Evil of all ages

Chapter 160 The army is coming
Do you have any apprentices?

Di Qingtian was afraid that Li Xunhuan would teach others how to create these extraordinary weapons.

“Those retired martial arts masters only take on apprentices to pass on their skills and knowledge. I’m so young, I haven’t had enough fun yet, how could I possibly take on apprentices so early?”

Huang Taichu replied.

"Could these surprise weapons be mass-produced?"

Di Qingtian finally asked the question he most wanted to ask.

"Mass production? What are you thinking?"

"The weapons I forge are incredibly powerful. You might think they can be made from ordinary black iron or special iron ore."

"Let me tell you, don't even think about it. You wouldn't understand even if I told you the specific materials. Just consider the materials you need to be even more precious than special meteorites."

Huang Taichu could tell what Di Qingtian was worried about.

However, for the sake of showing off, he only needs to use firearms by himself.

Why would I easily give it to others to use?

If any other type of firearms appears, then without a doubt, a transmigrator has come to this world.

Upon hearing this, Di Qingtian's worries completely dissipated.

Being unique is enough!

If it's not unique, what's the point of practicing martial arts?
Even Zhao Chuangjie, who was a half-step Grandmaster, is lying here.

"So you deliberately let the old ghost Wuxiang go, why?"

Di Qingtian asked.

“He’s a complete stranger, how could I possibly let him go on purpose?”

"The bullets needed for the anti-materiel Barrett heavy sniper rifle are special."

"When I venture out into the world, I carry plenty of other types of bullets, but I only carry two bullets for the Barrett anti-materiel sniper rifle."

"Otherwise, I would have taken out the anti-materiel Barrett heavy sniper rifle to show you, and fired a few shots to broaden your horizons."

"As for why I didn't use other surprise weapons to take down the old ghost Wuxiang, it's because the distance is too far."

"Besides the anti-materiel Barrett heavy sniper rifle, I do have other long-range attack weapons, but they are extremely powerful and their accuracy is far inferior to the anti-materiel Barrett heavy sniper rifle."

"I'm afraid that if I take it out, I'll kill you all too."

"After all, they used artillery shells, not bullets."

Huang Taichu said calmly.

Di Qingtian didn't know what a cannonball was or how it differed from a bullet, but since he understood that he hadn't intentionally let Wuxiang Old Ghost go, he stopped worrying about it.

At this moment, Feng Zizai took Yu Fei's Blood Shadow Axe.

Di Qingtian took the Blood Shadow Axe, knowing it was a unique weapon capable of piercing armor and harming those who practiced the Golden Bell Shield technique.

However, Yu Fei was killed by Li Xunhuan, so this surprise attack was naturally Li Xunhuan's spoils of war.

"No, you can have it."

"Apart from the surprise weapons I created myself, I have no use for other surprise weapons, nor do I value them."

When Huang Taichu saw Di Qingtian hand over the Blood Shadow Axe, he looked at him with disdain.

This was the first time Di Qingtian had ever seen anyone dislike a surprise attack.

However, considering that Li Xunhuan not only possessed many powerful and unique weapons, but also that each one was personally crafted by him, it's worth noting that he had many of them.

He certainly had the right to look down on such a master craftsman.

Li Xunhuan refused, and Di Qingtian didn't like this kind of weapon, so he turned to look at his friend.

Look at his friends, who wants him?

Jiang Wei, the water ghost, shook his head. The Blood Shadow Axe was so heavy that taking it underwater would only affect his agility in the water.

Wu Tianxing is a sharpshooter who prefers ranged attacks to close-quarters combat. He dislikes the Blood Shadow Axe and shakes his head in refusal.

Tang Yixing, the Thousand-Faced Young Master, makes a living by disguising himself. He wouldn't carry such a large Blood Shadow Axe unless it attracted attention.

Feng Zizai's sword was destroyed in the battle, so this Blood Shadow Axe is the best replacement.

However, he remembered that Yu Fei was a member of the Heavenly Axe Sect, and the Blood Shadow Axe belonged to the Heavenly Axe Sect.

As a ghostwriter, he has made quite a few enemies in his daily life. It is only because he has hidden his cultivation level that he has been able to live steadily until now.

If he were to provoke another sect, even one that was far away in the Eastern Shang Kingdom...

It seems unlikely that he can survive peacefully.

After much deliberation, he refused.

Seeing that his friends didn't want it, Di Qingtian tossed the Blood Shadow Axe to Ying Wu, telling him to keep it and find it a new owner later when he had time.

"This is the first time I've ever seen a cat with the character '王' (king) on ​​its head."

Di Qingtian saw the cat perched on Li Xunhuan's shoulder. This cat was not only cute, but it also had the character "王" (king) on ​​its forehead, making him chuckle. A tiger with a "王" on its head is nothing special, but a cat with one... well, that contrast was...

Da Bai thought Di Qingtian was mocking it, so it glared at Di Qingtian fiercely.

The cuter something is, the cuter it becomes when it gets fierce, making Di Qingtian almost want to pet the cat, but he resisted.

"That's what makes it special, and that's why I keep it."

Huang Taichu comforted Da Bai, trying to calm it down so that it could hide its fierce yet adorable demeanor.

Da Bai glared at Di Qingtian, then slid his limbs from his squatting position and continued to lie back on his shoulder.

Seeing that Tian Fugong had brought up all the horses they had hidden, he invited Li Xunhuan to go back and talk more.

Huang Taichu had no objection, pushed off slightly with his foot, floated over, and mounted a horse.

The others mounted their horses one after another. Di Qingtian and He Jiahan rode on the same horse because he had many questions for He Jiahan.

After cycling and asking around, Di Qingtian finally understood He Jiahan's situation.

He Jiahan did not leave without saying goodbye; she was forcibly taken away by her biological father who came looking for her.

Her biological father is Zhao Chuangshi, the older brother of Zhao Chuangjie, and also the leader of the Wei organization.

He is also a Grandmaster of Supreme Strength!
She was forced to become Mr. Kim of the Wei organization because her adoptive parents were in her hands.

"How much do you know about Duotian Village?"

Di Qingtian asked.

"That's the military, and all of the military's important matters are classified."

"Don't be fooled by my high position; I have no right to contact or command the military."

"Only the two leaders, the chief and the deputy, are qualified to command the army."

He Jiahan shook her head, indicating that she did not know about Duotian Village.

Upon hearing this, Di Qingtian was somewhat disappointed that he hadn't gotten the information he wanted, but he knew that He Jiahan wouldn't lie to him at this moment.

"Can you stay here and stay with me instead of leaving?"

Di Qingtian asked.

He Jiahan fell silent upon hearing this.

Upon seeing He Jiahan's silence, Di Qingtian knew that the debt of gratitude for raising her was greater than the debt of giving birth to her, and that He Jiahan would definitely return to Dongshang for the sake of her adoptive parents.

He stopped talking, because he knew he couldn't stop it, so he just quietly held He Jiahan in his arms.

He didn't know when He Jiahan would secretly leave, so he could only cherish the days he spent with her.

Just then, Yin Tianying arrived on horseback.

"My lord, something has happened. The army of Duotian Village has come down the mountain and captured a nearby county town."

Before the person even got close, Yin Tianying shouted.

Upon hearing this news, Di Qingtian's expression changed slightly.

"How many of them are there?"

Di Qingtian asked Yin Tianying.

“Their scouts reported that they have about 15,000 men.”

Yin Tianying replied.

Upon hearing that there were 15,000 men, Di Qingtian's expression became even more solemn. He said nothing more and immediately led everyone back quickly.

Upon returning to Jiushui County, they received another message.

The bandits from Kowloon Village and Chiming Village also came down from the mountain.

At the Prince's residence, Huang Taichu saw that Di Qingtian and his men were busy, but he was still carefree, eating and drinking as usual.

The next day

"My lord, the latest news is that the Eastern Merchant Army has captured three counties in succession. They have subdued the defeated soldiers, and their forces have grown to more than 20,000."

"Chiming Village captured one county town, and Jiulong Village captured three county towns. Seeing this, other bandit strongholds all came down the mountain to join in."

"It seems they've planned this all along, converging in one direction, as if preparing to attack the county town we're currently in."

Yin Tianying reported.

"You just said that Kowloon Walled City also captured three county towns?"

It would be strange if Di Qingtian wasn't surprised.

Duotian Village is entirely composed of Eastern Merchant Army troops. Speed ​​is of the essence in warfare. The Eastern Merchant Army can divide its forces to attack the county town and take down two county towns overnight without any problem.

But Kowloon Walled City was full of bandits, numbering only about 5,000. How could they compare to a real army?

In the same amount of time, they also captured three county towns. Isn't that strange?
