deal with Li Chengdao.
"good."
Moeller stood up and withdrew, said a few words to the tribesmen, took a few capable tribesmen, and immediately rushed to the mountain pass camp.
The ghost soldiers and other elders rested on the spot, waiting for news from Moeller.
...
East of the ice sheet.
Li Chengdao was carrying Xuangui on his back, and Spirit Snake was following behind. His eyes looked at Li Chengdao from time to time with strange expressions.
Li Chengdao could feel the gaze of the spirit snake, and felt helpless...
When the black turtle was picked up from the sea, the black turtle was seriously injured, and Li Chengdao just watched quietly.
His flesh and blood could heal the black turtle, but Li Chengdao did not do so.
His own cultivation level was already so bad that he couldn't even defeat the Empress. If he used flesh and blood to heal his wounds, he would become even weaker.
Moreover, Li Chengdao fed the black turtle flesh and blood in front of the spirit snake, and Li Chengdao was worried that the spirit snake would go wild and eat him.
Therefore, Li Chengdao could only watch quietly as the black turtle slowly recovered and became smaller.
Spirit Snake watched the black turtle become smaller and had her own thoughts in her heart. She felt that Li Chengdao could use flesh and blood to save the black turtle, but Li Chengdao did not do so.
She felt that this mother was no longer kissable.
Li Chengdao walked in front, carrying a black turtle on his back, looking a little rickety.
Spirit Snake stared at Li Chengdao's back closely, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Huh? Dead?"
The spirit snake suddenly stopped, and Li Chengdao turned around and asked, "Which one is dead?"
Spirit Snake said: "Yunnan, he is dead."
Yunan and Yulang were controlled by the charm of the spirit snake, and she could feel their life and death.
When Yu Nan was killed by Yue Lang, Spirit Snake immediately felt it.
"Discovered..."
Li Chengdao was a little surprised. This method of control was very secretive. Yu Nan and Yu Lang usually wouldn't show any abnormality, so logically they shouldn't be discovered.
"Yuelang is going to betray, you are a traitor and a traitor..."
Li Chengdao cursed and felt even more anxious.
"hurry up!"
Li Chengdao quickened his pace and led the spirit snake towards the northwest.
...
West of the ice sheet.
The great elders Ke Ling and Yu Lang rushed to the gentler part of the mountain with 20,000 soldiers and horses, and the ghost soldiers in front hurried back.
"Great Elder, they have come in."
Yu Lang said in surprise: "Have you seen it?"
The ghost soldier replied: "I didn't see it, but I found traces and two corpses. When I came down from the mountain, I hit a sharp rock and was penetrated through the body. I was already frozen."
Great Elder Ke Ling said: "That's right. Act according to His Majesty's plan and ambush here. Don't let Yu Wenkai leave."
Yu Lang was a little excited: "Yu Wenkai killed so many of our saints, we can finally kill him."
The generals under his command were very excited to see the two generals being so confident.
"Let's close the door and beat the dog, then go back and kill Long Chen."
"We must avenge our people."
Yu Lang ordered all the ghost soldiers to ambush and set traps at the same time.
The 20,000 ghost soldiers dispersed immediately, and the great elders Ke Ling and Yu Lang also lurked down, waiting for Yu Wenkai.
Two days later, there was no trace of Yu Wenkai, but a few ghost soldiers came from the east.
"Great Elder, Great Elder..."
The ghost soldiers shouted, and Ke Ling and Yu Lang crawled out of the snow.
"What's wrong?"
"The situation has changed. Your Majesty wants you to go back."
Ke Ling felt something was wrong and asked, "What's going on? Has Yu Wenkai been killed?"
The ghost soldier shook his head and said: "No, the emperor was defeated by Long Chen, and the army from the Central Plains has entered the holy realm."
Ke Ling was surprised: "How could it be? With the princess here, how could he lose to Long Chen?"
The ghost soldier shook his head and said: "I don't know, but that's it anyway. His Majesty asked you and the general to lead the troops back and stop ambushing here."
If Long Chen had already entered the ice field, it would be futile to ambush him here.
It may even be surrounded and destroyed by counterattacks.
"Walk!"
The elder ordered that all the ghost soldiers assemble and retreat.
...
Yu Wenkai followed the holy beast to the northeast for a few days, and there was a ghost tribe ahead.
The Holy Beast sent a beast to inquire about the situation, and Yu Wenkai also sent soldiers to inquire.
Soon, the spies came back.
"It's a ghost tribe's settlement. There are about eight thousand people. They are on guard. They seem to know that we are coming."
Yu Wenkai didn't find it strange. These ghosts were so frightened that they ran back to their territory because they knew Yu Wenkai was coming.
The wild beast chirped at the holy beast for a while, and the holy beast said: "There are not many people, so destroy them!"
Yu Wenkai had no objection, but Yu Ying couldn't help but said: "Old General, you have already wiped out three tribes."
"I made an agreement with King Wu that the one who asked me to surrender was not to kill them all."
The rabbit dies and the fox grieves, and things harm its kind.
Seeing the ghost clan being killed, Yu Ying couldn't bear it anymore.
Whether it was out of pity for her fellow tribesmen or for the sake of becoming king, she had to stand up.
The holy beast looked at Yu Wenkai and then at Yuying.
"Surrender? You can try it and see if they will agree to it."
Yu Wenkai did not hide anything this time, but made way.
"You wait."
The fish shadow ran towards the settlement in the distance.
The holy beast stared at Yu Wenkai coldly and asked, "What's going on?"
