He made up his mind.
“Leave the wind barbarian race to me. Within three days, I will make sure that they will not be able to step into the barren County battlefield.”
“Are you serious?” The Marquis of Eastern desolation was serious.
“Yes,” Xiao ran nodded.
“You have to think this through. If you can hold off the wind barbarian race for three days, I promise you that without the help of the wind barbarian Army, the Zhou nation will lose this war without a doubt! If you can’t do it, don’t be arrogant. I’ll reorganize the troops and find an opportunity to defeat the Zhou Army and take down Zhou Tianqi!”
“If I don’t have a certain amount of confidence, I won’t make such a promise to you! This battle was related to the fate of great Xia. If they were defeated, it would lead to a series of consequences. With Yingzhou as the center, the surrounding states would all fall into the hands of Zhou. Even the other borders will be at war. You know it, I know it too!” Xiao ran said solemnly.
“Good! I believe you. ” The Marquis of the eastern wilderness said.
“If you can stall the wind barbarians for three days, you will be the first to make a contribution after the war. I will report this to the Imperial court and ask for your merits.”
“Send your trusted men to take over the ice giant clan. When to use them, when to go on stage, you decide.” Xiao ran said.
The sky was about to turn dark.
“After dark, I have to go to Barren County to investigate some things,” Wang Yao said.
“The war will start after dark. Once the war breaks out, the barren County will become a place of trouble. You must be careful!” The Marquis of Eastern desolation instructed.
“Regardless of whether you can get any information, you must rush to the broken bridge before dawn and guard it.”
“Alright!” Xiao ran agreed.
He turned around and walked out.
“If things can’t be done, put your own safety first! Even if the sky falls, I’ll be there to hold it up. ” The Marquis of Eastern desolation reminded.
“Trust me!” Xiao ran didn’t even turn his head.
They left the tent.
The sky was already dark.
The night was very dark, so dark that one couldn’t even see one’s fingers. There was not a single star in the night sky, not even a waning moon, as it was covered by a thick layer of dark clouds.
The wind whistled, and a loud whistling sound was heard.
They left the camp.
With a flash, Xiao ran used his earth-burrowing technique to burrow into the ground and rushed towards the barren County.
After cultivating the turtle breathing Divine Art to the returning to true level, its effects were heaven-defying. It could actually run on its own, saving him a lot of effort.
They were getting closer and closer to the barren County.
When they were about twenty miles away, a formation appeared from the ground and protected the area below.
It wasn’t too powerful, and even a connate cultivator could break in.
However, it could sense that if someone sneaked in, the person who set up the formation would know at once.
“He’s really careful. ” Xiao ran mocked.
“Destroy the restriction!”
He made a hand seal, and the black restriction fell.
The destruction restriction could not only set up formations but also break them. It had been cultivated to the state of returning to nature.
Even the first scroll could break all the formations in the world. That was its terrifying power.
“Break!”
With a wave of his right hand, he struck down a destructive restriction and fused it into the formation.
If he wanted to break the formation, he had to first fuse with them and then break a point.
This way, he could sneak in without a sound.
“Now.” Xiao ran’s eyes lit up.
He turned into a golden light and rushed in.
As he entered, the point where the destruction restriction had been opened quickly closed, allowing him to enter the formation without anyone noticing.
Several powerful soul energies scanned the ground in an orderly fashion, prepared for any unexpected situations.
“He’s really careful. ” The corners of Xiao ran’s mouth curled up as he revealed a look of disdain.
They rushed towards the barren County.
With the turtle breathing Divine Art, the probing of soul power had no effect on him.
When they reached the barren County, they found a corner and rushed out.
He changed his purple-gold battle armor into a set of nightwear and covered his face, only revealing his eyes.
The sound of footsteps could be heard. Two groups of people came from two different directions and looked over.
“Form transformation technique!” Xiao ran attacked again.
He turned into a mosquito and hid in a corner.
At this moment, his huge Foundation was completely revealed.
Although the shapeshifting technique was only at the peak earth-rank, he had long since cultivated it to the state of returning to nature. He could freely change his appearance. With the turtle breathing Divine Art, he could even change the aura of his soul.
Whatever he changed into.
Even eye-type innate divine abilities could not see through it.
The two groups of soldiers crossed each other. When they met, they even asked each other for the password to confirm it was true before continuing their patrol.
They left.
Xiao ran memorized the password, walked out of the alley, and entered the street.
Compared to the small alley, the streets were brightly lit, and there were military guards everywhere.
“Such a tight defense?” Xiao ran was shocked.
His thoughts turned as he thought of countermeasures.
He couldn’t walk on the streets outside. Even if he had turned into a mosquito, it wasn’t safe to fly around outside.
It would be troublesome if someone noticed them.
Thinking of this …
They returned the way they came and took a small alley, flying toward the county government office.
At this moment.
A young man in the nether Guard’s uniform sneakily appeared in the corner. He looked around and saw that there was no one around. He took out a small note from his sleeve and read it carefully.
He had no idea that a mosquito was watching him from behind.
The note read:
“Use all means possible to destroy Zhou’s plan.”
It was just a short sentence.
After reading the note, the young man crushed the note into powder. Just as he was about to leave, he felt a sharp pain at the back of his head, and his vision went black as he lost consciousness.
He made up his mind.
“Leave the wind barbarian race to me. Within three days, I will make sure that they will not be able to step into the barren County battlefield.”
“Are you serious?” The Marquis of Eastern desolation was serious.
“Yes,” Xiao ran nodded.
