“…”
For a moment, the battlefield that had been filled with roars of killings just now fell into a strange calm. The people below were waiting for orders from above with their own thoughts, nervousness or excitement, while the powerful Soul Emperors above , all of them were facing each other with solemn expressions. Almost everyone's soul power was operating to the extreme, ready to start a new round of war at any time.
However, now if we look at it in terms of quantity, the three sects have lost two people, while the Yao clan has gained two people. The previous 'balance' has been broken. Once the war starts, if the Yao clan is restrained, If the others use their extra strength to break through one by one at the same time, the three sects and one side are likely to fall into an unfavorable situation. Although there is Qin Bangjie at the half-emperor level here, no matter how strong he is, it does not mean that he can face no matter how many souls he faces. A powerful emperor can be undefeated. Even if he dealt with four seventh-level soul beasts with ease before, if there are one or two more late-stage soul emperors, I'm afraid it won't be like this...
It can be said that the previous situation was still beneficial to the three sects. Although the Yao Clan had an army of soul beasts that exceeded expectations, they did have a strong Half-Emperor who could defeat many with one. As long as Qin Bangjie used powerful means to defeat the Yao Clan. If some of the strong ones on one side are destroyed, then sooner or later one of the three sects will gain a complete victory.
But now the appearance of Dan Teng and Wu Dijian has caused a subtle change in the situation. If the three sects and one side do not have other stronger means, the outcome of another war may be unknown...
Almost everyone glanced at Qin Bangjie involuntarily from the corner of their eyes. After all, he was the strongest here. Even if the people of Fenglei Sect and Beast Taming Sect didn't really regard him as a 'leader', if they finally If he was too strong to do anything, they wouldn't dare to act rashly.
"..." Qin Bangjie's face was gloomy, and his face hidden under the loose robe made it difficult to see clearly. His eyes flickered slightly, scanning the bodies of the Yao Clan one by one, and then glanced at the Yao Clan people in a subtle way. The medicine city in the back...
"Great Elder, it's almost time. If Zeng Quanshi and the others succeeded, they should have come out by now..."
At this moment, Xu Qianqing's voice quietly reached Qin Bangjie's ears. He glanced around and saw that there was no change on the surface, but his eyes were also scanning the direction of Medicine City in an extremely covert manner.
Qin Bangjie's eyes narrowed, and he seemed to have finally made a decision. The slightly calm soul power in his body began to fluctuate rapidly again, which made many people on the Yao Clan's side feel nervous. But then, he raised his hand and waved. , said coldly: "Withdraw!!"
"What?!"
As soon as his order came out, most people were stunned. Although some people had already begun to retreat, they all thought that they might fight again and then temporarily withdraw their troops. However, Qin Bangjie actually gave the order to retreat directly. Order.
Moreover, Qin Bangjie was not just talking. After he gave the order, the people from the Soul Refining Sect began to retreat!
"Wait a minute! Elder Qian of my clan is still in their hands!"
The late soul emperor from Fenglei Sect looked extremely ugly and couldn't help but say that his idea just now was to at least fight for one more round to see if he could rescue the elder who was captured by Dan Teng. Now Qin Bangjie will retreat without fighting. That is to say, be prepared to risk death and completely give up on the captured person.
Qin Bangjie glanced at He Changkai expressionlessly and said coldly: "If you want to save people, you can do it now. I won't stop you."
"You!!" He Changkai was furious - if Qin Bangjie and others didn't take action, how could he dare to save people
Ma Xucheng's eyes changed again and again, and finally he seemed to have made a decision. He waved his hand with a sullen face, indicating that his side was also preparing to retreat. At the same time, a message was transmitted to He Changkai's ears and said: "The enemy's combat power far exceeds our expectations. If we start a war rashly, I'm afraid Even if we win, we will suffer heavy losses, so we should go back and make long-term plans..."
"..." Listening to Ma Xucheng's persuasion, He Changkai's eyes kept twitching, and he cursed in his heart - the people who were captured just now were from the Soul Refining Sect and his Fengling Sect, and the people from the Beast Control Sect were spared. It's hard. No matter how I listen to Ma Xucheng's words now, I feel a sense of schadenfreude.
Glancing at the elder Qian held in Dan Teng's hand, He Changkai's face turned ugly, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Let's go!"
…
In an instant, the armies of the three sects retreated like a tide. Even when they disappeared into the jungle in the distance, many people from the Yao Clan had not yet reacted.
—The enemy just... retreated? !
After a moment of silence, loud cheers suddenly erupted outside Medicine City!
Finally... the enemy was finally repulsed!
The people of the Yao Clan have never faced such a big event before. It can be said that everyone is extremely nervous. Although they are determined to defend their homeland to the death, almost everyone has some uncontrollable fear in their hearts, even if they are fighting there. Among them, there are also many people who are extremely uncomfortable and are helpless when facing the enemy. As a result, many people are injured or even killed by enemies of equal strength...
The battle, which lasted less than ten minutes, could be said to be a baptism for these Medicine Clan disciples, allowing them to truly realize the cruelty of battle. Although the spirit beast army was extremely ferocious and large tracts of the enemy were killed, seeing their own side The spirit beasts and even the tribesmen also died one by one. Everyone was so anxious that they wished to eliminate all these enemies immediately.
Now, although the enemy has not been completely eliminated, it has been made so that the enemy does not dare to fight anymore and retreats. This is considered a victory!
At least... no more tribesmen and spiritual beasts need to be sacrificed for the time being.
Soon, several elders of the Medicine Clan went down to direct the cleaning of the battlefield, gathering the corpses that the enemy had not collected in time, and taking back all the remains of the tribe and spirit beasts. Soon, everyone quickly returned to the Medicine City. middle.
Outside Medicine City, within a radius of ten miles, there were only countless potholes, cracks and dark red bloodstains. In many places, the whole area was almost completely soaked in blood, indicating the brutality of the battle just now...
…
On the other side, Yao Wuchen, Dan Teng, Wu Dijian and others flew directly back to the city and headed for the meeting hall in the center of the city.
Along the way, Wu Dijian, who was beside Danteng, looked at this huge city in the deserted forest with great interest, sighing from time to time, and muttering something in a low voice that only he could hear clearly.
When he was approaching the main hall in the center of the city, Wu Dijian couldn't bear it anymore and said to Danteng next to him: "Tsk, tsk, brother Danteng, I never thought that your Medicine Refining Sect could actually build such a place in the Qimang Mountains. , It’s really amazing! If I hadn’t followed you here this time, I would never have imagined that the legendary refining sect’s legacy would be hidden here... "
After hearing his sigh, Dan Teng couldn't help but reveal a wry smile, shook his head and said: "The Medicine Refining Sect... no longer exists, and there is only the 'Medicine Clan' today. Our clan has secluded itself from the world for two thousand years, just because we don't want to participate in the sinister conflicts of the world anymore." But I didn’t expect that I couldn’t hide in the end. No matter how deep I hid, I would still be found by them... "
Wu Dijian also showed a trace of depression on his face, and sighed: "Well, since the beginning of the rebellion, our side has been very passive! Many of the enemy's movements cannot be known in advance, and we do not know much of the information they know - nothing The sudden outbreak of the rebellion that they had been preparing for for who knows how many years really caught people off guard!"
Dan Teng was silent for a moment, sighing helplessly in his heart. Nowadays, the world is in chaos, wars are raging, the entire soul master world has been completely collapsed, and battles continue. As the only person in the Yao Clan who has joined the world, he had no intention of participating in it. But the current situation seems to be that it may not be possible—not only for myself, but also for the entire Yao Clan.
He lives in seclusion in the capital. Although many strong men in the capital know his existence, he is too mysterious and always 'keeps himself', so there is no trouble. After all, such indifferent and reclusive strong men are not common in the world. It's rare that no one will have anything to do when they're full and insist on finding out all the eighteen generations of someone's ancestors.
In the past six months, the soul master world has been in turmoil, with large and small battles happening almost every day. There are even many battles between powerful soul emperors, so there are naturally a lot of 'injured people', and with it, he The business of 'Jingxin Tea House' is booming like never before.
Although his tea is not a panacea, its unique effect of stabilizing the mind and dispelling impatience is also extremely rare.
Therefore, his teahouse often gathers a lot of people, and they are all powerful soul masters. Naturally, a lot of information can be obtained from these people.
Not long ago, he learned that the rebels suddenly ceased their activities, and some of the former strong men in the recent wars were missing. There were faint signs of plotting something big.
At the same time, he also received another news: near the Qimang Mountains in Xichuan Province, several adventurer teams have disappeared inexplicably recently.
The latter one can only be regarded as a 'little news', because it is not uncommon for adventurer teams to disappear, because exploring such dangerous places will naturally be dangerous. Every year, countless adventurer teams disappear while exploring dangerous places for various reasons. .
However, only Dan Teng connected the two pieces of information, and then came up with a conjecture that frightened him...
Although there was no direct evidence, once this guess came out, Dan Teng could no longer sit still. He even set off from the capital and rushed back without stopping!
As for Wu Dijian who came with him, it can be said that it was a complete accident...
