Four days later, the entire Qinggu Kingdom celebrated with joy.
The emperor issued an order to grant amnesty to the whole world.
Tax exemptions and reductions, labor service returned home, and rewards to the armed forces.
In fact, in the past few days, people across the country had quietly felt the imperial court's big move.
The streets of each city were cleaned cleanly, and the city lords of each city rushed to the imperial city to participate in tomorrow's heaven-sacrifice ceremony... And today, envoys from various countries also arrived one after another.
On Qinggu Kingdom's Yingbin Avenue, the red carpet is spread out for ten miles. This carpet is not a mortal thing. It is sewn by the Imperial Sewing Master himself. Although it does not have any defensive magic circle, it can remove dirt. No matter how many people step on it, it will still look beautiful.
Brand new as new.
There was an endless stream of ceremonial chariots and carriages, gleaming with golden light and gorgeous, which made the people of the imperial city who were used to the big world feel surprised.
Zun Yan's imperial court, led by the fourth prince himself, arrived in a mighty manner. They were received by the Qinggu Kingdom's envoys. Along the way, they were greeted with rituals and music, and they were taken to the State Guesthouse to stay.
Immediately afterwards, Yu Tang Imperial Court.
Lonely Jade Imperial Court!
Yanmo Imperial Court!
…
There are a dozen imperial courts in the northern realm, almost all of them have arrived except for the Minglong Imperial Court, which lost its country some time ago.
The ministers were busy receiving the envoys, but His Highness the Third Prince of the Qinggu Kingdom led the commander of the Zijin Guards, the elders of the Tianyan Dean, the elders of the Central Command, the elders of the Military Aircraft Department, and more than a dozen important officials of the imperial court to travel ten miles away.
road to welcome the final arrival of the imperial court.
The mighty imperial court!
This is a giant in the northern realm, and the combined national power of a dozen other royal courts may barely be able to compete with it.
If it weren't for the ferocious monsters that brought harm to the world, the Northern Territory would have been unified by the Divine Power Imperial Court long ago.
"Everyone can see the gap between us by looking at the ceremonial guard at the Divine Power Imperial Court... When the time comes, you will understand why Bai Zhuoyue is more important than me, the crown prince. I can die, but he can't."
His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince, was a well-known figure in the Qinggu Kingdom in the middle stage of the Golden Core, but looking at the entire Northern Territory, he was very ordinary.
As for these golden elixir ministers, they are also the strongest assets that the Qinggu Kingdom can bring to the table.
An hour passed, and everyone began to become impatient. Finally, a vast and surging golden light filled the air in the distance, like the scorching sun coming down, dyeing the whole world into a dazzling golden color.
A group of overwhelming golden auspicious clouds slowly floated over. Looking up, there were more than 100 people standing above the auspicious clouds.
Golden elixir!
All are golden elixirs!
shocking.
Qing Xuanyun sighed with a grimace, and the other ministers had even colder expressions on their faces. Behind them, the nearly one hundred foundation-building ceremony guards looked even more shocked.
You must know that some of their honor guards were transferred back from the army, and some were borrowed from the nine major sects... Then they reluctantly formed the foundation honor guard in order to maintain their majesty in front of all countries.
But before the other party arrived, they directly sent out a hundred golden elixirs, which was frightening.
"Since we are on a mission to a foreign country, we cannot be loyal ministers of the imperial court. These golden elixirs should be just some idle work... there are just a hundred strong golden elixirs at random. How many strong ones should there be in the Divine Power Imperial Court?"
The elders of the Central Academy spoke solemnly.
"The Divine Power Imperial Court occupies half of the northern realm. Because of the Divine Power Cannon, the Fierce Demon Tribe tries its best to avoid confrontation with it. The pressure is all on small countries like us... The monks in their country will not go to the battlefield at all before the foundation building period.
, even after the foundation is established, there are only a few symbolic trials."
"And the young men of the Qinggu Kingdom, in the spiritual pulse stage, have to fight against fierce monsters. Just like this catastrophe of forty thousand monsters, they are still children and have to save a city. The gap is too big."
Dean Tianyan smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"I agree with what the third prince said. A giant green cannon and a Bai Zhuoyue are more precious than any golden elixir master... I can die to protect Bai Zhuoyue."
The military generalissimo is the gray-haired Huang Gongyi.
He has lived in the army all his life, and has seen sacrifice and blood all his life. The ancient cannon is an artifact of the country that has benefited all generations. He came back specially this time to see the authenticity of this cannon.
"Haha, Marshal Huang has such a profound realization. If Bai Zhuoyue wants to marry your precious granddaughter, will you be willing to get married?"
At this time, an elder made a joke.
"Nonsense, Marshal Huang loves his granddaughter the most, and Bai Zhuoyue is nothing but a good-for-nothing bastard except for possessing the cursed seal of the ancient giant cannon. How could she marry such a thing?"
Another person shook his head.
"Marry, let alone marry, you can be a concubine or a maid... To you, the cruelty of war is just a pale number of sacrificing 10,000 people today and a million people tomorrow. To me,
Those are living lives, one family after another... If you sacrifice one granddaughter, you can buy back the lives of millions of soldiers, this business is a sure profit."
Huang Gongyi looked at the golden elixir guard of honor that was gradually approaching, and he sighed for a while.
How many good young people who should have entered the golden elixir, he saw with his own eyes being torn to pieces by ferocious monsters, but he was unable to do anything... Without completely solving the survival problem of the soldiers at the bottom, the Qinggu Kingdom's peak combat power will never have a chance to grow.
The ancient cannon is the sharp sword to solve the vicious circle.
"The emperor has already made arrangements for Bai Zhuoyue's marriage. The granddaughter of Marshal Huang, our young master of Qinggu Holy Land, does not like her."
Jing Qingsu, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke, and everyone smiled in agreement.
During this period, Bai Zhuoyue treated the Purple Gold Guards like dogs, and even had ten strong foundation-building guards guarding him. He even threatened to replace this useless leader. Everyone saw Jing Qingsu's suffocation, but they couldn't help it.
There is nothing you can do.
"Qing Xuanyun, you have become more capable. You are the first one in the Qinggu Kingdom in hundreds of years to be able to steal the curse seal of my Divine Power Imperial Court."
The golden clouds were overwhelming, and the middle-aged man at the front of the crowd looked down at the ancient guard of honor with contempt on his face.
The other golden elixir followers also had sneers on their faces.
The honor guard formed during the foundation building period of the Qinggu Kingdom was so shabby that it gave a toothache.
"Prince Mo, you are joking... As for the Qinggu Cannon, it's just a weapon refiner in our country who accidentally obtained the curse seal. How dare you steal it, don't dare, don't dare!"
Qing Xuanyun took a step forward and quickly clasped his fists.
"Hmph, regardless of whether it was stolen or not, a weapon refiner from our Divine Power Holy Land came to us and used a magic spell to destroy the curse seal. How long can your Qinggu Kingdom be so arrogant? How dare you hold a ceremony to worship the heavens and tell everyone
Country, it’s simply ridiculous.”
Prince Mo flicked his sleeves, clearly angry.
Even if it is a toy in the hands of a child, it would make me feel uncomfortable if there is a second identical toy, let alone the huge Shenwei Imperial Court.
This kind of uniqueness cannot be lost by Shenwei Imperial Court.
Since the secret agent passed the information back to the Divine Power Imperial Court, the whole country has been shaken. No less than ten meetings have been held with the participation of the Great Emperor. The Divine Power Holy Land has been even more furious. If it weren't for the fierce demon clan's army approaching, eyeing with eagerness, the Divine Power Imperial Court would have almost declared war.
.
Although it is difficult for geniuses to grow up in the Qinggu Kingdom, as long as the monks who survive are all first-class strong men.
If a war breaks out, the Shenwei Imperial Court will still be under a lot of pressure in terms of high-end combat power. After all, the monks of the Qing Ancient Kingdom are notoriously desperate, and they cannot afford to fight this battle.
Therefore, for this memorial ceremony, the emperor's younger brother, Prince Mo, led a delegation. Among the delegation, there were three elders from the Divine Power Holy Land.
They have two purposes.
First, destroy the cannon curse seal.
If the cursed seal fails to be destroyed, then no matter what, bring the boy who made the cannonball back to the Qinggu Kingdom, even the consort can do it.
Of course, not only the Shenwei Imperial Court, but other countries also have this purpose.
"Go away, these losers are not worthy of welcoming us!"
It is diplomatic etiquette to step down from the red carpet and put down the magic weapon.
But instead of being able to get down from the golden cloud, Prince Mo waved his sleeves menacingly. Immediately, a strong and cold wind surged out, and the members of the foundation honor guard were suddenly blown ten meters away.
Each abutment vibrated, and blood spurted from the mouth.
"Haha, a small country like this is indeed rich in waste."
Behind Prince Mo, those golden elixirs from the Qinggu Kingdom laughed loudly, with only strong sarcasm in their eyes.
Jing Qingsu was furious and was about to step forward to argue, but was patted on the shoulder by the Third Prince.
He turned his head, and the prince shook his head helplessly.
"he……"
Jing Qingsu gritted his teeth.
"Tolerate!"
The prince shook his head and took the lead, walking under the menacing golden clouds. His face was covered with frost and he didn't know what he was thinking.
"A weak country has no diplomacy. Let's endure it for a hundred years. The situation will turn and eventually we will ride on the golden cloud to humiliate the Divine Power Kingdom."
Huang Guangyi also patted Jing Qingsu on the shoulder.
Having been used to seeing life and death, I have an indescribable calmness.
In less than a minute, behind these big figures, those seriously injured foundation-building pillars silently formed a formation again, meticulously upholding the majesty of ancient times.
They were silent, but in everyone's heart, there was a flame of forbearance burning.
The rise of the Qinggu Kingdom takes time.
The day of being proud and proud is not far away.
"Eh? What a bunch of despicable reptiles!"
Prince Mo turned his head and suddenly saw the stubborn honor guard. He snorted, but he did not take action again, which seemed stingy.
But in the honor guard of the Divine Power Imperial Court, some powerful Jindan men were slightly disturbed.
If he were placed in the Imperial Court of Shenwei and was humiliated like this, he would have no choice but to scream mindlessly or beg for mercy and flee.
The Qinggu Kingdom is worthy of being a country that has been fighting ferocious monsters all year round. Although the eyes of those insignificant foundation-building monks were burning with angry flames, they all clenched their fists forbearingly and did not shout. Instead, they used the etiquette of silence to silently
Fight back and pick up the last bit of dignity.
This kind of place is like a wolf's den.
Although the environment is harsh, they still have a way to survive.
A few minutes later, still seven miles away from the imperial city gate...the terrifying golden cloud suddenly stopped.
The third prince and others were stunned.
"Qing Xuanyun, I heard that your so-called Qinggu cannon can blast a distance of 4 miles, so you are clamoring to surpass my Divine Power Imperial Court?"
Prince Mo waved his hand, and two golden elixir masters floated down from the golden clouds.
"The distance of 4 miles is the level of the Divine Land 150 years ago... Nowadays, our Shenwei cannon can blast out 7 miles. This place is exactly seven miles away from the gate of your imperial city... Let you know the difference.
Bar."
After Prince Mo finished speaking, the strong man behind him flicked his sleeves, and a huge cannon as tall as a man came down with a crash, shaking the earth with cracks.
"Prince Mo, you can't do it. The gate of the imperial city represents the majesty of the Qinggu Kingdom. You must not..."
"Boom!"
The third prince frowned and hurriedly stepped forward to explain, but before he could finish his sentence, a deafening sound of cannon fell, and the powerful air waves probably exploded the nearby trees and boulders.
A terrifying blast of gunpowder smoke tore the sky apart, and red flames swept across dozens of miles, shaking the earth and shaking the world, as if the end of the world was coming.
Seven miles away, a raging fire burst into the sky, illuminating the entire imperial city red.
At this moment, the chaos in the imperial city seemed to be transmitted here.
…
"Hahaha... Hahaha... Is this the imperial city of the Qinggu Kingdom? The city gate is too brittle, just like tissue paper, good for wiping your butt!"
"I think bombing the city gate is too advantageous for them. We should bomb the imperial court instead."
"Keep a low profile. Qinggu Country is a friendly neighbor after all, and we are a friendly mission participating in the Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony."
The smoke fell, and within the Shenwei Kingdom's mission, each strong man was arrogant and domineering, and they laughed sharply one after another. In their hearts, the majestic Qinggu Kingdom was like a back garden that was harmed at will, and they could take out their meat utensils and urinate.
Bang!
Qing Xuanyun squeezed hard with his palm, and the ground beneath his feet exploded.
At the same time, murderous intent descended one after another, like the roar of a million troops, and the pungent smell of blood rushed into the nostrils of the Jindan envoys.
In a daze, they seemed to be on a cruel battlefield, with broken limbs and seas of blood everywhere.
Some Jindan realms were stunned and even a little panicked.
"Qing Xuanyun, do you want to declare war? On your border, our Divine Power Imperial Court has placed 4,000 Divine Power Cannons, as well as 21 Divine Power Cannons that can snipe the Foundation Establishment Realm... If you take the initiative to provoke a war
, the entire Northern Territory will blame you, Qinggu Kingdom... When Qinggu is isolated, you can't blame me for being unkind."
Prince Mo laughed mockingly, then looked like a victim, making everyone in Qinggu Kingdom tremble with anger.
"Prince, let's fight."
At this time, a general in the military stood up. Sun Yuanze and Hu Nanyang were equally famous and competed with each other, but they were always inferior to the latter. After the latter resigned from the post of general, Sun Yuanze took his place.
Now Sun Yuanze is the second-largest figure in the military, a strong man in the golden elixir.
Hearing this, the pupils of those foundation building pillars were scarlet, their palms trembled, and the war guns in the storage bags trembled slightly. The military orders were like mountains, and they were fearless. They could go through fire and water, and be shattered into pieces.
Even if the opponent is a strong person with golden elixir.
"Qing Xuanyun, people are talking, why are dogs barking? Qing Gu Imperial Court, can't even tie up the dogs?"
Prince Mo made a sneer with a cold face.
He has a million confidences and knows that Qinggu Country will not declare war.
Qinggu didn't dare.
"Sun Yuanze, apologize to Prince Mo!"
After pondering for a long time, Qing Xuanyun took a deep breath and said coldly. As soon as these words fell, a layer of frost quietly formed on the ground.
Buzz!
The pupils of the foundation-building sergeants in the honor guard were all red, and their plasma wanted to burst out.
Why!
We are bullied to the doorstep and cannot fight back, so why should we apologize?
"Prince!"
Sun Yuanze's whole body was shaking violently, his eyes were about to burst, and his face was pale.
"Old man Huang Gongyi, Sun Yuanze is my favorite general. The young man is ignorant, and I will apologize for him... I hope Lord Mo will be more generous and don't get angry."
At this time, Huang Gongyi stepped forward and gave him a solemn gift. Although he did not kneel down, it was extremely humiliating given his status.
"For the sake of Marshal Huang, I will spare this dog's life... Humph!"
Prince Mo has made enough trouble, and he doesn't dare to go too far. It won't look good if he draws the emperor out.
"marshal!"
Jin Yun took off, and everyone followed behind with gritted teeth. Sun Yuanze's eyes were red, and he looked at the marshal whom he respected the most unwillingly.
"Weak countries have no diplomacy. We need time and rise, rather than being hot-headed... What will happen to the billions of people in the country if we start a war with the Divine Power Country? Do you want to see the lives of all people in ruins? I also want to kill them, and at worst I will die.
But we are soldiers, and our duty is to protect, not to kill."
"The way to protect is to draw a sword or kneel down... In this regard, you are not as good as Hu Nanyang."
Huang Gongyi shook his head and looked calm, as if a dead pig was not afraid of boiling water.
"marshal!"
Behind him, everyone could only remain silent.
For some people, kneeling down is ten thousand times more difficult than drawing a sword.
