After Xia Tian finished his training, he imdiately returned to the Manor, and he found Chen Xue was lost in thought as she continued to sigh. "What happened to you, Xue'er?"
"Hmm?" Chen Xue turned to him. "I'm thinking about Han'er, Tian. He is still disappointed by Wu Ling's departure, and he just left for the Twin Sword Sect, because he wants to focus on his cultivation."
"Well, I'm not surprised by that, Wu Ling is his first love after all." Xia Tian then sat beside Chen Xue. "But it would be better if he focused on his cultivation, and also increased his fighting ability first."
"Do you think Han'er can et Wu Ling again, Tian?" Chen Xue seriously asked.
However, Xia Tian shook his head. "Even if he can et Wu Ling again, but I'm not sure that they can be together, because the current Wu Ling is already different, Xue'er. In addition, Wu Ling's mother has a bad past, so it will prevent her from falling in love to a human."
Chen Xue sighed helplessly, and asked again. "Are that race rules immutable, Tian?"
"The rules of the Spirit Race have existed since ancient tis, and the current Spirit Emperor is very obedient to their rules." Xia Tian then held Chen Xue's hand. "It would be best if you could advise him, otherwise he would be waiting for Wu Ling in vain, Xue'er."
"En, I understand, Tian." Chen Xue could only nod at him, as she believed in his words. "I will try to advise Han'er again."
After that, Xia Tian decided to check on Zhu Yuhe's officials who were working on his designs which he gave to Zhou Xuan back then. But unexpectedly, their work was so fast, and they had already built more than 70% of his designs. 'Well, this is really good, and they'll be working it all out in no ti. And once this war is over, then the Zhu Kingdom will definitely beco the most prosperous kingdom in this southern continent.'
Since his won were still in seclusion, Xia Tian decided to enter his Ancient Sacred Realm to cultivate normally, and he only ca out the next day.

War Countdown - Four Days
The next morning, Xia Tian imdiately t his grandfather, because all the tools he needed were ready. Xia Tian, Chen Luan, Xia Ling, Ling Xiao, and many of the Zhu Kingdom's soldiers imdiately went to the location of the pits. Xia Tian imdiately set so traps in the pits, after that he asked Chen Luan to manipulate the soil again to cover the holes with a little thick soil, so that all the holes and traps were not visible from the outside.
Xia Tian then instructed the soldiers to set another trap behind the big trees around the area, he also explained to Xia Ling and Ling Xiao about his plan, including about the Golden-Tailed Scorpions, and he also asked them to deploy so soldiers to activate all those traps later.
About five hours later, they had finished the traps, Xia Tian then brought Chen Luan back to Xia Manor. After that, he checked his won one by one, and he also supplied them with his Yang Energy.
The mont he stepped into his Dual Cultivation Space, Xia Tian could feel that Zhu Yuhe's cultivation had almost broken through to the Peak Heaven Origin Realm. 'If this space hadn't gone up to level 2, then Yuhe's cultivation wouldn't have increased this fast.'
He didn't stay long in his Dual Cultivation Space, after he finished supplying Zhu Yuhe with his Yang Energy, Xia Tian imdiately entered his Ancient Sacred Realm. However, he did not cultivate imdiately, and he took out many items from the storage ring Murong Feiyan had given him, one of which was gunpowder.
[Are you serious about making that, Master?]
Xia Tian nodded to her. 'Fortunately, all the materials for making dynamite are also available on this planet, although it can't kill cultivators, it can at least blow up those ordinary soldiers.'
Alice laughed at that. [I really can't wait to see the expressions of those ordinary soldiers later, Master. Moreover, the people on this planet don't know anything like dynamite, I'm sure they'll be in complete shock later.]
'Heh, I can't wait to see their expressions myself, Alice.' Xia Tian then started assembling hundreds of dynamite, and after he finished all of them, he imdiately started cultivating again.

War Countdown - One Day
"How much longer will it take us to arrive at the Zhu Kingdom, Brother?" Hong Chen asked Hong Li who was riding beside him.
Hong Li imdiately answered his big brother's question. "If there are no obstacles, then we will arrive tomorrow morning, Brother Chen."
Hong Chen nodded in understanding, then he asked again. "Have you got any news about Zhu Yuhe, Brother."
"Zhu Yuhe still hasn't appeared in her palace, Brother Chen." Hong Li replied with a shake of his head. "Moreover, during these five days Zhou Xuan has also not appeared in the palace, our spies say that she is in seclusion."
"Humph." Hong Chen snorted, and his gaze beca extrely sharp. "Order so of our troop groups to walk in circles, we will besiege Red Stone City from all direction, and don't let anyone leave the city."
"Alright." Hong Li imdiately carried out his big brother's orders, and three groups of soldiers quickly circled around to surround Red Stone City.
-----------------------------------
Zhu Kingdom Army Camp (North of City)
"Old Ling, our surveillance soldiers said that Hong Chen divided his troops into four groups." Ling Xiao said after he got the voice transmission. "According to their observations, Hong Chen and his main army will arrive tomorrow morning, and it seems they intend to besiege our city from all directions."
Xia Ling raised his eyebrows hearing that. "Then where is Hong Chen's position? Did he take the straight path to this city?"
"Yes." Ling Xiao nodded to him. "Hong Chen and his main army are moving straight towards the city, but they are still far behind their cannon fodders."
Xia Ling fell silent, and thought about the steps they should take to counter Hong Chen's move. Before long, he said to them. "In my opinion, we let Hong Chen's main force pass through the trap first, and we'll wait for them here for the actual war. As for Old Mang's army preparing to intercept the enemy forces in the west of the city, then Old Jin will intercept the enemy troops in the west. east of the city, and Old Wan standing by in front of our traps to finish off Hong Chen's cannon fodders, I'm sure they won't be ready for our impromptu attack. After they clear them, then they should imdiately join us, that way we can face the major forces Hong Chen at maximum strength."
"Well, I agree with that." Ling Xiao and the three generals answered in unison. "Then we will move right now."
