Chapter 760 Dealing with the Enemy
Chapter 760 Dealing with the Enemy
Li Mingyang spent several uneasy days in Tianyuan City. Although he was safe temporarily, he knew in his heart that this was just the calm before the storm.
Lin Aofeng will not let him go easily, nor will he give up his ambition for Tianyuan City.
However, facing such a powerful enemy, Li Mingyang felt unprecedented powerlessness.
He doesn't know what to do next and even begins to doubt his ability to protect those he cares about.
One night, Li Mingyang came to a small hill outside the city alone, staring at the starry sky in a daze.
Xiaolong noticed his strangeness and followed him silently. It was not until Li Mingyang stopped that Xiaolong gently asked, "Brother Mingyang, what are you thinking about?"
Li Mingyang turned around and looked at Xiaolong's clear eyes, and was choked up for a moment.
He slowly squatted down, gently stroked Xiaolong's head, and whispered: "I'm wondering what we should do next...Lin Aofeng is too powerful, we are no match for him at all."
Xiaolong blinked, seeming to understand Li Mingyang's concerns.
It comforted him in a childish voice: "Brother Mingyang, don't worry. We will definitely find a way!"
Li Mingyang sighed and said with a wry smile: "But I am really confused now. I don't know how to defeat Lin Aofeng, and I don't know how to protect everyone."
Xiaolong raised his head and looked at Li Mingyang seriously, with a determined light flashing in his eyes.
"Brother Mingyang, you have to believe in yourself! You have always been the bravest and smartest! As long as we work together, we will be able to overcome the difficulties!"
Li Mingyang was deeply moved by Xiaolong's words. He hugged Xiaolong tightly, and a warm power surged in his heart.
"Thank you, Xiaolong. Your words helped me regain my confidence and courage."
Xiaolong laughed happily, "Hehe, you're welcome! I will always be by your side!"
At this moment, the relationship between Li Mingyang and Xiaolong became deeper. They looked up at the starry sky together, as if they saw hope for the future. Although the road ahead was full of unknowns and challenges, they decided to move forward hand in hand and face everything together.
"Xiaolong, do you think we can really defeat Lin Aofeng? I feel it's so difficult! He is too powerful, and there seems to be an unknown force behind him. Do we... do we really have a chance?" Li Mingyang said in a low voice, with a hint of confusion and frustration.
Xiaolong was silent for a moment, then looked at Li Mingyang with a firm gaze and answered seriously: "Brother Mingyang, I believe we can do it. Although it seems difficult now, as long as we don't give up, we will find a solution one day. Do you remember what Grandpa Ling Xiaozi said? You have the blood of a hero flowing in your body, and there will be many challenges waiting for you in the future. So, please don't give up easily."
Hearing Xiaolong's words, Li Mingyang felt a warm current in his heart. He felt a warm power spreading from the bottom of his heart, which gradually restored his originally somewhat lost mood. He looked at Xiaolong with gratitude in his eyes.
Li Mingyang took a deep breath, nodded, and said, "Thank you, Xiaolong. Your encouragement has helped me regain my confidence." He understood that he was not fighting alone, and there were so many people around him who cared about him and supported him. They had experienced many difficulties and challenges together, and grew up together.
Therefore, Li Mingyang decided to cheer up and no longer be troubled by the current predicament. He wanted to face everything bravely, find a new direction, and move forward.
The next morning, sunlight poured into the room through the window and shone on Li Mingyang's face. He opened his eyes and felt a new vitality. After getting up, he quickly washed up and went out to find Yun Zhonghe.
After meeting Yun Zhonghe, Li Mingyang frankly expressed his inner confusion and told him what Xiaolong said one by one. Yun Zhonghe listened quietly without interrupting him. After Li Mingyang finished speaking, Yun Zhonghe slowly spoke.
Upon hearing the news, Yun Zhonghe and Li Mingyang looked at each other with a hint of doubt in their eyes. "Yougu? What is that place?" Li Mingyang asked.
Yun Zhonghe shook his head. "I don't know either. I've never heard of it. But since he took the initiative to come to us, maybe he can bring us some useful information." After saying that, he turned to look at the soldier and ordered, "Bring him in."
After a while, a mysterious man in a black robe and a bamboo hat was brought into the hall. He exuded a faint spiritual energy fluctuation, and it was obvious that he had a good cultivation.
"I am the messenger from Yougu, and I have come to visit you on the orders of the Valley Master." The mysterious man said calmly.
Yun Zhonghe looked him up and down, then asked, "Why did your Valley Master send you here?"
The mysterious man smiled slightly, revealing a mouthful of white teeth. "To be honest, my valley master learned about the feud between you and Lin Aofeng, and specially sent me here to show his support."
Yun Zhonghe was delighted when he heard this. "Oh? Why does your master want to help us?"
The mysterious man smiled but said nothing. He just took out a letter from his pocket and handed it to Yun Zhonghe. "All the answers are in this letter. Please take a look at it yourself, Elder."
Yun Zhonghe took the letter and opened it. He saw that it was filled with dense words. He read it carefully and a look of surprise gradually appeared on his face. After reading it, he handed the letter to Li Mingyang and asked him to read it too.
Li Mingyang took the letter and read it carefully. After a moment, he raised his head, looked at the mysterious man and asked, "Are you really willing to provide assistance?"
The mysterious man nodded, "Of course, as long as you agree to the conditions of the Valley Master, Yougu will be your strongest backing."
Yun Zhonghe and Li Mingyang exchanged glances. They knew that if they could get Yougu's support, it would be like adding wings to a tiger. But at the same time, they also had to consider whether the conditions proposed by the other party were reasonable. After all, there is no free lunch in the world.
After careful consideration, Yun Zhonghe decided to first understand Yougu's strength and their requirements. So he said to the mysterious man, "Please wait a moment, we need time to discuss."
The mysterious man smiled and nodded, showing his understanding. Then, Yun Zhonghe took Li Mingyang into the inner room and began to discuss how to deal with this sudden opportunity.
"Yougu?" Li Mingyang and Yun Zhonghe looked at each other in surprise. Yougu was a mysterious place in legends. It was said that a group of hermits lived there and rarely came into contact with the outside world. Now they actually sent people here, there must be a deep meaning behind it.
Yun Zhonghe ordered the soldiers to bring the messenger in, and then he and Li Mingyang went to the reception room to greet them. Not long after, a young man in green clothes and with a handsome face walked into the hall. He bowed and said, "Hello, my name is Hanfeng, and I am the messenger of Yougu. I came here because I heard that Tianyuan City was in trouble, so I came to help."
Li Mingyang was pleasantly surprised when he heard this, and asked quickly: "Brother Hanfeng, why do you want to help us? You know, Tianyuan City and Yougu have never had any contact."
Han Feng smiled slightly and explained: "In fact, many years ago, our Yougu has had an indissoluble bond with Tianyuan City. However, due to some reasons, this history has been kept secret. Now the situation is critical, and we can no longer sit idly by."
"What's the indissoluble bond?" Li Mingyang asked curiously.
Han Feng sighed, as if recalling something long ago. "Back then, the founder of Tianyuan City made a vow with our Yougu, promising to help each other in times of crisis. Although time has passed, this promise has never changed."
After hearing the news, Li Mingyang and Yun Zhonghe were both very surprised, but they also saw a glimmer of hope. Han Feng said that Yougu was willing to provide support, including supplies, intelligence and even manpower. This was undoubtedly a timely help for Tianyuan City, which was in trouble.
However, just as everyone was preparing to discuss the details of the cooperation, a violent tremor suddenly came from afar, and the entire Tianyuan City seemed to be shaking. Everyone immediately realized that something was wrong and rushed to the city wall to check what was going on.
At the end of the sky, a dark cloud was approaching rapidly, and in this dark cloud, countless birds and beasts could be vaguely seen. They seemed to be driven by some kind of force and were rushing towards Tianyuan City.
"Oh no, it's Lin Aofeng's advance team!" Yun Zhonghe's face changed drastically, "It seems they didn't give us much time to prepare."
Li Mingyang clenched his fists. Although he felt a heavy burden in his heart, he could not afford to hesitate at this moment. "No matter what, we must defend this place. Elder Yun Zhonghe, Xiaolong, and Brother Hanfeng, let us fight side by side!"
When Tianyuan City was facing an unprecedented crisis, Li Mingyang finally found his place. He understood that a true hero is not omnipotent, but a spirit that never gives up in the face of difficulties. And this time, he is determined to lead everyone to overcome the difficulties, even if the road ahead is full of unknowns and dangers.
As the enemy's advance troops approached, the guards of Tianyuan City were on high alert. Li Mingyang, Yun Zhonghe, Xiaolong, and Han Feng, who had just arrived, stood on the city wall, looking forward with a firm gaze. The soldiers under the city wall were also ready for battle, but everyone knew in their hearts that this would be a tough battle.
Li Mingyang ordered: "Everyone, get ready. Once the enemy approaches, shoot arrows immediately. Elder Yun Zhonghe, please cast your spell to weaken the enemy's offensive as much as possible."
Yun Zhonghe nodded, closed his eyes and concentrated, the magic power in his hands flowed, ready to cast the strongest defensive spell at any time. At the same time, Xiaolong also turned into a ray of light, hovering in the air, ready to use his own power to assist the guards.
Just as the two sides were about to engage in a fierce battle, the enemy's offensive suddenly stopped. Not far from the city wall, a group of people separated from the team and slowly moved forward. The leader rode a black horse, wearing silver armor and a feather crown, looking particularly majestic. This person was Lin Aofeng's capable general - Tieying.
Tieying's voice spread throughout the battlefield through magic: "Listen, guards of Tianyuan City, your resistance is in vain. Lord Lin has mastered the magic weapon to win, and he will soon be able to break through this city. If you surrender now, you may still be able to save your lives."
Li Mingyang sneered and responded: "Tieying, don't try to shake our will with these words. I tell you, as long as I am still alive, I will not let you set foot in Tianyuan City!"
Iron Eagle's face darkened when he heard this, and he waved his hand. Instantly, countless huge mechanical puppets flew out from the enemy's ranks. They were huge and fast, and rushed towards the city wall. These puppets were obviously more difficult to deal with than ordinary soldiers. They were invulnerable to swords and guns, and arrows could hardly cause any damage to them.
Facing such an enemy, Li Mingyang and others did not retreat. Yun Zhonghe immediately cast a spell to try to destroy the internal structure of the puppet; Xiaolong kept shuttling in the air, using his speed advantage to attack the puppet's weaknesses. However, the number of these puppets was too large, and for a while, the guards of Tianyuan City were in a bitter battle.
Just as the battle reached its climax, Tieying spoke again: "Li Mingyang, your strength is not bad, but it's a pity that you are still too young. Since physical attacks are ineffective, I will let you see Lord Lin's new invention - the Soul Binding Array."
As soon as he finished speaking, a huge circle of light suddenly appeared in the sky, and it quickly spread out, covering the entire battlefield. Suddenly, everyone's movements became slow, and even Xiaolong could no longer fly freely as before. Li Mingyang only felt that an invisible force bound his body, and even thinking became difficult.
"What's going on?" Li Mingyang asked reluctantly.
