At this time, Tu Hu no longer had the impressive majesty nor the approachable temperament.
When you look at him, sometimes you feel that it is a collection of contradictions, sometimes you feel that he does not exist, and sometimes it is as natural and natural as possible.
He seems to be "changing" all the time.
But everyone present understood that at this moment, Tu Hu could already be called a true king.
What's more, he didn't become enlightened just today.
Because there was no vision of enlightenment just now, and because a True Lord who had just attained enlightenment, it was difficult to say that he had the possibility of designing the Phantom Lord, and he clearly succeeded!
However, before today, Lord Tu Hu of Minhe Temple had conflicting bloodlines, identities, and positions. He had too many troubles and provoked too many people in the Mu Kingdom...
His cultivation has always been that of a real person in this world.
Even Jin Gonghao, who was born in the Jin family and has first-class vision and information channels, has never heard of a second Tu Hu in the world.
, I have never heard that there can be such a step of harmony between God and man.
This scene in front of me can connect too many things together.
He was first shocked, then angry, and his emotions fluctuated. His hands tightened and loosened, and finally he just murmured: "That's it."
I see……
At this time, everything in the Canglang Arena had become quiet. I don’t know whether it was suppressed or isolated, no one cared. Of course those duels that were interrupted would not continue. And today's shock is probably just something to talk about after dinner tomorrow.
At this time, Qingya Terrace fell into another kind of silence.
The dark curtain of the sky has dispersed, and the sky is shining brilliantly.
Although the Jiawu Terrace was in a state of disrepair, the gloom had finally been cleared away and it became clear.
Dou Zhao looked expressionlessly at the Yan Dao strongman in front of him who had just suppressed the Phantom Lord, and silently stretched out his hand.
Tu Hu smiled, turned Tian Xiao upside down, and returned it to Dou Zhao's palm: "This is indeed a knife worthy of you."!
Dou Zhao didn't speak because he thought it was nonsense. Jiang Wang held his long sword, looked at Tu Hu calmly, and just asked: "Why me?" 15
Frankly speaking, if I were not in the Mu Kingdom today, if I were not in the imperial court, or if I was not on an envoy on behalf of the Qi State, I would be a wise man.
Jiang Wang couldn't say anything.
He has experienced too much and seen too much.
In today's situation, it's hard for him not to think about it - is Tu Hu using him to make a difference? Did Bian Huang's encounter with the Demon Demon also come from Tu Hu's design?
It is not uncommon for those powerful men who are superior to others to casually take the world as their control and the common people as their sons. 2
For the sake of greater ideals and greater causes, some sacrifices will always be forgiven. 2
Although Jiang Wang disagrees, he will only bury everything deep in his heart, and will only ask this question one day when he has enough strength to defend his own principles with a sword.
But today he is the envoy of Da Qi, so he must not be silent.
Because he was an envoy with integrity and represented the majesty of a country.
He can be unsociable and focus on cultivation, because Qi Ting has no intention of letting him handle diplomatic relations. He is just here to listen and take a look.
But he must protect the state, and he will not hesitate to press his sword for this purpose, and the envoys must not be insulted lightly!
He was not questioning Tu Hu at this moment.
Instead, the Daqi Empire is asking - What gave you the courage to take risks with me, the Daqi envoy?
"Gu! Helian Yunyun!"
Helian Yunyun stood up at this moment, separated the distance between the stands and the martial arts platform, touched his heart with one hand, and bowed to Jiang Wang: "As a member of the Damu royal family, I would like to apologize to Marquis Wu'an. Marquis Wu'an is a guest from afar. , also represents Da Qi, and is a figure I have always admired! No matter what the reason is, you should not be allowed to be involved in danger in the Mu Kingdom, and even in the High Court! This brings shame to this palace. What happened today, I will definitely give you an explanation!"
She said she wanted to give an explanation, but actually she wanted to give an explanation. Jiang Wang, the gangster, asked Tu Hu, a strong man of Yan Dao, for an explanation.
Tu Hu immediately said: "I think I can explain this matter clearly.
He doesn't have the arrogance of being a great person, and he can be said to be very gentle.
At this time, he had a wry smile on his face and said in a frank manner: "The history of the struggle between the human and demon clans has continued from ancient times to the present. As the leader of the demon clan on the other side of the line of life and death, the Phantom Lord has The prying eyes of the grassland have never stopped. Today is a good opportunity for him. I believe he has been preparing for this day for a long time. It is impossible for him to come to the royal court in person, so he needs a bridge, and you, Marquis of Wu'an, are his One of the choices." 1
"For today's matter, I didn't choose you, but Lord Huanmo chose you. To answer your question, why you?' I think there are many reasons from the perspective of Lord Huanmo. For example, you are very powerful. , has enough carrying capacity to allow his Demonic Demon Skull to take shape quickly. For example, he encountered you in the wilderness not long ago, and he just had the opportunity to plant a method. For example, your extraordinary identity will prevent you from being subjected to the most thorough inspection so as to conceal his movements to the greatest extent."
"Controlled by me. Before Phantom Lord took action, I didn't know how he would ultimately choose to enter today's situation. Of course, I don't deny that after meeting you in the wilderness that day, I had some guesses, but at that time No definite clues were found. Moreover, my confrontation with Phantom Lord at that time was to lure him into the situation. The situation was also very dangerous at that time, so I didn’t have time to investigate in detail, so I had to let you leave first.”
"Later, when I was sitting in charge of Minhe Temple in Guangwen Yechuxiwu Hall, I learned that you met another me in Bianhuang, so I chatted with you for a long time. The two me at that time were not connected. , I, who is sitting in the Minhe Temple, have actually been observing you, trying to find out the traces of Demon Lord Huan. Both of me are wary of Demon Lord Huan's methods, but unfortunately, neither of me is on you. Find the traces. As a demon king who achieved enlightenment with the "Flick of Finger Life and Destruction of Illusory Demons", his methods have always been unpredictable and secretive."
Jiang Wang listened to this quietly and said: "The Huanmo Lord's methods are indeed unpredictable, and Lord Tu came in time today."
Tu Hu pondered for a moment and then said: "You must still have an impression of the female demon you saw just now? You had already seen her when you were in Bianhuang, and you had fought with her. She is a woman from the Wanyan family. Wanyan Qingping was also a famous divine genius back then.
At the same time, it has already been controlled by foreign forces. I won’t say which force controls it.”
"After I informed the head of the Wanyan family, I prepared a method for her. I also arranged for her to die in the wilderness, and her spirit was captured by the Phantom Lord, and she became a demon. This also became an important reason for my timely appearance today."
Demon Demon is almost a symbolic representative of Phantom Demon Lord, but Tu Hu was able to use it to successfully lay out his methods. The difficulty and hard work involved cannot be described in just a few words.
Tu Ku used Wanyan Qingping as a guide and followed the clues to catch a series of big fish. After using up the value of her life, he sent Wanyan Qingping to the wilderness, designed the Demon Lord, and used the value of her death... He didn't need to explain all of this clearly.
Now he just wants to explain to Jiang Wang why he came so timely.
Jiang Wang has more than just an impression of Wanyan Qingping? In that encounter six hundred miles away from the border, Wanyan Qingping was the demon who put the greatest pressure on him. At that time, he was already prepared to fight tooth and nail, and the first person he planned to fight for was this woman. The first person he planned to fight for was this woman.
He was amazed by Tu Hu's ability and means.
But these were not enough to convince him.
"Your country's protection of the Canglang Arena was also prompt." Jiang Wang said.
Naturally, he was referring to the three strong men who had sealed off the Canglang Arena immediately, but had not really shown up until now.
If Tu Hu was not prepared in advance and had no idea when the Phantom Lord was going to launch his attack, he would not believe it.
You came so timely, and the arrangements were so targeted. At the end, you said you didn't know anything, it was all a coincidence. Who can believe this?
If we say that the day before yesterday at Minhe Temple, Jiang Wang's attitude towards Tu Hu was one of gratitude mixed with restraint and caution. So after today's encounter, his attitude has obviously become closed off.
Tu Hu, who is in harmony with man and spirit, feels this deeply.
He sighed softly, and suddenly a voice came into Jiang Wang's heart:
I know that it is difficult to dispel Marquis Wu An's doubts today, and I can understand that it would be the same for anyone. So I'm going to tell you a secret...about my secret magical power that will surely dispel your doubts. But if this matter comes out of my mouth, it will not reach your ears. Are you willing to listen? "
Jiang Wang subconsciously was about to nod in agreement, but his thoughts suddenly blurred, and the black and white magical seed in Wufuhai also seemed to be vaguely beating.
Upon closer inspection, there was no movement.
But he had a vague feeling...this might be a wrong choice.
Jiang Wang, Jiang Wang, what virtue and ability do you have to listen to the secret magical powers of a True Lord of Yan Dao?
What qualifications do you have to listen, and what ability do you have to keep such a secret?
He immediately cut off his thoughts and said: "I heard that gentlemen in ancient times would tell others everything. Jiang is not a person who likes to get to the bottom of things. He just narrowly encountered disaster.
A reasonable explanation is needed. If Mr. Tu feels that he can't explain clearly, or that I don't deserve an explanation, you can say nothing. If Mr. Tu thinks he can explain it clearly, he might as well explain it openly and honestly at once, and it is not good for me to listen to it alone. Just now, the Phantom Lord took action across the border, and the danger involved not only me, but Brother Dou, and all of you who were here to watch the battle.
It is an unreasonable disaster. "
"Why is it that Mr. Tu has something to say? Is it inconvenient for me to listen? But Mr. Dou really wants to hear an explanation." Dou Zhao said, "It's business for you to hunt demons. Hunting demons until you put the demon king into your It is your freedom to come to the royal court. But you ignore the safety of envoys from other countries. On behalf of the Chu State, I am puzzled by this. I wonder what this behavior is?"
There is a word called "reasonable and confident". Because they possess the truth, Jiang Wang and Dou Zhao, who are in the presence of gods, can ask Tu Huchui for explanations in a serious manner.
Of course, the prerequisite for being confident is to have a reasonable environment.
Qi Chu behind Jiang Wang and Dou Zhao is the reason why they can speak loudly.
At this moment, the attitudes of Jiang Wang and Dou Zhao were somewhat coercive. Especially Jiang Wang's revelation of Tu Hu's secret transmission undoubtedly put him in an embarrassing situation.
But Tu Hu didn't show any annoyance and just said calmly: "Then I'll explain it in detail."
"It has been a hundred years since I used Yan Qingping to set up this game. During these nearly a hundred years, I have gone deep into the wilderness to hunt demons many times, attracting the attention of the Phantom Lord and exerting influence on him. The me who is truly cultivated, Under the gaze of the Phantom Lord, we are often close to death. It is even more difficult to do something. We can only be subtle and hope that a drop of water can penetrate the stone. A hundred years of game, today is the official closing of the net."
"In today's round, the ideal result was to drag the Phantom Demon Lord from the Tomb of the Ten Thousand Worlds and kill him on the spot, but it failed to be achieved. He finally broke free, and I only achieved the second-best goal."
He stretched out his palms to let Jiang Wang and Dou Zhao clearly see the colorful and constantly changing human faces in his palms: "This is the mask of the Phantom Lord. As far as I know, the Phantom Lord only has nine masks in total, which are the foundation of his cultivation. If this piece is peeled off, he will not be able to repair it without hundreds of years of hard work."
He looked at Jiang Wang and said slowly: "Marquis Wu An must also know what this means. So I really admire Yu Beidou. He has achieved similar things with his Dongzhen cultivation.
"Of course, when I say this, I don't want you to recognize the risks and sacrifices. You are just guests from afar, and you should only be respected and honored, but have no obligation to contribute anything to my layout. To say the least, you two are the pillars of the country. , a rare talent in the world, and can be regarded as the future of the human race. I believe that if I can inform you of this situation in advance,
You would also agree to take risks, but telling them later is cheating. Using deception to promote the development of a situation, regardless of the initial goal or the final result, is definitely not a friendly behavior for the parties involved. "
"So the first thing I want to say is - I didn't lie to you. It was not my plan to involve Marquis Wu'an. No matter how grand the reason, Mu Guo will never use envoys from friendly countries as bait. Especially today, in this high court."
"Marquis Wu'an, you might as well think about it, was your decision to go to the border wilderness influenced by anyone? Was there any guidance on the route you chose and the time you chose? Lord Huan Demon was setting up a trap against me at that time. He acted , is it something I can stop in the Dongzhen Realm?"
"I did use a special method and spent nearly a hundred years to mislead the Phantom Lord, making him regard today as the right time. But I am not sure where he will start. So my preparations are for today's time. , rather than a specific person or location. The reason why the blockade came so promptly is because at this time today, several adults have been on standby in the royal court."
He did not say what method he used or how he misled Huan Mojun, but Jiang Wang thought that it must be related to the "Hu Na Ba" that Huan Mo Jun had shouted angrily before.
Hu Naba is the wolf god who protects the Dharma. The word "Dharma protector" has a special meaning.
Under what circumstances might something go wrong with the Dharma Protector Wolf God, and could it be viewed as an opportunity by the Phantom Lord?
Jiang Wang restrained himself from thinking deeply.
Tu Hu took a deep look at Jiang Wang, and then said: "You can know the methods of the Phantom Demon King if you think about it, and they will never be discovered easily. I used a hundred years to lay out this situation, but the Phantom Demon Lord has been sitting on the line of life and death for more than a hundred years. . People are counted as tigers, and tigers are also counted as humans. Who can decide the outcome before the end?
We don’t know how many tricks he hid in the grassland and how many bridges he built, but Marquis Wu’an was by no means the only one he designed. In the recent period alone, his pursuit of me in the borderlands has affected many people, but among those people, not many can survive.
Until today, I wasn't entirely sure he would get involved, let alone how he would get involved. I did suspect that he might use Wu Anhou to do something, but I couldn't check it with great fanfare. Firstly, he would be frightened away, and secondly, Marquis Wu An might not agree.
This is true.
If Tu Hu had suddenly said that Jiang Wang might have been influenced by the Phantom Lord and asked him to let go of his mind and body and undergo an examination, he would never have agreed.
As an envoy of Qi State, how could he be completely defenseless against the true king of another country?
Tu Hu continued: "Today's commanding formation in the royal court has been activated. In addition to me, there are four Yandao strongmen on standby! If there is demonic energy in any corner of the royal court, there are Yandao strongmen who can stop it. Arriving in no time. This is how we prepared for today.
Therefore, no matter what happens in the Royal Court today, Marquis Wu'an's safety can be guaranteed. This is also the reason why I did not go further to examine Wu Anhou before. "
"In addition, Lord Huan Mo used Marquis Wu'an as a guide and used demonic energy as a pulling force to bring down the world to the Canglang Arena. I used Zhang Mo as a guide to pursue Lord Huan Mo, so I was able to arrive in time."
Tu Hu explained all the considerations, and the whole logic flowed down, and he could indeed explain it clearly.
With his status as the True Lord of Yan Dao, he took off the mask of the Phantom Lord today and completed this great event that was destined to shock the world. Being able to explain so seriously is already considered an excellent attitude.
And he added: "But it is said that the two of them are on a mission to the grassland. They are distinguished guests. They should have been enjoying the scenery of the grassland calmly, but they were accidentally disturbed by this.
This is undoubtedly the poor hospitality of our pastoral country. "
He put one hand on his chest and bowed his head sincerely: "Please allow me to apologize to the two ambassadors in the name of Minhe Temple and on behalf of the Mu Kingdom."
Jiang Wang and Dou Zhao immediately turned aside and refused to accept this gift.
How could the two Shenlin monks accept Yan Dao so carelessly? Tu Hu then turned to look at Helian Yunyun: "Does Your Highness have any records of the duel just now?"
Helian Yunyun nodded slightly.
"Please give me a copy later." Tu Hu said, then turned to Jiang Wang and Dou Zhao and said: "We grassland people don't like empty words. Since it's an apology, we can't make empty promises. It's just compensation for you two. I It still needs to be researched before giving it, so as to make it appropriate. Of course, the two geniuses are lacking in everything, but please don’t decline the etiquette of prairie people here.
Jiang Wang said nothing.
Neither did Dou Zhao.
Tu Hu's attitude was so sincere and he took care of everything inside and outside. Even if they still have some doubts in their hearts, they can't say anything anymore.
The person in front of him is, after all, the True Lord of Yan Dao, a being who stands at the pinnacle of the extraordinary. An ordinary person wouldn't even have the courage to speak in front of him.
Tu Hu shifted his gaze again and looked at the audience seriously:
Miss Huang, Young Master Zhongli, and Grand Master Yuhua are also our distinguished guests. They came to the arena to watch the battle for fun, but they were frightened for no reason. I have also prepared some thoughts and will send them to you later.
Please forgive me, three of you. "
Yuhua clasped her hands together and said: "The poor nun has never had any concerns about safety in the royal court. I just saw the demon Xuanhe, and it was just a show in the face of an animal. Master Tu has his heart."
Zhong Liyan remained motionless, pretending that his name had not been called just now.
How could he, a person who didn't even bother to watch the battle between Jiang Wang and Zhao, be affected by the devil at the scene of the duel between the two? It must be a misunderstanding! It makes sense that Tu Hu was in a trance and called the wrong name during the battle with Huan Mojun. "
Huang Relic blinked his eyes but didn't say anything. She won't be polite when receiving benefits that are due to her, but at the same time, she doesn't care too much about the so-called intentions as she is wealthy.
She has her own priorities.
She found that Jiang Wang, who was almost crushed by the Phantom Lord, had a different kind of beauty than usual.
The weak but strong eyes, the sluggish but still straight back and waist, and the hand that has lost its strength but still holds the sword tightly...
Looking through Buddhist scriptures, there is only one word to describe it, "I feel pity for you"!
She looked at Dou Zhao openly again and couldn't help but curl her lips. You were almost killed by Phantom Lord just now, and why are you still looking like you are fighting against the heaven and the earth? Those who didn’t know better thought you were the one who brought down the Phantom Lord... His style was too single!
So he went back to see Jiang Wang.
Helian Yunyun stood silently in the stands for a while. When Tu Hu explained clearly, Jiang Wang seemed to agree and gave a gentle salute: "Congratulations to Master Tu Hu. You can peel off the mask of the Phantom Demon Lord and make him It is a serious injury to the foundation. He has done great service to the country and to the human race. This time, it is more justifiable to inherit the position of the high priest of the Divine Crown.
Jiang Wang was stunned.
Dou Zhao was stunned.
The yellow relic was also shocked.
Speaking of which, the succession ceremony is about to begin, but the Muguo side has still not revealed the information about who will succeed the high priest of the Divine Crown.
There are many guesses from various parties, almost all of the golden-crowned high priests on the top of Qionglu Mountain, and even many legendary figures who are hermits. Unexpectedly, none of the guesses were correct.
I didn’t expect that person to be Tu Hu!
The last link in Tu Hu's century-old battle against the Phantom Lord has finally been completed.
Why did he choose to close the net today?
Because he is about to take over the position of high priest of the Divine Crown Preaching, his cultivation can no longer be hidden. Not only does he not hide, but he also wants to be bright and obvious.
Today, humans and gods merge into one, and they are crowned with the mask of the Phantom Lord. What kind of feat is this?
It depends on the experience of Tu Hu and the time he laid out and closed the network...
It seems that some clues can be vaguely glimpsed in the sudden changes in the battle between Scenery and Mu!
.
