Whale Falls and Becomes a God

Chapter 121 Jiangnan Gathering
"They're expected to launch a surprise attack on Hailing, so we have to be on guard!"

Without waiting for everyone to analyze the second king's reaction, Qiansong spoke again.

"Marquis of Nanyang..."

Xiao Ying narrowed his eyes slightly, and murmured slowly with great anticipation, "We really have to be on guard!"

Even though Xiao Ying's cultivation had advanced by leaps and bounds, and he was primarily cultivating the "Nine Cauldrons Human Emperor Code" created by Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty, who was perhaps the only one of his kind, and also had the "Blood Demon Diagram" to assist him, he still had no confidence that he could win against Wu Yunzhao, the Marquis of Nanyang, alone. He could only hold his own against one or two of them at best.

This is the difference between innate talent and acquired accomplishment!

Thanks to the "Blood Demon Diagram" and the "Nine Cauldrons Human Emperor Code", Xiao Ying has just entered the third level of the upper third level of the Broken Realm. His physical strength has exceeded 100,000 pounds, comparable to a monster with natural supernatural powers. He is capable of suppressing 99% of the world's generals alone.

However, Nanyang Marquis Wu Yunzhao is a congenital monster with natural strength, and is recognized as the best martial artist in the world. His skills are better than the "strongest" Yuwen Chengdu and the hidden Li Yuanba, but he is not as strong as the two!

How can Xiao Ying compete with Wu Yunzhao?!
Unless possessed by the celestial spirit, perhaps they can still fight a few times!
"Rumor has it... even Prince Shouguang (Han Qinhu) and the Four Treasures Generals (Shang Shitu) were no match for the Marquis of Nanyang. In the Battle of Nanyang, he slew dozens of famous and great generals. He was invincible, but was ultimately defeated by General Tianbao due to exhaustion. If he were to launch a surprise attack himself, it would be truly difficult to defend against him! Our side..."

Xie Yingdeng's expression changed. He glanced at Xiao Ying and reminded her with a heavy face and obvious fear.

After a pause, he continued hesitantly:
"Now... the late emperor has passed away. Surely the Marquis of Nanyang wouldn't harbor hatred towards the Empress? Perhaps we could try to incite a rebellion, such as... vindicating the Zhongxiao King (Wu Jianzhang)? Or even allowing the Marquis of Nanyang to inherit the Zhongxiao King's title and rank?"

Han Qinhu, whose courtesy name was Zitong, was granted the title of Shang Zhuguo, Governor-General of Liangzhou, and King Shouguang of Jin Dynasty. He was one of the Nine Kings of the Sui Dynasty and was known as the Heavenly Tiger King in the martial arts world. He was a prominent figure and unparalleled genius who stood at the top of the world in the previous generation.

Such a person was still defeated by Marquis Nanyang. Moreover, Hulao Pass, which has been recognized as the best pass in the world since ancient times... The general, Master Shang and his apprentice, known as the Four Treasures Generals, were also defeated by Marquis Nanyang. Coupled with the deaths of dozens of famous generals and great commanders, the power of Marquis Nanyang was directly pushed to the peak of the world, and he was truly at the peak of his power!
Although Wu Yunzhao was indeed defeated by Yuwen Chengdu, making Yuwen Chengdu the most invincible person in the world, many people still believe that Nanyang Hou is the best in the world and Yuwen Chengdu just "got lucky"!

Now that they are about to become enemies with Marquis Nanyang, who wouldn't be afraid?
"Marquis Nanyang... This general really wants to give it a try!" Dugu Feng clenched her pink fists and murmured with great anticipation and excitement.

Including Xiao Ying, everyone looked at Dugu Feng and fell silent...

This attitude clearly shows that no one is optimistic about Dugu Feng!

Although Xiao Ying knew that after the fusion of the Star Soul, Dugu Feng's talent had reached the level of a demon, comparable to the world's top peerless warriors, Xiao Ying still felt that Dugu Feng was no match for Wu Yunzhao.

The absolute gap in innate talent and physical strength is beyond reason, and cannot be measured by cultivation level. Otherwise, Li Yuanba would not have become the best in the world and fought against millions of troops alone!
Of course, if necessary, Xiao Ying felt that if he joined forces with Dugu Feng, even if he was defeated, he would be able to contain the enemy!

"You...what do you mean?" Dugu Feng was straightforward but not stupid. It was not difficult for him to see what everyone meant. He immediately shouted angrily and unwillingly!

Although Dugu Feng was stuck in the shackles of a first-grade celestial being, he was confident that he could defeat the celestial being. What was there to be afraid of?
Marquis of Nanyang is not a god!
"Send a message...try to contact them first. Redress the injustice done to King Zhongxiao. We can discuss inciting rebellion or deposing the Marquis of Nanyang!"

Xiao Ying smiled, his eyes soothing Dugu Feng, but he directed an instruction to Qian Song, adding, "A reputation for loyalty and filial piety is enough to be passed down through history, but he cannot be defeated by the Nanyang Marquis! If he wishes, he can certainly inherit his father's name. This is better than wholeheartedly rebelling against the Sui Dynasty and causing chaos throughout the world. This is my message!"

"Ok!"

Everyone seemed to be lost in thought. Qian Song nodded heavily in response. After a moment's thought, he continued, "In the Jianghuai army, there are rumors that the Jianghuai General and the King of Chu have some grudges. The King of Chu's lineage has also been strengthening its military training while stationed, and has been making frequent moves. This can be used to our advantage, but we must also be wary..."

Xiao Ying decisively waved his hand to stop him and warned, "It's difficult! The two kings of Jiang and Huai won't be fighting among themselves anytime soon, so there's no need to add fuel to the fire. Trying to drive a wedge between them will probably anger them, and instead make them unite and attack us...!"

Princess Fengming Yang Qingxuan nodded in agreement, "That's true... The Jianghuai Army hasn't reached its peak yet, and hasn't dominated Jiangnan yet! Both publicly and privately, the two princes will do their best to exercise self-control and avoid internal strife. It's truly inappropriate to provoke them... At least not by us, as that could easily anger them!"

"Half and half..." Xiao Ying responded ambiguously without further explanation.

"OK……"

Qiansong responded obediently, saying that he would inform the court and the Eastern Sui army, and continued to report:
"Furthermore, according to intelligence, the Hailing battlefield is now attracting worldwide attention, with the major Jiangnan factions clearly leaning towards it. Of particular note are powerful figures like the great bandit Wenren Suian, Lou Shigan, the Purple-faced Heavenly King (Xiong Kuohai), and the Invincible Hun Tian (Wu Tianxi). Even the more distant Southern Barbarian King Xiao Xian of Daliang has disappeared with many elites, suspected of sneaking into the Hailing battlefield..."

"This……"

Hearing this, everyone was dumbfounded, and even Xiao Ying felt a little numb.

At this time, Xiongkuohai was the largest den of thieves in the world... In the Taihang Mountains, the leader of Jinding Village had tens of thousands of soldiers and hundreds of thousands of people. He was invincible in hundreds of battles and was famous, so he was called the Purple-faced King.

Wu Tianxi is the chief of Tuoluo Village (Fujian, and also the leader of Shadow) in the Nanman area. He commands dozens of large and small villages in the Nanman mountain area, has an army of tens of thousands and millions of people, and is feared in the south. He is known as the Invincible Huntian. With a pair of Huntian Drills, he is invincible.

Lou Shigan was an earlier Jiangnan bandit, but he was defeated by the Jianghuai Army and became a vagrant bandit, wandering around everywhere, but his strength and influence should not be underestimated.

Together with Wenren Suian who was entrenched in Wujun, they were all big bandits among the "Seventy-two Roads of Smoke and Dust". Each of them was famous, powerful and extraordinary.

As for King Xiao Xian of Daliang, his power was entrenched further south than Tianjiang, occupying Baling, Jiangling and other places, which also belonged to the Jiangnan region. Because he colluded with the various southern barbarian tribes and helped and benefited each other, he was criticized by the southern barbarians. His power was no less than that of the Three Kings of Jiangnan.

The only thing is that Xiao Xian was the great-grandson of Emperor Xuan of Western Liang, Xiao Zhao, the grandson of King Zhonglie of Anping, Xiao Yan, and the son of King Wenxian of Anping, Xiao Xuan. He was a member of the Xiao clan of Western Liang, listed in the family tree, and was also a close relative of Empress Xiao and Xiao Ying, or in other words, a close relative within five generations...

This is a noble family, they may be one of our own if they are beating around the bush!

"This... is truly attracting worldwide attention, a gathering of Jiangnan's best!" Xie Yingdeng sighed with a dry mouth. The situation was so complicated and stressful that his mind was in a mess.

Xiao Ying's face darkened as he solemnly warned, "The Purple-Faced Heavenly King is Nanyang Marquis' sworn brother, and Hun Tian Wudi is Nanyang Marquis's cousin. Moreover... they should have come into contact in recent years. Be extremely cautious in this battle!"

After saying this, he thought for a moment and said with a wry smile: "Do your best to incite rebellion or persuade the Marquis of Nanyang, no matter the cost!"

Once the Yun Xi Hai combination appears, not to mention the Sui army, no one and no army in the entire Jiangnan region can stop them. Even if Yuwen Chengdu comes, he will have to retreat!

I'm updating again early, mainly because Shadow himself can't wait... I really want to turn into an octopus and finish writing and updating it all at once... If 300,000 words don't make it to the shelves, there shouldn't be much left, so please support me! Thank you!
