I am Master Maoshan

Chapter 2087 Dragon Ao Emperor

Walking out of the dungeon, the night breeze blew on his face, bringing a hint of coolness. General Nie Yun tilted his head slightly and asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, how many people are there from the Zhen Sect?"

Liu Jun didn't even turn his head, his voice was cold and indifferent: "Keep them, give them good food and drink, we can't break our promise. Of course, if they want to escape the dungeon, or do other things that they shouldn't do, just kill them."

General Nie Yun nodded, a hint of understanding flashed in his eyes: "I understand."

Liu Jun paused slightly and looked up at the night sky. The starlight reflected in his eyes, as if containing endless meaning.

"Although the Zhen Sect was defeated, I really want to obtain their formation inheritance, so they are the bargaining chips for the future," said Liu Jun.

General Nie Yun was silent for a moment, then asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, do you need me to send someone to closely monitor them?"

Liu Jun waved his hand and said calmly, "Don't be too deliberate. The people of Zhenzong have always been arrogant. If they notice our vigilance, it will arouse their resistance. Just keep an eye on us secretly."

General Nie Yun nodded in agreement, but he was secretly alert in his heart. He knew that every move of Liu Jun had a hidden meaning, and if he was not careful, he might lose the whole game.

At the same time, deep in the dungeon, Elder Zhang Jin slowly raised his head, a complex look flashed in his eyes, and whispered to the two young elders beside him: "Liu Jun is a man with deep scheming. We need to be careful. Don't do anything to anger him."

The female elder frowned, a trace of anxiety flashed in her eyes, and she asked in a low voice: "Are we really going to sit there and wait for death, watching Wu Rendi trap us to death here?"

Elder Zhang Jin slowly raised his head, his eyes deep and solemn: "No, if there is a chance, of course we have to escape. But the situation is complicated now. We are deep in the enemy's base camp. Any rash action will only lead to us falling into a trap. We can only hope that someone in the sect can come to rescue us."

"Who can come?" The young male elder at the side couldn't help but interrupt, with a bit of helplessness and resentment in his tone, "You are trapped here. Who in the sect doesn't know the reputation of Wu Rendi? Who dares to come?"

Elder Zhang Jin was silent for a moment, a complicated look flashed in his eyes, and he slowly said: "Wu Rendi has signed a contract and will not attack anyone below the late stage of the Half-Step Divine King Realm. This means that we are not hopeless. There is a person who may be able to save us, and he has the ability to do so."

"You mean... Emperor Long Ao?" The two young elders blurted out almost at the same time, with a bit of shock and expectation in their eyes.

Long Aodi, this name is well-known in the Zhen Sect. He is not only the peerless genius of the Zhen Sect, but also one of the few young strong men in the entire God Realm. His talent and strength have long surpassed his peers, and even many strong men of the older generation are in awe of him.

And it was he who placed the restrictions on General Nie Yun's daughter.

Elder Zhang Jin nodded, a glimmer of hope flashed in his eyes: "Yes, if Long Aodi can come, maybe we still have a chance of survival."

"But..." The female elder hesitated for a moment and whispered, "Emperor Long Ao has always been a loner. Will he be willing to rescue us? Moreover, the power of the Skyfire Divine Realm is so huge. Can he really handle it alone?"

Elder Zhang Jin took a deep breath, his eyes firm: "Although Emperor Long Ao has an arrogant personality, he will not sit idly by and watch the people in the sect fall into danger. As for the forces of the Skyfire Divine Realm, Emperor Long Ao is not a fool. He will not fight hard, he will naturally think of other ways."

A hint of excitement flashed in the eyes of the young male elder: "If Long Aodi can really come, then we will be saved! But how can we contact him? Where is he now?"

Elder Zhang Jin frowned slightly, and after thinking for a moment, he said: "Emperor Long Ao's whereabouts are uncertain. We can only hope that he can get the news that we have been captured and come here on his own."

"Yes, we are trapped here. Even if we know where Emperor Long Ao is, we can't contact him." The young male elder said with a sigh.

At this time, on the top of a mountain less than 200 miles away from Nanjiang City, clouds and mist shrouded the mountain, and the wind was cold. A young man in a white robe, with fluttering sleeves, stood on a huge rock, looking at Nanjiang City in the distance with a sharp gaze. There was a hint of amusement in his eyes, as if he was thinking about some profound question.

"Interesting, Elder Zhang Jin was captured, and it was not the Wu people who did it. Interesting." The young man in white robe laughed, his voice was low and magnetic, as if he was talking to himself, and as if he was talking to the world.

"Young Master Long, should we save Elder Zhang Jin and the others?" A hoarse voice suddenly came from behind the young man in white robe, as if it came from the void, with a hint of coldness.

However, there was no sign of anyone around. It was obvious that this person had a very strong ability to hide, and could even remain unnoticed in front of a strong man like Long Aodi.

"Save him, of course." Long Aodi touched his chin, a gleam in his eyes, "Elder Zhang Jin is at least half my master, it's not my character to watch someone die without saving him. But, I have to think carefully about how to save him. After all, it won't be fun if I mess up."

There was a hint of teasing in his words, as if he was talking about a game that was about to begin rather than a life-and-death rescue operation.

"Then I'll go and gather some information first?" The hoarse voice sounded again, with a hint of temptation.

"Go ahead, don't be careless." Long Aodi nodded slightly, his eyes still looking at Nanjiang City in the distance, "That place is full of powerful people. If you are not careful, you may be doomed." Although his tone was relaxed, his eyes were solemn, and it was obvious that he knew the situation in Nanjiang City well.

The hoarse voice did not respond, as if it had quietly left and disappeared into the vast mountains and forests.

Long Aodi was still standing on the boulder, his eyes deep, as if he was thinking about his next move. His white robe fluttered in the wind, and he stood on the top of the mountain like a sculpture, overlooking the Nanjiang City in the distance.

After a moment, Long Aodi smiled again and whispered to himself, "Nanjiang City is really an interesting place. There are obviously no powerful people here, but Wu Rendi is willing to sign a contract with those guys. That means he has some hidden cards. In that case, I will have some fun with you guys."

As soon as he finished speaking, his figure disappeared from the boulder like a ghost, as if he had never appeared. The top of the mountain returned to silence again, with only the sound of the wind whistling in the ears, as if telling of the coming storm.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, the dawn comes again. The walls of Nanjiang City look particularly majestic in the morning light, but also reveal a sense of tragedy.

The coalition forces did not give the defenders of Nanjiang City any chance to catch their breath. At dawn, they once again gathered their forces and launched a fierce attack. This time, the offensive was more fierce than yesterday, and the scale was significantly larger. Infantry, cavalry, archers, catapults, and even heavy artillery... All kinds of troops were deployed, and the means of attack emerged one after another, as if they wanted to completely raze Nanjiang City to the ground.

However, surprisingly, there was still no strong man above the mid-stage of the Half-step Divine King Realm among the coalition forces. Obviously, both sides were testing each other and waiting for the other to reveal a flaw. Therefore, the focus of this battle was still on the ordinary soldiers.

The fighting among the soldiers was far more brutal and shocking than the duel between the strong. On the battlefield, swords flashed and blood flew everywhere. Every inch of land was stained with blood, and lives were lost every moment.

Liu Jun and others stood on the city wall, watching all this. They did not take action, but handed over the command to the generals of the Liehuo Army and Jihuo Army. These two generals had experienced many battles and led their respective troops to fight bravely.

The soldiers of the Fiery Army charged forward with spears in hand, like a group of burning flames, and wherever they went, the enemies were defeated. The soldiers of the Extreme Fire Army moved freely on the battlefield with their swift speed and accurate archery skills, causing huge casualties to the enemy.

The battlefield once again became a giant meat grinder, ruthlessly devouring the lives of soldiers on both sides. Every charge, every confrontation, was accompanied by countless wails and screams. The air was filled with a strong smell of blood, as if even the sky was dyed red.

The soldiers' eyes were filled with fear and despair, but they still held their weapons tightly and fought desperately, because they knew that only by fighting could they gain a glimmer of hope for themselves and their families behind them.

Liu Jun stood on a high place, watching all this with deep eyes. There was no wave in his heart, as if the tragic scene before him had been expected by him. He knew that this war was far from over, and the real decisive battle was still to come. At this moment, what he needed to do was to preserve his strength and wait for the most critical moment.

"General, should we send reinforcements?" A deputy general stepped forward, looked at General Nie Yun, and asked in a low voice.

General Nie Yun shook his head and said calmly, "No need. Let them continue to consume the enemy's troops. Our goal is not the immediate victory, but the final victory."

The deputy general nodded and retreated. General Nie Yun looked back at the battlefield, calculating the time silently in his heart. He knew that this war had just begun, and the real storm was about to come.

As time went by, the fighting on the battlefield became more and more intense. Soldiers on both sides were already blood-thirsty, totally disregarding life and death. All they had in their eyes was the enemy and victory.

However, the price of victory was the loss of countless lives. Under the walls of Nanjiang City, corpses piled up like mountains and blood flowed like rivers, as if even the earth was crying for this war.

Liu Jun stood on the city wall with extremely complicated feelings. Although he had experienced many life and death situations, scenes like this were rare and he was not used to it.

The battle-hardened General Nie Yun watched all this quietly, without a trace of pity in his heart, only calmness and rationality.

He knew that war was always cruel, and victory was often won at the cost of countless lives. The only thing he could do was to minimize his own losses in this war and at the same time, inflict the heaviest blow on the enemy.

"It's almost time." General Nie Yun muttered to himself, then slowly turned around and glanced at the deputy general behind him. His tone was firm and powerful: "Pass the order down and prepare for the next stage of the attack."

The deputy general took the order and left, moving quickly, as if every step was on the pulse of time.

Liu Jun looked at the battlefield again, with a cold light flashing in his eyes. He knew that the real decisive battle was about to begin.

As the rockets fired collectively, the enemy's attack was instantly suppressed. The artillery roared, the smoke filled the air, and everything on the battlefield seemed to freeze at this moment. However, in this brief calm, a light curtain quickly spread from the center of the enemy, covering most of the soldiers in the blink of an eye.

The shells from the sky rockets landed on the light curtain, only causing a few ripples on the light curtain, but not causing any harm to the soldiers inside. This scene instantly made the atmosphere in the command camp tense.

"Oh, you are smart, and you are willing to invest so much that you even use the protective light curtain." General Nie Yun said coldly, with a sneer on his face. There was a hint of admiration in his eyes, but more of it was murderous intent.
