The two of them were lost in thought together.
Chen Xiao knows something about this Soul-Destroying City.
During the royal hunting that day, the son of the lord of Duanhun City was killed by him.
Since then, there has been a rift.
But this is a personal grudge. Now that Baiyun Country is in trouble, Duanhun City does not need an army of 700,000 even though it is handing over to Gaoli Country.
The overall national power of the Gaoli Kingdom is far inferior to that of the Baiyun Kingdom. Moreover, Duanhun City is surrounded by tall stone walls on both sides, and there is only one canyon that can enter the city.
The cliffs on both sides tower into the clouds and are smooth as mirrors.
It can be said that one man can guard the gate, no one can open it, and one hundred thousand defenders can resist the army of Gaoli.
This is also the origin of Broken Soul City.
Over the past hundred years, the Gaoli Kingdom invaded the Baiyun Kingdom several times, and each time the entire army was wiped out, hence the name of Duanhun City.
"Wouldn't the royal family intervene?"
Chen Xiao continued to ask.
As long as the royal family gives an order, Duanhun City has no reason not to send troops.
"The transfer order has been issued a long time ago. Duanhun City used various excuses, saying that the Gaoli Kingdom had invaded many times and did not dare to mobilize the army for the time being."
If this matter is not mentioned, Yi Kang is not angry, but if this matter is mentioned, he becomes angry.
"They actually disobeyed military orders!"
A trace of anger flashed in Chen Xiao's eyes. Although he didn't have much sense of belonging to the Baiyun Kingdom, he still didn't want the Baiyun Kingdom to perish.
What is the difference between Soul-Dead City's approach and rebellion.
"The general is outside, and military orders are not obeyed."
Yi Kang smiled bitterly. Among the 700,000 troops stationed in Duanhun City, more than 500,000 of them were soldiers from the Royal Palace. How could they be easily mobilized.
"If the fight really starts, how long can Baiyun Country hold on?"
What Chen Xiao is now concerned about is how long Baiyun Country can hold on. If this continues, Baiyun Country will be in danger.
Even if the exchange conference defends Xifeng City, it will lose the city sooner or later. With the nature of Su Ruirui and Yi Kang, they will never retreat until the last soldier is killed.
They are Chen Xiao's few remaining friends in Baiyun Country, and Chen Xiao certainly doesn't want to see them die in battle.
"Let's not talk about these spoiling things. Let's drink. Tonight is for you. Let's not talk about official business."
Yi Kang changed the topic, picked up his wine glass, and bumped it with Chen Xiao.
Many other generals also came to greet the martial arts students.
As for Chen Xiao, he was simply ignored by those officials.
It seems that Su Ruirui is not easy to be a general. In addition to hundreds of thousands of her own soldiers, the army dispatched is not under her control at all.
During the several charges half a month ago, Su Ruirui basically led his army to the front.
Now the Su family's army suffered heavy losses, but the other armies were intact.
"This is the list of the Qingyuan Kingdom Exchange Meeting. Keep it. I have marked all the people on it. Don't let it out."
Yi Kang looked around and found that no one was paying attention to them. He quietly took out a list and stuffed it into Chen Xiao's hand.
The lists of various countries are all secrets, and the same is true for the list of Baiyun Country, which cannot be leaked.
"How did you get it?"
Chen Xiao quickly hid the list in his sleeves and asked in a low voice.
"A few days ago, we went out to fight and found a small caravan. After being interrogated by us, we actually caught a Qingyuan Kingdom spy. Under severe torture, this person was an instructor of the Qingyuan Kingdom Martial Arts Academy. He mainly came to Baiyun. country to inquire about information.”
Yi Kang lowered his voice, it was entirely a coincidence.
Chen Xiao nodded. With this list, he can better understand his opponents.
The banquet lasted for an hour. After Yi Kang left, he felt a little bored and left the hall and returned to his room.
He took out the list and put it under the light. Thirty names appeared in front of him.
Several of the names are highlighted with red markers.
These people who marked them are all dangerous people, so Chen Xiao must be careful.
"Together!"
"Feng Juncheng!"
"Yan Guiyun!"
Especially these three words, actually circled in black pen. Obviously these three people pose the greatest threat to Baiyun Kingdom.
There are quite a few Juyuan Ninth Level people here in Baiyun Kingdom, more than a dozen of them. I don’t know how strong they are compared to these few people.
After reading it, I put the list on the flame and it quickly turned into a pile of ashes.
As soon as the sky dawned, Chen Xiao walked into the courtyard to stretch his body and practice the Blood Rainbow Sword Technique.
With continuous breakthroughs in cultivation, the Blood Rainbow Sword Technique has reached its peak and cannot go any further.
On the other hand, the seven styles of Caitian are improving very quickly, especially the Ruthless Slash, which can already be performed.
Ruthless Slash has completely mastered its essence. Relying on Ruthless Slash, it is not a big problem to kill the sixth level of Juyuan.
Coupled with the Ruthless Slash, there is a chance of winning against the eighth level of Juyuan.
If you want to deal with the ninth level of Juyuan, it is far from enough, unless you can break through to the third level of Juyuan.
The time is too short. If he is given a few more days, he will definitely be able to open the three major doors of Juyuan.
The soldiers brought breakfast to him. After Chen Xiao finished eating, he continued to practice in the house.
Do everything possible to improve your own cultivation.
In the morning, the sound of war drums was heard, and a small group of soldiers from the Qingyuan Kingdom appeared to fight in the territory of the Baiyun Kingdom, and happened to encounter the patrolling Baiyun Kingdom soldiers.
After a fight, everyone suffered casualties.
After a day's rest, everyone's energy and spirit were at their best, and it was finally the day of the exchange meeting.
Stepping out of the city lord's palace, in addition to Wang Cang accompanying him, the city's defenders would also dispatch 10,000 soldiers to escort them throughout the journey.
It's not that I'm worried about the safety of these people, it's mainly about their momentum.
The students who fought for the Baiyun Kingdom were all outstanding, and one was worth a thousand.
With great force, they left Xifeng City and headed towards the northern plains.
Su Ruirui stood on the city wall, watching Chen Xiao and others leave, with Yi Kang standing next to him.
"Tell me if Brother Chen can come back alive if we go this time."
Su Ruirui looked at Chen Xiao's back, as if talking to herself or to Yi Kang.
Every year at the exchange meeting, there are casualties, especially among the weaker students.
Ten people died last year, five were seriously injured, and everyone had minor injuries.
"I can't die. Brother Chen won't die easily."
Yi Kang chuckled, thinking of Chen Xiao's methods of hunting various sinister people in the royal family, Yi Kang believed that Chen Xiao would not die easily.
Su Ruirui nodded and agreed with what Yi Kang said.
This was the first time that he did not refute Yi Kang's opinion.
In the past, when the two communicated, any suggestions made by Yi Kang would be rejected by Su Ruirui.
The figures were getting further and further away, and they were no longer visible. The exchange meeting was held at the junction of the two countries. This place was called the Setting Sun Valley.
Perennial wars have caused the Valley of the Setting Sun to be devastated, and it can be said that not a single blade of grass can grow.
The Setting Sun Valley is divided into two parts, with the south part belonging to the Baiyun Kingdom and the north part belonging to the Qingyuan Kingdom.
At this moment, ten arenas were set up in the middle area.
There were flags all around the ring.
The two countries each built five towers, with Baiyun Kingdom on the left and Qingyuan Kingdom on the right.
The moment the 10,000-strong army arrived, they quickly formed a battle formation and guarded the border to prevent people from the Qingyuan Kingdom from setting foot on the land of the Baiyun Kingdom.
The same goes for the Qingyuan Kingdom, which sent an army of 10,000 to face the Baiyun Kingdom's army at a distance, separated by a valley.
The arena is located in the middle area between the armies of the two countries.
The people from Qingyuan Kingdom had arrived, and the leader was Tian Xingchang. Chen Xiao saw this person when they were far away.
He is even more powerful than he was half a year ago, with a strong aura and a rosy complexion. It seems that his cultivation has improved a lot in the past six months.
On the contrary, in Baiyun Kingdom, Wang Cang's complexion was getting worse day by day.
The north wind blows and the war drums sound.
There is no need to explain the rules. When I came, the instructor had already explained them very clearly.
Everyone has to go on stage and fight each other.
The exchange meeting does not matter life or death. If you accidentally die in the hands of the other party, you can't blame anyone.
After entering this place, all the students calmed down their expressions. Even the old students who had participated in last year's exchange meeting looked solemn at this moment.
"Wang Cang, long time no see. I wonder how you are lately."
Across the valley, Tian Xingchang spoke with a hint of provocation in his tone.
