Wu Family Village.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
The "Sacred Dragon Rice Seeds" planted by Wu Han had now grown into a towering tree, exceeding twenty meters in height, lush and verdant, its crown like a cloud.
The villagers of Wu Family Village also noticed the miraculousness of the "Sacred Dragon Rice Tree."
They peered from a distance.
No one dared to approach Wu Han.
The villagers wore expressions of "schadenfreude," whispering and gossiping amongst themselves.
Wu Han couldn't hear what these guys were saying from so far away.
In any case, it couldn't be anything good!
However, Wu Han didn't care much.
His entire attention was now focused on tending to the "Sacred Dragon Rice Tree."
The "Sacred Dragon Rice Tree" was now bearing one "flower bud" after another, and it should blossom tomorrow or the day after!
How magical!
The growth speed was truly astonishing!
As expected of a "divine seed" bestowed by the "Dehua Divine Cult"!
Thinking of the "Dehua Divine Cult," Wu Han's heart felt warm, and a power called "faith" filled his entire being.
He was fearless!
He was immune to all poisons!
Meanwhile.
The villagers on the periphery were chattering.
"Wow, that Wu Han guy is really something. Where did he get such a miraculous seed that it grew into a towering tree in three days! Could it be a seed given by an immortal?"
"Whether Wu Han's seed was given by an immortal or not, I don't know, but soon an immortal will come to teach Wu Han a harsh lesson!"
"Oh, has there been any news from Wu Dayi's side?"
"Heh heh heh, there's news already. Wu Dayi is now a favored subordinate of the Grand General of the Imperial Court. He's already persuaded the Grand General to apprehend Wu Han. We can just wait and watch the show!"
"Is that true? How could a dignified Grand General, a divine figure, listen to Wu Dayi and stand up for him?"
"You don't understand. Wu Dayi is capable and the Grand General values him... If you don't believe me, just wait. Today, or tomorrow at the latest, the Grand General of the Imperial Court will lead the imperial army to attack..."
Before he finished speaking, a drastic change occurred!
A large swarm of people flew across the sky.
They blotted out the sun and covered the heavens and earth like dark clouds, bringing an immense sense of oppression.
The villagers of Wu Family Village were all stunned by the army flying in the sky.
How terrifying!
Suddenly, a villager snapped back to reality and pointed to a person at the forefront of the "army in the sky," being escorted by two "Heavenly Demon Soldiers."
"Everyone, look quickly, isn't that Wu Dayi?"
The other villagers squinted to look.
Upon seeing him, they all became excited.
"Wow, it really is Dayi!"
"Dayi is amazing, he can even fly in the sky!"
"Wow! Is Dayi leading the imperial army to cause trouble for Wu Han this time? Heh, Wu Han is dead for sure!"
...
In the sky.
Wu Dayi's face was pale.
The cold wind gusted against his face.
As a "mortal," he could not endure this and almost threw up.
However, when Wu Dayi saw the excited and adoring expressions of the villagers below, he forcefully suppressed the urge to vomit. He managed a strained smile and waved at the villagers below.
Seeing this, the villagers became even more excited, their adoration for Wu Dayi reaching an unprecedented level.
Hmph!
"Mo Dahong" couldn't stand Wu Dayi at all.
At this moment, seeing Wu Dayi putting on a show, he snorted coldly in displeasure.
However, "Zhu Zhenguo" beside him was still smiling.
He smiled and asked Wu Dayi, "Dayi, is this your old home, Wu Family Village?"
Upon hearing this, Wu Dayi subconsciously bent his legs, intending to kneel. Only when he actually made the movement did he suddenly realize that he was flying in the sky and kneeling was impossible.
Seeing this, "Zhu Zhenguo" not only did not scorn Wu Dayi but laughed heartily instead.
"Dayi, you should have more backbone in the future and don't kneel so readily!"
Wu Dayi said sheepishly.
"Yes! Reporting to General, below is my old home, Wu Family Village. It is not far from Mu Wang City!"
Saying that, Wu Dayi pointed to "Mu Wang City" not far away.
From the high altitude, the majestic city walls of "Mu Wang City" could already be seen.
The walls were ten zhang high, as thick as mountains, exuding an imposing aura.
In some places, they faintly emanated spiritual energy, seeming to possess protective formations.
Huh?
"Zhu Zhenguo" raised an eyebrow.
This "rebel army" was quite something, their city walls were interesting!
No wonder the three "Grey-faced Nascent Soul cultivators" had fallen here.
What "Zhu Zhenguo" didn't know was that the current city walls had nothing to do with the deaths of the three "Grey-faced Nascent Soul cultivators."
The previous city walls were incredibly shoddy and had already been destroyed by the aftermath of the battle.
The current city walls were built with the heavy sponsorship of "Cao County Magistrate Cao Man."
Of course, as the "most beautiful county magistrate of the Great Xin Dynasty," Cao Man would not voluntarily donate to the "righteous army." The reason he did so was because of his "dutiful son" Cao Pi.
The moment Cao Pi and "Liu Xiuer" met, he was conquered by "Liu Xiuer's" cheat halo and vowed to be loyal to "Liu Xiuer."
"Liu Xiuer" didn't ask for anything, and Cao Pi spontaneously became a "dutiful son," reenacting the entire scenario of his third brother Cao Zhi.
He pretended to be captured and wrote to Cao Man demanding a ransom. Upon receiving the ransom, he immediately handed it over to be used as funds for building the city walls.
Such filial piety!
Thanks to the efforts of the "great filial son" Cao Pi, "Cao County Magistrate Cao Man" was now even more "popular," spitting blood six liters every day!
Getting back to the point.
After seeing the city walls of "Mu Wang City," "Zhu Zhenguo" began to slightly respect the "righteous army" – these guys were indeed capable!
"Dayi, where is this Wu Han you speak of?"
When this was mentioned, a glint of excited anticipation flashed in "Zhu Zhenguo's" eyes.
He wasn't too concerned about gathering "rebel intelligence." What he was truly interested in was "torture."
Gaga, "torture" must be fun, right!
I've recently cultivated a divine ability that can extract the souls of mortals and refine them with "yin fire," allowing the soul to experience pain a million times more intense than death...
"Zhu Zhenguo" could not wait to try it out.
When Wu Dayi heard "Zhu Zhenguo" proactively mention Wu Han, his eyes lit up.
He sneered in his heart.
Hmph, Wu Han, you damned bastard, how dare you persecute my brother and torture him into a fool! I will make you pay a hundred, a thousand times over!
With that thought, Wu Dayi immediately began to search for Wu Han in "Wu Family Village."
"Wu Family Village" was not that large, and Wu Dayi found Wu Han without any effort.
He excitedly pointed in Wu Han's direction and said.
"General, Wu Han is right there!"
