"Old Liu, Second Brother treats you with sincerity. Don't try to trick Second Brother!"
"Let's do this. For the sake of your close friendship with An Xi, let them produce five grandmasters, and I can forget about this."
"Five?!"
Ning Xun jumped up all of a sudden, and said with a look of pain on his face: "Second brother, there are only three masters of the Dark Assassin. Even if you kill them with a wave of your hand, they can't come up with five!"
"How about this? How about I recruit another person from my palace to gather four for them?"
"If it still doesn't work, I won't be able to help you. I can only let my second brother defeat them!"
"Well...just four people!"
Ning Fan waved his hand grandly and grabbed Ning Xun's hand with a kind look on his face: "Sixth brother, you are really my second brother's treasure house. You can always help me at every critical moment!"
"The second brother is joking. The younger brother and the second brother are brothers. What's mine belongs to the second brother. What difference do you and I have between brothers?"
"Since the sixth brother said this, the second brother won't be polite to you anymore!"
Ning Fan patted Ning Xun on the shoulder and said softly: "Now, most of Dayu's soldiers and horses are guarding the border. Sixth brother, the second brother has no soldiers under his command. You first transfer your Dongxun army to Tieniu. City, how about helping second brother stabilize the situation?"
"Dongxun Army..."
Ning Xun had a smile on his face, thinking that his mother was cheating, and as expected, the second child had already figured out his trump card!
First it was the secret assassination, and then it was the Dongxun Army. Will it be the next one...?
"Second brother, younger brother... I suddenly feel a little unwell, please take a step back!"
"Well, go ahead!"
"However, the Dongxun Army will arrive at Tieniu City within three days!"
Watching Ning Xun leave in embarrassment, Ning Fan's lips curled up slightly. He really liked Lao Liu so much. Although he liked to hide and tuck her away, he never did anything wrong and did not do anything arrogant at all.
He can even squeeze out toothpaste at a critical moment. Who wouldn't like such a good brother?
…
An inn in Tieniu City.
The entire inn was directly occupied by a generous owner, and it was a spacious first-class room.
Several old men gathered together, including the eight masters who were seriously injured at the city gate. They all had gloomy faces and were silent to each other.
"Everyone!"
"Ning Fan has put aside his arrogance and wants to ride out the rivers and lakes to destroy the Taiyuan Sect. What do you think?"
"Haha, it's just Shuzi's arrogant words."
"Where's Taichi Sect?"
As soon as this statement came out, everyone fell into a long silence again.
"Hmph, I never believe that a mere secular dynasty can be my enemy in the entire world!"
"Nowadays, the second prince Ning Fan single-handedly controls Dayu's court. In this case, we will just let them fight among themselves."
"What does Mr. Gu mean?"
"Crown Prince Dayu has not yet been established. We will support the other princes to compete for the position of the East Palace!"
As soon as the old man known as Mr. Gu finished speaking, the eyes of the people around him also shone with a glint of light.
"This is a great plan!"
"In this case, our major sects might as well send people to contact the princes of Dayu first!"
"Third Prince Ning'an will be handed over to Ye Dao Villa!"
"The fourth prince, Ning Shu, will contact us at Baishengshan."
"The fifth prince Ning Xuan seems to be a member of the Jianghu, but I don't know what sect he belongs to. The sixth prince Ning Xun is weak and has no ambitions. There is no need to waste your time on this person!"
"As for the Seventh Prince Ning Yu, Brother Jian, how about leaving it to your Jian Zong?"
The fifth elder of the Sword Sect shook his head slightly and sighed: "My young master died at the hands of King Yong. I have already sent someone to report this matter to the sect."
"My Jian Zong is far away in Jiu'an Mountain. Even if Dayu can't touch us, Jian Zong won't go through this muddy water!"
"However, Ning Fan's son has cut off my inheritance, and our Sword Sect must seek an explanation!"
"Everyone, please be careful when you act!"
"I'll take my leave first!"
After finishing speaking, Jian Nanxu slightly cupped his hands and stood up to leave.
The white-haired General Gu cast his gaze on Jin Yuan of Taiyuan Sect: "Brother Jin, how about the seventh prince handing it over to your Taiyuan Sect?"
"Mr. Gu, now that Ning Fan threatens to destroy our sect, he will definitely take action."
"I am also going to lead my disciples back to the sect. Jue Tian died here. No matter what, I have to go back to the sect first and consult the sect master before discussing!"
"That's fine!"
Everyone nodded slightly to show their understanding. After Jin Yuan said goodbye and left, everyone present also reached a consensus.
"Everyone, Ning Fan is protected by that drunken swordsman. We can't touch them. But as far as I know, there are no masters in the Imperial City of Dayu!"
"Why not, first get some interest back from the people around him!"
"That's fine..."
——
"What did you say?"
"Yue'er, did Dayu's King Yong and his party save your life?"
"Exactly!"
After Leng Xuanyue met with the third elder, she told them everything they encountered along the way. Miao Shuiqing was also a bit surprised when she heard this.
"Unexpectedly, they actually asked the black prisoners to take action."
"Thanks to His Highness King Yong this time, otherwise, Yue'er, you may be in bad luck."
"However, this King Yong is indeed a hero of the previous generation, and he dared to kill the son of the Taiyuan Sect Master and the successor of the Sword Sect. It seems that the Emperor Yu's court is really preparing to attack Jianghu!"
"Aunt Qing, does Dayu really dare to be an enemy of the entire world?"
"hehe!"
Miao Shuiqing smiled, with a hint of wisdom in her eyes: "Why don't you dare, Yue'er, never underestimate the secular dynasty!"
"Before the founding of the country, they were the most powerful clan in this land. After the founding of the dynasty, they occupied one-fifth of the Central Plains!"
"With their heritage of more than a hundred years, how can they compete with just one sect or one sect?"
"Since ancient times, our Jianghu sect has relied on its own aloofness and looked down on the common people. But in the final analysis, no matter whether it is a master or a great master, he is only a mortal after all."
"Is it still worthy of a million-strong army of a secular dynasty?"
"Besides, the Five Kingdoms of the Central Plains have ruled this land for hundreds of years, and how many talented and wise men have gathered together. Whether it is overt methods or secret calculations, how can we, who are dedicated to cultivating, be their opponents who specialize in playing dirty tricks?"
"Obviously, although there are only a few grandmasters in each country, I can surmise that the court of any of the five Central Plains countries will never have less than twenty grandmasters!"
"Even worse than that!"
Hearing Miao Shuiqing's words, Leng Xuanyue also looked surprised. This was the first time she heard such novel remarks.
"Yue'er, Aunt Qing is asking you, is the sword master next to King Yong really able to defeat the eight great masters with one sword?"
"Absolutely true!"
Leng Xuanyue nodded solemnly. Recalling the sword, she felt a little more frightened. She said in a deep voice: "Aunt Qing, I saw that sword with my own eyes. If Senior Qi from Qitian Palace hadn't done it, I’m afraid it’s rumored that the eight great masters were defeated with one sword!”
"But it's so true. After that sword knocked away the eight great masters, he punched Senior Qi hard, and they were evenly matched!"
"hiss!"
Miao Shuiqing's face was full of shock, and she murmured softly: "With the level of a master, he can crush the eight great masters with one sword, and punch the great master with one punch. There is such an amazing and talented person in the world!"
"He is truly a gift from heaven!"
"Yue'er, now you have a fateful relationship with His Highness King Yong. You must firmly grasp this relationship."
"If King Yong is really useful in getting my Hanyue Sect, he will definitely help us, and the sect will also give us strong support!"
"Aunt Qing, no need..." Leng Xuanyue said with some embarrassment: "The fact that King Yong saved my life is Yue'er's private matter. How can I have the nerve to let the sect repay the favor for me!"
"Ahem!"
Miao Shuiqing looked at the innocent girl and coughed lightly, "Yue'er, I didn't ask you to be friends with King Yong to repay your life-saving grace!"
"But, King Yong is a person worthy of my Hanyue Sect's efforts to make friends with."
"King Yong wants to rectify the world at this time, which is an opportunity for me, Hanyue Sect!"
“It’s easy to add icing on the cake, but it’s difficult to provide help when it’s time!”
Seeing the emotion on Miao Shuiqing's face, Leng Xuanyue suddenly changed her expression and said: "Aunt Qing, to be honest with you, King Yong really has something to ask me, but it is difficult for Xuanyue to decide on this matter. , I dare not agree easily!"
"oh?"
"You girl, you are so confused!"
"Now our Hanyue Sect is being squeezed out by the major sects in Duanxuan Mountain. If we can rely on Dayu's court, we will be a powerful foreign aid!"
"Would King Yong need your help for anything? This is clearly His Highness showing you kindness!"
Miao Shuiqing looked at her saint with a bit of hatred, "Oh, this girl is still too inexperienced!"
He didn't have a good grasp of these people's feelings and was not aware of His Highness's potential intentions.
"Fortunately, you came to see me."
“Fortunately, it’s not too late to remedy the situation.”
"Girl, go see His Highness King Yong quickly and agree to whatever conditions he proposes."
"But, Aunt Qing, His Highness King Yong wants to..."
Leng Xuanyue was a little embarrassed to say it. This treasure map was the sect's most important treasure. For this treasure map, Hanyue Sect sacrificed several lives and was even chased by black prisoners along the way.
Is it so easy to give it up now?
"Does he want to...?"
Miao Shuiqing looked at Leng Xuanyue's nervous face and pondered for a moment, as if weighing.
"That's it!"
"Girl, since he wants it, just give it to him!"
"Aunt Qing also knows that this matter is really embarrassing, but now that he has spoken, how can he give us a reason to refuse?"
"Besides, with the power of King Yong, there are several masters accompanying him. If she uses tricks, it will be useless even if Aunt Qing follows you every step of the way!"
"For the sake of the sect, I have wronged you!"
"No grievance!" Leng Xuanyue was a little surprised to see Aunt Qing agree so easily: "Aunt Qing, then I will give it to him?"
"Girl, you've already reached this point, why are you still hesitating?"
"Hurry up and go to the sect master, I will explain to her!"
"Uh-huh!"
