Imperial henchmen? Never been struck by the sword of the Six Doors (a secret police agency).

Xuanyuan Palace

When the Xuanyuan army appeared, their momentum was completely opposite to that of the Jiuli army.

That Jiuli army followed the Lord of War and the Human Emperor throughout the entire battle, and finally fought a bloody battle with the Demon Clan.

They were not only battle-hardened elites, but their struggles against the demons also influenced their understanding of blood and qi.

Their blood energy is not only imbued with malevolent energy, transforming into blood demons, but it also indiscriminately devours the blood energy of all living beings for its own use.

That army was the kind that left nothing but desolation wherever it went.

It perfectly matches the aura of the warlord.

This also shows just how monstrous the demon race is.

To be able to fight a back-and-forth battle against such a group of battle-hardened elites.

Keep in mind that the demons ran into this elite group the moment they appeared.

Without any trials or tribulations, it encountered one of the world's overlords the moment it was born.

Although we lost, we still achieved honors despite the defeat.

Of course, the Jiuli tribe was also quite monstrous.

Relying on his own vital energy and resisting the erosion of the demonic realm, he managed to kill the demons.

However, the Xuanyuan army had a different aura than them.

They are born with spiritual insight and have an innate affinity with all spirits.

This gave them an extraordinary air about them, and their innate closeness to nature also endowed them with a compassionate and empathetic quality.

Any one of these people, if placed in the future, would be a model of virtue.

The discipline of the Xuanyuan army was also not a concern for the Xuanyuan clan; it's just that what you can't have is always the best.

The Xuanyuan clan did indeed covet the Jiuli tribe.

Because the Xuanyuan army and the Jiuli tribe are two extremes.

The Xuanyuan army will not take any of the common people's belongings, will not bully the tribe's civilians, will be dutiful and fearless, and will be absolutely loyal.

These are all advantages, but there are also disadvantages.

Sometimes, Xuanyuan could not command his large army.

For example, if orders are sometimes inappropriate, the army will disobey.

For example, the Xuanyuan clan would have them hunt to replenish their food supplies, but if it was the season when the animals needed to rest, the army would not move.

Or, when it is necessary to cross other tribes, in order not to disturb the civilians or disturb their rest, the army will waste extra time and bypass the tribes.

When a tribe suffers a disaster, they will help other tribes first before marching on their own.

Therefore, wherever Xuanyuan and his army went, they were met with love and praise.

This tradition continued until the Spring and Autumn Period.

Every war must have a just cause.

Yin Tang was the same; he would consult divination before each expedition, and would only send out troops after receiving divine permission.

Moreover, each time, troops would only be dispatched if one of the following criteria was met: benevolence, righteousness, or virtue.

Therefore, after the collapse of the social order, there was a saying that there were no righteous wars in the Spring and Autumn Period.

The Nine Li army of the Lord of War is the complete opposite.

They are not interested in morality, nor in the adoration of other tribes.

However, they would not bully or take anything from ordinary people. The reason is simple: bullying the weak is against their principles, and they look down on what ordinary people have.

If you're going to take something, take the best.

Although they would not bully civilians, once they picked up weapons, they became warriors, and they would exterminate any enemy they faced.

Moreover, they are extremely devoted to their leader.

They did whatever the leader told them to do.

In other words, if the leaders possess the spirit of Xuanyuan, then they will transform into the Xuanyuan army.

If the leaders have a murderous nature, then their army will become a ferocious force.

Of course, no matter how things change, they will not become a group of humanoid armies that only know how to slaughter civilians, bully the weak, and cowardly bully the cowardly, like beasts.

The reason is very simple: such a useless person cannot become a leader recognized by them.

True strength comes from within, not from violence.

This is the belief that the Jiuli army holds.

At this moment, the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden looked at this large army and felt reassured.

Unlike the Xuanyuan clan, who were somewhat tempted by the Jiuli tribe, the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden preferred to use the Xuanyuan army.

Because they are compatible with all spirits, they are capable of altering the celestial phenomena on the battlefield.

If Bai Qi and Li Jing knew, they would be envious.

They would gladly give any elite force from ancient times a unit, even if it meant sending more foreign tribes to surround the dynasty.

"Wow, our army has arrived too."

Xuanyuan Ba ​​looked at the warriors in front of her, her eyes shining.

"Three hundred thousand personal guards, that's perfect."

The Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden looked at the scene before her, her eyes flickering.

The Xuanyuan army was different from the kind of poorly equipped tribal warriors that people imagine in later generations.

They were wearing heavy armor made of cloud-like gold and iron.

The armor of the Xuanyuan tribe is the only armor that doesn't feel like paper when facing the Jiuli tribe.

Because the clouds, rosy clouds, gold, and iron can also receive the blessing of all spirits.

The Jiuli tribe cannot be cut down in a short time.

The swords they wore at their waists were all made of Haishu iron.

Hai Shu Iron is a treasure that only appears when it encounters the first glimmer of light from the sky and accumulates over time.

This kind of iron can be used to forge top-tier celestial soldiers.

However, the Xuanyuan clan directly used it to forge swords for their army.

This was done to enhance their combat effectiveness and survival rate.

As dawn breaks over the sea, the clouds and the sea of ​​clouds mutually reinforce each other, further enhancing their combat power.

The Xuanyuan army is no less powerful in combat, but they are somewhat lacking in physical strength.

"Soldiers."

The Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden looked at the Xuanyuan army and carefully considered her words before speaking.

"Lady Xuan Nu, please speak freely about your thoughts."

The head of the guards was accompanied by pleasant chuckles from below.

The Xuanyuan army has two deputy generals, one of whom is Long Wei, the totem of the Xuanyuan tribe.

Moreover, Yinglong was a capable general of the Xuanyuan clan, so the male deputy general was the Dragon Guard.

Another one was the Sparrow Guard. At that time, the Xuanyuan tribe had a good relationship with the Vermilion Bird, and the female deputy general was given the title of Sparrow.

At this moment, the light laughter of the Sparrow Guard eased the tension of the originally solemn army considerably.

There's no need to be so tense since there's no formidable enemy at hand.

“If you are reflected, then the Jiuli tribe must also be reflected.”

The moment the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden spoke, the previously relaxed atmosphere became tense.

In the eyes of the Xuanyuan warriors, the Jiuli tribe was just a bunch of brutes.

These brutes must be defeated and reformed.

"I have a plan."

The Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden spoke calmly.

"what's the plan?"

The guard countered with a question.

"Golden juice fell from the sky."

The Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden spoke slowly.

The scene fell silent for a moment.

"Hahaha!"

"Golden juice?"

"Damn it?"

"Lady Xuan Nu, is it true?"

In an instant, bursts of laughter echoed through the army.

They value benevolence and righteousness, and treat everyone else like gentlemen.

But in ancient times, a gentleman was not someone who was easy to bully.

When faced with something that angers them, they will retaliate and swear.

The Xuanyuan army was like that.

If the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden used this move against any other tribe, the Xuanyuan army would be furious and rebuke her.

But the Jiuli tribe is different.

These are mortal enemies; seeing them suffer makes me happy.

The more disgusting they are, the better.

It's said that the two tribes have a love-hate relationship, and when Junqi arrived, he could only mutter, "No wonder he's such a bad friend."

When a close friend hears that their best friend has eaten shit, their first reaction is naturally to burst into laughter.

Moreover, while the Xuanyuan warriors are generally gentlemen, they also possess the heroic spirit of those who came from military backgrounds.

Upon hearing this, everyone echoed in agreement.
