The coverage area of Invincible City has expanded, in addition to the capital city of Qinzhou Prefecture, it has further surrounded the surrounding vast world.
Therefore, in addition to Li Yi and others in Fucheng who were caught in one sweep, all the probing horses scattered around were also under the eyes of Zhang Dongyun, the city lord.
All of these people were taken down by him without a sound.
There are sentry detectives from the Tang Army, students from Baima Academy under Yue Chunsheng, Taoist priests from Qingyun Temple, etc.
The eyes and ears sent by the outside world to investigate the situation all fell into the hands of Zhang Dongyun.
People outside turned a blind eye to everything that happened in Qinzhou Mansion.
Sending people to contact and inquire again is still like a mud cow drowning in the sea.
He left without replying, and even the news could not be spread.
After Murong Ting, who was temporarily in charge of the dark pavilion, learned about the situation, he let out a long breath: "Chang'an City, take action. Prince Muping and others will probably be wiped out."
The commander of the dark pavilion under his command looked solemn: "How many masters are there in Chang'an? We have not received any news of such a powerful gathering of power before!"
He asked tentatively: "Could it be that forces from other dynasties have penetrated Chang'an?"
"There has been no news about this before." Murong Ting said, "Next, we will conduct a strict investigation on the northwest."
He paused and then said: "Qinzhou Prefecture and Longbei County, please hold off for now until I consult the King for instructions, and then act in accordance with the King's will."
"Yes, sir."
The commander did not leave, but said with a slight hesitation: "My lord, the lives of His Highness the Second Highness and others are uncertain. We can't find any information at all. The master of the pavilion is also missing now. I'm afraid the king will blame us..."
"Do your own thing first. Thunder, rain, and dew are all your kindness. Don't think too much about it." Murong Ting said in a deep voice.
"Yes, sir." The leader stepped back.
Murong Ting was the only one left. He came to the bank of the river, looked at the rushing water in front of him, and remained silent.
After a while, he took a long breath and looked much more relaxed and slightly excited.
"How does it feel to become the true master of Mingguang Pavilion?"
But at this moment, a voice suddenly sounded behind Murong Ting.
The young man's body suddenly stiffened, and the relaxed expression on his face no longer existed.
He turned around slowly.
Behind, a young man in white is smiling. Who is it if it's not Gao Yu?
The young man looked healthy and showed no signs of injury.
Murong Ting stared at Gao Yu for a long time, and finally slowly knelt down and bowed to him:
"Disciple meets Master."
"I'm asking you, how does it feel to be the upright commander of Mingguang Pavilion?"
Murong Ting lowered his head and said nothing.
"It should be excellent." Gao Yu slowly walked over to Murong Ting, who was kneeling down. Like him, he looked at the river in front of him.
"Otherwise, why bother to stir up trouble about me in front of Li Yi and use Li Yi's people to get rid of me?"
Gao Yu sighed softly: "When I sit on the throne of Tang Dynasty, you must be my master of Mingguang Pavilion, why are you so impatient?
The little things you did behind my back were my acquiescence and I would not blame you.
Then you are so eager to rebel against me, do you think I can't defeat Li Hong and the others?"
The silent Murong Ting finally stood up slowly and turned to face Gao Yu.
"How could they be your opponents, Master?"
Gao Yu smiled: "Then do you think adding you is enough?"
"This disciple has no confidence, so he just took a chance." Murong Ting said softly.
Gao Yu raised his eyebrows and looked at Murong Ting quietly.
Murong Ting seemed to be muttering to himself: "Master, you make your disciples afraid, you seem to be hiding something..."
He raised his head and looked at Gao Yu: "Brothers Li Hong, Li Yi and others only think that you are the king's illegitimate son, but the disciples think that there is something else!"
Gao Yu spread his hands: "What else can there be? You should be the person who knows me best."
"No, no...no!"
Murong Ting suddenly shouted, suddenly turning from silence to hysteria: "You don't want the throne of the Eastern Tang Dynasty! You don't want to win over Li Hong, Li Yi and the others! I don't know what you want, I don't know what you are thinking, I
I doubt even the king knows about it!"
He was breathing heavily, his eyes were blood red, and he stared at Gao Yu with a hoarse voice: "I... even doubt whether you are human after all!"
"There is no basis at all, just lies based on intuition."
Gao Yu burst into laughter, stretched out his hand and patted Murong Ting's shoulder: "But I can't help you suppress it for so long. Thank you for your hard work."
Murong Ting retreated sharply, trying to avoid the opponent's hand.
But no matter how hard he tried, the other party's hand still patted his shoulder.
And I took several shots.
Every time the palm was raised again, Murong Ting refused to give up and avoided again.
But in the end, the palm of his hand still landed firmly on his shoulder, with no deviation in the position.
The other party patted him several times without any force at all, as if they were really trying to comfort him.
But Murong Ting was completely desperate.
The terrifying and murderous intent of the warriors in the seventh level who frightened away all the people was not left at all.
"It's been such a hard work, so let's take a rest early." The other party smiled lightly.
Murong Ting's pupils suddenly contracted.
It was as if he was looking in the mirror, facing a person whose appearance and figure were exactly the same as his own.
Gao Yu is missing.
There are two Murong Pavilions in the world.
It's just that one is smiling and the other is frightened.
Then, soon, there was only one left...
"Murong Ting" moved his neck and limbs, and then left the river bank.
Not long after, the leader of the dark pavilion came to report: "Sir, there is news."
However, he is not from Qinzhou Prefecture, Longbei County.
"Hong Xiao, the dean of White Horse Academy, once fought against a Confucian practitioner?"
"Murong Ting" looked calm as always: "What's the result?"
"Visual inspection showed that Hong Xiao was superior and the opponent was defeated. However, Hong Xiao did not pursue or continue to Chang'an. Instead, he returned to White Horse Academy. The situation is unknown."
Hong Xiao, the dean of White Horse Academy, originally planned to go to Chang'an City.
Li Yi and others stayed in Qinzhou Mansion just to wait for him to meet with the Master of Qingyun Temple or the King of Tang.
As a result, Li Yi and others were wiped out, but Hong Xiao didn't go at all.
"I'm not sure if Hong Xiao was also injured." The Ange leader replied.
White Horse Academy also had conflicts with the royal family of the Eastern Tang Dynasty.
Although Chang'an is now the number one enemy of the Eastern Tang Dynasty, if he knew that Hong Xiao was in poor condition, no one could say whether the Tang King would sweep the White Horse Academy first.
At least White Horse Academy is not willing to gamble.
"Report this to the king, and at the same time continue to investigate the activities of White Horse Academy."
"Murong Ting" ordered: "Also, is there any news about Master Qingyun Temple?"
"It hasn't been discovered yet." Commander Ange replied.
The master of Qingyun Temple, who everyone is thinking about, has actually arrived in Longbei County.
He even witnessed Li Yi and his entourage chasing and killing everyone from Dahe Longmen as they passed by.
However, the master of Qingyun Temple did not appear immediately, nor did he approach Qinzhou Mansion or Longling immediately.
A disciple of Qingyun Temple first went to Qinzhou Mansion to contact the elder of the sect, Taoist Huang Ye, and convey the news that the temple master would arrive shortly.
Unfortunately, before he could reach the capital city of Qinzhou, Taoist Huang Ye and his party were completely wiped out.
This disciple later fell into the hands of Chang'an.
However, the young disciple himself did not know that there was a talisman attached to his body.
The talisman is composed of thunder and lightning, which contains the magic power of the Lord Qingyun Temple.
Like one of his eyes.
This is his unique secret method, relying on practitioners who are also members of the Qingyun Temple inheritance, manifesting "eyes" to observe things hundreds of miles away.
But unfortunately, before he could see what he wanted to see, his "eyes" suddenly went blind.
Master Qingyun Temple frowned slightly and stood silently on the spot, not pursuing him.
He looked at the distant horizon, pondered for a long time, and left here.
A few days later, through other news channels, he learned that Li Yi and others had all lost news.
A group of masters from the seventh and eighth realms, as well as tens of thousands of elite Tang troops, were all defeated.
Moreover, according to the previous news that they were guarding the capital of Qinzhou, they probably did not enter the mountains or approach Chang'an City, but were attacked by Chang'an masters and the entire army was eventually annihilated.
After learning about this situation, Master Qingyun frowned even more.
This shows that Chang'an does not rely on the powerful formations or terrain advantages in the city, but also has extremely powerful forces.
When the news came out, no matter whether it was Qingyun Temple, White Horse Academy or the Eastern Tang Dynasty, everyone was shocked.
In Chang'an City and the Daming Palace, Zhang Dongyun took down all the sentinels within the Invincible City, and then continued to project Mr. Wu Yun and interrogate everyone in detail.
He wanted to confirm how many spies the other party had sent out in total to judge whether this clean-up would expose the true scope of Invincible City.
Just like before when Li Dan and others came in with their Qingtian Eyes, he immediately noticed the spells of Master Qingyun and blocked them.
Because the disciple of Qingyun Temple had not arrived at the capital of Qinzhou yet, the master of Qingyun Temple could not see the sight of Mr. Wuyun sweeping across Li Yi, Situ Jinsheng and others.
Otherwise, the master of Qingyun Temple may be completely frightened and dare not come in.
It's a pity that the other party didn't come close to investigate the situation because the spell suddenly failed.
Compared to the King of Tang and the dean of Baima Academy, Zhang Dongyun actually hoped that Master Qingyun would come over.
If he takes down the opponent, he will know why Qingyun Temple is looking for Chen Chaoyan, who possesses the Pure Yang Immortal Soul.
What a pity... Zhang Dongyun shook his head slightly.
His projection of Mr. Wu Yun commanded everyone in Chang'an. While taking prisoners into custody, he also took care of the surrendered Tang troops.
A group of Tang soldiers from Longbei County who had completely surrendered to Chang'an acted as lobbyists, and these newly surrendered Tang soldiers quickly settled down.
However, if we want them to have no worries and serve Chang'an sincerely, the time has not yet come.
Their hometown and their families were far away in the counties and states in the heart of the Eastern Tang Dynasty.
For now, let's just work hard as a coolie.
Zhang Dongyun was thinking while checking the system task list:
[Construction Task 5.1 The city is expanding and the number of people is increasing. Please open up a new and stable financial source for the city so that the residents can have their jobs. 】
Youdao relies on the mountains to rely on the mountains. In Qinzhou Prefecture, in the mountain market town near Longling, a very important business relies on wood from the mountains.
Now that the city lord Zhang D is rich, he will certainly not let it go, and he will definitely have restraint and planning.
Compared with mining, this is easier, but if you want to form an industry on a large scale, you will need a lot of manpower.
Now that tens of thousands of labor reformers have been added to the city, there is no shortage of labor.
City Lord Zhang waved his hand with satisfaction: "Come and chop down the trees for me."
