Fang Yumian quickly understood what her father Fang Linghai meant.
As a genius who only took more than thirty years to cultivate to the state of becoming a god, she thinks more than the average person.
All the achievements from past and present came to her mind...
His own strength is amazing.
He has a trump card that can kill the Demon King.
Open up the Holy Land of Heavenly Master.
It sits on the land of Xingzhou and Jiangzhou.
No matter which aspect you use to match her, it is more than enough.
If she could marry such a heroic figure, she would not have any hesitation.
As for the seventy-year-old age in ancient and modern times?
This is not a problem at all.
The theoretical lifespan of Lian Shen Zhenren is two hundred years old.
Although not everyone can live to that time, if you think about it, being in your seventies is just equivalent to an average person in their thirties.
This is a successful man in the most charming moment of his life.
However, Fang Yumian thought for a moment and then shook his head: "Father, my personality is different from other people's. I am relatively strong. Although I do not reject marriage with Gu and Jin Lai, it is difficult for me to guarantee that I can settle down. When the time comes, for the sake of
Striving for power will inevitably lead to overt and covert fights with ancient and modern people. If the cause of ancient and modern times is inherited from others, I can certainly compete with him, but as a master who opened up territories, I am worried about my means.
We may not be able to suppress him, and if we are not careful... I am afraid it will lead to a fatal disaster, which will lead to the complete destruction of our relationship with Lingxiao City."
Fang Linghai calmed down after hearing this.
My daughter is indeed a restless person.
When you really enter the door of the ancient family, you will inevitably stir up trouble.
However, in ancient and modern times, people have been strong, and if they do not do well, they will only be self-defeating, losing their wives and losing their troops.
"That's fine."
Fang Linghai gave up the idea and said: "However, you are still responsible for making a trip to Lingxiao City. We really can't leave here."
"Yes, father."
Fang Yumian nodded.
…
Yuntian City.
Gu Chifeng, whose blood was surging all over his body, was a little reluctant.
"Ancestor, do we really want to retreat?"
Beside him, Cheng Wanli also looked at the past and present.
Yuntian City was saved by them.
Huang Tiandao's vitality is now severely damaged, few of the great cultivators of Transforming Gods are dead, and most of the great cultivators of Lian Shen have been lost.
As for Bao Dan, Ning Gang, Lian Qi, and their elite disciples, they suffered heavy losses.
Whether the current Huang Tiandao can still guard each city is a question, so that the forces in the city will not become unruly.
"retreat!"
Gu Jinlai said calmly: "Although Huang Tiandao suffered heavy losses, several Yuanshen True Monarchs are safe and sound, and they still have enough strength."
At this time, Gu Chaoyang stepped forward and whispered: "Ancestor, the Qingluan Sect, the largest sect in Yuntian City, came to see me not long ago. Everyone in the city is impressed by your contribution to the defense of Yuntian City, ancestor, and is willing to take action.
The city was invested in our Xingzhou and accepted the jurisdiction of Xingzhou..."
Gu Jin took a look at him.
It is not surprising that the Qingluan Sect made this choice.
Huang Tiandao suffered heavy losses. Although several true kings were still there, the sect would not suffer any losses at all. However, without enough gods, masters of the realm of gods were stationed in various cities. In the next period of time, all kinds of monsters and monsters would jump out and cause trouble.
Rain, fighting for power.
"Now is not the time to occupy Yuntian City and half of Huangzhou."
It has been said bluntly throughout the ages.
His eyes couldn't help but glance in the direction of Tianhe.
In the state of Qian Tian Zi Qi Jue, most of the light beam of luck belonging to the demon in the direction of Tianhe dissipated.
but……
Compared with the imagination of ancient and modern times, it was completely dissipated, or reduced to the level of clouds rising from the mountains, but it was still far behind.
In other words, the Tianhe Demon still has the strength to fight.
Ancient and modern people have guessed a few months ago that the power of demons is not as simple as it appears.
They are hiding their stupidity.
The main reason for hiding one's weakness is to worry about being too strong and arousing the hatred of all human forces, so that they can be completely destroyed before they are sure to overthrow the Great Qian.
And as a force that can traverse the north and south of the Tianhe River...
One crocodile dragon king and one hundred thousand demons are by no means all the power possessed by the demons.
Since the Muzhou demons had already gathered together and were much more powerful than the Tianhe demons, he had to keep Huang Tiandao alive and let Huang Tiandao attack the Tianhe demons in front of him.
As for himself, he mobilized troops to reinforce Muzhou and exterminate the demonic force that was more terrifying than the Tianhe demon before discussing other matters.
Otherwise, even if he finally pays a certain price and eliminates Huang Tiandao and Leng Yuezong is defeated, the situation he will eventually face will be more severe than before.
"We in Lingxiao City want to withdraw, but we don't have to show it... We may even have to continue to advance into surrounding towns under the guise of exterminating demons... At least, this must be the case before Huang Tiandao gives enough benefits."
Tao from ancient times to modern times.
"Are you blackmailing Huang Tiandao?"
Although Gu Chaoyang, Gu Chifeng, Cheng Wanli and others felt a little regretful that they could not completely occupy Huangzhou, their ancestor had already made a decision, and they had no choice but to obey the order.
Not long after Gu Jinlai and others discussed the next action strategy, Jiang Chongshan appeared outside the main hall where he was handling matters of all sizes.
Accompanying him was a middle-aged man wearing armor who looked mighty.
After thinking about it for a while, I quickly thought of a piece of information reported by Cheng Wanli two hours ago.
At that moment, he went out to welcome him and said with a smile: "His Royal Highness Star King, you are here."
After saying that, he bowed his hands to the middle-aged man and said, "Is this General Beishang of Shang Town? I have long admired his name."
There was a hint of guilt in Shang Zhenbei's eyes: "I'm not worthy of it. I was ordered by His Majesty to come to support the Lord of Guzhou, but...the demons are so powerful that there are countless of them. It is inevitable that the soldiers I lead will fall into the torrent of demons and be completely wiped out. , I had to stop at the north of the Tianhe River and wander around to hunt down some fish that slipped through the net among the demons, leaving the Lord of Guzhou to fight alone."
It seems quite open-minded throughout the ages.
After all, according to his understanding, even if Shang Zhenbei decided to go south at the critical moment, with all 30,000 of his elite men, it would probably take several days to cross the river.
By the time they arrived at Yuntian City, the battle was already over.
So it doesn't matter whether they come or not.
What is needed throughout the ages is a positive response signal from the royal family.
This signal would at least allow him to guess the royal family's attitude toward him.
"I'm very grateful that General Shang is here. In addition, although you didn't go south north of Tianhe, you also restrained a large number of demon troops for us. Otherwise, our process of chasing down the demons would not be so smooth."
Tao from ancient times to modern times.
The two parties exchanged pleasantries and quickly took their seats one by one.
At this time, Jiang Chongshan said: "Gu Tianjun, my imperial brother has issued an order to officially appoint you as the head of Xingzhou. You have the power to control Xingzhou. The next matter of protecting the people's livelihood of Xingzhou will be left to Gu Tianjun." is you."
"Your Majesty gave the order?"
It's a bit unexpected in ancient and modern times, but I think it's reasonable.
In the past few decades, the control of the Daqian royal family over the surrounding major states has continued to decline. Some major states, such as Huangzhou, Lanzhou, Jiangzhou, Chizhou and other places, belong to the Daqian in name, but in fact their orders are not at all Not accessible locally.
This is true even for the Xingzhou we have occupied throughout the ages.
Unless Da Qian is willing to send a heavenly being to seize power in Xingzhou, even if it is the True Lord of Yuanshen who comes, he will flee back to Zhongzhou in despair before long. If he does not know what is good and what is good, he may even be in danger of death.
At present, Emperor Daqian has officially canonized him as the Lord of Xingzhou, which is just to rectify his name.
On the one hand, selling him is a benefit.
on the other hand……
Create a sense of presence in Xingzhou again.
Let the people of Xingzhou know that Xingzhou is still under the jurisdiction of Daqian.
I have tried to understand the cause and effect, but I still stood up and said: "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. I will do my best to protect Xingzhou and prevent the 60 million people of Xingzhou from being persecuted by demons."
"Since Your Majesty has enthroned Gu Tianjun as the Lord of Xingzhou, I believe that Lord Gu will not disappoint His Majesty's high expectations."
Shang Zhenbei followed with a smile.
At this time, Jiang Chongshan said again: "Brother Huang also canonized me as the head of Jiangzhou. However, I don't have enough manpower to mobilize. Moreover, Jiangzhou is full of waste and is waiting for development. Therefore, all major and minor matters in Jiangzhou must also be dealt with." Thank you, Gu Tianjun, for your help in taking care of it."
"Jiangzhou?"
Ancient and modern people quickly guessed what Emperor Qian was thinking.
seem……
The Emperor Qian's attitude towards the Star King was not as fearful as rumored.
However, thinking that Jiang Chongshan was actually able to obtain top-notch techniques such as Qiantian Purple Qi Jue, he also felt that Star King Jiang Chongshan's previous performance was just for show to the world.
At that moment, he bowed his hand again: "I will not disappoint His Majesty the Star King."
At this time, Shang Zhenbei said again: "Master Guzhou, I have taken the liberty of visiting you this time and have an unkind request. I hope Master Guzhou can agree to it."
"oh?"
"Xingzhou's heavy artillery called sharp swords are truly extraordinary weapons. Regardless of the cloud-winged arrow chariot or the Vulcan cannon, they are worthless in front of such sharp swords and heavy artillery, especially since the kill is already huge. , when a demon is tenacious and lacks flexibility, it is far better than any kind of war weapon, so..."
Shang Zhenbei looked at the past and present. Before the next words were spoken, Jiang Chongshan had already taken the lead and said with a smile: "Does General Shang want to buy swords and heavy artillery from Lingxiao City on behalf of the emperor?"
Shang Zhenbei was stunned.
His original intention was that Lingxiao City would dedicate the refining method of sharp swords and heavy artillery to the royal family.
After all, the royal family has more heavenly masters, great heavenly masters, and heavenly kings.
Coupled with the resources at the royal family's disposal, if they were allowed to produce sharp swords and heavy artillery, the efficiency would be many times higher than that of Lingxiao City.
As long as there are enough sharp swords and heavy artillery, exorcism of demons is by no means an empty talk.
But His Highness King Xing...
He glanced at Jiang Chongshan.
I vaguely guessed something.
Is he worried that Lingxiao City will reject him?
Once Lingxiao City refuses...
Thinking of the treasure he held in his hands throughout the ages, which was said to be equivalent to a strike from a peak heavenly being, Shang Zhenbei suppressed his original thoughts.
His Majesty still has to make the decision himself whether to use a refining method or not. He is not qualified.
For a moment, he had to change his words: "Yes, we do intend to purchase sharp swords and heavy artillery from Lord Guzhou on behalf of the imperial capital to fight against the demons. I don't know what Guzhou's idea is."
Throughout the ages, Shang Zhenbei and Jiang Chongshan had already seen the silent exchanges between them.
"Although the production efficiency of our sword and heavy artillery in Lingxiao City is extremely slow, if it is to fight against demons, we are still willing to sell some of it to the Imperial Capital. However, the refining cost of the sword and heavy artillery is high..."
"Expensive?"
Shang Zhenbei thought of the power of sharp swords and heavy artillery.
With the help of digital elite operations, the Celestial Master's Apprentice can kill high-ranking monsters. It is reasonable for such a heavy weapon to be expensive.
"I wonder how much Gu Tianjun plans to price a sharp sword and heavy cannon?"
"I will naturally give you a cost price for selling it to the Imperial Capital, which is ten immortal gold."
