Chapter 212 Making a feint to the east and attacking in the west
"interesting."
Xiao Tianyou sneered and moved closer again, obviously wanting to personally deal with this young man who made him feel threatened.
Seeing this, Tushan Yaya stretched out her body and stood in front of Ximen Tianyu. Her eyes were cold, and the cold air in her hands was condensed, pointing directly at Xiao Tianyou: "If you want to touch him, you have to get past me first!"
Xiao Tianyou narrowed his eyes and looked at Tushan Yaya in front of him. He could feel the powerful demonic power in her that was no weaker than his own, but as the eldest elder of the Xiao family, how could he retreat easily?
"What a Tushan fox demon! Let me meet you today!" Before Xiao Tianyou finished speaking, he rushed out like lightning and fought with Tushan Yaya.
The battle between the two instantly became fierce, with sword shadows and ice blades intertwined, and every collision made a deafening sound. Ximen Tianyu stood aside, clearing the Xiao family disciples who wanted to support.
At the same time, his attention was always on the battle between Tushan Yaya and Xiao Tianyou, and he was secretly evaluating the strength and fighting styles of both sides in his heart.
Tushan Yaya's demonic power is not only profound, but also extremely flexible. Every time she swings the cold air, it is like the sharpest blade in winter, cutting the air and also cutting Xiao Tianyou's attack. As the eldest elder of the Xiao family, Xiao Tianyou has profound cultivation and his moves are even more sophisticated and fierce. Every strike of the golden sword in his hand goes straight to Tushan Yaya's vitals, and should not be underestimated.
The more intense the battle, the more Ximen Tianyu could not relax. He knew very well that in such a battle between masters, any negligence could lead to irreversible consequences. Therefore, while dealing with the Xiao family disciples around him, he closely observed the changes in the battle situation and looked for opportunities to help.
However, the battle between Tushan Yaya and Xiao Tianyou was far more intense and complicated than he had imagined. The speed and strength of the two men had reached a staggering level. The cold air and sword energy kept colliding in the air, stirring up circles of ripples, and the surrounding air seemed to be frozen, becoming heavy and oppressive.
But after such a long fight, Ximen Tianyu still managed to figure out Xiao Tianyou's specific strength, which was around the middle to late stage of the great demon king level.
Although Xiao Tianyou's strength is slightly weaker than Tushan Yaya's, the golden sword in his hand is no ordinary item. With this magical sword in hand, it will not be easy for Tushan Yaya to defeat him quickly.
The remaining Xiao family disciples took advantage of the time when Tushan Yaya was delayed to launch a fierce attack on Tushan's defense line.
"Something's wrong!"
Ximen Tianyu relied on the pure Yangyan to repel the new round of attack from the Xiao family. He stood on the city wall again. He first looked at Tushan Yaya and Xiao Tianyou who were still fighting in mid-air, and then looked at the Xiao family disciples who were constantly attacking the city wall in front of him. He seemed to have sensed something wrong.
Even if the Xiao family attacked Tushan at all costs, it would be difficult to break through Tushan's defense line based on the strength they have shown now. Ximen Tianyu frowned and thought to himself. He knew that the Xiao family must have a bigger plan behind this action, and the current offensive might just be a feint to the east and attack in the west.
"Sister Rongrong, the Xiao family may have other moves!"
While fending off the attacks from the surrounding Xiao family disciples, Ximen Tianyu came to Tushan Rongrong and briefly told her his guess.
Tushan Rongrong also felt that it made sense after hearing it, but the attack of the Xiao family disciples at the scene was too fierce, and there was no way to mobilize the guards to other places.
"I go!"
Without any hesitation, Ximen Tianyu flashed away from the battlefield and shot towards the other side of Tushan like an arrow. His heart was filled with a sense of urgency, and his intuition told him that the Xiao family must have set up a more sinister situation there.
Tushan looked at Ximen Tianyu's departing back with a trace of worry in her eyes. But now was not the time to dwell on these things. She took a deep breath, quickly adjusted her strategy, and strengthened the deployment of the current battlefield to ensure that Tushan's defense line would not collapse without Ximen Tianyu's combat power.
Ximen Tianyu, with his extraordinary speed and keen intuition, shuttled through the dense forest of Tushan, looking for the possible hidden tricks of the Xiao family. He left marks along the way so that the follow-up support from Tushan could quickly follow up. However, Ximen Tianyu ran through almost all the possible paths to Tushan, but still did not find anything unusual.
"Could it be that I am overthinking?"
Just as this thought came to Ximen Tianyu's mind, an alarm sounded again in his ears, and the direction from which the alarm came was the opposite direction of the battle between the Xiao family and Tushan.
"A two-pronged attack?"
When Ximen Tianyu heard the alarm coming from not far away, he felt more at ease, because that was also the Tushan border, and there were guards stationed there as well.
In comparison, Ximen Tianyu was more worried that the power of the Xiao family would sneak up along a small path in Tushan, which would be impossible to guard against.
"It seems that the Xiao family is very confident in their own strength, otherwise how could they send people to attack the border of Tushan at the same time?"
Thinking of this, Ximen Tianyu no longer hesitated and rushed towards the direction where the alarm came from.
"Rongrong, it's bad. It seems that the border on the other side of Tushan has also been attacked. We have to transfer some guards over there. Otherwise, with the defense force over there, I'm afraid it will be difficult to resist the Xiao family's attack."
On the main battlefield, Cui Yuling also heard the alarm coming from afar, and immediately found Tushan Rongrong and spoke urgently.
"No need, Ximen Tianyu has already gone to provide support."
Tushan Rongrong answered in a slightly low voice while directing the Tushan guards.
"Is he alone?"
When Cui Yuling heard this answer, she was obviously stunned for a moment before she spoke again.
This time, Tushan Rongrong only had time to nod slightly before she began to dispatch personnel on the battlefield.
In fact, it was not her fault. After all, the situation on the battlefield was changing rapidly, and she had to concentrate on every detail to ensure that Tushan's defense line was stable. Although Ximen Tianyu's departure made her feel a little uneasy, she believed in his strength and judgment, and believed that he could protect their backs.
However, Cui Yuling didn't think so. If Ximen Tianyu relied on himself to deal with the attack from the other side, the risk would be too great. Moreover, since the Xiao family dared to launch a two-pronged attack at the same time, they must have made some preparations, and Ximen Tianyu might be isolated and helpless.
"You're crazy! You actually sent Ximen Tianyu alone to support the other side? Although his cultivation has improved in recent days, two fists cannot beat four hands, let alone a behemoth like the Xiao family. We must reinforce as soon as possible and can't let him fight alone!"
