Dynasty Call: Low-key Struggle for Hegemony

At the same time that Yunhan Gorge was fighting, Aoki City was also undergoing changes.

King Yu's generals Luo Shouren, Tang Mu and Beiming Cangtuo led a total of 500,000 troops to guard Qingmu City.

On the city wall, Tang Mu, who was dressed in white, had a hint of worry in his deep eyes. There had been no movement in Huanqing City in the past few days, which gave Tang Mu a bad feeling in his heart.

I wonder what's going on with His Highness?

Tang Mu turned his head and looked to the southeast in the direction of Yunhan Gorge, showing deep worry.

Maybe they should have withdrawn first.

Heavy footsteps sounded behind him, and a tall figure came to Tang Mu's side.

It was Luo Shouren.

"General Luo, how is the situation in Huanqing City?"

As soon as Luo Shouren arrived, Tang Mu couldn't wait to ask.

"I have sent General Wei to investigate near Huanqing City."

Luo Shouren looked at the sky and estimated the time.

In a dense forest thirty miles away from Huanqing City, a group of people were waiting quietly. Just as everyone was bored, a quiet voice sounded.

But the person here is not a highly cultivated person, so he can naturally hear it clearly.

"Master Xu, what are we doing here?"

As Fan Ruanchi opened his mouth, most people in the dense forest looked in the direction of Xu Chu and Fan Ruanchi, but out of the corner of their eyes, they looked at Xun Yu who looked indifferent in the center.

Li Mu, Xu Chu, Guan Sheng, Liu Qingquan, Liu Chenfeng, the fourth ancestor of the Fan family Fan Zhiliang, Fan Jianqiang, Fan Ruanchi, Leng Tao, Song Zhi and other powerful people above the Tianwu realm in Huanqing City are all here.

But except for Li Mu, Xu Chu, and Guan Sheng, no one else knew why they came here. They all followed Xun Yu's orders and came here suddenly.

So even the two venerables Liu Qingquan and Liu Chenfeng didn't know, let alone Fan Zhiliang and the others.

"We are waiting for someone." Xu Chu folded his arms, raised his head, and squinted his eyes slightly, showing an unpredictable expression.

"Waiting for someone? Who are you waiting for?" Fan Ruanchi's eyes flashed when he saw Xu Chu's appearance, and he quickly walked up to Xu Chu and asked with an expression of "You are so interested, I am so admired."

Xu Chu enjoyed Fan Ruanchi's attitude and looked proud. Just when he was about to speak, Guan Sheng coughed lightly.

Xu Chu suddenly woke up and looked at Xun Yu cautiously. Sure enough, Xun Yu was looking at him with a smile.

Xu Chu's body trembled, he held his head high and said in a deep voice:

"You will know what you should know."

Fan Ruanchi tensed up, stood at attention and raised his head, his eyes as firm as steel: "As expected of Mr. Xu, Xiaosheng has learned a lesson."

Everyone's eyes had already turned back, and everyone was looking straight at him with a correct attitude.

"Drive!" "Drive!"

Just as everyone continued to be silent, a cavalry team came quickly from a distance.

It was Wei Wentong who arrived with a cavalry force.

Everyone's eyes narrowed slightly, this was the cavalry sent by Aoki City.

Could it be related to Master Xun sending them here?

Or is Qingmu City preparing to attack Huanqing City?

When everyone was having all kinds of doubts, Wei Wentong had already arrived at the agreed place, just below them. Wei Wentong waved his arms, and the cavalry quickly stopped.

Suddenly, Wei Wentong, who was at the peak of the Heavenly Martial Realm, became powerful, and the cavalry who followed him were stunned.

The thirty-two cavalrymen did not react at all and fainted.

Seeing this, Xun Yu's eyes flashed and he walked out with a smile.

Xu Chu and Guan Shengyi followed closely behind.

At this moment, everyone's eyes were moving. How could they not understand that Wei Wentong was one of them, so they walked out silently.

"Greetings to Master Xun!"

Wei Wentong watched Xun Yu walk out of the dense forest, dismounted from his horse and prayed.

"General Wei, please wake up quickly!"

Xun Yu stepped over to stop Wei Wentong from saluting, but said solemnly: "Thank you for your hard work, General Wei."

"General Wei, I have long admired your name!"

Xu Chu and Guan Sheng clasped their hands and looked at Wei Wentong sincerely.

"Meet you all!"

Wei Wentong smiled and returned the favor with his hands clasped in fists.

Afterwards, Wei Wentong glanced at the unconscious cavalrymen behind him and said with a hint of guilt:

"These soldiers have been following me, but I was not sure if there were any of them who were worthy of the king, so I stunned them all. When they wake up, everything should be over."

"Don't worry, General Wei. This time we will take down Qingmu City without any blood. Nothing will happen to them and the soldiers in Qingmu City." Xun Yu assured.

Behind him, Li Mu, Liu Qingquan, Liu Chenfeng, Fan Jianqiang, Fan Zhiliang, Fan Ruanchi and others walked out one after another, exactly thirty, plus Xu Chu and Guan Sheng, exactly thirty-two.

"Everyone, this is General Wei who was sent by His Highness to lurk under King Yu. Today is the day when we defeat Qingmu City!" Xun Yu introduced to everyone.

"Meet General Wei!"

Leng Tao, Song Zhi and other generals solemnly bowed their hands.

"This time I can finally fight side by side with all my colleagues." Wei Wentong returned the favor with an excited look on his face.

Everyone was touched in their hearts, looked at Wei Wentong with even more respect, and nodded heavily.

After seeing everyone getting acquainted with Wei Wentong, Xun Yu said:

"Everyone, you will follow Wei Wentong into Aoki City later. After entering Aoki City, take the lead in controlling the top management of Aoki City."

Everyone looked solemn and listened carefully to Xun Yu's instructions.

"Xu Chu, Sect Leader Liu, Elder Liu, and Leng Tao, after you enter Qingmu City, follow General Wei to control Tang Mu, Luo Shouren and other generals."

"yes!"

Xu Chu and Liu Qingquan nodded.

Xun Yu nodded slightly, then looked at Fan Jianqiang.

Fan Jianqiang held his head high and waited for Xun Yu's order.

However, Fan Ruanchi stood up on the side. Fan Ruanchi did not have a playful smile at this moment, but was unprecedentedly serious. He asked Xun Yu for his orders:

"Lord Xun, can you call us the Fan family forces in Cyanwood City? We promise to make the Fan family forces in Cyanwood City surrender to His Highness!"

Xun Yu smiled inwardly and looked at Fan Ruanchi with admiration. This little guy was indeed very clever.

"Okay, I'll leave the Fan family to you. You can tell the Fan family that Li Yao's plan has been seen through by His Highness, and Yunhanxia and the others will definitely be defeated."

"yes!"

Fan Ruanchi replied immediately, but his pupils narrowed slightly.

Li Yao?

Yao Huang!

Not only him, but also Liu Qingquan, Song Zhi and others were shocked when they heard Li Yao's name.

Didn't Emperor Yao fall into a coma?

It seems that the battle of Yunhan Gorge is unimaginably complicated.

"His Highness has already left for the battle of Yunhan Gorge, and our mission is to capture Aoki City and ensure a safe victory in the battle."

Xun Yu continued to give instructions: "Mr. Li, Guan Sheng, and Song Zhi, please cooperate with Lu Junyi and Song Jiang to deal with Beiming Cangtuo."

Fan Zhiliang, Fan Ruanchi, Leng Tao, Song Zhi and others' pupils shrank again and they swallowed.

Qingmu City Lu Junyi, Song Jiang?

Everyone respected Li Yuan even more now. His Highness's methods were truly terrifying.

……………………

Soon everyone changed their clothes and armor and followed Wei Wentong on their horses towards Qingmu City.

Xun Yu, who was standing in the middle, looked at the cavalrymen lying down in various directions and waved his hand.

Suddenly, the leaves of the surrounding dense forest trembled slightly, and a series of netted figures shot out...

Bang! Bang! Bang!

With dust flying all the way, Wei Wentong and his party quickly returned to the gate of Qingmu City.

"Drive!" "Drive!"

"Open the city gate!" Wei Wentong shouted as he kept running.

Behind him, Li Mu, Xu Chu, Guan Sheng, Liu Qingquan, Liu Chenfeng, Fan Zhiliang, Fan Jianqiang, Fan Ruanchi, Leng Tao and others lowered their heads one by one, their faces blocked by their helmets, and they clenched their hands calmly. Weapons, they did not stop, followed Wei Wentong and rushed to the city gate.

"drive!"

"It's General Wei and the others, open the city gate quickly!"

When the city gate guard saw Wei Wentong returning, he opened the city gate without any precautions and let the cavalry enter.

Boom!

Everyone filed in and entered the city gate easily. When they entered, the city gate quickly closed, and a ripple gradually appeared on the transparent wall covering the entire Aoki City.

The defensive array in Aoki City is always open.

If King Yu loses in Yunhan Gorge, Qingmu City will be one of King Yu's retreats.

"Go and inform Mr. Tang and General Luo that I have something important to report."

After Wei Wentong returned to the military camp, he immediately gave instructions to the deputy general who came to greet him.

"yes!"

When the deputy general of the military camp heard the order, he turned around and left without even looking at Xu Chu and Guan Sheng.

Half an hour later, in the lobby of Prince Yu's Mansion, Tang Mu, Luo Shouren and important generals in the city gathered together, waiting for news that Wei Wentong had returned from investigating the situation.

Soon, Wei Wentong led Xu Chu, Liu Qingquan, and Liu Chenfeng into the hall where there was no venerable...

In the other direction of Aoki City, in the Fan family's power lobby, Fan Peng, Fan He, Fan Xuexi and the second ancestor of the Fan family were sitting quietly in the lobby. Their faces were solemn and their eyes were shining, waiting for the battle in Yunhan Gorge and Li Yao's victory. victory.

Yes, they knew that the real man behind the imperial court was Li Yao, that's why they turned to the eldest princess so easily.

"Hey, these three are the future of the Fan family. Why do you look so solemn?"

Suddenly a frivolous voice came into the lobby.

Hearing this voice, the four people in the lobby frowned.

"Who is so presumptuous!" Fan Peng got angry, stood up and glared outside the lobby. He wanted to see who dared to come here to act wild!

Fan He and Fan Xuexi looked at each other and frowned slightly.

Why does this familiar voice sound so much like that shameless member of the family?

However, the moment Fan Ruanchi's smiling figure stepped into the lobby, Fan He and Fan Xuexi also stood up suddenly. Sure enough, it was him!

"How come it's you who is the freeloader!"

Fan Peng, who was the first to speak out, saw Fan Ruanchi. His anger disappeared instantly, but he screamed in shock.

"Hey, are you surprised or not? I'm not surprised!"

Fan Ruanchi walked in coquettishly, waving his jade fan and enjoying the shocked look of the three of them.

"Ruan Chi, how did you get in!" Fan He said with a serious face. His heart was heavier than what he expressed on his face. King Chu's people actually appeared in Qingmu City openly. What kind of situation is this!

"Actually, the guards did not let me in when I first entered the mansion, but I am from the Fan family. When I took out the Fan family token, I walked in." Fan Ruanchi said proudly.

Fan Xuexi looked at Fan Ruanchi who still looked careless, her face turned cold, and she said angrily: "Who asked you how you entered Fan Mansion? I asked you how you entered Qingmu City? Where are the Fourth Ancestor, Fan Jianqiang and the others? ?”

"Of course the fourth ancestor is here too."

As soon as Fan Ruanchi finished speaking, Fan Sizu and Fan Jianqiang stepped into the lobby.

Everyone's expressions changed. Even the slow Fan Peng knew something was wrong when he saw the two of them appearing in front of them.

"Fourth brother, why are you here?"

The Second Ancestor Fan's body suddenly shook and he stared at the Fourth Ancestor Fan.

"Second brother, surrender. Only the King of Chu can make the right choice for our Fan family." Fan Sizu looked at Fan Erzu and said solemnly. When he mentioned Li Yuan's name, his tone was extremely respectful and his expression was full of emotion.

It is an honor and a peace of mind to follow the wise and powerful King of Chu.

Is there anyone in this world who can defeat King Chu?

Fan Jianqiang said with a solemn expression: "His Highness has seen through the ambush in Yunhan Gorge and Emperor Yao's plan. Emperor Yao will definitely be defeated. I hope you will not let the Fan family go to the road of destruction."

Fan He and Fan Xuexi's expressions changed drastically, showing signs of panic for the first time. How did they know about Emperor Yao's plan?

Fan Jianqiang continued: "If you don't believe it, you can stay here quietly, don't interfere, and see if Qingmu City will change hands tonight."

Fan Ruanchi on the side raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "There will be no good results in waiting. I suggest that you should join us to help His Royal Highness King Chu capture Qingmu City."

Fan He and Fan Xuexi frowned. They were judging whether Fan Jianqiang's words were credible.

"Second brother, active cooperation and passive acceptance are two different attitudes. Although a few of us in the Fan family chose King Chu, there are many powerful forces in Zhongzhou, and you were once opponents. When King Chu wins, we will have no advantage. "Fan Sizu also persuaded.

Second Patriarch Fan's eyes flickered and he looked at Fourth Patriarch Fan and said, "Are you sure King Chu can win?

If Emperor Yao wins, our Fan family will lose a good opportunity, and we will still have room for success. "

"If King Chu wins, the Fan family will not suffer any losses if they are strong enough." Fan He sighed with a sigh in his eyes, and his heart was already leaning towards King Chu winning.

The Fan family has always been hedging its bets, so why change it now?

"Let's continue to stay here, be strong, Ruan Chi, the Fan family will rely on you from now on." Fan Xuexi also said.

"Then you stay here and don't move. I will help Venerable Li deal with Beiming Cangtuo." Seeing that the three of them had made their decision, Fan Sizu nodded.

"good!"

Fan Erzu nodded, Fan He and Fan Xuexi smiled and nodded.

"Okay, then you can cooperate with me and my brother to control the Fan family's power in Aoki City." Fan Ruanchi said helplessly.

Li Mu and Guan Sheng came to Songjiang Courtyard.

In the courtyard, Lu Junyi, Song Jiang, Guan Sheng, Lu Zhishen, Yang Zhi, and Yan Qing were speechless, and a strange atmosphere enveloped the room.

Li Mu looked at these six people and felt an awkward atmosphere.

The six people seemed to know each other, but why was the atmosphere so strange?

At this moment, the courtyard door suddenly opened, and Beiming Shaochen stepped into the courtyard with two Tianwu elders.

"I heard that Mr. Lu is here, I took the liberty of looking for him..."

Beiming Shaochen's smiling tone suddenly stopped! (End of chapter)
