Chapter 434: World Chapter: The Xuanyong Army Rising to Resistance (10)
Outside the canyon battlefield, dark clouds gathered.
In the wilderness towards the Jixia Academy, the endless land is barren of grass, filled with rotten mud and deadly swamps. There is almost no sign of any life activity here, but among them, there are a few figures walking on this vast barren land.
They were Meng Tian and his men who had long since left the canyon battlefield.
"I didn't expect that even the land in Xuanyong has begun to become increasingly barren. It is not difficult to imagine how terrible the world will become in the future."
A sigh with some deep meaning suddenly came out from Meng Tian's mouth. This sigh came from the heart and was full of creepy meaning.
However, his unconscious sigh did not receive any response.
"You seem absent-minded since coming back from Xuanyong Plateau?" Meng Tian turned his head and glanced at the tall woman who had remained silent all the way.
Jing did not reply immediately. He just lowered his head and looked at the winding mud road in front of his boots. After walking for a long time, he slowly said, "I was just wondering whether your behavior in Xuanyong Plateau should be considered shameless or despicable."
Meng Tian was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "No matter which evaluation it is, it doesn't seem very friendly to me."
Jing was silent again, but the hint of disgust that inadvertently flashed across her cold and beautiful face did not conceal her contempt for Meng Tian.
Meng Tian didn't care about this, but teased himself: "I didn't expect that the Broken Mirror Blade, who advocates the theory of bloodline and always looks down on low-level creatures like soldiers, would actually start to pity those soldiers?"
Jing snorted lightly and said, "I just think that as a hero, you would actually use such a low-level method of deception to make them fight a war that is completely hopeless. Such behavior is simply a shame for our heroes."
"Oh?" Meng Tian returned his gaze to the front. "Although we are both one of the 22 Alka families, you and I are different. In my opinion, I am a general, not a soldier. Therefore, it is my duty to achieve the goal by any means necessary. This has nothing to do with being mean or shameless."
After a pause, Meng Tian continued, "So I think that my behavior was not wrong, and you don't have to feel unfair for those soldiers. They were born for war and died for war. This was their fate. I just followed the arrangement of fate and even made their sacrifice more valuable. What's wrong with that?"
Having said that, Meng Tian stopped and turned to face the mirror.
"The situation at the border is urgent. Even if we arrive there a little later, it will be a disaster for our Jixia Academy and the entire world, whether it comes from the [Enemy] or those seemingly loyal allies. You know very well that even if it's just for a short day, we need someone to help us temporarily delay the Federation, because we really don't have much time left, right?"
Under Meng Tian's mysterious gaze, Broken Mirror Blade finally remained silent.
This is the fact. Right and wrong in the world all depend on different standpoints.
At the same time, in the canyon battlefield.
"Bring that man up here!"
Following Shang Yang's order, in the commotion, in front of the two armies that were on the verge of a fight, a figure was pushed to the front of the Xuanyong Army.
Although his clothes and armor were torn, it was still not difficult to see that this man was wearing federal armor. His golden clothes looked so abrupt and uncoordinated among the densely packed dark black Xuanyong Army.
That was actually a federal soldier! No, to be more precise, he was the captain of a certain unit in the federal army!
"Hey, isn't that the captain of the 15th main force of the Bottom Road Legion, Fei Yi?!"
"What?! Brother Fei was caught by these bastards?!"
"Fuck, no wonder! I was wondering why I couldn't see anyone from the 15th Main Force when the army was gathering to surround us!"
"What do these bastards want to do?!"
The federal army was in an uproar. Apparently, Fei Yi was quite popular in the federal army. Many captains knew him and had a close relationship with him.
As for this situation, Wang Yao fell into silence.
One could even clearly feel that the endless violent and violent aura that was lingering around him a second ago was now disappearing rapidly at an extremely fast speed!
Fei Yi
A long time ago, when Wang Yao was just a captain of the Shu army, he had ten centurions under his command, and Fei Yi was one of them. At the same time, Fei Yi was also the only member of the "Seventh Main Force of the Shu Army" who survived to this day, except for Wang Yao and Sima Yi (2 Da).
At that time, Wang Yao took Fei Yi to the canyon on a dark and windy night, and jointly lured and killed Zhang Fei's son Zhang Shao. Afterwards, Zhuge Liang suggested that Wang Yao kill him, after all, only the dead can keep secrets better. But Wang Yao couldn't bear to do it and chose to send him away from Shu. This was also the reason why Fei Yi was able to escape the "Seventh Main Force Annihilation" incident and survive to this day.
Later, as time passed, Wang Yao established the Glory Federation, and Fei Yi led a thousand strong men from his hometown at that time and resolutely joined Wang Yao. Finally, under Wang Yao's arrangement, he became the captain of the Federation's lower legion.
This is actually an unfortunate tragedy.
When the canyon war against Xuan Yong started, Wang Yao almost broke through Xuan Yong's three outer towers alone. With frequent victories on the front line, the troops led by Fei Yi also penetrated into the hinterland of Xuan Yong one after another. Unfortunately, he met two heroes who were rushing to support the middle lane halfway; Meng Tian and Jing.
As a result, his troops were completely wiped out, but Fei Yi, a captain of a thousand men and also Wang Yao's old subordinate (all of Wang Yao's past was recorded in the Jixia Academy's organization), was captured alive and finally handed over to Shang Yang.
From Meng Tian's perspective, Fei Yi's role is to continue to delay Wang Yao's pace at the last moment.
And for Shang Yang, Fei Yi is the last trump card to force back the federal army!
"Sir, I will not repeat the same thing again! Either withdraw your troops immediately, or your former comrades will be the first to give our army the death sacrifice weapon!"
With a resolute declaration, Shang Yang kicked Fei Yi in the popliteal fossa, forcing him to kneel on the ground, and then put a sharp knife on his neck, as if to fight to the death!
"mean!!"
"Fuck you! Xuanyong Army, if you are a man, come and fight to the death in an open and fair manner! What kind of man are you if you use such shameless means?!"
"Stop it, damn!"
The federal army was in an uproar in an instant. While everyone was outraged, they were also helpless!
Putting aside the issue of friendship, firstly, many people knew that Fei Yi was an old subordinate of the alliance leader Wang Yao. Secondly, if they continued to launch a strong attack and Fei Yi was killed on the battlefield, it would give the federation's future enemies something to complain about, that is, in order to win, the federation can completely ignore the lives of the soldiers!
This is the pressure from public opinion, and it is also the reason why Shang Yang is confident that Fei Yi is the last trump card. He is betting that Wang Yao will remember their old friendship and that the federal army cannot afford the pressure from public opinion.
However, this dilemma did not last as long as Shang Yang wished, because Wang Yao, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly took action. Under the gaze of more than 500,000 pairs of eyes, Wang Yao slowly raised his hand and gently took off the iconic mask of pain that he had been wearing on his face.
Afterwards, almost no one was able to see Wang Yao's true face, and this was the first time he revealed his original mask in front of countless soldiers!
The pale skin that had completely lost its color due to not being exposed to sunlight for a long time, the scarlet left eye with a vertical scar as the backdrop, and the pure black right eye pupil on the other side were dull and there was absolutely no sign of any emotional fluctuations that a human should have!
The scene was instantly silent, and the soldiers seemed to have forgotten to breathe at this moment!
This feeling of suffocation did not only come from the shock of seeing Wang Yao's true face for the first time, but also from the fact that Wang Yao's face gave people the feeling that he looked more like a corpse that had been dead for a long time than a living person. Those were not the eyes that a living person should have!
Seems to have a feeling——
Fei Yi, who had been lowering his head in front, also gently raised his blood-stained face.
At that moment, time seemed to stand still, and the world fell into a blank. All people, things and objects disappeared, leaving only two people looking at each other.
The cold breeze gently brushed through the hair of the two people.
Fei Yi knelt on the ground, staring blankly at Wang Yao, while Wang Yao just looked down at him quietly.
There seemed to be a thousand words to say, yet all remained silent.
finally--
"Hey" Fei Yi closed his eyes, lowered his head again, and laughed softly.
On the opposite side, Wang Yao slowly placed his index finger against the edge of his ear.
"Sun Shangxiang, are you there?"
"Ah, ah? Oh! I'm here!" Sun Shangxiang's voice came through the remote communication channel.
Afterwards.
"Don't make me say it again. Now, shoot and kill the captain opposite me."
The sky is silent, the earth is silent!
next second.
boom!
Accompanied by a thunderous gunshot, a deadly bullet carrying the power of wind and thunder suddenly crossed a distance of a thousand meters and pierced through Fei Yi's chest in front of him without hesitation with absolute force!
Puff!
Blood splattered all over the sky in an instant, splashing Shang Yang's face, who was terrified, and also dyeing Wang Yao's eyes red.
"Master Wang Yao, please take care. Fei Yi will leave first."
"Everyone, I'm here."
Fei Yi, the soldier who had spent his best years following Wang Yao for many years, fell heavily on the land of the canyon with a smile without regrets. Like countless of his comrades, he lost his life forever.
The world is completely quiet!!
It seemed like a long time had passed, but it also seemed like only a second had passed.
"Kill!!"
Suddenly, earth-shaking shouts of killing rang out from the federal army behind Wang Yao, like a century-old volcanic eruption, which could not be stopped!
The moment Fei Yi fell, all the federal soldiers went crazy, with red eyes and drew their swords and rushed towards the enemy, because they were sad and angry about losing their comrades and because they had no regrets about joining the federation!
Just like the dead Fei Yi!
Wang Yao used the simplest way to explain a fact to Shang Yang: the federation's ambition will not be abandoned because of one person, no matter who that person is!
The extremely cruel war begins again.
This time, Wang Yao did not stop the attack of the federal soldiers. Instead, he activated his second skill and returned to the top of the mountain where Sun Shangxiang was among thousands of troops.
"Are you okay?" After taking a deep look at Wang Yao, the girl asked softly.
"It's okay." Wang Yao just replied lightly, then turned his head and looked into the distance behind him, as if he was looking for something.
Sun Shangxiang beside him looked at Wang Yao's profile silently, but didn't know what to say.
She knew that Wang Yao was in a very bad condition, because his hands were trembling slightly, which was the reaction of a person who was enduring to the extreme.
“Actually, you don’t need this.”
After much difficulty, she found some words of comfort, but before Sun Shangxiang could even finish her words, Wang Yao suddenly used his second skill and directly escaped into the vast jungle area behind him.
The strong wind whistled past, scratching people's skin painfully, but Wang Yao's lifeless eyes didn't even blink.
He leaped forward in the wild area at lightning speed. He passed through the continuous mountains, the wilderness filled with the sounds of beasts, the lush forests, and finally came to the edge of a cliff with a semicircular deep pool in the middle of the river.
The cliff is a hundred meters high, and the bottom of the deep pool below is shimmering and cold.
Staring at the deep pool with an expressionless face, Wang Yao's body suddenly tilted forward slightly. The next second, he fell directly into the abyss under his feet. Then, after falling for a hundred meters, just before falling into the deep pool, Wang Yao did another backflip and landed steadily on the water!
Bang!
The powerful force of the fall caused a large amount of water to splash.
And almost at the same time——
The originally mirror-smooth surface of the lake suddenly began to produce large foam and waves without any warning, as if something huge had been awakened and was constantly stirring and rolling inside. At the same time, the turquoise blue water in the lake suddenly turned pitch black!
suddenly--
Go boom!
Along with the explosion of water all over the sky, a tall and ferocious figure that seemed to come from ancient times suddenly emerged from the bottom of the deep pool with astonishing momentum!
For a moment, there was a violent storm in the deep pool, accompanied by bursts of deafening and terrifying roars!
Just like the first time they met a long time ago, with a terrifying pressure like a mountain pressing down on one's head, the huge dragon-shaped monster, like a mountain, looked down at Wang Yao with a pair of huge dark eyes, staring at him grimly with an expressionless face.
That is a feeling of hatred that has never been erased even after a thousand years!
Canyon, dominate!
