Volume 10 Chapter 965

Episode 10, Chapter 965

What Peng Jun said was exactly what Nie Zhen was worried about, but Wei Biao beside him became furious, raised his head and pointed angrily at Peng Jun's nose, and asked sternly: "You said that we have important matters to discuss, but you are here to persuade the master to defect. You are so brave, I will destroy you first!"

As he spoke, Wei Biao made a move to draw his sword. Nie Zhen snorted coldly and glared at him fiercely. ([] ) Wei Biao's face was full of confusion. He didn't know what he had done wrong. He looked at Nie Zhen helplessly and dropped the hand that had just grasped the hilt of the sword.

Nie Zhen looked at Peng Jun and asked with a half-smile, "What do you think?"

Peng Jun said seriously: "Now the Holy King stays in the Youdian all day long. It is called seclusion, but it is actually an escape. The important task of guarding the city of God Chi falls on Elder Nie alone. If he can successfully defend the city, it will be the wisdom of the Holy King. , If it fails, then Elder Nie is the big sinner of Shenchi. Is Elder Nie willing to be used by others and not find a way out for himself? "

His words hit the nail on the head. Nie Zhen is not a fool. He has made a detailed analysis of the current situation. According to his own judgment, the chance that he can withstand the first wave of Fengchuan coalition's attack is not more than 50%.

If the Fengchuan coalition forces continue to mobilize troops from their respective countries after the first wave of attacks are frustrated, then Shenchi City may not even have a 10% chance. This is also the main reason why Nie Zhen did not kill Peng Jun immediately after knowing his intentions.

Just as Ziyue said, Nie Zhen's loyalty to Guang Han Ting is false. When Guang Han Ting gains power, he will look after Guang Han Ting and obey his orders. But once Guang Han Ting loses power, then Nie Zhen will Zhen Ye will never accompany him to hell.

After pondering for a moment, Nie Zhen said quietly: "You mean, I should follow the example of Huangfu and the commander and switch sides to the Fengchuan Alliance Army?"

"It's not a defection, it's a crusade against the rebels. It's a joint effort with the family master, Huangfu and other elders to impeach Guang Hanting and end the current precarious situation in Shenchi. The reason why Shenchi is in danger is all because of Guang Hanting. , the Fengchuan coalition did not want to annex Shenchi, but just to punish Guang Hanting. Judging from the current situation, Guang Hanting's collapse is a matter of time. If Elder Nie continues to be loyal to this thief, then in the end Elder Nie will Like Guang Hanting, he will be ruined and become the number one sinner of our Divine Pond from ancient times to the present. On the other hand, Elder Nie will become a hero of our Divine Pond like all the elders. Please think twice before taking action!"

"That's nonsense!" Wei Biao's face turned red and he turned to Nie Zhen and said, "Master, Peng Jun is a eloquent child who confuses right and wrong. You must not be bewitched by him!"

Nie Zhen said nothing, lowered his head, and kept rolling his eyes.

At present, there are still two uncertain factors. First, does the Holy King have any plan to defeat the enemy? Second, the Holy King still has dozens of elders and his disciples outside the city. Will these people give the Fengchuan coalition a fatal blow at a critical moment?

It was really hard for Nie Zhen to make a choice before he fully understood the situation. He thought for a long time and asked seemingly casually: "Peng Jun, what do you mean by your master, Huangfu and other elders for coming here this time?"

"It also means the intention of His Royal Highness Feng Wang and His Highness Prince Sichuan!" Peng Jun nodded and added.

Nie Zhen's heart moved. Judging from this, no matter Fengguo, Sichuanguo, Huangfu, Dongfang and others, they all valued him very much. Thinking of this, a smile appeared on his face, he nodded, shook his head, and said: "Peng Jun, I understand what you mean, but this matter is so important that I have to consider it carefully. You go back to your home first and wait for news from me!”

"Master, Peng Jun has ulterior motives, so you must not let him go!" Wei Biao said urgently.

Wei Biao didn't want to let Peng Jun go, and Peng Jun didn't want to leave yet, at least he didn't want to leave until he got a definite answer from Nie Zhen.

He said seriously: "Elder Nie, time is running out. The Fengchuan coalition forces may launch an attack at any time. Once they do, it will be too late for Elder Nie to regret it..."

Nie Zhen stood up distractedly, waved his hand and said, "I understand, you can go back first! Wei Biao, see off the guests on behalf of the master!"

Seeing Nie Zhen's determined expression, both Wei Biao and Peng Jun looked helpless. Wei Biao walked up to Peng Jun and said in a deep voice with an unkind expression: "Let's go! Do you really want me to invite you out?"

Peng Jun sighed secretly, bowed his hands to Nie Zhen, and then followed Wei Biao out of the lobby.

After the two of them left, Nie Zhen paced back and forth in the lobby distractedly.

Peng Jun definitely cannot be killed. Keeping him is equivalent to leaving a way out for himself. However, he now doesn't understand what Guang Hanting is thinking and what his plans are, so he can't immediately He accepted Peng Jun's advice to surrender.

At this time, Nie Zhen could be said to be indecisive and in a dilemma.

Not long after, Wei Biao came back from outside. After closing the door, he quickly came to Nie Zhen and whispered: "Master, how can you let Peng Jun go? He is the one Dongfang Yehuai placed in the city. Spy, if the Holy King knows about this, how will the master explain it to the Holy King?"

Without thinking, Nie Zhen waved his hand and slapped Wei Biao on the head.

Wei Biao is already a middle-aged man in his forties and the chief disciple of the Great Elder. Who would dare to beat him like this on ordinary days? At this time, he was stunned, his face was blank, he looked at Nie Zhen in confusion, and said blankly: "Master..."

"Are you a fool? Are you so sure that your master can defend Shenchi City? If the city is broken, do you want your master to go into exile with the Holy King, or die with the Holy King?"

"This... Master believes that the Fengchuan coalition will definitely break the city? With the Holy King here, who in the world can break Shenchi City..."

Nie Zhen shook his head repeatedly and said, "No matter how powerful the Holy King is, he is a human, not a god. As long as he is a human, his ability is limited. He can stop 10,000 or even 100,000 enemies, can he also resist millions or tens of millions of enemies? If we don't find a way out for ourselves now, we won't have a chance to find one in the future."

"This...this..." Wei Biao hesitated for a long time and didn't say anything. Nie Zhen glanced at him and said sternly: "Don't mention what happened today to anyone. Also, tell everyone not to tell anyone about Peng Jun's visit today."

"Yes! Master, I understand!"

Nie Zhen murmured with a deep look in his eyes: "Now, there is still one thing that I can't figure out. The Feng Army has arrived at the foot of Shenchi Mountain, but where are the elders who were left by the Holy King to resist the Feng Army? Did they die in battle or hide?"

Wei Biao scratched his head and didn't answer. Nie Zhen didn't know where the elders were, so he didn't know even more.

But soon, Nie Zhen knew the exact whereabouts of the elders.

The next morning, before Nie Zhen got up, his eldest disciple Wei Biao knocked on the door outside. Nie Zhen got up with a gloomy face, opened the door, looked at Wei Biao who was panicking outside, and asked in a deep voice: "What happened that makes you panic?"

"Master, something terrible has happened. I just received news that the elders left by the Holy King to resist the Feng Army have...have already defected to the Feng Army..." Wei Biao bowed and said in a trembling voice.

Nie Zhen felt as if he had been hit by a hammer when he heard this, and his body shook involuntarily. There were dozens of elders left outside the city by Guanghan Ting to resist the Feng Army, almost all the elders in the Elders' Court. They and their disciples were the pillars of the Divine Pool. Now that they have all defected, it is equivalent to causing half of the Divine Pool to collapse in an instant. How can Nie Zhen not be panicked and anxious?

He swallowed his saliva and asked anxiously: "Is this... is this true?"

"It's absolutely true. The spies outside the city have sent back the information one after another! Master, what should we do now?"

Nie Zhen was stunned for a long time before he came to his senses. He stamped his feet fiercely and said repeatedly: "Prepare the horses, prepare the horses quickly, I have to go to see the Holy King immediately!"

Dozens of elders have all defected, and Shenchi City has been completely isolated and helpless. If the Holy King does not come out of seclusion again and cannot come up with a good plan to defeat the enemy, then Shenchi will be doomed.

He returned to the room, quickly put on his clothes, washed up, and then hurried to the Youdian.

Now there is a guard every ten steps and a sentry every five steps outside the Youdian, and the security is strict, as if facing a great enemy.

When Nie Zhen arrived with several trusted disciples, he was immediately stopped by the guards who surrounded him. One of them bowed and said, "Elder Nie, did you come to the You Palace for something?"

"I want to see the Holy King. You should report to the Holy King as soon as possible!"

"This..." The guards looked at each other. The man who had just spoken bowed and smiled apologetically, "Sorry, Elder Nie, the Holy King has already told us not to see anyone. Elder Nie, please go back!"

"Bullshit!" Nie Zhen was really anxious at this time, his face was red and his neck was thick. He gritted his teeth and said, "The military situation is extremely urgent. Shenchi City is now in danger. If you continue to stop us and delay important things, I will kill you!"

The guards had never seen Nie Zhen so anxious and out of control. I think something must have happened. Everyone looked at each other again, and a leader came out. "Go, go!" Nie Zhen got off the horse and waved his hands irritably.

The guard leader took a deep breath and gave the order to open the palace door. With a creaking sound, the door of the Nether Palace was slowly opened a crack, and the guard leader walked in sideways.

He was in for more than half an hour. Nie Zhen, who was waiting outside, was like an ant on a hot pot, pacing back and forth constantly, and occasionally peeking into the Nether Palace through the crack of the door. Unfortunately, it was dark inside and he couldn't see anything clearly.

After an unknown amount of time, the guard leader walked out of the Nether Palace quickly. He came close to Nie Zhen, bowed and saluted, and said: "Elder Nie, the Holy King invites you!"^-^^-^
