Long Tianchen pretended not to know the two of them, and he didn't want to explain that he was not the business of Jiuding Dazun, he glanced at Bai Bai and said indifferently: "I want to meditate for a while, during which you can take care of my sister more." Recently, Tiandu City may not be very peaceful, so don't go out if there is nothing important. ”

After speaking, Long Tianchen waited to leave, a little anxious during the day, and hurriedly said: "What if the envoy of the Great Luo Empire comes to entangle again?" ”

Long Tianchen's eyes flashed with murderous intent: "Don't worry! On the Chinese envoy's side, I'll take care of it! ”

Bai Di happened to walk in, he saw the killing intent in Long Tianchen's eyes, and hurriedly said, "Mr. Long! Killing the messenger is equivalent to declaring war, so think twice! ”

"The Great Luo Empire is strong?"

Bai Di was stunned, and seemed to feel a little strange that Long Tianchen asked such a question, but he still said: "The Great Luo Empire is our suzerain, far away from 108,000 miles, and its influence on the Tianyan Dynasty can be said to be very small. How strong is the Great Luo Empire? In fact, the vast majority of people don't know anything! However, the Tianyan Dynasty is only in the corner of the eastern frontier, in addition to the three frontiers of the south and northwest, and the four frontiers of the southeast, the northwest and the four frontiers are called Dajiang, which is only one of the areas ruled by the Daluo Empire! This huge gap in territory is a direct comparison of the strength of the Tianyan Dynasty and the Great Luo Empire! ”

Rao is Long Tianchen has experienced such an unbelievable thing as being reborn, and listening to Bai Di's words at this moment, he still can't help but feel a shock in his heart. If what Bai Di said was true, then this Daluo Empire was definitely a super huge behemoth!

"How many Jiuding masters are there in the Daluo Empire?" Long Tianchen's eyes flashed.

Bai Di seemed to murmur, and said wistfully: "Jiuding master, that's not the point, the reason why the empire calls it an empire is because it has a super Ding master, which is a powerful existence that can slaughter the city and destroy the country with the power of only one person!" ”

Long Tianchen's eyes shrank. Chaoding master, this is the second time he has heard of it, I don't know what kind of realm it is?

Long Yuxuan also became nervous when she heard it, girls were already more sensitive, and things started because of her, so she was inevitably apprehensive in her heart, and she suddenly had a bad premonition in her heart.

"The envoy of the Daluo Empire is handed over to me, and you don't care about it!"

At this moment, Long Tianchen was not only not afraid, but a little looking forward to it! As his cultivation improved, he became more eager for a higher level of existence, and he was not afraid of being strong, because he firmly believed that he would be stronger! Since he has provoked him, even if the Chinese envoy is behind the sky, he will poke the sky into a hole!

Besides, nine times out of ten, the Hua envoy was invited by Ji Jingyun to deal with the Long family, even if he wanted to calm things down, I was afraid that the Hua envoy would not let him go!

As soon as Long Tianchen walked out of the room, a disciple of the Dingzun Hall hurriedly came over, saying that he was summoned by the king and asked him to enter the palace immediately!

Long Tianchen frowned, it seems that Shangguan Ye is really in a hurry, and he will come again and again if he fails to summon him! But it's no wonder that Qi Mo is dead, Jiuding Dazun is one of the seven, and the Tianyan Dynasty is about to face a downgrade situation, so it's no wonder that Shangguan Ye is not in a hurry! Now the only way to ensure that the Tianyan Dynasty is not demoted is only one, that is, to let him "seal the crown" as soon as possible, and then inform the world! In this way, the Tianyan Dynasty is still a seventh-level dynasty!

"Not available! I'm going to retreat and practice, and I won't see anyone! ”

Long Tianchen didn't care whether the Tianyan Dynasty was demoted or not, and once again resisted on the spot. He also ignored the stunned disciple of the Dingzun Palace, and walked straight into the practice meditation room, and as soon as the door was closed, he didn't show up again!

Long Tianchen was in danger because of Long Yuxuan before, and his extreme anger made his true qi in his body agitate, and he forcibly broke through the bottleneck of martial arts. The realm of Jiuding is just around the corner, so he won't cause a lot of trouble in order to see the king, which will lead to missing the best opportunity to cultivate!

"What? Is he in retreat? ”

In the palace, Shangguan Ye's expression was terrifyingly gloomy! Long Tianchen was not seen twice, which made a trace of anger rise in the heart of this king!

Shangguan Hong on the side lowered his eyebrows and pondered for a while, and said, "Your Majesty! The retreat of the Dragon Ding Master is not all bad! ”

Shangguan Ye said with a sad face: "Uncle Wang! It's not like you don't know what's going on! For the sake of the dynasty's relegation, we can only let the Dragon Ding Division seal the Ding, but he is so uncooperative...... Alas! He caused all the troubles, and he was good enough to retreat himself! As soon as the news reaches the Empire, there will be an overseer soon, and then things will be in trouble! ”

Shangguan Hong said: "Even if Master Long Ding is not in retreat now, he is not qualified to seal the Ding, because his cultivation is only the peak of the True Martial Eight Dings!" ”

"What? But—didn't he even kill him? Shangguan Ye was taken aback.

Shangguan Hong smiled bitterly: "The exercises he cultivates are very special, and he also has extremely powerful martial arts, so even if Qi Mo has been in Jiuding for decades and his realm is one level higher, he is still not his opponent!" ”

"How so?"

Shangguan Ye's face, which was not good-looking, suddenly turned a little whiter. If Long Tianchen didn't reach the realm of Jiuding, then don't think about anything, the downgrade of the Tianyan Dynasty is already a sure thing, this is absolutely unacceptable to him!

Shangguan Hong said: "The king is concerned about chaos, in fact, there is no need to worry about this matter!" I found out earlier that the Dragon Ding Master has reached the juncture of breakthrough, and I am just one step away! In this retreat, there is a chance that you will be able to achieve all the results in one fell swoop, and enter the realm of Jiuding smoothly! ”

Shangguan Ye was overjoyed: "Since Uncle Wang said so, it will definitely not be wrong!" Haha-"

Shangguan Hong said with a smile: "As soon as the Dragon Ding Master is out of the customs, the king can prepare to organize the Fengding Event!" If you think about it, we in Dongjiang have not held a grand event for nearly 20 years. Nine tripods, alas! It's really a threshold, stumping the world's warriors. Those martial arts sects, although there are many Jiuding masters, but they are not too keen on sealing the Ding, if it goes on like this, there will be no successor to the Jiuding Dazun! ”

In the end, Shangguan Hong actually sighed with emotion.

Shangguan Ye was silent for a moment, and suddenly frowned: "This won't work, wait for the Longding Master to go out and then organize the Fengding Event, it may be too late!" The Dora Dynasty will never let go of this opportunity, and they will definitely react to the situation to the Empire as soon as possible and submit a demotion paperwork! If the empire sends an envoy to this dynasty first, after confirming the situation, this dynasty will definitely be demoted. Even if we apply to hold a grand event in the future, and then raise the level of the dynasty, it will take too long and there will be many variables, which will be very detrimental to this dynasty! ”

Shangguan Hong is obsessed with martial arts and is not keen on state affairs, what Shangguan Ye said, he didn't quite understand: "Your Majesty! What's downside? ”

"The territory of our Tianyan Dynasty has reached the limit of a seventh-level dynasty, and it has suddenly been reduced to sixth, and according to the dynastic convention, the territory will also be reduced by one-seventh. The Dora Dynasty is ambitious and always wants to annex our territory, so their territory has not reached the limit of the eighth-level dynasty, and when the time comes, the Dora Dynasty will definitely seize this point and openly ask us to cede the territory and cede the subject country, and according to the dynastic covenant, we can't refuse yet! And the other surrounding dynasties also have no strength to compete with the Dora Dynasty at all, once the Dora Dynasty crosses the desert, has a territory on our border, has a vassal country, and does not have the natural barrier of the Great Wilderness Desert, our entire dynasty will become an undefended land, let it fish and meat! ”

The dynastic covenant was actually not formulated by the major dynasties, but was enforced by the Daluo Empire, and its fundamental purpose was to limit the excessive expansion of the dynasty! Empires allow dynasties to annex each other, but never indefinitely, because that could produce a huge dynasty and even threaten the empire, as has happened in history!

And the dynastic covenant completely put an end to this happening! Whether it is a first-level dynasty or a ninth-level dynasty, there is a limit to the maximum territory that each can have, once it touches the bottom line, it can no longer expand externally, otherwise the imperial army will come to the city!

Of course, it is not an absolute limit, and there is a way to continue to expand, so increase the level of the dynasty as much as possible!

It is precisely because of this that the major dynasties attach so much importance to the dynasty level, because it is directly related to the size of the dynasty's territory!

However, there are policies and countermeasures. The dynastic pact tied the hands of the major dynasties, and some ambitious rulers were not willing to stand still, but did not dare to openly rebel against the empire. In the end, some clever people came up with a way to stop expanding according to the convention after the dynasty's territory reached its limit, but constantly invaded the weak country and turned it into their own vassal!

Thus, there were subordinate kingdoms under the dynasty!

But the vassal kingdom is not the real territory of the dynasty after all, and it is impossible to be united, so naturally it will not be able to create any super huge dynasty! Therefore, the empire turned a blind eye to this and acquiesced to the existence of the subsidiary kingdoms, but added an article to the convention: once the kingdom is born as a master of Jiuding, it will immediately gain independence and be directly upgraded to a first-class dynasty, and once the dynasty is downgraded, no matter how many subsidiary kingdoms it had before, half of it will be ceded, and the territory will be reduced accordingly, and other neighboring dynasties will fight for it according to their abilities!

The above is the entangled relationship between the empire, dynasty and kingdom of the Nanzhou continent, although Shangguan Hong never asks about state affairs, but after all, he is from a royal family, and some things are thorough, for Shangguan Ye's worries, he completely understands!

If it is really as Shangguan Ye said, the Tianyan Dynasty is demoted first and then promoted back, then the Doro Dynasty, as an enemy country, will definitely seize the opportunity to propose the cession of territory and subject countries when the Tianyan Dynasty is downgraded to the sixth level. And once it is ceded out, even if the Tianyan Dynasty is promoted back to level seven, it will be impossible to get it back!
