As soon as he sat down, Xiao Wu got straight to the point, "Excuse me, Chief Xiao, when will the war between the Gama Empire and the Izumo Empire begin?"
This is very important, because now everything is hidden under the water, and only when the two sides start a war and the fight becomes fierce, the Heavenly Master of the Soul Palace will be unable to sit still and take action.
In Xiao Han's plan, Yunshan's killing of the poisonous scorpion of the Soul Palace Heavenly Lord was only the first step.
Xiao Wu and Xiao Wu wanted to come to the Jia Ma Empire, and then help each other wipe out the Soul Palace's revenge on the Jia Ma Empire after the death of a deity.
And maybe we can take the opportunity to cheat the Soul Palace.
Of course, as for the most important task of finding Master Yao, although it has been put on the agenda, both of them know that they are not in a hurry now and can wait for the time being.
After all, Master Yao is in his own family. He can run away from the monks, but he can't run away from the temple, and he can't escape.
As for Xiao Wu's question, Xiao Zhan was obviously prepared. Based on the intelligence recently explored by the Xiao family and the analysis of senior officials, Xiao Zhan gave the answer.
"It will be about a year or two before the war officially starts. Maybe the upcoming alchemist conference in the Jiama Empire will be the trigger."
"Alchemist conference?" Xiao Wu asked curiously.
"Yes." Xiao Zhan nodded and explained to the two of them: "The Jiama Empire holds an alchemist conference every eight years, and all alchemists under the age of thirty can participate.
The upcoming session is less than a year away, and many alchemists from the Jiama Empire and foreign countries will come to participate."
"This is an opportunity for the Izumo Empire."
"Opportunity?" Xian'er asked puzzledly.
However, Xiao Wu reacted, "For the Izumo Empire that wants to provoke a war, it is completely possible to send a senior alchemist to sneak into the alchemist conference."
"If we can win the championship, then the Izumo Empire can use this to undermine the reputation of the Gama Empire and take the opportunity to launch a war."
After all, momentum is also a very important aspect for both sides in the war.
"Of course, if this alchemist is discovered and is surrounded and killed by the strong men of the Jiama Empire, then things will be even simpler..."
Xiao Zhan took the initiative to take over the conversation and said: "A senior alchemist died in the Gama Empire. No matter what the reason was, it can be used as an excuse for Izumo to launch a war.
No matter which of these two things happens, it will not be a bad thing for the Izumo Empire."
Xiao Zhan calmed down and then said: "Moreover, the current Gama Empire and Izumo Empire are not ready for war, so it is not a good time to start a war."
After listening to Xiao Zhan's words, Xiao Wu nodded and said to himself: "Is there still one year left?"
Originally, when they came here, they thought that the matter would be over soon. They never thought that it would take at least a year before they needed to take action. They made a mistake!
"You two can travel around the Jia Ma Empire and many surrounding empires during this year.
Of course, if you don’t want to delay your cultivation, you can also practice in my Xiao family’s space. With the existence of the Yuan Gathering Formation, I believe that the cultivation speed will not be very slow.”
Seeing Xiao Wu's hesitation, Xiao Zhan took the initiative and said that this was also the arrangement Yihuang told him.
"Well..." Xiao Wu pondered for a while, and finally said: "Let's go practice! The speed of cultivation has slowed down now, and it won't take more than a year."
"Xian'er, what do you think?" Xiao Wu turned his attention to Xian'er.
The latter just nodded slightly to agree, with an extra softness in his eyes.
She understood that Xiao Wu only sacrificed his precious training time to accompany her to practice in order to take care of her, a "time bomb" who was unable to practice.
"Okay, I will have people send the information from all the surrounding countries later, and you two can set off at any time." Xiao Zhan smiled and offered his help.
"Thank you very much!" Xiao Wu said with clasped fists.
"You don't have to be polite, you two are already divided!"
After everything was discussed, Xiao Zhan asked people to take Xiao Wu and Xiao Wu to the guest room to rest, while he continued to pay attention to the follow-up news.
…
Zhongzhou, Langya Pavilion.
Xiao Han and Yulei Jingling sat opposite each other.
"How's it going? Is there any news about those guys outside Zhongzhou?" Yulei Jingling, who had a cool temper, showed a little nervousness on his face at this time, and asked in a slightly urgent tone.
Xiao Han shook his head gently, "No, I wonder if it was because the Soul Clan was too cautious. Those evil clans seemed to have disappeared without a trace."
Then Xiao Han asked again: "Where is Zhongzhou?"
"nor!"
Yulei Jingling replied with some disappointment. He thought this matter would not be difficult, but he never thought that after nearly a year, he would get nothing.
Soon, Xiao Han smiled again,
"It doesn't matter, at least I found the seal that was broken more than ten years ago."
"real?"
Yulei Jingling suddenly stood up excitedly. The incident was also bothering him at the beginning. Although he had been investigating it in recent years, he found nothing.
"Where?"
Xiao Han said with a bit of laughter and tears: "I have to say that the seal is very good at finding places..."
Yulei Jingling frowned, it seemed that the location was very unusual!
Turning his attention to Xiao Han, the meaning in his eyes was self-evident.
The latter had no intention of selling it off, "In the Wanyun Mountains near the spiritual world."
"The spirit world? Is it where the spirit clan, one of the eight ancient clans you mentioned, is located?" Meteor Thunder Jingling said based on his few impressions.
"That's right."
"This..." Meteor Thunder Jingling was speechless for a moment. He really didn't expect that he would be under the nose of this ancient race.
Thinking back to the cooperation between the Spirit Tribe and Langya Pavilion, Meteor Thunder Crystal Ling suddenly thought, "So that's when you got in touch with the Spirit Tribe?"
Xiao Han took a sip of tea and said calmly: "To be precise, they took the initiative to ask me for help."
"You?" Yulei Jingling looked in disbelief, his eyes filled with shameful suspicion.
"Are you thinking too much about ancient races?" Xiao Han couldn't help laughing.
"It's still the Dou Emperor family after all. Although it's a bit in decline, it's not like there's no Eight-Star Dou Sage. Does it still need your help?"
Yulei Jingling speculated based on his past impressions. He had already analyzed the strength of the worst Dou Emperor family. In his time, the Dou Emperor race that did not have the Nine-Star Dou Saint had long been swallowed up by others.
He, the Eight-Star Fighting Saint, saw that the current Dou Qi Continent was too weak, so he gave a big discount.
"Eight Star Fighting Saint?" Xiao Han smiled, shook his head and said:
"There are currently no more than fifteen eight-star or above Fighting Saints in the Dou Qi Continent, even if you include me. There are still a few who are basically living dead, and the leader of the Spirit Tribe is just a six-star late-stage Fighting Saint."
These words made Yulei Jingling secretly dumbfounded at the current strength of Dou Qi Continent again.
"too weak!"
"Actually, what I'm more curious about is why there was nothing left after the seal was broken..." Xiao Han said with a headache.
If it weren't for the extremely subtle remnants of evil energy that he captured at that time, he might have really let go of the Wanyun Mountain Range, and the rest would be gone.
Meteor Thunder Jingling could only respond silently. Although he suppressed the seal, he really didn't know much about this kind of thing.
