Invasion Myth: Starting with the Schoolteacher

Chapter 445 Full of Schemes
Back in the clouds above Qiantang, Xu Xuan was giving a report to the students' parents.

"Xiao Qing has been smart since she was a child, especially in tactics, where she has a unique talent."

"What just appeared to be a battle between Li Yingqi and the eight-legged demon actually demonstrated a great deal of skill."

"Show weakness to the enemy, then provoke them and disrupt them; one steady move after another."

"I suggest you relax, after all, we..."

Xu Xuan kept rambling on and on, and Bai Suzhen listened quite attentively.

It was the first time she had seen her younger sister dressed in armor, looking majestic and awe-inspiring, just like a limited-edition miniature figurine.

Although I can't understand the course of the war, I don't understand why a small monster that can be blown away with a breath would need to employ tactics.

But being praised is definitely a good thing.

At this moment, Xu Xuan asked a question that raised a question.

“I saw a glimmer of light fly out of the Bawang Temple. It seems to be a remnant of the divine way. Is everything alright?”

Bai Suzhen said she was fine.

It's normal for some remnants to remain after the collapse of the divine path. Taihu Lake also left behind reed seeds, which can be considered a form of recognition of the water area.

The idea that heaven and earth possess spirits is not just a saying; in ancient times, water deities conquered and ruled rivers, lakes, and seas in this way.

Xiaoqing is currently on the path to becoming the Water Lord of Taihu Lake. If she succeeds, her cultivation will surely advance by leaps and bounds.

Of course, in ancient times, one would first achieve great divine power, suppress a water system, and then become a water lord.

My younger sister also benefited from the collapse of the divine order.

Unfortunately, the legends surrounding Taihu Lake are not powerful or ancient enough, and the lake's area is not large enough.

However, if they continue to expand based on this foundation, they will surely achieve great things in an era where immortals and gods have vanished.

Xu Xuan understood; it meant that Xiao Qing's upgrade system had been activated.

That's the advantage of having a powerful backer.

For the next period of time, Xu Xuan maintained a routine of attending classes during the day and watching matches at night.

The Taihu Lake basin, however, suffered a major disaster.

Ten days later, the water god of Caohu Lake looked despairing.

"You, you monsters, where did you come from! How can you have no manners at all!"

"If you've got the guts, let's have a real fight!" "Do you dare let me go back, put on my armor, and fight again!"

The blue carp spirits, now surrounded, were dumbfounded.

These past few days, a fortune teller contacted me saying that several surrounding villages want to worship the Great King in exchange for good weather and abundant harvests, and will also offer fruits and incense every year.

It was overjoyed by this unexpected windfall.

The Shili Caohu Lake, crisscrossed by waterways, was once a vital waterway for grain transport. Fan Li opened this waterway during his campaign against Wu, hence the name Caohu, perhaps referring to its role in facilitating grain transport.

Although it is complex, the basin is not large. It is a small, marginal area where one can make a living independently.

Although Taihu Lake seems to have been somewhat turbulent recently.
Who would have thought that when he brought dozens of lesser demons to the shore to manifest their power, he would be surrounded?!

The dozen or so villagers, all of whom were rogue cultivators of the human race, disappeared from the spot with a shout and a leap.

The temple of the Water God was surrounded by array formations, and the lesser demons under his command were all killed before they could even react.

What's even more terrifying is that there are hundreds of monsters standing on the outer perimeter, their weapons and swords creating a terrifying sight.

They could only try to provoke each other with words, hoping to spur on a glimmer of hope.

Unfortunately, the Baoan Hall operates according to its own rules and regulations.

"Hey, you little fish demon, you don't know the will of Heaven, you dare to oppress the people and bewitch the human race's incense offerings."

"To act perversely is intolerable to Heaven and Earth."

"Watch me, Li Yingqi, take you down!"

It was right to make her the vanguard commander. She had just recovered from the injuries of the last battle and immediately followed up with the next one.

The story begins with the Yue Maiden Sword, which evolves across the southern lands, telling the tale of a female knight-errant.

Water vapor, wind, leaves—everything in nature was infused with sword energy, truly possessing a divinely bestowed quality. Little Green King, holding the fort, watched in complete silence.

My disciple... my disciple, if you ever encounter an enemy in the future, you must announce my name!

My name is Li Yingqi, and I am a disciple of Xiaoqing the Great King.

Ah ha ha ha ha ha
Xu Xuan, standing on the cloud, nodded slightly, feigning composure, as if it were expected, but in reality, he was completely bewildered.

Are we trying to reverse-engineer the original Yue Nu Sword?

The most outstanding of the Three Heroes of Shu Mountain shouldn't have such strong aptitude. Did he evolve?
Unlike the two leaders, Bai Suzhen, standing to the side, didn't put on airs and earnestly expressed her appreciation for Li Yingqi. After all, he was her sister's disciple, and she had some familial ties with him.

"His swordsmanship talent is very strong, stronger than Xiaoqing's, and stronger than yours."

Xu Xuan, who never lets words fall to the ground, remained silent. "Thank you for emphasizing this."

"Our sect has a book called 'The Great Zhou Celestial Star Sword,' which emphasizes using the sword to control qi and suppress the eight directions and six realms. A single person can set up the Star Sword Formation by wielding the sword."

"It requires a high level of comprehension in swordsmanship; you can give it to her for reference."

The big shots' preferences are so simple and unpretentious: they just dump gold coins.

Master Xu was naturally overjoyed by this good news, and repeatedly praised Miss Bai for her noble character and care for the younger generation.

There's not much to say about the battle that followed.

An unprepared, unarmed, and abjectly transformed demon who wasn't in the water naturally fought to a standstill when faced with a fully armed and powerful little killer.

This time, there was no need for the Gui Water Yin Thunder to launch a sneak attack; the battle had already reached this point.

The result was a lose-lose situation.

Li Yingqi, covered in blood, was sent flying dozens of feet away and lost consciousness, while the Qingyu spirit stood in despair and was killed by Yu Bai's sneak attack.

Next, the demon soldiers of Taihu Lake swept through the twenty-two waterways, and the Caohu Lake was now calm.

A piece of glass fell into Xiaoqing's palm from the crisscrossing waterways, obtained without any effort.

"Then things will get tough."

Xu Xuan sighed. Two lakes had already been captured, and even the dumbest person would realize what was happening.

Such extraordinary military tactics can be used once or twice, but not three times.

Ten days later, in the middle of the hundred streams of Jingxi.

It stretches forty li and connects to the lake, streams, and canals.

The hundred rivers are the heart, and the Zhenze Lake is the belly. This means that the meridians are interconnected.

The demon king of this place is also a creature that developed intelligence early on, known as the Mud Dragon. Although his magical power is not strong, he has many tricks up his sleeve.

The vanguard's sneak attack tactic was seen through by the enemy, and he was defeated in less than an incense stick's time due to the huge difference in their cultivation levels.

In a moment of crisis, the tortoise naturally chose to ambush and kill its opponent, but it was still exposed and ended up in a sorry state.

Forced to retreat, Yu Bai joined forces with the two demons and fought for hundreds of rounds, but still could not win.

"Even the Golden Dragon failed to subdue me back then, and you two pieces of trash dare to do it?"

The words were so harsh that the two generals became so angry that they abandoned all sense of shame.

He directly ordered hundreds of demon soldiers to be sent forward in an attempt to gain the upper hand, but the demon took advantage of the terrain to roam around and wage guerrilla warfare, and the battle was about to deteriorate.

The idea of ​​"troops marching south of the Yangtze River" is quickly becoming a joke.

It was Xiaoqing who stepped in at the crucial moment.

They immediately called for reinforcements.

The troublesome thing about this demon is not her strength, but her cunning. All her various fighting techniques are useless.

Therefore, a ferocious demon king is needed to suppress this place.

A sword pierces the clouds, tearing through the night sky.

They shook Xu Xuan right down from the audience seats in the clouds.
