Chapter 2378 Don’t You Fight Back?

If Jiang Cheng hadn't claimed to have a 'wonderful plan', this army would have been in complete chaos before they even left the house.

Losing the trump card of the Ancient Sage is like losing the backbone for many people.

Panic and uneasiness will spread quickly, completely destroying their morale.

Now the major sects and ethnic groups are still following him. In addition to being restrained by the Feixian Sect and the three Lords, another important reason is that Gong Qing also went with the army.

"A clever idea?"

"Could it be that the palace military advisor helped Leader Jiang come up with some good strategies to defeat the enemy?"

"Looking at it this way, it's really possible."

"That's right, even the palace military advisors are not opposed to going on an expedition. There must be a point!"

Thinking of Gong Qing's good reputation before, many people gradually calmed down.

Thinking about it, Feixianmen, Ice Palace, and Wu Clan all followed suit.

Jiang Cheng wouldn't intentionally kill one of his own, would he?

Many of them even began to guess what kind of ingenious strategy they could use to compete with the righteous god on the opposite side without bringing along the Ancient Saint.

With these thoughts in mind, the army left Dongzhu Island and quickly headed towards the periphery.

The elders of the Nine Palaces who stayed in the same place had dull expressions on their faces.

It wasn't until the army was about to disappear from sight that Lan Ying cursed angrily.

"What does he mean? What does it mean to never leave seclusion?"

"Who does he think he is?"

"You're so arrogant that you don't even take the Ancient Saint seriously?"

Yue Chan and other elders were equally angry.

"That's right, why should he?"

"He can't come back. Dongzhu Island will be destroyed in his hands, I bet!"

"No, no, no, I don't believe that kid would be stupid enough to actively seek death. Sooner or later, he will crawl back and escape."

"Let's see how tough he can be then!"

Their discussions naturally had no impact on Brother Cheng.

The movement of this expedition was too great, just like the Dragon Clan leaving the Eye of Power, so vast that it was impossible to conceal their whereabouts.

Therefore, when the two nearby righteous gods heard the news, they were all surprised.

"Dongzhudao takes the initiative?"

"And you even brought along those miscellaneous fish like the Venerable and Tianzun to form an army of tens of millions?"

"Are they doing this to be funny?"

"Lanyuan has made his mark, shouldn't he just be a coward?"

"According to the intelligence, Lan Yuan did not go to the battle this time. He is still on the island."

"What? Lan Yuan didn't play? Then where did they get the courage? Did they have other ancient saints joining them?"

Because this matter was so strange, the two temples in the front began to be suspicious, wondering if there was a scam.

So much so that Jiang Cheng's army arrived at the opponent's territory, but did not encounter any enemies.

This made Brother Cheng very disappointed.

"What's going on? As soon as we came out, the enemy pounced on us?"

Yin Xueer, Xu Zichuan, Bingji and others were also puzzled.

"This isn't right."

"In the past, let alone entering the opponent's hinterland, even if it was only tens of thousands of miles away from Dongzhu Island, it would soon be hit."

"Those temples are like mad dogs, they come after smelling them."

"There was no movement at all this time. It's really abnormal..."

Gong Qing thought for a moment and quickly came up with a guess.

“It’s also unusual for them to be proactive.”

"They are currently in a critical period of competing for other territories outside. They will not act rashly without finding out our details."

"At the same time, they are all looking forward to other temples taking the initiative to test."

"That's why this weird situation is happening now."

"So they are also suspicious?"

Only then did everyone suddenly realize, and then asked for advice.

"Then what should we do next?"

"Should we continue going deeper, or should we wait where we are?"

Gong Qing did have a plan.

"Since the enemy is suspicious, we deliberately set up suspicious troops to take advantage of their mentality."

"Let them think that we really have the strength to destroy any temple easily, confuse their sight, and disrupt their deployment."

"Once they cause chaos, we will..."

She was about to talk, but Brother Cheng suddenly took over the right to speak.

"Why bother with such a small situation?"

"Since they won't attack, then we can beat them until they have no choice but to take action, right?"

The former territory of the First Spring included four continents including Lixing Continent and Mingyue Continent.

Currently, these four continents are being divided among the four great temples.

Except for Dongzhu Island, all other places have long since fallen and been transformed into the God Cultivation Area.

Jiang Cheng's plan is very simple, to fight back these god-cultivating areas.

Those temples will definitely not be able to sit still.

How can I spit out the territory I finally ate?

When the time comes, they will naturally take the initiative to cause trouble for themselves.

The first place he targeted was Nanhuo City, which used to be the residence of Nanhuo Sect and was later occupied by the Yangting Zhengshen of Suyun Palace.

It has become an important stronghold of Suyun Palace, second only to their main star.

Since South Fire City is the closest to Dongzhu Island, they have stationed dozens of partial gods and tens of thousands of peak world gods here, which can be said to be heavily defended.

The most important thing is that Yangting Zhengshen is here personally.

But for Jiang Cheng, these are just clouds.

Hearing that this brother led an army of tens of millions all the way to his hometown, Yangting Zhengshen fell into confusion.

You are the intruder, and yet you are beaten to the doorstep by others?

“Where does Dongzhudao’s confidence come from?”

"Without the protection of the power of law, do they really think they can compete with the righteous gods?"

His first reaction was to rush out of the city and let the army on the opposite side see the power of the righteous god.

But when I thought about it again, I felt it was inappropriate.

Dongzhudao's behavior was too abnormal. He really didn't dare to press on all of it without knowing the details.

So the righteous god gave an order.

"withdraw!"

The Southern Fire City that was finally captured was surrendered to others, and the priests under their command were naturally very unwilling to do so.

However, the righteous gods gave orders and they had to obey.

In this way, when Jiang Cheng arrived at Nanhuo City, no enemies came out to fight.

All the priests and envoys of Suyun Palace were evacuated, leaving only the ordinary immortals who had not joined the temple.

The army successfully entered this huge city that could not be seen at a glance, and many people felt that they were a little unprepared.

"This is how we regained Southern Fire City?"

"Isn't this going too well?"

"In the past, let alone conquering this place, we couldn't even get close to this city."

"This is definitely a great achievement!"

"It's really different when Leader Jiang goes on an expedition."

Shocking cheers soon sounded, and the whole city was immersed in a festive atmosphere.

However, Brother Cheng was not happy at all.

"The other side is too tolerant, isn't it?"

"I've occupied their frontline base camp, and you don't want to fight back?"

He always hopes to achieve success in one battle.

One battle determines the outcome, simple and crude.

I don’t want to lead an army around and hide and seek with the enemy.
