Summoners: One Golden Term per Level

Chapter 424 - 20: Make the Real Seem False, Make the False Seem Real

Gonggong heard Chi Songzi’s resentful words, and his face turned extremely grim, he said coldly, "When I was waging war for the tribe, you were still cultivating."

"Are you confident that this weapon can hold its ground when needed?"

"Easier said than done, can you manage to push the front line back across the river?"

Gonggong himself was feeling exceptionally irritable, naturally speaking in a harsh tone. He was never a person with a good temper.

"I’ll naturally find a way," Chi Songzi snorted coldly, the quarrel between the two wasn’t concealed.

The people around didn’t dare to breathe loudly, listening to the argument between the two.

Gong Xun cautiously asked, "Are we supposed to go back to rest now?"

"What rest? Everyone shall set camp! One day without rest or cultivation won’t matter. Wait until the night falls tomorrow before resting and cultivating!"

Chi Songzi said angrily.

The entire camp dared not oppose Chi Songzi’s words, but who camps at night and rests in the morning?

There was no choice but to endure it.

Given their stamina, it’s indeed possible to manage a day without rest.

Nothing happened in the following hours, until the next morning.

Chi Songzi ordered some people to expand the alert lines while allowing others to take turns resting.

"So, when do you plan to attack?" Gonggong sneered, not being the commander really is relaxing now.

One must know they are the attackers, their logistics lines are inherently long, and pressures abound both inside and outside the tribe.

In a short period.

Lie Mountain Tribe started the attack by accusing the Jiuli Tribe of being overly brutal.

Yet, as time goes on, the reputation of the Lie Mountain Tribe deteriorates because Chi You had once offered the method of refining Divine Gold Weapons to the Human Race.

The Jiuli Tribe is also a member of the Human Race; despite the Lie Mountain Tribe disliking the Jiuli Tribe, there are always tribes that think the Jiuli Tribe is good.

Not to mention even within the Lie Mountain Tribe, some people think Shennong appointing Xuanyuan as successor was a bit swift.

Rather, let Chi You and Xuanyuan first contest before deciding.

Chi Songzi looked weary, "Just listen to my command obediently."

"Once the tribe’s craftsmen replicate the weapons, it’s the time for attack.

During this period, you must continuously use Magic to keep the mountains wet.

To prevent them from using fire attacks."

Nothing happened this day again.

Until the second night.

Chi Songzi ordered again that at night, there would be no sleep or cultivation, but vigilance and camping.

Though tiring, no one dared to complain.

Not a thing occurred overnight.

As the sun rose.

The soldiers and cultivators who guarded all night rushed back for cultivation and rest.

Though their physical condition is indeed robust, forcing a change in their life habits is quite uncomfortable.

For three consecutive days, the camp switched from daytime guarding to nighttime guarding, with daytime rotations.

In the camp.

The Golden Crow hanging high, the morning Mufu Mountain Range appearing shrouded due to Chi Songzi’s Magic.

Its thin mist, the nearby mountains seeming enveloped in a layer of smoke.

Chi Songzi sat leisurely on a chair, scoffing, "Looks like the Jiuli Tribe isn’t much, we just changed the rest time.

And they dare not make any moves."

Gonggong just responded coolly, "You merely increased the vigilance time by half."

"Boom—!"

Instantly.

A thunderous roar rang from the mountains behind them.

Gonggong suddenly sat up, his tiger eyes wide and roared, "That’s the logistics line, someone—!"

The soldiers who had just lain down heard Gonggong’s angry voice and painfully climbed up.

Even though they are in good physical condition, they aren’t designed for this kind of strain. If it happens several more times, they worry they won’t live long.

But after all, it was Gonggong speaking, and though Chi Songzi is now the commander, Gonggong was their previous commander at least.

Just took up weapons and rushed out of their quarters, assembled.

"Wait!"

Chi Songzi shouted, and the soldiers who were just about to act stopped instantly.

Gonggong looked at Chi Songzi, his face anxious, "That’s where our logistics transport is located; if our logistics are cut off, it will be difficult to continue camping here."

Chi Songzi shook his head in doubt, "Can you guarantee that’s true?

If troops are sent, what if this place is empty and Jiuli Tribe attacks?"

"Then what should we do? We can’t just ignore it."

"One of us can lead some men to check."

"Should it be me or you?"

"I’ll go, you remain here," Chi Songzi spoke, knowing staying here likely faced a Jiuli Tribe attack anytime.

Checking the logistics line would definitely be safer than remaining here.

"Alright."

Gonggong nodded, then Chi Songzi took a group of people and flew towards the logistics line.

Gonggong scanned around and said coldly, "Stay vigilant, until Commander Chi Songzi returns, no rest."

"Yes!"

And soon.

A huge roar sounded above the camp, flames exploded in the distance simultaneously.

Gonggong jumped into the sky, accompanied by another figure.

The same one who had previously left, Chi Songzi.

In fact, Chi Songzi left without concealing his form, just to show Jiuli Tribe.

Even though Chi Songzi was indeed dissatisfied with Gonggong’s defeat in the first battle, he knew Gonggong’s strength.

Even Gonggong was being suppressed.

If he left because of the logistics line, and Jiuli Tribe truly attacked,

Even Gonggong relying on Mufu Mountain Range might not win.

They had secretly discussed to avoid being lured away, so when such a thing happened.

One would pretend to leave, only a Tier Nine need actually go.

As expected, Jiuli people just wanted to lure them away.

And Gonggong suddenly froze.

Because the flames erupting at the mountainside were somewhat similar to the explosion flames at the camp earlier.

Not the artillery from crossing the river earlier.

Gonggong’s mind flashed a bad thought.

His complexion suddenly changed, "No! Their real target was the logistics line!"

Gonggong’s eyes widened, looking at Chi Songzi, "I’m going to check!"

Now Chi Songzi is the commander; even if checking the situation, it should not be Chi Songzi who goes.

"Quickly, otherwise, even Harmonization Dao Cultivation won’t withstand Jiuli Tribe, once logistics are gone.

We’ll have to keep retreating!"

Gonggong immediately transformed into a Spiritual Light and flew towards where the first rumbling sounded.

Chi Songzi shook his head.

Hope it arrives in time.

Jiuli Tribe has perfected Witchcraft.

Beyond defense.

Small detachments over the mountains intercepting them, but this is an opportunity; if Gonggong goes quickly.

It’s enough to swallow this small detachment.
