Cultivation in the Family: Everyone is a villain

In Wanyang County, there are not many people on the streets anymore, especially the closer to the west city, the more deserted it becomes.

At the entrance of a rice noodle shop not far from Xicheng, more than ten people were gathering together. They all carried bags of food in their hands. They had obviously finished their shopping and were chatting together.

Although they were just chatting, it was still clear that the faces of both the shopkeeper and the customers looked a little gloomy, and they would turn their heads to look in the direction of the west city gate from time to time, and the worry on their faces could not be concealed at all.

"The sound seems to have stopped. Can you hold on?"

"I don't know. It's the third day, and the defenders in the city should have finished fighting!"

"I heard yesterday that Yongzhou sent more than 100,000 demon sect troops this time. With more than 100,000 troops, Wanyang County will definitely not be able to defend it over time."

"Then what should we do? We have to find a way to escape!"

"Run, where are you running from? There is fighting at the west gate, the east gate, the south gate, and the north gate. They are all blocked by the Yongzhou army. I heard that the people from the Sword Division fought hard this morning to send two cavalry out to report the news. We are the only ones.

If you try to escape from there, you will definitely die."

"Then we can't just wait inside and wait for them to break through the city. I've heard people say that the Demon Cult's army is all about eating people and not spitting out their bones. If they really attack us, we'll be in dire straits!"

…………

More than a dozen people, including the shopkeeper, almost all revealed their fear of the Yongzhou Demonic Army, as if those attacking the city at this moment were not humans like them, but a group of demons. Once this group of demons invaded the city

, there will definitely be corpses strewn everywhere and blood flowing like rivers.

Only a young man and a boy standing on the periphery looked at each other with strange expressions when they heard these words.

The young man was about in his early twenties, with a thin build, and a flash of light in his eyes from time to time. He obviously sneered at what everyone said, but he did not take the initiative to explain anything.

The young man looked about sixteen or seventeen years old, with thin lips and a sharp face, exuding a perseverance that was not what he should have at this age. It was different from the young man's eyes that often moved around. The young man's eyes were always focused on those who spoke.

On the lips, his eyes are just casual, and it's not easy to spot if you don't look carefully.

"Brother Su, is the Yongzhou army really so cruel?"

Wan Xiaolou pondered for a while, and couldn't help but ask Su Li in a low voice. Like these people who were discussing, he had lived in Xuzhou since he was a child. Before meeting his master Hou Yuxiao, he had never been in contact with people in Yongzhou.

I was also afraid of the people of Yongzhou under the influence of my ears and eyes. Although this idea has changed after I became a disciple of Hou Yuxiao, my general feeling remained the same.

Su Li did not answer immediately, and his expression became a little complicated. After thinking for a long time, he replied: "Before I came to Xuzhou, my impression of Xuzhou was basically the same as these people's impression of Yongzhou."

In fact, Su Li didn't lie!

He grew up in Zhaoyang County. In his early days, he had no idea about the world at all, and he had no idea at all about the so-called good and evil ways. But as he grew up, especially after he started practicing martial arts.

, some perceptions began to change.

For example, he knew the divisions between the seven states of the righteous way and the six states of the evil way. He knew that Zhaoyang was located on the eastern border of Yongzhou, and that the other end of the boundary monument was Xuzhou.

Four hundred years ago, before the Jin Capital Covenant was signed, Xuzhou massacred the people of Yongzhou, including Su Lide's father who told him when he was still alive that his ancestors of the Su family were killed by Xuzhou people...

On July 16th, Su Li brought thirty people from the Geng tribe to Wanyang County. He has been here for almost twenty days. It is said that he is familiar with Wanyang County. But speaking honestly, he is still familiar with Wanyang County.

He was still hostile, so during these days in Wanyang County, he only stayed with Wan Xiaolou and others, and rarely communicated with other people.

The root cause, the biggest reason, is naturally caused by the influence he has had since he was a child growing up in Zhaoyang, as well as the grievances and grievances between his ancestors.

Su Li's expression was complicated because, after hearing the discussion of the people in front of him, he realized that the people in Wanyang County had similar perceptions of Yongzhou people as he did.

More importantly, he grew up in Zhaoyang, and knew that there were many people in Zhaoyang who were more hostile to Xuzhou than he was. He had a glimpse of the situation. Just next door to Xuzhou, a small Zhaoyang County was still like this.

Then people in other places in Yongzhou are more hostile to Xuzhou...

"That means that these people's worries are likely to come true. After the Yongzhou army invades, will they really massacre?"

Hearing Wan Xiaolou's inquiry, Su Li nodded with a heavy expression. Seeing the sad look on his face, he thought he was scared and hurriedly comforted him: "Don't be afraid. The 40,000 defenders of Wanyang County returned in defeat. Now,

The army of the Holy Religion is attacking the city again, which proves that the Holy Religion must have won in Tongling, and I, the Hou family, should be fine. The head of the family knows we are here, and he will come to find us!"

Wan Xiaolou's face relaxed a little, and he turned to look at the lonely streets in the city. His eyes became slightly dark, and he thought to himself: "Master, will you follow the Yongzhou army to fight here?"

The master has only been away from Wanyang County for two months. Although he has received Su Li's guidance and his martial arts attainments have improved by leaps and bounds, his cultivation level is still only at the fifth level. In this battle, he can only play the role of an ordinary soldier.

Therefore, it is normal to feel worried.

After all, it was his first time to witness a battle of this level. Although he felt a little uneasy, he was more excited.

He had communicated a lot with Su Li during this period and knew that the Hou family was an influential force that could control a county. It was on the same level as the Shenyin Sect he had stayed in when he was a child. Currently, Yongzhou was the attacker. If they could defeat Wanyang County in one fell swoop,

, then Yongzhou will have the final say here. If the Hou family where the master is located also participates in it, then his status in Wanyang County will definitely not be low in the future. As the tide rises, all boats will rise, and the status of the master will increase, so will the status of his disciple.

It will remain intact.

Of course, this is just the benefit of being invisible. More importantly, he just learned that Yunye County was captured by the Yongzhou army the day before yesterday. If nothing unexpected happened, the Shenyin Sect would be driven out and wiped out by the Yongzhou army. Unfortunately, the army was defeated from Tongling.

He arrived just in time to save the disciples of the Shenyin Sect, who were staying in the city at the moment.

Wan Xiaolou's eyes flashed with a hint of sinisterness. He, Wan Xiaojin and the other five people were all caught in the Shenyin Sect as human beings since they were young. They suffered inhuman torture and even suffered deafness.

It can be said that he is filled with hatred. The people from the Shenyin Sect are currently staying in the city, which undoubtedly allows him to see a great opportunity for revenge.

"Brother Su who was casually dispatched by Master has the cultivation level of Gang Qi Realm and more than thirty seventh-level warriors. The Hou family must be stronger than the Shenyin Sect. If the Yongzhou army can attack the city, I will definitely be able to

Use Master’s help to drive out all the disciples of the Shenyin Sect!”

Wan Xiaolou groaned softly in his heart, and his eyes ignited with flames of hatred.

Su Li saw Wan Xiaolou's face and immediately knew what he was thinking. During this period, he also learned a lot about Wan Xiaolou's five brothers and sisters, and knew about his hatred for the Shenyin Sect. He had grown up in Zhaoyang

Growing up, I experienced ups and downs no less than Wan Xiaolou. I know that this kind of hatred is difficult to eliminate, so I naturally don't offer any comfort.

"Let's go back first. We don't know how the war in the city will change yet. It's best not to stay outside casually. It will be bad if you commit something."

"good!"

The two were about to leave when suddenly a soldier on a horse came from the west city, running wildly and shouting:

"The Yongzhou army invaded the territory. Lu Jianshi activated the sword formation to protect the city. He has retreated from the enemy. The battle at Ximen is tense. We are now forcibly recruiting warriors with a fifth level or above in the city to defend the city. Report to Ximen at the latest an hour. Dare there be anyone?

Those who fail to arrive will be shot without mercy!"

The soldier's shouting didn't stop at all. He kept shouting all the way until the voice weakened. Su Li and Wan Xiaolou looked at each other, and they both saw a hint of gloom in each other's eyes.

"Compulsory recruitment, Brother Su, shouldn't we go too?"

Su Li nodded with a heavy face and said: "There are road guides during the war. The Sword Master knows exactly how many people are in the city. Anyone who dares to miss it will be killed without mercy. This means that in an hour, the city will begin."

You must go for interrogation, otherwise you will die if you are caught!"

After saying that, Su Li and Wan Xiaolou quickly headed towards the small courtyard where they lived, preparing to notify the rest of the Geng Department and rush to the west gate to report.

………………

Inside the west gate, there is an ordinary-looking residence, with more than ten people gathered inside.

The person sitting at the head of the table was a handsome middle-aged man in white clothes with a face like a crown jewel. More than ten members of the Ten Thousand Swords Saint Sect with a calm and powerful aura were sitting on both sides of him. There were two people standing in the middle, facing each other.

The middle-aged man in white looked a little worried.

No one spoke. Not only the two people standing there looked worried, but the faces of the rest of the people also looked ugly. The silence made the atmosphere in the room a bit chilly.

In the whole room, the middle-aged man in white who was sitting at the top of the table still looked as usual. After waiting for more than ten breaths, he spoke to the standing man.

"Lu Guanqing, the city wall has been occupied by them?"

"Reporting to Swordhead, there were more than 50,000 demonic sect troops attacking the city. It was too many. Fortunately, Commander Gan and his brothers cooperated to lure the enemy deeper. I then used the Brass Sword Formation to barely block them on the city wall.

, don’t dare to attack the city!”

After escaping from death in Tongling, Lu Guanqing was still very panicked. Huangfu Xing's palm had caused quite a psychological shadow on him. He originally thought that when he came back, he could take credit from Gu Tianyun. After all, he had ordered him to lead the army to attack this time.

It was Gu Tianyun who was from Tongling, but he didn't expect that after returning to Wanyang County, what he wanted to do was not to claim credit, but to defend the city.

He never imagined that an ordinary test would turn into a two-week war. When Huangfuxing tore up the covenant, he was indeed panicked for a while, but soon he felt that it was just Huangfuxing.

It's a bluff, after all, the current situation of the Rakshasa Holy Sect being beleaguered on all sides is well known to the world.

How is it possible to go to war with Xuzhou despite such great pressure?

But when he returned to Wanyang County with the 10,000-strong army, especially after meeting the fleeing people in Yunye County, he realized that Yongzhou's 170,000-strong army had really come over, and he felt completely stupid.

Already...

In the battle of Tongling, plus Huangfu Xing's last palm, Wanyang County's 40,000 silver-armored troops were left with only a little over 10,000. In addition, he was a sword-wielding master of the third level of the master, and these 10,000 silver-armored troops were left.

The commander-in-chief, Gan Wu, who was at the peak of his Baodan stage, wanted to stop the 170,000 Yongzhou army led by Peng Yuhu, the Yin Yu-faced God of Xingnan Prefecture himself, which was nothing more than a dream.

Fortunately, fortunately, Nishizhao Sword Head is still there...

As the sword wielder of the Wanjian Holy Sect, once Wanyang County is lost, according to the laws of the Holy Sect, he cannot escape death, so at this moment, he almost pinned all his hopes on Gu Tianyun in front of him.

He pointed out that he could help him defend Wanyang County.

Lu Guanqing's eyes were filled with hope as he looked around at the twelve people standing on the left and right sides of the room. He knew all the Saint Sect masters that Gu Tianyun had brought here. Almost all of them were Grandmaster realm masters with similar strength to him. He wanted to keep his current position.

Wanyang County relies on Gu Tianyun and these people.

While he was deep in thought, Gu Tianyun also spoke.

"Just block them on the city wall. How many defenders are left?"

This time the person who answered Gu Tianyun was not Lu Guanqing, but Gan Wu, the commander of the Silver Armored Army standing next to him. He was tall and burly, with a rough face. The armor he wore was still stained with blood. It was obviously from the fierce battle on the city wall just now.

Mark of.

"According to the sword leader, there are only 3,000 defenders left out of 10,000. If Yongzhou charges again, even if there is a sword formation, it will be difficult for us to stop it. Fortunately, just now Lu Jianshi has sent people to force five people to attack the city.

If warriors above the level join the army, as long as I can recruit another five thousand men, my subordinates will have the confidence to continue to block the Yongzhou army!"

Gu Tianyun nodded upon hearing this, and then turned his gaze to Lu Guanqing.

"The population of Wanyang County is about 1.9 million, of which there are more than 40,000 warriors, including more than 10,000 warriors who have attained the fifth level or above. Tong Wudi has already gathered more than 5,000 people from the Tianding Sect and will be here soon. In addition,

Although this recruitment is mandatory, it does not rule out that some people will disobey the order. I predict that with the addition of Tianding Sect’s troops, the number will eventually be increased to more than 9,000 people.”

Hearing this number, Gan Wu looked shocked, cupped his fists and said: "If we can recruit another nine thousand people to come in, and use Lu Jianshi's brass sword array as a supplement, I can guarantee that the Yongzhou army will never break through half of the city wall.

Step, just..."

Gan Wu hesitated for a moment and said: "For some reason, the Yongzhou army only focuses on the west gate. If they divide their forces and attack the city from four directions together, we will be easily defeated if we are short of manpower..."

Hearing Gan Wu's words, Gu Tianyun showed a look of confidence on his face and said: "Don't worry, with this sword head here, they will die if they divide their troops!"

Gu Tianyun's words immediately woke up Lu Guanqing and Gan Wu. They suddenly recalled that Gu Tianyun was in front of them, but they were Qianyang realm martial arts masters, and a touch of excitement suddenly appeared on their faces.

A hundred thousand-level army has a suppressive effect on the martial arts masters of the Yin Yang Holy Realm. This is the reason why the Yongzhou army dares to attack the city even though they know that Gu Tianyun is in the city. Once they divide their troops and Gu Tianyun takes action at the right time, what will happen to the Yongzhou army? It's a catastrophe...

"The two soldiers who sent the message will arrive in Longxiang County at the latest tomorrow. There are not many defenders in Longxiang County. They will definitely notify the city. The reinforcements from Guangling Mansion will arrive at full speed. It will take at least three days. Lu Guanqing, Gan Wu, as long as you can hold on for these three days, when I return to Xudu, I will definitely ask for merit for you two in front of the sect master."

"Thank you Jianshou, I will defend Wanyang County to the death!"

After hearing the two people's answers, Gu Tianyun showed a trace of satisfaction on his face. He was about to speak when he suddenly looked up in the direction of the west city gate with a dignified look on his face.

"Zhan Taiqing has arrived!"
