When the news of the coming war reached the luxurious restaurants next to Duanhai Waterfall, the idle nobleman was still drinking while admiring the graceful figure of the dancer.
Hearing the increasingly clear sounds of people panicking outside, the dancers and musicians stopped subconsciously.
This pause immediately aroused your dissatisfaction, but he did not lose his temper. He just laughed and teased:
"What are you stopping for? Don't stop the instrument. You keep dancing. Those who are running away now either have inscription ships or flying monsters. Do you also have them?"
"."
The dancer was silent for a moment and continued to dance to the music of the musician.
The skin of her slender legs was half exposed during the dance, and the graceful dance of the dancer's slender waist, paired with fine wine, seemed particularly peaceful in this war-torn city.
During the dance, the feminine man slowly opened the door and walked behind the noble master with a note in his hand.
The noble master glanced at the other party's expression, roughly guessed the result, and said with a smile:
"It seems that the Prime Minister's Office is not prepared to give the Wanxiang Sect a chance to choose freely?"
The feminine man looked a little heavy and stepped forward:
"Sir, the east part of the city has fallen."
"."
Upon hearing this, the leisurely smile on your face suddenly froze.
The feminine man then said sadly:
"The Prime Minister has launched a military attack privately without going to court. His Majesty should have another reason to use the sword."
The noble master’s brows gradually furrowed:
"Idiot, shut up. If Xu Yinhe dares to use troops, he must have evidence that can destroy the sect and a reason to use troops."
The feminine man was startled and quickly knelt down to apologize:
"Third Young Master, you are a villain who doesn't think well."
The noble prince thought for a few breaths, exhaled, waved his hands, and his tone returned to casualness again:
"Okay, get up. I remember that it has only been less than two-quarters of an hour since that person shouted. How come the city fell so quickly despite the large defensive formation?"
He said softly, handing over the small piece of paper with both hands:
"Sir, this is the general story from the Shadow Guard."
Your Majesty took it.
After reading it carefully, he let out a long sigh:
"The combat power of the Black Scale Army has actually reached such an extent. At least it is far ahead of us in terms of weapons and equipment."
The feminine man whispered:
"Sir, this was done deliberately and unintentionally. The defenders of Vientiane City did not have time to react."
The noble prince shook his head:
"Zhang Rou, it is also a strength to make them have no reaction time."
With that said, the noble master slowly stood up, walked step by step to Changxian, walked to the window and looked up at the huge black eagle still hovering in mid-air:
"The people in the Xuan Ying Pavilion are so ruthless. Master Wanxiang just attacked the city without saying a word. Tsk tsk."
After all,
The noble master put his legs on the window sill and was about to jump down.
The feminine man was startled when he saw this:
"Sir, what is this?"
"Of course he ran away. Are he just waiting here to die?"
The noble master took it for granted, with a hint of helplessness: "Someone in the Wanxiang Sect knew that I was coming, and I came here secretly. The city is in such chaos now, and the man in the sky is so ruthless. No one would know if he killed me by accident. "
"." A feminine man.
News of the fall of Vientiane East City quickly spread throughout the city through various channels.
Although the Vientiane defenders were only second-line troops trained in martial arts schools and were not elite, no one could have imagined that the Vientiane defenders would still be defeated so quickly under the cover of the city defense formation.
The Master of Wanxiang Sect and the Great Elder also failed to think of it.
Fortunately, the Black Scale Army did not go deeper after capturing the East City, and instead began to organize and maintain the chaotic order in the city.
There was silence in the Xuanyin attic,
Xu Xinyao stood aside and said nothing, looking cool.
The young man sat alone on the soft couch, and the two old men knelt on the futon, without any dissatisfaction on their expressions.
Xu Yuan slowly poured a glass of wine for each of the two old men in front of him and pushed it over:
"Two seniors, the junior was washing and dressing just now, so he was a little slow."
Saying,
Xu Yuan paused and said meaningfully:
"The Black Scale Army came as planned. I forgot the time and didn't send a letter, so they started the first phase of the operation directly. I hope you two seniors don't mind."
"."
Master Wanxiang's expression did not change at all, his tone became much more polite, no longer gloomy, and he said with a smile:
"Young master, you can concentrate on your work and not be disturbed by external things. This little old man will naturally understand."
Xu Yuan smiled when he heard this. It seemed that anyone could do such a thing as licking someone.
After a pause, Master Wanxiang asked hesitantly:
"I just don't know what the first stage the young master just mentioned is..."
Xu Yuan replied with an unabashed smile:
"In fact, the plan is very simple. The first stage is from point to line, the second stage is from line to surface, and the third stage."
After saying this, Xu Yuan smiled meaningfully and did not continue.
"."
Master Wanxiang's expression was calm and unmoved.
Xu Yuanze just smiled warmly and said:
"Senior, don't be nervous. The next phase of the plan should start in about two hours. We still have time."
Master Wanxiang smiled slightly, raised his hand and took a sip of wine:
"Two hours?"
Xu Yuan did not respond when he heard the words, rubbed his brows, and said with some distress:
"Look at my memory, I can't remember it clearly. It seems like it was an hour later, right?"
After a pause,
Xu Yuan glanced sideways at Xu Xinyao and asked:
"Xiao He, how long are we scheduled to come?"
"."
Xu Xinyao closed her mouth tightly, still looking cool, without any intention of speaking.
Xu Yuan frowned when he saw this, and his voice became stern:
"Xiaohe?!"
At this moment, Master Wanxiang suddenly spoke:
"The name of the young master's maid is the same as that of my daughter. This can be regarded as fate."
Xu Yuan raised his eyebrows and said coldly to Xu Xinyao: "I'll take care of you when I get down."
After saying that, Xu Yuanchuan changed his expression as if in a dramatic manner, looked at Wanxiang Sect Master and said with interest:
"Oh? It's the same name. I'm a little curious. Can you recommend me, senior?"
Master Wanxiang coughed lightly:
"Xiao He has been busy recently. If this matter is over, and the young master would like to come to my Wanxiang Sect as a guest, that is certainly possible, but let's talk about business now."
When the request was rejected, Xu Yuan frowned, leaned on the soft couch behind him, and crossed his legs:
"I'm very curious. If you can't introduce me, then we can talk about it another day?"
Looking at the boots dangling in front of his eyes, Master Wanxiang took a deep breath and kept smiling:
"Young Master is curious, this is my little girl's honor."
After saying that, his energy surged, and a sound transmission was shot out by him, crossing the window edge and shooting towards the gate of Wanxiang Mountain.
Xu Yuan laughed when he saw this:
"Senior Su Wen is so forthright, and now he is really direct when we see him. Let's talk about business. Let me get started first."
The Master of Wanxiang Sect was slightly silent after hearing this, carefully considering his words, and whispered:
"Young Master, there should be some misunderstanding between our Wanxiang Sect and your mansion. I wonder what the Young Master needs before he is willing to withdraw his troops?"
"retreat?"
Xu Yuan's eyes narrowed. He was not satisfied with what the other party called "business".
Until now, the other party is still avoiding talking about Shengshan County.
But after thinking about it, I felt relieved.
The political consciousness of these infighting experts is generally very high.
Talking about Shengshan County is tantamount to a death penalty, but not talking about it is just leaving some room.
After a moment of pause, Xu Yuan still chose to follow:
"What kind of retreat strategy?"
Before Master Wanxiang could speak, he listened:
"Sir, when the army comes, it is the people who suffer. The lives of the three million people in Vientiane City depend on your thoughts."
The great elder's voice was pitiful.
Xu Yuan frowned.
Seeing this, the great elder changed his tone:
"The Prime Minister's Mansion helped my Wanxiang Sect practice military warfare. Now that the matter is over, our Wanxiang Sect can compensate your government's military expenses and take away five million taels of silver to express our gratitude. Pay now."
"."
Xu Yuan raised his eyebrows but did not speak immediately.
He suddenly understood what the two old men meant.
We don't want you to hand over substantive evidence. You can take the money and leave. We won't go to the court. Everything is agreed upon by everyone.
but,
Five million taels of silver
According to the price of goods in this world, converted into the previous life, it was probably close to 7.5 billion, which is already an astronomical figure for an individual.
Such a large amount of money can be taken out as soon as possible. These sects are really rich after thousands of years of accumulation.
Seeing that Xu Yuan didn't speak for a long time, the Wanxiang Sect Master beside him drank wine and added in a low voice:
"Young master has traveled thousands of miles to come here after a long journey. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the Shenguang Chamber of Commerce with 70% of its shares."
"."
Xu Yuan almost laughed out loud when he heard this.
Seventy percent of the shares, seventy percent of the shares, was basically equivalent to giving him the Chamber of Commerce.
But was this old man bribing him?
The Chancellor's Mansion will most likely belong to him from now on. Are you going to use this to test the cadres?
If it were another person, he might really not be able to withstand this test, but he...
Just as he was thinking this, Xu Yuan's thoughts suddenly stopped.
He realized that the old man was not bribing him.
Because of his cultivation.
His cultivation level, Wanxiang Sect Master, could tell that it was impossible for a sixth-grade cultivation level to swallow such a large sum of money silently.
Even if it could be swallowed, it would be impossible to digest it.
And if he has a superior, he must be Xu Yinhe's confidant.
In other words, these two old men actually wanted to get in touch with the Prime Minister's Mansion through this method.
It’s been more than a day or two since the Tian’an Chamber of Commerce in the Prime Minister’s Office wanted to enter Xizezhou. I’ll open an opening for you to come in. Anyway, the Shenguang Chamber of Commerce is half dead. You can use the name of the Shenguang Chamber of Commerce to expand.
You have high-quality supplies and enough money to open up the market, and I have connections. I will cover it for you, and I can use the various trade routes and networks I run for you.
More importantly, with the name of Shenguang Chamber of Commerce, there is no need to pay taxes, and it will not be blocked by other local forces.
And once it starts operating, I, the Wanxiang Sect, can also take a share of the pie.
Let's all sit down and share the money together. Why should we fight to the death for those 200,000 untouchables? Isn't it nice for everyone to make money together and share the dividends together?
Thinking of this,
Xu Yuan sighed in his heart and raised his glass. He did not agree or refuse, but he looked at each other and smiled at the sect leader:
"The sect master is so courageous. Come on, have a drink."
After that, the three of them laughed and drank a drink.
"howl--"
An eagle cry sounded at this moment,
Someone outside wants to climb into the attic.
Xu Yuan raised his eyes and said with a smile:
"It seems that the sect master's daughter is here. Judging from the sect master's appearance when he was young, he must have been graceful and graceful. Your daughter must be as beautiful as a flower, right?"
"." When Master Wanxiang heard this, his eyes suddenly condensed.
Xu Yuan saw it, but ignored him. He raised his lips slightly, got up from the soft couch and went to greet him:
"Sect Master, Great Elder, wait here for a moment, I will go to greet you."
The leader of Wanxiang Sect wanted to stop him, but was stopped by the great elder on the side. He shut up and said:
"Sect Master, the overall situation is of paramount importance. You'd better come down and persuade Xiao He. If she can maintain a relationship with this young master, it will be beneficial to the sect."
The old master of Wanxiang Sect clenched his fist slightly:
"Do you want Xiaohe to become a joker?"
The great elder’s expression remained unchanged:
"I know you had a son in your later years, but Xu Yinhe must have direct evidence for his direct attack on the city. This man is only thirty years old, and being entrusted with important tasks by Xu Yinhe is not an injustice to Xiao He."
"Why don't you let your granddaughter go?!" Master Wanxiang looked calm, but his voice was suppressed with anger.
"If the young master likes it, why not?" The elder lowered his eyes and replied calmly while drinking, "If the young master is interested, he can let Zhaohua serve him."
Zhaohua, the great elder got his wife.
"."
Master Wanxiang glanced at the great elder coldly, but in the end he chose to keep silent.
Arriving on the deck, Xu Yuan once again saw Zhou Xiaohe, the big bear loli. She had changed into a palace attire, her hair was tied up, but her figure was still hard to hide.
Looking at each other, Xu Yuan waved his hand to signal the accompanying people to get out, and then said with a smile:
"Miss Xiaohe, your father is waiting for you inside. Please come with me."
Zhou Xiaohe's eyes flashed, looking very down-to-earth and generous, and he said out of the blue:
"When you come to the Young Master's place, you will naturally obey the Young Master in everything."
Walking on the spacious deck, Xu Yuan asked casually:
"I heard that Miss Xiaohe always travels with a rather dull person when she travels around the world?"
"Young master, are you talking about Li Zhu?"
"It seems to be that name." Xu Yuan nodded.
Zhou Xiaohe's eyes darkened for a moment:
"He passed away a few days ago. He died in the wave of monsters while fighting to protect Shengshan County."
"."
Hearing this, Xu Yuan paused slightly.
Seeing this, Zhou Xiaohe whispered:
"Master?"
"A little surprised."
Xu Yuan calmed down and said truthfully: "People who are loyal to death are admirable."
Although I only met him twice, Li Erzhu was indeed someone who could do such a thing.
After all, he was a "fool" who traveled thousands of miles to the border when there was a wave of monsters in order to eliminate monsters and protect the people.
"." Zhou Xiaohe lowered his eyes.
Looking sideways at Zhou Xiaohe's sad face, Xu Yuan suddenly asked:
"Miss Xiaohe, do you know why Shengshan County came into being?"
Zhou Xiaohe's figure suddenly trembled, but then he smiled calmly and said:
"Sir, why are you getting up?"
She has to think about the sect.
Xu Yuan looked into her eyes and said word by word:
"Because your Wanxiang Sect wants to massacre the city and create ghost fog."
Zhou Xiaohe frowned, cupped his fists and said:
"Sir, what do you mean by this? The sect only funded Shengshan County a few days ago."
"Are you sure?" Xu Yuan interrupted, with a strange look in his eyes.
Zhou Xiaohe was puzzled, but his tone was very firm:
"Sir, I don't understand what you are talking about."
"."
Xu Yuan's eyes instantly softened, as if he were looking at a deceased person again:
"It's just a joke, don't take it seriously."
While talking,
He directly put his arm around Zhou Xiaohe's shoulders and said softly:
"Xiao He, I'm a little drunk."
"."
Zhou Xiaohe's body trembled slightly, but it was regarded as acquiescence.
The two of them walked into the attic where there were many restrictions, without speaking.
Walk into the wing,
Seeing Xu Yuan holding his daughter in his arms, Master Wanxiang's breath stagnated subconsciously, but he remained silent.
Xu Yuan looked at his expression, smiled slightly, and gently brushed Zhou Xiaohe's delicate face with his fingers on the woman's shoulders:
"Sect Master, do you love your daughter very much?"
The sect leader did not say a word. The great elder chuckled and said:
"The sect master got a daughter late, so naturally he feels distressed."
"That's it."
Xu Yuan nodded and smiled, but the smile was cold.
Then,
"Puch!"
With the power accumulated by the saint's remnant soul, a sharp blade suddenly penetrated Zhou Xiaohe's slender body and broke her heart.
Almost at the same time,
"Buzz——"
The majestic source energy suddenly erupted in the narrow wing, and the leader of Wanxiang Sect could not suppress his anger:
"you wanna die!!!"
But the next moment,
"boom!"
There was a muffled sound,
The special wooden floor collapsed directly, and the leader of the Wanxiang Sect was pinned to the floor by the great elder on the side.
Seeing this scene, Xu Yuan slowly pulled out the Qingyu Sword, gently laid Zhou Xiaohe flat on the floor, and said softly:
"Okay, stop playing the double act. The sect leader has been in the mortal world for more than thirty years. How could he suddenly be suppressed by the great elder who has only been in the mortal world for half a year?
Saying,
Xu Yuan slowly walked past the two of them, walked back to the soft couch and sat down.
When he turned back his eyes, the double act was over. The Wanxiang Sect Master seemed to have teleported to the dying Zhou Xiaohe. Blood gurgled out from the corner of Zhou Xiaohe's mouth. The Wanxiang Sect Master used his powerful cultivation to forcibly kill the splendid Zhou Xiaohe. Continue your life.
Even if your heart is broken, there is still hope in this world.
However, Xu Yuan looked at the Wanxiang Sect Master, whose eyes were splitting, and uttered two desperate words:
"Stop."
"." Master Wanxiang ignored him, with a look of guilt on his face for forcing his daughter to live.
Xu Yuan spoke softly:
"The deep love between father and daughter is really touching, but if you don't stop, I will let the Black Scale Army directly massacre the clan."
Master Wanxiang looked up, his old face was filled with tears:
"Sir, what do you mean?"
Xu Yuan stared at him with faint eyes:
"Eight thousand three hundred and fourteen."
"What?"
"Two hundred and seventy thousand."
"Young Master, I have something to say." The great elder suddenly spoke at this moment. He knew that the sect master had reached the limit of his explosion.
Hearing this, Xu Yuan raised the wine bottle in front of him, poured a glass, and said slowly:
"The former is the Shengshan border troops who died to protect the people of Shengshan, and the latter is the approximate number of Shengshan people who died at the mouth of monsters."
"Boom!"
Xu Yuan slammed the wine bottle in front of him, raised the wine glass and sprinkled it on the ground:
“Each of them has their own family;
"Lord Sect Master,
"Do you feel the emotions of their loved ones now?"
Master Wanxiang was stunned for a moment, then smiled with red eyes:
"You... just for a bunch of untouchables?!"
"."
Xu Yuan sighed, without arguing, silently took out a stable lens from the Sumeru Ring, held it in his hand, and repeated:
"Stop."
After a pause,
Xu Yuan grinned and said softly:
"certainly,
"Sect Master, you can also try to kill me."
