Chapter 64: The King of the Dead Country
Huan Wu was speechless for a while, forced down his anger, and changed a smile on his face.
"Sure enough, as Zong Shi expected, Yang Xian'er is nothing more than that."
The short silence didn't stir up many waves, after all, the water was Huan Wusa. None of the staff and generals present were so blind and uncomfortable.
Only Huan Jue, he noticed Huan Wu's abnormality, and when this meeting was over, he followed Huan Wu back to his residence.
"Father, what exactly is written in Yang Xian's reply?"
Huan Wu smiled and handed the return to Huan Jue.
Huan Jue opened it and took a look, the four words on it were impressively listed, and his brows couldn't help frowning.
Yang Xian's reply, not only did he not take Huan Wu in his eyes, but he simply did not take Huan Wu in his eyes.
"I'm not just worried about that. I wanted to take advantage of the fact that the war in Youzhou had just ended, and the princes everywhere were unprepared, so I raised a large army to attack Shu. But looking at Yang Xian's fearless appearance, he seems to have been prepared. ”
"Father means that Yang Xian had already expected that our army would use troops in the coming year, so he deliberately sent this reply to anger his father and disturb our army's heart?"
Huan Wu glanced at his eldest son with a hint of relief in his eyes.
"Jue'er, you are benevolent by nature, if you are in the prosperous world, you will be the master. But in this world of great controversy, there is no room for the kindness of women. You can see through Yang Xian's intentions, which is good. ”
"Now that Yang Xian has taken precautions, is the battle of Shu to be discussed again?"
Huan Wu shook his head, walked to the desk, took off the lampshade, and placed Yang Xian's return on the candle flame.
The flaming red fireworks were blazing, and as soon as Huan Wu's hand was released, the envelope fell to the ground.
"Yizhou has to fight sooner or later, and it's better to fight early than late."
Without reporting or making any sound, a figure quietly approached, half-kneeling in front of Huan Wu before the return on the ground burned out.
Taking a bamboo pipe from his hand, Huan Wu waved his hand and told him to retreat.
Huan Jue knew that Huan Wu had secretly established a mysterious intelligence organization internal guard. They were responsible for collecting information on the great clans, monks of various factions, and princes of various places.
Huan Wu took out a creed from the bamboo tube, unfolded it, and frowned.
"Father, what's wrong?"
This internal guard only obeyed Huan Wu's orders, but what they did did not shy away from Huan Xuan. Therefore, Huan Jue asked.
"There are abnormal movements on the side of the Liangzhou Demon Extreme Sect, and the internal guards I sent to listen to the information have died. Only this news came back. ”
"Demon Extreme Sect?"
Huan Wu is in charge of the world's great affairs, but he is not a righteous son of heaven after all. Over the past ten years, Huan Wu has changed from a small prince to a male lord who now holds seven states. What he had to guard against was not only the princes of various places, but also the families in his own territory and even the monks of various factions in the rivers and lakes.
Some small and medium-sized sects Huan Wushang can master, but they are nothing more than pulling one faction to fight another faction and bringing them under their command.
However, a sect like the Demon Pole Sect has many disciples, and the sect master is a great grandmaster-level alchemist. His every move is that Huan Wu has to pay attention to it. It can even be said that Huan Wu has nothing to do with these great masters. As long as they obey the Son of Heaven openly, the rest will not matter.
Liangzhou is the jurisdiction of Zhu Zi, and the Demon Pole Sect is a special existence there. The Demon Extreme Sect is neither embarrassed nor controlled by Zhu Zi, which is equivalent to a country within a country.
What is rare is that over the years, Zhu Zi and the Demon Pole Sect have been at peace with each other, and even sometimes, the Demon Pole Sect will send disciples to help the defenders of Liangzhou resist the beast tide outside the Yang Jue Pass.
"Great Grandmasters, it's always these Great Grandmasters!"
Huan Wu slammed his fist on the table, his words filled with anger.
At this moment, among the four main veins, the great masters of the one vein in the mountains are the most numerous, and the power is also the strongest, and the disciples are distributed in the mountains of the Central Plains.
Huan Wu crisscrossed the Central Plains, and the soldiers were mighty, so they did not surrender. But those great masters in the mountains ignored Huan Wu's love. Some didn't even give Huan Wu face at all, and burned the edict he canonized in front of the envoys he sent.
Fortunately, there are many branches in the mountains, one mountain and one master, and they can't be twisted into a rope, otherwise Huan Wu is afraid that he will not be able to dream and be unstable.
Yizhou, String City.
Dark clouds cover the moon, and the palace of the king of Shu is like a giant beast located in the string city.
The guards of the inner palace were heavily guarded, but a dark shadow was quietly shuttling through this tight guard.
The person who infiltrated the palace of the king of Shu did not know the route of the guards' patrol, but he was really like a shadow, and he could completely disappear into the darkness. Occasionally, he ran into the patrolling janissaries, but the janissaries couldn't spot him at all.
The door of the palace quietly opened, and the guards guarding the palace behind him were like wooden carvings, motionless.
The man stepped into the temple gate, and the attendant of the night watch noticed the anomaly and was about to shout.
The black shadow was like the wind, quietly passing over this inner servant. As if drained of his strength, the chamberlain fainted and fell to the ground.
From the palace gate to the couch of the King of Shu, a distance of dozens of zhang, the black shadow came half-breathing.
Xia Gong Ni was lying on the couch, holding her precious little golden bowl in her hand, sleeping soundly.
The black shadow exclaimed when he saw Xia Gong Nirvana.
"It's really good and beautiful!"
This person was just about to pick up Xia Gong Nirvana, but suddenly felt abnormal and hurriedly dodged.
The claws are like hooks, and they come in an instant, but they are empty. Jian Chang steadied his body, protected the couch of Xia Gong Ni, and looked at the person in front of him.
A middle-aged man, dressed in black, was caged in the dark, standing a foot away in front of Jian Chang's body.
"Something interesting? I didn't expect that there were such masters in this Shu Palace. ”
Jian Chang's claws were ruthless, but the man didn't avoid it, and pointed out, right in the palm of Jian Chang's palm.
As soon as he made contact, Jian Chang suddenly felt that the breath in his body was chaotic, and his mind was uneasy.
"The Art of Killing Love, are you from the Demon Extreme Sect?"
"Good eyesight."
The man struck two times in succession, and Jian Chang hurriedly dodged, but Xia Gong Nirvana behind him slept peacefully as usual, not affected at all.
"What are you going to do to the King?"
In the middle of the battle, Jian Chang asked. He thought that he was no match for the person in front of him, but he couldn't help it, there was such a big movement in this hall, but it was calm as usual outside the door. Obviously, the guards outside the temple have been controlled by this man.
Support is difficult, and Jian Chang can only hold on alone.
The man made a false move, dodged the blow of Jian Chang, and went straight to the couch Xia Gong Nirvana. Jian Chang was shocked, thinking that this person was going to kill Xia Gong Nirvana and was about to rescue, but he was hit hard by this person's palm, and his body retreated, and he was fixed on the bronze pillar in the hall, unable to move.
"With such good talent and beautiful quality, instead of being a king of a dead country here, it is better to return to my sect with me and follow my lineage."
With a loud laugh, the man picked up Xia Gongni on the bed and walked towards the outside of the hall, and the figure quickly disappeared into the night.
The sky was bright, and Huang Hao and his attendants were ready to call up as usual, but they found an abnormality in the palace.
"Jian Changshi, what's wrong with you? What about the king? ”
The face of the servant under the bronze pillar turned pale, and his body moved with difficulty.
"Go and ask the prime minister, the king has been taken captive."
