In the early morning, He Bayue's figure appeared in the Imperial Palace of the Northern Wei Dynasty.
The palace was very quiet and empty.
He passed through several palaces until he arrived outside the Imperial Study Room of the Northern Wei Emperor, and then stopped.
There was someone in the imperial study, but it was not the Emperor of the Northern Wei Dynasty, but two elderly officials.
His brows furrowed.
He pushed open the door of the royal study and looked at the two elderly officials who looked shocked.
He recognized one of the officials, and the official who met him also recognized him.
So he looked at the old official and asked: "Master Zhang, where has the emperor gone?"
The old official didn't say anything nonsense, and there wasn't much other expression on his face. He just shook his head and said: "I don't know."
"What about the rest of them?"
He Bayue looked at him and then asked: "Why are you so calm?"
"Shortly after the vision in Shangqiu last night, the Holy Father issued an oral order, asking the officials not to enter the palace for the time being. At the same time, he also dismissed the worshipers in the palace, saying that if the demon sect or you enter the palace, we will treat each other with courtesy. The two of us
I will follow the Holy Spirit's instructions and handle some court affairs." The old official looked at He Bayue and replied.
"Treat each other with courtesy?" He Bayue looked at the two old officials, his face showed no obvious change, and he just repeated these four words.
The old official said: "Exactly."
"You just abandoned the palace and ran away?" He Bayue shook his head and couldn't help but murmured to himself softly.
However, at this moment, he suddenly sensed some continuous energy fluctuations in the distance.
His eyebrows raised slightly, he felt silently for a moment, and the expression on his face became complicated.
There is a war beginning.
From the vitality fluctuations that he could clearly perceive after being composed of many small vitality fluctuations, and from the location where those vitality fluctuations occurred, he instantly determined that one of them was Achai Chen's army still staying in the Northern Wei Dynasty.
One side of the war was Achai Chen's army, and the other side was naturally related to the Northern Wei Emperor.
Originally, in his opinion, after the Emperor of the Northern Wei brazenly launched the Guanlong War at all costs, it was impossible for the army of the Northern Wei Dynasty to fight another major battle. Both the armaments and the physical strength of the border troops were no longer possible.
Support them to fight the next war so quickly.
However, it turned out that he was wrong.
Of course, this miscalculation would not cause a big blow to his confidence, but his mood at this time was a bit complicated.
In his plan, the Demon Sect had been waiting for the fruits of his harvest, but it appeared in front of him early last night, and even if he was sure that the Demon Sect was seriously injured and dying, even if he could survive, he would only survive with great reluctance.
As far as personal strength is concerned, it is no longer possible to pose any threat to him.
But he did not successfully obtain the Netherworld Divine Silkworm and the Nine Netherworld King Sword.
Although the destiny blood box can also make him continue to become stronger, he is very humble by nature. He feels that since Emperor You paid more attention to the Netherworld Divine Silkworm, and since the Netherworld Divine Silkworm is used as his natal magical weapon, it naturally means that the Netherworld Divine Silkworm is far more important than the Netherworld Divine Silkworm.
The destiny blood box is important.
And before the Guanlong War, even if the old woman in the palace passed away with his father He Badu, before the Northern Wei Emperor fully showed his power and exposed the shadow, he would not dare to do anything casually.
Enter the Imperial Palace of the Northern Wei Dynasty.
Now he has defeated the Demon Sect, killed Shen Nian and obtained the complete supreme method of Emperor Netherworld. In a sense, even if he did not obtain the Netherworld Divine Silkworm and the Nine Netherworld King Sword, he has completely replaced the Netherworld King Sword. Shen Yue’s location.
Because Shen Yue did not have the Netherworld Divine Silkworm and the Nine Netherworld King Sword back then, and he even had more destiny blood boxes than Shen Yue.
The other people who had slipped through the net and practiced Youdi's related skills, as well as the Emperor of the Northern Wei Dynasty and others, were no longer a threat to him. He could walk around Luoyang and the palace at will, but he did not expect that this empty and even deserted palace would actually be a threat to him. "Treat each other with courtesy", just let him take it.
This already made him feel that his punch had landed in the air, but the battle, or encirclement and suppression, against Achaizhen's army at this time made him feel even more that the Emperor of the Northern Wei Dynasty seemed to know that they could not stop him from changing. When they become stronger, they simply leave him alone and just concentrate on doing what they can do.
You do your thing and I'm busy doing mine.
Seems to be unrelated to each other?
This made him feel even weirder.
Not caring about him at all and only doing what he can do makes him seem unable to control the chess game, leaving him with no calculation at all, and he has to catch up with these people.
….
There were many fortresses and beacon towers on the border between the Southern Dynasty and the Northern Wei Dynasty.
In terms of conveying military information, the methods used by the armies of both the Southern Dynasties and the Northern Wei were roughly the same.
Fireworks combined with flags, homing pigeons and falcons, if all these methods are used, the speed of military information transmission will be astonishing.
In the past, things that happened in the Northern Wei Dynasty were transmitted to the Southern Dynasty, or things that happened in the Southern Dynasty were transmitted to the Northern Wei Dynasty. What delayed the most was the border between the two sides.
The border troops of the Southern Dynasty and the Northern Wei Dynasty would try their best to intercept and kill each other's carrier pigeons and falcons. As for fireworks and flags, someone must be able to convey the exact military information from the other side's territory to their own fortress.
If the fastest homing pigeons and falcons are intercepted and relayed by personnel, the delay may take a day or two, or it may take several days. If the blockade is perfect, some military information may not be revealed to the opponent until ten and a half months later. The military knew.
Therefore, before this, some things that happened in Luoyang often took about half a month at the fastest to be known to the powerful people in Jiankang.
However, this morning, on the border between the Southern Dynasty and the Northern Wei Dynasty, there was a scene that the border troops on both sides had never seen before.
Beacon fires continued to light up, and carrier pigeons and falcons continued to fly from various fortresses. These carrier pigeons and falcons, which were usually very important to the border army, were like several pigeon sheds flying together today. The entire border between the Southern Dynasty and the Northern Wei Dynasty Above, these birds are just like migrating swallows, giving people the feeling of being densely packed.
The fireworks flags of the Southern Dynasty Frontier Army and the Northern Wei Frontier Army were naturally secret languages, and they were different from each other. Even if the two sides met, they might not be able to know what the other party wanted to convey. However, today, the camps of both sides have appeared separately. People who know these secret words.
Some are outsiders outside the camp, and some are originally lurking in the opponent's army.
The border between the Southern Dynasty and the Northern Wei Dynasty, which originally delayed the most time, has now become the area where transmission is most rapid.
Shortly after the Shangqiu War broke out last night, the entire Southern Dynasty and Northern Wei militaries quickly learned that the two sides fighting were Mo Zong and He Bayue, but they had no way of knowing the outcome of this battle.
Today, the military forces of the Southern Dynasty and the Northern Wei Dynasty already know that the real winner is He Batayue, and according to the exact military information, He Batayue will completely replace Shen Yue and Mo Zong and become the most terrifying enemy in the world. .
At the same time, they also learned that the Demon Sect wanted to meet a young man named Wang Pingyang in Jiankang City.
Lines of beacon smoke continued to burn across the vast land. On a hill not far from a certain fortress, Ni Yunshan silently watched the beacon smoke flags.
She is one of the practitioners with the highest authority among the frontier troops. She even knows the flight routes of some carrier pigeons and falcons very clearly, so she has even received enough information before this.
According to this information, Demon Sect's life should be in danger.
She didn't know why the Demon Sect had to see Wang Pingyang at this time, but she knew it must have a very important meaning.
She had not yet thought about her course of action, but since that was the case, she felt that she could try to get in touch with Tie Cejun, and she should be able to stay at the border and wait for the arrival of Mo Zong or Wang Pingyang.
In another fortress not far from her current location, Lin Wangbei stood outside a tent. Beside him were Chen Jinru and several high-ranking generals of the border army.
After learning the result of the battle in Shangqiu last night, Lin Wangbei had indescribable pain in his eyes.
All the generals of the frontier army here did not care much about Shen Nian's death. In fact, for all of them, the outcome of the battle between Mo Zong and He Bayue was what they needed to care about.
Apart from the fact that he is Shen Yue's son, this young man Shen Nian seems to be an accessory victim in this battle, just like a vase accidentally broken during a fierce battle between two people.
The sense of existence at this moment really seems like this.
And most people don't have much sympathy for this young man. Shen Yue was once the pillar of the south and respected by all the people in the southern dynasty. But with the end of the Guanlong War and the reveal of his identity, at least The vast majority of practitioners and people in the military have completely changed their perception of him. Of course, these people have an even less favorable impression of Shen Nian who stays in the human world and wants to take over his position.
But it's different for him.
He happened to rescue Shen Nian at sea, and then he got along with the young man for a short time.
Regardless of the identities of both parties, in his eyes, Shen Nian is just a lost young man. He is not evil. On the contrary, he thinks Shen Nian is very kind.
He always felt that if Shen Nian followed him back to the Southern Dynasty, he would become like Lin Yi and the young men of Tie Cejun, and he would become responsible and a practitioner that would be very useful to the world.
He may not take the path Shen Yue wants him to take at all.
Because he did not have the growth experience of those people, the path he took was different.
Just like the path Lin Yi took, it was also different from the path he grew up on.
A person's growth has a lot to do with his environment and the people around him.
No young person is immune to mistakes.
Of course Shen Nian would make mistakes.
It's just that most young people have the opportunity to change things after making mistakes, but Shen Nian has no chance to change things again.
Listening to the outcome of this battle, he was even more certain that Chen Ziyun's judgment was correct.
They were unable to force Shen Nian to stay from He Bayue's hands that day.
But the more he felt like this, he still felt extremely sad when he thought of this young man who had an amazing life experience but seemed extremely confused, weak, and even cowardly at sea.
This kind of sadness is the same as when he took charge of the army and lost the young people around him in the army.
Heartache is not real physical pain, sometimes it is more uncomfortable than physical pain.
But as the morning sun continued to shine, when the sun became more and more intense and fell on his body, Lin Wangbei felt some real pain.
He was shocked to find that an inexplicable energy quietly emerged from his body.
This energy is like ice frozen in thin ice, but it is melted by the sun and then released.
This aura made him feel a little familiar, it was Shen Nian's aura.
He felt some pinprick-like pain on the back of his right hand.
It was as if the sunlight had condensed into tiny fire needles that were constantly pricking the back of his hand. He felt that the energy had turned into a real air current, flowing towards the back of his hand.
He was even more shocked. He raised his hand and saw that there were some black textures on the back of his hand, just like the marks left after the skin was burned.
These textures are like the runes carved on the magic weapon, and they seem to be constantly absorbing some vitality.
Lin Wangbei's breathing paused a little.
He looked at these rune-like black textures on the back of his hand as if they had formed a mysterious catalog.
This catalog is only the size of a few fingerprints, but the texture it consists of is very complex.
With his cultivation level, he couldn't understand what this meant at this time.
But at this time, his heartache was even worse.
Because he vaguely guessed that this was something Shen Nian secretly left for him.
The young man trusted He Buyue at the time and felt that He Buyue could help him better face the world after he landed ashore, but the young man also trusted him.
If this young man had not suffered an accident, perhaps the energy left in his body would not have appeared.
Only when he dies, when some of his vitality disappears, will the energy in his body naturally appear.
