Super Martial Era: My Little World

Chapter 176 Assassination turns into assault

"this?"

A flicker of hesitation crossed Gongyang Xuan's eyes. He had only been forced to sign the secret agreement with the Danu Empire due to its overwhelming power. He wanted nothing more than to be a fence-sitter, siding with whichever side held greater power.

Wanyan Hongzhen's eyes flashed with a fierce light, and he threatened fiercely: "Oh? Gongyang Xuanyi, do you Gongyang family want to go back on your word? Then our Dannu Empire can also destroy your Gongyang family and then move south!"

Although the Danu Empire's national strength is far inferior to that of the Wei Empire, and the number of real-level strongmen and elite troops is far less than that of the Wei Empire, it is still more than enough to destroy the Gongyang Family.

Gongyang Xuanyi hesitated for only a moment before speaking decisively, "General Wanyan, don't worry. I'll have the Gongyang family declare their allegiance to the Danu Empire. I'll also send people to accompany you in plundering food and people!"

Wanyan Hongzhen laughed heartily and said, "Hahaha! Great! From now on, we are a family!"

The next day, the Gongyang Family announced their alliance with the Danu Empire, causing a huge uproar throughout Ningzhou. Many forces that had previously been affiliated with the Gongyang Family were unwilling to join them.

After all, the Danu Empire was once a country that was beaten by the Great Wei Empire. At the height of the Great Wei Empire, the Danu Empire was even torn apart, hiding in the grasslands and deep mountains, and dared not gather together at all.

Later, the Danu Empire sent the most beautiful women on the grassland to the harem of the Wei Empire one after another, starting as humble maids and doing their best to serve the emperor of the Wei Empire. They also sent people to submit and were willing to become vassals of the Wei Empire, paying tribute of countless cattle, sheep, horses and beauties every year. Only then was the country able to be re-established.

During the reign of Emperor Wen of Wei, the Great Wei Empire gradually declined, with various regions becoming increasingly separatist. The Danu Empire frequently attacked the borders and plundered the population. Even so, the people of the Great Wei Empire considered the Danu Empire a vassal state. Naturally, many were reluctant to submit to such barbarians.

The Gongyang family sent a real-life strongman, Gongyang Xuanshi, to lead 3,000 elite members of the Demonic Sheep Army and 2,000 elite cavalry led by Wanyan Hongzhen to suppress the rebellion.

Under the attack of two True Immortal-level masters and five thousand elite soldiers, the counties of Ningzhou were directly captured one after another. The Demonic Sheep Army of the Gongyang Family and Wanyan Hongzhen's cavalry burned, killed, looted, and committed all kinds of atrocities in those counties.

Large amounts of food, money, and people were continuously transported away, leaving only empty cities littered with corpses.

"There's been no news of Xuanhe, Xinyuan, and the others! What's going on in Ninglang County?"

Gongyang Xuanshi looked at the information in his hand, and a gloomy look flashed across his eyes.

"Xuanshi, what are you thinking about? Come on, let's go hunting together! We've caught a lot of pretty girls lately, so we can hold a hunting feast!"

Wanyan Hongzhen walked into the tent and invited with a bright smile.

The so-called hunting feast was when Wanyan Hongzhen and his men would throw captured beauties into a hunting ground and then hunt them with bows and arrows. It was cruel and bloody. However, Wanyan Hongzhen never tired of it. Killing the women of the Wei Empire gave him a perverted pleasure.

Gongyang Xuanshi smiled faintly and said, "General Wanyan! I've found our next target, Ninglang County! Ninglang County is a large county in Ningzhou, with a population of over 100,000, countless fertile fields, and immense prosperity. It's also known as a small prefecture. If you can capture this county, you'll gain more people, food, and wealth."

Wanyan Hongzhen's eyes lit up, and he said urgently, "What are we waiting for? Let's go!"

Wanyan Hongzhen's most important mission in attacking Ningzhou was to plunder food and fodder for his main force. Beyond that, he also sought to plunder more people and wealth to strengthen his own tribe. The stronger his tribe, the higher his status within the Danu Empire.

At Wanyan Hongzhen's command, the five thousand elite cavalrymen galloped towards Ninglang County.

Inside the Huangtian Divine Sect's main camp in Ninglang County. "Captain, spies report that two powerful figures, Gongyang Xuanshi and Wanyan Hongzhen, are leading 5,000 elite troops towards Ninglang County. Barring any unforeseen circumstances, they should arrive within a day or two."

Nangong Hui came to Yang Lie and sent a message.

Xiao Zitong went into seclusion to condense the golden elixir of martial arts. After Yang Lie became her protector, all kinds of affairs fell on the shoulders of Nangong Hui, the beautiful swordsman.

Nangong Hui's management ability was far inferior to Xiao Zitong's, but Xiao Zitong had already established a complete system and trained many officials who were barely useful. This allowed Nangong Hui to barely maintain the management of the Huangtian Divine Sect.

Yang Lie said, "Mudan, you stay here and guard Zitong. I'll go deal with the intruder!"

Li Mudan had secretly condensed the golden elixir again not long ago, and the elixir became the first grade!!!
Li Mudan, who was nibbling at a sweet pancake, nodded slightly and said, "Hmm!"

"Sister Zitong, you must succeed in condensing the golden elixir, and come back soon!"

Nangong Hui looked at the secret room guarded by Li Mudan and thought to herself. She was almost driven crazy by all the tedious affairs these days. She preferred practicing sword skills to dealing with all the tedious affairs.

It is precisely because of this that many powerful people in the human alliance will recruit some adjutants who are not strong enough but have super management skills.

Late at night, the camp of the joint forces of the Gongyang Family and the Danu Empire was brightly lit, and a large number of elite soldiers were patrolling back and forth.

After Yang Lie used the Dark Dragon Transformation, he moved around the camp like a ghost.

Among the elite soldiers on patrol were masters with three Demon Eyes, and even officers with four Demon Eyes, but none of them could find any trace of Yang Lie.

When Yang Lie sneaked in front of the commander's tent, the real magic pupil mirror above the tent suddenly let out an extremely shrill scream.

"It's really difficult to assassinate silently! The Real Demonic Pupil Mirror is really too restraining for assassins like us. The only good news is that there aren't too many of these Real Demonic Pupil Mirrors."

Yang Lie directly activated the Golden Dragon Transformation and used the Holy Dragon Sword Technique. Sharp and unmatched Holy Dragon Sword Qis directly hit the commander's tent, blasting it into pieces.

"Who on earth is this? How dare they come and assassinate me!!"

Accompanied by an angry roar, Wanyan Hongzhen rushed out from the general's tent. At this time, he had turned into a human body with a wolf head. Five magic eyes were opened on his forehead, and there were several wounds on his body. One of the wounds had cut off his ribs.

Just as Wanyan Hongzhen flew out of the general's tent, Gongyang Xuanshi, who was lurking in the darkness like a poisonous snake, directly urged the dark water and turned into a dark water snake and pounced towards Yang Lie.

"Your skills are still too low if you want to launch a sneak attack and assassinate someone!"

Yang Lie used the Holy Dragon Breaking the Sky move directly, and a dragon-shaped sword light containing the double sword intent instantly pierced the Dark Water Mysterious Snake. The terrifying sword light directly cut the Dark Water Mysterious Snake in half, and then cut on Gongyang Xuanshi's head.

Gongyang Xuanshi's head flew up in an instant, a trace of despair flashed across his eyes, and he turned into a corpse and fell to the ground.
