Turning misfortunes into good fortune starts with seizing the direct descendants in Kowloon.

Chapter 241: Four people came to surrender, but they were defeated unexpectedly. They fought against the Duke of the Blood Tribe and avenged his father-in-law!
On the way to the border.

The desolate cry of the vulture echoed in the sky, circling in circles in the distant sky.

Lu Mingyuan, who was galloping hundreds of miles away, clutched the sword-shaped jade pendant tightly in his hand and never recovered.

In the army, the veterans shrugged their heads, their morale was low, they were bored, they were cursing and their voices were thin and broken: "This time we are rushing to help Beiguan, I don't know when I can go back."

Marquis Wu An, who couldn't stand it, was furious and cursed: "Look at you now, you look like a loser whose wife has been slept with by a wild man. Show off your momentum. Don't let His Highness the Crown Prince look down on you." ”

However, these words did not make the situation better.

Lu Mingyuan put away his jade pendant and stood in the middle of the army. Looking far away, he found that most of the soldiers looked like this.

Next to him, a man in Confucian robes with long hair disheveled and a slightly lazy posture spoke to Lu Mingyuan:

"Your Highness, the tens of thousands of people we are leading now may look glamorous on the surface, but they are actually old, weak, sick and disabled. It is extremely difficult to achieve anything in this battle."

There was a hint of worry in his tone.

These are old soldiers who have been exhausted. What big things can they be expected to do?
Not to mention defeating the Holy Ming army, just trying to protect yourself is too much.

Lu Mingyuan was a general for the first time, so he could naturally see the clues.

On the surface, my father agreed readily, but in fact, he counted many old and weak people, but he just didn't want him to make a difference.

He went out with great fanfare and came back with a dusty face.

He shook his head and said: "Our main purpose this time is to recover the coffin for Mr. Qi, not to start a war."

Originally, he had never thought too much about relying on the power of the army.

It is better to ask for yourself than for others.

"As long as we win this battle, do you know what it means? Your name will go down in history! This is a good opportunity to leave your name in history!"

Marquis Wu'an tried his best to boost morale and asked most of the officers to boost their fighting spirit. Not to mention all the soldiers, those captains must at least have the courage to lift their swords.

"But, even Qi Xingyan died in the battle, what can we do?" A captain next to him whispered.

As soon as the commander finished speaking, his morale, which had been improving for a while, collapsed instantly, and he did not speak for a long time.

Yeah, can they win?

In the eyes of these soldiers who went out with the army, people like Qi Xingyan were often out of reach, and some had never even heard of him.

But it does not prevent them from knowing that a big figure in the imperial court has recently passed away at the border.

Such big figures died on the front line, how could small characters like them win?

Is it possible that we have to rely on His Highness the Crown Prince?

In their understanding, His Highness the Crown Prince had never led an army before, and this time he was only the nominal commander. In fact, they all regarded Wu Anhou as the commander.

Although Marquis Wu'an was deeply affected by the mutiny of the three princes, he was still a Marquis Wu who had made great contributions to the Great Yan Dynasty.

But Qi Xingyan's death was a heavy blow to the soldiers of Dayan.

The kind that directly defeats scholars.

"Whoosh!"

Suddenly, a rainbow light flashed across the sky, stopped steadily in mid-air, and a flying sword fell down.

All the officers and men felt as if they were facing a powerful enemy.

But when the figure was revealed, the neat figure of a woman in scarlet robe emerged, and then they heard the woman say loudly:
"I am the true disciple of Taihao Sword Sect, Li Exi."

"Come and serve His Highness the Crown Prince."

The soldiers around him slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

"He is a Qi practitioner from Taihao Sword Sect."

"Who is Fairy Exi?"

"You don't even know about her? She is quite famous. She is ranked 81st on the Great Yan Mountains and Rivers Ranking as a swordsman."

"Being able to fly with a sword seems very powerful."

The soldiers were whispering among themselves. The lower class had no deep concept of cultivation levels, or even knew nothing about them. In their eyes, the middle and fifth-level monks all looked the same, and they were all gods with great supernatural powers.

Go to heaven and earth, step on thunder and control fire, everything is possible.

Li Exi landed the flying sword and came to Lu Mingyuan

She looked at Lu Mingyuan with a little surprise.

This Prince of Dayan has handsome and delicate facial features. He does not give people the feeling of being feminine or handsome, but has a noble temperament like a god, with a natural beauty like jade.

His brows were indifferent, carrying an indelible sadness.

Li Exi bowed and said respectfully:
"We have heard that in the name of Mr. Qi's righteousness, he can sacrifice his life for justice for the people of a city and resist the army of the Holy Ming Dynasty. Now that His Highness can take the initiative to go to Tianxuan to pay his last respects to Mr. E Xi, as one of the many monks participating in the war, he should be Do your part.”

Lu Mingyuan nodded, roughly understanding her purpose.

After Qi Xingyan's death, Tianxuanzhou's defense line almost collapsed, and monks from various places fought on their own.

It relied solely on the desperate resistance of local monks.

Now, he represents the Great Yan Imperial Court and goes to Tianxuan. Naturally, many monks will come to seek refuge with him.

Li Exi's imperceptible consciousness swept over Lu Mingyuan, but she was unable to perceive the depth of Lu Mingyuan's strength.

Doesn’t His Royal Highness have any cultivation base?

In other words, the strength is higher than hers, so she can't feel a breath.

No matter what, Li Exi still became serious in her heart.

Lu Mingyuan calmed down and said softly: "You said that you were one of the monks who participated in the war. In that case, tell me what happened from the time you went out to the war, and what he went through and whose hands he died. ”

Li Exi nodded and said: "Actually, there are many things that I have just come to my senses now. It's not that Great Yan was defeated by Sheng Ming, but that there was a spy among the human race. If the blood clan army had not bypassed Yuyang Pass, maybe all of them would have been killed. The old gentleman will not be stabbed in the back, let alone threatened by many vampire monks."

Lu Mingyuan asked: "The horse that killed Mr. was not the one belonging to Empress Da Ming?"

Li Exi shook her head: "No, Empress Da Ming has always been at the front. The other city gates are guarded by other Great Wall guards from the imperial court. The Yuyang Pass where the Blood Tribe broke through is a very inconspicuous small pass. Its strength is a bit weak. The battlefield on the side is It is controlled by the vampire tribe in the underworld.”

"Your Highness, you may not know that the Holy Ming World is dominated by the Da Ming Court on the surface, but in fact, it is dominated by the monks of the ten tribes of the underworld. Each of the ten tribes fights and each has its own distribution system."

Lu Mingyuan knew this.

In his second life, he participated in a war between two worlds.

The Great Ming Court is only the leader. The specific situation of the battle depends entirely on whether the princes of the ten clans are willing to contribute.

Even the leader of the Great Ming Kingdom cannot directly order the armies of the ten tribes to fully cooperate.

The Demon Kingdom has its own army. If you want to control the armies of the ten tribes, you can only go through the princes of the ten tribes, instead of directly giving orders to all races.

This makes it easy for military aircraft to be delayed. It has always been like this in the Great Underworld. There are many existences similar to princes and kings. They have considerable military strength, but they have their own ideas and can benefit their own race.

Next.

Li Exi eloquently explained how Qi Xingyan divided his troops after the expedition, built a solid line of defense, and tried his best to resist for enough time to explore the true route of the main force of the Demon Kingdom.

The ten tribes fight on their own, and the conditions of each section of the Great Wall are different, and the distribution of troops corresponding to Dayan is also different.

Although there were some twists and turns in the process, the goal has been achieved. They found the location of the main force of the Great Ming Empress. They waited in advance and settled in the Tianxuan Mansion City, which was easy to defend and difficult to attack. It took enough time.

He kept talking until the Taoist League came to help.

The Origin Lady and the Five Thunder Immortals, two powerful men of the Fourteenth Realm, took action.

A draw with the demon king.

He mobilized enough troops to defend other battlefields, but in the middle of the retreat, he was ambushed by the Blood Tribe on the western battlefield. He was trapped in a city. Qi Xingyan tried his best to protect the people of the city from retreating until he died in battle, and finally died at the hands of the Duke of the Blood Tribe's Burial Tribe. .
Vampires, again Vampires.
Lu Mingyuan's face looked uncertain. The other party is the Duke of the Blood Tribe, which means that he is at least a member of the Twelve Realms.

The five middle grades correspond to Gong, Hou, Bo, Zi and Nan respectively.

The twelve realms are the title of the Duke of the country.

When the hatred gradually subsided, Lu Mingyuan re-examined the battle, and indeed, as Li Exi said, he found something wrong.

It's really weird that the vampires can know Qi Xingyan's withdrawal route.

Is it possible that there is really a spy among the human race?
What exactly is the backup plan that the father-in-law mentioned in the hairpin?
As his thoughts were undulating, Lu Mingyuan took a deep breath: "Why hasn't Sir's coffin arrived in the capital for so long?"

Li Exi was distracted, glanced at the army with low morale, and said slowly: "The vampire clan threatened that the corpse of the sage was priceless, so they cut off Mr. Qi's coffin on the way, and it is now in Tianshui City."

"Too deceiving!"

Lu Mingyuan suddenly became furious and punched the armrest of the sedan, making a banging sound.

Blood debts must be paid with blood. No matter how powerful the blood clan leader is or how many monks he brings here, he must die this time.

"In that case, go directly to Tianshui City!"

Lu Mingyuan gave an order, and the vast army galloped towards Tianshui City.

along the way.

Many monks came, including martial arts practitioners, Qi practitioners, Confucian scholars, and monks.

Most of them, like Li Exi, heard that Lu Mingyuan was going to Tianshui City to retrieve the body for Qi Xingyan, so they came to help.

In terms of strength, there is a lot of difference. There are few monks who are higher than the eleventh realm.

Starting from the military towns along the way, with the speed of the army, it didn't take long to arrive near Tianshui City.

Tianshui City is close to a body of water, where there is the largest lake in Dayan, Tianshui Lake.

The water area is extremely vast, like an ancient ocean. The lake seems to come from the sky. It is vast and mysterious as always. The spatial structure is so complex that even the stars floating in it look very small.

White mist floats on the water, layer upon layer, blocking the view. No matter how strong your eyesight is, it is difficult to see clearly the scene deep in the water.

The army came here, and soon two more monks came to join them.

"The sect leader of Linglong Blessed Land, Yu Linglong."

"The sword-wielding disciple of Fuyao Sword Palace, Yao Guang."

Lu Mingyuan's eyes were on the woman in plain clothes wearing a white hat and veil in front of him, and he always felt a little familiar.

He shook his head and asked, "You guys have been waiting here for a long time. Do you have any information about the vampires?"

The cold-faced man holding the green scabbard nodded slightly: "We also want to retrieve Mr. Qi's coffin, but we have been unable to break through the ten-direction blood prison array set up by the blood clan. We can only wait for the imperial army outside the city."

"Prince Dayan, are you looking for me?"

Very suddenly, a soft voice sounded from between heaven and earth.

With a thought in his mind, Lu Mingyuan turned his gaze to the city head beside the vast misty sky and water.

In the thick white mist, a tall figure walked out slowly, looking at Lu Mingyuan with a ferocious smile.

"Prince Dayan, I heard that you are looking for me?"

This person is nearly three meters tall and has a noble temperament. He has a pair of huge jade blood wings on his back. His eyes are huge, like two big lanterns. His nose is collapsed, like a gorilla, and his mouth is full of jagged fangs. The canine teeth are extremely ugly.

But the aura exuding from his body is quite powerful. Tens of millions of blood-colored filaments of demonic energy are faintly visible outside the body. The sinful blood is entangled outside the body. It is already so rich that it cannot be dissolved. It is difficult to imagine. How many lives did it kill?

"Bury the Duke with blood."

A terrifying murderous intention flashed in Yao Guang's eyes.

"Is he the Duke of the Blood Tribe?" Lu Mingyuan asked.

"Exactly."

Yao Guang almost couldn't hold his sword hand any longer and was ready to move, so he nodded.

Lu Mingyuan looked at the blood-buried Duke.

The other party seemed to have guessed that he would come here.

Lu Mingyuan narrowed his eyes and said, "Did you lure me to Tianshui City on purpose?"

"Yes, all the monks in the world know that this old man has a close relationship with you, but he died in my hands. Lu Mingyuan, you must be very angry, don't you want to tear this king into pieces? Haha. !" The Duke of Blood Burial laughed wildly.

After a pause, the Duke of Blood Burial continued: "The old man is really stupid, with a holy heart, he actually resisted my king's natal magic weapon, the Purgatory Bone Tower, for the sake of tens of thousands of people. However, that old guy is quite powerful, I, the king For a whole hour, he was not dead.

But by the way, this old guy's blood is really good. He is worthy of being the blood of a sage. It is pure and powerful. He didn't even hum before he died, which really made me very unhappy. "

What disappointed the Duke was that after he said so much, Lu Mingyuan did not become furious, and still seemed very calm, as if he didn't care about these things at all.

Lu Mingyuan looked at the other party calmly and said indifferently: "Do you have any last words? This is your last chance."

According to the information he has, this prince is indeed very strong. He has reached the twelfth realm, but he can only be regarded as the bottom of the twelfth realm. There is no chance.

However, there are various signs that things this time are not that simple.

The Duke of Blood Burial obviously knew that the Great Yan Imperial Court would send strong men from the human race, and he dared to show up on his own initiative, instead of evacuating, and stayed here, and looked confident, which was undoubtedly abnormal.

However, no matter what kind of conspiracy he has, he is destined to die.

"Lu Mingyuan, you are the one who should leave your last words. You don't know it when you are about to die." The Duke of Blood Burial sneered.

Lu Mingyuan didn't say anything, and looked indifferently in all directions.

Even though the opponent's aura was extremely well controlled and had the influence of the Heavenly Water Realm, he was still able to sense it.

"According to rumors, the sixth prince of Dayan is a notorious playboy. I thought he was a coward, but now it seems that he values ​​love and justice."

A very magnetic voice suddenly sounded.

Two figures, one tall and one short, slowly walked out of the white mist of Tianshui.

The person who just spoke was a tall and handsome man with red phoenix eyes and a high nose bridge. His appearance was more perfect than most women. He was dressed in red and had a fair complexion. He was holding a jade fan. He looked elegant and gave people an impression. A weird feeling.

This person's body was filled with yin energy, and wherever he went, the lake surface was covered with ice.

The person next to him is relatively short in stature, but extremely strong, with fat head and big ears, with his chest exposed, a string of thick rosary beads hanging around his neck, and a string of rosary beads in his hand. The image is almost the same as that of Monks are generally the same.

However, the exposed skin is full of strange lines and the slightly scarlet eyes indicate that this person is not a normal monk, but a demon Buddha.

He is an evil Buddha who has gone crazy.

"It turns out to be two masters from the ghost clan and the demon clan, Mr. Shao and the Great Buddha of Xinhuo."

Li Exi glanced at the two of them and immediately knew their identities.

After seeing the two of them, Lu Mingyuan understood everything instantly.

The reason why this blood clan prince dared to come to the Eastern Region with such arrogance and went straight to Tianshui was because of the presence of two Shengming masters.

On the surface, it was to humiliate the human monks, but in fact, it was to seduce.

Their target is actually themselves.

"With us here, we can't even think of taking action against His Highness the Crown Prince!"

"Get through us first!"

Yao Guang, Yu Linglong, and the many monks behind Li Exi lined up and offered their own magic weapons. They were ready. This was the purpose of their coming here.

Today, I vow to avenge Mr. Qi!
