And if he came to Dongshi to hide after assassinating King Yan, it would obviously be too late.

As long as Zhao Xun can capture this difference, he can find the assassin naturally.

…

…

This was the first meeting between Jie Ligu and Nora in Chang'an City.

In fact, although the two of them were both prairie barbarians, they had only met twice before, both times on the vast Mobei prairie.

"You performed this mission very well."

Jie Ligu nodded and praised Nora.

"Prince Yan's Mansion is heavily guarded, how did you succeed?"

"It doesn't matter if it's heavily guarded. I can sneak in easily as long as I do what they like."

Nora sneered and said: "That guy is a very lustful ghost. As long as I sacrifice myself, I can make his lustful mind go crazy."

"Thanks for your hard work."

Jie Ligu made a strange sound in his throat, and then a transformed figure appeared on his head.

At this moment, Jie Ligu's voice was completely replaced, as if he was a different person.

"Is the High Priest...see High Priest."

Nora immediately knelt down on one knee and said respectfully with a very pious attitude: "I don't know when the high priest will enter Chang'an City."

"not the right time yet."

The high priest's majestic voice sounded again.

"Wait until the west and south are approaching, then I will show up."

High priests have always belonged to the category of wizards.

They are not good at melee combat, but are good at using spells.

Spells require time and distance.

The longer the casting time and the farther the distance, the greater the power of the spell.

This is exactly the same as the ancient witchcraft of monsters.

Even the witchcraft of the Southern Barbarian Gu Masters is to some extent a variant of the spells of the High Priest of the Demon Sect.

In other words, a long time ago, there was only one kind of witchcraft, and it was divided into different families later.

"With the Protectorate in charge of the Western Region, it's impossible for the tribes in the Western Region to break through the defenses in a short time, right?"

Nora was somewhat skeptical about this.

It's not that she doesn't trust the tribes in the Western Regions, it's just that the troops deployed by Zhou Dynasty in the Western Regions are too capable.

The fighting ability and willpower of the grassland people are not comparable to those of other tribes in the Western Regions.

The reason why the various tribes in the Western Regions can survive to this day is largely due to Buddhism.

Buddhism in the Western Regions was born out of Esoteric Buddhism and is completely different from Buddhism in the Central Plains.

It is precisely with the support of Buddhism in the Western Regions that the various tribes in the Western Regions can compete with the Anxi Protectorate to this day.

"This time, that time."

The majestic voice of the high priest convinced Nora that there was still hope for the tribes in the Western Regions.

"The Anxi Protectorate is in serious internal strife. Feng Hao, a mere second-grade man, can't change anything."

In the eyes of the high priest, the second grade is nothing more than an ant.

"What about the south? Witch and Gu Master..."

Nora is obviously more optimistic about the Southern Barbarians, probably because the Northern Barbarians and the Southern Barbarians were one family a long time ago.

Since they are of the same ancestry and origin, they naturally need to be closer.

Even if we break up in the future, this love will never completely disappear.

"The Gu Master will also come."

The high priest said calmly: "So, we will definitely work together to take Chang'an by then."

No...the high priest seems to have missed something...

Nora felt that something was missing and tried to think about it.

After a long time, she asked almost instinctively: "It's the east, where are the East China Sea Monster Kingdom and the East Vietnam Kingdom? Didn't they also agree to join the battle?"

Nora is a real northern barbarian.

In her understanding, once she has agreed, she must try her best to fulfill it.

Otherwise, what is the point of the promise?

Faith is like a promise, and the five mountains are insignificant.

This is what Central Plains people like to say most.

Nora thought it made sense.

"The Monster Kingdom of the East China Sea probably won't come."

The high priest sighed, his voice full of exhaustion.

"They made a big mistake by attacking the southeast in advance."

"At that time, the Great Zhou Dynasty sent many practitioners to the southeastern coast, including the academy and the Taoist sect. The ghost of the mountain chief's clone also appeared. The Monster Kingdom was defeated miserably and suffered heavy losses."

After a pause, the high priest continued: "So their vitality is seriously damaged and they should not come back in a short time."

"As for Dongyue Sword Pavilion..."

The high priest changed the subject and said: "They should be waiting and watching. Sword Master Wei Wuji entered Chang'an City twice but failed to return. This is just because he is worried about the mountain chief. If the mountain chief doesn't take action, he may not dare to show up."

When Nora heard this, she couldn't help but cursed in her heart.

It is said that the Dongyue Sword Master is invincible and arrogant, but from this point of view, he is actually a coward.

"In other words, this Wei Wuji is picking up the slack."

"You can also say that."

The high priest said slowly: "I think he will come eventually. He will not be able to swallow this breath after all."

"But he will only come when we are at a fierce fight with the Zhou army, so as to fish in troubled waters."

The high priest knows very well that there are only a few top powerhouses in the world.

They are all scheming, it's just to see who can calculate more thoroughly.

"So, High Priest, what should we do now?"

The more Nora listened, the more she felt confused, and the more she listened, the more she felt like the clouds and mountains were shrouded in mist.

"Wait, wait for the opportunity."

Even the high priest did not have the confidence to swallow up Chang'an City in one go.

As long as Shan Chang is there, Yuan Tiangang is there, and Zheng Jie is there, Chang'an City will not be a soft persimmon that can be manipulated by others.

"As commanded."

Since the high priest said so, Nora will naturally abide by it.

Then the illusion on Jie Ligu's head gradually disappeared, and Jie Ligu regained control of his body.

"What did I say just now? Oh no, what did the high priest say..."

Although Jie Ligu knew that he had just been possessed by the high priest, he did not know what the high priest actually said.

And Nora was the only one who heard what the high priest said just now.

Curiosity prompted Jie Ligu to ask.

"The high priest told us to be patient and wait for the arrival of the allies."
