Chapter 229 Battle of North County
A month later, they arrived at Wanghai City in Beiming. The group was then teleported to Beiyue City in Dongming and headed straight south. It was another month later that they arrived at Beijun.
Leng Huan never expected that he would run into such a big thing as soon as he returned.
"Huanxue, you're finally back!" The Leng family head personally led everyone to open the protective array to welcome them. Looking at Leng Huan and her group, they couldn't sense her and Fu Xun's cultivation levels, knowing that their realms were unfathomable, and everyone was extremely excited.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Patriarch Leng quickly ushered them through the gate. Once in the hall, Leng Huan finally asked, "Patriarch, why activate the grand formation?"
"To resist the Divine Dynasty." The Leng family head's expression was solemn. Leng Huan was startled: "What about them?"
"This is a long story," the Leng family head shook his head, turning his gaze to the group from Holy Snow Valley. "Huanxue, who are these people?" Their attire was clearly unusual. The rest of the Leng family members were all curious.
Leng Huan: "This is a long story, but I'll make it short."
"This is the Valley Master of the Sacred Snow Valley of the Northern Sea..." She briefly recounted the trip to Sacred Snow Valley and the desire of both sides to merge their clans. "That's it. The Valley Master and I both believe that we can merge our clans to complete the tasks of our ancestors and pass on the legacy completely."
The Leng family head and the other elders were already stunned and speechless. After a long while, the Leng family head finally nodded, stood up, and solemnly bowed to the Valley Master, his hands trembling slightly: "I really never thought that one day there would still be a branch of my clan. Greetings, senior!"
The Valley Master hurriedly rose to return the greeting and sighed, urging the clans to unite as soon as possible.
Both sides discussed the matter of merging their clans carefully.
Three days later, the matter was settled. Leng Huan obtained the complete cultivation technique and also learned that in recent years, the Divine Dynasty had been using high-sounding reasons to eliminate powerful families and sects within its borders and frantically seize resources.
No wonder the streets felt much quieter and more deserted as soon as I entered the city; the air was thick with tension, and even the city lord's mansion was tightly shut.
Flower Hall.
“A month ago, the Prince’s Mansion of Dongdu sent a letter with an exorbitant demand, asking all the noble families to pay tribute with countless resources.”
Leng Feng, who had already broken through to the Nascent Soul stage, sat opposite Leng Huan and Fu Xun.
Leng Feng poured two cups of spiritual tea and placed them in front of the two of them. He then said, "I don't know what's gotten into them. They've completely broken off relations. Beijun City reacted quickly, and the major families joined forces to keep the experts from the Divine Dynasty outside the city."
Leng Huan's heart stirred slightly; he feared a storm was brewing.
Fu Xun: "I'm afraid the powerful families around Zhongjing have already been completely devoured. Even such a remote place as Beijun has suffered, so the situation in other cities is not much better."
Leng Feng's expression was one of disgust: "Yes, they are too domineering. They use both soft and hard tactics against powerful forces, but they are brutal and swift when dealing with smaller forces and aristocratic families. We have received information that in just a few months, the Divine Dynasty has already taken over countless aristocratic families, cities, and sects."
This is an internal matter of the Divine Dynasty, and the major immortal sects cannot interfere.
What is the Divine Dynasty trying to do?
Leng Huan and Fu Xun slowly walked back to the embroidery pavilion. The children had already been called away by Madam Leng. The children were all adults now, and the two of them were no longer followed around by their tails.
"Do you think the Divine Dynasty has really gone mad?" Leng Huan stopped in front of the artificial hill.
Fu Xun pondered for a moment, "Do you still remember Nanshan City from back then?"
“Of course…” Before Leng Huan could finish speaking, a huge buzzing sound suddenly came from afar, “Weng-Weng,” first deep and then sharp. It was actually the sound of the protective array of Beijun City.
The two exchanged a glance and instantly appeared above the city gate. Soon after, the heads of various families and elders arrived.
"The Divine Dynasty has attacked the city again!"
Chaos erupted in the streets as people shouted, and everyone quickly slammed their doors shut. Ordinary people, knowing that a celestial master would intervene, simply hid themselves.
Leng Huan stared at the outside of the great formation. The ground was densely packed with standard-issue troops, and every soldier was a Foundation Establishment cultivator, a Nascent Soul general, or a Golden Core captain.
She was secretly astonished. How could there be so many Foundation Establishment stage soldiers? Forming a military formation, with special offensive and defensive arrays within the army, enhanced by spiritual power, the combined power of so many Foundation Establishment stage soldiers was terrifying.
Looking up, they saw that those flying in the sky were all high-level cultivators, including several Nascent Soul and Divine Transformation cultivators. The leader was none other than Xiao Shi, the King of Dongdu, who was in the late Divine Transformation stage.
"This is outrageous!" City Lord Mu Rongyi's face was grim. As the city lord of Beijun, this was his responsibility.
The Valley Master appeared silently beside Leng Huan and transmitted his voice, "Senior Saintess, what's going on?"
After careful consideration, and combining what Fu Xun had just said about Nanshan City, Leng Huan seemed to understand why the Divine Dynasty had gone mad.
She replied telepathically: "Master Shuigu, according to the family genealogy, you are actually my elder. The Eastern Sea Continent is about to be engulfed in turmoil, and this is a matter for my Eastern Sea. You should return to the Leng family to avoid this moment. I would like to ask you for a favor later."
The Valley Master said, "I understand. Holy Maiden, please take care. I'll leave for now and wait for you to resolve this matter." With that, he disappeared.
Leng Huan and Fu Xun had just returned to Beijun, and the outside world was unaware that the Leng family had two Nascent Soul cultivators. Otherwise, the King of Dongdu would never have brought only ten thousand troops to attack the city.
She sneered inwardly. The Divine Dynasty had vast resources and was secretly cultivating a Foundation Establishment stage army using secret methods. She had just figured this out.
If it's related to the Demonic Sect, then the Divine Dynasty's actions become even more understandable.
They're now openly targeting domestic forces; they can't wait any longer. Or rather, something is forcing them to do this.
Leng Huan stared at the Eastern Capital King in the distance. His black and gold robes were flamboyant and unrestrained, his face was excessively pale, and his eyes were as dark as an abyss. He carried the disdain of a superior, regarding others as worthless.
His voice, imbued with spiritual pressure, resounded: "Those who defy and disrespect will be killed without mercy!"
Mu Rongyi's expression changed slightly. He secretly glanced in Leng Huan's direction, refusing to give the King of Dongdu any face, and cursed loudly: "Bah! Your Divine Dynasty is such an inhuman and unjust bandit. Today, let's see if your Eastern Capital Royal Army can set foot in my Northern Prefecture!"
His words resonated with the other cultivators in the Northern County, and their expressions turned solemn.
Leng Huan surveyed the entire scene. The Leng family head was naturally present, as were the elders from various families who had emerged from seclusion, while the younger generation stood at the rear.
Some smaller aristocratic families were terrified by the imposing presence of the Eastern Capital King's army. They preferred to give up resources rather than resist and were willing to surrender. However, they couldn't bring themselves to do so at this critical juncture, since the last siege was neither carried out by the Eastern Capital King nor by any Foundation Establishment troops.
With tens of thousands of armored soldiers, plus formations and highly skilled cultivators, annihilating a minor aristocratic family would be an easy task.
A high-level cultivator can destroy a city or a country with a wave of their hand, provided there is no other high-level cultivator present.
A loud booming sound reached everyone's ears; it was the army forming a battle formation to attack the city gate, which was the East Gate.
I don't know what kind of formation it is, but the combined power of the army has reached the level of the Nascent Soul stage.
The array hummed and trembled, and soon a crack appeared. Leng Huan rubbed his fingertips, feeling an itch to do so.
The defensive array of Beijun City cannot be compared with that of the capital city. Although it can withstand attacks from cultivators at the Integration stage, it will break down quickly without subsequent spiritual energy support due to such frequent and fierce attacks.
"beat!"
The patriarchs had decided to fight, and once the gates were opened, the two sides clashed.
Leng Huan finally released his cultivation and turned his gaze to the Eastern Capital King who was watching from the sidelines. At this moment, he sensed that Leng Huan's aura did not belong to the Nascent Soul stage, and his eyes suddenly opened, his expression hardening.
"Who are you?"
His answer was a deafening roar. Fu Xun alone blocked the force of the army formation. Before the King of Dongdu could even be stunned, Leng Huan appeared in front of him and simultaneously struck out with his hand, sending him flying.
