"Now that it's been postponed for a year, there must have been some changes. Du Fuchong said, "The specific changes are not yet clear, and they will probably be announced later." But one thing has been made clear now, this time it is a public competition, held in the capital, in front of the people and people in the rivers and lakes. And the reward is incomparably rich, provided by the imperial court, and it is said that with reference to previous awards, the reward is tripled. ”

"Tut-tut, the people in the rivers and lakes are going crazy. Lin Xiqi was very surprised, "What does the imperial court want to do?

"Probably to create a momentum, it is said that some people in the court proposed to let those surrounding forces, such as Hou Yuan, know that the fortune of the Great Xia country is prosperous, even if it is a person in the rivers and lakes, it is also a master. Du Fuchong said.

"What does this have to do with the fortunes of the country?" Lin Xiqi shook his head and said, "The greater the power of the rivers and lakes, it doesn't mean that the imperial court will be stronger. In many cases, it means that the imperial court is weak and lacks control, which makes the power of the rivers and lakes bigger. ”

"Face. Du Fuchong said.

Lin Xiqi nodded.

This is not surprising in the heart, after all, Great Xia claims to be the superior kingdom of the Celestial Empire, and regards the rest of the surroundings as some barbarians.

"It's no wonder that the preparation took a long time after a year's delay. Lin Xiqi said.

"My lord, the Floating Cloud Sect should also go and participate. Du Fuchong said.

"Oh?" Lin Xiqi raised his eyebrows and looked at Du Fuchong.

"Renjiang, they should properly show their strength, the prestige of the rivers and lakes is still needed. Du Fuchong said, "Otherwise, like a sect in the border land, no matter how strong it is, it is unlikely to be looked down upon by the people in the rivers and lakes." ”

"It's not appropriate to be too conspicuous. Lin Xiqi said.

"No, there are pros and cons. Du Fuchong said, "The prestige of a sect is enough, and it can bring many benefits. Of course, there are also drawbacks, just like you said, too conspicuous, especially in Renjiang, they are so young, and Mu Xiu will be destroyed by the forest wind. But from another point of view, it is also a kind of training for Injiang, depending on whether they can withstand such pressure. ”

"So, they have to go. Lin Xiqi smiled.

"Even if the old slave doesn't say it, as long as this news spreads, Renjiang and they will definitely be tempted when they know about it, my lord, I'm afraid you won't be able to stop it. Du Fuchong said, "The Dragon and Tiger List, this is the most influential list in the rivers and lakes." Once on the list, his status will be improved, and at the same time, he will be able to benefit his mentorship. At this time, all the major sects in the rivers and lakes are full of energy. ”

"I can't stop it. Lin Xiqi nodded.

Such a grand event in the rivers and lakes will be crazy for all major factions, and even some major forces of the major sects will continue to grow their momentum through this competition.

Senior brother, they definitely want to participate, if they forcibly suppress it, some of them can't say it.

What Du Fuchong said makes sense, this is a kind of training for the senior brothers, and it is also an invisible pressure on himself, which is also a training.

What's wrong with the fact that there are only a group of young boys in power in the Floating Cloud Sect, and those who are not satisfied can come to find trouble.

With the current strength of the senior brothers, the strength of the Dragon List is not enough.

They are going to compete for the dragon list, and they are definitely at the top.

"A Seven Dragons List, young, still a senior brother, if it spreads, I'm afraid everyone in the world will know about the Floating Cloud Sect. Du Fuchong said, "This kind of prestige may be even greater than that of the Seven Star Sect. ”

"That's because the Seven Star Sect has been low-key in Liangzhou for too long, and many people in the rivers and lakes don't know much about them. Especially in the rivers and lakes of the Central Plains, they don't think much of the border sects. Lin Xiqi said.

"Now that the strength is not as good as the Seven Star Sect, let's build momentum first. Du Fuchong said, "After the Red Lotus Sect deals with the Seven Star Sect, even if the Seven Star Sect is not destroyed, its strength will be greatly damaged. I'm afraid I won't be able to serve as the leader of a state anymore. At that time, the replacement of the Floating Cloud Sect will be more convincing. ”

"Okay, that's the benefit of the prestige of the rivers and lakes. Lin Xiqi smiled.

In many cases, some masters or sects are actually famous, but their strength is average.

Strength and fame do not match.

But as long as he has a reputation, many people will still give him face.

The Floating Cloud Sect is not only famous, but also more powerful.

"Actually, if you are an adult, it will be shocking. Du Fuchong said.

"Forget it, I'm not going to participate. Lin Xiqi chuckled and said, "But I will still witness the competition for the Dragon and Tiger List." ”

Du Fuchong nodded.

Lin Xiqi went over this time, as a state pastor, he must be an important person.

"But I'm a little worried in my heart, this time, will there be some old things and old monsters, I'm afraid that I will be seen to have some flaws. Lin Xiqi said with some concern.

"But you can't go, sir. Du Fuchong frowned.

The water in the capital is too deep, and no one can guarantee what kind of masters lurk there.

Many masters in the rivers and lakes have disappeared for countless years, maybe some of them are really dead, but he knows that many people are not actually dead, just hiding somewhere to retreat.

The imperial court, especially the royal family, has collected many of these masters.

With the power of the royal family, they provided their best elixirs and exercises, and the price was naturally to serve the royal family.

Even if you are a master, the temptation of exercises and pills is still difficult to resist.

The imperial court is not only to control the local government, but also to deter all major factions in the rivers and lakes.

Maybe now the imperial court's control over the rivers and lakes has become weaker, but it doesn't mean that the imperial court is weaker.

Especially now that these princes have recruited masters from the rivers and lakes, their power cannot be underestimated.

"Actually, adults don't have to worry too much. Du Fuchong thought for a while, his brows stretched and said, "Actually, the adults have attended a few times in front, and it is enough to show up." Those real old guys and old monsters should only show up when they are competing for the top positions on the dragon list, and at that time, the adults just find an excuse not to attend. ”

"Well, that's all I can do. Lin Xiqi nodded and said, "Those old things are busy cultivating, and it is not easy to come out once, as long as I don't go over in the end, I shouldn't be found out of the ordinary." Then this matter is decided, and when the time comes, I will talk to the Floating Cloud Sect and let them prepare. Well, if you go to the capital, I'm afraid you'll have to stay. ”

"The old slave understands that the old slave will keep an eye on the Seven Star Sect and the Red Lotus Sect, as well as secretly take care of the Floating Cloud Sect, and during the time when the adults go to the capital, they will guarantee that nothing major will happen. Du Fuchong said.

As long as Fuyun Sect Renjiang and the others have a heart, with their strength, they can definitely be elected by Liangzhou to participate in the competition for the Dragon and Tiger List in the capital.

If Renjiang and the others all leave, there will be no masters in the Floating Cloud Sect.

He's definitely going to take care of it.

"I'll mention it to Han Lao then. Lin Xiqi said.

Hearing Lin Xiqi say this, Du Fuchong was even more relieved.

With Han Min, the predecessor of Han, there is no problem.

Lin Xiqi would not trouble Han Min under normal circumstances.

Because Han Min had said before that he wouldn't care much about things that had nothing to do with the Valley of Annihilation.

But after so many years, as Lin Xiqi's strength is getting stronger and stronger, Han Min will still help with some things about Lin Xiqi.

For example, during his departure from Liangzhou, let him take care of the Floating Cloud Sect and the people beside him, Han Min would not refuse.
