"Brother, I don't come alone this time."
Shi Lei dropped his smile and said seriously.
"Oh?" Zhao Zhen raised his eyebrows. He naturally knew that after Shi Lei and Liu Zhen completed the establishment of Qingyun Gate, they went to Fengxue City to protect He Changkong. Now that Shi Lei said this, he naturally reacted, " General He is here too?"
"Yes, here too. Liu Zhen is accompanying General He outside now. The reason why we don't all come in is because we are coming in secret this time. General He said he has something to talk to you about."
Shi Lei said.
"Well, let's go then."
Zhao Zhen nodded immediately. He was very aware of He Changkong's current situation. On the surface, he seemed to be a king with a different surname and a very high status, but in fact he was isolated by the court. This meant that He Changkong could not come easily, but now he is here. , naturally Zhao Zhen knew that something big must be happening.
After briefly speaking to Han Yu and others, Zhao Zhen followed Shi Lei out of Guanlan Hall and went to an ordinary inn on the street.
As soon as he arrived here, Zhao Zhen noticed He Changkong's aura and looked directly at a corner on the first floor of the inn. There, he saw a man wearing a black robe and a bamboo hat lowering his head to drink. It was He Changkong. !
Around He Changkong, there were also several men in black robes scattered around, obviously all of them being He Changkong's bodyguards.
"Brother."
At this time, a person sitting behind He Changkong shouted, which made Zhao Zhen smile. Knowing that it was Liu Zhen, he naturally stepped forward quickly and gave Liu Zhen a bear hug.
Of course, he didn't talk too much to Liu Zhen. There was no need to talk between brothers, so he soon sat in front of He Changkong.
"General He."
Looking at the familiar face under the bamboo hat, Zhao Zhen shouted respectfully.
He Changkong nodded, with a smile on his face, "You have grown a lot, I am very happy."
Zhao Zhen showed a worried look, but he could see the fatigue under He Changkong's smile. It was a kind of mental and physical exhaustion that was extremely haggard. Naturally, he said seriously, "General He, what happened?"
"Haha, nothing happened. I came here mainly to talk to you. Of course, I also want to have a drink with you."
He Changkong smiled slightly, suddenly picked up the wine bottle and poured a bowl for Zhao Zhen.
Zhao Zhen quickly took it with both hands, and He Changkong touched Zhao Zhen with the wine bowl and drank it all in one gulp.
Zhao Zhen looked at it and drank it all in one gulp.
After finishing a bowl of wine, He Changkong smiled and said, "How about it, Han Hu and the others should get used to being around you."
"They're quite used to it, and I specially invited two alchemy masters to nurse them back to health. I think it won't be long before they all break through to the Martial Heaven Realm."
"Really? Haha, this is really great. I know I was right to entrust them to you." He Changkong showed a happier smile, "Well, this way I can rest assured in the future."
"This...General He..." Zhao Zhen frowned, but from He Changkong's words, he heard a feeling of explaining the funeral.
Coupled with He Changkong's haggard appearance, Zhao Zhen naturally had an ominous premonition.
"Zhao Zhen, although the eldest prince Xue Mo of the Hanxue Dynasty died, the second prince Xuesheng also got a chance to come back. This made everyone in the eldest prince's faction turn to him, and with many resources With the blessing of , he has broken through the realm one after another, and now, he has broken through the Wutian realm, and it is very likely that he has reached the second level of Wutian."
He Changkong suddenly said, "The most important thing is that the second prince has once again asked the Hanxue court to attack Fengxue City of our Shenlong Dynasty. As far as I know, Emperor Hanxue has agreed to his request and given He gathered an army of 800,000 people and promised that as long as he captured Fengxue City, he would immediately abdicate and pass Emperor Hanxue to him."
Hearing this, Zhao Zhen's expression changed. He knew that this was indeed a big deal!
Snow Wind City is about to enter a state of war again!
"Then it seems that I have to send all the disciples of Qingyun Sect there as soon as possible. After all, they are all the elites under the general's command..."
"Need not."
He Changkong waved his hand, interrupted Zhao Zhen's words and said with a smile, "The court is not going to take care of it anymore, so why should you take care of it?".m
"how come?"
Zhao Zhen frowned, "Snowstorm City is the most important border gate of the Shenlong Dynasty. Once it is breached, the enemy can march straight in and reach Longjing. How can they ignore it?"
"Haha, but they just don't care." He Changkong smiled sarcastically, "As early as a month ago, I had already sent a letter to the court, informing the court of the news and asking for support from the court. On the surface, the court replied that I would provide support, but this Within a month, not a single soldier has been delivered, and even the resources such as food, grass, soldiers, and armor that were delivered in the past have been greatly reduced."
"Is it?"
Zhao Zhen's eyes turned cold, "Is this Zhou Jingshen's fault? In order to deal with the general, he actually did not hesitate to sacrifice his country?"
"He doesn't have the ability."
He Changkong sneered and shook his head.
This made Zhao Zhen's eyes flash, and the next moment he said coldly, "Is that what Xian Zong Yun Tianlong did?"
"Almost, after all, he is the only one with this ability."
"I'm going to find Xiao Guanlan!"
Zhao Zhen stood up immediately, but He Changkong held his hand and said to Zhao Zhen, "No, and it's useless if you look for him. Xiao Guanlan is such a person. He doesn't know about the relationship between you and me. This matter It’s not like he didn’t know something, but he knew it but didn’t care, which proves that he was helpless.”
"Then you have to give it a try." Zhao Zhen frowned.
"There's no need to try. Yun Tianlong is now suppressing Xiao Guanlan in all directions. It's already very difficult for him to protect you. How can he protect me?"
He Changkong shook his head, which made Zhao Zhen speechless.
"Do you know what's most interesting about this?"
He Changkong smiled again at this time, his eyes full of sarcasm, "The most interesting thing is that the Immortal Sect issued an immortal edict to the Hanxue Dynasty, saying that it was inevitable for the dynasty to go to war, but regardless of Hanxue or Shenlong, the people within it were all immortals. The people of the sect, so after the war, no matter who wins or loses, the people in the country are not allowed to be massacred."
Zhao Zhen narrowed his eyes, and he knew with just this sentence that this was what Yun Tianlong had arranged!
Otherwise, why would this kind of immortal edict not be issued sooner rather than later, but at this time?
This makes it clear that it is a reassurance for Shenlong's court and Shenlong's people so that they will not resist, and its purpose is to get rid of He Changkong.
"I don't understand why Yun Tianlong wants to deal with General He."
Zhao Zhen said seriously, "After all, Yuntianlong's goal is to become the master of the Immortal Sect. The targets he wants to deal with should be Xiao Guanlan and other top geniuses in the continent. Why would he deal with General He?"
"Haha, this is also a question I have been thinking about during this time. Although I, He Changkong, have some reputation in the Shenlong Dynasty, it is nothing in the Dragon Continent. Why would Yun Tianlong deal with me?"
He Changkong smiled and nodded, but a flash of light flashed in his eyes, "But recently, I have some uncertain clues. According to my observations over the years, among the fifteen dynasties in the Dragon Continent, our Shenlong Dynasty is the only one." , is where people from the Immortal Sect appear most frequently, and is also where the fight between Xiao Guanlan and Yuntianlong is fiercest, which can be seen from Guanlan Hall and Longjun Hall."
Zhao Zhen was moved when he heard this, but he remembered what Yan Yun said to him before.
Longjing's standards are too high.
Bricks and tiles, trees and trees, they are not ordinary materials, and they also contain extremely sophisticated formations and patterns.
This naturally made him realize that the Shenlong Dynasty was not simple. Now that He Changkong said this again, it naturally made him feel that Longjing was even more mysterious.
Therefore, he did not hide anything and directly said what Yan Yun said.
And He Changkong's eyes flashed when he heard this, "Really? It seems that my observation is good. Our Shenlong Dynasty is indeed not simple. Although I don't know where it is not simple, but Yuntianlong wants to deal with me. It can be seen from the above. After all, I am an uncontrollable force in the Shenlong Dynasty. I neither belong to him nor to Xiao Guanlan. However, because of my relationship with you, I now have a tendency to go to Xiao Guanlan. There are signs of taking sides, so naturally he wants to get rid of me.”
Zhao Zhen also nodded after hearing this. He knew that what He Changkong said was right.
Everyone in the world has nothing to gain, but Yun Tianlong, who has such a high status, has to deal with He Changkong. Considering He Changkong's position in the Shenlong Dynasty, it can only be seen that Yun Tianlong has an extraordinary regard for the Shenlong Dynasty. of attention.
"It seems that the involvement between the Shenlong Dynasty and the Jinglong Immortal Sect is indeed unusual."
Zhao Zhen said at this time, his eyes changed, but he shook his head the next moment, "But what is involved in this is not what we can care about. The question before us now is how to survive."
After saying that, Zhao Zhen looked at He Changkong seriously and said, "General He, leave Snow Wind City."
"You have done a lot for the Shenlong Dynasty and fulfilled your responsibilities..."
"I have my choice."
He Changkong didn't let Zhao Zhen continue, he just smiled and said, "I want to stay with my son and my former boss."
Zhao Zhen frowned and wanted to speak, but He Changkong raised his hand and continued, "I know what you want to say. I also understand the truth. What has passed away has passed away, and what is alive will continue. But I was very tired and very old. During this period, I often dreamed about my former brothers and Pao Ze. In my dream, they didn’t say anything, they just stood there covered in blood, dumbfounded. Look at me blankly."
Zhao Zhen was speechless for a moment.
"But although they didn't say anything, I felt like they were all asking me. They were asking whether their previous efforts were worth it."
"And I didn't know how to answer that."
Having said this, He Changkong sighed and looked at the sky outside.
"Maybe when I see them, I will know how to answer them."
