Chapter 3708 How Do You Know It Won't Work if You Haven't Tried It?
"The foreign spirit wants the stars, so we don't give them to him. Don't you understand the truth?"
Nie Ying glanced at Gu Qing again, causing the latter to bow his head in shame, and then walked back to his seat without saying a word, leaving a group of first and second rank god emperors looking at each other.
"What happened just now, my city lord will pretend it didn't happen, don't be so stupid in the future!"
Seeing that the dozen or so people were still standing upright, Nie Ying really hated iron for being weak, and said in a cold voice again, and the people headed by the second-rank God Emperor sat back to their original positions with embarrassing expressions.
From the beginning to the end, Yun Xiao, the person involved, did not speak. Perhaps he wanted to see the faces of these human cultivators, and even more wanted to see the attitude of the city lord Nie Ying.
For Nie Ying's attitude, at least so far, Yun Xiao is quite satisfied, and settled the matter with a few words. Presumably no one will dare to mention handing him over in the future.
"Xingchen, they are also a little anxious, since you have found your way back, don't mind too much!"
Seeing that Xingchen didn't speak, Nie Ying could only speak again.
Now he can't see through this young man in black. If he holds grudges because of this, those people who have stood up before, including Gu Qing, a third-rank emperor, will probably have endless troubles.
"It's human nature, what should I care about?"
Yun Xiao's face was expressionless, which made Nie Ying laugh helplessly, but this should be regarded as the best result, at least the other party's statement should not be settled again after the fall.
However, Nie Ying is also a human being. It is absolutely impossible for Yun Xiao to say that there is no grudge in Yun Xiao's heart with the way Gu Qing and the others behaved just now.
Even a clay figurine has a bit of earthy nature, let alone such a monstrous son of heaven.
Thinking of this, Nie Ying couldn't help but secretly scolded Gu Qing and others for being stupid. It must be impossible for these guys to ask Xingchen to rescue them if they encounter danger in the future.
"City Lord, what should we do now? If the foreign spirits don't get the stars, I'm afraid it will get worse. We have to guard against it!"
Naturally, Gu Qing also knew that his statement just now had offended Yun Xiao, but after all, he put the overall situation first, this question was able to ask the aspirations of everyone in the palace, and it also made everyone feel melancholy.
Of course, the matter of exchanging the stars cannot be mentioned again, but the threat of the ghosts is still there. As Gu Qing said, if they fail to achieve their goals, the ghosts will never give up, and will even become angry from embarrassment.
Even if the human side is now prepared, but when the power of the alien spirit thunder is suppressed, it will inevitably suffer heavy losses. This is what they are most worried about.
"Temporarily avoid the front, let's retreat first!"
Nie Ying didn't have a better solution. After pondering for a while, he finally made such a somewhat humiliating decision.
Over the years, human beings have retreated again and again, and they have retreated to the land thousands of miles east of the Zhanling River.
Originally thought that this time the 18th District took some advantage and could get some land back, but unexpectedly, it lost even more.
But now that the Foreign Spirit side is determined to get the stars, it is bound to be impossible to retreat easily.
Under the current situation, if human beings choose to fight recklessly, they will inevitably suffer heavy losses, and it is not impossible to even destroy a few more districts.
"Xingchen, do you have any suggestions?"
Although he had already made a decision, Nie Ying still turned his head and asked, now that he knew this monster with a mind, he might be able to resolve the current bad situation with a stroke of genius.
However, Nie Ying didn't hold out too much hope. Although Yun Xiao was strong, he was alone after all.
Under the battle in various districts of Zhan Lingyuan, Yun Xiao was at his wits' end, and it was impossible for him to have any way to turn the tide.
"There is a suggestion, but I'm not 100% sure!"
Unexpectedly, after Nie Ying asked as if it was a routine, the young man in black beside him actually nodded his head, which attracted everyone's attention here.
Under the current harsh situation, unless the human base camp sends dozens of third-rank god powerhouses, or even some third-rank god emperor powerhouses, it will not be of great use at all.
Although Xingchen has done a lot of great things, even against the tartary buckwheat, he may not be defeated, but Zhan Lingyuan is really too big, even if Yun Xiao has superpowers, he can't change this general trend at all.
But since the other party said this, although Nie Ying didn't hold out hope, his expression still changed. What if this person really thought of something he didn't think of?
"Hey, it's easy to say, there are not only humans and alien spirits in the Battle Spirit Field!"
Yun Xiao didn't care about those eyes with mixed emotions at all, a smile appeared on his face, and then he said a few words, which made the hall suddenly quiet.
"Xingchen, what do you mean, ask the pulse demon to help deal with the foreign spirits?"
After a while, Zhan Lei frowned, and asked directly. In fact, after Yun Xiao said that just now, most people already understood what he was referring to.
In the chaotic place of Zhan Lingyuan, on the surface, humans and alien spirits are fighting in full swing, but in fact there is a third-party power.
It's just that in the past few decades, the presence of the pulse demon has indeed become somewhat weak.
Zhan Lei is naturally aware of this point. Over the years, Mai Yao has rarely appeared on the battlefield of Zhan Lingyuan, but huddled in his own one-acre three-point land, and would never take the initiative to provoke the two major groups.
Human beings are at a disadvantage. It's not that there are some strong human races who want to unite with the Mai Yao clan to fight against the ghosts. After all, compared to the human race, the ghosts are the biggest threat.
Many years ago, it was not that human beings and Mai Yao had never cooperated before, but when the original city lord of Battle Demon City broke through to rank four God Emperor and the new city lord took control of Battle Demon City, the situation changed.
I don't know if there is any agreement between the foreign spirits and the pulse demon, or if the monsters themselves have become less courageous. In recent decades, the plans of human beings to unite with the pulse demons to fight against the foreign spirits have been ignored, and there has been no response at all.
This is the reason why Zhan Lei felt depressed. If he could really unite with the Mai Yao, why would those spirits be so arrogant? Thinking of this, he couldn't help but hate the Mai Yao clan.
Originally, the monster races were all militants, but the monster races in Zhan Lingyuan are all content with enjoying themselves, and they are not even as bloody as the human race, which is simply strange.
"Xingchen, some time ago during the war in the 18th District, I also sent people to ask for help from the Yaozu, but in the end there was no response. I'm afraid this road will not work!"
Nie Ying didn't want to hurt Yun Xiao too much, but he just told a fact. He believed that with the monstrous mentality of the person in front of him, he could guess the attitude of the demon clan from these words.
"At this time and at that time, they used to be in a corner, but now they may not be!"
Yun Xiao smiled slightly. After saying this, Nie Ying was stunned for a moment. He is also a person with extremely quick mental reactions, and he knew what the other party wanted to say in an instant.
"The foreign spirit is very ambitious. The so-called dead lips and cold teeth, if we really destroy the original human beings in Zhan Ling, will we let those monster races sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight?"
Yun Xiao talked eloquently, it seems that during this period of time he was not really retreating, but took the time to study the entire situation in Zhan Lingyuan, and Mai Yao would naturally not let it go.
In the past, the foreign spirits mainly fought with humans, and the monster race was naturally happy to watch the show. After all, the human side tried to block the foreign spirits as much as possible, and the two sides had been deadlocked for many years.
But now, the foreign spirits have gone all out to destroy the four major regions of the human race, and it seems that they will continue to move forward.
Even Nie Ying made the decision to retreat first, and he couldn't believe that those pulse demons hadn't planted spies between the two clans.
Variant spirits have an extremely greedy heart for flesh and blood, and there is no difference between the pulse demon and human beings.
From Yun Xiao's point of view, relying on his three-inch tongue, he might not have no chance of success if he analyzed the current situation to those high-level Zhan Ling Yuanmai monsters.
"It's okay for others to say, but Shi Gang, the city lord of the Demon War City, is a guy who doesn't like oil and salt. I'm afraid you will do useless work!"
Although Nie Ying had never dealt with the Lord of the War Demon City, he knew his temperament through some channels.
That guy has been used to enjoying it all these years, and he might not be moved until the real last moment.
"How do you know if you haven't tried it?"
Yun Xiao has always said more than said, and he said in a deep voice: "Give me a month, if you can't persuade the Yaozu to join the war, then it's not too late to retreat!"
"The four districts were destroyed only because the foreign spirit caught us off guard. Now that we are on guard, we should be able to do it for a month, right?"
Seeming to see the worries of Gu Qing and others, Yun Xiao said a few more words again.
If you can't hold on for even a month with some precautions, then there is no need to fight this battle again.
"Okay, just one month!"
Nie Ying is not a procrastination type, although he knows that such a hard resistance will cause heavy losses, and may even destroy a few more districts, but it is extremely unwilling for him to admit defeat and retreat like this.
Now that Nie Ying had already set the tone, no matter how much Gu Qing and the others had to say and how many worries they had, they all swallowed it up. Anything more would be to question the decision of the city lord.
"Xing Chen, those monster races are a bit unreasonable, let me go with you!"
Zhan Lei was a little worried, or maybe he was used to fighting with Yun Xiaoguan shoulder to shoulder, maybe there would be some surprises when he went to Yaozu this time.
"I am coming too!"
Mu Qianyin on the side couldn't wait any longer. She is also a powerhouse of the first-rank God Emperor now, and she is not as powerless as she was in Shifang City.
As soon as this remark came out, Ye Qingtian on the other side was also a little ready to move.
"I'm here to negotiate, not to fight. Why do you bring so many people? Do you think those guys can really keep me?"
Seeing this, Yunxiao was a little dumbfounded. This was very different from the last time he went to Guiyue Valley to save people. Now that the humans in Zhanlingyuan are in a precarious situation, even if the Yaozu refuses to agree, it is impossible to fight.
When the time comes to face enemies on both sides, human beings will definitely not be able to bear it, so Yun Xiao made up his mind that this time when going to fight the demon city, he should focus on harmony.
It's my birthday today, let's go out and have a bowl of noodles to celebrate, hehe!
