A group of ghost tribesmen cried bitterly in front of the crystal coffin. The two tribesmen were always really sad. They knew the ghost girl very well and were very loyal.
As for the ghost soldiers and tribesmen behind, they just cried along with them.
Yue Xi and Yue Lang were not sad at all. One was glad that he had ascended the throne and became king, while the other was resentful.
"Elder of the clan, let the late king rest in peace."
Yue Xi wiped her eyes and helped the two clan elders up.
"His Majesty..."
The two clan elders burst into tears, and Yuexi felt like crying too.
"Let's rest in peace..."
The clan elder wiped his red and swollen eyes.
Yuexi looked at the high priest Yuying, who shouted loudly: "The late king is buried!"
They had seen the burial ceremony and it was carried out according to the etiquette set by the devil.
Because the Moon City and Moon Palace were destroyed, the ghost girl's funeral was very simple, and even the coffin she was buried in was hastily made.
After finding a few ghost soldiers who could play musical instruments and playing flutes made of fish bones, Yuexi shouted loudly: "Rest in peace, my late king, I will definitely avenge you!"
The two coffins were slowly carried into the iceberg, the door of the tomb was sealed with ice, and the funeral was quickly completed.
"Go back to the palace, Your Majesty."
The high priest Yu Ying comforted her softly, Yue Xi nodded slightly and asked the tribesmen to help the two elders back to the palace.
Returning to the Moon Palace, the emotions of the two clan elders gradually stabilized.
"Two clan elders, you have seen the situation in Yuecheng, and you have also heard about the war between the Saints and the Humans. The Saints and the Humans will fight to the death."
"Your Majesty Bintian, I have just ascended the throne, Moon City is short of troops, and Long Chen may invade the Holy Land at any time."
"I sent envoys everywhere to invite clan elders, but with little success. I would like to ask you to lobby all parties and invite them to meet in Moon City to guard the holy realm and the holy clan."
"I can tell the two clan elders very clearly that Long Chen will definitely raid the Holy Realm after spring begins. He will!"
"Only by following me to fight against Long Chen can the Saints protect the Saints and the Holy Land!"
Yuexi now urgently needs an army to keep her throne.
Those ghost soldiers had just finished fighting and absolutely did not want to come back. They had to convince the clan elders to come forward and lead their respective clansmen to Moon City.
"I have no obligation to refuse. This matter is related to the survival of the Holy Clan. I have nothing to refuse."
The rickety clan elder readily agreed.
Another clan elder also said: "Your Majesty has your decree, and we will obey it."
It's a great day on the eve of the moon, and it will be easy to handle if someone starts.
Yue Lang suddenly said coldly: "No matter how many warriors there are, it's useless. Your Majesty and Martial Saint are not Long Chen's opponents, are we?"
"The clansmen are scattered all over the Holy Land. Long Chen is not familiar with the terrain and cannot find the clansmen. He may be able to escape the disaster."
"If we gather our clansmen in Moon City, they will be a living target. It will only make it easier for Long Chen to kill all our clansmen!"
Yue Lang's words instantly solidified the atmosphere in the main hall.
Yuying and Yumeng looked at Yuexi, waiting for Yuexi to speak.
Obviously, Yue Lang is playing devil's advocate, but he also makes sense.
At this time, no one in the ghost clan is Long Chen's opponent. No matter how many ghost soldiers there are, it is useless. It is true.
The two clan elders looked at Yuexi, waiting for Yuexi's explanation.
"One more clan member, one more strength, scattered everywhere. Do we have to give up on the Holy Land?"
Yue Xi's tone was filled with dissatisfaction, and Yue Lang's words were clearly refuting her will.
Yuelang smiled and said: "They are from the Central Plains. This holy land is not for them. They don't know how to fish, and they are not used to living in igloos. As long as we are scattered everywhere, they will not be able to find us.
We can survive the crisis.”
The two clan elders thought for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, the great elder is right. It is better to disperse than to gather."
What Yue Lang said is actually true. The ice field is so big and there is a pitch-black sea to the north. Even the ghosts don't dare to go north.
If Long Chen comes to kill them, they only need to retreat north to the dark sea.
Long Chen can't stay stationed in the ice field forever, there will always be a day when he will retreat.
"If we want to retreat, the whole clan must retreat together and cannot be separated."
"What if they divide their forces to loot? If they disperse, the saints will be divided and hunted."
"Two clan elders, you summon the clan elders according to my will. The saint clan must be gathered together and cannot be scattered and divided."
Yuexi has just ascended the throne, and she must gather the ghost clans from all over the place to establish her authority.
If we don't gather together this time, it will be difficult to find a suitable reason in the future, and her king will exist in name only.
The two clan elders thought of this, and instead of resisting Yue Xi, they worshiped: "Wei ministers have received the order, we will go now."
The two clan elders exited the main hall.
"Great Elder, when I'm talking, don't interrupt! Remember!"
Yuexi stared coldly at Yuelang.
"Wei Chen is just speaking frankly. Your Majesty, please calm down."
Yue Lang smiled and did not take Yue Xi's anger seriously.
Yue Xi looked at Yue Lang coldly and said: "The great elder can be less outspoken. You can just manage the elders of each clan."
Yuelang smiled and said, "Wei Chen, please retire."
Watching Yue Lang go out, Yu Meng said: "Your Majesty, I think Yue Lang has evil intentions."
Of course Yue Xi knew what Yue Lang was thinking. The first person who thought about becoming king was not her, but Yue Lang.
After he got the throne, it was normal for Yue Lang to feel resentful.
"Just keep an eye on them! Wait until the time is right..."
Yue Xi is already preparing to get rid of Yue Lang.
The two were an ambiguous couple not long ago, but now they have become life-and-death enemies, fighting to the death.
Friendship, family affection, and love between people are all fragile, and only eternal interests exist.
"You will eventually understand."
Yu Meng has been watching, and ghost soldiers have been arranged to guard the area where Yue Lang lives.
Yu Ying said: "Sooner rather than later. I see that the thief Yue Lang has been contacting his former subordinates. Yu Nan and Yu Lang are his minions."
Yue Xi nodded and said, "I'm thinking of an excuse. Yue Lang has some prestige in the army."
Among today's ghost soldiers, Yue Lang has the same status and prestige as Yue Xi, and the two are on par.
Taking action at this time can easily cause turmoil in people's hearts.
And the most important point is that Yue Lang's cultivation level is a little higher than Yue Xi's, so killing him is very difficult.
During this period, Yuexi has been practicing hard, intending to surpass Yuelang.
But practicing this thing takes many years, and it is difficult to achieve results in the short term.
Yuexi plans to use other methods.
"Your Majesty, what if Yuelang himself dies of illness?"
Yu Ying suddenly reminded him, and Yue Xi suddenly said: "Yes, he died of illness and had nothing to do with me."
"It's just, do you have any idea?"
Yu Ying means poisoning, but poisoning is not easy. Yue Lang is very alert and will not be easily attacked.
Yuying said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, I have a solution."
Yuexi said: "This matter must be done very carefully, and no mistakes should be exposed."
Yuying nodded and exited the main hall.
After Yue Lang came out of the main hall, he caught up with the two clan elders.
"Elder of the clan."
"Great Elder."
"Are the two elders really going to summon the clansmen to Moon City?"
Yue Lang had a sad look on his face.
The two clan elders asked back: "His Majesty has issued the decree, does the Great Elder have any other suggestions?"
Yuexi is the queen, and her title is here. They are the elders of the clan and must obey.
Yue Lang said: "The king of the Saint Clan must be elected by the clan elders. When Yuexi ascended the throne, no clan elder was present. Is she really considered the king of the Saint Clan?"
The expressions of the two clan elders suddenly changed. They didn't expect Yue Lang to speak so directly.
