Everyone was so shocked by his reaction that they couldn’t react for a while.
“Fellow Daoist ye!”
Qi Tiandao hurriedly gave chase.
“Withdraw the court!”
Yun Yi looked at the crowd coldly and left with a flick of her sleeves.
As they left, the officials of the Imperial court looked at each other and couldn’t help but look at each other.
“My Lords,” one of the officials said weakly,”we’ve discussed for a long time, but we don’t seem to have come up with an effective plan to withdraw the Army. What can we do?”
“Why don’t we invite that Mr. Ye back?”
“This is a matter of life and death,” a fifth-rank official couldn’t help but say.”Our great sects and empires are surrounded in many places. Now, we can only try everything we can to save a dead horse.”
“Laughable!”
At this moment, the Prime Minister, Gu Yifu, sneered,””Imperial Preceptor seems to be really old. He actually placed the hopes of our great sects and empires on an outsider!”
Speaking of this, he said indifferently,””I don’t believe that we are really at the end of our rope. Furthermore, there is no news of Yandang pass falling. We still have hope …”
“The Prime Minister’s words are reasonable. Yandang pass is guarded by the great general han. In addition, it is easy to defend but difficult to attack. How can the rebels attack …”
“That’s right. Before he left, he even told us not to beg him. It’s simply ridiculous. We are high officials of the Imperial court. Why would we beg a commoner?”
“Even if I die, I won’t beg for a boy.”
“……”
The rest of the ministers chimed in and agreed.
……
Outside the Imperial Palace.
Qi Tiandao quickly caught up to ye chen and sighed.”They are all civil officials. They are good at nothing but talking. Why do you mind them?”
Ye chen suddenly stopped and turned around to look at him. “You’re wrong, this ye isn’t haggling with them, but shouldn’t have meddled in other people’s business!”
After saying that, he left resolutely.
Seeing that he had already made up his mind, Qi Tiandao could only smile bitterly and disappear into the hazy night.
That night, several military orders were issued from the capital.
The chain reaction that was triggered was that countless troops headed south, charging towards Yandang pass. They clearly wanted to reinforce this last barrier.
Next, Imperial advisor Qi Tiandao personally led 200000 troops to the border to resist the attack of the 500000 troops of the Qing Kingdom.
The security of Longjing city began to tighten. Only people were allowed to leave and not enter. The royal guards, Imperial Guards, and city defense Army set up three lines of defense between Yandang pass and Longjing city.
At the same time, the Ministry of War began to mobilize the people overnight to recruit soldiers and horses, and the person in charge was the current Prime Minister, Gu Yifu.
In less than two hours, he had successfully gathered an Army of three hundred and fifty thousand.
“As expected of the Prime Minister, such efficiency can be said to be god-like …” A Minister praised.
Gu Yifu stroked his beard and laughed.”This time, we have gathered 300000 troops. I have already submitted a request to the Empress Dowager. My son, Gu you, will take them South.”
“With young master Gu personally leading the Army, we will definitely win and break through the enemy forces, helping our sect to escape …”
The assistant Minister’s face was full of respect.”We shall congratulate the Prime Minister in advance. Once the rebels retreat, the Prime Minister’s name will definitely shake the major sects. Your prestige may even surpass the Imperial advisor ‘s.”
“It’s extreme, extreme …”
The rest of them nodded.
“It’s all for the sake of the big sect!”Gu Yifu pretended to be humble.
The Empress Dowager’s chamber.
Yun Yi looked at herself in the mirror in a daze, her body a little stiff.””Mr. Ye is missing?”
“Empress Dowager, the people I sent to investigate have reported that the residence has long been empty …” An old eunuch bowed.
“It looks like Mr. Ye has really left …”
Yun Yi’s eyes dimmed, and she suddenly felt a sense of bitterness in her heart. She then took a deep breath and said,””Fine, I was too selfish. After all, Mr. Ye is not a member of my sect …”
“However, I don’t know when I’ll be able to see Mr. Ye again after this farewell …”
“Or maybe we won’t meet again in this life …”
She didn’t dare and couldn’t think about it when the mountains and rivers were swaying!
……
Less than a thousand miles away from the Dragon Capital, in an extremely well-hidden mountain Valley.
The terrain here was relatively low, and it was a natural cave that extended nearly a thousand feet deep into the ground. If an ordinary person fell in, they would definitely be smashed to pieces.
At this moment, two figures, one big and one small, appeared near the cave. They stood still in the face of the huge suction force coming from the cave.
“This is the place!”
Ye chen held his daughter and quietly examined the cave in front of him.”Qi Tiandao once said that the teleportation wormholes of the great sects and dynasties are located here. It seems that he didn’t lie to me.”
“Now that I have the teleportation token of a great sect and dynasty, I can teleport to the other five places.”
His eyes flickered,’it’s just that I don’t know where Yuhan and my parents are now, and where it should be passed to. The eastern barren territory? The southern region? Western Desert? Or the middle state or the heaven wind sea region?”
“There’s a Shepherd king’s castle in the heaven wind sea region, and I have a relationship with it. Perhaps I can borrow their strength to find Yuhan and the others …”
Ye chen thought to himself.
The little thing was in his arms, looking down with her hands around her neck. She was afraid of heights and said,”Dad, are we going to jump down from here?”
“If you’re afraid, close your eyes. Open them when daddy calls you …” Ye chen kissed her affectionately.
His wife was not here, his parents were not here, his brothers and friends were not here either. Fortunately, he still had his daughter to accompany him.
At this moment, his ears quivered a few times and he suddenly looked into the distance.
From that direction, several auras were speeding towards them. Four of them had actually reached the martial arts Grandmaster level.
Ye Chen’s eyes flickered a few times, then he made a shushing gesture to his daughter and his body gradually disappeared into the void.
“窸窸窣窣……”
A moment later, four figures landed near the cave. They were four men, and the leader was a fat Daoist.
The fat Taoist looked down at the cave for a few seconds and said,””Daoist Wu, are you sure that the wormhole below is the hidden one of the great sects and the royal family?”
An old man with freckles behind him said,””Fellow Daoist Lu, this secret was discovered by my master, the substitute King. It’s absolutely true. How can there be any mistake?”
“Since it was the substitute king who discovered it, then there’s no mistake.”
“Now that the eight kings are pressing down on Yandang pass, we have to destroy this wormhole to prevent the royal family from escaping to other regions …” The plump Daoist nodded.
“What?”
The other three were shocked. Someone said,””Fellow Daoist Wu, it wasn’t easy to build it impulsively. Once it’s destroyed, it will completely cut off the connection between our Northern Territory and other regions.”
“I can’t care so much anymore.”
“I heard that a few days ago, a devil suddenly appeared in the southern region. He wreaked havoc in the entire southern region and wiped out many great sects overnight …” The fat Daoist said.
“The demon fellow Daoist Wu is talking about, is it a corpse Emperor? It is said that he has killed many powerful people and even forced a martial Saint to attack, but it was still difficult to stop his power!”
Someone sucked in a cold breath.
