Chapter 384

On the official road.

A large team of Annan Town soldiers ran for their lives, not even having time to take their mounts, and some didn't even wear their armor properly.

Truly throwing away helmets and armor.

Suddenly!

Fu Tao, who was walking in the front, shouted: "Stop!"

Not only him, but the other Primordial martial artists also turned their heads and looked toward Po Jun Fortress.

Another Assistant Regional Commander muttered to himself:

"It's the Marquis who took action."

In Yunzhou, there is no need to add a surname before the word Marquis, because there is only one.

That is the Saint of War of the world, Marquis of Annan, Yuan Dingting.

At this time.

A heart-palpitating battle pressure came from the south, and then a huge silver spear, at least a hundred feet high, was seen shooting into the sky.

Two divine lights shot toward the Ten Thousand Mountains.

"It's the Marquis, we are saved!"

A soldier was overjoyed.

The feeling of surviving a disaster almost made him collapse on the ground, crying with joy.

Only those who have experienced it know how terrifying that evil Daoist was.

Fu Tao and others discussed.

Finally, they resolutely decided to return to Po Jun City.

Marquis Yuan had already taken action; if they were still timid and afraid of death at this time, how could they win a future?

They couldn't let Marquis Yuan see that Po Jun Fortress was already empty.

Immediately.

Fu Tao led the people back to Po Jun Fortress.

Just as they walked into the open city gate, they saw Liu Qing leading Nie Siming, Yuan Xiong, and others already standing on the drill ground.

"Mr. Liu."

Seeing Liu Qing, a trace of shame flashed in the eyes of Fu Tao and others.

This time it was truly a huge loss of face.

Although if given another chance, they would still do the same.

In the face of life and death, how could they care about face?

Liu Qing looked at the few people faintly: "Speak, what exactly happened?"

While speaking, he also looked toward the Ten Thousand Mountains.

It actually alarmed this great god Yuan Dingting.

Fu Tao immediately told everything that had just happened in detail.

Listening, Liu Qing's expression gradually became solemn.

Just as he thought, the one who took action was a Fallen Immortal.

"You mean, he was attracted by something, so he left Po Jun Fortress?"

"Yes."

Fu Tao nodded.

At this time, a soldier couldn't help but say: "That evil Daoist should have been lured away by Lord Li. Lord Li risked his life alone for Po Jun Fortress, so we were able to hold on until the Marquis appeared."

Fu Tao glanced at the soldier, wanting to say something, but finally chose to shut up.

Nie Siming was shocked and asked hurriedly: "Then where is Lord Li?"

Fu Tao sighed: "Don't know, he should have been in the city, don't know why he hasn't been seen."

"Brother Li."

Nie Siming widened his eyes.

If Li Rui really did as the soldier said, luring away that evil Daoist alone, he was probably in great danger now.

Just as Nie Siming and Yuan Xiong were about to leave the city to find Li Rui.

They saw Li Rui with a pale face, walking in somewhat disheveled from under the huge city gate of Po Jun Fortress.

"Mr. Liu, Brother Nie, Brother Yuan, you're back?"

Seeing Li Rui appear.

The crowd hurriedly surrounded him.

Fu Tao couldn't help but be curious: "Lord Li, just now..."

Li Rui: "Chased by that evil Daoist, fortunately, I am still a guest minister of the Wenxian Tower, and Tower Master Gu gave me some life-saving means, so I was able to drag it out until Marquis Yuan arrived."

Hearing this.

The crowd suddenly understood.

So it was the means of that famous Tower Master Gu.

It was no wonder he could block the evil Daoist.

Li Rui's explanation was reasonable; how could a Primordial survive under the hands of a Top Three Rank expert? A casual slap would kill him, with no chance to struggle.

Little did they know, Li Rui had actually blocked a strike from Sheng Daoren.

Of course.

He wouldn't say this.

Fu Tao and the other Primordial martial artists looked at each other, then bowed to Li Rui together:

"Thank you, Lord Li, for saving our lives."

Li Rui smiled slightly: "Everyone, we are all people of the same city, no need for this."

Although he said so.

Fu Tao and the others didn't think so.

According to the situation at the time, if Li Rui hadn't lured away that evil Daoist, Po Jun Fortress would have been a dead city by now.

Seeing Fu Tao and the others stubborn.

Li Rui had no choice but to accept this kindness.

"Safe and sound."

That is, he had enough trump cards; if it were someone else, I'm afraid they would have died a thousand times.

How could a Fallen Immortal be so easy to resist?

He had long known that Gu Changsheng had hidden true qi in him; Gu Changsheng himself said so, a total of five traces.

One must know, even a Town Mountain Envoy only has two traces.

This is the benefit of having a backer.

Besides that, he had actually invited the guest minister of the Secret Guard with his tongue-tip blood a few days ago.

That guest minister had always been nearby and never went too far.

He thought the guest minister would be very strong.

But he never expected that he would actually invite this great god Yuan Dingting.

It was truly unexpected. "Yuan Dingting is actually a guest minister of the Secret Guard!"

Li Rui had once realized a trace of the Saint of War's true intent, so he could feel Yuan Dingting's presence from a hundred miles away.

Seemingly dangerous, but in fact, every step had been calculated.

Just then—

A heaven-shaking movement came from the direction of the Ten Thousand Mountains.

A huge immortal sword collided with Yuan Dingting's spear, and the terrifying shockwave could be felt even in Po Jun City, a hundred miles away.

The crowd in the city marveled at Marquis Yuan's strength.

At the same time, they were also shocked that there was such an expert in the Purple Chai Jingong.

About a quarter of an hour later.

Yuan Dingting appeared in Po Jun City with his hands behind his back.

The crowd hurriedly greeted him:

!

"Marquis."

Yuan Dingting looked at the crowd faintly, especially looking at Li Rui a few more times, then said faintly: "That evil Daoist has been eliminated."

Hearing this.

The crowd in the city breathed a long sigh of relief.

Only those who have experienced it know how terrifying that evil Daoist was.

They didn't want to encounter him again.

Fortunately, Marquis Yuan took action and killed that strange Daoist.

As for why Yuan Dingting appeared in Po Jun Fortress, no one dared to ask.

Yuan Dingting finished speaking.

Then he turned and left, not staying in Po Jun Fortress.

Liu Qing, Nie Siming, and Yuan Xiong followed tacitly.

At this time.

Yuan Dingting turned his head and said slowly: "Li Rui, you come too."

Hearing this, the soldiers of the city were so envious.

Yuan Dingting is the God of War of the Yu Kingdom, the god in the hearts of all Yu Kingdom soldiers; how could they not be envious to be favored by Yuan Dingting?

Li Rui didn't freeze.

Immediately quickening his pace, he came to the side of Nie Siming and the other three.

Until they left the city.

Yuan Dingting then waved his hand at the three of Liu Qing: "I have something to say to Li Rui."

The three retreated to the side.

Li Rui followed Yuan Dingting silently for about a hundred feet before stopping.

Yuan Dingting turned around, looking at Li Rui with a smile that was not a smile: "Able to block a strike from that demon Daoist, well done."

Li Rui just wanted to speak.

Yuan Dingting waved his hand: "It doesn't matter if you practice immortal arts, that is your ability."

Saying this.

A yellowed cultivation technique fell from his sleeve.

"This was obtained from that demon Daoist; looking at it, it's still a bit useful to you."

"Some things, when you reach Tongxuan, you will naturally understand."

With a swish.

The cultivation technique fell into Li Rui's hand.

Then Yuan Dingting came to the front of Nie Siming and the other three without looking back, gave a few instructions, and then flew into the air, disappearing into the sky in the blink of an eye.

The next day.

Li Rui heroically protected the city and was seriously injured, so Regional Commander Zhou specially approved him to return to Qinghe to recuperate and sit in the rear.

Regarding this.

No one had any objections.

If it weren't for Li Rui.

A Po Jun Fortress would have directly become an empty city.

Li Rui was not injured; hearing Nie Siming, this was the Marquis's intention.

Probably because a Fallen Immortal of the Purple Chai Jingong was killed, and the Purple Chai Jingong couldn't afford to offend Yuan Dingting, so maybe they would find Li Rui to vent their anger.

It was not safe to continue staying in Po Jun Fortress.

Li Rui gained fortune out of misfortune and became leisurely instead.

The Annan Town camp in Qinghe at this time looked extremely deserted, with most people on the front line.

There are not many who are sunbathing like Li Rui.

"It's still comfortable in the city."

There are countless experts in Qinghe City, and Regional Commander Zhou Dinghai sits in command.

Not afraid of a surprise attack by the Purple Chai Jingong at all.

Of course, it is much safer than staying in Po Jun Fortress.

He was just about to get up to practice.

Actually saw lines of small characters appearing before his eyes.
