"Da da da, da da da..."
On the official road, the sound of horse hooves came galloping from far to near.
When passing by the tea stall, the man on the horse turned his head to look this way curiously, but then turned back again. The speed of the horse under his crotch seemed to be a little faster.
It was obvious that although he didn't know what was going on in the tea stall, he felt the chilling and tense atmosphere.
Road dust rose, and the horse quickly disappeared at the end of the official road.
It was only then that Lu Hongji said softly with a complicated expression:
"Brother Xianping, it seems that I misunderstood you."
"Brother, I was anxious and suspicious for a while. I hope you won't blame me..."
After only a few dozen breaths of time, Lu Hongji succumbed once again.
"Master Lu..."
On the other side, Chu Xianping was not aggressive, nor did he say anything more on this topic. He just raised his eyes and asked:
"Now that Du Chang's identity has been exposed, the Dog Army will no longer be under your control that day."
"Now Ningshu's 300,000 reinforcements are rushing to Fengyuan. They will complete the outflanking of the army in two days."
"Can your men make it in time?"
"..."
Looking at Lu Hongji with a smile, Chu Xianping's tone was very relaxed.
However, the former fell into silence.
According to his previous plan, Du Chang would lead the Tengu army into an ambush in Falling Star Valley, burying the entire army while delaying it for a few more days.
But now Du Chang's identity is exposed, and the Tengu Army is taken over by Yang Liushi.
The latter did not delay the fighter plane, but continued to advance westward to Fengyuan according to the original strategy. It was estimated that they would reach the garrison of 800,000 troops tonight.
In such a short time, Kui Long's men sent by Lu Hongji were naturally too late to arrive.
"Well, to be honest with Brother Xianping, it will take them at least four or five days."
Lu Hongji sighed softly, his helplessness did not seem to be fake.
"Four or five days?"
Chu Xianping smiled: "Master Lu, do you think the army can last four days without defeat?"
"this......"
His tone was stagnant, and Lu Hongji was obviously unsure.
Although there are 800,000 people, the collapse only happens in an instant, so no one knows how long the already demoralized Ganhui army can last.
But as of now, there isn't much he can do.
unless......
"Master Lu, my people are near Fengyuan City right now."
He picked up the teapot and poured another bowl of tea. Chu Xianping said slowly in Lu Hongji's surprised eyes: "Although there are not many, there are four second-grade tea and seven or eight third-grade tea."
"How's it going? Do you need my help?"
"..."
Four second-grade ones, seven or eight third-grade ones.
His eyes widened slightly, Lu Hongji didn't expect that Chu Xianping would also arrange people near Fengyuan.
What were these people planning to do?
Deal with Wei Changtian?
Or Xu Suisui and Qin Zhengqiu?
Lu Hongji didn't know, but he understood that since Chu Xianping said so, these people would definitely be able to reach the army camp in a very short time.
And with the help of this group of third-level masters, the 800,000-strong army will most likely be able to hold on until their own people arrive...
"Brother Xianping..."
There is no good thing in the world. Lu Hongji didn't have much surprise on his expression at this time. He just looked at Chu Xianping and asked silently:
"what do you want?"
"Is this...Master Lu, I want your elder token."
Chu Xianping's smile remained the same and his tone was calm, but what he said shocked Lu Hongji for a moment.
"you!"
He subconsciously shouted a word, and immediately turned to look at the few Forbidden Army masters standing not far away.
"Zheng!"
Although there was shock in his eyes, he did not hesitate. With a clear sword roar, the Emperor's Sword at his waist was suddenly unsheathed in the next second.
The shining golden Emperor's Sword carried the might of the second rank at its peak, and the invisible sword energy rose from the ground instantly like a wind blade, passing over the necks of several Forbidden Army masters in the blink of an eye.
"Plop! Plop!"
Blood spurted into the air, and the head staggered down, hitting the ground with a splash of blood and dust. There was still a strong sense of disbelief in the widened eyes.
There is no doubt that these Forbidden Army masters who escorted Lu Hongji all the way never expected that they would die at the hands of the former.
They don't know what they did wrong, and they even don't understand what the "Elder Token" means at all.
But this does not prevent the cautious Lu Hongji from being murderous just because of these four words.
Even though these personal guards had been following him for several years, at that moment, he showed no signs of weakness or hesitation.
Your heart is like a tiger's, most ruthless.
Perhaps being an emperor must be so decisive and ruthless.
"Brother Xianping..."
Holding the Emperor's Sword in hand, Lu Hongji glanced at Chu Xianping, who was sitting motionless, and then his eyes fell on the "tea stall owner".
His meaning was obvious, but Chu Xianping was unmoved at all and just waved his hand at the man who was surrounded by a second-grade aura.
"Go, walk farther."
"..."
"Yes, sir."
Slowly gathering his momentum, the man glanced at Lu Hongji warily, then slightly cupped his hands at Chu Xianping and retreated a few feet away.
After he retreated, Chu Xianping said to Lu Hongji with a half-smile but not a smile:
"Master Lu, there is no need to be so nervous."
"Others don't know what the Elder Token is, so what can they do if they hear it? Why kill people."
"How about it? Do you agree to what I just said?"
"..."
The breeze mixed with the smell of blood blew by. Looking at the calm and composed Chu Xianping, Lu Hongji felt a trace of fear in his heart for no reason.
It's not the fear caused by the gap in strength, but the feeling of powerlessness of being manipulated.
It was as if Chu Xianping's words and deeds were carefully planned, and everything was under his control and carried out without missing a beat.
Even, this includes myself...
His throat moved slightly. At this moment, for the first time, Lu Hongji felt that the man in front of him was so terrifying.
However, he did not show this fear, but slowly sheathed the Emperor's Sword, took a deep breath and said:
"Mr. Chu, I think you should know how valuable the Elder Token is."
"There is no way I can agree to this."
"..."
From "Brother Xianping" to "Mr. Chu", Lu Hongji's change of title to Chu Xianping undoubtedly explains something.
The latter's expression was still so calm after hearing his answer, which made it clear that he had known this for a long time.
"That's right. This small favor is really nothing. If you really agree, it will seem like I am taking advantage."
"Master Lu, what if I add another condition?"
"Um?"
Lu Hongji's eyes narrowed slightly and his concentration was very tense: "Mr. Chu, I don't know what can be worth an elder's token."
"Haha, the world is so big, of course there are some."
"And you must be very interested in this thing, Captain Lu..."
Chu Xianping smiled, and then said slowly in Lu Hongji's extremely shocked eyes:
"That's the way to break the inner demon of the Moon Sword."
