Immortal Cultivating Dynasty

Yang Xuan was confused, but he still received the letter from Zhou Fengyuan. He took out the letter and scanned it. His expression changed dramatically. He raised his head and looked at Zhou Fengyuan in disbelief. His voice was trembling as he asked, "This... Is what you said true?"    

Zhou Fengyuan nodded and said to Yang Xuan." En, two days ago, they were stationed outside the Profound Gate Pass. The Barbarian Soldier on the Fallen Leaf Plains suddenly launched a surprise attack on our troops. You have to know, normally at this time, the soldiers of the Barbarian Clan are in a state of truce. After all, even if it is the Barbarian Clan, which has many different customs from us, we are prepared to live through the winter. We will also have to spend the New Year with them. However, on this New Year's Day, they have unexpectedly made a move against Profound Gate Pass."    

Zhou Fengyuan paused for a moment and continued," Because of the sudden arrival of the war, the people of Profound Gate Pass did not make much preparations and hastily accepted the battle. It was also because of this that the defending troops of Profound Gate Pass suffered heavy casualties in this battle."    

"But, the Barbarian Soldier outside Profound Gate Pass, before I came back... Didn't prime minister Xu and I each destroy one of the main forces? Even in the Carduus Army, the Greedy Wolf Army and the Tiger Army didn't manage to react in time. However, when they realized that something was wrong, they should have the ability to reorganize themselves and fight back! Even if it's not enough, what about the giant army?"    

" The giant army has already returned to their tribe's territory, because the giant's body is too big. A lot of energy is required, too. Every winter, they return to their territory to hibernate. Besides that, Barbarian Army seems to have made up their mind this time. They actually sent out a total of 200,000 troops to attack Profound Gate Pass. When my stupid brother requested reinforcements from the rear after suffering heavy casualties, only then did I realize that the channel leading to the city at the back had already been destroyed. Even if the message was sent back, vehicles transporting grain and supplies can't go over. "    

"This..."    

Yang Xuan was shocked, but he quickly reacted. He frowned. Even if the channel was destroyed, the official road could still be passed. Even if it wasn't enough, he could still find a small path. However, the prerequisite for this matter was to change the channel to transport grain and armaments. According to the laws of the Great Wei, they had to report this to the Imperial Court. Otherwise, the person in charge of this matter... However, the head had to be chopped off. But at that time, the city was in chaos because a few princes were busy forming cliques. It was very difficult for the officials in the capital to do anything. Following that was the turmoil of the spectral cultivators, which made the capital even more chaotic.    

The timing of the Barbarian Clan's attack was a little too accurate. In addition, the Barbarian Clan had mobilized 200,000 soldiers to the border. It was hard to believe that it was purely a coincidence.    

Seeing the expression on Yang Xuan's face, Zhou Fengyuan nodded his head. He said to Yang Xuan, "You also feel that something is not right about this matter, don't you? In fact, my younger brother had told me about it in the Sound Transmitting Talisman. When they were retreating... Halfway there, they caught a ghost messenger who kept in contact with the Barbarian Clan. "    

Yang Xuan felt as if he had been struck by lightning. His eyes were wide open. After a while, he said, "As expected."    

Immediately after that, Yang Xuan hurriedly asked, "How's the war in Profound Gate Pass going?"    

"The situation isn't looking good. This morning, I just contacted my brother. They have arrived at a place called Falling Blade Cliff."    

"What?"    

After hearing the name of Falling Blade Cliff, Yang Xuan's expression changed when he heard the news from Zhou Fengyuan. It was the biggest change. The Falling Blade Cliff was a famous place, and the terrain there was just like the One-Line Sky. If one wanted to find a place that was different from the One-Line-Sky, the distance between the two cliffs of the Falling Blade Cliff would be much wider. Furthermore, there was a flat rock standing on both sides of the cliff, just like a guillotine that was about to fall.    

Furthermore, if Yang Xuan remembered correctly, the Falling Blade Cliff was less than three hundred miles away from the Lo Capital. Although the distance of 300 miles didn't seem to be short, one must know that... There was a distance of more than one thousand eight hundred miles between the Profound Gate Pass and the Lo Capital. In other words, the distance between the Profound Gate Pass and the Falling Blade Cliff was one thousand five hundred miles. In these two to three days, it had fallen into the hands of the Barbarian Clan.    

Thinking of this, Yang Xuan hastily said to Zhou Fengyuan, "Martial Uncle, the current situation is very dangerous. If I delay any longer... Perhaps even the Lo Capital will fall into the hands of Barbarian Clan. At that time, the Great Wei will be in danger. If I'm not wrong, behind this incident... It must be a ghost cultivator."    

Zhou Fengyuan sighed and said to Yang Xuan, "I know it's a ghost cultivator, but the barbarians have already arrived here. We need to send reinforcements. As a matter of fact, even if you don't come to me now, I will send reinforcements after the morning court. I will come and find you. After knowing about this matter, I thought about it for a long time. The army closest to my stupid brother is the City Guard of the Lo Capital. Furthermore, the army there was originally set up as a reserve army for the Profound Gate Pass. However, that place is your territory now, so I need to ask for your opinion. "    

Zhou Fengyuan said, then suddenly grabbed Yang Xuan's shoulders and looked at Yang Xuan with a serious expression. He said, "Besides that, your performance in Profound Gate Pass was very good. Although Ning Ziwei has returned to Profound Gate Pass to regain control of Carduus Army, all the soldiers of Carduus Army miss you very much. Adding the 150,000 soldiers of Lo Capital, I believe that you will be here. The chances of victory in this battle will be much higher."    

Yang Xuan nodded and said to Zhou Fengyuan, "I will leave this man called Guan Bing with you for now. He was a good seedling and had a big plan in his heart. If he is used well, he will be able to provide a lot of help to our Little Emperor."    

Zhou Fengyuan nodded and gave Yang Xuan a firm look. "You still don't trust me when I do things? Although my State Hall doesn't dare to say that we have the ability to create talents, a talented man has come to my place. I will definitely be able to use all of his abilities. "    

Yang Xuan nodded his head in satisfaction and said to Zhou Fengyuan, "That's good. After Wai Xuan acknowledged me as his master... I have been worrying whether I can assist him or not. But now, it seems that I have found a good helper for him. There is no time to lose. I will now go to His Majesty and request for orders to prepare for the expedition to the north. Return the Barbarian Army to the Profound Gate Pass."    

Yang Xuan said and did not stay any longer. He turned around and walked outside.
