Black Fairy, the master is a female ghost
Chapter 280: Retreat the Enemy
An hour later, outside the north gate of Luo City, corpses were piled up and blood was flowing everywhere.
Of the 150,000 soldiers in Luocheng, 80,000 had been shot dead here.
And from behind the wooden wall, arrows were still coming in from all directions.
Three rows of people shot continuously, and in one hour, more than one million arrows were fired.
The archers' hands were covered with blisters.
After the Luocheng defenders suffered heavy casualties, they finally dared not charge forward recklessly.
Two of the defending generals had already been shot dead in the chaos.
When the other two surviving guards saw this situation, they were afraid that even if they died to the last one, they would not be able to break out.
They had no choice but to give the order sadly, asking the soldiers to retreat and stop thinking about breaking out, and just wait to die in the city.
After dawn, Lu Xunhuan, dressed in ordinary soldier's clothes, brought two masters who were also dressed in ordinary soldier's clothes and went to the north of the city to take a look.
The situation at the scene was shocking.
He watched for a while, sighed slightly, and ordered: "Maintain a good defensive formation, clean up the battlefield, collect the arrows, and bury the enemy's bodies."
Then, he returned to the central army and transferred another 20,000 troops from the central army to the north of the city to help clean up the battlefield.
In the big tent, two masters sat with him.
Lu Xun Huan said to the person on his left, "Elder Liu, everything I told you before was true."
"There's a cursed formation on the ninth floor of the Demon Tower, disrupting the magnetic field of this world and affecting the communication between cultivators and the stars in the universe."
"So, everyone has reached the ninth level of the Qianyuan Realm and can't break through any further."
Elder Liu stroked his beard and said, "Oh, just based on your dream, I, the Taiqing Sect, actually believed it?"
Lu Xunhuan picked up the teapot and poured three cups of tea.
"Then can you explain why, after reaching the ninth level of the Qianyuan Realm, everyone can no longer break through to the Wuxiang Realm?"
Elder Liu picked up the teacup.
"After reaching the ninth level of the Qianyuan Realm, I can still feel the accumulation of immortal energy through daily practice, but I still can't complete the foundation building. Perhaps it's because the immortal energy required for foundation building is too much?"
Lu Xunhuan shook his head.
"That's not the case. Even if there are many, it can't be endless. I asked the Sect Master, and he has been at the ninth level of the Qianyuan Realm for more than 30 years."
"After more than thirty years, you still can't complete the foundation building?"
He then said to Elder Long on his right, "I will definitely investigate the murder of the world's top alchemy expert."
Elder Long sighed, "Alas, even if you find out everything, what can you do? You're not as strong as us. Can you avenge us?"
Lu Xun Huan said, "The motive of the man who destroyed the world's alchemy masters is very clear. He wants to weaken the world's immortals so that he can control the entire world in his hands."
Elder Long asked, "What's the point?"
Lu Xunhuan took a sip of tea and said, "To dominate the world."
He said to Elder Long, "Just think about it, the immortals in the world can no longer make progress, and that person's strength is extraordinary."
"One day he ran to Taiqingmen and ordered them to obey his orders. If they didn't, he would destroy them. Did Taiqingmen obey?"
Elder Long asked, "So, all the immortals in the world will become his thugs?"
Lu Xun Huan nodded: "A person who wants to dominate the world can't conquer it alone, he must have a group of people working for him."
"The various immortal families, especially the powerful ones, are his ideal helpers in enslaving the world."
Elder Long said, "It's terrifying."
Lu Xun Huan put down his teacup and said, "So, there's not much point in you two staying in the palace. You should go back to the mountain and practice formations with everyone."
"If a powerful enemy comes up the mountain in the future, we might still be able to fight back by relying on the formation and our collective strength."
Elder Liu took over the conversation and said, "Lord Lu, you are the commander of the Imperial Guard. How can you say that you don't want to protect His Majesty and the palace?"
Lu Xunhuan said, "I shouldn't say this, that tyrant..."
"Look at what Dongyan has become. The people are living in dire straits..."
Elder Liu chuckled, "How dare you say that? Aren't you afraid that the soldiers will hear it, or that I'll tell His Majesty when I get back?"
Lu Xunhuan also smiled: "You won't."
Elder Liu asked, "Why not?"
Lu Xun Huan touched his chin and said, "One day, I went to the warehouse and saw you, Elder, hiding in a room, trying to steal some cloth..."
Elder Liu's face was a little embarrassed. "That... discarded cloth is useless. I'll go get some to use so it doesn't go to waste. It doesn't count as stealing..."
Elder Long, who was standing nearby, was confused and asked, "Junior brother, you don't know how to sew, so why are you going to get some cloth?"
Elder Liu laughed: "Haha, make a mop..."
Lu Xun Huan changed the subject: "Okay, let's not talk about that anymore. Let's split up and ambush to see if the National Congress will invite immortal masters last week."
The three of them then separated, Elder Liu went to the mountain on the left, and Elder Long went to the mountain on the right.
Lu Xunhuan stayed in the center of the army, pretending to be an ordinary soldier, helping everyone move arrows and lift chevaux de frise.
About half an hour later, a fat old man came swaggering on the road.
Behind the barricades, a soldier shouted, "This road is blocked. Please take a detour."
The fat old man stopped and looked behind the barricades.
"Oh, my relatives are in Luocheng. Can you please let me go there?"
The soldier said, "Los Angeles is in the midst of a war. What are you doing in there? Go back, or you'll get yourself killed."
Naturally, the old man refused to leave.
"Why are you being unreasonable, kid? What's wrong with me, an old man, visiting a relative? If you can't make the decision, invite your General Zhengxi here. I'll talk to him myself. If I die, it won't be your fault."
The soldier said, "You can't just see the general whenever you want. I'm not letting you into the city for your own good."
The fat old man glared and said, "Are you saying that I don't know what's good for me? Call your General Zhengxi here. I won't leave unless you call him."
After saying that, he lay down on the ground like a spoiled child.
Lu Xunhuan was helping to carry a barricade and was passing by when he heard it.
He put down the barricade, walked over, and winked at the soldier, telling him to be quiet.
Then, he lay down on the barricade and said, "You old fool, are you done yet? Go back to the mountain quickly."
The old man heard someone scolding him, looked up, and was about to get angry, but unexpectedly saw Lu Xunhuan.
He quickly got up and said, "Hey, little brat, why did you come here to join the army?"
This old man was none other than Elder He from Feixian Sect.
Lu Xun Huan jumped onto the barricades and said, "Life is not easy, I just want to make a living. The Sixth Prince invites you from the Feixian Sect to assassinate the General Zhengxi."
Elder He smiled awkwardly: "No way, old man, I really am here to visit relatives."
Lu Xunhuan jumped off the horse again and jumped outside.
"Before we set out, we've already considered these possibilities and specially asked the ten greatest masters of the Taiqing Sect to hide in the army. If you guys show up, let's see if we can defeat them."
Elder He was stunned: "What? They invited the top ten masters?"
Lu Xun Huan drew his sword from its sheath: "Come, let me, a small soldier, test your ability."
Elder He rolled his eyes and said, "Stop messing around. With your limited abilities, what's your Huiyang Realm level?"
During the month that Lu Xunhuan had been stationed in Luocheng waiting, he had practiced day and night and had already broken through to the sixth level of Qianyuan Realm.
He lit up the fifth-level immortal sword and said, "Although the grade of the immortal sword is a little low, it is still no problem to beat you, old man. Is it the ninth level?"
Elder He laughed: "Haha, you..."
"Do I even need the ninth level? I can beat you to a pulp with my bare hands at the eighth level of the Qianyuan Realm."
Lu Xunhuan said, "That's what you said."
After saying that, he began to dance with his sword, and right from the start he displayed superb sword moves.
His long sword, carrying the strength of the sixth level of Qianyuan Realm, went very fast.
Elder He was caught off guard and his beard was cut off.
He flew back: "Hey, brat, you've become stronger?"
Lu Xun Huan withdrew his sword and retreated: "With my strength, I can only be a small soldier. How can the General of the Western Expedition be a mediocre person?"
"No matter how many of you come, please retreat immediately. Don't let your whole clan be wiped out. It won't look good."
Elder He rolled his eyes and said, "Are you really just a soldier?"
He looked at the army's flag fluttering in the wind, with a huge "Lu" character on it: "Could it be that you are the General who conquered the West?"
Lu Xunhuan smiled: "Do you think it's possible?"
He jumped onto the barricades and said, "Hurry up and leave, or our soldiers will be very ruthless. The arrows are raining down like a torrential rain. It will be very difficult for you to escape unscathed."
As the two were talking, another person came up the avenue. She was a woman with white hair and a youthful face.
She walked up to Elder He and asked, "Old man, what are you nagging about with this young man?"
Lu Xun Huan said, "Fairy, take the fat old man with you. We have made preparations here. You won't get away with anything. If you force your way in, I will go to Feixianmen to pay tribute to you every year."
After saying that, he jumped off the barricade and left.
After he left, the soldiers of Eastern Yan immediately swarmed forward.
Behind the chevaux de frise were powerful bows and crossbows.
The woman asked Elder He, "Who is this young man? How do you know me?"
Elder He said, "Let's go. We'll talk about it when we get back."
