Traveling the Heavens in Thunderbolt

Chapter 118: First Encounter with Mohism
Zhutian and a group of defeated soldiers finally returned to the headquarters. Seeing the ten flag generals who followed him through life and death, and only one in ten of the magic sword soldiers were left, a feeling of sadness surged in his heart.

Looking back at the scene when the soldiers were well-organized and full of righteousness when they set out on the expedition, it formed a sharp contrast at this moment, which is extremely ironic.

But he knew that as the master of the Devil Sword, he must not show his emotions, otherwise he would
After collecting his thoughts, Zhutian let out a roaring laugh, "Hahahahahaha."

After the fierce battle, Yan Boming, one of the ten flag officers who survived, asked, "Why is the Demon King laughing? In every battle, the Right Protector and Shadow Zhongcan and other elite soldiers were trapped in the battle. With such a tragic defeat, our Demon Sword Sect suffered heavy losses after this battle."

Zhutian explained to everyone: "I am laughing after this battle. Although my Demon Sword suffered losses, it also laid the foundation for the future defeat of Tiance True Dragon. Moreover, the power of the Demon Nightmare Army cannot be underestimated. In the last battle, Tiance True Dragon's follow-up troops did not participate in the battle, which made us break through, which further proved this point. The most important point is that with Tiance True Dragon's character, he will definitely be very proud after this battle. In the next battle, Tiance True Dragon will truly experience the power of my Demon Sword."

Li Fengjian also asked, "But the Demon King, Jiuyang and the twelve priests are dead, the Demon Nightmare army has been destroyed, and we are short of troops. It is already difficult to defend the Western Desert. How can we organize our troops to continue to fight against the powerful Tiance True Dragon?"

Zhutian knew that he had to expose his hidden power in order to appease the generals, "Li Fengjian, you are wrong. The Demon Nightmare Army could not be summoned only because the summoner was killed, not destroyed. The creator of the Demon Nightmare is still alive in the world, when the next battle comes, I can catch the Tian Ce True Dragon off guard, annihilate all the Tian Ce forces in one battle, and use their blood to wash away the shame of our defeat this time." Zhutian revealed that the Demon Nightmare Army, which was feared by the world, had not been destroyed.

"So that's how it is. The Demon Emperor has a far-reaching plan. We can't wait." After hearing Zhutian's analysis, Yan Boming, Li Fengjian and others gained the courage to fight again. They began to regroup and organize their troops in preparation for the next revenge.

Just after all the generals withdrew, the Demon Sword Hall returned to peace. Only Zhutian sat quietly on the throne, thinking about the next battle strategy.

The air in the hall changed, a pleasant wind emerged, and a light and shadow appeared. Zhu Tian knew who the person was. "My friend, you are out of danger safely."

The person who came was Feng Zhihen, who had left the battlefield to support Empress Zhutian. "Well, you are seriously injured, so don't worry too much."

Zhutian waved his hand nonchalantly and said, "Let's not talk about this anymore. I just didn't expect you to take action."

Feng Zhihen did not respond to Zhutian, but analyzed the battle for him, "I thought you had a large army of demon nightmares, so you wouldn't be defeated so badly in this battle. I didn't expect that the demon nightmare was defeated first, and the ability of Tiance True Dragon was far beyond expectations. His national teacher Yunhai Guoke even predicted all your actions, which led to this defeat."

Zhutian knew the main reason for this defeat, but he didn't care about it. Instead, he asked about the news of his adopted son, "I haven't asked you yet, why did my son, Bai Yi Jian Shao, choose to quit the magic sword path, but was threatened by Tian Ce Zhen Long?"

Feng Zhihen knew that he had to face this matter eventually, so he decided to tell the truth, "Bai Yi is fine. Apart from not being able to move freely, his injuries are almost healed."

"Then why didn't he choose to return to the Devil Sword Path?"

"It's because Bai Yi knows his own life experience."

Zhu Tian asked doubtfully, because Bai Yi Jian Shao was his adopted son from a family named Qian, "Bai Yi's background? I adopted him from the Western Desert. How could I not know his background?"

"His real identity is the son of the King of Western Frontier and the half-brother of Lonely Wolf." Feng Zhihen revealed the truth about the young swordsman in white.

"What?! Bai Yi is actually from the royal family of Western Frontier, how could this be possible?!" Zhu Tian was shocked to find out that Bai Yi's background was like this, but then he suppressed his fluctuating emotions and said, "So this is the reason why Bai Yi quit the Demon Sword Path." Feng Zhihen continued, "In the previous battle, I have repaid Bai Yi for your kindness in raising him. From now on, Bai Yi has nothing to do with the Demon Sword Path anymore, and I don't want him to interfere in the dispute between you and Tiance True Dragon anymore."

"Well, that's good." Zhu Tian would no longer expect the White-Clothed Swordsman to return to the Demonic Sword Dao.

"The next battle depends on you." Feng Zhihen expressed his position that he would not interfere in future disputes, then disappeared into thin air.

Not long after Feng Zhihen left, a sinister voice came in, "With the help of Feng Zhihen and Bai Yi Jian Shao, are you really going to give up?"

Zhutian was not angry at the man for calling him by his name. "You can keep the person, but not his heart. This is a foolish move. It is better for us to keep each other's face and wait for him to use it."

"Ha, so you also have such a plan. But if you don't defeat the Tiance True Dragon, all your strategies will be useless." The owner of the sinister voice meant that he did not confess the truth to his men.

"It was inevitable. I didn't expect to suffer such a loss this time. If I don't inspire their fighting spirit, then the Demon Sword Sect will undoubtedly be defeated in the next battle with the Tiance True Dragon. Speaking of which, Ce Moulue, I also want to thank you for notifying the two protectors of the Demon Sword on my behalf, so that I could escape from the siege of the Tiance True Dragon army." This person was actually the one who delivered the message to Bai Qiushui and Jie Yulong, and was also Zhutian's most important strategist, Ce Moulue.

The person who spoke was a master of magic in the Evil Energy Realm. He was known for his wisdom and strategy. He had participated in the struggle between the former Evil Lord of the Evil Energy Realm, Yin Yang Master, and the current Evil Lord, Jiuqu Xiejun, for the leadership of the Evil Energy Realm.

After his failure, he fled, intending to establish his own empire, but he was tricked into peeling off his skin by Zhutian and the Demon Queen, who also had great ambitions. From then on, he had to obey their orders.

(Long ago, Zhutian knew that Ce Moulue was a powerful magician who could separate skin from bones to save his life, so he teamed up with his subordinate Xieshen and his wife, the Queen Demon, to play mahjong with Ce Moulue. During the game, it was hot and stuffy, so the Queen Demon took the opportunity to persuade Ce Moulue to take off his human skin to cool down, and quickly took away the human skin, so that he could only obey her. Because Xieshen lost Zhutian's cards when playing mahjong, he was exiled by Zhutian and came to the Central Plains. This is why he was surrounded by Yiyun and ten masters.)
Ce Moulue dutifully analyzed for Zhu Tian: "Speaking of this, I want to remind you that the passerby in the sea of ​​clouds beside the Tiance True Dragon cannot be ignored. I originally intended to take advantage of your retreat into the Western Desert to mobilize the army of demons to ambush inside, and take this opportunity to severely damage the Tiance True Dragon in one fell swoop and save the defeat. But unexpectedly..."

Zhu Tian answered for him, "I didn't expect that the Tian Ce True Dragon could be so patient and only chased us to the border between the Central and Western regions before withdrawing his troops."

"That's right, and according to reports from the secret line, it was Tian Ce's national master Yun Hai Guo Ke who persuaded Tian Ce Zhen Long to surrender, and the previous series of layouts were also his work. It is expected that the news that the Demon Nightmare Army has not been destroyed can no longer be hidden." Ce Mou Lue continued.

"In that case, this person is really hateful and terrifying. Do you know his identity?"

"Humph! A bunch of rats who have been buried under history finally can't hold back and take action."

"It seems that you know the details of Yunhai Passenger."

Cemolue mentioned a name from long ago: "I wonder if the Demon Emperor has ever heard of the Mohist School?"
