After Tianxiahui was destroyed by Long Chen, Ji Xianxian met Wu Yue and Zuo Si and wanted to pick up the remaining things of Tianxiahui and turn them into her own.
In the beginning, Wu Yue and Zuo Si did follow Ji Xianxian's instructions.
In any case, Ji Xianxian is the princess of Qielan Kingdom, Ji Ba has become a useless person, and the only hope of recovering the country is Ji Xianxian.
When Ji Zhang returned, Wu Yue and Zuo Si immediately returned to Ji Zhang's command.
Ji Xianxian is the princess of Qielan Kingdom, but she has an ambiguous relationship with Long Chen. Wu Yue and Zuo Si have some objections in their hearts.
Especially in the process of destroying Tianxiahui, Ji Xianxian added insult to injury and became an accomplice.
Ji Zhang left Yanmen Pass and defected to the ghost tribe, so Wu Yue, Zuo Si and the others, including Ji Ba, should have also defected to the ghost tribe.
Xiaoqin said: "The news I got is that they have all left, and the stronghold near Zhenna City has been abandoned."
Ji Zhang established a stronghold near Zhennan City. Ji Xianxian actually knew about it but did not interfere.
"As expected, they are all gone. Now...hey...it depends on fate."
Ji Xianxian sighed helplessly.
Long Chen is a very powerful person. Even if Ji Zhang's hands and eyes are as strong as the sky, he will probably fall into Long Chen's hands.
Ya'er advised: "Madam, forget it, there is a king on one side and a pervert on the other, you can't bear to let go."
"Let them fight on their own, as long as they don't help each other."
Ya'er knew that Ji Xianxian was in a difficult situation and it was inappropriate to help anyone. It would be best not to help anyone at all.
Ji Xianxian pinched her eyebrows with both hands and said, "I don't want to think about this anymore. Let's talk about the next step. Find them. I want to discuss sending troops."
Ji Xianxian was very entangled in the deadly fight between her father and her lover, and could only temporarily forget it by replacing it with other things.
Xiaoqin immediately went to Ma Sanmei and other generals to discuss the matter.
...
Snowy mountains.
The empress and Long Chen finally returned to the foot of the mountain. The traces of the battle were still there, and the boulders lay quietly in the snow, covered with some snowflakes.
The two walked slowly up the road, and when they entered the cave, they saw an injured guard lying in the corner.
The guard was startled when he saw someone coming in.
"Spare your life, spare your life..."
The guard huddled in the corner begging for mercy.
When Gui Tai and Long Chen were fighting, these guards were helping out in the snowy mountains. Later, Gui Fei escaped and the white-haired monster appeared. The guard had no time to leave and was affected by the white-haired monster's snowstorm. He was seriously injured and hid in a cave to rest.
Everyone left, the ghost tire abandoned this stronghold, the white-haired monster was beaten away by Long Chen, and Long Chen and the empress also left.
Therefore, the guard feels that this place is safe.
I never expected that Long Chen would actually come back.
The empress was filled with fire, and when she saw the guard, she immediately wanted to kill him.
Long Chen stopped the empress and said, "Let me handle it."
The empress snorted coldly and entered the cell through the side door.
Emperor Ling had lived in a prison cell, and the empress wanted to take back the things that Emperor Ling had used as a souvenir.
Long Chen walked over slowly, and the guard was trembling.
This guard has the cultivation level of the middle stage Martial Emperor, but in front of Long Chen, this kind of cultivation level is nothing. Long Chen can kill him with a backhand.
"King Wu, spare your life... spare your life, I'm just a guard."
The guard was huddled in the corner, shaking all over and bleeding from his wounds.
Long Chen knelt down and asked, "What's your name?"
The guard did not dare to hide anything and replied: "Zhang Jun."
Long Chen asked: "How many years have you been here?"
Guard Zhang Jun replied: "About...57 years."
Actually, Zhang Jun doesn’t remember it very clearly, because in the snowy mountains, time becomes less important.
Long Chen reached out and opened his clothes and took a look at the wound.
The left rib was penetrated by a blunt object, and the wound was very irregular, as if it had been hit by a stone.
"Did that monster hit you with its rock?"
Long Chen put down his clothes, and guard Zhang Jun replied: "Yes, when King Wu and the monster fought fiercely the day before yesterday, the little one had no time to escape when he came down the mountain."
"King Wu, please spare my life. I have never done anything harmful to King Wu, and I will never do anything in the future."
It was obvious that this guard did not want to die.
"I can save your life, but you have to listen to me in the future."
Long Chen looked at guard Zhang Jun very seriously.
Guard Zhang Jun didn't expect Long Chen to say this. He couldn't believe it and asked: "King Wu is willing to take in the little one?"
Long Chen nodded and said: "I can take you in, but you must serve me in the future. If you dare to betray me, I will crush you to ashes."
The guard's wounds were too serious, and there was no one around to suck blood. If he was dragged down, he would die.
Long Chen's helping hand at this time was a gift of renewal.
"Young one is willing to follow King Wu, even to the death, and will never betray you!"
The guard was overjoyed and immediately agreed to join Long Chen.
Long Chen cut his palm open, and the guard was stunned for a moment. He immediately knelt down, raised his head and opened his mouth. Blood dripped into his mouth. The guard felt that the blood and energy in his body suddenly came to life.
Long Chen didn't give too much, just enough to keep the guards alive.
"You need to heal your wounds first."
Long Chen bandaged the wound and gave him another pill. The guard immediately swallowed the pill and sat at the foot of the wall to practice.
Long Chen walked into the side door, and the first thing he saw was the cell where Long Teng was held. The things inside were very simple.
There are some things written on the wall, which are records of Long Teng's days, and there are also things similar to diaries.
After Long Chen read everything, he came out of the cell.
Long Chen had no memory or feelings for Long Teng.
Walking inside, the Empress was carefully packing up the things that Emperor Ling had used, especially the clothes that Emperor Ling had worn. The Empress put them all away and folded them.
Long Chen did not disturb the empress and searched for useful things in the cave alone.
The ghost fetus learned the lesson from the last White Bone Mountain attack and took away all the useful things. Long Chen didn't find anything valuable.
After turning around, Long Chen returned to the cave where he entered. Guard Zhang Jun had already recovered.
The wound is healing and my complexion is obviously much better.
"Thank you King Wu for saving your life."
Zhang Jun was very moved. Under Gui Tai's men, there were only beatings, scoldings and threats. Long Chen looked much better than Gui Tai.
"Don't be polite. If I give you a favor, you must also be loyal to me. This is an exchange of equal value, not a favor."
Long Chen spoke very directly, Zhang Jun kowtowed and said, "I will definitely repay King Wu for saving my life."
Even if Long Chen wanted Zhang Jun to serve, it would still be better than a ghost fetus.
The ghost fetus requires his subordinates to work hard, but does not give any benefits, only punishment and threats.
The art of controlling subordinates should be done with both kindness and power. Punishing blindly will only arouse resistance.
Even if his subordinates can't resist for the time being, once someone more powerful appears, they will immediately join their new master.
"Let me ask you, the Empress of Eastern Zhou Dynasty and Long Teng, where did they go?"
Long Chen didn't ask just now because Zhang Jun's body was not well yet. Now that he was well, Long Chen immediately asked about the whereabouts of Di Ling and Long Teng.
Zhang Jun answered truthfully: "Before King Wu came, the Holy Son...oh no, it was the ghost fetus. The leader of the ghost fetus faction moved the people away. As for where they went, I don't know."
"This matter is very secret. It is impossible for the ghost to let us know. King Wu Mingjian, I did not lie."
Long Chen had already expected that Gui Fei would be secretive in his work, and ordinary guards would have no idea where the person had gone.
The empress walked out of it, holding something left by the emperor's spirit in her hand.
Seeing that Zhang Jun had recovered somewhat, the empress frowned and asked, "Why did you save him?"
