Chapter 782 One month
Five days after the battle of the Yunlong Palace, the new emperor of Yunlong, Long Chenyu, ascended the throne, changed his reign name to Fu Rui, and promoted his younger brother Long Chenyu to the rank of general to protect the country. All other laws and regulations followed the old rules.
On that day, the feudal structure was greatly shaken, and Yunlong's changes became known to the world.
On September 8th, Chu Hou, the general of Xueyang Kingdom's northern army, boldly marched northward and captured the city for dozens of miles. It was as if he was entering an uninhabited country.
On September 12, the Blue Ridge Kingdom and the Qidai Kingdom jointly exerted pressure, still using the assassination of Princess Blue Ridge as an excuse to ask for an explanation from the Yunlong Kingdom.
On September 15th, Buxu State sent troops to the southeast without any warning to recover the Moshang Plain area.
At this time, the Yunlong Kingdom, which was originally the strongest in its feudal territory, was already in danger.
But to everyone's surprise, on September 16, the new emperor Yunlong gave Blue Ridge and Qidai a very tough response, claiming that the assassination of Princess Blue Ridge had nothing to do with Yunlong, and hoped that the two countries would pay attention to the dignity of the great powers.
Don't mess around.
On September 20th, Blue Ridge and Qidai issued an ultimatum. The wording was polite and polite, but it contained a hidden threat.
On September 22nd, Chu Hou's army was blocked at the foot of Qinglong City, and the war reached a stalemate. After Buxu State regained the Moshang Plain, it stationed millions of troops here and continued to look toward the southeast.
On September 24, Long Chenxi's attitude did not change and he refused to acknowledge the assassination of Princess Lanling.
On September 25th, Shi Xingwei came forward to mediate, and the emperors of the four kingdoms held discussions in the Youlong Hall. In the end, they refused to compromise and broke up unhappy.
On September 28, Shi Xingwei launched mediation again, but it still ended without any resolution.
On October 3rd, Lanling and Qidai suddenly announced an alliance and declared war on Yunlong.
The next day, Xueyang Kingdom and Buxu Kingdom announced that they would join the alliance.
At this point, the trend is irreversible.
However, the chaos in the closed domain was just the beginning. Just like a stone gently thrown into the lake, the ripples spread to the entire seventeen domains at an extremely fast speed.
The conflicts and contradictions that were temporarily interrupted by the Nine Realms Competition became more intense after the competition, and even got out of hand.
…
Huayu, Canglanzhou Academy.
"What do you think Long Chenxi is thinking? If he had agreed to make concessions to Blue Ridge and Qidai, the situation might not have reached this stage, right?" Fang Zijin wondered.
Yu Ling coughed a few times and said calmly: "When did you start caring about world affairs?"
Fang Zijin glared and said: "Hey, junior brother, you can't be so contemptuous. It would be fine if the territory was far away, but the problem is that the academy is only a few hundred kilometers away from the territory. The border with China is only a few hundred kilometers away. There will be a fight over there.
Yes, it will have a great impact on our side, okay?"
"Did you hear something?"
Fang Zijin hesitated for a moment, then lowered his voice and said: "The dean told me that Huayu was among the first to be affected because it borders the feudal territory. Wasn't Wuhuazhou a few days ago being attacked by a sect that suddenly rose up?
——Has the Umbrella Sect been unified? It is said that the Yunlong Kingdom is behind it..."
"There are also four major dark forces. They keep silent on the surface, but in fact they continue to extend their hands and feet. Not to mention what role they play in the feudal structure. As far as Huayu is concerned, there are
Many sects and families have their shadow behind them, and they fight to the death for territory..."
Fang Zijin suddenly slapped his head as he spoke: "Hey, I've gone too far. Junior brother, why haven't you answered my previous question?"
Yu Ling said calmly: "Long Chenxi would be really stupid if he agreed to the conditions of the two countries of Blue Ridge."
"Why?" Fang Zijin was a little confused.
"The four countries have long wanted to form an alliance. This matter is just an excuse. If Long Chenxi takes a step back, the two countries of Blue Ridge will take a step forward. They can always push him to the point of no return. When the time comes, he can no longer hold back.
If you fall out, you will lose too many benefits, so it is better to stick to the bottom line from the beginning."
"But I don't see any chance of Yunlong Kingdom coming back." Fang Zijin touched his head.
"I can't see it either, but..." Yu Ling hesitated here.
"But what?"
"Maybe we can't wait until the day when Yunlong Kingdom is defeated."
Fang Zijin said distressedly: "Junior brother, can you stop being mysterious and secretive all the time? I'm going to be annoyed to death by you!"
"There are some things I can't say clearly, but the situation is so chaotic now, and some things that were impossible to happen will soon become impossible to say."
Before Fang Zijin could continue to ask, Yu Ling said: "Senior Brother, you should do what you want to do as soon as possible. I heard that Jinyu is also in chaos now. Why don't you go and see Second Senior Sister?"
Fang Zijin said awkwardly: "I, I'm afraid her family won't agree..."
"Actually, it's you who are timid. Let's not mention your mother's identity. You are also the eleventh in the Nine Regions Competition. How can the Mu family look down on you?"
"Oh, I, that..." Fang Zijin scratched his hair in distress.
"If you don't take action now, something else might happen in the future," Yu Ling said.
"It's impossible, Second Junior Sister..." Fang Zijin suddenly paused as he spoke. His expression changed a few times, and finally he slapped his thigh and said viciously: "Damn it, just go, I'm afraid they'll eat it.
You can’t kill me!”
"Junior brother, I'll leave the academy to you. I'll go to the Mu family to propose marriage tomorrow!" Fang Zijin was encouraged by Yu Ling and finally gathered enough courage.
"You're going through the process too fast...how can you just propose marriage when you say you're proposing marriage?" Yu Ling was speechless.
"Things are getting complicated...Forget it, I'll go back and ask my mother." Fang Zijin had a headache.
Although the two of them were chatting, their attention was focused more on the room across the door.
The Nine Domain Competition allowed everyone to harvest countless rare treasures. Even Fang Zijin, who was originally so poor, became rich overnight, so after returning to the academy, Yu Ling donated many unused things for free.
Giving it to Lingbao Hall can be regarded as giving back to the academy for its nurturing grace.
However, for several illusion masters in the academy, there is a feeling of being well-deserved. After all, it seems that Yuling's journey to this point is basically his own efforts and has little to do with them. But Yuling insists.
When he wanted to give it away, Fang Zijin, Wen Nianxuan and others followed suit, and the dean of the academy couldn't refuse at all.
Many of the heavenly materials and earthly treasures were treasures they had never seen before, so during this period, the whole academy set off a cultivation craze. After the academy president broke through to the middle stage of phantom god, Yi Ying also resumed phantom god cultivation.
Because of this, together with three elders who were at the peak of transformation, they broke through to the Illusory God Realm in one fell swoop.
The person currently in retreat in the house is Rong Chen. Because of the special nature of the ancient desolate art of refining qi, he has been saving up for a while and plans to break through the two major systems in one go.
Yu Ling and Fang Zijin were standing outside the door to protect him. If an abnormal situation occurred, they would still be able to stop it in time with their strength.
A full six hours passed before the turbulent Qi in the room gradually calmed down. Thinking about it, Rong Chen's breakthrough should be considered a matter of course.
After all, he has accumulated too many years.
"Squeak——"
When Rong Chen walked out of the door, he looked particularly refreshed and seemed to be ten years younger.
"Congratulations, teacher." Yu Ling said with a slight smile.
Rong Chen stared at him, as if there were thousands of words stuck in his heart, but he was not good at expressing them. All the proud, gratified, and moved emotions could only surge up and down in his heart, lingering for a long time.
He originally wanted to say that having a student like you is really the proudest thing in my life, Rong Chen.
But suddenly, he felt that such words were too pretentious and sour, so he simply patted Yu Ling on the shoulder and said with rare boldness: "Come on, let's go to Tianxiang Tower for a drink!"
Just as Yu Ling nodded, the hidden wounds in his body started to show up again, causing him to cover his lips and cough for a while.
