Xia Yi slept until noon the next day before waking up.

He sat up, yawned, and called out: "Xiaoxian, come in!"

Zhou Xiaoxian didn't know how long she had been waiting at his door. Hearing the sound, he immediately pushed the door open and came in, hesitatingly saying:

"Old, old, ancestor..."

"If you're not used to it, just call me teacher."

"No." Zhou Xiaoxian shook his head and said seriously: "Ancestor, are you awake? Thank you for avenging your mother."

"Don't be polite, don't be formal. Just ignore me sleeping and just treat me as an ordinary elder in the family. Isn't that a little closer than a teacher?" Xia Yi smiled and said, "Zhou Feng has told you everything.

Right? Are you complaining that he didn't tell you earlier and kept you unaware?"

Zhou Xiaoxian shook his head gently.

"There was one thing at first, but now I have figured it out. Both my ancestor and my father are doing it for my own good. Also, this should be... what mother wants."

When she said the last sentence, her tone became softer and a little sad. After a night, the outline of her mother, who she had no memory of at all, became much clearer in her mind.

She quickly came out of her sadness and said again: "Ancestor, there are many guests coming to our house to see you. Wu Xianzhou Shou came and left in a hurry after hearing the news of King Zheng's death, saying that he would come back later when you can rest.

Thanks you.

There is also an old general Zhang Tong who has been waiting for you outside. Look..."

"I know, go see him now."

If it were another king, after being killed by Xia Yi, a veteran of several dynasties such as Zhang Tong would definitely be eager to fight Xia Yi. But when the tyrant King Zheng was killed, his feelings were very complicated.

Instead of disturbing Xia Yi's sleep, he obviously chose to retain his previous respect.

After greetings, he asked the question he was most concerned about: "Senior, was it because of you that the Qi army retreated last night? And the person who surrendered on behalf of our Zheng army yesterday, is he the king?"

"Yes, that is the Summoning Saint Phantom, the seventh-level holy soul of King Zheng." Xia Yi affirmed: "The retreat of the Qi army was the result of an agreement between me and Shangguan Yu, not to take action against each other, in exchange for Zheng Guo's retreat.

Seven days of internal rest.”

"Calling the Saint?!" Zhang Tong was at the peak of Six-Star Kaiyang. Of course he knew the realm of a king, but he didn't dare to guess in that direction.

The true king? That tyrant?!

No, no, no, more importantly, Senior Yi Xia killed the tyrant who broke through the true king?

As for the name issue, Xia Yi did not explain it. It would be exhausting to explain it to one person once, but once word spreads, everyone will naturally know about it.

"Seven days..." It took Zhang Tong a while to react, and he chewed heavily.

The tyrant was killed, and no successor had been decided before. Seven days was simply not enough. And did Zheng Guo make money from this kind of agreement? No!

The senior Yi Xia who can kill the true king is far from comparable to the female prime minister Shangguan Yu of Qi State. He only earns seven days, which is a drop in the bucket for Zheng State!

He cannot change the king's agreement, and there should be far-reaching considerations. After pondering for a long time, he replied: "Thank you, senior, for buying the critical buffer time for our country, Zheng. I wonder, senior...if there is anyone who wants to support the candidate to succeed King Zheng."

?”

"Second Prince Zhao Yu." Xia Yi replied.

"Your Highness?" Zhang Tong's face softened slightly. Among the princes, Zhao Yu had the best reputation. Moreover, the eldest prince passed away unfortunately a few years ago. The second prince was also the eldest prince, and he was the heir apparent.

It's reasonable to support him, and that's fine.

"Then I won't disturb my seniors from resting. I'll go to the army to inform the soldiers of the news."

"Old General, walk slowly."

After sending Zhang Tong away, Xia Yi called the servants at home. They were badly frightened last night and suffered a lot of bruises. Xia Yi offered to reimburse the medical expenses in full and continued to give instructions:

"Recently, many large courtyards have become vacant in Lieyang City. We are looking for a suitable one in the East District, one that is three or four times the size of the current courtyard. We will not renovate here, we will just move!"

All the servants looked at each other, excited.

Wu Jing was the most excited. With a bigger yard, I, the gardener, would have room to grow flowers, right?

Onions? Whoever likes to plant them will plant them!

After sending away the servants, Xia Yi freed up his hands to take a shower and change clothes, and used Xiaoxian's long sword to repair the burned hair on his beard and eyebrows.

The image is much more normal.

Later, when I heard that Xia Yi had gotten up, he greeted Chen Guang, who was busy in the kitchen, and he and his wife brought out plates of delicious food and had lunch together.

Zhou Feng was shocked by great joy and sorrow. Xia Lan's revenge was finally avenged. Just like Chen Guang's reaction after Feng Shuhu's death, he seemed a little empty. He muttered and refused Zhou Xiaoxian's persuasion and insisted on returning to Zhoujia Village. Xia Yi just said

convinced him.

"After I move into the new courtyard, I will arrange a special mourning hall. My Xia family's mourning hall and Xia Lan's memorial tablet will also be placed in it."

After finishing the meal and everything was in order, Xia Yi finally had time to check on the escaped stupid ferret.

Only then did I realize that my perception was actually very weak.

It's not that something happened to the stupid ferret, it's that it ran too far!

The Diao Yao is known for its lightning speed. From yesterday evening until now, it has not stopped much for about twenty hours. Obviously, it knew that being captured by Xia Yi was not as good as it, so it risked its life.

It must be thousands of miles away.

Isn’t it possible that we are almost out of Zheng State?

"Why don't you cause trouble to me, why don't I peel off your skin this time?" Xia Yi sighed secretly.

There was no way to delay any longer, he didn't want to waste Holy Soul experience on upgrading automatic pathfinding.

He could only temporarily put aside other matters that needed to be dealt with by him, explain it to his family, and then rush to pursue it.

…

The mink baby's escape has a clear goal.

During its stay at Xia Yi's house, in addition to sleeping in, it also secretly confirmed the knowledge it had gained in the monster hunting ground: it was going to Dajin!

It's the most sparsely populated place with endless vast grasslands! Instead of going to the city, find some small pastoral villages where you can steal a sheep and a cow and eat meat. Wouldn't it be nice?

It can already break through the six-star level. It didn't break through before just because it was afraid that the skin would grow faster after breaking through.

I am a big six-star mink demon. I hide in a remote grassland. I don’t kill or hurt anyone. I can steal a few cattle and sheep to eat. Is there no problem?

Yesterday's battle between kings in Lieyang City really made Baby Mink tremble, and he completely gave up on revenge for his brothers and sisters in the monster hunting field.

This queen really can’t do it!

All the way north along the barren mountains and ridges, the mink yearned for freedom and did not feel tired. The architectural styles of the small villages it passed gradually changed. It was secretly surprised and guessed that it might have left the Zheng Kingdom and arrived in the Liao Kingdom.

It's so far away, even if the old devil is the king, he can't find me, right? Don't relax, hold on for one more day, and wait until you see the grassland!

Running and running, just as the sky was getting darker, it was in the barren mountains and suddenly felt a terrifying pressure coming from the distant town.

Similar to how I felt last night!

"Wing Zhan? There are king battles here too!" Baby Mink huddled up and gasped, and quickly took a detour into the distance. The human world is too crazy. Are there kings fighting everywhere?

After running out of this barren mountain, it suddenly felt a hand grabbing the back of its neck and lifting it up... This feeling was extremely familiar.

The mink stood stiff and almost peed.

No, no, it's a hallucination! How could the old devil still find me? She must be too tired and hallucinating!

"Huh...you can really run, stupid Marten."

A familiar voice sounded.

The baby mink covered its numb scalp with its paws.

"I... sensed that there was a king fighting here, so... I ran over to take a look."

"Heh, guess whether I believe it or not." Xia Yi snorted and looked sideways into the distance.

…

At the same time, Liaocheng was controlled.

Bai Feng, who had just been promoted to king, flew out of Qi State and entered Zheng State after flying for a day and night, but was intercepted by Shangguan Yu in the air.

"Congratulations on your promotion to king."

Shangguan Yu congratulated her sincerely, but Bai Feng couldn't turn his face away from her. He nodded in agreement before asking: "Shangguanyu, why are you in this city? And... my Daqi soldiers are also there? According to the information I know, you should

We should attack the capital of Zhizhou, which is Lieyang City where Yi Xia is located!"

"Some changes happened last night. Yi Xia killed King Zheng in Lieyang City. After that, I made an agreement with him to give Zheng a seven-day buffer in exchange for his promise not to intervene in the war."

Bai Feng was startled, and his expression became bright.

"Are you kidding?! Why, Prince Zheng has really been promoted to king? How can you be so afraid of the king with your own hands?! A pampered tyrant, how much real strength is there..."

"Prince Zheng is a true king. Countless soldiers and I have seen the phantom of the Summoning Saint with our own eyes."

Shangguan Yu interrupted: "But he still lost to Yi Xia. No, it was Xia Yi."

"...True King? Don't be kidding!"

Shangguan Yu looked serious: "I won't joke with you on this kind of thing."
