Chapter 1301: Liu Huifeng
“Nowadays, the stronghold of Dashuo Dynasty’s army is covered by a huge array. We can only vaguely perceive the number of cultivators gathered in the fortress. It seems that it is not much more than You Rong City. As for the specific situation, we don’t know yet.” Lei Ge said slowly.
Hearing this, several other people showed surprised expressions.
“However, Dashuo Fortress is also like us. Reinforcements are constantly gathering. It seems that a big battle is inevitable. According to my estimation, it will take half a month at most and 4-5 days at least. A large-scale battle will definitely break out between the two sides.” Lei Ge added after a pause.
A hint of strangeness flashed in Liu Ming’s eyes.
This battle would obviously involve many Mystic Comprehending State powerhouses. With his current strength, he might not be sure to retreat unscathed.
The faces of the other people were not very good-looking. Obviously, they all had the same thoughts as Liu Ming.
“You all don’t have to worry. Once the battle starts, we 5 families will definitely unite to advance and retreat together. Even if we encounter the mighty Mystic Comprehending State, we will have a little more leeway.” Lei Ge said confidently.
Hearing this, the faces of the other 3 were at ease slightly.
Among the people present, Lei Ge was the highest in cultivation, which was the Celestial State later stage while everyone else was about the same as Liu Ming, which was the Celestial State intermediate stage. If the 5 of them teamed up, it was indeed possible to compete with the mighty Mystic Comprehending State for a while.
Liu Ming’s eyes flickered slightly. He looked around, and all the small groups around him looked the same.
At this moment, there was a commotion among the cultivators in the hall. A side door of the hall opened, and a silver-haired old man walked in slowly.
This old man was dressed in a green robe. His complexion was slightly sallow. His eyes shone with a fierce light.
“This person is the current family master of the Liu Family. Liu Huifeng.” Lei Ge said in a low voice, waved his hand, and put away the purple light curtain beside him.
Liu Ming’s gaze flashed, and Mo Tian’s cold snort suddenly sounded in his mind. Liu Ming couldn’t help being moved.
At this moment, 30 family masters in the hall stood up one after another. The sounds were scattered, “Greetings, Family Master Liu.”
“Okay, please have a seat.” The silver-haired old man strode to the main seat, sat down, and said with a faint smile.
All the family masters in the hall took their seats one after another. They all looked at the silver-haired old man.
“Everyone, the rebellion of the 3 states established themselves as the Dashuo Dynasty. The Demon Emperor is furious and ordered to completely defeat the opponent and quench the kindling flame of the rebellion! I’m very grateful that all family masters can rush here in the shortest possible time.” After Liu Huifeng sat down, he paused and said.
Although it was some meaningless courteous words, everyone present was Celestial State cultivator with deep scheme, so they of course wouldn’t show impatience at this time.
“Senior Liu is thinking very highly of us. Since Dashuo Dynasty has decided to rebel against our central imperial, sooner or later it will launch attacks on Zang State, Yu State and other places. Naturally, we will do our best to a.s.sist Senior Liu to crush them completely.” A middle-aged man in a fiery red robe stood up and said with a smile.
Several people besides the middle-aged man also gave their approval one after another.
Liu Ming showed a hint of strangeness in his eyes.
He had seen this middle-aged man in a red robe once before. He was the family master of the first family of Zang State, Hu Yan Family. Compared with Qing Family and Lei Family, his family was even more powerful.
At this moment, there were 8 people surrounding the middle-aged man in a red robe, which was the largest small circle in the hall.
Lei Ge snorted with a look of disdain.
Liu Ming raised his eyebrows slightly. He took a glance at Lei Ge and quickly looked away. The Lei Family and the Hu Yan Family are quite close in power. There were conflicts between the 2 families, so the relationship was very bad. This matter was well-known in Zang State.
Although Lei Ge’s voice was not loud, everyone around heard it. Even the middle-aged man in a red robe glanced at him with a cold look.
Perhaps because of the presence of the Family Master Liu, neither the middle-aged man in a red robe nor Lei Ge made any further moves.
“It’s great if you think so! I believe that as long as we work together, we will be able to defeat the Dashuo rebels soon. By then, the Demon Emperor will reward you for your merits.” Liu Huifeng said with a smile as if he didn’t see it.
“Senior Liu, how many people did this group of rebels gather in the fortress outside the city?” A young man in white clothes sitting in the corner of the hall stood up and asked while cupping his fist.
Liu Ming glanced at that person and looked away, but he didn’t know that person. He should be the family master of a small family in Zang State or from another state.
“Everyone can rest a.s.sured that the investigation is almost done. The Dashuo rebels have built a large fortress in Black Wind Col outside the city. However, there are only 70,000 to 80,000 cultivators in the Black Wind Col with only a dozen Celestial State cultivators.” Liu Huifeng said faintly.
As soon as he said this, the cultivators in the hall suddenly started talking.
The 70,000 to 80,000 cultivators were about the same strength as You Rong City, and the Celestial State cultivators in You Rong City were twice as many as the enemy’s. The current situation was an opportunity.
“Although the number of Celestial State cultivators on the other side is small, there are 3 Mystic Comprehending States in charge, so their overall strength is not much worse than ours.” Liu Huifeng seemed to see through the thoughts of the people present, and he continued.
When everyone in the hall heard this, they couldn’t help feeling a little disappointed. The discussion became much quieter.
“However, just now, the central imperial sent a message that Demon Emperor has sent 2 Mystic Comprehending State royal family members. They will arrive in a few days. If there is no more Mystic Comprehending State reinforcement on the side of Dashuo, we will take advantage of this opportunity to launch an attack. Therefore, everyone should be prepared for the fierce battle in these 2 days.” Liu Huifeng said in a deep voice.
“Understood!” Everyone in the hall agreed in unison, showing eagerness to fight.
While Liu Ming and others were discussing tactics, a huge fortress with a radius of hundreds of miles was built between 2 huge mountains thousands of miles away from You Rong City.
The entire fortress was shrouded in a thick black mist. Teams of demon soldiers in gray-white armor were patrolling around. There were escape lights flying back and forth in midair from time to time.
This place was indeed the Black Wind Col Fortress of the Dashuo Army.
Now, in a somewhat dim side hall in the fortress, 2 cultivators in gray robes, a man and a woman, sat facing each other.
Both appeared to be in their 30s. The woman was quite beautiful. She wore a silver headband to coil her hair up, exposing her white and clean forehead.
The other man in a gray robe had a green-yellow face, half-bald eyebrows, and thin and long eyes, which looked rather ugly.
Their powerful aura showed that they were Mystic Comprehending State cultivators.
A black round basin was suspended between the two of them. Circles of black light radiated from the basin.
They stared intently at the black round basin as if they were waiting for something.
Suddenly, a light flashed in the black round basin. With a crackle, a skull-size black flame the size of a human head emerged out of thin air, and a blurry human face emerged from the flame.
“Second Elder!” The gray-robed man and woman immediately stood up and bowed when they saw the face in the flame.
“No need to be polite. Is everything ready?” The face in the flame asked.
“The formation flags of the Great Chaos Demon Array have been forged as required. The people who control the array are in their positions. They can act at any time.” The man in a gray robe obviously knew what the face in the flame said, and he immediately reported.
“Okay, according to the information, in 2 days, Huangfu Liushui and Huangfu Qi from the central imperial will arrive in You Rong City. Be sure to follow the plan. No mistake is allowed!” The face in the flame ordered in a deep voice.
“Yes!” The man in a gray robe and the woman agreed in unison with solemn expressions.
The black flame flickered twice and dissipated. The round basin quickly returned to its original shape.
The 2 looked at each other and quickly left the side hall.
…
In You Rong City, the family masters and the silver-haired old man discussed the deployment of the battle again. After more than half an hour, they all dispersed.
After Liu Ming left, he soon arrived at the residence of the Qing Family’s cultivators.
Qing Fang was pacing back and forth in the hall from time to time. When he saw Liu Ming walking in, he hurriedly greeted in surprise.
“Family master.”
“Is everyone in the family already settled down?” Liu Ming nodded to Qing Fang and asked.
“Yes, the accommodation provided by You Rong City is quite ample. Our people have already moved in.” Qing Fang replied hastily.
“That’s good.” Liu Ming immediately responded, then he walked to a chair in the hall with a blank expression and sat down.
Seeing Liu Ming’s expression, Qing Fang couldn’t help feeling a little apprehensive. He didn’t dare to say anything.
“You sit down too.” Liu Ming pointed to the chair next to him and said suddenly.
Qing Fang was startled. He cupped his fist and sat down.
“Family Master Liu, how is the discussion with the other family master? What is the situation in You Rong City at the moment?” Qing Fang hesitated and asked.
Liu Ming told Qing Fang what he had heard from the main hall. At the same time, he also talked about the secret alliance with the Lei Family, Ao Family and Lan Family. Of course, he also mentioned that the battle was about to unfold in 2 days.
“That’s great, as long as the 2 Mystic Comprehending States from the central imperial can arrive, we will be sure of victory!” Qing Fang said happily.
“Having said that, no one can guarantee whether the Dashuo Fortress will have Mystic Comprehending State reinforcements during these 2 days. I always feel that the appearance of this Dashuo Dynasty is very strange. Li State, Chi State, and Kuo State are located in the frontier. There has never been a large family that can unify the 3 states. According to the information of the Liu Family, there seems to be a lot of Mystic Comprehending State powers in the Dashuo Dynasty. Where did these Mystic Comprehending State cultivators come from? It’s just too weird.” Liu Ming said with twinkling eyes.
“Is family master worried that there will be any changes in this war?” Qing Fang said after hearing this. He had calmed at this moment.
“This is just my premonition. Tell our people to rest well in these 2 days. If there is a big battle after that, act with caution. Try not to leave my field of vision.” Liu Ming said.
“Understood.” Qing Fang nodded hastily.
“Okay, you should go to rest too.” Liu Ming waved his hand, and Qing Fang retreated.
