For Zhou Xiao's thunderous methods, Zhao Zilong and others are no longer surprised.

They suddenly found that they were becoming more and more incomprehensible to Zhou Xiao.

Enveloped.

"How strong is the lord?" Zhao Zilong guessed in his heart.

After a while, Zhao Zilong said: "The Divine Sword Sect has set its sights on this dragon vein, lord, what should we do next?"

Zhou Xiao fell into deep thought.

The Divine Sword Sect is indeed a tricky existence.

If they want to grab it hard, with Da Zhou's current strength, they really can't compete with it.

Behind the Divine Sword Sect is the Shenyan Dynasty, and I am afraid that the Shenyan Dynasty is also extremely coveted by the Dragon Vein.

The coming period of time will not be peaceful.

Great Qin was also a threat to Great Zhou.

Because of the dragon vein, Da Zhou seems to be in danger......

"Send additional troops to garrison, I will leave the Qilin Venerable here to guard, and whoever gets involved will be killed!" Zhou Xiao said majestically.

With a little arrangement,

Zhou Xiao left the Qilin Venerable and set off back to the palace, and Nezha guarded the left and right to ensure Zhou Xiao's safety.

It was already night back at the palace.

In the two days that Zhou Xiao was away, Zhuge Liang took care of the government in an orderly manner.

Everything is in order.

Knowing that Zhou Xiao had returned to the palace, Zhuge Liang immediately came to visit him and reported the situation of the Great Zhou Dynasty in the past two days to Zhou Xiao.

"Your Majesty, there are two things that Your Majesty needs to decide. Zhuge Liang said.

"What's the matter?" Zhou smiled, "If it's not a big deal, the prime minister has the right to make a decision." ”

Since Zhuge Liang has been allowed to take care of the government, it is necessary to fully delegate power.

Zhou Xiao believes in Zhuge Liang's ability.

"Yesterday, the envoys of the Southern Barbarian Kingdom came to ask for help. Zhuge Liang said, "The Southern Barbarian Kingdom has been frequently attacked by demon beasts recently, and the people are struggling to make a living, and its country's military strength is insufficient to resist the invasion of demon beasts. ”

The Southern Barbarian Kingdom is located in the southern part of the Great Zhou and borders the Great Zhou.

It is a small vassal state of the Great Zhou.

Close to the 100,000 mountains.

The 100,000 mountains are originally a land of poor mountains and rivers, and demon beasts haunt for a long time, so the Southern Barbarian Kingdom has always been plagued by demon beasts.

After the fall of the Great Zhou, the Southern Barbarians did not abandon the Great Zhou, but provided help within their ability in the most difficult time of the Great Zhou.

It is one of the few friendly countries in the Great Week.

"Send an army of 100,000 to the Southern Barbarian Kingdom to exterminate the demon beasts. "The Southern Barbarians are in trouble, so they naturally have to help.

Zhuge Liang can make a decision on this matter, but he can't call the army.

Therefore, Zhou Xiao needs to make a personal decision.

"What about the other thing?" Zhou Xiao asked.

Zhuge Liang's expression became solemn, "Recently, the disciples of the Imperial Capital Divine Sword Sect have been frequently haunting, and they have stirred up trouble in the Imperial Capital, and they are domineering. ”

"Divine Sword Sect?" Zhou Xiao was a little surprised when he heard these three words again, "What are they doing in the imperial capital?"

"It seems to be for the Shadow Girl. Zhuge Liang handed a reward order to Zhou Xiao.

There is a picture of a shadow on it,

and offered a reward of 100,000 taels of gold.

"Did they find the shadow in the palace?" Zhou Xiao asked.

Zhuge Liang shook his head, "No." But they ordered my Great Zhou royal family to cooperate in finding the Shadow Girl and threatened the Divine Sword Sect. ”

"Oh?" Zhou Xiao's face was slightly cold.

Sure enough, wherever I went, the face of the Divine Sword Sect was the same.

"Ignore them. Zhou Xiao pondered, "If you dare to threaten the Great Zhou royal family again, then teach them a lesson." ”

Zhou Xiao didn't want to deal with these small roles for the time being.

After Zhuge Liang retreated, Zhou Xiao came to the residence of the painting shadow.

The little demon fox demon has recovered, and when she saw Zhou Xiao coming, the second daughter immediately stepped forward to salute.

"Flat. Zhou smiled.

"I heard that His Majesty is back, and I was about to go to see him, but I didn't want His Majesty to come. Shadow said.

Zhou Xiao looked at the picture and said, "Do you have something to say about me?"

Shadow nodded, "Recently, thanks to His Majesty's care and care, Shadow and the demon are grateful. ”

"The grace of saving lives will be repaid by springs in the future. ”

"Why do you say this all of a sudden?" Zhou Xiao felt that the painting was a little abnormal.

"The demon and I are going to leave the palace. Shadow said.

"Leave?" Zhou Xiao was a little surprised, "Now the people of the Divine Sword Sect are looking for you all over the world, you go out now, and they find that it is more than lucky." ”

"The whereabouts of me and the demon have been revealed, and sooner or later they will find out about the two of us." We will only cause trouble to Your Majesty if we stay. The Divine Sword Sect is not something that Great Zhou can compete with......"

At this time, Huaying was still thinking about not causing trouble to Da Zhou.

Sure enough, it's not an ordinary woman.

Zhou smiled for a while and said, "Now the palace is the safest place. They won't notice you and the demon for a while. ”

"However, the Divine Sword Sect is only for the sake of a secret sect?" Zhou Xiao asked the question in his heart.

Huaying hesitated slightly: "The secret sect is just the fuse. They caught me and wanted to know more about my secrets......"

"Secret?" Zhou Xiao looked at the picture.

The shadow nodded, and the jade hand stretched out.

Suddenly, a bead burning with golden flames appeared in his palm.

The moment the bead appeared,

The temperature of the air suddenly rises, and I know that it is a little hot.

"What is this?" Zhou Xiao asked.

"My natal star soul," said the shadow, "Your Majesty has heard of the Star Soul Master, right?"

"Star Soul Master?" Zhou Xiao shook his head.

He hadn't heard of it.

"Star Soul Master is one of the oldest professions in the Kyushu Continent, born in ancient times. My family is the Star Soul Master family, which lasts for thousands of years, but it's a pity that ......"

The painting shadow seemed to think of the pain of the destruction of the race, and his expression darkened, "In the Divine Sword Sect, I accidentally exposed my identity as a star soul master, and they saw my natal star soul ......"

"So they're hunting you because of your natal star soul?" Zhou Xiao was even more puzzled, "What's in it for them?"

"Star Soul Master is a very rare and powerful profession to this day. ”

"The Natal Star Soul Master is even more unique. ”

"I don't know when people began to find that hunting the Star Soul Master to capture the Star Soul Refining and Absorption can allow them to have the special abilities granted by the Star Soul. Since then, the Star Soul Master has been the target of hunting......"

"The Star Soul Master withered for a while, and my clan began to live in seclusion in the mountains, escaping hunting. ”

Hearing this, Zhou Xiao already had a clue, "I see." ”

The shadow continued: "Divine Sword Sect Master Wan Jianxiong wants to seize my natal star soul for his use, so there is the current big pursuit. ”

Knowing the hidden meaning behind it, Zhou Xiao's doubts were finally solved.

Otherwise, because of the perseverance of a secret sect before, some of them are unreasonable.

"If you tell me this, aren't you afraid that I'll worry about your natal star soul?" Zhou Xiao asked.

"Your Majesty has a life-saving grace for me, so why should this life be given to Your Majesty?" said the shadow.

Zhou Xiao didn't expect the painting to trust him so much.

"Don't worry about staying in the palace," Zhou said with a smile, "If the Divine Sword Sect finds it, I have my own plans." ”

"It's too dangerous for you to get out now. ”

The painting wanted to say something, but Zhou smiled: "It's decided." ”

As soon as the words fell, Zhou Xiao suddenly thought of the matter of building a sect academy on the dragon vein, looked at the painting shadow and asked, "If I need to cultivate a group of Star Soul Masters, are you willing to teach the cultivation methods of Star Soul Masters?"

Drawing Shadow said: "Naturally willing." ”

"That's good," Zhou Xiao looked at the painting, "For the sake of Da Zhou's future, I also want to protect you." ”
