If you invest in Ningyue now, you may get unexpected returns in the future.
"Thank you very much, Your Majesty. I owe you a favor." Ning Yue said with cupped hands.
"You're welcome, I'm not a stingy person. What happened before is in the past, so there's no need to dwell on it.
By the way, you still need to find out more about the demon-slaying army. In cahoots with the devil.
This matter is no small matter, there must be a very powerful force behind it, and I will help if necessary. "
Gu Xinghe said calmly.
Ning Yue nodded, and then he left the hall.
At this time, the old man from Yinshan came out from behind a screen and grinned:
"My lord, can't you even see what's so mysterious about him?"
The old man from Yinshan is well aware of the horror of Gu Xinghe. Although Gu Xinghe is only halfway through the tribulation, his real strength is comparable to that.
“This person really has some wonderful abilities, he possesses two Nascent Souls and various magic weapons.
In addition, his heart seems to have transformed into a beast, which must be related to his two Nascent Souls.
Moreover, there is a talisman in his body. This talisman seems to come from a high-level plane.
And since he came from the lower realm, how could he have a talisman from a high-level plane?
This is really thought-provoking, so I didn’t act rashly. Maybe someone can ask him to help me peek into some of the laws of higher planes. "
Gu Xinghe showed a mysterious smile.
"Peering into the laws of higher planes? It seems that the prince has a next plan."
The old man from Yinshan said flatteringly.
"After some time, my true body will go to the outer world to survive the tribulation, leaving behind my incarnation to guard the palace.
However, once this king breaks through to a critical moment, the incarnated spirit will become void.
This is the time when this king is at his weakest, so you should stay in my palace.
If you encounter any trouble, help me guard the government office. "
Gu Xinghe suddenly said with a solemn expression.
"My lord, what else do you have to worry about? Is there someone else in the Southern Territory who will be unfavorable to you?"
The old man from Yinshan frowned and pinched his hands, his expression suddenly turned serious.
"Could it be said that there are still some remnants of the Eternal Sword Sect?"
The old man from Yinshan said in surprise.
Gu Xinghe nodded, his eyes darkened, and sneered:
“Although this Eternal Sword Sect was wiped out by me back then, everyone was killed.
But I recently discovered that someone had concealed the secret and escaped disaster.
If I am the weakest at this moment, they will definitely take action to attack the palace and seize the Kongming Sword Mirror.
Therefore, as a last resort, I can only act like this.
In this way, the snake can be lured out of the hole and all the remnants of the past will be killed, leaving no one behind. "
"Your Majesty is really far-sighted."
The old man from Yinshan said in admiration.
"I'll leave this matter to you. In addition, my son is not very effective. The time for my breakthrough may be as short as ten years or as long as hundreds of years, so he will be left to you."
At the moment when the incarnation disappeared, Gu Xinghe warned again.
"I will obey the king's decree."
The old man from Yinshan bowed and said.
…
The more Ning walked out of the hall, his feeling became stronger and stronger.
He was certain that the Kongming Sword Mirror should be in the palace.
It's just that the palace is heavily guarded, Gu Xinghe is suppressing it, and there are so many masters. It's hard for him to take away the Kongming Sword and Mirror by himself.
If he could get the Kongming Sword Mirror, he could give up all his status as an official, and then he could devote himself to cultivation.
This matter must go through some planning. Even though this palace is strict, there are still loopholes.
Moreover, King Zhennan is about to break through and overcome the tribulation, and the power that his breakthrough will unleash is terrifying.
It is impossible for him to break through in Zhennan City. He will definitely choose to break through in the wild, on the coast of the East China Sea, or in the sky.
Gu Xinghe definitely made breakthroughs in these three places.
The most likely thing is... it should be Tianwaitian.
Previously, Princess Fengyang said that Gu Xinghe practiced the Infinite Starlight and Thousand Shadows Technique.
He also clearly felt the endless starlight on Gu Xinghe's body, as if the stars in the sky were condensed in his body.
And the best place for him to escape the tribulation is Tianwaitian.
“If Gu Xinghe were not here, there would be opportunities in the palace.
After I made some arrangements, it was possible to seize the Kongming Sword Mirror.
But an external force is still needed to pry open the palace, but where can this external force be borrowed from? "
Ning Yue frowned and made plans in his mind.
A month later, Jiang Guangzhong returned from Dongshan Ling Mine. He reported the situation of Dongshan Ling Mine to Ning Yue.
"Sir, all those soldiers died, no one was spared."
Jiang Guangzhong smiled bitterly.
Ning Yue's face turned cold and he said angrily: "How dare you be so bold?"
"They died in a mining accident a month ago, just a few days before I arrived at Dongshan Ling Mine.
It seems that someone deliberately erased all traces of this. It seems that there is also an insider in our picket department.
Otherwise, they would not have been able to beat us and completely erase these traces. "
Jiang Guangzhong gritted his teeth and said.
"We can't speculate like this now. They all know that I am investigating the Demon Slayer Army, and it is necessary to erase all traces.
It seems that by hiding my identity and going deep into the demon-slaying army, I have already alerted the enemy. "
Ning Yue said calmly.
"This matter actually has nothing to do with adults. As long as they have evil intentions in their hearts, they will definitely erase all traces of this."
Jiang Guangzhong gritted his teeth secretly.
Ning Yue waved his hand and said, "You go down first."
"By the way, you still have to be careful about Xue Heng. I recently investigated and discovered some things."
Jiang Guangzhong asked.
Ning Yue asked curiously: "What's the matter?"
"The Xue family is a very old family, as old as Wang Qiming's Wang family.
The Xue family in Linxian City is also a branch of the Xue family in Kyoto. In addition, the Xue family where Xue Heng lives is also a branch of the Xue family in Kyoto.
My lord destroyed the Xue family before, and now you have taken away the official position that originally belonged to Xue Heng. You have completely offended him. I am only afraid that Xue Heng will be detrimental to your lord. "
Jiang Guangzhong explained.
"He is also related to the Xue family in Linxian City. Do you suspect that he may be a spy?"
Ning Yue frowned.
"I don't dare to doubt it. It's better to be careful. I'm going to investigate Xu Chaozong's line now. I hope you will approve it."
Jiang Guangzhong said again.
Ning Yue nodded in approval.
A few days later, the leader of the Shinto Sect, Qi Sect, suddenly visited Ning Yue, and he also brought a young girl.
The Shinto Sect is the strongest sect in Huishan County, and he had previously entrusted Helan Chu to refine the elixir Four Symbols Guiyi Dan.
This elixir has the effect of washing away the filth of the Nascent Soul and is a healing elixir.
Also coming was Qi Ruomeng, the saint of the Shinto Sect. She put on a cold and cold face, with a look of disdain.
"I don't know what the reason why Qi Clan Master came all the way to visit me?"
Ning Yue glanced at everyone lightly.
