For half a day, Zhang Yu was flying in the direction of Duzhou, and more than ten monks were following behind in their flying lights.
While flying in the air, he was also thinking about the conversation he had just had with Counselor Shen.
According to Counselor Shen, Cao Du also noticed that there were many creators in the Qingyang Mansion, but Cao Du was not sure whether anyone in the upper echelons had been replaced by creators, so he did not dare to trust those colleagues. .
Therefore, this time, he planned to take advantage of the war pending outside the territory to sort out the creators in the army, and then take advantage of the situation to return to the continent and conduct a thorough investigation.
It's just that Cao Du is fighting alone and doesn't have much confidence, so he hopes to get help from Xuanfu, and he also hopes that Zhang Yu can report the matter to Xuanting, so that this action will be justified.
After Zhang Yu thought about it, he felt that we could cooperate in some aspects, but he would not report it to Xuan Ting.
It can be seen from Zhu Xuanshou's few words that this matter may involve some of the upper echelons of the Xuan Palace. Reporting it now may not be useful, and it may even alert others, so the matter can only be resolved by themselves as much as possible.
As long as a certain number of creators are found in the army, he can intervene as Xuanzheng, and then he can inspect the upper levels of the two mansions in the name of Xuanfu.
After fleeing for half a day, he returned to Duzhou.
At this moment, the military fleet had already surrounded Duzhou and carried out indiscriminate bombing for several days. Without the interference of the Shuangzhou fleet, the fleet released the power of the Xuanbing without any scruples. .
In just four days, all the military fortresses and fortifications around Duzhou have been razed, and part of the ground protection fortifications above Duzhou has been blasted away. The destruction of this foreign state can be foreseen in these few days. It’s between days.
At this time, there were still many upper-level officials in Duzhou trying to contact the Qingyang Military Mansion. They all wanted to surrender in advance and were willing to provide various internal situations and useful clues in the state.
Cao Du also agreed to all these people. He was not interested in taking the lives of Shuangzhou people. His goal this time was just to eliminate this threat on the flank of Qingyang Shangzhou. With these people, it would be more convenient for him. Finding Duzhou Manufacturing Institute is the most important thing.
After Zhang Yu learned this, he knew that he no longer needed to participate in the next battle before breaking through the ground barrier. He just took advantage of this gap to go back and adjust to deal with the possible battle that would come after the war. So he returned directly to his temporary residence in the rear.
After sitting down in his residence, he began to breathe and regulate his breath. After straightening out his breath, he found that his mental strength and supernatural powers had improved a little.
This should be caused by the recent fighting and war experience.
Especially after the battles with Patriarch Yuantong, Mo Guangchen, Wang Chongjin and others, his understanding of Taoism and supernatural powers became deeper.
and……
He took out the Cicada Sword and touched it gently with his fingers. Suddenly, a stream of light like flowing water flowed from it.
This ray of light did not move because of Qi, but seemed to contain a vigorous and vigorous spirit, which seemed to be urgently waiting for him to draw it out.
Since the last time he faintly felt that throbbing, he had deliberately used his sword in all the battles he encountered. Until now, he felt that he still lacked an opportunity.
He Jun sent him a fight, but he came at the right time. With this fight, he might be able to achieve what he wanted.
At this moment, a disciple's voice outside the hut said: "Xuanzheng, Cao Xuanxiu is here to visit."
Zhang Yu put away his sword and said, "Please come in, fellow Taoist Cao."
The tent in the shed was lifted, and Cao Fangding walked in. He cupped his hands and said, "I have met Xuan Zheng."
Zhang Yu nodded and said: "Fellow Taoist Cao, please take a seat."
Cao Fangding sat down opposite him and said: "A few days ago, Xuan Zheng kept an eye on those real cultivators. Nothing happened these days. It was just that after Xuan Zheng left to chase the Shuangzhou fleet, General Cao asked Those true cultivators were on duty in various directions. At that time, I felt an abnormal aura, but the aura came and went quickly. When I went to check, I couldn't find any trace."
Zhang Yu asked: "Where does this energy come from?"
Cao Fangding said: "In the direct north, I checked and found that it is the boundary where Guan Xuan is responsible for guarding."
Zhang Yu thought for a while and said: "The person coming here should be cautious."
When Cao Fangding heard what he said, he couldn't help but react and said: "Zhang Xuanzheng said that the person who came knew that I was observing from outside, so he deliberately made such a move to mislead me?"
Zhang Yudao: "The person who came here must have leaked his qi secrets on purpose, but he may not have discovered fellow Taoist. There is a large army of hedgehogs here, and there is only one fellow daoist. How could it be such a coincidence that fellow daoist noticed it? This person must have just used this to lure away the secret. Someone who may exist, so if there is a problem, it is probably not Guan Xuan."
Among those true cultivators, Guan Xuan is the most hostile to xuan cultivators and has the best relationship with He Jun. Now that this matter has been added, it seems very possible that he is behind this matter, but it is precisely everything It's all too reasonable and seems too deliberate.
He did not forget the piece of paper Qi Li gave him. The person behind it seemed to be a man with deep thoughts. Such a person would not reveal his whereabouts so easily.
He changed his mind. This time, there were five people who had cultivated to the level of Yuanshen Zhaoying. Apart from He Jun and Guan Xuan, they were Lin Boran, Chu Gong, and Yu Fu.
He raised his head and asked: "Guan Xuan is in the north, so who is guarding the south?"
Cao Fang said: "It's Chu Gong."
Zhang Yu nodded and said: "Then I'll trouble you, fellow Taoist Cao, to keep an eye on this person."
This Chu Gong may not necessarily be connected to the person behind him, but the farthest thing from Zhengbei is undoubtedly Zhengnan. If the other party deliberately conceals it, then he may subconsciously stay away from the person who is connected to him.
Since we don’t know which one it is now, we might as well look for it from this person first.
Cao Fangding responded solemnly. He stood up, cupped his hands and said, "If Xuan Zheng has no other concern, then Cao will resign."
Zhang Yu stood there and bowed his hands, saying, "Fellow Taoist Cao, you need to be careful."
Cao Fangding nodded and exited after a few steps.
At the same time, high in the sky outside Mizhou, He Jun and Guan Xuan were standing looking at the state in the distance that was constantly shaking from the explosions of Xuan soldiers.
Guan Xuan said: "This battle is coming to an end. Senior brother, can you fulfill your contract with Zhang Xuanzheng?"
He Jun nodded and said: "It's natural, but it doesn't matter if it's earlier or later. With all of you relying on Wan Guijian for your ultimate moves, and with the winning momentum I've accumulated before, I'm bound to win this battle."
Guan Xuan said: "It's better to be earlier. We've been out for too long. The world outside has polluted my Taoist heart. It's better to go back and practice in seclusion."
He Jun said: "Junior brother is right. It would be better for us to intervene in the worldly affairs from now on. However, I think Senior Brother Lin and Junior Nephew Yu seem to have some purpose in coming here, and they may not be able to change their minds for a while."
Guan Xuan said in surprise: "Is that so? Then we can just wait."
In the other direction, Lin Daoren was standing with Yu Fu talking.
Lin Daoren said: "A few days ago, the northwest wind suddenly surged, which looked quite unusual. The wind came very strangely. There was no warning when it rose, and it fell very hastily."
Yu Fu said: "Master, does he suspect that it is that person's method?"
Taoist Lin stroked his beard and said: "The wind and sand are very big. If it is not caused by nature, only those with great supernatural powers can arrange it. I hope I am overthinking it."
Yu Fu thought for a while and said: "From the current perspective, Shuangzhou does not seem to have much involvement with this person, but if it is really this person behind the scenes, Zhu Xuanshou will not sit idly by."
Taoist Lin nodded and said: "Speaking of which, Chief Zhu Xuan is about to finish his term. He will definitely resolve this matter before he leaves. After he leaves, fellow Taoist Yun Chen is very likely to take over as the next Chief Xuan, but in Xuan's case, Before the imperial conferment arrives, the Xuan Mansion will probably be decided by Zhang Xuanzheng."
As he spoke, he suddenly sighed.
Yu Fu looked at him and said, "Uncle, are you worried about Uncle He's fight with Zhang Xuanzheng?"
Lin Daoren said: "Why not? Junior Brother He is very confident, but he has used too many methods for this battle, which is too fierce and high-spirited. I am afraid that neither side will be able to hold back by then."
Yu Fu thought for a while and said: "Now that things have happened, this fight can't stop. Fortunately, I gave Wan Guijian to Master He, so I'm not afraid of anything happening."
Lin Daoren nodded and said, "If this can be done, it would be the best."
In the middle region of Shuangzhou, between Mizhou and Duzhou, there is a huge lake that is rarely seen in the wilderness. A Qingyang fleet is temporarily stationed here, but they don't know that just a hundred miles below, there is a huge lake. There is a huge cavity filled with molten magma.
The tall-crowned old man once again stepped over the churning lava, came here, and bowed his head to the three-foot-high blue crystal stone. The tall figure in the crystal stone seemed to wake up. He then said: "Zhengguo and Duzhou will soon be undefeated."
There was no ripple in the tall figure's voice as he said, "How long can I hold on?"
The old man Gao Guan said: "The longest is only ten days, and the shortest is only five or six days."
The tall figure said: "Then let all those with potential return to the molten pool. As long as you can't find it here, then just throw it away."
The old man Gao Guan said: "Zheng Guo, don't worry, no one else knows about it except me."
The tall figure suddenly asked: "Where is Qi Jie?"
The old man Gao Guan said: "You Fuguo has been hiding in the palace these days and there is no movement, but it is the same whether there is a war or not."
The tall figure said: "I am missing a piece of Yuan Nian. Since she has completed her life promotion, I will use her to make up for it. You can arrange for her to return to the molten pool."
The old man with a high crown bowed and said: "After I go back, I will make arrangements for Zhengguo."
The tall figure stopped talking, and soon the light on the spar was extinguished again. After bowing his head, the tall-crowned old man retreated.
