Chapter 529
Once the high-ranking Japanese officials focus their attention on him and launch a frantic revenge against him, the list of systems he desires will rise like a rocket, which is undoubtedly a brilliant move for him.
"Sir, shall we continue chasing?"
Tong Li's clear voice rang in Li Heizi's ears. There was a questioning look in her eyes. The sword in her hand was still dripping with blood, reflecting a strange light in the sunlight.
Hearing Tong Li's words, Li Heizi frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, then slowly shook his head and said seriously:
"Let's not chase them. Look, the humans and demons are fighting fiercely with the Japanese over there, and the battle is in full swing. We must not blindly get involved in their war, so as not to get into unnecessary trouble. We just need to sit back and watch the fight, waiting for the best opportunity."
After saying this, he raised his eyes and looked in the direction of the battle between humans, demons and Japanese people in the distance. There was a complex light flashing in his eyes, as if he was thinking about something.
At this moment, You Ji and his men quickly gathered around. Their bodies were stained with traces of battle, blood and dust intertwined, leaving mottled marks on their armor and skin, but their eyes burned with undiminished fighting passion, as excited and enthusiastic as a cheetah seeing its prey.
"Lord, look!"
The Rooster stood upright in a heroic manner, with the spear in his hand raised high. The tip of the spear flashed coldly in the sunlight and pointed straight forward.
"The first city of the Japanese is just ahead. Should we seize this golden opportunity and capture it in one fell swoop? It's a truly mouth-watering piece of fat!"
As he spoke, he licked his cracked lips, the desire in his eyes like a prairie fire.
"Yes, Lord."
The others nodded in agreement and started talking about it.
"Look at that city! It's truly magnificent! The walls soar into the clouds, standing tall like a giant, protecting everything within. It looks almost as large as our own Golden Light City. If we could take it for ourselves, our territory would be greatly expanded. Supplies, manpower, and all kinds of resources would pour in. Our power would surely soar to new heights."
Everyone's words were filled with beautiful visions of capturing the city, as if they had already seen the flag of victory flying over the city.
Hearing this, Li Heizi frowned deeply, as if two deep grooves were carved on his forehead.
His gaze became deep and solemn, like a deep lake, staring quietly at the Japanese city.
That gaze seemed to have penetrating power, as if it could see through the solid and thick city walls, see through every brick and tile, every blade of grass and every tree in the city, and perceive every trace of danger hidden therein.
After a long while, he slowly spoke, his voice steady and powerful, and every word seemed to strike hard at everyone's heart after careful consideration.
"Brothers, I understand how you feel right now. You're all full of fighting spirit, which is a good thing. But we can't be blinded by immediate gains. We must think long-term."
As Li Heizi spoke, he looked around at the brothers around him, his eyes full of concern and seriousness.
"We currently have a Dark City. In the Dark City, we can rest and recuperate in peace and develop our strength. We can train more monks and improve their combat effectiveness. All of this requires a stable environment, and the Dark City is our foundation."
"Also, don't underestimate the Japanese. They are like wolves lurking in the shadows, seemingly ordinary, but in fact incredibly ferocious. Among them are numerous experts, like venomous snakes lurking in the shadows, silent yet incredibly deadly. Some specialize in bizarre assassination techniques, capable of taking your life without you even realizing it; some wield powerful magic, able to unleash a storm and destroy everything with a single thought; and still others possess resilient physiques and superb martial arts, making them unstoppable on the battlefield. If we rashly attempt to seize this city now, we'd be stirring up a hornet's nest."
