Chapter 153 The Power Game
The Teal Hill’s Vice Commander was witty, and once Yu Xuanji lost to her, so Yu Xuanji became more vigilant. Yan took the order to block Baize’s army. After several battles, they had recovered most of the Teal Hill’s territory. During the confrontation, the Baize’s army was defeated successively. The Teal Hill’s leader knew thoroughly about Baize’s military distribution and thrashed the Baize’s army. The Teal Hill’s main forces pressed hard, and Yu Xuanji was forced to retreat to the border. She had dreamed to expand the territory, but at last, she was always at a disadvantage. 25 kilometers away from the Teal Hill, Baize’s army chose to encamp themselves on the hillside, while the Teal Hill’s army chose to set camps in the Longquan Town. The two sides ceased the fire temporarily.
Yu Xuanji rushed back to the devil city. The entrance of the hall was crammed with devil soldiers. Yu Xuanji passed through the crowd slowly. She looked as charming as ever, though they had not seen her for months. Chidi came up to greet her. Those leaders saluted hurriedly at the sight of the Madam. Although the devil army disagreed with Chidi, they still paid special regard to the Madam.
Yu Xuanji returned to the devil city at this time. Obviously, she came back to ask for reinforcement. Wuyou could not help worrying about the Teal Hill. Although the situation was favorable to Wuyou’s father, he could not let the guard down, because Yu Xuanji was extremely cruel and merciless.
“Why are you so angry... It is better to peel off some foxes in the Teal Hill.” Yu Xuanji said these lightly, but her words irritated the person on the roof. Wuyou clenched her fists and thought that the woman was really vicious, and she wanted to kill the wicked woman.
“Don’t be mad. Something good to see...”
A group of devil soldiers holding the sabers barged into the main hall suddenly, and the man in front was a sturdy man with beards. The two sides were in a deadlocked confrontation. Chidi could not bear any betrayal. Xiao Qi’s defection had disgraced the Mount Da Huang, so Chidi could not spare any betrayer. He slapped out, but was blocked by the leading man.
“Half of Black Wind Tribe people have died or been injured for your ambition. Our brothers were killed by the mortals, but you just sat by and did nothing. You don’t deserve to be the Master of the devil city.”
The bearded man said in a reasonable way, which reduced Chidi to silence at that moment. Chidi had no way but to tolerate him. However, the bearded man came there with a certain purpose. Among devil tribes, the Black Wind Tribe was a grade lower than other tribes, so this Tribe hoped Chidi could reassign the power again so as to improve the status of the Black Wind Tribe. Chidi had the greatest hatred to anyone who threatened him, so he thrust a blow out. The bearded man leaped up to dodge the attack. Chidi gave another blow with hundred-percent Spirit Power, and even the stone pillars were shocked into parts. The bearded man gave an order, and the people of the Black Wind Tribe who had ambushed in the main hall rushed out. It seemed that the Black Wind Tribe tried to rebel and usurp the power from Chidi.
Wuyou watched their infighting and thought that she did not need to stir up trouble now. Danger had lurked in the Mount Da Huang for a long time. The Black Wind Tribe’s existence would keep Chidi very busy. At that moment, Wuyou had a plan, that was, she would help the Black Wind Tribe to occupy half of the city. It was really a good method to deal with Chidi. Hun Kun did not expect that the woman was hot-headed. She leaped out and smashed toward Chidi. The emergence of the sudden helper made the bearded man surprised in the stance. Wuyou transformed herself into a man, so Chidi could not recognize her. The bearded man collected himself and felt encouraged since an expert was helping him. The Black Wind soldiers surrounded the main hall. Yu Xuanji struck at these soldiers. If Baize lacked the devil army’s assistance, and Chidi lost the devil city, it would be crowning calamity to Baize. The Black Wind soldiers were commanded to jointly attack Yu Xuanji. Seeing Yu Xuanji besieged by the Black Wind soldiers, Chidi gathered spirit power and lifted her up. Yu Xuanji suspended in the mid air and showed no mercy to any traitor. Her wand popped out. The devil army’s ringleader hid in the corner. A wise man should choose the right side. It was hard to see the clear winner now, so the ringleader thought he could not take any reckless action. Win or lose did not matter, but maintaining the strength was the top issue currently. He would show due respect for the next Demon Lord. Hun Kun sneered. Authority fooled all the people, and the Devil Realm was no an exception. Hun Kun thought about himself. In the past tens of thousands of years, he had been constrained in the Water Curtain Cave by Emperor Jun, which was also the desire’s product. Emperor Jun was afraid of their Master, so he tried every means to persecute Hun Kun. As one of the Creation Original Spirit’s disciples, Hun Kun was indolent by nature, unlike his Eldest Brother of deep thought. Therefore, the Master liked Hun Kun more. How was Hongjun doing now? The Master had no choice but to abandon the Eldest Brother. Hun Kun had been living for hundreds of thousands of years, and taken the things lightly. Enmity and gratitude were not worth mentioning. Since Hun Hun had regained the freedom, he would enjoy it intently.
In the main hall, death filled the air. Afraid of being exposed, Wuyou did not use the power of the Heavenly Book, and instead, she gathered Spirit Power and struck at Yu Xuanji, because the woman ganged with Chidi to do evil things and killed countless foxes. The bearded man dragged on his opponent. Today, he was ready to go ahead regardless. After all, there was no way back for the Black Wind Tribe, just like burning all the bridges. Sparks splashed the entire main hall, and the maidservants and servants were scared to get on the ground. Xiao Ba rushed out to strike the Black Wind soldiers. Since her Master was in trouble, she, as a servant, would risk her life to save the Master. Last time, Xiao Ba almost lost her own life because of framing Yu Xuanji. So this time, Xiao Ba was more obedient. Yu Xuanji was her master, and Xiao Ba should protect her for sure. Her devotion to the master could be showed today. Xiao Ba rushed at the forefront, but Wuyou’s slap threw her away. Yu Xuanji held the wand, and her Spirit Power spread. The Flowing Light went straight to the Black Wind army. Wuyou faced up to help them, because these Black Wind soldiers were still useful for her, and Wuyou would not allow the evil woman to take their lives. Yu Xuanji’s wand was burned with smoke by the Ancient Spirit. The scorching head forced Yu Xuanji to retreat tens of feet away. How could a formidable Spirit exist in the Black Wind Tribe. And the battle was fixed just by merely a move. The bearded man was shocked because in the evil city, only Chidi could defeat the wand, and he thought the man who came out suddenly did have great ability. Then, the bearded man’s fighting spirit soared. As long as with the man’s help, the bearded man believed that he was able to take a share of the devil city. The Black Wind soldiers were cheered up and surrounded Chidi. The main hall was full of the strong smell of gunpowder, and two sides were ready to fight. But Wuyou needed a draw between two sides. Only if so would it be beneficial to Wuyou. Without the devil army’s holding attack, the life in the Teal Hill would run smoothly and peacefully. If Chidi was eradicated, Wuyou’s husband was able to wipe out the evils and rectify the world more quickly, and Xiao Douya could see his father everyday. And for Wuyou, she just wanted to be a common woman to accompany her husband.
Knowing the woman’s intent, Hun Kun flew down and squeezed Chidi’s neck. Yu Xuanji swept toward with an attempt to save her husband, but was blocked by Hun Kun. Yu Xuanji was not his match and was forced to retreat tens of feet. Chidi gathered spirit to wriggle himself free. Hun Kun increased the Spirit Power.
“Who are you? Dare to be rude to Majesty?”
The devil army’s ringleader rushed up, because it should be an internal struggle for authority. How could an outsider put a hand in? The ringleader was unwilling to see it, because the devil city could not fall on an outsider’s hands. After all, the Master of the devil city was of the Mount Da Huang’s, so how could it be ruled by an outsider? The devil army’s ringleader waved his hand, and then, the archers in the main hall surrounded the Black Wind’s soldiers immediately. The ringleader had two strings to the bow, but still ended up killing. Hun Kun did not scare of these little lackeys, and picked up Chidi to throw out. Wuyou also set defensive cover, because the Black Wind soldiers could not die. Chidi knew that these people came there not to kill him, so he thrust a palm. Hun Kun had expected it and dodged it with ease. Chidi was pulled to the roof by the stranger. Watching the Majesty was taken away, the devil army’s ringleader followed to fly out of the main hall. Entangled with Yu Xuanji, Wuyou could not free herself at that moment, so she slapped heavily and flew out.
“Madam.” Xiao Ba helped Yu Xuanji up. Yu Xuanji’s heart was hit bitterly by the blow, and bloody smell sprang up, but she suppressed the feeling. Apparently, the stranger came here for a certain purpose.
“Help me out of the hall...” If something bad happened to Chidi, Baize was finished. Yu Xuanji married Chidi for Baize. Without the devil army’s assistance, Baize would be more miserable, which was the last thing that Yu Xuanji wanted to see. Outside the main hall, the two sides confronted. The white-haired man held the spiritual saber. If the saber cut down, Chidi would be beheaded. Yu Xuanji flew up with pains. Baize needed Chidi. The devil army’s ringleader gave an order, and then arrows were shot out but bounced back by the defensive cover. Wuyou smashed out, and the archers were blown to the ground. The ringleader shot out the energy bomb, and the explosion was deafening. The defensive cover was broken a hole by the blast wave. Then, arrows dashed into the defensive cover and injured a number of Black Wind’s soldiers. The bearded man rushed out of the defensive cover and waved his hammer to the devil soldiers. It was time to end it. With the thunderbolt momentum, Wuyou darted out and seized Yu Xuanji’s neck with ease. Wuyou increased her Spirit Power. Chidi got away from the struggle and blew on Wuyou’s back. Thanks to the Ancient Spirit’s protection, Wuyou was fine, and then thrust out a palm. Chidi faced up. Hun Kun’s carelessness left a loophole for Chidi to escape. But Wuyou would not spare the wicked woman. Yu Xuanji foamed at the mouth and kept twisting. Hun Kun looked worried because Wuyou seemed to forget why she came there—not to make chaos in the devil city, instead, she could make good use of the chip on her hands. He flew up to remind Wuyou, and she became clear-headed again. She almost forgot her purpose of coming there, but was just unwilling to spare Yu Xuanji, the vicious woman.
“I want this devil city...” Wuyou glanced at them coldly. The devil army’s leader was not reconciled to the defeat and took on the offending position again. Wuyou blew out and hit a number of people onto the ground, even the devil army’s leader was thrown out. He gnashed the teeth and thought that the little man’s cultivation overshadowed his indeed, and when the Black Wind Tribe owned such a powerful talent?
“It seems that the Majesty does not care about the Madam...” Wuyou was making a bet. Judging from Chidi’s look, Wuyou could tell that he still had some affection to this wicked woman, however, this wicked woman was thinking about Xiao Qi. Yu Xuanji wondered whether the man would remember her if she died, and thought that she would always love Xiao Qi in the world. But her affection was cast to the winds. With the thought, Yu Xuanji shed tears unconsciously both for herself and Xiao Qi. However, her tearful look aroused compassion in Chidi’s heart. Chidi made up his mind that the cities were nothing compared to his woman’s life.
“I will give you, the Black Wind Tribe, the territory to the north of the devil city...” The bearded man could not believe that it was true. Having achieved the purpose, Wuyou did not baffle them and released Yu Xuanji. Chidi held his Madam in the arms and did not regret his decision just now, because he always kept in mind that Yu Xuanji stepped forward bravely to save him in the Immense Sea. However, he did feel bad that the integral territory had to be divided into two, and he had to cede half of the territory. Yu Xuanji was overwhelmed with mixed feelings. It was deceptive to say that she was not moved, but she had a crush on another man, so she felt guilty for Chidi.
Happiness came so suddenly that the bearded man was frozen in the stance. The devil army’s ringleader did not expect that things should turn out like this, and that Chidi was willing to give up so much for Yu Xuanji. The ringleader regretted not having copied the bearded man’s way, and he would have become one of the two Masters of the devil city. But the ringleader did not know that all of the things had been plotted. It was no use crying over split milk. This was what the person behind the scenes wanted: the bearded man got what he wanted, and Chidi rescued the wicked woman. All of the things were in control. Chidi returned to the main hall, followed by Yu Xuanji. The man sacrificed half of the devil city to save her. Although she did not love Chidi, she was moved by his deeds. What if Xiao Qi was in the same situation? Yu Xuanji had already known the answer: Xiao Qi was just for the fox spirit.
“Our benefactor...” The bearded man fell on the knees instead of following Wuyou out of the main hall. Then, the Black Wind’s soldiers joined in to kneel to Wuyou.
“Keep the devil city well.” As the voice fell, Wuyou disappeared. The bearded man picked himself up from the ground. What happened today was just like a dream. No one had ever predicted that he could become the devil city’s Master overnight.
“Can the bearded man be a match for Chidi...” Hun Kun pointed out the heart of the problem. The bearded man was still incapable of stirring up chaos in the devil city. Wuyou had to stall Chidi, but she thought that the bearded man was courageous, because his challenge to Chidi could demonstrate that the bearded man was not a coward. Wuyou and Hun Kun left the Devil Realm to Kunlun. The little boy had no place to go, so Wuyou took him. And Hun Kun was homeless too and he had to stay in Kunlun temporarily. Spirit Beasts flew over the Ao Ze, and Xiao Douya drove the King of the Spirit Beasts to the top of the snow mountain.
