Some of the big forces in the southern royal city were also shocked.
Ye Liuyun's death army advanced too fast.
If we continue at this rate in less than three months, we will reach the royal city.
Now King Nanfu is fighting on two fronts.
And he was obviously not fully prepared for the Death Army's attack.
He never expected that the 300,000 troops at the border would be wiped out by Ye Liuyun in one day.
The defenders of the cities along the way did not hold out for two hours before they were directly broken into by the Death Army.
Pei Yong, the commander of the surrendering army, is the busiest at this time.
There were really too many surrendered troops. On the first day, more than 200,000 surrendered troops were received, and then every city had surrendered troops.
In order to keep up with the army, he didn't have time to be too meticulous and directly asked these surrendering soldiers to sign a surrender contract.
Those who don't sign will be killed directly.
Then these surrendered soldiers moved forward together with the army, and he organized the soldiers into groups as he walked, asking them to form new groups and garrison the city.
King Nanfu had no choice. Except for the cities on the attack line of the Death Legion, all the defenders of other cities must gather towards the royal city.
After these soldiers defending the city are gathered together, they also need time to reorganize.
Moreover, the combat effectiveness of these soldiers is not strong. At most, they can only block the attack of the Death Legion and build up their momentum.
He also transferred 200,000 troops from the eastern border.
But it would take more than a month to get to the royal city at the earliest.
Even if King Nanfu wants to negotiate with the Death Legion, he must block their offensive, otherwise why would the Death Legion negotiate with him.
Therefore, the Death Legion could not encounter any major legion battles for almost a month.
This month is also an opportunity for them to move forward quickly.
The sharp knife army led by Ye Tiandao is also the busiest.
Not only did they have to clear the way for the middle road, but they also often rushed to the two flanking armies to help. The time during the journey was the time for them to practice and recover, and the fighting never stopped.
Wu Qingcheng and others have become stronger and stronger through constant fighting.
A few days later, information about the southern region was flying all over the sky, and ordinary people also knew about the plight of the southern region.
The big forces in the royal city have begun to mobilize resources to transfer resources outwards.
The 100,000 forbidden troops in the royal city were also nervously preparing for war at this moment.
Patrols and inspections in the city have also been strengthened to prevent anyone from taking advantage of the chaos to cause trouble.
At this time, Lin Xiyao suddenly came to Ye Liuyun.
"Master said that she would first come to the Royal City to stock up on some medicinal materials at the Alchemist Alliance, and then she would take me and some elite disciples of the Lin family to the central area to escape the chaos of the war first, and then come back after things have stabilized."
Lin Xiyao worriedly said to Ye Liuyun: "She doesn't mention Mu Liangqing now.
But I'm worried that after arriving in the central area, she might want me to marry someone else!"
Ye Liuyun also immediately asked Mu Lianqing through Nuyin.
Sure enough, Mu Lianqing did not receive any notice from Lin Luoyi.
It seems that Lin Luoyi is not very optimistic about King Nanfu's situation and will not mention the marriage.
"You stay with me for now. I'll find a way to deal with her. Maybe you need to cooperate with me!"
Ye Liuyun felt that this was a good time to deal with Lin Luoyi and prepared to set a trap.
He left Lin Xiyao by his side, and through his slave seal, he instructed Mu Lianqing to bring some strong martial artists to wait for Lin Luoyi at the city gate. He must invite Lin Luoyi to a high-end restaurant for dinner.
Then he will also come to the scene, deal with Lin Luoyi with them, and plant a slave mark on Lin Luoyi.
Mu Lianqing immediately understood that Lin Luoyi had deliberately not informed him and did not want to mention the marriage again.
He also hated Lin Luoyi very much in his heart: "If I hadn't wanted to become my disciple, I would have fallen to this point! Now you want to kick me away and treat me like a fool?"
So when he heard that Ye Liuyun was going to plant a slave mark on her, he immediately became energetic.
He immediately brought more than a dozen fifth-level martial arts cultivators and more than fifty crossbowmen, fully armed, to the city gate to wait for Lin Luoyi.
If Lin Luoyi didn't go, they would work together, plus the defenders, to kidnap her and send her to Ye Liuyun, so that she would end up like him and become Ye Liuyun's slave.
Lin Luoyi rushed to the royal city with only two personal maids, not expecting to meet Mu Lianqing at all.
Mu Lianqing also pretended to be surprised and quickly went to greet her respectfully.
"Why are you here?"
Lin Luoyi still looked aloof, not aware of the approaching danger.
Mu Lianqing replied: "The Royal City has recently strengthened its defenses, and I happened to be here for an inspection.
Why did you come to the royal city without notifying me?"
"Do I still need to inform you when I come to the royal city?"
Lin Luoyi said disdainfully.
"Please inform me so that I can catch the wind for you!"
Although Mu Lianqing secretly scolded Lin Luoyi, on the surface, he looked humble.
"Okay, you go about your business! I'll go into the city to do some errands, and then I'll take Xiyao back to the Lin family!"
Lin Luoyi ordered.
"Xiyao is not in the Alchemist Alliance right now, but is refining alchemy in my palace! Why don't you go to the VIP building and wait for a while? I haven't seen you for a long time, so I just want to show my friendship as a landlord."
Mu Lianqing made up nonsense.
Lin Luoyi frowned and asked: "Why is Xiyao in your palace?
It wasn't you who kidnapped her by force, was it?"
Mu Lianqing waved his hands repeatedly and said with an aggrieved look: "Our palace wants to prepare some elixirs for the imperial army, and we ask Xiyao to help refine the elixirs."
"Why didn't she tell me?"
Lin Luoyi immediately expressed doubts and immediately took out the transmission talisman and asked Lin Xiyao.
Ye Liuyun was teaching Lin Xiyao how to answer: "Just say that you have agreed to the palace, and you have to refine a few more batches of elixirs, so you can't leave for the time being."
Lin Xiyao responded according to Ye Liuyun's instructions, and Lin Luoyi believed it.
"Okay then, I'll go to the Alchemist Alliance to purchase some medicinal materials first, and then go to the VIP Building to wait for her!"
With that said, she went straight into the city.
She didn't pay attention to the guards at the city gate, thinking that the guards at the city gate were really strengthened.
Mu Lianqing immediately sent someone to arrange a private room in the VIP Building.
Then he led people to guard outside the Alchemist Alliance, waiting for Lin Luoyi to come out.
After Lin Luoyi joined the Alchemist Alliance, he also bought medicine and came out.
With her arrogant character, no one looked down on her, and naturally no one took the initiative to chat with her.
The most I can do is say hello.
So she didn't know at all that Lin Xiyao was at Ye Liuyun's residence.
Before Mu Lianqing replied to her, Ye Liuyun had already been killed by him.
When she came out of the Alchemist Alliance and saw Mu Lianqing with so many people, she was also stunned by the scene.
"Why are you making such a big fuss about having a meal?"
She asked Mu Lianqing dissatisfiedly.
"Oh, I have no choice! I recently received news that someone is coming to assassinate me and my father, so I have to add more people around to scare those assassins."
Mu Lianqing made up lies, his face was not red and his heart was not beating, and he said it very naturally.
