Chapter 9 Silence

Tianjing City, Taiyiguan.

Late December is the coldest time in Tianjing.

The dark clouds in the night sky fill the sky, and countless snowflakes fall slowly. The twelve cities in Tianjin are covered with a thin layer of white snow, and the world seems to have become simple...

If it were the former Tianjing City, it would have been ready to welcome the New Year. However, the invasion of the demons made everyone feel no longer in the mood for the New Year. Since the invasion of the demons, Tianjing City has implemented a curfew and controlled important materials such as food.

The twelve cities in Tianjin have been taken over by the army. Taverns, brothels, casinos and other places of entertainment have been closed. The most prosperous and lively city in the world has become deserted at night like a dead city.

The backyard of Taiyiguan has a seven-story high shelf, all of which are made of red sandalwood. Even in the deep winter, the fragrance of sandalwood can spread far away. The natural wood fragrance makes people feel peaceful.

Yuan Zhen and Jiangshan were on the shelf, looking at the western sky from afar. Even the great masters could not see the situation thousands of miles away. But Yuan Zhen insisted that the country was in trouble, so he followed Yuan Zhen to look at the sky together.

"Yuan Tianyi is the most cunning. He won't lose any hair even if we die. Don't worry." Jiang Shan said casually, and took a sip of dragon blood wine from time to time, which seemed extremely relaxed.

Yuan Zhen was also drinking. Under the nourishment of the Dragon Blood Wine, her pale face turned red. "I just felt a little regretful, and I was unable to see the power of the Demon Emperor."

Jiangshan shook his head disapprovingly, "If I could have a choice, I wouldn't want to see the Demon Emperor."

The two of them were talking, and they felt a sense at the same time. They couldn't help but look to the West. Yuan Zhen and Jiangshan's faces changed a little.

The aura of the destruction of the Grand Master can be sensed even if it is thousands of miles apart. The aura of the destruction is clearly Yuan Tianyi.

After coming over for a while, Jiang Shan smiled bitterly and said, "You have been sneaking all your life and have come to be brave."

Jiangshan had no good feelings for Yuan Tianyi, and even hated Yuan Tianyi's deep scheming. This time, in order to fight against the demon clan, Jiangshan had no choice but to cooperate with Yuan Tianyi. However, he always secretly held Yuan Tianyi.

Yuan Tianyi asked Jiangshan to leave. Jiangshan even pulled Yuan Zhen away without saying a word. Jiangshan never expected that Yuan Tianyi would be so strong and would rather die than retreat.

Yuan Zhen remained silent.

The only three of them were left in the world. Yuan Tianyi died again. With Yuan Zhen's perseverance, he felt extremely heavy in his heart. He was so suppressed that he could not breathe.

Yuan Zhen never fears personal life and death, but when he thinks that the burden of the survival of hundreds of millions of human races is dependent on them, and such pressure is so heavy that it is almost impossible to bear.

A golden light suddenly penetrated through the window and turned into a letter and stopped in front of Yuan Zhen.

Yuan Zhen opened the letter with a movement in his heart. After reading it, Yuan Zhen handed it to Jiangshan and sighed: "How magnificent, how magnificent, what regret does the national teacher seek to benevolence and get benevolence."

Jiangshan looked through the letter and it was the last last words left by Yuan Tianyi to them. Yuan Tianyi briefly told his plan in the letter. If he could kill the Demon King, it would be a great blessing for the human race. If he couldn't kill it, let both of them not find a way out, don't stand it to the end, and try to retain vitality for the human race.

Jiang Shan also sighed, "Although Yuan Tianyi's plan was calculated thoroughly, the Demon Emperor was probably not dead."

Yuan Zhen suddenly said, "The Demon Emperor is not dead, and he will be injured even with the national master's strong blow. Maybe this is our opportunity." As he said that, Yuan Zhen's eyes lit up.

Jiangshan hurriedly advised: "Even if the Demon King is injured, he has two magical weapons on his hand, which is not something we can kill. Take a step back and say that he has at least four great demons around him. He will never have a chance to succeed."

Yuan Zhen thought for a while and said, "It's better to send a message to Gao Huan. This is a precious opportunity."

Jiangshan also hesitated. The situation was so critical that no one was thinking about looking for Gao Huan. It was not that they had forgotten it, but that they all regarded Gao Huan as their last hope.

Gao Huan was unable to leave seclusion, which proved that he had not reached the level of Great Perfection. He was waking him rashly for fear of affecting his practice. But as Yuan Zhen said, this was a precious opportunity.

After the demons invaded for so long, they have also captured a lot of demons. They have also gained a deep understanding of the organizational form of the demons. As Gao Huan said at first, if they can kill the Demon Emperor, the demons will be able to collapse without fighting.

With the decision of the country, it is still difficult to make a decision immediately when facing this problem.

There is no way to judge what the Demon Emperor is now and what the situation is now. It would be too hasty to call Gao Huan just by just one guess.

Jiangshan thought for a while and said, "You send a letter to Gao Huan to ask about his situation first, and then tell him about this situation. Let him decide for himself."

Jiangshan still trusts Gao Huan very much. Not only in terms of force, Gao Huan's wisdom and decision-making in handling matters, but few people in the world can compare with Yuan Zhen. There are decisions, but Jiangshan doesn't trust her judgment very much.

Yuan Zhen also agreed with Jiangshan's opinion and sent Gao Huan a flying letter.

By the next day, the Xuanyuan Dynasty knew about Yuan Tianyi's death. The dynasty was in panic. Although the national teacher Yuan Tianyi did not interfere in the affairs of the court, he was the giant pillar of the Xuanyuan Dynasty to support the sky.

No matter what happens, as long as Yuan Tianyi is there, everyone will have a clear mind. Yuan Tianyi's almost sudden death in battle made everyone very uneasy.

Emperor Xuanyuan Zhan was even more so. He always felt that Yuan Tianyi always pointed fingers and had too many opinions. But when Yuan Tianyi completely disappeared, he realized how much he needed Yuan Tianyi's guidance.

The death of the national teacher Yuan Tianyi and the disastrous defeat of Tianyuan City also made the court feel like a burial was about to collapse. The turmoil in people's hearts was uncontrollable. Everyone began to make their own plans.

This kind of news cannot be kept confidential. It really spreads from ten to ten, and ten to hundreds. In less than the afternoon, everyone in Tianjing learned about the news.

In Zichen Palace, Emperor Xuanyuan Zhan was discussing with several important officials.

"The demons are so powerful that they will soon reach the city of Tianjing. Can everyone have a plan to deal with it?"

Emperor Xuanyuan Zhan has been in power for more than ten years and has already achieved the ninth level of cultivation under the forced promotion of the secret techniques of the royal family. After being the emperor for so long, he has accumulated confidence and majesty. Although he is extremely afraid of the demons, his correct national character does not show any voice and expression on his face, showing his graceful and luxurious spirit.

Forced by Xuanyuan Zhan's gaze, the Grand Marshal Jia Hongyuan stood up and said, "In the battle of Tianyuan City, he lost 310,000 troops and countless food and supplies. Thirty thousand warlocks drawn by various parties were killed and injured. More than 400 powerful people in the heavenly level have only collected 137. This battle has suffered heavy losses. In the short term, we are unable to engage in such a large war..."

Xuanyuan Zhan's face was as heavy as water, "I can't fight hard, where is my three million troops?"

Jia Hongyuan helpless arrogance: "Your Majesty. It is impossible for all three million troops to be transferred together. Not to mention anything else, the food cannot be supplied. From the front line of Tianyuan City to Tianjing City, the Tianlang Army, Zhanlong Army and other more than one million troops have already arranged defense lines..."

As the Grand Marshal, although Jia Hongyuan was a little brave, he was a real expert in military affairs. He explained the arrangement and plan of the army very clearly.

After hearing what Jia Hongyuan said in such detail, Xuanyuan Zhan looked a little better and said, "How long can he block the demons?"

Jia Hongyuan's face turned pale, and he hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, "I am incompetent and cannot determine the time. But Tianyuan City cannot stop the demon clan for five days, and other cities will be even more unbearable..." Jia Hongyuan did not say it clearly, but the implication was that the cities along the way could not be kept. It was even more impossible to stop the demon clan's progress.

Although Xuanyuan Zhan was angry, he knew that Jia Hongyuan was not blamed for this matter, so he personally helped Jia Hongyuan up, "No wonder that my dear minister is not blamed for this matter." He then said, "Prime Minister, what do you think?"

Ge Shaoyuan slowly stood up from his seat and said, "As far as the old minister saw, the national teacher could not block the demon soldiers even if he died in battle. It is obvious that fighting to the death is not a good idea..."

Xuanyuan Zhan looked straight at Ge Shaoyuan, wanting to see what he could say. At this point, there are only two ways to choose.

Fight to the death or surrender. Although Xuanyuan Zhan wanted to surrender in his heart, as the king of a country, he could not say this by himself.

Ge Shaoyuan understood the emperor's meaning, but he did not dare to say the word surrender easily. The first person who said this would definitely be recorded in history. Although the demon army might destroy everything, out of caution, Ge Shaoyuan just said: "It is of great importance, we must make a long-term plan..."

"What are you going to do after a long-term plan? It will be too late to wait for the demons to come. In order to save the people of the world and the water and fire, I dare to ask Your Majesty to discuss peace with the demons."

King Xuanyuan Xin of Dingyang said loudly.

Xuanyuan Xin was Xuanyuan Zhan’s eleventh uncle, and he had a close relationship with Xuanyuan Zhan since childhood. Xuanyuan Zhan became the emperor, and Xuanyuan Xin also rose and became an important official in the dynasty. The peace talks about Xuanyuan Xin were just a nice saying of surrender. The royal family, who enjoyed thousands of years of glory and wealth, had long lost their courage.

Xuanyuan Zhan pretended to be in trouble, and Grand Situ Jingjun and Sikong Zhangyu bowed at the same time and said, "Your Majesty, peace talks are the best strategy."

"It's not possible to negotiate peace." A man suddenly interrupted.

Xuanyuan Xin was furious. In this hall, someone dared to stop the peace talks, not seeking death. "This matter can only be judged by His Majesty. What's your turn to be? Uh,"

Before Xuanyuan Xin finished speaking, he couldn't continue. The man behind him looked handsome, had a slender figure, with a bun on his head, a long dress that was better than snow, and was not stained with dust. He stood in the fairy and superb, as if he was a god.

"Saint Lord, then you can just slap it." Gao Huan said with a smile.

Gao Huan's smile was very gentle, but Xuanyuan Zhan felt a chill in his heart. He knew that it was Gao Huan's forced Xuanyuan Hong to commit suicide.

The peace talks were circling in his throat, but he couldn't say anything. Xuanyuan Zhan's eyes turned, and when he saw the other ministers, he was drooping and no one dared to speak. He felt even more embarrassed.

"Since the leader is here, of course I have to ask the leader for advice." Xuanyuan Zhan thought for a moment and said insincerely.

Gao Huan smiled again, "Let me say it's very simple. Either the demons die or my tribe die. How can there be a third way?" He said again and said with a stern voice: "Dare to argue for peace, the surrender will die."

Before he finished speaking, Xuanyuan Xin, Dasitu Jingjun, and Dasikong Zhangyu burst into pieces at the same time, and blood and blood splashed in all directions.

Xuanyuan Zhan's face was covered with flesh and blood, and he was extremely embarrassed and didn't even dare to look at Gao Huan.

The other important officials in Zichen Hall were also silent and no one dared to say anything.
