Lord of Nine Stars

In the north-central part of the soul beast buffer zone, there is a pine forest.

At this time, there was a young woman wearing a snow cloak, standing next to a huge tree.

She put one hand on the old tree bark and seemed to be talking to herself, but also seemed to be talking to someone?

The woman's voice was clear and sweet. Even though she was talking about a beheading operation, her tone was still pure, as if there was no personal emotion involved: "If Shang Jia has trouble making up his mind, maybe we should help him make this decision."

In the empty snow in front of the woman, a male voice came very suddenly: "Being unable to take away all his soldiers and being stuck in the quagmire of this war zone is the reason why Shang Jia has not returned to the snow vortex.

In the early morning, you have been hanging out in the soul beast buffer zone all year round and know how this bone burial place works.

Do not worry. Any action taken by any person or soul beast only requires a gentle push. "

"Hmm, Tianwen." Man Qingchen looked at the empty snow scene in front of him, but it was as if he could really see people, "Maybe we have too many personal emotions involved."

He Tianwen, who was invisible, did not respond.

Man Qingchen paused and said softly: "You saw Shang Jia waking up from nightmares and crying every day, and you felt compassion for her.

And I also heard about Shang Jia's story. Faced with his hesitation in making up his mind, I couldn't make a move either.

Maybe we should have helped Xu Taiping take over long ago. "

He Tianwen smiled and didn't care about the woman's misunderstanding: "Can't you make a move? If you dare to go into the Chinese army's tent, you won't be able to get out alive."

"Why should I consider coming out alive?" Man Qingchen lowered his head and smiled.

Before he finished speaking, He Tianwen interrupted the woman: "Early morning."

"Um?"

He Tian asked: "It's not worth it."

Man Qingchen: "."

He Tianwen: "Letting the army return to the snow whirlpool is only part of the mission. In the future, we will also correct the path forward for the soul beast army.

I know your attitude towards death, but before you really plan to exchange your life for something, at least think about your goals and think about whether the sacrifice is equivalent.

If you have to assassinate Shang Jia, I can do it. Why should you let your sacrifice be in vain? "

Hearing this, Man Qingchen sighed deeply, raised his head, and looked at the dark night sky with eyes as clear as water.

For some reason, such words made Man Qingchen's eyes turn red, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

He Tian asked: "I said, any creature in this hell can do anything with just a gentle push."

Man Qingchen: "Xue Ran Army is coming and will encounter Shang Jia Army soon."

He Tianwen also sighed softly: "Yes, this time, I don't know how many soldiers will be buried here."

Man Qingchen: "Shang Jia's hatred will gradually be transferred to the human army. He is already deeply mired in the quagmire. If he encounters the Snow Burning Army again, he will have another reason not to return to the vortex.

not to mention."

He Tian asked: "What?"

"Haha." Man Qingchen smiled helplessly, "Xue Ran Army will not negotiate, negotiate or cooperate with Shang Jia Army.

I have foreseen that it will definitely be a life-and-death situation. Regarding territory, you know how tough China's attitude is. "

While speaking, Man Qingchen turned his head slightly and looked behind him.

An Ice Soul Yin, wearing a large cloak made of snow, stepped over.

He Tianwen looked at Xu Taiping: "How?"

"Haha." Xu Taiping snorted coldly, looking at the empty eyes, "The soul beasts blown out by the wind and snow blinded Shang Jia's eyes. Wild soul beasts join the legion all the time, how can it be willing to leave?"

This army of soul beasts has established a firm foothold in the buffer zone.

Not only that, the legion has drawn a long line. All wild soul beasts blown out of the snow vortex will be intercepted by Shang Jia's legion if they travel north or northwest.

The lines of soldiers pulled out by Shang Jia's army are like several filters, recruiting wild soul beasts layer by layer.

Who can resist the temptation to expand the army every moment?

He Tian asked: "Or maybe your voice is not strong enough to influence the leader's decision-making."

Hearing this, Xu Taiping looked stiff: "This is the result of many factors, but you only stare at me."

He Tian asked: "Yes, I only keep an eye on you. I helped you clean up the think tank and made you the first military advisor.

If your strategy can give Shangjia's army a higher winning rate during the confrontation with other armies, maybe Shangjia will be more willing to listen to your suggestions. "

Xu Taiping looked grim, looking for the voice and looking in the direction He Tian asked: "Why does it have to be Shang Jia?"

He Tianwen raised his eyebrows slightly, with a strange smile on his face: "Do you think you have the qualifications, ability and charisma to lead the Shang Jia Legion now?"

Xu Taiping was unmoved and said calmly: "Maybe you are just pitying Shang Jia, a woman's kindness."

For a moment, there was silence.

Man Qingchen looked at Xu Taiping silently. Xu Taiping, who had been hanging around in the chaotic buffer zone all year round and struggling to stand up, had indeed grown up a lot.

His heart became colder and more determined.

For Xu Taiping, a military strategist, when battles turned into gains and losses on paper, when every living life turned into numbers comparing gains and losses.

People will always change.

Xu Taiping looked at He Tianwen's invisible position: "When I first met you, that time when Rong Taotao was present, I thought you were a person who did great things.

Mr. He, you can return to your human society to fully develop these qualities of compassion and kindness.

Here, those qualities just don’t work. "

The atmosphere was so oppressive that it could condense the air into water, and Xu Taiping didn't know if he was just pretending, or if he had really experienced it in the flames of war and was not afraid of life or death.

In short, Xu Taiping's scarlet eyes were looking quietly at the empty front, waiting for He Tianwen's answer.

After a long time, He Tianwen finally spoke, but he did not argue on this matter, but changed the subject: "Play your role and move the army closer to the Long River. When the Xue Ran Army arrives, Shang Jia will go back of."

Xu Taiping sneered: "Haha, you mean when Shang Jia is desperate?"

He Tian asked: "Why do you want him to be cornered? When the legion is besieged, you can prompt Shang Jia to lead the army back."

"Humph." Xu Taiping flicked his sleeves and turned to leave.

Looking at Xu Taiping's angrily leaving figure, He Tianwen, who was invisible, had a smile on his face that grew bigger and bigger.

He Tianwen didn't care about anyone's misunderstanding of him. When Xu Taiping said straightforwardly, "Why must it be Shang Jia?", the subtext was that Xu Taiping thought he could do it too.

The Xu Taiping at this time was completely different from the Xu Taiping when He Tianwen first met.

Ambition continues to expand with the growth of abilities.

Some people are blinded by their inflated ambitions, but some people are constantly being suppressed and corrected when their ambitions are inflated, and they continue to move forward with restraint.

He Tianwen suddenly had a feeling that his long-term cultivation of Xu Taiping was about to bear fruit.

Everything was as he said, in this snowy hell governed by cruel jungle laws, anyone could do anything with just a gentle push.

And He Tianwen asked if the person who tried to push gently was really Shang Jia?

Or is it really just Shang Jia that he wants to nudge?

"It's hard."

He Tian asked: "What?"

Man Qingchen: "Shang Jia was hurt by Ms. Xu's beating. It hurts. Let Shang Jia lead the army to approach the whirlpool. It is simply harder than climbing to the sky."

Apart from returning to the snow vortex, I can't think of any other reason for Xu Taiping to persuade Shang Jia to act like this.

Even if Shang Jia breaks through the blockade of the Russian Federation and goes north across the Xingling Mountains, she won't be willing to get close to the vortex. "

He Tianwen nodded with approval and said softly: "Let's see what Xu Taiping does."

This extremely irresponsible word, a word full of expectations, made Man Qingchen's eyes freeze!

He Tianwen is definitely not such a person!

Inadvertently, that expectant tone exposed He Tianwen's flaws.

In just a moment, Bingxue's smart Man Qingchen realized something. She frowned slightly: "Did I misunderstand you?"

He Tianwen turned to look at Man Qingchen. Working with such a woman was indeed a bit stressful.

"Haha." Man Qingchen suddenly laughed, with a hint of self-mockery in his laughter, "So Shang Jia, including this army of powerful soul beasts with strong soldiers and horses, is not important at all."

He Tianwen pursed his lips. In his invisible state, he didn't need much expression control.

Man Qingchen: "You only want Xu Taiping. You have been stuck in this for so long just because of Xu Taiping.

In the continuous flames of war, he grew up very quickly and showed the potential of being the overlord of one party. "

"No." He Tianwen patted Man Qingchen's shoulder lightly, "I want all the factors that are beneficial to our goal, including Shang Jia, the army of soul beasts, and Xu Taiping."

Man Qingchen raised his head slightly and looked at the empty person in front of him: "You are still lying to me. I thought we were partners and friends."

"Partner, friend" He Tianwen put down his hand and said casually, "Think about what to say to Taotao when we meet him in the future. He is our biggest reliance in achieving our goals. And your subordinates have made him suffer a lot. .”

"I don't have such subordinates." Man Qingchen smiled and said, "Besides, I have already met Taotao."

He Tianwen was stunned: "What?"

Man Qingchen's eyes as clear as water showed a hint of mischief: "He wanted to keep me, but I ran away very quickly."

He Tianwen looked solemn, and after a long moment, he said in a deep voice: "You shouldn't go to see him alone."

The mischief in Man Qingchen's eyes disappeared. She lowered her head slightly and brushed the wind-blown hair on her forehead with her white fingers.

After a long silence, Man Qingchen said softly: "That was on his way to see Ms. Xu.

My life is also meaningful, He Tianwen. "

He Tianwen opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but until the end, no words came out.

At the same time, fifty kilometers away from Wan'an Pass, on the bank of Long River.

The bloody flag fluttered in the wind, and a group of people slowly arrived at the bank of the Dragon River.

You know, Qingshan Army has 7 or 8 Snow Soul Flags turned on, and everyone is still bathed in the violent snowstorm!

In the past, the Snow Soul Flag, which was so powerful that it could freeze the wind and snow, could only "hug together to keep warm" now.

Not being blown away by the violent storm and snow was the best that could be achieved.

There is no doubt that as long as the Snow Soul Flag is on, it will suppress Fengxue to a certain extent.

To be honest, if there were only 1 or 2 Snow Soul Flags in the team, they would have been shattered by now.

This night is an eye-opening night for the little souls.

They are different from Rong Taotao.

For the young soul, the distance from Wan'an Pass to Long River only took 7 days.

Yes, the first time I entered Wan'an Pass and the first time I came to the Long River were only a week apart.

For Rong Taotao, it took him nearly two years to walk from Wan'an Pass to the Long River.

"Stop moving forward!" Li Meng ordered loudly on the bank of the Long River. Then he turned over and dismounted, his steps were light, and he was carried by the wind to the center of the army: "Gao team!"

"We have arrived at the Dragon River, please give us instructions."

This sentence is very interesting. Regarding the march, Gao Lingwei has delegated power to Li Meng. But Li Meng came to ask for instructions at this time. The meaning was most likely to ask Gao Lingwei, do you want to go forward by yourself or the whole army?

Gao Lingwei turned to look at Rong Taotao, but Rong Taotao, who was crouching on the trampling snow rhinoceros with ice exploding under his feet, smiled and said, "What? The number one soul outside the pass is approaching, why don't we go and see it together?"

Seeing Rong Taotao in such an excited state, Gao Lingwei's face hidden behind the mask also showed a slight smile.

When he first came here, Rong Taotao's inner emotions were extremely complicated, which were reflected in every aspect of him, including heaviness, uneasiness, and expectation.

At this time, Rong Taotao was so high-spirited and high-spirited.

She opened her mouth and ordered: "Advance the whole army!"

"Yes!" Li Meng said, not even stepping on the ice flowers under his feet, and walked back with a strong body covered in heavy armor, striding like lightning.

Of course, there are many factors that help the Snow Soul Banner, but everyone knows that even without the Snow Soul Banner, Li Meng can brave the wind and snow and stride forward like a meteor. After all, his strength lies here.

The little souls are really enjoying a blessing. The snowy night beneath them can't frighten the elite level. Under normal circumstances, they really have to put away their natal soul beasts and use the Ice Path to move forward.

You know, when Rong Taotao came here for the first time, Yang Chunxi was the only one in the team who owned the Snow Soul Flag, and everyone was very self-aware and asked Yang Chunxi to put the flag away early to adapt to the wind and snow in advance.

The distance was less than a hundred meters, and as Long Xiang's Eighteen Cavalry moved forward, it went extremely smoothly.

50 meters, 40 meters, 30 meters.

Arriving at the maximum sensing range of the Snow Controlling Realm, Long Xiang's Eighteen Cavalry slowly stopped.

"Twenty meters further!" Rong Taotao said loudly, carefully turning over and getting off the snow rhinoceros.

"Crack!"

"Crack!" Ice flowers exploded under his feet, and Rong Taotao braved the wind and snow and moved forward step by step.

In the picture provided by Edelweiss Cat, the mother's figure is exactly the same as when he left before, and even her feet did not move at all.

The good thing is that after turning around last time, this time, his mother is facing him.

"Mother."

As he approached step by step, Rong Taotao reached out his hand and tried his best to reach forward.

In the dark blizzard night, a biting cold palm firmly grasped Rong Taotao's palm.

And Rong Taotao's steps were finally no longer difficult, and she was easily dragged to her eyes.

Since the edelweiss cat's little head was at the collar of Rong Taotao's clothes, the image in Rong Taotao's eyes was looking up at his mother.

But that didn't stop him from seeing the faint smile on his mother's face.

"I'm going on an expedition! As the Qingshan Army, I'm going to clean up the soul beast buffer zone!" Rong Taotao said.

Xu Fenghua just held Rong Taotao's arm firmly with one hand to help him stabilize his body. The other hand slowly fell on the natural curls of Rong Taotao's head.

"This land belongs to us. Not only do we need to clean up the soul beast buffer zone, we also need to build three more circular walls, just under this snow vortex."

Xu Fenghua remained silent and slowly closed his eyes.

She listened quietly to the child's proud words, lowered her hand, and gently traced the outline of the child's face with her fingers, feeling the joy between his brows.

"Bless us, Master Soul General?"

Hearing this, Xu Fenghua opened a pair of phoenix eyes. At this moment, the smile on her face finally became thicker. She put one hand around Rong Taotao's neck and pulled him into her arms.

The gentle words seemed to melt the endless frost and snow: "Bless you, Taotao."

"Well." Rong Taotao buried his face on her shoulder and said in a muffled voice, "So... kiss?"

Xu Fenghua looked startled, this child.

"Haha." Xu Fenghua smiled and shook her head. Even with so many people watching, she still put one hand on Rong Taotao's head and lowered it in front of her face.

Then, she lowered her head slightly and lightly touched the natural curls soaked in frost and snow.

"You know, one day, I will take you home." Rong Taotao lowered his head and said.

"Yes, I know." Xu Fenghua gently took care of the child's hair and said softly, "I'm right here, waiting for you here. I'm not going anywhere."

"Ha" Rong Taotao took a deep breath and took a step back. The sound of crackling ice crystals sounded one after another.

That's enough.

If this continues, I can't help but stay here with her.

"Qingshan Army!" Rong Taotao was really passionate and excited, and his behavior was indeed different from the past.

In Xu Fenghua's perception, the large group of people behind her son tensed up, and she seemed to realize something faintly.

"Salute!" Rong Taotao's words were sonorous and powerful, with unprecedented confidence.

The next moment, except for Teacher Songhun, who was quietly feeling it, everyone else raised their palms.

Xu Fenghua looked at Rong Taotao with a smile, feeling the Chinese army behind him. This heart that had been soaked in frost and snow for more than ten years was melted by Rong Taotao again and again.

Slowly, she also raised her palms. Although her feet could not stand at attention, the movements of her hands were extremely standard.

"Mom, I'm leaving."

"Go ahead."

"wait me back."

"I'll wait for you to come back."

Five thousand words, sorry for being late, I revised it several times. Hope you all like it. Asking for a monthly ticket!
