Chapter 72: Calling for the whole world, heroes respond

Time flows like water and flies like an arrow.

In the blink of an eye, a few days passed.

The request submitted by Lu Shuyu to the Spirit Realm has been approved by the Imperial Spirit Envoy. The Spirit Realm agrees that the Hall of Heroes can recruit troops from Zhenhun Street in the North District nearby, and allow the Zhenhun generals of the recruited troops to replenish their own troops.

The Hall of Heroes issued a call to all heroes and people with lofty ideals in the world to jointly fight against Dong Zhuo, and promised generous rewards after destroying Dong Zhuo.

At once, people from all over the world gathered to respond.

……

The main hall of the Hall of Heroes.

Lu Shuyu is handling matters related to the joint campaign against Dong Zhuo.

Li Ye came to the main hall, walked to Lu Shuyu's side, and said to Lu Shuyu:
"Commander-in-chief, I want to go back to Chang'an Street and lie down first."

Lu Shuyu's eyes flashed, and he turned to look at Li Ye and asked:

"The war is imminent, what do you want to do when you return?"

Li Ye replied:
"This time the operation is in the northwest region. I want to go back and make some arrangements first. I estimate that most of those who respond to the call will be from the northwest region. I can gather them together first."

Lu Shuyu didn't say anything, but lowered his head to think for a moment, then said:
"Okay, you go back to Chang'an Street first."

Starry night, night covers the earth

Li Ye, Gao Chong and six others set out on the journey to Chang'an Avenue.

The sound of horse hooves was dense and rapid, and Li Ye and his group were galloping under the night.

……

Li Ye's purpose of setting out early was very simple, which was to create a time difference, meet the heroes first, and become the leader in advance. By that time, the matter would be done and Xiang Kunlun would not have changed anything. If he did anything weird, his prestige would be damaged.

Li Ye returned to Chang'an Avenue. Chang'an Avenue, which he had been away from for several months, was still prosperous and orderly.

During the time when Li Ye was away, Chang'an Avenue had been expanded to include 18 surrounding streets to implement the strategic arrangements of Li Ye and Fang Shuwen, continuously and secretly expand military forces, prepare various strategic materials, and build war facilities. As long as troubled times come, with a single order, Chang'an 19th Street can be transformed into a huge super war fortress.

Li Ye gathered everyone together and held a general meeting of Chang'an.

Li Ye sent a message to Fang Shuwen long ago to tell him to pay attention to Dong Zhuo's situation in Feixiong Street.

"Boss, Dong Zhuo's power has expanded and he has already captured and annexed the three Soul-Restoring Streets surrounding Feixiong Street. Now the four Soul-Restoring Streets are connected vertically and horizontally, and have turned into a solid war fortress."

Fang Shuwen talked about Dong Zhuo's recent situation.

"This Dong Zhuo is really tricky, it's going to be a tough battle!"

Li Ye frowned.

"However, when Emperor Taizong was fighting Liu Wuzhou in the past, the situation was extremely dangerous. Facing Liu Wuzhou, who dominated Hedong, he fought eight battles in one day. For three days, he did not take off his saddle, clothes, or food or water. As his descendant, how could I be afraid of fighting a tough battle!"

Li Ye's brows relaxed, his face full of determination and confidence.

"Now almost all the surrounding Zhenhun generals have gathered their troops at Yumen Street. This is a strategic pass in the world. We need to defend it from the danger and guard against Dong Zhuo's Xiliang army."

"After the Hall of Heroes issued the call, heroes from the northwest also rushed to Yumen Street."

Fang Shuwen continued to explain the current situation.

"In that case, I will set off for Yumen Street now."

Li Ye took Gao Chong and six others, as well as Wang Shichuan, Li Jingyun and others and rushed to Yumen Street.

Their guardian spirits, Li Ji and Wang Zhongsi, are both war gods, and their expertise is suitable for them.

……

At the same time, in the wilderness east of Yumen Pass, a horse was galloping in the Gobi Desert, its hooves stirring up waves of yellow sand and the sound of horse hooves clattering incessantly.

Sitting on the horse's back was a very sturdy man, tall and mighty. He was much taller than an ordinary person, with a broad chest, broad shoulders, and well-developed muscles, showing a strong sense of strength. He was sturdy and powerful, looking very strong, giving people a strong sense of security.

His face is resolute and his eyes are sharp. His eyebrows are thick and upright, his eyes are sharp like an eagle, his nose is high and his mouth is tightly closed, giving people a firm and confident impression. His face is resolute and courageous, and he looks very majestic and domineering.

"Li Ye? I want to see if you are worthy of my loyalty."

The man looked at the majestic Guancheng not far away, stopped his horse and muttered to himself.

A huge figure like an iron tower emerged behind him, like a black-faced evil spirit.

"Your Majesty, does he have your demeanor?"...

In the distance, the sound of horse hooves could be heard, and two figures riding tall horses were seen approaching the Yumen Street city gate quickly.

After confirming their identities, two men in armor and spiritual robes riding on their horses arrived at the magnificent and ancient city gate in the blink of an eye.

Among them was a young man who was about twenty years old. He looked at the government office located in the center of the city with a sharp gaze. A hint of excitement flashed in his eyes, but he did not slow down the speed of his horse at all and wanted to gallop towards it.

"Yuchi Lietang, I want to see whether your Yuchi is more powerful or my guardian spirit is better!"

The sturdy man who looked a little older, with a sallow complexion and lightning-like eyes, had already noticed his younger brother's intention. His expression changed slightly, and his strong hands grasped the young man's shoulders. He used such great force that the young man had to pull the reins to lift the horse before he could stop.

The young man looked unhappy, turned his head and looked at the strong man, and said angrily:
"Brother! Why are you stopping me?!"

The sturdy man stared at the hall in the distance, and said to his brother in a deep voice with anger in his tone:
"Xiao Fan, this is Yumen Street, where the heroes of the northwest gather. You are galloping on the street like this, which is a provocation and too rude!"

These two men are brothers. The strong man is the older brother named Sun Yang, and the younger brother is Sun Fan. They are responsible for guarding Dengzhou Street in the East District.

The young man looked disapproving, curled his lips in disdain and said:
"Brother, the Hall of Heroes invited us to fight against the devil Dong together. We are already giving them face by coming. Look at those soul-suppressing generals in Black Mountain Street, Tan Bao Hall, Dingyuan Street, and Lanzhan Street. They don't care about him."

"Besides, I heard that Yuchi Lietang is here too. His guardian spirit is the black-robed general of the Tang Dynasty, Yuchi Gong. I've wanted to compete with him for a long time! That's why I came. Brother, think about it. If I beat him, I'll give Yuchi Gong a nickname, and it'll be...'Little Sun Xin' Yuchi Gong! Hahahaha..."

Sun Fan couldn't help laughing out loud as he thought of the joyful things in his mind.

I am young and hot-headed and ignorant, but as an elder brother, Sun Yang knows very well that in the mansion not far away, there are powerful and oppressive auras like dragons and tigers, which almost make people breathless. The underworld is really full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers. Before, living in a corner of Dengzhou Street was really like sitting in a well and looking at the world.

……

The Hall of Heroes is where the heroes who are summoned live.

Sun Fan stepped into the hall and found that there were already dozens of people there, both men and women, young and old, wearing different clothes and with different temperaments.

Seeing the Sun brothers from Dengzhou Street coming in, some of the Soul-Suppressing Generals nodded in greeting to the elder brother Sun Yang.

His younger brother Sun Fan was extremely excited. He looked at all the strong men in the hall with his heart surging and his emotions were up and down.

Wherever Sun Yang's eyes went, the names of the Soul-Suppressing Generals emerged in his mind. Each Soul-Suppressing General was a famous figure. It was very exciting for him to meet so many powerful people at the same time.

"This is the Soul Suppressor of Huaili Street, Huangfu Shan."

"This is Qiantang Street's Soul Suppression General, Zhu Yun."

"This is Wuyang Street's Soul Suppressor, Dou Feiyu"

……

Sun Yang introduced the Soul-Suppressing Generals in front of him to his younger brother Sun Fan.

A graceful and beautiful woman is leaning on the railing and gazing into the distance. She is like a willow swaying in the wind, with a unique charm. Her eyebrows are slightly furrowed, her eyes are like spring water, and her whole body is naturally surrounded by a quiet and elegant aura.

The blue lake, the drizzle, and the beautiful woman, it is truly a beautiful scene on earth.

"This is the Soul Suppression General of Yunqing Street, Yan Xi."

Sun Fan looked at Yan Xi's eyes which suddenly burst into brilliant light, and his soul almost flew away.

Unlike his younger brother Sun Fan, whose eyes had already fallen on the beauty and could not be moved away, his elder brother Sun Yang quickly scanned the many Soul-Suppressing Generals in the hall. There were some acquaintances, and the others were basically Soul-Suppressing Generals located nearby, and most of them had been harassed by Dong Zhuo's forces in Feixiong Street.

Of course it is impossible to summon all the Soul-Suppressing Generals from the Northwest, as there would be too many of them.

Sun Yang thought to himself that with his fourth-class Jiao Re strength, he was considered to be on the upper side among everyone in the hall, and was quite strong!
"Huh? Who is this person?!" Sun Yang's pupils suddenly shrank. A thin middle-aged man was leaning against the pillar of the room, dozing with his eyes closed.

When Sun Yang first saw this man, he felt that his aura was strong and should not be underestimated. But when Sun Yang looked closely, he felt a breath that seemed to break the sky and split the earth, as if tearing open the void, which made him shudder.

It was as if a divine spear that could break the sky was standing here!
The middle-aged man seemed to sense something. He raised his eyelids slightly and glanced at Sun Jian with a cold and indifferent look. Then he closed his eyes and ignored him.

But just one glance made Sun Yang's exposed skin feel slightly stinging.

Sun Yang felt awe in his heart, this person must be the most outstanding and powerful one in the hall!
Just when the strong men in the hall were confused, the sound of footsteps was heard outside the door.

A man as burly as an iron tower walked in. He had a dark complexion and a tall and strong figure.

He glanced at everyone in the hall and spoke in a muffled voice:
"I am Yuchi Lietang, the Soul Suppression Commander of Black Evil Street. Nice to meet you all."

After saying that, he walked into the hall and found a spacious seat to sit down.

Sun Fan, who had originally clamored to challenge Yuchi Lietang, was intimidated by his aura.
