Peerless Taoist

But until now, he hadn't said anything about letting Prince Gu fight.    

The Valley Prince was too old.    

After going through five dynasties, even Daolord had reached the end of his life.    

The Gu King had been injured by Tang Tian's Daolord. Until now, the Gu King was still in seclusion. Unless it was absolutely necessary, he could not let the Gu King fight.    

This was Great Yu's bottom line. Without Prince Gu, the Imperial Capital would be extremely empty, and no one would be able to suppress the Tang army.    

"He did not violate the rules. This time, he only shifted the Tang army away, and did not launch any attacks. Otherwise, at least one army would die in his hands. " Lu Yu said.    

Everyone was silent.    

Even though Daolord from the Tang Dynasty had not killed anyone himself, he had used such a method to put Great Yu in a difficult position.    

Originally, Great Yu's army had the absolute advantage, and could take advantage of the situation to chase after them. But now, all of the Tang army had been teleported away. They were filled with anger, and there was no place for them to vent it.    

"The change of the sky and the sun is not heaven defying. Those Tang soldiers can't go far."    

Lu Yu suddenly opened his hand and countless talismans fell into his hand.    

These tokens were sent out by the various Nets Above Snares Below spies. From the start of the war, the Nets Above Snares Below had already been deployed, setting up a meticulous intelligence network on the entire Imperial Capital battlefield.    

"I have found the direction of the Tang army. All troops, listen to my orders and advance towards Tiger Cage Pass!" Lu Yu ordered.    

No one objected.    

From this moment on, Lu Yu had become the core of the entire Great Yu Army.    

"We must kill all of them in this battle!" Lu Yu held the flag in his hand and waved it in the direction of Tiger Cage Pass.    

...    

The Imperial Capital was no longer as prosperous as it was in the past. The streets were filled with patrolling soldiers, and there was a somber atmosphere.    

Every fifteen minutes, a military report would be sent over from the front line, day and night.    

The Tang Army was not far from the Imperial Capital. It was like a blade that hung in everyone's heart.    

Ever since the Tiger Cage Pass and the Sishui Pass were broken through, the imperial capital was filled with wails and cries. Many people were already thinking of escaping.    

However, the Imperial Capital was now completely sealed off. Even the route to the four continents was blocked, cutting off everyone's thoughts.    

Inside the Imperial Capital, everyone was in a state of panic.    

There was a Divine Gate in the northeast corner of the Imperial Capital. Countless Imperial Army guards were guarding it. It was surrounded by three layers of land, and not even a drop of water could leak out.    

This was the entrance to the Imperial Capital. In order to guard this place well, the Imperial Court had specially sent a Marquis expert to guard this place to ensure that nothing would go wrong.    

Today, it was the Liyang Marquis, Xue Yong, who was on duty.    

He had been sitting cross-legged in the clouds all this while. A Heavenly Eye appeared on his forehead. This was his divine ability, a spell that could see through everything.    

Suddenly, Xue Yong's Heavenly Eye moved, and he looked towards the distant Divine Gate.    

At the end of the Heaven Gate, five cultivators drove their chariots over at high speed.    

Seeing the appearance of the five cultivators, all the soldiers immediately relaxed. The five cultivators were wearing the armor of the Great Yu Army and had flags on their backs. They were scouts who had sent messages.    

"A great victory on the front line. The Tang Army has been defeated!"    

All the soldiers were stunned. They could not believe what they had just heard.    

Even Xue Yong frowned. He stood up and walked over.    

As soon as the five cultivators arrived at the Divine Gate, they immediately got off their chariots and flew over. Their faces were filled with excitement.    

"The Tang army has lost! The siege of the Imperial Capital has been broken!"
