Chapter 692 When It Rains, It Pours
Shi Yue frowned and said, "Then arrange a quieter place for me."
"Okay, please go to the third floor, sir."
The green-clothed servant led Shi Yue to the third floor with a smile on his face, and Shi Yue sat down in the corner.
Not long after, a pot of fragrant spiritual tea and two plates of snacks were brought up.
"Sir, please enjoy." The green-clothed servant put down the things and left.
Shi Yue picked up the teacup and took a sip. As soon as the tea went down his throat, his mouth was full of floral fragrance.
"Hey, have you heard? The Great Qin Demon Sect invaded Dongqi." A cultivator at the next table asked his companion.
"I heard that the demon sect cultivators are powerful. In order to monitor the Great Qin Demon Sect, Dongqi built a Black Eagle City at the border between the two countries and sent a Yuanying cultivator to garrison. I heard that the entire Black Eagle City was destroyed not long ago. I don't think Dongqi can hold on for long." A young man in red analyzed.
"No way! Even Nascent Soul cultivators are not immune? Is this true? Where did you hear such a secret?"
"That's right, that was a Nascent Soul cultivator, not a Foundation Establishment cultivator."
"Hmph, that's what the demon cultivators of the Qin Dynasty said. They sent people to spread the news in various markets in Dongqi, and the news has spread all over Dongqi. Instead of questioning the authenticity of the news, it's better to consider your own future. If the Qin Dynasty demons take over Dongqi, we in Beiyan will have to face the Qin Dynasty directly. Maybe the next target of the Qin Dynasty will be us." The young man in red said with some concern.
"That may not be the case. The Tang Dynasty is also next to Dongqi. The Tang Dynasty is now in a mess because of the Nascent Soul Ghost Cultivators. If I were a high-level leader of the Great Qin Demon Sect, I would choose the Tang Dynasty instead of Beiyan."
"A bunch of idiots. If the Tang Dynasty is also taken over by the Great Qin, our Beiyan can remain unscathed. Not to mention Beiyan, I'm afraid that the Western Han Dynasty will not be able to get away with it. The Demon Sect even tried every means to kill the Nascent Soul cultivators. Is it just for Dongqi?"
"Yes, by the way, do you think the Nascent Soul Ghost Cultivators who are causing chaos in the Tang Dynasty were sent by the Great Qin Demon Sect?"
"Hehe, no matter who sent them, it has nothing to do with us, but we need to pay attention to the war between the Qin Dynasty and Dongqi. Once the Qin Dynasty takes over Dongqi, our Beiyan may not be able to remain unscathed."
"This has nothing to do with us. These are things that the Purple Flame Sect needs to consider."
Shi Yue listened to the conversation between several people and frowned.
"Daqin invaded Dongqi? And killed the Yuanying cultivator."
This news hit his heart like a heavy drum.
Once the Daqin Demon Sect took over Dongqi, Beiyan and Tang would be the next targets of Daqin. Thinking of the Yuanying ghost cultivators who were causing trouble in Tang, he felt that if Daqin took over Dongqi, Tang would definitely be the next target of Daqin.
It really rained on a rainy night!
I wonder if this war will affect the auction.
When he thought of this, Shi Yue's heart was shrouded in a cloud.
"It seems that after the auction is over, I have to return to Tang as soon as possible and make preparations early." Shi Yue thought secretly.
Shi Yue picked up the teacup and drank it all, paid the spirit stone, and left the teahouse.
After leaving the market, Shi Yue slapped the spirit beast bag on his waist, and the black phoenix flew out of it.
He jumped up.
The black phoenix spread its wings and soared into the sky, and soon disappeared into the sky.
······
Dongqi, Qinglong Mountains.
On an open grassland, thousands of monks fought together. Judging from their clothes, they were clearly divided into two factions, one of which was the monks in black clothes, and the other faction of monks dressed in various clothes.
There were many corpses lying on the ground, most of which were monks in black clothes. From this point of view, the monks in black clothes were obviously at a disadvantage.
Two huge cities stood on the grassland, one huge city was all black, and the other huge city was all green. The two cities were separated by more than ten miles.
On the wall of the black huge city, there stood four men and one woman, including a middle-aged man in his thirties and a beautiful middle-aged woman with a peach-like face.
"Withdraw the troops! If we continue to fight, it will only increase casualties." The middle-aged man suggested.
"What can we do? The other side has similar high-level cultivators as us, but has many more low-level disciples than us. After all, this is Dongqi's territory, not our Great Qin. Our reinforcements are still on the way. It will take some time for the reinforcements to arrive." The middle-aged beautiful woman said with a wry smile.
"Fellow Daoist Qin said that he would take over Dongqi within half a year. Fellow Daoist Tian, you and Fellow Daoist Qin are from the same sect. Tell Fellow Daoist Qin that the attack is blocked now and we can only wait for reinforcements. If we want to defeat the four sects of Dongqi, we need at least one hundred Jindan cultivators and two thousand foundation-building cultivators." A fat old man in a red robe looked at an old man in a purple Taoist robe and said meaningfully.
"It's not necessary! I think we should fight with the Yuanying cultivators of the four sects of Qingguang Temple. If we win, they will move away from Dongqi." The purple-robed old man said indifferently.
"Fight? The Yuanying cultivators of the four sects of Qingguang Temple are weaker than us. They won't agree!" The middle-aged man frowned.
"Don't agree? Then kill all their disciples. I don't believe they won't agree." The purple-robed old man sneered.
The beautiful middle-aged woman frowned and said with some dissatisfaction: "Fellow Daoist Tian, we can attack the low-level cultivators of Dongqi, and Dongqi can also attack our disciples. To put it bluntly, if the Yuanying cultivators of Dongqi form a team to go to Daqin and attack the low-level cultivators of our Daqin, who can stop them? Last time, we were two against one, and we killed that old bald donkey when the other party didn't escape immediately."
"That's right, everything has rules, and there is no order without rules. If we don't have any shame, and the low-level disciples are all killed or injured, even if we can take down Dongqi, who will manage it? Do we have to plant spiritual medicine ourselves? Go mining ourselves?" The middle-aged man echoed.
"That's right. Without rules, there will be no order. Fellow Daoist Tian, just tell Fellow Daoist Qin a message! Otherwise, let him come to the front line in person. You have seen the current situation. Not to mention half a year, even a year may not be enough to take down Dongqi. The four sects of Dongqi are dispatching people from all over the country to the front line. Their reinforcements are constantly coming, and they will arrive at the front line soon. We are different. There will be no reinforcements for several months." The red-robed old man suggested.
The purple-robed old man raised his eyebrows and showed a hesitant look on his face.
He knew this, but Qin Wuji was his senior brother, so he couldn't refute it directly. Now that so many people opposed it, he couldn't object again.
"Okay! My senior brother Qin mentioned this matter, let's withdraw the troops first!" The four middle-aged men looked at each other and nodded to each other.
Not long after, a loud horn sounded.
On the wall of the white giant city, there stood three men and one woman, led by a kind-looking white-robed monk.
"What's going on? The demons have retreated." A middle-aged scholar with a white face and no beard said with some surprise.
