Chapter 295: The Bai Lu Ghost's open plot, Longshan's advance [Please vote!!]

"Holy Yang Pill?"

In the top floor of the Wu Shuang main building, Xia Hong's gaze on the main seat condensed slightly.

Yuwentao below continued: "It's called the Holy Yang Pill. I have interrogated the nine people separately. Li Yuanqing confessed first. He said that this Holy Yang Pill was brought back by his father Li Xuantian from Yangyuan Peak. It is a cultivation holy product for Cold-Resisting Realm experts, and its effect is dozens of times better than Jade Bone Great Medicine. Many people in Longshan have taken it.

Zhaoyang is about the same. According to Hou Ming and Wang Lie, Hou Hu decided to defect to Longshan only after taking the Holy Yang Pill given by Li Xuantian."

"So, the reason for the sudden surge in strength of the Cold-Resisting Realm experts of the two families recently is all because of this Holy Yang Pill. Are there any extra Holy Yang Pills on them?"

Yuwentao shook his head and said: "All searched, none."

That's right, such precious pills, the quantity must not be large. It is estimated that they were used for cultivation as soon as they were issued. Who would keep them on their bodies?

Yuwentao thought of something and continued to report: "I just tested it with condensed fire oil, and none of the nine people showed any reaction."

Hearing this, Xia Hong nodded slightly, and his expression gradually became solemn.

The reason for the increase in strength of the Cold-Resisting Realm experts of Longshan and Zhaoyang is the Holy Yang Pill.

And this Holy Yang Pill was brought back from Yangyuan Peak by Li Xuantian, who escaped death. Then, unsurprisingly, Li Xuantian must have a relationship with the Bai Lu Ghost.

As for the condensed fire oil not being able to test the problem, this is normal.

Longshan is not without condensed fire oil, and Li Ying Xuan Ling is not a fool.

According to the letters sent by Li Hu and Yang Zhong in May, after Li Xuantian's group escaped from Yangyuan Peak and returned to Longshan, Li Ying Xuan Ling let them stay outside the camp for a full seven days, during which she used various methods to test them, and finally confirmed that there was no problem before letting them enter the base.

This message is enough to show that Li Ying Xuan Ling has a strong sense of vigilance against Li Xuantian, but the Bai Lu Ghost's means are becoming more and more sophisticated, making even condensed fire oil and silver unable to make it show its true form.

"This Holy Yang Pill must have a problem, not to mention Li Xuantian. It seems that Li Ying Xuan Ling and this group of people in Longshan have all been deceived by that Bai Lu Ghost."

Yuwentao was the first to question that the Bai Lu Ghost was not dead, and as one of the participants in the Yangyuan Peak incident, he was also the most vigilant against the Bai Lu Ghost, so he made this judgment directly.

Unexpectedly, Xia Hong denied his words immediately.

"I can be sure that the nine people who took the Holy Yang Pill have no problem. They do have the Dew Plague in their bodies, but it will not spread to others, and after the dew is cleared, their strength will not decrease."

Hearing this, Yuwentao's expression froze.

He naturally wouldn't doubt Xia Hong's words. Small torches and condensed fire oil are both materials with strong restraint effects on ghosts, and they are all produced by the Cold Ruins Tripod, and the owner of the Cold Ruins Tripod is Xia Hong, so Xia Hong dares to make this judgment, and there must be some basis for it.

But if there is no problem with the Holy Yang Pill, then why did Li Xuantian, or the Bai Lu Ghost manipulating him, take it out for the Cold-Resisting Realm experts of Longshan and Zhaoyang to use? Ghosts helping humans improve their strength is itself very...

Yuwentao suddenly reacted, his face condensed, and he looked up in shock: "Does the leader mean that the Bai Lu Ghost took out the Holy Yang Pill to improve the strength of the Cold-Resisting Realm experts of the two families specifically to deal with our Great Xia?"

Xia Hong nodded directly and sneered: "Otherwise, how did the two families, which were fighting fiercely before, reach an agreement so quickly and form an alliance? If you were a normal person, would you use such a spiritual pill for people in the camp? Those 800 sets of hundred-forged battle armor were clearly prepared for the war."

Yuwentao lowered his head and thought for a moment. Combined with the news Xia Hong brought back from the Yang Dew Desperate Land three days ago, he suddenly realized.

"As the leader said, the Bai Lu Ghost gathered a massive amount of cold beasts and turned the entire Yang Dew into a desperate land to protect its true body. This can at least explain two points: First, it cannot leave Yangyuan Peak for the time being and move freely outside; Second, it is not in an invincible state at present, and it is very afraid that someone will approach Yangyuan Peak..."

Yuwentao pondered for a moment, peeled the cocoon and continued: "The Bai Lu Ghost has already seen condensed fire oil, and it may even know about the Cold Ruins Tripod. Moreover, Wu Xiong, whom it controlled before, was killed by the leader once at Hanqiong Gourd Valley.

It knows very well that the only thing in the entire Longyou that threatens it is Great Xia, but it can't come out itself, so it can only manipulate the two families of Longshan and Zhaoyang behind the scenes to deal with us. Using Yang Yuan Pills can not only help the Cold-Resisting Realm experts of the two families improve their strength to deal with us but also use this to win people's hearts and control the two families."

After listening to this incisive analysis by Yuwentao, Xia Hong did not hide his appreciation at all, turned his head and continued to add: "That Bai Lu Ghost must still be afraid of condensed fire oil, so it dare not spread the Dew Plague to kill people unscrupulously, and can only use the two families of Longshan and Zhaoyang, who are also humans, to deal with us first."

Yuwentao couldn't help but open his mouth immediately: "Leader, then we must tell Li Ying Xuan Ling immediately, we can't fall into the Bai Lu Ghost's plot!"

"Do you think Li Ying Xuan Ling is so stupid? There are so many people in Longshan, are they all confused, not a single smart one?"

Yuwentao's expression froze. After sorting out the joints, his expression became much lower, and he said softly: "This Bai Lu Ghost, what a deep mind..."

This is not a conspiracy, but a proper open plot!

The Bai Lu Ghost just took advantage of the fact that Longshan must deal with Great Xia. The Holy Yang Pill is the bait it took out. Even if Li Ying Xuan Ling is suspicious in her heart, she can only follow its ideas for the time being and unite with Zhaoyang to deal with Great Xia.

"With the Holy Yang Pill, that Bai Lu Ghost will definitely secretly win over the vast majority of Cold-Resisting Realm experts of the two families through Li Xuantian. Li Ying Xuan Ling should have been able to calculate this point long ago. In order to deal with Great Xia, she is willing to pay a heavy price, hmph!"

Xia Hong's eyes flashed with gloom. The taste of being calculated by the Bai Lu Ghost is naturally not good, but this is not serious. The key is that Li Ying Xuan Ling and this group of people in Longshan, in order to maintain their ruling position in Longyou, are willing to be driven by ghosts, which makes him very angry in his heart.

Once ghosts grow up, the harm to humans is basically limitless.

At the beginning of the Bai Lu Ghost's recovery, just by spreading the plague, it slaughtered the Yang Dew camp with a population of nearly thirty thousand. There was also the tragedy at Hanqiong Gourd Valley. If Great Xia hadn't taken out condensed fire oil to save people, it is estimated that not a single one would have survived.

Under such circumstances, Li Ying Xuan Ling actually dared to ignore the Bai Lu Ghost. Clearly, in this woman's heart, maintaining Longshan's hegemony is more important than anything else.

"Wanting to rely on ghosts to maintain Longshan's hegemony, this woman is also blinded by greed. It's a pity that Longshan and you are destined to be stepped under my feet!"

Xia Hong flashed a look of disdain in his eyes, and no longer tangled with the matter of Li Xuantian and the Bai Lu Ghost. He first looked at the sky outside, then turned to look at the huge Longyou map hanging behind the main seat, and asked in a deep voice:

"Has Xia Chuan and Peng Bo returned?"

Yuwentao knew that Xia Hong was about to deploy, his expression brightened and he replied: "The Secretary-General returned half an hour ago. He is leading Chen Yingyuan and others to be on alert around the camp to strictly prevent Longshan from spying on our situation;

Peng Bo just returned. He brought a total of fifteen Cold-Resisting Realm experts. In addition, according to him, Xia City has already been notified, and a large number of Earth-Digging Realm experts have begun to pack their bags and will set out from Jinggu to Longyou at the fastest speed at night."

The day in the Ice Abyss only has two hours.

Xia Chuan ran to Hanqiong and Beehive respectively, and Peng Bo returned to Xia City once. The time basically passed. At present, there is less than an hour until dawn.

Xia Hong pondered for a moment and said: "You go and notify Zhao Long now. Isn't he going to take the main army and walk the Xia Straight Road over at night? Let him make some noise when he approaches Wu Shuang. He must let the Longshan people know."

Yuwentao only thought for a moment, and immediately showed a knowing smile.

Xia Hong said yesterday that Wu Shuang doesn't have to be defended to the death, so the reason for Zhao Long to deliberately make noise is not difficult to deduce.

"Wu Shuang must be notified in place. After nightfall, start to secretly walk the Xia Straight Road to Beehive in batches. Strive to transfer everyone away before Zhao Long's main army arrives, leaving only 1000 Cloud Dragon Army soldiers and all Cold-Resisting Realm experts.

The inter-communication straight roads between the three places of Hanqiong, Beehive, and Wu Shuang have all been completed. Zhao Long's one thousand people will arrive soon after nightfall. Notify Xia Chuan to relax the alert at that time point. It is best to let Longshan's spies see that we have reinforcements approaching Wu Shuang.

That's all, you go and do it first."

"Subordinate obeys!"

Yuwentao bowed and agreed, then quickly turned and walked out of the hall.

"Three thousand Longyou troops must have gathered at the Songyuan outpost. They will press toward Wu Shuang after nightfall. It's a pity they don't have a straight road. Even if they send people to open the road in advance, the marching speed is extremely slow. As long as I give some wrong information, my room for operation is very large. This battle, no matter how you look at it, I can't lose!"

Xia Hong continued to look at the map, pondered for a moment, and revealed a look of confidence in his eyes.

………………

Longyou 48th year, June 21st, eve of nightfall

Songyuan outpost, main building main hall

Li Ying Xuan Ling was still sitting in the main seat, and Li Tiancheng was in the chief seat on her lower left.

After Li Tiancheng's previous mediation and admonition, the atmosphere of the group of Longshan Cold-Resisting Realm experts improved a lot. Everyone sat upright, focusing on Li Xuanping, Li Xuanqiu, Meng Ying, and Cheng Guang in the middle.

All four of them were covered with quite a bit of snow, clearly just having returned from outside.

Li Xuanping was the first to stand out and bow: "I went to the north of Wu Shuang and sensed at least five Cold-Resisting Realm auras. They should have sensed me too and immediately approached and surrounded me. Although their strength is not strong, I am worried that Great Xia will have reinforcements coming, so I came back first."

Meng Ying said second: "I went to the south, there are six Cold-Resisting Realm experts. The situation is similar to his, and I was discovered before I could get close, so I had to retreat."

Li Xuanqiu is a rare woman among the Cold-Resisting Realm experts. She stood out third and bowed: "I went to the east, and there are also six Cold-Resisting Realm experts."

Finally, Cheng Guang, whose face was the most solemn, bowed and said: "I went to the west. Great Xia deployed at least ten Cold-Resisting Realm experts in this direction, and the forward distance is very far, clearly guarding against us spying on the base situation."

Wow…………

After the four finished speaking, the hall was in an uproar.

"Great Xia, has so many Cold-Resisting Realm experts?"

"This is already twenty-seven, not counting the leader Xia Hong."

"This is more than Zhaoyang's Cold-Resisting Realm experts."

"This is only a portion of the power Great Xia sent to Longyou. This Great Xia's number of Cold-Resisting Realm experts, won't it be more than our Longshan?"

"Not necessarily. Didn't Second Uncle say that Xia City is far to the east of Red Wood Ridge, in the canyon on the west side of the Twin Dragon Mountains? Judging from the scale of the city, the population is more than one hundred thousand. Twenty-seven Cold-Resisting Realm experts, I am afraid it is really not their full strength."

"Red Wood Ridge, I remember clearly that there was no one there. When did such a strong camp emerge? This…………"

……………………

More than an hour ago, Li Tiancheng told them all the scenes of Xia City he saw.

Black stone city walls with a total length of ten kilometers on three sides;

Xia people wearing various costumes, freely entering and exiting outside Red Wood Ridge;

The hunting teams wearing armor and holding sharp weapons, pouring out after nightfall;

Countless iron ores and coal stones sent into Xia City from other places;

………………

In fact, Li Tiancheng did not successfully mix into Xia City, just peeked at part of the scene on the periphery, but even the part of the scene he depicted made the group of Longshan Cold-Resisting Realm experts shocked.

In the eyes of the Longshan crowd before, Great Xia was always the same existence as those other giant camps in Longyou. Even if they took out the Cloud Dragon Army this time, they also thought that Great Xia's strength was at most comparable to Zhaoyang, and there was still a considerable gap with Longshan.

But after listening to Li Tiancheng's experience, they realized that it was not the case.

The scene of the Great Xia base was clearly much better than Longshan, the population was much larger than Longshan, and even the number of hunting teams, as well as the number of Earth-Digging Realm experts, might be more than Longshan......

Their hearts were already drumming, and at this moment, hearing the situation of Wu Shuang scouted by Li Xuanping and the four, their expressions couldn't help but be a bit frightened.

Great Xia's strength clearly exceeded their expectations.

"It can be determined that within three kilometers around Wu Shuang, Great Xia put more than twenty-seven Cold-Resisting Realm experts on alert. Our people can't even get close, let alone peek at the situation inside the Wu Shuang base."

Li Ying Xuan Ling's eyes were also very solemn. Clearly, the number of Great Xia's Cold-Resisting Realm experts exceeded her expectations. Seeing that the expressions of some people below began to be a bit uneasy, her brows condensed, and she said in a deep voice: "No matter how large Great Xia's city scale is and how strong its strength is, it is on the side of Red Wood Ridge. This is Longyou, our Longshan's home field. Even if it is a dragon, it must crawl obediently..."

She paused after saying this, changed the topic and continued: "Moreover, Great Xia only has one Cloud Dragon Army in Longyou. Just this point alone, Great Xia has absolutely no possibility of defeating our Longshan!"

The crowd below, hearing these words from Li Ying Xuan Ling, lowered their heads and thought for a moment, then their expressions shook suddenly, and their eyes lit up instantly.

That's right!

The two battles of the Cloud Dragon Army last night were indeed beautifully fought, but judging from the statements of the new army soldiers and Blood Guard Army soldiers who escaped, the overall strength of the Cloud Dragon Army is actually not very strong, and even a small portion of the soldiers' cultivation has not reached the extreme of the Earth-Digging Realm.

The great victories at Changbai Gully and Ningyuan Hill were essentially fought by surprise.

Of course, the choice of ambush location and the reasonable use of the three arms of Cloud Dragon Army—stranger knife, horizontal knife, and scout—on the battlefield also count as two reasons, but that is not the key to victory.

The three thousand Longyou troops she is leading tonight are not only real Earth-Digging Realm extreme cultivation, but the vast majority were brought out by her father Li Tiancheng personally, all of them are old soldiers who have been through many battles, all of them obey orders and prohibit, and are familiar with battle formations and tactics, which is not comparable to the Cloud Dragon Army.

If Great Xia really dares to set an ambush halfway, it is absolutely a dead end!

It's a pity that Li Ying Xuan Ling knows very well that Xia Hong is not that stupid.

"Wu Shuang, Hanqiong, Beehive, all three places are in the hands of Great Xia. Wu Shuang bears the brunt, and its position is the most critical. The first step to drive Great Xia out of Longyou is to take down Wu Shuang. It's just that I don't know if Xia Hong will fight this battle in Wu Shuang!"

Wu Shuang is located in the center of the entire Longyou. From here, the distance to any camp in Longyou is the closest, and its strategic significance is extremely important.

Li Ying Xuan Ling remembers very clearly that when she led the main army to station between Bai Yuan and Wu Shuang, Great Xia once sent a special envoy named Qiu Peng to express that he wanted to govern Wu Shuang with Longshan.

From this matter, it

"The four of you, each take another Frost-Resistant-level fighter, continue to keep an eye on the four directions of Wu Shuang, and pay attention to your own safety. If there is any unusual movement, report back in turns immediately."

"Understood, my lord!"

Li Xuanping, who had tried to pull Li Ying Xuan Ling down from the position of leader just yesterday, now had a much calmer expression. After nodding in agreement with the other three, he turned and walked out of the hall.

Under the snowy night, a large group of people walked out of the Songyuan station in a swarm, beginning to clear the snow path along the way. Three thousand fully armed Longyou soldiers followed closely in a mighty formation, quickly marching toward the Wu Shuang territory on the east side.

The group of Frost-Resistant-level fighters also performed their duties according to the tasks issued by Li Ying Xuan Ling, going to their designated places in advance.

This great battle, which would determine the ownership of Longyou, thus drew its curtain with the Longshan forces taking the initiative to march.
