Chapter 772: Ready to go
April 21,.
The hall of the Soul Sect was solemn, and now Lan Chen sat in the first place, his brows were tightly locked, and he held his chin with one hand as if he was meditating, Xie Yun and Zheng Xiaowu, Yin Xi, and Han Xiao were sitting in the hall, and their faces were also full of solemnity. Hundreds of Soul Sect disciples from the Dragon King Mansion, the Spear King Mansion, and the Spirit King Mansion gathered around the hall, and everyone showed a very anxious look.
"It's here!"
The hall was silent all morning, and suddenly a loud news voice instantly broke the silence in the hall, Lan Chen, Xie Yun, Zheng Xiaowu, and Han Xiao stood up almost at the same time, while Yin Xi hurriedly stepped up to meet him, and collided with a Soul Sect disciple who ran into the main hall head-on.
"Hurry up!" Without waiting for the Soul Sect disciple to bow and salute, Yin Xi couldn't wait to reach out and snatch a secret letter sealed with wax oil from the disciple's hand, and then turned around and walked towards Lan Chen quickly.
"Read!"
Lan Chen's brows tightened, and he let out a low sigh. Yin Xi suddenly stopped, quickly tore open the secret letter, quickly flipped through it up and down with blazing eyes, and then read in an urn: "May 15th, Donghua Island in the Immortal Domain." Xie Yun, Zheng Xiaowu, and Yin Xi each led 300 disciples, Han Xiao asked the emperor for 30,000 soldiers, and Lan Chen sat in Xihuang Mountain. After Yin Xi finished speaking, he slowly looked up at Lan Chen, and said stupidly, "The one who signed the money is the son of the Jade Building, but the seal on it is the seal of the sect master." ”
"Sure enough, it's a game, I had long expected that Mu Dan and Yulou had been the sect master's best friends for many years, how could they suddenly turn back at this time. Lan Chen said in a condensed voice.
"Then everything will be according to the sect master's words, each of them will go back to prepare, and set off at noon. After hearing the letter, Xie Yun said bluntly, "This matter is a matter of life and death for the sect master, and no one is allowed to make a difference." The matter of asking for troops from the emperor is Lord Lao Han. ”
"Leave this matter to me, since it is Yifan who speaks, then I think His Majesty will not obstruct it. Han Xiao nodded and agreed, now Han Xiao looks more than ten years older than before, especially since Han Ling'er's whereabouts are unknown, Han Xiao's spirit is getting weaker and weaker day by day. Even so, Han Xiao Yu Wei is still there, he is Lu Yifan's father-in-law, and the whole Soul Sect respects him as always.
Xie Yun turned his head to look at Lan Chen, who was a little absent-minded, through Lan Chen's slightly lost eyes, of course Xie Yun could understand Lan Chen's thoughts, in fact, Lan Chen wanted to go to Donghua Island to wish Lu Yifan a hand, but the letter from the Jade Tower asked him to sit in Xihuang Mountain, how could this not make Lan Chen feel disappointed? Xie Yun said: "Lan Chen, Xihuang Mountain is where the foundation of the Soul Sect is, the reason why the sect master entrusts you with important responsibilities is because you are the only one among us who has the ability to preside over the overall situation, if you want us to go to the Immortal Realm without worries, then everything depends on you!" Saying that, Xie Yun also bowed his hand to Lan Chen quite respectfully, and Zheng Xiaowu and Yin Xi also bowed to Lan Chen together.
"Don't worry too much, you guys should be careful all the way on this trip, I will prepare a banquet in Xihuang Mountain and wait for you to return triumphantly!" Lan Chen smiled slightly and said in high spirits.
"Yingying and Fluttershy, they'll be left to you. Xie Yun said with a smile. After Xie Yun and Lan Chen exchanged cherishes, they took the lead in leaving the Soul Sect Hall, and Zheng Xiaowu, Han Xiao, and Yin Xi also left one after another, and the Soul Sect Hall, which was still full of people just now, became empty in an instant, and what they had been waiting for for several days was this letter from Yulou.
......
April 25, Beast Domain.
In the past few days, a sensational event has occurred in the Beast Domain, that is, the Beast Domain Leader Qiu Cheng suddenly died, and the Beast Domain government and the opposition are immersed in grief. Qiu Cheng had a young son Qiu Yuan, who was only seven years old, and Qiu Yuan was handed over to his favorite concubine Tang He and the first auxiliary minister Qiu Shaocang before he died. After Qiu Ling's death, Qiu Shaocang suddenly took out a letter in front of hundreds of officials who did not know whether it was true or false, and the edict said that after Qiu Ling's death, Qiu Yuan would inherit the throne of the emperor of the beast domain, and at the same time depose the queen, and entitle the favorite concubine Tang He as the Holy Mother of the beast domain, and Tang He was in charge of all matters of the royal family before Qiu Yuan became an adult. As soon as the edict came out, Qiu Shaocang took the lead in bowing down to Qiu Yuan and Tang He in the name of the first auxiliary minister, Qiu Shaocang had a wide network of contacts in the court and a deep foundation, so he was the first to take the lead in the edict, even if some ministers were suspicious of the edict, they did not dare to stand up and question, and the succession of the throne was too stable.
On the second day of Qiu Yuan's accession to the throne, Tang He named Qiu Shaocang as an auxiliary king on the grounds that his orphan and widow did not understand the government, and handed over all the power of the beast domain to Qiu Shaocang. Therefore, the current pattern of the Beast Domain is that Qiu Yuan, who is less than seven years old, is the nominal leader of the Beast Domain, but he has no real power, and the real power is all in the hands of Tang He and Qiu Shaocang, and the two of them are the real masters of the Beast Domain court today.
After all, Tang He is a woman who can't understand the art of power and scheming, and her true identity is Qiu Shaocang's righteous daughter, so it is natural to see who the new master of the Beast Domain Court is.
Although Qiu Shaocang firmly holds the power of the court as the auxiliary king, after all, there is a sect leader who is equal to the emperor and a soul master of the beast domain who has a more transcendent status, and the two of them are the key people who really control the life and death of the beast domain. Qiu Shaocang knew the pros and cons of this, and he also knew that Ji Yuan, the soul master of the Beast Domain, was far above the puppet sect master of Fengyan Ming, so he hurried to the Rakshasa Palace on the third day of sitting on the throne of the auxiliary king, the purpose was to win over Ji Yuan.
In the study, Qiu Shaocang explained to Ji Yuan his true intentions straight to the point, he wanted to replace Qiu Yuan in three or five years and become the real Beast Domain Emperor, and hoped to get Ji Yuan's support. Qiu Shaocang knew that Ji Yuan was not a person from the Beast Domain, and he did not have any stubborn thoughts of loyalty, as long as he could help Ji Yuan better control the Beast Domain, then Ji Yuan would have no reason not to agree to him.
Ji Yuan looked at Qiu Shaocang with a smile, although he despised this person extremely much in his heart, but on the surface, he didn't see the slightest displeasure, and said with a light smile: "The current emperor is young and frail, and it is indeed not suitable to be in charge of the overall situation of the government and the opposition. ”
"Soul Master rest assured, the old man must be loyal to Sect Master Lu and Ji Yuan Soul Master, and swear allegiance to the death! There will never be any dissenting intentions, otherwise I will not be able to die well when the sky thunders and splits!" Qiu Shaocang said with a swear.
Ji Yuan was not in a hurry to answer, but slowly took out a letter from his sleeve and said, "Whether Lord Qiu is loyal to Sect Master Lu or not is not something he says, but he has to go through a test. Now there is such an opportunity to test Master Qiu. ”
Qiu Shaocang couldn't help frowning when he heard this, and asked suspiciously: "I don't know what the soul master said is ......?"
"This is a secret letter from the sect master to me, he asked me to mobilize 30,000 masters from the beast domain to go to Donghua Island in the Immortal Domain on May 15 to wait for my order. Ji Yuan said faintly, "I don't know what Lord Qiu wants?"
"This ......" Qiu Shaocang couldn't help but speak, and after thinking twice in his heart, he slowly spoke, "Thirty thousand soldiers and horses are nothing, but Donghua Island is where the Donghua Palace of the Immortal Domain is located, and Yin Qianqiu, the Emperor of Donghua, is even more noble as the Sect Master of the Immortal Domain, if I do this rashly, wouldn't I be making enemies of the Yin Sect Master?"
"Sect Master Lu is to be the enemy of Sect Master Yin. Ji Yuan nodded, "Are you going?"
Qiu Shaocang was shocked in his heart, and said with a dry smile: "Now that the people in the Beast Domain have already looked at Sect Master Lu, they naturally want to obey orders, but they are just ...... It's just that this matter is a battle between sects, and the soul master should go to the Wind Sect Master to dispatch a master from the Rakshasa Palace, how can he find the old man? If the old man orders the dispatch of the Beast Domain army to Donghua Island, it will inevitably arouse the suspicion of the Immortal Domain royal family, and it will not be good for the Beast Domain and the Immortal Domain swords to meet each other because of a misunderstanding. The battle between the sects is different from the domain war, I'm just afraid of rashly interfering......"
"I've already said it on the Wind Sect Master's side. Ji Yuan waved his hand impatiently, and said frankly, "On that day, the Rakshasa Palace and the various clans of the Beast Domain will send a total of 3,000 Beast Domain masters to Donghua Island, and I now want Master Qiu to send 30,000 soldiers and horses just to help, not to ask your soldiers and horses to really fight with the disciples of Donghua Palace." Since Lord Qiu has many excuses to prevaricate this matter, then when I haven't said it, Lord Qiu should also go back!" After that, Ji Yuan already stood up with a displeased face, and he looked like he was not far away.
Ji Yuan's move made Qiu Shaocang so frightened that he was covered in a cold sweat, and hurriedly spoke: "Soul Master, don't worry, after I go back, I will immediately arrange for Wei Li to lead 30,000 black armor troops to Donghua Island. ”
Hearing Qiu Shaocang's words, a smile appeared on Ji Yuan's solemn face, and he said: "The so-called person who knows the times is Junjie, and Lord Qiu is really a Junjie of the Beast Domain, I think the position of the Emperor of the Beast Domain should be seated by a person like Lord Qiu." After this incident, I will definitely persuade the Wind Sect Master to jointly nominate you to become the new Beast Domain Emperor. ”
"Thank you so much for the soul master!" Qiu Shaocang thanked him again and again, but Ji Yuan glanced at Qiu Shaocang meaningfully, then snorted lightly with a smile and walked out of the study.
......
On the first day of the fifth month, the three holy mountains of the spiritual realm.
"Good!
Liu Sandao sat on the throne of the Three Temples, while Xiao Liuyi sat beside him quite obediently, looking curiously at the secret letter in Liu Sandao's hand.
"Husband, is this a letter from the prince of the Jade Building?" Xiao Liuyi asked with curiosity in his eyes, "Hasn't he been expelled from the sect by Sect Master Lu......?"
"Shhhh ”
"A scene?" Xiao Liuyi looked at Liu Sandao in surprise and muttered to himself, "No wonder you have been depressed for a month, and when you saw this letter today, you immediately became alive, it turned out to be ......like this."
A flash of excitement flashed in Liu Sandao's eyes, and he said with a smile: "Yulou asked me to order all the sects in the Spirit Domain to gather three thousand masters and go to Donghua Island on May 15 to wait. ”
Xiao Liuyi was stunned when he heard this, and asked worriedly: "Sect Master Lu didn't go to the Demon Domain to find Jun Wujie's bad luck, but went directly to the Immortal Domain?"
"You and I don't have to speculate on Yifan's thoughts, just do what the letter tells us. Liu Sandao waved his hand and said loudly, "I regret saying goodbye to Yifan that day, and I must help him this time." ”
"Are you going?" Xiao Liuyi frowned and said suspiciously, "But I just read what the letter said clearly let you stay in Sansheng Mountain to preside over the overall situation, and let my father take someone there." ”
Liu Sandao shook his head impatiently and said: "What is the overall situation here to preside?" Yulou is just afraid that your father and Mu Dingyang will be embarrassed again after I leave, but I don't know that you and I are no longer a nominal husband and wife now, and your belly is indeed ......."
At this point, Xiao Liuyi's face was already red and about to drip water. At the beginning, they accidentally got married, and the two didn't know how to get along afterwards, but after the two of them complained to each other on the night of the wedding, Liu Sandao and Xiao Liuyi gradually fell in love because of resentment, and now they are no longer a night husband and wife, but a night husband and wife, which can make Xiao Liuyi really pregnant with Liu Sandao's child so soon.
Liu Sandao couldn't help coughing lightly when he saw that Xiao Liuyi was a little shy, and then changed his words and said, "But I can't ignore Yulou's words." In this way, let your father preside over the overall situation, I will go to Donghua Island with your father, and Sansheng Mountain will be handed over to you to preside over the overall situation?"
Of course, Xiao Liuyi was reluctant to let Liu Sandao leave, but she knew Liu Sandao's feelings for Lu Yifan, and it was impossible for her to dissuade her. Xiao Liuyi was extremely thoughtful and intelligent, so he smiled and nodded in agreement: "That's fine, my husband must be careful all the way here, I'll wait for you to come back in Sansheng Mountain!"
Liu Sandao gently placed his big hand like a fan on Xiao Liuyi's lower abdomen, and said with a playful face: "Son, son, you just follow your mother here and wait for Lao Tzu to come back!"
Xiao Liuyi glared at Liu Sandao angrily, and pretended to be angry: "How do you know it's a son? Maybe it's a daughter?"
"Impossible! Lao Tzu's child must be a son, my Liu family has been a man of the same lineage for countless generations, how can I break the rules of my ancestors when I come here?" Liu Sandao said with a smile, "If he is a son who only teaches him to swear to protect Yifan's heirs in the future, if he is a daughter, then he will be married to Yifan......'s children!"
"Open your mouth and close your mouth is your Sect Master Lu, you are really loyal to Sect Master Lu!" Xiao Liuyi said with jealousy.
"That's right. Liu Sandao is really a lump of elm wood, not only can he not hear the anger in Xiao Liuyi's words, but he also proudly said frankly, "The people of the Liu clan live in this world for only one purpose, and that is to be loyal to the Shenyuan Divine Clan!"
"What about your wife and children?" Xiao Liuyi was jealous, and he had to ask today, "Is Sect Master Lu more important or me and my children important?"
Looking at Xiao Liuyi's serious appearance, Liu Sandao couldn't help but smile, then reached out and gently pinched the tip of Xiao Liuyi's nose, and said with a smile: "You are important, more important than my life!" Before Xiao Liuyi could smile, Liu Sandao added uninterestingly, "But Yifan is more important." ”
After that, Xiao Liuyi scolded without waiting for a sigh, but Liu Sandao suddenly got up and flew directly down from the high platform with a flash, and then left a string of afterimages in the hall and rushed out of the palace gate.
"Where are you going?" Xiao Liuyi was so angry that she paused again and again, and shouted coquettishly.
"Go to the Linghuang Mansion to find that old guy Mu Dingyang, the letter from Yulou said that he should transfer 30,000 troops to Donghua Island to help, I have to tell him to hurry up and prepare. Liu Sandao replied casually.
"Are you going alone?" Xiao Liuyi suddenly put away her temper and hurriedly asked worriedly.
Liu San stood on the steps outside the hall gate without looking back, and said with a smile: "I am now the soul master of the spirit domain, and I also want to see if Mu Dingyang recognizes me as the soul master, if you don't recognize it, then you can gather the major sects of the spirit domain and prepare to set foot in the Spirit Emperor's Mansion in one fell swoop......!"
Before the words fell, Liu Sandao quickly disappeared from Xiao Liuyi's sight.
