Su Yuchen thought about it and realized that these two were chosen ones. Although this was not a world of destiny, there was no logic to destiny. Even on a battlefield where there was no chance of survival, God would still give his favorite son a cheat code.

He smiled and said, "But I have confidence in them!"

How far is this place from Danyang?

"Less than two hundred li." The Way of Emptiness.

Su Yuchen got up and walked out of the cabin. Standing on the deck, he looked at the faint outline in the distance. His primordial spirit followed the mysterious energy, and a glint of light flashed in his eyes: "Found it!"

The primordial spirit stirred the seeds of the five elements in the five internal organs, and with the support of the omnipresent five elements in the primordial energy of heaven and earth, with a flick of the right hand, a ball of river water floated into the air, forming a water mirror in front of the two.

A flash of five-colored light appeared, and the scene on the deck appeared in the water mirror. Then the scene moved forward quickly, and when Xu Xingzhi's eyes blurred, the scene stopped again. He had already moved to the front of an ancient city, and the two characters 'Danyang' on the city gate were clearly visible.

The scene shifts, and the soldiers at the city gate have changed into the uniforms of Du Fuwei's Jianghuai Army. It seems that Yuwen Huaji had just left when Fu Gongyou arrived in Danyang, and the two sides were quite in sync.

The camera focused on two ragged thugs in the crowd queuing to enter the city. If you looked closely, you could tell that they were Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling.

The camera then rose higher and higher, soon looking down at Danyang. Su Yuchen shook his head after a moment, his eyes swirling with the image of lotus flowers, and said, "Du Fuwei hasn't arrived in Danyang yet, but these two lads have. Du Fuwei is not far away."

Xu Xingzhi stared blankly at the water mirror in front of him, and when he heard this, he came back to his senses and exclaimed, "Master Shi's supernatural powers make me admire you."

Su Yuchen shook his head, unconcerned, and said, "I've only just begun to explore this field, and right now I only have the ability to spy, which is of no help in defeating the enemy."

According to Su Yuchen's plan, the omnipresent Five Elements Qi in the world should be used as the power source, the Five Elements Divine Light as the link, and the Qi mechanism as the signal. Not only can one forcefully dial and spy on the other party from thousands of miles away, but one can also use the Five Elements Divine Light to control the Qi from thousands of miles away to condense the Qi into a true Qi handprint to capture and kill the opponent. This is the true manifestation of the Perfected Yuan Guang Technique.

But for now, it's just a thought. The vital energy of heaven and earth is right here, but my abilities are insufficient, so I can only put my ideas aside.

Su Yuchen waved his hand to disperse the water mirror and said, "Let's hurry to Danyang and not miss Du Fuwei."

Xu Xingzhi responded, and when he turned around, the Song Clan's boatmen knelt on the deck as if they had seen a deity. Without Xu Xingzhi's command, they rushed into the cabin and steered the large ship toward Danyang.

………………

Meanwhile, hundreds of miles away in Danyang, Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling wandered aimlessly through the streets of Danyang. After walking for a long time, the two casually huddled in a corner.

Kou Zhong said helplessly, "Now that Danyang has been destroyed, we can only find a way ourselves."

Xu Ziling looked at the hurried passersby and said calmly, "Before we come up with a solution, shouldn't we first appease our stomachs?"

Kou Zhong stood up, revealing a strong physique beneath his tattered clothes, and said, "Little Ling, rest here. Let's see what good things your Uncle Zhong has brought back for you."

After saying this, Kou Zhong laughed and walked towards the restaurant not far away. Xu Ziling shook his head, casually pushed open the courtyard gate behind him, and walked in without asking. It turned out that he had already used his aura to investigate, and the owner of this house had long since left with the war, leaving it an empty house.

A moment later, Kou Zhong walked in carrying large and small bags, casually complaining...

"My father's Jianghuai Army is rotten to the core. When they enter the city, they not only fail to pacify the people, but they also constantly cause trouble and create chaos. How can such an army conquer the world!"

"Well, that's all we have. Let's eat a little something, then change our clothes and go look for any secret codes left by Sister Su."

Just as Kou Zhong finished complaining, there was a knock at the door. The two men paused and looked at each other in surprise.

"You two lads, why don't you come and pay your respects to your old man?"

Chapter 374 Meeting Du Fuwei in Danyang

"You two brats, why aren't you paying your respects to your old man!"

"Dad!"

"Du Fuwei!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling turned around and ran away in perfect unison. But as soon as they turned around, they were terrified, because their father, Du Fuwei, whom they had been forced to acknowledge, was already standing not far behind them.

Just when the two thought they were doomed, a hint of surprise appeared on their faces. They looked at Du Fuwei and, instead of being afraid, they felt a sense of schadenfreude!

"You two brats, did you see your father lose his mind?" Du Fuwei frowned and said coldly.

Kou Zhong nudged Xu Ziling's shoulder and coughed, saying, "I wonder what brings you here, Father? Whatever it is, please forgive us for being unable to help!"

"Oh?" Du Fuwei raised an eyebrow and said strangely, "You two slippery brats, when did you become so bold! Do you really think I won't kill you?"

Kou Zhong said with a grin, "Ziling and I bet you can't kill us, Father! Not only can you not kill us, but you'll have to run away in a panic."

Du Fuwei sneered disdainfully, then laughed angrily, "Very well! Very well! Now let me see how you're going to make me flee in disgrace."

Xu Ziling pointed behind Du Fuwei and suggested, "Dad, why don't you take a look behind you?"

"Ha! Another one of these tricks!"

Du Fuwei shook his head dismissively and said:

"Do you think these little tricks will work? If we didn't value your talents, you wouldn't have escaped so easily last time."

Xu Ziling paused upon hearing this, then said helplessly, "But we really didn't lie this time. Father, why don't you take a look and then we'll talk?"

Du Fuwei snorted coldly, his right hand, which was behind his back, was tucked into his sleeve, ready to throw a punch the moment he turned around.

"You little brat, you tricked me again!" Du Fuwei suddenly turned around, looked at the unobstructed hall, and said angrily.

"what!!!"

Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling exchanged a glance, then looked at each other in bewilderment, staring at the hall behind Du Fuwei.

Kou Zhong pointed to a corner of the hall and said tremblingly, "Father...didn't you see it?"

Du Fuwei flicked his sleeve and frowned, saying, "Still playing these little tricks? Are you determined to exhaust my patience and then kill you yourselves?"

"My God. I never knew martial arts could be practiced to this level!" Kou Zhong couldn't help but groan, as if he had seen something incredible.

Xu Ziling nodded, staring blankly at what was behind Du Fuwei.

………………

Du Fuwei suppressed his anger, remembering the important matter he had come for, and narrowed his eyes, saying firmly, "I want to speak with Kou Zhong alone for a few minutes."

Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling exchanged a glance and shook their heads in unison.

Kou Zhong said, "Right now, the safest place for us is actually by your side, Father. What do you want to say, Father? I won't hide it from Xiao Ling."

"Oh?" Du Fuwei narrowed his eyes, and a sense of aura locked onto the two of them.

Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling glanced behind him, but instead of retreating, they joined forces to unleash their energy and try to fight against Du Fuwei. For a moment, the two sides were evenly matched.

Du Fuwei's aura vanished instantly upon contact, and he said disdainfully, "If I wanted to, even if the two of you joined forces, you wouldn't last fifteen rounds against me. Do you believe that?"

Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling looked at the nonchalant Du Fuwei and nodded repeatedly, expressing their admiration! They had no choice but to admit it; they had just used all their strength, yet they could still feel Du Fuwei's inexhaustible aura, which was something they couldn't possibly contend with.

"Fine! Since that's the case, I might as well be frank. Kou Zhong, you are willing to acknowledge me as your father and change your surname to Du. If so, everything in the Jianghuai Army is yours. I can even help you conquer the world and become emperor."

Kou Zhong asked in surprise, "You don't want to be emperor?"

Xu Ziling looked at Du Fuwei and suddenly said, "No, he doesn't want to. There's no desire in his eyes."

………………

"But he probably won't be able to become emperor!"

A sigh echoed from inside the hall.

"Who?"

"Master Shi!"

Du Fuwei was startled. He flicked his right sleeve, which was behind his back, and the sleeve slammed behind him like a giant battering ram. At the same time, he suddenly darted forward and shot towards the outside of the hall.

Suddenly, Du Fuwei's vision blurred, and the space in front of him twisted layer by layer, creating a scene that made him want to vomit blood. At the same time, a terrifying aura confused his senses, and he lost all sense of the outside world.

"The Great Demonic Technique!"

Du Fuwei was startled and stopped trying to retreat. He tucked his hands into his sleeves and flicked them, like an eagle spreading its wings. His sleeves emitted a terrifying whistling sound, and his true energy slammed into his back like a cannonball.

At the same time, having abandoned his five senses and relying solely on the power of his mind, Du Fuwei flicked his wrist, which was hidden in his sleeve, and two fine steel rings on his wrists shot out with a whoosh, crashing into the hall.

After a series of attacks, the bizarre and distorted sensation before him finally dissipated. Du Fuwei closed his sleeves, and with the enhancement of his true energy, his sleeves became as indestructible as a copper wall or iron fortress.

The steel ring that had been shot out flew back in the next second. It was completely lacking in power, yet it was incredibly fast. Du Fuwei only caught a glimpse of it in his eyes.

He immediately spread his sleeve, revealing his most proficient technique, "Universe in the Sleeve." His sleeve seemed to open into a black hole, allowing the ray of light to rush in.

Before he could even rejoice, a sharp "clang" rang out, and Du Fuwei's sleeves suddenly burst open, exploding into shreds that flew in the wind. The steel rings on his wrists shattered one by one, embedding themselves in the pillars on either side of the hall with a series of "thud thud thud..." sounds.

Du Fuwei snorted coldly and took nine steps back, leaving deep footprints on the ground. He then plopped down on the chair behind him, and the force dissipated, allowing him to stop.

Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling watched with great interest, but in reality, all these changes had been completed in the blink of an eye.

Du Fuwei felt a surge of internal energy pressing down on his shoulders like a giant hand, preventing him from rising from his chair; at the same time, the same energy was supporting him, preventing him from falling off the chair. This contradictory feeling, with its opposing forces, left his internal energy completely unable to cope.

"Why is Steward Du acting this way? You should know that I currently have no intention of killing you."

A voice sounded softly. Du Fuwei raised his head, his face flushed, and looked at the seat at the head of the table, where a scholar and a monk sat and stood, just like ordinary people.

Kou Zhong groaned and said, "Father, I really didn't lie to you!"

“Stone Dragon!!! Heavenly Demon Great Art!! Who are you?!” Du Fuwei roared.

Su Yuchen's gaze turned cold, and in an instant, it was as if winter had descended upon the hall. Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling couldn't help but shiver, and Du Fuwei felt a chill run down his spine, a bone-chilling cold rising from the depths of his heart.

"Giving you a chance doesn't mean you can provoke me recklessly. I wouldn't hesitate to kill you."

"do not want!"

"Master Shi, please show mercy!"

Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling stopped them in unison.

Chapter 375 The Astounding Immortal in the Southern Suburbs

After a long time.

"Alright! What does Daoist Shi want?" Du Fuwei composed himself and asked coldly.

Su Yuchen nodded, and the chill in the room dissipated.

"Very good! You made a smart choice! I hope you'll be even smarter from now on!"

"I'm giving you a chance! Starting from this moment, you can leave here and gather your troops. No matter how many you can gather, I'll be waiting for you in the southern suburbs of Danyang tomorrow morning."

"After tomorrow, I hope you can recognize your own shortcomings and obediently surrender."

"Don't try to escape, and don't expect anyone to save you. This is the last chance I'm giving you."

"If you don't surrender after tomorrow, you and your Jianghuai army will be buried with you! You can leave now."

Du Fuwei felt the restraints lifted and walked silently towards the door. Su Yuchen calmly watched his figure disappear, then looked at Kou Zhong: "Do you still want to be emperor?"

Kou Zhong frowned and said, "What does Master Shi mean by this? Didn't Master Shi say that you don't care who becomes emperor?"

Su Yuchen nodded and said, "That's right! I don't care who becomes emperor. But now that I've made my choice, Kou Zhong, do you think you still have a chance?"

Kou Zhong gritted his teeth and asked, "May I ask who Master Shi chose?"

Su Yuchen sighed, "I chose Song Shidao."

"I will never admit defeat, I, Kou Zhong, will never be manipulated by anyone!" With that, Kou Zhong turned and left without looking back.

Su Yuchen smiled and said to Xu Ziling beside him, "Go! Spend some time with him. Tomorrow, I'll make him face reality."

After watching Xu Ziling leave, Su Yuchen said, "Mr. Xu, let's stay here for the night and return to Yangzhou after dealing with the Jianghuai Army tomorrow."

Kou Zhong is absolutely unwilling to admit defeat. He is determined to join forces with Du Fuwei to kill you tomorrow in the southern suburbs of Danyang.

[After Tomorrow, a gigantic palm, hundreds of feet long, has appeared in the southern suburbs of Danyang. The palm print is a foot deep, and the palm lines are clearly visible, resembling mountains and rivers.]

[After tomorrow, blood will flow like rivers in the southern suburbs of Danyang, tens of thousands will be silenced, and the world will be filled with fear.]

………………

The next morning, Danyang City was quiet, as all the Jianghuai troops had already retreated to the southern plains the previous night.

Su Yuchen led Xu Xingzhi on foot to the southern suburbs. The two walked very fast, and in no time they could see a dark army in the distance, numbering at least 20,000.

In the center of the army, looking at Su Yuchen and Xu Xingzhi who were walking towards him, Du Fuwei's expression was extremely ugly: "He really came alone? Does he think that he can kill his way through 20,000 troops and take my head by himself?"

Beside him, Kou Zhong, mounted on his horse, grinned maliciously and said, "Didn't we already scout around last night? There are no troops hiding nearby. Since he's so confident, I'd like to see what kind of style the number one person in the world has."

“Xiao Zhong!!!” Xu Ziling frowned.

Kou Zhong suddenly turned around, his eyes bloodshot, as if tears of blood were about to fall at any moment: "Xiao Ling, don't try to persuade me! I don't want this either! But I have no choice!"

Xu Ziling sighed, "Since Master Shi dared to come, how could he not be confident!" After saying that, Xu Ziling spurred his horse aside and said no more.

Kou Zhong whirled around, raised his right hand, mentally estimated the distance, and shouted, "Fire the arrows!!!"

In an instant, a volley of arrows was unleashed. The sharp whistling of the arrows and the dense, dark mass of arrows obscured the sky, like a surging river, covering the entire land.
