Xu Ke and Lin Cheng frowned, feeling that things were not simple.
“What do you mean?” Xu Ke asked.
“What do I mean? Hehe…”
The leader of the Azure Dragon sat back on the horse, turned the horse’s head, and gave everyone a meaningful and sarcastic smile, “You’ll know when the time comes, let’s go!”
“You want to leave? Have you asked the sword in my hand?!” Lin Cheng shouted.
Instantly, thousands of soldiers around him shouted in unison and pulled out their swords at the same time.
For a moment, the sound shook the sky.
It gave the soldiers of the Azure Dragon Legion a fright.
The Azure Dragon Leader himself was a little apprehensive.
To be honest, he didn’t dare to fight.
Ever since he left Glory City, his army had been attacked by strange beasts several times. They had no choice but to break into pieces and flee for their lives.
Right now, less than one-tenth of his army was gathered under his commands. Moreover, they were a tired army. He had even lost a lot of his original weapons and equipment.
White Tiger, Vermillion Bird, and Black Tortoise, the three legions that were originally far inferior to him, had now changed into uniform armor.
It looked like they were forged from the very rare black-scaled element!
It was said that weapons forged from this material could easily cut through the thick and tough outer skin of strange beasts.
When made into armor, it could even withstand heavy attacks from strange beasts and still remain intact!
In theory, as long as a person could withstand the powerful force of the strange beasts hitting the armor, they could rely on the armor and weapons forged from the black-scaled to kill strange beasts one-on-one!
Such excellent equipment was incomparable to the old Azure Dragon Legion which was in a sorry state now.
Once they started fighting, they would be giving themselves up!
Immediately, the Azure Dragon Leader had the intention to retreat.
But on the surface, he still pretended to be calm.
“Not letting go?” He narrowed his eyes, “Think carefully. Although my troops are not as well-equipped as yours, they are not existences that can be easily controlled. If you fight with me, when you lose your troops and generals, it will only make Glory City fall faster!”
“You!”
Lin Cheng was extremely furious, but he knew that the other party was right.
Moreover, he wasn’t the one who could make the decision. Even if he was angry, he couldn’t make a huge mistake just because of a moment of impulse.
Hence, he turned his head and looked at He Chuan, following the City Lord’s opinion.
“Let them go.”
He Chuan waved his hand lightly.
“Hmph, at least you know what’s good for you!”
The Azure Dragon Leader left without turning back, leading the vast army behind him.
It was obvious that he was afraid.
However, he still refused to admit it.
Xu Ke and the others were all filled with anger.
Looking at his back as he left, they all came to He Chuan’s side.
“Your Highness, we let him go just like that?” Xu Ke hesitated for a moment and reminded, “Raising a tiger will lead to a disaster…”
Lin Cheng was also very supportive of this. He cupped his fists and said, “Your Highness, as long as you give the order, I will lead a thousand troops and bring that bastard’s head over!”
He Chuan glanced at him, “Do you really have the ability?”
Lin Cheng hesitated for a moment, “Two thousand troops! As long as there’re two thousand troops, I will definitely live up to Your Highness’ expectations!”
“It’s useless even if I give you five thousand men.” He Chuan shook his head slightly, “The older the ginger, the spicier it is. He has been the Azure Dragon Marshal for so long, he won’t be completely useless.”
As he spoke, he sighed softly.
Actually, he also wanted to destroy the Azure Dragon Legion here to save himself some trouble in the future.
However, according to the deduction system’s judgment, if he really did that, the success rate would be less than 10% .
Although he didn’t know the exact reason, He Chuan wouldn’t doubt the accuracy of the deduction system.
He didn’t want to take such a risk.
Moreover, the most important thing now was still the three strategies that military advisor Lin Ya had developed.
Obtaining the guiding technique was the most practical thing.
Coincidentally, the people in the dojo had learned of the Azure Dragon Legion’s departure.
After having a conversation across the area, they also learned that He Chuan’s group was the true Glory City Legion, and even the City Lord was among them.
However, the troublesome thing was that the people in the dojo were more cautious and still did not open the door.
Although they were grateful to He Chuan and the others for helping them out, it was still a different matter. The dojo was not open to the public. Now that the dojo master was in closed-door cultivation, they could not make the decision.
Fortunately.
When Lin Cheng and the others felt that they were going to return empty-handed.
A burst of hearty laughter came from the depths of the dojo.
“Hahahaha, the City Lord of Glory City has graced us with his presence. Please forgive me for not welcoming you.”
In the next moment, an old man with a long beard suddenly appeared in front of everyone.
His clothes fluttered in the wind, as if he was a fairy or an illusion. Just by standing there, one would feel that he was unfathomable.
He Chuan did not act arrogantly. He cupped his hands and bowed according to the rules of this world, “Senior, you are too kind. We are here because we have something important to ask of you.”
“Alright, alright, alright. If not for the City Lord’s help, I’m afraid that my dojo, which I have been running for many years, would be in a mess now.”
The old man stroked his beard, “If you don’t mind, the City Lord can come to my dojo to discuss it.”
As he spoke, he walked back to the dojo. With a wave of his sleeve, the door opened automatically.
He Chuan was about to enter when Lin Cheng and Xu Ke pulled at him at the same time.
“Your Highness, be careful.”
“Your Highness, this person is unfathomable. If he harbors ill intentions, you’ll be in danger if you go…”
Lin Ya, who was beside him, had a confused look on her face. She still did not know what exactly had happened.
He Chuan smiled calmly, “It’s fine, wait for me outside. Take the army and station them somewhere else. Tell Miss Lin Ya about the surrounding environment. If the Azure Dragon Legion returns, she will be in charge.”
Lin Cheng and Xu Ke looked at each other. They did not dare to disobey He Chuan’s orders, so they could only grit their teeth and agree.
Then, He Chuan slowly walked into the dojo.
The moment he stepped through the door.
Bang!
The wooden door fluttered without any wind and closed tightly!
Xu Ke was still a little worried, “That old man’s skills are really strange. Will something happen to His Highness if he enters just like that?”
“Since things have already come to this, it’s useless to talk about this anymore.”
Lin Cheng shook his head and looked around. Then he said, “Let’s go to the mountain and guard. Send people to keep an eye on it at all times. Once there’s any movement in the dojo, we must save the City Lord at all costs!”
