The guard led Xia Wanqi and his party through several streets and stopped in front of a wide plaza platform.

Storm Plaza. Xia Wanqi looked at the signs on the edge of the square, looking at the clouds, the square is square, the length and width are nearly 1,000 zhang, such a huge square, it is very likely that it was built to gather troops, here, at least 200,000 troops can be easily accommodated.

"Messengers, please wait here while I go and inform the elders. After speaking, the guard walked to the teleportation array on the side.

Around the square, patrols pass by from time to time, and there is a tense atmosphere in the air.

"I always feel like I'm in a state of war, and the atmosphere is very oppressive. Beside Xia Wanqi, an elder whispered.

Xia Wanqi nodded, indicating that she agreed with his point of view.

"It may be that there is going to be a war with the Alliance. Another elder said.

"Shhhh Xia Wanqi glared at the two.

About a pillar of incense time later, the light on the teleportation array flashed, and a woman in white walked out of it, her gaze swept towards the mission, and fell on Xia Wanqi, who was in the lead.

Walk up.

"I'm really sorry to keep you waiting for a long time, my name is Wang Ling, one of the elders of the Fengshen Sect, please come with me. ”

"Elder Wang is too polite. Xia Wanqi hurriedly saluted, she had already probed this person's cultivation, much higher than herself, and she didn't dare to slack off.

Wang Ling has been leading everyone to an attic near the foot of Fengshen Mountain, please take a seat, and immediately a maid will serve freshly brewed tea.

Xia Wanqi stood up, respectfully presented the Star Map Jade Slip and the storage bag, and said, "Elder Wang, this is the first visit of our sect, please smile at a little courtesy." Wang Ling took the item, and after a little exploration, she looked at everyone with doubts in her eyes.

"Sect Master Xia, as far as I know, I haven't had much contact with your sect in Stormwind City, why did you do this today?" Xia Wanqi secretly observed Wang Ling's expression, and after seeing that she was still calm after seeing the items in the storage bag, she smiled bitterly in her heart, and when she heard Wang Ling's question, she hurriedly said: "I am entrusted by someone to inquire about an old person, and if it is convenient, I will take her back by the way." ”

"Oh?" Wang Ling was even more puzzled,

"Dare to ask what is the name of this old man you said? But I am a disciple of the Divine Sect?"

"Elder Hui Wang, I only know that this person's name is Liu Yue. ”

"Who?" Wang Ling was startled, stood up from her seat, and her tone suddenly became cautious,

"Which Liu Yue?" Xia Wanqi was stunned for a moment, the other party's reaction was beyond her expectations, and she said: "Dare to ask Elder Wang, is there still a lot of Liu Yue in Stormwind City?" Xia Wanqi's original intention was just to express the doubts in her heart, but when these words came out, they reached Wang Ling's ears, and the meaning was not so simple.

Wang Ling stared at Xia Wanqi, her face changed several times, her eyes swept over everyone like electricity, and the atmosphere in the hall was suddenly a little tense.

After a few breaths, her face softened slightly, and she said, "I don't think you guys are here to make trouble with the Divine Sect, and I don't want to embarrass you, so leave quickly." ”

"Elder Wang, we have come with a generous gift, and we only have such a small request, and please be accommodating. One of the elders got up and said, and when he spoke, he deliberately gave a generous gift

The word "thick" is a little heavier. It happened suddenly, Xia Wanqi secretly said that it was not good, she wanted to stop it, but it was too late.

"Huh. Wang Ling chuckled, raised her eyebrows, and said lightly: "Since you insist, then please wait here." After speaking, he walked out of the hall quickly, and when he went out, he did not forget to tell the maid to refill the tea for the guests.

A maid came forward with a teapot, refilled the tea, and was about to retreat when she suddenly raised her head, glanced at Xia Wanqi, hesitated slightly, and whispered, "You better go quickly." ”

"What?" Xia Wanqi was shocked, she was already nervous in her heart, and she was even more frightened when the maid said this.

"That name, in Stormwind, is very taboo, and no one has dared to mention it for decades. After the maid finished speaking, she glanced at Xia Wanqi again and left in a hurry.

"Huh?" Xia Wanqi looked at the back of the maid, she could clearly see a trace of worry and panic in the maid's eyes just now.

Xia Wanqi didn't know much about Liu Yue, and she didn't know the ins and outs of the matter, she originally thought that she was just an ordinary criminal, how could she cause such a taboo in Stormwind City, and besides, she still came with a big gift.

"Sect Master, what should I do?" someone worried.

"Wait and see what happens, and then we must deal with it carefully, don't talk nonsense, this matter is not simple, we need to think long-term, and we must not be reckless. Xia Wanqi said quickly, at the critical moment, she was still able to calm herself down.

Half an hour passed, just when Xia Wanqi and the others were waiting a little anxiously, suddenly, the temperature in the hall dropped sharply, and after an instant, even the air almost condensed into ice.

Everyone got up in shock, but they found that the spiritual power of the whole body was suppressed, and even the movement of getting up was quite difficult.

"What a powerful ice technique!" Xia Wanqi exclaimed, at this time, several guards and maids in the hall had already knelt down and shouted in unison: "Welcome to Her Majesty." After their words fell, the air in the center of the hall made a cracking sound, and two women walked out of it, one of them was Wang Ling, who had just met, and the other was very faced.

This person was wearing a long red dress and a gorgeous cyan cloak, with an indifferent face, she stood there, not angry and arrogant.

This person is none other than Qing Ling, the queen of Stormwind City, and the sect master of the Divine Sect.

"Sect Master, that's them. Wang Ling looked at Xia Wanqi and the others, and said respectfully to the Qingling beside her.

"Xia Wanqi of the Cloud Mist Sect, bring all the elders and disciples to meet the sect master and Her Majesty the Queen. Xia Wanqi hurriedly saluted, her cheeks were a little hot because of nervousness.

is also the sect master, compared to the two, it is simply a heaven and an underground.

"Are you looking for Liu Yue?" Qing Ling glanced at a few people and said calmly. Her words fell, and the hall fell into a brief silence, and on the side of the Cloud Mist Sect, no one dared to answer head-on for a while.

Xia Wanqi took a deep breath and forcibly suppressed the uneasiness in her heart, and then said stubbornly: "Back to Her Majesty, I am entrusted by a friend, and I came to your country this time, mainly to give gifts and express my respect for your country and you. ”

"Entrusted by a friend, what friend?" Qingling's gaze fell on Xia Wanqi, and this unconscious action actually overwhelmed the latter.

The monks of the Holy Period were so terrifying.

"Yes—it's Han Bing. With Xia Wanqi's cultivation, she couldn't resist such coercion at all, so she had to answer truthfully.

As soon as her words fell, she clearly felt that Qingling's face had become gloomy.

"Queen, it's exactly what you guessed. Wang Ling on the side stiffened and looked at Qingling nervously.

"I'm sorry, Sect Master Xia, you and your subordinates should stay here for the next period of time, you can send a messenger back, ask your friend to come and see me in person, and when he comes, you can go back." Qingling's voice was flat and without any emotion.

"This-" Xia Wanqi was shocked,

"Does the queen want to keep us as hostages and force Han Bing to come?" Xia Wanqi was a little angry, no matter how powerful the other party was, she didn't like to be bullied and fiddled with like now.

"You only have three months, and if your friends don't dare to come within three months, don't blame me. Qing Ling didn't pay any attention to Xia Wanqi's anger, and she didn't bother to deal with a junior in the soul stage, and still said calmly,

"By the way, you can let someone tell him that the person he is looking for is still alive. With that, she ignored the crowd and disappeared into the hall in a flash.

In the moment after she disappeared, everyone in the hall felt lighter, the pressure around her completely dissipated, and the temperature began to rise slowly.

Wang Ling took a few steps forward, glanced at Xia Wanqi, and said with some regret: "I have long advised you to leave early." ”

"Elder Wang, you know, we really don't have any ill intentions. Why are you being treated like this?" Xia Wanqi said.

"Hehe, it is precisely because I know that you have no malice that Her Majesty has asked me to treat you well, and it is good that you have committed the taboo of Stormwind and have not been executed or imprisoned in the depths. As he spoke, there was a rush of footsteps outside the hall, and soon the entire attic was surrounded.

"Jade Jane, the queen has accepted these spirit stones, and returned them to you. Wang Ling said, gently placing the storage bag on the table.

"Isn't there room for relaxation?" Xia Wanqi was unwilling.

"As long as Han Bing can come, you will be fine, the queen is only targeting Han Bing. Wang Ling sighed lightly and continued: "Actually, I understand that the queen doesn't want to make such a move, and her grudge with that person can't be explained in a sentence or two. Alas!" Xia Wanqi opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but the words came to her mouth but swallowed back.

"Hurry up and decide who will go back to report the news, you don't have much time, in Stormwind, the Queen's orders, no one dares to disobey. The result of resistance can only be broken bones. Wang Ling said.

"Sect Master, I'll go. An elder said. Xia Wanqi was stunned for a moment, looked back at everyone blankly, and nodded helplessly for a while.

It's not that she doesn't want to protect Han Bing, it's that she doesn't have this ability at all. In this kind of situation, she couldn't risk the future of the entire sect.

A smile appeared at the corner of Wang Ling's mouth, and she said with a smile: "Come with me, in order to save time, I will take you to the teleportation array, this time you don't have to go to sea by boat." After Wang Ling and the elder left, the door to the hall was shut, and the entire hall fell into a deathly silence, and no one spoke.

Xia Wanqi's mood was even worse. In the evening, Wang Ling came to the meeting hall of the Fengshen Tower, and Qingling was sitting on the main seat.

"Report to the queen that the matter has been completed, the messenger has been sent to Dongshengguo through the portal, and the relevant matters have been explained by the subordinates. Wang Ling stepped forward and said respectfully.

"Okay!" Qing Ling's eyes shone brightly,

"God help me this time. ”

"Do you think, Queen, that he will really come to the appointment?"

"I think so. ”

"What if, my subordinates are saying, if he doesn't come, do you really want to execute those messengers?" Wang Ling asked.

With a snap, Qing Ling slapped her palm on the table, the marble table top shattered, splashing smoke and dust in the sky, and said sharply: "If he really doesn't come, he will definitely kill those messengers, as long as Liu Yue stays here, I believe that one day he will come." ”

"Yes! Wang Ling knelt down, although she was carried by Qingling herself, she had been deeply trusted for so many years, and she could even occasionally put on some intimate feelings, but once Qingling got angry, she would inevitably tremble.

A few days later, the Cloud Mist Sect, Heavenly Dao Peak. Han Bing's face was gloomy, and in front of him, there stood an elder who came back to report the news.

"I was careless, I shouldn't have let them go. Because of my wrong decision, the Sect Master of Trapping Xia, as well as the elders, are unjust. Han Bing sighed.

"Elder Han, you don't have to blame yourself, we are willing to go over, it's just that the strength of Stormwind City is far beyond our expectations, Elder Han still has to think carefully. ”

"I see, thank you Elder Chen for reminding me. Han Bing said. Elder Chen sighed lightly, clenched his fists, and turned to exit the room.

In the next few days, Han Bing kept himself locked in the secret room, Qingling grabbed his weakness, if he didn't go to the appointment, then Xia Wanqi and the others would definitely die, and maybe Liu Yue would be affected.

However, if you really go to the appointment, a battle to the death is inevitable, and there is basically no possibility of escape.
