Chapter 39: The Dark Tide Surges

Previous Chapter

In the palace-like outer hall, two rows of fragrant rosewood armchairs are neatly arranged, and in the center are placed the rosewood palace chairs that are unique to the emperor. On the side, the fragrance of Long Yanxiang rises, and the hall is filled with a faint fragrance.

"Lord Yuwen Alliance, what do you want to say when you call all seven of our masters." Fan Sheng, who was sitting on the right, couldn't help but speak. The other heads of the family immediately set their eyes on Yuwen Qingwu, who was walking slowly, and two mysterious people wearing white cloaks covering half of their faces were protecting him from side to side.

"Why should the head of the Fan family be in a hurry." Yuwen Qingwu paused and stood in front of the rosewood palace chair, stretched out his slender pale fingers and slid lightly on it, and then turned around.

Shangguan Qiren, who was at the top of the right, secretly observed Yuwen Qingwu - this Xuanzheng Alliance leader who held supreme power and the fate of the entire divine domain seemed to be pinched by him was a tall and thin boy in his twenties with a pale complexion and a feminine appearance, and the cultivation of the two white-robed guards standing beside him was not under him.

Each god domain has a ruler, and the ruler of the Lingguang God Domain is the Ling clan, the first emperor died not long ago, and the current successor is the original crown prince Ling Zhige. Although Ling Zhige was nominally the Emperor of the Divine Domain, he was still young after all, so the real power fell into the hands of Xuan Zhengmeng, and Yuwen Qingwu took the power alone.

The Xuanzheng League is the medium through which the emperor conveys power, and the leader of the Xuanzheng League is responsible for sharing the worries and giving advice to the emperor. In addition, there is also the Zhizheng Alliance, which was originally a blade for the emperor to use power, but now it has degenerated into a tool for Yuwen Qingwu to borrow a knife to kill people.

"Calling you all here, of course, there is something to discuss." Yuwen Qingwu sat down in his position and said, "Everyone must know about the fact that the guardian beast of the Lingguang Divine Domain was born in the sky not long ago. ”

Everyone below looked at each other and was silent, waiting for Yuwen Qingwu's next words.

"You must be curious about which child of the gifted god awakened such a powerful soul beast." After Yuwen Qingwu finished speaking, he lowered his eyes and gently touched the jade wrench on the thumb of his left hand.

As soon as these words came out, the heads of the families began to become agitated, and the heads of the Wen family couldn't hear the sound and asked, "Could it be that the master of the Yuwen Alliance already knows who it is?" ”

Yuwen Qingwu raised his eyes and smiled slightly, "I don't know who it is, but the portrait of that person is already in my hands, and I have already spread it, in addition, I released the news that the demon felony Fraser was trapped in Shatan City, presumably those demon clan comrades who have been asking for news about Fraser will not miss this information." Once Shatan City is invaded by the demons, the talented son of the god who has the guardian beast of the Lingguang Divine Domain will have to take on the responsibility of guarding this divine domain, as long as he dares to show up, he will definitely fall into my net. ”

"You've used the inhabitants of Shatan City as bait!" Huo Guiyuan, the head of the Huo family, was shocked.

"But just a few wanderers, don't forget, most of the people on the border of Shatan are exiles, and their sacrifice in exchange for the divine beast Vermilion Bird can be regarded as their contribution to the emperor." Yuwen Qingwu didn't care.

"The leader of the Yuwen Alliance wants us to help you arrest people?" Gong Xingyun, the head of the palace family, who had been silent for a long time, frowned and said in a deep voice.

"No, no, no." Yuwen Qingwu chuckled and waved his hand, "I just need you not to interfere." ”

"Why do you think we'll cooperate with you?" Gu Chengzong, the head of the Gu family, raised his chin and sneered.

"This question of the head of the Gu family really makes Qingwu difficult." Yuwen Qingwu frowned, touched his smooth chin and showed a little embarrassment, "Is the head of the Gu family trying to go against Xuan Zhengmeng?" ”

Gu Chengzong's face suddenly turned a little ugly when he heard this, if it was in the past, their seven great families might still be fearless, but now the Xuanzheng Alliance is dominant, and there is the support of the Zhengzheng League behind them, these two forces are not something that they can afford to provoke a single family. Gu Chengzong lowered his head stupidly and stopped talking.

"I thought it was something important, if you don't say that my Lao Fan doesn't bother to take care of this matter, I'll leave if there's nothing else, don't affect my drinking." Fan Shenghu stood up and drove away with a grin.

"The head of the Fan family is really bold, and I will let someone send good wine over later." Yuwen Qingwu smiled heartily.

Fan Sheng waved his hand and laughed and went out.

"What do the other heads of the house mean?" Yuwen Qingwu turned his eyes, still smiling on his lips, but his eyes were as cold as a deep well.

"Since the Yuwen Alliance Lord has intervened in this matter, our family heads have nothing to say, so we will leave." Gong Xingyun, Gu Chengzong, I can't hear it and leave one after another. Huo Guiyuan's eyes moved slightly, and finally sighed and left. Yuwen Qingwu saw it in his eyes, but he didn't say anything.

"Then what does the head of the Shangguan family and the head of the Nanming family say?" Yuwen Qingwu looked at the last two.

Shangguan Qiren Huo Ran got up, "The master of the Yuwen League has spoken, how can Shangguan have a reason to refuse, today when I see the master of the Yuwen League, he is really worthy of his name, and he is really the show of my juniors." ”

"Hahaha, the head of the Shangguan family praised it falsely, and Qingwu is ashamed." Yuwen Qingwu waved his hand with a shameful face, but there was still no fluctuation in his eyes.

Shangguan Qi secretly thought in his heart: This sub-city government is extremely deep and ruthless, coupled with the power in his hands, just the two white-robed guards around him are terrifying. Now it is not yet to be offended, and it is not to be brought too close.

Nan Ming, the head of the Nanming family, who had never spoken from beginning to end, stood up, "If people don't offend me, I won't offend people, so I will leave." After speaking, he glanced at the two of them, and didn't want to stay for half a minute.

"In that case, Shangguan has also resigned." Shangguan Qi and the people left.

"The head of the Shangguan family walks slowly."

In the blink of an eye, the lobby, which had been a little crowded, became empty. Yuwen Qingwu gently touched the jade wrench, and the corners of his mouth showed a smile of unknown meaning.

"Nanming is very interesting."

"Bai Zuo, send an order to the Zhizheng Alliance, send at least a soldier who has cultivated as a demon slayer or above, and once the resident of Suzaku appears, be sure to capture him back."

"Yes." The white-robed man on the left took the order and disappeared in place.

"The hunt has begun." Yuwen Qingwu then turned his face and ordered: "Bai You, don't bother me unless there is news from Suzaku during this time." ”

"Yes, sir." Bai You received the order but did not leave.

"Anything else?" Yuwen Qingwu squinted and said.

"My lord, that Huo Guiyuan ......" Bai You showed a hesitant look.

"A small fish can't make big waves, so don't care." Yuwen Qingwu waved his hand.

"Yes, Bai Right retired." After saying that, he hid in some unknown corner.

Yuwen Qingwu took out a piece of paper, looked at the black-robed silver-haired and blue-eyed young man painted on it with fixed eyes, and let out a light chuckle, "Ye Ling, how are you qualified?" You are not eligible. ”
