Ancient God Prison - C249
Not even a moment after the sound of the drum rang out, the twenty great army suddenly began to retreat one by one. Previously, their morale was high as they once again returned to the camp, and they were filled with disdain towards Heavenly Demon Sect’s side. At this moment, he was completely dejected and retreated in a sorry state.
Even those fifty thousand golem soldiers who were empty-handed in their provocation paid no heed to them. Furthermore, it seemed that they were not at the opposite camp and were still guarding the area. They immediately retreated. It seemed that they were afraid that their speed wouldn’t be fast, and many of their heavy supplies would be forcefully left behind.
“Strange, what is Yue doing?” Yi Yuan was completely confused. Despite fighting for decades, this was the first time he had seen such a strange thing. The anger in his heart was still the same. However, he could not understand what Yuelinghuan actually wanted to do.
Provoke our troops to attack? It seemed like a fantasy story. There were changes behind him, so it was unlikely for him to do the same. Frost City was on a small island with an area of two hundred and fifty thousand kilometers. Decades of wars had taken up two commanderies close to the coast. The only enemies around were Yun Cun and Heavenly Demon Sect.
Moreover, with the support of Snow Wind City and Xiongkui and the others, there were practically no worries for the future.
“General, could it be that something has happened to the Frost City, or did the two cities, Cloud Blaze, tear up the alliance?” Li Qian was also curious, the moment he said that, he shook his head. If these two cities wanted to join their alliance, they wouldn’t have chosen the three cities’ fleet. They wouldn’t have joined hands to hunt under the sea of clouds.
He looked back, and saw that the Cities soldiers had scattered, the more than two hundred thousand soldiers and horses who had just arrived in the Spirit Firmament City were also retreating. Compared to the Frost City, it was even more panicky. After a few miles, they split into several groups and fled towards the distance in a crazed manner. It was as if he wanted nothing more than to grow two more legs under his feet. There were even incidents of war and strife, and at some narrow crossroads, everyone was trampling on each other.
Li Qian could not help but be even more suspicious, as he knew that something must have happened, and the impact must be huge.
And what exactly had caused Yuelinghuan and the Floating Frost Cities to become so terrified?
The Heavenly Demon Sect’s secret guard system was personally set up by Qin Wuya, and was known for being well-informed and accurate. Why was he so useless this time? Even this person from the Floating City of The World had already found out. They were still in the dark, however. Yi Yuan was also looking at his hands in a daze. When had he cultivated his killing intent to such an extent?
As soon as they had the will to do battle, they immediately retreated. Although he was a notable general, he didn’t seem to have reached the level where he would make others fear him.
At this moment, he wanted to give chase, but suspected that there was something deceptive within. Just as he was lost in thought, he suddenly saw an Emperor’s light flying towards him from afar.
“A message talisman?”
Yi Yuan looked up and saw a Soul Glyphs in the sky. They couldn’t help but be startled. When did their Heavenly Demon Sect become so generous?
The Red Eagles that were not cheap but could be used repeatedly instead, although they were many times faster, every single one of them was equivalent to the price of a set of Fifth Rank and Beast Crystal?
Feeling that something was off, Yi Yuan could not wait and immediately grabbed the talisman with his big hand.
Then, his expression was one of extreme brilliance, sometimes overjoyed, sometimes incredulous.
Li Qian could not wait any longer and anxiously asked: “General, what exactly is happening at Monarch that we need to use the Flying Speed Talisman to send a message?”
Only now did Yi Yuan’s face return to normal. His hands trembled slightly as he handed the Message Symbol in his hands over to Li Qian.
“It’s Qin Lan who sent the news. He said that he had heard a rumor today. A few days ago, my Monarch found a Beast Tomb under the sea of clouds. With the help of the eight hundred yuan crossbow attack and the power of the Beast Tide, almost all of the four thousand Cloud Ship in the three cities of Ice and Snow were eliminated. In the end, only a hundred or so Cloud Ship remained to escape. It is said that at that time, the disciples of the Lingyun Sect were also present.
After he finished speaking, Yi Yuan’s expression became slightly hesitant as he said, “I heard that official news hasn’t arrived yet. The news came from the s that had luckily escaped death. “General Li, are you trustworthy?”
Li Qian was also absent-minded? A Beast Tomb? Even if it’s the smallest scale, it’s probably worth more than eight million Fourth Rank Beast Crystal! It was almost ten times more than the total income of his Heavenly Demon Sect under the sea of clouds in the past!
Furthermore, the four thousand Cloud Ship s that were once overbearing and overweeningly arrogant had all been destroyed under the sea of clouds. One million and four hundred thousand elite soldiers, annihilated all of them just like that?
How was the first thought in his mind possible? Then, he thought that if the retreat had not occurred with the Frost City, given Yuelinghuan’s arrogance, how could she have ended up in such a state of panic?
For a moment, all sorts of thoughts raced through his mind. Finally, Li Qian took a deep breath and said: “If it was anyone else, I wouldn’t believe it. But if it was a Monarch. But there is a small possibility! ”
“Monarch? I believe it too! Therefore, the sky must change! ”
Yi Yuan raised his head to look at the sky, his face stiff as if it was cast from iron. Within his eyes, it was as if lava was erupting from a volcano.
“With a child like that in Monarch, even if you die, you should at least be happy for Jiuquan! After succession for a few months, my Heavenly Demon Sect will return to its former glory. The Monarch, will not disgrace your father! ”
Two streams of tears suddenly flowed down from the corners of Yi Yuan’s eyes. Yi Yuan hurriedly turned his head as he activated the Genuine Qi, causing the tears to instantly evaporate. Then he raised his head and laughed loudly again. He suddenly held the giant axe in his hand and pointed it forward.
“Monarch is a gifted genius, my Heavenly Demon Sect will definitely return to its former state as well, and unify the Heavenly Dragon Empire! Before he returns, you and I will first take care of this seven hundred thousand strong army from the Frost City, as a gift in advance! ”
Different from before, this time, he no longer had the will to die tragically, but similarly, he was full of fighting spirit.
The veins on Yi Yuan’s arms were popping up. He had accumulated a belly full of anger earlier and needed to vent it out.
Li Qian’s expression froze for a moment, and then he lost control of his laughter: “Since General has this intention, then Li Qian will risk his life to accompany Master. But the most important thing to do now is to quickly send someone to the Illusory Dragon County and contact our old sect. ”
“Old?” I also have the same intention, it seems like I have let them off easy! ”
A sneer also emerged on Yi Yuan’s face. When Heavenly Demon Sect was at its most powerful, it was originally five countries. This Illusory Dragon County was one of them as well, and it was forcibly snatched from the Frost City. After that, when Qin Wuya disappeared, the entire county fell back into his control of Frost City.
Half of the reason was because the Sect Master of The Celestial Demon Sect had retreated. More than half of the reason was because all the Cities in Illusory Dragon County went overboard.
At this moment, they did not know that the three city leaders who had been famous for a long time were not their own Monarch’s match either. Not only did they not get anything from the Cloud Flawless Hunt, they had even lost all their Cloud Ship. Would he regret how decisive the betrayal was?
The current him especially wanted to see the expressions of those who knew their place. And he also knew that this generation, was just worrying about not having any way to turn over to Heavenly Demon Sect.
Previously, when the West Heaven City and the Spirit Heaven City rebelled, he was both annoyed and helpless. At this moment, it was to let Yuelinghuan, that vertical beam, know the taste of being an enemy in both the belly and back!
On the Spirit Island, Qin Lie’s location had also changed. Knowing that Qiao Han might have big business to talk about, Yue Yang decided to give it a try. Qin Lie then straightforwardly moved from the dock to the island’s inner hall.
As for Lin Ji, he was blocked outside the door. Qin Lie already expected that this person would come here for a reason, so he was too lazy to call him over. He was too lazy to waste any time on him.
“In other words, your Artifact Refining Sect wants to take over half a million Fourth Rank Beast Crystal s worth of weapons and orders from me every year? Do we need to participate in the matters of the Yin Dragon Gorge? Then what benefits does my Heavenly Demon Sect have? ”
Qin Lie immediately followed, as his tone changed once again. He said in a slightly strange manner, “You guys have quite the confidence in Gu. It has to be said that in the past, the annual income of my Heavenly Demon Sect, based on the Fourth Rank Beast Crystal, was only about three hundred thousand. Five hundred thousand a year. What a huge business. ”
“That was in the past, but the revival of the Spirit Wave is just around the corner. My Artifact Refining Sect is completely confident in the Monarch and my Heavenly Demon Sect! ”
However, Qiao Han secretly muttered in his heart, if not mentioned about the expansion of Heavenly Demon Sect, his military might would increase by a fold next year. Even in your bag, fifty to sixty million is enough to make people envious. Even if he didn’t earn anything from now on, it could still last for decades. It was truly a country whose wealth was as great as a kingdom’s. Even if it was the entire sect, the wealth stored within the sect was only comparable to this.
However, he couldn’t say it out loud.
“As for the benefits, there are also five Nirvana Realm cultivators and three Yang Returning Profound Arts Master who accompanied me to Heavenly Demon Sect to assist your Highness! My sect doesn’t participate in secular battles, but if any other sects make a move against Heavenly Demon Sect. These people can be deployed by His Highness! ”
Qin Lie pursed his lips, feeling disdain in his heart. Just these eight people, could it be that they want to take away this 500,000 level business? In the next moment, Qiao Han continued, “Naturally, our sect will also take his Highness’s place. Within our capabilities, we will resist against experts below the Fragmentation Realm!”
Qin Lie finally relaxed, and became somewhat moved, but he continued to be curious: “I’m only curious about your noble sect, so I’m not afraid of Lingyun Sect making me angry? This Heavenly Dragon Empire sects, might not be willing to see your Artifact Refining Sect, and cooperate with my Heavenly Demon Sect. ”
Qiao Han’s expression changed, it was obvious that he knew the consequences of this agreement. But right after, another chuckle, and a face full of determination …. Qin Lie instantly understood, that the Dan Quan Zong disciples relied on pill refining to cultivate, and the Artifact Refining Sect s were also the same.
It was a very simple principle. The more Spiritual Artifact s refined by Artifact Refining Sect, the more disciples would be nurtured.
And the number of Practitioner Weapon Spiritual Artifact that Heavenly Dragon Empire forges and refines each year is limited. A large portion of it was divided among the sects. It did not seem like Dan Quan Zong. Instead, the various sects were requesting for Pill s.
With the revival of the spirit tide, the need to nurture disciples became even more urgent.
This concerned the future of the sect. Not only was it possible to suppress their Lingyun Sect, it was also possible to do so.
However, Qin Lie still hesitated, forging weapons, how could it be held in the hands of an outsider?
After pondering for a moment, Qin Lie had an idea, and laughed: “For the five hundred thousand Beast Crystal s, I do not need their Heavenly Demon Sect for now. How about three hundred thousand a year for the first five years? For my Heavenly Demon Sect, please nurture another sixty fourth stage Spirit Forgers. Also, please design and re-design the armoured weapons for my Heavenly Demon Sect. Relying on the Blood Cloud Cavalry of a Lesser Four Spiritual Artifact. Once it’s completed, I, Qin Lie will personally place five thousand sets of orders. ”
Qiao Han immediately hissed and sucked in a breath of cold air. Reduced to three hundred thousand and nurturing sixty fourth rank spirit forgers was already breaking the bottom line in his heart. Inwardly, he was slightly displeased. This young demonic king truly had a good plan.
But in the end, when they heard the promise of five thousand set of Stage Four Quasi-Spiritual Artifact … In his heart, Qiao Han was slightly shocked.
This was different from the Blood Cloud Armor that was already half crippled, but it was a true Lesser Four Spiritual Artifact. Based on the market price of Spiritual Artifact s of the fourth step, it was equivalent to three hundred of them. Adding the cost of the design, this deal would cost at least two million yuan.
Frowning, Qiao Han felt indecisive. He then saw Qin Feng, reporting to his again when he went upstairs.
“Monarch! Profound water, Yun Lan, Ren Chuan, and Fierce Sun’s Mayor were also waiting downstairs. He said that he had matters to attend to and wants to meet the Monarch! ”
Qin Lie blinked his eyes, puzzled. Among the several dozen city lords who had followed him into the sea of clouds, these four Mayor s were the ones with the most cunning minds.
However, he had already spoken with these people earlier on, and he had already given them rewards as well. He didn’t know why these people were looking for him at this moment.
Seeing Qin Feng’s expression, it was obvious that he wanted to say something but hesitated. Qin Lie once again used the Spiritual Sense to look down, and scattered towards the bottom of the building. After a while, he already knew what had happened.
Lin Ji was not the only one down there, it seemed like the envoys from the Flame Sea City and the Cloud Floor City had arrived as well.
“In the end, we still have to fight. What’s the use of those fellows seeing them? You just have to kick them out. ”
Qin Feng frowned: “Qin Feng also has the same intentions, but these people all seem to have other reasons.” Then, without saying a word, he placed the three golden name scrolls in front of Qin Lie.
Qin Lie picked it up and flipped it, then burst out laughing. Good heavens! Ling Mansion Sect and two great families, what great origins. The three cities, Raging Flames of the Cloud Wave City, were just as he had guessed. They all had the support of their sects.
The chess piece lost miserably, was he prepared to go on the battlefield bare-handed?
It was just that he had forcefully expelled the Heavenly Demon Sect from the two sects, and even the Heavenly Fox Xue Family s. The elite disciples were all killed by him. Why would they be afraid? These three forces’ Ten Ancient Sects were obviously inferior to the three forces’?
It was one thing if they didn’t interfere directly, but if he was to discover the traces of the three forces interfering in this matter, he would definitely teach them a lesson.
He also had a backer now, although Ling Xuzi wanted him to be self-reliant. However, if they really met with a situation that they couldn’t handle, they didn’t believe that Life Dao would just stand by and watch without doing anything.
Qin Lie carelessly tossed it away. His eyes first narrowed, but then he said with an indifferent expression: “Let them come up and talk, it’s good to meet them, and see what exactly they’re trying to do.”
The one leading the Frost City was still that Lin Ji. As for the envoys from the other two cities, they were all unfamiliar faces. It was obvious that they were extremely sensible and humble, and each of them only brought one or two deputies with them.
