Half a month passed quietly.

Just after the war between the two empires ended with the complete defeat of the Star Luo Empire, the Douluo Continent seemed to have returned to its previous calm.

It should be said that the current Douluo Continent is even calmer than before.

Because the Heaven Dou Empire now seems to have completely severed ties with the Martial Spirit Hall and the Star Luo Empire, the continent-wide Soul Master Advanced Competition, which was originally held once every five years, has no intention of continuing in a short period of time after the war is over.

After all, the two empires only fought not long ago, and they almost knocked out all the dog's brains, and it was impossible to get back together so easily and hold the continent-wide soul master high-level competition.

Even if either side of the two empires suddenly pretended to be kind and proposed to continue to hold the continent-wide soul master high-level competition, it is estimated that the other side would wonder if there was any conspiracy involved......

For example, under the pretext of continuing to hold the competition, the army was dispatched and the domestic powerhouses quietly set up ambushes, and deceived the genius soul masters of the enemy country to kill them all.

However, although there has been no major incident in the Douluo Continent for half a month.

But the people of the two empires are still talking about the war between the two empires, and Lu Yuan's reputation has replaced the three famous generals of the Star Luo Empire, shocking the entire continent.

Legend has it that Lu Yuan has the ability to use Contra Douluo's cultivation as a powerful opponent of Title Douluo without falling behind, a wide range of spatial teleportation capabilities, a movement speed of thousands of miles, the magic power of turning wood into iron, the ever-changing ability, and the means of sprinkling beans into soldiers......

The first few are good to say, although they sound a little too incredible and counterintuitive, but they are indeed something that Lu Yuan can do.

But the ever-changing and sprinkling beans into soldiers in the back are also spreading more and more outrageously, and they are really more and more mysterious.

For example, even Lu Yuan's birth was rumored to be a "vision at birth", for example, one of the most widely circulated versions is that Lu Yuan was born when "the sky and the earth changed color, the wind and clouds changed abruptly, the originally clear sky suddenly changed to blue, red, and gold, and when his mother gave birth, blood was all over the sky, and he heard the whispers of ghosts and gods".

Even Lu Yuan's ordinary background was questioned, and the people of the Heaven Dou Empire didn't think that with Lu Qing's status as an ordinary person, they could give birth to a child with such a powerful talent.

So I fabricated a rumored version, that is, Lu Yuan was not Lu Qing's biological son, it was the god of killing in the god realm who favored Mana, so he gave birth to Lu Yuan, and Lu Yuan's real identity was the son of the god of killing.

This is really getting more and more nonsense, not to mention that Lu Yuan's biological father Lu Qing was cuckolded by some killing god in vain, let's first talk about why Mana, a peasant woman, was favored by the gods in heaven and gave birth to a child.

From a secular aesthetic point of view, Manna is just a peasant woman with a simple appearance and a slightly sturdy figure.

Not to mention that Mana has been an ordinary person since she was a child, engaged in farming all day long, exposed to the sun and rain, even if she is a yellow flower girl, she will be boiled into a yellow-faced woman.

Although Lu Yuan's status has risen in recent years, he has begun to enjoy a leisurely aristocratic life, but he has the luxury of being like a rich wife.

But after all, she is not a beautiful woman with a beautiful face who can get the eyes of the gods in the sky.

And the identity of the son of the god of killing is too low-grade, Lu Yuan remembered that the god of killing should only be the subordinate of the god Shura, not as good as the first-level god, and was even killed by the protagonist in the plot of another book.

But folk rumors say that this thing is spread by the will of the person concerned, unless the reign of terror is carried out and the literal prison is carried out.

Lu Yuan was also a little helpless and didn't take it seriously.

But overall, these rumors are positive for Lu Yuan's propaganda no matter what.

Of course, Lu Yuan is the opposite image in the Star Luo Empire, not only is his appearance exaggerated and ugly, but his background is ...... This seems to be similar to that of the Heaven Dou Empire, but the birth vision was said by the Star Luo Empire to be the "demon of the world".

After all, his hero and my thief, Lu Yuan's name has even become a means for adults to scare children among the people of the Star Luo Empire.

In fact, none of this mattered to Lu Yuan, in addition to cultivating during this time, he was strengthening the defenses of the Seven Treasure Colored Glass Sect, and at the same time, he was ......

Fight with the Emperor of the Snowy Night.

The Snow Night Emperor seems to know that his lifespan is not even two years, so he especially wants to let Qian Ling Xue and Lu Qingqing get married this year, so as to stabilize Qian Ling Xue's position.

However, after Lu Yuan refused at the last night banquet under the pretext of Lu Qingmana, he summoned Lu Qingmana to the palace for daily chatting.

Lu Qing is not a country farmer who can be tricked casually, in the face of the meaning of the Snow Night Emperor, he just said that this is a matter for children, they have also grown up, let them decide for themselves.

He also heard the reward that the Snowy Night Emperor had given to Lu Yuan before, and knew that the Snowy Night Emperor had felt sorry for his son.

So Lu Qing didn't give the Snow Night Emperor any face, and kept shirking the skin.

Lu Yuan was also happy, and while he was idle, he invited a few people from the former Tiandou Royal Academy to come out for tea and enjoy the extravagant aristocratic life.

One of the busiest hotels on Emperor Street.

In addition to Lu Yuan and Ning Rongrong, Lu Qingqing, the Shi family brothers, Yan Zhuyin, and even Dugu Yan, who had not appeared for a long time, also gathered in the private room at this time.

"Boss, why are you so idle today?" Graphite asked with some surprise.

Lu Yuan gave him a blank look, "What?" You're all so idle, am I just born to be busy? I've been busy for so long and can't enjoy it? ”

"Boss, aren't you that kind of person? After all, he is a powerful general who has mastered the two elite armies of the Celestial Shadow Army and the Royal Knights. Shi Mo said with a smile, "It's definitely a lot busier than us little commanders." ”

"If you want to talk about you, there is no difference, you are all busy people, not as good as me...... I'm the one who really has nothing to do. Dugu Yan said with a smile.

At the same time, she handed the empty teacup in her hand to Lu Yuan, raised her eyebrows, and said jokingly, "General Celestial Shadow, can you pour me a cup of tea for this little woman." ”

Lu Yuan was helpless, and he didn't hold the shelf, he directly picked up the teapot next to him and poured tea for Dugu Yan, "Senior sister, it's okay for you to pour like this, stay away from these mundane things." ”

"It's not just about that, but I wanted to go to the battlefield to defend the country like you." Dugu Yan chuckled lightly and said, "After all, even Zhu Yin and Rong Rong have gone to the battlefield, can I go up?" ”

She hugged Yan Zhuyin beside her, with a playful expression.

Yan Zhuyin's face turned red suddenly, but she didn't mind Dugu Yan's actions.

"Yanyan, you didn't say it earlier." Ning Rongrong suddenly smiled and said, "Last time, I said that you would be allowed to join my Celestial Shadow Army to play." ”

"Haha forget it, I'm just talking, not to mention that it's not to the point where a weak woman like me, who is not high in cultivation and doesn't understand military law, goes to the battlefield." Dugu Yan said with a smile, "Generally speaking, the serious place of the army is not suitable for me. ”

"By the way, it is said that ...... recently" She looked at Lu Qingqing beside Lu Yuan and said, "Your Majesty wants Qingqing to marry the prince as soon as possible?" ”

Lu Qingqing nodded, "They do have such a meaning, but ......"

She affectionately pulled Lu Yuan's arm and said with a smile, "That emperor Lao'er didn't know what to do before, and he was jealous and hated Zhongxian, so he treated my brother like that, so I didn't obey their wishes!" ”

Dugu Yan was suddenly very helpless, she glanced at Lu Yuan, and then at Lu Qingqing.

Then she asked, "Qingqing, are you here with the prince for your brother...... I thought you really liked the prince. ”

"Anyway, who to marry is not to marry, what does it matter if you really like it or not, but my blood relationship with my brother is indissolvable." Lu Qingqing pretended not to care and said.

Only she knows that the prince "Xue Qinghe" is just a man pretended to be a woman, and she can not care about it.

Dugu Yan shook his head, and then his face suddenly became serious, and he suddenly said to the people in front of him, "I'll tell you something......

"Don't tell outsiders lightly."

Suddenly, Lu Yuan, Ning Rongrong and the others were curious and nervous.

Yan Zhuyin frowned at this time, she shook her head and said, "Yan Yan, if you think that this matter should not be known to too many people, you don't say it's the best. ”

Dugu Yan glanced at her and said helplessly, "Aren't I worried about you?" After all, what I'm going to talk about is a very big deal for everyone. ”

"I'm just asking you not to tell anyone about it, it's not a top secret." After speaking, she said directly with a serious face, "This matter is actually about Your Majesty today, isn't he very anxious about Qingqing's marriage with the crown prince?" ”

"That's because his situation is no longer optimistic." Dugu Yan said.

Hearing what she said, the faces of everyone present suddenly changed.

Even Lu Yuan, like everyone, pretended to be very surprised.

"My grandfather said......" Dugu Yan was about to continue, and at this moment......

"Get out of the way!" Suddenly, a rapid sound of horses' hooves sounded outside the street, interrupting Dugu Yan's words.

She frowned, just as she was about to ignore it and continue.

The sound of horses' hooves outside carried the man's loud proclaim, "Do what your majesty orders!" Pedestrians avoid! Violators will be executed! ”

Hearing this, Dugu Yan was stunned for a moment, and walked outside with some curiosity.

Lu Yuan and the others also walked to the balcony with her and looked at the scene on the street.

Running, dusty.

The pedestrians walking on the road hurriedly dispersed to dodge, and for a time the originally wide street was full of chickens and dogs.

I saw dozens of knights in well-armored armor, as if they were in a hurry and ran outside.

And the pedestrians also saw their clothes and hurriedly avoided them.

Because......

Most of these knights were dressed in the clothes of the Royal Praetorian Guard.

The Imperial Praetorian Guard is the core warrior of the Heaven Dou Empire's royal family, and each one has been carefully selected.

Those above the level of squad leader are all composed of soul masters.

For the Heaven Dou Empire, where the number of soul masters was not very large, this was definitely the elite of the elite.

The Royal Praetorian Guard is responsible for protecting the members of the royal family and the safety of the court, unless it is to the point of imminent extinction, otherwise the Royal Janissary generally does not appear on the battlefield of foreign wars.

And now what they say about acting on the orders of His Majesty should be true.

Dugu Yan's face changed even more, because she had seen these royal guards, especially the one who was the leader, was even more familiar.

She also immediately knew what these knights of the Royal Praetorian Guard were doing.

"Something is wrong." Dugu Yan suddenly said in a deep voice.

"Senior sister, what is the matter? Do you know? Lu Yuan frowned and asked curiously.

Dugu Yan whispered to the ears of Lu Yuan, Ning Rongrong and the other six people with soul power transmission, and said, "They are the royal guards beside His Majesty, and the one headed is the captain of the Janissary Squad, and they went out of the city to find my grandfather!" ”

It's no wonder that she is so cautious, just because this matter involves the Snowy Night Emperor, she has to be cautious.

"And Your Majesty looks for my grandfather, and every time he is about to be poisoned."

"Poison hair?" It was the first time that Graphite Stone Mill, Ning Rongrong, and Yan Zhuyin heard about the poisoning of the Snow Night Emperor, and their faces were immediately full of surprise.

"This is what I want to tell you, Your Majesty has been poisoned for a long time, and the situation is not optimistic." Dugu Yan said in a low voice, "My grandfather said that now the situation of the Snowy Night Emperor has reached the point where it is out of control, and his method of curing poison is at most suppressed for a while, and it cannot be completely eradicated, and the situation will become more and more serious." ”

"Even Poison Douluo can't completely eradicate ......," Graphite Stone Mill and the others sighed in disbelief.

You must know that it is Poison Douluo, the person who knows most about poison in the whole continent, he dares to say that no one dares to say that he is the second, the first, the Title Douluo with the title of poison!

But even he couldn't help it, how powerful this poison was.

What they don't know is that the mixed toxin that Qianyue gave to the Snow Night Emperor is equivalent to a difficult problem that no one has an answer to, and there is no way to detoxify it, so what can Dugu Bo do?

"And the last time my grandfather helped the Snow Night Emperor suppress the toxin, he already said that maybe next time, or even next time, he will no longer be able to suppress the toxin, and the Snow Night Emperor will also die of poison on the spot!" Dugu Yan said in a low voice.

"Doesn't that mean......" Graphite Stone Mill and the others suddenly chuckled in their hearts......

"Hmm...... The last time my grandfather said next time, that is, this time, so now His Majesty may die at any time. Dugu Yan said in a deep voice.

Lu Yuan said in a low voice, "I see, ......"

In the original plot, when the Snow Night Emperor was about to die, it was the time when the Thousand Thousand Snow Palaces changed......

However, in the original plot, there was a soul hunting operation first, and then there was a change in the palace.

But if you think about it carefully, maybe it's his butterfly that crosses, causing the butterfly effect?

In this case, it is possible that today it will be ......

It's time for real change!

Lu Yuan immediately got up and said to Ning Rongrong, "Rongrong! Let's go back to the sect and inform Dad that we're ready to raise troops to defend the palace! ”

Ning Rongrong was stunned for a moment, then she also understood, and nodded, "Indeed, at this time, you must go back to defend the palace!" ”

When the emperor died, it was necessary to prepare to prevent any accidents in the palace.

Then she looked at Graphite Stone Mill and Yan Zhuyin, and said, "Graphite, Stone Mill, Zhu Yin, you should also go back and inform your family as soon as possible, and prepare to defend the palace and prevent small troubles!" ”

"Good!" Yan Zhuyin also knew that the situation was serious, so he hurriedly got up and went home.

The graphite stone mill also arched his hand, and said gratefully to Dugu Yan, "Sister Yanyan! Thank you for letting us know. ”

He arched his hand to Lu Yuan and Ning Rongrong again, "Boss, Rongrong, let's go back first!" ”

Subsequently, the Shi brothers also walked back to the Xuanwu Mansion.
