I'm the villain in the book

Chapter 447 Falling into Despair Again
After half an hour.

Outside the city, the ferocious Daning army had already sounded the gong to retreat, and the originally fierce battlefield seemed to have become silent in an instant.

Not only that, Wu Ding also ordered the entire army to retreat for the first time since the war started.

Although it was only three miles away, it meant that the encirclement outside Fengyuan City, which was approaching every day, finally loosened.

And what caused all of this was, of course, the seven second-rank masters who suddenly appeared on the battlefield.

Yes, one or two people may not be able to influence the direction of a war.

But when seven second-ranks go to war at the same time, the situation is uncertain.

Therefore, the frightened Wu Ding immediately made the safest response——

The whole army retreated three miles, suspended the attack, sent a letter back to Daning, and Ning Yongnian decided whether to fight or stop.

Of course, this is bound to shake the morale of the army.

But Wu Ding had no choice.

Before he figured out what the origins of these seven people were, it was impossible for him to continue attacking at the risk of ruining the victory, so he could only grit his teeth and temporarily avoid the edge.

In this way, hundreds of thousands of people in Daning quickly retreated in an atmosphere of depression and fear, and even the corpses of their own soldiers had no time to restrain themselves.

At the same time, the civil and military officials in the Dafeng Palace were all in high spirits, thinking that the war had finally ushered in a turning point.

but
At the end of Haishi.

Dafeng Palace, Tianlu Palace.

"I will never forget the life-saving grace of the seniors."

In the hall crowded with no less than a hundred people, Li Wutong, who had already bandaged his injuries, respectfully and deeply saluted the seven people sitting on the left.

And as she said these words, all the court officials in the room immediately shut their mouths, not even daring to breathe too loudly.

Obviously, this scene is very different from half a month ago.

And the reason why the attitude of the court officials towards Li Wutong has undergone such an earth-shaking change, on the one hand, is because the latter has shown enough bravery in the past half month, and on the other hand, it is because of the seven people sitting here .

At this moment, no one knows that these people are here for Li Wutong.

To put it more bluntly, these seven masters were sent by Wei Changtian to help his future wife.

Although no one understands why Wei Changtian can master such a terrifying force, everyone is very clear about one thing——

That is, without Li Wutong, today's scene would never have happened.

After all, Shuzhou is also at war right now, and it is also at the time of employing people.

No one thought that Wei Changtian would have such a "spirit of dedication" that he would leave his base camp alone and instead come to save Dafeng from danger.

Therefore, Wei Changtian could only do this because of Li Wutong.

And Li Wutong himself is obviously aware of all this.

"."

Her shoulders shrugged slightly, looking at the seven people opposite with calm expressions, the emotion in her heart at this moment has reached an indescribable level.

At this moment, Li Wutong just wanted to end the war earlier, heal Li Qi sooner, and then marry Wei Changtian, and never leave that man again.

This impulse is so strong that she even wants to rush to Shuzhou desperately now.

However, Li Wutong also knew that she could not do this.

Because she is still the princess of Dafeng, and the last spiritual pillar of tens of millions of people in Dafeng.

So she needs to stay and lead Dafeng to win the battle to protect the country.

"."

Taking a deep breath and restraining his mind, Li Wutong once again bowed deeply to the seven people.

"Seniors, I don't know how Mr. Wei is doing now?"

"My Dafeng is now in a time of crisis, but I can have a few seniors to help me. I am really grateful."

"It's just that I don't know how many seniors came to Fengyuan. Will it delay the war in Shuzhou?"

Obviously, Li Wutong is very worried that he will be dragged down by him in the war in Shuzhou at the moment, that's why he asked this question.

The seven people opposite her looked at each other, and then an old man in a gray robe shook his head and replied:
"Princess, I think you have misunderstood."

"Misunderstand?"

Li Wutong was taken aback: "Senior, I don't understand what you mean."

"Well, it's also our fault that we didn't make it clear just now."

The old man in gray robe glanced at Li Wutong calmly, and then calmly explained:
"Princess, we are here following the order of Mr. Wei."

"But we will only take you back to Shuzhou, as for the rest, forgive us for being helpless."

"Predecessor, senior."

Li Wutong's eyes widened suddenly: "I, I still don't understand"

"Cough, then the old man will make it clearer."

The gray-robed old man coughed dryly, and there was a bit of pity in his eyes.

"Princess, our mission this time is to escort you to Shuzhou safe and sound."

"As for the battle between Dafeng and Daning, we will not intervene."

"I wonder if the old man can explain clearly this time?"

In the first half of the month, the sky is very quiet, and there is a lot of dew falling among the leaves.

As if time stopped suddenly, just after the old man in gray robe finished his last sentence, the brightly lit hall instantly became silent.

Powerless, will not interfere.

No one knows what these two words mean.

It is precisely because of understanding that everyone is so shocked.

It turned out that these seven second-rank masters came to Fengyuan just to pick up Li Wutong.

As for Dafeng's life and death, they, or Wei Changtian, didn't care at all!
"Everyone, seniors!"

Among hundreds of astonished and desperate eyes, Li Wutong was the first to recover.

She took a staggering step forward, and the next moment she knelt down in front of the seven without any hesitation.

"I'm not afraid of the jokes of my predecessors, I'm really at the moment of life and death!"

"If Fengyuan City is destroyed, Dafeng will perish!"

"So, so, I implore all seniors to help me out!"

"No matter what conditions the seniors have, I can agree to them!"

"Yes, yes! This palace will send a letter to Mr. Wei to clarify this matter with him!"

"."

From Li Wutong alone to everyone in the entire hall.

Within a few breaths, all court officials in the hall followed Li Wutong and knelt down on the ground, shouting "Please help me, seniors".

At this moment, everyone is unwilling to see this last straw slipping through their fingers.

However, the rule of Kuilong people "not to participate in secular power struggle" is absolutely impossible to be broken just because of their kneeling.

"Ugh"

"Princess, the old man understands your mood at the moment, but..."

Sighing deeply, the gray-robed old man waved a gentle inner force to lift Li Wutong up through the air.

"But we really can't help you."

"Even if you plead with Mr. Wei, it won't help, so you should die."

"."

From the perspective of the old man in gray robe, what he said meant that even Wei Changtian could not force them to violate Kuilong's rules.

But for Li Wutong who doesn't know what Kuilong is at all, she can only understand this sentence as——

Wei Changtian is willing to save her, but he will never save Dafeng for her.

"For, why."

When the misunderstanding appeared, Li Wutong inevitably fell into a kind of contradiction.

She didn't understand why Wei Changtian was so ruthless even though he sent so many experts here.

She didn't understand why Wei Changtian didn't understand the truth that it was absolutely impossible for her to abandon Dafeng and live alone.

"I, I won't go to Shuzhou!"

Raising his head with tears in his eyes, Li Wutong tried to use himself to keep the last hope of Dafeng.

She stared at the old man in gray robe, clenched her fists and said tremblingly:

"I'm Dabong's princess! I won't go!"

"."

From beaming, to despair, to tit for tat.

Because of Li Wutong's words, the atmosphere in Tianlu Hall suddenly became tense.

But the old man in gray robe didn't care much about it, he just shook his sleeves lightly.

"Princess, Mr. Wei said it."

"As long as your life is threatened, then we must take you back to Shuzhou."

"This matter does not require your consent."

"boom!!"

In an instant, the internal forces in the bodies of the seven second-rank masters circulated crazily at the same time, and the strong oppressive force even made the stone pillars around the hall tremble slightly.

The corner of the clothes was windless and automatic, the old man in gray robe slowly took a step forward, his expression became serious for the first time.

He glanced indifferently at the court officials who were trembling on the ground, as well as the imperial guards who kept pouring in outside the hall, and then said in an almost threatening tone:

"Princess, I hope you don't make things difficult for me, otherwise we don't mind taking you away by force."

"Of course, if you think you can stop me from waiting, then you can try."

"But I'm afraid that if this happens, you Dafeng will perish faster."
