The side of the ancient abyss is not a smooth wall, but a steep and steep wall.
The enemy climbed up along these steep rocks. Of course, the soldiers in the deserted city could also use the props in the ropes to fight back based on the terrain.
This is what Huangtian Banner is doing now.
"Aren't you afraid of something happening if you put them down?"
Xu Yue looked down along the ropes on the wall and could see dirty blood, broken blades, broken armor, and even pieces of meat among the jagged rocks.
Obviously, they are all leftover from the battles in the past few days.
"The Huangtian Banner is the leader of the Eight Banners. If they can't complete their mission, the others can't do it either."
Chang Lao glanced at the slightly shaking rope, which was the Huangtian Banner soldiers in action below, and then continued to move forward slowly.
Xu Yue frowned and followed.
"Since the Battle of Emperor Mountain, Gu Yuan has not had such a change for five years. In other words, Huangcheng has been in truce for five years... five years is enough to make people lazy." Chang Lao said slowly as he walked. .
"So you let them go down to get used to the war again?" Xu Yue asked, looking at his back.
"Only by facing blood and death can soldiers stay awake and combat-ready."
Chang Lao did not deny it, nor did he shy away from the Huangcheng soldiers standing nearby on the city wall, and continued: "Furthermore, there must be a reason why the demon suddenly launched an attack three months ago. The main mission of Huangtian Banner this time is , just to find out the matter, but apart from the frequent activities of demons under the ancient abyss, nothing has been discovered yet. "
"How was the battle going?" Xu Yue asked again.
"The first batch of demons that climbed up have naturally been annihilated. Most of them were in the Three Void Realm, and a few were in the Tribulation Realm. They were led by a few Tianxuan Realm. The Huangye Banner and Huangjia Banner were attacked by a sneak attack, and they lost thousands of people. People... And after the Huangtian Banner fell, there were about a hundred casualties, but this kind of battle damage is acceptable."
After listening to Chang Lao's description, Xu Yue's heart gradually sank.
"So, three months ago, Huangcheng suddenly expropriated stones and wood from all ethnic groups on a large scale. In addition to accelerating the construction of altars, was it really to strengthen the city's defense? Also, I saw a large number of knights from the Huanggu Jiang family in the outer city. Others People from the giants of the Immortal Realm can also be seen everywhere, are they here for this too?”
"nature."
Chang Lao nodded, but then corrected him: "But don't misunderstand one thing. Those teleportation arrays were built voluntarily by various tribes, and the people from the major giants were also sent by the Immortal Alliance, and were not requested by our deserted city."
"That's it."
Xu Yue whispered, lost in thought.
After five years, the demon Yu Guyuan launched another attack on Huangcheng. This news was too shocking.
And, it was three months ago again.
This was the time when he and Mu Chuxuan were visiting the survivors of the Western Desert, and it was also the time when the murderers in the dark were most rampant in hunting down the strongest generation.
Earlier, he had always believed that the murderers were not monsters, but just scum within the fairyland, but now it seems that is not the case?
When the demons on Gu Yuan's side launched an attack, were they trying to cover and contain them?
"Thinking about the attack on the strongest generation?" Chang Lao in front spoke, interrupting Xu Yue's thoughts.
Xu Yue came back to his senses, shook his head, and said in a deep voice: "Well, but Chang Lao, I will resolve this matter with the Immortal Alliance as soon as possible. Please be sure to focus on the defense of the deserted city and don't worry about other things. "
"Of course you don't need to say this."
Chang Lao waved his hand. Their mission and responsibility in Huangcheng had always been to guard Gu Yuan. They were very clear and would not waver.
"But take a look at this thing. It just arrived today. It was passed down by Sang Wenlian, the leader of Qianlihe Sect in Beihai." Chang Lao took out a carp-shaped jade slip from his arms and handed it to Xu Yue.
"Could it be that?"
Xu Yue's eyes narrowed, he took the jade slip, squeezed it gently, then closed his eyes slightly, controlled the spiritual power to penetrate into it, and felt the message inside.
After a while, Xu Yue opened his eyes with an ugly expression.
The cause of Lingshao's death was indeed investigated.
After Mu Chuxuan exposed the Whisperers, the Immortal Alliance indeed stepped up protection for each of the strongest generations, making it extremely difficult for outsiders to get their hands on them.
However, a month ago, Lingqiao was suddenly asked out of the sect by an unidentified "friend" and was subsequently killed.
"Friend...who could it be? How could someone who Lingsha trusts so much that she would rather leave the strong man protecting her to meet her would commit such a murder?"
Xu Yue thought hard, lowered his head and followed Chang Lao silently, but Chang Lao did not turn around to ask Xu Yue what the content of the jade slip was, as if, as he said, Huangcheng was for external affairs and did not care about internal affairs.
"Pull up quickly!"
"Military doctor! Where is the military doctor! Come and heal him!"
After an unknown period of time, there were sudden roars from the front. When Xu Yue looked back, he found that he had arrived in front of a city tower. On the high steps, soldiers from the deserted city were running back and forth, quite busy.
A city tower is generally a lookout point built on a city wall. It is also a base for generals to command and for soldiers to rest and recuperate. This is no exception in the deserted city.
Chang Lao and Xu Yue walked up the stairs. Many soldiers saluted along the way, and their eyes stayed on Xu Yue for a while.
Finally, the two climbed up the tower and came to a bearded man wearing broken armor.
He is the general sitting here.
"Huang Long, look who's here."
Chang Lao chuckled, attracting the other party's attention.
"Master Chang."
Huanglong turned around and bowed. In fact, this was not his real name, but because he was in charge of the Huanglong Banner, he had always used this as his code name.
He followed the direction indicated by Chang Lao and looked at the smiling young man.
Then, he suddenly took action and punched him!
"Ding! It has been detected that the age difference with the current enemy is about 7 times. The host's cultivation level has increased by 7 levels. The current cultivation level..."
"Ding! It has been detected that there are shackles in this world, and the cultivation level cannot break through the fairyland! The host's cultivation level has increased by 4 realms, and the current cultivation level is: early stage of Tianxuan Realm!"
Boom!
There was a loud noise from the city gate. Xu Yue hurriedly put his arms in front of him, barely able to block Huang Long's iron fist. However, he was still directly suppressed by the powerful force. His legs bent and he almost fell to the ground.
Fortunately, this front barrier is as hard as a world. If it were outside, the bearing point under Xu Yue's feet would sink into a big pit, and the earth would crack!
All around, the Huangcheng soldiers looked indifferent. If Chang Lao hadn't been by Xu Yue's side, they would have followed their leader to attack Xu Yue.
"Boy, how come we haven't seen each other for a hundred years, but our cultivation is retreating instead of advancing?" Feeling the power below, Huanglong frowned and asked doubtfully.
"Aren't you impressed by your wisdom and martial arts, Brother Long?" Xu Yue's hands trembled slightly, and it was extremely difficult to hold the iron fist.
"Hahaha, my personality hasn't changed!"
Hearing this, Huanglong smiled boldly, and the fist that was holding Xu Yue suddenly loosened its strength, grabbed the other person, then held his hand and said: "Long time no see, Xu Yue!"
