In the hall.
Although the purple-robed old man was more respectful, he was also arrogant. Hearing these words, he couldn't help but said: "Your Highness, Prince Jin, are we just sitting here and waiting for death? But there is no chance at all."
"That Wu Yuan never goes down to Yunshan Mountain all year round."
"Occasionally I go down the mountain, and I only stay in the east of Yunshan City. You know very well that it is heavily guarded there, and it is difficult for us to get accurate information." The old man in purple robe said: "As for Yunshan? We have also tried to spy on it, whether it is sending People, or bribed secretly, eventually disappeared."
"Moreover."
"For more than a year, most of our forces in the Hengyun Sect's territory have been exploring the traces of the "hidden knife", and we are completely unable to take care of Wu Yuan. "The purple-robed old man defended himself with a series of words.
Dong Wang Jinjiu stared at each other.
He knew that the other party was defending and stating the truth.
The power that can be mobilized is not enough, and the Hengyun Sect's protection of Wu Yuan is equally unprecedented.
"Wang Huang, what I want is not an explanation, but the result."
Dongwang Jinjiu said indifferently: "According to the latest information, Wu Yuan is already the number one in the Yunwu Palace, and he has passed through the "Hengtian Pavilion Second Floor" in Yunshan. He is likely to have the strength of a first-class master. "
The purple-robed old man listened and felt helpless in his heart.
Although this information has not yet been fully disseminated, almost all the top leaders of the various forces are aware of it.
How could he not know?
But knowing it, so what?
suddenly.
"His Royal Highness Dongwang." A powerful voice suddenly came from far and near, followed by a phantom flashing past.
A blue-robed figure appeared in the hall.
He has a slim body, nearly two meters tall, has an extraordinary bearing, and has a pair of very sharp eyes. Even in front of "Dong Wang Jinjiu" who is ranked twelfth on the Earth Ranking, he is not afraid at all.
"Brother." The old man in blue robe said.
"Lu Jiangyin!" Dong Wang Jinjiu frowned slightly.
Anyone who has a little understanding of the situation in Jiangzhou will instantly understand the identities of the three people present when they hear their names.
The Jin Empire is now known as the "Twelve Princes" guarding the four prefectures of Jiangzhou.
In fact, everyone knows that the real leaders are the three Dibang Grandmasters - Chen Luo, Lu Jiangyin, and Wang Huang.
Among the three great masters, Chen Luo is the strongest, while Lu Jiangyin and Wang Huang are more united as brothers with different surnames.
The two sides restrained each other, which was also the check and balance strategy of the Jin Empire.
"His Royal Highness the King of the East is here, but I couldn't welcome you from far away. Please forgive me." Lu Jiangyin bowed slightly and cupped his hands.
Saw this scene.
Dongwang Jinjiu's face softened slightly. He knew very well that the two people in front of him were two masters, and they were the two sharp blades of the empire's eastward advance.
It's impossible to really punish.
Grandmasters and masters are all proud.
Just like Grandmaster Chen Luo, even if his protection against the Ninth Prince was unfavorable and resulted in his death, he would only end the matter by reducing his rank.
"Luke Gong."
"In the past few years, you have not eradicated these threats, whether it is the hidden knife, Wu Yuan, or Xu Hui." Dong Wang Jinjiu said softly: "You must give me an explanation."
"It's my incompetence in doing things." Lu Jiangyin said in a low voice: "His Royal Highness Dongwang has to worry about going to Jiangzhou."
He is different from the purple-robed old man Wang Huang.
Lu Jiangyin didn't defend himself at all.
Dongwang Jinjiu, as their direct superior, went to Jiangzhou to question the crime, so he must be angry.
Admit your mistake and be honest!
What is the actual situation and does it matter? Important, but more important is the attitude of admitting mistakes.
Attitude is important.
"Okay, I also know that you are dealing with all parties, the situation is complicated, and the power in your hands is insufficient." Dong Wang Jinjiu nodded: "I don't blame you."
"but."
"This situation has to be resolved." Dong Wang Jinjiu said calmly: "Can you discuss a plan?"
Lu Jiangyin and Wang Huang looked at each other.
"Second brother, the plan you made,
Tell it to King Dong. Lu Jiangyin said.
He knew that his second brother had just hated King Dong, so he wanted to give the other brother the opportunity to express himself and ease their relationship.
"Your Highness."
Wang Huang was a straightforward man, but he was not a fool. He understood that his elder brother was giving him a chance, and said, "We made two plans together and were about to report it when Your Highness came."
"Tell me about it." Dong Wang Jinjiu remained calm.
"First, there is a reward." Wang Huang, the purple-robed old man said, "Let the Seven Star Tower, Nine Kills Mansion and other forces go and fight with..."
"It's difficult." Dongwang Jinjiu shook his head directly.
veto!
"Top masters have the opportunity to kill Wu Yuan, but the risk is extremely high. Not many people are willing. Wu Yuan's reward has always been there, but no one can complete it." Dongwang Jinjiu said indifferently: "As for the grandmaster? Let Qixing Tower, Jiu The grand master of the killing house is sent out, and the price is extremely high."
Wang Huang and Lu Jiangyin couldn't help but nod.
To kill a hidden knife, the Jin Empire is willing to pay 100 million taels of silver!
Even at the cost of a set of magical skills.
Can you kill Wu Yuan? Firstly, the talent displayed by the other party is not that terrifying, and secondly, Wu Yuan is still weak, and he can make more arrangements with lower cost.
the most important.
It is an unspoken rule that all parties in the world abide by. The Earth Ranking Grandmaster will not easily take action against warriors below the Grandmaster level.
For a master, even an army of millions is useless. Once he goes crazy to assassinate someone, how many days will it take to stop them?
"What about the second one?" Dong Wang Jinjiu asked.
"According to the intelligence we collected, Wu Yuan goes down the mountain to go home once every year during the Chinese New Year." Wang Huang said: "Although the defense of Yunshan Mansion is strong, it is not difficult for experts at the top of the list to sneak in."
"According to time, Wu Yuan is about to come down the mountain."
"So, we plan to send several top experts to jointly sneak into Yunshan Mansion."
"Assassination." Wang Huang said solemnly: "After the first wave of assassination, regardless of success or failure, immediately retreat."
Dongwang Jinjiu listened.
This plan sounds simple.
But in fact, this is the norm. There can be no seven or eight reversals of real conspiracies, because human nature is difficult to distinguish and people's hearts are unpredictable.
The so-called calculations without omissions and clever tips are mostly the imagination of literati.
To crush with absolute strength and win with dignity and dignity is what most wise men want.
"Well, it will be much easier to assassinate in Yunshan Mansion than in Yunshan." Dong Wang Jinjiu said softly: "However, just arranging a few top experts may not be successful."
"Maybe we will all fall into it."
"Wang Huang!"
"Since this is the plan you conceived, you are the most suitable candidate. This trip is not as good as yours." Dong Wang Jinjiu said calmly.
"Me?" Wang Huang's pupils shrank.
He couldn't help but look at his elder brother.
"His Royal Highness Dongwang."
Lu Jiangyin frowned: "If Grandmaster takes action, then Wu Yuan will not be spared, but Bu Yu and Huan Jian will probably go crazy."
Once the fragile balance is broken.
The results are difficult to predict.
"I hope that when the time comes, Bu Yu will be angry and come to Jinyang City with his sword." Dong Wang Jinjiu said softly: "I will be in charge of Jinyang for a while."
"Don't worry too much."
"Bu Yu is nearly a hundred years old, Huan Jian is selfish."
"Wu Yuan is the only big threat to the future of Hengyun Sect." Dong Wang Jinjiu said slowly: "We can no longer stay. Wu Yuan must be eradicated before the "Battle of Dingjiang" breaks out. "
"otherwise."
"After the war, Wu Yuan is likely to escape from Yunshan and hide for more than ten years. When he becomes a master or even a grand master, it will be difficult to eradicate him." Dong Wang Jinjiu said.
Lu Jiangyin and Wang Huang were both suffocated.
Grandmaster?
The world generally refers to the top ten on the Earth Ranking as Grandmasters, but in fact, the Grandmasters on the Earthly Ranking generally refer to the "strongest masters at the pinnacle" as Grandmasters.
.
There are only twenty or thirty great masters in the world.
Looking across thousands of miles of Jiangzhou, there are only two great masters.
One is Master Yu, the leader of Hengyun Sect, and the other is "Chu Ping", the king of Baijiang.
With these two people present, it would be difficult for the Jin Empire to conquer Jiangzhou. This shows how terrifying the Grand Master's intimidation and combat power are.
"The Battle of Dingjiang? What was it?" Lu Jiangyin suddenly asked.
"It doesn't hurt to tell you first. After all, we will notify you by May at the latest so that they can prepare." Dongwang Jinjiu said slowly: "I have discussed with His Majesty that in October this year, the 7th, 8th, and 9th Jin Holy Army will The three armies will march to Chuzhou."
"Early next year, we will enter Jinyang!"
Both Lu Jiangyin and Wang Huang couldn't help but be shocked. The Jin Holy Army was the most elite army of the Jin Empire, the Royal Forest Army!
There are nine legions in total, totaling 90,000 people.
It doesn't sound like much, but you need to know that every sergeant of the Jin Holy Army is a top-notch master, and they are the most elite and powerful army in the entire world.
The leader of every legion is a master!
Mobilizing three legions can defeat an army of millions.
"In November of this year, King Bei will lead Yuanzhou with one hundred thousand cavalry."
"In March next year, 60,000 Minzhou navy will go north and merge with 60,000 Chuzhou navy. A total of 120,000 navy will enter Jiangzhou along the river." Dongwang Jinjiu said: "When the army gathers and the masters gather, it is planned to be launched on the sixth day of next year. Months ago, the "Battle of Dingjiang" was launched, heading down the Yunjiang River, attacking Yunshan City, and then towards Jiudong City, completely pacifying Jiangdong. "
"In this battle, "Wu Chenggong" will be the commander! "
Lu Jiangyin and Wang Huang completely understood.
Ten years after the Battle of Hengshan, the empire will once again launch a war to destroy the country.
The Northern King of the Jin Dynasty is the "pillar" of the royal family no less than the Eastern King, and he is also a great master.
Among the 100,000 Yuanzhou Iron Cavalry, the weakest one is also a martial artist.
There are 120,000 navy troops to suppress Chuzhou and Minzhou. More than half of them are martial arts masters, who are equally elite.
In addition to the Jin Empire's "Eastern Expedition Army" in Jiangzhou, the number totaled 80,000.
A total of 300,000 elite troops.
Coupled with the 30,000 Jin Holy Army pressing down on the formation, this is definitely a terrifying force capable of destroying a sect and destroying a country.
A showdown between armies?
Even if the two major forces of Hengyun Sect and Baijiang King were combined, they would not be able to match such a large army.
Moreover, once multiple armies gather together, there will be more than ten masters alone.
Most importantly, Lu Jiangyin and Wang Huang heard that the commander of the army was not the King of the East or the King of the North, but - Wu Chenggong!
Forty years ago, the Chu River was destroyed!
Thirty years ago, the Three Kingdoms of Nanzhou were conquered and completely destroyed!
Fifteen years ago, 80,000 horsemen set foot on Xizhou, marched 16,000 miles, forced the tribes of Xizhou to surrender, and returned in triumph, completely solving the two-hundred-year-old scourge in the western frontier of the Jin Dynasty.
Recognized as the number one coach in the world and the God of War of the Jin Dynasty!
In the Jin Dynasty, he and his country had the same status as a first-class duke. He could enter the palace without taking off his armor and see the king without paying homage. This was the ultimate example of a human minister.
In terms of force, it ranks second in the "Earth Ranking"!
He is named Gong, but he is actually King!
Not to mention the King of the North and the King of the East, even the Emperor of Jin would stand up and respectfully call him "General Lan" when he saw him.
"Is it really Duke Wu Cheng?" Lu Jiangyin couldn't help but ask.
It's so shocking.
"Of course." Dongwang Jinjiu said calmly: "This is a top secret and must not be leaked. All you need to know is that the battle of Dingjiang will be a battle that will overwhelm the country."
"Jiangzhou was pacified, and the unification of the Central Plains was mostly completed."
"If we lose this battle... it will be difficult to fight again in thirty years." Dong Wang Jinjiu said: "So, don't care what the Hengyun Sect thinks."
"That's what you have to do."
"Before the war, we will eliminate the future threats from the Hengyun Sect and even King Baijiang one by one."
"Understood." Lu Jiangyin and Wang Huang both said.
"Wang Huang." Jin Jiu looked at the purple-robed old man and said solemnly: "This time, you
If I can successfully kill Wu Yuan, I will definitely go up to His Majesty and reward him with a reward of 30 million yuan. "
Draw a big pie and make a promise.
Only then can your subordinates do their best.
"Thirty million credits?" The purple-robed old man's eyes lit up.
Naturally, they worked for Da Jin not because of their loyalty.
Profit is the first priority.
In exchange for a set of magical skills, it is 100 million credits.
It only costs 60,000 credits to exchange for a drop of ancient immortal dew. You can imagine how generous this reward is.
"OK."
"Now that the plan has been decided, you should make arrangements as soon as possible." Jin Jiu said softly: "I also want to go to Hengshan City to meet Chen Luo."
soon.
Dongwang Jinjiu left.
There are only two Grandmasters left.
"Second brother, do you really plan to go?" Lu Jiangyin frowned.
"Brother, this is 30 million credits." Wang Huang said excitedly: "Once it is completed, I will not be far away from exchanging a set of "immortal arts". "
"Second brother, calm down!"
Lu Jiangyin shook his head: "Although immortality is good, you still have to have a life to get it. You killed Wu Yuan, and the news cannot be hidden forever."
"Wu Yuan is the hope of the Hengyun Sect. Anyone who dares to extinguish this hope will fight to the death with the Hengyun Sect."
"Whoever goes will be targeted by Bu Yu, Huan Jian and the others." Lu Jiangyin said, "Otherwise, why do you think no one dares to accept the bounty mission?"
Lu Jiangyin saw this very clearly.
"In the battle to pacify Jiangzhou, we will have to deal with them sooner or later." Wang Huang said, "Brother, there is no need to worry."
"snort!"
"Hengyun Sect has been standing in Jiangzhou for hundreds of years, and its methods are unpredictable. If nothing else, once Bu Yu goes all out, are you willing to trade lives with her?"
Lu Jiangyin snorted coldly: "Then Jin Jiu is still sitting in Jinyang? Let us not worry? Huh! If there is really no danger, why doesn't he go there himself?"
Wang Huang also calmed down.
"Brother, what should I do?" Wang Huang couldn't help but ask.
"The Jin Dynasty's unstoppable power to dominate the world is unstoppable. What we seek is glory, so naturally we must follow the strongest, but we can let others chew on us." Lu Jiangyin said, "Jin Jiu named you to go. You must go."
Wang Huang nodded.
"Wu Yuan, don't touch him easily."
"You lead the team and bring a few top experts to assassinate." Lu Jiangyin said softly: "As long as you succeed, you will get all the credit for nothing."
"When the time comes, we will make a big fanfare and publicize that it was those top masters who killed Wu Yuan. We don't want to attract the hatred of the Hengyun Sect."
"If the assassination fails, there is no need to worry about those top experts."
"Go directly to Xu Hui!"
Lu Jiangyin smiled and said: "This is also a threat."
"Killing him won't make the two old guys from Hengyun Sect go crazy, but it will be enough to give Jin Jiu a lesson."
Wang Huang's eyes lit up: "Brother is wise."
…
Yunshan Mansion, Yunshan.
After the annual competition, Wu Yuan was almost invincible, sweeping away the disciples of Yunwu Hall and breaking through the second floor of "Hengtian Pavilion".
His reputation in Yunwu Palace has reached its peak.
at the same time.
The display of strength that was comparable to that of a first-class master also shocked the entire sect, and soon there were calls for it.
Wu Yuan was to be promoted from a true disciple to a "Tianwu true disciple".
Not only the top masters and first-class masters from the Caigong Hall, but also the Teaching Hall have spoken out.
However, they were all suppressed by the Supreme Being.
Wu Yuan's rapid growth and the spread of news shocked all parties, and undercurrents surged.
but.
These sounds had no effect on Wu Yuan at all.
He was still practicing step by step.
More than ten days after the annual competition, Wu Yuancai Shi Shiran came to the Caigong Hall and met Elder Huan.
"Elder."
"Come to see you, two
thing. Wu Yuan smiled and said: "First, I apply to participate in a trial mission."
The sect will arrange various trial tasks for the disciples of Yunwu Hall, especially the disciples of the Upper House.
The sect's training of disciples is not about growing flowers in a greenhouse just to look beautiful.
The ultimate goal is to fight and fight!
Without going through life and death, without going through hardships, even if you are strong and skilled, you will probably only be able to exert 30% to 50% of your 100% strength.
"Trial mission?"
Elder Huan frowned at first, then nodded and said, "Well, Your Majesty has told me that I will notify you when there is a suitable mission."
"After all, regular guard missions and patrol missions are not suitable for you."
Wu Yuan couldn't help but nod.
Trial missions are not all about fighting and killing. For example, "Huan Xinyan" serves as a teacher in the martial arts academy, which is a kind of trial.
Just like becoming a civil servant and military commander in a prefecture and a county, it is also a trial.
"Is there anything else?" Elder Huan asked.
"Go down the mountain and go home to celebrate the New Year." Wu Yuan said.
"Going down the mountain?"
Elder Huan looked at Wu Yuan and said in a low voice: "Wu Yuan, do you know that you have broken through the second floor of Hengtian Pavilion, and now, the attention of all forces on you will only be higher."
"I know." Wu Yuan said calmly.
"Then you still want to go down the mountain?" Elder Huan frowned
"Elder, I now have the strength of a first-class master and have some ability to protect myself." Wu Yuan shook his head and said: "But even if I become a top master, a master master can still kill me. Is it possible that I will never come down the mountain?"
Elder Huan was speechless.
"Elder, don't worry, Yunshan Mansion is quite safe. Even top experts, few dare to assassinate in the east of the city." Wu Yuan said: "Besides, I will use Yi Gu and then go down the mountain, and I will not enter the mansion with a big fanfare."
"Not many people know."
"Elder, after spending three to five days at most with your family, you will return to the mountain." Wu Yuan said with a smile.
"Okay, then you have to be careful." Elder Huan could only nod.
Farewell to Elder Huan.
Wu Yuan was walking on the road.
"Assassination?" Wu Yuan shook his head slightly and said with a smile: "It's okay if there is no assassination. If you come to assassinate, it will save a lot of effort."
Notice.
The bloody mist that Wu Yuan obtained during the last battle in Yunjiang has been almost exhausted in the past six months.
Just in need of replenishment.
We stayed at Yunshan for another two days.
It wasn't until the day before the New Year that Wu Yuan used Yi Gu and left Yunshan silently.
…
Entering Yunshan City, Wu Yuan first strolled along the street.
The bustling streets and alleys made Wu Yuan, who had long been accustomed to tranquility, feel a lot of excitement in his heart.
"Fireworks."
Wu Yuan wandered around casually, watching the vendors and passers-by bargaining in the streets and alleys, and couldn't help but smile: "A sea of people is the people's peace, and the traffic is the world."
Wu Yuan traveled thousands of miles across Jiangzhou.
He walked through the Yuanhu Mansion under the rule of Yuanhu Villa, the Nanyun Mansion under the rule of King Baijiang, and even the Dalong Mansion where human lives were like grass and in chaos.
"Comparatively speaking, the rule of the Hengyun Sect is pretty good for ordinary people." Wu Yuan has seen the light and also knows the darkness.
If we say that practicing hard in the mountains, eating qi, and refining qi, it means transcending the world.
It will give practitioners a sense of "the vastness of the world and my lifetime is short", so they can occasionally come to the city and immerse themselves in the sightseeing.
It is to bring the soul back to the human world again!
that's all.
After walking around and buying a lot of gifts for his mother and sister, Wu Yuan returned to his normal appearance and entered the "Wu Mansion" through the side door.
The news that "the young master has returned to the house" quickly spread throughout the house.
However, everyone in the mansion strictly ordered that the news should not be spread outside, so even the nearby mansions did not know about Wu Yuan's return.
I have seen my mother and sister.
Night falls.
In the house to the east, on the second floor, Wu
Yuan sat here quietly, with a thought in his mind, his thoughts spread in all directions involuntarily.
Countless information pours into the brain!
Everything in a radius of more than a hundred meters was shrouded in Wu Yuan's spiritual thoughts, including his family, clan members, and many maids and attendants.
Everything is clearly perceived by him.
"Shen Nian, it's really magical. Is this the way the Qi Masters control it?" Wu Yuan sighed secretly.
Every time he uses his spiritual thoughts, he feels magical.
The Qi Refiner is a completely dimensionally reducing blow to the warrior.
"Elder Zhang, the ancient palace master, you are really dedicated." Wu Yuan clearly sensed it with his spiritual mind.
Only about a hundred meters away, on both sides of Wu Mansion.
There are two masters with extremely strong vitality, each stationed on one side.
In the dark night, it is impossible to detect visually.
But in Wu Yuan's perception, the two of them were as dazzling as fire!
Top master! Two of you!
And Wu Yuan has seen them all before.
One of them is "Elder Zhang" of the Military Martial Hall, the thirty-fourth person in Jiangzhou!
One, Gu Wang, the master of the Supervisory Hall, is fourth in the list of Jiangzhou people, and is the master closest to the master level in Hengyun Sect.
It is clear.
After Elder Huan agreed to Wu Yuan's descent from the mountain, he quickly reported it to Supreme Master Yu, who ordered two top masters to secretly follow and protect Wu Yuan.
In fact, Wu Yuan sensed their presence on the way down the mountain.
"It's Chinese New Year, let the two top masters stay here alone." Wu Yuan sighed secretly, and also felt a trace of apology.
But there is no way to explain it.
...In the blink of an eye, three days passed and the new year began.
Wu Yuan, in addition to his normal daily practice, rarely spent time with his family, and spent a lively year.
Snow falls again.
They were floating in the air like catkins, and the temperature suddenly dropped. As night fell, every household closed their doors.
The streets were quiet except for the occasional sergeant who passed by on patrol.
"Whizzing!"
"Whoosh!"
In the darkness, several figures braved the wind and snow, dodging buildings one after another, carefully sliding through the streets and entering the east area of the city.
Finally, we entered an empty room.
"Here is only three miles away from the Wu Mansion." The burly "Wang Huang" was shrouded in a black robe, with only a pair of eyes exposed.
"According to the inside information we received, Wu Yuan has returned to the house and should be living on the second floor of the small building on the east side of the house now."
"I understand." Wang Huang glanced at the three figures in front of him.
"yes!"
The three figures nodded.
"Go! Kill Wu Yuan!" Wang Huang waved his hand.
The three people who had already changed into their "night clothes" opened the window, quietly floated down the window, and quickly headed towards the Wu Mansion.
