Chapter 678 - 668: Divine Means!
Chapter 678: Chapter 668: Divine Means!
Chen Xiao thought to himself, "This isn’t good."
He had reached an agreement with Su Miaoyin, but in the end, he ended up getting involved with her master instead.
This ridiculous plot... how to explain this?
Su Miaoyin smiled slightly, "Young Master Chen, what were you discussing with my master for so long?"
Her charming face leaned closer to Chen Xiao, her fragrance enveloping his face.
Chen Xiao answered calmly, "I was just discussing some matters with Palace Master Chu that hadn’t been fully settled yet."
"Oh, really?" Su Miaoyin’s fox-like eyes narrowed slyly, "Then why does Young Master Chen have a special scent from my master and what about the marks on your neck?"
"Young Master Chen, you are impressive indeed. I reached an agreement with you, yet you bypassed me and reached an agreement with my master, is that right?"
"This twist is truly unexpected for Miaoyin."
Her tone contained both accusation and anger, but more than that, it was filled with grievance. She really hadn’t expected that the one who ’stole’ from her family would be her own master!
How could such a dignified person like her master do such a thing?
Seeing that the situation was exposed, Chen Xiao no longer concealed it and instead spoke calmly, "I saved Miaoqu Palace, and Palace Master Chu thought highly of me and wanted to become my Dao partner. Is that so strange? As a disciple, shouldn’t you not be meddling in such matters?"
"It’s not strange." Su Miaoyin licked her red lips, "I’m just curious, what abilities does Young Master Chen have to make even my master, who has a clear heart and few desires, infatuated with you... why not, while Young Master Chen is here, let Miaoyin also experience your charm?"
Chen Xiao said flatly, "Not feeling well, decline."
"Haha, I heard it just now, it was my master who first begged for mercy." Su Miaoyin chuckled softly, finding Chen Xiao’s excuse highly unsatisfactory.
Chen Xiao: "..."
Is Su Miaoyin a bit unhinged?
She even eavesdropped?
Su Miaoyin leaned closer to Chen Xiao, smiling charmingly, "Young Master Chen, when we meet again, I’ll definitely devour you!"
With that, she licked Chen Xiao’s earlobe with her little tongue.
Chen Xiao shivered all over, his blood boiling from her teasing.
Then Su Miaoyin’s bell-like laughter gradually faded away, and her graceful figure left as well.
Damn it, when I return, I’ll take you down. Let’s see if you dare to be so arrogant then!
Anyway, he’s now Chu Lisu’s Dao partner; he really doesn’t believe Su Miaoyin would dare do anything to him. Without this worry, that fox spirit definitely won’t escape.
Seduce him, sooner or later she’ll have to pay the price.
Coincidentally, he also wanted to experience what was so special about the legendary Fox Clan with their innate seductive bones.
Chen Xiao took a deep breath and left the Xuantian Sect.
Then, he quickly headed to White Emperor City and boarded the Spiritual Ship, heading straight for Tianze City. Two days later, he arrived near the inter-realm passageway from Tianze City to Tianyuan City.
Upon entering the passageways, the Gatekeepers had a slight change in expression when they saw Chen Xiao.
They recognized Chen Xiao!
After all, although they guarded the passageway.
In reality, those traveling between realms were very few!
And both Chen Wushuang and Chen Xiao left a profound impression on them!
Moreover, when Chen Xiao first entered Kunlun, he was an unassuming little weakling, but now, even those Gatekeepers at the Heavenly Realm level could feel a strong oppressive aura coming from him, causing them to feel alarmed!
And remembering the mysterious expert who had accompanied Chen Xiao before, they dared not offend him at all.
Finally, a Gatekeeper of the Heavenly Realm stepped forward and asked respectfully, "Does the young master wish to go to the secular world?"
"Yes." Chen Xiao said flatly, "What are the conditions?"
"No conditions! No conditions!" The Gatekeeper shook his head repeatedly, shouting to his subordinates, "What are you standing around for? Quickly, let the young master through!"
When these words fell, the gate of the inter-realm passageway opened accordingly.
"Thanks." Chen Xiao said lightly, and then in a flash, he entered the passageway. After a whirl, his body appeared outside the secular Kunlun Mountains.
"Finally back!!" Chen Xiao took a deep breath.
Although he stayed in the Kunlun Realm for only a month or two, it felt like a lifetime ago.
The air of the secular world was different from that of the Kunlun Realm!
Although the air in the Kunlun Realm was better, it was filled with slaughter and deceit, making lives worthless in such a Martial Dao dominant environment!
In contrast, in the secular world, there were various constraints of rules, making it relatively stable.
He traveled east from the Kunlun Mountains.
But soon, he noticed something amiss.
Along the way, there were many signs of battle, not just any battle, but rather traces left by hot weapons!
It was clear, a small-scale skirmish had occurred in this area.
A look of shock appeared on his face, "This is within the borders, how could such a conflict occur?"
There were even traces showing this area had been rolled over by tanks.
He continued forward and soon spotted a large group of Shen Zhou Warriors.
From these warriors, he also learned about the current situation.
It turned out, half a month ago, the Northwest Nine Countries suddenly launched an assault under false accusations, deploying a million-strong army to invade. Currently, the War Department is making a concerted effort to resist the invading forces.
From the words of these warriors, Chen Xiao also learned about the situation of the commander, Tang Hengdao.
He was currently trapped at the frontier.
With fewer than ten thousand troops at his side.
And upon learning the location of Tang Hengdao, a core of the War Department, the allied forces of the Northwest Nine Countries immediately deployed a hundred thousand troops to encircle him at Hulaoguan!
"Brother Tang?!" Chen Xiao slightly narrowed his eyes. Such a significant matter was typically beyond his concern, but Tang Hengdao had a deep bond with him and had helped him multiple times.
Therefore, he couldn’t sit idly by when the other was in trouble.
"Where is Brother Tang now?!"
"At Hulaoguan," a weary warrior replied.
"Point me in the direction," Chen Xiao said again.
"From here, head northwest for about a hundred kilometers, and you’ll see Hulaoguan."
Upon receiving this news, Chen Xiao didn’t hesitate at all. His figure flickered and disappeared from sight, directly soaring into the air, heading straight for Hulaoguan!
The many warriors who witnessed this scene were dumbfounded one by one.
Were they seeing things or dreaming?
This young man actually flew away in front of their eyes?
In the blink of an eye, Chen Xiao’s figure had completely vanished before them!
——
At the same time.
Northwest, the desert, Hulaoguan!
The yellow sand filled the sky.
One after another, tanks, heavy armor cars, and heavy weaponry appeared in the desert.
A mighty army of a hundred thousand men approached Hulaoguan.
In front of this hundred thousand strong army, there were nine banners, clearly marking the elite troops of the Nine Countries’ Alliance Army!
On the city wall, a tall and burly figure stood quietly, overlooking the rushing army from all directions. A glint of cold determination flickered in his eyes, but more was a sense of powerlessness...
After ten days of combat, the direct lineage under Tang Hengdao was almost out of ammunition and food. Now, with such a disparity in forces, there was no chance of victory!
Yet, even so, the soldiers beside Tang Hengdao still showed fierce and unyielding eyes, staring hard at the Nine Countries’ Alliance Army.
"Tang Zhanwang, let’s fight them to the end!" an adjutant gritted his teeth and said, "Even if we die, we’ll make them pay dearly!"
Who among them hadn’t fought through layers of corpses and sea of blood?
Even faced with such a situation, they were not afraid of death!
Because they represented the spine of the Divine Land!
They couldn’t retreat even half a step.
Tang Hengdao took a deep breath, "Defend the city, don’t act recklessly, wait for reinforcements."
He too wanted a grand battle, couldn’t wait to extinguish these invaders to quell his anger! But he was very aware that this was unrealistic!
Now, the most important thing was to preserve strength, otherwise, casualties would only increase in vain!
Hearing Tang Hengdao’s words, the soldiers had unwilling faces, but they had nothing to say.
Because they understood clearly that Tang Hengdao’s decision was correct.
They were not afraid of death, but they couldn’t die needlessly!
They couldn’t make unnecessary sacrifices!
"Boom—" Countless war chariots and tanks continued to crush the yellow sand.
Imposing, like a rainbow!
At the very forefront of the hundred thousand strong army was a man with a hooked nose, his eyes fierce and his expression smug.
This man’s name was Heidro.
He had been an old adversary of Tang Hengdao for many years.
Tang Hengdao had suppressed the border for many years, often having disputes with this man’s subordinate forces.
However, each time, Tang Hengdao emerged victorious.
And also because of this, Heidro was both jealous and resentful of Tang Hengdao. Now, he finally had a chance to turn the tables!
This time, serving as the commander of the alliance, he personally led a hundred thousand troops to crush Tang Hengdao.
He did not believe that Tang Hengdao could really escape alive!
"Tang Hengdao, stop resisting stubbornly. I advise you to surrender directly. Hehe, as long as you’re willing to surrender obediently and become our prisoner, I can spare your life! How about it?!"
Heidro’s extremely smug voice came from below.
Tang Hengdao said indifferently, "Do you think the word ’surrender’ exists in my dictionary?"
"Rather be broken, than whole!"
"Hmph, stubborn fool!" Heidro snorted coldly, "Fire! Bomb the city wall! Advance directly! Capture Tang Hengdao alive! Of course, dead is fine too!"
Heidro laughed very sinisterly.
And at this moment!
In the distance, a figure came soaring through the sky, and in the blink of an eye, it had descended over Hulaoguan!
When Tang Hengdao saw this figure, his pupils suddenly trembled!
"Brother Chen?"
Chen Xiao actually walked in the air and came?
What kind of method was this?
Even a Great Grandmaster, known as the Martial Saint of the Human Realm, wouldn’t have this capability, right?
And the sudden appearance of Chen Xiao also left the many soldiers within Hulaoguan and the hundred thousand Nine Countries’ Alliance Army with faces full of intense shock and disbelief!
Chen Xiao slightly smiled and spoke, "Brother Tang, long time no see."
