Jiang Yu remained silent, staring blankly at the red token inserted into the ship's plank in front of him. In addition to unwillingness, there was also a trace of imperceptible sadness in his eyes.
"The Land of Four States"
Xu Wei put his hands behind his back with a sneer on his lips: "This is my bottom line. If you don't agree, there's no need to talk anymore."
"Four States?"
Jiang Yu raised his head and looked at the sky. It was past midnight and it was already the beginning of Shen Shi. The scorching sun in the sky was already setting in the west.
"Brother Xu, can you give me another two hours to think about it?"
Xu Wei frowned and became even more impatient. However, when he saw the cold and indifferent look in Jiang Yu's eyes, he finally suppressed his anger and said: "Forget it, I will listen to you again in an hour."
I only hope Brother Jiang for the answer, don’t let me down.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Wei's whole body suddenly began to 'dissolve' and turned into water, overflowing from the bow of the boat and flowing into the Feng River.
"I am the king? Are you the king of Dinghai? The country has not yet been settled, and you have already become the king——"
Jiang Yu sat quietly for a full moment before speaking again. With a slight flick of his sleeves, the hatch behind him suddenly opened, revealing the figure of a woman.
"You can come out now"
The woman was dressed in lake green clothes and walked out cautiously. She was tied with a thin silver chain to restrain her true energy. Her face was extremely pale, and her eyes were full of surprise and uncertainty.
And Jiang Yu also reached out and took the chain back into his hand.
"I have offended many people before, please don't blame Miss Zhuang. Jiang has no choice but to do so."
Hearing this, Zhuang Xiaohu couldn't help but smile angrily, full of disdain. He thought that if Master Yishan hadn't pressed him, then if Xu Wei had been more generous and willing to give back several more states, she was afraid that Zhuang Xiaohu would
He offered it up on the spot to bring joy to the Yishan Sect and Xu Wei, and to clarify their aspirations.
However, she was still afraid and a little worried. She looked at the water on both sides of the boat and did not dare to speak.
"Don't worry, with the two of us here, even if you are in the realm of Yuanshen, you won't be able to hear a word from here ten miles away. He is too confident. At this time, the founding of the country is about to take care of everything, so he will not pay too much attention to this place.
Jiang Li shook his head with a complicated expression: "You must have heard everything I said to Xu Wei just now?"
"Yes." Zhuang Xiaohu's eyes flashed and he replied cautiously: "Senior just said that I would give him a reply in two hours."
It is now the beginning of Shen Shi, and as long as there is more than one hour left, it will be the beginning of the evening and the beginning of the month.
“It’s good to have you as a witness.”
Jiang Li nodded slightly and said in a leisurely voice: "Just now I was thinking, it turns out that I, Jiang Yu, am still unwilling to give in after all. Nearly half of the ancestral property of the thirty-four states of Li country has been lost in my hands. In the future, even if I am ashamed to see my ancestors under Jiuquan, I will not give in."
Jiang family
, I have worked hard for the Yishan Sect for thousands of years, but in the end I ended up like this. I just want to ask, is Master Jiefa really that committed? You, Lichen, already know that there are water apes lurking under the nameless mountain, so what are the consequences?
What kind of arrangement?”
"What kind of promise did Master Jiefa make? Is it important? Senior, if you can bring Dongli to a country, you will fall to Lichen. I will never worry about the Lichen Sect not looking favorably on your Dongli royal family, and you will be treated more favorably."
The corners of Zhuang Xiaohu's lips were slightly curved, and he smiled with a guilty conscience, but he also expected that Jiang Li would not be able to use soul-searching or other magic to check her past memories at this time, so his words were full of confidence.
"As for the real person, how did he arrange it? How can I, a slave, know about it? Because no one knows my identity except as a disciple of Li Chen, I was sent to send a message to senior. This time, senior does not need to take risks, just
Just make a choice at the critical moment.”
Jiang Li raised his sword eyebrows and fell into deep thought. His expression changed from gloomy to clear, and finally turned into determination. At this moment, Wang Xiu suddenly said: "You have really decided. From now on, you will turn to Li Chen."
Under the sect? Leaving a country in the east and changing its banner from now on?"
"If I don't want to split the territory and allow Nash Wei to succeed, I have no choice."
Jiang Li raised his head, his eyes sharp and shining: "Old friend, what do you think?"
"If it is true what this woman said, the Lichen Sect has been prepared for a long time. Then the plans of the Taiping Dao and the Yishan Sect will never succeed. Even if Xu Wei succeeds by chance, the two kingdoms of Wu and Li will inevitably be in war. Of course, the Yishan Sect
We relied on the Taiping Road, but after the Lichen Sect, we also had Chiyin City as our support."
Wang Xiu smiled casually, stood up and said, "In that case, you and I have the chance to jump out of this broken ship this time, and the result is not bad."
"This answer is indeed your character."
Jiang Yu said, "Hey," and then looked to the north with deep meaning in his eyes: "But I still want to see what kind of methods that person will use to defeat Yishan?"
Zhuang Xiaohu listened to the conversation between the two and closed his mouth knowingly. He thought that Zhuang Wudao had really hit the mark. This was the supreme king of Dongli Kingdom, and he might not be willing to do so.
But at this moment, she felt even more uneasy and high in her heart. This place had been finalized, but she didn't know what kind of arrangement Zhuang Wudao would have to turn things around in a desperate situation?
※※※※
At the same time, in the territory of Dongli Kingdom, beside an unknown small lake, Su Qiu's mind was filled with dark clouds. However, it was not visible on his face, only a slight look of concentration appeared.
"It seems that some real people in the sect want us to evacuate separately."
The person who spoke was none other than Jiuzhen Taoist from Cuiyun Mountain. He was holding a talisman edict from Lichen Benshan with a rather surprised look on his face. Apparently he was also puzzled as to why several Yuanshen Daoists from Lichen Benshan were so decisive.
.
"Divide into four groups, each taking one side. Even if the Yishan Sect has been planning for a long time, they dare not intercept all four groups.
It is impossible to intercept four routes at the same time, but one of them must be left in the territory of Dongli State. It is not a cutoff, but more like a cutoff. Once intercepted, there will be no chance of survival.
Only the Su Qiu road in Xuanling Mountain is the most dangerous.
"A few real people have clearly seen that this method is quite appropriate."
Wei Feng nodded lightly and looked around at everyone: "So what do you think?"
"I feel something is wrong"
Chi Lingzi frowned: "Escape separately. I'm afraid that if you sacrifice more in the end, your life will suffer, so we still have to think of a more appropriate way."
"But I think what these real people said does make sense."
Su Qiu finished speaking unexpectedly, then smiled coldly and looked into the depths of the lake ahead.
For a moment, clouds and mist hung over the lake. Murderous intentions were hidden, as if there was an invisible ferocious beast lurking inside, sharpening its claws.
At this moment, I don't know how many cultivators are afraid of me near this small lake. Only Su Qiu can sense that there are no less than twenty Jindan cultivators, as high as 300 people in the Foundation Establishment Realm, faintly surrounding them all.
"Yishan Sect is setting up the formation. Once it is completed, you and I will not be able to leave even if we want to."
"only--"
Taoist Jiuzhen opened his lips as if he wanted to say something more. He went to see Su Qiu and shook his head slightly at him. He said no more at that moment and said decisively: "Then let's make some preparations and break out together."
"Since three of the four of us have agreed, then it's settled. It's very good."
After Wei Feng finished speaking, he said in a deep voice: "After breaking through, please be careful. You and I will do our best in this battle. After being intercepted, don't have any complaints. I only hope that after returning this time, I
Let’s wait until we can see each other again.”
After he finished speaking, he glanced at Su Qiu with pity and ridicule, then left with a big smile.
Chi Lingzi's face was pale, and finally he flicked his sleeves slightly, and left with a gloomy face and hands behind his back. Taoist Jiuzhen also clasped his fists helplessly, followed closely, and walked away from the lakeside.
Cuiyun Mountain has always been on good terms with Xuanling Mountain. There are not many golden elixirs, only ten. Over the past hundreds of years, they have always followed the lead of the True Master.
However, the reason why Cuiyun Mountain follows Xuan Ling is because the Xuan Ling lineage has been able to take care of and safeguard the interests of Cuiyun Mountain disciples for thousands of years.
However, today, there is absolutely no way for them, Cuiyun Mountain's lineage, to take the place of Xuanling Mountain and risk the lives of their disciples. At most, they can only argue with Su Qiu based on reason.
But since Su Qiu gave up on her own, Jiuzhen couldn't say anything more.
The three of them had already moved away. Only Su Qiu held her sword in her hand and continued to look at the lake with indifferent eyes.
"Master, what does he mean by this? Why would he agree to such a ridiculous thing? Even if the three of us are cut off, it would be better to evacuate. Keeping some disciples can at least preserve the hope of the revival of the Xuanling Mountain lineage."
Su Qiu didn't need to look back to know that the person speaking behind him at this moment was his senior brother Han Wenhai. Also this time, one of the two golden elixir elders from Xuanling Mountain came with him.
"I only know that Master respects him and will never let us down."
Su Qiu's eyes gradually condensed, revealing a bit of expectation: "Since Master has agreed to our separate evacuation, he must have deep intentions. In the past two hundred years, has Master Jiefah ever let you or me down?"
"Can--"
Han Wenhai hesitated to speak, saying that when manpower is exhausted, the situation has reached such a point that even Master Jifa may not be able to reverse it.
However, when the words came to his lips, he changed his mind: "Junior brother, what he said is reasonable and reasonable. He has never let you or me down."
What if he was disappointed? The real person treated him with great kindness. Even if he really lost his life, he would have no regrets.
The words fell behind, and Han Wen Haibian silently looked to the north. The key to whether they could successfully retreat in this battle was whether the Wuming Mountain, the 'Forward and Reverse Instruments Immeasurable Sky Formation,' could respond in time.
However, I heard that Ji Qiwu had escaped early and Xuan Jizi was not here. At this time, the only person in charge of the overall situation in Wuming Mountain was Zhuang Wudao.
However, this boy is only twenty years old and has little knowledge. His cultivation is only at the level of Qi training. He has a mixed reputation in Xuanling Mountain. Can he really take on such an important task?
A sense of despair filled his heart. Han Wenhai glanced at Su Qiu's back and thought that he, Junior Brother Su, probably had no hope and just wanted to follow his master's orders and fight to the death.
