Chapter 242 Panic Xiao Jiyun
Now the situation on the field is seven against six, and the opponent is still six old immortals, no matter in physical strength or blood, they can not compare with Xiao Tingxuan's side.
What's more, Xiao Tingxuan's side has more people, and can fight several people alone.
In this way, the strength comparison between the two sides is very obvious, and Xiao Tingxuan's side obviously has an absolute advantage.
As expected, after a fierce battle, Xiao Tingxuan's people successfully killed all the strong men of the opponent, and they couldn't escape.
So far, Dengzhou fell into Xiao Tingxuan's control.
Dengzhou fell into Xiao Tingxuan's hands, and the fate of the Chu family became clear. They will face the same ending as the Zheng family, and the Chu family will completely disappear in the Great Zhou Dynasty.
After successfully taking Dengzhou, Xiao Tingxuan's army did not stop, and the army continued to march south.
Since the top strong men of the Jiangnan family had fallen in the battle of Dengzhou, the next attack was almost no pressure for Xiao Tingxuan.
Every time they arrived at a city, the generals who were defending the city chose to surrender. And those noble families who were arrogant on weekdays had already fled in fear, fearing that they would be wiped out by Xiao Tingxuan's army.
In this way, within a few months, the entire Jiangnan region was quickly taken by Xiao Tingxuan, and his luck value was greatly improved.
The capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
"How could this happen? Why!"
Xiao Jiyun angrily threw the battle report on the ground, his eyes widened, and his face was full of disbelief.
He originally hoped that Xiao Tingxuan could fight with the Jiangnan family to a loss, so that he could reap the benefits, but the facts were completely beyond his expectations.
In just a few months, Xiao Tingxuan had wiped out all the Jiangnan families and unified the entire Jiangnan region. Now it is only more than a thousand miles away from Kyoto.
According to Xiao Tingxuan's marching speed, if there are no obstacles along the way, then within a month, Xiao Tingxuan's army will surely arrive at the foot of Kyoto.
At this moment, Xiao Jiyun finally realized the seriousness of the problem and was filled with panic.
Xiao Tingxuan's strength exceeded his expectations. He was lucky and thought that Xiao Tingxuan was just so-so.
But according to the strength shown in this battle report, he was not Xiao Tingxuan's opponent at all. If he wanted to compete with him, he could only use all the trump cards of the royal family.
However, Xiao Jiyun was only the acting emperor and had not yet officially ascended the throne. He did not have enough power to mobilize these forces.
After taking this position, Xiao Jiyun gradually learned about the many secrets hidden in the royal family of Da Zhou.
It turned out that in the royal family of Da Zhou, in addition to the supreme existence, there were actually twelve great masters in the royal family, and the number of masters reached dozens.
After learning that the royal family of Da Zhou had such a deep foundation, Xiao Jiyun, who had always been calm and composed, was also shocked.
He finally understood why their Xiao family could sit firmly on the throne of the emperor without fear of those aristocratic families joining forces to rebel.
So this is the reason. After all, with such a strong backing, who can easily shake it?
However, despite the powerful power of the royal family, since Xiao Jiyun has not yet officially ascended the throne, the one in the deep palace has only given him a small part of the power.
At present, Xiao Jiyun can only mobilize four grandmasters and ten master-level strongmen. As for other forces, Xiao Jiyun has no right to use them at all.
Including the mysterious and powerful organization such as Shadow Guard, Xiao Jiyun has no right to know at this moment.
These four grandmasters and ten master-level strongmen, if used to quell the rebellion, such a configuration may be enough.
However, if you want to compete with Xiao Tingxuan, these forces are obviously far from enough.
Therefore, Xiao Jiyun must rely on external help to enhance his strength.
"Come here! Prepare the carriage and go to the Dali Temple. I want to meet someone from the Lihuo Dynasty."
Xiao Jiyun wanted to meet someone from the Lihuo Dynasty in person. He knew that only with the help of the power of the Lihuo Dynasty could Xiao Tingxuan have a chance to defeat Xiao Tingxuan.
Soon after, Xiao Jiyun appeared in the Dali Temple.
Three people from the Lihuo Dynasty came to meet Xiao Jiyun. One of them was a man and a woman who were about the same age as Xiao Jiyun, and the remaining one was an elderly elder.
If you look closely, the old man is actually a great master.
Obviously, the old man's duty is to protect the safety of this man and woman.
Having a great master to protect them personally shows that these two people have extraordinary identities.
Yes, the status of this man and woman is indeed not low. They are the prince and princess of the Lihuo Dynasty.
The man's name is Li Shao, the third prince of the Lihuo Dynasty, the same as Xiao Jiyun, both are the third princes.
The third prince to the third prince, so the etiquette of both sides is reasonable.
The woman's name is Li Luo, and she is the ninth princess of the Lihuo Dynasty.
Seeing Xiao Jiyun coming in person, Li Shao raised his lips slightly, and asked with a smile: "Your Majesty, have you thought it through and are ready to fulfill our agreement?"
In fact, he was asking Xiao Jiyun on purpose. Xiao Jiyun definitely did not come here to fulfill their agreement.
Although he was not from the Great Zhou Dynasty, he knew everything about the major events happening in the Great Zhou Dynasty, especially the fact that Xiao Tingxuan led the army to wipe out all the Jiangnan families, and then marched forward triumphantly and soon approached the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Looking at Li Shao's half-smiley expression and his obviously sarcastic words, Xiao Jiyun couldn't help but frown.
But thinking that he came here to ask for something from the Lihuo Dynasty, Xiao Jiyun soon felt relieved and said in a deep voice: "I came here to ask for help from your Lihuo Dynasty. As long as you are willing to help me solve the big trouble of Xiao Tingxuan, I will immediately execute the agreement between you and me."
"This..."
Hearing Xiao Jiyun's request, Li Shao showed a hint of embarrassment.
He was silent for a long time, as if weighing the pros and cons, and then slowly replied to Xiao Jiyun: "Your Majesty, can you give us some time to think about it?"
Xiao Jiyun thought about it for a while, then nodded and agreed: "Yes, I can give you time to think about it, but it has to be quick."
Xiao Jiyun knew very well that Li Shao was deliberately delaying him, and he didn't know what the other party was planning now, but he had no other choice now.
If there was no help from the Lihuo Dynasty, he would definitely lose to Xiao Tingxuan.
He would not be willing to lose to Xiao Tingxuan like this. After all, he had gone through so much hardship to get to this position, and now he has not yet secured it. How could he give it to Xiao Tingxuan so easily?
Once Xiao Tingxuan takes this position, not only will his life be in danger, but he will also be framed by Xiao Tingxuan as a traitor. After his death, he will not even be able to enter the ancestral temple. His life will be despised by future generations. This is definitely not the ending Xiao Jiyun wants to see.
Li Shao bowed to Xiao Jiyun and said, "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, once there is a result, we will inform Your Majesty as soon as possible."
"I am waiting for you, I hope you will not let me down."
Seeing Li Shao's sincere attitude, Xiao Jiyun no longer cared whether the other party was perfunctory to him, and turned around and left.
