Fengling Ferry is on the border of Qin and Zhao, and it has been a large market town since ancient times, and many grudges and vendettas, fragrant or tragic stories were born on the rivers and lakes. From the Fengling Ferry to the east, it is the ointment and solid soil of the demon country. But ever since Yuwen Batu forced the Eastern Portal of the Demon Kingdom, the elite of the Demon Army moved to Dark Cloud City from the west and north.

Since ancient times, the peaks and mountains of Yan Zhao are like gathering, and the male pass is like iron. The demon army left behind in Zhao abandoned the city, drove people into the fortress, and held the Great Wall. It is precisely because of this that the rebel army of Zhao Di is like a fox squirrel, one after another from the cave-cave, occupying the empty city, and communicating with the Fengling Ferry.

Above the Fengling Ferry, there is another star castle Baiyun City of Wenhou, which is guarded by Ding Koi, the middle-level Yuanying of Kunlun and the ancestor of Guanshui. The predecessor of this star castle was the Falling Star Mountain offered by Yuan Zhi, and it was driven by the star source that Kunlun received when he solved the siege of the imperial capital. After three years of operation, Baiyun City began to take shape: the 40,000 Western Army Qi Refiners and 10,000 Western Wilderness Army Qi Refiners who conquered the Demon Country were stationed here, and 100 treasure ships were also anchored in the Star Castle. There are also countless cooks and servants who accompany the army, just like a big city in the sky.

The Juxian class also boarded Baiyun City with the note issued by Wenhou. In addition to the pear orchard, there are also many merchants and colonists in Shangcheng who are looking for opportunities. At my suggestion, Baiyun City recruited a group of famous criminals to mediate the disputes between the people in the city in peacetime, and to help ponder the loopholes of various terms and oaths in wartime.

Wenhou herself went to the city at the latest, and she was accompanied by Yuan Zhi and Le Jingxin.

During the delay, Wenhou and Gu Tianchi reached a gentleman's agreement. After the affairs of the demon country are completed, the seven people who will rebuild the sect to coordinate the affairs of the world: Yuwen Badu, Wenhou, Guo Zihan, Xiaoyun Zhangmen and Fang Qingwei are still present. Ming Mingde completely withdrew and gave way to the emperor Gu Tianchi. There is another place, which will be reserved for Kunlun and one more. The Kunlun Sect clearly recognized Gu Tianchi's status as the emperor of the Taizheng Dynasty, and Gu Tianchi also promised to maintain the existing boundary between Kunlun and the Sword Sect.

This is the news revealed by Wenhou during a private meeting with me and Princess Lin.

The Seven were initially only coordinating the crusade against the Demon Kingdom. Now it seems that even if the Demon Kingdom falls, the Seven will still continue to guide the operation of the Middle-earth Imperial Court.

The New Seven Society, three secular marshals, representatives of the three major sects, and another figure in the imperial court, seems to be not much different from the original Seven Society. In fact, now the imperial party of the Taizheng Dynasty has completely merged with the Sword Sect Demon Sect controlled by Gu Tianchi, and on the surface, the Sword Sect is stronger than three years ago, but inside it is scattered into three forces that go their own way.

Princess Lin asked, "Why can't Kunlun be sure of another candidate, and Ji Liuli won't continue to stay with the Seven?"

Wen Hou slowly shook the pink gold folding fan, the fan is Qiu Shizhou's hand-me-down work "Red Cliff Picture Scroll", and said:

"That's why I'm just inviting you two. Ji Zhenren has lived in Middle-earth for a long time, and his original role was to speak on behalf of Kunlun. Since Kunlun has entered Middle-earth, it does not need to appoint another person, but must be a representative of a powerful person. The Western Army can act in the name of the imperial court, but it is limited to the laws of the imperial court; the Western Wilderness Army is a guest of Middle Earth, but it is not within the scope of the royal law, and it is Kunlun's two sharp knives with different clever uses. Pick one of the two of you to be a member of the Council of Seven. This is also the meaning of the patriarch and the master. ”

The paper crane headed by Yan Yuan first went to Chang'an, and then to Fenglingdu, and Wenhou got the information first.

If the influence of the Kunlun Elders is greater in the Western Army, the relationship between Guanshui and Yan Yuan and the Western Wilderness Army is even deeper. Ji Liuli's withdrawal, first of all, is the balance within Kunlun.

Princess Lin looked at me sweetly: "I am already the lord of the Western Wilderness Demon, why do I need to add another official position, I can't be busy with so many things." Yuan Jun has the greatest credit in the Demon Wandering Academy, but he has always been occupied by Le Jingxin. Let Yuan Jun be the little leader of the Seven People's Association, so that everyone in the world will know about it, and he will be happy and quiet. ”

Wen Hou smiled: "It's really a Taoist couple. ”

I shook my hand, "We are both fourth-generation disciples, Princess Lin and I will never have stage fright in front of those big names in other sects." But I don't go to the Seven. I'm not modest. ”

Wenhou and Princess Lin were suspicious.

Princess Lin asked: "Many years have passed, Yuan Jun has also relieved the Three Corpse Gods, and there is still a great merit in pacifying the Western Regions, who dares to mention that you killed Tang Weiyang by mistake?" You are a descendant of Kunlunmen, a pure Taoist priest in the world, and no one is more qualified than you." ”

I said to her, "In addition to being afraid of trouble, there are other reasons why you don't want to go." ”

Princess Lin was stunned for a moment, and said slowly: "Not bad." If I join the Seven-member Society, it will inevitably be rumored that I am a demon. They will say that the four major sects have not yet eliminated Xiao Longyuan, and the seven will have one more monster to control Middle-earth first. Besides, five hundred years ago, my mother fought with the Sword Sect in Middle-earth, and many people died from the monsters under my mother's hands. I don't like to eat flies. ”

I took Princess Lin's hand, "Because of this, it's impossible to favor you with seven people." Only if you go can you correct the impression that the people of Middle-earth have of youkai. Xiao Longyuan ruled the demons with his might, but he could not be recognized by humans. You are not only the inheritor of the White Tiger God, but also the daughter of the head of Kunlun and a pure female Taoist. Lin'er, you can win both demons and people. You've never been afraid of facing difficulties. As for Le Jingxin Lao'er, it's not in my eyes, it's more than him, you don't have to worry about me. ”

Wen Hou stopped fanning, "The suggestion of the original junior brother is inevitably a little bolder. The people of the Sword Sect have always been anti-demon clans, and Gu Tianchi and I have just negotiated peace, and you have proposed a candidate to stimulate them. ”

I said: "The Yuwen Badu of the Sword Sect married the fox demon as his wife, and Gu Tianchi also shielded the monkey demon to flee, in order to fight for hegemony, their own rules have long been gone, can we Kunlun people be more filial to the rules of the Sword Sect than their descendants? Princess Lin made them uncomfortable, that was simply great." Since we Kunlun want to elect powerful people, it can make the Sword Sect uncomfortable. The Sword Sect has always been anti-demonic, and we in Kunlun will do the opposite. We are not biased, the Sword Sect's anti-demon is paranoid, Xiao Longyuan's demon worship is also paranoid, Kunlun is the right middle way!"

Seeing that Wen Hou was still hesitating, I couldn't help but urge her and said:

"Senior sister, at that time, the demon monkey threw out a sentence, and everyone was silent, in fact, we all remembered: the Dao Sect no longer exists, and the four major sects and the scattered cultivation of the whole world are equal. I see, since the Tao does not give birth, the demons do not grow. We don't have to be constrained by any rules.

The ancestor of Guanshui thanked the head of Yan for his great merit in marrying Yao Zhenren, and then pushed Yan Yuan, who was born in the Dragon and Tiger Sect, to be the head of Kunlun, and in order to resolve the grudge with the demon of the Western Wilderness, he personally apologized to Yao Zhenren. Kunlun maintained Princess Lin's status, and finally received the full support of the Western Desolation Demon. The Guanshui Patriarch also handed over the Demon Wandering Courtyard to me who didn't know where it came from, and you also handed over Yuan Zhi of the Star Sect to the military administration with confidence, and we didn't disappoint Kunlun. Letting go and letting extraordinary people do extraordinary things is the truth of a world without Tao and no demons. Rightly or wrongly, we're at least blazing new trails. ”

I knew about the Daomen when I was in Parrot Mountain, but I moved back to Monkey Mountain.

Wen Hou got up suddenly, closed the folding fan, and paced in the small room. One of her clogs broke in excitement,

"It seems that everyone is pretending to be confused. If you don't invite the patriarch and the head of the family to preach your comfort, the group of cultivators will float, the army will be puzzled, and when it comes to the list of mountains and rivers, if that person comes out, I am afraid that there will be a big obstacle. ”

She jerked back and looked at us fixedly:

"Indeed, the Daomen is long gone. There is no Tao and no demons, and all group cultivators are equal. The four major sects did not deny the truth of the Honghuang Sect. Xiao Longyuan's demon army did have many sins, but it was not to cut the grass to the roots. But we still killed us, some for the spiritual veins, some for merit and power, and some for the undersea method.

But Yuan Jiankong, your guts are still too much, so big that you ignore the rules!

Do you know why the Guanshui Patriarch is so profound, and his wrists are so old and spicy, but he always knocks on the side and does not let Kunlun be in charge? Well, he has a mind, he has courage, and others being the head can reduce the friction between him and the elders, and he can pass the buck if he is at fault.

But the most important thing is that he is not a human being! Even if he looks at the water, he doesn't dare to break the rules! You push Princess Lin to the Seven People's Meeting, how different is it from letting the demon clan be the head!"

Princess Lynn and I were both amazed.

"Even if it is a Dao Sect, there has never been a precedent for a demon clan to be the head of the sect!"

Wen Hou slowed down his tone and said,

"My ancestor is a half-fox demon and half-human bloodline, commonly known as Lu Chengjiang, and the road number is Guanshui. He has been fostered as a farmer since he was a child, and his master is the ancestor. His paternal line is the Lu family, the top ten families of the Daomen, his mother is the leader of the group of foxes, the regent of the demon clan before the White Tiger God descended, and the master of the Daomen's Courtyard is not at all inferior to Princess Lin's background. The ancestor of Guanshui is the most noble fox, and the Su clan, the Xuanyuan clan, the Qingqiu clan, and all of them are under the Weiji clan.

Our Kunlun is not a Daomen, but we have inherited the orthodoxy of the Daomen. The ancestor of Guanshui wants to win the branch of Wanliyun, that is, the evil purple takes Zhu, and he hates the concubine. Just like this, he has always adhered to the practice of not being the head of the demon clan. Even after hundreds of years, the precepts of the Dao Sect were almost lost, he still adhered to this one. ”

Wen Hou looked at us, "Yuan Jiankong, Luo Shenlin, are you bolder than the Guanshui Patriarch?"

Princess Lin, who sat still, let out a long and depressed temper, "Then, I will listen to Yuan Jun's words, and I will go to the Seven Meeting." Why can't the demon clan be the head of the family, why can't you go to the Seven Meeting, the tiger can do better than the fox. ”

Wen Hou looked at me.

I said, "When Wenhou handed me the ancient money back then, did you know my relationship with Wei Zhengrong?"

Wen Hou was slightly surprised, and then said:

"No wonder your progress is so terrifying. Sure enough, you get the last memories. If you ask the Guanshui Patriarch, I don't know his wrists. But I know that Wei Zhengrong is the most disgusted person in Guanshui - it was Wei Zhengrong who forced Guanshui to destroy the form and spirit of the whole ancestor and seal it in the hidden side of the Tao, and it was Wei Zhengrong who forced Guanshui and Kunlun to leave their hometowns, and compromised the whole land in exchange for the continuation of Kunlun, which became the biggest shame for Kunlun and Guanshui. If you were Wei Zhengrong, how could he hand over the Demon Courtyard to you? How could he hand over the Demon Courtyard to you! I rebelled against the Council of Elders several times and suppressed Le Jingxin's doubts about you, and it was precisely because I was optimistic about you and wanted to see how far the person chosen by the Ancestor of Guanshui could go. ”

I said: "Then, Guanshui chose a person who didn't even pay attention to Wei Zhengrong." Senior Sister Wenhou, I am indeed bolder than Guanshui, I will not survive under Wei Zhengrong's knees. Do you still want to dissuade Princess Lin and me? I don't care about the rules of the Daomen. ”

Wen Hou did not speak.

"If you remember the rules, you can't be promoted to a real person. In a world without Tao and demons, you are still trapped in the trap of the Tao. ”

I said.

The fan in Wen Hou's hand fell, and she said, "Okay." The three of us have been fully allied ever since. I tried my best to recommend Princess Lin to the Council of Seven to the Patriarch, the Head, and the Council of Elders. ”

Princess Lin got up leisurely, "Then I'll give Senior Sister a thank you gift." ”

Four bronze monsters and five bronze monsters were released from her ring. The nine bronze birds and beasts converged into a bronze giant sword that was the same height as Princess Lin, and it was still a mistake.

Princess Lin, who was in a platinum robe, dragged her sword and pushed the pavilion out, she stood on the top of Baiyun City, and under the sea of clouds was the extinct birds of Zhao Di, and the mountains like pillars of heaven were stacked.

Princess Lin waved a word wrong, and the sword light shot out from Baiyun City, breaking the floating clouds on the top, splitting the earth below, and the tsunami generally lined up thousands of mountains and ravines.

A section of the continuous Great Wall disappeared, as if it had never existed, and Baiyun City was thus breached into the solid land of the Demon Kingdom.
