When Li Xiuyuan and his party stepped on a mountain of thick spring fog and saw the mountain of fog as a mountain of mist and rain, the three of them had already boarded the carriage rented from the village.
The three wildebeests followed the carriage, stepping slowly and slowly, listening to the thoughts of the owner in the carriage.
"Brother, this mountain of apricot flowers is so beautiful hidden in the rain." Xiao Longer said.
"Li Xiuyuan, when you planted apricot flowers, did you ever think that one day you would be here in Litian?" Xiao Qing asked.
"I will take you through the route I took back then. I wonder if you will encounter wolves on the way." Li Xiuyuan replied nonchalantly.
The group entered Tianfeng City and found Overlord Chen who was staying at home.
Li Xiuyuan handed him a space ring and said with a smile: "Brother, please go to the palace and give this to the empress. Tell her not to be impatient and wait until autumn to open it..."
Overlord Chen took his hand and asked, "Would you like to find a place to have a good drink?"
Li Xiuyuan shook his head and replied: "It's a long way to the Silver Moon Kingdom. Wait until I come back and I'll beat you up and get you drunk."
Overlord Chen thought for a while and then asked: "Don't you want to meet the empress?"
Li Xiuyuan patted his shoulder and said, "I'm on my way!"
After speaking, he jumped on the carriage, waved to him and said, "Stay in the city and don't run around!"
Overlord Chen looked at him and shouted: "Be careful on the road!"
The driver shook off his whip and the carriage slowly left Tianfeng King City.
...
Chen, the overlord in the palace, found Queen Changsun who was staying with King Qin and handed over what Li Xiuyuan asked him to deliver.
Queen Changsun took the space ring, weighed it gently, looked at Overlord Chen and asked, "Where did Li Xiuyuan go?"
Overlord Chen quickly replied: "Silver Moon Kingdom."
"Oh!" Queen Changsun didn't expect Li Xiuyuan to do this, and waved to Overlord Chen: "Thank you for your hard work, go back."
Overlord Chen bowed his hands and said goodbye: "Empress, is Li Xiuyuan going north?"
Changsun looked at him and replied with a half-smile, "Who knows?"
Overlord Chen Yi was startled and did not dare to ask any more questions, so he quickly retreated.
After Overlord Chen left, King Qin looked at his eldest grandson and asked, "Does this kid want to raid Yinyue's lair?"
Empress Changsun looked at him and said with a smile: "This guy has a lot of ideas. Who knows what he wants to do? But his troubles are enough to give Princess Qingyue a headache."
"Based on the queen's wisdom, when will the war between the two countries end, and who will win?"
King Qin thought for a while, looked at him and asked with a smile.
Changsun lowered his head and thought for a while, then replied quietly: "Both countries are thinking not to send people into the Shura battlefield, and it has been less than two years since the Shura battlefield was opened. Qingyue naturally wants to win a quick victory, but Li Xiuyuan will not do it to her. meaning."
King Qin smiled and said: "Is it possible that it will be postponed until next spring?"
Changsun shook his head and said: "A smart person like Li Xiuyuan will not delay this winter. It's just that some things are not as good as God's. Who can predict when it will end?"
"Who will win?" King Qin asked.
"Yinyue will be defeated! It's just a matter of time. Li Xiuyuan is no longer the boy he was yesterday. Yinyue really shouldn't start this war." Changsun thought for a while and sighed softly.
After speaking, he looked at King Qin and smiled and said, "When the autumn wind blows, let's try the apricot flower wine brewed by Li Xiuyuan. This is a rare thing."
King Qin was startled and blurted out: "Is this the wine that Overlord Chen just sent?"
Changsun smiled and said: "He just brewed this from the apricot flowers that have just bloomed. This is a unique taste in Shura Heaven."
King Qin looked at his eldest grandson who was in a good mood and said with a smile: "Should we send spies to pay attention to this unprecedented battle?"
Changsun looked at him and said seriously: "Why not send? We are the only ones who know now. Send spies quickly. We want to know the war ahead."
...
Chu Feiyan had been waiting anxiously at the City Lord's Mansion in Black Salt City. She knew that with the obstacles she had set up in the winter, under the leadership of Princess Qingyue, that fragile line of defense simply could not last long.
She really wanted to know where the Silver Moon army had arrived at this time, and she had to lead the army to intercept it.
In a hurry, the tired Wei Qing entered the city lord's mansion.
Wei Qing's face looked a little tired. Even though he was distracted, it was not that easy to come back from Qingfeng Valley, not to mention the war was about to start.
When Wei Qing arrived, Chu Feiyan and Chu Ruoyu were making tea. When they saw Wei Qing coming in, they looked stunned and quickly greeted him.
"How is it? Has the opponent's army already moved outside Qingfeng Valley?" Chu Feiyan took a teacup and put it on it and asked.
"It's coming soon. When I came, the Silver Moon Army was still two hundred miles away from Qingfeng Valley, and they would arrive in less than a day." Wei Qing picked up the cup and took a sip of water.
"So, we still have a lot of time to prepare, and we hope it's not too late..."
After saying that, Chu Feiyan breathed a sigh of relief and replied, "This is exactly what Li Xiuyuan expected. Chu Chun and the others did not dare to advance too fast."
"Senior brother is naturally awesome." Wei Qing nodded without explaining anything.
Chu Wuyan didn't ask any more questions and changed the subject: "In this case, we will go to Qingfeng Valley with the army tomorrow. The second sister will stay in Black Salt City and be responsible for scattering the people here."
"What should I say? Do you really want to turn this place into an empty city?" Chu Ruoyu frowned. There was a national master and a eldest sister, so why did he still have to retreat?
A hint of helplessness flashed across Chu Wuyan's eyebrows, and he replied: "If you had a way to win this war, there would be no need for my brother to go all the way to invite Li Xiuyuan."
"It's been so long, why hasn't he come yet... Even a grown man is so annoying."
Chu Ruoyu's tone was very irritable. According to her and the Imperial Master, if Black Salt City could not be saved, there would be trouble in the final stage. In this case, Da Chu would be completely finished.
After a moment of silence, Chu Ruoyu continued to ask, "Where is Chu Feng, did he say anything?"
Chu Feiyan shook his head and sighed softly: "Chu Feng didn't say anything. He only said that he would respect Li Xiuyuan's plan. No matter what difficulties he encountered, he would stick to it until Li Xiuyuan's arrival."
Hearing this, Chu Ruoyu felt unspeakably complicated. This prince of Da Chu was the heir to the future king, and he was willing to believe in Li Xiuyuan. As his sister, he was really speechless.
Unfortunately, I don't know much about that guy.
"The people of Black Salt City can no longer stay! I led the army to Qingfeng Valley, but I only blocked them for ten and a half days, setting an ambush for the Silver Moon army, and could not hurt their roots..."
After finishing speaking, Chu Feiyan looked at Wei Qing and suddenly remembered something: "Wei Qing, where has your senior brother gone?"
"He should be sleeping in the room. What's wrong? Do you want me to find him?" Wei Qing asked in confusion.
In recent days, Chu Feng always complained that he was feeling sleepy, and even the Imperial Master Huangfu couldn't do anything after looking at it.
Although Chu Feiyan and Chu Ruoyu couldn't understand, there was nothing they could do about it. In fact, Chu Feng himself was speechless. The divine dragon body that had not broken through for a long time was about to break through to the second level.
He was looking forward to Li Xiuyuan's arrival more than anyone else. If there was anyone in the world who could help him, it was probably the guy in front of him.
"Let him sleep well for two days, and then wake him up when the army sets off." Chu Feiyan turned his eyes and said.
"Then I'll go back and get ready." Wei Qing returned with the two of them handing over their hands, got up and walked out.
"It's really troublesome. Once our army leaves, sister, you and the Imperial Master will immediately evacuate with the people. No one is allowed to be left behind." Chu Feiyan frowned and said again.
"Don't worry, eldest sister, I will do it and won't hold you back." Chu Ruoyu replied.
Although Chu Feiyan and Chu Ruoyu didn't understand why Li Xiuyuan arranged this, what did he mean.
But until there is no better way, they have no choice but to act according to the original plan. The outcome depends on this move, and no one can make the decision without authorization.
"Sister, we Da Chu always have to bear some responsibilities. Except for my younger brother and Wei Qing, I can't trust anyone else."
Chu Ruoyu said seriously.
"I understand." Chu Feiyan nodded. She didn't want to explain Li Xiudi's matter to her sister because she couldn't explain it clearly. Just from the changes in her brother, she could understand how powerful Li Xiuyuan was now.
Da Chu's combat power is not as good as that of Silver Moon Kingdom, so the only way is to do as Li Xiuyuan said.
But her younger sister was too willful, so she had no choice but to leave her behind and be responsible for leading the people to retreat.
There cannot be two voices in front of the army.
Before Chu Feng has fully grown up, she, the eldest sister, has no choice but to take on all responsibilities.
"When the army comes back from Qingfeng Valley, I don't want to see a common man or a businessman in the city lord! This is a military order, don't let me down."
Chu Feiyan thought for a while and said seriously.
She couldn't care less about the current situation. The army was pressing down on the situation and she was not allowed to think about any other messy things.
"I will try my best to ensure that the people in the city are evacuated when my sister comes back." Chu Ruoyu nodded.
There is no child's play before the army, she still knows this truth, and now is not the time for her to be willful.
"As long as we can win this battle, Dachu will strengthen the training of its army in the future. It is worth paying more for us now."
Chu Feiyan suddenly asked a confused question and said, "Besides, I believe him."
The man she was talking about was naturally Li Xiuyuan who was still on the road.
...
By the way, at this time, Li Xiuyuan had already switched to riding a horse, and the carriage asked him to ride back to the Tianfeng Kingdom.
Because Tianmen Pass was so close, the three of them came to the place where he fell off the cliff.
Holding Xiao Longer's hand, Li Xiuyuan pointed to the high cliff and said with a smile: "My brother was here when he was nine years old. He was knocked off the cliff and broke a dozen legs...until the dean brought him down." I will save the academy."
"Who is that bad guy? Xiao Long'er avenged his brother! Xiao Long'er clenched his fists and said.
"I have forgotten what he looks like... As long as he doesn't come to trouble me anymore, I might let him go. After all, my brother's cultivation was too low back then." Li Xiuyuan replied lightly.
"So this is how you came to the academy?" Xiaoqing frowned. She didn't know about Li Xiuyuan's whereabouts until now, because the teacher never told him, and Li Xiuyuan would not tell him.
"So what? Then I met you in the back mountain differently?" Li Xiuyuan looked at her and smiled.
"The teacher said you are a legend." Xiaoqing looked at him and smiled, with a very gentle smile. She remembered everything before she transformed, and this guy was really nice to her.
After all, during the few years in the back mountain, Li Xiuyuan had been trying to find ways for her to break through the realm and transform, and finally asked the disciples of the Demon Realm to take her to Tianhuang City...
"I miss my teacher a little, Li Xiuyuan." Xiaoqing said softly, looking at Tianmen Pass in the distance.
"I can't help it. My current level is too low... Let's wait for a few decades. There will be a day."
Li Xiuyuan followed her gaze and said quietly.
"Brother, where should we stay for one night?" Xiao Long'er asked, pointing to Tianmen Pass not far ahead.
