To achieve immortality, I cultivate using Qi Luck

Chapter 744: Chapter 327: First Victory Reception_3

Who would believe that the Chu State would act against Zhou Country without a word of disagreement, possibly even with premeditation, beneath such appearances?

Remember that Chu State has just lost an Inborn Grandmaster and a prime minister, which has caused some instability both within and outside the court.

On the border, hundreds of thousands of Ning Country’s troops are still watching from Jiangdong, aren’t they?

How could Chu State dare, with both internal and external troubles, to have the audacity to attack Zhou Country?

Even the barbarians, who have already entered into an alliance with the Chu State, do not dare to believe that the Chu State has indeed taken action, as there are no signs of it.

In reality.

)After the journey of the alliance, as time passed and no movement was seen from Chu State, these barbarians began to feel anxious and started to doubt whether Chu State was just trying to deceive them into giving money without intending to deal with Zhou Country.

Based on this suspicion, they couldn’t bear it any longer and wanted to urge Chu State to quickly fulfill their alliance.

Unexpectedly, before they had a chance to act, the King of Chu summoned them and stated that he had already started.

“There can be no doubt about this matter.”

Looking at the several surprised and doubtful messengers below, Lu Yuan didn’t care about their doubts and simply said, “I have just received news that the two armies I have dispatched to conquer Hanzhong have already begun their operations.

Especially the main troop in Xiangyang, who has broken through Zhou People’s guard in the western territory of Hanzhong and is heading towards Hanzhong city.

If they are swift enough, it is possible that Nanzheng city could be captured in less than three to five days.”

Saying this, he couldn’t help but smile confidently.

Lu Yuan had no doubts about whether Qingyunzi and Huang Xuan’s two armies could capture Hanzhong county.

The two armies combined amount to a total of 140,000 soldiers, along with two high-level practitioners who are equivalent to the second realm of Inborn. Their team can be described as luxurious.

On the other hand, the Zhou People only have 50,000 soldiers, including both soldiers and county troops.

At this moment, of these 50,000 soldiers and troops, Qingyunzi has already annihilated over 10,000 of them. The remaining 30,000 are dispersed among the various county posts in Hanzhong, only sufficient to maintain stability.

Of the remaining Inborn Grandmasters, there is only Dongfang Wuyun, who is in the first state.

How such insignificant strength could withstand the thunderous onslaught of the Chu State?

The only variable in this plan is Dongfang Wuyun noticing something is amiss and deciding to abandon the bulk of the army, making a quick escape like Li Xiong did in the past.

In such a scenario facing an inborn grandmaster who doesn’t stand and fight but only wants to escape, even if Huang Xuan and Qingyunzi join forces, you can only watch his retreating figure with nothing to do.

However, considering the extremely low combat death rate of Inborn Grandmasters in this world, before Huang Xuan and Qingyunzi have made a name for themselves as deadly inborn grandmasters like Lu Yuan, they shouldn’t worry about Dongfang Wuyun running away out of fear.

It’s very likely that after hearing the news, he will stay in Nanzheng city, try to gather his troops, and wait for reinforcements from Zhou Country.

If this can be achieved, once Qingyunzi and Huang Xuan arrive under Nanzheng city with their troops, the two of them can join hands and surely kill him.

Of course.

No matter whether Dongfang Wuyun decides to fight or flee, it doesn’t matter to the overall situation.

If he manages to kill such an inborn grandmaster and further weaken Zhou Country, Lu Yuan would certainly be pleased.

If he can’t be killed, that’s also fine.

After all, Huang Xuan is supposed to stay in Hanzhong to guard it.

With this avatar present, Chu State is not afraid of Zhou Country, unless they come to attack with their full strength, sending three or four Inborn Grandmasters.

With Huang Xuan’s strength, he can easily handle it.

And to mobilize six or seven Inborn Grandmasters, with over 500,000 troops, to come and attack at full power…

Lu Yuan doubts whether Zhou Country can gather so much strength now?n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Even if the other side really can mobilize this.

To send out so many troops, the movement would definitely not be small; Chu State spies would relay the news before Zhou Country’s troops have even set off.

At that time, Chu State can also mobilize its own troops, marching north to contend with Zhou Country.

So small scale troops and soldiers are no threat to Huang Xuan.

With a large scale of soldiers and horses, the Chu State could make preparations in advance.

Adding both elements together, it would be as if Hanzhong County was already completely safe and untroubled.

However, while Lu Yuan was confident, others who didn’t know about his underlying strength and hidden cards, were undoubtedly sceptical.

Just like the five messengers below.

“Chu State has already won the first battle?”

As they listened to Lu Yuan’s words, they felt an absurdity rising in their hearts.

This King of Chu in front of them had been with them all along, never leaving, and no outsider had ever entered.

Now the King of Chu was claiming to have news from the battlefield thousands of miles away, naturally causing everyone to doubt him, thinking that this was a means for the King of Chu to deceive them.

However, the messenger from the Great Mohism did not, like his other four companions, directly identify it as a lie.

Instead, he remembered King Chu’s slightly strange and illogical moments of distraction just now, and thought that King Chu might have a means of communicating over thousands of miles in an instant.

In this world where Immortal Techniques exist, such methods are actually not rare.

Back when the spiritual energy was rich, let alone communicating thousands of miles away, even tens of thousands of miles wasn’t a big deal.

Their Great Mohism, in essence, is a cultivation sect, only transitioning from cultivation to martial arts due to the decline in spiritual energy.

However, no matter how it changes, the foundation would never change.

In the Great Mohism, there is a similar secret technique for communicating thousands of miles away.

It’s just that now the Celestial Spirit Qi of Heaven and Earth has dried up, all kinds of Immortal Techniques are gradually hidden, and this method gradually became unknown to ordinary people.

So it’s normal for the other four tribal messengers, who aren’t aware of this method, to be suspicious.

But this messenger from the Great Mohism, who could represent a sect, naturally held a remarkable position and knew some of the Immortal Technique secrets.

Upon being slightly reminded at this moment, he immediately grasped the point.

“If the King of Chu says so, then it doesn’t seem like he’s trying to deceive us.”

After having some guesses in his heart, not waiting for the other four tribal messengers to open their mouths, the messenger from the Great Mohism took the lead and said, “Since Chu State has already fulfilled the pact, then the envoy will later transmit this back to the sect to inform them about it.

It’s just that the Spiritual Woman is our Divine Lady of the Snowy Wilderness, with a prestigious status, receiving the faith and worship of millions in the Snowy Wilderness.

For the Spiritual Woman to get married, it’s an event that hasn’t occurred in millions of years in the Snowy Wilderness.

So, may I ask for Chu State to offer corresponding rituals in advance, sending people to welcome her, to comfort the hearts of the people.”

Lu Yuan looked at the messenger from the Great Mohism who spoke, and couldn’t help but admire him a bit in his heart.

The reason he had proactively revealed his ability to communicate over thousands of miles was not only to hasten the completion of the Spiritual woman’s marriage, but also to test these Snow Plains Nomads and to intimidate them in the process.

Looking at it now.

Putting aside the other four tribal messengers— they were just ordinary mortals.

But this messenger from the Great Mohism, indeed possessed some skills, saw through the hidden meaning behind his words and made a statement.

Not bad at all.

If a single messenger could be so capable, then the spiritual woman from the Great Mohism, one of the twin spirits, would surely bring more surprises for himself.

Maybe the one he was marrying, was not a self-proclaimed divine lady, but a true divine lady.

Perhaps the inheritance of the Great Dharma God has not been completely severed.

With these thoughts in mind, looking at the serious messenger from the Great Mohism, Lu Yuan said amiably: “Messenger, please be assured. The spiritual woman’s status is prestigious, I hold utmost respect for her in my heart.

For this occasion of welcoming the spiritual woman to Chu, my Chu State is willing to give her royal treatment and will definitely not make her feel wronged.”

Yes, only the welcoming ceremony would be given royal treatment.

But when the Spiritual Woman came over, her status would remain a concubine.

As for Lan Cai’er, his rightful wife, Lu Yuan had affection for her in his heart, and he wouldn’t abandon his wife for success and become heartless.
