Three months later, in the Papal Palace of Spirit City, Bai Yu looked at the letter in his hand and a smile appeared on his lips.
"Tsk, what a crushing defeat. After two months of fighting, they've lost twenty-one cities. The Clear Sky Sect is quite formidable, having just emerged from the mountains."
"However, now that the little angel's letter has arrived, I should go to Tiandou. It just so happens that Rongrong and the others are tired of staying in Spirit City. I'll take them out to have some fun and experience battlefield life."
When Tang San brought back the news that the Clear Sky Sect had come out of seclusion to help Star Luo attack Tiandou, the Star Luo Emperor immediately organized a ceremony to welcome the Clear Sky Sect.
After the ceremony, without saying a word, they immediately dispatched troops. The army marched for about a month and arrived at the border between the two countries, where they officially engaged in battle with Tiandou.
Of course, Star Luo's military action could not be kept secret from Tiandou, and Tiandou Empire also reinforced its borders in an attempt to stop Star Luo.
At first, the noble lords of Tiandou didn't take this battle seriously at all, thinking that Star Luo would just take some spoils and go back like before.
Unexpectedly, from the start of the battle, Star Luo made unstoppable progress, capturing cities and territories. Two months later, Tiandou has lost twenty-one cities.
Now, the noble lords of Tiandou were not happy. They thought the Star Luo people had no martial ethics and were trying to deceive and ambush them!
Therefore, they all wrote to Qian Renxue, asking her to invite the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan to help them in the battle.
At the same time, they generously donated money and people, hoping that Tian Dou could win this battle, at the very least, by driving Star Luo back.
After all, if Tian Dou's territory shrinks, their sources of income will also decrease, so why would the nobles be happy about that?
Although the nobles unanimously petitioned Qian Renxue, hoping she would find reinforcements to launch a counterattack against Star Luo, they never expected that their new emperor would give them such a big surprise.
During the court assembly, she directly asked them, "If I could get Spirit Hall to intervene, what do you think, my dear ministers?"
Upon hearing this question, everyone in the court fell silent. They did want to find help, but this helper seemed a bit too powerful.
If they really invite them, will Tian Dou be able to send them back?
However, although many ministers of the Tian Dou Sect were worried, this was not a reason for them not to invite them. After all, if Spirit Hall intervened, they could take a big bite out of the Star Luo Empire.
So after much wrangling, everyone reached a consensus: first, they would invite the people from Spirit Hall to Tiandou City for a meeting, and then discuss how to help them later.
In the Papal Palace, Bai Yu muttered to himself while holding the letter, then got up and went back to the Holy Son's Palace.
"Bing'er, Zhuqing, why are only the two of you here? Where are the others?"
In the training ground behind the Holy Son Hall, Zhu Zhuqing and Shui Bing'er were sparring, and the two were having a lively match.
Hearing Bai Yu's question, they stopped and said with a somewhat helpless expression:
"They went to the back mountain. I don't know which swindler Xiao Wu bought a treasure map from, and they're all going to look for treasure."
"Besides Sister Erlong going to find Spirit Kite Douluo and thus escaping disaster, even Sister Ah Yin was dragged along, supposedly because Sister Ah Yin's domain could lend them a hand."
Bai Yu's lips twitched. He thought to himself, "These guys are really bored out of their minds. What treasures could there be in the back mountains of Spirit City, apart from some free-range soul beasts?"
If there really was treasure, would they even have a chance to dig it up? Spirit Hall would have unearthed it long ago.
"Forget it, let them have fun if they want to. Staying in Spirit City for the past two years has really been quite boring."
"However, things won't be boring after tomorrow. You'll get to experience what excitement is."
"Bai Yu, what's so exciting? Are you going to take us out?"
After Bai Yu finished speaking, before Zhu Zhuqing and Shui Bing'er could ask any questions, a voice came from behind them. It was Ning Rongrong and the others who had returned.
Bai Yu turned around, looked at the group who hadn't found any treasure but were covered in dust, and laughed out loud.
"Hehe, didn't you guys go treasure hunting? How was it? Did you find anything?"
Xiao Wu looked indignant and raised her hand to wave her fist.
"What treasure? We dug for ages and all we found were ants and bugs. If that guy was selling a treasure map, even if it was fake, he should at least have buried something!"
"It's fun when treasure hunters dig up something, isn't it? But I didn't expect to find nothing at all. I hope I never see him again, or I'll smash his head in!"
"Forget about that, let's talk about your business. What was that 'exciting' thing you mentioned earlier?"
Bai Yu shook his head. People shouldn't be too idle, otherwise they'll want to try everything. Even if they know the so-called treasure map is fake, they still have to try it.
"Star Luo is attacking Tiandou, so the current Tiandou emperor, Xue Qinghe, wrote to me asking for help."
"I have a fairly good relationship with him, so I agreed to this. Spirit Hall will send people to help them soon. You can think about it yourselves and see who wants to go to the battlefield for a spin."
Upon hearing Bai Yu's words, the women opened their mouths in surprise.
However, they already knew something about this beforehand, so they didn't ask too many questions, but instead discussed whether or not to go.
Fortunately, Bai Yu wasn't in a hurry. He went out and asked the guards to prepare some food, and the group ate and talked at the same time.
After Liu Erlong returned from Spirit Kite's place, everyone had finished their discussion. In the end, everyone except Ah Yin wanted to go and see for themselves.
After all, they had never witnessed a large-scale war between the two countries.
"Ah Yin, they're all going, aren't you going? I probably won't be back much before the war between the two countries ends, and then you'll be all alone here."
While everyone else went to prepare, Bai Yu turned to look at Ah Yin, who was tidying up the table, and asked her a question.
Ah Yin shook her head and said softly:
"I won't go. I'll stay inside Spirit Hall. But war between two countries is no child's play. Bai Yu, you must protect them."
At this point, Ah Yin paused, looking at Bai Yu with a strange expression.
"Besides, it's not like I'm the only one left, is it? Bibi Dong will stay in Spirit City too, won't she?"
Bai Yu's lips twitched. How could this be the same? His affair with Bibi Dong hadn't been exposed yet. Apart from the two people involved, only Hu Liena and Ah Yin knew about it.
"Fine, if you don't want to go, then you don't have to. Anyway, with your personality, you probably don't like those bloody scenes."
Seeing that Bai Yu was a little embarrassed, Ah Yin couldn't help but smile. Then, as if she had thought of something, her smile faded and she frowned.
"Bai Yu, you just said you're going to participate in this war, right? But if you go, what will happen to Spirit Hall?"
"I heard that Bibi Dong hasn't come out of seclusion yet. If you leave, won't there be no one to handle Spirit Hall's affairs?"
