In the palace of Prince Yan.
The departing Wei Wuya and others, led by the servants in the mansion, arrived in the backyard soon. After the servants left, Bei Mingxue chuckled and said:
"Seeing King Yan again feels like a world away. His power is more terrifying than that of Master. I'm afraid... he's not far from the Sixth Realm Immortal, right?"
Wei Wuya nodded and agreed:
"My master once lamented after returning from the first battle in the Goddess Palace, saying that King Yan's strength is not inferior to that of Ye Xiangnan of Emperor Wu Cheng, second only to Xiang Qianqiu, and is one of the few in the Six Realms.
This level has surpassed the master, and is only half a step away from the Sixth Realm. When he reaches the Immortal Realm, he will be separated from us by the immortal world. "
"It's really unbelievable that there is such a strange man in the world. In just a few years, he has cultivated to the top of the world."
"If King Yan swallows up the Central Plains and the world surrenders, then he will be the Emperor of the Central Plains. The world will not be able to accommodate such a true dragon emperor. Master said that King Yan has the qualifications of Taizu of Chu!"
The Heaven Prisoner Demon Lord Song Zhilun, who had been silent all this time, echoed:
"This is also the reason why the master of the palace insists on surrendering to King Yan. King Yan is like the Taizu of Chu thousands of years ago. He is favored by heaven. He is a person with great fortune and cannot go against him.
Looking at the forces that have opposed Chen Yuan over the years, almost all of them have had a good end. Although the Heavenly Demon Palace has the foundation of the Immortal Sect, it is impossible to compete with such an existence.
It is precisely because of this that when Xiang Qianqiu asked the Immortal Patriarch in my palace to ambush Chen Yuan together, the Lord of the Hall chose to refuse, saying that the Patriarch was in retreat.
In fact, I just don't want to have a grudge with Chen Yuan too harshly.
Sure enough, during the battle in the Goddess Palace, the big backer behind Chen Yuan showed up. He was a genuine Earth Immortal, a being that even the founder of the Heavenly Demon Palace could not match.
Everyone is a great supernatural power! "
"terrible!"
Wei Wuya sighed softly.
What Wei Jinfeng's son Wei Wuque said back then was very right. Being born in the same era as Chen Yuan was not only their greatest luck, but also their greatest misfortune.
Looking at the last Qianlong Ranking Tianjiao, they were all overwhelmed by Chen Yuan. Now, they have been directly ranked alongside them, because Chen Yuan's current opponents are the top three strong ones on the Tianxian Ranking. , is an immortal above the six realms!
"Saint."
Song Zhilun suddenly stopped and looked at her solemnly, which made Bei Mingxue feel strange. She subconsciously smiled and asked, "Why is Uncle Song so serious all of a sudden?"
The saints and saints of the Heavenly Demon Palace are all disciples of the master of the palace, and the Four Demon Lords are the seniors who watched them grow up. She and the Scarlet Lian Demon Lord are as close as mother and daughter.
But the relationship with the other Demon Lords is not too bad. Normally, they are called like this to show their closeness.
"Do you know why the palace master brought you here this time?"
Bei Mingxue frowned:
"Don't you want me to see the style of King Yan?"
"Haha, of course not. The whole world knows how beautiful King Yan is, so why do you need to support him personally?" Song Zhilun shook his head.
"That is?"
Bei Mingxue suddenly felt something bad in her heart.
"I'm not supposed to say these words. It's just that Master has watched you grow up after all, so there are some things that you can't say out loud. In order for me to speak out, I brought you here this time for the sake of marriage."
Song Zhilun turned around and said in a deep voice with his hands behind his back.
"Marriage?"
"Marriage!"
The former was Wei Wuya's voice. He frowned, since he didn't really like this kind of thing. The Heavenly Demon Palace actually needed a saint for marriage.
Simply ridiculous!
But thinking that the other person was Chen Yuan, he finally endured the words that came to his lips.
It's not because he and Bei Mingxue don't deal with each other, but because he knows the current situation of the Demon Palace and roughly guesses some of the thoughts of the palace master.
The latter was Bei Mingxue. Although she had judged the matter from Song Zhilun's previous words, she still had a trace of luck in her heart.
She felt that as an immortal sect, Tianmo Palace had no precedent for marriage since ancient times, but when Song Zhilun said the words, she knew that it was irreversible.
It's not that she hates Chen Yuan. In fact, counting this time, she and Chen Yuan only have a mutual relationship, and all they know about them is the rumors in the world.
I can't say I hate it, but it's impossible to say I like it.
She is not a nymphomaniac, she wants to be a powerful woman like Feng Jiuge.
"Do we have to get married?"
Bei Mingxue was silent for a moment, wanting to fight for it.
"The master of the palace does not want you to refuse. The situation in the world has become clear. Ye Xiangnan of Emperor Wu of the East China Sea has a secret alliance with Chen Yuan, and there is a high probability that he will support his rise to power.
Although Liangzhou Wei Jinfeng and his son were strong, their alliance with Wudang Mountain was not strong. They just had the same goal of guarding the borders of the Central Plains.
Except for Buddhism, Chen Yuan is the most likely to be the final winner.
Since ancient times, Buddhism and demons have been incompatible. Buddhist teachings and the Heavenly Demon Palace are incompatible with each other. If Buddhism wins, the Heavenly Demon Palace will be very sad in the future and can only support Chen Yuan's rise to power.
It's just... Chen Yuan is now in a state of affairs, and the Heavenly Demon Palace is only supporting it now. It's not a help in times of need, it's just the icing on the cake. The palace master wants to strive for more benefits.
You need to pay some price, I hope... you can understand. "
Song Zhilun's tone was always calm.
Bei Mingxue took a deep breath, nodded, and said:
"I understand, Bei Mingxue will obey the order of the palace master!"
It's not that she doesn't want to resist, but Song Zhilun's words have reached this point, leaving her no room to resist at all, in the face of the interests of the entire Heavenly Demon Palace.
What does a saint mean?
It's just an item that can be sacrificed at any time.
It's neither sad nor angry. As a member of the Demon Cult, you should have the awareness to put interests first. Besides... following Chen Yuan is not something that is difficult to accept.
It's just that it's really hard for her to face the fact that her former opponent will become her pillow partner.
"Thanks for your hard work...."
Song Zhilun was silent for a long time and uttered three words.
"Haha, it's hard to talk about it. I heard that many people who want to become King Yan's women can't find a way. Even Feng Jiuge once put down his figure, but was rejected by King Yan.
I, Bei Mingxue, may not be able to catch the eyes of King Yan..." Bei Mingxue smiled faintly and accepted it quickly. Since I can't resist, I might as well think about what posture will be comfortable in the future.
Wei Wuya remained silent because now he was just a Holy Son and it was not his turn to make the decision. All he could do was to maintain the one-sided relationship with Chen Yuan.
In this way, the other party will not be bored.
When people are strong and I am weak, it is normal to bow your head.
It's just that those who once bowed their heads were all enemies of the Heavenly Demon Palace. Now, they finally encountered an existence even more powerful than the Heavenly Demon Palace.
...
...
"I have heard that the Red Refined Demon Lord of the Heavenly Demon Palace and the Saint of Beiming are as close as mother and daughter..."
Dongfang Sheng's eyes paused, and his mind instantly recalled some rumors about Chen Yuan, saying that he was a good wife, but the Red Lian Demon Lord had never married anyone.
I thought Chen Yuan wouldn't be interested, but I didn't expect that this person's hobbies would become more and more...different.
"Prince Yan's request is really embarrassing, but...I can't agree to it. I can have a detailed discussion with the Red Lian Demon Lord when I go back and see her..."
Before Dongfang Sheng finished speaking, Chen Yuan was suddenly stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that this guy's brain circuit was so strange, and he completely misunderstood him.
Immediately he said:
"Fellow Taoist Dongfang has misunderstood. What Chen means is that Demon Lord Red Lian and Holy Girl Beiming are as close as mother and daughter. I really can't bear their separation, so this matter..."
"I understand."
Dongfang Sheng nodded.
Although Chen Yuan's request was somewhat beyond his expectation, for the benefit of the Heavenly Demon Palace, it was not difficult to accept, but the Red Lian Demon Lord was a bit difficult to deal with.
The four great demons of the Heavenly Demon Palace have all made great contributions to the Heavenly Demon Palace. If they are sent out as goods, it will inevitably make the people below worry.
After all, she is different from saints like Bei Mingxue.
"Fellow Taoist Dongfang..." Chen Yuan wanted to ask him what he knew, and why the smile on his face was so strange, which almost undermined his wisdom!
"Actually, King Yan can also see my intentions. Indeed... Tianmo Palace's surrender to King Yan is just the icing on the cake, not a help in times of need. The people below are still a little worried after all.
The Patriarch also has some concerns, so I have to say such a marriage. I hope King Yan will understand. "
"I understand."
"I can make the final decision regarding Bei Mingxue. You can keep her in the palace now, but afterwards, King Yan must make her a concubine. This can be regarded as taking care of the face of my Heavenly Demon Palace.
As for the Scarlet Lian Demon Lord... I'm afraid she won't be able to marry her, and I can't force her to do so, but asking her to come over and be Bei Mingxue's guard for a while is nothing.

As for the rest, it all depends on King Yan's methods. "
Dongfang Sheng tried his best to explain the matter as clearly as possible, hoping that Chen Yuan would understand what was inside. It was not that the Red Lian Demon Lord could not be sacrificed, but she just needed to take care of her face.
"this...."
Chen Yuan frowned and wanted to refuse, but he couldn't open his mouth no matter what. Tianmo Palace wanted to have a deeper relationship with Chen Yuan, and he also hoped to completely tie Tianmo Palace to his chariot.
In this way, the Heavenly Demon Palace can block the eastward advancement of Buddhism at all costs.
If they refuse, it will inevitably leave a thorn in the hearts of both parties.
"Forget it, just follow the words of our Eastern Taoist friends..."
"Chi Lian has a miserable life experience and a strong personality. King Yan... please bear with me." Dongfang Sheng was silent for a moment and suddenly said.
Is it his old subordinate who has followed him for more than a hundred years, or does he not want the other party to be treated differently?
Chen Yuan smiled but did not agree.
He just nodded awkwardly.
After that, Chen Yuan and Dongfang Sheng had cordial and friendly talks about deeper cooperation. Although the other party kept saying that they needed to go back and ask the ancestor to make the decision.
But both parties actually knew that Tianmo Palace definitely wanted to cooperate with Chen Yuan, and Dongfang Sheng could make the decision by himself. He was just looking for an excuse.
After some business exchanges, Dongfang Sheng proposed to say goodbye.
But Chen Yuan did not agree, and still entertained the other party before letting him go.
When they came, four people came to the Heavenly Demon Palace, but when they left, only two people left. Bei Mingxue was married, and from now on, he will stay in Prince Yan's palace.
Half of Wei Wuya was the proton left by the Heavenly Demon Palace, and the other half was that he also wanted to stay with Chen Yuan and experience it, hoping to learn something from Chen Yuan.
All in all, the conversation between Chen Yuan and Tianmo Palace was quite pleasant, and he had officially extended his hand into the Blood State, which was something that no one in the Sima family had ever done.
The next few days passed very peacefully.
Chen Yuan met Bei Mingxue several times, but there was no substantive relationship between the two parties. Both parties knew each other well, but Chen Yuan was not interested in having any affection between children now.
I just asked carefully what things Bei Mingxue took from Yuan Kong Realm.
The answer I got was a picture.
"What picture?"
Chen Yuan became somewhat interested. In his opinion, the resources of the Holy Maiden of the Heavenly Demon Palace were definitely not comparable to those of two casual cultivator masters. Therefore, he must have some purpose in concealing his identity to fight for her.
Even at this stage, there is still some doubt.
After hearing this, Bei Mingxue walked to the study table and drew out the picture completely according to her own memory. As for the complete picture, she had naturally given it to Dongfang Sheng.
She just received some resource rewards, but there was no other movement. She knew that what she got didn't seem so precious.
"King Yan, please take a look!"
"This seems to be the secret of the Demon Palace, right?" Chen Yuan did not look anxiously, but asked with a smile.
In his opinion, that picture probably has no use for him now. Even if it is a secret realm, the resources inside it are nothing to him.
Just a little curious.
Bei Mingxue looked at Chen Yuan and said with a faint smile:
"Master betrothed me to King Yan. From then on, Xue'er became a member of Prince Yan's palace. She still knew who she should turn to. But King Yan asked, whether it was the secret of the Heavenly Demon Palace or not, Xue'er would know nothing. reserve."
I have to say that Bei Mingxue's words were very beautiful. Although Chen Yuan was not interested in some of the secrets of the Demon Palace, he still felt quite comfortable when he heard what the other party said.
Bei Mingxue, be sensible!
She knew which way her butt should be pointing now, regardless of whether it was intentional or not, but at least her attitude was right, and she wasn't the stupid woman he was tired of who couldn't figure out the situation.
"I understand what you mean."
Chen Yuan patted her hand. Before, he really had no interest in Bei Mingxue. He just wanted to raise one more person in the back house, but now he suddenly became more interested.
After saying that, Bei Mingxue's face showed a hint of blush, and he unfolded the map and placed it in front of Chen Yuan.
Chen Yuan looked at the picture carefully, but his brows were slightly frowned.
Because he couldn't understand the font on it. It was completely different from the mainstream fonts in the Central Plains. It was somewhat like the divine marks that once appeared on his body.
As for the map, he also didn't understand it. He could only vaguely detect some similarities with the current terrain.
"Does the Heavenly Demon Palace have any insights into this picture?"
