Volume 1 Chapter 312 An Edict from Star City
After the Sky Shifting Star Array launched a time reversal, the Blazing Frost Throne led the remnants of the 17th Army of the Northern Army of the Dragon King Empire to retreat to the territory of the Dragon King Empire.
However, the entire Hongyi City defense line did not let go of his heart, Hongyi City's garrison of Changhe Pass was increasingly strengthened, and until after this battle, several legions arrived at Changhe Pass to cooperate with the border troops to consolidate the Changhe Pass defense line.
In this battle, everyone saw the power that the Dragon King Empire had been hiding, and many people also realized that this was a chasm that the Star Emperor Kingdom could not fill with the lives of phantom-level monks. In addition, Li Xinda, the person in charge of Hongyi City and the city lord of Hongyi City, died in battle, and Li Siyu, the deputy commander of the Tianyuan Army, temporarily took over the command of the Hongyi City defense line, and the entire Hongyi City defense line was panicked.
Of course, after the war, there were still many people—especially those soldiers who were supposed to die under the pillar of light in the Battle of Changhe Pass—cheered for the miracle performed by the Sky Shifting Star Array, and faintly, the voice of the Emperor Xingheng of the Star Emperor Kingdom among the people increased a lot.
And although the Battle of Changhe Pass did not win the Star Empire in general, the fiasco of the Battle of Changhe Pass seemed to sound the alarm in the hearts of all the people of the Star Emperor State, and more and more people understood the reason for Xingheng to promulgate the wartime regulations, and more and more people began to support this wartime regulations that would last for a full forty years.
As for Ren Tianxiang and their team, they had withdrawn to Hongyi City with the 32nd Army of the Dragon Regiment for rest and recuperation two days ago, and there was no order from the military headquarters, even Chief Yancheng Lin didn't know what to do next at this time, so he could only continue to stay in Hongyi City and wait for orders.
Since the end of the battle of Changhe Pass, Ren Tianxiang's team leader Xuanyuan Liuli's mood has been very low, but this is all nonsense, his father died in front of him, it is impossible to say that he is not sad.
Although Xuanyuan Liuli has not said what is on her mind until now, everyone in the team knows what kind of torment she is enduring in her heart now.
The conversation in the squad seems to have returned to the evils of war. But there was nothing they could do, after all, the wars of this era were rarely initiated by the Star Empire, and the garrison troops on the border of the Star Empire rarely took the lead in launching an attack on the Dragon King Empire.
The Dragon King Empire is for invasion, while the Star Empire is for survival, this is the most essential difference between the two empires, and the initiators of wars are often regarded as the evil side.
However, perhaps many Star Emperor people have forgotten that in the Middle Dragon Era, the Star Emperor Kingdom also relied on crazy aggression to almost unify the entire continent.
This morning, Ren Tianxiang accompanied Xing Lingluo on the streets of Hongyi City, looking at Xing Lingluo's little face that was darkened because he was worried about Xuanyuan Liuli, he also seemed to be affected by Xing Lingluo, and his heart was also a little gloomy.
The relationship between Xing Lingluo and Xuanyuan Liuli has reached the level of being like sisters, seeing that Xuanyuan Liuli is sad because of Xuanyuan Hao's matter, Xing Lingluo is sad because he can't help Xuanyuan Liuli.
As for the matter of time reversal, Xinglingluo didn't know much, she just knew that her mother had the ability to turn back time to achieve the effect of resurrection, and this large-scale time reversal was probably performed by Her Royal Highness the Queen through the Sky Shifting Star Array.
This time, Empress Xiao Ruoyu connected to the Sky Shifting Star Array to launch a large-scale time reversal in Changhe Pass, which was the first case, and it was a matter that no one had ever heard before, and no one would judge anything. is also because of this, there are still many people who are even imagining, in fact, Li Xinda and Xuanyuan Hao did not sacrifice at all, they just couldn't show up for some reasons for the time being.
For these claims...... At least Xuanyuan Liuli herself didn't believe it very much, her father was swallowed by the pillar of light in front of her eyes, but after the time reversal began, the pillar of light did not immediately retreat to the position where Li Xinda and Xuanyuan Hao were sacrificed, which had largely cut off the chance of resurrection for the two.
Moreover...... If they were resurrected, where would they go, and why didn't they come back?
For these, the team members have been discussing for the past few days, but in fact, with what they can know, they can't guess anything, which will only make Xuanyuan Liuli even more sad.
And Ren Tianxiang was thinking about another thing in his heart - a few days ago, he pushed Xing Lingluo and Ren Tianqing down the city tower on the tower of Changhe Pass, and said to Xing Lingluo that he had forgotten himself. According to Xing Lingluo's temperament, he will inevitably come to him to settle accounts, but ...... But until now, Xinglingluo has not made any statement about this matter, and even the relationship between the two has heated up in the past few days.
Thinking of this, Ren Tianxiang couldn't help but sigh. It's not easy for everyone, but war is like that, and no one can do anything about it.
"You kid, what are you sighing for no reason?"
A familiar voice sounded beside Ren Tianxiang, he turned around suddenly, and sure enough, he saw the owner of this voice, Ren Tianxiang's second master on Sage Mountain.
"Second Master, why are you here?" Ren Tianxiang exclaimed in surprise.
Although he and Mo Rushi have not been separated for a long time, they have only been seen for three or four months since they participated in the selection of the Dragon Troupe.
But there have been too many things that have happened in the past three months, which makes Ren Tianxiang have a feeling of three autumns in one day, so now that he sees Mo Rushi again, he has a feeling that he has not seen him for a long time.
"I'm here......" Mo Rushi rarely restrained her smile, and her expression became serious, "The master already knows the news of Haozi's sacrifice, but the Xuanyuan Hall can't be without a leader, and the master went to the Dragon King Empire to investigate the truth of Haozi's sacrifice, and Xuanyuan Hall really has no choice, so I can only temporarily serve as the master of Xuanyuan Palace."
Secondly...... I have received an edict from the emperor to come here to announce it. I know you're here, so I'll take a look at you first. ”
"Xuanyuan Hall is going to be handed over to the Second Master?" a confused expression appeared on Ren Tianxiang's face, "Didn't the Second Master hide on the Sage Mountain because he was too powerful to avoid being rejected by the world......? What's wrong?"
Regarding Mo Rushi's departure from Shengxian Mountain, Ren Tianxiang was still very worried. As he said, Mo Rushi hid on the Sage Mountain in order to avoid being rejected by the world, and after this came out, he would inevitably be targeted by the world, and God knows when he would be excluded.
Mo Rushi is a powerful phantom-level cultivator in the Star Emperor Kingdom, if he is excluded, it will be a very heavy loss for the Star Emperor Kingdom!
"What could go wrong?" Mo Rushi smiled and said indifferently, "Didn't I tell you? I'm not like the group of people in Sage Mountain who stayed in Sage Mountain because their cultivation was too high and was restricted by the world, I went there to seek a more profound avenue."
After all, there are a lot of super monks there who have raised one foot, and I can ask them at any time, so I have been staying at Sage Mountain. Moreover, my own ability to 'deny' has long denied the world's rejection of me, and where do I need to pay attention to the world's attention to me. ”
After Mo Rushi mentioned this, Ren Tianxiang suddenly realized.
In the past, he had always thought that his second master had hid in the Sage Mountain because he was rejected by the world after lifting his feet, and with the protection of the Sage Mountain Guardian Array, he could comprehend the more profound avenue with peace of mind.
Unexpectedly, Mo Rushi actually stayed in Shengxian Mountain for nearly a hundred years and did not re-enter the WTO in order to seek the way, it seems to be a very difficult thing to think about carefully, and those old antiques...... Ahem, those powerful monks have been together for so long, it really hurts him. You must know that Ren Tianxiang had only stayed on Sage Mountain for half a year at that time, and there were not many opportunities to meet those monks, so he couldn't stand those senior powers.
How to put it, it may be that he is too obsessed with the pursuit of the Dao, and has a deep understanding of the Dao, so there may be some ...... Well, eccentric character.
"Okay, I won't talk to you more, I have to go to Li Siyu, I still have the edict from the emperor to be announced. Mo Rushi said, and then made a gesture to leave, "By the way, Tianxiang, you have a chance to go back to Sage Mountain recently, the master and I have something for you to leave there, you go and pick it up, it should help you in your future cultivation." ”
"Yes, Second Master. ”
Mo Rushi nodded, turned around and drifted away.
The star spirit fell to the side, and he didn't even dare to gasp when he saw it. This is the second time she has seen Mo Rushi herself, and the last time she saw Mo Rushi in the small courtyard of Star City, she didn't even say a word.
She had learned about Mo Rushi's deeds from the mouths of various people, and she knew how powerful this phantom-level monk was and how glorious his deeds were—I was afraid that Ren Tianxiang didn't know as much about these things as she did.
However, the more important reason why she didn't even dare to say anything was what Mo Rushi said, he came to take over the position of the lord of Xuanyuan Hall and announce the imperial court's plan for dealing with Hongyi City. That's what it means...... The imperial court, or His Majesty the Emperor, has confirmed that the city lord Li Xinda and the Xuanyuan Hao hall lord have been sacrificed......
And at this moment, Mo Rushi's voice resounded throughout the defense line of Hongyi City.
"The Emperor of the Star Emperor Heng announced to the world, saying:
Now, due to the treason of Li Xinda and Xuanyuan Hao in Changheguan, Li Xinda was dismissed from several positions such as the city lord of Hongyi City and the commander of the army assassination army, and his family was stripped of the hereditary marquis title and the fief was recovered. The emperor remembered that the Li family had bowed to the essence of the empire for generations, changed the hereditary marquis title of the Li family to a hereditary earl, and His Majesty personally ordered Li Siming, the descendant of the Li family, to be the next head of the Li family, and gave the Star City Mansion.
From now on, the 17th Army of the Southern Demon Guide Cavalry of the Star Emperor Kingdom will temporarily take over the defense of Hongyi City, and all members of the Tianyuan Army will be supervised by the special supervision envoy of the military department to go to Nanhuang Town for inspection. Li Siyu, the deputy commander of the Tianyuan Army, cooperated with the Criminal and Prison Department of the Ministry of Justice of the Imperial Court to investigate Li Xinda's treason, and went to Star City to stand by.
Chin this. ”
After listening to Mo Rushi's reading, Ren Tianxiang's thoughts turned quickly, and at this moment, there was a faint feeling of unease in his mind.
Turning to look in the direction of Star City, the uneasiness in Ren Tianxiang's heart became more and more serious, for some reason he always felt that there was a big net slowly closing in the empire......
