The Ghost of Fog
Chapters 97. Things Beyond the Conjecture
Two days have passed since that incident. Zhang Qiaofeng finally abandoned his intention to go to the Hu family, fearing that the mountain man army would attack once he was not there.
The emperor had already received a report from the Zhang family since a month ago, more precisely when Zhang Qiaofeng had not yet made the trip to the Xiao family back then.
Emperor Chu Quon himself prepared his entire army and attempted to contact the other six Ruling Families. And all of them agreed to help.
For the Xiao family themselves, during these two days they were welcome to rest at the Zhang residence. Because their army is needed to face the invasion of mountain men later.
During this month, according to the information obtained from the Heavenly Crow Asosization Spies, the mountain man's army has been progressively slower, even these two weeks the army has stopped.
Lu Tuoli also added the Association army that previously numbered two hundred, currently to five hundred. Already half of the entire Heavenly Crow Asosization members were stationed in the Zhang family.
"When will the attack be carried out?" lu Tuoli asked in the meeting room.
"Yesterday, the emperor said that the attack would be carried out the day after tomorrow in the morning. The Xiao and Zhang families are leaving with the emperor's army." Zhang Qiaofeng replied.
"That's it.." murmured Lu Tuoli.
"Prepare yourself, tonight break early!!" zhang Qiaofeng's orders.
"Yes Miss!"
...****************...
The day after morning, as planned, today the entire Sovereign Family will be pounding the mountain-man army that has recently been troubling the citizens.
The Xiao and Zhang families had already united with the emperor's army led by a commander named Gui Leng. An old commander but his attitude and posture still looks dashing.
"We're leaving now!!! We're holding the mountain man army together with six other Sovereign Families!!" his orders led the army of a thousand men.
After that, they headed west. Three large banners fluttered with their magnitudes in the middle of the army ranks. At the forefront is led by the rarely-comparable saints.
On the Chu family's side, the front row was led by Gui Leng and Chu Wei, behind whom walked many strong officers. The Xiao family was led by Xiao Li and his commander, Hao Yu was also there.
The most powerful was the new family troop group that was the Zhang family. No officers, no commanders. But in the front there sat a heroine on her white horse, Zhang Qiaofeng.
To his right sat a loyal bodyguard on a white horse. It was Lin Tian, the Fog Ghost Swordsman. On his left, there was Zhang Hongli the Grandfather of the Milky Way Arm.
Then behind him, lined up neatly the Lu brothers with his daughter Lu Jia Li, whose right eye was covered with a black cloth. Behind the ranks of these great warriors, walked gallantly the hundreds of troops of the Heavenly Crow Association who were already famous for their shrewdness.
As for Ang Bei and Minghao, as well as Xiao Lian, Xiao Niu and Xiao Mei, they were deliberately left in Zhang's residence with a hundred Association troops to guard the residence.
This army of over a thousand people continued to head West, more precisely towards the Red Cloud mountains. Because according to the information, the mountain man army gathered behind the mountain.
There also the seventh army of his planned family will gather and make a plan of invasion.
Day after day passed, and it had been four days for this troop to travel. On the morning of the fifth day, the army finally arrived at the Red Cloud Mountains, which became a gathering point.
"Welcome, sir. Thank goodness you all arrived safely." greet an albino young man who was none other than Hu Tao to the commander-in-chief of the Chu family.
The commander returned the respect and immediately said. "Has only the Hu family arrived?"
"That's how it is, sir."
Concurrently Chu's forces, Xiao and Zhang immediately set up camp next to Hu's army camp. They spend the night there for days by eating rations and drinking river water not far from it.
But something is strange. After four days at the foot of the Red Cloud mountain range, and after all the Sovereigns' families had gathered, there was one family who had yet to attend.
"Curtainly, where did the Liu family army go!?" the Chu family leader, Chu Shen said. As the leader of the entire army of seven Ruler Families.
Commander Gui Leng frowned. He himself was also confused because during these few days the Liu family had not seen the trunk of his nose at all.
"Aren't we better off just storming over, sir. I'm afraid that the mountain man army has started to move and take another direction to avoid our troops" Tan Hui said with an anxious face.
Chu Shen seemed to think for a moment then nodded his head. After that he stood up and said. "Well, tomorrow afternoon we climb the summit so we can get there at night and make a raid. Do you agree!"
"Agreed!!" answer them to each other.
"Then, rest tonight and prepare for tomorrow."
Flocking them out of the biggest tent to the tent of their families. After arriving far away from there, Zhang Qiaofeng who had previously participated in the negotiations with Lin Tian immediately asked his bodyguards.
"Lin Tian, don't you feel weird about this? For these few days the Liu family has been completely invisible, I have a feeling that something has happened with them in the middle of the road."
Lin Tian simply remained silent, as he continued his path beside Zhang Qiaofeng.
"Lin Tian?" the girl asked, turning her head to look at Lin Tian.
"Yes, there is something strange about this." replied Lin Tian who had already had that bad feeling.
Although Zhang Qiaofeng was confused about the attitude of his bodyguard who did not immediately answer that, but he did not care and chose to return to his tent.
"Good night Lin Tian" the girl said with a sweet smile and waved her hand before entering the tent.
Lin Tian immediately joked and said, "Good night Miss, may you have a good dream."
As soon as Nonanya was already invisible, the young man did not move at all. Just standing in his place.
The night was late, the surrounding conditions were very sunyinya, except for the sound of crickets and gentle breeze that swayed the leaves of the tree to cause a slumping sound.
The white robe as well as Lin Tian's black scarf fluttered in the wind. There were only a few guards who were still awake to watch around, the rest were already sleeping all because indeed at a time like this, drowsiness was fiercely attacking.
"I have to investigate, this is awkward...it's so awkward!!" lin Tian's mind grew increasingly unsettled.
After looking around for a moment, this young man immediately darted away from there. It was so fast that only a white shadow flashed in sight.
Lin Tian was about to climb the peak, to then look back at the mountain range and ascertain if the thousands of mountain man troops were really there.
Because the swordsman nicknamed Ghost moves so fast, so that only an hour has he arrived at the top and how surprised he was to look down, go back to the top of the place where the whole army makes camp.
"Cattern.it's a disaster!!!"
