Hearing the words of the leader of a first-rate faction, Tian Jue's eldest senior brother got up and flicked his sleeves as he coldly said, "Is it alright if more people go in because of the dead?"

"Milord …" When the few leaders of the first-rate powers heard their senior apprentice brother say so, they all cupped their fists and greeted at the same time.

"Alright, before the south and we start a pincer attack against the Western barbarians, don't even think about bringing this up again! You can leave now! " The eldest senior brother turned around and the several leaders of the first-rate powers sighed as they turned around and left.

On the other side, Tian Jue was frowning as he looked carefully at the sand table. This sand table was the epitome of the confrontation between the western barbarian army and the clans and sects.

Hearing the footsteps, Tian Jue raised his head and saw Heng Clan's leader and a group of first-rate powers entering the house.

"Seniors, it's great that you've come at the right time. I've seen the guards of the city gate tower crying and I've thought of a plan. Seniors, how about it?" Tian Jue said with a smile as he walked in front of Sect Leader Heng and the others.

When the Sect Leader heard this, he suddenly knelt down on one knee and said, "If Master has a plan, he can do it. We will obey!"

Tian Jue panicked a little upon seeing this. Just as he was about to support the Heng Clan's Sect Leader, he was surprised to see that the other people all knelt down as well. "We will definitely obey!"

"This …" Tian Jue frowned as he looked at the actions of these famous people. For a moment, he was at a loss for words.

"My lord, the dead are not taken, the hearts of men are scattered!" The sect leader said with a bitter face.

"As expected, he has reached this step." Tian Jue frowned and muttered, "Seniors, please rise. Junior's plan requires five days, during which time no one is allowed to disobey the order."

"Yes!"

"The first order, do not use troops or question others because of your emotions."

"Yes!"

After he finished speaking, he sent out orders to Tian Jue. After he had tidied up his clothes, he got up and went to the city gate tower. In fact, after the great battle, Tian Jue often came to the city gate to observe the feelings of his enemies and his own people.

That was why he knew that the people on the city gate tower were crying when they saw the battlefield, especially when the crows and other animals came.

Upon arriving at the city gate tower, Tian Jue couldn't help but loudly sigh. "It's fine if we don't accept the corpses on the battlefield, but we're just afraid that the Western barbarians will dig out the ones that have been taken by them!" "If that happens, we won't be able to hold it in and will definitely lose."

Hearing Tian Jue's sigh, the people on top of the city gate tower all turned to look at him. Although they had received the order, there were still many who were very angry.

Sure enough, on the second day, the Western barbarians dug up the corpses that had been buried in the ground and sent a letter to the Central Plains' side informing them that they had done so.

The Central Plains's forces were all so angry that they wanted to fight against the Western barbarians. Fortunately, Tian Jue had already explained it to them earlier, so they did not take action despite their anger.

However, others could not understand Tian Jue's actions. The leaders of the first-rate factions came to find Tian Jue. The sect master knelt on one knee, clasped his hands, and said:

"Master, why didn't you collect the corpses of the people who died on the battlefield? Why did you bury them?"

"Seniors, there is no need to be anxious. Since this junior has already promised to collect the corpses of those who have sacrificed, I will definitely collect them for you. You should withdraw first. Isn't there still three days to the agreement?" Tian Jue said with a smile as he looked at the worried faces of the crowd.

When the crowd heard Tian Jue's words, they didn't say anything more and turned to leave.

On the third day, Tian Jue ascended the city walls once again. As he chatted with the city guards, Tian Jue sighed and said:

"It's a good thing that most of the people here don't know what the Western barbarians are up to, otherwise they would have immediately rushed out of the city. At that time, we would have lost nearly half of our people compared to the Western barbarians, and if we were to face them head on, countless people would die. The Central Plains would have become the stronghold of the Western barbarians."

The people on top of the city gate tower looked at Tian Jue in shock. One of them said, "The Western barbarians have taken our territory. Quite a few citizens have died to the Steel Cavalry. What could be more despicable than this?"

Tian Jue shook his head and sighed, "Sigh, how can I tell you all that? "Wouldn't that make me a sinner?"

The western barbarians …

A soldier in charge of gathering information brought Tian Jue back with a sigh from the tower.

"Then is the direct disciple of the Rainstorm Sect's Sect Leader really speaking like that?" A luxuriously dressed middle-aged man from the western barbarians frowned as he asked the soldier in charge of scouting the area.

"Reporting to the khan, it's absolutely true." The soldier looked up from his kneeling position.

"How did he know what we were doing?" The western barbarian man smiled as he asked the rest of them.

"Reporting to the khan, this man appeared in the Southern Clans' territory before, and later he organized a group of people to fight against us in the south." The middle-aged man in black armor said.

"Khan, you've done what you did before. You can't do this!" A South African woman dressed in revealing clothes advised.

"Why is that?" Khan asked as he looked at the Southern girl.

"This action of Tian Jue is obviously trying to arouse the anger of their people. There is a saying in the Central Plains: 'A sorrowful soldier must win'!" The woman from the Southern Clan clasped her fists and said.

"Haha, this' Khan 'doesn't understand the schemes and tricks of your Nan Clan and Central Plains. This' Khan 'only wants them to take the initiative to fight, and this' Khan's soldiers' will fight!" The Western Khan stood up and laughed.

It would be a lie to say that the khan had not planned anything, but how could they have infiltrated so many people into the Central Plains, causing the entire Central Plains to be covered in smoke?

Let's not talk about the strategy of how to reach a common understanding with the Southern Clan and how to use the Southern Clan as a springboard to simultaneously attack from both the Southwest and the South?

It wasn't that he didn't know how to scheme as he had said, but it was because he had won too easily. He could only see that there was only one piece of land that had yet to be occupied. He could not wait to expand.

Thus, the Western Khai Khan ordered his men to vividly describe how the Western barbarians had dealt with the women of the Central Plains and all the people they had captured. He then ordered his men to read it aloud on a piece of paper, which was then transmitted to the ears of the Central Plains side.

At the beginning, only the people on the city gate tower knew of this news. Later, it spread from one to ten, and from one to a hundred, it spread to everyone's ears.

At first, everyone thought that the prisoners had just been killed. However, it was only later on that they realized just how hateful these Western barbarians were.

All of their eyes were glowered with fury. Many people were crying with grief. After all, one or two people they hadn't met during the war had fallen into the hands of the Western barbarians.

Tian Jue walked among the crowd disguised as one. He could clearly see the emotions of everyone around him.

As he walked, the leaders of the first-rate factions blocked his way. This time, he did not only have a few of them, but also many of the first-rate and second-rate factions' leaders.

They stopped Tian Jue and knelt on one knee. When the crowd looked over, Tian Jue had instantly become the center of attention.

"Just because the Western barbarians don't say anything doesn't mean that they haven't done anything. Once they do, you all will understand just how hateful these people are." Tian Jue said excitedly.

"The Heng Clan has taken the initiative to fight!" The Sect Leader of the Eternal Gate cupped his fists and said.

After that, the various sects and families all reported their names and requested to fight. The rest of them knew who Tian Jue was, and after roughly understanding the situation, they all kneeled down and clasped their hands.
