Zhang Qi's words are heart-breaking in every sentence.
Looking at the surging crowd in front of him, Song Juncheng's face turned pale. If someone could destroy the Mingguang Society, it would probably not be difficult to kill him. If that were the case, he would really have nothing to say even if he died.
Just when Song Juncheng was feeling cold all over his body, Zhang Qi suddenly turned around and shouted loudly to the citizens of Canyue Town,
"You guys let me down so much. Don't you know what to do when this happens?"
When Song Juncheng heard this, he felt that this matter had taken a turn for the worse. It turned out that Zhang Qi was still worried about the influence of the Mad War Sect, but Zhang Qi's next words made him go downhill like a roller coaster.
"You've been bullied so much that you're still crying like a little kid. Aren't you a man? Next time something like this happens, kill him first. I'll take care of anything!"
"Ah!" The citizens of the Remnant Town heard their blood boil with excitement. The anger in Shang Ding's eyes instantly turned cold, and murderous intent suddenly emerged.
At this time, no matter how stupid Song Juncheng was, he knew that Zhang Qi had murderous intentions. He was decisive and retreated directly, his body shooting out like a bolt of lightning, and he did not care about the subordinates who came with him.
Zhang Qixin said, I didn't expect that this guy is actually a strong speed man, but with the same speed as me, Zhang Qi...
A cold light suddenly appeared from the void, one turned into ten, ten turned into a hundred, covering all the directions in which he retreated. If Song Juncheng insisted on retreating, the result would be countless big holes in his body.
Song Juncheng was worthy of being in the realm of Xu Chi, and his reaction was extremely fast. A powerful wall of swords appeared out of thin air, blocking him and Zhang Qi.
However, everything he had planned was in Zhang Qi's calculations. At the moment when the sword wall was taking shape, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his left arm, and then his side felt cold. When he looked back, he saw that his arm was broken at the shoulder level.
The knife cut off his arm, and Song Juncheng was so frightened that he broke into cold sweat and could no longer care about the pain.
Zhang Qizheng caressed the bone dagger casually, as if all this did not matter to him at all, but the more this happened, in Song Juncheng's eyes, Zhang Qi became a devil seeking life. In fact, Zhang Qi could not easily cut off the void with one knife. Red Arm, just because Song Juncheng had the idea of escape before fighting, he lost his momentum and naturally could not display half of his strength. In addition, in the panic, all the counterattacks were calculated by Zhang Qi, so he had a decisive blow. Xu Chiji’s unexpected achievement.
When Xuan Tiancheng saw that Zhang Qi had taken action, he withdrew his ruling. He realized the crux of the problem and blocked Shang Ding who was about to take action, because one of the two fighting parties was the Lord of Tianqi City and the other was the Messenger of Tianqi. If only Zhang Qi took action, Tianqi would The Weeping Presbyterian Church has absolutely nothing to say, but if they attack in groups, they may lose their mouths.
But Song Juncheng's men were not so smart. In front of them, their city lord had his arm chopped off, and they rushed forward to prepare for a group attack.
Xuan Tiancheng looked at it and looked at Zhang Qi, and they both saw the excitement in the other's eyes.
These people under my command have no status, and they attack the few first with the large number, so naturally they kill at will.
As soon as Xuan Tiancheng's figure moved, Thunder Flower took action immediately. The powerful sword flower flashed with thunder light, and under Xuan Tiancheng's command, it exploded directly in the crowd rushing towards him. With just one blow, a large number of people were killed on the spot. The scene was like The pause button was pressed, and there was silence.
This...these people who followed Song Juncheng were all purple-level powerhouses, many of whom were high-level. Why were they not as good as a chicken in front of Xuan Tiancheng? A chicken could struggle before dying, but these purple-level powerhouses couldn't even move. He didn't move, just lying "quietly" on the ground?
Zhang Qi was so terrifying, but Xuan Tiancheng was even more exaggerated. At this time, Song Juncheng was wondering what kind of monsters he had provoked.
He was shocked in his heart, but he was not idle under his hands. The wall of swords instantly turned into a gust of wind, and he stepped back sharply with the sword energy under his feet.
Song Juncheng's move was quite clever. He used the sword wall to turn into a strong wind to block Zhang Qi, while using the sword energy to retreat.
Zhang Qi smiled coldly, now that things have happened, will I let you run away again? With a flash of his eyes, Sheng Tianbu instantly turned into a bolt of lightning, so fast that it was almost teleporting. In an instant, he flashed behind Song Juncheng, and the bone dagger was quietly pressed against his throat.
Song Juncheng's face changed drastically, and the cold murderous aura coming from the bone dagger had penetrated into his skin. He was convinced that as long as he had any resistance, the bone dagger would penetrate deep into his throat like tofu.
"Be brave and release the city lord quickly." The remaining subordinates who were still alive shouted quickly. Of course, they only dared to speak out and did not dare to take action. But if they didn't even speak out, and Song Juncheng died, it would be difficult for them to pursue the case below. Escape to death.
"Noisy!" Xuan Tiancheng shouted coldly, and was about to take action when a cold light flashed beside him, and a huge iron arrow was like a life-threatening chain of Jiuyou, killing the man who just made the sound. Nailed on the wall, the arrow cluster was trembling, and the others were so frightened that they fell silent immediately.
Shang Ding slowly retracted his bow and arrow, but his face was full of smiles. This guy was the most talkative just now. Shang Ding wanted to kill him several times, but it was difficult for him to do it without Zhang Qi. Now even Xuantian Chengdu Of course he won't relent if he takes action.
"please stop."
At this moment, a man about the same age as Song Juncheng walked out of the crowd. He looked at Zhang Qi, bowed deeply and said: "Herald of Heavenly Cry, I am Song Yijian, who is still furiously fighting against the elders of the sect's outer sect. It was indeed the rudeness of my city lord just now." , the following is a crime, but he has broken his arm to apologize, and the rude people among our sect who came here have also been punished. For the sake of fellow Tianqi compatriots, please open one side of the net and beg for mercy. As for Mingguang The association belongs to Canyue, so what do you think of it?"
Zhang Qi ignored the speaker at all, just looked at the sky in the distance, and said to himself: "The world is unkind and treats all things as stupid dogs. It is really pitiful to not know that a disaster is coming..."
After a pause, his tone became extremely cold: "I am still the envoy of Heavenly Crying. I have a respected position and am transcendent from the world. Even if I am the red rank, I should be treated as the same rank. Song Juncheng is just a mere lord of a city. His position is not as good as that of the purple." In the realm of rank, if you collide with the envoy, you are already committing an offence, and this is disloyal."
"It is unjust to dominate people's property and take it for nothing. Although I am not a judge, I cannot tolerate you. At the elders' meeting, I should tell the truth."
Song Juncheng's face became more and more frightened as Zhang Qi muttered. It seemed that Zhang Qi was pronouncing his death sentence with every sentence. It was not until Zhang Qi's last sentence came out that he realized that Zhang Qi had the intention to kill him. He couldn't help but roar and retreat quickly.
Poof...
A city lord's head rolled to the ground like a cheap watermelon. Song Juncheng's head stared with a pair of confused eyes until he died. Until he landed, he couldn't believe that there was someone so blatantly attacking in Tianwei City. To kill himself, does he really not know that he is the superior Lord of Tianqi City?
The people in the City Lord's Mansion immediately screamed, looking at the murderer in front of them with incredulous expressions, but they didn't dare to move. He...actually killed the Lord of Tianqi City, as casually as killing a chicken.
This...is this still a human being? This is simply a killing god!
Seeing Xuan Tiancheng's coldly hesitant verdict, Shang Ding flashed the murderous giant arrow, and his heart was filled with despair. The city lord was dead, could they still live?
Song Yijian's old face twitched as he looked at it, then returned to normal, and even the tone of his speech became extremely respectful, "Dear Messenger of Heavenly Cry, Song Juncheng has offended your dignity and has been duly punished. I wonder if we can leave here. go?"
Zhang Qi looked at Song Yijian coldly. This old guy was quite smart. He wanted to protect Song Juncheng at first, but now that he was dead, he put the blame on him and tried to save his own life. This really made Zhang Qi Qi had no reason to kill him, so he responded calmly, "Well, leave one arm behind and leave on your own."
Everyone was shocked when they heard this. Song Yijian was quite cruel. As soon as Zhang Qi finished speaking, one of his hands fell to the ground with a bang. Then he walked down the mountain without looking back. Compared with his life, his arm was nothing. What, speaking of their level, this kind of punishment is not that heavy.
When the others saw that Song Yijian was the leader with a broken arm, they dropped their arms one by one and hurried down the mountain.
"It's so happy, so happy." Xuan Tiancheng shouted excitedly. He followed Zhang Qi all the way. He experienced countless life and death experiences during this period. From the time he entered the Paradise to the White Stage, he had been bullied, and all this The main culprit is the Mingguang Society. Now looking at the Mingguang Society in the city full of gunfire, a white-ranked man started to destroy this powerful force that has survived for tens of thousands of years with his own hands in just a few years. Everyone who hears this is excited.
But now, it is so powerful that the Lord of Tianqi City can kill chickens and dogs. Such heroic spirit has never been heard of by Tianqi.
Looking at everything in front of him, Zhang Qi didn't feel happy at all. For him, the destruction of the Mingguang Society was not an ending, but a beginning, a more bloody beginning.
"Alas!" Zhang Qi let out a long sigh and looked at the endless sky. The road away was even further away.
"Seventh brother, what's wrong? Aren't you happy that these beasts from the Mingguang Society were slaughtered?" Xuan Tiancheng asked when he saw this.
"Tiancheng, I'm not unhappy, but I have no reason to be happy either." Zhang Qi sighed and replied, "Today's Mingguang Society is just a stone blocking the road. As Can Yue and us grow, it is no longer worthy of the word opponent. , the elimination of it is more of a comfort to those friends who have been bullied.”
"But have you ever thought about the consequences of doing this?" Zhang Qi stared at Xuan Tiancheng and asked.
"What is it? We brothers never seem to consider the so-called consequences of a big fight. Why, Seventh Brother, now that his strength has greatly increased, he is timid in doing things. This is not like you!" Xuan Tiancheng said with a smile.
"Not bad!" Zhang Qiwei was startled. He didn't expect that Xuan Tiancheng was more open-minded than himself. It seemed that he really underestimated this guy.
"However, although the Mingguang Society is weak, it is still ranked among the nine sects and eighteen societies. The chain reaction caused by its destruction is definitely not small, and it even caused the entire Ranger Alliance to be reshuffled. This must be a battle far beyond this one. The bloody storm, and what I am worried about is whether this reshuffle will involve the waning moon, after all, this matter started because of me, the waning moon."
Xuan Tiancheng was stunned for a moment and said, "Probably not. The destruction of the Mingguang Society did not violate any of Tianqi's covenants. Besides, not all of the Nine Sects and Eighteen Society are our enemies. Besides, there are other alliances. I think it is just some small actions at most. With the strength revealed by Can Yue now, there are three red-level emperors to help, and they will not be angry, there is no such motive."
Xuan Tiancheng's words were quite satisfactory. Zhang Qiyi couldn't refute him for a while, so he could only sigh, "I hope so!"
Zhang Qi then told what he saw in the warehouse, and Xuan Tiancheng was shocked when he heard what he said. The big beast tide they had been guarding against turned out to be real, and it was not far away. Its intensity was the highest in history.
From the content and material of the letter, it can be roughly inferred that the time for the arrival of the big beast tide is half a year at the longest and three months at the shortest. For Tianqi, time is very tight.
Zhang Qi immediately made a decision. On the one hand, he asked Wang Tianwei to inform the Tianqi Elder Council as Chi Jie. Only Chi Jie's identity would make them believe that the matter was true.
On the other hand, he asked Can Yue's forces to quickly clean up the battlefield, move all supplies back to Can Yue, and hand over all surrendered personnel to the Wang Family Association. He himself led the relevant high-level personnel to return to Can Yue immediately to prepare for resisting the tide of big beasts.
Everyone rushed back to Cangyue without stopping, and immediately held a high-level meeting. This time, even Yu Wentie attended in person.
Without any preamble, Zhang Qi went straight to the topic as soon as he saw everyone gathered, informed him about the warning letter, gave an overview of their last trip to the evil forest, and focused on the situation on the fourth floor. gave a more detailed description, and also mentioned the mysterious fifth floor.
In order to let everyone understand the evil forest more intuitively, Zhang Qi explained and added his own analysis. Everyone started to commotion, and even Yu Wentie frowned.
The location of Waning Moon is in the northwest of Tianqi. From a location point of view, it is a remote area far away from the evil forest. From this perspective, Waning Moon is relatively safe, but the outbreak of the beast tide is not a human siege, but a hunting and killing operation. The extreme beasts It is aimed at the vitality of human beings, so no matter how far away it is, the tide of beasts is fair to Tiantian Qi.
Zangetsu has developed a lot in recent years, both militarily and economically, but this explosive growth is still a bit weak compared to those forces that have existed for a long time. Their defense power has been established after countless tests. got up, so Cangyue must strictly prepare for war.
What's more important is that Cangyue has always enjoyed the benefits brought by the first-level power, but now that he encounters the beast tide, the benefits will come out.
Because according to the Cry of Heaven Covenant, once encountering a tide of beasts, especially a tide of large beasts, all forces must unconditionally participate in resistance operations. As a first-level force, Canyue Town naturally has to be at the forefront, so they must form an expedition in advance. The army rushes to the front line to fight.
At the meeting, many people said that Zangyue was just a new force, and others didn't know how powerful it actually was, so they only needed to send out the people who destroyed the Mingguang Society, which would give an explanation to the Tianwei Alliance and preserve its strength.
In fact, it is not that Zhang Qi has not considered this idea. With his personality, he will not do anything if he can't do anything about this kind of thing. After all, for him, Canyue is his home, and the survival of other places is none of his business. But later If you think about it carefully, this idea is actually too one-sided.
What can be determined for this time is that the scale of the beast tide must be unprecedented. From his annihilation of the Mingguang Society, it can be seen that the backbone of these so-called major forces, except for the Red Order, is not as strong as the outside world reports. Once these people quickly lose ground, The residual power of the huge beast wave will directly impact Cangyue. With Cangyue's current strength, it will be difficult to compete. This is actually equivalent to the truth that the lips are dead and the teeth are cold.
Therefore, this time, Cangyue must go all out and try to extinguish the power of the big beast tide at the front line. At the very least, most of the beast tide must be consumed at the front line. In this way, Cangyue will have a better chance of saving.
Zhang Qi's analysis convinced everyone, so the next step was to discuss how to form this expeditionary force.
There is strength in numbers, and the collective wisdom is much more comprehensive than Zhang Qi always thinking about the problem alone. Especially this kind of all-out war must be carried out from multiple angles and in many directions.
The meeting lasted from the first day to the third day, with almost no breaks in between. Even meals were taken care of during the meeting. A rough plan was finally produced with the fastest efficiency.
The first is the issue of the reserve army. The large deployment of the expeditionary force will significantly reduce the defensive power of Cangyue. In order to prepare for the failure of the expeditionary force, Cangyue will still be able to fight. It is necessary to increase the expansion of the reserve army. Fortunately, the early recruitment plan It went smoothly, and there were enough troops. However, the number of mechas was limited, and the manufacturing department could only be operated around the clock.
Secondly, the guard tower also needs to be expanded. This thing plays the greatest role in defending the city. Although it is more expensive, after the Mingguang Society was destroyed, Zhang Qi still had some wealth in his hands. At this time, he must speed up the production regardless of success. , striving to add five more when the beast tide strikes.
The last step was to determine the size of the expeditionary force. After repeated calculations, it was determined that the size of the expeditionary force was 100,000 mecha warriors, composed of ten combat corps, and 300 deformed warriors, forming a special corps. Zhang Qi personally served as the general guard, and brought Xuan Tiancheng, Shang Ding or the strong men of Taiyi Sect set out, while Yu Wentie stayed behind to guard Cangyue.
