Xiao Zhi was startled and instinctively stepped back several feet. His body tensed up and a milky white light of true energy lit up on his body.
After seeing the face of the person in front of him clearly, Xiao Zhi's tense body relaxed a little, and he bowed respectfully and said: "Xiao Zhi, the patrol envoy of Beilan Road, has met Dao Cheng."
In the world of living beings, his recorded name is Xiao Zhi, not Xiao Zhi.
In the official office of Dachang Kingdom, the name recorded in the book was also Xiaozhi.
However, Xiao and Xiao sound the same, but they are written differently.
Beilan Daocheng nodded, his expression was quite kind, he waved his sleeves and sat down.
When he sat down, a white jade stool appeared out of thin air behind him.
In front of him, there also appeared a white jade table and a white jade stool.
There was a white jade wine jug and two white jade wine glasses on the white jade table. After Beilan Daocheng sat down, he picked up the wine jug, started to pour wine for himself, and filled another cup with wine.
Suddenly, an intoxicating aroma of wine overflowed.
Xiao Zhi still stood there with a respectful expression on his face, feeling a little uneasy in his heart.
Beilan Daocheng, whose real name is Zhou Tingqing and nicknamed Longyu Zhenren, among the officials of Beilan Dao, his status is second only to Beilan Dao master Ji Yuanrong, and he is the second-in-command in the officialdom of Beilan Dao.
In a world like the 'World of All Living Beings', where strength is respected, one cannot be the Prime Minister without the corresponding strength.
Although this Beilan Daocheng is not a major cultivator in the Nascent Soul Realm, his strength is not weak either.
At the peak of the Golden Core Realm, he is only one step away from the Nascent Soul Realm. With such strength, he can be regarded as a big shot no matter where he is placed.
What made Xiao Zhi feel puzzled and vigilant was why did Beilan Daocheng appear in front of him?
Before he could think more, Beilan Daocheng waved to him: "This wine is made from spiritual fruits and has a mellow taste. Would you like to have a try?"
"When Daocheng invited me, my subordinates were not very frightened." In front of the powerful Daocheng Beilan, Xiao Zhi behaved extremely humbly.
With his current strength, and with the blessing of various powers such as Xiao Qinglong, Demon Demon Li Kuo, and Blood-Burning Secret Technique, he may be able to compete with the monks who have just entered the Golden Core Realm without being killed instantly, but
In front of such a cultivator at the peak of the Golden Core Realm, even if his strength were doubled, he would probably be killed instantly.
There is a huge gap between the beginning and the peak.
For example, in the foundation building stage, Xiao Zhi's strength has now reached the peak of foundation building. Is it difficult for him to kill a monk in the early stage of foundation building?
In front of such a person who can kill him with just a raise of his hand, the necessary respect is still required.
"It's okay, come and have a drink with me." Dao Cheng said with a faint smile.
"Then it's better for me to be respectful than to obey my orders." Xiao Zhi then walked over cautiously, and at Dao Cheng's signal, he sat on the white jade stool.
Xiao Zhi picked up the white jade wine glass in front of him and did not drink it immediately, but stared at the golden wine in the glass.
Soon, a line of text appeared: "Hundred Fruit Wine is brewed from hundreds of rare fruits and several spiritual fruits over decades. It can strengthen muscles and bones and prolong life."
After seeing this line of text, Xiao Zhi was completely relieved, picked up the wine glass, and took a sip of the wine in the glass.
After just one sip, Xiao Zhi felt ecstatic and a little intoxicated.
Dao Cheng also took a sip of the wine in the glass, but did not discuss the topic of wine with Xiao Zhi. Instead, he said: "My little friend has extraordinary qualifications and talents. Not only has he practiced the 'Cang Long Concept' to perfection, but he also has a minions.
With the demon accompanying me, my future achievements will probably be limitless."
Xiao Zhi hurriedly put down his wine glass, showed a frightened expression, and said, "Dao Chengwu praised it."
Dao Cheng smiled faintly and said: "The demon can hide his body, and the blue dragon can soar into the clouds and ride on the mist. When I transform into a dragon, I can surround myself with clouds and mist, so that I can connect with the world. When I fly in the air, I will not
There was such a big commotion.”
After a pause, he continued: "After transforming into a dragon, if you swim in the clouds and haze, and cooperate with the demon's method of hiding your body, I may not even be able to find you, little friend."
When Xiao Zhi heard this, he showed a thoughtful expression. He stood up again, bowed to Daocheng and said, "Thank you, Daocheng, for your advice."
Daocheng waved his hand and said: "Xiao Zhi, are you willing to go to Chigu County?"
Chigu County?
Xiao Zhi was stunned for only a moment before he reacted.
This Chigu County was one of the two counties where Beilan Road fell during this war.
The two counties that fell were Changfeng County and Chigu County.
Lord Changfeng died in battle when the city was broken. Lord Chigu surrendered to Xuanming Kingdom before the city was broken. He is still serving as his Lord Commander, pacifying the counties and villages in the county and the aristocratic families in the territory for Xuanming Kingdom.
sect.
After reacting, Xiao Zhi hesitated.
But when he thought that he had participated in the operations in occupied areas organized by the governments of various countries in the real world, if he went to Chigu County, it did not seem to conflict with this. He gritted his teeth and said with a serious face: "For Dachang Kingdom
To ensure the prosperity of the country, I am willing to go to Chigu County, go deep behind enemy lines, and fight bravely to kill the enemy!"
Dao Cheng stared at Xiao Zhi, nodded with satisfaction, and said: "Okay! You are worthy of being a hero of our Dachang Kingdom! Compared with those national thieves who surrendered to the enemy before the battle, I don't know how much stronger!"
Xiao Zhi said nothing, with a humble expression on his face.
Daocheng took another sip of the wine in the glass, stared at Xiao Zhi and said: "This time, most of the patrol envoys in Beilan Road will be sent to Changfeng County and Chigu County to go deep behind enemy lines and fight with the enemy. You will not
Exception, there is just one thing that other wanderers may not be able to do, but only you can do it."
"Dare to ask Cheng, what's the matter?" Xiao Zhi's heart couldn't help but get excited, and he had a bad premonition.
In Beilan Road, those who can become Beilan Road Patrol Envoys almost all have the strength of late-stage foundation building and above. With this strength, they can definitely be regarded as elites in the foundation-building level.
There were so many traveling envoys, but this Daocheng Lord only took a fancy to himself.
The situation is not good...
Dao Cheng put down his wine glass, stared at Xiao Zhi and said, "I want you to assassinate Yan Chi."
Yan Chi Xiao Zhi didn't react at first, but when he did, he suddenly stood up.
Assassinate Yan Chi, are you kidding?!
The Yan Chi mentioned by Daocheng is none other than the prince of Chigu County who surrendered to the enemy.
Yan Chi, the former prince of Chigu County, is a late-stage martial arts cultivator in the Jindan realm who takes the strength route.
Later stage!
Such a powerful being, with Xiao Zhi's current strength, trying to assassinate him is simply a fantasy!
This is the rhythm of letting yourself die!
"Don't panic, sit down and talk." The expression on Dao Cheng's face seemed very calm. He picked up the wine glass again, put it to his lips and took a sip.
