Dahuang Mansion, border.
In the military tent where Ping Xihou was, Xu Wei, a tall man wearing heavy armor, walked in.
"Master Hou, we failed." Xu Wei knelt down on one knee and said in a deep voice.
Hearing this, Ping Xihou raised his eyes slightly and said, "How many people have been sent to the Xueyi Tower?"
"Reporting to the Marquis, the real person who returned to the true state, the Blood Clothes Tower sent three people. Among them, Wu Jian, who was number one on the black list, was killed by Gu Chen on the spot. The two ghost ghosts from the Blood Clothes Tower tried to attack, but they were defeated by Gu Chen and fled in panic."
Xu Wei raised his head, looked at the calm-looking Marquis Ping Xi, and said, "Master Marquis, what should we do next?"
In fact, Xu Wei was a little lucky in his heart. The three real people who returned to the True Realm could not take down Gu Chen. Now that Gu Chen has really grown up, even if he takes action, he will definitely not be his opponent.
Ping Xihou's tone was calm and without any disturbance, he said: "It doesn't matter, if you fail, you will fail."
Xu Wei asked: "Master Hou, what should we do next? Should we ignore that boy Gu Chen?"
Ping Xihou was silent for a moment and said: "Since he has such strength, let him come to Yanzhou alive. The previous Blood Clothes Building can only be regarded as a small test."
"Nowadays, the world is in chaos, and Emperor Xia is missing. Not only is Dayuan and the barbarians taking action, but even the Jianghu forces in Kyushu are ready to move, and they want to overthrow the rule of Great Xia, and because of the conflict between the Shengming Sect and the Mahakala Sect,
Appeared, Yanzhou Jingtiansi's strength has been greatly weakened, and before the follow-up support from Tiandu Jingtiansi arrives, Yanzhou's Jingtiansi branch has nothing to fear."
Hearing this, Xu Wei also deeply agreed. After all, even Jingtiansi's guardian was seriously injured and chose to retreat. Yanzhou Jingtiansi's strength was undoubtedly reduced to the lowest.
At this time, Ping Xihou continued to say: "In the world of Yanzhou, there are not only two major families, but also top forces such as the Great Guangming Sect and the Baihu Sect and the Duanlang Sect. Among them, the Qiu family of the two major families, and the
The Great Light Sect and the White Tiger Clan have been dissatisfied with the imperial court for a long time, and now that Jingtiansi is weak and the world is in chaos, they may not let this opportunity pass."
When Xu Wei heard this, his eyes immediately lit up and he said: "You mean to let these Jianghu forces deal with Jingtiansi?"
Ping Xihou was wearing a battle armor, holding a file, and said slowly: "The Shengming Sect and the Mahakala Sect will not give up. The Demon Sect must be planning something secretly. There will not be peace in Yanzhou."
Xu Wei nodded and said excitedly: "I understand what you mean. Let these Jianghu forces deal with Jingtiansi first. We will look for good opportunities from them and find the opportunity to kill Gu Chen!"
Ping Xihou did not say anything more. With his identity and status, although a person like Gu Chen could not be said to be insignificant in his eyes, his weight was limited.
If it fails once, Ping Xihou will not plan anything specifically for Gu Chen again.
Now, in Ping Xihou's eyes, he is not looking at one person or one thing, he is looking at the entire world and the entire Kyushu.
Only major events that can affect the trend of the world, such as the battle between the Shengming Sect and the Mahakala Sect and the Yanzhou Jingtiansi garrison some time ago, will attract the attention of Ping Xihou.
No matter how famous Gu Chen is and how talented he is, what will happen?
In the eyes of Ping Xihou, it is obvious that Gu Chen cannot influence the general trend of the world by himself, so it is naturally not worthy of his attention.
If Gu Chen was not involved in the death of his legitimate son Cao Zhen, Ping Xihou would not even mention it. Even now, Gu Chen is not taken seriously by Ping Xihou.
Gu Chen, just let the people below deal with it. Ping Xihou doesn't want to spend too much energy on Gu Chen.
What he should be thinking about now is how to obtain greater benefits for himself in today's world situation.
At this time, I only heard Ping Xihou say: "If there is nothing important next, don't bother me. I will retreat for a while."
Xu Wei was shocked when he heard this and said: "Master Hou, are you about to break through?"
He looked at Ping Xihou with a happy face. Now Ping Xihou has reached the perfection of the Rebirth Realm and is only one step away from being promoted to the Hundred Aperture Realm.
The warrior who reaches the rebirth state, which is above the return to true state, is what is called a martial arts master in the martial arts world. The hundred orifices state is the last step for a master. As long as the acupuncture points all over the body are opened in the hundred orifices state.
, you can attract the vitality of heaven and earth into your body, return from acquired to innate, achieve the innate realm that countless warriors in Kyushu dream of, and achieve the position of a great martial arts master.
In this way, the strength of the entire border will be greatly increased.
No wonder Xu Wei was so excited.
But at this time, Ping Xihou shook his head and said: "How can there be such an easy breakthrough in the Hundred Aperture Realm? This retreat is just an attempt. The probability of breaking through the realm is not high, so don't be too happy, and this
This matter is not allowed to be spread to outsiders."
Xu Wei was Ping Xihou's confidant and a general in the army. He was brave and good at fighting and played an important role on the border. It was for this reason that Ping Xihou told him the news and did not hesitate to waste his time to explain it briefly to him.
Xu Wei has now reached the realm of returning to his true nature, and he also has some understanding of the realm of martial arts masters. When he heard this, a fierce light flashed in his eyes and said: "Master Hou, how about I go and help you absorb some blood essence?"
Let’s prepare for your breakthrough.”
Every breakthrough to the Grandmaster realm is extremely difficult. Even with Ping Xihou's talent in martial arts, he is in his forties and has been trapped in the realm of rebirth for six years.
The essence and blood Xu Wei mentioned was not the essence and blood of beasts, but the essence and blood of warriors. Essence and blood can be said to be the source of life for warriors. If there is a sufficient supply of essence and blood, it can indeed help warriors break through the realm.
.
But this method is evil. Once people know about it, people all over the world will attack it.
When Ping Xihou heard this, he was silent for a moment and then said: "There is no need for this."
After all, he is the Marquis of Daxia. If the news spreads that a large amount of blood essence was taken for him to break through the realm, Daxia will be the first to let him go.
It's not that Ping Xihou thinks it's bad to kill innocent people indiscriminately, but in Ping Xihou's heart, he also has his own pride, and he doesn't want to do this unless he has to.
When Xu Wei heard this, he hesitated slightly, but still nodded in agreement and did not dare to make his own claims.
Ping Xihou said: "During my retreat, you can tell Wuying about all matters. If it comes to a critical moment, he will go to the secret room to wake me up."
After Ping Xihou finished speaking, in the darkness around him, the void rippled slightly, and a figure emerged. This man was of medium build and had an iron face on his face.
He is none other than Ping Xihou's personal bodyguard, Wu Ying.
Rumor has it that Ping Xihou has formed an intelligence organization of his own to collect information from all over the world for him. Wuying is the leader of this intelligence organization and ranks as the number one secret agent in the world. Ping Xi
He was trained by Hou Xihou, and he can be said to be loyal to Ping Xihou.
Ping Xihou also had great trust in Wuying, and this trust was even greater than that of Xu Wei.
No one knows how many spies there are under Ping Xihou, and each spy wears a mask. Only Ping Xihou knows the true identity of each spy.
Xu Wei only knew that the spies under Ping Xihou were divided into four levels: Heaven, Earth, Xuanhuang, and Huang. They were the same as the commanders of Jingtiansi.
From this alone, we can see the ambition of Ping Xihou.
Of course, to put it nicely, it is an intelligence organization, but to put it worse, it is a killer organization. They are all engaged in the business of killing people and stealing goods, and every one of them is a ruthless character who eats people without spitting out their bones.
All kinds of resources that Ping Xihou needed for his daily cultivation were also obtained by Wuying and others for him. No one knows by what means and methods.
Even Xu Wei, as a general in the Yanzhou Border Army, felt chilled when faced with Wuying, the killer leader under Ping Xihou.
"Yes." Xu Wei whispered, not daring to raise his head and look at Wuying.
"If there's nothing else to do, please step back. I'm going to prepare for retreat."
"As commanded."
Immediately, Xu Wei stood up, walked slowly backwards, and left the military tent.
…
After a month, Gu Chen and his party finally arrived at Yanzhou Jingtiansi.
Yanzhou Jingtiansi is located in Yulong City, the state capital of Yanzhou.
Yulong City is located in the center of Yanzhou. It is the most prosperous city in Yanzhou. Starting from Yulong City, whether it is to Dahuang Mansion, Changqing Mansion, or the last Binxi Mansion, the distance is the same.
It won't take long to arrive.
Gu Chen led Song Yu and Wang Yan to the door of Yanzhou Jingtiansi.
This is a government office that occupies an extremely large area, with raised eaves and corners, and is majestic. There are also two jade unicorns placed at the door, which is very majestic.
After Gu Chen showed his yellow-ranked commander's token, he was directly let go.
Many people within the Yanzhou Jingtian Division have already heard the news and know that reinforcements from the Tiandu Jingtian Division have arrived, and that a group of commanders and inspectors are waiting here.
Before coming, Gu Chen had already learned about the situation of Yanzhou Jingtiansi. In the entire Jiuzhou, no matter which Jingtiansi branch had the most manpower, the Tiandu Jingtiansi headquarters had the most people.
Yanzhou Jingtian Division has one garrison envoy, three heaven-level commanders, nine earth-level commanders, eighteen xuan-level commanders, and a total of thirty-six yellow-level commanders like Gu Chen.
Some of these people are natives of Yanzhou, and some are sent by Jingtiansi from other state capitals and their hometowns are not here.
After the previous battle between the Shengming Sect and the Mahakala Sect, Yanzhou Jingtiansi could be said to have suffered heavy losses. Among them, the guard was seriously injured and went into retreat. The three heaven-level commanders also suffered serious injuries. The earth-level commanders also suffered serious injuries.
Three people were lost, six were killed or wounded by the Xuan-level commander, and eleven were killed or wounded by the Huang-level commander.
If not, Yanzhou Jingtiansi would not ask for help from the imperial court.
Now, in addition to those recovering from injuries, the Xuan-level commanders and the Huang-level commanders are all waiting inside Jingtiansi to greet Gu Chen and his party.
"This must be Master Gu Chengu, who defeated Ananda, the disciple of the Great Yuan Buddha. Now his fame has spread throughout Kyushu, and he is known as the number one martial arts genius in Kyushu for hundreds of years, right?"
At this time, one of the Xuan-level commanders stepped forward, smiled at Gu Chen and cupped his hand.
Gu Chen also cupped his hands and said: "I, Gu Chen, have met all of you, but they are just some false names. Gu has never thought that in the huge Jiuzhou, I am the most talented person in martial arts in hundreds of years."
Jiang Huan glanced at the people behind Gu Chen and asked with a hint of confusion: "Did Heaven just send Master Gu and you guys here?"
Gu Chen said: "Now that the world is in chaos, a large number of demons and ghosts have suddenly appeared in China and caused trouble to the world. Tiandu really can't spare any manpower in a short period of time, so they first sent Gu and a group of people here.
Later, Commander Qin Zeng said that others will be sent to Yanzhou to provide support."
Jiang Huan nodded when he heard this, and then he introduced to Gu Chen the four Xuan-level commanders and the eighteen Huang-level commanders present besides him.
"The Guardian Envoy, Lord Wang and others are currently in retreat. They have told us earlier that if Tiandu sends people to support us, we will be responsible for introducing the situation." Jiang Huan said.
The "Master Wang" he refers to is named Wang Jiuzhi, and he is one of the three heaven-level commanders in Yanzhou.
"Mr. Gu is here for the first time. He has spent all his time on the road. He hasn't seen the scenery and food of Yanzhou yet. In this way, Mr. Gu can rest for a while. In the evening, we will take Mr. Gu to appreciate the beautiful scenery of Yulong City.
." Jiang Huan said with a smile.
