The East China Sea is vast and boundless as far as the eye can see. Sometimes there are rough waves, sometimes tall ships break through the waves, countless deep-sea monsters shuttle under the blue waves, and countless islands are dotted on the sea.
More than 3,000 miles east from Qinglan City, passing through the turbulent Sea of Death, more than a hundred islands of various sizes stand like stars. The islands are filled with fairy spirit, the sky is filled with rays of light, and the people walking back and forth are all walking like dragons and tigers.
, cultivation is profound, men, women, old and young all talk about the way of cultivation, even the kid with a yellow mouth is waving a wooden sword and beating himself in a decent way.
This is the Penglai Fairyland. It is said that there is a fairyland in the world, and Penglai is the place where enlightenment can be achieved.
The largest island in the Fairy Kingdom is Honshu Island, which is located in the middle. Although it is the largest island in the Fairy Kingdom, it only covers the same area as the three imperial capitals. There are Taoist temples, palaces, restaurants, and shops on the island, and the most impressive one is
It is the huge red palace with towering green hills, high sky rising above, flying pavilions flowing with pills, and no ground below. It is the Penglai Shrine.
At this time, on the top of the magnificent main hall of the shrine, there was a figure lying leisurely on the bright red tiles. He was dressed in a white robe and had blue hair. He had his legs crossed and a cup in his mouth.
A grass stalk, the sunshine of the fairy island shining on his body, he felt indescribably contented.
"Lord Baili, we'd better go down, otherwise Lord Sikong will see you, and you'll have to say that you don't look like a ten-year-old at all."
Under the eaves, a maid with a bun in her hair was struggling to raise her head and shout to the blue-haired man on the roof. Her words revealed that this man's identity was actually the highest authority representative of the Penglai Immortal Kingdom and one of the Ten Penglai Men.
one.
The blue-haired man's closed eyes moved slightly, then he turned over and continued his beautiful afternoon sunbathing time, pretending that he didn't hear the maid's words at all.
"Ouch."
But the pain that suddenly came from his ears forced him, who was pretending to sleep, to pull him up. He grinned and opened his eyes, only to find a bright-looking woman in a yellow skirt tugging at his ears.
"I asked you why you were gone for most of the day, and you were hiding here and being lazy. You still pretended to be asleep when Xiaomomomaru called you. Do you have any sense of being a ten man?"
The woman raised her eyes to scold the blue-haired man, while Lord Baili, who held the highest position of power, pulled his head in front of the woman, not even daring to express his anger.
"Sure enough, the only one who can cure Master Baili is Master Shen. Even if Master Sikong comes, Master Shen may not be able to cure him."
A young man in a short shirt looked at the one-sided destruction of the roof and said to the ball-headed maid with a smile.
"That's for sure. You must know that Master Baili agreed to join the ranks of the ten men, and it was also because of Master Shen. However, Master Baili was too lazy. Such a big thing happened to Cangyun Empire this time
, Master Sikong and Master Katori have already turned into a mess over there, and he is still sleeping here, no wonder Master Shen wants to teach him a lesson, hehe."
The maid who was called Xiao Momomaru put her hands on her hips and looked at the master who was having his ears pulled on the roof. She didn't seem to feel bad at all. However, she was the only maid among the ten who could have such a status. Compared to other adults, it would not be possible at all.
Without even thinking about it, the boy in a short shirt beside him looked at the angry girl in front of him and felt envious in his heart.
"Bai Ru, please spare me. I'm not good at those national affairs. Just let Sikong and the others take care of it."
Rubbing his red ears, Baili murmured in a low voice. From the corner of his eyes, he secretly glanced at the woman next to him, fearing that the tigress would attack if she disagreed with her again.
"Normally, you can just ignore it. Now that there is such a big mess in Cangyun Empire, it is still unclear whether the talks next month can be carried out. Sikong's bad temper has already shouted that he will start a war directly, and you are still sleeping here. , follow me to the council hall quickly, you are now one of the ten men, not the casual cultivator before, your decision is related to the future of the people of the entire Penglai Immortal Kingdom, let me say how you are good."
Seeing Baili's lazy look, Shen Bairu became very angry. He obviously had the ability to transcend the tribulation realm at a young age and was considered the number one genius in Penglai, but why couldn't he change his behavior? As for his problem, I had to withstand a lot of pressure when I strongly recommended him to take the position of ten lao. This guy is good, he spends three days fishing and two days drying nets, and now he doesn't even participate in the ten lao discussions.
Just when Shen Bairu was dragging Baili towards the meeting hall, a red-haired man was furious. There were seven other people sitting on the huge round table, but no one dared to speak in the face of the man's rage.
"The Cangyun Empire has never thought about peaceful dialogue with us. That old guy Huangfu Yi just used us as a tool to enhance his prestige. He paralyzed us through so-called peace talks and brought out a puppet prime minister who made many promises to us on the surface. , waiting until the last moment to decisively destroy this chess piece, burning our concessions over the years, and at the same time suppressing the powerful lord of Qinglan City who guards the border, is really a good plan."
The red-haired man kept banging his fists on the round table in front of him, making loud noises. The woman next to him with an extremely voluptuous figure and charming face couldn't stand it anymore, so he persuaded her, "Sikong, why do you need to do this?" Angry, the Huangfu family has always done one thing in front of others and another behind their backs. This is something we have known for a long time. If Shen Bairu hadn't worked hard to facilitate the talks, we would never have sat down with the people of the Cangyun Empire to talk about these meaningless things. nonsense."
"Katori, are you saying this to push the Immortal Kingdom into war? We have discussed it many times. Invasion and killing will not bring us any benefits. Our Immortal Kingdom suppresses Cangyun in terms of the strength of the monks. Empire, but both the resource reserves and the population are far from enough. If there is a war, the people of the fairy kingdom will suffer."
An old man with a celestial spirit did not agree with what the woman said. He frowned and retorted. The two middle-aged men beside him also nodded in agreement.
Among the eight people present, they are obviously divided into two factions. The red-haired man and the charming woman are the typical militant faction, while the old man and the men on his left and right are the ones supporting the peace talks.
"Huh, Taoist Zuoqiu, Murong Bin, Zhongsun Huan, have you been brainwashed by Baili and Shen Bairu? Our Penglai land area is limited, and with millions of years of reproduction, the population has long exceeded The limit of what can be afforded, and the Cangyun Empire not only has a vast territory, but also rich resources. The so-called capable people live in it, and that land should have belonged to us long ago. Isn't this for the sake of better blessings for the people of the Immortal Kingdom? Or have the three of you lived too many comfortable lives these past few years and started to be greedy for life and afraid of death?"
The charming woman didn't give in at all, she slapped her beautiful hand on the round table, stared at the old man and said.
"Squeak"
Just as the two sides were arguing, the door of the parliament hall was pushed open. A confused Baili looked at the quarrel in front of him, scratched the blue hair on his head that was as messy as a chicken coop, and said awkwardly
