Chapter 66: Undercurrent

Jiang Minghao followed Xu Sansi to speak.

Luo Chen shook his head and said, "The big things that the ancient demon clan and the county king talked about, the younger generations don't know. ”

Xu Sansi was a little surprised, staring at Luo Chen's eyes, wanting to see if he was lying.

Luo Chen's eyes were clear, and there was no hint of falsehood, he nodded and said, "You don't even know about this, it seems that the purpose of the ancient demon clan is only this." ”

Luo Chen said: "Wujiang is looking for me, it is completely about my personal affairs, and it does not talk about Lingwu County. ”

Xu Sansi took a deep breath, thought for a while, and said with a smile: "Since it is your private matter, you don't want to talk about it, and you should do it." ”

Luo Chen's mind had already been put on what Tian Wuliang said, and asked, "I don't know what major matters were discussed between the ancient demon clan and the king of Lingwu County?"

Jiang Minghao's face was white, and he said loudly in a rough and powerful voice: "An agreement has been reached between the ancient demon clan and the King of Lingwu County, and they will enter the Lingwu County Kingdom and become the fourth top force. ”

"It's such a thing, how could the King of Lingwu County agree to such a request?" Luo Chen said.

Xu Sansi sighed and said: "How can you not agree, the ancient demon clan is a big clan in the Middle Ages, when the emperor was there, the ancient demon clan lived in the north and had always been at peace with the human race, but now the emperor is in retreat and has not asked about the world for many years." The ancient demon clan is now faintly moving into the middle region. ”

The emperor in Xu Sansi's mouth is the supreme ruler of the Nylon Central Empire, Song Qianqiu. In fact, soon after Song Qianqiu revived the empire, he had already disappeared, and the ancient demon clan in the forbidden area bordering Zhuzhou and Zhuzhou had friction with the human race all the time, launching attacks on the cities on the border of the human race.

Although the scale is relatively small, the ancient demon clan's heart to test Song Qianqiu's attitude is well known to the world.

After a few temptations, the ancient demon clan found that the nylon empire did not make any moves, so they let go of their courage and expanded the scope of the war.

The two royal families of Zhuzhou and Sinzhou spontaneously called on the human race to jointly resist the invasion of the ancient demon clan. The ancient demon clan saw the determination of the human race to join forces, so they chose to retreat.

However, the ancient demon clan is still unwilling, and the human race will still be attacked, and over time, the ancient demon clan and the human race have established a front to compete with each other on the borders of various states.

The Fengbei Forbidden Zone, which has always been peaceful, now has the ancient demon clan born and wants to enter the Lingwu County Kingdom, which makes them begin to wonder if the ancient demon clan in the Fengbei Forbidden Zone also has this trend.

"The Ancient Demon Clan hasn't made much of a move at the moment, and we have also contacted other counties in Fengzhou, but we haven't taken it seriously. Xu Sansi said.

"Not only that, but there is an even more serious problem in the Lingwu Monarchy, but this is not something you should worry about right now. Luo Chen, you can participate in the year-end assessment, in fact, it is exactly what I want, I believe you can win a place in the selection competition. ”

"Your strength should completely appear in the selection competition, and compete with the geniuses of the first and second echelons to compete for a ticket to the imperial capital to participate in the martial arts conference. ”

The other elders were stunned, and they couldn't imagine that Xu Sansi's expectations for Luo Chen were so high. Except for Tian Wuliang, who had seen Luo Chen's talent, no one else had seen Luo Chen's strength, and they all showed curiosity, wanting to know what was so outstanding about Luo Chen, which made Xu Sansi value it so much.

You must know that Xu Sansi is in the Moyu Sect, and his cultivation is second only to the sect master Jiang Juezhi, and the person he can look at must be a rare genius.

Jiang Minghao showed a smile and said loudly: "Luo Chen, you have to behave well tomorrow, let us all see the old man." ”

Luo Chen was embarrassed and said modestly: "It's all Elder Xu's false praise, and the juniors are not very afraid, for fear that they will disappoint the seniors when the time comes!"

......

Luo Chen and Xu Sansi chatted briefly, and then said goodbye to them.

It was getting late, and the moon was already in the background. Luo Chen didn't delay any longer and left in the direction of the Lingwu Courtyard.

The walls of Shuyu Mansion are high-pitched and uneven, under the moonlight, flickering between the palaces.

Just above the roof of a dark and silent palace, a pitch-black figure stood, covered itself in a black robe.

He looked at another dark place, and slowly raised his head, the face under the cloak looming, and under the darkness, it was impossible to see the true face.

In that darkness, a figure walked out, kneeling in the moonlight, his face was terrifying, almost no flesh and blood made up of his face, and the whole face was like a skeleton.

The skull face raised his head, looked at the black shadow in front of him, looked at the face under the cloak, showed a look of awe and trepidation, and said, "Lord!"

The black shadow looked at the skull face and said, "Xuanchen, how many years have I raised you?"

When the skeletal face heard this, he was even more horrified, and kowtowed three times in a row, if there was flesh on his face, maybe it would have been sweating like rain.

"That boundless, it doesn't seem to be an ordinary free realm, and that divine cat has an imitation of the Mixed Yuan Bead, and with the boundless, his subordinates are not his opponents. ”

"Your current strength is not much better than Jiang Juezhi's, it seems that this boundless strength is not the same as what you saw when you fought against Jiang Juezhi that day. ”

Xuan Chen's seeping face seemed to show a sneer, and said, "I'm afraid that only if you go out in person, the Lord, can you succeed." ”

"If you don't say anything courteous, I have been arranging in Lingwu County for so many years, just for that thing in the Ninth World Warp Wheel, if I make a move now, it will definitely cause an uproar, if this is exposed, can you bear this responsibility?"

Hearing the words of the black shadow, a pair of eyeballs on Xuan Chen's skeletal face widened, and bloodshot shook in it, and he couldn't help but be terrified when he thought of the force behind the Lord.

He immediately made a name and said: "Recently, the people below have seen that Wujiang has come out of the Southern Spirit Ghost Domain, this is a good opportunity to seize the Jiuli Divine Cat, if it is successful, not only can you get the Jiuli Divine Cat, but you can also use the pseudo-mixed yuan bead to shatter the Ninth World Warp Wheel, then to that real treasure." ”

"No, I'm going to ask you to do something else now. The eyes of the black shadow stared in the direction Luo Chen left, and let out a low chuckle softly, "I didn't expect that I had been in the Lingwu County for many years, and I hadn't found the hidden dragon and crouching tiger in this pickled land. ”

Xuan Chen looked at the direction where the black shadow was looking, and seemed to understand something, and cautiously probed: "I don't know what the lord wants his subordinates to do, it's ......"

He didn't say anything, but made a gesture of wiping his neck with his hand, and there was murder in his eyes.

"Hmph, you still have a bit of a brain, this is what you do! Remember, you have to get the exercises on his body first, and then kill him to get rid of the trouble!"

Xuan Chen took the order, covered his face with a black cloth, and prepared to disappear into the darkness.

"Wait!"

The shadow stopped him.

Xuanchen turned around, knelt down again, and said, "What else does the Lord command?"

A black pill was thrown out of the darkness, flashing under the moonlight, Xuan Chen caught the pill, and then the black shadow said: "The identity of the deacon of the self-walking sect before can no longer be used, in the days when you are away, they have already invited the king of Lingwu County to know that you killed Luo Xing." ”

"King Lingwu actually has this kind of strength, and he can find out the truth from dead people. Xuan Chen was shocked, he didn't expect that he would be exposed so quickly when he killed Luo Xing.

The black shadow sneered and said, "It's really interesting, this Lingwu County King's spiritual power seems to have improved in the past fifty years. Originally, I thought that I could use this to confront each other between the Self-propelled Sect and the Shaoyang Sect, and it was more likely that there would be a gap between the Moyu Sect and the Lingwu County King. ”

"What I never expected was that the ants I didn't pay attention to were scheming very quickly. The King of Lingwu County has failed to track down your whereabouts, and it seems that he has discovered that someone is secretly doing tricks and is secretly investigating the whole country. ”

Xuan Chen's eyes twitched, pondered for a while, and said in a deep voice: "Then next, whether you want to let our men and horses be put on hold for the time being." ”

The black shadow sneered again, and said, "No need, you swallow this thousand-faced pill now, change your identity, continue to do your thing, go first!"

"Subordinates say goodbye!"

Xuanchen disappeared into the darkness and disappeared completely.

In the Hanhai Palace, it was calm as usual, as if nothing had happened, and no one knew that there was a strange undercurrent that was about to overturn the fate of the entire Lingwu County.

When Luo Chen returned to the No. 9 Courtyard, he saw a scene he never expected.

The whole courtyard was in shambles, as if it had been on fire, and a piece of the corner of the hall was missing.

In the courtyard, the ground was full of spirit wood that had been burned into ash and blackened pills that had failed to be refined.

Luo Chen's mind was full of strange thoughts, why was the house gone when he went out?

There was a pair of people dressed in official clothes, standing in the courtyard, and one of the officials in purple official uniforms showed a strange look on his face when he saw the main lord Luo Chen coming back.

"Chai Gongzi just came back?"

Luo Chen said: "What's going on?"

He immediately thought of whether it was a good thing that Fu Yutang had done.

The official's face sank, and he said: "I thought it was Chai Gongzi who had an accident, but since Chai Gongzi has just come back, it seems that someone deliberately destroyed the courtyard, which is really unreasonable." ”

"Fortunately, when this Lingwu Courtyard was built, the materials used to build the main house were strong, and they were basically intact in this explosion, otherwise, I'm afraid that Chai Gongzi will have to move to another place tonight. ”

"Your Excellency said it was an explosion?"

Luo Chen pondered for a moment, and a picture appeared in his mind, as if he understood the ins and outs of the whole thing, and an extremely wonderful expression appeared on his face.

The junior official noticed that something was wrong on Luo Chen's face, showed a strange look, and said, "Young Master Chai, is there any problem?"

"Oh, nothing! Maybe it's too much work. ”

Luo Chen pretended to be tired, and said: "Just now I was stopped by Tian Wuliang, the fourth elder of the Moyu Sect, who said that he greatly appreciated my performance today, so he left the junior in Shuyu Mansion for a while, hoping that after the year-end assessment is over, he will follow him back to Qiongyu Mountain and worship under his door." ”

"Tian... Elder Tian?!"

......

In the only main room where the ceiling did not have a skylight, the dust on the floor and the sparks that had not yet been extinguished, the temperature of the whole room was like a stove.

Luo Chen took a section of leaves and bamboo branches, barely swept out a place to sit, smelled the pungent choking smell in the air, stared at a locker, and said, "Come out, everyone is gone." ”
