Chapter 441 Let the City

This is a treasure trove for finding excellent historical novels.

"Fellow Daoists, there's no need to be so tense. Although my old friend Zhen Yuanzi and I have joined the Divine Martial Hall, it's not to vie for power, but to protect the peace of the Cangzhou Army."

"As for the turmoil in Linyuan City, it's a long story, and it involves many secrets, so it's not convenient to go into details here."

Hongyun Patriarch looked at Si Ruokong with a smile, his eyes sparkling with a magnanimous wisdom that transcended worldly concerns.

"Senior, we understand. Since Governor Su, Senior, and Senior Zhen Yuanzi are all paying attention to this place in Lin, we will naturally act cautiously as well."

"But, could we enter Linyuan City and find out what's going on?"

"The head of the Suspended Mirror Bureau asked in a deep voice."

"Fellow Daoists, why the rush? Since I am here to oversee things, you don't need to personally venture into Linyuan City."

"I will convey your message to Jinyu on your behalf and do my best to quell this storm."

Upon hearing this, Ancestor Hongyun looked at the Master of the Suspended Mirror Division with a smile and said happily.

As he spoke, Ancestor Hongyun gently waved the bamboo staff in his hand. The staff seemed to contain some kind of inexplicable rhythm, making the surrounding air feel lighter.

"Furthermore, I have a secret to tell you. There are quite a few fun things to do in Linyuan City."

"For example, the old willow tree in the city has a history of a thousand years. And the small river in the city is said to hide some ancient treasures."

Si Ruokong and the Master of the Suspended Mirror Sect exchanged a glance, both seeing the helplessness in each other's eyes.

They knew that Ancestor Hongyun was trying to change the subject and didn't want them to enter Linyuan City.

At the same time, Hongyun looked behind Si Ruokong and the other person, her red robe swaying slightly.

Several figures followed closely behind, arriving not far from Si Ruokong and the other person.

"Hmph, you think you can trap us with such a mere illusion?"

One of the Celestials sneered, his tone full of disdain, yet he had to admit that the old man before him possessed unfathomable strength.

"Oh dear, this isn't a trick, but rather one of my little pleasures, called 'Wandering the World.' What do you all think? Does it meet your expectations?"

Upon hearing this, Ancestor Hongyun simply smiled gently, like a spring breeze, warm yet powerful.

After speaking, he gently waved his sleeve, and the clouds in the sky seemed to come alive, transforming into colorful butterflies that danced and swirled around Si Ruokong and the others. They neither attacked nor retreated, but simply displayed their master's extraordinary nature in a playful way.

"What a magnificent display of wandering the world!"

Another powerful figure spoke up, his tone carrying a hint of admiration, yet also a hint of probing, "However, we have important matters to attend to today, and we hope that senior will grant us this favor."

Upon hearing this, Ancestor Hongyun's smile widened, a sly glint in his eyes. "Convenient? Of course, that's fine. However, I'd also like to have some fun. If you can answer one question correctly, I'll let you pass. How about it?"

Upon hearing this, Si Ruokong and the others exchanged glances. Although they were dissatisfied, they knew that this senior's strength was extraordinary and that it was not advisable to confront him head-on. So they had no choice but to reluctantly agree.

"Alright, senior, please give me a question."

The Old Ancestor Hongyun smiled slightly, his gaze piercing through the clouds, as if recalling the past, "Of all things in the world, what is the most carefree?"

Upon hearing this question, a profound silence fell over the surroundings, and even the wind seemed to stop blowing.

"Forehead……"

The powerful figures opposite them exchanged bewildered glances, feeling as if the old man in red robes was playing a trick on them.

...

Meanwhile, within Linyuan City, the ancient city, bathed in the crimson glow of the setting sun, appeared even more desolate.

Carrying the head of a late-stage Celestial Realm expert, Wang Xiangyang walked steadily out of the city lord's mansion, his steps paved with the blood of his enemies.

His face was cold and stern, his eyes devoid of joy or sorrow, and he was surrounded by lingering fighting spirit and bloodlust.

"Clean up the battlefield and act quickly."

Wang Xiangyang's voice was not loud, but the soldiers of Cangzhou outside quickly sprang into action, busy cleaning up the battlefield and preparing to set off.

"The people of Shenwu Hall and Luowang must withdraw from Linyuan City immediately without fail."

Wang Xiangyang gave the order again, his voice echoing in front of the empty city lord's mansion.

Upon hearing this, the members of Shenwu Hall and Luowang who had just arrived quickly assembled and prepared to evacuate this ancient city that had been ravaged by war.

The leaders of Luo Wang, Zhao Gao, and Fei Yan of Yin Yang School glanced deeply at Wang Xiangyang in front of them, their eyes flashing with deep shock and fear.

But he didn't say anything more, and just silently cleaned up the battlefield full of debris.

They then followed the transport troops that had secretly emptied Linyuan City and left through a secret passage beneath the city.

At this moment, Lin Yuan City was in the midst of Su Ye leading the main force of the Cangzhou army to fight against the Taiping Sect.

Under Wang Xiangyang's command, most of the supplies were secretly moved, turning Linyuan City into a ghost town.

"As for the remaining Cangzhou troops, follow me to the city wall to defend this city."

Wang Xiangyang's gaze swept over the Cangzhou soldiers present, then he turned and walked towards the city wall not far away.

At this moment, a general from the Cangzhou army walked up to Wang Xiangyang and bowed respectfully.

"Very good, pass down the order: all soldiers, immediately assume defensive posture."

At this moment, Wang Xiangyang stood quietly on the city wall, his gaze piercing through layers of clouds and mist, as if staring at the enemy in the distance.

Hearing the question from the Cangzhou army general beside him, Wang Xiangyang nodded slightly, his gaze still fixed on the distance, and said in a deep voice.

Now, the last thing he needs to do is confirm whether the Daqian army that is about to launch an attack on the Cangzhou army from the rear is actually following the script.

If they have their own ideas and want to cause trouble...

Su Ye said that his Tiger and Leopard Cavalry were still holding back their anger and had nowhere to vent it!

Not long after, not far from Linyuan City, the rumbling sound of troops marching along the road, like ancient war drums, resounded loudly, making the bricks and stones on the ancient city wall seem to tremble slightly, as if telling of another battle approaching.

An army clad in the standard armor of the Great Qian Dynasty, like a dark cloud pressing down on the city, rapidly approached this ancient city that had weathered many storms.

However, when this large army arrived at the city of Linyuan, it did not immediately launch a fierce attack.

There was little verbal exchange between the two sides, no pre-battle provocations or shouts, only silence and a tense atmosphere permeated the air.

The Daqian army below the city seemed to follow some tacit understanding, immediately forming ranks on the spot and beginning to prepare for the attack in an orderly manner.

Wang Xiangyang, standing on the city wall, secretly breathed a sigh of relief as he watched the Daqian army below make no unexpected moves.

Therefore, after briefly resisting for a period of time, Wang Xiangyang decisively issued the order to retreat.
