The Eastern Tang Dynasty counterattacked, and the two sides came and went, and for a while, the momentum of Chang'an City's capture of Hexi County was delayed.

However, on the whole, it is still Chang'an that has the upper hand, controlling every inch of Hexi County little by little.

Although there are repetitions because of Dongtang's actions, as long as the place is completely stabilized, it will be difficult for Dongtang to cause chaos again.

Zhang Dongyun, who was in the Daming Palace in Chang'an City, didn't worry too much, and let Zhang Chong, Chen Jiezhi, Hu Ming and others play freely.

Many people from Dahe Longmen, the Chen family, and Tingshan Academy went to Hexi County to explore, and several families paid attention to that side.

The two families of the Hanshan Sect and the Thunderbolt Sect in Longbei County, who stayed behind, were much more relaxed.

They don't care about the ground outside Longbei County, and they all work hard in Longbei County.

During this period, especially the Hanshan faction developed more rapidly.

Guo Zi, Hui Tianyu, Cao Feng and others vaguely found that the Perak Sect has been much more low-key recently.

They don't go to Hexi County, and many of the clansmen stay in Longbei County and don't move, but live in a simple place.

Guo Zi and the others were curious at first, but then suddenly understood.

Up and down the Thunderbolt Sect, almost everyone was cultivating hard.

Their Musashi mastery has been renovated.

Just like when the Hanshan faction and the Chen family were at that time.

No wonder everyone felt that the state of the Thunderbolt Sect looked somewhat familiar.

Realizing this, everyone in the Cold Mountain Sect felt a little nervous.

The Chen family, Dahe Longmen, and Tingshan Academy all showed their intention to expand.

Those who stayed in Longbei County to operate were mainly the Hanshan Sect and the Perak Sect.

Although the two sides have cooperated well on the issue of Chang'an West City, they are essentially competitors.

Before, the Hanshan faction in Qinzhou Mansion was close to the water and took the first step.

Whether it is in the Heavenly Pivot Palace, the Heavenly Punishment Palace, etc., there are many outstanding Hanshan disciples who hold important positions.

The Hanshan faction was even guided by Mr. Wuyun to perfect his own Hanshan mental method and learn the Night Horror Sword.

Such a reward, in the entire Chang'an before, only they and the Chen family got it.

But now, the Thunderbolt Sect also has it.

Coupled with the fact that Mr. Wuyun had arranged for them to lead the reuse of Chang'an West City before, the Perak Sect has been rising non-stop for the past few days.

Guo Zi, the head of the Hanshan Sect, was in a slightly heavy mood, and after thinking about it, he went to visit Wu Qiong, the head of the Perak Sect, and prepared to explore the news.

After the results were gone, Wu Qiong's disciples said that their teacher was in retreat.

After Guo Zi heard this, his heart became slightly heavier.

Just as he was about to leave, it happened that Wu Qiong was out of the customs.

When the two met, Guo Zi noticed the other party's breathing, and his eyebrows couldn't help but move slightly: "Congratulations Brother Wu, the cultivation realm has broken through to the fifth realm." ”

Sure enough, as he expected, Wu Qiong's cultivation progressed in the realm, from the fourth realm of martial arts to the fifth realm flying general.

Such a sudden progress, needless to ask, must have originated from Mr. Dark Cloud's guidance.

"Don't dare to be, Brother Guo is the forerunner, and the younger brother just follows step by step. Wu Qiong smiled.

Almost all of the Cold Mountain Sect had breakthroughs before, and they were even taught by the Night Horror Sword, which really made Infinity and the Thunderbolt Sect envious.

Mr. Dark Cloud has never given a similar reward, which makes the Thunderbolt Sect feel sad.

Wu Qiong forcibly suppressed the thoughts in her heart, didn't care about these, and only led the Thunderbolt Sect to do things seriously.

The Emperor has lived up to his wishes, and now it is finally time for them to soar into the sky.

Finally, his previous hard work was not in vain.

After a few polite words from the two heads, Guo Zi said goodbye and left.

The first thing he did when he returned to the Hanshan Sect was to urge all his disciples to practice with their hearts and do errands for Chang'an.

Previously, because of the departure of Dahe Longmen and Tingshan Academy from Longbei, the people of the Hanshan faction breathed a sigh of relief.

But now Guo Zi asked them to re-tense up, otherwise they might be overtaken by the Thunderbolt Sect at any time.

On the other side, Wu Qiong sent Guo Zi away, and also convened a meeting of the top leaders of the Perak Sect, asking everyone to work hard next.

Although the Cold Mountain Sect is one step ahead, the current lead is not big, and it is not impossible for them to surpass the other party.

After the improved internal training method, there are also five thunder and heart palm mastery, and the rest of the Thunderbolt Sect is also the time when their hearts are at their highest, and they all patted their chests and assured Wu Qiong.

Wu Qiong was satisfied and let everyone leave.

There was a Thunderbolt Sect elder who was left behind, and it seemed that he had something to say.

"What's wrong?" Wu Qiong asked.

"Master, during your retreat, the disciples from Tongzhou Mansion came to me and saw something special. The other party said softly: "Earlier, the signal imprint used by outsiders to contact the former master. ”

Wu Qiong's eyes suddenly froze: "Have you ever reported to Mr. Wuyun?"

"Not ...... yet," the other replied quietly.

Wu Qiong exhaled a long breath: "Don't hide it, report it immediately." ”

"Yes. The Thunderbolt Sect elder hurriedly responded.

Wu Qiong went with him to meet Mr. Wuyun, thinking as he walked on the road.

The former head of his Thunderbolt Sect had previously been in contact with a mysterious person, who might be at the behest of a certain highness of the Eastern Tang Dynasty.

But when the head of the Perak Sect changed, Wu Qiong failed to find the masked man, and the other party was never heard from since.

Now, why is it popping up again?

The other party should know who the Thunderbolt Sect is listening to now in the entire Longbei County.

When they saw Mr. Uyun and reported the matter, Mr. Uyun said nonchalantly, "Then you can go and take a look." ”

"Yes, sir. Wu Qiong responded and set off immediately.

He left Chang'an, returned to Tongzhou Mansion, where the Perak Sect originated, and returned to his own mountain gate.

Previously, because of the Tang Army, the mountain gate of the Perak Sect was destroyed.

But later, after Chang'an City occupied the entire Longbei County, some Perak sect members returned to the former site of Shanmen to rebuild.

Although their focus is now on the side of Chang'an City, the mountain gate will not be able to let go here.

And at this moment, Wu Qiong was at the mountain gate and found the mark.

In the manner agreed between the former boss and the other party, he followed the imprint signal and went to the meeting place in the middle of the night.

When she arrived at the place, she didn't see anyone coming, and Wu Qiong frowned slightly.

But at this moment, his ears suddenly moved slightly, and he heard a sound next to him.

At the moment when Wu Qiong turned his head to look, someone there suddenly flew up, and then hit Wu Qiong with a palm.

Wu Qiong shouted, like thunder, alarming the silent night.

He immediately struck his opponent with a palm, and his palm passed, and the air exploded in a row, like a muffled thunder.

There was a loud "boom", and the palms of both sides collided head-on.

Wu Qiong stood firmly in place, and her figure didn't even shake.

The enemy who attacked him was shocked and took a few steps back before he unloaded his strength.

The black-clothed man's palms were numb, and he trembled slightly uncontrollably.

"It seems that the rumors are true. The man in black let out a sigh of approval.

Wu Qiong looked at the other party coldly: "What rumors?"

"Those who enter Chang'an City will have a leap in cultivation strength, which is far better than before. ”

The man in black said: "Master Wu has reached the realm of flying generals, and the palm technique used is far beyond the inheritance of martial arts of the Thunderbolt Sect, I think it is also because of Chang'an?"

He was also a cultivator of the Fifth Realm, and he fought against Wu Qiong with all his might, but he was defeated by Wu Qiong, who had just broken through to the Fifth Realm.

"Not bad. Wu Qiong looked at the other party: "Who are you?"

The man in black took off the black cloth on his face: "The old man's subordinates have dealt with the former head of your faction before, and the former head of your faction is gone, but the old man still hopes that he can ask Master Wu for a favor?"

"Please. Wu Qiong remained silent.

"The old man wants to ask the head of Wu to act on his behalf and introduce the old man to visit the person who can be in charge of affairs in Chang'an City. The old man said sincerely.

Wu Qiong's heart moved slightly: "Ming people don't say secret words, Your Excellency's master is a certain His Royal Highness in the Eastern Tang Dynasty, right?"

"What Master Wu said is true, although Chang'an and Datang are enemies at the moment, it does not affect His Royal Highness, I hope to talk to the person in charge of Chang'an. ”

The old man said apologetically: "The identity of His Royal Highness of my family, forgive the old man for being inconvenient to perceive at the moment, and please forgive Master Wu." ”

He took out a brocade box and a pocket with him: "These two gifts are not a tribute, one is to compensate the old man for his offense, and the other is to hope that Master Wu will help spread the word or two." ”

"Then go to Chang'an with Wu. Wu Qiongyan said: "To see you or not, it depends on Mr. Wuyun's meaning." ”

"Then thank you Master Wu first. The old man smiled.

Wu Qiong said seriously: "If you are not the only one, it is best to be upright and upright, and don't hide it, otherwise you will anger Chang'an at that time, don't blame Wu for not reminding you in advance, you can't hide it." ”

The old man was silent for a moment, and then said, "This must be, definitely." ”

The two of them went on the road and walked for a while, but before they left the Tongzhou Mansion, suddenly a white cloud fell in the sky.

Bai Yunshang was a middle-aged Taoist priest: "Chief Manager Xing, His Royal Highness has asked Poor Dao to visit Chang'an with you." ”

"It's really good to have a Taoist chief with you, the old man was worried that he was old and confused, and it was difficult to take on a big responsibility. The old man said.

Wu Qiong seemed to be smiling on the side.

In addition to the old man on the other side, there were really other people secretly and quietly following.

He didn't break through the other party's disguise, calmly took the guests on the road, and went to Chang'an.

When he saw Chang'an City, he and the old man both looked serious.

Entering the Tianshu Hall and seeing Mr. Wuyun, the two saluted together:

"Xuanyi Liang Zhen is polite. ”

"Xing Liande, deputy head of the Luhe County Palace, see sir. ”

Mr. Wuyun nodded faintly: "No courtesy." ”

Wu Qiong on the side was secretly frightened.

Since Chang'an grew and the Perak Sect took refuge, Wu Qiong worked hard to adapt to the changes, and exercised that his vision was no longer limited to a single prefecture and a county, but focused on the whole Eastern Tang Dynasty.

Tang Wang's adult sons, even if he doesn't know it, at least he knows it roughly.

King of Luhe County, isn't that the youngest Ninth Highness Li Qiong?

He has always been inconspicuous, but he turned out to be secretly constantly spreading cloth and managing his own power.

The goal, but also the position of the son?

Moreover, he is clearly not a petty fight.

Just looking at the Taoist priest who came to Chang'an with the head of his mansion, he knew that this Ninth Highness was by no means so low-key as he appeared.

Xuanyi is the four famous Taoists of the Eastern Tang Dynasty who are known as Qingyun Temple, Qingfu Palace, and Forget the Truth Temple.
