Chapter 673: Chapter 535 Execution of the Heart Scheme + Chapter 536 Five Desires Confusion_3

It turns out to be a loss after all.

The most critical point, however, is that we should focus all our efforts on taking down Zhao Mountain now, not suitable to divide our forces for other concerns.

As long as we can take this one prefecture under our wing, connecting it with the two prefectures we already hold, I may very well advance to the Peak of Martial Intent in one go, transforming all my spiritual power and pushing fiercely to the next level.

With that, the power under my command will also rise like the tide lifts a boat.

Even Bai He might benefit significantly.

That’s the fundamental thing.

"Let’s begin, the day to breach the city is today."

Zhou Ping’an looked back at the three thousand cavalrymen lined up neatly behind him, feeling their fiery combat spirit.

He couldn’t help but nod silently.

He knew that this was an undefeated sharp will bred from following him through countless battles and emerging victorious.

As time went on.

These troops under my command will become stronger and stronger, and eventually, they will be an invincible army that sweeps across all directions.

"Master, Elder, it’ll trouble you this time to protect those who are calling out, to block any tricks from within the city."

"Don’t worry, Ping’an, if it were a direct confrontation with the bald monks of Xuan Shan, neither your master nor your Elder can be of much help, but it’s easy for us to just block some underhanded tactics outside the city walls. This time, we’ll get to see your ingenious skills that can turn the clouds with a flip of your hand and bring rain with a turn of it."

Su Lianxue said with a light laugh.

She became more fond of this disciple she had accepted halfway through, and truth be told, at the beginning, she took him under her wing mostly out of respect for Lin Huaiyu, considering him a sort of connection.

But she could never have anticipated.

That this "connection" would turn out to be the biggest fortune in her life.

Thinking back, her own vision actually wasn’t all that great.

While Lin Huaiyu was certainly a once-in-a-millennium Cultivation genius, Zhou Ping’an was clearly even greater. In such a short time, she, as a master, had come to rely on her disciple for support and assistance.

Whether Longevity is possible in the future also depends on how far this disciple can go.

While those on the mountain are still hesitating and watching from the sidelines, she had already keenly sensed that this might very well be the greatest opportunity.

Others might think, given Zhou Ping’an’s Cultivation in his youth, his current level and strength are quite exceptional but not necessarily astonishing.

Those legends about people starting Practicing Martial Arts in their twenties are just distracting rumors.

But Su Lianxue would absolutely not think so.

Although she hasn’t spent much time with the two newly accepted Disciples, she had more or less seen through their personalities and knew that they simply disdained lying about their Cultivation.

Then, mere months to reach the Ninth Level Mortal Refinement, and moreover, combat power comparable to the True Martial Late Stage...

It’s simply myth-like.

The only explanation is that this disciple must be the reincarnation of a celestial being, which would make sense.

But if not, and this was achieved through sheer talent and hard work, that’s truly terrifying.

Even more frightening than Bai He reaching the True Martial Late Stage Dharma Form Realm at the age of eighteen.

To Cultivate to such an overwhelming level in six months.

Then, what about a year, ten years?

It’s unimaginable the heights he could reach.

The bonds of affection, however profound, also need careful nurturing.

Especially when it’s merely a nominal master-disciple relationship.

If she doesn’t put her heart into it, when the time comes, and her disciple stands in the sky like the sun while she can only quietly look up, like a speck of dust on the ground, it would be unbearable.

Gu Qinghe laughed and glanced at his wife, his earlobes secretly reddening, but he did not speak.

Nevertheless, he nodded emphatically, taking on the responsibility.

He still cared about his image.

He had never seen any master so blatantly flatter their own disciple.

Trying not to laugh, he reminded himself not to make any mistakes.

As for Su Youxian.

Others might not see it, but Zhou Ping’an noticed that the Supreme Elder, at some point, had secretly donned a suit of leather armor, with the torn clothing underneath stained with streaks of blood, striding solemnly behind someone shouting scolds at the gatekeepers as if he were a battle-hardened veteran.

With his face weathered and beard unkempt, had Zhou Ping’an not been able to sense his presence clearly, he would have almost failed to recognize him, mistaking him for just an ordinary old soldier in the army.

Four loud-mouthed generals spread out in a line, small flags fluttering behind them, chests puffed out and heads raised, with tears rolling down before they even spoke.

The tremendous wailing sound was like thunder rolling across the sky, resonating both outside the city walls and in the ears of tens of thousands of citizens within the city.

The sound was so mournful it made listeners’ hearts ache and eyes tear up.

As if they had encountered the most tragic event in the world, their cries to heaven went unanswered, and their pleas to the earth met with silence...

"Whew..."

Zhou Ping’an was prepared.

But like the thousands under his command, he still took a deep, cold breath.

It was too eerie.

If encountered during the dead of night, it would be irresistible not to slash it as if it were a ghost or demon.

"Is this wailing tune taught by you?"

Green Lady covered her mouth with a light laugh, her eyes sparkling, looking left and right as she shrugged her neck and said with feigned irritation, "Don’t be so loud; this is the howling mountain and river tune. Originally, it wasn’t that unpleasant to listen to, but they lack insight, overexerted themselves and their voices cracked..."

"I was thinking since we want to move the hearts of the city’s citizens, we might as well apply some technique, otherwise dry shouting may be ignored."
