665 Seven day battle (2/2)

Since he was going to die anyway, why not just totally relax? To be able to follow Zong Shou and unify Donglin, going through so many incredible things... He had no regrets in this life...

※※※※

”At most seven to nine days!”

In the clouds not far from Seven Cloud Mountain, a green-robed Taoist said coldly.

If Zong Shou was here, he would definitely be able to recognize this person. It was the one he had crossed several swords with on Lianyun Island.

When he said these words, apart from Wuji, there were two thirty-year-old Taoists. They all wore purple robes, giving off a special aura.

Behind those four were seven green shirt males with swords by their waist.

”I snuck in whilst both armies were fighting. Looking at the grain of the Night Demons, it would only last four to five days. Gantian Mountain Army can at most last for six. After six days they will be destroyed in this mountain. Adding in those supporting troops they might be able to last for a little longer...”

”Senior Master Minghui, that means that Gantian Mountain has great chances of winning?”

The one who replied was a middle-aged Taoist, his eyes filled with a weird expression.

He was already really shocked that Zong Shou and the Gantian Army could last till now.

When he heard the Taoist in the green shirt say those words, he felt disbelief.

He wasn't that good at the Art of War, but he knew that if the Gantian Mountain Ruler waited to fight when the Night Demons were out of grain, then they would most probably win this war.

”Three months of war, one attacking, one defending. The Night Demons lost just 300,000 while Zong Shou had lost 1.2 million!”

When Minghui said this, he laughed coldly, ”At this moment, Prince Jia Mingluo has 1.6 million troops!”

The ratio made one's heart jump.

The few people here frowned and didn't say anything. It was expected from the race which swept the Cloud World during the ancient times, controlling hundreds of worlds. The Night Demon Race's fighting strength was really shocking.

”I think they have no chance at all!”

Minghui shook his head and concluded, his eyes flashing, ”However, Kong Yao really is shocking. I thought that the Monster King wouldn't last ten days. However, in the blink of an eye, three months passed. This woman's ability is really unique!”

The moment he said this, even Wuji was silent and speechless.

Everyone felt that Zong Shou was blinded by beauty when he made Kong Yao the Commander to lead all the war matters, that he had made a stupid mistake. Or maybe the woman was just a decoration and a chess piece Zong Shou was using to suppress the Generals' powers.

However, looking at it now, one couldn't help but be impressed with his ability to sieve out talent.

Although he was at a disadvantage in this battle against the Night Demons, everyone knew that the cleverest housewife wouldn't be able to cook without rice.

Although the situation was close to being messed up, it wasn't Kong Yao's fault because she had too little troops!

Although they lost, they should feel honored.

”I didn't think this woman would be so talented! She isn't someone to lead at the front of the formation but someone to lead Generals. Her talents weren't shown before, but now that she is in charge of an army, she is shining so brightly!”

Wuji sighed, and then he mocked coldly, ”I heard that The Emperor of Great Shang smashed three tables and four teacups because of that. He also sent edicts to scold the Kong Family. Imperial Tutor Zhongxuan also went into seclusion for this matter to prophesize Kong Yao's fate...”

”No matter how much he regrets, it is already too late! Even if he wanted her back, he wouldn't be able to make her loyal!”

Minghui squinted, his eyes also filled with a mocking intent, ”Zong Shou is really intelligent, his eye for talent is really worth praise. This kid was able to unify Donglin in a short few years. However, the methods he used might not be able to let Kong Yao serve him loyally. After this battle, my Taoist Sect might have a chance. With this woman, our Taoist Sect has much higher chances for the Spiritual Wave.”

When Wuji heard this, he smiled but didn't reply. If they had a chance, they naturally wouldn't let go of some Commander!

Following this, another middle-aged Taoist man said coldly, ”Looking at the situation for both sides, it is just a fine line. If our Daoling Vast Habitat goes all out to help the Monster King, he might be able to win...”

The moment these words were spoken, the atmosphere tensed up. Wuji frowned, the one who spoke was the Luotian Sect Leader Longshuang.

Although the Xuantong Sect Leader Fayan didn't reply, his expression spoke for itself.

Wuji knew why these two people were unhappy. After all, Huizhou was under them for 10,000 years and unless they had no choice they wouldn't give it up easily to others.

Before this, he didn't think that Zong Shou would have chances of winning. However, now that he could fight to such a level with the Night Demons, they were all shocked.

”The Spiritual Wave is about to arrive, the Demon Path is staring aggressive, the Common People's Path has a chance of rising up. Our Daoling Vast Habitat can't be wasted at this unimportant juncture, to suffer heavy losses along with the Night Demons...”

Seeing the two of them with dark, cold faces and not speaking, Wuji said impassively, ”After this battle, even if Jia Mingluo wins, they would suffer huge losses. They will have to power to move east. Donglin Cloud Continent would be free for all of you to take.”

The moment such words were spoken, Fayan and Longshuang looked over in shock.

Even if Gantian Mountain lost, they wouldn't fall so easily. How would their two sects be able to move it?

Wuji quietly looked at the seven people behind, they knew that they couldn't easily take down Donglin which was why they were here. After he is defeated they will first take his life!

He sighed, he wasn't willing for this to happen and found it inappropriate.

At this moment, it was an order from the Daoling Vast Habitat head. Even he couldn't go against it.
