Big Moon Ballad

Chapter 2490 The Strongest

"Is everything okay over at the Evernight Great Wall?"

Hearing Yun Zhongjun's malicious hint, Ying Xun could hardly hold back and asked worriedly behind Ying Baoyue.

He somewhat regretted bringing all 30,000 imperial guards back to Guiyang. He should have left at least 10,000 to help Li Meiniang guard Shanhaiguan.

However, as soon as he revealed this idea, he was strongly opposed by the officials around him, and an old minister even secretly hid his tiger talisman.

In the eyes of the former Qin veterans, since the Qin Dynasty had been divided and the Evernight Great Wall was only within the Northern Wei territory, it was the Northern Wei's job to guard the Great Wall. How could the precious combat power of the former Qin be given to the Northern Wei for nothing?

Even though Ying Xun objected on the grounds that the entire continent would suffer if the Great Wall was breached, the group of old ministers still firmly believed that since the Xirong people had failed to break in seven years ago, they would not be able to do so seven years later. His top priority was to lead his troops back to the Afang Palace as soon as possible to consolidate his throne.

Faced with fierce opposition from people around him, Ying Xun finally chose to compromise.

He had to admit that he had no confidence in his prestige in the Former Qin. The 30,000 imperial guards were extremely important to him and he could not afford any mistakes.

But now that Yun Zhongjun mentioned the crisis of the Eternal Night Great Wall, Ying Xun became afraid again.

Ying Xun knew that Ying Baoyue must be very worried about the situation at the Eternal Night Great Wall. After all, there were many people there who were very important to her.

However, Ying Baoyue's reaction was beyond Ying Xun's expectations.

"No matter whether the Great Wall can hold up or not, there is nothing we can do."

"I will not leave the Afang Palace now."

Facing Yun Zhongjun's hint, Ying Baoyue said this almost expressionlessly.

When she said this, her gaze stayed on Yun Zhongjun, and it seemed that she could only see this one enemy.

"The order I gave Mei Niang was to hold on to the end. I believe she can complete this mission."

Ying Xun looked at Ying Baoyue in astonishment, as if he was looking at a stranger, "No, Baoyue, how could you..."

He could hardly imagine that these words came from the mouth of Ying Baoyue, who had always been the most protective of his people.

Hold on...

This means that the defenders remaining at the Great Wall must fight to the death. Either the city is captured or the entire army is wiped out. Retreat is not allowed.

"Baoyue, how could you be so cruel?"

"heartless?"

Ying Baoyue looked back at Ying Xun and said calmly, "Mei Niang and I were both ready to fight to the death when we separated."

She is a human, not a god, and it is impossible for her to take care of both sides at the same time.

She and Li Mei Niang both knew this very well.

When Li Meiniang took on the task of guarding the Great Wall in Shanhaiguan City, she knew that no matter what happened, no one would come to rescue her.

Similarly, no matter what happened in Afang Palace, Li Meiniang would never leave the Eternal Night Great Wall to save her.

They each have a mission to accomplish, and they will fight to the death.

Looking at Ying Xun's incredulous eyes, Ying Baoyue didn't want to explain anything.

This is a tacit understanding between her and Li Mei Niang, and no one else needs to understand it.

"But the troops on the Great Wall side are really short..." Ying Xun found it difficult to say. After all, he was the one who transferred the troops away from the Great Wall. Now he was blaming Ying Baoyue for ignoring Li Meiniang. It was hypocritical.

"Xun'er, we can't turn the tide alone."

Ying Baoyue looked at him calmly and said, "The Great Wall is not the Great Wall of the Northern Wei Dynasty alone."

This is what makes her different from her master.

Whether it is her, Li Mei Niang, Lin Wangong, the rebel army, or Zhao Guang, they can indeed try their best for the safety of the entire continent, but all the responsibility cannot be placed on them.

"If other countries within the Great Wall do not take action, the Great Wall will eventually be undefendable."

Ying Baoyue said expressionlessly, "If it really comes to this, then let the wall collapse."

If other inland countries do not assist Northern Wei and Later Liao this time and just want to sit on the mountain and watch the fight between the two tigers, then there is nothing that can be done about the Western Rong people invading the Central Plains.

Yun Zhongjun narrowed his eyes and saw that Ying Baoyue's expression had changed. "You are different from your master. You are unexpectedly cruel," Yun Zhongjun looked at her with a smile, "Are you going to let the defenders of the Great Wall be wiped out?"

"If I can kill you here, then everything will make sense," Ying Baoyue clenched the two swords in his hands and pointed them at Yun Zhongjun's chest.

Only in this way can the sacrifices made in the past not have died in vain.

Ying Baoyue felt a sharp pain in his heart.

"Chunlan..."

Ying Baoyue spoke in a low voice.

That name loomed in her and Li Meiniang's hearts, and neither of them could let it go.

This is also why the two of them were determined to fight to the death.

"I don't know why you did these things, but today, I want to cut off the chain of tragedy here."

She couldn't allow this person to continue manipulating people's hearts behind their backs.

"Mr. Yunzhong, I'm going to kill you."

Ying Xun looked at Ying Baoyue's back and his scalp went numb.

His realm was not high enough, but he instinctively sensed the change in Ying Baoyue's aura.

The aura of Ying Baoyue was different from all the battles of Ying Baoyue that he had witnessed before.

This is a determination to kill gods if gods stand in the way and to kill Buddha if Buddha stands in the way.

The high-level practitioners present felt Ying Baoyue's determination more clearly. Yun Zhongjun looked at her expressionlessly, and the smile on his lips disappeared.

He glanced at Chun Yu Ye, who was lying on the ground with his eyes closed and surrendering, a trace of disgust appeared in his eyes, and then a dark light flashed, and the sword beside Chun Yu Ye fell into his hand.

Yun Zhongjun holds the sword!

Ji Jiashu's muscles tensed instantly, and the murderous intent on the podium suddenly became so thick that it was suffocating.

Not only Ying Baoyue, but Yun Zhongjun's aura also changed.

It was difficult for Ji Jiashu to describe the feeling that Yun Zhongjun gave him at this moment. He had already ascended to the heavenly level and had seen countless opponents, but the aura rising from Yun Zhongjun at this moment was actually frightening.

Ji Jiashu found it difficult to describe this feeling, as if all the malice in the world had been concentrated together, and this man had seen it all and crawled out of the cruelest darkness.

This man is a monster that crawled up from the deepest part of hell.

The flow of air seemed to be stopped by the thick murderous intent and blood.

"Then let's see if you have the ability."

Yun Zhongjun glanced at the Zen disciples who were trapped by the Mu family army and had lost their morale under the high platform, and said coldly, "Don't forget the Lianxin Gu you took before leaving. If you lose here today, not only will you not be able to walk out of this palace alive, but your entire family will also die, without a single person left."

When the Zen disciples who had been retreating heard these words, they were shocked and their eyes turned bloodshot.

"Oh no! They are going to counterattack!"

Ji Jiashu felt a chill in his heart. Yun Zhongjun actually used the families of the Zen disciples to threaten them, which meant that all these Zen disciples were assassins.

When people are faced with the prospect of certain death, they will unleash unimaginable potential.

As expected, the originally besieged Zen temple disciples let out a sharp roar and fought bravely with the Mu family army without fear of death.

The square, which had originally stabilized, fell into chaos again.

Yun Zhongjun looked at Ying Baoyue expressionlessly and swung his sword.

His sword made no sound.

The sword was extremely fast, and Ying Baoyue's reaction was also extremely fast, and he immediately drew his sword to block it.

However, it is like the darkest light in the world shining through the darkness.

Just hear a click.

The sword in Ying Baoyue's hand broke.
