Unparalleled Evildoer

Chapter 342 Two Conditions
The monsters were busy putting out the fire and did not chase Wuzhan and his disciple. Less than half a mile after they flew, they found civilians fleeing in the forest. Lingkongzi carried Wuzhan to chase after them. Bixia and others had already killed the monsters that were holding the civilians in the forest and were escorting the civilians to escape to Julu City.

When Bixia saw that there was no obstacle, she felt inexpressibly grateful. If it weren't for his careful planning and arrangements, how could she have saved so many people by just forcing her way in? Their lives might even have been lost. How could she have escaped without any danger?

Looking at Miaoxin who ran to Wuzhan with such joy, it became very clear why Miaoxin left her and why she could not help herself.

……

It was dawn again when they returned to Julu City. The rescued people saw that the city walls were reborn. They had been living in terror and suffering for the past few days and had completely despaired. They had never thought that they could escape death.

However, Wuzhan, Bixia and others knew that the people who were rescued were only a small part of them. A large number of people were still suffering from the massacre. Moreover, although the transmission platform was burned, the foundation was still there, and the impact would not be small.

After returning to the county government office, Wuzhan and the others were exhausted. Wuzhan immediately invited the county magistrate Xu Li and the county lieutenant You Ji to tell them that the monster would attack the city tonight. When the two heard this, their legs trembled and they immediately panicked.

Due to time constraints, Wuzhan had to redeploy and, on the other hand, release dozens of prisoners to make up the numbers by allowing them to make up for their crimes with meritorious service.

After the instructions were completed, half an hour had passed. The two of them left in a hurry and followed Wuzhan's deployment to complete the tasks and implemented them one by one.

Wuzhan returned to the room and was about to take off his clothes and take a bath when he heard a sad voice coming from the other side of the bed, "Sir is so cruel. Xiaoxiang has been waiting in bed all night, but you didn't even come back to take a look."

Wuzhan closed his shirt and smiled, "The Holy Envoy was joking. If this were to get out, it would affect the Holy Envoy's noble status, and a large number of people from the cultivation world would come to hunt me down. I can't afford it."

"Who are you kidding? I am serious. Besides, my Nitian Sect doesn't have so many rules. I just need to do my duty. I am not asked not to marry. It's because you have high standards and don't like Xiaoxiang!" She got up from the bed, stretched, looked at Wuzhan's bloody clothes, and said in surprise: "Did you go to kill someone? Why are you covered in blood?"

"I went to the monster camp last night and killed a few monsters. They splashed all over me."

Ye Xiaoxiang pinched her nose and came to Wuzhan, looked at Wuzhan and said, "No wonder you didn't come back all night. It seems you are not hiding from me. Sir, do you want Xiaoxiang to bathe and change clothes for you?"

Wuzhan said hurriedly, "I dare not trouble you, but please wait for a moment, and let me take a shower and change my clothes."

"Hmph, do you really think that I would be willing to do that?" She then said complainingly, "Sir, you'd better go wash yourself. You've been waiting for a whole night, so a little longer won't make a difference." She really went back to the bedside and fell back.

Wuzhan quickly washed up in another room, changed into a neat robe and returned to the bedroom. Ye Xiaoxiang stood up and looked at Wuzhan and praised him, "Sir, you are really as handsome as jade. No wonder so many girls like you."

Wuzhan was a little embarrassed and asked hurriedly, "Does the Holy Envoy have any good news to tell me?"

Ye Xiaoxiang was puzzled and said, "This is really strange. I didn't expect the elders to reply so quickly and actually agree to lend us troops. This is something that has never happened before in my Nitian Sect."

Wuzhan knew the reason behind this, and it was within his expectations. He smiled and said, "I really have to thank your church for its generous help, and I also want to thank the Holy Envoy for fighting for me."

Ye Xiaoxiang said: "I do have a question. I really want to go back and ask the elders what they are arguing about, Master. There has always been a vacancy for a Dharma King in the sect. Could it be that you want Master to be the Dharma King of our sect?"

Wuzhan said: "Perhaps that's what you mean. I wonder how many soldiers your sect wants to borrow and when they will arrive?"

"Two thousand elite soldiers, all former subordinates of Han Xiaoting's Fire and Wind Sects, are on their way here and will arrive within ten days."

Wuzhan thought: "We can only catch up with the cavalry, but this is already very fast."

Ye Xiaoxiang said: "My sect never does business at a loss. I need you to complete two things. The first is that after the matter is completed, you have to stop Xu Shi and take the dragon ball from him. The second is that after arriving in Dongsheng Shenzhou, you have to obtain the body of a demon emperor for my sect."

Wuzhan knew that these two things were preparations for the resurrection of Chiyou, and each one was more difficult than the other. "The Demon Emperor has been practicing for at least a thousand years. His strength is comparable to that of a Daluo Jinxian. He is the supreme demon beast, and his magical powers are unparalleled. How could I do that?"

Ye Xiaoxiang chuckled and said, "This is indeed difficult, but with your intelligence and wisdom, you should be able to do it. We are willing to lend you soldiers because we believe in your ability. We will also do our best to assist you."

Wuzhan said: "In this case, I can only do my best."

Ye Xiaoxiang suddenly said gently: "During this period of time, Xiaoxiang will also accompany you until the monster is defeated. Sir, why don't you quickly order your disciples to prepare a room for me? Do you really want Xiaoxiang to sleep here?"

Wuzhan said: "I'm afraid this is not necessary. The monsters will attack the city tonight and this place will become a ruin."

Ye Xiaoxiang was surprised and said, "You came so quickly, don't you have a plan to defend this place?"

"There are less than 400 people in the city who can fight. It is impossible to defend against the fierce attack of hundreds of monsters with 400 people. Even if we can defend, there will be heavy casualties. So we can only abandon the city and let those monsters die in the sea of ​​fire."

Ye Xiaoxiang said: "Good plan, then when do we leave?"

"If we evacuate too early, they will find us and we won't fall for their trick. Only at night can the people evacuate. Moreover, the soldiers in the city must hold on for a while and give them some trouble. This will completely anger them and cause them to rush into the city. Once the city gate is broken, we will evacuate quickly." Ye Xiaoxiang said, "I don't understand one thing. Since 400 people can't fight against hundreds of monsters, why did you use a thousand soldiers to fight against tens of thousands of monsters?"

Wuzhan smiled and said, "This is different. The people of your sect have a certain level of cultivation, have seen the world, and can obey orders. They can complete the tasks I assign, but the soldiers in this city cannot do that. Moreover, against the army of monsters, I have thought of a strategy that may achieve a surprise victory, but it can only be used once, so it must be left for the army of monsters behind."

Ye Xiaoxiang asked curiously: "What kind of strategy is it? Can you tell Xiaoxiang in advance?"

Wuzhan said: "I will tell the Holy Envoy once your sect's elite troops arrive. Now is not the right time."

At this time, Yunchu walked in and saw Wuzhe chatting and laughing with a charming woman. After a closer look, she found that it was Ye Xiaoxiang, the Holy Envoy of the Nitian Sect. Although she was angry, she did not dare to offend her. She bowed to Ye Xiaoxiang and said, "Yunchu greets the Holy Envoy."

Ye Xiaoxiang looked at Yunchu and smiled, "Do your disciples always come in uninvited like this?" These words were particularly sharp. Not only did they point out Yunchu's identity, but they also said that she didn't know the rules. Logically, she had met Yunchu before and had a good impression of her, so she shouldn't have said such words. However, after seeing Wuzhan's true face this time, she felt sour in her heart.

Wuzhan said hurriedly: "I usually don't discipline him enough, please forgive me, Holy Envoy."

Yunchu immediately smelled something sour, and instead of getting angry, she smiled and said, "I don't know about this Saint Envoy. Master usually dotes on us disciples, so we naturally let him do what he wants."

Ye Xiaoxiang said: "Then I want to hear how to pamper her more?"

Wuzhan saw that the two of them would lose control if they continued talking like this, so he asked Yunchu, "What do you want from me?"

Yunchu said, "Yuan Jun asked me to advise Master. You didn't sleep last night to save the people, and you have to fight again tonight. I hope you can rest early and conserve your energy to avoid missing out on important things."

Wuzhan said: "I know, go tell Yuanjun that she also needs more rest, go down!"

Yunchu said "hmm" and left the room. During this time, she glanced at Ye Xiaoxiang again. Ye Xiaoxiang didn't care and said to Wuzhan: "It seems that Yuanjun really cares about you. She can even hear us talking here."

Wuzhan said: "Saint Envoy Ye, please don't make fun of Yuanjun. In this world, which sect can fight for the people and care about the people?"

Seeing Wuzhan's expression change slightly, showing his displeasure, Ye Xiaoxiang stood up and said with a smile: "Since so many people care about me, Xiaoxiang will not disturb you to rest. I will go and gather the people in this area, hoping that they can help you in the evening."

Wuzhan bowed and thanked him: "I really have to thank the Holy Envoy."

Ye Xiaoxiang came in front of Wuzhan and said seductively, "Everyone told me to call you Xiaoxiang. Sir, you have a really bad memory. We hit it off from the first sight. Don't you care?" Without waiting for Wuzhan to answer, she stepped forward and kissed Wuzhan on the cheek, then turned into a red cloud and flew out of the window with a giggle.

After Ye Xiaoxiang left, Wuzhan was exhausted but couldn't sleep. He lay on the bed with his eyes closed for a long time.

At night, You Ji brought Xu Li to see Wuzhan. After seeing him, he pushed Xu Li to the ground and said angrily, "This cowardly man actually took his family out of the city in disguise. I found him and caught him back. It's up to you, sir, to deal with him."

Xu Li trembled all over, knelt down and cried, "Sir, please forgive me, I have no choice. Once the city gate is broken, I will die. My death is not a pity, but my family of more than ten people cannot die here with me!"

Wuzhan said, "Didn't I tell you that I would save the county governor's life? Doesn't the county governor believe me? Besides, we are not asking the county governor to defend the city with us, but to take the people with us when the time comes. Why is the county governor so anxious?"

Xu Li said, "Once the beast attacks, it will be too late to escape. Sir, I know that deserting is a capital crime. If you only spare my family, I will die in front of you!"

Wuzhan helped Xu Li up and said, "If the county magistrate dies, who will command the people to evacuate tonight? I can save the county magistrate's family. As long as the county magistrate can lead the people to evacuate safely when the monsters attack the city tonight, what happened today will be treated as if it never happened. But if there are people left in the city, I will kill a few people from the county magistrate's family. What do you think?"

Xu Li was in a dilemma: "If an old man refuses to leave even if you beat him to death, and I can't persuade him, what should I do?"

Wuzhan said: "We have to carry them away, that is the job of the county magistrate. Can the county magistrate do it?"

Xu Li dared not say that he couldn't do it, and lamented: "Then I can only do my best."

Wuzhan said: "The county magistrate should go to open the granary and distribute the grain now. Remember to distribute the grain to people in the city so that it will be easier to gather the people in the city. After the distribution is completed, the monsters will probably come soon, and then the county magistrate will lead the people to evacuate."

Xu Li bowed and said, "I will do it right away!" Then he left the county government office with heavy steps.

You Ji said, "Sir, why did you let this guy go? Wouldn't it be better to just kill him?"

Wuzhan said: "He has been an official here for many years and knows the people here very well. Moreover, at this critical moment, only he can speak and the people can trust him. This is the best. At least he dare not be negligent now."
