Chapter 196
Jin Xuanya nodded excitedly:
"Thank you, Lord!"
"Don't worry, Lord, I will definitely come back within a month."
"Besides, I won't mention a word about Yanlong City!"
Xiao Zhan nodded, raised his head and shouted:
"Yuan Ye, come and see me!"
Xiao Zhan's shout instantly spread throughout Yanlong City.
Not long after, Yuan Ye rushed over and stood in front of Xiao Zhan.
"Palace Master, what do you want me to do?"
Xiao Zhan looked at Yuan Ye seriously: "I'll give you a task."
When he heard the word 'mission', the smile on Yuan Ye's face disappeared instantly, his expression became serious, his right fist was clenched, and he hammered hard on his heart.
Xiao Zhan said in a deep voice:
"Take a few brothers and accompany Jin Xuanya back to Zhenrong Country."
Yuan Ye frowned, but didn't say anything.
Xiao Zhan reminded:
"First, you must ensure that Xuanya returns to Zhenrong Country safely and meets her family safely."
"Second, you have to bring Xuanya back safely!"
"Third, when you come back, you can't be followed by anyone!"
"Fourth, no one in Zhenrong Kingdom is allowed to know the news about the Lost Land and Yanlong City."
At this point, Xiao Zhan's eyes sharpened, "Yuan Ye, you should know how serious the consequences will be once the affairs of Huangzhou are known to Zhenrong Kingdom."
Yuan Ye also realized the importance of this mission.
He thought for a moment and suddenly said:
"Palace Master, I suggest that Jin Xuanya not be allowed to return to Zhenrong Country."
Hearing this, Jin Xuanya's face turned pale, and her eyes were full of disbelief.
She and Yuan Ye... had just confirmed their relationship as boyfriend and girlfriend!
Yuan Ye continued: "It is true that Xuanya is my girlfriend, but I still don't recommend letting her go back."
Xiao Zhan also frowned:
"Let's go back."
"Just make sure that no information is leaked."
Yuan Ye frowned deeper and deeper, then nodded and said: "Okay, but I ask to send someone else to accompany you."
Xiao Zhan patted Yuan Ye on the shoulder and cursed in a dumbfounded voice:
"Since Xuanya has become your girlfriend, you must trust her."
"Also, I believe you have a sense of discretion."
After saying that, Xiao Zhan thought for a while and said:
"Then call ten more people yourself, and take Li Fanxing back to Yanlong Kingdom. She hasn't seen her father for a long time."
Jin Xuanya quickly bowed and said excitedly: "Thank you, Lord Palace Master!"
Xiao Zhan said 'hmm':
"Xuanya, I have something to say first."
"If you leak the secret, your family will be in catastrophe."
"If you come back smoothly, I will agree to let you officially join the Temple of War and personally hold the wedding for you and Yuan Ye!"
"You should know in your mind which one is more serious."
After saying that, Xiao Zhan patted Yuan Ye's shoulder again, turned around and walked towards the city gate.
Xiao Fei cried out and instantly flew out of the nearby woods and landed in front of Xiao Zhan.
Xiao Zhan jumped on Xiao Fei's back, and Xiao Fei immediately jumped into the air.
The location of the Huangzhou Treasure House.
Little Yaoyao is practicing kung fu by the pool.
She was holding a small wooden sword in her hand and was practicing her sword moves in a decent manner.
Bai Qishan stood nearby, giving advice and praising from time to time.
Suddenly, a crisp cry came from high in the sky.
Xiao Yaoyao looked up and immediately saw Xiao Fei swooping down.
"yeah!"
Xiao Yaoyao threw the wooden sword in her hand on the grass, jumped up and shouted:
"Dad, dad is here!!"
At this time, Xiao Zhan jumped off Xiao Fei's back.
He hugged Yaoyao with a smile and kissed Yaoyao on the forehead.
Bai Qishan looked at Xiao Zhan with some displeasure:
"Yao Yao is practicing her sword, can't you come later?"
Xiao Zhan smiled awkwardly, handed a box of cakes to Xiao Yaoyao, and then said to Bai Qishan:
"Senior, I have something I want to talk to you about."
Bai Qishan nodded and said to Xiao Yaoyao: "Yao Yao, you eat and continue practicing your sword. Master and your father will chat."
Xiao Yaoyao opened the pastry box and took out a piece. She ran to Bai Qishan and stood on tiptoes to feed him a piece.
Bai Qishan suddenly smiled from ear to ear, and quickly bent down to bite the pastry.
After a while, Xiao Zhan and Bai Qishan walked aside.
Xiao Zhan recounted what he experienced during his trip to Qingzhou.
After listening, Bai Qishan was immediately surprised:
"The Fantasy Sword Sect and the Famous Sword Sect were founded by our two domain lords in the Huangzhou?"
Obviously, this news shocked Bai Qishan.
"But..." Bai Qishan was a little embarrassed, "I was the one who killed the grandson of Li Lingyou, the leader of the Fantasy Sword Sect."
Xiao Zhan nodded, "Senior Bai Qishan probably doesn't know about this yet."
"Let's talk about this later," Xiao Zhan said in a deep voice:
"I now suspect that the Territory Lords of Huangzhou left more back-up plans."
"Perhaps not only Qingzhou, but the other three states may also have corresponding arrangements."
Bai Qishan was silent for a moment, nodded and said:
"Even so, you can't take too many risks when doing things. You must be cautious at all times."
"Besides," Bai Qishan asked with a frown:
"Have you found a suitable technique for pulseless body practice?"
Xiao Zhan nodded, "I asked Senior Li Lingyou about to arrive."
"I came here this time just to take Xiao Yaoyao back to Yanlong Kingdom."
Bai Qishan immediately shook his head, "Not now."
Seeing Xiao Zhan frowning, Bai Qishan explained:
"Yao Yao is already at the Saint level. Now is the time to lay the foundation. There is no time to waste."
After thinking for a while, Bai Qishan said in a deep voice:
"Either you go back to Yanlong Kingdom by yourself, or you have someone bring the exercises to your wife."
"After a period of time, when little Yaoyao enters the Qi Gathering Realm, I will agree to her regular return to Yanlong Kingdom."
Xiao Zhan thought for a while and nodded:
"Then I'll have someone take the technique back first."
After saying that, the two walked side by side towards Xiao Yaoyao.
Xiao Yaoyao seemed to want Xiao Zhan to see her sword skills. She was panting heavily, her face turned red from holding back, and she exerted all her strength on every sword strike.
Xiao Zhan smiled and clapped, picked Yaoyao up again, and praised:
"Yao Yao is awesome."
Bai Qishan sighed:
"Okay, if you don't have anything else to do, just go ahead and don't delay Yaoyao's practice."
Hearing this, Yaoyao immediately hugged Xiao Zhan's neck and looked at Bai Qishan with red eyes.
Bai Qishan wanted to say something, but didn't say it.
After a long time, Bai Qishan was speechless and said:
"Okay, Xiao Zhan, I brewed a few jars of good wine. You play with Yaoyao for a while, and I'll catch the beast and roast it. Let's have a few drinks later."
Xiao Zhan smiled and nodded.
Half a day later.
Xiaofei carried Xiao Zhan, who was slightly drunk, back to Yanlong City.
Yuan Ye and other ten members of the Temple of War happened to arrive at the city gate with Jin Xuanya and Li Fanxing.
Xiao Zhan stopped Yuan Ye, handed the "Pulseless Jue" in his arms to Yuan Ye, and warned:
"The first thing you do when you go back is to give this skill to Weiwei."
Yuan Ye nodded, "Don't worry, Palace Master, I promise to complete the mission."
After saying that, Yuan Ye and others left quickly.
Xiao Zhan originally thought of starting the retreat, but found that Xiao Fei had been crying and pointed to the woods next to him with his wings.
Xiao Zhan followed Xiao Fei into the woods and soon saw an eagle's nest with a diameter of more than fifty meters.
In the nest, three female eagles looked around with vigilance, and there were more than a dozen eagle eggs in the nest.
Xiao Zhan looked happy and quickly looked at Xiao Fei:
"Okay, Xiao Fei, you move very fast."
Xiaofei cried, his cry full of excitement.
"Xiao Fei, just stay with your wife and children. I'll go back to retreat first."
Xiao Zhan said something and walked towards Yanlong City.
Afterwards, Xiao Zhan went directly into the secret room and began to retreat.
He directly dragged several boxes of True Essence Stones and dumped them all into the secret room. He sat cross-legged on the pile of True Essence Stones and began to absorb the rich True Essence Qi inside.
Not long after, the entire secret room was filled with milky white mist of true energy.
This time, Xiao Zhan closed his eyes for a while.
Two months passed quickly.
But Xiao Zhan still didn't come out.
On this day, under the organization of other elders, 10,000 War Temple warriors have been selected.
They are about to go to Qingzhou to sow the next batch of hope for Yanlong City.
Each of them had a stern look on his face, and there was determination in his eyes as if he was ready to die.
They took off their war robes from the Temple of War and only wore individual combat bracelets and swords from the Temple of War.
At this time, these ten thousand people lined up neatly under the pyramid.
Finally, the exit at the top of the tower opened, and Xiao Zhan was still surrounded by a layer of true energy.
Not only that, Xiao Zhan's aura was countless times stronger than two months ago.
Today, Xiao Zhan has entered the Yuan Dan realm and is in the middle stage of the Yuan Dan realm.
If he hadn't been busy in Qingzhou, Xiao Zhan would have improved even faster.
Seeing Xiao Zhan, the 10,000 members of the Temple of War immediately clenched their right fists and hit them hard on the heart.
Around them, everyone in Yanlong City was watching them and Xiao Zhan.
Xiao Zhan looked solemn and did not say anything encouraging. He just asked softly:
"Are you all ready?"
Ten thousand members of the Temple of War shouted in unison:
"Ready at all the time!"
Xiao Zhan nodded, "Let's go, I'll see you off."
Hearing this, all the elders frowned.
Xiao Zhan knew what they were worried about, so he smiled and said:
"Don't worry, I won't stay in Qingzhou this time."
After speaking, Xiao Zhan ordered to the 10,000 members of the Temple of War:
"Set off!"
Ten thousand members of the Temple of War immediately lined up in two rows and walked neatly towards the city gate.
Xiao Zhan turned around and walked into the pyramid. After a moment, he put ten boxes of true essence stones on Xiao Fei's back, and then walked out of Yanlong City.
In this way, Xiao Zhan led 10,000 members of the War Temple towards the seaside.
Xiao Fei was flying slowly at high altitude, and the coercion he exuded made no ferocious beasts dare to approach.
Half a month later.
seaside.
After traveling day and night, the 10,000 members of the Temple of War were already very tired.
Xiao Zhan took them into the research base underground in the bay and asked them to adjust their status.
Afterwards, Xiao Zhan arrived at the bottom level of the base.
There is a channel with a width of more than 100 meters and a depth of more than 300 meters. Once filled with water, the submarine warship can be launched from here.
It's just that the latest type of submarine warship has not yet been developed.
Seeing Xiao Zhan coming, Yan Long walked over quickly with a group of scientists.
"Xiao Zhan, one hundred sea-crossing ships have been made."
Xiao Zhan nodded, "Is there any progress on the submersible battleship?"
Behind Yan Long, a scientist said excitedly:
"After in-depth research on sea-crossing ships, we have found a way to use the True Essence Stone with maximum efficiency."
"If nothing else happens, within three months at most, we will be able to develop a submersible warship that uses the True Essence Stone as its energy source!"
"At that time, not only will the speed be faster than the sea crossing ship, but the diving depth will also be greatly increased."
Xiao Zhan nodded: "The Yanlong Kingdom is also urgently developing the True Essence Cannon. If necessary, you can go back to the Yanlong Kingdom to exchange technical experiences."
After speaking, Xiao Zhan looked at Yan Long and said:
"Third Elder, thank you for your hard work during this time."
Yan Long shook his head, "I heard that you are going to Qingzhou again?"
Xiao Zhan nodded, "I want to send ten thousand warriors from the War Temple to Qingzhou. They don't understand the situation, and I'm afraid something might happen on the way."
Yan Long nodded, "Okay."
Time flies, and two days fly by.
In the early morning of this day, ten thousand members of the Temple of War gathered on the beach.
The members of the Temple of War who protected the research base looked at this scene with longing.
Xiao Zhan glared at them and said angrily: "Go back to your post!"
Someone shouted: "Palace Master, when can we go to Qingzhou?"
Xiao Zhan smiled angrily and said, "If you are strong, come and apply with me."
After speaking, Xiao Zhan looked at the ten thousand warriors and ordered, "Get aboard!"
The ten thousand members of the Temple of War instantly divided into a hundred square formations and boarded a hundred sea-crossing ships in an orderly manner.
After Xiao Zhan boarded the ship, he said loudly:
"The sea is extremely dangerous, so mines were specially installed on the ship."
“Whenever you encounter an emergency, you must report it as soon as possible!”
"Yes!" All the members of the Temple of War responded.
"Okay, let's go!" Xiao Zhan ordered.
At this time, Xiao Fei also flew over with three black wind eagles.
They were hovering in the air, obviously observing the situation on the sea surface.
After a while, the fleet reached full speed.
It was the first time for all the members of the Temple of War to experience such a fast ship, and curiosity was written on everyone's face.
One hundred sea-crossing boats were now arranged in a triangular array.
In the air, Xiao Fei was accompanied by three black wind eagles. Once he noticed any unusual movement in the sea, he would immediately send out a signal and the fleet would immediately adjust its direction.
But no matter how careful you are, you can't withstand the dangers in this sea.
A giant striped sea snake that Xiao Zhan had never seen before, with a body length of more than a kilometer, had already set its sights on the fleet.
Although Xiao Fei discovered it immediately and launched an attack on the giant sea snake, this sea snake was so powerful that even Xiao Fei couldn't do anything to it for the time being.
In the end, a hundred sea-crossing ships dropped mines at the same time, creating a huge explosion that scared off the giant sea snake.
This also allowed the members of the Temple of War to see what danger was for the first time.
Next, the members of the Temple of War became more vigilant.
More than ten days passed.
When Qingzhou's coastline appears in view, it means that the fleet is only a few hundred miles away from Qingzhou.
Ten thousand members of the Temple of War gathered on the deck, their eyes filled with overwhelming fighting intent.
Xiao Zhan also stood at the bow and ordered the fleet to stop. Then he looked at everyone and said in a deep voice:
"For a moment, remember our disembarkation location. These sea-crossing boats will also stay there in case you need them in case of emergency!"
"Yes!" Everyone nodded and looked serious.
As he spoke, the fleet slowly sailed towards the Qingzhou coastline.
