C75

To the commoners, a warrior of the Spiritual Martial Force was already considered a "god among man".

And Hong Yu killed a Spirit realm expert in one move. That was without a doubt very shocking and it exceeded the imagination of the three young girls.

They looked at Hong Yu in reverence, and from their mouths, they constantly muttered 'god person', shocked and passionate. Without a doubt, in their eyes, Hong Yu was a god sent by the heavens to save them!

"Right now, the evil sects have no leader. Their leaders and experts have all been killed by me, and their monkeys have scattered. This is a great opportunity to strike back. What are you waiting for?" Hong Yu opened his mouth to remind them, immediately waking them up.

"The left and right subordinates, open the gates and kill the devil for revenge!" The three girls immediately came to their senses, pointed their spears forward, and shouted loudly as they took the lead to jump down from the city gate. The village men were also excited and their morale was high, following that, they opened the gate and rushed in like a flood to kill the Demonic Sect army.

Immediately, the sounds of fierce battle broke out in the sky, dispersing the thick clouds in the sky.

Those heretics lost their commander, experts, dragons without heads, and they didn't have high combat strength to fight anymore. The three young girls led the group to kill, but it was as if no one was around them.

However, there were still smoke beacons rolling in the distance. There were actually other heretical followers supporting them, so the townspeople didn't dare to give chase. They immediately withdrew their troops and returned to the city in high spirits.

But the three girls who were the leaders of the townspeople weren't stupid. They deeply understood the principle of 'don't chase if you are in need of money'. At this moment, if there were any other experts from the evil sects attacking, relying on the walls of the town's stronghold, the arrow towers, maybe they could still fight. Once they left the city and faced the two great Evil Cult's disciples and army, which were like tidewater, they would definitely not be a match for them.

Not to mention the main force of the cult outside the town, even the entire town's experts almost couldn't defend this small group of heretics. If it weren't for Hong Yu, the tens of thousands of citizens in the town would have been in danger.

"This old man is the mayor of this town, Lan Qifu. I thank my benefactor for saving me. May I ask my benefactor's name?" An old man brought the three girls, as well as some of the town's officials, merchants, and famous people to pay their respects to Hong Yu.

"Hmm? This old man is interesting! " Hong Yu's eyelids jumped, he could see that this mayor called Lanqif was not simple.

This person was in his sixties or seventies, with a crane hair and a child's face, a turtle's back and chest, dressed in clothes that did not have the narrow-minded demeanor of a local official, on the contrary, he spoke with the utmost propriety. Even when facing Hong Yu, he was neither humble nor haughty, and his pair of eyes were clear and sharp, brimming with vigor, causing people to feel that his intelligence was extraordinary, and they did not dare to underestimate him.

Moreover, even though he was just a mere mayor who was old and decrepit, he was the leader of a group of people's prestige and experts in the town. He was the leader of a group, and his position in the town was extremely distinct; even the expressions of the three girls with extraordinary cultivations were filled with respect and respect for him.

It was no wonder that most of the towns and villages in Long County had fallen into the devil's lair, and this town was close to the base of the evil cult, yet it still had the power to resist.

Hong Yu even suspected that this person was the source of all the defensive methods of the village's walls, archery towers, and crossbows.

"I am the thirty-sixth prince, Hong Yu. I have received the orders to come to Liangzhou to pacify the chaos. I am here to lead troops to eliminate the demons from the Long Prefecture." I am the thirty-sixth prince, Hong Yu, who has received the order to come to Liangzhou to pacify the chaos. Hong Yu suppressed the curiosity in his heart and directly revealed his identity to appease the people.

"Oh my god! It's actually a prince? "

"Not only a prince, but also a duke!"

"It's hard to imagine that such an exalted existence would actually appear in our little place."

Everyone was dumbfounded, screaming and looking at each other in dismay. The biggest official that had appeared in their town was the county magistrate, who had come down to patrol, and many people had not even seen the county magistrate. Even from afar, they could only kowtow and look up, as they had absolutely no way of interacting with each other.

But now, with a 'prince' and 'duke' appearing in front of everyone, it was no different than a person giving them the feeling of meeting a god. No! In the temples and shrines, there were even gods worshiped by incense. However, princes and princes, these kinds of existences lived in temples, and most people would probably only be able to find a little bit of information from the news about their residences sent by the imperial government.

"Plop —"

"Why aren't you kneeling down?" Mayor Lan Qifu was obviously very good at recovering his breath. Although he was shocked, he did not lose his mind. He quickly knelt down and carefully warned the people behind him.

Everyone came to their senses as the black mass kneeled onto the floor.

"I didn't know that Duke Yu condescended to come here. In order to save us lowly commoners, he didn't hesitate to personally take the risk. We deserve to die a thousand times for our crimes …"

The old mayor, Lan Qifu, kowtowed with a terrified tone. He had obviously realized Hong Yu's status.

"Get up. This is an extraordinary period. The followers of evil do not recognize any princes, dukes, or commoners. The first thing they do when they see someone is to dig out their heart and refine an evil pill." Hong Yu helped him up and spoke in a friendly tone: "In my eyes, the Son of Heaven is no different from a commoner. As long as he is a commoner of the great Hong forces, he does not deserve death. At the very least, he cannot die in the hands of a demon from the evil cult."

"Yes!" Yes! "Yes!"

Lan Qifu was obviously very surprised by Hong Yu's words. His eyes sparkled as he said, "It's the fortune of the common people of this world for Duke Yu to have such thoughts. However, this is not the place to speak."

"Alright, find a quiet place. I also have some questions to ask." Hong Yu nodded and indicated for him to lead the way.

A group of people surrounded Hong Yu and led him down the walls of the stronghold, heading toward the center of the town.

"..."

In the mayor's manor.

Hong Yu lived high up in the hall. In front of him was a teacup with a few green buds floating in the water, exuding a green aura and a refreshing fragrance, but he didn't have the slightest interest in drinking tea. Instead, his brows were tightly knitted; he was obviously deep in thought.

The three young girls stood at the sides with their heads lowered. They carefully breathed, but their eyes constantly stole glances at Hong Yu as they cast curious gazes.

Hong Yu had previously saved them from the hands of that evil sect's expert with extraordinary and unrivalled means. He had immediately subdued them and under the influence of their youth, a trace of different thoughts arose in their hearts.

Not long after, the three young girls all had flushed faces and their bodies twisted. They looked at Hong Yu with a bit of shyness in their eyes.

"Which family doesn't care about love? A woman who loved heroes since ancient times! However, this Duke Yu is indeed a character. Not only does he have extraordinary strength, he can even say the words' the Son of Heaven is no different from a commoner '. It is clear that he is a person of great kindness, broad-mindedness and boldness.

He was not surprised by the strange movements of the three young girls. Instead, he was deep in thought, and the gaze he looked at Hong Yu with contained some intention to move as well. However, he was also able to maintain his calm and did not say anything.

All of a sudden, Hong Yu woke up from his deep thoughts. He looked at Lan Qifu and said, "The Demonic Sect is very powerful right now, and there are many experts under them. We cannot stay here any longer, especially after I've killed those two experts. The citizens of the town have to evacuate to the prefectural city of Long. "

"Duke Yu, our town is filled with dozens of nearby villages and towns. There are a total of ten thousand people. If all of them were to leave, everyone would have to leave with their families and a huge group of people. It was likely that they would be chased down by the great army of the Demonic Sect before they could even reach the city. Furthermore, this old one knows that the city of Long Prefecture is not safe. The Lifeless and Vacuum Sects are currently gathering troops from the surrounding towns and counties to attack the city.

Lan Qifu shook his head and replied, "Actually, I've also considered it. At the moment, we can only take advantage of the Evil Sect's gaze to cast towards the city, defend the town, and wait for the change. Perhaps the imperial government's reinforcements will come, and then we'll have a chance of survival." No matter if the cult succeeds or fails, it will be able to relieve the pressure for a period of time for our town. Relying on the wall, arrow towers, various defensive systems I have deployed in the town, as well as the village warriors I have trained in every day, as well as the food in the town, we will be able to last until the end of the war in Long County City and the arrival of the reinforcements from the imperial government. "

"True." Hong Yu thought about it carefully. Along the way, most of the people in the town were indeed the elderly, women, children, and children. These people could not travel far, not to mention bring fine rations with them.

Long Prefecture City was surrounded by two great evil sects, and a great battle could break out at any time. These elderly, women and children entering the city were a burden. If the city was destroyed, there was no chance of them surviving.

But after a moment's thought, he realized that Lanchev's plan to 'hold the town' was marvelous.

The main force of the Demonic Sect was attracted to the prefectural city of Long. They had no way of being separated from the city, leaving only the scattered troops and a motley crew, unable to pose any threat to the defensive system of the town. If the Demonic Sect succeeded, it would not be able to care about a small town for a short period of time. Moreover, if a county's capital was lost, the imperial government would be furious, the army would continue to strengthen, and the Demonic Sect would be annihilated.

However, this plan was based on the fact that the town had the ability to 'hold out'. Without the army, there would be no food, and the people would be dispirited. Even if there were tens of thousands of people in the town, it could still be broken by a few evildoers, causing a tragedy.

This showed the power of Lan Qifu. He alone commanded a large town of over ten thousand people, but when faced with the evil followers, not only did the town not fall into internal strife, but it also united the people's will. He commanded the construction of arrow towers, defensive walls, various defensive structures, and even trained the brave villagers to prepare food for battle.

"This person is amazing!" Hong Yu looked him in the eye and praised him secretly. He then moved his mind and bowed deeply towards him with respect, "Mr. Lan, I am lacking people right now. Would Mister be willing to advise me on Hong Yu and be my assistant's hanger-on? Of course, this still depends on Mister's intentions. Hong Yu would not dare to force it. "

In fact, he lacked an advisor of the wise who could take charge of all kinds of affairs on his own. This Lan Qifu in front of him was quite capable, had great wisdom, and had a pure background. If he could recruit him, he would take the first step towards establishing a team, and would be of extraordinary assistance in the future.

Hong Yu naturally knew about the principle of being polite and virtuous. When facing talented people, he was never stingy in expressing his desire.

"He really came!" "He really isn't a mortal. He finally didn't show it to the blind man!" Lan Qifu nodded inwardly. He knew that his words just now had displayed the brilliance of his ability and had been seen through by Hong Yu. Hong Yu had even thrown out an olive branch at him, not sparing any effort to show his humility!

He hurriedly stepped forward to help Hong Yu up, and instead bowed deeply to the end as he waved his hands repeatedly, "Can't, can't! This old man does not deserve the title of Duke Yu's great gift, Duke Yu has a golden body, and has no small ambitions. He is especially worried about the people of this world, and knows that the Son of Heaven is no different from the common people, and that water can carry boats, but can also overturn boats. This old one has the good fortune to be able to be highly regarded by Duke Yu, but this old one admits that I am inexperienced and shallow, and will inevitably disappoint Duke Yu in the future. "

"Mr Lan is too modest. With Mr Lan's assistance, Hongyu will definitely be like a tiger that has wings. When Mr Lan bends down to pay for his actions, Hongyu's luck is actually as good as the sky." Hong Yu was overjoyed. He knew things were about right, but he still maintained his humility and did not show it on his face to avoid leaving a bad impression in the other's eyes.

"Then this old man shall thank Duke Yu. A thousand miles is a common occurrence, but a few are not. To think that I, Lanchev, am seventy years old and still have the possibility of an ambition. " Lan Qifu didn't know what he was thinking, but he let out a faint sigh. He was no longer humble. Instead, his eyes sparkled as a sense of heroism soared to the heavens.

A BMW can travel thousands of miles a day, but it is not a happy horse.

To call himself a Thousand-Li Horse and Hong Yu as Bo Le, it was a testament to the talent and ambition of this man!

"The Mourning of the Sovereign, the matter of loyalty to the Lord. "Since I have agreed to Duke Yu's request, then this old man will naturally give advice for the duke to share his worries. I know that Duke Yu's position in the imperial court has been suppressed by other princes, and this trip to Liangzhou will be even more troublesome, he will be punished if there was even the slightest mistake. The cult and the barbarian race also have plans for the prince, and it can be said that the situation is imminent, but this old man has a few plans, I can tell Duke Yu about them …"

Lan Qifu decided to pay Hong Yu for his words. He immediately replaced Hong Yu's words with his own identity. He was well aware of everything, so he told Hong Yu his views one by one.

Hong Yu listened carefully without interrupting. When he heard this person's words, he immediately felt enlightened. Sometimes he would nod in agreement, sometimes he would exclaim in admiration. In his heart, he admired this person even more.

Old man's heart is set on a thousand miles!

Lan Qifu was born in his early seventies, yet he was strong and unyielding. He faced Hong Yu, gave pointers to the world, and commented on the situation!
