She and Dany are sisters, but their relationship is not really good, and Dany often complains that she is too controlling.

Of course, the main reason why Xiludi gave up asking Alsophila and Dany for help was that she wanted Treia to remain independent and no longer be enslaved by anyone. Otherwise, why would she give up her good life in Vistapa and return to Treia?

Nine years have passed since she said goodbye to Alsophila spinulosa, and she has hardly had a peaceful life during these nine years.

When she finally managed to withstand the attacks from the surrounding city-states that were eyeing her covetously, a more terrifying enemy, Vistapa, came again.

"It's a danger, but also an opportunity!"

Xiludi knew very well that if they could repel the army of Vestapa this time, Treia might have real hope.

She put aside her grudges and immediately contacted other surrounding city-states, expressing her willingness to form an alliance to fight against Vistapa.

Even Treia is willing to temporarily put aside its hatred, so other city-states have even less reason not to support this alliance.

But there is a very realistic problem facing all city-states. The army of Vistapa is coming with great momentum. If they want to fight against such a large army, they must gather together, but gathering together takes time. Will the people of Vistapa give them this time?

The terrain south of the Wana River is extremely complex, with dense water networks, many hills and only a small plain. Because of this, dozens of city-states of varying sizes were born here, and true unification was never possible.

But this time the people of Vistapa were extremely well prepared. They had warships, chariots, and a group of elite knights and magicians accompanying them. This allowed them to adapt to most terrains, and it was extremely difficult to delay their progress.

No matter how difficult it is, someone has to do it, otherwise it’s better to surrender early.

In March 389, Vestapal's army successfully crossed the Vana River.

On April 4, Vestapa conquered the first city-state.

On April 4, Vistapa conquered the second city-state.

On April 4, the southern city-states sent envoys to each other, formed an alliance, and agreed to fight against Vistapa together, but just four days later, another city-state surrendered to Vistapa.

For the southern city-states, bad news almost never stopped coming, but for Gulanqi, such a smooth war finally allowed him to see the day when he would surpass Eldino.

"Look, old man. This is the future I created. It's not a sin for me to kill you. I just want to help Vestapa reach higher heights!"

Most of the depression that had been pent up in his heart for many years was gone, and Gulanqi felt that the food tasted better.

However, not everything went as he expected.

Unless they are at their wits' end, the people of the southern city-states will never surrender easily.

The great future that Gulanqi envisioned was a naked invasion for the people living in these city-states.

No matter how much you brag about your Guiyi Sect, what does it have to do with us?

You agree that Vitis is the only God in the world, but we don't.

The Sun King trampled on the beliefs of others and eventually died suddenly. You, the people of Vistapa, will be punished by God sooner or later!

In late April, when the army of Vistapa finally approached the city-state of Treia, Xiludi resolutely decided to lead his troops out to intercept them and delay time for the coalition forces to assemble.

The enemy army has magicians who are good at long-range attacks, so being trapped in an isolated city means turning yourself and the civilians in the city into targets. Only by staying in a strategic location will you have a chance of survival.

The battlefield chosen by Xiludi was adjacent to a fast-flowing river, and there were steep mountains on the river bank. Except for some powerful bloodline warriors, no one could pass through it easily.

With the advantage of geographical location, she could defend against attacks from an army dozens of times her size with a smaller number of people.

However, this road is not a one-way street. The Vestapa army can still take a detour and attack Treia from other directions. But as long as they take a detour, Xiludi's plan to delay time will be successful.

The only question now is, can she really rely on her geographical advantage to stop the attack of Vistapa's army?

Xiludi had no idea, and neither did the people who followed her to the battle, but they still had to go.

With Treya right behind them, they have nowhere to retreat!

The soldiers who followed Xiludi into the battle this time were all married and had children. The reason why young soldiers were not chosen was because they were afraid that if they died in battle, the entire family would be extinct.

When going to the war, the soldiers and their families said goodbye to each other reluctantly. They did not say too many sentimental words, but only asked their wives to find a good man to remarry if they died in the battle, and to raise their children well so that they could become the pillars of Treia in the future.

Treia is a martial city-state, and bloodiness is engraved in the bones of Treyan people.

The warriors of Treya set out to stop the army of Vistapa with infinite attachment to their hometown.

Such an action is both crazy and rational.

The alliance of the southern city-states was ultimately just a loose alliance, with dozens of city-states gathered together. Although the overall goal was to drive out the Vistapa people, each of them had its own little ideas.

As the news of Treya's expedition came, these little thoughts finally dissipated.

The Treyans were willing to make themselves a bridgehead against the attack of the Vistapa people, so naturally there was nothing to argue about and they just sent their troops.

But how to send troops?

Should they gather together and have a fair fight with the Vistapa people, or think of other ways?

At first, the alliance members didn't have much of a solution, but as time went on, everything changed.

To everyone's surprise, the Treians, led by Xiludi, achieved shocking results.

Faced with enemies that were dozens of times their number, they fought to the death. Several times, the Vistapa people had already reached the mountain, but Xiludi ignored the danger and rushed into the enemy alone, brandishing swords and guns.

Blood dyed the mountains and rivers red, and blood shaped the reputation of the magic swordsmanship.

No matter whether they are ordinary soldiers, bloodline warriors, or magicians, they cannot shake Xiludi's body.

In that mountain area, in that small river, and in the eyes of countless Vistapa people, a figure soaked in blood was forever engraved.

Even though his swords and spears were broken, and even though he was covered with wounds, Xiludi never retreated a single step.

It turns out that Master Sword Princess's eldest disciple is so powerful. How terrifying must Master Sword Princess herself be?

The Vistapa people were shocked.

Unfortunately, the gap in numbers was still too big. No matter how hard Xiludi tried, the number of her compatriots behind her was getting smaller and smaller, and defeat seemed to be only a matter of time.

Gulanqi was furious when he received the news.

He hated Xiludi for not accepting his kindness, and he also hated that the army on the front line was blocked by a few hundred people for ten days.

If it takes ten days here and ten days there, how long will it take you to completely conquer the southern city-states?

On the other hand, after the alliance received the news, the governor of the Red Pine City-State proposed a bold plan. He thought that instead of going to aid Treia, it would be better to go around the rear of the Vistapa army and cut off the supply route of the Vistapa army while the Vistapa army's attention was all on Treia.

"Can you still hold on?"

"how many days?"

"It will take at least five days."

Faced with the answer given by the envoy sent by the alliance, Xiludi remained silent, but finally she agreed.

Compared with a head-on battle, the chance of success in intercepting the food supply route is indeed higher.

The next five days were the most difficult five days of her life. She was buried under corpses at one point. She was so tired that she had hallucinations several times. Just when she thought she was going to die, the Vestapa army left like a receding tide.

The plan was successful, but there were only twelve wounded people left around her.

Xiludi didn't know whether she should be sad or happy.

There is no doubt that this war was the turning point of the entire campaign, a battle that should have ended quickly was dragged into a seven-year tug-of-war.

Because the food supply was cut off, Vistapa's army had to retreat.

During the hasty retreat, the coalition forces used a large number of small boats to attack Vistapa's fleet. This battle did not destroy too many Vistapa troops, but burned a large number of ships.

The army of Vistapa had to suspend its attack and instead seek food locally, a move that angered the city-states that had already surrendered.

The army of Vistapa had enough to eat, but they were directly starving.

I'm going to die anyway, so I might as well die on the way to resisting Vestappa!

A riot made the situation of Vistapa's southern expeditionary army even worse. Gulanchi at home had no time to get angry. He urgently requisitioned ships across the country, and it took a month to finally reopen the road to the south.

However, as the war had reached this point, the southern city-states did not dare to surrender rashly, for fear that once they surrendered, they would become the granary of the Vestapa army.

The Vestapa army could only grit their teeth and push forward inch by inch of land.

The next seven years were seven years of extreme mental instability for Guranchi.

He has placed all his hopes on the Southern Expedition. His sensitive heart will not allow him to withdraw. In order to win this battle, he can only keep adding fuel to the fire.

He tried to ask Alsophila to persuade Xiludi to surrender, but how could Alsophila do that? He could only leave in anger.

He imposed heavy taxes to raise military funds, and in order to gain more support, he allowed members of Congress to recruit a certain number of soldiers based on their wealth and send these soldiers to the southern battlefield.

After trying every possible way to collect money and recruit soldiers, the Vistapa army finally occupied more land despite the constant harassment from the coalition forces of the southern city-states. Even the fearless Treyan people had to temporarily abandon their city and retreat to the rear.

The situation gradually improved, and Gulanqi breathed a sigh of relief. He only hated himself for not killing Xiludi earlier, otherwise why would things have come to this?

But he didn't relax for too long, as bad news suddenly came -

The Ocean Alliance has rebelled!

Gulanqi rushed to quell the rebellion in person.

To make matters worse, just as he defeated the Maritime Alliance, news came from the northwest of the kingdom that those barbarians who refused to submit to Eldino had returned. They took advantage of the chaos to plunder Vistapa and killed many civilians.

Gulanqi was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

He began to suspect that this was retribution for murdering his own father, otherwise why would so many things happen at the same time?

It must be the ghost of Eldino that is lingering around and cursing him!

In a panic, Gulanqi worshipped Eldino directly in the army. He begged Eldino to forgive him for what he had done and said that he was helpless. After all, if the throne really returned to the Nefa family, their Lucan family would be killed without a burial place.

After the worship, Gulanqi immediately led his army back to Vistapa.

After a rest, he first secretly killed Yusofa Nefa, who was living in Vistapa, to prevent anyone from causing trouble in Yusofa's name, and then sent troops to attack the barbarians.

The attack on the barbarians was relatively successful, and Gulanqi achieved impressive results. He thought that this was probably because the curse was lifted after he admitted his mistake to Eldino.

It just didn't last long.

When the barbarians were driven away and another city-state fell in the south, a rebellion broke out in the Kingdom of Vistapa!

A group of peasants killed the tax collectors and local nobles, colluded with slaves, and attempted to attack Jiliu Pass.

What does it mean that there are fires everywhere?

Gulanqi was furious and he smashed Eldino's spirit tablet to pieces.

Old thing, I have admitted my mistake, but you still won't let me go. I think you are just jealous of me and afraid that I will achieve something that surpasses you. Die, die, die, I will make your soul disappear completely!

He once again personally led the troops to quell the rebellion. As a modern-day god of war, he once again easily put down the rebellion.

But even someone as furious as Gu Ranqi could see that this couldn't go on.

While he secretly used evil magic to curse Eldino in an attempt to suppress Eldino's resentment, he personally went to the south and decided to make one last attempt.

It would be best if we could decide the outcome in one battle, but if not, we can only withdraw our troops temporarily.

The results were unsatisfactory.

The war has been going on for so long that he can no longer change the situation by going to the front line in person.

Even on the way back, the boat he was on was attacked and he accidentally fell into the water.

At that moment, Gulanqi, who could not swim, truly felt the fragility of life. Death was only one step away from him. In his dream, he saw the world after death.

Fortunately, people nearby arrived in time and pulled him out of the water, so he did not die.

But, death, how terrible it is!

Gulanqi was in a state of confusion.

It wasn't supposed to be like this.

It's not him who's wrong!

It was Eldino who was not at peace even after his death, it was Syludhi who destroyed his hegemony, and it was Sword Lady who cultivated Syludhi!

If Sword Princess was willing to help him persuade Xiludi to surrender, how could things turn out like this today?

Gulanqi had a nightmare.

In his dream, he met Eldino, whom he had killed.

Eldino sat upright on the bed, looking at him with a half-smile.

He sharply asked Eldino why he kept targeting him.

"When you were alive, you always picked on my little problems on purpose. You either scolded me in public or punished me by making me copy this and that. I also have my dignity!"
