Chapter 1433: Uninvited Guest
“I’m really doomed because of Mo Tian.”
Liu Ming shook his head. Thinking that he had to go against the Huangfu Family in the future, he had a headache.
Huangfu Yupo and Liu Ming landed on a high platform in the fortress. At this moment, there were 8 Celestial State demons standing on the high platform. They were basically at the Celestial State later stage. Judging from their clothes, they should be senior members of the Blood Lion Legion.
“Elder Yupo!” These people bowed to Huangfu Yupo.
“There is no need to be polite.” Huangfu Yupo replied in a cold voice.
The 8 legion commanders present immediately turned their attention to Liu Ming behind Huangfu Yupo, looking hesitant to speak.
Liu Ming stood there expressionless as if he didn’t notice their gaze.
“This is Mr. Liu Ming, the Family Master of the Quan State Qing Family. He was ordered by the Sir Demon Emperor to go out with the army. He is not an outsider.” Huangfu Yupo explained seemingly casually.
After hearing this, these legion commanders looked at each other a few times with some suspicions still on their faces, but since Huangfu Yupo had spoken, they could not say anything more.
“How is the deployment of the legion now?” Huangfu Yupo asked.
“Reporting to Elder Yupo, the troop deployment has been completed and strategic materials have been basically prepared. Now we are just waiting for the command of His Majesty to set off to the battlefield.” An extremely tall middle-aged man in a purple robe said.
Liu Ming glanced at the 8 legion commanders. This middle-aged man in a purple robe had the highest cultivation level and the most gorgeous clothes. He seemed to be the leader of the Blood Lion Legion, second only to Huangfu Yupo.
“Okay, you all check if everything is ready again. When His Majesty’s command arrives, we will rush to the battlefield immediately.” Huangfu Yupo solemnly said in a deep voice.
The commanders present acknowledged and scattered. In the blink of an eye, only Liu Ming and Huangfu Yupo were left on the high platform.
“Family Master Liu, what do you think of the Blood Lion Legion’s military strength?” Huangfu Yupo looked at Liu Ming and said with a faint smile.
“The Huangfu Family is indeed worthy of the behemoth of all demons. The strength of a single legion far exceeds that of my Qing Family. This is simply impossible to match with.” Liu Ming said with a sigh of exclamation.
“Family Master Liu has overpraised. I’m afraid it will be some time before Sir Demon Emperor’s transfer order comes. During this time, I will take you around to familiarize yourself with the entire legion.” Huangfu Yupo seemed to be very satisfied with Liu Ming’s answer.
“Thank you, Elder Huangfu.” Liu Ming cupped his fist and said politely.
Huangfu Yupo immediately took Liu Ming to the center of the fortress. The center of the fortress was bounded by several main roads, dividing the entire Blood Lion Legion into 8 parts. There were more than 10,000 people stationed in each part.
“The Blood Lion Legion has a large number of soldiers, and it is quite troublesome to deploy, so it is divided into 8 divisions. Each division has a legion commander. Family Master Liu has just met those legion commanders.” Huangfu Yupo pointed to the 8 brigades below while explaining to Liu Ming.
Liu Ming nodded slowly. Almost everyone in the demon race was a cultivator, which was very different from the situation in the Middle Sky Continent. They paid great attention to the change of military formations on the battlefield.
A considerable part of the classics he brought out from Demon Abyss Tower also recorded the change of various military formations. He had read some in his spare time, so he also had some knowledge about military formations. The building pattern of the Blood Lion Legion was more suitable for a large-scale deployment.
This could avoid the disruption in army mobilization, but if the control of each brigade was insufficient, it would also cause various problems.
“The following 8 teams seem to have different focuses.” Liu Ming said.
“Family Master Liu knows something about the legion too? I heard Ying’er say that you are an alchemy master too. I’m really impressed by Family Master Liu’s well-informed knowledge.” Huangfu Yupo was slightly startled.
“I just read some books related to military formations, so I know a little bit about it.” Liu Ming laughed and said.
“Family Master Liu, you don’t have to be modest. You are right. These 8 brigades are based on the ancient Eight Levels Golden Lock Formation. Each team has its own emphasis. If Family Master Liu has any advice, you can enlighten me.” Huangfu Yupo seemed to be quite conceited about this Eight Levels Golden Lock Formation.
When Liu Ming heard this, he naturally said he didn’t dare.
The two quickly arrived at the back of the fortress, where dozens of giant purple ships were docked. Each ship was 300 meters long. The ships were covered with demonic pattern talismans.
“Are these giant ships used to transport legions?” Liu Ming asked.
The grade of these giant ships seemed to be at the magic weapon level, but 10 of them looked even more peculiar. There were even some black cannon muzzles on the sides. They were similar to the giant warships of the Nature Work Sect.
“These ordinary flying ships are used to transport soldiers, but those 10 are our Huangfu Family’s Sun Moon Battleships. They can be used to transport soldiers, but they can also be used in battles. Among the 6 legions of the central imperial, only the Blood Lion Legion dispatched these ten battleships.” Huangfu Yupo said proudly with a faint smile.
“Oh.” Liu Ming nodded and said.
“If Family Master Liu is interested, you can also board the ship and have a look.” Huangfu Yupo said.
“I’m glad to be invited.” Liu Ming laughed, and they landed next to a warship and were about to board the ship.
At this moment, 2 purple escape lights came from the distance.
“Elder Yupo, the Sun Moon Battleship is the secret of our Huangfu Family. Even some low-rank people in the family are not allowed to approach it at will. Don’t you think it’s a little inappropriate for you to bring an outsider on board?” A purple-robed young man, Huangfu Jiangu, appeared from the escape light and said in a gloomy tone.
Another escape light flashed and turned into the figure of a purple-robed old man, Huangfu Zhantian.
“Elder Zhantian, Your Highness Jiangu, why are you two here at my Blood Lion Legion?” Huangfu Yupo frowned and said with a cold face.
Liu Ming looked at Huangfu Jiangu and frowned slightly. He had only met this person once during the crown prince election. Judging from his tone, he seemed quite hostile to him.
But he soon realized that Huangfu Jiangu was probably feeling threatened by the crown prince selection.
“Elder Yupo, as a secret treasure of the Central Imperial, the Sun Moon Battleship is indeed inappropriate for outsiders to board the ship.” Huangfu Zhantian smiled faintly, glanced at Liu Ming, and said.
Huangfu Yupo’s eyes moved, then she snorted and said,
“Elder Zhantian, don’t you know that Family Master Liu is Ying’er’s fiancé and will soon marry into our Huangfu Family? How can he be considered an outsider?
“That will have to wait until Mr. Liu actually joins our Huangfu Family. As long as my father does not allow him to be officially included in the family tree, he will still be an outsider.” Huangfu Jiangu said coldly.
Huangfu Yupo’s face turned grim, and a faint cold aura emitted from her body.
In order to win over Liu Ming as soon as possible, it was indeed inappropriate to bring him here. After all, Liu Ming and Zhao Qianying had not yet truly become dual cultivation partners. However, Huangfu Jiangu and Huangfu Zhantian had an ulterior purpose for coming.
“Elder Huangfu, since this warship is a secret treasure of the Huangfu Family, I will not visit it. When I get to the battlefield in the future, I will naturally see the power of this warship.” Liu Ming coughed lightly and said so.
Huangfu Yupo’s expression softened slightly, and she glanced at Liu Ming apologetically, then she looked at Huangfu Zhantian again.
“Elder Zhantian, is there any important matter for you two to come to my Blood Lion Legion? If there is nothing else, please don’t interfere with my military affairs.” She said coldly.
“Hehe, Elder Yupo, don’t be angry. I came here this time on the orders of the Lord Demon Emperor to transfer His Highness Jiangu to the Blood Lion Legion to assist Elder Yupo.” Huangfu Zhantian said with a slight smile.
“His Royal Highness Jiangu has always been in your Greedy Wolf Legion, why is he suddenly transferred to my Blood Lion Legion?” Huangfu Yupo was startled, and she asked in doubt.
“This matter was ordered by His Majesty Demon Emperor. I don’t know the reason too.” Huangfu Zhantian said with a bitter smile.
“Since it is the order of His Majesty Demon Emperor, I will obey it. Your Highness Jiangu will serve as a military officer in the legion.” Huangfu Yupo said immediately.
“Thank you, Elder Yupo.” Huangfu Jiangu bowed to Huangfu Yupo, then he glanced at Liu Ming coldly.
Liu Ming felt Huangfu Jiangu’s hostility and murderous intent. He just sneered in his mind without showing any emotion on his face.
Although this person’s cultivation level was slightly higher than him, Liu Ming could even face the powerful Mystic Comprehending State, so why would he care about a demon at the Celestial State peak stage.
If Huangfu Jiangu messed with him, he didn’t mind getting rid of this person.
“Haha, I have done what I’m told. Please take care of His Highness Jiangu, Elder Yupo.” Huangfu Zhantian smiled faintly, cupped his fist to Huangfu Yupo, and flew away.
“Your Highness Jiangu, the Blood Lion Legion has its own rules. Since His Majesty Demon Emperor transferred you here, you must also abide by the military rules.” Huangfu Yupo glanced at Huangfu Zhantian who was walking away, then she said to Huangfu Jiangu.
“Yes.” Huangfu Jiangu smiled slightly and nodded casually.
“Take His Highness Jiangu to rest.” Huangfu Yupo frowned slightly, clapped her hands, and said.
A purple-robed soldier came over and led Huangfu Jiangu away.
“Family Master Liu, you should go and take a rest. Once Sir Demon Emperor’s order arrives, the Blood Lion Legion will set off.” Because of the uninvited guest, Huangfu Jiangu, Huangfu Yupo was a little displeased. She said a few words to Liu Ming, clapped her hands, and another soldier came over.
Liu Ming bowed to Huangfu Yupo and followed the purple-robed soldier away.
