But since Anxin has sent people to ask for help, Ye Cheng has no choice but to go.
He hurriedly set off from Feihu City with An Ning, and without stopping for a moment, he went straight to Jiangzhou Fucheng.
There was an ominous premonition in his heart, and this premonition became stronger as he got closer and closer to Jiangzhou.
In Ye Cheng's impression, An Xin, as a powerful Green Snake King, was looked down upon by the entire Pseudo Zhou Cultivation World. What's more, she had her own Feilong Guard veterans, Shushan Sword Cultivator assistants, and hundreds of thousands of snake demons under her own command.
The power can be said to be unprecedentedly powerful, but such a power is beaten to the point of calling for help in a hurry?
Just with Xiao Tian's more than 90,000 second-rate troops and the goat king Yang Xian who is not even third-rate now?
Can they do this? Isn't this ridiculous?
Xiao Tian's army, under the leadership of Xiao Tian, does have some strength.
Yang Xian, as one of the ten demon kings of the Great Zhou Dynasty, is quite capable.
But compared with An Xin, they are a bit ridiculous.
To put it bluntly, together they are not even worthy of carrying An Xin's shoes!
The problem must lie somewhere else.
When Ye Cheng came to Jiangzhou Fucheng, it was very peaceful and it didn't look like there was a war.
"The enemy has not even entered Jiangzhou, why is Anxin asking for help?"
An Ning shrugged and said she didn't know, "I don't know why my imperial sister is like this."
"Let's go in and have a look?"
Ye Cheng nodded. In Jiangzhou City, several school captains saw Ye Cheng coming and hurriedly opened the gate for Ye Cheng.
"Where are the Anxin people? Why are they not here?"
Several captains looked at each other, and finally, a captain stepped forward and answered, "Your Highness is in Hefei City, Yangzhou."
"Wancheng, is it lost?"
A captain raised his hand and replied, "Exactly, Your Highness."
Wancheng is the gateway to the defense line of Jiangyang and Yangzhou, and it is also the bridgehead of the entire Jiangnan war zone!
Because that place was of vital importance, Ye Cheng personally strengthened the defenses when he left last time.
Why was it lost like this?
"Please explain in detail, how did Wancheng be lost?"
"Brother, I haven't announced the details of the battle yet. If you have anything, just ask me."
Ye Cheng looked behind him and saw Zhang Ji standing there.

That group of people was very powerful. Dong Hai and Wang Jiang fought with them. In less than a quarter of an hour, the two generals and their three thousand soldiers were all killed.
An Xin had already brought reinforcements that day and was about to enter the city, but before she could enter the city, the Wancheng defense line was broken down by those people.
In the end, His Highness An Xin could only gather some remaining soldiers and retreat to Hefei.
Wang Jiang and Dong Hai, although these two are not from Feilongwei, their strength is not bad either.
They were killed in such a short period of time? It seems that the battle on the front line in Yangzhou is not simple.
"Where are those people from? Zhang Ji, do you know?"
Zhang Ji shook his head, "I don't know, but I heard from the surviving soldiers that those people had purple immortal energy lingering on their bodies. They must be practitioners. And they were wearing white Jiugong Bagua robes."
White Taoist robes, purple immortal energy?
Combined together, it is self-evident where they came from.
Longhu Mountain!
Those Taoist priests from Longhu Mountain have completely degenerated into being dehumanized!
"What happened next? I received a letter from An Xin asking for help and rushed here urgently."
"What happened next?"
"Later... In order to preserve his strength, His Highness An Xin had no choice but to retreat to Hefei and continue to confront the enemy. But in the past few days, General An Xin has been deploying troops from Jiangzhou one after another, and the situation on the front line seems to be very tight."
Hearing this, Ye Cheng fell silent.
Do those tough-nosed experts from Longhu Mountain have this kind of strength? Today's An Xin is as strong as a man, but they can actually force An Xin to keep asking for help?
"Zhang Ji, you continue to defend Jiangzhou, I will go to Hefei to see the situation."
After saying that, Ye Cheng took An Ning and continued to fly with his sword, heading straight to Yangzhou and Hefei.
Half a day later, outside Hefei.
The main tent of the Puppet Zhou Army.
Xiao Tian was serving drinks to the masters of the Shenlong Guard to reward them for their contribution to the victory over Wancheng.
"Everyone, let us toast Master Zhang!"
The newly appointed commander of the Dragon Guard, Zhang Yang raised his hand, took the glass and drank it down.
"General Xiao, we have to be careful. An Xin is now helpless. Pindao reckons that Ye Cheng is coming soon." The sky will definitely come?"
Zhang Yang sneered, "It's very simple, An Xin is his important ally and An Ning's sister. According to his character, it is impossible to sit back and watch An Xin die in battle."
"It is even more impossible to give up Yangzhou, the hub of the march to the north." Hearing this, Xiao Tian swallowed, "In that case, should we withdraw our troops?" Zhang Yang sneered, "Withdraw our troops? Then Yecheng killed my Longhushan disciple, and I and other Longhushan disciples were worried day and night to kill him for revenge.
Today he has come to die on his own, so how can there be any reason to withdraw his troops? I will go to various places outside the city to set up defenses today, waiting for the guy from Yecheng to fall into the trap! "
Xiao Tian sighed. To be honest, he knew that Zhang Yang had some strength, at least the ninth level of the Dao Palace.
But he still felt that Zhang Yang was a newborn calf and not afraid of tigers.
"It's just that I don't know if we can still see Commander Zhang."
Yang Xian shook his head, "It's difficult..."
When Ye Cheng came, he only saw the outside of Hefei City, which was already surrounded.
Surrounded on all sides, like an iron barrel.
Hundreds of hundreds of thousands of monsters and Xiao Tian's more than 90,000 troops were camped densely outside Hefei City.
On normal days, he could easily penetrate the enemy's camp from the front and enter the city with peace of mind.
However, today he did not dare to take risks, because the enemy's situation was somewhat unusual.
Ye Cheng flew around in the sky and finally found that there were no enemy troops in the direction of Xiaoshiqiao in the south of Hefei.
Xiaoshi Bridge was originally used to transport grain to Wancheng.
Now that Wancheng has fallen, this road has lost its use, so Anxin does not need to prioritize attacking here.
Xiao Tian also knew this, so he didn’t arrange much manpower here.
It seems that there are only a few Taoist priests from Longhu Mountain guarding the bridge on the north side.
"An Ning, follow me, we'll go to the city from Xiaoshi Bridge."
"Okay, brother Ye Cheng."
An Ning replied.
At the north end of Little Lion Bridge, three disciples wearing the unique white Nine Palaces and Bagua robes of Longhu Mountain were leaning on the stone railing and dozing out of boredom.
"Senior brother, do you think that Yecheng will really come? We are guarding this place where birds don't poop, when will it be over?"
A younger disciple complained.
The young man with triangular eyes and a sinister face who was called Senior Brother replied, "General Zhang said that Ye Cheng will come."
「那叶城自恃本领通天，自然不把我们放在眼里，我猜他也一定会来。」
「我们守在这里，就是守株待兔就是了！」
Hearing this, another disciple chuckled and said with a greedy face, "Uncle Zhang has said it,
Whoever can take Ye Cheng's head will be able to obtain the third level of the Purple Extreme Demonic Skill passed down by Sect Master Zhou.
