Chapter 5: Subduing the Evil Dragon (3)
Ye Luyun and Ji Huanting looked around the sea and accepted the greetings of each of the reborn Yin Spirits, which was a great achievement, and the anger of hundreds of thousands of Yin Spirits was swept away, not only perfectly fulfilling their promise, but also turning the sea area into a wonderful, peaceful and safe paradise again.
"Wan Ting, when this place is settled, I will bring the Mingyuan clan and let them live in peace, so that we can live the life we want to live without restraint."
Ji Huanting will always remember that wonderful moment Ye Luyun told this, but this is just a beautiful dream of Ye Luyun, this sea area has indeed become a paradise, but the Mingyuan clan did not live a peaceful life immediately.
Zhong Pingyang's appearance made Ye Luyun somewhat surprised, but it didn't change anything, looking at the old man who came by the starlight, he felt an indescribable momentum, quiet and elegant, just like the pine on the fairy mountain, it can be said that he has entered the heavenly realm and left the best impression on him.
As the distance closes, the Yelu cloud in Zhong Pingyang's eyes is getting clearer and clearer, and he can't help but secretly cheer, the sturdy figure is full of heroic spirit, and the wind beast that straddles down is very powerful, and he knows that it is not an ordinary product at a glance, and he is holding a hook and sickle gun in his hand, and the silver gun body is carved with blue water cloud patterns, and the lines are constantly fluctuating, it feels like this small gun body contains thousands of waves, and then look at the left arm, the light vine wrapped around the arm is very dazzling, and the blue flower on the shoulder is crystal clear, setting off the whole body.
"In Xiazhong Pingyang, the current Lord of the Heavenly Court Stargazing Palace." In order to leave a good impression on Yeluyun, Zhong Pingyang went straight to the point and reported his identity.
Yeluyun didn't know what the position of the Lord of the Stargazing Hall was, but by his feelings, he decided that the identity of the person who came was not trivial, and he must be an important figure in the Heavenly Court, and he was pleased that the person who came had a kind attitude, and it was not like he was here to provoke, if he could use the power of this person to reach a meeting with the Heavenly Court, it would be a happy thing.
"Under Jeruyun."
"Your name is like thunder!" Zhong Pingyang smiled, and did not frown coldly because of the name of rebellion, which made Yeluyun feel more relaxed.
"Rebellion and rebellion are not things I can decide."
"Hmm! This is reasonable, and the Heavenly Court has not judged you to be a traitor, after all, this is the Heavenly Realm, and everything needs to be decided by the Heavenly Law, so you don't have to care about these titles until then."
Yeluyun regretted a little, if he had met such a reasonable person earlier, I am afraid that things would not have developed to this point.
Zhong Pingyang smiled, his gaze moved towards the sea below, and asked, "Can you tell me what's going on?"
"The dragon has been subdued by me, the treasure of Zhenhai has returned to the bottom of the sea, this sea of souls has finally been restored to its original appearance, and hundreds of thousands of yin spirits trapped in the sea have been liberated, and they are celebrating rebirth."
Zhong Pingyang's pupils shrank slightly, his gaze moved to the dragon soul in the air, and he exclaimed, "Little brother has completely completed the great feat of Ming Yuantian, it is really gratifying, from now on there will be no more evil dragon disasters in the heavenly court, and the southwest land will finally get peace."
"I hope so."
"Why do you say that?"
Yeluyun glanced at him and said lightly, "My lord is from Heavenly Court, my story must be clear, I don't need to say more, right?"
"The matter of the demons? This news really surprised many people......
Zhong Pingyang didn't say anything, but Ye Luyun had completely understood.
"Actually, I don't care about my own results, I just do what I think I should do."
"Yes! Everyone has a book of heavenly laws in their hearts, but if we want to be socially stable, we need real heavenly laws, and if we violate them, we have to punish them."
Yeluyun shrugged his shoulders and said lightly, "I don't mind being punished, in fact, I hope that when everything is over, the Heavenly Realm can punish me, and it is better to be exiled to the Outer Heaven Island, then I will be satisfied."
"Oh?" This answer surprised Zhong Pingyang, the Outer Heaven Island is a place of demons, and the heavenly people will only be disgusted, and they have never heard of anyone volunteering to go, but Ye Luyun said sincerely, believing that what he said was true, so he was even more curious.
Yeluyun didn't want to reveal anything more, so he changed his words and said with a smile: "I hope to leave peace and a future for the Mingyuan clan."
"Mingyuan clan?"
"Well, I changed the name, these three words seem to be more appropriate, if the great Mingyuan day, they are the native life, so they are qualified to be called the Mingyuan clan, we are all outsiders, but we just claim to be orthodox."
Zhong Pingyang didn't speak, just listened quietly, these words gave him a deeper understanding of Yeluyun, the young man in front of him was not as heinous as in the report, these words were clearly organized, the arguments were clear, they must be the result of careful consideration, whether they agreed with it or not, they could not force him to change his thinking.
"I hope that Heavenly Court will lend this area of the southwest to the Mingyuan Clan so that they can survive, I don't think they will pose any threat to Heavenly Court, and at the same time, they will be able to show Heavenly Court's kindness."
"You go on, say everything you want to say, although I can't decide for Heavenly Court, I can convey it for you."
Yeluyun was also not polite, and told the expected Mingyuan clan in detail about the future, Zhong Pingyang did not express any opinions, just nodded or shook his head, and kept the arguments in his heart one by one.
After a long talk, although Yeluyun and Zhong Pingyang did not reach any agreement on the affairs of the demon clan, they were already friends in the personal aspect, Yeluyun was cheerful and upright and Lotte made Zhong Pingyang like it very much, and Zhong Pingyang's kindness and kindness also made Yeluyun have an object that he could spit out his heart's wishes.
By the sea, Zhi Wuyang and Qingjun looked at the sky in a daze, although the distance was far away, they also felt that the atmosphere was becoming more and more harmonious, Zhong Pingyang had no intention of arresting people at all, and Ye Luyun had no intention of escaping.
It has always been regarded as a frontier land, the Soul Sea, due to the defeat of the evil dragon, the pattern of thousands of years has been completely broken, and hundreds of thousands of yin souls have been liberated.
At the same time, Nanxiangcheng also has a major historical event, known as the "Heavenly Emperor Absed", and the protagonists are naturally the Bird Ning of the Southern Regions and the Heavenly Emperor of the Lord of the Ming Yuan Heaven.
The land of southern Xinjiang, this year seems to be the year of the catastrophe, the demon army invaded, the demon clan besieged, and as the capital of the Nanxiang City, it is also frequently recorded in history, the crisis of war has made this ancient city fall into a tense state of war readiness, both men and women in the city are ready to fight at any time, and the heralds everywhere continue to fly in the sky, send the latest information here, and then to the heavenly court, and the calm atmosphere is not visible to the naked eye under the tension.
No one knew when the demon army would come, but they all knew that the city defense was insufficient and the soldiers were scarce, so they only hoped that Heavenly Court could send more reinforcements to come, and at this moment they ushered in the most noble person in Ming Yuantian.
The Emperor of Heaven does not often patrol the four frontiers, basically once in a hundred years, the residents of Nanxiang City have never seen the Emperor of Heaven in the past few decades, so when the Emperor of Heaven led the powerful power of Heavenly Court into the city, it immediately caused a huge sudden movement, and the streets were full of spectators, all of whom looked up in unison, excitedly watching the Emperor of Heaven enter the airspace of Nanxiang City from the far north Heavenly Court.
Every time the Emperor of Heaven travels is unprecedented, but this time it is a little discolored, the defeat of the war in the east has turned this patrol into redemption, and the atmosphere inside and outside the city is very tense, if it is not for the Emperor of Heaven to take charge himself, I am afraid that it will have become a pot of porridge long ago.
After experiencing the tense atmosphere of the war, people's nerves also became keen, and when they saw the Emperor of Heaven, they saw hope, and the whole city underwent drastic changes with the arrival of the Emperor of Heaven, and the decision of the Emperor of Heaven to personally sit in southern Xinjiang undoubtedly boosted the confidence of the army and the people, and the fighting spirit was unprecedentedly high, and the original gloomy atmosphere was also swept away, replaced by a thriving and prosperous scene.
At such a moment, no one would pay attention to the southwest border thousands of miles away, let alone know that the powerful evil dragon was defeated by Ye Luyun's hands and became Ji Huanting's mount, nor did they realize that Zhong Pingyang's water movement omen would come true, and there would be major changes to the pattern of the entire Ming Yuantian, this time their eyes were only on the demon army.
The war has baptized the entire southern Xinjiang, and the people who have been living in a peaceful world have finally come to their senses, even if they live in the heavenly realm, they may not be able to die well, and threats will appear at any time.
I have to know the news of the Emperor's personal conquest, and at the same time get the assistance of some reinforcements from the Heavenly Court, although the battle on the southwest front line is tight, the situation has been much better, and the morale has also been boosted, Nanxiang Que Ning took advantage of the war to slow down and immediately rushed back to Nanxiang City to meet the Emperor of Heaven, but her purpose was not to welcome the arrival of the Emperor, but to ask for reinforcements.
"Nanxiang, it's been a long time!"
The Emperor of Heaven smiled and looked at the beautiful figure who slowly got up, Ming Yuantian's system is a division of territory, each of the four phases is in charge of one place, and the Heavenly Court is in charge of the four phases, so the four phases are busy with local affairs, and there are not many opportunities to go to the Heavenly Court, and as the Emperor of Heaven, he rarely goes out on patrol.
"See Your Majesty!"
Although Que Ning hurriedly fought hard, and rushed back to the city in the dust, her demeanor was still charming, she saluted respectfully, her eyes swept left and right, and the masters of the heavenly court came two-thirds, it can be said that she made a big move, but she was not satisfied, the battle ahead is not something that one or two masters can explain, what is needed is the number of people in the absolute sense. The Emperor of Heaven was like an outsider, and he asked about the war in southern Xinjiang as soon as he opened his mouth.
"Lord Nansang, how is the battle on the front line?"
"The demon army is large, there are too many people, and it is constantly increasing its troops, although our army is struggling to resist, but the numerical disadvantage always exists, and it is not easy to defend it until now."
A civil official flashed next to him and asked curiously, "Don't you have the strength to give them a heavy blow?"
Que Ning recognized that it was Xu Zhe, the superintendent of the Heavenly Book Division, and a wry smile appeared on her beautiful cheeks, and she sighed faintly: "The Heavenly Generals and Heavenly Commanders have all fought hard, and they have dealt heavy blows to the enemy more than once, but the number is too much, and if you kill a batch, you will immediately make up for another batch, just like the water of a great river, it will always be rushing, and the soldiers' fighting spirit will be hit, and the casualties will be more and more."
"This is also the reason for the defeat on the Eastern Front?" This time it was Liu Yang, the Heavenly General of the Zichen Palace, who spoke.
"Of course, if the number of people was close, the demon army would have been killed a long time ago."
All the officials gasped, the defeat on the Eastern Front must be due to the number of people, the population of Ming Yuantian is not small, but the martial arts practitioners are only about thirty percent, and the other "Heavenly Book" has nothing to do with the battle, these people may be able to join the battle, but not now, they must be trained more professionally, compared to the number sent by the demon army this time is as large as ants.
The Emperor of Heaven only has one feeling at the moment, the pace of the Heavenly Court is too slow, and it can't keep up with the changes in the situation at all, if the army of the whole territory is suppressed at the beginning of the invasion of the demon army, there will be no today's chaos, the defeat in the east is undoubtedly the best example, the demon is like a huge plague, it is very likely to attack the entire Mingyuan Heaven, maybe the heavenly man can finally defeat the demon, but whether he can avoid the huge damage of the plague is another matter.
Bird's beautiful eyes scanned the many colleagues in the room, and after experiencing the cruel battlefield, she suddenly felt a little strange, the supreme heavenly court was so lifeless, even when she heard the battle situation ahead, it showed a gloomy side, and she did not make the momentum and courage of the leader class at all, which made her slightly disappointed.
The air was filled with nervous particles, the general was like fire, and was immediately ignited, and his whole body was full of fighting spirit, but in Que Ning's opinion, these generals who have been in the heavenly court for a long time only have courage and no strategy, and the offensive of the demon army in the second place is not a desperate word that can be solved, more importantly, the slow reaction of the heavenly court, even the emperor of heaven has arrived in Nanxiang City, and the soldiers of the western and northern frontiers still don't know where they are, this is simply a ridiculous thing, and the disadvantages of each other's policies are completely manifested.
"Your Majesty, the ministers came from the front line to know when reinforcements would arrive, and the front line is almost overwhelmed."
"All the soldiers of the Heavenly Court have come to ......."
"Your Majesty is asking about the soldiers of the Western Xinjiang and Northern Frontier, the rescue messengers have already been dispatched, and they must have arrived, I don't know when they will send troops?"
Bird Ning showed a very different momentum from her beautiful appearance, the aggressive tone revealed toughness and sharpness, but even more surprising was the object of questioning, in this hierarchical world, this is undoubtedly a challenge from the inferior to the superior, like a phoenix bathing in fire, beautiful and moving, but also with blazing power to force anyone who approaches.
The Emperor of Heaven was not angry, his expression was light, reaching such a position can be said to be incomparably honored, except for entering the Immortal Realm or ascending to a higher level of the Celestial Realm to become the Celestial Realm, there is nothing that needs to be obtained, and the Celestial Beings are a race that dilutes personal desires, even if characters like Zhi Wuyang have inferior costs, it does not mean that he has too much pursuit of power.
"Lord Nanxiang, Heavenly Court has done its best to assist Southern Xinjiang, and it is really inappropriate for you to question Your Majesty like this."
Que Ning glanced at it lightly, recognized Mi Jingbo, the general of Zichen Palace, and with a slight pouting of his red lips, he retorted: "I'm just asking for the soldiers in Southern Xinjiang, they are not fighting for themselves, but for Ming Yuantian, don't they have this qualification?"
Mi Jingbo was stunned, and said in a deep voice: "Reinforcements are being arranged everywhere, why should your lord be so anxious, doesn't the Emperor of Heaven personally sit in southern Xinjiang already explain everything?"
"I'm asking when it will arrive, the front in southern Xinjiang is a rout, so you have no choice but to go home."
Que Ning's sassy and heroic appearance is unacceptable to many important ministers of the Heavenly Court, everyone has the same status, and they are also coming to this city for the war in southern Xinjiang, this argument is undoubtedly a kind of provocation, in this area of strict heavenly law, this can be said to be a "great disrespect" sin, but Que Ning did not intend to compromise, his eyes were as tough as a heavenly stone.
"You don't have to remind me of my responsibility, I didn't come back to see Lord Heavenly Emperor this time to take responsibility, it was after the end of the war, I am asking about reinforcements on behalf of all the soldiers on the front line, otherwise I won't be able to answer their questions when I go back - why hasn't Heavenly Court made a bigger move for a long time?"
The question and the voice became more and more sharp, daring to be so presumptuous in front of the Emperor of Heaven is the only one who has a beautiful heart, a heroic heart.
Many people were moved by her passion, but the charge of colliding with the Emperor of Heaven was against the laws of Heaven after all, and no one dared to interject indiscriminately, just waiting for the Emperor's order.
The Heavenly Emperor did not respond, he was as calm as the water of the abyss, and walked slowly to the door to look at the sky, the bright stars seemed to be no different from before, but he remembered Zhong Pingyang's words - "The middle palace is displaced".
"Que Ning, how about you come to be this Heavenly Emperor?"
Bird Ning was taken aback, she came here for the war, and there was no personal selfishness, and the Emperor of Heaven responded like this, which greatly surprised her, and she stood still and did not move.
The Heavenly Emperor suppressed the voices of the others, looked back at the birds, and said word by word: "Zhong Pingyang's stargazing phenomenon says that the stars show that there is a sign of the displacement of the middle palace, and the stars fall in the southern frontier, and the main middle palace moves south......
Que Ning hurriedly fell to the ground and said respectfully: "The subordinates are not qualified enough, and they are already beyond the power to do this Nanxiang, otherwise they would not have made a rebellion with the demon soldiers, shaking the foundation of the heavenly realm, and the subordinates will not escape the heavy blame, and they only hope to destroy the demon army with their own hands."
The others also agreed, and they all agreed that the position of the Heavenly Emperor should not be abandoned, otherwise the Heavenly Realm would be in turmoil, and the momentum of the demon army would be even more difficult to stop.
Although the dispute was temporarily resolved, the atmosphere did not return to normal, and the huge sensation caused by the Emperor's initiative to abdicate and make Xian impossible to get news in an instant, and almost all of them had complicated thoughts left in their hearts, and no one cared about the war.
Bird Ning retreated to the corridor outside the house, raised his head and looked at the stars in the sky, although the Mingyuan Heavenly Realm is as strong as a cloud, but there are only a handful of people who can really take on the big responsibility, and the vast majority of talents can only exert their strength in peacetime, and they are definitely not suitable for war at the moment.
What is the way out for Ming Yuantian? Even if the Emperor of Heaven is changed, it will be useless if he does not change this situation.
