Tome of Troubled Times

Chapter 683: The enemy is at the gate

Views:

Zhao Changhe drove his black horse with great effort to find a small island, where he leaned on the rocks to take medicine and rest.

The golden light in the sky was still there. Zhao Changhe looked up with a rather strange expression.

This time, the book about troubled times is really crooked.

He was injured in both battles, especially in this one where he was almost unable to move. He scared Feng Yin away completely by intimidation. According to the current status of both sides, it can't even be called a "victory". If the opponent turns around, Longque Xinghe will have to show his ability to save him. The Book of Chaos didn't reflect a single word of it. Shengshengying created an image of being majestic and powerful in exorcising gods and demons, and even said that he was "not inferior to Emperor Xia". It was pure exaggeration.

This is what the blind man calls "help". Zhao Changhe wants to strike back with one punch and to shock others. This is the only way to do it. Otherwise, how would others know that he killed the gods and demons "without any injury"

From now on, we can really gain some peace and stability. At least those who simply covet the Heavenly Book will have to think twice.

On the other hand, this notice is full of malicious intent towards Huang Yangfeng, and others are very likely to target them.

Feng Yin's statement that he "has nothing of value" is bullshit. According to the rules of the secret realm, he can hide somewhere and survive, so he must have treasures to protect him. It is known that Huang Yang and Feng Yin must have treasures, and this time they are the ones who are guilty of possessing treasures...

The gods and demons hid in the ditch because of these trivial things. Everyone's injuries have not fully recovered, and they lack confidence. No one wants to be reported to the Book of Chaos and be targeted by others. This time, both of them were known to be injured, and there will be endless trouble in the future.

I don't know why the blind man is so helpful. As she said before, even if all the heavenly books were taken away by others, she would go with that person. It doesn't matter whether Zhao Changhe is dead or alive. Is he helping so much this time just to kill these gods and demons? Well, she has shown this before. She has always been secretly stirring up trouble. Women are the most vicious.

Of course, apart from this crooked wording, the blind man himself must also issue a new bulletin.

In theory, the Chaos Ranking will only report matches that change the ranking. These ancient gods and demons are not on the ranking, and neither winning nor losing will cause changes, so they cannot be reported. But this is obviously not adapted to the changes of the times. Why are these gods and demons outside the ranking

When things change, we must be prepared for change. The list of troubled times should indeed be updated, and these people should be included in the calculation of the list.

But this update is very difficult, how do we rank them

Theoretically, their practice must be in the top three of the Heavenly Ranking. If things go wrong, the Heavenly Ranking will be filled with gods and demons, and everyone else will have to go to the Earthly Ranking.

But can cultivation represent combat power? The reason why the Chaos List used to be ranked only by combat performance is because cultivation cannot represent everything. The actual combat level is more important. Only after fighting can we determine who is stronger. Now these gods and demons have emerged one by one. We can't just estimate their positions. This is not the Potential Dragon List, which can estimate potential.

Now they "lost" to Zhao Changhe, who is ranked second on the Earth Ranking, so the two Yujing are ranked third and fourth on the Earth Ranking? Isn't this funny... Even if they are ranked like this, who is third and who is fourth between them

There is no way to arrange it.

Therefore, we can only "re-arrange at another day". At least more gods and demons need to appear, and there need to be more samples of their fights with other people on the list, before we can make a rough re-arrangement.

Zhao Changhe roughly understood the situation and said, "Anyway, thank you. This crooked butt is very important to me... Otherwise, I really can't stand the constant coveting and won't do anything."

The blind man remained silent.

Zhao Changhe said, "You said before that you were just honestly reporting the facts of the Heavenly Dao, and you could only play with the wording a little bit, and I believed it. This time you went beyond the wording, which is contrary to the facts. It should not be that you lied to me before, but that you can now customize the rules to a certain extent, right?"

The blind man said, "It's not possible to customize it. Rules are rules. I'm just playing tricks with the wording. In general, you did win, but you used a different style."

"Tsk... Journalism..."

"You have time to worry about how I write a book, but aren't you anxious about the battle over there?" Zhao Changhe looked inward for a moment, then shook his head with some difficulty: "I must take the time to recover immediately, otherwise I will be dead if Feng Yin finds me. As for the battle over there..."

He paused and smiled slightly: "I believe Yangyang."

The blind man felt a little nauseous.

… …

Zhao Changhe's battle lasted from night to dawn. During such a long period of time, the progress of the battle over there had almost become a mess.

When Zhao Changhe and Huang Yan were fighting to the death, Wan Dongliu and the Wang family's army that was trying to take over the city met on the road. The psychological preparations of both sides were not at the same level. The Wang family's army was defeated without any suspense. Wan Dongliu led his army directly to Lanling. The Lanling defenders abandoned the city and fled. Before dawn, Lanling changed its master.

This is the last barrier south of Langya, and the Wang family's lair is ahead...

Earlier, Cui Yuanyong digested the surrendered soldiers in Juancheng and marched eastward again. Everywhere he passed, the soldiers surrendered. When the battle here broke out, Cui Yuanyong's men had already arrived at Weishan Lake.

Speed is of the essence in war. Neither Cui Yuanyong nor Wan Dongliu had time to slowly organize their troops. No one knew what tricks the Hu people or the Li and Yang families would come up with. Everyone agreed that the sooner the battle was over, the better. A few days later, something bad might happen.

So when Zhao Changhe was hiding to heal his wounds, in the evening of that day, Cui Yuanyong's vanguard met with Wan Dongliu and headed straight for Langya.

It has only been a few days since Cui Yuanyong and Zhao Changhe left Qinghe... Within a few days, the Wang family's seemingly powerful army surrendered or fled, and the seemingly complete depth defense was destroyed. The Langya old nest directly became the front line, and it collapsed faster than Yuan Shu.

It all started with an arrow shot across the river, which completely destroyed the logic of war.

There were almost no obstacles along the way, and we were basically marching instead of fighting.

Until the enemy was at the gates, Wang Daozhong had no idea how all this happened. He had a large number of soldiers and generals, and the support of gods and demons, but it was as if he didn't exist at all. The enemy was just like a tourist, charging all the way to his city.

However, Langya is different from the surrounding areas. It is the Wang family's base, and it will not collapse at the touch of a button like other places. Now it is winter again, and everyone knows that this kind of environment and climate is very unfavorable for attacking the city.

"Don't panic. We still have tens of thousands of soldiers in the city. In this snowy winter, water on the city wall turns into ice. Who can attack the city?" Wang Daozhong's face was as gloomy as water. He encouraged the generals in the meeting room: "Early when my eldest brother and Li Gongsi died in the capital, we formed an offensive and defensive alliance with each family. As long as we hold on for a few days, they will take action! The Four Symbols Sect's control over the capital may not be stable. The capital is actually very empty. The longer it drags on, the more likely they will have problems!"

Gui Chen nodded as he sat on the guest seat: "Cui Yuanyong and Wan Dongliu have made such a bold advance. This is not the way to fight. Our Taiyi Sect will do its utmost to help defend the city. As long as we defend for a few days, they will be exhausted and collapse without a fight."

Wang Daozhong heaved a sigh of relief. It was indeed worth it for the Wang family to respect Guichen so much. A highly respected person on the Earth Ranking came to help at this time. He deliberately asked, "Zhao Changhe's battle with the gods and demons..."

Gui Chen said leisurely, "I don't know what's going on with the report in the Book of Chaos this time... But Zhao Changhe can't possibly be unscathed after fighting two gods and demons in a row. At least in the short term, we don't need to worry about Zhao Changhe's participation in the battle. In addition, I think Mr. Daozhong has also obtained the third secret treasure, right?"

Wang Daozhong thought to himself that he was waiting for you to say this, and immediately stroked his beard and smiled: "Yes, I had a lucky breakthrough a few days ago."

“In fact, Zhao Changhe is only at this level. He must have relied on other things to defeat the gods and demons, but it will never happen again. Even if he really participates in the battle, we may not be afraid.” Gui Chen smiled and said, “If he can’t participate, then there is no need to mention... Just relying on Cui Yuanyong, Wan Dongliu, and Xue Canghai? How can they get in!”

With everyone singing the same tune, the original gloomy atmosphere in the meeting hall really disappeared, and everyone in the Wang family said excitedly: "If this is the case, Cui Yuanyong will never come back!"
