"We... don't know..."

Xu Ying lowered his head and said sadly: "We are just the lowest-level organization in the demon army. Although we know that Princess Xi is in Tongtian Gorge, no one knows where Princess Xi is detained."

"Have anyone ever seen Xiao Xi?" Lin Muyu asked in his heart.

"No……"

Min Zhan shook his head and said, "Maybe, she, like those gods, are all imprisoned in the Demon Lock Valley."

"Lock the Demon Valley?"

"Yes." Min Zhan said respectfully: "The Demon Locking Valley is located in the northeast direction here, very deep. It is a place where the demons detain important prisoners. It is said that some very important people caught by the Demon Emperor and the Holy Master were locked up in the Demon Locking Valley."

"Can you take me to the Demon Lock Valley?"

Lin Muyu's tone did not look like a solicitation, but more like an order. He originally thought that Xu Ying, Min Zhan and others had already died in battle, but he did not expect that they would actually see them here, nor did he expect that they had become the minions of the demon clan. No matter what, Lin Muyu still felt a sense of disgust for no reason. Instead of seeing them now, he would rather they died in the bloody battle with the armored demon in Dongshuang City.

Xu Ying saw the disgust and unquestionable expression in Lin Muyu's eyes, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, saying, "That's right, we are just a group of abandoned people who are afraid of life and death. Your Highness Yu, you are no longer just a deacon in the Temple, but the master of the empire, the King of Qin who ruled the world by the Three Kings, and we will still obey your orders."

Lin Muyu looked at Xu Ying and saw that he was older than a few years ago, but the unruly charm in his eyes had long disappeared. Now all he had was vicissitudes and helplessness. Looking at Xu Ying's appearance, Lin Muyu felt a little heartbroken, and his voice eased a little, saying, "Elder General Xu Ying, if you want, I will try my best to take you out of Tongtian Gorge and return to the hometown of mankind. Are you willing?"

"Is it possible?"

Min Zhan looked frustrated and said, "We are just an optional demon slave army. Outside this earthen city, there is a demon patrol team. Moreover, there are countless winged people hovering above our heads, and there are giant flying snakes comparable to the giant beasts of the sky. We can't escape the demons' sight at all."

Xu Ying let out a sigh of relief, and said with a sense of determination, "Your Highness Yu, I have lived for five years. Now... I am old. If Your Highness Yu can use me Xu Ying, I will definitely crush you to pieces to repay His Highness Yin's re-creation of kindness in the past!"

"Xiao Yin has passed away..."

When Lin Muyu said this, his eyes became a little more naive, and he said, "But if the veteran General Xu Ying is really willing to help me, then bring a team of advance troops, let me mix in and send me to the Demon Lock Valley. I know nothing about the terrain of Tongtian Gorge. If no one leads the way, I will not be able to find the Demon Lock Valley at all. Moreover, if I want to save Xiaoxi, I cannot act recklessly. I must figure it out clearly."

"yes!"

Xu Ying clasped his fists and said, "Your Highness Deyu's words, although the veteran will die without regrets. I will mobilize a team of 100 people, all of which are composed of our confidants. Follow Your Highness to lock the Demon Valley. However, Your Highness would better change into the armor of our advance team, otherwise it would be easily recognized by others."

"Okay, I understand!"

Lin Muyu glanced at Min Zhan next to him. He never said a word and had no intention of walking with him.

"Major General, where are you?"

"I..." Min Zhan was stunned for a moment, with a strong sense of fear in his eyes, and said, "There are countless demon troops outside the Demon Lock Valley to guard it, and my father is still their hostage. If I act rashly, I may have killed my father's life."

"Haha, is that true?"

Lin Muyu looked at the son of Weihou who was once so energetic, one of the commanders of the Yangwei Legion. Now Min Zhan has long been smoothed out by the demon clan. Like a wolf that has been raised for too long, he has long lost his wolf nature and turned into a dog. But when he thinks about it carefully, the combat power of the demon clan is too strong. Qian Feng, Demon Emperor and others with the strength of the five-star Demon Sect and above, the combat power of the armored demon alone is not something that mortals can easily withstand. I believe that Min Zhan has suffered a lot under the sword of the armored demon. He is afraid and dare not resist.

However, the veteran Xu Ying regained his original spirit. When Lin Muyu appeared, Xu Ying's mind was full of the grace of the emperor. Instead of living in the world, it would be better to die vigorously.

A soldier handed over a set of armor from the advance army. Lin Muyu took a look. The clothes were made of coarse cloth, and they were very irritated with their bodies. The armor was rusty, and they were just two pieces of iron and were tied with simple rope links. The armor of the Imperial Army was probably far better than this one.

After sighing, Lin Muyu put on the military uniform of the advance army and still carried Xingchen Sword behind her.

Outside the door, the 100 advance soldiers gathered by Xu Ying had already gathered. Most of them were young people, and their tender eyes were filled with light that they were unwilling to surrender. Most of these people's parents were killed by the Armor Demon, and they also became the headmasters of the Armor Demon. Seeing Lin Muyu's arrival was like seeing a ray of dawn.

"The preparation is completed, please give the order to the King of Qin!" Xu Ying said in a low voice.

There were many people in the Tucheng City. Lin Muyu stood in front of everyone, her eyes swept across their green faces one by one, and said in a deep voice: "You have betrayed the empire and abandoned the dignity of humanity. But today, Princess Tang Xiaoxi is imprisoned in the Demon Locking Valley. You must take me to find her. If Princess Xi can be saved, you will be the empire's advance army! You will be the empire's advance army! You will be in all directions and guard the country forever!"

To roam all directions and to protect the country forever is a sentence in the imperial war song "Autumn Eye Ballad". When Lin Muyu said these eight words, a group of soldiers were moved, and the eyes of veteran Xu Ying were filled with tears.

"Let's go, Senior General Xu leads the way."

"yes!"

The group left the Tucheng General's Mansion one after another. Xu Ying rode a war horse and walked in the front, and the rest were all walking. Lin Muyu also mixed in, lowered the brim of the hat, and left the simple human city silently.

...

As night fell, dew wet the grass, and the battle boots trampled on the grass, making a serene sound, and a group of people walked slowly on the mountain road quietly.

Xu Ying walked forward with a long sword, holding a horse, and sweeping his eyes from time to time to ensure safety.

Not long after, footsteps suddenly came from the jungle path. The next moment, a team of about 50 demon patrol team walked out of the jungle beside them and collided head-on.

"Oh..." a young advance soldier gritted his teeth.

Xu Ying hesitated for a moment and whispered: "Don't panic, come face to face, I'll say yes."

Lin Muyu nodded secretly with approval.

At this time, the demon patrol team also came out. A high-level demon was riding a horse and said with a rebellious look in his eyes: "Oh, isn't this the deputy commander of the advance army, the veteran General Xu Ying? Why, what are you doing when you bring people out so late?"

"I heard that Gods were attacked by assassins, so my subordinates brought people out to patrol to protect the safety of Tongtian Gorge." Although this high-level demon clan was only a mere centurion rank, which was 108,000 miles away from Xu Ying, he was a demon clan after all, and Xu Ying was just the deputy commander of the puppet army, so he could only respect him.

"Yeah?"

The high-level demon clan raised his lips and said with a smile: "The advance army has not attacked the God Cinema for several months, but later it was easily defeated by Qin Yan's army. Your combat power is the worst in the God Clan. Just you, a group of waste, still want to protect Tongtian Gorge?"

Xu Ying continued to say respectfully: "We know that we are foolish, but since we have received the grace of the God Emperor, we should be grateful. Even if our advance army has poor combat power, we can strengthen our training, but this is not a reason why we do not serve the gods."

"Hmph, you make some sense, but with our patrol here, you are just redundant, hahaha, Senior General Xu Ying, look at your army, it's like a child playing house. If the army of the Human Empire is all like you, that would be great. Maybe I'm already hugging Niu'er in Lanyan City now and drinking and having fun."

"yes……"

Xu Ying had a blue face, but his expression was still respectful. After giving the people behind him a look, he continued to move forward. The two teams passed by. The armored demons all stared at the advance army with wide eyes and fiercely.

The mountain is steep and there is a deep abyss on the side. It is obviously difficult for two armies to cross over, especially the armored demons are burly and they are unwilling to give way at all. The advance troops can only walk over the edge of the mountain road in a very thrilling way.

"roar!"

Amid the roar, the handle of a advance soldier's sword hit the armored demon. The armored demon's eyes suddenly turned red, and a roar was a fast shield strike!

"Wooah..."

The young soldier had only had time to scream and fell into the abyss. His life disappeared in a blink of an eye, just like grass.

"The beast that kills heaven!"

The soldiers of the advance soldiers looked at each other with glaring.

But the murderous armor demon didn't care about these things at all. He opened his bloody mouth and roared again, as if he was deliberately provoking.

"What's wrong?" the senior demon centurion turned around and asked.

Xu Ying frowned and said, "It's okay, keep moving forward."

Although everyone looked angry, they dared not speak out, while Lin Muyu clenched his fists. He was indeed capable of saving the soldier who fell off the cliff, but as long as he took action, it would mean that he was exposed. Tens of thousands of troops of the demon clan would arrive soon, and once the demon clan was alert, it would be even more difficult to save people in the Demon Valley.

...

The mountain road was extremely rugged. Nearly two hours later, it was already late at night. There were piles of bonfires between the mountains, and the armored demons on the patrol were barbecuing game for dinner.

Xu Ying pointed his hand far away and said, "That valley entrance is the entrance to Tongtian Gorge, but there are thousands of armored demons guarding outside, so we can only send His Highness here. If we go forward, the advance army will definitely be driven away by the demons."

Lin Muyu nodded: "Okay, I'll go in by myself. You will go back to Tucheng to wait for you. If you find Xiao Xi, I will take her to Tucheng and find a way to take you out of Tongtian Gorge."

"Thank you, your highness, how do you plan to get in?"

"Fly in."

Lin Muyu smiled slightly and flew forward suddenly. A purple barrier that was "brushed" appeared. He had already stepped into the power field of four-dimensional space. There was nothing in front of him, only a plaque's plane space trajectory, but just as he was drilling through the wall of space, the space suddenly became strongly distorted!
