"Hey, even if you are willing to let Bai Lian's mother go, and suddenly stop here, it's really too obvious!"

The blood-colored inner demon swallowed a lot of negative emotions, and his stomach was round and his mouth was full of oil. He began to move again, picking his teeth while saying coldly.

"No, don't you think this war between living and dead is really a bit strange?"

Li Yao looked at the endless black mountains under the night sky, and said thoughtfully, "Bai Lian's mother finally took advantage of the natural disaster to gather thousands of ghost troops. It looked so powerful, but she was about to collapse. She didn't even support her for a day, and she was defeated. This is too scary!"

"Nonsense, we have five super Nascent Souls here, plus dozens of ordinary Nascent Souls, and the court's Lei Fengying camp carried the naval cannons of the Star Sea Battleship. They are his fucking naval cannons!"

The blood-colored inner demon digged his nostrils and said, "Most of the ghost soldiers and ghosts of the White Lotus mother are just recruited. If it is converted into a living person, they are mobs carrying feces forks. They are purely a group of mobs, and they can't beat them, which is normal!"

"That's even more strange!"

Li Yao heard the roar of the old mother Bailian from deep into the mountains and forests, and her brows became tighter and tighter. "These information is not a top secret. The Lei Fengying Camp does not know the earth escape technique. It drives over all the way. You only need to put a few ghosts in the air to reconnaissance to grasp their march route, and calculate the time they arrived at Dongning Mansion based on their speed and the terrain ahead."

"And we Central Plains reinforcements have been struggling in Hu Xiaocheng for ten days. Almost all the Southeast sects know about Qi Zhongdao, Ba Xiaoyu, Yan Liren, Master Kuchan and me. How could she not know that we would appear on the battlefield?"

"Five super Nascent Souls, plus dozens of ordinary Nascent Souls, plus the cultivators of the thirty-three sects in the southeast, and the elite Lei Fengying camp of the court, are simply an invincible military force. As long as the old mother of Bailian has a little bit of the most basic calculation power, she should calculate that based on the mobs she just recruited, there is no chance to win at all, right?"

"So, the question is, one thing we have always overlooked is why did Bailian's mother have to attack Dongning Mansion?"

The blood-colored inner demon was stunned for a long time and said, "Dongning Mansion is the largest city in the southeast, and it is also the mountain gate of the thirty-three cultivation sects. It treasures countless crystals, magic weapons and jade crystals. These things are of great help to the cultivation of the Yin Soldiers and Ghost Army. As long as it absorbs a large number of crystals and the spiritual energy contained in the jade crystals, perhaps countless lonely ghosts will evolve into old ghosts, and the elderly ghosts will become even more vicious ghost kings! Isn't this the best reason?"

"Then she must be able to conquer Dongning Mansion!"

Li Yao said calmly, "From common sense, as long as the mother of Bailian is not Zhutou San, she will never know that she will not be able to capture Dongning Mansion with the help of the Central Plains cultivators and Lei Feng Camp! Even if there are many secret treasures in Dongning Mansion, crystal stones and jade crystals, they are all moons in the water and flowers on the other side, and things that are out of reach!"

"Maybe, maybe she's the third one?"

The blood-colored inner demon said unconvincedly, "I see that Bai Lian's mother's Taoist heart is obviously based on 'injustice', 'anger', and 'hatred' as the source of strength. Perhaps she was the family destroyed by some evil cultivators in the past, and died miserably. Therefore, she resented the cultivators all over the world and wanted to take revenge. Therefore, she had a glimmer of chance to attack the city ruled by the cultivators at all costs!"

"Impossible, impossible!"

Li Yao shook his head repeatedly and said, "I am qualified to be among the 'Top Ten Masters of the Ancient Saint Realm'. If you convert the cultivation level of a living person, you have almost reached the peak of the Nascent Soul Stage. Even if you really take 'hatred' as the heart of Tao, you will never be completely lost by anger and launch such a reckless attack! I always feel that what Bai Lian's mother started to say to us and howling like a pig now, all have a trace of performance. She is a little artificial and a bit exaggerated!"

The blood-colored inner demon was stunned for a moment and said, "Since you said that her performance was a bit too much, then it's true. After all, you are a master in the performance field!"

"And, this large-scale siege is obviously different from the previous style of Bailian's mother!"

Li Yao's eyes shining brightly and continued to analyze, "In the past, although the White Lotus Sect rages southeast, it has never attacked a large city with heavy troops. Instead, it looks for towns with weak defense, or small and medium-sized sects with single and lonely powers, and attacks one by one. Before being wiped out by the army, it can always deal with dozens of towns and counties for a long time, destroying dozens of towns and counties, and killing several small and medium-sized sects!"

"It can be seen that Bai Lian's mother has a very clear mind and knows deeply what her strengths are. She can play to her strengths and avoid her weaknesses every time, and bully the weak with her strength!"

"This natural disaster is huge in scale, almost affecting hundreds of prefectures in the southeast, and there are dying victims everywhere, allowing Bai Lian's mother to recruit millions of ghost soldiers and ghost soldiers in such a short time!"

"If I were Bailian's mother and had such a large army in hand, why would I be anxious to attack Dongning Mansion, the first strong city in the southeast? Isn't it great to continue to follow the old methods to lead the army all the way south, leave Dongning Mansion far away, and attack those towns and local sects with weak defense, loot the spiritual fields there, and destroy the mountain gate there?"

"In this way, on the one hand, we can get a large amount of spiritual fields and sects to provide support; we can also temper ghost soldiers in small-scale battles, turning the original mob into elite soldiers of hundreds of refinings; most importantly, the thirty-three most powerful sects on the southeast ground are all huddled in Dongning Mansion. As long as they do not touch their fundamental interests, they may not be determined and fight with the White Lotus Ghost Army. They even have the mentality of "sitting on the mountain to watch the tiger fight" and watch the White Lotus Ghost Army weaken the power of other local sects!"

"You have also seen the experience of these few months that the cultivation sects in the ancient world are purely a mess. As long as they are not forced to the point of nowhere, their war efficiency will be very, very low!"

"Even I can think of such a simple idea. Moreover, Bai Lian's mother has done this for dozens of times in the past. Why did she do the opposite this time? She gathered a large army in such a hurry to attack the city and defeat it, it was like..."

The blood-colored inner demon said with a slight slight voice: "It's like I'm trying to lose on purpose!"

"That's right!"

Li Yao's eyes lit up and he snapped his fingers, "It's this feeling that she was deliberately defeated!"

"But, there's no reason!"

The blood-colored inner demon was in the depths of Li Yao's brain, carrying his hands on his back, and wandering around, "What's the benefit of her intentional failure? Is it because she was still ambushed in front after the fraud?"

Li Yao looked into the not-tall forest in front of him, and this speculation was quickly denied by him.

After a false defeat, lure the enemy into depth, siege them from all sides, gather and annihilate them - this is a very superb command art. You must have a super elite trained team of super elites like arm-to-arm commanders, and commanders of famous generals who win every battle, so that they can be defeated.

With this newly pieced together ghost army, they can maintain a dignified formation, and be able to obey orders and advance without retreat. Even if the mother of Bailian is in power, once they collapse, even if they are defeated, they still want to gather together to fight an annihilation war. This is purely a fool!

This is not a game. Even the ghost soldiers and ghost soldiers have a saying of "morality". After the morale collapses, many new dead souls disappeared directly. What kind of counterattacks are there!

Moreover, in the cultivation world, there are also brave generals who are proficient in command art. They have long released their horses to reconnaise them within a radius of thousands of miles. It is impossible for them to hide the elite of the ghost army in every corner!

The southeast area is smooth and although there are continuous hills, it is not the 100,000 mountains that are towering into the clouds in the southwest. The hills here are not steep and most of the forests have been explored and developed. There are neither powerful beasts dormant, nor mixed ghost caves underground. It is quite difficult to use for escape, let alone ambushing them on all sides!

"White Lotus Old Mother, what is the purpose?"

Li Yao was not ready to fight against Bai Lian’s mother, and the fog in his heart became more and more intense, so he was even more reluctant to catch up with him stupidly.

"Conspiracy, there must be a huge conspiracy here!"

Li Yao said seriously to the blood-colored inner demon, "Don't you think it's very strange? We have been in the ancient sage world for half a year, but we have been smooth sailing all the way. We have never encountered a huge conspiracy!"

"This is unreasonable!"

"From past experience, shouldn't we encounter a big conspiracy that can destroy the world every time we go to a new world without taking three or five steps?"

Blood-colored inner demon: "...whatever, just be happy."

Li Yao high-high: "Bai Lian's mother is definitely a fraudulent defeat. There must be a huge conspiracy here. If it is not in front, it is in our... behind!"

Li Yao was shocked and turned his head to look in the direction of Dongning Mansion.

The cultivators in Dongning Mansion have come out in full bloom.

They hated the White Lotus Ghost Army to the core, and insisted on taking advantage of the other party's defeat to kill them, chasing the lonely ghosts who had fled all over the place, gradually getting further and further away from Dongning Mansion.

There were only a large number of disaster victims and a very small number of left-behind cultivators left in Dongning Mansion, which seemed a little deserted and empty.

"Hey, don't you think that Bai Lian's mother is cheating and is trying to lure the tiger out of the mountain, right?"

The blood-colored inner demon sneered, "Although the mother of Bailian is not Zhutou San, the cunning guys in the cultivation world are not Zhutou San. How could you not have imagined such a simple strategy as 'Transferring the tiger away from the mountain'? Before they chased the dispersed ghost soldiers, they must have conducted the most careful divine scan of the entire Dongning Mansion to ensure that the city is full of people and there will definitely be no ghost!"
