Chapter 392: The sword comes out and the dragon roars, a stormy meeting
"No wonder the royal family pronounced the verdict so quickly. If it takes too long, I'm worried that I will use the fourth-level monsters and the remains of the snake king to refine the puppet."
Lu Changan couldn't help but realize when he saw the compensation conditions in the edict.
As the ruler and rule-setter of the Daewoo Kingdom, the royal family’s method of making compensation decisions is considered moderate and leaves room for maneuver.
Anywhere in the world of immortality, the death of a Nascent Soul Lord is a matter of huge impact.
Lu Changan killed the fourth-level snake king in Dashan Mountain. The approximate result has been investigated, and he is on the wrong side.
Under the rules of Daewoo, there is no problem in settling the matter with financial compensation.
Zhenjun Yuanying is beyond all living beings. After all, he belongs to the top privileged class.
If an ordinary monk caused a big disaster and did not have the protection of the true king, it would naturally be a "blood debt". The royal family would ask the faction to directly hand over the murderer and offer a reward for his arrest.
In his early years, the evil cultivator Liang Shaotian ran away in such a mess, with everyone shouting to beat him.
Otherwise, there is no need for the royal family to end the matter personally. The hostile forces and the royal family’s scoundrels will take advantage of the general situation to exert pressure and take the opportunity to carve up the benefits.
It's just that I made too much before, and now I have to spit out some to appease the "sufferers" who have suffered heavy losses.
Over the past thousand years, the Dayu royal family has records of two or three visits by Yuanying monks, which shows its profound heritage.
Other major forces are not in the middle stage of Yuanying, and most of them have one or two true kings.
Before Lu Changan came to Dayu Country, there was a saying in this land:
All the Nascent Soul forces in Dayu Kingdom join forces and have little chance of winning against the royal family.
Luchang Lu paused and analyzed:
“The pressure on the royal family has never been in the country, but in the ‘Baqi Mountains’ adjacent to the camp and the ‘Da Luo Kingdom’ that once split off.”
The strategy of the Daewoo royal family is in line with its balancing strategy, while not exceeding the bottom line of the Yunxia Sect.
Jiang Ziyan nodded and said: "These Ziyans all understand, does Dalong have any specific plans?"
Lu Changan said thoughtfully.
First of all, the royal family’s verdict complies with the rules, and along with public opinion and the general trend, forces such as Dashan Mountain will loyally support it.
“In this way, I give this response to the royal family and Dashan Mountain. The death of Chiyou Snake King was caused by our sect, Xiang Zhenjun, in self-defense. The Yunxia Sect is willing to take out a thousand low-grade spiritual stones to express condolences and condolences to the friend sect.”
“First, when we were hunting the fourth-level demonic bird that day, the Red Nether Snake King lurked over and attacked first. Ben Zhenjun acted in self-defense.”
“The Daewoo royal family needs to consolidate its own forces and not push the forces of the Three Yuan Yings too hard. Therefore, the royal family’s verdict leaves room for maneuver and gives the two parties room for negotiation and bargaining.”
In her opinion, even if compensation is given for killing the strongest Snake King Ancestor in Dashan Mountain, the Yunxia Sect will make a profit as a whole.
Out of the two, the royal family has absolute authority and strength in Dayu.
"As for the second point, about the death of Senior Brother Yunlan, Ziyan went to the royal family back then to ask for an explanation. However, the chance battles in the Ancient You Palace have always been about life and death, and the death of senior brother did not occur in the Kingdom of Dayu. The royal family There is no reason to intervene."
There are two members of the royal family in the middle Yuan Ying period. In addition, they have a special background coming from the Great Jin Immortal Dynasty, and they also have unknown trump cards.
Not to mention, the other three major families in Dayu Kingdom are all supported by the royal family, marry each other, and are semi-dependent on their own families.
“Keep dragging, and the bargaining range will be larger. Respond to the royal family, saying that Ben Zhenjun is still in seclusion and has no time to go to the imperial city.”
“Secondly, the death of brother Yun Lan was a plot by Dashan. Our sect suffered heavy losses, and we also asked the Dayu royal family to help seek justice.”
Zhenjun Zixia smiled, feeling a little guilty in her heart.
“In addition, make a fuss about two things and declare them to the outside world.”
“Dalong, if it doesn’t work out, I will use Zi Yan’s half of the fourth-level monster materials as compensation, plus two or three properties belonging to affiliated forces. This will not cause much loss to our sect, and it will also give the royal family a small share.”
With enough time, the source of the evil spirit will gradually fade away, and with the help of corresponding methods, it can be resolved faster.
Lu Changan did not expect this incident to reverse the situation.
His apparent power is similar to that of the Valley of the Beast King, and can suppress the entire Wei Dao Alliance countries.
Senior Brother Yunlan, the former Taoist companion, has been dead for so many years. Instead of avenging him, he even used it as a bargaining chip.
“The royal family’s compensation conditions are obviously aimed at you, Dalong. We don’t want our sect to give birth to a fourth-level puppet master, continue to grow bigger, and disrupt the balance of power.”
Hence, all the major forces must abide by the rules of the game in Daewoo.
…
“It is just used as a bargaining chip in negotiations, and we cannot let Orochi Mountain become a victim. If Orochi Mountain does not admit it, let the royal family trace the ‘source of evil spirit’.”
“It can indeed be used as a bargaining chip.”
The source of evil spirits involves cause and effect. There are indeed few methods in the world to completely resolve it, but it is not omnipotent.
The Ancient Youdian Palace faces the entire Central Realm, and there are also monks from outside the realm involved. There are not a few Danjie and Nascent Soul monks from Dayu Kingdom who have entered it. It is impossible for the royal family to seek justice for every deceased person.
“Zi Yan doesn’t have to be too afraid of the royal family, as long as she understands its bottom line.”
It is definitely unrealistic to resist forcefully.
Zhenjun Zixia intends to abide by the rules of the game, but he must bargain on the price.
Jiang Ziyan said thoughtfully: "The first strategy is fine."
Zhenjun Zixia's eyes were filled with worry, thinking about how to deal with it.
If Juan was still alive and learned about the second strategy, I wonder how he would feel.
Lu Changan first taught Jiang Ziyan how to chop with a knife.
“A thousand low-grade spiritual stones?”
Zhenjun Zixia was stunned. The blow was too harsh and was simply an insult. He sent the beggar away.
However, Jiang Ziyan still understood Lu Changan's intention and sent someone to respond to the matter to the royal family and Dashan Mountain.
…
Two days later, the royal family and the top brass of Dashan Mountain received responses from the Yunxia Sect.
The two true kings of Dashan Mountain were furious about this. Unexpectedly, the Yunxia Sect would defeat him and investigate the cause of True Lord Yunlan's death that year.
It is even more insulting to express condolences to a friend with a thousand low-grade spiritual stones.
The senior royal family members responded with surprise and looked at each other.
To this end, Emperor Yu appointed several elders to discuss countermeasures.
“Acting strategically like this is not like the style of True Lord Zixia.”
Yu Yuanjin of the royal family frowned slightly.
Based on his understanding of Jiang Ziyan, this fairy is still concerned about face, and will not be so rogue or cunning.
“Ahem! It must be that kid, he is really difficult to deal with.”
Tie Suan Zhenjun smiled and did not propose any countermeasures.
He didn't want to lose his vitality and longevity on Xiang Dalong, a stranger, for something neither big nor small.
Xiang Dalong is not openly disobedient. His strategy is to delay and slowly negotiate for a lower price.
Facing the Yunxia Sect with the Three Yuanying sect, the Dayu royal family cannot put too much pressure on it, as this involves the stability of the country's immortal cultivation world.
In the days that followed, the royal family acted as an intermediary and allowed representatives of the two sects to negotiate together in the imperial city.
The mother-in-laws on both sides argued that their mother-in-law was right, bargained over the price, and got into a long war of words.
Unknowingly, it took more than half a year.
The representatives of both parties in the negotiation were exhausted mentally and physically, and no consensus was reached.
In the second half of the negotiation, Yunxia Sect even bluntly stated that the materials for the fourth-level monsters and the snake king's slough had been consumed and could not be used as compensation.
There are also rumors coming out from the top of the Yunxia Sect that Xiang Zhenjun failed to attack the fourth-level puppet refining master and wasted a lot of materials.
…
Yunxia Sect, underground palace dojo.
Lu Changan and Jiang Ziyan stood side by side in the fighting arena, secretly testing a three-foot-tall flying tiger puppet with red and black fur.
The Flying Tiger Puppet is as fast as lightning, controls the flying sand and black wind, and its whistling sound is shocking to the soul. The power it exudes is enough to frighten a real person in the late stage of pill formation.
“Zi Yan, thanks to the precious materials provided by the sect, otherwise the quasi-fourth-level flying tiger puppet would not be able to be successfully created so smoothly.”
Lu Changan handed the puppet control token to Fairy Zixia.
Zhenjun Zixia only has half of the body materials of a fourth-level monster, but the sect and she herself have a lot of treasure reserves. Coupled with the purchases from various channels during the demonic disaster, it took two years to gather the materials for a quasi-fourth-level puppet.
This is the influence of the sect's power. It would be difficult for casual cultivators to be so efficient.
“Dalong has become a quasi-fourth-level puppet master at this age. With his longevity in the Nascent Soul stage, he will become a puppet master sooner or later.”
Zhenjun Zixia was satisfied with the strength of the fourth-level puppet and praised it happily.
There is also a success rate in refining a puppet. If you are not careful, the quality of the designed puppet may be degraded.
Fortunately, Lu Changan is already a quasi-fourth-level puppet master, and he has the guidance of Master Wei. This time he builds it, which is a rare opportunity to practice.
“Thanks to the disciples of the sect. In the past few years during the demonic disaster, the quality of a certain family’s military formation puppets has all been upgraded to the third level of high quality.”
Lu Changan said with a smile.
In the previous puppet army formation, the peripheral puppets were all high-quality products in the third-order middle grade. Thanks to the magic disaster and the efforts of the sect, they were all upgraded to the third-order high grade.
The power of the puppet army formation has greatly increased. The true fourth-level blue-armored puppet is trapped in it, and it is not easy to deal with it.
However, the limitations of the puppet military formation are still there. Only positional warfare and defensive warfare can exert its strength to compete with the veteran Yuanying.
Once you get into a wandering or chasing battle, you will be powerless.
Secondly, only top puppet masters can unleash the full power of this puppet array.
In view of this, Fairy Zixia gave up the idea of entrusting Lu Changan to refine the puppet array.
Building such a puppet array requires a huge amount of materials, and even with Lu Changan's wealth, it took hundreds of years.
…
Lu Changan said silently in his heart, thanking True Lord Yunlan for his sponsorship.
The hidden space ring obtained from Juan’s corpse brought him a big surprise.
Otherwise, the true fourth-order puppets and puppet military formations would not be fully reinforced so quickly.
There are a lot of good things in Hu Ang’s space ring.
There are fourth-level treasure materials, elixirs, medicinal herbs, spiritual minerals, etc., including two top-grade magic weapons.
This man also secretly hid some third-level medium and high-grade monster materials, but did not exchange them for the sect.
In addition, Huaying Dan has two main ingredients, but they are not old enough.
There is actually a good chance of having a baby!
According to the memory of the Chiyou Snake King, True Lord Yun Lan died that year, and his fortune fell into the hands of Dashan Mountain. It was divided among several Nascent Souls, and much of it was sold off in other areas.
Lu Changan didn’t have much expectations at first, but he didn’t expect Hu Ang to be of such value.
Hu Ang came from the Hu family in the sect and was cultivated with great efforts, which was only one aspect.
Lu Changan speculated that Zhenjun Yunlan hid a small treasury during his lifetime and hid something from Fairy Zixia.
Otherwise, Hu Ang had only been practicing alchemy for a few decades and would not have such a foundation.
…
“Zi Yan, I will be traveling in a while.”
After completing the handover of the quasi-fourth-level puppet, Lu Changan expressed his plan.
“Dalong, you have to return...”
Zhenjun Zixia's expression changed slightly and she couldn't help but hold Lu Changan's hand.
Lu Changan didn’t know how much true feelings Zixia Fairy showed, but the charming and touching posture of this peerless fairy could easily make people feel pity for her. "Not so fast. I have some things to deal with this time, and it will take two or three years at most."
Lu Changan comforted him softly.
Now, he will be 397 years old and plans to fulfill Jing Wufeng’s promise before he is 400 years old.
After turning 400 years old, he will start repairing the transmission channel of Tinghai Pavilion and return to Daqing only when the time is right.
In the past six months, Lu Changan asked the true fourth-level puppet to go out and meet Jing Wufeng in private.
Jing Wufeng was temporarily out of trouble and seriously injured, and is now recuperating in Dayu Country.
Jing Wufeng found out the situation of the demon-sealed land in the forbidden area of the Central Region, and took advantage of the outbreak of demonic disasters and the dangerous environment of the forbidden area, causing heavy losses to those who tracked and suppressed them.
Jing Wufeng killed another early stage Nascent Soul; he also seriously injured a True Lord, and the Nascent Soul escaped from his body.
If there weren't two powerful opponents in the middle stage of Yuanying, his spatial magical power could slowly kill those in the early stage of Yuanying by taking advantage of the geographical environment.
“The dragon must keep his word.”
Hearing Lu Changan’s comfort, Zixia Zhenjun smiled and chose to believe.
Before giving birth to a baby, Lu Changan traveled for six or seven years, and even longer, and finally returned as promised.
Actually, there is no guarantee that Lu Changan will come back this time.
He and Jing Wufeng went to the forbidden area in the Central Territory, and may have been implicated in the latter's troubles.
However, the time limit was about to expire as we had sworn to sign the contract for a period of one year.
You can't get any benefits, and now you are unwilling to bear the agreed obligations.
Lu Changan has been in business for so many years, and has always borrowed and repaid favors. He has a good reputation, not to mention the restrictions of oaths.
Furthermore, Lu Changan and Jing Wufeng have a common enemy, such as Zhenjun Mingshui, and this hidden danger must be resolved sooner or later.
In addition, Lu Changan also wanted Jing Wufeng.
For example, the legendary method of "knotting a baby with the way of heaven".
According to the scene in the Heart Demon Tribulation, Jing Wufeng said that the method of forming a baby with Tiandao was not considered a secret to the top forces in Tianheng Continent.
Lu Changan wondered from this, whether Jing Wufeng in reality really had a way to form a baby through heaven?
…
half a month later.
Yunxia Sect announced to the outside world that the sect enshrined the "Eternal Lord Evergreen" and traveled abroad.
Lu Changan did not cover up his tracks and left the Yunxia Sect in an upright manner.
As a major suspect in killing the Chiyou Snake King, if he runs away secretly and leaves without saying goodbye, the pressure of responsibility will fall on the Yunxia Sect.
The royal family’s verdict is not over yet.
Lu Changan left openly. The news spread to the top brass of the royal family, making the current Emperor Yu furious.
Yunxia Sect's previous negotiations were waffling, bargaining, and without sincerity. The delay for so long has already made the royal family dissatisfied.
Now, as a suspect, instead of confronting the suspect in court, he takes the opportunity to travel around. Such behavior is to ignore Daewoo's rules and bring disgrace to the royal family.
Yulong Palace in Dayu Imperial City.
On the dragon chair, Yuhuang is wearing a purple and gold dragon robe [Gunlong robe]. He is full of heaven, has a Chinese character face, thick eyebrows and tiger eyes. He is about forty years old, with a sullen face.
The Ninth Five Supreme Being of the Great Universe Kingdom, a giant in the Central Realm in the middle stage of Nascent Soul, has a true dragon nobility that is not available at the same level.
“Back to Emperor Yu, Xiang Dalong has a fourth-level demon king and a puppet array at his side. Not only can the two Nascent Soul Lords not be able to stop him, they may even increase his arrogance.”
The old man in ancient robes sitting at the bottom of the seat stood up, bowed, and said in a cautious tone.
Over the past thousands or tens of thousands of years, there have been some arrogant kings who ignored the rules in Daewoo. However, after the royal family warned and punished them, most of them obeyed.
“Then let me, the emperor, personally invite this True Lord Evergreen.”
Emperor Yu's eyes were as bright as the sun, so that the elders of Yuanying present dared not look directly at him, and no one questioned him.
To invite True Lord Evergreen back, the only way is to send out the Nascent Soul Middle Stage.
“Yuhuang, we are willing to go.”
There are several elders here who have taken the initiative to ask for help.
There are people who are willing to go and join in the fun of this fight with a favorable wind.
Even among the giants in the Central Region, Yuhuang’s strength ranks high.
“Tie Suan, Yuan Jin, you two will accompany me to invite True Lord Changqing back.”
Yuhuang selected two Nascent Soul monks, Tiesuan Zhenjun and Tianyuan Sword Lord.
The former is a master of divination, and the latter is a sword cultivator, and he is the best in magical power fighting in the early stage of Nascent Soul.
“Tie Shuang, do you think this emperor can bring back the rebellious True Lord Evergreen?”
Flying out of Yulong Palace, Yuhuang asked lightly.
For many major decisions, the royal family will consult the Iron Calculator for his opinion.
“Ahem! If it’s just Xiang Zhenjun, it’ll be fine.”
Tie Suan Zhenjun paused and expressed his opinion:
"But if there is help from others, it may not be possible. It is said that Xiang Zhenjun knows the 'Jing Tianzhen' who stirred up the turmoil in the Central Territory. Not long ago, news came again from the forbidden area of the Central Territory that Jing Wufeng was raped by many people. During the encirclement and suppression of the Nascent Soul True Lord, another early Yuanying Lord was killed and one person was seriously injured. According to royal intelligence, Lord Jing Tianzhen has returned from the forbidden area in the Central Region..."
“Jing Tianzhenjun.”
Yuhuang looked serious and pondered, and he was also a little wary of this person.
Many achievements have confirmed that Jing Tianjun is fully capable of matching the strength of the mid-stage Nascent Soul, and may obtain the fake spiritual treasure in the Ancient Nether Palace.
Suddenly!
The sound of a dragon roaring and a sword ringing came from the mountain behind the royal family.
Invisible light blue dragon-patterned sword energy soared into the sky, setting off an ancient sword outlined with azure dragon patterns, and flew into Yuhuang's hands.
“Green Dragon Sword!”
The high-ranking monks from the royal family couldn't help but be moved.
It is said that this [Green Dragon Sword] was smelted from the fragments of lost ancient treasures and spiritual treasures, and was borrowed from one of the most precious dragon weapons in the Nine-Five-Year Plan of the Great Jin Immortal Dynasty.
This [Blue Dragon Sword] also suppresses the dragon's luck in Dayu, and is mainly responsible for killing.
In the past ten thousand years, many Yuanying True Lords have died from this sword, including many middle-stage Yuanying monks.
Even thousands of years ago, the ancestors of the Dayu royal family wielded this sword to expand their territory in Dayu, and once seriously injured and defeated the Yuanying monk.
This [Green Dragon Sword] once drank the blood of a great monk.
“This sword is enough.”
Tie Suan Zhenjun nodded solemnly.
The [Yuhuang] who masters this sword has extraordinary strength, and is hard to find an opponent in the Central Region.
With the help of the two of them, he can deal with the great monk in a short time.
…
On the outskirts of Yunxia Sect's influence, in a teahouse in a border fairy city.
Two people were sitting in the private room, chatting.
“Xiang Zhenjun, you met Jing openly and did not hide it. Aren’t you afraid of causing trouble?”
The man in a green silk shirt has light blue eyes, an upper-middle-class appearance, but he is quite attractive, and his expression is leisurely and free.
“Hehe, Xiang is in some trouble, and he wants to use the reputation of ‘Jing Tianzhen’ to relieve the pressure in Dayu Kingdom.”
Lu Changan took a sip of tea and said calmly.
“Xiang Zhenjun is really humble and low-key. With powerful means such as true fourth-level puppets, fourth-level demon kings, and puppet formations, he can still have the upper hand even against ordinary mid-stage Nascent Souls. Why borrow Jing’s reputation?”
Jing Wufeng laughed dumbly.
In the entire Great Abyss, he is the monk who knows Lu Changan’s strength best.
“Well, Xiang Zhenjun, don’t worry. With Jing’s current reputation in the Central Territory, as long as it’s not a big disaster, the major overlord forces should sell Jing a piece of noodles.”
Jing Wufeng had been recuperating in Dayu Country for a year and had a relatively clear understanding of Lu Changan's situation.
Originally I wanted to watch a show, but as long as the Evergreen True Monarch showed his intimidating power in the middle Nascent Soul stage, the royal family would not be too coercive.
At this moment, in the hinterland of Dayu Kingdom, three waves of powerful spiritual energy from the True Monarch Nascent Soul flew toward the border fairy city.
“Let’s go and talk up there.”
Jing Wufeng and Lu Changan looked at each other, left the money for tea, and disappeared into this fairy city.
…
Jiugang Heaven.
Lu Changan and Jing Wufeng waited for a moment, and three rays of Yuanying True Lord's escape light approached in the distance.
Two of them, Tianyuan Sword Lord and Iron Succe True Lord Lu Changan, both in the early Yuanying stage, knew each other.
The majestic dragon-robed emperor in the center was the first time Lu Changan saw him. It was no surprise that he was the current Emperor Yu, one of the most powerful men in the Central Region.
“Xiang was just out for a trip, but he actually asked Emperor Yu to move his dragon body and show up in person.”
Lu Changan bowed his hands in a salute, neither humble nor arrogant, and met the Tianyuan Sword Lord and the Iron Supremacy Lord again.
Zhenjun Tiesuan saw Jing Wufeng for the first time. After carefully observing his appearance, his heart suddenly sank.
“Xiang Zhenjun, please don’t leave Dayu Country until the verdict on the Chiyou Snake King case is over.”
Yuhuang raised his hand to stop him, his voice was majestic.
“Three Taoist friends from the Dayu royal family, Mr. Jing has important matters and needs Master Xiang to go out. I hope you can be accommodating.”
Jing Wufeng took a step forward, and in an instant there were signs of spatial overlap. Two figures in green clothes existed at the front and back at the same time, and the latter one turned into an afterimage.
Such a mysterious and unpredictable spatial footwork made the three true monarchs of the royal family secretly ashamed.
Those who are proficient in space mystics are difficult to kill. If there is a Nascent Soul mid-stage combat power, then it is even more unsuitable to provoke.
Emperor Yu's voice softened slightly and he reasoned: "We are not embarrassing Xiang Zhenjun. We only need him to settle the affairs of Dayu Kingdom and give an explanation to all the forces."
“If Jing insists on taking him away, what should you do?”
Jing Wufeng seemed to be smiling but not smiling as he looked at the [Gun Dragon Robe] on Emperor Yu's body, especially the [Green Dragon Sword] floating behind him. The sharp aura it exuded was enough to frighten the mid-stage Nascent Soul.
“Jing Wufeng, don’t think that if you control the fake spirit treasure, I will be afraid of you. With your cultivation level and magic power, how many attacks can the fake spirit treasure be able to unleash?”
The sound of Yuhuang's dragon and tiger steps is heavy.
“In a head-on fight, Jing is no match for Yuhuang, but Yuhuang can’t do anything to me and Xiang Zhenjun.”
Jing Wufeng’s leisurely tone revealed confidence.
Yuhuang and the others heard the hint in the words.
Jing Wufeng was confident that he could escape safely with Xiang Zhenjun. If he couldn't do anything to the two of them, he would be offended to death. This would be an unwise choice.
“Emperor Yu, the origin of this Jing Wufeng is unpredictable, I can’t tell the difference at all…”
Tie Suan Zhenjun coughed and hurriedly spoke.
At this time, Jing Wufeng looked at Yuhuang, smiled and said tentatively:
"If Jing Mou guessed correctly, Yu Daoyou's ethnic group should come from the 'Wuyou King' lineage of the Great Jin Immortal Dynasty. He was originally a relative of the emperor and was in charge of one side. Later, he committed a crime and was punished by the 'Fake Heavenly Lord' of the Great Jin Dynasty. If the Great Jin Immortal Dynasty had not taken control of Fenghuazhou at that time, your lineage might not..."
"Shut up!"
“Who are you? How do you know this...”
Yu Huang suddenly changed color, his face twitched and turned black.
This Supreme Being of Dayu sounded urgent and immediately interrupted Jing Wufeng's words, preventing him from continuing.
