Chapter 1083 The duplicitous old emperor
"Come here, move your seats quickly for all the heroes!"
Although the old emperor was the king of a country in the secular world, he did not dare to use the word "give a seat" to the outer disciples in the spiritual world, and could only use "move a seat" instead.
Immediately, the kind-hearted old man said again: "Xiaodouzi, let's start a feast immediately, so that we can cleanse the dust for these disciples of the Shangzong."
"I obey, little one!"
The little eunuch was just about to take the order and leave, but was interrupted by Zhao Yingxin: "No need to bother. We are only here to complete the task quickly."
"His Majesty the King should tell us more about the trouble at Willow Creek so that we can have a clear target. After all..."
Zhao Yingxin did not say the content behind "after all" clearly, but the old emperor could already imagine it and couldn't help but sigh heavily: "Alas! Shangzong twice, nearly a hundred disciples took over the task of eliminating troubles in Xia Bang, but...
There’s nothing more to say, I’m afraid the situation is already in danger.”
"For this, I feel deeply saddened."
"Okay, since you guys have no time to relax, let's get straight to the point."
"As we all know, Liuxi City, the northernmost point of our Arctic Kingdom, bordering a section of the Qitian Mountains, is an important town that produces various kinds of ores, including gold, silver, copper and iron."
"The most important thing is that there are still many spiritual stone reserves deep in the veins. Most of the spiritual stones we pay tribute every year come from the Liuxi Mine."
"But just half a year ago, an extremely horrific thing happened in the important town of Liuxi: millions of people in the three towns and eleven villages under the jurisdiction of Liuxi City were massacred overnight!"
"The bodies of those victims have not been recovered so far..."
Speaking of this, the old emperor Bei Muran shook his head sadly, and then continued: "There were many huge footprints left at the scene, like some kind of giant ape-like mysterious beast walking on two legs, and they were far away.
There’s more than one.”
"Guzeng sent elite soldiers and generals to follow those giant footprints all the way deep. He wanted to find out what kind of mysterious beast was responsible. However, two hundred thousand elite soldiers, six mysterious crystal heavy artillery, and more than a hundred generals were all involved.
Go and never return.”
"From this, Gucai realized the seriousness of the incident and asked Qingyun Sect for help..."
Hearing this, Chen Shen didn't feel much, but Zhao Yingxin frowned slightly: "Twenty thousand elite soldiers, six Xuanjing heavy artillery, and more than a hundred generals are missing?"
"According to what you said, the difficulty rating of this mission should be at least mid-level. But why did you only sign up for a low-level, high-level mission?"
"Don't you know how many sect disciples will be killed by lying about the difficulty of the task?"
"this……"
The old emperor Bei Muran suddenly felt a little embarrassed. Then, as the king of a country, he suddenly knelt down in front of everyone.
Moreover, his name for himself has also changed: "All the heroes of the sect know clearly that I am forced to do this because I have no choice!"
"The important town of Liuxi has been imprisoned, which has caused our progress in mining many mineral deposits and even the spiritual stones to stagnate."
"It just so happens that the armies of the Sea Eagle Kingdom and the Fire Stone Kingdom are coming. In addition, the tribute to the Qingyun Sect in the coming year cannot be missed. Therefore, the various expenditures of our Arctic Kingdom are already beyond our means."
"So, that's why I signed up for a preliminary mission, just to save some money on asking for help..."
"If not, there is no need to wait for the Sea Eagle Kingdom. The Flint Kingdom cannibalize from the outside. The internal financial problems alone are enough to drag my Arctic Kingdom into the abyss!"
"But please rest assured, after you decide to carry out the mission, I will also dispatch several capable generals from Liuxi Border Pass and thousands of elites to help you, so as to share the pressure on you."
Hearing this, everyone fell silent.
The old emperor Bei Muran may have been wrong, but if he thought about it carefully, if he really wanted to save money, he could have started from the low-level missions at the beginning. As time went by, he could naturally rise to the middle-level or even high-level missions. How could it be so?
Wouldn’t it save more money?
Moreover, Bei Muran was willing to send soldiers from his country to assist in the battle, which shows that although this old guy has selfish motives, he does not have a conscience.
After a moment, Zhao Yingxin opened her lips slightly: "We will make an exception this time. If you dare to lie about the mission level next time, you will not be leniently punished!"
"Yes, yes! Thank you all, Master Shangzong."
But Zhao Yingxin said again: "In addition, the border defenders do not need to join in. We will handle our tasks ourselves."
"this……"
"Hmm? Is there any problem?"
Zhou Bufan interjected: "You old emperor, don't be ungrateful. Junior Sister Zhao doesn't want your country to suffer any more losses, do you understand?"
He finally seized an opportunity to defend Zhao Yingxin, so how could he not perform well?
"Yes, yes. I have thanked you all for your kindness. However... I still decided to let my second prince accompany you on this journey."
"He once personally visited the monster's lair. Because he didn't go deep, he managed to escape from the tiger's mouth, but he also lost an arm."
"Even if the dog doesn't go deep, he still understands the local situation and can be a guide for you."
"That's it... okay, call him here immediately, and we'll set off right away." Zhao Yingxin said the final word.
No one thought there was anything wrong, but Chen Shen, with his extraordinary spiritual perception, noticed something strange: "Strange, when Zhao Yingxin said that there was no need for border soldiers to assist in the battle, why did the old emperor Bei Muran's eyes flash
A hint of apprehension?"
Immediately, the young man thought: "Recognize people's eyes, open them!"
"Buzz!"
The next moment, he clearly saw that there was a pale pink halo above the head of the groveling old emperor.
Light pink, close to red, indicates hostility?
Why? Why would he be hostile to a person like himself who has never been masked before?
Is this hostility only directed at Chen Shen alone? Or is it directed at all the Qingyun Sect disciples present?
Chen Shen didn't know, and was filled with doubts: "Could it be that after something happened to his country, the sect came to help, but still had to charge extra 'labor fees'? This made the emperor feel very unreasonable, so he
Will someone who hates Wujiwu also secretly hate us disciples?"
The young man thought for a moment and found that this was the only reason. He couldn't help but curl his lips: "It seems that Qingyun Sect is just such a piss-poor. When the so-called sect envoy was sent to find Xia Yuan, it didn't make Xia Yuan dare to
Are you too angry to speak?"
Thinking of this, Chen Shen felt relieved.
But he didn't know that when his group left the Arctic City and went to the mission location led by the second prince Bei Lieyang, the kind-hearted old emperor seemed to have suddenly changed. He said to himself with a sinister smile on his face: "
Hey, hey hey hey, here come a few more pieces of fat meat that are destined to die!"
"Looking at their cultivation, they must have more good things than the people in the first two waves combined, right? Hahahahaha..."
