The huge night pearl illuminated the tunnel, Li Yunyang stood at the entrance of the cave, and reminded loudly: "Senior, please stay away from the entrance of the cave, I'm going down." ”

The old man in the cave heard Li Yunyang's voice and muttered a few times, as if complaining that Li Yunyang had disturbed his dream, and after a long while, he heard the sound of chains moving from below.

After Li Yunyang jumped into the cave, he saw that the old man was looking at him with a yawn, and there was a faint look of dissatisfaction in his eyes, he hurriedly took out the wine and food from the space ring and said, "Senior, I am really sorry that I can't bring you wine and food these days." ”

However, the old man didn't answer Li Yunyang's meaning, but when he saw him take the wine and food out, he didn't be polite to him, and directly opened the mud of a jar of wine and drank it in a big gulp.

It wasn't until he drank three jars of wine in a row that the old man burped, looked at Li Yunyang with sleepy eyes, and asked, "Boy, why are you here again? Is there anyone following you? If the old man's whereabouts are exposed, even if the old man's cultivation is lost, there is absolutely no problem in pulling you to accompany you to the funeral!"

Li Yunyang didn't take the old man's threat to heart, he patiently explained: "Senior, please rest assured, Fort Arte is now under my rule, and I don't think anyone in the castle dares to follow me, and you should be able to see that although my strength is not too strong, I will not be followed without knowing it." ”

This unidentified old man seems to know how to break through the bottleneck of black fighting spirit, in order to improve his own strength, so Li Yunyang is also very polite to him.

But the old man picked up a jar of wine again, but this time he didn't drink heavily, just drank it slowly, and when the jar of wine was drunk, he glanced at Li Yunyang and said: "Nothing to be courteous, either a traitor or a thief, I know that you kid wants to learn the method of breaking through the critical value of black vindictive energy, but I have sworn that I will never talk about anything related to it for the rest of my life, so don't waste your thoughts." ”

Even though the old man drank the wine sent by Li Yunyang and ate the dishes he carefully prepared, he still didn't give Li Yunyang face at all, and wanted him to quickly dispel the thoughts in his heart.

And Li Yunyang also knows that old-timers like the old man who have a perverse personality and don't seem to be able to eat oil and salt are actually the most susceptible to the influence of water milling.

Even if the old man is saying it very well now, as long as it takes time and soaks it down, there is nothing that Li Yunyang can't ask about what he wants to know.

This kind of thing can't be rushed, so Li Yunyang didn't ask anything more, he came to Fort Arte this time mainly to see the situation in Fort Art, and by the way, he came to the old man to try his luck.

Before leaving, Li Yunyang thought about it, and told him about the king's private reward for finding the old man, after all, he could be listed as a task of the same level as the assassination of the king's own brother, which also showed that the identity of the old man was not simple.

How do you know that the old man looked at Li Yunyang with a disdainful smile and said, "You kid are planning to talk to me again?" Not to mention that the king of the Xingyao Empire wants to find me, across half a continent, almost every king of the empire wants to know where I am!"

As soon as these words came out, Li Yunyang was suddenly a little shocked, if what the old man said was true, I am afraid that before his cultivation was lost, he was also a master of the famous continent.

It's just that the old man was very vigilant, and after just saying this, he knew that he had lost his words, so he didn't say any more, urging Li Yunyang to leave quickly.

Li Yunyang didn't bother much, and told the old man that he might not come over for a long time, and after bringing him some dry food, Li Yunyang left the underground cave.

Back on the ground, Li Yunyang immediately asked Wager to order the kitchen to make several large tables of dishes, and made countless dry foods of all kinds, and after distributing half of them to the old man, all the rest were placed in the space ring.

"Varger, do you know that in recent decades, have there been any masters who have been famous in the Star Empire and even other continents, but have suddenly disappeared?"

If he could find out the identity of the old man, Li Yunyang would be able to quickly find a breakthrough from him and obtain a way to break through his fighting spirit, so he asked Wager according to the words in the old man's mouth.

However, Wagle was a little embarrassed and said: "Lord Allen, I have been familiar with military books since I was a child, in addition to cultivating martial arts, and I am really not interested in this kind of thing, so I ......"

"It's okay, you don't have to blame yourself, I just asked casually. ”

Li Yunyang stopped Wagger's words of apology, and turned to get down to business: "Wagger, in the future, I will temporarily leave the affairs of Atburgh to you to take care of. You don't need to make any big achievements, as long as you don't make big mistakes, I will be rewarded when I come back, and I will send someone to keep an eye on Herris in private, and if he makes any changes, you can adapt according to the situation. ”

Failed to get the answer he wanted here in Wagger, Li Yunyang was not disappointed, anyway, since the old man belonged to the kind of person who was in the Megatron Continent before, he only needed to find a person who was familiar with the history of the continent and all kinds of rumors to be able to analyze his identity.

And the most important question now is just whether Herris can settle down, if he dares to rely on his own wisdom and unscrupulously do something beyond Li Yunyang's bottom line, Li Yunyang doesn't mind directly removing this hidden danger.

"Yes, my subordinates understand. Although Wagle didn't know what Herris had done to make Li Yunyang angry, as long as it was Li Yunyang's order, he would carry it out unconditionally.

Li Yunyang handled some government affairs in Fort Art, so he rested here for a night, and early the next morning, he rode a flying demonic beast and flew in the direction of the west of Fort Art.

The Gray Forest Plain, this is Li Yunyang's destination this time, and it is also the name of the territory in the hands of the elder brother of the king.

It is said that this area is rich in a pure gray wood, which is as hard as iron and does not penetrate water or fire, and is the material of choice for city gates and other ordnance installations.

However, the Gray Forest Plain was located in the west, almost at the edge of the Star Empire, and Li Yunyang rode a flying demonic beast and flew for more than six days before flying to the border of this place.

After arriving at the Gray Forest Plain, Li Yunyang immediately raised the height of the flying demonic beast to avoid being discovered by the defenders in the territory, after all, what he did this time was to go deep behind the enemy to assassinate him, if the enemy was alerted, the task would not be easy to do.

Although Li Yunyang still has some rejection of this task in his heart, but now his identity and status are not enough to challenge a behemoth like the empire, temporary forbearance is still necessary, anyway, it is the people of their royal family who want to kill, and Li Yunyang has no psychological burden.

And Li Yunyang is not worried, after he does this, he will be directly betrayed by His Majesty the king as a black cauldron, no matter what, this is also an order issued by the king, if he really dares to do that, it will be a big deal when the fish dies and the net will be broken.

According to Li Yunyang's speculation, it is estimated that after the death of the elder brother of the king, there will probably be rumors that he died of illness, and perhaps some gossip will be directed at him.

However, this is also an innocuous trivial matter, as long as he is pulled out by the king and directly carries the black pot, even if he offends some nobles who stand on the side of the brother of the king, it is nothing to Li Yunyang. Anyway, he has already offended one, and if he offends again, how high can his status be?

However, he can use this rumor to increase Li Yunyang's influence and increase his deterrence ability against other territories. Since it was rumored that he had killed the elder brother of the king, and instead of being punished, he accepted the title and the new seal of the territory from the king, it was enough to put some people to rest in peace.

The pros and cons of this matter, when Li Yunyang was on the road, had already analyzed it clearly, after all, the territory under his command had not yet been officially recognized by the empire.

Even if he obtained the territory in a manner that was in accordance with the laws of the Empire, without the new seal and documents given by His Majesty the King, it would have caused merchants from other territories to dare not come to his territory to do business, thus restricting the development of the small town of Parvas and Fort Arte.

It took another whole day to fly Li Yunyang from the border of the Gray Forest Plain to the capital of the Gray Forest Plain.

However, Li Yunyang did not fly directly into the castle, the target of the key flying demonic beast was too big, and there was still a lot of movement when it flew, even at night, he could not sneak in on the flying demonic beast.

Finding a hidden place, Li Yunyang got down from the back of the flying demonic beast and let it forage near the castle, pay attention to the hidden tracks, and wait for his summons at any time.

At the same time, Li Yunyang changed his clothes, stuck two mustaches, and on his ten fingers, all of them wore gemstone rings scavenged from Watson Gill.

Li Yunyang, who was dressed in jewels, put his hands behind his back, and deliberately held his head high when he walked, as if he had become a lively nouveau riche in the blink of an eye.

Walking on the official road, Li Yunyang saw the target, stopped a convoy of businessmen, and after throwing out hundreds of gold coins, the president of the Chamber of Commerce, who originally planned to let Li Yunyang show something that could prove his identity, immediately welcomed him to the carriage as a guest.

After staggering in the carriage and walking for about half an hour, the convoy finally arrived at the gate of Grey Grove Castle, and was waiting in line to enter the city.

Li Yunyang opened the curtain from the small window on the side of the carriage and carefully observed the terrain of Gray Grove Castle in case of emergency.

As the convoy slowly moved forward, when Li Yunyang's carriage reached the city gate, suddenly the curtain of the carriage was directly opened, and a city gate guard holding a long sword stared at Li Yunyang coldly and said: "Your Excellency, please show your customs clearance guide, or something that can prove your identity, otherwise I will arrest you and put you in prison in the name of an assassin!"
