Am I the only one who didn't ascend?

Chapter 535 For the Future

While the beast tide on the frontline receded, relevant battle reports had already arrived at the Temple of Heaven.

This time, Prince Ling, the leader of the front line, did not use the flying sword that lit up the sky - in fact, the continuous "war emergencies" some time ago had basically exhausted the flying sword inventory on the front line. Military intelligence, otherwise the logistics manager would rather take off his pants and die in front of the tent, and would never let Gan Fengxian spend a lot of money regardless of his family wealth again.

The battle report was delivered according to the regular method of the Xinheng border army. A simple glazed silk thread fell from the sky and penetrated the jade roof of the high palace. On the table, there were some neat handwritings coiled on a side of jade that was specially designed to receive urgent reports.

Wang Luo only glanced at it, let out a sigh, and then fell into deep thought. At the same time, Yang Jiuzhong walked quietly not far away. After reading the battle report together, he admired in a low voice: "This general of the Immortal Alliance Alliance is so powerful. He first resisted the tide of millions of beasts with a mere 30,000 people, and then he was able to He keenly captured the fleeting fighter opportunity and made a decisive decision to cut through the enemy formation and join forces with Prince Ling... I don’t know what a hero he is!”

Wang Luo said: "Whoever can lead the army on behalf of the Immortal Alliance at this time to avenge the fallen soldiers is naturally very powerful. As for what kind of hero he is... As expected, we should be able to meet him soon."

Yang Jiuzhong was slightly startled: "Can we meet soon?"

"The beast tide has subsided, and there is internal chaos. The battle situation on the front line has eased in the short term... According to that person's temperament, he will never waste more time on the front line."

When Yang Jiuzhong heard this, he couldn't help but be amazed: "How can the Ambassador infer the identity and combat ideas of the coalition commander based on this war briefing alone?"

"Oh, this is not difficult to guess. Although the Immortal League has countless powerful troops and generals, there are only a handful of people who can lead 30,000 elite field troops at this time and walk out of the Dinghuang barrier - those who are capable may not have the qualifications. , Those who have qualifications may not have courage, but there are only a handful of people who have both ability, qualifications and courage.”

Yang Jiuzhong couldn't help laughing when he heard the words and then nodded solemnly: "The envoy is really well versed in the secrets of military and political affairs... However, according to the envoy's speculation, the Immortal Alliance general wants to take this opportunity to penetrate deep into the territory of our New Heng Kingdom?"

Wang Luo was silent for a moment and said with a smile: "We are not just deep into the country, we are almost reaching Fancheng by now."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a hearty laughter coming from the distance.

"Hahaha, Master Wang Shan really understands me! We haven't seen each other for a long time, and the tacit understanding between you and me is still the same as before!"

The laughter was loud and powerful in mid-air, and instantly stirred up the whole city. Although the sound was not violent, it still caused a commotion among the civil servants and military officers in the high hall.

Logically speaking, given the tight security of Fan City, anyone who dared to laugh so arrogantly above the city would have been knocked down by thunder and fire, and hundreds of thousands of elite forbidden troops should have crushed him to ashes. However, everyone only heard the laughter coming from far and near, and in a blink of an eye, they broke through from outside the city to the inside of the city, and then flew to the high hall... But the magic circle and the forbidden army all over the city were unmoved!

The next moment, the guards outside the palace suddenly shouted in unison: "See the prince!"

At the same time, Prince Ling Gan Fengxian's unique spiritual essence, which was as unique as flying sand in the desert, was also flamboyant, as if he was deliberately telling his identity.

So everyone in the palace naturally knew the reason: the one who laughed was personally accompanied by Prince Ling... As he was the crown prince, the entire city's military equipment would naturally turn a blind eye to him.

However, the battle report had just arrived, and Prince Ling was right behind him... The reason behind this was really puzzling.

Fortunately, not long after, Ling Prince Gan Fengxian led two distinguished guests to the high hall.

One of the distinguished guests did not regard himself as an outsider at all, walked ahead with his head held high, and even walked quickly in front of Gan Fengxian when he approached the high hall. Stepping into the back of the hall, she locked eyes with Wang Luo at a glance, and a bright smile suddenly appeared on her bright and gorgeous face.

"Master Wangshan! It's been such a long time!"

Wang Luo also got up early to greet him: "Old General Huang is even more handsome than before."

The person who came was none other than veteran Mo Lin Huang Long. Hearing this, he raised his head and laughed: "Haha, after winning the battle, it will naturally look more glorious!"

While he was talking, the civil servant who had already known the interest moved the table into the air, clearing an empty space for receiving guests in the crowded hall.

Huang Long was not polite, he randomly found an empty seat and sat down. When he sat still, a faint refreshing spiritual mist rose from his feet and enveloped his whole body, helping him restore his true energy and clear away fatigue.

Huang Long praised it and then turned his eyes behind him.

At this time, the second distinguished guest, led by Ling Prince Gan Fengxian, sat down behind Huang Long. He seemed to be in his forties, with an ordinary appearance. His armor was similar to Huang Long's, but more plain... as if he was just Huang Long's lieutenant. But Wang Luo could clearly smell a familiar aura in this person.

The aura belonging to the Dragon King Ling Xiao.

Just when Wang Luo recognized the other party's identity, Yulongjun also turned his gaze to Wang Luo. Although he didn't say anything, his warm eyes clearly said: "You know this and I know it. Now I just think that I am Lieutenant General.

Seeing that Huang Long next to him had obviously known about this for a long time, Wang Luo did not refuse, and immediately changed the subject and asked: "Why is General Huang here in such a hurry? How come he has nothing to do with this battle report?"

Huang Long said with a smile: "This battle report was written too late. Although the Xianyang Peak is the residence of immortals, there is no passage connecting it to Xinheng, and the passages along the way were deliberately destroyed by strange beasts. Although we can arrange a large tower on the top of the peak, Formation, continuously raining down fairy thunder, blowing up the beast tide's mother nest to pieces, but unable to spread the good news back to the country... It wasn't until the beast tide receded, and we led the main force down the mountain and returned to the military camp outside Liuyan City, that Prince Ling There is an opportunity to send the battle report back to the capital.”

Gan Fengxian added: "Those wild beasts... are really no small matter. When I led the main force to climb the Xianyang Peak, they did not dare to follow us, but they immediately cut off our retreat secretly. Apparently they planned to surround us on the mountain. . If General Huang hadn’t arrived in time to support us, the consequences would have been disastrous.”

Huang Long also became angry and said: "In the past at the Molin border, I have fought countless wild beasts, but this is the first time I have seen such a smart and cunning opponent! Even those beast tides directly led by the wild demons , and few have such strong tactical flexibility. Fortunately, Xinheng’s Xianjia formation was more powerful than the Star Destroyer Fortress, and they were able to finally push back the beast tide..."

Yang Jiuzhong hesitated for a moment, then said: "In my opinion, opponents can no longer be regarded as 'beasts'. There is undoubtedly help from Jingzhou behind them."

Huang Long snorted coldly: "Does that mean those ancient demons ended up in person again? Well, I'm afraid that they will never dare to come again after they were killed and injured by the Blood River... In short, these problems can be solved by one person alone. It is obviously difficult to explain the battle report clearly, so I persuaded Prince Ling to return to Fancheng along the Liuli Net's teleportation array as soon as possible and explain it to you personally. "

As soon as these words came out, the hall was filled with exclamations of surprise. But instead of marveling at the thorny nature of the beast tide and the presence of an immortal mastermind behind the scenes, she marveled at the fact that Huanglong and the others actually activated the teleportation array!

"Liu Liwang's teleportation array?"

"Flawless Formation?"

"Isn't that no longer usable?!"

General Yang Jiuzhong was a little calm and looked at Gan Fengxian in surprise: "Your Highness Prince Ling, that flawless glazed light has been there since the day Jinxian fell..."

Gan Fengxian shrugged helplessly: "It's not completely dead after all."

Huang Long also smiled and said: "Yes, Prince Ling also warned me that day that the Liuli Net has faded and faded, and there is no guarantee that it will work as usual... But since the battle report can be sent smoothly, theoretically it should be possible to give it away. This kind of fleeting The magical power is only available to the Lord of the Deer Kingdom in the Immortal League. I have been interested in it for a long time. If I don't try it while Xinheng's glazed light is still alive, I'm afraid I won't have the chance to experience it after it completely dies. "

After a pause, Huang Long looked at Wang Luo again: "So, I came to see you as soon as possible. Master Wang Shan, there has been almost no news from you in Xinheng these days. My friends miss you very much."

Hearing this, although Wang Luo's expression remained calm, he was obviously emotionally disturbed.

"so……"

Huang Long got straight to the point and said, "So, Master Wangshan, are you really not planning to go back?"

Hearing these words, Wang Luo's face showed amusement: "The general asked this, it seems that there is a lot of talk about me in the Immortal League?"

Huang Long said frankly: "Yes, and they will kill them endlessly."

Wang Luo laughed: "Haha, the general should also know that you can't kill all the rumors. What's more, strictly speaking, the only reason why you can't stop killing them is that the people who should speak out have not spoken up... Lu Youyou should rarely appear recently, right? ? In short, I roughly know the situation. Thank you General for informing me."

Huang Long seemed a little surprised when he heard this: "Master Wangshan, if you say that, is it really..."

However, next, the deputy general next to him, Lord Yulong, suddenly joined the conversation: "Master Wangshan, now that the beast tide has receded, the progress of the Tongming Immortal Road should soon return to the expected level. Three months at most , Xinheng and Xianmeng will be connected to each other... By then, both parties need to be ready to connect. If conditions permit, we hope to hold a summit meeting at Jinhu Fortress to discuss future strategic plans. "

Wang Luo responded businesslikely: "No problem...right, Prince Ling?"

Gan Fengxian said in a deep voice: "But for the sake of national affairs, it is our duty to do so. However, although the beast tide has retreated temporarily, we cannot relax our vigilance. After three months..."

Wang Luo said: "It's okay. After three months, you will have been enthroned long ago. By then, let General Yang guard the border for you. Maybe you can fight better."

Gan Fengxian glanced at Yang Jiuchong, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, but he said nothing.

Although the process of this border chaos often exceeded expectations, on the whole he still won considerable political capital for himself. In particular, he forcibly climbed to the top of Xian Yang Peak and defeated the beast tide's nest, which helped him establish a very high reputation in the army. From this, he ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, and without strong opposition, it was a matter of course. Of course, as for governing the country after taking the throne, that is another question. However, as long as the representatives of the Immortal Alliance can insist on standing on his side, when the Tongming Immortal Road is completed, his throne will only become more stable. By then, no matter how many military exploits Yang Jiuzhong has established, he will not be able to threaten him.

So, even if they can't beat the Yang family in terms of military exploits...what does it matter?

Then, Wang Luo said: "As for Xinheng's general strategy of quelling the wilderness, it is currently in charge of the National Advisor Zhang Jincheng. The progress is not fast, but it is in an orderly manner. The cornerstone of the cessation of the wilderness at the feet of Dongdu is already brewing and growing, and the Distance Ning Yuan Diagram was officially born. It shouldn't take more than a month. However, if you want to spread the cornerstone of Desolation throughout the eighteen counties and build a strong barrier like the Immortal Alliance, it will take many years of hard work. The Immortal Alliance cannot be too hasty on this issue, and there is no need to be too hasty. . Heavenly Court's ability to interfere with the lower world is already very limited. Now hiding in the beast tide and using the hands of the Beast King to prevent the two places from joining together is actually a weak evidence of their inability to fight head-on. Xinheng and the Immortal Alliance have not even used their full strength. He has withstood the 'God's Punishment'."

Huang Long still had some unfinished thoughts and was a little unbelievable: "So, those ancient demons are really so incompetent?"

Yulongjun said: "Since King Shanzhu left the Immortal Alliance and came to Xinheng alone... the border pressure of the entire Immortal Alliance has been reduced a lot. There is little news about the infiltration of the wild demon. Obviously during this period, Wang The mountain master has made another outstanding military exploit that is unknown to everyone."

Wang Luo just smiled faintly at this and did not explain in detail his conversation and agreement with the Lord of Heaven. Because he had clearly used thousands of messenger flying swords to inform the Immortal Alliance about this before, and thus the Tongming Immortal Road was opened... But after a few months, it seems that the merger of Xinheng has almost come to fruition. , the most important reason that contributed to this matter: the reconciliation of the Lord of Heaven did not spread, at least both Yulongjun and Huanglong seemed to be unaware of it. It seems that in the five states on the right side of the sky, there are also people who are silently transporting people to Zhewuxia... It is under such a contradictory understanding that Wang Luo, a man who has made extraordinary achievements for Xinheng and Xianmeng, will attract dispute.

Wang Luo naturally understood this, and there were some things that even a conscientious person like Huang Long should not say more about. As for the misunderstanding with the Immortal Alliance... what does it have to do with him, a person who is on a mission abroad?

But when Gan Fengxian saw this, he changed the subject quite astutely: "Speaking of the glorious military exploits, the retreat of the beast tide this time was really thanks to the timely help of the Xian Alliance Allied Forces. It just so happened that the two of them had arrived in Fancheng. Why not take this opportunity to go to Dongdong? At Duqianxingtai, the Ningyuan Pavilion under the supervision of the Imperial Master has reached more than half of the progress. A few days ago, he also told me in a letter that when quelling the beast chaos on the border, don't forget to pick up a bit of the 'brilliant energy' of the great victory. To fill up the Ning Yuan Pavilion. However, compared to the glorious energy flowing out after the victory on the battlefield, I think the awe-inspiring power of the two Immortal Alliance generals is clearly more dazzling. If you don't mind, could you please leave your portraits in the Ning Yuan Pavilion for your memory. The people of the Immortal League will look up to and respect him in future generations.”

Although these words were obviously flattering, using the excuse of Dinghuang Ningyuan made it impossible for Huanglong and Yulongjun to raise any objections... and the original delicate topic was naturally ignored. .
