Chapter 302: The Marshal's Meeting

The Feiyun District, together with the Luoxia District and the Star Picking District, is collectively known as the Three Flying Ascension Regions, which are jointly controlled by the Immortals and Demon Clans. Now the three major ascension areas are under the control of the Lingwei Emperor of the Demon Clan and the Hualin Monarch of the Immortal Clan, and the Lingwei Emperor sent Marshal Xin Zhenyu to be in charge of the Feiyun District, while the Hualin Monarch sent Marshal Liang Feilian.

Because the demon clan has not had a Soarer for a long time, Xin Zhenyu only transferred General Yong from among the several generals under his command to manage the affairs of the Feiyun District. And the immortal clan has a lot of manpower, some are responsible for managing the leading team and the ascendants, some are responsible for managing the participants who come to the Feiyun District, and some are responsible for deploying materials and arranging personnel transfers.

The Lord of Feiyun City is a special position, although he belongs to the side of the Immortal Clan, his main task is to manage Feiyun City, and he has nothing to do with the Immortal Army. It is precisely because the triple houses of the immortals and demons belong to the territory of Feiyun City, so the maintenance of the triple houses on the demon side is also arranged and managed by the Feiyun City Lord. All in all, Qiu Wanqing has to put himself in a near-neutral position in most cases. In terms of status, it is roughly equivalent to that of a general.

But now that it is the evaluation competition, Marshal Liang of the Immortal Army and Marshal Xin of the Demon Army came to Feiyun City in person, and Qiu Wanqing's status was "demoted" and he became a messenger between the two.

After the report was completed, Qiu Wanqing respectfully stepped aside and waited for Liang Feilian to speak.

"Xin Zhenyu, that guy...... Originally, I wanted to be polite to him, but I didn't expect him to be really polite! If he wanted to see me, he should have come by himself, but it turned out that I was so passive, and I had to go to see him for the sake of a soarer, which was really unpleasant!" Liang Feilian was very dissatisfied, and pinched the bones and joints of his hands to "crackle".

"Marshal, why bother? According to what I mean, now I will directly take a few demon spirit orbs to that Ascendant, and say that he collected them, and Marshal Xin can't see it!" Qiu Wanqing said.

Liang Feilian glanced at him: "It's no longer a matter of being able to see and not see, Xin Zhenyu didn't care about that Ascendant at all, he just took the opportunity to let me go over to see him." If I don't go, even though the Ascendant can still pass the contest, it will appear that I am acting hypocritically, and if I go, will I not be called by him?

Qiu Wanqing didn't speak, but he complained in his heart: "I thought you were taking off your pants and farting from the root-itting...... It's good now, I was taken by someone and didn't say anything, and I was forced to do errands in it......" This kind of thing Qiu Wanqing only dared to say in his heart.

"Did he mention the other marshals?" asked Liang Feilian.

"Nope. Qiu Wanqing replied, and couldn't help but ask curiously, "I don't know what 'other marshals' mean...... Could it be that Marshal Bi is also in Feiyun City?" "The collective action of the five generalissimos under the command of Emperor Lingwei was a secret, so Qiu Wanqing didn't know about it at all. Liang Feilian said that he was careless.

"It's none of your business, don't ask so much!" Liang Fei reprimanded.

"Yes. Qiu Wanqing replied. In fact, he was almost sure in his heart. The marshals disregarded the other two lower-level cultivators in the Flying Ascension District, and gathered in the Feiyun District, there must be something of great importance.

Just as Qiu Wanqing was thinking nonsense, Liang Feilian said: "Run for me again, just tell Marshal Xin that in two hours, I will wait for him in Wanxian Tower, and you will go to the top floor of Wanxian Tower for me by the way." With that, he put on his hat and left in a hurry.

Qiu Wanqing pursed his lips reluctantly, and secretly spat at Liang Feilian's back.

......

During this time, Wanxian Lou's business was much busier than usual, and many cultivators were here to stagger and change cups, or to drink and talk for the passage of the competition, or to use wine to dispel their sorrows due to failure. Wang Luoliu, the shopkeeper, saw it in his eyes and was happy in his heart, because Wanxian Lou's profits were linked to his fortune. Therefore, he is full of red light every day, and his eyebrows are happy.

But tonight, he seemed a little unsettled, looking at a certain room on the top floor from time to time. All because of the two guests who drank in the room.

The two guests, one dressed in black and the other in white, both wore hats, and they couldn't see their faces at all, but there was one thing that Wang Luoliu cared about very much - the person who booked the table for the two guests was the dignified Feiyun City Lord, and the entire top floor was booked as soon as they were booked. On weekdays, Qiu Wanqing, the lord of Feiyun City, undoubtedly has the highest status in the city, and the one who can make him run errands at this time must be a big man above the marshal level.

"Could it be that the marshals of the immortal and demon armies have come to Feiyun City? Even if this is the case, it should have been for the purpose of evaluating the competition, how could they have time to come here to drink idle wine?" Wang Luoliu was puzzled in his heart.

Indeed, with an identity like Marshal Xin, although he had a mansion in Feiyun City, no one knew about it except for Qiu City Lord, General Yong and a few others, and he himself did not come often. Today, he was able to meet the generalissimo in the restaurant, and there were two of them at once, no wonder Wang Luoliu was suspicious of his speculation.

The night was dark, but the room was unlit, and the entire top floor seemed to be empty. The rest of the room, as well as the halls, were as noisy as ever, unaware that a meeting of the rank of a generalissimo was taking place secretly on the dimly lit top floor.

The two people in the room sat on the east and west sides of the square table, and although the hats had been removed, their faces were still hidden in the darkness. There was no food or wine on the table, only an unlit candlestick.

"Marshal Liang, a few days ago we said goodbye in a hurry in the Yaoming Forest, there are many things that have not yet been asked, I am fortunate to be here with you again today, and I hope you can tell you frankly. Xin Zhenyu got straight to the point.

Liang Feilian smiled indifferently: "I know what you want to ask, and I have nothing to hide."

Hidden. I was indeed ordered by the Maharaja to quietly follow you to the Zongpiao Realm last time. But you don't have to worry, the matter itself was agreed between our Maharaja and Emperor Lingwei, but Emperor Lingwei doesn't seem to have made it clear to you. ”

"No, my lord once told us about cooperating with Lord Hualin, but he didn't say that you would also go along. Xin Zhenyu suddenly smiled and said, "Marshal Liang is really interesting, since you are going together, why don't you show up and walk generously, but sneakily follow, you have to make people suspicious!"

"Heh, the Maharaja has instructed me to go only to assist, and I can only make a move at a critical moment, so as not to cause the dissatisfaction of the marshals of the demon army. Liang Feilian said with a smile.

"I see. Xin Zhenyu nodded as if he understood, and then said, "Marshal Liang, is the Lord of Hualin a little worried, our five generalissimos have all been dispatched collectively, and he is not at ease?" Or is it that he sent you to secretly follow you for another purpose?"

Marshal Xin laughed, the Maharaja, he just felt that since it was a cooperation between the two sides, it would not be good for our side to not be able to do anything at all. But if you openly send people with you, won't you seem to be convinced of the strength of your demon marshals? Facts have proved that this arrangement is still effective, and I believe that Marshal Xin did not expect that there would be so many powerful demon clans in the Guangyuan Basin, right? If it weren't for the sudden appearance of a mysterious master at the end, I believe we would have successfully fulfilled the entrustment of the Great King and the Great Emperor, wouldn't we?" Liang Fei said.

"I haven't even figured out whether those three demon girls are really the targets they want to kill, so how can we talk about 'completing the entrustment'!" Marshal Xin said as he thought in his heart: "Heh, with your indiscriminate methods of holding a junior demon cultivator hostage, can it be called 'smooth and consummation'? What a guy who is not ashamed to speak......

Liang Feilian shook his head again and again and said: "How can that junior demon cultivator's nonsense be taken seriously? The Great Monarch said that the target is the three demon girls in the Zongpiao Realm, and it just so happened that three of them came out of the main hall, if they were not the target, how could there be such a coincidence in the sky? Marshal Xin should not be tricked by that kid!"

Xin Zhenyu snorted lightly: "I have my own measure in this matter. ”

"Oh, I almost forgot, that stinky boy who suddenly came out to stir up trouble seems to be Marshal Xin's old acquaintance, no wonder you trust him so much!" Liang Feilian's tone of sudden realization sounded quite sarcastic.

"Then according to Marshal Liang's meaning, if the mysterious master doesn't appear later, you will kill those three demon girls?"

"Exactly. Could it be that Marshal Xin still plans to let them go?" Liang Feilian asked rhetorically.

"My lord's orders, I dare not obey them, but the stakes are very high, my original intention was to bring the three demon girls back and let the adults personally send them down. ”

Liang Feilian laughed: "It's so troublesome, even if you kill the wrong one? Eradicating the demon clan in the Zongpiao Realm is also a good thing, why should Marshal Xin bother with the kindness of a woman!" A "woman's benevolence" can already be regarded as an insult to a marshal.

"Then let me ask you, after you kill it, how should you report to the Lord of Hualin?" Xin Zhenyu said, "Do you mean 'successfully complete the task', or do you say 'kill three demon girls, but I don't know if it is the target you want to kill'?"

"This ......," Liang Feilian was speechless for a while.

"Heh, what a 'man's unkindness'!" Xin Zhenyu immediately ridiculed when he saw this. In fact, he was still skeptical of Liang Feilian's words, if he wanted to kill him, he would just start fighting, what was the use of holding a junior demon cultivator hostage? Could it be that he was used to force the three demon girls to commit suicide? No matter how he thought about it, he felt that Liang Feilian should have had other plans at that time.

Liang Feilian sighed: "That's it, we have all been frightened away by the mysterious master at the beginning, what are we arguing about here now? To get back to the point, Marshal Xin came to me, not just to ask why I followed you to the Zongpiao Realm, right?"

"That's just one of them. I also want to know about the mysterious master. Marshal Liang can be dismissed by the woman, he must know her identity, right?"

Unexpectedly, Liang Feilian shook his head: "To be honest, I really don't know." But when that woman came to speak arrogantly, she didn't seem to be afraid of our Great King and Emperor Lingwei at all, and secondly, she told me about the Great War of Jiang Youjie back then......"

"So, the rumors of the Battle of Jiang Youjie are true?"

"Yes. I am ashamed to say that at that time, I joined forces with Marshal Yun, Marshal Zhu, and Marshal Huang, but I still regretted defeat to a strong enemy. The three marshals the woman said were all right. ”

"In fact, there have been rumors about this matter in the rivers and lakes, and it stands to reason that some people deliberately inquired about it, and they can also learn about it, maybe the woman is bluffing. Xin Zhenyu said.

"The two things I said alone do not rule out the possibility that she is babbling, but what makes me more concerned is that she sent stones and shattered my hat. This kind of strength is definitely a top master. To be on the safe side, it's wiser to retreat temporarily. Liang Feilian explained.

"Hmm......" Xin Zhenyu nodded, at that time, Bi Huatian was also shocked by the strength of the woman's flying stone, so he ordered to retreat, "Marshal Liang, who was the person who fought with you in the Jiang You Realm at the beginning, he was so powerful, you four marshals couldn't fight him together?"

Liang Feilian replied vaguely: "I only know that it is a woman." She still has helpers, and it's not just one person. ”

"Could it be that he is really the Emperor of the Hidden Marquis?"

Liang Feilian chuckled: "I don't dare to speculate. If the Maharaja doesn't say it, we naturally don't dare to ask, anyway, it's just a group of masters. ”

Xin Zhenyu was silent and thoughtful. The room fell silent, in stark contrast to the noise of the hall downstairs.

After a long time, Liang Feilian stood up and moved his muscles: "If Marshal Xin has nothing else to do, let's stop here today! ”

"Wait!" Xin Zhenyu said, "Speaking of the Take-off Ascendant, I still have one thing to do." ”

Liang Feilian's face sank: "What, is it possible that Marshal Xin still disagrees?"

Xin Zhenyu smiled: "Marshal Liang misunderstood. Because my demon clan has not had an ascender for a long time, your immortal clan built Feiyun City and ruled the Feiyun District for so many years. And now that my demon clan has reappeared as a Soarer, the pattern of the Feiyun District should also be changed, right?"

"What does Marshal Xin mean is that he wants to get a piece of the Feiyun City? Don't you forget, Feiyun City was jointly funded and built by the five kings of our Immortal Clan. If it weren't for the governance of my immortal clan, Feiyun City, oh no, it was Feiyun District, how could it be as prosperous as it is today?"

"Marshal Liang said with a smile, it's just a place to live in the Ascension Zone, and it's not a giant city, how can it be 'prosperous'? Besides, my demon clan has no intention of taking advantage of the immortal clan at all. I have two plans: first, the Immortal Clan will give up half of the ruling power, and the Demon Clan will also appoint a city lord to govern Feiyun City with Qiu Wanqing. Of course, the demon clan will pay half of the corresponding fee, and second, my demon clan will build a new city next to Feiyun City, and share the ruling power of Feiyun District with Feiyun City. What do you think?"

Liang Feilian frowned. In fact, not only the Feiyun District, but also the Luoxia District and the Star Picking District have the same pattern, and the Immortal Clan has established a main city to manage the affairs of the Feisheng District. The demons, on the other hand, pitifully set up a few tents outside the city, and the leading team had nothing to do, and they had to be despised and excluded everywhere in the city. It can be seen from the fact that Liao Qifeng and a few of them have to carry waist cards if they want to enter Feiyun City. More than 700 years have passed, and this has always been the case. Maybe everyone in the world is used to it, including Liang Feilian. He never expected that Xin Zhenyu would suddenly mention this matter.

To say that Feiyun City is very "prosperous" is indeed an exaggeration. This is not the capital of the great king, nor is it a giant town of commercial ports, nor is it a township of Limin. The reason why people pay attention to this place is purely because it is the only state city in Feiyun District, and it is also one of only three state cities to hold a lower-level cultivator evaluation competition. Because of this, the benefits it brings to the immortal clan are immeasurable.

First of all, there is wealth. With the holding cycle of the Lower-Level Cultivator Evaluation Competition, a competition that everyone in the Yu Yu Realm must pass, a large number of people gather here every ten years. Where there are many people, there are business opportunities, and the shrewdness of traders will certainly not let go of such a good opportunity to make money. As the provider of the trading venue, it is natural for Feiyun City to extract a certain percentage of taxes. It can be said that during a competition, Feiyun City has gained more wealth than other state cities have accumulated in five or even ten years.

Secondly, there is networking. After all, Feiyun City is the venue for the competition, no matter whether you are from the immortal clan or the demon clan, no matter which emperor or the monarch's people, they must rush to participate. Therefore, among the contestants, there are many relatives and heirs of various important figures in the immortal and demon armies, and through this channel, they may be able to quickly get closer to those who have a noble status.

Third, it is talent. Through the consideration of the evaluation competition, many outstanding cultivators were discovered and absorbed into the two armies of immortals and demons.

Although the latter two points are also beneficial to the demons, the huge wealth alone has already made the immortals happy and happy, and the demons are envious.

Feiyun District is the Ascension Zone, and Feiyun City was originally set up because of the Immortal Clan's Ascendants, so it is inconvenient for the Demon Clan, which has not had an Ascended Champion for a long time, to occupy power. At this time, the two plans proposed by Marshal Xin obviously wanted to strip half of the benefits.

"Half of the capital or the construction of a new city will consume huge manpower, material and financial resources. Could it be that Marshal Xin could casually make the decision on such a major matter?" asked Liang Feilian.

"Of course not. These two plans are exactly what the Great Emperor meant, and I believe that the other four Demon Emperors will also approve of it. Xin Zhenyu said.

In fact, those two plans have already expressed the determination of the demon clan, either your immortal clan will give me half of the benefits, if not, we will also build a city next to it. It was not so much that Xin Zhenyu was here to discuss with Liang Feilian, but that he was here to inform him.

"This is a very important matter, and I must ask the Maharaja for advice. Allow me some time. Liang Feilian used a delaying tactic.

"I'm tired as soon as possible, the Emperor is still waiting for news. Xin Zhenyu stood up, took the hat, pushed open the door and walked out, standing on the cloister, leaning on the railing and looking at the noisy hall below

Wang Luoliu, who was looking upstairs, hurriedly retracted his gaze and walked out of the counter to greet the guests.

In fact, Xin Zhenyu didn't care about Wang Luoliu at all, his eyes fell on the table in the northeast corner. The four people sitting around the table were none other than the three members of Xiao Tianhe and the Demon Clan's leading teamβ€”they were celebrating Xiao Tianhe's passage of the competition.

After the last conflict between the immortal and demon clans in Wanxian Tower, due to General Yong's care for Xiao Tianhe and the change in the attitude of the city lord towards Xiao Tianhe, Wang Luoliu often left a private room for them, but it happened to be on the top floor of the package by Liang Feilian. During the meeting between the two marshals, Xiao Tianhe and the other four happened to come to drink and celebrate, and as a last resort, Wang Luoliu had to arrange another big table for them.

"It's that kid......" Liang Feilian's voice sounded behind Xin Zhenyu, and he saw Xiao Tianhe at a glance.

"After that encounter in the Bright Forest, you must be very concerned about him. Xin Zhenyu said.

"Don't you care?"

Xin Zhenyu didn't answer, the two of them were so condescending, silently watching Xiao Tianhe's every move.

Suddenly, Liang Feilian's heart moved, and he said, "Marshal Xin, about the incident you just said, how about we make a bet?"
