Chapter 207

"By that time, I will be able to rush to the front lines with the power of the Angel God and easily take down the two great empires of Heaven Dou and Xingluo." Qian Renxue still did not quite understand why Lin Yu had warned her like this so many times.

Shouldn't she become a god as quickly as possible?

"Don't ask why; when the time comes, I will tell you myself. Xue'er, just do as I say." Lin Yu did not explain too much; Qian Renxue could not know the specific reasons yet.

Looking at Lin Yu's incredibly serious face, Qian Renxue felt very puzzled, but she still followed Lin Yu's wishes: "I understand, I will wait for you."

"Mm." Lin Yu nodded.

As long as Qian Renxue became the Angel God, Heaven Dou and Xingluo would surely be destroyed in the short term.

Even the threat of Bibi Dong could be eliminated, and even if Tang San hid in the City of Slaughter, Qian Renxue could kill her way in and slay that potential threat, the little brat.

This would directly allow the continent to be unified, removing all potential threats and thoroughly stabilizing the Spirit Hall Empire's position on the continent.

But Qian Renxue becoming a god also meant that Qian Daoliu would sacrifice his own life.

Compared to these things, Lin Yu cared more about whether Qian Daoliu could survive. Therefore, Lin Yu could only let Qian Renxue delay the speed of becoming a god, waiting until he became stronger to see if he could find a way to save Qian Daoliu.

Lin Yu did not tell Qian Renxue about Qian Daoliu's sacrifice; telling her would only affect her.

"Alright, it is time for me to set off." Lin Yu withdrew his thoughts and bowed to Qian Daoliu and the other seven Elders behind him: "Teacher, Elders, this junior is setting off on the expedition."

"Go, Xiao Yu, we will wait for your triumphant return."

"Mm, farewell!"

Lin Yu bowed and turned to leave.

But at this moment, Qian Daoliu called out to Lin Yu again: "Wait! Xiao Yu!"

"What is it, Teacher?"

Lin Yu turned back to look at Qian Daoliu.

Seeing the reluctance in Qian Daoliu's eyes, he slowly walked in front of Lin Yu and feigned a smile, but inside he felt incredibly lonely and a faint sadness.

With a kind and warm smile on his face, he said, "Xiao Yu, with Teacher not by your side, you must take good care of yourself. The future of the Spirit Hall is in the hands of you young people."

"How Teacher wishes to see the day you become a god."

As he spoke, Qian Daoliu pulled Lin Yu into his arms and gave him a tight hug.

"Teacher, why are you acting like this is a final parting? Don't worry, I will take good care of myself, and I will definitely let you see the moment I become a god with your own eyes." Lin Yu also feigned a relaxed smile.

But in reality, he knew clearly that this parting hug was, for Qian Daoliu, a final farewell to Lin Yu.

He knew he might not be able to see the day Lin Yu became a god at all, because he knew his time was running out and he would soon sacrifice himself for Qian Renxue.

And as soon as Lin Yu went on an expedition, it would likely take a year or two; Qian Daoliu could probably guess that he would not live to see Lin Yu return.

Therefore, this parting was a permanent farewell for him.

But Lin Yu would absolutely not let Qian Daoliu die like this, and Qian Daoliu had no idea that Lin Yu was trying to save him: "Teacher, farewell!"

"Xiao Yu..." Qian Daoliu felt sorrowful in secret.

After saying goodbye again, Lin Yu turned to look at the army before him.

He walked step by step toward a higher point, finally standing at the highest part of the Wuhun City wall.

He pulled up a Spirit Hall Empire flag planted on the wall, held it high, and shouted loudly: "All soldiers, listen to my command!!"

"Follow me on the expedition to crusade against the two great empires of Xingluo and Heaven Dou!!"

"The Spirit Hall Empire will be unstoppable! Sweeping across the world!"

"Unifying the Douluo Continent!!"

"Unstoppable, sweeping across the world!"

"Unstoppable, sweeping across the world!"

"Unstoppable, sweeping across the world!"

"The Spirit Hall Empire will be victorious!"

The five hundred thousand troops spoke in unison, their morale shaking the air for a thousand meters; the army's fighting spirit reached an unprecedented peak.

"Set off!!"

Following Lin Yu's final roar,

The five hundred thousand troops finally began their march.

They would split into two paths to attack the Heaven Dou and Xingluo Empires simultaneously.

A few days later.

Lin Tian led five Title Douluo south to march on Xingluo.

Lin Yu led the five Title Douluo—Dugu Bo, Ling Yuan, She Long, Citun, and Jin Gui—north to crusade against the Heaven Dou Empire.

After the two armies separated, they each advanced.

The army moved slowly, and along the way, Lin Yu continued his dual cultivation with Gu Yuena, hoping to break through to level 90 during the war, but this realm was not so easy to break through.

Half a month later!

The two Spirit Hall Empire armies arrived almost simultaneously at the border cities of the Xingluo and Heaven Dou Empires.

"Report!! Grand Marshal, our army is only five kilometers away from the border city of the Balake Kingdom, a subordinate kingdom of Heaven Dou!!" the scouting team reported the situation.

In the commander's carriage, Lin Yu gave the order: "Find a spot ahead to set up camp, rest for the night, and attack the city tomorrow!"

"Yes!!"

The next day, early morning.

Lin Yu led the two hundred thousand troops to the foot of the city, the pressure immense.

"They're here! The Spirit Hall Empire's army is here!!"

At this moment, the soldiers inside the Balake border city were already panic-stricken.

Their morale was clearly failing, even though the Balake Kingdom had also dispatched two hundred thousand troops to guard the border city.

Although the troop numbers were the same, the Spirit Master strength on the Balake Kingdom's side was far too inferior.

"What are you afraid of! The Spirit Hall Empire only has two hundred thousand troops, equal to our strength. Our border city is easy to defend and hard to attack; even if they have many strong Spirit Masters, it won't be easy to break the city gates!!"

A Spirit Douluo-level main general stood up, bolstering the morale, and then roared: "Activate the city defense array!!"

"Yes!"

Hundreds of soldiers on the high walls formed ranks and simultaneously exerted their power to release a collective array skill.

Collective array skills, apart from the Wind Sword Sect, were the most common in the army.

The armies of the Xingluo and Heaven Dou Empires almost all had various collective arrays of different sizes, such as defensive arrays, attack arrays, control-type arrays, and so on.

There were arrays for a thousand men, arrays for hundreds, and small arrays for dozens.

After all, armies were made of ordinary soldiers; to have a group of ordinary soldiers combine to exert powerful strength and kill strong Spirit Masters, collective arrays were essential in the army.

By using the power of many to exert super-strong lethality, only then could the army be more powerful.

And the enemy before them had combined hundreds of people to release a collective defensive array, which, added to the sturdy city walls, meant that even low-level Title Douluo would not find it easy to break the city.

After all, the enemy would not be foolish enough to just let a Title Douluo prepare their power to strike their defenses.

They would inevitably, during this process, have a large number of Spirit Masters release long-range soul skills to bombard the person trying to break the city.
