You were asked to assist Di Xin, but you made him the Human Emperor?

Xiqi and Great Shang were currently in a state of truce.

I came all the way here to help you attack Xiqi, and yet you're not deploying your troops, instead choosing to recuperate here.

Though Lu Yue's expression was unfriendly, he still carried the demeanor of a master. He didn't voice his true thoughts, only showing a hint of displeasure.

Meanwhile, Lu Yue's disciples were all arrogant.

After all, they were Immortals of the Sect of Interception, powerful and noble. From the bottom of their hearts, they looked down upon the generals in Deng Jiugong's army.

As Lu Yue's disciples finished speaking, Tailuan's expression darkened.

Tailuan was grateful for their help and provided them with good food and drink daily.

However, insulting his lord was unacceptable.

"Who was scared away?"

It was at this moment that Deng Jiugong appeared.

"Marshal."

Seeing Deng Jiugong return, Tailuan was overjoyed.

The Marshal had been away for over a year, and he had finally returned today.

"Who is in the camp?"

Deng Jiugong asked.

He had already sensed five people in the camp. Four of them had profound cultivation, even higher than his own.

As for the fifth person, Deng Jiugong couldn't discern their cultivation level at all.

"Marshal, these are the Immortals from Nine Dragon Island, invited by the National Preceptor Shen Gongbao!"

Tailuan whispered as a reminder.

He knew these Immortals were not easy to deal with and were rather arrogant and overbearing. He worried his Marshal might offend them.

After all, they were here to help them.

"I am a Qi Refiner from Nine Dragon Island, my surname is Lu and my given name is Yue. Shen Gongbao invited me to assist Marshal Deng in breaking Xiqi and capturing the rebels. However, Marshal Deng has been avoiding me."

Lu Yue snorted coldly and said.

Upon hearing this, Deng Jiugong's expression froze.

He already knew their origins.

Earlier, Deng Jiugong had guessed that the powerful presence that suddenly appeared in the camp was likely a disciple of the Sect of Interception.

He hadn't expected that the one helping him this time would be Lu Yue, the Plague Immortal.

Rumor had it that the Tongtian Sect Master accepted disciples without discrimination, and many of his followers were beasts with fur and horns or creatures hatched from eggs.

Lu Yue's true form was something he couldn't discern, but he knew this person was powerful, likely a Grand Unity Golden Immortal.

Lu Yue's disciples were all stronger than him.

However, Deng Jiugong knew that the Primordial Heavenly Venerate looked down on the disciples of the Tongtian Sect Master because the Sect of Interception's disciples were a mixed bag, acting recklessly and causing chaos within the sect.

There were even quite a few Sect of Interception disciples who resorted to cannibalism.

But regardless of how the Sect of Interception disciples behaved, since they were here to help Deng Jiugong, he couldn't afford to be impolite.

"So you are an Immortal from Nine Dragon Island. I was not in the camp before, so please forgive my lack of courtesy!"

Deng Jiugong said.

"Since Marshal Deng has returned, we should discuss how to take down Xiqi!"

Lu Yue's expression softened and he said.

Deng Jiugong nodded at this.

Originally, Deng Jiugong was reluctant to deploy troops so early.

After all, Xiqi dared not send troops, so they only needed to defend.

As long as Xiqi couldn't break through his defenses, they would never reach Chaoge.

As the commander of the army, with reinforcements having arrived, he had no choice.

After all, Deng Jiugong's own cultivation was not high, and his generals were even weaker. To resist the Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect, he needed the help of the Sect of Interception.

However, even though the disciples of the Sect of Interception were here to help, Deng Jiugong didn't want them to dictate his actions.

Everything still had to be done according to his wishes as Marshal.

Otherwise, if the disciples of the Sect of Interception acted on their own and were quickly killed, Deng Jiugong would not be able to contend with the Twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect.

As for Kong Xuan, it was best not to reveal his true strength too early.

If a Saint were to be attracted and Kong Xuan subdued, Deng Jiugong would be on his own.

"Jiang Ziya has many generals under him, such as Yang Jian, Nezha, and Lei Zhenzi, along with many other disciples of the Chan Sect. Do you have confidence in defeating them?"

Deng Jiugong asked.

"Marshal Deng, don't worry, we'll take care of these few!"

Before Lu Yue could speak, several of his disciples said confidently.

Just then, Tailuan spoke.

"And Tu Xingsun!"

"Marshal, Yang Jian infiltrated the camp earlier and colluded with Jiang Ziya to rescue Tu Xingsun!"

Upon hearing this, Deng Jiugong's expression stiffened.

With a thought, he indeed discovered that Tu Xingsun was no longer in the dungeon.

"This!!!"

Deng Jiugong was stunned.

"What are the casualties in the army?"

Deng Jiugong asked.

"There were no casualties, thanks to Marshal Kong's timely intervention!"

Tailuan said.

Deng Jiugong frowned slightly.

Alright!

Deng Jiugong was helpless.

Before he left, Kong Xuan had promised him that the army would be safe.

The soldiers in the army were indeed safe, but Tu Xingsun had been rescued.

If Kong Xuan had truly intervened, Jiang Ziya and the others would not have been able to rescue Tu Xingsun.

This Kong Xuan was a bit too soft-hearted!

He had let the tiger return to the mountain!

However, this way, if Tu Xingsun dared to fight, Deng Jiugong could kill him without any hesitation.

"In that case, we will immediately send troops to attack Xiqi!"

As soon as Deng Jiugong finished speaking, he summoned all the generals under his command.

Kong Xuan, Tailuan, Deng Xiu, Deng Chanyu, Sun Yanhong, Zhao Sheng, and many other generals all appeared before Deng Jiugong.

Looking at these people, Deng Jiugong nodded.

They had finally all reached the Earth Immortal Realm!

Even though their cultivation had improved, and they had truly entered the ranks of Immortals, it was only the lowest level of cultivation, the Earth Immortal Realm.

For this battle, he would still have to rely on Lu Yue's disciples!

After reorganizing the troops, led by Deng Jiugong, a vast army of 300,000 marched towards Xiqi.

Among them, the strongest was naturally Kong Xuan, followed by Lu Yue.

However, Kong Xuan was riding a warhorse, extremely low-key, maintaining his cultivation at the Perfection of the True Immortal Realm.

Seeing that Deng Jiugong was at this cultivation level, Kong Xuan gave the impression that he was also at this level.

"Marshal Deng, your deputy marshal's strength is quite good!"

Along the way, Lu Yue looked at Kong Xuan and said.

The others had just reached the Earth Immortal Realm, while Kong Xuan had already reached the Perfection of the True Immortal Realm, with the same cultivation as Deng Jiugong.

And he looked so young!

"He's alright!"
