Chapter 1806: Chapter 577: Gold News, Shocking Tidings and Panic, Corpse Demon Army_2
Xia Hong turned around and looked back at the Moao River and the South Slope map, his gaze finally resting on East River City in Beishuo Town, his eyes slightly narrowing.
With Chen Cang’s hundred thousand troops, it could be considered the only threat Great Xia currently faces. However, Xia Hong is not in a rush. The ceasefire between Great Xia and Cai Qiu shouldn’t be kept secret for long. Chen Cang might already be aware of it; it all depends on how Chu Longteng decides!
The likelihood of fighting on both fronts is not high. Although Chen Cang is strong, he wouldn’t be reckless to that extent. And the threat posed by Great Xia is obviously less significant than that of Cai Qiu. As long as Chu Longteng isn’t muddle-headed, he should know how to choose.
“East River City, including the northern Danxue Peak, must be reclaimed, and even the Jiuqu Blood Corridor behind Danxue Peak must be taken. Only by holding these two major gateways in the north can Great Xia develop without fearing the Feudal Town threat!”
The situation in Evergreen Valley has already been settled, and Xia Hong has decided to let Yuwen Dao lead the forces to guard Guangning Mountain. He doesn’t need to worry about the deployment specifics; once the Bone-Eroding Path is surveyed to ensure there are no issues, he should return to the Southern Slope Territory to start dealing with Chen Cang’s hundred thousand troops.
“Let him in!”
While Xia Hong was contemplating, he suddenly noticed footsteps outside the tent. Without waiting for the person outside to report, he directly invited them in.
“Subordinate greets the Lord!”
The visitor was Qiu Peng. As soon as he finished giving instructions to Luo Cheng, he immediately instructed Tie Xinchuan to call for Qiu Peng.
“I’ve listed out the contents of this Yellow Mustard Bag. You need to take a trip to deliver it back to Xia City and personally hand it over to Mu Dong and Cheng Feng.”
“Subordinate obeys!”
Qiu Peng responded without hesitation, bowing his hand.
Of course, he was still a bit puzzled. Currently, he was busy receiving the territories of Evergreen Valley and inventorying various resources within the territory. Why he had to personally make a round trip to deliver something back to Xia City,
however, as he took the inventory sheet from Xia Hong and saw the array of precious materials inside the Yellow Mustard Bag, his expression immediately became unsettled, his pupils contracting multiple times. He hurriedly took the Yellow Mustard Bag, bound it securely, and directly strapped it onto himself.
“There’s no time to waste, I’ll take some people back immediately!”
“Alright, no need to be so anxious. It’s just this small journey, returning to Xia City from East Ridge is quite fast. All right, all right, you go ahead…”
Xia Hong chuckled helplessly, waved his hand, and directly indicated for him to leave.
Qiu Peng didn’t delay either. After bowing to bid farewell, he turned and left.
With Qiu Peng taking the materials back, Xia Hong also needed to start his own work. Finally, after calling Tie Xinchuan outside into the tent for a discussion, he also decided to leave the Guangning Mountain Camp.
The Dragon Forbidden Captain is a military force directly under Xia Palace, so it’s naturally impossible for them to stay at Guangning Mountain permanently. Li Xuanling left with Xia Yuyao and Xia Yusheng, and as the Lord, he now also needed to leave, and the Dragon Forbidden Captain was to return to Xia City.
After Tie Xinchuan left, Xia Hong directly soared into the sky towards the Bone-Eroding Path.
However, just after flying a little way, he stopped, then looked up at the southern sky, his expression slightly tensed.
In the southern sky, a figure appeared somewhat panicked, flying towards him, and Xia Hong instantly recognized it was Hou Tong.
“Lord, Lord, there’s bad news…”
“What’s the matter, speak slowly!”
“Madam… Madam and the two heirs have been abducted by a mysterious woman. That woman calls herself Li Longyu. She said she won’t harm Madam and the two heirs and only wants to discuss important matters with the Lord. She will meet the Lord at Chilong Lake.”
Upon hearing the shocking news, Xia Hong’s expression changed dramatically. He almost instinctively charged southward, flying over a hundred meters before turning back to Hou Tong to transmit his voice: “Follow me and explain the situation!”
Hou Tong’s face was still full of panic. Upon hearing this, he immediately followed Xia Hong, recounting his encounter verbatim.
According to Hou Tong, he encountered three mysterious women at the southern end of Bone-Eroding Path. The woman introduced herself as Li Longyu, inquired about the year, and first coerced Hou Tong to follow them. Then, midway, she inexplicably intercepted Li Xuanling and her sons. The whole time, she didn’t attack, only slightly revealed her aura to take Li Xuanling away, and finally released Hou Tong to return as a messenger, notifying him to go to Chilong Lake.
Li Longyu, three mysterious women of unknown origin?
The aura of Deceitful Object is extremely strong on them, yet not quite like Deceitful Monster?
How did they know Li Xuanling and her sons would return from Bone-Eroding Path tonight?
The two maids have Tribulation Body Realm strength, their aura even surpassing Cai Qianshan?
The two maids referred to the blue-clad maiden as Princess?
Princess, is this the title in the State?
People from the State, who know him? Also have important matters for him to discuss?
……
Although Xia Hong grew more confused, and during Hou Tong’s recounting, he scrutinized him harshly several times, from his description, it seemed likely that the three women who abducted his wife and children had strength above Cai Qianshan. His emotions immediately fell into turmoil, without further inquiry, simply accelerating through Bone-Eroding Path, charging towards the Southern Slope Territory.
……..
“Roar!”
At the same time Xia Hong crossed Bone-Eroding Path, flying towards the Southern Slope Territory.
From the western rock wall of the mid-section of Bone-Eroding Path, deep within an unknown mountain cave, a terrifyingly chilling roar suddenly echoed.
Bang…..
The roar had not yet dissipated when a loud collision resounded. A blue-clad maiden continuously paced in the mid-section area of the cave, occasionally looking deeper within, her face full of worry.
“The Commandery Princess is too reckless, no, this won’t do. What if something happens? I must go in and take a look. Even dying alongside the Commandery Princess is better than her facing trouble alone!”
