Including Mr. Mingxi Cheng Jingyuan and Mr. Lingping Cheng Luo, led by four seventh-level powerhouses, the Cheng family, Jingyue Tower, Qingfu Palace, and the four famous sects of Wangzhenguan, unexpectedly all came together.
The army was wiped out?
Li Hong, the crown prince of the Eastern Tang Dynasty, looked at the newspaper and was silent in thought.
Such a lineup actually failed. The previous estimate of Chang'an City seemed to be quite wrong.
However, if Jingyue Tower betrays the enemy midway, then this news will not be so surprising.
Jingyue Tower, how far has it gone?
Is it just Yao Kui, the "Lion under the Moon"?
Or is the entire Jingyue Building, especially the building owner, secretly colluding with Chang'an?
Tan Feng, the current owner of Jingyue Tower, is a master of the eighth martial arts realm, the ghost realm.
If he had personally taken action and carried out a sneak attack, Cheng Jingyuan's uncle and nephew would not have been unjustly defeated.
"Immediately order someone to inquire about the details of Jingyue Tower, especially the whereabouts of the owner Tan Feng himself."
Li Hong, the crown prince of the Eastern Tang Dynasty, gave instructions to his attendants, who quickly accepted the order and left.
Li Hong then looked back at the information and frowned slightly.
If Tan Feng, the master of Jingyue Tower, had not rushed to Chang'an City to join the battle, then the betrayal of Yao Kui and others alone would not have been enough to wipe out the entire army of the attackers, and not even a single person could have escaped alive.
Mr. Mingxi tried his best to send messages, but he only said a few words.
The earlier information was wrong.
Regardless of whether it was intentional concealment or unintentional deception, the original information from the secret pavilion and the information sent back by the Cheng family who first explored the road were all wrong.
There must be experts in Chang'an, and the likes of poisonous fog and mist can definitely not gain a foothold here.
Chang'an's strength and weakness must be re-examined and evaluated.
On the other hand, the Cheng family explorers may have been deceived and underestimated Chang'an, and now their elder, Cheng Jingyuan, was implicated, and Cheng Luoquan was killed in the city.
On the other side of the dark pavilion, that's not necessarily the case...
A cold light flashed in Li Hong's eyes.
The chess pieces he placed in the secret cabinet should not have lied.
But the chess piece itself may have been deceived, and even misled Li Hong.
The secret pavilion is digging a hole for him.
His Royal Highness was as sinking as water.
At this time, an old eunuch came in: "Your Highness, the king has a decree, which was sent back from the front line."
Li Hong didn't seem surprised and took a long breath.
The master of the Dark Pavilion dug such a big hole for him, how could he let it go so easily?
The other party was well prepared and reported early to the king of Tang Dynasty.
However, they may not understand the whole story, and they don't know the problem of Jingyue Tower... Li Hong's thoughts were telegraphed.
He remained calm: "Send a letter to the Cheng family and ask my uncle to reply to me as soon as possible."
The old eunuch responded: "Yes, Your Highness."
Li Hong stood up: "Let's go and take the order."
Chang'an City, far away in Longbei County, quickly triggered a storm that affected half of the Eastern Tang Dynasty.
In addition to the appearance of more secret agents of the Eastern Tang Dynasty in the Longbei County area, the location of the Mountain Gate of Jingyue Tower has also become the focus of the Eastern Tang Dynasty.
The current patriarch of the Cheng family left the ancestral land of the Cheng family and went to the capital of the Eastern Tang Dynasty.
The exchange of news between the frontiers fighting other dynasties on the border and the royal capital became even closer.
Qingfu Palace had always been on good terms with the royal family of the Eastern Tang Dynasty, and there were also elders who frequently went in and out of the Prince's Palace.
Not to mention Jingyue Tower, the Cheng family lost two masters of the seventh realm, which was the heaviest loss.
Everyone in Gyeongbokgung Palace was equally concerned.
There is no news about the elder Jingtong people in the seventh realm and the precious treasure Lihuo Jindeng.
Naturally, the people in Qingfu Palace couldn't just sit back and watch.
But in the other Taoist Holy Land that we went to Chang'an City with, the situation was quite subtle.
The master of Wangzhen Guan, Zhichen Taoist, told his disciples: "Master and Uncle Yun Chen are recovering from their injuries. You will go to the capital of the Eastern Tang Dynasty on behalf of this Guan to meet the Crown Prince of the Eastern Tang Dynasty."
His last words were: "Listen more and talk less."
"Yes, Master." The disciple took the order and left.
Taoist Zhichen was left in the quiet room with a complicated expression.
Junior Brother Jiang seems to have completed the task he shouldered perfectly.
The people who went to Chang'an from Jingyue Tower and Qingfu Palace were all wiped out, and no one could come back. The two families suffered heavy losses at the same time.
But the tragedy is that none of the people they accompanied to Chang'an, including Jiang Chaoning himself, came back.
The Phantom Mist Robe, one of the three magical weapons in the temple, was nowhere to be seen.
If you really think about it, he and Wang Zhen Guan are always the ones who have suffered the most in Chang'an City.
Almost half of the direct descendants of Wangzhen Guan were buried deep in the mountains of Longling.
Two of the three major magic weapons were also lost.
Taoist Zhichen himself is seriously injured, which is also related to the old blood shadow demon in Chang'an City.
But Wang Zhen Guan can only hold on for now to avoid being attacked by other enemies.
However, for some unknown reason, the royal family of the Eastern Tang Dynasty seemed to believe that Jingyuelou was the traitor during the siege of Chang'an.
Now that Dongtang has launched an operation against Jingyue Tower, Wangzhen Guan has completely lost its previous pressure.
Under the instruction of Taoist Zhichen, the disciples even began to regain the territory previously occupied by Qingfu Palace and Jingyue Tower.
Jingyue Tower itself could not protect itself, and Qingfu Palace was also severely damaged, so the two families had to give in.
Taoist Zhichen is naturally satisfied with this.
But he couldn't tell how the situation in the Eastern Tang Dynasty would turn next.
The Forgotten Temple Master came outside, looked in the direction of Qinzhou Mansion in Longbei County, and remained silent for a long time.
There were also people in Chang'an City who were looking at him with complicated moods.
Ren Yichao, the elder of the Lingxiao sect who was temporarily stationed in the city to be responsible for the exchanges between the two sides, felt as shocked as ever at this moment.
Not because there is Chen Jiezhi of the Chen family here.
It's not because Xu Xingzhi, who was born in White Horse Academy, is here.
It's not because there is an old blood shadow demon with strange and domineering magic skills here.
It's not because of the powerful and unfathomable Mr. Wuyun.
Or the mysterious Mr. He in the academy.
It's because Ren Yichao knows that none of the above people are the masters of Chang'an City.
The people who captured the Cheng Family, Wangzhen Temple, Qingfu Palace, and Jingyue Tower were all subordinates of the mysterious city lord in the Daming Palace.
And the owner of Chang'an City did not show up at all from beginning to end.
Even so, Mr. Mingxi and others were still wiped out.
What kind of existence should the Lord of Chang'an City be like who can control powerful men such as Mr. Wu Yun and Old Blood Shadow Demon?
Ren Yichao looked solemn, wrote carefully, carefully recorded what he saw and heard, and then sent the letter back to the Lingxiao Sect Mountain Gate through Snow Eagle.
Our sect probably underestimated Chang'an before.
The cooperative alliance here is more worth looking forward to, but we must also be more cautious...
Zhang Dongyun in the Daming Palace was fully aware of this. He just smiled and did not stop it.
After sending the letter, Ren Yichao was already immersed in mixed emotions.
"No, no, it should be like this!"
Suddenly someone's voice came from the distance.
Ren Yichao came back to his senses and glanced casually.
It was several young people from the Chen family who were exchanging martial arts skills.
Watching others practice martial arts has always been a taboo in the world. Ren Yichao did not covet the Chen family's martial arts skills. After taking a glance, he turned back and prepared to leave.
But he suddenly froze, subconsciously stopped, and hesitantly turned his head to look again.
As the Chen family was a famous martial arts family in the past, Ren Yichao, the elder of the Lingxiao sect, knew something about it.
But what those young people learned and practiced were not the martial arts passed down by the Chen family...
