Du Ru'nan slowed his expression and asked, "Then why aren't they willing to pay their respects to me?"
"Although the results of this battle are brilliant, the alliance forces of the various sects have suffered heavy losses. There are only about 4,000 people left. The rest have already fallen. Furthermore, the survivors are exhausted. They are recovering. More importantly … Tianhuang Sect Master Chu Jun is still in seclusion to treat his disciples. They are all waiting for Chu Jun to leave seclusion!" Hou Jun said.
"Heavenly Phoenix Sect Master Chu Jun is nothing. Even the Commander-in-Chief dares not come to summon him. He still has to wait for him to come out of seclusion. Has the people of these sects eaten the courage of the Bear Heart Leopard?" One of the generals shouted harshly.
However, Du Ru'nan waved his hand and said, "Indeed, this marshal did not think carefully and caused such a heavy loss to the allied forces of the two prefectures. However, they fought valiantly and annihilated nearly 20,000 ghosts, making great contributions. This marshal should personally go and comfort them!"
An imperceptible mockery flashed through Du Ruhui's eyes as he thought to himself, "We're starting to bribe people again. Unfortunately, the sects of the two prefectures have suffered such a heavy loss this time. You, Du Ru'nan , can't casually appease them!"
Under the leadership of First Prince Du Ru'nan , a group of hundreds of people left Heavenly Arch City and arrived in front of the surviving xiuzhe. Cultivators from all sects saw a group of people coming from the city. Seeing that aura, they knew that they were not ordinary people. They couldn't help but stand up. Soon, someone recognized Du Ru'nan and Du Ruhui, and couldn't help but be shocked.
"Greetings, First Prince, Seventh Prince!" Qiu Chuji hurriedly walked forward and bowed.
When the others heard that the first prince and seventh prince were in front of them, they couldn't help but be flattered. This time, the commander-in-chief of the hundred thousand troops had actually personally come out of the city to see everyone. Everyone's originally resentful mood had calmed down a little.
Du Ru'nan "condescended" personally ran out of the city to buy people's hearts, so he naturally had to behave kindly, so he hurriedly smiled and waved his hand, "Everyone, don't be too polite. Sit where you should and lie where you should. General Liu, immediately ask Medicine Master to treat everyone's injuries!"
Cultivators from all sects couldn't help but have a good impression of the First Prince when they saw him being so easy-going!
"Everyone has made a great contribution this time. This king will definitely be rewarded heavily. All the disciples who died in battle will be given proper aftermath and generous shirts!" Du Ru'nan took advantage of the hot iron to strike again.
Unfortunately, at this time, Heavenly Arch City Master Han Geng bowed and said, "This time, Heavenly Arch City can be preserved thanks to all of you fighting hard. On behalf of Heavenly Arch City, this City Master thanks all of you, fellow Daoists!"
Once these words were spoken, the surroundings instantly became quiet, and everyone glared at him angrily!
"Bah, old dog, there's no need to pretend. If it weren't for you, you old turtle egg, not letting us enter the city, we would have lost so many people!" Someone cursed softly.
"Forget it if you don't open the city. Forget it if you don't help. You're still hiding behind your back and firing cannons. Over a thousand people were killed by this old dog Han. What a wretched death!"
"Kill this greedy old dog!"
Han Geng's face immediately turned green, and he couldn't help but take two steps back!
Seeing the surging emotions of the crowd, the experts beside Du Ru'nan were afraid that the two princes would make a mistake. They stepped forward and took out their magic treasures, releasing a powerful aura. They shouted sternly, "Impudent!"
The cultivators immediately stopped talking and retreated, but they still stared at Han Geng angrily. Everyone present had lost their good friends from the same sect, so they hated Han Geng very much. This old bastard first refused to let everyone enter the city. Then, he stood by and watched. In the end, he ignored everyone's life and death. He fired a barrage of cannons and killed nearly a thousand of his own people. How could everyone not be angry? If it wasn't for the presence of the First Prince, they would have already rushed forward to tear this old bastard apart.
Du Ru'nan furrowed his brows in displeasure and said to Han Geng, "What exactly is going on?"
Han Geng hurriedly complained, "First Prince Mingcha, in order to rescue everyone, I ordered the Spirit Astral Heavy Cannon to fire together, accidentally injuring some fellow Daoists of the allied forces of the two prefectures, so everyone has a misunderstanding of me!"
Du Ru'nan suddenly nodded and reprimanded, "City Lord, in a chaotic battle between the two armies, you must not use large-scale group-wounded spells and magic treasures to avoid accidental injuries. It would be wrong for you to use the Spirit Astral Heavy Cannon to fire together!"
"Yes, yes, this old man is also eager to save someone!" Han Geng nodded repeatedly and admitted his mistake.
Heavenly Arch City did not belong to Chongming Island, so City Lord Han Geng did not belong to Chongming Island. Du Ru'nan only reprimanded him a few times before he could no longer be punished. He also comforted the cultivators of the various sects and finally suppressed the anger of the crowd.
Du Ru'nan walked to the front of Chu Jun's tent, but the disciples of the Heavenly Phoenix Sect refused to budge. Fan Jian said indifferently, "I'm sorry, the Sect Master is treating our disciples' injuries, so it's inconvenient to be disturbed. Everyone, please stay here!"
Everyone's expressions couldn't help but change. The first prince had personally come. It was fine if you, Chu Jun, didn't come out to welcome him. Yet, you actually rejected everyone's entrance. Isn't that too ridiculous? Even if you, Chu Jun, had once offered the Xun Long Cauldron to the continent lord, you wouldn't be able to ignore the two princes this time.
Du Ru'nan 's face darkened with displeasure, but Du Ruhui secretly applauded and stood aside as if nothing had happened, preparing to watch the show. He had learned about Chu Jun from Du Wu and knew that this fellow was a thorn in the side. He dared to resist even in front of his father. This kind of person was a donkey. If you stroke it against him, he would dare to stubbornly follow you to the end.
With Du Ru'nan 's current status, he was naturally not a mediocre and incompetent person. Although he was a bit delighted, his Qi Nourishing Technique was still excellent. He quickly suppressed his anger and nodded, "Since that's the case, then this king will wait for him to come out!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of the generals varied. Some were angry, while others praised them!
Han Geng rolled his eyes and smiled complimentarily, "The First Prince is indeed broad-minded and respectful. He is truly a model for our generation!"
"Lord City Lord is so shameless, flattering us is beyond our reach!" A faint voice sounded.
Han Geng couldn't help but be enraged. He looked over and saw that the tent had suddenly opened. Chu Jun walked out of the tent and stared at him coldly. His heart tightened and he subconsciously took a step back. A trace of contempt flashed in Chu Jun's eyes. He turned his head and bowed towards Du Ru'nan , saying, "Chu Jun greets His Highness the First Prince and His Highness the Seventh Prince!"
Du Ru'nan laughed loudly, "Chu Jun, we meet again. Every time we meet, you always bring me pleasant surprises. This time, you have made a great contribution!"
"It's all thanks to the blessings of your highness!" Chu Jun said with a faint smile.
Du Ruhui teased, "Big brother and I should have been blessed by you. As soon as we arrived, you gave us a big gift and won the first round!"
"Haha, great victory? We exchanged more than 16,000 lives!"
Du Ru'nan 's expression stiffened. He sighed and said, "This Marshal is also very sad that all the sects suffered such a heavy loss. However, the war is so cruel. This Prince will definitely compensate all the sects!"
Chu Jun cupped his fists and said, "Then Chu Jun represents everyone to thank His Highness the First Prince!"
"No need, this is what this king should do!" Du Ru'nan said in a deep voice, "Although we have lost a lot, we have also annihilated more than 20,000 ghosts and ruthlessly defeated them. It can also be considered a great victory. Let's go, the brothers have all entered the city. The celebration banquet has been prepared. After everyone has had enough to eat and drink, they will go back to rest and treat their injuries." Then, Bing Feng pointed straight at Heavenly Wolf City and chased those ghosts out of Star Continent and beat them back to the Ghost World! "
Chu Jun smiled faintly and said, "The First Prince is right. We have lost so many people, so we can't help but take revenge. Chu Jun has always had a clear grudge against us. If there is a grudge, we will definitely take revenge. Please forgive us, Your Highnesses!" With that, his figure flashed and he grabbed Han Geng's neck like lightning.
Han Geng's cultivation wasn't weak, He was a mid Nascent Soul cultivator, but the distance between them was too close. Secondly, he never expected that Chu Jun would actually dare to attack him in front of the two princes. Thus, he did not have the slightest bit of precaution. He was immediately grabbed by Chu Jun's neck. By the time he reacted, Chu Jun had already poked his fingers around his dantian and sealed his Spiritual Energy.
Han Geng was both shocked and angry. "Chu Jun, what do you want?" He shouted.
When Han Geng's trusted aides saw this, they all took out their magic treasures to pounce on him. Chu Jun said coldly, "Who dares to take a step forward? Old Dog Han will die immediately. Do you believe me?"
Han Geng's trusted aides immediately didn't dare to act rashly and shouted, "Those surnamed Chu, immediately release the City Lord!"
Du Ru'nan 's expression finally darkened as he shouted, "Chu Jun, don't be so presumptuous. Release Han Geng immediately!"
Du Ruhui looked at Chu Jun with a complicated gaze. Just now, when Chu Jun suddenly took action to restrain Han Geng, he actually didn't have time to react. At that time, if the target of his attack was him … Thinking of this, Du Ruhui couldn't help but be secretly shocked.
Chu Jun pinched Han Geng's neck and said to Du Ru'nan , "Your Highness, we originally wouldn't have to die so many people, but Old Dog Han sealed off the city hall to prevent us from entering the city, forcing us to fight a decisive battle against a ghost army that is twice as strong as our own." "And at this critical juncture, this old dog actually ignored our lives and ordered the Thousand Spiritual Astral Cannon to fire together, accidentally killing nearly a thousand people from each sect. Many disciples of our sect were killed and injured, including two Golden Core disciples. As the Heavenly Phoenix Sect Master, shouldn't I seek justice for my disciples?"
"Kill him, kill this dog thief!" Cultivators from all sects stood up and shouted angrily.
Du Ru'nan 's expression became uglier and uglier. He stared at Chu Jun with a sharp gaze and said in a deep voice, "Chu Jun, release Han Geng immediately. This prince will naturally deal with him impartially and return justice to everyone!"
At this moment, Han Geng was finally afraid. This fiend star was actually not even afraid of the first prince. He was afraid that he would really squeeze himself to death on the spot!
"Your Highness, save me. This old man did as you said and allowed them to be stationed outside the city. This old man can't be blamed!" Han Geng said loudly.
Han Geng's words made Du Ru'nan 's expression even uglier. Originally, he wanted to save him, but he immediately gave up. He said in a low voice, "Han Geng, this prince wants the allied forces of the two prefectures to be stationed outside the city, but he didn't say that the ghost army wouldn't allow them to enter the city when they attacked. You killed so many people from all sects on your own initiative, and pushed them onto this prince!"
Han Geng's expression changed drastically as he hurriedly said, "Your Highness, this old man didn't mean that!"
Chu Jun shook his head pitifully. He spat out his Spiritual Energy and threw Han Geng out. There was only a sound of his neck shattering. The latter fell to the ground and did not move.
