Chapter 741: Battle in Southern Wulin
Lu Ping finally drank the tea.
He and the teahouse owner became more and more excited as they talked, and finally the owner simply stopped what he was doing and pulled him to sit down and chat.
"Shopkeeper, since you said you wanted to escape, where exactly are you going to escape to?"
The teahouse owner said, "Han Tianque started an uprising in the Western Miao area, so he will definitely go east in the future. The Miao Palace is in the north, so of course I can only go south."
Lu Ping thought for a moment and asked tentatively, "Since Miaojiang is about to fall into civil strife, why don't you just move to Southern Wulin?"
The teahouse owner looked at Lu Ping in surprise and said, "The customer doesn't know yet?"
"Do not know what is this?"
The teahouse owner had no choice but to say, "I heard that the Southern Wulin is now being invaded by the demon world. The army is approaching the border and no one is left alive. The people in the land are suffering!"
it is as expected……
Lu Ping's face darkened slightly, and he asked again: "Have those demon soldiers fought their way to Miaojiang?"
The teahouse owner shook his head: "Not yet. The people of Southern Wulin are not pushovers. They can always hold out for a while, but it's hard to say what will happen in the future."
"If that time really comes, the civil unrest in Miaojiang...even if it hasn't ended yet, it will have to end."
The truth that the lips and teeth are interdependent is not some profound truth.
Although the teahouse owner is not a wise man who can plan everything, he is able to run a teahouse in a market town and is knowledgeable about literature and the ways of the world.
After getting a general understanding of the situation in Miaojiang, Lu Ping left here and set out to return to Southern Wulin.
……
In Southern Wulin, the war is raging.
Fortunately, the situation was not as one-sided as in the original story.
Although the Shura Kingdom's army is indeed powerful, compared to the Central Plains in the "Golden Light" which has no soldiers or generals, the current Southern Martial Arts World is full of brave generals and elite soldiers.
The righteous men of the Shangtong Society, the alliance of the Five Mountains and Seven Sects, the large and small gangs, villas, independent people, knights in the martial arts world, and the group of soldiers who were broken up into small pieces with the demise of the Suzaku Dynasty, formed a rare united front when facing the invasion of the demonic soldiers.
After Lu Ping returned to Nanwulin, he immediately went to the public pavilion to understand the situation.
It turned out that after the seal on the demon world was lifted, the first day was relatively quiet.
However, since Emperor Liang Wuji posted the news on the public booth and notified the entire martial arts world, all sects and schools took corresponding measures at the first opportunity and entered a state of preparation for war.
The next day, when Lu Ping was still staying in the Buddhist country, dealing with Nian Tu Luo, Que Zhou and others.
Emperor Ghost led the army of the demon world, headed by seven vanguards, and divided the troops into four groups to invade Southern Wulin from the west, south, north, and southwest.
In just half a day, they used the spiritual world as their base and expanded outward by three hundred miles, causing great distress to the people.
But the demon army did not stop there, but continued to march outward.
After another half a day, the demon army gradually came into conflict with the major forces in the martial arts world.
This time, without Tian Hengjun as a guide, the Demon World knew nothing about the masters, terrain, and forces of the Southern Wulin. If they rashly started a war, they would naturally be restricted everywhere.
To the north, the demon soldiers faced Yu Jian Villa.
Coincidentally, there is an immortal man named Yin Zhong who has lived for five hundred years in Yu Jian Villa.
Yin Zhong practiced both magic and martial arts. If his strength were placed in the "Golden Light", he would be at least a "Demon King level". The mere Seven Vanguards were no match for him.
The two sides fought for less than ten rounds when Yin Zhong killed an enemy general in the battle and then commanded the guards of Yu Jian Villa to charge forward.
Without their commander, the demon soldiers were routed and retreated in disarray. Yin Zhong wanted to pursue the enemy, but considering the difference in the number of soldiers on both sides, he had to give up the idea and temporarily set up a defense line in the north.
To the west, the demon soldiers faced off against the heroes of the Shangtong Society.
The two sides used the twenty-li area around Tianyun Mountain as the battlefield, deploying their troops and displaying their tactics.
Xuan Zhixuan is one of the Nine Strategies. His military ability and personal strength are first-class in the martial arts world.
He led the team to fight against the demon soldiers, and the opponent was only one of the seven vanguards, so it was naturally easy for him to defeat him.
However, the Demon World had the most soldiers attacking westwards, and the strength of the Shangtonghui heroes was also uneven, so Xuan Zhixuan was unable to achieve similar results as Yin Zhong.
Both sides only lost soldiers, but no generals.
The demon soldiers headed southwest from the spirit world and encountered Duan Lang's Julang Gang.
Duan Lang's martial arts and swordsmanship are already extraordinary, and with the Fire Scale Sword in his hand, the heat of the sword amplifies each other, and even Chi Yantian, one of the Three Lords, cannot match it.
Coincidentally, the opponent he met was Yan Taotie, the apprentice of Chi Yantian.
The devilish fire of Yan Taotie is of extremely high temperature, and he has few rivals in the devil world. However, when he meets Duan Lang who possesses the Fire Scale Sword, he is nothing but a dwarf compared to a giant.
You know, the Fire Kirin Sword has the scales of the mythical beast Fire Kirin, and it also carries the will of the Fire Kirin.
The two fought for fifty rounds, and finally Duan Lang won with absolute advantage and captured the enemy's leader.
After winning the duel, Duan Lang still felt it was not enough, so he led his gang to counterattack the spirit world.
The Julang Gang has been developing in the Suzaku Dynasty for six years. It has a vast territory and a large number of members. Even though its scale is not as large as the once-dominant Tianxiahui, it is still about one-third of the size.
In addition, Duan Lang had defeated Yan Taotie at this time, and the morale of the gang members was high, so he actually pushed the battle line back thirty miles.
Then, the hot-headed man finally calmed down.
At that time, Duan Lang didn't know the battle situation on other fronts in Southern Wulin. He realized that it would be extremely dangerous for him to advance alone without any backup.
So after thinking for a long time, he withdrew the front line again, switched from offense to defense, and waited for subsequent changes.
The last route of the demon soldiers is to move southward.
In this direction, they encountered Yihua Palace.
Yihua Palace actually did not participate in the alliance of Southern Wulin heroes against the army of the demon world, and they didn’t even know what was happening outside.
It was just that the place called Xiu Yu Valley happened to appear on the marching route of the demon soldiers.
So Yihua Palace welcomed the army of the demon world without knowing anything.
Compared with Yu Jian Villa, Shang Tong Hui and Ju Lang Gang, Yi Hua Palace has fewer disciples and their skills are relatively weak. The two palace masters, Yao Yue and Lian Xing, do not have any military talents.
But these two sisters were both powerful warriors who had practiced Mingyu Gong to the ninth level. Their strength was no less than that of the Three Venerables. In addition, the terrain of Xiuyu Valley was dangerous and easy to defend but difficult to attack. Therefore, the army that marched towards this side eventually returned in defeat.
What the Southern Wulin heroes talked about with great relish was that since Yao Yue and Lian Xing personally fought in this battle, there were no casualties among the Yihua Palace disciples.
When the heroes of the martial arts world received the news and rushed to Xiu Yu Valley to provide support, they found that the people of Yihua Palace were already preparing a celebration banquet.
Yao Yue was even ruthless and drove away all the heroes who came to support.
Seeing this, the heroes could only helplessly explain the news of the invasion of the demon world to her, but they only received an unexpected but reasonable response -
"If you mess with Yihua Palace, the devil world has a way to kill you!"
