Pingxi general Luo Jing was defeated.

The imperial court was defeated and retreated on all fronts in Nanfeng Mansion.

And that's not all.

Shen Hong, Marquis of Wu'an, rebelled, and joined forces with Zhang Yi, Marquis of Nanfeng, to flank the imperial army.

In addition to this.

On the same day, the three mansions of Qianshan, Luoyue, and Baiyong also launched an offensive against the imperial court.

The princes of the five parties seemed to have been discussed.

At the same time, he attacked the imperial court.

If the previous turmoil was still stable for the imperial court, then the current turmoil has broken the situation that the imperial court is struggling to maintain.

There were many armies in the hands of the imperial court.

But in reality, this force is the number of provinces.

If the troops of each province are abandoned, the five generals led by Shan Hao are the ones who really hold the military power.

But now that Luo Jing is dead, he is buried with the army in his hands.

One trades off the other.

The power of the imperial court was suddenly weakened a lot.

Especially now that the grass and trees are all soldiers, and the princes of the various provinces who do not move, all have the possibility of rebellion.

So.

The imperial court also needs to divide a lot of troops to secretly guard against this matter.

Arguably.

All these things combined to make the situation fall into a state of collapse completely.

"The chaos in the world is too fast this day!" Qin Shujian put down the communication jade talisman in his hand, his brows tightened, but he was thinking about the message in the jade talisman in his mind.

He didn't think about it either.

Within a few days, the world was in chaos like this.

Even.

Qin Shujian also had to pay attention to the movements of Beiyun Mansion.

Now in this situation, if you can't keep it, Beiyunhou will have some ideas.

"It's just—is Jokhang really going to fall apart?"

Qin Shujian looked in the direction of the Imperial City of Zhongzhou, his face was a little inexplicable.

It has only been about a year since the death of the emperor, and the world has become like this, which is a very undesirable thing.

After all, the human emperor has reigned for so many years.

It is impossible not to be prepared at all.

But now, one of the five generals has fallen, and the situation is obviously out of control.

can be ranked among the five major generals, at least he is also a strong man in the four heavens and men.

Qin Shujian's mind kept turning, thinking about the countermeasures to the current situation.

Don't look at the cultivation world, it's quite far away from the court.

But in reality, it's very close.

If the Zhao really collapsed, then it would be completely impossible for the sect to be left alone.

Come to think of it.

Qin Shujian immediately summoned back.

Subsequently.

He glanced at the already life source, and immediately raised the Guiyuan Ancestor Scripture to the fourth level of the Shenwu Chapter.

With the ascension of the exercises.

Qin Shujian's strength increased by a few points.

Different from Zhenwu and Lingwu, although the Shenwu Realm is also divided into ten levels, each level has no actual transformation, and it is very direct to enhance its own strength.

Therefore, the Shenwu Realm is not divided into inner and outer Gangs like the True Martial Realm, nor is it divided into the Spirit God Imperial Sky Manifestation like the Lingwu Realm.

Shenwu is Shenwu.

At most, divide a front, middle, back, peak and other details.

Shenwu 1 to 3 is the early stage, 4 to 6 is the middle stage, 7 to 9 is the late stage, Shenwu 10 is the peak.

Further up.

It is a half-step celestial, as well as a celestial overhaul.

But seriously.

In fact, there is no division of the realm of half-step heaven and man.

Either the peak of divine martial arts, or the celestial man.

The so-called half-step celestial is actually a failure to break through the realm of heaven and man, but his strength is a few points stronger than the peak of the idle divine martial arts, so he is called a half-step celestial.

Strictly speaking.

A half-step celestial being is a symbol of failure.

Because the real powerhouse will never be stuck in the embarrassing position of a half-step celestial.

Either don't break through.

Once you break through, it's a 100% success.

And after breaking through to the Divine Martial Realm Fourfold, Qin Shujian felt that his strength had improved in an all-round way.

"Shenwu is fourfold, strive to break through to the realm of heaven and man within three months!"

He set himself a small goal.

According to Qin Shujian's estimate.

Breaking through the realm of heaven and man, it will probably be around 10 billion life sources.

Even if this range will fluctuate, it will not exceed it too much.

Ten billion in three months.

If you put it in the past, it would be impossible.

But now, it's not impossible.

Right now, there are still a bunch of evil demons in the True Domain all over the Great Zhao, waiting for the arrival of his Qin Sect Master, if he doesn't take this opportunity to make a profit, there will really be no such shop in this village.

Subsequently.

Qin Shujian was the sky and went to a nearby city.

If the true domain is not far away, it is more appropriate to travel by yourself.

But if it's too far away, you'll still need to rely on the portal.

Although Qin Shujian was able to open the portal by himself, he needed the coordinates of the other end, otherwise, the portal could only enter and exit, and he would only get lost in the spatial turbulence.

In front of the city.

Qin Shujian fell down, and like ordinary people, he walked towards the city on foot.

Every city has a forbidden sky formation.

It's natural to use his means to forcibly control the sky, but that's too high-profile, and there's no need for that.

This is the South Wind House.

The city in front of him has just experienced the war for a long time, and there are still traces of gunsmoke on the city wall, as well as the smell of iron-blooded slaughter, which has not been completely eliminated.

But.

Although the city has just experienced the war for a short time, the order in the city has been almost restored.

At least when Qin Shujian walked into the city gate, there were already many people coming in and out, and there were also guards.

When Qin Shujian walked into the city gate, he thought that there would be guards to stop him.

However, after the guard glanced at it, he politely moved out of the way, and there was a kind smile on his face.

See here.

Qin Shujian also smiled back, and immediately entered the city.

"Why didn't that person stop him just now?"

"That lord is definitely a monk who is not weak, there is no need to intercept it for a little money, maybe he will even harm the other party. ”

After Qin Shujian walked away, one of the guards asked, and the other also answered.

The so-called entry checkpoint into the city is only for ordinary people.

Many people can still enter the city without a guide, the difference is that they pay a little more and pay a little less.

If these people casually fabricate an identity, there is no way to confirm it.

Therefore, the work of this guard is not so much to audit and inspect the people who enter and exit, but rather to collect money.

With his eyesight.

I could also feel the extraordinaryness on Qin Shujian's body, so I didn't intercept it.

The other side.

Qin Shujian walked into the city, the shops on both sides of the street were partially opened, and the remaining part was closed, although there were pedestrians on the street, but the number of people was not large.

These people inside.

There are also players who exist.

He didn't pay much attention to this.

This time he came to this city just to borrow the portal of teleportation, and as for other things, Qin Shujian didn't plan to pay attention to it.

When he came to the portal was located.

The general guarding the portal was already the first to give his hand, and asked respectfully: "Dare to ask, but Qin Shujian Qin Sect Master is in front of him?"

"So what?"

"Sect Master Qin, don't misunderstand, it's just that Hou Ye has already instructed that if he meets Sect Master Qin, he hopes to be able to talk to Qin Shujian. ”

For fear of causing Qin Shujian's displeasure, the general directly stated the purpose.

Hear the words.

Qin Shujian frowned slightly, and refused: "Qin has other things to do, I'm afraid that I will live up to the good intentions of Nanfeng Hou." ”

At this juncture.

He didn't plan to have too much contact with Zhang Yi.

Now the situation is wonderful.

Maybe a few more words will arouse the suspicion of others.

The relationship between the Jokhang and the rebels is the same as fire, even if the Jokhang collapses, these princes and rebels will have to divide each other sooner or later.

In this case.

It's not time to stand in line.

Regarding Qin Shujian's refusal, the general also showed a look of embarrassment on his face, but he didn't dare to insist too much, but turned sideways and got out of the way.

"Since Sect Master Qin has something to do, he doesn't dare to stop him, I don't know where Sect Master Qin is going?"

"Which city is closest to Pingchuan Mansion?"

"This is the True Domain City, if Sect Master Qin wants to go to Pingchuan Mansion, he still needs to go to Zephyr City first, and then transfer to the Teleportation Gate. ”

"Then let's go to Zephyr. ”

Qin Shujian nodded.

Then he saw the portal activate, and he had disappeared in place.

At the moment when Qin Shujian left, the general had already summoned back what he had seen.

Space changes.

Qin Shujian had already discovered that he had appeared in a strange city.

After one teleportation, he didn't stop for a moment, and directly started the second teleportation.

Although the portal can travel a long distance, it does not mean that a single teleportation can cross a place.

A lot of the time.

The distance of a teleportation is as short as several true domains, and the long distance is only the range of one or two spiritual domains.

After passing through five portals.

Qin Shujian came to the border close to Pingchuan Mansion.

Just as he was about to enter the Pingchuan Mansion.

One of them stopped him.

"Sect Master Qin, go slowly!"

"Who is Your Excellency?"

Seeing the young man dressed as a literati scholar in front of him, Qin Shujian asked calmly.

Although the person in front of him looked weak, he couldn't help but feel the wind.

But when his eyes passed, he could also see the depth of the other party's cultivation.

Shenwu Duo!

This kind of strength is placed in the cultivation world, and it is also a proper powerhouse with high strength.

The young scholar arched his hand and said with a smile: "In Xia Gaojing, it is a staff member under the tent of the Marquis of Nanfeng, and when he heard that the sect master of Qin was coming, he came to greet him. ”

"Qin asked himself if he had any intersection with Nanfeng Hou, I don't know why?"

"Sect Master Qin's reputation is resounding in the cultivation world, and Master Hou has always been yearning for it, this time in order to see Sect Master Qin, he has been waiting in the city, and I hope that Sect Master Qin can give a face, and go with him. ”

Gao Jing's attitude was sincere, and his tone was quite respectful, and he couldn't see the arrogance that Shenwu Realm should have.

See here.

Qin Shujian was silent for a while, and finally said lightly: "Then please lead the way." ”

"Sect Master Qin, please!"

Gao Jing turned sideways, and then walked in front to lead the way.

In the rear, Qin Shujian followed with his hands.

Originally, he didn't want to meet Zhang Yi, but the other party was obviously blocking him here, so he simply went to see what kind of medicine was being sold in this Nanfeng Hou gourd.

If you refuse again and again, you will inevitably hurt the other party.

Up to now, Nanfeng Hou has acted politely, and Qin Shujian has not thought of provoking one more enemy for no reason, so if the other party wants to see it, then see it.

Since you can't hide from it.

Then face it calmly.

With his current strength, even if Zhang Yi has any bad behavior, he can't keep him.

Following Gao Jing, he saw that the staff of the Nanfeng Marquis turned left and right, and finally crossed several streets, and finally stopped in front of a mansion.

On the plaque of the mansion, five big characters are written on the Nanfeng Hou Beppu.

"This is Nanfeng Hou Beppu, Hou Ye is waiting inside, and he also asks Sect Master Qin to go in with him. ”

Gao Jing paused slightly, explained sideways, and then walked in first.

Qin Shujian didn't hesitate and followed the other party in.

The Nanfeng Hou Beppu here is not much different from the Beiyun Hou Beppu that he once visited.

In every big city, there is basically one such Beppu, which is regarded as the temporary residence of the princes of one side.

Compared to the real Hou Mansion.

Beppu in front of you can only be regarded as a dispensable thing.

It didn't take long.

Qin Shujian followed Gao Jing into the lobby.

I saw a middle-aged man with an extraordinary bearing sitting on the main seat.

After seeing the other party, Gao Jing bowed and saluted: "Master Hou, Sect Master Qin Shujian has already been brought." ”

"Well, you can go down. Zhang Yi bowed his head, and immediately fell his gaze on Qin Shujian's body.

When Zhang Yi's eyes came.

Qin Shujian stood still, just symbolically arched his hand, and said with a smile: "Qin has seen Nanfeng Hou. ”

"Sect Master Qin, please take a seat. ”

"Thank you. Qin Shujian sat down on one side without too much restraint.

Wait until Qin Shujian sits down.

Zhang Yi looked at him carefully, and then said with a smile: "I have always heard of the reputation of Sect Master Qin, Benhou has always regretted that he did not have the opportunity to see him, and today I saw it really worthy of his reputation. ”

"Nanfeng Hou praised, Qin is just a little famous, nothing to do. ”

Regarding Nanfeng Hou's touting, Qin Shujian did not show any surprise, but was as plain as ever.

Subsequently.

He asked again: "Nanfeng Hou invited Qin to come this time, I don't know what is important?"

"Invite Sect Master Qin over this time, there are two things in total. ”

Zhang Yi stretched out two fingers and said.

"First, during this period of time, Sect Master Qin has been killing evil demons in the Nanfeng Mansion, so that my Nanfeng Mansion has been spared from the impact of demons, and Benhou still needs to wait for the people of the Nanfeng Mansion, thank you. ”

"As for the second—"

Speaking of this, Nanfenghou's tone obviously paused, and his smiling face became solemn.

"Ben Hou hopes that Sect Master Qin can help, and you and I will participate in the grand event!"

The words fell.

Qin Shujian's face also changed slightly.

Participating in the grand event, this is said in a good direction.

If you want to say it in a bad direction, it is to ask him to rebel with him.

As early as when Zhang Yi wanted to see him, he had some vague speculations in his heart, but he couldn't be sure too much.

But Qin Shujian didn't expect it either.

Zhang Yi will say it so bluntly, and he will pull him into the gang so openly.

Although he was shocked in his heart, he also remained calm on the surface: "Nanfeng Hou is only afraid that he asked the wrong person, Qin Mou is just a small idle monk, how can he be so valued."

If nothing else, I'll take my leave. ”

"Sect Master Qin, don't be in a hurry to leave, let Ben Hou say a few more words first. Seeing that Qin Shujian was leaving, Zhang Yi also opened his mouth to stay.

He didn't continue until he saw the other person sit down again.

"Now that the emperor has fallen, although the prince Xi Yang has ascended to the throne, he has no means to control the world. ”

"And this marquis now rules the entire Nanfeng Mansion, and among all the princes, his strength should be the first. ”

"The only thing that Benhou lacks now is the talent of a formation Dao master like Sect Master Qin, if Sect Master Qin is willing to help, when he is successful, Benhou will definitely treat him as a high-ranking official.

Even, it is not impossible to make Yuanzong the only orthodox sect in the world. ”

Zhang Yi kept throwing olive branches.

For Qin Shujian, he really values it.

It is not only about the achievements of the other party today, but also about the growth of the other party in the future.

As far as he knew.

Qin Shujian has only been cultivating for three or five years since he set foot in cultivation, and he is already a great cultivator of the Shenwu Realm.

At this cultivation speed, if you want to break through the heavenly people, I'm afraid it won't be long.

Not to mention.

The other party rumored that it was the reincarnation of a great power.

Such a strong person, once he breaks through the celestials, will definitely not stop at the level of the first celestial, and there is still a great chance to be able to regain the peak of the past.

This kind of future is likely to be a powerful genius powerhouse.

Zhang Yi naturally wanted to win him over.

Even if it doesn't talk about the future.

Just now, the other party is also invincible in the True Domain, and he is a Formation Dao Grandmaster comparable to the Heavenly Man.

In addition, Yuanzong's strength is not weak, which is exactly what he needs right now.

It is for these reasons.

Zhang Yicai wanted to find a way to drag Qin Shujian onto his ship.

The other side.

Regarding Zhang Yi's promise, Qin Shujian's heart was also a little shaken.

The only orthodox sect in the world.

If Zhang Yi is really given the throne, then Yuanzong will override all the sects and become a truly supreme existence.

It's just—

The premise of all this is based on the fact that Zhang Yi can ascend to the throne.

But in Qin Shujian's eyes, the other party may not have this opportunity.

So.

After Zhang Yi finished speaking, he just thought about it, then shook his head and said: "Thank you for your love, it's just that Qin knows how many pounds and taels he has, but I'm afraid it will be difficult to take on the heavy responsibility." ”

"Sect Master Qin doesn't have to refuse in a hurry, what Ben Hou says now will be just as valid in the future, when Sect Master Qin thinks about it, he can come to Nanfeng Mansion at any time. ”

Zhang Yi smiled indifferently, and was not angry at Qin Shujian's refusal.

"However, Ben Hou still wants to remind me that although Xiao Chengfeng is powerful, the foundation of Beiyun Mansion is too shallow after all, and the power of Dazhao is also deeply rooted, not like my Nanfeng Mansion.

Ben Hou is not afraid to say an arrogant word, among the princes today, I am afraid that there is no one who can compare with my Nanfeng Mansion.

Ben Hou doesn't ask you to give an answer now, Sect Master Qin can carefully consider one or two. ”

"Okay, let's talk about this matter after Qin thinks clearly. ”

Qin Shujian nodded and gave an ambiguous answer.

What did the other party's last words mean, it was nothing more than that he thought that he would be on Beiyunhou's side, so he took a preventive shot in advance.

on this.

He didn't bother to defend anything.

As for Zhang Yi, after hearing Qin Shujian's answer, he didn't talk too much about this issue.

A lot of things just need to be said in a sentence or two, and a few things can be pointed out.

If you say too much, it is likely to backfire.

At least in Zhang Yi's opinion, if Qin Shujian wants to stand in line, Nanfeng Mansion is also the first choice.

This is his confidence.

It is also the strength that the South Wind Mansion has now.

After that, the two chatted a little more, but the topic did not come to the matter of standing in line.

In the end, Qin Shujian suddenly got up and arched his hand: "Qin has other things, and there has been a lot of delay here, so I will leave first." ”

"Okay, Ben Hou is looking forward to the next meeting with Sect Master Qin. ”

Zhang Yi nodded, then clapped his hands, and an attendant came in from outside.

"You send one to Sect Master Qin for Ben Hou. ”

"The little one obeys. The attendant bowed down and received the command.

Qin Shujian gave up his hand, followed behind the attendant, and left the lobby directly.

About a quarter of an hour or so passed.

Originally, there was only Zhang Yi in the lobby, but I don't know when Gao Jing had walked in from the side.

"Master Hou, Qin Shujian obviously doesn't have the idea of standing with us, and now let him go back, I'm afraid that there will be a suspicion of letting the tiger return to the mountain. ”

"There are some things that don't need to be rushed, he's a smart guy and he should know how to choose. ”

Zhang Yi's expression became indifferent, and he no longer had the pleasant appearance of Fang Cai.

"If he is not careful to stand in line now, it will be a broken end, if he agrees, Ben Hou will have to worry about whether it is a secret son deliberately sent by Xiao Chengfeng.

Today's approach is a lot more reassuring. ”

"Then Master Hou thinks that Qin Shujian will really be on our side?" Gao Jing asked.

"If he chooses to get involved, it is much safer to stand on our side than on Xiao Chengfeng's side, if he really wants to stay out of the matter, then make other plans.

But—"

Zhang Yi's eyes suddenly burst with murderous intent, and his voice became cold: "If he insists on being an enemy of my Nanfeng Mansion, then don't blame Ben Hou for being ruthless." ”

Not friends.

That's the enemy.

He has never been merciful to his enemies.

Especially an enemy with infinite potential like Qin Shujian, if he doesn't get rid of it as soon as possible, it will be a big trouble when the other party grows up.

Just now, Zhang Yi didn't have the idea of leaving Qin Shujian behind, but he didn't do it in the end.

Ultimately.

Still not sure, take the other party down.

Because this is not a spiritual domain, nor a large domain, but a small true domain.

Although he is a powerhouse in the realm of heaven and man, in the true realm, he is only a monk who is equivalent to condensing the Cosmos Heavenly Lock, and when it comes to true strength, he may not be Qin Shujian's opponent.

If you really do it, you can't take the other party down.

That would be tantamount to pushing this strong man to his opposite.

Something like that.

Zhang Yi will not do it easily.

Gao Jing on the side also fell silent when he heard this.

He could also guess what his own Hou Ye thought in his heart, plus Qin Shujian had already left at this time, and it was too late to say anything, so he simply didn't say more.

As for Qin Shujian.

After leaving Nanfeng Hou Beppu, he directly entered the Hirakawa Mansion through the portal of teleportation.
