Qiu Ruohan was not the only one who was shocked. The hundreds of thousands of soldiers behind her were shocked as well.
Even the five hundred Demon Dragon Warriors beside Yang Dingtian were completely stunned.
That's right, they were participants, but they had no idea what was going on.
How could the one hundred suspension bridges all self-destruct and shatter into pieces when they were playing the zither here?
Not only that, even the strings of the three thousand crystal crossbows instantly snapped.
Everyone knew very well how strong and tough the Heavenly Devil Silk was.
It could even be said that a rope made of five hundred strands of Heavenly Devil Silk would be difficult to cut with a sharp sword.
Now, it actually snapped and exploded on its own.
Yang Dingtian seemed to have a pair of hands from the heavens as he personally performed this miracle.
Instantly, the five hundred Demon Dragon Warriors looked at Yang Dingtian with even more admiration and respect.
Qin Huaiyu and Zhu Hongxue had already seen the miracle in Cloud Sky City's main hall, but they still could not help but be shocked.
*****
The ten thousand soldiers who crossed the bridge fell directly into the abyss and were melted by the lava.
However, basically no one noticed this at this time. The hundreds of thousands of soldiers behind Qiu Ruohan all stared blankly at Yang Dingtian.
With regards to Yang Dingtian, their feelings were extremely complicated.
Yang Dingtian rose very quickly. In just a few years, he went from an unknown person to the young leader of the entire Chaotic Continent.
When he became the Lord of Cloud Sky City, he was already on par with Qin Huaiyu and the others.
And in just a few months, he inexplicably became the public enemy of the world.
But at the same time, his status immediately leaped above Zhu Hongxue, Song Chunhua, and the others.
Regardless of whether it was positive or negative, he had almost achieved the same fame as Dongfang Bingling.
Of course, the current rumors in the world were that Yang Dingtian was a spy for the Evil ways and that Yang Dingtian had caused the death of Dongfang Bingling.
However, there were not many real fools in the world.
Almost everyone in the world half-believed and half-doubted this news.
Of course, most people didn't care about Yang Dingtian's feelings.
It's useless for you to talk to ordinary soldiers about good and evil, about the rise and fall of the world.
These soldiers, these sergeants, would only listen to the orders of their superiors.
They were different from the disciples of the various forces. Those martial arts disciples were free and full of ideals.
Therefore, even if there were vague rumors that Yang Dingtian was righteous, they didn't care about Yang Dingtian's Evil ways.
If the higher-ups wanted them to attack Cloud Sky City, then they would attack.
But now, after witnessing such a miraculous scene, he was shocked.
Their hearts were shaken and trembling.
At this moment, Yang Dingtian's image became lofty, mysterious, and invincible.
This filled the hearts of the hundreds of thousands of soldiers with fear and respect for Yang Dingtian. They did not want to become enemies with him at all.
A person who could do such a miraculous thing seemed to have been sent by the heavens to become enemies with him and attack him.
They didn't want to do it and didn't dare to do it.
*****
"Qiu Ruohan, what about the thing you promised?" Qin Huaiyu sneered and broke the dead silence.
That's right. Everyone suddenly woke up from their shock.
Qiu Ruohan, under extreme hatred, had made an extremely vicious bet with Yang Dingtian that was not befitting of her status.
Just like when Yang Dingtian successfully destroyed a hundred suspension bridges, Qiu Ruohan had knelt down to lick Yang Dingtian's shoes.
Now, Yang Dingtian's miraculous performance had mysteriously destroyed a hundred suspension bridges.
Then, Qiu Ruohan should fulfill her promise.
For a moment, everyone's eyes fell on Qiu Ruohan, including the hundreds of thousands of soldiers behind her.
Although they were full of fear for Qiu Ruohan, they still stared at her closely.
If she really kept her end of the bet, then it would be the biggest show that everyone had ever seen.
Not only all the soldiers, but even the White Cloud City Lord, Ye Wucheng, looked at her.
Qiu Ruohan, as the wife of the Northwest Qin City, had great power and was arrogant and domineering.
Even the White Cloud City Lord had to look up to her.
At this moment, if he could see Qiu Ruohan kneeling down to lick his shoes, he would probably never forget it.
For a moment, Qiu Ruohan was the focus of countless gazes.
That kind of humiliation and anger almost exploded from Qiu Ruohan's body. She couldn't wait to rush over and tear Yang Dingtian into pieces. She couldn't wait to fly into the air and kill everyone present, whether they were on her side or the enemy.
There was another deathly silence in the hall.
No one spoke. They were all waiting for Qiu Ruohan's choice.
Would she fulfill the bet, or break her promise?
Of course, no one dared to make a sound. They were afraid that Qiu Ruohan would vent her anger on them!
Suddenly, Qiu Ruohan smiled. Her beautiful and cold face revealed an incomparably beautiful smile.
Just like some poisonous flowers, the more beautiful they were, the more poisonous they were.
"Yang Dingtian, do you really want to come over and kneel down to lick your shoes?
You have to think carefully. Can you bear it? "Qiu Ruohan smiled.
"It's fine if you don't fulfill the bet."
Yang Dingtian smiled faintly. "You have to admit in front of everyone that you represent the power of the Evil ways. You work for Ning Wuming of the Evil ways. In order to survive, you sold yourself to Ning Wuming.
On your side, I represent justice. That's enough! "
Yang Dingtian gave Qiu Ruohan a choice.
She could either kneel down and lick his shoes or admit that the punitive expedition was controlled by the Evil ways.
If she knelt down and licked his shoes, it would be Qiu Ruohan's dignity that would be destroyed.
If she admitted that the punitive expedition was controlled by the Evil ways and admitted that Yang Dingtian was just, it would be a devastating blow to the entire punitive expedition, or at least to the entire Western Allied Forces.
It was one thing to have doubts in her heart.
However, it was another thing to be exposed by the supreme leader of the punitive expedition!
Of course, she could also choose to turn hostile and start a massacre!
The scene was silent again. Everyone was waiting for Qiu Ruohan's choice!
"Hahahaha …" Qiu Ruohan laughed again. This time, her laughter was even more gorgeous and moving. It was even more chilling.
"Isn't the choice simple?" Qiu Ruohan smiled and flew over gently. She came directly in front of Yang Dingtian.
Perhaps it was because of the evil energy, Qiu Ruohan's beauty at this time was even more soul-stirring than the last time he saw her.
This poisonous flower bloomed even more gorgeously.
It was just that this kind of beauty was frightening.
Then, Qiu Ruohan looked at Yang Dingtian with a smile.
"Yang Dingtian, I hope you won't regret it. Of course, you will regret it."
Then, she looked up at Yang Dingtian and knelt down directly. Gradually, she lay down.
Her delicate body looked even more like the undulating mountains and rivers.
In this way, Qiu Ruohan gradually bent down in the most exaggerated posture.
Her absolutely beautiful face had been looking up at Yang Dingtian all along.
She was smiling all the time, but her beautiful eyes were cold and filled with countless vicious lights.
When she reached Yang Dingtian's feet, she stuck out her tongue like a poisonous snake.
Then, slowly, slowly, she licked Yang Dingtian's shoes.
It was not satisfying. It was like licking wonderful honey. The whole process was very slow.
The whole scene was incomparably tempting.
Anyone who was treated like this by a peerless beauty of noble status like Qiu Ruohan would be incomparably confused, even at the cost of their lives.
Everyone thought that watching this process would be incomparably satisfying.
But the fact was the complete opposite.
Almost everyone felt a chill run down their spines.
Whether it was Yang Dingtian who was being served, or all the onlookers.
During the whole process, cold sweat broke out on their backs.
Qiu Ruohan's tongue was licking Yang Dingtian's feet.
But everyone seemed to feel that there was a poisonous snake's tongue licking their faces. That poisonous and cold breath made people feel the arrival of the Grim Reaper.
After seeing Qiu Ruohan licking his shoes, the fear of this woman in the hearts of everyone present became even stronger.
Even Qin Huaiyu's face changed dramatically and became deathly pale.
After slowly standing up, Qiu Ruohan stretched out her cold and smooth jade hand and stroked Yang Dingtian's face. She said lightly, "Okay, satisfied!
If not, I can still do it. "
The muscles on Yang Dingtian's face twitched slightly, but he did not make any sound.
"I know that whatever I say is useless, but I hope you don't vent your madness on the innocent." Yang Dingtian said lightly.
"You think too much." Qiu Ruohan chuckled, and then her delicate body floated gently.
Suddenly, a blue light trajectory was drawn and flew towards the west.
Qin Huaiyu said, "This woman is going completely crazy!"
Yang Dingtian took a deep breath and glanced at the hundreds of thousands of troops on the other side of the river.
These 100 suspension bridges should have exhausted the resources of the Northwest Qin City in a short period of time.
If he wanted to build another 100 suspension bridges, it would take more than a short period of time. Furthermore, the Northwest Qin City was a few thousand miles away from here.
Therefore, in a short period of time, the western army's eastward advance had been completely cut off.
Moreover, these hundreds of thousands of troops had seen Yang Dingtian's miraculous performance and Qiu Ruohan's snake-like scene. Their hearts had turned cold, and their hostility and morale had dropped by a lot.
No matter how crazy Qiu Ruohan would become in the future.
What kind of consequences would there be?
But now, the western army was blocked.
Yang Dingtian's strategy of attacking three and letting go of one was completely completed.
The next few days should be incomparably quiet.
Just like before dawn, there was incomparable darkness.
Before the madness, there was absolute silence.
In the next few days, they would wait for the hundreds of thousands of troops of the southern army to head north and attack the city.
Of course, some people might say that.
With the suspension bridges destroyed, the hundreds of thousands of troops of the western army could not cross, but the experts above the Martial Venerable level could still fly over.
These Martial Venerables and Grandmasters could still attack Cloud Sky City!
But the truth was, why did the Evil ways organize a million troops to attack Cloud Sky City?
Even the Zhongzhou Expeditionary Army had sent hundreds of thousands of troops from thousands of miles away.
This was a complete waste of resources.
In the hands of the Evil ways, destroying Cloud Sky City was easy.
There was no need for 1.5 million troops. 100,000 troops were enough.
Even the 20,000 troops of the Ning Clan of the South Sea were enough to turn Cloud Sky City into ruins and kill everyone in Cloud Sky City.
People who had this kind of thinking had overlooked the most fundamental problem.
That was, the Evil ways had sent out more than a million troops, not to destroy Cloud Sky City at all. This kind of anti-aircraft artillery was used to kill mosquitoes.
The only purpose was to create an image of the world besieging Cloud Sky City and the world fearing Yang Dingtian.
This was because Yang Dingtian's team was currently the only force that could directly confront the Evil ways. It was a flame.
Extinguishing this flame was not important. What was important was to force the people of the world to take sides and send troops to attack Cloud Sky City. This was essentially a declaration of allegiance. A declaration of allegiance to the Evil ways. A declaration of allegiance to justice and a declaration of allegiance to the Tiandō League!
Of course, the western army had another way to advance east.
Didn't they still have 3,000 flying mounts?
They could just directly transport the infantrymen over.
They could transport 3,000 at a time. After half an hour, they could transport 60,000 to 70,000 people a day (because the flying mounts needed to rest).
In the next few days, they could also transport hundreds of thousands of troops over.
Of course, it would be difficult to transport the mounts and large-scale military equipment over.
Now, Yang Dingtian had destroyed the suspension bridges, giving Qin Wanchou a sufficient excuse.
Whether Qin Wanchou wanted to use this excuse to delay the army's advance east was his problem. He believed that he had enough wisdom to handle this matter.
Just like Qiu Wanjie in the Divine Weapons Manor, his son was captured, his army was ambushed, 40,000 to 50,000 people died, and the tunnel was blocked.
Could it be that the army really couldn't advance?
Of course they could. If the tunnel was blocked, they could send tens of thousands of people and hundreds of experts to clear the tunnel in one day. The army could still advance west.
However, Qiu Wanjie had started to bide his time.
The main reason was that Qiu Wanjie and Qin Wanchou didn't want to completely sell themselves to Yang Dingtian. In their hearts, they still wanted to give Yang Dingtian a chance to prove himself.
As long as there was a sufficient excuse, they would be happy not to send their troops.
They were different from Song Xiao from the World Society.
Song Xiao was determined to advance south to destroy Cloud Sky City and Yang Dingtian.
Therefore, he had only given up completely after his power had been dealt a devastating blow.
As for Qin Wanchou and Qiu Wanjie, Yang Dingtian felt that he had a certain level of tacit understanding with them.
Although Qiu Wanjie couldn't be compared to Qin Wanchou, he was still considered a hero of his generation!
Their craftiness made them sit on the fence, making them unwilling to face Evil ways head-on.
However, it was difficult to make them completely sell themselves to Yang Dingtian.
"Third Regiment of the Devil Dragon Army, listen to my orders. Guard the Abyss Castle.
However, if the enemy's Western Legion crosses the border or steps into Cloud Sky City's territory, kill them all, "Yang Dingtian ordered loudly.
"Yes!" A thousand soldiers of the Third Regiment of the Devil Dragon Army shouted in unison.
"Let's go back!" Yang Dingtian said, "It's time to make the final arrangements for the final battle in a few days."
Yang Dingtian turned around, and the five hundred Devil Dragon Army also quickly turned around.
Qin Huaiyu said, "If we leave like this, what if they cross the border again?
What if we take the flying cavalry and set up the crystal crossbow formation again? "
Yang Dingtian said, "I believe that your father has enough wisdom to handle this matter.
I believe that he and I have a faint tacit understanding. "
At this moment, Qiu Ruohan didn't say anything. She sat on a flying mount, abandoned the hundreds of thousands of soldiers, and flew towards the west.
Immediately after, Ye Wucheng frowned, jumped on his flying mount, and flew towards the south.
Ye Wucheng was dead set on following the Evil ways, so he would definitely report the latest situation to Ning Wuming and Qin Qiqi.
Immediately after, all the Master Level and Martial Honorable Level experts of the Western Legion left, leaving behind the hundreds of thousands of soldiers who were temporarily without a leader.
Indeed, there were no fools in this world!
Yang Dingtian destroyed the hundred pontoon bridges and won a political battle.
Next, the entire Western Legion's decisions would depend on Qin Wanchou.
Ye Wucheng went to find Ning Wuming and Qin Qiqi, asking them to put pressure on Qin Wanchou.
Qiu Ruohan directly went to the Northwest Qin City and displayed her power.
These actions had only one goal, and that was to make Qin Wanchou submit.
Yang Dingtian had already done everything he could. Next, it would depend on Qin Wanchou, his wisdom, and his willpower.
It would depend on his performance and his choice.
"Return to the city!"
Following Yang Dingtian's order, Yang Dingtian and the others, as well as the 500 Devil Dragon Legion soldiers, rushed towards Cloud Sky City like lightning.
At this moment, the sky gradually darkened!
At the border of the Abyss, 1,000 Devil Dragon Legion's Third Regiment faced the Abyss and looked towards the other side, eyeing covetously!
*****
As expected, there wouldn't be any battles in the next few days. There would be a few short days of peace.
Then, the final battle would erupt.
The final battle with the Evil ways, an earth-shattering final battle that would directly change the situation of the world.
The chances of winning this final battle largely depended on Qin Wanchou's willpower.
Hopefully, Qin Wanchou wouldn't disappoint him.
He didn't need to do anything. As long as he delayed for one or two days, the situation would basically be settled.
The current situation was very clear.
If the Western Legion didn't advance east, the Eastern Legion wouldn't advance west.
However, once Qin Wanchou gave the order for the Western Legion to enter Cloud Sky City's territory, Qiu Wanjie's Eastern Legion would have no choice but to open up a tunnel to enter Cloud Sky City.
Qin Wanchou, I've already done what I could. I hope you won't disappoint me.
Yang Dingtian sped up and turned his head towards the west to take one last look. He thought in his heart.
*****
Two hours later, Yang Dingtian and the others had already entered Cloud Sky City like lightning.
At this moment, the sky was already completely dark. The outside of Cloud Sky City's city walls were still brightly lit, turning into an incomparably huge construction site.
Countless people were carrying out the final construction and strengthening of the city walls.
Even though there wouldn't be any battles until the final battle.
Yang Dingtian still couldn't rest because he still needed to make the final modifications to Cloud Sky City's army.
According to the summary of the past few days' battle experience, he needed to make the final improvements to the army's weaknesses.
"I'll give you a four-hour break. You still need to rest. Take a bath when you need to. Go talk to people when you need to."
Yang Dingtian said to Qin Huaiyu, Zhu Hongxue, and the others. "After four hours, all members of the committee will come to the main hall to make the final modifications to the army and make the final deployment for the final battle!"
"Yes!"
Qin Huaiyu charged towards Song Lihua like a bolt of lightning.
Zhu Hongxue had nowhere to go. In the end, he flew towards the final part of the city walls. He'd better use the Mystic Fire to blow up the city walls.
Yang Dingtian rode on the Demonic Dragon and sped towards Cloud Sky City.
Ever since returning to Cloud Sky City, Yang Dingtian had been constantly fighting, fighting, and fighting.
Not to mention sleeping or resting, he hadn't even seen Baobao.
Taking advantage of these precious four hours, he went to the valley to see Baobao and to spend some time with his family.
At this moment, Yang Dingtian really missed Baobao.
However, at the entrance of Cloud Sky City, Yang Dingtian was blocked by a person.
A stunning beauty, an extremely charming fox spirit, was riding on the back of a beautiful ray and floating at the entrance of the city!
Her beautiful eyes were like flowing spring water as she looked at Yang Dingtian and said softly, "Little boy, your performance just now moved my heart.
Once a fox spirit is moved, it's very scary … "
