Chapter 60: The Complexity of the Situation
"Why don't you continue?"
Facing the old man's somewhat depressed inquiry, Lin Xiu said lightly, "I can't kill you if I continue, since that's the case, why bother?"
The old man's face was slightly sluggish, his eyes were full of puzzlement, he glanced at the big man beside Pei Yuheng, and said in a deep voice, "Add him, it may not be!"
The corners of Lin Xiu's mouth raised a slight arc, but he didn't continue to speak, the old man's eyes flickered, and he didn't know what he was thinking in his heart.
The eyes of the people around Pei Yuheng were also full of shocks that had not completely disappeared, the fire dragon that Lin Xiu had caused a great impact to him, as a member of the Lingxu clan, although he failed to devour demons and gather spirits, he did not lose the method of gathering spirits, he knew very well that even if he completed the process of gathering spirits, he would not be able to reach the level of Lin Xiu.
The fire dragon seemed to have gotten rid of the category of dragon spirits, like a real dragon.
He didn't understand what was going on, but it was precisely because of this that Lin Xiu became more and more mysterious in his eyes.
He took a deep breath, his gaze fell on the old man in the field, and after a while, he said with deep meaning, "You are still alive, not for any other reason, but because our son was not prepared to let you die in the first place! Otherwise, even if you have nine lives, you will have already used them up." ”
The old man frowned slightly, as if he did not agree with this sentence, but after all, he did not say anything to refute, after all, it was not a glorious thing to be so embarrassed by a young man in his early twenties.
His gaze fell on Lin Xiu's body again, looked at it for a while, and then moved to Chongyun's body for a while, and after a while, he said in a deep voice, "I don't know if the young man can leave his name, so that I can know whose hands he planted today." ”
Lin Xiu hadn't said anything, but the big man of the Lingxu Clan's face sank, and he said coldly, "Why, I heard what you mean, and you're still going to find the field in the future?"
Lin Xiu smiled slightly, raised his hand to stop the middle-aged man with an angry face, looked at the old man with a smile, and after a while, said softly, "My name is Lin Xiu, a disciple of the Star Moon Palace!"
"Xingyue Palace?" The old man raised his eyebrows suddenly, and there was a look of surprise in his eyes, but after the accident, he suddenly nodded lightly and said, "It turned out to be the Holy Land Tianjiao, no wonder there is such a cultivation, I"
Suddenly, his voice stopped abruptly, and then his eyes suddenly widened, and his gaze fell on Lin Xiu's body again, he stared at the latter for a while, and exclaimed, "You, you are Lin Xiu?"
Lin Xiu asked with some surprise, "Uh, I'm Lin Xiu, could it be that Your Excellency has heard of me?"
The old man took a deep breath suddenly, and an indescribable deep meaning flashed in his eyes. The name Lin Xiu is now thunderous in the rivers and lakes.
If the recent rumor about him becoming the lord of the Demon God Clan was something that spread all over the rivers and lakes, because people didn't know much about the Demon God Clan and was a little bit weak, then the fact that Liantian Tower announced his separation from the Great Cloud Dynasty a few days ago and officially supported Lin Xiu as the Lord of Liantian was enough to shock the entire rivers and lakes.
As everyone knows, the holy land and the court have always been clear between the well water and the river water, but this time, after the announcement of the Liantian Tower, it was immediately supported by several holy places.
The first to express his stance was the Star Moon Palace, after all, Lin Xiu was a disciple of the Star Moon Palace, which was also reasonable.
It was followed by the West Emperor Mountain, considering that the current West Emperor was a disciple of the former Star Moon Palace, everyone could accept it.
But the next statement of the Netherworld Grassland was a little unexpected by everyone, after all, most of the people in the rivers and lakes knew that the Netherworld Grassland and the Star Moon Hall had always been incompatible, why would they stand together at this time?
However, just when they were puzzled by this, an even more important news came, and the Heavenly Saint Palace also expressed its support for Lin Xiu to become the Lord of the Heavens
At this point, except for the Divine Ruins Canyon that has been subverted, the holy places of the world are all on the side of the Liantian Tower.
In addition, the reborn demon god clan is far inferior to Da Yun's regular army in terms of numbers, but in terms of high-end combat power, it is far superior to Da Yun.
It is precisely because of this that the Liantian Tower has been able to support until now, and it has not been broken by the lion iron cavalry of the great clouds.
Such a terrifying force that can compete with the regular army of the entire dynasty is Lin Xiu.
No matter what really brought them together, at least on the surface, it was Lin Xiu who brought the major holy lands together.
A young man in his early twenties has such influence, how can the old man not be surprised, how dare not be surprised?
After Lin Xiu roughly understood the reason for the matter from the old man, his brows furrowed, looking very puzzled, although he had not deliberately inquired about the news along the way, he had not heard anyone mention this matter.
When he asked this doubt, the old man smiled bitterly and said, "Liantian Tower deliberately renders it with you as a banner. And in order to reduce the influence, the Great Cloud Dynasty has already issued an order prohibiting talking about this matter. Dayun must be an orthodox dynasty, in terms of influence in various places, it is far above the Holy Land Sect, and the situation is not clear at this time, no one wants to easily offend the imperial court"
Hearing this, Lin Xiu's face showed a sudden expression, no wonder no one had heard anyone talking about the battle situation of Liantian Tower along the way.
The old man said again: "Now, with the support of the major holy places, the dispute between Liantian Tower and Dayun has almost become a dispute between rivers and lakes and temples, so in order to prevent more people from rivers and lakes from going to Liantian Tower to help, the imperial court has issued some instructions to various cities and taken some extraordinary measures. ”
"What measures?" Lin Xiu asked softly.
The old man's face was slightly gloomy, and he said, "Carry out a policy of softness against the more influential sects in various places, and use their power to suppress the scattered forces in the rivers and lakes. ”
Lin Xiu groaned slightly, and he had already realized the mystery in it, and he had to sigh that the methods of the Great Cloud Dynasty were powerful, and his grasp of people's hearts was also very accurate.
Although it is now a dispute between temples and rivers and lakes, it is difficult for the rivers and lakes to be the entire rivers and lakes.
Because the Holy Land's rule over the rivers and lakes is too long
If the Holy Land does not fall, how will the rest of the forces have a day to emerge?
Now that the battle between Dayun and the Holy Land is won, it will be a reshuffle of the forces in the rivers and lakes. Although it expanded the rule of the imperial court, it also increased the chances of the rest of the forces to ascend to power.
As the so-called wealth and danger seek such an opportunity, it has only been this time for thousands of years.
In this way, as long as the imperial court promises great benefits, how can those middle and lower reaches of the forces who will never come out and will always rely on the Holy Land to survive not be moved?
In this case, it is already a great favor not to fall into the well, how can you hope that they will send charcoal in the snow?
Lin Xiu's face gradually became gloomy, he was still young in the end, and he looked at the situation a little simply. Now it seems that even if the Lingxu clan joins, it may not be able to solve the danger of the Heavenly Tower.
After a long time, Lin Xiu quietly glanced at Pei Yuheng, who was still in shock, and said softly, "That Qinghai Gate, could it be?"
The old man nodded and said, "Qinghai Gate was originally a first-class force around here, and there was a Shenxu Canyon town before, but now it has finally come out." They secretly reached an agreement with the imperial court to forcibly gather the surrounding rivers and lakes to disperse, and those who resisted had already become the souls of the sword. ”
The old man paused slightly, and then said, "The old man is not afraid of the Qinghai Gate, but he doesn't want to cause more trouble at this time, so he agrees to make their big offering, just for temporary stability." ”
Lin Xiu nodded lightly. Everyone has their own ambitions, and they can't force them.
However, even if he knew that this Qinghai Gate was now colluding with Dayun, he couldn't let it go.
As if he knew what Lin Xiu was thinking, the old man suddenly spoke, "I think that Lin Gongzi must be going to the Qinghai Gate to take a walk, but although Gongzi's cultivation is superb, he still needs to be extra careful." ”
"Although the old man is a great worship of Qinghai Gate, I know that my cultivation is not the highest. There are also two Dharma protectors in the Qinghai Gate, and although I have never fought with them, I can feel that their cultivation is by no means below me. ”
"And if the son arrives at the base camp of Qinghai Gate, and the other party rushes up, he will be protected by that master, and he will hate him on the spot!"
Lin Xiu nodded lightly, and said with a sincere face, "Thank you seniors for telling me calmly!" He paused slightly, a strange light suddenly flashed in his eyes, he stared at the other party again, and chuckled after a moment
"But if the seniors are willing to help, I guess the certainty of this trip will be improved a lot."
Hearing this, the old man's eyes froze, and then he showed a look of embarrassment.
However, this was already in Lin Xiu's expectations, and the other party was willing to tell him calmly, proving that he was not a great traitor, this person cultivated like this, even if he encountered it, how could Lin Xiu let it go easily?
He continued, "I vaguely heard that the seniors seem to need blood jade mushroom, and as far as I know, this blood jade mushroom is usually used as a medicine to treat old diseases, it is not the predecessor."
The old man's face changed, and then his eyes showed admiration, and after a long sigh, he said, "Lin Gongzi is really extraordinary. Yes, the old man was injured in his early years of cultivation, and it has always been difficult to recover. Later, after being pointed out, I learned that the Blood Jade Zhi could be dissolved, but the Blood Jade Zhi was a rare and miraculous medicine, where was it so easy to find"
Lin Xiu smiled and said, "Come to think of it, this is the real reason why the predecessors agreed to become the great worship of Qinghai Gate."
The old man looked embarrassed, and said softly, "Lin Gongzi's eyes are like torches"
Lin Xiu suddenly said, "If the seniors don't give up, can you let me check the injury?"
The old man was suddenly stunned, and asked with a look of disbelief, "Do you know medical skills?"
Lin Xiu chuckled and said, "I know a little bit about it, it's not profound, seniors don't have too much hope." ”
The old man's expression was complete and he didn't hesitate too much, and immediately said, "In this way, there will be Prince Laurin." ”
Lin Xiu nodded slightly towards the other party, and reached out to grab the other party's wrist.
The old man suddenly became nervous
