I am Master Maoshan

Chapter 2059 The imperial commander’s personal expedition
Sima Zhu took a deep breath, tried to calm himself down, and continued to persuade: "The frontline affairs can be handed over to General Wu Yi. He has rich experience in leading troops and is capable of dealing with any emergency. And you, Your Majesty, you are the new Skyfire Divine King, with a noble status. If you rashly go to the frontline, you will definitely become the primary target of the hostile forces. This is not only your personal safety, but also the safety of the entire Divine King Palace!"

Liu Jun's face became increasingly gloomy. He waved his hand suddenly, interrupting Sima Zhu's words: "I have made up my mind, no need to say more! General Wu Yi will stay to guard the Palace of the Divine King, and the affairs here will be left to you to handle. I will personally lead the troops to the battle, and will never let Master's Wife make any mistakes!"

Sima Zhu frowned even more tightly, then took a step forward, speaking with a bit of urgency in his voice: "Your Majesty, if you leave the Palace of the Divine King, this place will be leaderless! The Palace of the Divine King is the core of the Extreme Fire Temple. Once you are gone, those forces that covet the throne will definitely take the opportunity to cause chaos. At that time, with internal and external troubles, how should we deal with it?"

Liu Jun's rage finally erupted, and he slammed the table so hard that the teacups on the table jumped up. "Can't you find someone else to take over for a while? Can the Palace of the Gods really not function without me? My Master's Wife has been so kind to me, I can't just watch her fall into danger!"

At this moment, a clear and firm voice came from outside the hall, breaking the silence.

"Yes, you can go, but you have to ensure your own safety. No matter what the situation, saving your life is the most important thing." The voice was as clear as a spring.

As the voice fell, a slender and elegant figure slowly walked into the temple. Her steps were light and firm, as if every step was stepping on everyone's heart. Her appearance immediately attracted everyone's attention.

"Greetings to Her Highness the Saint." Sima Zhu and others bowed in unison after seeing who was coming.

Saint Yan Li, her name is well-known in the Divine King City. Not only does she have unparalleled beauty, but she also has outstanding wisdom and leadership.

Liu Jun showed a happy expression, and a glimmer of hope flashed in his eyes. If Yan Li was willing to help take charge of the rear, then this matter would be perfect, and Sima Zhu would not say anything more.

"Wait for you to come back." Yanli continued, his voice calm and powerful.

Sima Zhu frowned, but didn't say anything. After all, when the chief steward and the old God King were not around, Saint Yan Li also took charge of the overall situation in the God King Palace, and she handled everything very well. He had no doubts about her ability.

"Thank you," Liu Jun said, and strode out.

The Extreme Fire Army and the Fiery Fire Army had assembled half an hour ago, waiting for him to appear. The soldiers of the two armies lined up neatly, solemn and majestic, like two volcanoes about to erupt, ready to go. The air was filled with tension, as if even the wind had stopped flowing, just waiting for that moment to come.

Liu Jun was wearing a dark red armor. He didn't know what the armor was called. He only knew that it was given to him by Sima Zhu, who said it was worn by the old God King.

The surface of the armor is engraved with ancient and mysterious runes, and each pattern seems to be telling of the past glory and honor. After wearing the armor, it cannot be said to be as light as a feather, but it is almost the same. It is very light, but it feels heavy when touched by hand. No one knows what material it is made of. Liu Jun can feel the power contained in the armor, as if there is an invisible force supporting him, which makes him more confident.

Wearing this set of armor, Liu Jun looked quite authentic. His figure looked even more upright against the background of the armor, as if he was a true god of war, about to lead his army on a journey.

"Let's go." Liu Jun glanced at the soldiers of the Jihuo Army and the Liehuo Army and spoke.

The armor of the Extreme Fire Army was fiery red, while that of the Fiery Fire Army was maroon. The two armies marched towards the south like two fire dragons. Their steps were in unison, like an unstoppable torrent that was about to sweep away everything.

Liu Jun walked at the front of the team, his eyes fixed on the front, as if he had seen the dawn of victory. He knew that this battle would be extremely difficult, and he might even die there, but he had no way out.

As the team continued to advance, the sky gradually became gloomy, as if in silence for the upcoming battle.

At this time, the war on the front line had become extremely tense, and all the troops on the front line of the Skyfire Divine Realm were trapped in the largest city on the border - Nanjiang City.

Nanjiang City is not only a strategic location, but also the last line of defense of the entire Tianhuo Divine Realm. Once it is lost, the enemy will march straight into the heart of the Divine Realm. The atmosphere in the city is extremely tense, and the air is filled with smoke and anxiety, as if even breathing has become heavy.

In the city of Nanjiang, people were in a panic. Soldiers hurriedly shuttled through the streets, carrying supplies and strengthening the city defenses. The people hid in their homes, closing their doors and windows, fearing that war would suddenly break out.

In a courtyard in the City Lord's Mansion, the atmosphere was even more solemn. The courtyard was filled with generals in armor, their faces filled with anxiety and uneasiness, their eyes revealing their worries about the future.

"How is it? Has the steward woken up?" General Nie Yun of Zhennan grabbed the arm of the doctor who had just walked out of the house and asked anxiously.

There was a tremor in his voice, and it was obvious that he was extremely concerned about the safety of the chief steward. Nie Yun's grip was very strong, and the doctor was grimacing and almost cried out in pain. "General, please let go first, you are about to break the doctor's arm." Chu Liuying, the military advisor of the Zhenbei Army, hurried forward and pulled Nie Yun's hand away.

The doctor finally breathed a sigh of relief. He felt vaguely that his arm was about to break. He rubbed his arm, which was numb from being pinched, and smiled bitterly. He then said, "The butler has not yet woken up. The injury is too severe. We must find a way to invite a great medical saint to come and take a look as soon as possible."

Hearing this, Nie Yun frowned and his face became even gloomier. He knew that the butler's injury was serious and if he could not be treated in time, his life would be in danger.

The chief steward is the spiritual pillar of the entire Skyfire Divine Realm and is currently the strongest existence here. Her safety is directly related to the direction of the entire battle.

"The Great Medical Saint... The Great Medical Saint..." Nie Yun muttered to himself, thinking quickly about possible solutions in his mind.

However, great medical saints are extremely rare in the Heavenly Fire Divine Realm, and each of them is elusive. How easy is it to invite one in a short period of time? And there is another most critical point, that is, Nanjiang City has been surrounded, and not even a fly can fly in or out. Even if a great medical saint is found, how can he be sent in?
At this moment, Chu Liuying suddenly said, "General, perhaps we can try to contact several great medical saints in the Skyfire Divine Realm. Although their whereabouts are elusive, if we can use the intelligence network in the Divine Realm, we may be able to find the trace of one of them."

Nie Yun nodded, a glimmer of hope flashed in his eyes, and decided to find the body first, no matter how it was sent in. He immediately ordered to mobilize all available resources to find the whereabouts of the Great Medical Saint. At the same time, he also ordered the doctors in the city to do their best to stabilize the injury of the chief steward and buy time.

The generals in the courtyard took action one after another and left. The entire Nanjiang City seemed to be injected with new vitality. Although the war on the front line was still tense, at least they had a clear goal - to save the chief steward and stabilize the morale of the army.

However, time waits for no one. The enemy's offensive is getting more and more fierce, and the defense line of Nanjiang City is in danger. Nie Yun stood on the city wall, looking at the enemy troops rolling in from afar, his heart full of worries. He knew that if he couldn't find the Great Medical Saint as soon as possible to save the steward, Nanjiang City might not be able to hold on for too long.

At this critical moment, a scout came hurriedly with a hint of excitement on his face: "General, we have found the trace of a great medical saint! He is practicing in the Hundred Flowers Valley not far from Nanjiang City."

Nie Yun heard this, and a hint of ecstasy flashed in his eyes. He immediately ordered the most elite cavalry to go to the valley to welcome the Great Medical Saint. At the same time, he also ordered the defenders in the city to hold out until the Great Medical Saint arrived.

As time went by, the battle in Nanjiang City became more and more intense. The enemy's offensive surged like a tide, and the defenders in the city fought desperately, refusing to give up an inch of land.

As night fell, the enemy troops had all retreated, leaving behind only corpses and blood.

The atmosphere in the city was so oppressive that it was almost suffocating. General Nie Yun stood on the city wall, his eyes as sharp as torches, gazing at the darkness in the distance, but his heart was heavy. His brows were furrowed, and his fingers unconsciously tapped the stone bricks of the city wall, making a dull sound.

"Report!" A soldier hurriedly ran up to the tower, his voice trembling, "General, news just came that all the elite soldiers who went out to pick up the Great Medical Saint have died, no one is spared."

General Nie Yun's face darkened instantly, and he turned around abruptly, his eyes like a knife, piercing the soldier's heart. The soldier was frightened by this look and took a step back, lowering his head and not daring to speak again.

"Send more!" General Nie Yun's voice was low and firm, as if squeezed out from between his teeth, "No matter what, we must bring back the great medical saint and let him treat the chief steward's injuries, no matter what the cost."

His order was like a thunderclap, exploding on the city wall. Team after team of elite cavalrymen followed the order and marched out of the city. The sound of horse hooves echoed in the silent night sky, as if telling of their determination. However, the enemy seemed to have seen through their intentions long ago. The result of these cavalrymen was the same, and none of them could break out of the encirclement.

General Nie Yun's eyes became more anxious. He turned to look at the military advisor Chu Liuying standing beside him, and said anxiously, "Is there any other way?"

Chu Liuying sighed and shook his head: "No, there are restrictions around Nanjiang City. Teleportation is unavailable and flying mounts can't fly high. If we fly up, we will be shot down. We are completely trapped."

There was a hint of helplessness in his voice. Although he was usually resourceful, he felt a little powerless when faced with such a predicament.

General Nie Yun clenched his fists, his knuckles turning white. His heart was filled with anger and helplessness, but he knew that now was not the time to vent his emotions. He took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.

"Are we just going to sit here and wait to die?" There was a hint of unwillingness in General Nie Yun's voice.

Chu Liuying's fingers tapped the stone bricks of the city wall unconsciously, making a slight sound. After a moment of silence, he finally spoke slowly in a low voice: "There is no other way, unless a magical army can descend from the sky to break the enemy's encirclement."
