Chapter 166 The decisive battle is coming
Xiao Ting took Xing'er and Chu Yao, and of course Meng Bao who followed the three of them all the way, from the center of the sacred tree, down the steps, and back to the bottom of the Luoshen Stream.
Looking at the time, it should be noon. Xiao Ting asked Chu Yao to summon the unsheathed divine sword and make it wider. Then he prepared to take Xing'er and Chu Yao to wield the sword again, leave Luoshen Stream, and return to the inn. Take a break.
With a thought in Xiao Ting's mind, he took the cute treasure into the Soul Locking Palace. Xiao Ting waved his right hand gently and sent out a soft force, placing Xing'er on top of the unsheathed divine sword. Then he smiled slightly and spread a layer of colorful defensive knots with his hand. Jie, said to Xing'er: "Xing'er, stand firm, we are about to set off!"
Along with Xing'er's cheers, the unsheathed divine sword soared into the sky! Along the way, the defensive barrier set up by Xiao Ting blocked the erosion of the soul-rending wind. In a short time, he had returned to the Luoshen Stream.
After getting their feet on the ground, Xiao Ting and others looked down at the bottom of Luoshen Stream, feeling a little like they were in another world.
"I'm afraid I won't be able to come here again for a long time!"
Xiao Ting murmured to himself.
Chu Yao also nodded and said gently: "Yes. We still have a lot of things to do!"
Xiao Ting smiled when he heard this and said, "You're right! I'm a little pretentious. Come on, let's go back to the inn!"
Xing'er suddenly said: "Brother Ting, look!"
Hearing this, Xiao Ting and the two looked at Xing'er together. They saw that the original purple princess dress on Xing'er suddenly emitted a burst of misty purple brilliance, and then slowly and slowly turned around under the somewhat shocked eyes of Xiao Ting and Chu Yao. It slowly transformed into a set of close-fitting purple armor.
This small armor is also lavender, and it fits perfectly on Xing'er's body. On the armor, there seem to be circles of ripples rippling, vibrating the surrounding space.
Xiao Ting looked at the armor on Xing'er with a somewhat shocked look.
I felt a powerful aura of energy from it. The defensive power of this armor was probably very strong. At least, Xiao Ting felt that even if he had the strength of the late Emperor Ji Realm, he might not be able to break it!
"Xing'er, where did you get this beautiful purple armor?" Chu Yao asked curiously.
"Hehe!" The armor appears on the surface of my body. Sister Chu Yao, does this armor look good?"
Chu Yao smiled softly: "It looks good! It suits you very well, Xing'er!"
When Xing'er heard this, she immediately smiled. She looked at the bright purple armor on her body and liked it very much.
Girls, no matter how old they are, most likely like colorful things, right?
Xiao Ting also said: "This armor is not only beautiful in color, but its defensive power is also amazing! In the Cang Realm now, I am afraid no one can break the defense of this armor."
Thinking about it, after all, this is the battle armor transformed from Luo Xing's Immortal Mansion. Who is Luo Xing? She is the goddess of the Luo God Clan. Even if she is not even powerful, she can crush the Supreme Emperor Realm cultivator with just a flick of her hand. As a super master, at her peak, she was ranked among the top in the universe. Her armor can be said to be a dimensionality reduction blow in this small Cang Realm.
After hearing what Xiao Ting said, Xing'er said happily: "That's great! In this way, Xing'er can protect herself without having to be a drag on Brother Ting and Sister Chu Yao!"
Xiao Ting smiled and said: "How can Xing'er be a dragster? You will always be my brother's favorite sister and my pistachio!"
Xing'er narrowed her eyes into a small crescent moon and smiled happily.
Xiao Ting thought for a while and then asked: "Xing'er, can you hide this purple armor under your princess dress? It's really a bit annoying to wear such a shiny armor in broad daylight.
Attention."
Hearing this, Xing'er nodded and said, "Okay!" After saying that, Xing'er controlled the armor on her body and slowly integrated it into her body. Xing'er's original purple princess dress appeared again.
"Brother Ting, I did it as you said! Now that shiny armor has been hidden by me!"
Xiao Ting nodded and said with a smile: "Xing'er is so awesome! Let's go. After working hard for several days, we are a little hungry. Let's go back to the inn and have something to eat."
"I want to eat sweet pastries!" Xing'er raised her little hand and shouted.
"Okay! You little greedy cat!"
The three of them were chatting and laughing, and walked all the way towards the inn in the city.
As soon as Fang entered the city, the three of them felt something was wrong. In this second-tier city belonging to the Qin State, the number of pedestrians and vendors on the street was several times less than before. And even if there were a few people occasionally, they were all in a hurry.
, with a worried look on his face. The whole city seemed to be plunged into a tense and bleak atmosphere.
"What's going on? Wasn't this place very bustling and lively before? Why did it suddenly become so deserted? Most of the pedestrians are in a hurry, as if they are fleeing."
Chu Yao asked with some confusion.
Xiao Ting also frowned slightly and did not answer. Instead, he took Xing'er, Chu Yao and others all the way to the inn to stay.
However, unexpectedly, 80% of the inns in the city were closed. After searching for a long time, Xiao Ting and the others finally found an inn that was still open in the center of the city.
This inn is the largest one in the city. On weekdays, it is almost full every day. But now, there are only a few tables of guests here and there. Moreover, these guests have worries on their faces and their voices are very low when talking.
It was as if he was deliberately lowering his voice for fear of being heard by others.
Xiao Ting and the other three found an empty table and sat down, and asked the waiter to order some food and drinks. They also ordered some pastries and preserves for Xing'er.
Xinger likes sweets the most.
After a while, the food and wine were served, but Xiao Ting was not in a hurry to eat, but summoned the waiter to his side.
"Sir, what are your orders?"
Although the younger brother had a stereotyped smile on his face, Xiao Ting could see a hint of fatigue and uneasiness deep in his eyes.
Xiao Ting asked about his doubts.
"Brother, what's going on here? We... the three brothers and sisters have traveled almost all over the city and found that your inn is still open, while the others are closed. And there are no business hotels on the streets in the city.
Business is open, and people on the street are in a hurry. What happened?"
When the second brother heard this, his expression changed, and then he asked cautiously: "Sir, don't you know yet?"
Xiao Ting's expression changed and he said, "The three of us are all from the countryside. We really don't know what happened?"
The second brother took a careful look at the store, then lowered his voice and said: "Sir, no matter what you are doing in this Pennsylvania city, I would like to advise you to go back to your hometown as soon as possible! You may not know yet,
Our Qin State is going to war!"
When Xiao Ting heard this, his heart moved, he exchanged a look with Chu Yao, and then continued to ask: "War? It's so good, why do you want to fight?"
"Shh!" The second brother was a little panicked and quickly made a gesture of silence, and said in a low voice: "Sir, please keep your voice down! You are worried that trouble will come from your mouth!"
Then, the waiter glanced at the few guests in the inn with lingering fear, and then whispered: "I don't know the specific villain. I only know that the imperial court has issued a military conscription order, forcing every household to
At least one person must be sent into the army and incorporated into the new barracks. It is said that the army has already marched to the front line, preparing to go to war with Jiang Guo!"
When Xiao Ting heard this, he immediately understood. This meant that the Chu State had persuaded the Qin State to join their camp and was preparing to have a decisive battle with the Jiang State to determine the fate of the Cang Realm!
Xiao Ting continued to ask: "A war with the Jiang State? But our Qin State is not adjacent to the Jiang State. If we want to start a war with the Jiang State, wouldn't it mean that we have to use another country?"
The younger brother continued: "My lord, it's not as easy as you said! I also heard from our shopkeeper. It is said that he has a relative who is an official in the imperial city and told him that this time not only
It is our Qin State, and almost the entire Cang Realm, that is going to undergo a big change! It seems that all countries have participated in this war, and our Qin State seems to have formed an alliance with the Chu State and the Yan State.
We have become allies and come to fight against Jiang State together!"
When Xiao Ting heard this, he frowned slightly and asked one after another: "What about Jiang State? Are there no allies?"
The younger brother seemed to have started chatting. At this moment, he didn't care whether trouble would come out of his mouth. He slapped his thigh and said: "Of course! Jiang Guo, South Korea, and Xia Guo also signed an alliance. With this,
Come to fight against our alliance. No, everyone in the entire Cang Realm is in danger now, and news of a war is spreading everywhere. This news changes almost every day, and I don’t know whether it is true or not. But according to my shopkeeper,
The relative who is an official said that war will happen sooner or later, but we just don’t know when it will happen!”
When Xiao Ting heard this, he nodded secretly.
It seems that King Chu Sheng failed to win over Xia Guo. I don’t know what method Jiang Taixu used to tie Xia Guoye to his chariot.
In this way, each of the two camps has three countries participating in the war. On the surface, it can be said that they are evenly matched. However, Xia Kingdom and South Korea have always been the two weakest countries among the Cangjie countries.
It also destroyed the Xiao State where Xiao Ting was located and took over a lot of Xiao State's troops. Therefore, strictly speaking, the Jiang State's alliance may have greater military strength than the Chu, Qin, and Yan alliance.
Moreover, there is also Jiang Taixu!
Xiao Ting's eyes narrowed slightly, not knowing what he was thinking.
The second brother here saw that Xiao Ting was silent and said: "Look at my mouth! They say that trouble comes from the mouth, but I talk endlessly and delay the guest's meal and drink. You eat first, little one
I have resigned, if you have any orders, you are calling me!"
Xiao Ting smiled and said: "Thank you, little second brother!"
The waiter bowed and stepped back.
Xiao Ting held the wine glass, but he still didn't drink it. He was secretly thinking about something in his heart.
When Chu Yao saw this, he also said softly: "Brother Xiao Ting, it seems that my father and the others have already decided to have a decisive battle with Jiang Guo!"
Xiao Ting nodded: "It's a little earlier than I expected. And Xia Guo actually joined Jiang Guo's camp. This is something I didn't expect. According to my idea, Xia Guo is still suffering from internal problems, and I have given The list of important figures in the Xia State that Jiang Guo secretly controlled using Gu techniques. Even if the Xia State did not join our camp and fight against the Jiang State, they would at least remain neutral. But what I never expected was that, Xia State actually chose to form an alliance with Jiang State. Jiang Taixu, it seems that I have underestimated your methods!"
Chu Yao comforted: "Fortunately, both sides now have three countries participating in the war. At least on paper, they are evenly matched. I just don't know when the two sides will actually start a war!"
Xiao Ting nodded and said: "I guess it won't be too far away! Such a large-scale war will waste people and money, and both sides can't afford to delay it. It seems that I have to speed up the time. I need to improve my strength quickly. When I have a decisive battle with Jiang Taixu, I will definitely kill him with my own hands, absolutely!"
