Wanbao Lady

Chapter 445: The Battle Between Two Factions

Hearing this, Chongfan wanted to agree, but when he thought of the grudge between the Numo Ghost King and the other party, he couldn't help but have a headache.

If we go there rashly, it would be bad!

She changed her mind and said, "I am willing to go with the princess, but the Holy Mountain is in Xisha Country, and the Xisha Ghost King is still resentful and may not agree."

She then said, "I went into the Holy Mountain with him back then. He was injured by the Qiming Beast. I asked him to swear to divide the yin and yang of his country and helped him. We have some friendship. Why don't I test his attitude first and then discuss this matter with him."

Hearing this, the princess looked at her in surprise and said with a smile, "I was wondering why that guy suddenly changed his temper. It turns out that it was really thanks to you, fellow Taoist!"

She nodded, "Well, then I'll follow your advice."

On Qingling Mountain.

Strolling leisurely among the flowers and plants, Chongfan contacted Bayan first and asked him to inquire about the latest situation of the Xisha Kingdom.

However, she learned that the situation in the Xisha Kingdom has undergone tremendous changes compared to before she went into seclusion.

"My Lady, the atmosphere in Xisha Country is not very good right now!"

The shadow of Bayan projected in the air shook his head.

"What happened?"

However, Ba Yan sighed with an air of old age, "The division of yin and yang was going well at first. Even if there were objections, the Nuo Mo Ghost King could suppress them! But later, the objections became more and more numerous. Even if it was to scare the monkeys, the ghost kings, both big and small, only stayed quiet for a while, as they had different thoughts. Later, some ghost kings even began to secretly communicate with the Ghost Kingdom!"

Through Bayan's narration, Chongfan gradually gained a general understanding of everything that had happened in the Xisha Kingdom over the years.

Ghosts exist because of obsession.

Love, hate, and vengeance can all become bargaining chips for them to escape reincarnation and stay in the human world.

But compared to "love", there are too many ghosts that are caused by negative emotions such as "hate" and "reluctance". Such ghosts have a strong desire to attack and destroy.

In their eyes, mortals are mostly just "ants" that can be ignored, "toys" that can be played with and used, and "two-legged sheep" that can be eaten.

Although there were restrictions from the ghost king Nuo Mo before, which prohibited the ghosts from harming their believers, there is a saying that goes, every policy from the top has a countermeasure from the bottom.

Be it covering someone's head, secretly plotting to kill someone, or deceiving someone, this group of ghosts always finds a way to have fun.

Nuo Mo, the ghost king, issued an order to gather all the ghosts and divide them into yin and yang. Now, they can no longer do whatever they want to mortals. Doesn't this affect the interests of the ghosts?

The initial opponents were suppressed by the Numa Ghost King, so the decree was successfully implemented.

But as time went on, more and more opponents emerged, and some even secretly united to overthrow Nuo Mo Ghost King and annex the entire Xisha Kingdom!

The two sides were divided into two factions.

One of the factions, headed by the Nuo Mo Ghost King, includes 40% of the ghost kings of all sizes in the Xisha Kingdom, members of the Nuo Mo cult, some human monks, and a large number of non-negatively obsessed ghosts. It is called the Reformists.

The other faction is headed by one of the Dongxu Ghost Kings, and includes 60% of the ghost kings of all sizes in Xisha Kingdom, the evil cultivators of Xisha Kingdom, and a large number of ghosts with negative obsessions. They are called the opposition.

A fight broke out between the two sides. Fortunately, there was the Numo Ghost King, who was in the Hedao period, who severely suppressed the opposition forces and severely damaged them.

But this part of the opposition still refused to give up. They surrendered on the surface, but in fact they secretly contacted the ghost country to the north of the Paracel Islands, hoping to use internal and external forces to completely take over the Paracel Islands and get a share of the pie.

It just so happened that the leader of the Ghost Country had already had this intention, so he went with the flow. He not only accepted the opposition who defected to the Ghost Country during the struggle, but also joined forces with the remnants of the opposition in the Xisha Islands and took the opportunity to attack its border.

As a result, there have been constant border frictions between the two sides in recent years, and the domestic atmosphere has been quite solemn.

"I see."

After learning about his recent situation, Chongfan had an idea in his mind and an idea came to his mind.

-

Xisha Kingdom, Nuomo Temple.

At this moment, the Nuomo Ghost King was seen sitting on the throne with his eyes closed, allowing the Ghost Weaver Girl to gently rub his forehead.

"What's going on at the northern border?" he asked in a deep voice.

Upon hearing this, a Yangshen Ghost King dressed as a military officer stepped out and said, "They are now stationed outside the border barrier. It seems that they are still accumulating troops."

The general paused, "Currently, we have gathered two Dongxu and five Yangshen."

After hearing this, the many ghost cultivators and human cultivators present looked at each other, all with tightly frowned brows.

Generally speaking, in a war, a Hedao-level being, as a national treasure, would not be easily put to the test.

Once the fight begins, it means that both sides will be in a fight to the death.

Therefore, on the battlefield, those in the Dongxu Stage have incredible combat power.

Originally, the two countries were evenly matched in strength, and there were also human cultivators in the Xisha Kingdom. Therefore, even though the two sides disliked each other, at most there were only some minor disputes and frictions.

However, as domestic opposition forces were suppressed and even defected to the Ghost Country, the balance of power between the two sides tilted somewhat, so much so that the Ghost Country began to have evil thoughts and wanted to reach out.

"Now, there are only Lord Wuqi and Lord Fengyuan at the northern border, and Lord Haidan is injured. I'm afraid..."

The general looked cautiously at the Ghost King in front of him, then secretly glanced at the middle-aged man with a face as pale as paper beside him, and bowed his head deeply.

Xisha Country has a total of five Dongxu masters, four from the ghost clan and one from the human clan. Two of them defected from the ghost clan. Although the two defectors were also seriously injured, it was a real loss of top combat power for Xisha Country.

If the two defectors can recover from their injuries, it will be a great help to the Ghost Country!

Judging from the current posture of the Ghost Country, it seems that they are planning to make a big move!

Obviously, many monks present had thought of this, and their faces were as gloomy as water.

But the ghost man with a pale face and weak breath stepped out and bowed solemnly, saying: "Lord Nuo Mo, please let me go to the border..."

Before he could finish his words, the man suddenly bent over and coughed violently. His cough was so heart-wrenching that ghost lines were faintly visible on his face.

"Hai Dan, just stay in the shrine and recover from your injuries! Don't try to be stubborn."

Nuo Mo Ghost King waved his hand and did not allow for refusal.

He tapped the armrest of the throne regularly, his brows slightly furrowed in a frown.

Do you really want to take action yourself?

But once you get going, the other side will inevitably get going as well, and the war will inevitably escalate.

By then, even if I wanted to stop, it would be difficult to stop...

Just when he was struggling with his feelings, suddenly, an idea came to his mind.

Then he said to the people below: "Everyone wait for a moment. I will make a decision on this matter later."

As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately disappeared from the throne, leaving the ghost cultivators and human cultivators staring at each other in bewilderment.
