Before experiencing the huge impact and dominance brought by the rise of the East Palace, Tiannan had been peaceful for more than two years, and it is foreseeable that even if Li Tianlan has returned to Xuanyuan City, today's Xuanyuan City and the East Palace are still in their primitive state.
In the accumulation stage, the unimaginable huge wealth of the East Palace needs to be slowly digested. Shushan, Sighing City, and the expected Yaochi, as well as the most complicated Shengshi Fund and the remaining power of the Samsara Palace also need to be slowly integrated. The East Palace's
Young people also need time to grow up.
This stuff looks complicated, but it's actually not that confusing.
Situ Cangyue is here, Dongcheng Wudi is here, and Qin Weibai is here.
The most important thing is that Li Tianlan is here.
This means that the process of integrating various forces into the Eastern Palace may be complicated, but there will be no trouble or undercurrents.
What the East Palace needs most now is time.
It takes time to slowly digest these results.
Judging from the family fortunes and hidden backgrounds of several major forces, the East Palace actually does not need to expand externally at all. As long as the forces of Sigh City, Shushan, Yaochi and Samsara Palace are digested, with the establishment of the new group, the East Palace can already
Become one of the most powerful superpowers in Central Continent and even the entire dark world.
In other words, for the current East Palace, low-key development is more in line with their interests than high-profile expansion.
Everyone can see this clearly, and Li Tianlan naturally understands it too.
Therefore, everyone can be sure that, at least for the time being, the development of the Eastern Palace may not directly affect the pattern of Tiannan.
Before the integration of the Eastern Palace is truly completed, the young Eastern Emperor will not be eager to rule Tiannan.
Because he needs time.
For the East Palace, this is really just a matter of time.
But for the other forces in Tiannan, as long as the day when the Eastern Palace completely rules over Tiannan does not come, then they still have a chance to make a comeback.
Where the opportunity lies, no one can see it yet, but no one will deny that it does not exist.
Think optimistically, what if Donghuang falls one day?
After all, the supreme Sword Emperor of Central Continent can be killed by one sword, so the growing genius may not be without accidents.
Tiannan without the East Palace is still their Tiannan, a Tiannan that has become richer and even can make people crazy because of the existence of the East Palace.
For more than two years, although there were occasional turbulence in Tiannan Secret, most of the time it was calm. Watching the increasingly powerful Donghuang Palace rise around me, watching Li Tianlan return, to this day, there is still no one.
The power withdraws from Tiannan.
Everyone is thinking about how to destroy the East Palace and divide the property of the East Palace, but no one takes action.
calm.
Calm and quiet.
In the far south of Tiannan, the two cities controlled by the Burning Legion were peaceful.
In the far north of Tiannan, Ningbian City, which is occupied by the Freedom Corps, has begun secretly preparing to merge with Xuanyuan City. The two cities are equally harmonious.
Liberty City, located in the middle of Tiannan, is a city where countless forces in the dark world gather together. It is a bit chaotic, but it is only relatively speaking. Each force is relatively controlled, and there is no large-scale friction.
Tiandu City, which is on the same level as Liberty City, is even more stable and silent.
More than two years ago, Tiandu Purgatory gradually withdrew from the East Island, took root in Tiannan, and renamed the city Tiandu City. The forces of Tiandu Purgatory gradually gathered together, driving out all other forces in the city, and began
Use this as the headquarters to keep a low profile.
Today's Tiandu Purgatory still has a lot of power in the East Island, but it is far different from two years ago. It is headquartered in Tiannan, has not returned to Central Continent, and has left the East Island. Such an action will
Both Zhongzhou and Dongdao were dissatisfied, but they also did not touch the bottom line of either party.
From a national point of view, both Zhongzhou and Dongdao hope to make Li Kuangtu, a super combat power, and the huge force of Tiandu Purgatory a part of themselves. Two years is not a long time, and both sides are still there.
Waiting for Li Kuangtu’s choice.
Tiandu City is quiet and depressing at night.
Compared with today's rapidly developing Xuanyuan City, Tiandu Purgatory's headquarters in Tiannan did not have too much investment. When it was not called Tiannan but belonged to the Annan Kingdom, it was not considered a state in the relatively backward Annan.
What a developed area, development is extremely backward. Although it is called a city, a county in Zhongzhou or even a more developed town looks more prosperous than here.
Li Kuangtu changed the name of the city, but basically did not change the facilities here. The majestic Tongten Pavilion that once appeared in Tiandu on the East Island is gone forever, and Tiandu Purgatory is delineated in the center of the new Tiandu City.
I found an area and planned it casually, making it simple and pragmatic, striving to be safe and airtight, without any luxury.
The area in the city center, about half the size of the town, is now the headquarters of Tiandu Purgatory.
Within the headquarters area, only the elites of Tiandu Purgatory can enter and exit freely, and any forces or civilians are not allowed to approach.
In fact, there are very few other forces and civilians.
The major forces will not give up their attention to Tiandu Purgatory, but as the chaos in Snow Country gets longer and longer, people are becoming more and more uncertain about Kuangtu Li's status, and after Li Xiao also enters the invincible state, in the future
There are almost no people who have ideas about Tiandu City. The most important thing is that this is not Xuanyuan City. Tiandu Purgatory has almost no investment here, so naturally it has little value in planning.
Nowadays, there are many personnel from other forces staying here, but they are also very few. There are basically only one or two people from each organization staying here to monitor the situation in Tiandu Purgatory.
As for civilians, there are even fewer here.
When this area still belonged to Tiannan, it was a relatively lively city compared to Yongbyon and Tunan. The permanent population was also larger than the two cities to the north, with about 200,000 people. As this area was
Named Tiannan, quite a few people fled back to Annan, and some people went to the area controlled by the Burning Legion. When Xuanyuan City was officially established and developed more than two years ago, most of the people who stayed here went to Xuanyuan.
It is destined to be difficult for them to obtain the right to live in Xuanyuan City, but it is a city that is being developed and expanded all the time, and there is no shortage of resources and money, so they thought that there are enough job opportunities here and there, at least they can
Have a full meal.
The remaining small number of people went to Liberty City. Compared to Tiandu City, which was lifeless and had no desire for development and had forcibly snatched a lot of land and food, Liberty City, where major forces competed with each other and was a mixed bag, also had the opportunity to have enough to eat.
As a result, Tiandu City becomes even more desolate.
According to loose statistics, there are currently only about 40,000 people in Tiandu City, of which nearly 30,000 belong to Tiandu Purgatory, and nearly 3,000 people have now become the peripheral forces of Tiandu Purgatory.
The rest are basically people who have nowhere to go or have no nostalgia for life.
Bums, gamblers, drunkards, drug addicts, prostitutes...
These people are wandering around the periphery of Tiandu City like zombies. Overall, Tiandu City looks like a city that is lifeless inside and filled with all kinds of negative emotions outside.
Outside the Tiandu Purgatory headquarters, there seems to be strong negative energy exuding all the time.
But Phoenix still likes it here very much.
These two years have been the happiest time in her life.
Pregnancy, giving birth, she is a little weak around her, but she will still be with her often
The man accompanying her and the children are growing up little by little, the situation is gradually stabilizing, and the atmosphere is gradually calming down.
Every day here is her happiest time.
She likes Li Kuangtu and has done so for many, many years.
In order to follow in the footsteps of Li Kuangtu, she, who was not outstanding in talent, relied on all her efforts to become a half-step invincible master, and became one of the first three top executives of Tiandu Purgatory.
In order to get Li Kuangtu to look at her one more time, she used all means. She did many tasks that others didn't want to do, and killed many people that others didn't want to kill.
For decades, Kuangtu Li has been dormant in the East Island in secret. Phoenix's hands are full of blood, not only the blood of his enemies, but also the blood of his own people.
Therefore, even within Tiandu Purgatory, many experienced experts did not like her existence. At least she could clearly feel that Li Ming, who was of similar status to her, had murderous intentions towards her more than once.
Fenghuang didn't care about this. Her crazy state of treating one man as everything made her fearless of almost anything, so for more than twenty years, she became the best sword in Kuangtu Li's hands.
In terms of combat power, Phoenix is not as good as Dawn, but she is indeed the most useful.
It's just that this sword has extremely strong emotions.
So that day, everyone was in purgatory and entered the world. When Li Kuangtu brought back Prince Ziyue from the East Island, but Ziyue was still unable to get pregnant, on a rather special day, she found Li Kuangtu and expressed that she did not want to do it.
He is the best sword, and he also wants to be the best woman for her.
After losing his son, Li Kuangtu was extremely paranoid during that period, so he did not refuse Fenghuang's request.
The pregnancy process seems to be going smoothly.
But the difficulty is that Phoenix has made countless preparations before this.
Chaos broke out in the Snow Country.
Her and Li Kuangtu's son was born.
Tiandu Purgatory has come to Tiannan.
Everything calmed down completely.
During the period of recuperation, Kuangtu Li would often accompany Fenghuang, take care of her mood, and dote on their children. She gave up her martial arts and her power in Tiandu Purgatory, and she gradually felt the gentleness of Kuangtu Li.
In the past two years, she seemed to have truly transformed from a useful tool into a woman.
Kuangtu Li and his children were like the most ordinary family of three in Tiannan's peaceful time.
It's just that such good days seem destined to come to an end.
When Li Kuangtu left Tiandu City for more than three days, although Phoenix no longer managed specific affairs in Tiandu Purgatory, she could still clearly feel the changes in the atmosphere inside Tiandu Purgatory.
The first to disappear was Kuangtu Li.
Then Dawn began to disappear with a large number of elites from Tiandu Purgatory.
Tiannan is still calm.
But the storm inside Tiandu Purgatory has begun.
Phoenix began to feel restless, and in just a few days, she woke up from her dreams several times.
She asked Kuangtu Li.
But Li Kuangtu seemed to have really regarded her as his own woman and protected her very well, so he didn't say anything to her at all.
Phoenix didn't know what Kuangtu Li wanted to do this time.
But she understood Kuangtu Li's ultimate goal very well, and she could also understand the reason why he established a headquarters in Tiandu City at will, but allowed Tiandu City to continue to rot.
Because Li Kuangtu never wanted to stay in Tiandu City permanently from the beginning to the end.
His ultimate goal, his ideal headquarters of Tiandu Purgatory, is Xuanyuan City.
Always.
If this goal is interpreted from another perspective, it is to kill Li Tianlan, which is what Kuangtu Li wants to do most now.
