Chapter 1811
However, this was not something that Master Khongkong was going to tell Huo Zhenxiao.
The most urgent task was to contact Chen Daojun as soon as possible and tell him all the details of the battle three days ago.
Huo Zhenxiao still had to take control of the battle, and he had a heavy responsibility to bear, so he could not afford to be distracted.
Huo Zhenxiao stared at Master Kongkong for three seconds.
In the end, he did not pursue the matter further, but nodded his head in agreement.
……
Xiongnu.
Late at night, the lights of the Thirteen Cities were still shining brightly.
These were also the days when the Thirteen Cities saw a long-awaited prosperous bloom.
Even late at night, the gates of the thirteen cities were all wide open.
The Xiongnu soldiers were at the gates, their armour was cold, their discipline was strict, and there was an aura of slaughter in the air.
The troops of the Xiongnu clan came in great numbers, and were stationed in each of the thirteen cities according to the arrangements made earlier.
As the order of the Hundred Clans was circulated, the 300 days of mourning for the Xiongnu were coming to an end.
The troops of the major barbarian tribes responded in droves.
Of course, to have such a sleight of hand order, apart from the fact that Xiongnu relied on the glory of the former king’s court, there was also the great charm of the martial body, and the generous post-war rewards!
Not only the major barbarian forces, but also a caravan of merchants entered and left the Thirteen Cities.
As the troops of the major barbarians converged to form the army of the hundred tribes, it was difficult for all parties to follow up with provisions, so the best option was to open up trade and commerce and rely on the caravans to replenish provisions.
Under the magnificent lights.
The streets of the thirteen cities were full of traffic and people.
Even late at night, the streets are bustling with people.
Inside the King City, it is even more magnificent and prosperous.
The streets and alleys are lit up.
Peddlers, merchants and horse caravans came and went.
From time to time, there were small groups of soldiers running wildly, with their horses whipped around, led by the Xiongnu guards.
These squads were the commanders of the troops of the hundred tribes that had converged on Xiongnu!
When the troops arrive in Xiongnu, the troop leaders also have an audience with the Queen of Xiongnu, not only as a matter of etiquette, but also to facilitate statistics on the situation of the army of the Hundred Clans and the subsequent arrangements.
Inside the Xiongnu Palace.
The heavy solemnity of the past was swept away.
Instead, there was a long-lost bustle and bustle.
All this was brought about by the arrival of the leaders of the Hundred Clans at the palace.
After meeting with Xixing, the leaders of the armies of the various tribes were arranged to rest in their respective palaces.
In order to join forces with the Hundred Clans, Shying Xing even offered a condition that would make all the clan leaders’ hearts flutter with fervour!
Inside the royal palace.
The bonfire danced, dispelling the chill.
But the palace was still cold, and only Xixing, dressed in a phoenix robe, was seated on the throne.
It was late in the evening, and it was hard to hide her tiredness on her beautiful face.
With one hand propped up on her chin, she leaned lazily against the throne, her starry eyes downcast and somewhat dull.
In the cold silence of the king’s palace, the sound of burning wood in a bonfire occasionally resonated.
Suddenly.
Under the cover of the bonfire, on the ground in one corner of the king’s hall, a human figure stretched longer and longer.
“You’ve been too tired these past three days!”
A hoarse voice rang out with it.
Xixing still maintained his lazy leaning posture, his brows lowered: “Even if I’m tired, I have to endure it, time waits for no one.”
“But there is still some time before you have to mourn for your father for three hundred days.”
“Father’s spirit in heaven will forgive me.”
Shying stretched and yawned wearily, looking askance at the figure in the corner clad in a black cloak, “If he were to blame, wouldn’t he still have you?”
A teasing smile.
Without waiting for the figure to respond, Shying Xing looked out profoundly into the magnificent lights outside the king’s hall.
“You see, it’s been a long time since the Huns have had such a flourishing and prosperous scene, hasn’t it?”
The figure turned slowly and looked out, sighing.
“Yes, it’s been a long, long time, so long that even I’m a bit of a stranger to this scene.”
There was a pause.
The figure’s voice was hoarse as he said, “If it hadn’t been for that heaven and earth vision three days ago, such a spectacle might have lasted a bit longer in the Thirteen Cities!”
“Who wouldn’t want to?”
An extremely bitter smile appeared on Xixing’s absolutely beautiful face.
As the former King of the Snowy Plains, the glory of the King’s court was engraved in the bones of the Xiongnu kings of all dynasties, and every Xiongnu king had hoped to restore the glory of the former kingdom.
Now, this is a re-creation of the former glory of the kingdom.
But it is clear to Shying that this is just a flash in the pan, driven by great interests and a common goal.
It was the battle to the south that really established the status of the Royal Court!
But the vision of heaven and earth three days ago has made this fleeting spectacle even shorter!
If we go by the plan, Xixing was planning to move forward steadily in this remaining time, make proper arrangements to plan everything for the southward journey, and wait until the 300 days of mourning were over, then swing the whip southward.
Shying rubbed his face and said wearily, “That heaven and earth vision, you have seen it, not only was it that big of a deal, it also directly led to the destruction of the entire 10,000-strong contingent of the East Hu Clan coming to the Thirteen Cities, if we delay any longer, I’m afraid there will be another storm.”
“It would be better to swing the whip south as soon as possible to set the army’s mind at ease.”
“It’s a pity that we haven’t investigated that vision of heaven and earth until now.”
The figure said in a deep voice, “Even with my perception, I could only detect that the two forces of Buddha and Devil were fighting to the death at that time, but the final end was just too abrupt and completely out of line!”
“Hmm? How unreasonable?”
Shying raised her eyebrows and looked at the figure.
The figure looked down and pondered for a moment before saying, “Buddhism and devilry have been in existence since the beginning of mankind, good and evil are not mutually exclusive, and they fight for life.
“It was because of this bizarre reason that I didn’t stop you, otherwise I would have stopped you anyway.”
Xixing’s eyebrows were furrowed, and in a trance, a figure emerged in her mind.
Devil ……
Was it related to him?
The thought had just risen, but she forced it down and smiled gently, “I am indebted to the Heavenly Wolf for guarding the bloodline of my Xiongnu royal court for generations, this time I will never fail to live up to the Heavenly Wolf’s high expectations.”
The figure was silent for a long time.
He waited for a long time before he said, “The snowy plains believe in me, how could I wish to see the hundred tribes sinking into this icy land?”
Inside the king’s hall, there was silence.
The only sound was the crackling of the wood in the campfire.
After a few seconds.
Two figures hurriedly entered the king’s hall.
Shying looked up at the two men who came in, and his heavy, deep face eased a little.
Within the Xiongnu King’s Palace nowadays, there were a few people who could enter the King’s Hall without being announced.
Ye Linglong and the old ghost of Yinshan were two of them.
Ye Linglong was special because of her status, while the Old Ghost of Yinshan was like the rest of the Hidden World, it was all about strength!
This was one of the privileges that Xie Xing had promised to the hermits who came to join him!
“You’re too tired, I’ll bring you a bowl of ginseng soup.”
Ye Linglong carried the ginseng soup and placed it in front of Xixing, opening the lid, the aroma was overwhelming and the heat was steaming.
“You’re heartbroken?”
Xixing smiled teasingly and said meaningfully.
