Chapter 14
"As for Chi... what do you think."
"What do I think, he wants to fight, then let’s fight!"
"We’re not afraid of him."
Picking up a Sunsettia from the table, Jiang Yan took a big bite.
Then his face wrinkled.
So sour!
"As long as you have confidence."
Morax nodded.
"But this time, Morax."
Jiang Yan walked to the window and calmly threw the Sunsettia out.
"Don't go to this war."
Hearing Jiang Yan’s words, Morax was stunned for a moment.
"What do you mean by this?"
It wasn't just Morax; almost everyone present, whether Archon or Adeptus, was stunned.
"A-Yan......"
Ganyu walked up and gently pulled Jiang Yan, and Jiang Yan shook his head at her with a smile.
"Please, Morax, haven't you realized it yet?"
Jiang Yan looked at everyone’s expressions, his tone turning very helpless.
He reached out and pointed at the crowd.
"You are Morax, the Geo Archon here."
"You are the leader, the protector of this Guili Plains."
"Look at us, it’s not like we lack Archon-level combat power. To be honest, I could kill them all by leading the army alone in this battle."
"But Guili Plains is our rear area, and there isn't just one Chi Dragon in the surroundings!"
"The Dream Archon, the Vortex Archon, there are dozens of scattered Archon tribes near Guili Plains!"
"They are all staring at this battle."
"Don't you understand the meaning of this battle?"
Everyone frowned, and even Morax began to ponder.
"You mean..."
"That’s right."
Jiang Yan nodded, his gaze looking out the window.
"This time, we must defeat Chi in front of all the Archons with an absolute crushing posture!"
"Since we need an absolute crushing posture, why don't we all go?"
This time, there was no need for Jiang Yan to answer; Guizhong, who possessed high wisdom, had already answered Morax’s doubt.
"Little Jiang Yan’s meaning should be that this war needs to both guard against sneak attacks from various Archons and achieve an absolute victory in the war against Chi."
"Right?"
Jiang Yan nodded, looked around at everyone, and said:
"This time, you only need to guard against the movements of the various Archons around Guili Plains."
"Twenty years, Chi certainly won't be unprepared."
"This battle, let me handle it."
Morax stared at Jiang Yan.
"Confident?"
"Firmly in control."
Jiang Yan grinned, and suddenly heard the exclamation from outside.
Jiang Yan looked into the distance and suddenly said to everyone:
"The Millelith have arrived, shall we go see them together?"
Everyone was also very curious about the Millelith that Jiang Yan had trained for five years.
Especially Cloud Retainer and Guizhong.
Jiang Yan’s consumption over these five years was not low!
Whether it was food or steel, Jiang Yan’s consumption was like a bottomless pit, which also made the Adepti very confused.
But this doubt and questioning disappeared without a trace the moment they saw the Millelith.
"DONG! DONG! DONG!......"
They saw that on the outskirts of the Guili Plains urban area, the Millelith were gathering like a black river. They had firm expressions, held cross-spears, and their black-gold armor, combined with their faint sharp momentum, shocked the surrounding people until their faces turned pale.
"So... such a terrifying army!"
The surrounding people muttered, and suddenly heard someone in the crowd exclaim.
"Hey! Isn't that Erwazi?"
"Aunt Kang! That’s your Erwazi, right? He joined the army formed by the Immortal Master five years ago."
This sentence also caused the surrounding people to explode.
"I said that person looked so familiar, it really is him!"
"Is this the army formed by the Immortal Master? So strong!"
"Look, that’s my child! Don't say, he looks quite handsome wearing this armor."
The Millelith soldiers stood with their spears at their sides, their bodies standing straight. Although there was excitement in their eyes at seeing their relatives, no one made a sound.
Strict orders and prohibitions; their commander didn't order them to disband on the spot, so they couldn't move freely!
They stood quietly, and the momentum they radiated was like a waking lion, carrying a faint deterrent and the smell of blood.
To train this momentum, the monsters around the Mount Tianheng range were cleared out again and again.
"It’s truly incredible......"
Moon Carver looked at the army in front of him and sighed.
"In just five years, to be able to train such a powerful army, the potential of humans is indeed not to be underestimated."
Guizhong stood beside Morax and sighed.
"It’s just that the food and steel required for these ten thousand troops is already terrifying."
"Perhaps it is precisely because of this that the Millelith can possess such strength in just five years!"
Morax also nodded and said.
"Look! It’s the Immortal Master!"
"The Immortal Master is back!"
"Immortal Master! Is this the army you trained?"
"Is your army still recruiting people now?"
Jiang Yan walked up, his silver hair and pointed ears being particularly recognizable.
The people of Guili Plains could be said to all know this Wood Spirit Immortal who often wandered the streets and surrounding fields. ===== CHAPTER 33 =====
Jiang Yan chatted happily with the surrounding people.
For the older generation of people, this young Immortal Master was someone they watched grow up step by step from a boy.
Although he was an Immortal Master, Jiang Yan himself was very kind and never boasted about his strength in front of the people.
And the soft and cute appearance of Jiang Yan in his childhood always made the people forget the fact that he was an Immortal Master.
Arriving in front of the Millelith, Jiang Yan’s originally laughing face restrained, his eyes carrying seriousness.
He stared carefully at every soldier in front of him, looking at their firm faces.
And at this time, Morax also walked to his side.
"Lord of Geo......"
The people nearby discovered the god they worshipped and bowed their heads in piety one after another.
"Lord Rex Lapis."
Jiang Yan suddenly spoke up.
Morax turned his head to look at him.
"Say a few words to them. As a leader, you must give a pre-war declaration before the battle, right?"
Jiang Yan turned and left.
"Where are you going?"
Seeing this, Morax asked hurriedly.
"I'm going to change into my battle robes. I can't go to war wearing a long gown, can I?"
"This kid..."
Morax shook his head with a smile. He turned to look at the Millelith soldiers before him, their eyes burning with fervor and their faces full of reverence.
After a good while, a youth dressed in cyan-gold battle robes appeared by Morax's side.
Come to think of it, this cyan-gold battle robe was actually sewn for him by Cloud Retainer.
Jiang Yan had been happy for a long time when he first received it.
To this day, this battle robe could finally be said to have served its purpose.
Looking at the high-spirited Millelith, Jiang Yan said to Morax with a smile:
"It seems your encouragement was quite effective."
The corners of Morax's mouth curled up slightly as he patted Jiang Yan on the shoulder.
"Be sure to stay safe this time."
Jiang Yan nodded, turned around, and said to the soldiers:
"Millelith, hear my command!"
Over ten thousand Millelith soldiers struck their spears against the ground and stood straight.
"March!"
Under the gaze of the common people, the Millelith marched in a grand procession toward Dihua Marsh.
Morax stood there quietly, his gaze fixed on the figure walking at the very front of the marching army in the distance.
"Worried about him?"
Guizhong walked up quietly and spoke softly.
"Ah..."
Morax responded in a low voice.
"Chi is a veteran Archon; no one knows what trump cards it possesses. Jiang Yan is at an age of youthful recklessness, so I am inevitably a bit worried."
Watching Morax's words of concern, which were like those of an old father, Guizhong covered her mouth and smiled.
"Relax, little Jiang Yan's strength is already no weaker than yours or Azhdaha's. You must trust him."
Morax nodded, then turned to Guizhong and said, "Tell the adepti not to leave yet. Although Jiang Yan has taken over the front lines, we still need to deploy for logistics and the other borders of Guili Plains where Archons might be."
"Mm."
Guizhong nodded and left the area.
Only Morax remained.
Morax watched the surging army ahead until it was no longer visible, then he too departed.
The movements in Guili Plains naturally could not be hidden from other Archons.
Dunyu Ruins.
The Archon of Dreams, with an enchanting face and a seductive figure, stood quietly on a hillside.
She crossed her arms, a hint of playfulness on her alluring face.
Morax... in just twenty years, he has actually been able to grow to such a degree.
It is a pity that this is as far as he will grow.
If only he could be controlled...
Perhaps the great cause could be achieved!
"Archon of Dreams! Chi has sent word for you to act according to the agreement."
A black-robed figure flashed in and knelt on one knee.
"Mm, have the Yakshas all gathered?"
The Archon of Dreams did not turn back, only asking indifferently.
"Yes, but... their condition does not seem very good."
The black-robed figure spoke.
"Heh... a bunch of beasts addicted to dreams who only know how to kill. As long as they can get on the battlefield, what does it matter if their condition is good or not?"
Clearly, the Archon of Dreams did not care at all about the mental state of these Yakshas.
"...The Archon of Dreams is right!"
The black-robed figure fell silent for a moment, then lowered his head in agreement.
"Prepare to head to Dihua Marsh."
"Wait quietly for the right opportunity."
After the Archon of Dreams finished her instructions, her figure suddenly vanished.
The black-robed figure did not look up, but stood up and left with his head bowed.
Archons from all sides were making their moves; only the Sea of Clouds seemed to have no activity at all.
Several days later.
Dihua Marsh.
Chi led its subordinates and the army of monsters under its control into Dihua Marsh, closing in on Guili Plains.
They met the Millelith army led by Jiang Yan head-on.
The war, at this moment,
was on the verge of breaking out! ===== CHAPTER 35 =====
