Chapter 438 Not a single good thing
As Zhong Lingxin lay down, she grasped General Hu's hand: "General, you must hurry. Whether the Immortal King can escape and turn the tide depends entirely on you generals."
General Hu led a group of generals who remained behind to the central command tent to discuss the dispatch of troops.
To be on the safe side, General Ming sent someone to invite the diviner who had stayed behind.
The fortune teller holds copper coins to cast a divination.
The divination indicates that although the Mountain and Sea Immortal King is currently in danger, his life is not in danger.
This information closely matched the news brought back by Ruan Ciren.
The two sons of the Immortal Emperor of Mountains and Seas received news that their father's advisor had returned injured and was seeking help, and they hurriedly returned to Fengxiang City.
The two inquired about some things from Zhong Lingxin and then hurriedly entered the central military tent.
Zhong Lingxin smiled.
With these two brothers returning, the Mountain and Sea Immortal King's rear guard must be sent to the Middle Realm.
The next step is to see which Immortal King the Southern Immortal Emperor will send to rescue the Mountain and Sea Immortal King.
She guessed it must be Yuwen Xianwang.
Yuwen Immortal King and Shanhai Immortal King were extremely at odds.
The Southern Immortal Emperor probably wants to take advantage of this opportunity to support Yuwen Immortal King in seizing power from the Mountain and Sea Immortal King.
Ha ha.
Go ahead and rob it.
Nothing good!
She remembered how the Yuwen family forced her master and Aunt Yu to flee to the Middle Realm.
Just as Zhong Lingxin had predicted, the Southern Immortal Emperor dispatched Immortal King Yuwen to rescue Immortal King Shanhai half a month later.
In Fengxiang City, Zhong Lingxin, still recovering from her injuries, watched as General Hu set off with ten thousand airships carrying a million immortal soldiers to the Middle Realm.
She earnestly instructed General Hu: "General, the Void Beasts in the Void are extremely powerful and difficult to deal with. You must not get too entangled with them."
The Immortal King originally just wanted to appease the Void Beasts to improve the food for his immortal soldiers and replenish their immortal energy, which is why the Void Beasts kept pestering him.
"General, you must reach the Middle Realm as soon as possible; rescuing the Celestial King is the most important task."
Because Ruan Ciren had risked his life and suffered a significant loss of cultivation to rush back to the Southern Realm for help, the Left Guards treated Zhong Lingxin, who was impersonating Ruan Ciren, with great respect. The two sons of the Mountain and Sea Immortal Emperor showed him even more respect, treating him with the courtesy due to a junior.
General Hu bowed and thanked Ruan Ciren for his instructions, indicating that he would not pursue the matter further.
Zhong Lingxin smiled and nodded.
Haha, so you think you can just stop bothering me?
The Void Beasts are waiting for you in the void!
The Left Guard Army has now set off.
She should pretend to be in seclusion to heal her wounds and go to visit Yuwen Xianwang's military camp.
And then there's Yuwen Lie, the culprit who caused Master and Aunt Yu to be hunted down and forced to flee. He should pay the price.
Although her master and Aunt Yu have kept quiet about their escape all these years, she knows that they almost died back then.
Master Amitabha Buddha himself divined this, and it was explained very clearly.
Soon, Zhong Lingxin declared that she had nothing to do for the time being and that she needed to find a place to retreat and heal her wounds.
The immortal soldiers left behind by the Left Guard respectfully escorted Zhong Lingxin out of Fengxiang City, watching her depart in a small flying boat.
Yuwen Xianwang, Yuwen Fangda, was the commander of the Left Guard Army many years ago.
Later, he was defeated by the Immortal King of Mountains and Seas and lost his command of the Left Guard Army.
His status in the Southern Realm plummeted, and he was constantly overshadowed by the Mountain and Sea Immortal King.
He had always wanted to regain his position as commander of the Left Guard Army, but he never succeeded.
Now, an unprecedented opportunity has presented itself, and he's determined not to let it slip by.
Yuwen Fangyuan convened a meeting of his celestial officials to discuss the advance into the Middle Realm.
The entire Yuwen Fangyuan Immortal King's Mansion was filled with excitement.
Not all Immortal Kings are the same.
Over the years, the Mountain and Sea Immortal King has held the greatest military power in the Southern Realm, and has everything he could want.
Yuwen Immortal King, on the other hand, could only retreat to his territory and live the life of a carefree immortal king. He had to cheerfully tell people that he was in seclusion studying immortal techniques and had no time to manage worldly affairs.
Haha, what a great excuse for not having time to manage mundane affairs!
Those who understand know that managing mundane affairs is the key to obtaining countless rare and precious resources, and to achieving twice the result with half the effort.
Yuwen Fangyuan's eldest son, Yuwen Qingcheng, was a very composed immortal lord.
He glanced at the noisy crowd of celestial officials in the hall, took a sip of tea, and remained silent.
After Yuwen Fangyuan and the others had finished their excitement, they asked Yuwen Qingcheng, "Qingcheng, what are your thoughts?"
Yuwen Fangyuan smiled and said, "Father, the Immortal Emperor has ordered you to lead troops to rescue him. This is an affirmation of your authority. As a subject, you should repay the emperor's kindness by obeying his orders."
We must save the Immortal King of Mountains and Seas, and we must do everything in our power to do so!
However, Father, your troops are currently scattered and stationed in various places. In an urgent moment, the handover of defenses in each place must be made clear.
We can't just hastily lead our troops away, leaving behind an undefended immortal city.
That would cause trouble.
The Celestial Emperor would not want to see trouble in Father's territory, as that would affect Father's annual tribute.
Therefore, Father, you must recruit a batch of new soldiers and give them some training.
Furthermore, Father, as you lead the army to rescue the Immortal King of Mountains and Seas, you must prepare the army and gather provisions. The weapons and armor of all the generals and soldiers should be repaired or replaced as needed.
There are also spaceships.
We don't have enough spaceships, and most of them are only fourth or fifth grade, so we're afraid we won't be able to cross the void and reach the middle realm.
Therefore, we also need to forge and improve the existing spacecraft.
All of this takes time.
Yuwen Immortal King nodded and smiled, "The Immortal Emperor has also considered what you said. A group of weapon refiners are on their way, and they have also brought the Immortal Emperor's time array plate."
Refining spaceships and repairing and replacing weapons and armor are no problem.
Even alchemy, talisman drawing, and array plate making can be completed within the time array.
The only tasks are recruiting new soldiers and preparing military provisions, which will take some time.
The immortal grains from Jade Wave Lake have been purchased by the Mountain and Sea Immortal King for years. Because I thought that the Mountain and Sea were going to conquer the Middle Realm, which was the Immortal Emperor's top priority, I never sent anyone to stop it.
"Sigh, we now have to prepare military rations too, it's really not easy."
All the celestial officials frowned and sighed.
They indeed couldn't prepare so much celestial food in such a short time.
Yuwen Immortal King smiled and said, "Pass down the order that our Yuwen Immortal King's Palace will lead troops to rescue the Mountain and Sea Immortal King and purchase immortal grain according to the grain purchase standards of the Left Guard Army."
We need to collect enough divine provisions for a million-strong army for ten years.
No, it's said that Void Beasts are rampant in the void right now. It took the Mountain and Sea Immortal King fifteen or sixteen years to reach the Middle Realm, so let's also take fifteen or sixteen years to acquire them.”
The grain official received the order and went out to purchase the divine grain.
Next, Immortal King Yuwen issued recruitment quotas to the city lords of all the immortal cities in his territory.
It was pointed out very seriously that this recruitment was different from the previous ones, and the quality of the celestial soldiers had to be good enough.
Because they need to advance into the Middle Realm and traverse the void, immortal soldiers must at least have the cultivation level of a Luo Tian Shang Xian (a high-level immortal in the Heavenly Realm).
All the celestial officials accepted the order and left.
Only Yuwen Xianwang and his son remained in the hall.
The father and son smiled at each other.
