The First Tyrant of Daxia

Chapter 4631 Pulling a scapegoat

"Master, I am willing to serve as the commander in chief, but I am too weak to take on such a big responsibility."

Zhou Feibi said this, shaking his head helplessly and sighing, looking like he was thinking about the internal affairs of the sect, which made Li Hongguang frown, not knowing what Zhou Feibi was up to.

Before Li Hongguang could speak again, Zhou Feibi's eyes suddenly fell on Wei Lin: "How about this, Sect Master? Why don't you ask me to go with Wei Lin to lead the battle? If there is anything I don't understand, I can also ask Wei Lin for advice."

Wei Lin pointed at his nose in astonishment: "What did you say? Me? Everyone in the Hongguang Sect knows that I am a mess when it comes to arranging troops and battle formations. Asking me to go with you to command the troops in front of the battlefield will not help at all." Everyone avoided this kind of hard job, for fear of being caught and made the commander in front of the battlefield, and then losing their lives.

Now Zhou Feibi was just fine, as he was pulled into the relationship with Wei Lin. He felt that being close to Zhou Feibi before was a bad thing. If he had known this earlier, he should not have paid any attention to him.

Li Hongguang originally had no intention of asking his own disciples to go, and only sent Zhou Feibi to join the front line of the Western sects to serve as cannon fodder while reducing the strength of the Great Xia Empire.

But when Zhou Feibi mentioned Wei Lin, Li Hongguang couldn't help but think of the incident some time ago when Wei Lin was so brave that he drove the Da Xia soldiers out of Baihui Sect. Since Wei Lin was able to drive away the Da Xia soldiers back then, he must be able to do it now.

What the Western sects lacked when facing the Great Xia soldiers was experience, and Wei Lin was just the right person to make up for it.

Thinking of this, Li Hongguang agreed without hesitation: "No problem, Wei Lin, you and Zhou Feibi will go to the front line together, and serve as commanders in the front line to catch the Great Xia Empire off guard!" Wei Lin was so anxious that he almost jumped up, but before he could open his mouth to beg for mercy, he asked Li Hongguang to revoke his order.

Zhou Feibi came forward happily and grasped Wei Lin's hand: "Great Wei Lin, thank you for taking care of me during this period. How could I forget you when I had such a good opportunity? If we have the chance to make a contribution, we should do it together."

Li Hongguang was deeply moved by this friendship: "Great! If the disciples of Hongguang Sect can be so united and care about each other, then our Hongguang Sect will definitely be the best among the Western sects in the future."

Wei Lin had no words to express his grievances. He never expected Zhou Feibi to be so stupid that he couldn't even see the pros and cons of the sect leader's arrangement. He really thought this was a good thing.

However, with the sect master beside him, he could not raise any objections and could only follow Zhou Feibi's footsteps to the outside of the western sect group to participate in the discussion meeting of the commander in front of the formation.

Zhou Feibi breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Li Hongguang agreed. Otherwise, he would have to go to the battlefield alone and would not know how he died. Swords and knives have no eyes. Even if the Daxia soldiers consciously avoided hurting him, accidents were inevitable.

With Wei Lin's company, things felt much better. As long as Li Hongguang still had a conscience, he would not ignore them.

When he actually arrived at the Western Sects' meeting, Zhou Feibi realized that he had overestimated the thinking of these old guys in weighing the pros and cons. The total number of commanders and disciples in front of the battlefield was less than 200,000.

You know, these are disciples sent by nearly ten Western sects. Zhou Feibi has always believed that there must be at least nearly one million disciples on the battlefield, so he was in a hurry to meet the emperor.

As it turns out, it seems that the Western sects still find it difficult to change their bad habits, and most of them still want to look around on their own.

The meeting lasted less than an hour before Li Hongguang made up his mind to set the time for the invasion of the Great Xia Empire to three days later. By then, all the people on the battlefield would launch the first round of offensive against the Great Xia Empire.

None of the old guys from the Western sects raised any objections. After all, these disciples were just cannon fodder, experimental subjects sent to test the garrison strength of the Great Xia Empire. If they died, they died. They would not have any extra thoughts.

After the meeting was over, Wei Lin angrily found Zhou Feibi, grabbed his collar and asked, "Tell me! Why do you want to drag me into such a dangerous duty as the commander in the battlefield? Do you really want me to die with you?"

Zhou Feibi was a master at playing dumb. He looked harmless, frowned and asked, "Great Wei Lin, what nonsense are you talking about? This is a great opportunity to make a contribution. Don't forget that among all the Western sects, no one knows the Great Xia Empire better than me, and no one knows Qin Yun better than me!"

"If we can take advantage of this opportunity to kill a few powerful men, even those at the level of the chief, then the sect master will definitely reward us handsomely. You are the elder of the Hongguang Sect, and I am the powerful man. What's wrong with that?"

When Wei Lin heard this, he instantly retracted some of the strength in his hands and stared at Zhou Feibi in disbelief. The last time he faced Qin Yun, he was still extremely timid and even quickly had the idea of retreating. He relied on some courage to reluctantly talk to him and said a few words to him.

On the other hand, Zhou Feibi had no intention of backing down and said bluntly that they were no match for Qin Yun, as if he was certain that the other party would not make a move. At that time, Wei Lin did not notice anything special, but now thinking back, this was exactly how Zhou Feibi understood Qin Yun.

After understanding, Wei Lin's attitude took a 180-degree turn: "Zhou Feibi, I've been optimistic about you! Tell me, do you have any plans? This is a good opportunity for us to make a contribution!"

Zhou Feibi rolled his eyes and said with a wicked smile: "Of course, listen to my arrangements when the time comes. I will definitely let you pick up a few heads of Daxia soldiers and when you reward them, don't forget me."

"That's great!" Wei Lin laughed loudly. "I have long wanted to deal with this hateful Great Xia Empire. Even if you don't ask me to be the commander in chief today, I will take the initiative to ask to go with you!"

Forcing himself to suppress his smile, Zhou Feibi nodded firmly, thinking that Wei Lin was so easy to deceive, even though he was a powerful figure in the Hongguang Sect.

When the time comes and he goes to the front of the formation, all he has to do is to continuously increase the fluctuation of his own spiritual power until the Great Xia Empire discovers his existence, and then he can find a corner to watch the show. As for Wei Lin, he can't care.

At the same time, on the other side, at the Wudanzong position.

Qin Yun led the Xuanhuang Army and marched towards the enemy sect's position in a mighty manner, intending to wipe them out once and for all. However, the lag of the Beast Taming Technique took effect again when they were dozens of miles away from the Wudan Sect.

Chi Xiao sent back a second message: "Your Majesty, Wudan Sect is the fulcrum of the barrier, but..."

As time passed too quickly, Chi Xiao's speech speed also became extremely fast. Qin Yun could not hear clearly what the other party said. He could only be sure that Wudan Sect was the fulcrum of the barrier.
