Chapter 199: Crisis

"In Xia Cai Zongping, the warrior under the command of King Wan Qian, today is indeed plotting against him, but the last time the barbarian was killed, it has nothing to do with us, if there is half a lie, fall into purgatory and never recover!" The old man of the black shadow endured the pain and said angrily.

Xue Tong killed the leader of the God Sect back then, shocked the world, and the appearance of the white tiger and the bone puppet became the talk of the Wanqian warriors for decades.

The moment he summoned the spirit pet, Cai Zongping immediately thought of it, and immediately collapsed, and his fighting spirit disappeared.

Xue Tong's eyes flashed, and he was half convinced.

Seeing this, the other three also launched a poisonous oath.

"A warrior under the command of King Wanqian? What's going on?" Xue Tong asked.

"The Taoist knows that the rule of the dynasty needs the support of the Xuan Realm, and the King of Wanqian cannot rely only on the Holy Alliance, but needs to balance multiple forces and cultivate cronies, and the four of us are the monks of the king." Cai Zongping took the wound medicine, tightened his broken leg and said.

"How many people like you are there?"

"About twenty, half of the day after tomorrow, I never make trouble outside on weekdays, and I only asked me to wait for the dynasty to come forward when I encountered a problem."

"The Holy Alliance doesn't know about your existence?"

"You should have heard of it, but the Holy Alliance and the Dynasty have never quarreled, and the Dynasty does not pose a threat, so the Holy Alliance does not take it to heart."

"That's what you said, the new king succeeded to the throne more than twenty years ago, didn't the Holy Alliance prevent his ambitions from being too great? Does King Wanqian cultivate martial arts?"

"In the middle of the day after tomorrow, almost nothing can be done by force, and martial arts cultivation is just to prolong life and enjoy the extreme of the world for a few more years."

"Every ten years, the Holy Alliance will use the name of the martial arts competition conference to test the king's cultivation, if the martial arts grow too fast, he will be vigilant, the king is very aware of this point, never cause trouble, and live leisurely and happily under the current rule system."

Xue Tong heard Cai Zongping's words a little indoors, and it didn't seem to be fake, so he asked: "Who did the barbarian attack on?"

"I didn't know that after the barbarian was killed, the situation in Wanqian was in chaos, and the king felt that the opportunity was coming, and the news of Xue Daochang's solo invasion of the martial arts hall reached the palace, and the king ordered us to hunt down and kill..., further disturbing the situation." Cai Zongping replied tremblingly.

"Opportunity? What opportunity does King Wan Qian want?"

"The new king succeeded to the throne, dissatisfied with the Holy Alliance's excessive consumption of resources, but did not dare to uphold it on the surface, the barbarian killing may bring huge trouble to the Holy Alliance, the new king is happy to see it, and he can't wait for the barbarians and the Holy Alliance to fight, a seriously weakened Holy Alliance is more in line with the interests of the royal family."

"The new king has used his brains, and his ambitions are not small."

"I don't dare to speculate"

"Spreading Wei Wuxian is the real murderer, and it's also a good thing for you to do."

"In order to disrupt the situation, it is better to involve more people to come in, the more difficult it is to find out, and the longer it takes, the more likely it is that the lion will go to war."

"You muddy the waters and promote war, and their hearts are so sinister!"

"I don't know if it's Daoist Xue, otherwise I will give my king and stop muddying the waters." Cai Zongping begged for mercy.

"You should be killed, and if you want to leave a life that will be useful in the future, you will temporarily send your head, and all the spirit stone pills will be handed over!"

Xue Tong confiscated the spirit stone pills of the four people, gave half of them to Luo Du and Lu Tu, and said: "You must keep it a secret, you must not reveal today's things, in the future, big things will be done, and promotion will be easy, if you leak the news, you can't afford it." ”

"I will tell the senior management of the lion department"

Luo Du and Lu Tu picked up a life and got rich, and they agreed in succession.

"Xue let you go!"

Cai Zongping had roughly guessed the moment he handed over the spirit stone, but he couldn't help but be ecstatic when he looked forward to it coming true, and he said in a trembling voice: "Xue Dao has a large number of people, and he is replacing him... I am grateful for the brothers. ”

Others followed suit and thanked them.

"After I go back, stop spreading false news about Wei Wuxian, my identity will be found out sooner or later, and I don't need you to talk nonsense."

"The Holy Alliance can't afford to offend, so it's better for the dynasty to have fewer ideas." Xue Tong said.

Cai Zongping agreed and left in a boat with his companions.

"What, let them go?" Luo Du was puzzled.

"If you get money and spare people's lives, these people will be useful if you keep them."

"It's better to catch the East Cottage and lock it up"

"It's getting more and more complicated"

"Luo Du, don't be long-winded, listen to Daoist Xue!" Rutu shouted.

……

In the area of Dongliang Mountain, there are more than ten valleys of all sizes, nearly half of the people and horses of the lion department are gathered, and the number of warriors reaches 5,000.

Wu Huolin, the leaders of the Golden Lion and Green Lion Legions received the report, and Lutu and Luo Du brought important people of the human race back to the village.

The Golden Lion and the Green Lion Legion are two of the three main forces of the Lion Division, and the original chief and deputy commander of the Green Lion are the innate warriors who were attacked by the barbarians last time and fell, and the current leader is a new person.

And Wu Huolin, the big clan, is the second person in the lion department.

The five people waited in the tent for Xue Tong and his party.

"Xue Tong? and the ancestor killed Gong Renchou and Gongsun Kui's Xue Tong in Wanqian King City?" Hollin didn't seem to believe it.

"The white bone orc carving is here, open your eyes and take a look!"

As soon as the barbarians saw this carving, their faces changed greatly, and they immediately became respectful, and the lion was congenitally strangled to death by the old Zu Maken in public because of his disrespect for the bone carving.

"Ask Daoist Xue, what should the lion department do?" Huo Lin bowed.

"In the opinion of the poor, this matter should not be delayed, the negotiation requirements should be greatly reduced, the compensation will be collected symbolically, the investigation will continue, and the plan will be made according to the results."

"The great war between the people and the barbarians more than a hundred years ago cannot be repeated." Xue Tong said.

A few people discussed a small half-day of kung fu.

"Report to the chief to redecide" Huo Lin basically agreed with Xue Tong's proposal.

……

The huge claim of the Lion Department was reduced from 60 million spirit stones to 10% in advance, which was used to compensate the close relatives of the deceased.

Gao Yizhong and others were released, and their activities were limited to the Painted Plains Prefecture.

At first, no one was willing to pay this money, but the Holy Alliance was tough, and a spirit stone was not given, and finally it was paid in advance by the Wanqian Dynasty.

Once the war starts, the lives will be ruined, the Wanqian Dynasty explained.

"Maybe King Wan Qian intends to show goodwill, worried that the Holy Alliance will find trouble for him."

"The matter has not been resolved, it is just suppressed for the time being. See who has better patience, the real murderer's goal has not been reached, I don't know how long I can endure it, and the fire of revenge of the lion is not sure when it will be rekindled. Xue Tong pondered.

The Leos withdrew one after another, and Xue Tong stayed in the camp temporarily.

More than a month later, the Holy Alliance received information that the Holy Alliance had arrested several scattered cultivators who participated in the murder in Huoxiang Valley, and it was said that they were all hired by others, and the information of the hired people was incomplete, and the search progress was slow.

"There is no evidence that the Holy Alliance is involved"

A very strict warning talisman was arranged near Xue Tong's residence, and he practiced every day in the cave and consulted the Liuhe Array diagram.

……

A year has passed.

The number of orcs in the camp increased again.

"Dao Chief, the strength of the Lion Sect has reached the strongest in three hundred years, and the Holy Alliance has investigated it for so long without results, our clan doesn't need to endure this breath again!"

"Wait any longer, morale will be damaged, and the gains will outweigh the losses, I have received news that the Leos are pulling out Dongliang Mountain." The Golden Lion Legion Commander said.

"The lion department has grown well, from more than 100 years of peace, Xue can't persuade you, you can't go back to the sky, whatever." Xue Tong didn't plan to care anymore.

He had become more inclined to believe that the case was the work of a barbarian.

"The Lion Tribe, which is close to the Bear Tribe, are friendly tribes, and both Tribes have strengthened their vigilance, and the Great Chief Gilech has even promised to provide assistance in due course."

"The Ink Lion Legion has also set up camp in the north," said the Golden Lion Commander.

"Okay, you guys are doing it for yourselves, Xue Mou has nothing to do with himself."

Xue Tong left Dongliang Mountain that night and flew to Jiayuan by eagle.

He wasn't sure if the original bloodshed was a bitter ploy by the lion tribe, or a trick by the wolf tribe, or a conspiracy orchestrated by the high chief Gilrich's inflated ambitions.

……

The negotiations broke down again, and the barbarians of Wanqian evacuated in large numbers, and the dynasty and the Holy League urgently asked for help from Jiayuan and Dasheng.

"The battle between the human and barbarian races, the lips are dead and the teeth are cold, and there is no hope to help each other."

The messenger from Wan Qian flew to various places overnight.

Jishan.

"No, it's really that big!" Xiao Yuer said.

"When did Brother Xue lie to you, when I came back, I said that the consequences were serious, but you still don't believe it."

"I knew it was serious, I didn't know it was so fast, so serious! How will the situation develop? Xiao Yu'er stuck out her tongue and said.

"Wan Qian suffered, and the barbarians are hard to say."

"What does it mean?"

"The barbarians are not monolithic, the two Wolf Rock are ambitious, the two Vulture are neutral, and the bear, the Yu, and the lion are allied, and there are many variables in this, so it is difficult to say."

Xue Tong said again: "Maybe only the barbarian old Zu Maken, the leader of the Holy Alliance, Xiao Bai, can resolve the crisis. ”

"Your own family!" Xue Tong joked.

"Well, it's a pity that Yu'er doesn't know Grandmaster Xiao."

"What if you get acquainted?"

"Then I don't want Xue Da's supernatural powers, haha." Xiao Yuer replied jokingly.

"Alas, it's a pity that no one knows behind this matter, so it's hard to do." Xue Tong sighed.

While the two were talking, the deacon steward came to invite Xue Tong to go to Chijin Peak to discuss matters.

The Hall of the Clouds.

Zheng Xuan said: "The envoy of the Holy Alliance asks for help, how should you reply?"

"I don't have much contact with the Holy Alliance on weekdays, so don't need help."

"At that time, Qisha and Da Yue, who were partial to peace and thousands of things, have basically agreed and are discussing the details."

"What is Xianyuan's opinion?"

Everyone was gossiping and talking.

"What about Xue Daoyou?" Zheng Xuan saw that Xue Tong was silent, so he simply asked.

"No matter how good this matter is, everything is like a molten tripod, and it will burn and scorch the forces that go there, and the consequences are unpredictable. Since it is not the business of the sect and its own country, there is no need to take care of it. Xue Tong said.

"The envoy of the Holy Alliance said that the foreign warriors only stay in the rear, alchemy, refining weapons, drawing talismans, healing, and so on."

"What about Dasheng?" Xue Tong asked.

"The ghost dojo is still thinking about it, Zhanxing Pavilion and Que Immortal Palace basically agree, the two sects are dissatisfied with the Xuangu Divine Sect and want to take the opportunity to find some variables." Zheng Xuan said.

"So Wan Qian has become a melting ding, and it is complicated."

Zheng Xuan suddenly said: "I heard that Ao Wu also has someone to go. ”

Xue Tong's complexion changed slightly.

Zheng Xuan continued: "Most of them are scattered cultivation, and there are many people who join in the excitement of a rare war in a hundred years, and it is an inter-clan war. ”

"It's okay if Yunxiao Sect wants to go, but Xue is no longer suitable to travel outside." Xue Tong heard that Zheng Xuan wanted to help and said.

"Zheng stayed in Wan Qian in his early years, where the people were harmonious, and the orcs were not satisfied with the smooth exchange of personnel and materials, and they tried to invade Wan Qian, my generation of human race, we can't sit idly by." Zheng Xuan lifted the lid and said that the Yunxiao Sect would also send people.

"Between the two races, it is really a battle for more than a hundred years, which seems to be caused by a few beast corpses on the surface, but in fact it is triggered by the ambition of the forces behind it." Wei Geng said.

"Well, Chijin Peak is too far away, Da Yue and Qisha are in Liaoshan Mountain, three hundred miles away from the Wanqian border in Jiayuan, and set up a rear camp, Xue Daoyou will go with you."

"The scale of this battle can be compared with the time when Luo Qianyan, Gong Renchou, and Ma Ken participated in the war." Zheng Xuan said.
