Hu Yuan suddenly burst into laughter. The sword flashed, but the strike was slightly deflected. The sword that should have evenly split the dark energy envoy in front of him into two parts cut off only one of his arms.
"This arm is the price for your attempt to kidnap Pindao's disciples. Go back and tell King Ruyang that since he wants to lure Pindao to the capital, he must be prepared to pay a sufficient price!"
The Dark Qi user's face became paler, but without saying a word, he raised his left hand and moved his fingers like the wind, closing the acupuncture points on his shoulder to stop the bleeding, then turned around and flew away with the same swiftness as when he came, but ignored the people on the ground who could not afford to be seriously injured. The three envoys are the flowing clouds, the wonderful wind, and the shining moon.
At this moment, the four Dharma Kings came forward together and apologized to Hu Long, saying that they were incompetent and failed to protect the safety of the young leader.
Hu Yuan waved his hand and said with a smile: "Persian Ming Cult has lost the core essence of the 'Great Shift of the Universe', but therefore it no longer regards it as a magical skill to suppress the religion. It is practiced by many middle and high-level sects. In addition, it comes from the 'Old Man of the Mountain' Huo Shan If you don’t know the details of your strange fighting skills for the first time, even if your martial arts are superior to your opponent, you will inevitably suffer losses. But the four of you are the top martial arts masters of our time. As long as you calm down and think about their moves, it will not be difficult. Think of ways to deal with it or even solve it.”
The four of them were both ashamed and grateful, and they hurriedly thanked the leader for his guidance.
They had previously traveled all the way west and made a gesture of turning around Guangmingding, just to lure out the people who were hiding in secret. Now that their goal was achieved, they naturally had to act according to the plan they had made long ago.
Hu Yun first ordered Dai Qisi and Xie Xun to escort Zhang Wuji back to Guangmingding, and then handed over a sacred fire order to Xie Xun, allowing him to command the Five Elements Banner elite soldiers who had quietly expanded to 80,000, and were waiting for his order to prepare to enter. close.
Then they each delivered a Holy Fire Order to Yin Tianzheng and Wei Yixiao, and ordered them to act as messengers to inform the local branches that had restrained their minions in recent years to fully develop their respective strengths. They only waited for the news to come from the capital, and they took action together to disrupt the Central Plains in advance. He turned everything upside down and created conditions for the Five Elements Flag to enter the customs.
Finally, he took over the "Dragon-Slaying Knife" that was nominally given to Zhang Wuji but was still kept by Xie Xun for the time being, and put it into the jade gourd space in his sleeve. After saying goodbye to everyone, he headed towards the capital alone.
There was nothing to talk about along the way, nothing more than hungry meals, thirsty drinks and overnight stays at dawn. We arrived at the capital of the Yuan Dynasty in more than one day.
As the Mongolian cavalry marched eastward and westward, with their troops reaching tens of thousands of miles away, the territory of the Yuan Dynasty was as vast as that of previous dynasties.
As the residence of the emperor, Dadu has therefore become a prosperous international metropolis that brings together people of all colors from all over the world.
Walking on the streets, you can see envoys and business travelers from various vassal states everywhere. Most of the people coming and going on the streets are blond and blue-eyed.
Hu Long did not hide his identity, so he dressed up as usual and checked into a large inn. He ordered a table of food and wine in the front dining hall, drank from a large bowl, and ate happily as if there was no one else around.
This is not arrogance but confidence.
With Hu Yuan's current level of cultivation, there are only two ways to take his life:
One is to place him in an open wilderness where he can't hide, and then surround him with tens of thousands of troops to see if he can be beaten to death at the expense of human life.
However, Hu Yuan was in a bustling city such as Dadu. Even if Yuan Meng sent out a large army, he would have noticed it early. Even after being surrounded by them, he could easily escape through the complicated terrain.
The second is to gather together more than five great masters who have entered the subtle world and join forces to attack regardless of their status.
However, in today's world, even the most humble masters can be counted on their fingers. Even if Yuan Meng is in charge of the world, he will never be able to count them in one palm.
Perhaps Yuanmeng also knew this, so Hu Yuan was not disturbed by any troubles along the way.
He was eating and drinking happily when he suddenly sensed something. He stopped his cups and chopsticks and asked the waiter to prepare another pair of cups and chopsticks and place them on the opposite table.
As soon as the pair of cups and chopsticks were placed, many of the diners at the surrounding tables changed their faces slightly.
Not long after, several people walked into the dining hall from outside the door.
First there was a middle-aged man with a graceful bearing, holding in his hand a little girl with embroidered clothes and picturesque features.
Behind the man and the girl, there was an old man with gray hair and a red-haired Western Region Tutuo on the left and right.
The old man was slender, with a wrinkled face, and a sad face like a dead wife and child. In his arms was an ancient sword with a colorful scabbard, which turned out to be the Emei treasure "Yitian Sword".
Toutuo has a majestic body, his face is covered with crisscross scars, and his appearance is very ugly and fierce.
The four of them went straight to Hu Long's table. The man let go of the girl's hand, clasped his fists in greeting and said, "It's rare for Richard to be like Taoist Hu."
Although it was King Ruyang who was in charge of the military power of the world and could decide the lives and deaths of millions of people with one word, Hu Long had no intention of getting up and returning the courtesy. He just pointed to the seat in front of him and said: "That's easy to say, please sit down."
When King Ruyang saw the cups and chopsticks placed at the table, he had a slightly puzzled look on his face. While he bowed his hands to express his gratitude and sat down, he looked around casually and saw several diners shaking their heads slightly. He felt more and more that the person in front of him was already here. The Taoist who is in great trouble with Cheng Yuanmeng is enigmatic.
As soon as he sat down, the old man holding a sword behind him raised his voice: "The thousand-year-old King of Ruyang is here to receive guests, and the rest of the crowd should avoid it immediately!"
As soon as the words "King of Ruyang" came out, the faces of all the diners in the hall changed. They all hurriedly paid for the food and drinks and left. Even the waiters and shopkeepers hid in the back.
Hu Long clapped his hands and chuckled: "Your Majesty is so majestic!"
Although King Ruyang heard the sarcasm in his words, he only smiled and did not refute.
On the other hand, the little daughter standing next to him looked matter-of-factly and said bluntly: "I, Dayuan, have conquered the world, and Shunchang has perished against the odds. Doesn't my majesty end there?"
Hu Long looked at the little girl in front of him with her little hands on her hips and her head raised as she looked around, and asked with a smile: "Little girl, do you know who Pindao is?"
The girl scolded without fear: "I know that you are Taoist Hu Long, the big devil of the Demon Cult, and I also know that you killed my brother. But I am not afraid of you! One day, I will kill you with my own hands. Cut off your head and avenge your brother!"
Hu Long laughed and said to King Ruyang who was opposite him: "Your love is a majestic figure, and her ambition and courage are not inferior to those of men. However, I am a poor man, but I would like to congratulate you on having a successor!"
When King Ruyang heard the words "there is a successor", he immediately thought of his beloved son Wang Baobao. His heart hurt like a knife, but he still had to keep a smile on his face to avoid losing his temper.
He cupped his hands to express his gratitude for Hu Yuan's praise on behalf of his daughter, and then went straight to the point and said solemnly: "This time I took the liberty of inviting the Taoist priest to Beijing because I have a matter to discuss face to face."
Hu Long said calmly: "I would like to hear some high-level opinions."
King Ruyang said: "Nowadays, natural disasters and man-made disasters are frequent, and the people are suffering from floods and fires, and they are miserable. The imperial court knows that the Mingjiao wants to plan great things, but if there are military disasters, life will be ruined. This is not what the imperial court wants to see, nor what the Taoist priest wants to do." My Majesty, thinking of hundreds of millions of people, is willing to make the Taoist Master the King of Ming Dynasty, and to use the land of three thousand miles in the Western Region as the Taoist Chief to make the country. He can appoint and remove official posts, household registration, taxes, and diplomatic expeditions all by his own initiative. I don’t know what his long-term intentions are? "
