Chapter 95

Huangfu Xiong's fanatical voice echoed in Yun Xuzhou's main hall, and he even sounded like he was about to cry.

It was the kind of cry that said, "Heaven has finally opened its eyes."

Yun Xuzhou said calmly, "The Imperial Palace thinks that Yunzhou is easy to bully.

Huangfu Xiong, I don't need you to tell me to leave those fifty thousand North Camp Guards behind.

I don't care if you attack Kang Yanji or not, but if you dare to take advantage of my misfortune and sneak attack me, don't blame me for blowing up the city gates of Tu and Jin Prefectures! "

"Don't worry." Huangfu Xiong gritted his teeth and panted heavily. "Old Yun, Kang Yanji and I are irreconcilable enemies.

If you are willing to help me take revenge, you can take the position of Emperor after everything is done!

As long as you are willing to help me take revenge! "

Yun Xuzhou pondered for a moment. "You mean to say that it's not enough to keep those fifty thousand North Camp Guards?

You want me to send troops to attack Tiandu?

Why don't you find You Wuming? "

Huangfu Xiong was stunned for a moment. "… You're right. Why don't I find You Wuming?"

"Yeah, why don't you find You Wuming?"

Huangfu Xiong: "…"

After a while, he said sullenly, "I've always treated him as an enemy, and I don't have a way to contact him.

Hiss, if You Wuming is willing to help me, I can't help a lunatic become Emperor, right? "

Yun Xuzhou smiled. "Let's talk about it after you defeat Kang Yanji.

Old Xiong, from what you're saying, did something really happen to your nephew?

Are you sure it was Jiang who did it? "

Huangfu Xiong's voice slowly came out. "It's not just Du 'er.

My big brother was also … harmed by her. "

"Hiss —" Yun Xuzhou pretended to be speechless.

"Let's not talk about it anymore!"

Huangfu Xiong said. "There's no time to lose. I'll transfer troops here and contact Youzhou. You keep the North Camp Guards busy."

"Okay."

The jade slip shattered.

After contacting Huangfu Xiong, Yun Xuzhou rubbed his sore forehead and began to deal with the feedback from the border.

The strength of the North Camp Guards was indeed astonishing. Since the first news came back, they had already broken through three cities and arrived at the Great Ice Plains in less than two hours.

The terrain of Yunzhou was long and narrow. It was narrow from east to west and long from north to south.

The Northern Camp Guard invaded from the west of Yunzhou and would only need twelve to twelve hours to kill their way to Yundu. This was also the reason why Tiandu did not hesitate to expose its shady business with Emperor Yun and directly sent a large army to crush them.

Yun Xuzhou pondered for a moment.

At this moment, the matter at the Ancestral Temple was not urgent at all.

As long as Yundu was protected, the secret under the ancestral temple would be revealed to the world sooner or later.

If the North Camp Guards were to break in …

Yun Xuzhou gritted her teeth, and grief and indignation appeared on her beautiful face.

If it weren't for the fact that they had sent out all their elites to fight the demons, how could a mere North Camp Guard invade Yunzhou?!

…

On the other side.

On the top of the giant beast's head, Sang Yuanyuan saw the jade slip in Yun Xuzhou's hand flash and then leave in a hurry. He understood the general situation.

"Tiandu must have sent troops to Yunzhou!

You Wuming, this monster must be guarding some great secret.

They are anxious! "

You Wuming raised his eyebrows. "It's the North Camp Guard."

"Oh?"

"The North Camp Guard is stored in the northeast of Tiandu and has maintained a war alert in order to guard against me.

Now that I've been scared away by Huangfu Xiong, Tiandu wants to transfer troops here as soon as possible. The most suitable person is the arrow on the bow of the North Camp Guard. "

Sang Yuanyuan widened his eyes. "Then … isn't this a good opportunity for Huangfu Xiong to make a move?!"

"Yes." You Wuming's lips curled into a smirk. "Kang Yanji won't be in such a hurry to transfer troops. If Huangfu Xiong makes a move now, by the time Kang Yanji comes back to his senses, I'm afraid he'll already be at his doorstep!"

"Will Huangfu Xiong make a move?"

You Wuming smiled mysteriously. "Let's see how the Prince Regent talks."

Suddenly, a tremor like that of a landslide came. The chaotic gray land of black soil and white snow below suddenly exploded. The two hind legs of the giant ice tortoise were pulled out from the ground and stomped heavily on the ruins. The tortoise's legs were tied with circles of black iron chains that led to the ground.

You Wuming tightened his arms. "Little Sang Guo, hold on tight."

She immediately summoned a pile of 'kelp' and tied herself to his body like a bag of explosives.

You Wuming: "…" This wife of his was not a fairy at all, really.

This should have been a picturesque scene where she wrapped her arms around his waist, her long hair and dress fluttering in the wind, but she tied him up like a dumpling.

She lowered her head and saw that this guy was leaning against her with a smile on his little face. He looked so safe and secure.

You Wuming: "…" Forget it, forget it. Safety first.

Tied up like this, it really was very safe.

After the giant ice turtle's four limbs emerged from the ground, a straight line of earth bulged rapidly. In the blink of an eye, the earth seemed to have been split in half by a knife, and a gap more than a hundred feet long appeared. Immediately, a turtle tail covered with sharp thorns swung out from the ground. It curled slightly in the air, and immediately swung heavily at the two guys who dared to stand on top of its head.

You Wuming swung his knife backhanded.

Without dodging or retreating, he raised his knife and slashed at the giant tail that smashed over like a mountain range.

The black flames on the blade were raging, resisting the gusts of wind brought about by the giant tail.

His slender body was like a pine tree that could not be crushed by the wind and snow, standing perfectly straight.

He suddenly realized that Sang Yuanyuan's kelp was really easy to tie up. Otherwise, he would have to split his attention to protect her at this moment.

The Raging Flame Blade broke through the gusts of wind and collided with the barbed tip of the glacier tail with a loud bang!

On the turtle tail, a seven-colored light flowed, colliding with the black flames and bouncing off each other.

It was like a layer of unbreakable protective shield.

After the attack, the giant ice turtle lowered its head and then swung it heavily, throwing You Wuming into the air. It opened its huge mouth and tilted its head to catch you!

Although it was huge, its movements were swift and thunderous. When it raised its head, it left behind afterimages.

You Wuming flapped his wings and narrowly brushed past it.

His figure nimbly somersaulted in the air, kicked the giant ice turtle's nose, and swept towards its eyes. He raised his knife and slashed again!

Sang Yuanyuan only felt that she was brushing against a glacier and swept out horizontally.

She threw out a roll of kelp and hooked it onto the sharp horn on the top of the ice turtle's head, giving You Wuming leverage.

"Smart!" He took the time to praise her. In the next second, his heavy knife slashed the ice turtle's eyes.

Similarly, a seven-colored light blocked the attack.

"I can fight," he said concisely. "But … I want to eat it."

He retracted his wings, jumped backward, and fell vertically.

The ice turtle blinked its huge eyelids, suddenly opened its huge mouth, and bit down on this ignorant little flying insect.

You Wuming raised his hand and pressed Sang Yuanyuan's head against his chest. The black flames around his body exploded, and like a slippery fish, he slid into the ice turtle's huge mouth.

Turtles had no teeth, but their mouths were densely covered with countless sharp barbs, like clusters of hanging upside down icicles. They were densely packed, and one look at them would make one's hair stand on end.

You Wuming held his knife horizontally, and the black flames soared. Wherever it passed, the black flames and the seven-colored light on the icicles briefly intersected, and instantly broke through the seven-colored light shield.

Ice chips flew everywhere. The ice turtle realized that something was wrong, and stretched its neck to spit him out.

"It's too late."

You Wuming smiled coldly, and with a flap of his wings, he went straight through the ice turtle's throat, down its esophagus, and into its stomach.

Sang Yuanyuan: "…" After graduating from kindergarten, she hadn't played on a slide.

You Wuming cushioned her under, arched his body, and hugged her protectively, laughing heartily in her ear.

Sang Yuanyuan: "…" She guessed that this guy would love to play to death.

Looking out from inside the giant turtle's body, layers of transparent organs, flesh, and shell overlapped together, like a frost kaleidoscope.

"Where are you going to eat?" She was afraid that he would be so immersed in playing that he forgot about the important matter.

"The heart."

You Wuming laughed heartily, held her in his arms, and flipped over. With a flap of his wings, he landed on a huge oval ice ball.

Sang Yuanyuan was surprised to find that the ice ball was steadily and slowly bouncing under her feet.

"You want to refine it?"

You Wuming looked around for a moment, and then pointed at a gap between the organs. "Yes.

Little Sang Guo, you can make a hammock there, and I'll be fine when I wake up. "

"Will it roll around?"

Sang Yuanyuan didn't dare to imagine what it would be like if this giant turtle rolled around in pain, and flattened Yun Du.

Yun Xuzhou and Sang Yuanyuan were not close, and she was afraid that it would be completely cold.

You Wuming half-heartedly comforted her, "Don't worry, don't worry, I've seen it. This turtle has big iron chains tied to its four legs.

It won't roll far. "

Sang Yuanyuan nodded her head.

The 'kelp' spun and wrapped around the large and small internal organs of the ice turtle, forming a spiritual cocoon. Sang Yuanyuan looked around, and then threw a man-eating flower into the middle of the cocoon, fixing it firmly.

After making this strange flower bed, Sang Yuanyuan lightly jumped into the flower mouth, and commanded the petals to close, leaving only a small window.

She lay in the flower bud, holding her cheek with her hand, and blinked her eyes, watching You Wuming.

She saw him stab the black knife into the ice turtle's heart, and then he crossed his knees, holding the knife with one hand to maintain his posture, and made a simple seal with the other hand, placing it flat on his knees.

Black flames burst out, starting from the black knife, like a black tide, spreading towards the transparent heart.

In the blink of an eye, the seven-colored heart of the giant ice turtle was completely covered by the black flames, and was being refined.

It was in so much pain that it hissed and began to roll around.

Sang Yuanyuan didn't pay attention for a moment and fell into the flower bud, spinning 360 degrees.

She hurriedly gathered the petals of the man-eating flower, shrinking into a sleeping bag, and summoned a few rolls of 'kelp' to firmly secure her body inside.

Fortunately, the four legs of the ice turtle were tied up by the black iron chains, and no matter how much it struggled, it only crushed the debris of the ancestral temple, and didn't harm the nearby people.

Time passed little by little.

Under the refining of the black flames, the transparent heart was gradually dyed black, and when the internal circulation reached the heart, it became something in You Wuming's palm.

The internal organs of the ice turtle began to bleed.

Those cold drops of blood also contained the seven-colored power. Sang Yuanyuan's mind moved, and she threw out the man-eating flowers, making them spread their petals enchantingly, floating around the body of the ice turtle, opening and closing like jellyfish, and swallowing the blood that seeped out of the ice turtle into the petals.

The seven-colored power in the ice turtle's body was much stronger than that of the snakes, insects, rats, and ants. Sang Yuanyuan only felt a burst of spiciness rush to her head, choking her until tears welled up in her eyes.

She turned over, lying flat on the petals, and threw out a bunch of small face flowers to heal herself.

She was surprised to find that the face plates of these small face flowers had faintly turned into a dazzling color.

They weren't as ugly as she imagined.

From a certain angle, she could see the seven-colored flowing light of the yellow face plates, just like the inner wall of a shell.

She had a premonition that she would soon be able to completely adapt to this seven-colored power.

After lying down for a while, thinking about You Wuming in her heart, she got up again and stretched her head to look at him.

She saw that the huge man-eating flowers were like squid jellyfish, opening and closing their petals as they swam around, swallowing and refining the blood that seeped out of the ice turtle.

After You Wuming's black flames wrapped around the ice turtle's heart, it spread along the heart meridian, dyeing the entire interior of the ice turtle's body black.

You Wuming's eyes were still closed, and he sat leisurely on the heart, holding the hilt of his saber with one hand.

She discovered that he wasn't refining and swallowing the ice turtle's heart, but was using his own black flames to assimilate it.

The ice turtle's struggles grew weaker and weaker.

Finally, it lay down as if it were dead, and only its heart was still beating.

"Sang Guo." You Wuming's voice was very hoarse, and it trembled slightly.

"I'm here, I'm here."

Sang Yuanyuan hurriedly let go of the petals, using the Spirit Containment Vine to hang herself, and swung onto the ice turtle's heart, nervously watching him.

"Yun Xuzhou will be in danger.

But I can't leave right now. "

Flames danced in his eyes.

"I'll go help her!" Sang Yuanyuan stood up straight.

In order to make him feel at ease, she decisively summoned little face flowers one after another, pulled open her collar, and stuffed them in.

You Wuming: "… …" This was clearly a very serious, serious, and unsettling matter, but why did she make it sound so funny?

Soon, Sang Yuanyuan's clothes bulged, and they were all stuffed with little face flowers.

"I'll ride over directly on the man-eating flower, and summon a group of people to protect me."

You Wuming couldn't help but laugh, and the corners of his mouth curled up. "Little Sang Guo, are you that afraid of death?"

"Of course." She stuffed a few more face flowers into her collar.

"I don't want to die." Her smile was even prettier than the face flowers. "I want to like you for a lifetime.

Don't worry! "

You Wuming: "!"

He slowly turned his eyes to the side. "Go, I'm not worried at all."

After a long while, he added, "It's best if you paste your face too."

Sang Yuanyuan: "… …"

She threw out the Spirit Containment Vine, and it quickly climbed toward the ice turtle's throat.

She felt a little like Spiderman — she threw out a string to entangle it in the distance, then pulled it back, and her body swept across the distance with a whoosh.

You Wuming and her tacit understanding was perfect. The black flames swept past, and the ice turtle lowered its head and roared in pain, allowing Sang Yuanyuan to steadily sweep out of the ice turtle's mouth and land in the ruins of the ancestral temple.

The guards who were standing in the distance were shocked.

Sang Yuanyuan realized that everyone's legs were trembling.

He must have been frightened by the giant ice tortoise just now.

She threw out a man-eating flower and rode on its head.

It immediately swung its little tail, twisting a long arc in the snow, and rushed toward the palace.

As expected, Yun Xuzhou's palace was surrounded.

The battle was unusually fierce. Fortunately, Yun Xuzhou was not unprepared. Long before the people arranged by Emperor Yun came to sneak attack, she had already set up an ambush around the main hall. This battle was like waiting for an opportunity to come, and it was more like waiting for an opportunity to come.

The two sides fought from the stairs of the main hall to the palace gate, and the entire courtyard was full of fighting.

It was not easy to enter the gate.

Sang Yuanyuan controlled the man-eating flower and swam to the side of the palace wall.

The man-eating flower lowered its petals and flicked them.

Sang Yuanyuan jumped up the palace wall with a whoosh. After stabilizing herself, she threw a man-eating flower at the bottom of the palace wall, knocking over a pair of fighting guards. Then, she jumped down and landed on the petals.

The man-eating flower was about three meters tall when lying horizontally. She lay on top of it, so she did not have to worry about being accidentally hurt by the fighting.

"Oh my God!" An inexperienced bodyguard jumped in fright and swung his saber at him.

A seven-colored light flashed on the man-eating flower's petals, and the guard's sword immediately cracked. While he was distracted, his opponent behind him took the opportunity to pierce his heart with a sword.

Sang Yuanyuan looked down and saw that the petals were unharmed.

Sure enough, refining the seven-colored power was very beneficial.

Sang Yuanyuan became even more courageous.

She rushed toward the stairs of the main hall. The two groups of people were Yun Xuzhou's guards, and they were dressed exactly the same. She could not tell which were Yun Xuzhou's people and which were Emperor Yun Xuzhou's people, so she could only help neither side.

In any case, the people who wanted to kill Yun Xuzhou were definitely bad people, so she could not be wrong to keep an eye on her.

Yun Xuzhou had already walked out of the main hall. She raised her head and stood proudly on the stairs, coldly watching the battle below with her hands behind her back.

Suddenly, the cold expression on her face cracked.

She saw Sang Yuanyuan riding on a red fatty.

Yun Xuzhou: "…"

Sang Yuanyuan waved at her happily. "I'm here to help!"

At this moment, a high-ranking guard who was surrounded by several traitors suddenly slipped up and was stabbed in the chest. He was then sent flying with a kick to the stairs, and the knife in his hand flew far away.

"Yun Seven!" Yun Xuzhou's eyes narrowed. She took two steps forward and squatted down to check the guard's injuries.

The guard spat out a mouthful of blood, and his lips curled into a smile. "I can die without regrets …"

Yun Xuzhou's expression changed. She reached out to help him. "Don't say anything. I'll help you …"

Suddenly, a sunflower with a big round face fell from the sky and hit her chest with a 'bang', causing her to fall backwards.

Yun Xuzhou: "?!"

She saw Yun Seven, who was on the verge of death, holding a dagger and stabbing it into the spot where she was just now.

The edge of the blade was blue. It was obvious that it was dipped in poison!

Yun Seven's attack missed. She gritted her teeth and raised the dagger to attack Yun Xuzhou again.

"Yun Xuzhou!

You're so ambitious. You harmed the Yunzhou King and the Ancestor!

Yun Seven will set things right today and kill you, you traitor! "

The situation today was too chaotic. So many people were exposed, and Yun Xuzhou couldn't take care of them all at once.

Yun Seven had been the main force resisting the traitors. Yun Xuzhou subconsciously trusted her. She didn't expect it to be a trick of self-injury.

These people who obeyed the orders of the Old Cloud Emperor had never done anything to harm the Cloud State before the crisis broke out. They acted no differently from others. Today's matter was only because they were deceived by the Old Cloud Emperor and obeyed the military orders.

Yun Xuzhou's beautiful almond-shaped eyes showed a trace of sorrow.

Military orders were like mountains. Once an order was given, any soldier would only obey it unconditionally until they received the order to retreat or died in battle.

This was the foundation of an army, and it was also the guarantee of victory.

They would obey orders unwaveringly, regardless of whether they were right or wrong.

Yun Xuzhou knew that no matter how she explained, these soldiers wouldn't waver at all.

She didn't need them to waver.

An army that hesitated was terrifying.

Today, they could only die in battle.

"Kill!" Her tone was cold.

Immediately, two guards jumped up the steps and entangled Yun Seven. They fought to the bottom.

Sang Yuanyuan controlled the man-eating flower to climb up the steps.

As soon as his feet touched the ground, the hairs on the back of his neck stood up. An ice-cold sense of danger surged into his mind. Without hesitation, Sang Yuanyuan summoned a man-eating flower and plucked it down, wrapping himself and Yun Xuzhou in its thick petals.

At the same time, countless sharp arrows hit the petals of the man-eating flower and fell to the ground.

Before he could say anything, the jade scroll in Yun Xuzhou's hand flashed, and a hurried voice sounded —

"Report!

The 50,000 soldiers of the North Camp Guards have crossed Fengling City and are about to reach the capital! "

Indeed, there were internal and external troubles!

Yun Xuzhou crushed the jade scroll and narrowed her eyes slightly.

"The fastest reinforcements will arrive in six hours."

She said, "Six hours is enough for me to dig out all their escape routes, plant explosives, and make it so that they won't be able to return!

However, Sang Guo, Yun Du only has 20,000 soldiers, and they might not be able to defend for six hours. You Wuming, it's better for you to blend in with the refugees and leave this place as soon as possible. There's no need to take the risk. "

Sang Yuanyuan looked up and saw that her expression was firm and determined. She had already disregarded her own life and death.

"There's no hurry."

Sang Yuanyuan said, "I have to see the strength of the legendary Four Camp Guards of Tiandu. After all, we'll have to fight them sooner or later.

It's worth it to take such a small risk to obtain precious and accurate first-hand information. "

Yun Xuzhou was speechless. His words of persuasion were of no use now.

She rubbed her eyebrows.

Just as she was about to speak, she suddenly heard an earth-shattering sound from the west.

The ground beneath her feet was trembling.

Yun Xuzhou's expression changed dramatically. "Not good!

There's a spy!

This commotion, I'm afraid … "

The jade scroll flashed, and an urgent report came in.

The west gate of the capital city had been blown down!

Without the defense of the city gate, how could they resist the fearless charge of the heavy cavalry?

"It's hard to guard against a thief in one's own home …" Yun Xuzhou panted heavily. With a clang, she pulled out the sword at her waist and waved her hand heavily. "Sang Guo, I have to personally go into battle!"

"Okay."

Sang Yuanyuan put away the flower and threw out another one. Pulling Yun Xuzhou with him, he jumped onto the petals and slid down the steps.

Yun Xuzhou: "…"

It was originally a very solemn and sad scene, but after riding the red fatty, the atmosphere suddenly became not serious at all.

It was too difficult.

Yun Xuzhou helplessly pointed the way. The red fatty passed through the nervous and busy soldiers on the street and quickly arrived at the destroyed city gate.

The traitor had already been captured. It was an entire battalion that was usually responsible for guarding the city wall. There were more than 400 people.

The city gate was being urgently repaired, but it was obviously too late.

Yun Xuzhou was expressionless. "Kill them."

After saying that, she led Sang Yuanyuan up the city wall.

"He can directly control nearly 30% of the people," she said. "It's more than I expected."

Sang Yuanyuan put his hand on her shoulder and patted her. "Don't worry, you've already done enough."

"I know." Yun Xuzhou's lips curled into a bitter smile.

After all, she was only the regent. It was only right for the ancestor to watch over the country for the emperor.

The two of them looked into the distance together.

The North Camp Guards in blood-red armor had already appeared in their field of vision.

On the icy plains, a sea of blood-red covered the sky and earth. It was as if an irresistible heavenly fire was about to engulf this small city of ice and snow.

The rumbling of battle hooves caused the city wall to tremble faintly.

The crossbowmen on the city wall were already in position, waiting for the North Camp Guards to enter their shooting range.

However, this elite army was well-equipped and had a high cultivation level. Crossbows and arrows would probably not be of much use.

Yun Xuzhou glanced at the shield formation behind the city gate and sighed without batting an eyelid.

They couldn't stop them.

They could only use their lives to delay them!
