Special Expert of Beauty CEO

"Report!"

Just as Qin Tian and others were holding a meeting, a general rushed in hastily and reported: "Your Majesty, King Qin, the Ice Emperor's troops are preparing to attack the West Capital!"

Everyone was taken aback upon hearing this.

They expected the Ice Emperor to launch an attack soon, but didn't anticipate that he would dispatch troops just the day after occupying West Liang Mountain!

"Is the Ice Emperor that impatient?" Zuo Yuanhao sneered coldly, "The more anxious he is, the more it shows his insecurity. King Qin, I believe we can avoid the battle and focus on defense, wearing him down here. He definitely can't outlast us."

Zhou Yang nodded, "I think Officer Zuo's view is correct, moreover, dragging it out will minimize our casualties. However, the main question now is, how do we sustain this battle of attrition with the Ice Emperor? Previously, at Yueya City and West Liang Mountain, we couldn't fend off their attacks. Now, in West Capital City, do we have the capability to hold him off?"

Lin Yu clenched his fist, "When the time comes, my True Qi Cannon will unleash its full firepower; even if we have to fight tooth and nail, we must hold them off!"

Xiao Zhuang said, "The reason we couldn't hold back the Ice Emperor before was primarily because, aside from the masters sent by Long Yin, we didn't have more powerful masters, resulting in low morale and lack of confidence to fight back."

"But things are different now. The boss is back, and he's brought a Flying Immortal Realm master with him. Now we have the confidence to confront them directly."

Xiao Zhuang's words made everyone nod in agreement.

Xu Kuan said confidently, "As long as King Qin and a few other experts can hold off their top Great Immortal Realm peak masters, I am confident I can ensure the Ice Emperor's Golden Armor Army doesn't reach West Capital City's gates."

Relinquishing control, Xu Kuan was most confident.

Previously, the defense failed mainly because, when those Great Immortal Realm experts unleashed their powers simultaneously, they created powerful and diverse True Qi forces that overwhelmed his Flying Beast Soldiers, preventing them from forming a defensive formation according to the plan.

Therefore, Xu Kuan believes that if those experts can be dealt with, he's confident in engaging the Ice Emperor in a war of attrition!

"How many troops has the Ice Emperor sent?"

Qin Tian didn't speak, he asked the general.

"A lot, at least several hundred thousand… it seems like the entire force from West Liang Mountain has been dispatched!" the general replied.

Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent, but it was obvious to all that the Ice Emperor was truly anxious this time, deploying all forces!

"Alright, Xu Kuan and Zuo Yuanhao will set up the front-line defensive formations; Lin Yu will provide True Qi Cannon fire support; Zhou Yang will oversee troop deployment and reinforcements, with Ye Kun and Zhao Lanjin as vanguards. If the enemy approaches the city gates, follow Xu Kuan's commands and strike the enemy hard."

Qin Tian began giving orders, "Che Aijun will oversee patrols at the four city gates to prevent enemy assaults from multiple directions. If you notice anything unusual, report to Xu Kuan first, then to me!"

"As for the Ice Emperor and the experts he's dispatched, let me know when they appear. I, together with Immortal Jiu and the experts from Long Yin, will handle them."

Qin Tian made arrangements, and each general proceeded with their duties.

He then went to find Immortal Jiu, intending to persuade him to help resist the enemy. After all, Immortal Jiu was there for the wine, and it would be awkward if Qin Tian only informed him when it was time to fight, and he refused to help due to his temperament.

Immortal Jiu was in Qin Tian's wine cellar at West Capital City, where tens of thousands of pounds of well-aged wine were stored for banquets.

"Immortal Jiu, what do you think of my wine?"

Qin Tian entered the cellar, smiling at Immortal Jiu.

"Hmm, your wine is indeed delicious, hehe. It's quite a lot too. I'm planning to take all your wine here with me."

Immortal Jiu, being carefree, outright declared he wanted to take all the wine in Qin Tian's cellar.

Clearly, Immortal Jiu was very pleased with Qin Tian's wine and had no resistance to it.

Seeing the opportunity to persuade him, Qin Tian said, "Immortal Jiu, you can have all the wine here… but if you want to take it with you… I'm afraid you can't leave right now."

"Oh? What do you mean? Is there anywhere in the Spiritual Domain that I, Immortal Jiu, can't leave?" Immortal Jiu took the bait.

Qin Tian chuckled, "We're in the middle of a war here. The Imperial City's army has surrounded our West Capital City; not even a mosquito can fly out, let alone a living person like you..."

"I'm curious to see if they can stop me."

Immortal Jiu was confident, but Qin Tian felt a chill; was Immortal Jiu planning to flee on his own? Hopefully not!

"Immortal Jiu, after this battle, I plan to brew tens of thousands of pounds of the purest grain liquor for you, even better than this… it's a shame that the outcome of this war is uncertain right now, alas..."

"Heh, kid, are you asking me to fight for you?"

Seeing Qin Tian sigh, Immortal Jiu understood and laughed, "You trying to trick me?"

"Not at all, how can this be considered a trick?" Qin Tian quickly explained, "Immortal Jiu, with our current relationship, we can definitely be counted as friends, right?"

"Hmm, friends."

"Exactly, you're now a guest at a friend's home, and the friend took out all his good wine to treat you, even letting you take it all. But now this friend is being invaded and beaten by outsiders. As a friend, shouldn't you stand up and fight for him?"

Qin Tian had his plan ready, laying it out smoothly.

Immortal Jiu, besides taking drinking seriously, really didn't care about fighting, which was why he casually saved Qin Tian at the Demon Clan before.

So, after thinking, he said, "Alright, since you're my friend, I'm willing to help you solve your current trouble. But, Qin Tian, after I help you, you'll have to give me at least thirty thousand pounds of wine not worse than what you have here."

"No problem!"

Qin Tian replied cheerfully.

He left the cellar with Immortal Jiu and went directly to the city gate tower of West Capital City.

Immortal Jiu looked at the imposing Golden Armor Army of the Imperial City in the distance and said surprisingly, "Wow, this army looks impressive; from their aura, it seems they have some little tricks."

"Little tricks?"

Upon hearing Immortal Jiu's words, Xiao Zhuang and Zhou Yang were both stunned.

The Golden Armor Army, feared and dominant across the Spiritual Domain Continent, was being described as having some "little tricks" by this scruffy Daoist with a beer belly. How dismissive!
