Chapter 552 - The Fifth Gate
”People know that there are a total of four entrances to Furious Billows Castle, located in the east, south, west and north respectively. What no one knows is that there is actually a fifth entrance to Furious Billows Castle.”
Tang Huan said while beaming.
Everyone knew that out of the four entrances to the Furious Billows Castle, the southern and western entrances, the three armies that were besieging the Furious Billows Castle were mostly deployed in these two directions.
The entrances to the north and east were all near the sea. Due to the limitations of the terrain, the number of people that could be deployed to those two entrances were extremely small, and they were often ambushed from the sea by Demon Clan's troops. Furthermore, the troops of the Demon Clan's army also obtained supplies from the sea from those two entrances.
”What?”
Feng Ming was shocked, she looked at Tang Huan in disbelief: ”The fifth entrance?”
She had been in the Demon Clan for many years, but she had never heard of this news. If the Demon Clan was like this, then the entire Human Clan was the same. Otherwise, the three allied armies would have attacked the Furious Billows Castle long ago.
”How do you know?” Immediately after, Feng Ming who had recovered from his shock and asked subconsciously.
”I originally didn't know either, but since Senior Cang Mo and the others knew about it, I also knew about it.” Tang Huan said with a smile.
”Cang Mo...”
Feng Ming was startled for a moment, then understood, the fifth entrance, was something that Cang Mo had told him. Cang Mo and the others were originally generals under Feng Wu Ye's command, and Feng Wu Ye had once guarded this Furious Billows Castle for many years.
From the looks of it, the fifth entrance was really there.
Tang Huan smiled slightly and said: ”When General Feng Wuye oversaw this Furious Billows Castle all those years ago, he had thought that if there were only four entrances, it would be almost impossible to snatch them back once this Furious Billows Castle was occupied. To be safe, he sent his trusted aides to build a fifth entrance. However, the existence of that entrance has always been a secret in the Human Clan. Other than the person who was ordered to stay silent, in the entire Human Clan, only the Honorable Sacred Emperor and General Feng Wuye know of that fifth entrance. ”
Tang Huan paused for a moment before continuing, ”Before General Feng Wu Ye's death, he told Cang Mo where the fifth entrance was. In these past few decades, even though Cang Mo has never left the 'Demon Region Desert', he knows that the Demon Clan must have taken control of the Furious Billows Castle. However, he hates the actions of the three nations so he never planned to leak this information out, only until I left the Star Stone Continent did he change his mind. ”
Saying this, Tang Huan could not help but sigh.
If not for the fact that he coincidentally entered the Star Stone Continent and helped Cang Mo and the others drive away the Jiu Mo Sha, who was trying to take the [Divine Weapon Catalogue] 's remnant scroll and gem, no one would ever know about the existence of the fifth entrance of the Furious Billows Castle once Cang Mo died. It was also possible that this castle would continue to be occupied by the Demon Clan for another ten years, or even decades, or even hundreds of years.
After all, the Tang Dynasty, Mo Yun, and Sha Long could not always garrison their troops in Two Realms Plain. If any friction or unforeseen event were to occur between the three nations, it could possibly affect the situation in the Two Realms Plain. Once the Demon Clan recovered from his defeat, the effects would be even more severe.
”In that case, what are we waiting for?” Hearing Tang Huan's words, Feng Ming's eyes lit up, and was eager to give it a try.
”Let's go!”
Tang Huan collected his emotions, laughed, and followed the mountain to the north. Very quickly, the vast ocean entered Tang Huan's and Feng Ming's line of sight.
