Before this, the Loess Kingdom had already seized the two cities of Haojin, Li City and Ying City. If Yin City were to fall again, there would be a crisis in Kuangcheng and Piaocheng, with Kuangcheng and Piaocheng being the closest to the Imperial City, and they would have to rely on these two cities for a large amount of foodstuffs. Because they were in the very center of the capital, they absolutely could not let anything happen to the Imperial City, so guarding Yincheng was the most important task at the moment.

The army of Loess Nation was stationed in the countryside outside the north gate of Yin City. Every day, they would think of all sorts of barbaric methods to attack Yin City, and the troops stationed there were unable to withstand them. Because they knew the importance of Yin City, they resisted it with their lives, but if they continued to fight like this, sooner or later, they would be exhausted.

Luo Liya and the others entered the city from the south gate of the Yin City. Now, many citizens of the Yin City fled to the south, but no one dared to enter the city at this critical time. When Luo Liya and the others entered the city, they looked at them strangely.

They quickly revealed their identities, after all, time was of the essence, and they had to quickly meet the guards of Yin City. The Eunuch from the Hao Wu Qin Sect came out of the palanquin in another palanquin following Luo Liya and the rest, and his luxurious official uniform immediately caused the others to be stupefied, and in addition to the whisk and bright yellow silk cloth in his hand, the soldiers who had never seen the world looked at each other, not knowing how to react.

"Where is the guard of Yin? We are here under the orders of the Emperor and have an imperial edict announcing our arrival! "

Although those people were skeptical, they did not dare to be negligent. One of the guards immediately called for the guard commander of Yin City, Lan Ruo. As soon as she heard what was going on, she felt that the situation had become serious and rushed from the North Gate to the South Gate, just in time to see the eunuch as well as Luo Liya's group.

After so many years of fighting in the army, Lan Ruo was someone with a high cultivation base. She was already in the real world, and the few people in front of her were clearly much stronger than her.

"How can the guards of Yin City listen to Lan Ruo's orders?" The eunuch continued speaking as he took out a medallion from his waist. When Lan Ruo saw the medallion, a look of shock flashed in her eyes. She immediately knelt down before the eunuch and cupped her hands, "Your Majesty, your majesty has lived for countless years."

"According to the luck of the heavens, the emperor has summoned the following day: Ever since the war started with me, I have been unable to sleep, and have always been worried about the war. Now that the war is getting more intense, and our army is being forced to retreat bit by bit, I am even more worried, and now that my old friend the late emperor is facing me, he is willing to lend me a helping hand. I am very pleased, and my old friend Lu Qingyi and his disciples have been sent by the late emperor to the military camp in Yin City to fight.

After the eunuch finished speaking, Lan Ruo kowtowed and said, "Your subject accepts the decree." Then he lifted his eyes and took the imperial edict from the eunuch.

"General, please rise." The eunuch helped Lan Ruo He up. Lan Ruo then stood up and glanced at Lu Qingyi and the rest at the side. Then, she smiled at the eunuch and said, "Eunuch, are you busy? "Would you mind coming to this general's residence to sit and eat some tea?"

The eunuch immediately shook his head. "Right now, the general's concern is how to protect Yin City, not how to eat tea. It's time for us to leave as well. His Majesty is still waiting for us to return to report."

Lan Ruo He immediately nodded. "If that's the case, then why didn't Lan Ruo keep Eunuch? After this battle is over, if there's another chance, Eunuch will definitely reward us."

The eunuch only lightly nodded his head and did not say anything else. He glanced at Lu Qingyi and the others, cupped his hands, and said: "This servant will return to report first. Senior will take care of himself, His Majesty is still waiting for Senior to return to the Imperial City earlier."

Lu Qingyi smiled and responded. The eunuch then got into his palanquin and drove away. Why didn't Lan Ruo think that the eunuch that served Hao Wuheng in front of the emperor would be so polite to Lu Qingyi? It seemed like this eunuch in front of her was not a simple person, the imperial edict had said that she was an old friend of the late emperor? This was a character that could stand shoulder to shoulder with the late emperor.

Lan Rui pondered as she walked forward with a smile on her face, "It seems like Senior is Lu Qingyi, right? This junior greets you, senior. "

"There's no need to be so polite. You're still the highest ranked general of Yin City. We're only here to help. Let's not waste any time. Why don't you bring us to the battlefield first?" Lu Qingyi was wearing casual clothes, as if she could fight with the soldiers of the Loess Kingdom at any time.

Lan Rui was slightly astonished, but she quickly regained her senses. "Alright. Men, prepare the horses!"

Luo Li Ya, Ye Yingtian, and Lu Qingyi mounted their war horses and followed behind Lan Ruo. Because of the war, the number of civilians in the city had decreased, and the majority of the civilians in Yin City had closed their doors. There were only a few people on the streets, and most of them were patrolling soldiers.

When they arrived at the north gate, the soldiers of Loess Country and Haojin Country began another round of battle. The soldiers of Haojin Country opened the city gates and rode their horses out to fight with them, and the cavalry of Loess Country also went up to fight with them. It was hard to part the two sides, so when Lan Ruo saw this scene, she immediately jumped off her horse.

"General, you're finally here!" After you left just now, those barbarians of the Country of Loess attacked the city gate as if they had eaten wild herbs. As a last resort, they had no choice but to dispatch some of their garrison troops to fight with them. The situation is getting worse and worse. Or continue to send troops? "

The deputy general of Yin City did not put Lu Qingyi and the rest in his eyes at all. He was worried about other matters and did not have the time to pay attention to them.

It was the first time that Luo Liya had seen the barbarians of the Loess Kingdom. They were tall and big, and even at such a distance, Luo Liya could still feel the murderous aura exuding from their bodies, as if they were going to swallow up everything in front of them in the next moment.

Their heads were covered with yellow scarves and they chopped at anyone they saw. It was a very bloody and violent scene. How could Lan Ruo have seen the scene in front of her eyes? If she continued to send people down to fight, it would only result in more deaths and injuries. He couldn't do it. They were risking their lives for Haojin Kingdom, so why would they become the group that was given up?

When Lu Qingyi saw that Lan Ruo did not make a decision for a long time, she immediately summoned her true energy, and the Immortal Level masters already had the ability to move mountains and overturn seas. With a lower level cultivation, they could devour the sun, and Lu Qingyi was worried about accidentally injuring the soldiers of Haojin Kingdom, so she only ordered the Real Gu to attack the soldiers of Loess Kingdom who were wearing yellow scarves, not using her true energy to intimidate them.

When Lan Ruo saw this scene, she became stupefied. Luo Li saw his blank look and immediately went forward to pat his shoulder, "General, we should withdraw our troops now. Don't let our soldiers be affected as well."

When the soldiers of Haojin Country heard the order, they immediately retreated towards the city gate. The city gate was opened and shut, and the barbarians of Loess Country continued to crawl on the ground. Luo Liya stepped forward and asked Lu Qingyi, "Master, what should we do now?"

I accidentally used the Gu just now, and I only wanted to not hurt Hao Jin Kingdom's soldiers, but I didn't expect that this news would quickly spread to Dongli Zhen's ears. He will definitely know that I'm in Hao Jin Country's army, and he will immediately rush over to deal with me.

Lu Qingyi was still as calm and collected as before, but her eyes revealed a hint of regret. Luo Liya hadn't thought of this just now, so they were all careless.

However, Lan Ruo was extremely happy. Seeing how high Lu Qingyi's cultivation base was, her Haojin Kingdom was truly saved. If she used another move like that, then even the Loess Kingdom would be destroyed by her.

It's no wonder that His Majesty respects you as his esteemed guest. With your current cultivation, I'm afraid that no one in the world will be able to win. If you continue to stay in the army, you will definitely be able to take back the lost territory.

However, Lu Qingyi and Luo Liya responded with silence. Right now, their minds were thinking about what method they should use once Eastern Li Zhen knows about this, but when Lan Ruo saw that they didn't speak, she coughed dryly. Seeing that he was a little embarrassed, Ye Yingtian spoke up for them, "Senior is a bit tired, does General have a place to sleep for us?"

"Yes!" Of course there was this. He expected that this time, the country would suffer a huge setback and not repeat the same mistake for a short period of time. Would the celebratory feast be held at the end of the night? "When the time comes, we can still …"

"No."

Luo Liya, Lu Qingyi, and Ye Yingtian objected at the same time. Lan Ruo immediately looked back with some surprise. Her face flashed with slight astonishment, "Why?"

"The most important thing right now is that we can't let our guard down. After today's battle, the Loess Kingdom will definitely not underestimate us, and they will naturally come up with a method that is even more powerful than before. Now, General Lan, can you allow us to go into the tent and learn more about the topography of Yin City as well as the details of the previous battle?"

Luo Liya spoke out what was on Lu Qingyi's mind. Lu Qingyi did not say anything else and seemed to agree with what Luo Liya had said.

Earlier, he had focused all of his attention on Lu Qingyi, thinking that she was the only one he was going to deal with. However, now that he seriously sized up Luo Liya, he realized that her cultivation level was definitely not inferior to his and that the aura exuding from her body was also about the same as Lu Qingyi's. Especially her pair of pitch black eyes, which seemed to have many complex emotions rolling within them.

"The girl is right, but I haven't asked for her name yet. "And this one …" He shifted his gaze from Luo Liya to Ye Yingtian. Ye Yingtian stared blankly for a moment before quickly blurting out, "My name is Ye Yingtian. As for her …"

Ye Yingtian was hesitating on whether to tell him Luo Liya's real name, but after all, Luo Liya's father was Luoyan, and the words' Miss Luo 'had a little fame in the Blue Water Nation. If someone was sent to investigate, they might find out that they were originally from the Blue Water Nation.

"I have no last name, just call me Luo." A look of relief appeared on Lan Ruo's face. He thought that Luo Liya would ignore him in contempt.

"Okay, Miss Luo, what Miss Luo said just now was very reasonable. I wonder what Senior Lu Qingyi thinks?" If Senior agrees, I will immediately arrange for you guys to go into the tent to discuss about the military. "

"I agree with Aral. Let's go." From the very beginning, there had not been the slightest hint of happiness on her face, because she was worried about Eastbreak.

Lan Ruo He immediately smiled, and ordered some men to prepare horses for the army stationed in the city. Originally, the defending troops of Yin City were usually stationed in the outskirts of the city, but they were beaten until they were forced into retreat by the Loess Empire. The people also fled, leaving the city empty.
