122: Chapter 122 The Sixth Demon King, Oda Nobunaga!

Just as Xu Xuan was pondering how to conquer Ailao Pass, a pair of slender hands reached out from behind and pressed onto his shoulders.

"Great King~ This concubine is late. I arrived just in time to hear you discussing the conquest of Ailao Pass; it's truly interesting."

Su Daji appeared behind Xu Xuan, kneading his shoulders with her small hands.

As she spoke, Su Daji placed a glass of fruit wine in front of Xu Xuan.

Xu Xuan looked at the exquisite glass in his hand, somewhat surprised. "Oh? Where did this glass come from?"

"Glass? The Great King must mean this crystal cup. It's a small gift I specially made for you by using Spirit Fire to smelt sand."

Su Daji had specifically refined this cup for Xu Xuan to give him a little surprise. She hadn't expected that when the Great King saw the crystal cup, he wouldn't show much emotion.

It seemed the Great King was truly knowledgeable and experienced; in ancient times, crystal cups were exceptionally precious.

Xu Xuan was quite appreciative of the small gift Su Daji had sent.

It had to be said that there was a reason why ancient monarchs favored those beauties who could bring ruin to nations.

At the very least, these beauties knew how to please you and would try every possible way to make you happy.

Holding the crystal cup, he took a sip of the fruit wine Su Daji had prepared for him. Mmm, a single mouthful lifted his spirits.

The sweetness combined with the stimulation of the alcohol swept away Xu Xuan's fatigue, making his mind feel clearer and more excited.

"This fruit wine also has the effect of refreshing the mind?"

Hearing the question, Su Daji lowered her head, her voice oozing charm. "Great King~ This concubine added some herbs into it that have a refreshing and mind-clearing effect."

"I saw that the Great King was tired after a long day and was still busy with official business. My heart aches for you."

With that aggrieved, pity-inducing voice, and those gestures and expressions, one had to admit Su Daji was truly a vixen; she was exceptionally skilled at coaxing people.

Unknowingly, Xu Xuan felt light-headed and flattered by her words.

However, he did not forget that he still had serious business to attend to. Xu Xuan pointed at Ailao Pass on the screen.

"Beauty, come! Tell this King, if you were to lead the attack on Ailao Pass, what strategy would you use?"

Hearing Xu Xuan ask her to deploy troops, Su Daji set aside her flirtatiousness and revealed a serious expression.

Her serious face when she wasn't acting like a temptress had a unique charm of its own.

Su Daji stared intently at the screen and subsequently reached a conclusion.

"Great King, if we were to take this fortress by force through a normal siege, even if we threw in the island's entire population of 100,000, we might only achieve a barely pyrrhic victory."

"I believe we should use other means, such as assassination! Or poisoning. Even ghouls and some undead creatures need to drink water to stay hydrated. I can concoct a poison specifically for the Undead Race."

Hearing that Su Daji could concoct a poison targeting the undead, Xu Xuan became curious. "Oh? What kind of poison targets the undead?"

"Naturally, by using herbs with strong Yang properties to concoct a medicine that dispels evil spirits!"

Weren't Su Daji's words equivalent to the West's Holy Water for exorcism?

Xu Xuan smiled and shook his head. "The answers you and Fengxian gave aren't quite right. They both lack imagination and aren't bold enough."

Seeing the confident smile on Xu Xuan's face, Su Daji became even more curious. "Great King, could it be that you have an even better method?"

Xu Xuan stood up from the pool at this moment, water droplets sliding down his muscular lines.

Su Daji very tactfully picked up a bath towel and meticulously wiped away every drop of water from his body.

She then brought a robe for Xu Xuan and helped the Great King put on his coat.

Xu Xuan was growing increasingly fond of Su Daji's thoughtfulness. The corners of his mouth curled into a smile.

"Soon, you will all know what strategy I am using."

He stood up and climbed the high tower in the courtyard, looking out toward the distant Undead Rift Valley, where Ailao Pass was located.

"The troops have rested enough. By the time the Floating Island reaches the site, we should be able to launch the attack."

The entire city was militarized. After returning to their collective dormitories, the soldiers had been shamelessly partying; they should be exhausted by now. By the time the Floating Island flew over, they would have had enough rest.

After all, the soldiers on the island were no longer ordinary people, but Battle Qi Martial Artists.

In the early stages of the Spiritual Qi Recovery, the strength of most ordinary soldiers was at the third to fourth rank, while a small number of elite officers had reached the fifth rank.

It could be said that the soldiers under Xu Xuan were currently at the T0 level globally.

At the Floating Island's current flight speed, it would take about three hours to reach Ailao Pass, by which time the sky should be just beginning to brighten.

Xu Xuan shifted his gaze to Lv Bu on the large screen.

Lv Bu had already entered the interior of Ailao Pass. As a chess piece, he could coordinate with the attack from the inside when the time came.

On the screen, Lv Bu followed Li Shunyao and Jin Zhixian into a Lord's Fortress within Ailao Pass.

This fortress was very special!

The fortress was elevated, supported by a large number of stone pillars, suspended in the middle of the rift valley.

This effect was equivalent to a Floating Island. If an enemy attacked from below, they would have to climb the cliff walls just to attack this Ailao Fortress.

At this moment, Lv Bu looked up as a lift was lowered from above.

This was clearly plagiarizing Xu Xuan's Floating Island design!

It was just that the opponent didn't have a Floating Island, so they could only build the fortress in the gap of the rift, relying on the mountain walls on both sides to suspend it in the air.

Lv Bu, Li Shunyao, Jin Zhixian, and the others took the lift, ascending into this hundred-meter-high fortress.

As soon as they entered, Lv Bu saw a group of Japanese Lords in armor standing before them.

At that moment, a giant question mark appeared over Lv Bu's head.

"There's something not quite right about your armor?"

After Lv Bu spoke, he reached out to touch the other's armor.

He was also someone who liked armor. In all honesty, Lv Bu felt that the armor worn by these little shorties, who were barely 1.6 meters tall, was very exquisitely crafted.

But he was a bit puzzled; the weight of this armor didn't seem right.

When these Japanese Lords who had defected to the Necromancer God Lord saw that the newcomer was Lv Bu, they all showed expressions of admiration.

When Lv Bu wanted to touch their armor, they didn't refuse.

Lv Bu quickly figured it out. "Is this armor made of bamboo? Is it safe and reliable? It feels a bit untrustworthy."

The scale armor of the Han Dynasty was made of iron plates, each one very thin.

The armor of these Japanese people was made of bamboo strips, each piece quite thick, which was clearly different from Han Dynasty scale armor.

Being questioned like this by Lv Bu, these Japanese Lords felt a bit embarrassed.

But facing their idol, the Japanese Lords all remained silent, not knowing how to explain.

After all... they were indeed wearing armor made of bamboo. In Lv Bu's eyes, aside from being aesthetically pleasing, the defensive performance of this armor was lacking.

Just then! A shout rang out.

"Hey, don't look down on our armor, even if you are Lv Bu."

At this moment, a general with a rugged face, wearing a set of black and red armor, appeared before Lv Bu.

Xu Xuan looked through the screen. "A Japanese Divine General? This look, this expression... Could it be the one who destroyed temples and slaughtered Buddhas, known as the Demon King of the Sixth Heaven, Oda Nobunaga?"
