As rumors became more and more, and the changes took place in a day, the people in Xia Fan's territory were stunned. Some timid people began to lose confidence and chose to escape.

Even some officials from the Yuan Lan Yu Kingdom who had surrendered to Xia Fan's side also believed the rumors, began to work passively, or simply fled with their whole family.

Under such circumstances, although Xia Fan was not overwhelmed, he felt quite awkward. Many things could not be resolved by his personal strength. What he could do was to try every means to send people to capture those secret spies from many parties and forces such as the Han Dynasty, the Holy Dragon Kingdom, the Shenmu Kingdom, and then kill them in public. One is to shock the enemy, and the other is to appease the people so that they will not believe rumors.

Xia Fan was of course quite unhappy about Liu Xingchen, the culprit who caused all this, but he did not rashly start a war with him because the current situation is really not optimistic. If he sends troops in a hurry, he will only fall into Liu Xingchen's trap. He is waiting for the opportunity and then gives Liu Xingchen a ruthless counterattack. At the same time, he will not miss this opportunity to fuel the fire, hoping to completely mess up his territory.

The Kingdom of Shenmu, Xuantian Cliff.

This is a steep cliff located in a vast mud, towering into the clouds, with a height of more than 5,000 feet. The cliff walls are rugged, like swords and swords. They are not something that ordinary people can climb up. In addition, there are silt turbid waters that are hundreds of feet deep within a radius of thousands of miles, covered with countless reeds, moss grass, wormwood, pine, willow trees, various vines, as well as various poisonous insects, rats and ants, strange snakes and beasts wandering. These are already very dangerous, and there are also various poisonous flowers, poisonous grasses, and the poisonous miasma formed by falling leaves in the water and rotting, making this place an almost uninhabited Jedi.

However, on this Xuantian Cliff, there are very gorgeous palaces built. Compared with the treacherous and dangerous environments around, this magnificent palace is really conspicuous, giving it a domineering aura of condescending and looking down on all living beings.

This is the Taoist temple of Hetian Dao, and it is also the nest of Hetian Ancestor Hetian.

Because the ancestor Hetian has a weird personality, moody and bloodthirsty nature, even if his disciples annoy him, he will kill him as soon as possible. Therefore, there are not many disciples of Hetiandao. Especially after the Tianyi Shendao, Hehuan Shendao and Poison Crow, which are most respected, died one after another, it became increasingly deserted here.

Today, the temple seemed particularly noisy, because a powerful aura was rising from the temple, causing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth from all directions to gather, the clouds gathered, and the wind was surging.

As waves of fierce and cruel pressure spread, sweeping around, even the birds, beasts, poisonous insects in the swamp were frightened and fled in a hurry. Some of them were shocked by the pressure and directly shattered into pieces of powder.

This is a unique scene when a practitioner breaks through to the master realm, with a kind of arrogant momentum that shocks all things.

"Haha... My ancestor Hetian finally broke through to the Grandmaster realm! From now on, who dares to be arrogant in front of me?!" A wild laughter sounded from the palace, the sound was like thunder, hoarse and unpleasant, but extremely powerful, which made the tiles on the palace shatter a lot. "Xia Fan! Humph, I dare to kill my disciple, and I dared to destroy my divine incarnation, you must die!"

…………………

Qingyu City.

Lan Haolin stood above the city head, watching the siege army hitting the city wall again and again like a surging tide, flashing the light of the city-modifying formation, becoming dimmer and dimmer, and his heart became colder and colder.

He had forgotten that he had defended the city of Qingyu and faced such a fierce attack by the army led by Yu Kongyue. During this period, he had experienced the fear of being about to be broken into the city, and he also felt the joy of reinforcements rushing over to defeat the enemy at the critical moment of life and death. Even not long ago, when he heard the rumor that Xia Fan was too rampant, annoyed the new emperor of the Han Dynasty and was about to be destroyed by the army, he was even more ecstatic. Because he hated Xia Fan very much, he would be extremely happy to hear even the little news that he was going to be unlucky.

But soon he couldn't be happy, because it was at that time that Yu Kongyue began to launch endless attacks on Qingyu City as if she was going crazy. Such an attack made the defenders of Qingyu City almost unable to bear it.

You should know that the army under Yu Kongyue's command is not an ordinary army. Even though many ordinary soldiers with weak strength were added later when they expanded in large quantities, there were still quite a lot of elite soldiers who had truly experienced many fierce battles, and their strength was generally not low, at least they were in the foundation building realm.

For practitioners, the strength of the Foundation Building Realm is not very high, but for ordinary big-headed soldiers, this is not very bad, especially for people in the Qi-induced realm, who can be an ordinary army with the ten-man commander, Yukongyue, the army with the vast majority of soldiers, is definitely the elite, and at least the strength is higher.

Because of this, Yukongyue wanted to rely on the number of people to break the city by force when she first attacked the city. Later, she realized that the casualties were too serious, so she changed her method and began to order the army to form a military formation to repeatedly impact Qingyu City.

This process is not only about siegeing the city, but also about training troops. Through such almost cruel battles, we will hone the courage and courage of the soldiers in the military formation and eventually nurture the most precious military soul of the army.

As a result, although there were still many casualties, within the range that Yu Kongyue could accept, the overall strength of her troops was greatly improved after being subjected to such fierce fighting training.

Whether it was Lan Haolin or the reinforcements sent by the Shenmu Kingdom, they could actually see that Yu Kongyue did this by using them as whetstones to train soldiers, but they could only watch but had no choice but to go crazy. The reason was very simple. They did not have the advantage in terms of numbers, and they were defending the ground, and they could rely on Qingyu City. This was their advantage, which also restricted their actions, leaving them with no choice or courage to open the city gate to fight Yu Kongyue's army head-on.

Firstly, because Qingyu City was built on Qingyu Mountain after all, and the terrain was dangerous, it was not enough to allow thousands of troops to spread out to field battles. This means that even if Lan Haolin and others were going out of the city to fight Yu Kongyue's army, they were all quite tired.

Under such circumstances, no one can guarantee whether they will be defeated by Yu Kongyue's army before they can even fight.

It is true that the reinforcements from the Kingdom of Shenmu are all elite, but no matter how elite they are, they cannot be tireless and always have high morale. Especially after experiencing the endless tragic siege battles before, even the iron man will be tired. Until now, they can still stand on the top of the city to deal with the enemy's attacks, and in fact they are worthy of their title of elite.

"Is my king's tyranny going to end like this?" Lan Haolin looked at the neatly arranged and amazingly powerful military formation under the city, and his frustration and despair became stronger and stronger.

He could see that these military formations had made complete progress compared to before, and even the evil spirits surged above the military formation, which seemed to be a little bit condensing the military spirit. This shocked and jealous, and was quite helpless.

His men also had such an army at the beginning, but unfortunately they were destroyed by Xia Fan. Since then, his army has become less and less, and the bigger it is, and until now, they are forced to stand in this small Qingyu City.

"Xia Fan, you deserve to die!" Thinking of Xia Fan, the culprit who caused all this, Lan Haolin's gaze showed unprecedented hatred. He exerted his right hand and actually shattered a piece of bluestone on the top of the city.

"Buzz..." At this moment, Lan Haolin suddenly felt a magic weapon in his arms vibrate, and light burst out from it.

This is a magic weapon specially refined for remote transmission. It was originally possible to contact the ancestor Hetian, but later, after the Hehuan Taoist, the magic weapon was no longer useful after the poisonous crow died, because Lan Haolin called the nominal master of the ancestor Hetian several times to ask him to help him, but he never got a response.

"Could..." When I picked up this magic weapon, Lan Haolin was slightly stunned, then became excited, sent his magic power into it and connected it, and said: "Master, you finally have an echo..."

"Don't panic. I have been practicing in seclusion some time ago. Now I have broken through to the Grandmaster realm. Xia Fan can kill me at will. With the help of this ancestor, the restoration of the country is even more trivial. Where are you now, I will go to see you." The Grandmaster Hetian came over with a bit of a arrogant laugh. There was a very stance that the Grandmaster realm was in power and no one could beat in the world.

"Xia Fan..." Lan Haolin originally wanted to say that Xia Fan's strength has increased sharply recently. He heard that he had killed two powerful masters. He was not the kind of soft persimmon you could pinch. But when he said that he swallowed it, he said, "I am in Qingyu City, fighting fiercely with Xia Fan's army. I am waiting for the arrival of the National Master to help me."

"Wait, I will arrive soon." At this point, the light on the magic weapon subsided, and there was no more voice from the ancestor Hetian.

"Master Realm! I wonder if it's OK to face that guy Xia Fan?!" Lan Haolin put away the magic weapon and looked into the distance, but he really didn't have much confidence in the ancestor Hetian.

Although he was trapped in Qingyu City, he could still hear some news occasionally, so he knew that Xia Fan had shined in the battle between the three religions and four sects, and also knew that he had a fierce battle with the Grandmaster Realm powerhouse not long ago in the Golden Light City of the Holy Dragon Kingdom and his own Baishi City. Later, the two Grandmaster Realm powerhouses were gone and they must have died at his hands.
