What Lu Jian said to Nuwa Niangniang to the "promise of the two emperors of the demon clan" is actually an unfulfilled promise to her. When the two demon clans were in the war, Nuwa Niangniang had not yet become holy. Emperor Jun and the Eastern Emperor once invited Fu Xi and Nuwa, who were also strong men of the demon clan, to join the Heavenly Realm, but they were both politely refused. The second emperor of the demon clan did not give up, and then asked for help many times, Nuwa Niangniang couldn't bear it, and promised to help the demon clan at the last critical moment. Later, Fu Xi calculated that the way of heaven was about to be relisted, and the two demon clans were in decline, so instead of going to participate in meaningless battles to bury their lives, it was better to stay useful, and try to preserve and continue the luck of the demon clan afterwards.

In the end, when the demons fought a decisive battle, the second emperor of the demon clan failed to find Fuxi and Nuwa, who were deliberately avoided, nor did they borrow Fuxi's river map, and finally lost both with the demons, and the second emperor of the demon clan also fell in the battle of Wuxian Mountain.

Now that Lu Jian has raised this matter, he has the intention of asking the "parties" to compensate as the "family of the sufferer".

Nuwa Niangniang's body exuded a faint coercion, which made Lu Niangniang gradually tighten, but his face did not move.

"Niangniang, this time I dare to bring up the old things again, I have no other intentions, just to ask Niangniang to remember the old feelings of the same clan, and lend me the map of the mountains and rivers to get rid of the old enemy of the demon god clan, so as not to destroy the souls. ”

"Old feelings?" Nuwa Niangniang's eyes became more and more cold, and she suddenly withdrew her coercion and said, "Okay, this diagram is borrowed from you, just to end this cause and effect of the year." ”

After Nuwa finished speaking, a translucent picture appeared in front of Lu Press, suspended in the air, glowing with faint colored light. Lu Jian knew that this was the map of the mountains and rivers, and he was overjoyed, gave a deep salute, took the picture, and left.

Nuwa Niangniang looked at Lu Quan's distant figure, a sneer with deep meaning appeared on the corner of her mouth, but her thoughts returned to the scene of the Eight Views Palace.

After the group of saints agreed, the Yuan Shi Tianzun and the two Western Saints each left the Eight Views Palace, and just as she walked out of the palace, she heard the Tongtian Sect Master shouting: "Niang Niang stays." ”

Nuwa Niangniang turned around, but saw the Tongtian Sect Master looking at her and said: "When I went back to Jinjiling last time, Poor Dao confronted the two senior brothers. ”

Nuwa Niangniang secretly measured the intentions of the Tongtian Sect Master, and said: "Brother Dao is polite, I had a gambling contract with the Son of Heaven back then, if the saint fights in the killing and robbery, I need to help the party with fewer people to check and balance and resolve the fight." In fact, when Brother Dao and Yuan Shi Tianzun fought against the two saints of the Western Sect, I also rushed here, and if Brother Li Dao wanted to make a move, I had to help the Western Sect. I didn't care about the covenant in the past, but I never wanted to get involved in the dispute over the killing of the saints in the misfortune because of this, and I couldn't be alone anymore. ”

The Tongtian Sect Master had already learned about this from Zhang Zixing, and Nuwa Niangniang was also a key to balancing the forces of the two sides in the Zhuxian Array, so he smiled and said: "Senior Brother once said that the general trend of the Heavenly Dao, the Xuandao and the Humanity are all in the calamity, even if you and I are saints, we can't stay out of the matter, how can we be alone? ”

Nuwa Niangniang guessed that the Tongtian Sect Master had this request, and sighed: "In the past, it was said that a promise was lost, and even now it is said that it is like a setback! It's just that, Brother Tongtian Dao, even if I fight with one of the saints twice, you alone will not be able to defeat the two saints. ”

If it weren't for the Taiqing Order, I am afraid that there would still be one enemy and three enemies! The Tongtian Sect Master secretly calculated, and said in his mouth: "You and I saints are all indestructible bodies, and even if we are defeated, there will be no hindrance. But this time, it is a battle between the subordinates and the luck of the sect, and if the defeat is too bad, it will really hinder the skin. Niangniang only has to contain one saint for me, and I should take care of the rest. ”

Nuwa Niangniang nodded, and the Tongtian Sect Master was overjoyed: "Niangniang's kindness, the poor road is remembered in my heart, I thank you here in advance, and no matter how the victory or defeat of the Zhuxian Array is in the future, the poor road will be repaid." ”

Nuwa Niangniang said a few polite words, and then returned to the palace. After thinking about it this time, I felt more and more inappropriate, when the Son of Heaven set such conditions in the Nuwa Temple, it caused him to run back and forth, and finally got involved in the battle of the saints. Could it be ...... But now that the general trend has been achieved, even if he helps the sect in the Zhuxian array, the great merchants and the sect will inevitably be defeated, and in the end, it will be the Zhou Xingshang who is counted by the six saints to be destroyed.

Nuwa Niangniang wanted to be here, and she was no longer suspicious, and said to a cadre: "Today, the six sages of Bajing Palace have agreed that the battle of the human world will be man-made. All Xuan Dao Immortals or Dao Practitioners are not allowed to participate in the war, and all Dao techniques are forbidden. If you are inevitably contaminated with calamity, you must meditate and practice, and you are not allowed to leave this place for half a step, and those who violate it will be severely punished. ”

Everyone obeyed the order, only Li Dai and the "junior sister" seemed to be preoccupied.

Chao Ge, Zhang Zixing received a handwritten letter from the Tongtian Sect Master sent by Yuan Hong, in which he stated the decision of the sage of the Eight Views Palace. From now on, the sect will do its best to set up the Ten Thousand Immortals Great Array and the Zhuxian Array, and face off against the Sect of Exposition and the Western Sect. Now the Tongtian Sect Master is summoning the Sect Interception Immortals from all over the country to gather in the Nameless Immortal Mountain, presided over by the three disciples of the Holy Mother of Wudang, the Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit, and the Holy Mother of the Turtle Spirit, and perform the Great Array of Ten Thousand Immortals. At the same time, Zhang Zixing, Kong Xuan, and Xingtian were invited to come to Biyou Palace, together with the Duobao Dao people, and the Tongtian Sect Master to retreat together, participate in the Zhuxian Array, and practice the Four Elephants Zhuxian Array.

The letter also stated that the battle of the human world was crucial and that caution was required. If Zhang Zixing planned the Shang and Zhou wars, he would have no leisure for the time being, so Kong Xuan and Xingtian could come first. Yuan Hong also brought a pass to the Shangqing token given by the Tongtian Sect Master, with this order, he could travel unhindered in the Biyou Palace, and the order also had a strange mana, which could take Zhang Zixing to the secret retreat realm between the Tongtian Sect Master and the three major Xuan Immortals, and practice the formation map together.

Zhang Zixing knew that the Tongtian Sect Master had made up his mind to go all out and plan the final decisive battle behind closed doors, so he immediately accepted the Shangqing token, and invited Kong Xuan and Xingtian to come and go to Biyou Palace with Yuan Hong, while he summoned Wen Zhong, Shang Rong, Bi Gan, Fang Wei and others to come and plan this human world war.

At this time, in the emergency supplement of the "Great Shang Quarterly", the oath of "The Battle of the Human World, but by Man" jointly issued by Shang and Zhou had spread all over the world, and it was noted that it had been promised by the immortals. Not only the Great Shang and the Western Zhou Dynasty, but the whole world has entered a state of emergency preparedness, including the princes of various places, the mastermind and military discussions are continuous, the soldiers and horses are frequently dispatched and drilled, and the war is about to break out.

The news of the changes of the princes of all parties came to the Great Shang Dynasty, and the Son of Heaven repeatedly convened the civil and military forces to discuss countermeasures, some people proposed that the princes of all walks of life should be appeased and concentrate on dealing with Ji Fa, while others believed that the princes of the Quartet, including Jiang Huan Chu, had always secretly colluded with Ji Fa, and it was absolutely impossible to retreat by appeasement, let alone the alien races such as the ghost party...... For a while, the Son of Heaven could not make a decision, so he could only order Sanshan Pass, Chentang Pass, and Yousoul Pass to strengthen the garrison, and the military focus was placed on the five passes in the west. Regardless of whether Ji Fa attacked first or the big merchants attacked first, the victory or defeat of the first battle was crucial, if the big merchants won, the morale would be greatly boosted, and the princes of all walks of life would be afraid and did not dare to move lightly; if they were defeated, it would not only damage their morale, but also very likely to lead to an unfavorable situation in which the princes of all walks of life took advantage of the situation to make trouble.

At this time, Zihong's performance was quite active, not only actively participating in the military discussion, but also putting forward a lot of opinions on the construction surname, which was unanimously praised by the ministers. And Zijiao only occasionally flashed inspiration, although Wen Zhong's appreciation, but the discerning courtiers could see that whether it was ability, performance, or even the status in the heart of the Son of Heaven, Prince Zhongyong was far inferior to Prince Hong of Pingxi.

Zijiao and Zihong are both the Son of Heaven in the time of King Shou, by the wife Jiang family, although after the registration of King Shou, Jiang was named the queen mother, but strictly speaking, these two princes can only be regarded as "concubines". This situation is the same as the rebellion and the death of Yue Wang Qi, Yue Wang Qi and the Son of Heaven are both born to the queen of the first emperor Emperor B, but when Yue Wang Qi was born, his mother was only the side room of Emperor B, and the Son of Heaven was born after his mother was already the queen, so the name is justified, and he was finally made the crown prince.

However, since the Son of Heaven ascended the throne, neither Empress Jiang, nor later Empress Su, or now Empress Shang, has come out of nowhere, that is to say, there are only these two sons under the knee of the Son of Heaven. Originally, the brother of the Son of Heaven was also eligible to inherit the throne, but judging from the attitude of the former emperor B towards his brother Bigan, it was unlikely. What's more, when Qin Wangyan, the only brother of the Son of Heaven, was the prince, he also united with Wei Ziqi to suppress King Shou, and after Wei Ziqi rebelled, Wei Ziyan was also suspected by the Son of Heaven and sent to a remote place. From this point of view, the crown prince will inevitably fall on one of the two princes. And this person is very likely to be Prince Hong of Pingxi.

This kind of judgment also made more and more people move closer to Zihong, Pingxi Wangfu was crowded for a while, and Zhongyong Wangfu was deserted, and few people came to the door.

At dusk, Zhang Zixing was reviewing the chapters in the imperial study, and Shang Qingjun was helping to sort it out. Zihong begged to see him, brought a cup of ginseng and chicken soup tonic, and said that he made it by himself, especially for his father to nourish his body.

Shang Qingjun praised: "Pingxi Wang Guo and even filial piety!"

Zhang Zixing ordered the palace maid to serve the ginseng soup, took a sip, a trace of coldness flashed in her eyes, and her brows furrowed slightly.

Zihong had been paying close attention to his father's expression, and when he saw him like this, his heart couldn't help jumping, and he said, "Father, but the soup stewed by the sons and daughters doesn't taste good?"

Zhang Zixing smacked his lips and said, "Although this chicken is a little too old to stew, it can still be eaten." ”

Shang Qingjun said with a smile: "King Pingxi's filial piety can be learned from heaven and earth, but Your Majesty is still picky, is it true that this emperor is really the imperial chef?"

Zhang Zixing laughed and drank the soup as soon as he drank it, Zihong saw that he drank the ginseng soup without hesitation, breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "Father, rest assured, the son will pay attention to the heat of the stewed soup next time, and he will not disappoint his father." ”

Zhang Zixing praised with a smile: "The emperor has performed well recently, and this time he has been reborn, which is indeed very different from before, and he can take on a big responsibility in the future." It's your eldest brother's suburb, who is just greedy for the love of men and women, and is good at immortal cultivation, and he can't go out behind closed doors, how can he look like a dignified son?"

Zihong hurriedly said that his brother was just confused for a while, and there would be a time to wake up. Zhang Zixing secretly sneered, praised a few words, and ordered him to step down. Not long after Zihong left, Prince Zhongyong came to the imperial study to ask for a meeting, and was summoned by the Son of Heaven.

Zhang Zixing ordered the palace people to retreat and asked Zijiao: "Why is the emperor empty-handed today? Why don't you follow your imperial brother's example and stew a cup of tonic with your own hands to take it with the widow to show filial piety?"

Zijiao smiled bitterly: "Father, the son is dull, he only knows how to follow his father's instructions and stay at home. I'm going to ...... next time."

"No need for next time!" Zhang Zixing sneered: "Could it be that you also want to be like a student, get a cup of poisonous soup, and send your father to die early?"

Zijiao was shocked, and even Shang Qingjun on the side changed his face, it turned out that Zihong's ginseng soup just now was poisonous!

Not only is it poisonous, but the poisonous surname is not simple, when Zhang Zixing frowned, he realized the poisonous surname in the soup. This poison is not only colorless, odorless, formless and traceless, but also very secretive, even ordinary immortals cannot detect it when it does not attack. Zhang Zixing even sensed a certain familiar "taste" from this poison, and this poison was absolutely extraordinary! It was very likely that it came from the hands of some "old acquaintance."

In fact, Zhang Zixing gave Zihong a chance to confess openly and secretly, but unfortunately Zihong was never obsessed, and today's poisonous soup incident has strengthened Zhang Zixing's corresponding decision to Zihong.

Although Shang Qingjun saw his calm appearance, he knew that he was poisoned, and he was always uneasy in his heart, and hurriedly said: "Husband, how do you feel? Do you want to take Sister Hanzhi's elixir to get rid of poison?"

"It doesn't matter. Zhang Zixing shook his head, gave Shang Qingjun a reassuring look, and asked: "Zihong returned to Chaoge this time, I am afraid that it is not just to be ordered to promote the battle of the Chengren Realm, then the exposition of the sect must have a bigger plan." Jiao'er, you know this matter, and you are never allowed to leak half a sentence to anyone! If Zihong is really hopeless, you are not allowed to tolerate it. You must know that this is the most critical moment, and if you make a slight mistake, you are in danger of losing your country, and you must not become a sinner in the world because of your personal feelings!"

Zijiao sighed secretly, and respectfully accepted the order, Zhang Zixing asked again: "Haven't you been closed in the mansion all the time?

Zijiao said: "Erchen is bold, dare to ask where the national teacher Xiaoyaozi is?"

Zhang Zixing and Shang Qingjun glanced at each other, secretly surprised, and said, "Why are you looking for that Xiaoyaozi?

Zijiao lowered his head and said: "Don't hide it from my father, my son received the Shizun Flying Sword Transmission, and I have to secretly start before the big war to get rid of Xiaoyaozi." ”

Poisoning the Son of Heaven and assassinating Xiaoyaozi knows that it is not so simple for these two "sons" to come back!

Zhang Zixing's mind was racing, and he made a decision, with a flick of his hand, the Violet Barrier was quietly released, enveloping the entire imperial study silently, with his current strength, such a means of exertion, only the suburb of the True Immortal was naturally undetectable.

Zhang Zixing sneered: "I am the supreme son of heaven in the human world, the pillar of the great business, the wise and scheming of the free son, and the most important planner of my big business." Now you want to assassinate the national teacher Xiaoyaozi, the original plan of expounding the religion is to start from the inside, poison the king, destroy the good ministers, and disintegrate the great merchants. If this plan is successful, the Western Zhou Dynasty can easily defeat the big merchants, and the good poison plan will be good!"

Zijiao bowed his head and was silent, not daring to look directly at his gaze, Zhang Zixing asked Senran: "Do you really want to kill Xiaoyaozi?"

Zijiao replied: "Enlightened father, although the exposition of the religion has its own plans, but the relationship between the master and my master and apprentice is not false, I want to repay the teacher's kindness with this, and after this matter, it has nothing to do with the exposition of the teaching." ”

"You are so pedantic! Guangchengzi really has a master-apprentice affection for you, but from the very beginning, he has bad intentions in teaching. In the past, he colluded with the demon girl to make a rebellion and forced you to leave Chaoge, and then pretended to show goodwill and accept you as a disciple, but his real intention was to use you to achieve a conspiracy! If this were not the case, why didn't Guangchengzi destroy the demon girl in the first place? lest you make such a big mistake of killing your mother?"

Zijiao knelt down with a "poof", knelt on the ground, and said in a low voice: "Erchen also dared to ask Shizun, and Shizun said that this is the will of heaven in the killing and robbery, and it cannot be ......."

"Shut up!" Zhang Zixing got up, came to Zijiao's side, kicked him to the ground with one kick, and added a few more kicks: "What bullshit providence! For the sake of the so-called providence, your mother and those two aunts deserve to die? For the sake of Heaven's will, you can kill your father and mother, and then give away the entire big business, so that thousands of people who originally lived and worked in peace and contentment can return to the life of bitter slaves? If someone wants to kill you under the pretext of Providence, should you also be killed?"

Zijiao didn't dare to resist, and what Zhang Zixing said also made him really palpitate. For this "eldest son", Zhang Zixing has tested him many times, and finally determined his surname, and he really has some expectations for him in his heart. Now he is angry and indisputable, but he is very measured. If Zihong had been replaced, it would never have been like this.

Shang Qingjun hurriedly pulled Zhang Zixing back, Zhang Zixing looked at Zijiao who didn't dare to move, and snorted coldly: "The days are impermanent, and with the current trend of killing and robbing the heavens, even a saint is difficult to figure out, so there is a Xuandao war that is about to start." Guangchengzi is just a golden immortal, this time in the midst of the killing, he doesn't know if he can get rid of the misfortune, how can he pretend to know the will of heaven?"

If Zijiao was still reprimanded by him and was afraid before, now he began to be really surprised, and looked at Zhang Zixing, just in time to meet the cold lightning in his father's eyes.

Zijiao suddenly felt a chill, a chill from the depths of his heart, which he could only feel when facing a strong man whose strength was far superior to his own. Although he had similar feelings when he showed his strength to Master Guangchengzi, it was far less than it is now. Is it the power of the Son of Heaven of the father, or the poison of the ...... Zihong, the origin is extraordinary, very powerful, if it is attacked, even if it is an immortal body, it cannot be resisted. Do you know why I am not afraid of your brother's poison?"

Zijiao shook his head, but his heartbeat couldn't help but accelerate, judging from his father's tone and what he said, he faintly felt that there seemed to be a big secret about to be revealed, and cold sweat couldn't help but ooze from his forehead, even if it was a true immortal cultivator, he couldn't suppress the tension in his heart at this moment.

And Zhang Zixing's next sentence really made Zijiao's heart agitated, and he could no longer suppress his surprise.

"Do you know that your mother Empress Jiang is not dead?"
