Chapter 373: Jiuzhou is full, auspicious signs are coming (asking for monthly tickets)
Seal the mountain and offer sacrifices to heaven.

After these words were spoken, Helian Bo's cheek twitched. He was unwilling, but the torn wound on his shoulder was in great pain, and he did not have the courage to refuse. The high priest held the golden royal seal of Tuyuhun in his hand, his face completely filled with fanaticism.

The era when Tuyuhun was in power was the most prosperous period in the Western Regions in the past few hundred years. The kings did not miss that era, but these priests all missed that era. He looked at the kings and the general from the Central Plains in front of him.

In the end, we should obey and help these kings and Khans.

Or is it this fierce general who ran around with just a few thousand men?

The bloodstains on the halberd had not yet dried.

After a moment's hesitation, he moved extremely quickly and without hesitation.

He bowed respectfully and said, "Great king, I am your subject, and I am here to welcome your sacrifice to heaven. I am the teacher of all the gods and witches, and I am also the one who presides over this grand sacrifice."

Li Guanyi hummed, overlooking the battle situation, his spirit relaxed, holding his weapon. The noble cavalry in the rear of the Western Regions could not compare with the fierce and cunning wolf-like style of the Western Regions army on the front line.

Li Guanyi's troops dispersed them, and before they could fully display their military strength, the opposite side had already been dispersed. The oppression that Li Guanyi and the Beiwei Army suffered this time was completely incomparable to that of the Wolf King's 5,000 Canglang Guards.

But, it's over.

The most important thing is that he can cross a distance of thousands of miles and find [Juxu Mountain] with incredible accuracy. The battlefield in the Western Regions is just a node here. Li Guanyi's gaze is far-reaching, as if he can see the battlefield thousands of miles away.

On the real battlefield in the Western Regions, the vortex of the world's situation is spinning wildly.

Yuwen Tianxian, Yuwen Hua, Jiang Gao, Ye Buyi, Zhou Liuying, Zhou Pinglu.

These old friends are galloping across the battlefield.

Very good, very good.

Gentlemen, wait and see!

Li Guanyi stretched out his hand, as if he was holding the distant Western Regions. The Nine Provinces Cauldron in his chest roared, and the luck of the tribes of various countries carried by the kings and Khans rose up, like a flying eagle, a huge sheep, and a mighty yak.

Then they were all swallowed up by the luck behind Li Guanyi. The white tiger walked proudly, already possessing the power of the White Emperor, a tiger swallowing a sheep, tearing an eagle apart, and forcefully crushing it in the most direct and domineering way.

The Jiuzhou Cauldron roared and roared incessantly.

After eating his fill again, the luck in the Jiuzhou Cauldron surged and gathered, almost gathering together all the thirty-six tribes in the Western Regions, filling it to nearly 90%, but suddenly it stopped moving.

Li Guanyi frowned slightly.

...It seems that there are still some problems.

Did some of them not come, or were there internal contradictions and conflicts, or were some of the Khans imprisoned?

At this moment, the high priest began to repair the altar. The kings trembled and dared not say anything again. The national destiny and luck that they carried were all suppressed, so at this moment they only felt that the young general sitting there was like a crouching tiger, overlooking the world.

My heart was trembling with fear.

Only Li Guanyi closed his eyes and suppressed this matter for the time being. In his heart, the Jiuzhou Ding, which was almost full, began to roar.

Li Guanyi sensed a strong humanitarian aura.

Then, with the help of the Jiuzhou Ding which was almost full at this moment, he locked onto a breath from a very distant place.

At the same time, thousands of miles away, in Anxi City, the Nine-Colored Divine Deer who was resting quietly suddenly felt someone calling her. She raised her head abruptly, looked around, and her ears shook.

She asked smartly: "Hmm?"

"who is it?"

Li Guanyi said in a voice: "It's me, Li Guanyi."

The Nine-Colored Divine Deer was stunned, then asked in a gentle voice, "It's you. You are now very far into the Western Regions. Do you need me to help you with anything?"

Li Guanyi said: "Yeah, yes."

He held the halberd in his hand and sat in the position for offering sacrifices to the gods. His battle robe swayed slightly in the cold and vast wind of the Western Regions. He looked at the Western Regions army that was under guard and saw the kings wearing sacrificial costumes and crawling in front of him.

too weak.

Li Guanyi thought to himself that after seeing Yuwen Lie's Tiger Cavalry's maneuvering tactics and the Wolf King's domineering style, the aristocratic cavalry of so-called noble blood in the rear of the Western Regions could not cause any ripples in his heart.

People like this are not his target.

Wolf King, Yuwen Lie, Jiang Wanxiang.

Even that Jiang Su.

He is the real opponent worthy of fighting.

This army traveled thousands of miles, penetrated deep into the enemy territory alone, and defeated the enemy generals, all for the sake of a fair fight with the Wolf King.

When Li Guan saw the instruments for offering sacrifices to heaven, he found one with a painting of a nine-colored divine deer. It was quite gorgeous and simple. The high priest once said that this was the oldest instrument, representing the earliest and most sacred legend of the Western Regions.

The Nine-Colored Divine Deer...

Li Guanyi looked away from the divine artifact and answered in his heart:
"I have something that I need you to witness."

The Nine-Colored Divine Deer asked doubtfully, "Witness?"

Li Guanyi hummed and said, "Aren't you the greatest auspicious sign in the Western Regions?"

The Nine-Colored Divine Deer was gentle and modest, and said, "It's just a title that people gave me in the beginning. I can't even protect myself, let alone protect the people on this land. Without power, how can I be called auspicious?"

Li Guanyi chuckled and replied:

"Then allow me to give you a gift today."

"Become a true [Auspicious Sign]."

"Your aura is connected to my Jiuzhou Ding. I will guide you with the luck of Jiuzhou. Nine-Colored Divine Deer, please come here to help me... Just think of it as the agreement I made with you at that time."

Such words clearly contained a certain degree of grace and calmness.

The Nine-Colored Divine Deer was stunned, and then he recalled that at that time Li Guanyi had just established himself in the Western Regions and had become a little bit successful. They had an agreement at that time, and Li Guanyi hoped for the help of the Nine-Colored Divine Deer for the first time, but the Nine-Colored Divine Deer refused.

[It’s just that the Western Regions have been in chaos for a long time, and many heroes have emerged. Although your ability is powerful, it is not the most amazing one.]

[I once swore that I would no longer help the human kingdom. ]

[Unless he is the greatest hero in the Western Regions.]

The Nine-Colored Divine Deer is a natural auspicious sign, but it is stubborn.

It would be fine if he was just being stubborn, but the Nine-Colored Deer was so stubborn that he would never easily forget what he said, so the answer he gave at that time kept rising up in his mind again. He was stubborn at that time, but during this period of time, the Nine-Colored Deer stayed in Anxi City.

She eats and drinks things from Anxi City, and there are little girls who help comb her hair.

Humans have soft and flexible hands, used to comb hair.

It is really an enjoyment that cannot be refused.

I have been eating, drinking and living for free during these months.

Even a natural auspicious sign like the Nine-Colored Divine Deer is no longer so stubborn.

But when I think of the dream of one country under one heaven that Li Guanyi originally talked about, I still feel that he is just a child. The world is so big, from here to there, it is vast and boundless. Even if you ride the fastest horse, it will take a very long time to run.

The Nine-Colored Divine Deer replied gently:
"Okay, I'll come and see the gift you gave me."

"So, how can I help you?"

She still felt that it was Li Guanyi who needed help.

But she still gently agreed to Li Guanyi's so-called "gift" first, and then gave her answer.

The fierce wind from the Western Regions carried the smell of blood and swords. Li Guan said:
"Then please show your auspicious spirit, okay?"

The Nine-Colored Divine Deer thought for a moment and asked seriously, "I haven't done it in a long time."

"How big of auspicious sign do you want?"

Li Guanyi replied: "The biggest."

"As high as the sky."

The Nine-Colored Divine Deer thought about it and said gently, "Okay."

She felt that this child was always calm and did not like to ask for help from others. If he asked like that, it must be because he had encountered something very big and needed her help.

The Nine-Colored Divine Deer felt that he had been eating for free for a long time in Anxi City.

She felt ashamed and had long wanted to repay him.

That's right.

Because he is really a very good child, a young warrior. Although he is not the greatest hero in the Western Regions as mentioned by the Ancient Red Dragon, he is also very good.

As for the ancient red dragon.

The ancient red dragon and the guy from eight hundred years ago have learned bad things, so it's normal for them to talk big.

The Western Regions were already in chaos at this moment, with mixed luck and energy. Even the Nine-Colored Divine Deer could no longer be identified. Although one could sense the luck surging from the distant Juxu Mountain that rose into the sky like a sword, one did not think much about it.

She stood up and emitted nine-colored divine light.

Although this place is extremely far away from the location of Li Guanyi's Jiuzhou Ding's luck, the Nine-Colored Divine Deer firstly flew away directly. Secondly, when she was in the Western Regions, her flying speed would be much faster than in other places.

This is the characteristic of auspiciousness in the Western Regions.

After Li Guanyi determined the positions of the Nine-Colored Divine Deer and the Nine Provinces Cauldron, he looked quietly ahead, breathing in and out, extremely calm. Fan Qing, Qibili, and Ling Pingyang each led a group of people to suppress the captives.

The Archer General stood beside Li Guanyi, holding the top-level Xuanbing-level bow in his hand, which still carried the breath of blood. Next to him was a pile of arrows. The top archers standing on the high ground could almost kill one with one arrow.

The Qiang people were especially frightened when they recognized that this was the sharpshooter general who had defended the city alone back then.

The altar was broken into pieces by Li Guanyi and his men. While everyone was resting, Li Guanyi quietly ran over to pick up the Chixiao Sword and pretended nothing had happened.

The wind in the Western Regions was freezing cold. Li Guanyi looked at the golden men brought by the kings for offering sacrifices to the sky. The materials and shapes of these golden men were different. Some were very delicate, while others were very abstract. Some were made of gold, while others were made of fine iron. Some had qi flowing on them, and some were big, some were small.

The Jiuzhou Ding swallowed up the luck of these kings and no longer looked down on these things.

At this moment, he started to pick his mouth.

Li Guanyi knew that these were all attempts to imitate the story of the Tuyuhun king casting the royal seal three hundred years ago to rebuild the royal court. Li Guanyi put down these golden men, and the kings surrendered. Only Helian Bo lowered his head, gritted his teeth, and there was a gleam of light in his eyes.

Helian Bo guessed that the Khans and Chanyu of various tribes who had not been able to come here had all been defeated and surrendered. The only ones who knew about the affairs of the royal court at this moment were the Khans he had imprisoned and the troops guarding them.

He had previously given secret orders to his confidants who were guarding these people.

If he did not see the bonfire for the sacrifice to the sky and did not receive his order, it meant that something had changed. At that time, he would kill the imprisoned Khans, turn back immediately, and lead the Shatuo army to attack these tribes.

Suddenly a quiet voice asked, "What are you thinking about?"

Helian Bo's expression froze for a moment, and when he noticed that it was Li Guanyi who was asking, he said calmly, "I just feel unwilling to accept this. If you hadn't attacked us from behind, our army wouldn't have had time to prepare. How could we have been defeated so easily by you?"

Li Guanyi was too lazy to refute him.

The Jiuzhou Ding clearly lacks some luck in order to be completely complete.

Plus Helianbo’s special reaction.

It would be strange if Li Guanyi couldn't guess what was wrong.

He just stared at him and asked, "Where are the other kings?" Helian Bo saw that Li Guanyi's troops placed the captured golden men for offering sacrifices to the sky on the altar. At this moment, a circle of golden men were placed around the large altar.

But there are still several missing.

In response to the Khans he imprisoned, Helian Bo asked, "How should I know?"

"Perhaps in their own tribe, perhaps in their own territory."

The silver-haired girl said in a light voice: "He is lying."

Helian Bo's eyes narrowed, and he laughed loudly, saying, "If you want to punish me, you might as well do it directly. It's too easy to ask a little girl like this to give you reasons!" "If you want to kill me so much, you might as well just do it--"

Amid the loud whistling sound, Helian Bo only felt a flash of cold light in front of his eyes and his arm felt cold. The next moment, he saw his arm fly up and fall to the ground, with blood gushing out.

Even a hero like Helian Bo could no longer bear the pain and anger and started shouting.

Li Guan launched a flying air force.

After the bleeding was stopped, Helian Bo collapsed there with a pale face.

Li Guanyi asked: "Where are the remaining kings?"

Helian Bo grinned and laughed loudly: "You ask me? Even if you kill me, I won't tell you. Besides, I don't know anything. If you have the ability, kill me!"

“Come on, come on, Tianger’s kindness, don’t you want it anymore?!”

King Gumo, who was nearby and knew the general situation, couldn't help but admire Helian Bo's heroism, courage, carefulness, and good strategies. He knew that Tianger released those captives and was known for his kindness.

The warlords in the Western Regions were cunning and knew they could take advantage of such hearts.

The next moment, a handful of hot blood poured down on King Gumo's face!

King Gumo's expression was stiff.

The halberd was raised, and the hero just now became a corpse.

Crisp and neat.

King Gumo's heart was beating wildly as he watched Li Guan raise his halberd.

Li Guanyi said: "Okay, I'll satisfy you."

King Gumo: “??!!”

Li Guanyi raised the halberd in his hand and pressed it against King Gumo: "Do you know?"

In King Gumo's sight, the warrior, who was wearing armor covered with marks of sword cuts and whose white robe was stained red with blood, raised the weapon in his hand and looked at him calmly.

Therefore, Tianger's reputation for kindness was joined with cruelty and tyranny at this time.

Not only must we conquer and deal with it with kindness, but we must also use the sword.

In this land, kindness alone is not enough.

King Gumo's view of him became one of awe.

He lowered his head and said:
"I know……"

King Gumo told him everything without holding back. Li Guanyi knew that several kings were imprisoned and there were tens of thousands of troops there. He picked up his weapons and ordered the high priest, "Continue to prepare the altar for the great sacrifice. There are still guests who have not arrived."

Li Guanyi walked out with his weapons in hand, and standing on the holy mountain, he said to the army: "In Anxi City, we have strict rewards and punishments. Since they are willing to surrender to us and have suffered misfortune because of this, then we cannot abandon them."

"What do you think?"

More than 6,000 warriors raised their weapons and shouted: "Fight!!!"

The voice was solemn and majestic. Without hesitation, Li Guan said, "General Wang."

Wang Shunchen took a half step forward, and Li Guanyi said, "You lead an army to guard this place." Wang Shunchen nodded in agreement. Li Guanyi looked at the high priest and said in a gentle voice, "Thank you, high priest, to continue preparing the ceremony of offering sacrifice to the heaven."

The high priest's scalp tingled and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

Li Guanyi led his army down.

The Shatuo leader Helian Bo, who was very famous, dominated the affairs of the royal court, and had even been captured by them, was just killed, making these Khans of the Western Regions silent.

Li Guanyi suddenly understood what the wolf king said to him.

Heroes are to be feared.

Li Guanyi looked at the Khans of the Western Regions who had been shocked at the beginning and were now filled with awe. Suddenly, he understood what the old general meant. The old wolf king was indeed teaching him something.

It’s just that the old wolf king’s teaching method is rough and simple.

It means "teaching by example" in a direct and literal sense.

"What a weird personality..."

Li Guanyi's understanding of the general situation in the world has been further improved. He tightened the reins, with the fighting spirit surging in his heart. Without hesitation, he led the 5,000 cavalrymen who had been assigned to gallop down the mountain to the camp dozens of miles away.

In the Jiuzhou Cauldron, the fortunes of various tribes in the Western Regions were surging.

Only this last one remains——

The kings who were planning to surrender were imprisoned.

The world's general situation is rolling and rolling, and it all depends on this last move.

They galloped all the way, stirring up the flying snow, and soon arrived at the camp. The guards in the camp were arguing. Some of them planned to obey the king's order and kill the Khans, while others wanted to escape.

While they were arguing, they suddenly saw a group of horses and men galloping at high speed in the heavy snow and strong wind. The sound of the horses was as loud as thunder. The Western Region cavalry were shocked and blew on large and slightly curved yak horns. The roar was calm and the Western Region cavalry gathered together.

Li Guanyi rushed forward holding a weapon, the murderous aura of a military strategist surging and gathering like a dragon. He raised the halberd in his hand and looked ahead. The Jiuzhou Ding roared continuously, which represented that the last of the thirty-six tribes of the Western Regions were just ahead.

The Western Region cavalry gathered, and both sides of the Anxi City cavalry sped up. The sound of the war horses was like the muffled sound of thunder. The wind was raging, and the weapons were raised. Li Guanyi's heart was beating as he looked at the camp in front. Saluzi accelerated and suddenly swung out the halberd.

boom! ! ! !

The cavalry general in front was knocked away by him.

Riding the purple divine horse with thunder under its feet, Li Guanyi's heart was surging. He let out a long roar, holding his weapon. The cavalry behind him suddenly accelerated and their energy surged violently. Along with the sound of dragon roars, the pure military spirit gradually emerged, looming.

The golden light began to spread from Li Guanyi and covered the army.

Then it disappeared again.

When the two armies were engaged in battle, at that moment when the murderous aura of weapons rose to the sky, Li Guanyi held the weapon, and the luck that appeared and disappeared several times finally condensed completely. This was the military spirit condensed from rushing thousands of miles and winning dozens of battles.

It's not a Qilin, it's a red dragon.

Instead, a vast aura of a divine dragon appeared, covering the entire corps.

Instead, it was a pure divine dragon, with a vast and ancient golden body, its scales flowing and changing, and carrying a kind of indifferent majesty.

Tear and drill through!
Li Guanyi slashed down suddenly, and the soul of the Shenlong Army raised its head and roared, tearing towards the front. The army was magnificent and the weapons were ruthless. Li Guanyi broke through the blockade in front and arrived at the place where the kings were guarded and imprisoned. One of the real purposes of galloping to the Western Regions was the gathering of the Jiuzhou Ding.

The final link in the alliance of kings.

Right now.

Li Guanyi raised his weapon and chopped forward.

boom! ! ! !

The huge roar almost blew away the unique camp in the Western Regions.

It was extremely violent, and then turned into extreme silence, the movement of the camp gate flying out seemed to slow down, as if you could see the fluttering of the war horse's mane and every movement of the divine horse as it stood up and fell.

The kings imprisoned here trembled, raised their heads, and saw the chains being chopped into pieces and then falling down, the ice on the river being crushed, the divine horses stepping on thunder moving forward, and the generals wearing armor and blood-red robes appeared in front of them who almost thought they were going to be killed.

For a moment, all the Khans fell silent. Looking at the general who suddenly appeared, they were a little confused for a moment. They didn't know how things had changed and how they were going, and they were speechless.

The sky is vast and the wind is cold.

Li Guanyi raised his hand and took off his helmet. His eyes were calm as he said:

"Everyone, are you all right?"

Behind him, the warriors were coming in layers with endless armor and weapons, and the murderous aura was surging. The faces of the Khans of the Yuezhi, Kanjuti, and Dayuan changed. The Khan of the Dayuan recognized this man and said:

"Tianger, why are you here..."

Li Guanyi replied calmly: "I heard that the Shatuo Kingdom was disrespectful to you, and I heard that you were willing to form an alliance with me, so I came here and personally crossed the river to rescue you. I invite you to go to [Juxu Mountain] together to offer sacrifices to the sky."

There is too much information in this sentence.

When the kings saw this brave army, their expressions changed several times, and finally they were filled with a mixture of gratitude for being saved, fear of the enemy's attack, and fear of the reputation of this divine general.

That is not worship, that is not intimacy.

That's the look of a conqueror.

That's awe.

One is with authority, the other with benevolence.

Li Guanyi felt that the Jiuzhou Cauldron roared and was completely complete.

Full and about to overflow.

He led the defeated soldiers and the khans to Mount Juxu. The ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven had been prepared again. Many generals and khans from the Western Regions watched this army come and go calmly, like a tiger hunting in the world.

They defeated the enemy so easily and returned in glory.

At the bottom of the sacrifice area, which is also below Mount Juxu, is a large army from the Western Regions.

Li Guanyi rode his warhorse and climbed up the stairs step by step.

The blood-stained battle robe fluttered in the wind, and the sound of ancient sacrificial chants was distant and ancient.

In front of the altar, many khans danced for the conqueror.

They sang and danced with great enthusiasm.

But the sound of the war horse seemed to hit their hearts, like a war drum. Li Guanyi rode the war horse and reached the highest point among those gazes filled with a mixture of fear, terror, and unwillingness.

The high priest wanted to dress Li Guanyi in the colorful clothes used for Western Region sacrifices. Li Guanyi replied:
"Sacrificial offerings don't have to be so inconvenient."

"Just the military uniform."

He dismounted and said calmly: "Besides, I also have my own sacrifices, so there is no need for you, the Shatuo shaman, to take action." The conqueror's aura was surging, not Li Guanyi's usual gentleness.

What he is doing now is not treating people to a meal, but violent behavior.

It is the most violent act of one side conquering and overthrowing another.

The chief priest of Shatuo State hesitated and asked, "But the sacrificial process is very complicated."

"If we're not careful, mistakes can easily occur. Do you have a candidate?"

Li Guanyi said: "Of course there is."

He dismounted, and Saluzi ran away. Li Guanyi looked to one side and saw a divine horse with a silver-haired girl on its back. So the king from the Central Plains thrust the weapon in his hand into the ground.

"I have my own 'sacrifice'."

"From the past to the present, and from the present to the future, there is only one."

“I can never be replaced.”

The sacred burning incense rose towards the sky. The sky of the Western Region was vast and blue, with distant clouds. The soldiers who had experienced battles stood between heaven and earth with their heads bowed. The prince in ink-colored armor stretched out his hand towards the divine horse.

The silver-haired girl thought about it and placed her hand on the cold gauntlet.

The prince gave a gentle pull, and the girl flew off the divine horse.

The hood fell, revealing her long silver hair, beautiful and sacred against the western sky.

This scene is so beautiful and touching that it is hard to forget.

Li Guanyi pulled Yaoguang and asked the girl to preside over the sacrifice to the sky, while he raised his eyes to look at the sky. There was a faint auspicious light in the clouds.

After all this reorganization, fighting, and back and forth, it was already quite late, and at this time, when the Western Regions’ kings and khans were in awe—

The Nine-Colored Divine Deer is coming!
