Chapter 411 - 255: Empty Ghost Nation_2
In the case of Mu Qiang, Ghost Creatures can be said to be the most unscrupulous, it is only natural for them to submit to the strong.
In fact, it is not just Ghost Creatures, but all groups are like this, the notion of submitting to power is an instinct embedded in all Spirits.
The types of groups that choose not to submit to power are few and far between, and these species often disappear into the long river of time, leaving no trace, fading away without a trace.
“No, there’s nothing to be disappointed about, I’m just thinking, whether I should use your reputation to reach out to Dong Huang, and ask for a Beast Riding Army once again.”
Feng Qing’an stroked his chin.
He doesn’t mistrust this general. After all, he had confronted seven savages in his previous life. At that time, he only had a small amount of power and only commanded an army that received no reinforcements, solely relying on resources obtained from the enemy.
Now this general can rival a Ghost King in power, and the Ghost Creatures he has chosen, although few in number, are obviously elite, a fact Feng Qing’an trusts.
But Feng Qing’an still felt it was too few. Compared to using fewer people to fight many and exhibiting the art of command, Feng Qing’an prefers to overwhelm with absolute quality and quantity.
Pushing with a million-strong army is the way to go. Regardless of many tricks, or numerous calculations, a military display that drives onwards, cannot stir up any waves.
“No need, my lord, if you insist on a Beast Riding Army, I can recruit and build one after attacking a Ghost Nation, there is no need to bother the country’s lord.”
Upon hearing Feng Qing’an’s words, Xu Wuding immediately responded seriously. Though he was grateful for the country lord’s favor of him, he had no plans to swear loyalty to him, and preferred to minimize contact with him.
“To recruit and build on the spot?”
Feng Qing’an hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement. There was indeed no need to go to Dong Huang for everything. If you want a powerful and disciplined army, you can organise one yourself, because all Ghost Creatures can be soldiers.
“Not bad, let’s go with your plan!”
“May I ask my lord, when will we set off?”
Seeing that Feng Qing’an accepted his suggestion, Xu Wuding promptly asked.
“Hmm…”
Feng Qing’an looked down at the girl in his arms, then at the little phoenix Youyou on the side, and after a moment’s consideration, he decided there was no need to send Nan Ge to the Royal Capital.
It was just an attack on a Ghost Nation. At worst, he could encounter an Upper Ghost King. With his current abilities, couldn’t he handle that? Even if there were many Ghost Kings in that Ghost Nation, it wouldn’t be a big problem. Even if he couldn’t defeat them, he could retreat.
If really necessary, he could draw his sword. Feng Qing’an really didn’t think there were many Ghost Kings in You Huang who could escape the sanction of the Sword of Gods Slaying the Dragon.
“Now.”
“Yes!”
Without saying much, Feng Qing’an just sent a message to Dong Huang through the Soul Contract and informed him that he had brought Nan Ge, and planned to take her along in the conquest of the Ghost Nation.
“Hmm!”
Dong Huang responded indifferently to Feng Qing’an’s actions, seemingly without any particular opinion, even though it was her sister.
“You’re not allowing me to send Nan Ge over?”
After a long silence, Feng Qing’an couldn’t help but break the silence and asked.
“It’s time for her to grow up.”
Dong Huang responded calmly.
“I understand.”
“If you encounter any danger that you can’t handle, don’t insist, call for me at once.”
“I know.”
Feng Qing’an immediately assured the country’s lord.
“Set off!”
The army set out!
Though it’s called a large army, even if you include Feng Qing’an’s group, they are less than a thousand. Compared to those Ghost Kings’ vast and sprawling armies stretching for dozens of miles, this can only be described as extremely meager, in no way a match.
However, such a seemingly insignificant expeditionary force exhibited astonishing fighting ability after heading in the direction provided by Dong Huang, and encountering the first Ghost Nation that hadn’t surrendered to You Huang.
After stepping into the new and unfamiliar land of You Huang, and coming across the first Ghost City, Xu Wuding dispatched ghosts who were good at hiding to sneak into the city to gather information.
The primary aim was to understand the strength of the Ghost King in this Strange Ghost County and whether there were existences similar to Ghost Immortal. If there were, they would either take a detour or go back to find Dong Huang.
The result was obvious. There was only a Black Horn Ghost King here, who was said to be very brutal, liked to devour lesser ghosts, but what he loved the most was Souls from the human world.
So, after sending out numerous Ghost Scouts from all directions to return, and each reported and consolidated the information.
The Ghost King General expressionlessly pulled out a White Bone Sword and swung it towards the ghost city that was squatting like a huge beast on the grim land.
The booming sound echoed through the sky,
As if the Sword of Heaven’s Punishment had fallen from the heavens, the Yin Qi filled, evil energy surging Ghost City, was split in two in an instant. Countless Ghost Creatures were instantly wiped out under the falling Heavenly Punishment Sword without even a chance to cry out in agony.
An intimidating sword mark imprinted on the ground, splitting the Ghost City into two. The remaining Ghost Creatures in the city rushed out in horror, like startled birds, fleeing in all directions, not daring to stay in the original place.
