Chapter 328 Today, someone is destined to be buried here
When Wang Ju heard that Shen Cheng was killing people on the front line, he was not surprised but happy.

In a world where the power of one individual can change the course of a war, a strong leader is indispensable to the military and plays a huge role both in combat and in morale.

Although Shen Cheng's micro-control ability was criticized by his subordinates, as long as he existed, a duke could bring huge morale and confidence to the army of Yongle City.

Wang Ju had long wanted to defeat Shen Cheng by capturing the leader first, so as to achieve the goal of crushing the morale of the Yongle City army.

Unfortunately, Shen Cheng had been hiding in Yongle City and had not come out, so Wang Ju naturally had no chance to seize the opportunity. If he went to Yongle City alone, he would probably be the one to be defeated.

Now when he heard that Shen Cheng had actually come out of Yongle City, Wang Ju immediately realized that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

According to the intelligence obtained by the intelligence department, Shen Cheng came out to help open up the front line because the front-line troops in Yongle City were frustrated in their attack. After the matter is over, he will definitely retreat back to Yongle City.

Wang Ju can also use the same method to massacre the army of Yongle City to force Shen Cheng to show up.

But he was afraid that Shen Cheng would not show up at all, and instead play guerrilla warfare with him. In that case, both sides would be trapped in an endless killing game, and in the end there would be no winner.

So Wang Ju had to take advantage of the opportunity when Shen Cheng was away to catch him.

After obtaining the intelligence, Wang Ju acted decisively and left the fleet with only an adjutant, rushing towards the place where Shen Cheng appeared.

-

Shen Cheng was flying at high speed in the air. On the ground directly below him, the armies of Yongle City and King Qin were engaging in fierce offensive and defensive battles around several strategic points.

Shen Cheng did not go down to help, because if he continued to help, Yongle City’s advantage would be out of control.

He is now watching in the air, waiting for the fish to take the bait.

After Shen Cheng circled back and forth over the battlefield for more than a dozen times, the person he was waiting for finally arrived.

In the perception of the demon armor, a sun appeared in the east. It was an entity with high-intensity energy. It crossed the sky above the battlefield and rushed towards Shen Cheng.

Shen Cheng turned his head and looked towards the east. His excellent eyesight allowed him to see clearly who was coming from a distance of dozens of kilometers.

This is an old man in his fifties. His thick eyebrows and facial curves as if they were chiseled by a knife make him look intimidating and awe-inspiring.

The blue military coat fluttered on his body as he flew, looking like a pair of wings.

No, there really is a pair of wings behind Wang Ju, supporting him to fly at high speed in the air like a fighter plane.

Shen Cheng was not surprised to see that Wang Ju was so extravagant as to use his true form to travel.

According to the information from the rental house, Wang Ju is a person with life-type abilities and possesses an extremely strong body, strong enough to resist the weakness brought about by his true form.

In other words, Wang Ju can use his true form without restriction, and there is no three-minute limit.

This is also the reason why Wang Ju dared to come to Shen Cheng alone. Jin Yan and Yu Feng were no match for Wang Ju in a one-on-one fight.

Among all the dukes of the Eternal Empire, Wang Ju is the strongest, which is why he can become a dictator in the Qin Kingdom.

When Shen Cheng saw Lao Shi, Wang Ju also saw Shen Cheng.

When Wang Ju found out that Shen Cheng did not run away immediately, he realized that Shen Cheng stayed here waiting for him.

"Little devil, let me see what confidence you have."

A hint of interest flashed in Wang Ju's eyes, and then he sped up.

Shen Cheng waited until Wang Ju was some distance away before turning around and leaving.

"It's too late to leave now."

Wang Ju's loud voice sounded behind him, like a thunder in the sky, spreading throughout the battlefield in an instant.

Shen Cheng had no intention of stopping and continued to run forward. Wang Ju chased him from behind. The two of them were like two meteors across the sky, flying over the battlefield one after the other.

While running away, Shen Cheng avoided urban areas and went to remote places.

Wang Ju had already noticed something wrong with Shen Cheng's strange behavior, but he did not stop chasing him because he had absolute confidence in his own strength.

Both sides were running very fast, and soon they ran hundreds of kilometers away and came to a remote and uninhabited coast.

There is no beach here. The shore is covered with huge rocks of various shapes. The waves constantly hit the hard rocks, rolling up white waves several meters high and making a deafening roar.

The white coastline stretches out into the distance in a winding manner, dividing the earth into two halves, one half is rolling mountains, and the other half is the blue sea.

Shen Cheng stopped at the shore and looked back at Wang Ju who was chasing him.

Wang Ju also stopped, and the two were less than 20 meters apart. He stared at Shen Cheng with a pair of oppressive eyes, and suddenly said: "Boy, you really impressed me."

Shen Cheng asked curiously: "How do you say that?"

"In the entire Yongle City, the only person I care about is Jin Yan. In my eyes, you are just a foil, not even as good as that little girl from Baiye Country."

Wang Ju launched a life attack on Shen Cheng right away, and then sighed, "I thought Jin Yan would be my main opponent for decades or even hundreds of years to come, but I didn't expect that he would fall into your hands in the end. This is really beyond my expectations."

Shen Cheng folded his arms: "It's okay, you can get to know me again now."

"I really should get to know you again."

Wang Ju stared at Shen Cheng closely: "Because you are not the real Yu Feng at all."

Shen Cheng was surprised: "What do you mean?"

There should be nothing wrong with my disguise, so how come it was seen through so quickly?

Wang Ju's eyes were full of fierceness: "The real Yu Feng is a softie who looks tough but is fragile inside. He would tremble with nervousness in front of me, let alone defeat Jin Yan. But now you have arrogance in your eyes, and even I look down on you."

Shen Cheng was slightly surprised: "That's it?"

He thought Wang Ju was a part-time detective like himself and had already found the decisive evidence, but he didn't expect that he was just lying with his mouth.

In the end, he really guessed it right.

Wang Ju was very confident in his guess: "Let me guess, you must have stolen a large amount of Eternal Blood to defeat Jin Yan, but your personality was also changed by the sequelae of Eternal Blood."

Shen Cheng was speechless.

It must be said that Wang Ju is indeed quite capable.

If there was no Shen Cheng, and Yu Feng really stole the Eternal Blood from Jin Xing's body, then the development of things would most likely become as Wang Ju described.

Unfortunately, the premise is wrong, and it is useless to make wild guesses later.

Shen Cheng's silence made Wang Ju think that he had spoken the truth, and he shouted: "Idiot, even the three majesties have difficulty fighting the sequelae of the Eternal Blood, and you, an idiot, dare to go down this path." Wang Ju's anger was certainly not because he felt sorry for Shen Cheng, but because Shen Cheng's sudden act of launching a war completely disrupted Wang Ju's arrangements over the years.

All the military preparations of King Qin were aimed at the Baiye Kingdom. More than ten years ago, Wang Ju had decided on the strategy of conquering the Baiye Kingdom first and had made countless preliminary preparations for this purpose.

Wang Ju also cultivated countless spies and guides within the Baiye Kingdom, and even many military generals were bribed to ensure that the country could be crushed with ease when the war broke out.

However, Shen Cheng's sudden declaration of war with Yongle City made Wang Ju's more than ten years of hard work go to waste.

It is hard to tell whether the reason why he was so obsessed with defeating Shen Cheng was due to some personal grudges.

Shen Cheng was surprised by Wang Ju's sudden anger: "What are you so anxious about?"

"I'm not in a hurry, it's just a pity."

Wang Ju snorted: "I should have killed you when we first met."

Shen Cheng had read Jin Yan's memory and knew that he and Yu Feng had fought with Wang Ju when they were young. At that time, both of them lost badly, but Wang Ju did not kill them.

“It’s okay, you still have a chance now, do you see what’s around you?
Shen Cheng opened his arms and said, "This place is surrounded by mountains and water, and the weather is nice and sunny. It's a great place for Feng Shui. One of us is destined to be buried here today."

"Kid, stop being so mysterious."

Wang Ju opened his mouth and exposed Shen Cheng's plan: "You deliberately led me here just to kill me here. Call out your people and let me see who else you have to help you."

Shen Cheng raised a finger and pointed behind Wang Ju: "Old man, how dare you say that to me? Don't you have someone following you?"

As soon as Shen Cheng finished speaking, a young man in military uniform and glasses appeared behind Wang Ju.

The young man with glasses had a blank expression on his face, sharp eyes, and exuded an aura as sharp as an iceberg.

Shen Cheng had never seen this person, but according to the information given to him by the Astrology Palace, the young man with glasses should be the second-in-command of the Qin King's territory, and his name was Wei Jun.

Wei Jun is not only Wang Ju's trusted subordinate, but also the person who may become the second Duke in Qin's territory.

For five months since the war began, Wei Jun has been the supreme commander of the Qin King's army, commanding millions of troops to fight against Yongle City.

No one expected that Wei Jun would quietly leave his post and follow Wang Ju here.

Wang Ju laughed and said, "I am old now, and I can't be as active as you young people. Of course I need to bring a bodyguard with me when I go out.

He was determined to kill Shen Cheng this time, and in order to prevent any accidents, he called Wei Jun over from the front-line headquarters.

An old fox like him would never make the mistake of underestimating the enemy and advancing recklessly alone.

"Ginger is always spicy when it is old, and foxes are always slutty when they are old."

Shen Cheng sighed: "Fortunately, I also have the habit of bringing bodyguards with me when I go out."

As soon as the words fell, two figures appeared in the distant sea.

Both of these figures are women. They can be said to be the two most famous women in this Eternal Empire where men are valued more than women.

On the left is Yan Yin, the regent minister of Baiye Kingdom, and on the right is Ning Qing, the strongest trump card of the Astrology Palace.

The two stood on the crest of the wave and drifted with the current, looking at Shen Cheng and the other two who were confronting each other on the shore.

"Yan Yin? Ning Qing?"

Wang Ju was slightly startled when he saw two familiar figures appearing on the sea.

"White Night Country...Yongle City...Astrology Palace..."

Wang Ju murmured in a low voice, and soon his voice turned into laughter: "Hahaha, I didn't expect that after living for so many years, I would be completely tricked by a junior who looked down on me."

Seeing Yan Yin and Ning Qing appear here, Wang Ju understood that the three forces of Baiye Kingdom, Yongle City and Astrology Palace had secretly colluded with the purpose of dealing with King Qin.

Especially Yan Yin, who had just signed a ceasefire agreement and military cooperation with him on behalf of the Baiye Kingdom, and then turned around and followed Shen Cheng to ambush him.

No wonder Yongle City would ignore casualties and pursue Qin Wangling relentlessly, and no wonder Baiye Kingdom would give up its great advantage and cease fire with Qin Wangling.

It turns out that all this was a conspiracy. If Wang Ju and Wei Jun died here, then the military cooperation with Baiye Kingdom would become the rope to strangle King Qin.

After the laughter stopped, Wang Ju looked at Shen Cheng again: "Boy, you really impressed me."

This is exactly the same as the statement just made, but the meanings of the two are completely different.

I just said that Shen Cheng made Wang Ju look at him with new eyes because Shen Cheng did not behave like Yu Feng, which made people wonder if he had absorbed too much Eternal Blood and his temperament had changed drastically.

The new respect now refers to the things that Shen Cheng did in secret.

Wang Ju couldn't imagine how Shen Cheng convinced Baiye Kingdom and Astrology Palace to take such a big risk to cooperate with him and make the two major forces act according to his wishes.

Especially the Astrology Palace, which had remained neutral since its establishment, actually took sides personally. This completely broke Wang Ju's habitual thinking.

Wang Ju laughed and said, "Boy, your plan is indeed unexpected, but there is a prerequisite."

Shen Cheng nodded: "That's right, you must die today."

If Wang Ju had not died, Shen Cheng's plan would have failed, because Wang Ju would have led the Qin army to resist to the end, delaying the war for several years or even more than ten years.

But Shen Cheng only has half a year left, so he must get rid of Wang Ju, his only trouble, here today.

"It's been a long time since I've heard someone dare to speak to me like this."

Wang Ju twisted his neck and said to Wei Jun behind him: "Wei Jun, what do you think?"

Wei Jun had a blank expression on his face. He gently pushed his glasses up on the bridge of his nose with his hand and replied in a cold tone: "On the other hand, as long as we kill all three of them here, the war will be over."

"Haha, good point."

Wang Ju glared at Shen Cheng and said, "Boy, your only mistake is that you underestimated me!"

Astonishing momentum burst out from Wang Ju's body and rushed towards Shen Cheng like a raging wave. It was like a typhoon of level 10, tearing the air apart and making a deafening sound.

Wang Ju suddenly turned into a flash of lightning and pounced towards Shen Cheng.

The two sides were only twenty meters apart. Wang Ju arrived in front of Shen Cheng in an instant and collided with the energy shield he created with the core furnace.

boom!
With a deafening roar, a huge ball of light appeared on the coast.

The rapidly spreading energy swallowed up countless strange rocks and sea water below.
