Grain of Ears is approaching, the army of Evilman Valley left Kunlun and headed south to Baling County.

It has been a long time since Ye Youqi was taken away by Shen Yun in Heilongma, and he hasn't seen these Jiangnan scenery for a long time.

Qutang Gorge has beautiful mountains and clear waters, and the river flows in spring. Looking down from the trestle bridge of Baidi City, everything seems to be covered with a layer of tulle, and the breath carries the unique humid atmosphere of the south.

"It's been so long since I've been out of Kunlun, I almost forgot that summer in this world is a bit sultry." Ye Youqi rode on the horse and smiled at Yang Yi, "I remember when we were in Wanhua Valley, when summer came, you I always avoid practicing swords.”

"I've forgotten about the past." Yang Yi glanced at him, "My heart is stiff now, my blood is cold, and it doesn't matter if I'm hot or not. Brother, if you're hot, you might as well get closer to me. Cool off."

Ye Youqi: "..."

I don't know if it's an illusion, he thinks that Yang Yi looks at him a little strangely recently, but there is nothing unusual about getting along with each other, and nothing happened recently, which makes people completely confused.

"Master Shaogu." The person who explored the road in front returned to report, "The stronghold of the Haoqi League has been heavily guarded, and I think it has been prepared."

"We will stop at Bukongguan tonight." Ye Youqi reined in the reins and asked, "Who is the guard of Baling?"

"I heard it's a female general surnamed Bai."

Ye Youqi secretly heaved a sigh of relief when he didn't hear the familiar surname: "Let's be stationed."

That night, tens of thousands of Evilren Valley troops were stationed at the stronghold of Qutang Gorge, which was only more than a hundred kilometers away from the defensive city of Baling County of the Haoqi League.

The scarlet king's flag with the word "leaf" on it rose in the wind, and the war was about to break out.

"The Haoqi situation is critical now. I only hope that General Yang can guard Baling, otherwise the Valley of the Wicked will point directly at Wuwang City." On this day's routine mountain tour, Bai Ying and Liao Yungui rode their horses slowly and sighed, "Leader Qi It seems that the health is not very good recently, and the masters of all the star altars of Haoqi are not very peaceful, it is simply internal and external troubles."

"Mr. Qi's physical condition has always been a secret. It's also very strange why it leaked." Liao Yungui pondered, "Does General Bai know something about it?"

"It would be great if I knew." Baiying sighed, "I heard that Song Shengshou had been watching over the leader's heart disease all the time. As a result, Song Shengshou was trapped in southern Xinjiang for a while, and the leader's old illness relapsed. I had no choice but to look for it. The doctors outside came to see, in order not to let the news out, they killed those doctors, but unexpectedly it was spread out, it is simply unimaginable."

Liao Yungui frowned: "It's really not a gentleman's act to kill innocent people in order to block the news."

Bai Ying shook her head, expressing that it was not good to comment on this matter: "Daoist Liao, speaking of it..."

A carrier pigeon flew over, Bai Ying raised her hand to catch the pigeon, took out a piece of letter paper from the letter box, scanned it, and said with a sigh of relief: "I thought Shen Yun would come to attack in person, but I didn't expect that the one who led the army to attack Baling was the Valley of the Wicked." Master Shaogu, it seems that we will surely win this battle."

"Master Shaogu?" Liao Yungui's expression changed, "Has Baling handed over now?"

"Probably not yet, but it's coming soon." Bai Ying didn't pay attention to the change in Liao Yungui's expression, and Cheng Zhu said with a smile, "Someone in the guards of Master Shaogu betrayed the news to Hao Qi, and General Yang and the others should do the same. I have received the attack plan for the Valley of the Wicked. General Yang has experienced many battles, so he must have no problem dealing with a fledgling young valley owner."

"..." Liao Yungui turned his horse's head, "General Bai, Liao has something important to do, please stay with me!"

Leading troops in battle, inexperienced people often find it easy on paper, but before the real battle, they are rarely not nervous.

Yang Yi and Ye Chunshen under Ye Youqi's subordinates were not weak in terms of martial arts alone, but neither of them had any experience in battle.As for Ye Youqi himself, he had read a lot of military books, but it was the first time he had seen real swords and spears in battle.

His well-trained Wind and Leopard Guards have a high average force value, and it is still unknown how they will perform on the battlefield.

The guard of the Haoqi League is said to be a female general from the Tiance Mansion. Ye Youqi didn't dare to trust him, so he led his troops outside the city gate to test for two days.

That night, Ye Youqi called all the people together for a meeting, tapped on the map and said: "One go at a time and then fail three times. We pretended to attack for two days in a row, which must have exhausted part of their vigilance. Tomorrow we will attack." Come on for real."

"Haoqi has two strongholds in Baling. Among them, Panlongwu is separated by the river, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack. The other is Zhuluping, which is flat and has a large rapeseed field outside the city, which is suitable for hiding."

"Yang Yi leads a team, Miss San leads a team, you take a detour to attack Zhuluping from behind, I continue to lead people to call out from outside Panlongwu City, let them think that we are just a test like the previous two days." Youqi scratched Ayao's chin and arranged, "If you find an opportunity, send a signal flare to indicate that we will attack in one fell swoop with a three-pronged approach!"

Everyone bowed their hands and took orders: "Listen to Master Shaogu!"

"After discussing for so long, you must be hungry." Bai Xi pushed open the door, and came in with snacks and tea, "I can't help you much, so I made some food. Let's fill our stomachs."

Ye Youqi smiled and said, "You came just in time, everyone should rest."

"Miss Bai is gentle and virtuous, she can be regarded as Master Shaogu's confidant." Some guards laughed while eating, but Yang Yi on the other side glanced at him expressionlessly, he shivered for no reason, and quickly lowered his head to eat I dare not speak anymore.

Ye Chunshen is usually a person with no eyesight, so he also booed: "In my opinion, Miss Bai is also pretty good, better than that little girl from Mingjiao. Don't let her down sometime."

Bai Xi's face was flushed by their disturbance, and she quickly ran away with her skirt in hand.

Ye Youqi was very embarrassed: "Don't talk nonsense, it will ruin the reputation of the girl's family."

Everyone laughed, and stopped making fun of him. After eating, they dispersed and began to prepare for the next day's attack.

Yang Yi and the others had all dispersed, so they came over and bent over to get closer, sniffed, and said, "The smell of flower cakes is not good, senior brother is still suitable for... Grape Fragrance."

He left after talking nonsensically, leaving Ye Youqi holding half of the flower cake in his hand, either eating it or letting it go.

The key point Yang Yi's words reminded him of the dream not long ago. In the dream, Liao Yungui didn't have the usual etiquette at all, and even teased him that "although Jin Poluo is good, it's not as good as the fragrance on the lips of a beautiful woman", knowing that this kind of profanity- Master doesn't know how to talk about love, but in the dream

Ye Youqi rubbed his burning ears and sighed, he really... misses Master a little bit.

"Master Shaogu, my subordinates always feel that Haoqi is a bit strange today." Outside Panlongwu City, Ye Youqi led his troops to press down on the border. He didn't want to think that there were only a few teams of guards on the Haoqi city wall, and he didn't even send troops out of the city to demonstrate like the previous two days. He didn't pay attention to the approaching Wicked Valley army.

"...It's really strange." Ye Youqi didn't expect Haoqi to react like this. He consciously planned carefully, but suddenly encountered changes, and he always felt a little uneasy in his heart, "I don't know if Yang Yi's side is going well..."

"Report!—" A hoarse shout suddenly came from behind the team, and an infantryman rolled bloodied half his body in front of Ye Youqi's horse, and said in panic, "Master Shaogu! General Yang's side is ambushed!"

"What..." Ye Youqi's heart skipped a beat. At that moment, he didn't have time to think about why Haoqi seemed to know his own arrangements, and he heard the Panlongwu city gate burst open, and the Haoqi army rushed out like a tide. Shouting loudly: "Kill!!!!"

When Liao Yungui rushed to Zhuluping, Baling County, he saw Yang Zi counting the troops with a gloomy face.

He was worried in his heart, but he couldn't show it on his face. He could only lead the horse and greet him: "General Yang."

"Yungui?" Yang Zi asked in surprise, "Why are you here?"

"..." Liao Yungui saw that there was no one around, so he simply lowered his voice and told the truth, "I heard that the leader of the Evil Man Valley... has a date."

Yang Zi lowered his eyes and was quiet for a while, then said: "Yes, but I didn't fight him. The one stationed at Panlongwu is my lieutenant general. According to the battle report, the Evilren Valley army suffered heavy casualties and retreated back to Qutang Gorge, but they didn't fight. I haven't found any trace of the Shaogu owner of the Evil Man's Valley, and there will be... it should be fine."

Liao Yungui didn't know what to answer, so he could only nod silently.

"Yungui, I received news yesterday that Evilman Valley plans to attack Zhuluping." Yang Zi suddenly said, his tone seemed a little trembling, "I led people to ambush outside Zhuluping. coming……"

"What?" Liao Yungui saw her look extremely painful, and his heart skipped a beat, "What's wrong?"

"I really never expected... Yang Yi is the leader of the sneak attack team..." Yang Zi raised his hand to cover his eyes, "My Yang family has guarded the country for a hundred years, and helped justice for the spirit of arrogance. In this generation, there is actually... an unworthy descendant who is loyal to the Valley of the Wicked..."

"I really hate that when I was in Kunlun, I didn't kill him with my own hands!"

Liao Yungui was extremely surprised. He hadn't heard anything about Yang Yi for a while. Song Ziyu sent a letter saying that he had gone looking for him, so he never cared about it. He didn't expect to hear about the two apprentices again today. Have you become a member of the Valley of the Wicked?

Moreover, what is going on with the Kunlun mentioned by Yang Zi?

"General! We have captured a female general from the Valley of the Wicked! General, do you want to go and have a look?" The guards in the army rushed over and knelt down in front of Yang Zi, "I've already been escorted to the city!"

"Let's go." Yang Zi raised his head, forcing back the tears that had just overflowed, "Yun Gui, forgive me."

"General Yang, please."

Watching Yang Zi leave, Liao Yungui thought for a moment, but he couldn't hold his breath and turned around to leave the city gate.

——Sometimes his whereabouts are unknown, he will go to Qutang Gorge to have a look...to be at ease.

The defeat came so unexpectedly that when Ye Youqi led his people back, he was in a daze—what went wrong?How could he be so clever with the timing of the Haoqi League? Could it be that...a spy came out on his side?

Their team was dispersed by the arrogance. At this moment, Ye Youqi only had three guards of the wind leopard left. They escaped from the border of Baling County in a panic and came to the edge of a high cliff and dense forest at the junction of Qutang Gorge and Baling.

Ye Youqi was so full of thoughts that when someone pushed him hard, he didn't react and rolled off the edge of the cliff.

This is extremely sudden, no matter how fast the reaction is, there is no way to use it, and there is no way to jump out of thin air.In desperation, he had no choice but to pull out his sword and stab it hard at the mountain wall, hoping to stabilize his figure, but he didn't expect that the light sword couldn't withstand the violent scraping and broke.

At this time, he was not far from the bottom of the cliff, even though the light sword was broken, it finally blocked the fall, so Ye Youqi was lucky enough to recover his life.But even so, he fell heavily, and his right leg hit the rock, and suddenly he was in severe pain, unable to move at all.

"Master Shaogu!" Someone came running from afar, Ye Youqi took a closer look, and it turned out to be Baixi.

"How do you...know I'm here?" Ye Youqi breathed a sigh of relief. Anyway, he is in a bad situation at this time, and he feels relieved to meet him. I can't move right now..."

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly felt a cold in his stomach.

"Master Shaogu thinks that there is still life to go back to Bukong Pass?" Bai Xi let go of the hand holding the dagger, stood up and said, "Originally, I just sneaked into your side by the order of my righteous father, but I didn't expect you to kill me first." He... is a man and a child, the enmity between parents is irreconcilable, Baixi and all the brothers have endured until now, and finally they can take your life to comfort the spirit of foster father!"

The pain in the legs and the pain in the waist and abdomen, Ye Youqi couldn't tell which was more painful, or in other words, the massive blood loss made him feel a little dull, and the pain was not obvious.

"Heh... I only think of saving people as doing good deeds. I don't want... to raise wolves by my side..." Ye You looked forward to the cold face of the woman, the reason for the defeat, and the reason for being pushed off the cliff. The transparency became clear, and he smiled wryly, "Your adoptive father... is Jiang Lin? You were the one who revealed the news to the Haoqi League...?"

"That's right." Bai Xi's sneering voice gradually became blurred, she was still talking, but Ye Youqi couldn't hear clearly.Although he tried to hold on, he was exhausted and passed out.
