The Black Empire is a barren land, with a harsh and unpredictable climate, often without harvest in many areas throughout the year, and ironically, the poorest country has the largest population.

And all this forced the Black Empire to start a war, unilaterally to wage war against the Eternal Empire naturally can't do it, the Black Domain Empire can't afford the wrath of the Eternal Empire, so the Black Domain Empire pointed the spearhead of the war at the "friendly" Wanmos Empire.

While looting materials to survive, it consumes a huge population base to alleviate irreconcilable contradictions in the country. Similarly, because of the land and climate of the Black Domain Empire, the economic strength and manpower of Wan Mos are not enough to support the entire Black Domain Empire. Rather than losing both sides and letting the Eternal Empire take advantage, it is better to maintain this subtle connection, which is why Zheng Xianyue, the lord of Mingyue County, led his troops to besiege the royal city of the Black Domain Empire, but only forced him to sign a treaty under the city, and did not invade it.

Wu Ming read some records about the celebrities of the three empires, and inadvertently caught a glimpse of the Mingyue County Lord, and couldn't help but secretly speak, it was really difficult to combine the characters in the book who were like the goddess of war with the Mingyue County Lord he knew in his impression. Although Zheng Xianyue has leadership, in the face of the bull-headed beast's fists and Bai Zongqi's betrayal, he still has the panic and helplessness of a normal daughter's family, and unconsciously, Wu Ming has a little interest and curiosity in this Mingyue County Lord.

"Tuk, tuk, tuk. ”

A knock on the door interrupted Wu Ming's thoughts.

"Come in. ”

A maid walked in timidly, looking a little scared of Wu Ming, bowed and said, "My lord, King Karl intends to invite you to enjoy the beautiful moonlight at Qianqiu Lake, and let the slave and maid come and convey it." ”

"King Karl, invite me?" Wu Ming was stunned for a moment, "He knows me?" But then he was relieved, as a king, if he wanted to know the people or things around Lord Mingyue, it might be simpler, "I know, go down." ”

Wu Ming was entangled, a prince invited him, and it seemed that it would be too faceless not to go. If you go, could it be that King Karl will attack him because of the relationship between the county lord of Mingyue? Immediately after Wu Ming vetoed it, a dignified prince wants to deal with himself, why bother beating around the bush like this.

After thinking about it, Wu Ming still decided to go, he maintained a normal state of "defense mode", the core power was full of his body, even if King Carl really wanted to make a move, he also had full self-protection ability, although he couldn't win, but it was absolutely impossible to lose.

Qianqiu Lake, bright moonlight.

The lake water is clear, the reflected moonlight and the moonlight in the air are intertwined into a glow, a long bridge that is completely carved from white jade extends from the shore to the center of the lake, there is a pavilion in the center of the lake, there is a couplet carved by gold characters on the beams and pillars on both sides of the pavilion, the upper link is "sigh for the thousand autumn years but the remaining recklessness", the lower link is "watching the mountains and rivers of the four seasons and the dove dove".

The font is strong and strong, the glyph is domineering, but there is no trace of tactful tenderness in the charm. There is a horizontal plaque hanging on the pavilion, which reads the name of this pavilion - Four Seasons Pavilion. Endless lotus flowers swaying around the pavilion, and from time to time a gust of wind blows, wafting a faint fragrance, as if to pour out the thoughts of the people who built this pavilion to the distant people.

"What a beautiful view," Wu Ming sighed secretly, "I don't know who had such a vision to set up this pavilion here." However, when Wu Ming stepped on the jade bridge with one foot, Wu Ming felt as if he had been electrocuted, and a bad premonition permeated his heart.

On the bridge, two white-clothed maids with white veils on their faces walked slowly, their bodies were light, although they couldn't see their faces clearly, but from their seductive figures, fair skin and dignified manners, it could be seen that this pair of fairy-like maids definitely came from an extraordinary family.

The two maids bowed slightly: "My family has been waiting for you for a long time, Master Wu Ming, please come with me." ”

Although they were very friendly to him, Wu Ming could feel that this friendliness was only because he was the "guest" of the adult. No matter how much they hide, it is difficult to hide that trace of contempt, and they have received many guests, from the royal family and nobles, to the civil and military officials, who is not a big man who can cover the sky with his hand and stomp his feet, and it is the first time to introduce an unknown hairy boy like this. Even if it's a sword master, even the name was unknown before, so he must not be a powerful character.

Wu Ming followed the two maids towards the Four Seasons Pavilion in the center of the lake, and from a distance, Wu Ming could see a man in a black silk robe in the pavilion, looking at the distant scenery with his back to him.

That was probably King Karl, but Wu Ming found that he was obviously advancing, but it seemed to be getting farther and farther away from the pavilion, and the figure of King Karl in his eyes was becoming more and more blurred, and a thick fog gradually spread around him, completely covering the only vague figure of King Karl in the distance.

"What the hell is going on?" Wu Ming asked.

The two maids who led the way in front did not answer, and walked on their own, as if they had not heard Wu Ming's words at all, Wu Ming wanted to catch up, but the distance not only did not shrink, but also narrowed away, and after a while, the two maids disappeared into the thick fog.

"Is it really a game?" Wu Ming frowned, "Probably because I overestimated this King Karl, I wouldn't have come if I knew it." ”

Just when Wu Ming lamented his misfortune, a piercing moonlight poured down from the sky, and the dense fog everywhere it passed seemed to be a person's consciousness, separating by itself, not blocking the moonlight in the slightest.

Sensing the danger coming, Wu Ming looked up and saw that a trace of sword light faintly appeared in the moonlight, and Wu Ming couldn't help but suffocate.

"It's beautiful!" Wu Ming couldn't help but admire.

Subconsciously stretched out his hand directly and grabbed the moonlight, and the moonlight really stayed in Wu Ming's hand as if it was substance, the halo dissipated, and a demonic cold sword appeared in its original form. Wu Ming was stunned for a moment, how could a good light turn into a sword, "Is this a special effect......

Han Jian was holding a slender hand at the hilt, and the owner of the small hand was one of the maids who brought Wu Ming in, although she was still masked at the moment, Wu Ming could clearly feel her shame.

Wu Ming couldn't help but be angry: "It's obvious that you are bullying me, why do you act like I bullied you." ”

As soon as the words fell, "Whoosh!" With a bang, another sharp sword broke through the dense fog and launched an attack on Wu Ming at a close distance.

Wu Ming found that it was too late to dodge, and hurriedly guided the "moonlight" to hit the sneak attack sword, and the sword was quickly opened, and the maid saw that the sword was not effective, and wanted to collect the sword, but when the sword was too fast, it was too close to Wu Ming, and the maid who fell from the air both crashed into Wu Ming's arms.
