To the north of Tongtian Gorge, beyond the mountains, there is a plateau covered with a sea of snow.
The Eight Wastelands, a vast wilderness, was once a gathering place for demons.
However, the climate of the Eight Wastelands is very harsh.
It is covered with thick snow for more than seven out of twelve months a year, so it is the season for grazing and planting.
No more than five months at most, but such a desolate plateau provides the main supplies for the hundreds of thousands of demon troops in Tongtian Gorge year after year.
Hundreds of years ago, the Demon King and the Holy Master led most of the Demon Clan's population and army to leave the Eight Wastelands, leaving only one family in the Demon Clan to guard the Eight Wastelands, which was the Zhongnan Family, a famous family in the entire Demon Clan. , Lian Zhong, Lian Hai, Bi Bing and other demon masters came from the Zhongnan family.
For hundreds of years, the Zhongnan family has made an indispensable contribution to the demon clan.
At this time, the Eight Wastelands were covered with ice and snow, and there was no one in sight from a distance.
Only a cavalry on the snowy plains galloped towards the castle in the distance.
Zhongnan City is the fiefdom of the Zhongnan Family.
The city is not big, but there are also 200,000 demons settled there.
The cavalry team gallops into the city and goes straight to the city lord's palace.
At the front of the queue is a young high-level demon with a sword-browed starry eye. , with a light red sword hanging on his waist, and a clear and proud look on his eyebrows.
Shen Baichuan, the son of Shen Xiang, the head of the Zhongnan family, has already entered the realm of the six-star demon sect at a young age.
He is second only to Qianfeng in cultivation among the younger generation of the entire demon clan.
Moreover, Shen Baichuan is familiar with military books and is known as civil and military.
Shuangquan was highly regarded by the Demon Emperor and Saint Master back then.
If he hadn't been slightly inferior to Qianfeng in the competition, he might have been the first marshal of the Demon clan.
The mansion was empty and very cold.
The white-bearded Shen Xiang sat on the stone bench in the courtyard, sipping tea and saying without looking back: "Baichuan, are you okay?"
Shen Baichuan looked grim and saluted: "Father, do we have to wait like this forever?"
"What do you mean by waiting?"
"Father, can't you see it yet?"
Shen Baichuan's eyes were cold: "In the battle of Tongtian Province, our God Clan has been completely defeated.
Qianfeng's command was incompetent, and Lin Muyu killed so many warriors of our race while waiting for work.
Now the military strength of the God Clan in Tongtian Gorge has been reduced.
It’s only half of what it was six months ago.
Our Zhongnan family is frugal in food and clothing.
Is it just for them to spend so much money?”
"Shut up" Shen Xiang stood up, with a stern look in his eyes, and said: "His Majesty the God Emperor makes his own decisions, you have no right to speak."
"Father" Shen Baichuan held up his fists, with a cloak behind him, and said with determination in his eyes: "If we continue, we will suffer chaos.
If we continue, I am afraid that the ten thousand-year-old foundation of our Zhongnan family will be destroyed by the God Emperor."
Your Majesty's delay has been exhausted over time.
Could it be that my father wants to be the sinner of the Zhongnan family?"
"Baichuan, why are you speaking so presumptuously today?"
Shen Xiang's eyes were filled with coldness.
Shen Baichuan immediately knelt down on his knees, his body trembling and said: "Because my child has just visited the cities under his jurisdiction.
There are people of the God race who are freezing to death and starving to death everywhere, especially in Liucheng, where almost half of the city's people are...
They were starved to death, the people were displaced, and the plague was widespread, but the city of God asked us to provide three times the number of war horses, food, and weapons.
If my father really allowed them, I'm afraid the Zhongnan family would be doomed."
Shen Xiang squinted his eyes and asked, "What do you want to do?"
Shen Baichuan gritted his teeth: "I hope my father will let me go to Tongtian Gorge.
I want to meet with His Majesty in person and ask His Majesty to change the overall strategy and defend Tongtian Gorge.
This will only make our God Clan lose again and again.
Since Qianfeng married His Highness Jing Since then, I have been pampered and am no longer as wise as before.

If Qianfeng continues to control the army of the gods, I am afraid it will lead to the annihilation of the clan."
"Then what do you think the gods should do to defend themselves against the enemy for now?"
"The Imperial Army's magic crystal cannon is very powerful.
It has a long firing distance and high power.
Even if it is not accurate enough, it is still very terrifying.
It is enough to dominate the entire battlefield.
However, the energy of the sky in Tongtianxia is getting worse day by day.
As long as the Imperial Army gathers enough The magic crystal cannon can blow open the sky , adopt the tactics of advancement and enter Tongtian Gorge step by step.
The narrow terrain of Tongtian Gorge is not conducive to large group operations, and it is extremely difficult to use roundabout tactics.
Once humans are allowed to transport the magic crystal cannons, Tongtian Gorge will become the warriors of hundreds of thousands of descendants of our God Clan.
So the burial place."
Shen Baichuan took a deep breath, with wisdom in his eyes, and said: "If I were to lead the army, I would order the army of gods to withdraw from Tongtian Gorge, abandon the city of gods, enter the Eight Wastelands, use retreat as advance, and disperse the armored demon's troops Kailai, connect with the Northern Desert tribes from the north, form an alliance with them, and kill the northern tribes in the Yunzhong Province of the empire.
Fang Damen, caught the imperial army off guard from the plains.
As long as Yunzhong Province is in hand, we will have the capital to continue competing with humans.
Father, it is said that water has no shape and soldiers have no shape.
If we are trapped in Tongtian Gorge, we are destined to have no choice but to fight.
It will lead to destruction, the child said this, please father to judge the situation."
Shen Xiang sat on the stone bench again.
The cold bench made his butt feel chilly.
After a while, Shen Xiang said: "Why do you think His Majesty the God Emperor will appreciate you and make you a commander?"
"because" Shen Baichuan raised the corner of his mouth and said with a smile: "Because the Zhongnan Family has one hundred thousand cavalry in the Eight Wastelands, and these one hundred thousand cavalry can protect His Majesty.
If Your Majesty does not retreat into the Eight Wastelands, then our one hundred thousand cavalry will not be able to do anything for you."
His Majesty provides such protection."
Shen Xiang was startled: "Baichuan, what do you mean?"
"Haier's meaning is very clear.
If Fengyuan can be the emperor of the gods, Shen Xiang can also be the emperor of the gods.
If Fengyuan insists on having his own way, there will be no way for him to continue to be the emperor."
"you" Shen Xiang pondered for a long time, waved his hand and said, "I'm tired and I'm going to take a nap.
Baichuan, you can make your own decisions on all matters.
This is the golden seal of the Zhongnan Family, and you must use it properly."
With that said, Shen Xiang stood up and walked tremblingly to his room.
Two graceful maids hurriedly greeted him.
Shen Baichuan looked at the small and exquisite gold seal on the stone table.
This gold seal was the symbol of the highest power of the entire Zhongnan family.
It was the tiger talisman that mobilized one hundred thousand cavalry.
Immediately, Shen Baichuan's heart beat violently.
Get up, you are so close to the supreme power, isn't this the day you have dreamed of?
His palms covered the golden seal armrest, and even the golden seal still retained Shen Xiang's body temperature.
"Father, just watch, I will definitely revive the entire divine race."
A hundred miles west of Lanyan City, a quaint city gate stands between the plains and the endless forests within the empire.
The Demon-Suppressing Pass is a pass with a long history.
It is the existence of this Demon-Suppressing Pass that makes millions of demons The tribe will no longer invade eastward, ensuring the long-term peace of Lanyan City.
During the four years that Tang Xiaoxi slept in Tongtian Gorge, the demon clan repeatedly harassed the pass, so much so that Zetian Palace ordered to increase the number of troops to 150,000 in Zhenxihou Tangzhen, which suppressed the demon pass.
At the same time, the demon pass was expanded again and became a A huge city gate that can accommodate 150,000 troops.
To the east of the pass, a man and a woman came side by side from a distance, not walking fast, but not too slow either.

"Sir, look, someone is coming over there."
A young soldier stood up and pointed into the distance.
Under the battlement, the middle-aged minister who was drowsy while holding the iron gun rubbed his eyes, glanced outside the wall, frowned, and said: "It's strange, the birds in the Demon Suppression Pass don't poop, and the Western Region eats people.
Who would come to the Demon Clan that doesn't spit out bones?
Are they poachers who want to hunt spiritual beasts in the endless forest?"
"It doesn't look like it, sir.
The leather robes the two of them are wearing seem to have the purple yin flower emblem of the Qin family."
"ah" Shi Chang squinted his eyes and took a closer look, and couldn't help but trembled: "Oh my god, that man is wearing three golden stars and a royal robe.
Could he be one of the three kings?"
"My lord, that woman is wearing a princess robe.
I saw Princess Tang Wei in Lanyan City, and she was dressed like this."
"That must be His Royal Highness King Qin and Princess Tang Xiaoxi."
"Ah, no, is it His Highness King Qin who has become a god?"
At this time, Lin Muyu and Tang Xiaoxi had arrived at the city.
The two jumped up and flew over the city easily.
Tang Xiaoxi looked at a group of stunned imperial soldiers who didn't know whether to fire arrows or not, and said with a smile: "Stop standing there stupidly.
Go and inform Lord Tangzhen that Tang Xiaoxi and Lin Muyu are here."
"Yes, yes."
A captain of ten thousand men was so flattered that he rolled over and went to Xiaguan.
Not long after, a warrior wearing a silver shirt came galloping down the cold stone steps.
It was Tang Zhen.
As soon as he saw Lin Muyu and Tang Xiaoxi in the air, Tang Zhen immediately trembled, knelt down on one knee and clasped his fists: "Subordinate Tang Town, see His Royal Highness the King of Qin, see Princess Xi" "No need to be formal."
Tang Xiaoxi floated down, held up Tang Zhen's arms, and said with a smile: "You have worked hard to guard the Demon Town Pass for so many years."
"It's not hard."
Tang Zhen was a little bitter and said: "Princess Xi, you are finally back.
Because Linghuyan couldn't see Princess Xi for too long, he thought that the empire had harmed you, Princess Xi, so he repeatedly violated the rule.
In the past few years, Linghuyan The war in Yaoguan continued, and more than 20,000 soldiers died for the country."
Tang Xiaoxi was startled and said softly: "Yes, I understand.
In the afternoon, Mu Mu and I will go to the Endless Forest to meet Linghu Yan.
Don't worry, the demon clan will no longer disturb the Demon Suppression Pass."
"Thank you, Princess Xi" Tang Zhen burst into tears of gratitude and said: "At noon, I will host a banquet in the pass to entertain His Highness and the Princess.
Although Zhenyao Pass is extremely poor, there are still some game dishes that can be eaten with wine."
Tang Xiaoxi smiled: "Well, that's fine, then you can send an envoy to hold the Tang Sect Iron Order as a token to meet Linghu Yan in the Endless Forest, and let her come to Yaozhen Pass to make amends."
"Yes" Tang Zhen was overjoyed
