Wu Gengji, I will become Zi Yu's apprentice at the beginning! ! !

Wang Hun raised his hand to signal everyone to leave. In the empty meeting hall, the flickering light of the candles cast mottled shadows on the stone walls. He climbed up the high wall of the Hades City alone. The dusk was as dark as ink. On the southern skyline, the outline of the huge rocks of the fortress group seemed to be vaguely visible, like a hideous scar across the sky and earth, cutting through the originally peaceful dusk.

He stared at the shadow, his thoughts surging. The wind blew the water vapor from the distant Styx, with a hint of salty taste. Until a pair of warm hands gently covered his palms, the familiar touch made him slightly startled.

"Are you worried about the war again?" Alan's voice was like a spring breeze, mixed with the water vapor of the Styx. She stood beside him, her eyes gently fell on his slightly tired face, and then gently draped her cloak over his shoulders, "You always say that you want to protect this land, but you forget that you are also flesh and blood."

Wang Hun turned his head and met the candlelight reflected in Alan's eyes. The warm light seemed to dispel the haze in his heart. His fingertips gently brushed the silver ornaments on Alan's temples. They were souvenirs they bought when they traveled to Fantasy Island together. At this moment, they were glowing softly in the twilight.

With a tired but gentle smile on his lips, he whispered, "Once we defeat the Norse gods, I will accompany you to Fantasy Island to watch the ebb and flow of the tide, and we will never be entangled in war again."

He put his arm around Alan's shoulders and turned to walk towards the lights under the city wall. The lights in the city gradually lit up, like stars falling on earth, reflecting the people's desire for peace. However, in the twilight behind him, the giant stone fortress in the south seemed to still stand silently in the night, like a dormant giant beast, ready to set off a bloody storm at any time.

Watching A Lan's figure disappear around the corner of the street, Wang Hun took a deep breath, turned around and called his personal guards with a firm gaze: "You must set off for the God Clan immediately. When you meet Senior Fuxi, you must sincerely ask him to ask the two Saint Kings Zhui Ri and Tian Kui to come to help. Remember, Senior Fuxi needs to stay with the God Clan to prevent the Western God Clan from taking the opportunity to counterattack." The soldiers saluted with their fists, and after taking the military tokens, they quickly disappeared into the night.

After a moment of hesitation, Wang Hun called several other soldiers, and his tone became more serious: "You go to Fantasy Island as soon as possible to invite Shi Ji and the Weapon City for support. Tell Shi Ji that this battle is related to the survival of the East, and I hope she can help us with her Qi Refining Technique." After receiving the order, the soldiers immediately jumped on their horses, and the sound of horse hooves broke the silence of the night.

Not long after, the soldiers who went to Fantasy Island sent back the news: Lady Shi Ji had agreed to perform Qi Refining Technique and personally bring the Weapon City and the elite troops of Fantasy Island directly to the vicinity of the southern fortress to relieve the worries of the assault troops. Upon hearing this, Wang Hun's eyes flashed with a trace of relief. He took out the God of Weapons' Blade, and his fingertips unconsciously rubbed the handle of the God of Weapons' Blade at his waist, as if he was accumulating some kind of power.

At the combat meeting ten days later, the atmosphere in the meeting hall was solemn. Zhui Ri and Tian Kui arrived on time, and the pressure from the gods radiating from them intertwined with the murderous aura of the Hades generals, colliding to create invisible sparks in the air.

Everyone sat in front of a huge paper map and discussed the battle plan in detail. Some proposed a frontal attack, while others advocated a flanking attack. The arguments were one after another, but they were all in good order.

After a long negotiation, Wang Hun suddenly stood up, pressed his palm heavily on the map, and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, the Western Gods have invaded our homeland and attempted to turn the East into their land of slavery. If we don't repel them today, our descendants will live in dire straits in the future!" His voice was like a loud bell, shaking the candlelight, "Are you willing to let your children become slaves of God? Are you willing to watch this land that gave birth to us being trampled on?"

"We won't accept this! We will never accept this!" The roar of the crowd almost blew away the dome of the council hall, and every face was filled with indignation and determination.

Suifeng Qiwu was the first to stand up, with the curved sword at her waist half an inch unsheathed. The cold light reflected the blazing fighting spirit in her eyes: "Please give the order, sir! We are willing to be the vanguard and flatten the thieves' nest!"

Wang Hun nodded, glanced at everyone, and slowly said: "Now the enemy has built a solid fortress in the south, and with the help of the dark warriors, a frontal attack may not be effective. We must form a raiding force to break their defenses with lightning speed!"

"I wonder which general your Excellency plans to appoint to lead this raid?" The Hades general Mu Wu expressionlessly asked in a deep voice. Under the shadow of his hood, his eyes were as deep as a dark pool.

Wang Hun answered without hesitation: "I have decided to personally lead the assault force with Wu Geng to boost the morale of the troops! Suifeng Qiwu and Mu Wumiao will be in charge of coordinating the affairs of the Hades Clan for the time being. They must stabilize the rear."

"I've been looking forward to giving them a head-on blow!" Wu Geng slapped the table and stood up, the colorless divine power lines on his forehead glowing faintly, "Let those Western gods see that we Orientals are not soft persimmons that can be bullied by anyone!"

Suifengqiwu and Muwumuyan immediately stood up and clasped their fists together in response: "As you command! We will defend the rear to the death and not let the enemy take advantage of us!"

Wang Hun turned to look at Zhui Ri and Tian Kui, and said earnestly, "We need two more Saint Kings of the God Clan to join us in this operation. I wonder..."

Zhui Ri raised his hand to interrupt, his expression as calm as ice: "No need to say more, since you are here, you should do your best to help. If the East is destroyed, the next target of the Western God System will be our God Clan. How could we not know the truth that the lips and teeth are cold?"

Tian Kui nodded heavily, his voice like a bell: "I don't want to see the new world destroyed again, I must do it! The Black Dragon Rebellion has caused suffering to the people, today we must not let the Western God System repeat the same mistake!"

Hearing this, Wang Hun felt warm in his heart and continued to select his generals: "Death Eyes, Chilling Wind, Haunted Forest, Dancing Wild Knife, Stars with Tears, and several generals who have risen in recent years, all will join the assault force. In addition, 10,000 of the most elite soldiers should be selected from each department, and each of them must be able to fight ten people at once!" Everyone nodded, with a stronger desire to fight in their eyes.

At this time, Zongheng Tianxia suddenly spoke up, with a hint of doubt and unwillingness in his tone: "Why is there no mission for me? Do you think I am not strong enough?"

Wang Hun waved his hands and explained: "Not really. The Western Gods are full of tricks and are likely to attack us from behind when we attack. The Hades City is our foundation and cannot be lost. Therefore, you and my master Zi Yu and others need to stay in the Hades City to guard against the enemy's attack. This mission is extremely important and only warriors like you can take on this important task!"

Zongheng Tianxia suddenly realized and immediately accepted the order: "Understood! Senior Ziyu and I will defend the Ming Clan City to the death. If the enemy invades, we will make sure they never return!"

Zi Yu stood in the shadows, expressionless but firm, and said: "My sword only fights for the weak, and I can continue to kill Western gods. If they dare to come, I will let them see the power of Eastern swordsmanship."
