Boom——!

The golden-green [Dharma Light] suddenly surged, turning into a huge mountain-like axe, and collided with the majestic force coming from the mountain.

The cold energy suddenly exploded and scattered in all directions.

The mirror lake, which was originally as smooth as a mirror, was instantly torn into fine waves. The stormy waves crashed against the lake shore, and it took a long time for the big hole in the center of the lake to be closed again.

In the mist that filled the sky, two tall figures fell one after another like arrows into the pavilion on the island in the middle of the lake.

Wang Yuan and Zhou Jinghuan, who were sweating profusely, lay down directly in the pavilion covered with bamboo mats after finishing today's sparring session.

Seeing Huang Wu, who had been watching, she had already cooked green plum wine for them to quench their thirst on a small red clay stove.

He quickly picked up the wine glass and drank it for himself.

"Ha, the mage's magic light is both offensive and defensive. It's ever-changing and difficult to guard against. If I don't activate [Army of War] and use it with all my strength, you will tear apart all the bones in my body.

Fortunately, I can adapt in advance now. If we meet suddenly outside, I might be in serious trouble if I'm not careful."

After drinking a glass of fine wine, Zhou Jinghuan breathed out the sweet smell of wine.

I couldn't help but sigh in my heart. After being promoted to [Military Leader], I finally overpowered Wang Yuan.

But the good times didn't last long, and he was immediately overtaken by this guy again.

Although they seemed evenly matched during the sparring, Zhou Jinghuan clearly felt that his cousin still had some strength left.

What's more, there is a military commander-level [Ghost General] Ling Xiao under his command who has not been used.

Turning around, he saw Wang Yuan, who was enjoying his sister's attentive service, with a face filled with enjoyment and paying no attention to him at all.

Zhou Jinghuan had no choice but to pick up a handkerchief to wipe his sweat and secretly muttered: How partial.

It's a pity that he is soft-spoken and short-handed in taking advantage of others. Faced with Wang Yuan, the big financier who supported all his military expenses, armaments and military rations, what can he say?

Mr. Wang, are you satisfied with my sister's service? If you are not satisfied, how about I come in person?

After taking a breath, his face suddenly straightened and he said again:

"The news from the capital has come back, and the show has begun. Those two old guys should not have time to cause trouble for us for a while.

I just don’t know if Wusheng Taoist will come to Dengzhou Mansion again to seek revenge after the entire Taoist army is annihilated?”

Wang Yuan lay on the mat, swallowed the apple his sister brought to his mouth slowly, then raised his eyelids and said angrily:

"The demon of the 'Wushengdao' was in a dream. When he was chasing the boy in yellow, he accidentally wiped out his entire army. Is it none of our business?

The only White Lotus Saint Su Guyun who is still alive can testify for us.

If you want to seek revenge, go to the dream world and look for the unkillable [Dream Moth]. I, Wang Qianshan, have never seen any Taoist inversion.

But who do you think will win if they fight on February 2 next year?"

Zhou Jinghuan sipped the wine in his glass and pondered for a while before saying slowly:

"Although Great Yan's national power has been declining year after year, the five [Soldiers of War] who are the pillars of the country are still enough to suppress the national destiny.

On the other hand, among the dozens of sects, none of them has more than two [Qingzhuan Masters] or [Weird Immortals], and some even don't have one.

I feel that if the opponent only has the ‘Wushengdao’ [One-eyed Stone Man], Dayan will definitely be able to win.

only."

Wang Yuan heard the string song and knew its elegant meaning, and then said:

"There may be problems within [Bingsheng]? Or even win the battle and lose the overall situation?"

As the largest branch in the north, the "Sanyang Sect" on the side of "Innocent Tao" has only one official name [Green Seal Script Strange Immortal·One-eyed Stone Man].

Starting from the head marshal Hong Lianzi, Qing Yezi, Yu Jiezi and all the protectors are all Master Huang Zhuan.

[Tianguan]'s nature is chaotic and selfish, and there is no possibility of caring about the overall situation.

No matter which sect can achieve great things in Chixian Shenzhou, the [Tianguan] enshrined outside the Tianmen will definitely have a great success and surpass other similar ones.

This is something no other [Heavenly Official] wants to see.

Not getting in the way at critical moments is already their greatest support, and it is almost impossible to work together to provide foreign aid.

It is unlikely that something unexpected will happen to the sect.

But in troubled times, when people's hearts are in doubt, no one knows what is hidden under the bellies of those [Soldiers of War].

Zhou Jinghuan, the second prince of Dayan, also did not shy away from hidden worries:

"That's right! Five [Soldiers of War] plus nearly a hundred thousand [Taoist soldiers] are the foundation for Dayan to rule the world, and they are also the undisputed number one force in China in Chi County.

But I am afraid that disaster will cause Xiao Qiang and the pillar of the country to collapse suddenly.

Every [Soldier] is a legend, and the five of them are the key to determining the fate of the dynasty."

By the way, I gave Wang Yuan and Huang Wu a brief introduction to all of Dayan's [Soldiers].

The first one, "Flying Flowers on the Leaf" Xu Chuanyun, the only existing female soldier saint in the Great Yan Dynasty, was once a queen of the Zhou family.

The main lineage of the Zhou family's royal family are all her descendants. Although they are approaching the end of their lifespan, they are as powerful as the Great Flame Dinghai Shenzhen.

The second one, Wu Yihou Zhou Xinglou, is a pure martial arts fanatic. He was personally trained by Xu Chuanyun after he showed his astonishing talent in the art of war. He belongs to the true direct lineage.

He has just turned fifty this year, which is even younger than Zhou Wenrui. As usual, he can still maintain his peak condition for a hundred years.

The other three are all with foreign surnames: Pei Yulou, the "dangerous building a hundred feet high"; Xie Tianke, the "best swordsman in the world"; and Jiang Baimei, the "saw thousands of miles away".

They are already around a hundred years old.

Although the Protector of the Country [Sage of War] was only granted the title of Marquis of Wu and was restricted from intervening in government affairs if his rank was too high, his treatment was as high as that of a prince.

Armed force is their greatest reliance. They sit firmly on the Diaoyutai and will never intervene in the replacement of the throne.

In history, when the dynasty was at its peak, no [Soldier of War] ever betrayed the dynasty.

Of course, not every [Soldier of War] is loyal.

In fact, it is because among the [Dragon Climbing Techniques in the Literary Circle] that rely on dragon energy, there is one called [The Art of the Society and the Land - Covenants and Oaths].

Every Protector of the Country [Soldier of War] will be promoted immediately after promotion.

On the Temple of Heaven in the Imperial City, the emperor was overseen by the Qintian Supervisor, and witnessed by Wu Guan Ling Tai Lang, the emperor, and all the ministers, he swore an alliance with the dragon spirit of the dynasty.

Once you betray the dynasty and betray the people's hearts, it will lead to an extremely tragic backlash of dragon energy.

This kind of backlash from the "Dragon Qi Law Ban" cannot be stopped by mere force. It is the will of the people of an entire dynasty - and it ends without any cure!

In dynastic rule, everything checks and balances each other.

It is precisely because of this [The Art of the Society: Faith and Covenants] that is the key to ensuring that the highest level of force will not fall by the wayside.

Under normal circumstances, in a family dynasty, the emperor and the dynasty are one.

Loyalty to the dynasty means loyalty to the emperor.

There are only two exceptions:

The first one is that the emperor is angry and the people are resentful for losing the dragon energy and the people's support; the second one is that the troubled times come and the "dragon energy law prohibition" is so weak that it can no longer kill a [Soldier of War].

This is why in the last days of a dynasty, powerful ministers came to power and took advantage of the emperor to bring order to the world.

Therefore, Zhou Jinghuan's worries are not unreasonable.

Everything is fine in prosperous times, but when troubled times come, [faith and oaths] may not be reliable.

What's more, Emperor Jianming himself was not a real dragon, and he had already planted troubles long ago.

Zhou Jinghuan drank all the wine in the glass and sighed deeply:

“Death is the only solution through all the hardships!

Wu Sheng Dao has been operating in the center for many years. Since it can bribe the great eunuch in the palace, it can definitely bribe other people, even the Protector of the Country [Sage of Soldiers].

Especially these people who once stood at the top of all living beings. After experiencing the beauty of time, who would be willing to live for only a mere 150 years?

The most foolish thing is to test people’s hearts!”

Regarding this point of Taoism, Wang Yuan, a fellow practitioner of the Art of War, has the most say.

Warlocks use Taoism to protect themselves, and their ultimate goal is immortality.

Fire cannot invade, water cannot soak, axes and axes cannot harm the body. Sudden evil thoughts are already known beforehand, and they cannot be destroyed until the reincarnation of time. My heart is peaceful and joyful, and I have great freedom and freedom.

Why are they ultimately immortal?

Because the only thing that never changes in the world is change, orthodox practitioners control all dharma and do not rely on them. Instead, they focus on cultivating a little transcendent spiritual light, moving with the world and immortality!

But the [Daobing] system is different.

Although the physical body has become non-human in the [Taoist] stage, and theoretically has to wait for the life of a monster, in fact it still retains the human soul but is still ordinary.

For the human soul, one hundred and fifty years old is the limit.

Even [Sage of War] has only permanently solidified its best state, rather than moving with the world like [Zhijie Xian].

Comparing the two, one turns himself into running water, while the other turns himself into hard stone or even steel.

Running water does not rot, door hinges do not get beetroots!

Stone and steel may seem indestructible, but they cannot withstand the passing of time and cannot last as long as running water.

In fact, this is the foundation of the art of war designed by [Nine Soldiers] when it first established the [Taoist] system through "Tu Xue".

A hundred people fight against the Dharma to cultivate their moral integrity, and a thousand people fight against the Dharma to gather the crowd. The purpose is to protect humanity, not to make individuals transcend.

It is also this design that allows [Art of War] to be immune to the influence of dragon energy, while also greatly reducing the risk of alienation.

In other words, these two paths do not lead to the same destination, but run in opposite directions from the beginning.

[Warlock] ensures that the top-level combat power is not lost, and [Dao Soldier] consolidates the basic defense line at the middle and lower levels, so that Chixian Shenzhou will not collapse across the board.

As long as the intensity of the demons and monsters raging inside Chixian Shenzhou can be controlled, those [Corpse Immortals] who truly control the fate of this world will not mind a small number of civilian casualties.

In this world where magic and magic are unified and the environment is absolutely peaceful, it is absolutely impossible to breed a [Corpse Immortal] that can be used to resist the [Heavenly Official]!

So in this way of thinking.

If the stone-like [Sage of War] wants to continue living, the only way is to steal a [Killing Fruit] and stop being a human being from the outside to the inside!

This gave the sect an opportunity to take advantage of.

Bystanders know better.

They all could see that with the current strength of the "Dragon Qi Law Ban", there was a high probability that there would be no problem.

But once Emperor Jianming Zhou Wenrui "lost his moral integrity" and fell down from the Ninth Five-Year Plan, this hidden worry may become a reality and cause major changes in the entire dynasty.

It is a pity that with their current strength, they cannot turn the wheel of history.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the pavilion was a little quiet.

suddenly.

A piece of pure white crystal fell from the sky and landed on Huang Wu's cheek.

"Huh? It's snowing?"

Wang Yuan and Zhou Jinghuan suddenly looked up at the gray sky.

Countless snowflakes are falling in the air.

Little glacier! Little glacier!

For the hundreds of millions of people living in this vast land from Mobei to Qiongzhou, the most difficult days of the fifteenth year of Emperor Jianming's reign finally came.

"Green ants' newly fermented wine, small red clay stove. It's getting snowy in the evening, can you have a drink?"

It's just a poet's romance.

If both of them were ordinary men of letters, they might still be in the mood to compose a poem at this time, but it's a pity that they are not.

If you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight!
