Thousand Tree Buddha said softly: "Such a sudden and rapid rise is really extraordinary."
After a brief pause, the pained-looking Buddha continued: "It's also possible that he secretly united with Chang'an City."
Once the words were spoken, everyone was silent.
Zhao Kuangming looked at Taoist Xuanqing.
Without him having to ask, Daozu Xuanqing understood what he meant and immediately shook his head:
"Ashamed, I can't find or contact the Taoist Master."
Qianshu Buddha shook his head: "Isn't it true for the Buddha and the Holy Master?
When it comes to Chang'an City and Xianji, the person most likely to interfere is..."
When he said this, his voice paused and he shook his head again.
In front of them, Song Emperor Zhao Kuangming and Kui Niu Clan Chief Tai Ting remained silent, as if they didn't hear what Thousand Tree Buddha said.
Daozu Xuanqing and Saint Lu were equally silent.
The people they can ask for help may not be willing to take action.
People who know how to take action, but no one wants them to intervene.
Otherwise, it is easy to invite gods but difficult to send them away. It is better to face Chang'an City directly.
But, can everything really go as they wish?
Zhao Kuangming, Xuanqing Daozu and others all looked gloomy.
"Although I don't want to embolden others' ambitions and destroy my own prestige, it seems I have only two choices at the moment."
Song Emperor Zhao Kuangming slowly spoke again: "
One, go.
The Eastern Heaven will give way to him, and we will all withdraw and find other places to re-establish our foundation..."
Tai Ting, the leader of the Kuiniu clan, looked at him: "Are you irritating me?"
Zhao Kuangming shook his head: "I don't want to leave Dongfang Cangtian more than you do."
Xuanqing Daozu asked: "What about the second option?"
Zhao Kuangming said in a deep voice: "If everyone joins forces and is no longer selfish, we may still have the strength to fight. Otherwise, we will be like a piece of loose sand and there will be no hope."
He looked at Saint Lu.
There are conflicts between the two sides, but compared with the threat posed by Chang'an City, they are nothing to mention.
If before, Saint Yiyi was still unwilling to join because of the existence of the Blood Qi Demon Lord, now the Blood Qi Demon Lord is no longer an obstacle.
The top powerhouses within the Eastern Cangtian finally have the possibility to formally unite.
Lu Shengren had no expression on his face and said calmly: "Emperor Song should think about it. Can he really put aside his past grudges with everyone and unite as one?"
When Zhao Kuangming heard this, his eyes flickered: "Is Taoist Hongqing coming back?"
Thousand Tree Buddha, Xuanqing Taoist Patriarch, and Kui Niu Taiting all had their eyes flashed slightly.
Hongqing Taoist, the founder of Taiyi Sect, was the most famous Taoist in Dongfang Cangtian.
It's just that he left for a long journey before, and there is no news about his whereabouts.
Taiyimen also suffered disaster during this period.
Apart from Chang'an City, the person who caused Taiyi Sect to suffer a lot was none other than Song Emperor Zhao Kuangming who was in front of everyone at this moment.
Strictly speaking, Zhao Kuangming did not have any grudge against Hongqing Taoist Ancestor, but against the entire Taiyi Sect.
So he didn't mind at all that when Taoist Hongqing was away, he bullied the young and kicked the Taiyi gate.
"There is news from Hongqing Taoist Patriarch."
Saint Lu nodded: "He is still a little tied up for the time being, but he will return to the Eastern Heaven soon."
Zhao Kuang said clearly: "This is good news, we have one more hope against the Lord of Chang'an City.
As for the grievances between him and me, we can put them aside for now. After he comes back, I am willing to visit him first to plead guilty and accept punishment.
As long as everyone can join hands to fight against Chang'an City."
He looked at the road saint.
The previous smoking between the two was due to Lu Shengren helping the Taiyi Sect, which led to a conflict with Emperor Song.
What Emperor Song said was, on the one hand, a compromise with Taoist Hongqing, and on the other hand, it was also meant to be heard by Saint Lu.
Saint Lu was silent for a moment.
After a while, he nodded: "I will send a message to Hongqing Taoist Ancestor."
Zhao Kuangming nodded: "This is the best thing."
Taoist ancestor Xuanqing on the side smiled when he heard this: "I haven't seen Taoist brother Hongqing for many years. In the past, we met and discussed Taoism, and I benefited a lot from him."
Thousand Tree Buddha sighed: "It would be best if we could wait for Taoist Brother Hongqing to come back."
He changed the subject: "For Chang'an right now, we can only tolerate it first."
Zhao Kuangming said: "At the same time, find out Ye Qingpeng from Southeast Yangtian and confirm his true relationship with Chang'an City."
Everyone nodded in unison.
The Taoist ancestor of Xuanqing said: "Let's return from Pindao to Southeast Yangtian, and ask the Buddha to stay in the middle of Eastern Heaven to provide support."
Thousand Trees Buddha raised his palm and said: "Thank you, Taoist brother."
…………
The Emperor of the Song Dynasty, Zhao Kuangming, really never shows up again.
The precarious Song Dynasty also ushered in its darkest moment and collapsed.
Li Shulou travels through time and space and across the galaxy.
Visit the world where the imperial capital of the Song Dynasty was located.
He didn't say much, he just lowered his Four-Elephant Immortal Killing Formation and directly enveloped the world where the Imperial Capital of the Song Dynasty was located.
The killing intent of the large formation was so awe-inspiring that people in this world fled one after another.
The formation was not activated and everyone was allowed to leave.
But those who stayed behind felt like they had swords hanging over their heads and their vests felt cold.
Fortunately, after discovering that Li Shulou had no intention of killing indiscriminately, the Song Dynasty began to organize the relocation of the capital.
The Tongtian Dynasty, which spans the sea of stars, has to give up the world where its imperial capital is located.
The surrounding star field was almost completely empty.
Affected by this, the already low morale of the Song Dynasty further plummeted.
Zong Tianxuan, Li Guqun and others effortlessly swept across the vast territory of the Song Dynasty.
Including the world that was originally the imperial capital, most of the star fields were abandoned.
After the capital was moved to the Song Dynasty, the overall area under its control shrank by nearly two-thirds before it managed to stop its overwhelming defeat.
Rather than saying that they have gained a foothold on their own, it is better to say that the turmoil caused by Chang'an City has finally subsided.
However, the beacon fire within the territory of the Song Dynasty was still far from extinguished.
Because Song Emperor Zhao Kuangming refused to leave, the Song Dynasty continued to lose territory, and the cohesion and prestige of the entire dynasty was almost collapsed.
There is no need to fight in Chang'an City, there are many worlds within the Song Dynasty, and they are beginning to follow the path of Li Guqunyun's national border, alienating the Song Dynasty and getting rid of its control.
The offensive in Chang'an City temporarily slowed down.
But the internal divisions within the Song Dynasty were at the peak of their power.
The talented people in the Song Dynasty could only concentrate on quelling the many fires burning in their own backyards.
Li Shulou retired after his success and returned to Chang'an City.
"Wait a moment before we leave." Zhang Dongyun greeted him.
Li Shulou felt something in his heart and immediately sat quietly aside.
After an unknown amount of time, his eyes suddenly lit up and he turned to look at Zhang Dongyun.
Zhang Dongyun smiled and nodded.
After a while, a big man appeared in front of them.
It is Ao Kong.
At this moment, he was less arrogant and unruly than before.
The ferocity is still there, but it is more elusive than before, making people confused and unpredictable.
"Congratulations to the eleventh brother for cultivating the realm of the devil." Li Shulou smiled.
"It's far worse than Fourth Brother." Ao Kong grinned and said, "He's just a formless demon."
Li Shulou said: "You have Qilin blood, and the way forward has been pointed out. You just need to follow the road."
Ao Kong nodded, and then said to Zhang Dongyun: "Boss, I also plan to go to Southeast Yangtian."
Zhang Dongyun waved his hand: "Fourth brother is coming with you, please be careful on the road."
