"Xuanyuan Sword?"

Ma Yu was startled and asked in surprise, "Are you saying that Fairy Ye has obtained the Xuanyuan Sword, one of the three major artifacts?" Could it be that she will use the Xuanyuan Sword to fight Ziling?"

Shi Ziling said: "I am just guessing whether Fairy Ye holds the Xuanyuan Sword, judging from the meeting at the last wedding banquet, Fairy Ye's spirit has made great progress, and the most important thing is that her confidence is extremely high, and the momentum she exudes has almost reached the point of being impeccable." From my spiritual sense, it all seems to have something to do with the sword she carried. ”

Ma Yu exclaimed: "Ziling, an artifact like the Xuanyuan Sword can amplify Fairy Ye's attack power several times, if she uses the Xuanyuan Sword against you, you monster will not be able to please you." ”

Bai Qingshuang said suspiciously: "I also know that the three major artifacts of the Dao are very powerful, but with the strength of Fujun, it has almost reached the level of the top three in the United States, Ye Zhenzhen is only the twelfth ranked master, even if he has the artifact in his hand, can he threaten Fujun in one fell swoop?"

Ma Yu said with a solemn expression: "No one can say how powerful the three major artifacts are, I only know that Aunt Gongsun used the Xuanyuan Sword to fight all over the world when she debuted in the early years of Lu Dao, and at that time her strength may not be as good as the current Ye Zhenzhen." Although Ziling is a martial arts wizard, it is really unpredictable whether he can withstand the test of this artifact......"

Bai Qingshuang has always been conceited and outstanding, and in the younger generation, except for her husband Shi Ziling, she doesn't pay much attention to others. Since marrying Shi Ziling, after continuous dual cultivation, Bai Qingshuang has continued to make progress in the family's inheritance of ice spirit and cold skills, and her self-confidence has also been rising, and she is not convinced that Ye Zhenzhen can be at the top of the list.

Bai Qingshuang said: "No matter how powerful the three major artifacts are, they are just external blade weapons, and I don't believe that they can be worthy of our many years of True Yuan cultivation." If I have a chance, I would like to compete with this Ye Zhenzhen to see how powerful she is?"

Although Ma Yu knows that Bai Qingshuang's strength is not bad, he is expected to be far away from Ye Zhenzhen, but it is inconvenient to say it directly. He looked at Shi Ziling and made a helpless gesture.

Shi Ziling said to Bai Qingshuang: "Qingshuang, although I don't know what the power of the three major artifacts is, since Li Xiaoyao can use the 'Heaven Turning Seal' to injure Master Huiming, it can be seen that its power must be extraordinary." ”

"Ye Zhenzhen fought against me, and although I narrowly defeated her a year ago, I didn't have much advantage at that time. Although you have made a lot of progress recently, in my estimation, you should not be Fairy Ye's opponent. ”

"It will take at least a month for Zhirou and I to go to the central part of the country, after we leave, you will be the strongest master in the family, once there is something at home, it will depend on you to bear the maintenance, so you must be cautious in everything, and discuss with Yulan or Ma Yu if you have something, and you must not go to Fairy Ye to compete without authorization, otherwise how can I rest assured?"

Although Bai Qingshuang was not convinced, she didn't want Shi Ziling to be worried, so she had to say: "Don't worry, I'm just talking, I don't have time to compete with Ye Zhenzhen." ”

Shi Ziling was relieved at this time, and then he made proper arrangements for the affairs in the legion, explained to Ma Yu, Bai Qingshuang, Wei Song, Wei Hu and others one by one, and carefully selected two horses with outstanding foot strength, and then returned to the Dutong Mansion with Bai Qingshuang.

Early the next morning, Shi Ziling took Su Zhirou to ride a horse and galloped towards the central part, while Gu Fei, the deputy commander, led 5,000 soldiers to follow.

In order to be in a hurry, Shi Ziling and Su Zhirou did not go hand in hand with Gu Fei's five thousand military horses, but quickly stepped forward far ahead.

The horses ridden by the two of them were carefully selected by Shi Ziling from the legions, not only were they fast, but their endurance was also quite outstanding, and Shi Ziling and Su Zhirou often dismounted and started to run in the longitudinal technique, so that the horses could get enough rest, so the marching speed along the way was always fast.

Except for the necessary accommodation and rest at night, the two of them were simple, and the twenty-day journey took them only fifteen days to reach the powerful range of the Tang family in the central part of the country.

The 5,000 troops and horses stationed here in the east were temporarily commanded by the deputy general Yang Weiqing after Zhao Xiong was captured, and after Zhao Xiong's accident, Yang Weiqing led the team to retreat back twenty miles, and was waiting for instructions from Songhu City.

As soon as he heard that Shiziling was coming, Yang Weiqing was overjoyed and hurriedly brought someone out to greet him.

After seeing the ceremony, Yang Weiqing said: "I have really been on pins and needles these days, and I want to negotiate with the people of the Tang family, but they ignore us at all and want to return to Songhu City, but I don't dare to act without Lord Su's order." ”

"In addition, I have to guard against the people of the Tang family and Ruyimen all day long and come to attack and arrest people again, alas, it is really like a year......!

After Shi Ziling and Su Zhirou entered the tent of the Chinese military camp and sat down, they asked about the details of Zhao Xiong's arrest.

Yang Weiqing said: "Since our 10,000 troops and horses came here, they have stationed the military camp on the periphery far from the Tang family's defense circle, and have been at peace with the Tang family's men and horses. ”

"Who knew that a few nights ago suddenly a group of masters entered the camp, this group of people is outstanding, by no means comparable to ordinary sergeants, although we struggled to resist, but the strength gap is too big, especially the Ruyi Gate Fang is very powerful, there is almost no general under him, Zhao Dutong only blocked him a few moves, and he was captured alive on the spot. ”

Su Zhirou asked, "Are you sure that the side of Ruyi Gate is different?"

Yang Weiqing looked at Su Zhirou and saw that she was handsome and dressed in men's clothes, and she didn't know what her identity was.

Shi Ziling said: "This is my wife Zhirou, who is also a disciple of the true person of the Ruyi Sect, who specially followed me to rescue General Zhao Xiong this time. ”

Su Bairen's daughter Su Zhirou's engagement with Shi Ziling had already spread, and Yang Weiqing had already heard about it, and when he heard that it was the daughter of Master Su and the unknown disciple of Ruyi Sect, he hurriedly replied respectfully:

"Fang Wei of Ruyimen has been to Songhu City once before, and he happened to see him once, and his appearance is strange and unforgettable, so I recognized him immediately. ”

Shi Ziling asked, "After Zhao Dutong was arrested, did the people of the Tang family move?"

Yang Weiqing shook his head and said, "No, it's just that when Fang Wei left at that time, he asked us to immediately withdraw back to Songhu City, and he hasn't sent anyone to contact us since then." I didn't dare to retreat back to Songhu City without permission, but I still let our people retreat another twenty miles, which can be regarded as a sign of our courtesy. ”

Shi Ziling asked about the situation of several other people stationed in the local area.

Yang Weiqing said: "In addition to our Zhao Dutong, Nangong Tai, a deputy capital commander of the Nangong family sent here, has also been arrested. ”

"No one from the other military horses was arrested, but there were not many of them coming, and most of them quietly withdrew later, but they left some soldiers and horses to make a show, and there were no important generals, and they didn't bother to arrest them if they wanted to come to the Tang family and Ruyimen. ”

Shi Ziling pondered for a moment and said, "General Yang, without further ado, please take me to the Tang family's military camp, and I will negotiate with their people." ”

Yang Weiqing was surprised: "Shi Dutong, should we go now?" You are tired all the way, it is better to take a rest, over there in the Tang camp, we just need to send a sentinel to hand over your name post." Also, did Lord Su agree to withdraw his troops?"

Shi Ziling said: "Although Lord Su is concerned about the safety of Zhao Dutong, he is unwilling to disobey the order of the imperial court to withdraw his troops, so he sent me to negotiate with the people of the Tang family. You're right, if I go directly to the Tang camp now, it seems that I am indeed a little anxious, so it's better to let them tell the prophet that I'm here. ”

"Then according to your wishes, send a sentry to hand my name card to the Tang camp, if the other party asks, just say that I, General Shi Ziling, am willing to negotiate with them in order to save General Zhao Xiong, and I hope the Tang family can reply as soon as possible." ”

Yang Weiqing immediately sent an outpost officer to put Shi Ziling's name into the Tang camp, saying that Shi Ziling had something to do and wanted to discuss with the other party's generals.

After receiving the name post, Tang Ying's side immediately reported it, and soon someone quickly reported to the Chinese army headquarters of the Tang family in Zhongzhou City. When the general camp heard that Shi Ziling, the number one master in the east, had come to the central part of the country in person, he did not dare to slack off, and immediately reported the situation again.

At this time, the Tang family had already established itself as the king, and the head of the family, Tang Jingtian, proclaimed himself the king of Tang, set Zhongzhou City as the capital, and specially built a palace. When the news of Shi Ziling's arrival reached the palace, Tang Jingtian was discussing the current situation with his ministers and generals.

The Tang family recently got news that the newly established legion of the imperial court in Yanjing has been basically formed, and it is very likely that it will officially wave its army to attack the Tang family.

Although Tang Jingtian did not think that the army sent by the imperial court could really win against him if he came from afar, but considering that the men and horses from all over the country stationed near the central part in the early stage were always a threat, in order to make the imperial court and the various military horses that came from all over the country unable to form a joint force, Tang Jingtian discussed with Ruyimen before deciding to send people to seize Zhao Xiong and Nangong Tai, who were the leaders, in order to force these military horses to withdraw early, so that the imperial army would not dare to act rashly.

Who knows that after a period of time, whether it is the men and horses from the east or the army from the south, although they have retreated for dozens of miles, they have not completely retreated, while the army horses from some other small places have only retreated for dozens of miles in the east, and there is no intention of completely withdrawing the army.

Tang Jingtian was quite unhappy about this, and when he was about to discuss a good strategy with his subordinate ministers, the news came that Shi Ziling, the commander of the Eastern Songhu Legion and the first master, had arrived.

Tang Jingtian was a little surprised, and hurriedly ordered someone to invite Fang Wuming from Ruyimen to come over.
