In the bamboo forest where Dugu Qiubai lives.
Xiao Zhan and Dugu Qiubai had already drank several jars of wine.
Even Dugu Qiufei was already a little drunk, but Xiao Zhan was not even half drunk.
The two of them were drinking while chatting about their views on cultivating immortals.
This can be regarded as sitting down and discussing the truth.
When Dugu Ao arrived, Dugu Qiubai was asking Xiao Zhan for advice.
That’s right, I’m asking for advice.
At first, Dugu Qiubai thought that his insights into cultivating immortals were very profound.
But the longer he chatted with Xiao Zhan, the more shocked he became.
There were many questions that he couldn't figure out. Xiao Zhan could explain them clearly in two simple sentences, giving Dugu Qiubai a feeling of enlightenment.
Dugu Ao stood at the door of the yard and did not disturb the two of them.
After another hour, Gu Qiufei looked at Dugu Ao and said, "Come in."
Dugu Ao then walked into the yard, clasped his fists at Dugu Qiubai and Xiao Zhan, and then said:
"The matter is settled."
"Those forces involved will probably learn a lesson."
Dugu Qiubai waved his hand:
"You can handle these matters by yourself. You don't need to report to me."
"Are you here to see Mr. Xiao?"
Dugu Ao nodded, cupped his fists at Xiao Zhan and said:
"Senior Xiao, I invite you again. I hope you can serve as the national master of our Qingming Immortal Kingdom."
Xiao Zhan shook his head:
"Don't talk about this anymore. I'm just passing by and don't plan to stay too long."
With that said, Xiao Zhan stood up and planned to leave.
Dugu Ao sighed and handed Xiao Zhan's wine gourd to Xiao Zhan.
Xiao Zhan took the wine gourd and jumped into the sky.
Somewhere in the city.
Du Yue and the others who were shopping were suddenly lifted high into the sky by a powerful force.
Du Yue pouted and said angrily:
"Master, I saw a hairpin and I was just going to try it."
Xiao Zhan chuckled:
"Let's talk about it next time."
After saying that, Xiao Zhan and several people turned into a few streaks of light and disappeared into the sky.
High above the palace.
Dugu Qiubai saw this scene and said proudly to Dugu floating beside him:
"For a strong man like him, who has no desires or demands, is free and easy, Qingming Fairy Kingdom cannot keep him, but it is definitely right to make friends with him."
Dugu Ao nodded and sighed:
"It's just a pity. If there is such a strong person, the Blue Spirit Fairy Kingdom will have to weigh it again if it wants to provoke."
Dugu Qiubai snorted coldly:
"If the Blue Spirit Fairy Kingdom wants to provoke, then just come over."
"I seek defeat alone, and I am not a vegetarian."
After saying that, Dugu Qiubai turned into a stream of light and disappeared into the bamboo forest below.
Dugu Ao looked in the direction Xiao Zhan left, his eyes filled with regret.
He has already seen that Xiao Zhan is a stronger being than his ancestor Dugu Qiufei.
Such a character, in all fairy kingdoms, is probably someone who can walk sideways.
In a dense forest.
Xiao Zhan landed with Du Yue and others.
Then Xiao Zhan took the wine gourd, sat down on a stone, and said to Du Yue and others:
"There are some powerful ferocious beasts in this mountain range. Go and defeat those ferocious beasts without harming their lives."
Du Yue was a little confused:
"Master, since it is a ferocious beast, why not just kill it?"
Xiao Zhan chuckled:
"It's not certain whether you can defeat those ferocious beasts."
"Besides, you took the initiative to trouble others, so there is no reason to kill them."
Du Yue curled her lips and stopped talking immediately.
Liu Yong took a deep breath, then clasped his fists at Xiao Zhan, then turned around and rushed towards the depths of the dense forest.
Du Yue and others quickly followed, with Wu Nan still at the back.
About half a month later, I saw Liu Yong and others coming back in a panic.
The aura of several people was very weak, and they had varying degrees of injuries.
Because those ferocious beasts are stronger than Du Yue and others.
If it weren't for the tacit cooperation of several people and the exhaustion of various methods, they really wouldn't be able to defeat those ferocious beasts.
However, this kind of experience has indeed allowed several people to rapidly increase their combat experience, and their strength has also improved to a certain extent.
In the next period of time, Xiao Zhan found many places for Du Yue and others to practice.
Soon, Xiao Zhan and others had been in Qingming Immortal Kingdom for a year.
On this day, Du Yue and others returned to Xiao Zhan with scars all over their bodies.
After this period of experience, the strength of several people has been greatly improved.
Feeling the change in their own strength, Du Yue and others became even more excited about the training arranged by Xiao Zhan.
Now, the strength of Du Yue and others has reached the same level.
Several people have all reached the early stage of the Void Refining Realm.
Even though Liu Yong's spiritual roots were one level behind, he had still reached the early stage of the Void Refining Realm.
If we keep this pace, a few people will be able to break through to the Fusion Realm in another year.
In the Fusion Realm, if he were in the Haoyang Empire, he could already be worshiped by the royal family.
But if they were in the environment of Haoyang Empire, Du Yue and others would never be able to progress so fast.
This can reflect the huge difference in the cultivation environment between the fairy country and the mortal country.
On this day, Xiao Zhan took Du Yue and others to the border of Qingming Immortal Kingdom.
Flying over a mountain col, Du Yue and the others suddenly exclaimed.
Because in the valley ahead, there are corpses everywhere, and blood has gathered into a stream, flowing continuously in the valley.
The entire valley was dyed dark red.
Preliminary estimates suggest that at least 200,000 people died here.
Moreover, two-thirds of them were wearing the armor of the Qingming Immortal Kingdom.
When Du Yue and others saw this scene, their faces instantly turned pale.
Wu Nan frowned and said:
"Further ahead is the Blue Spirit Fairy Kingdom."
"And this is the border of Qingming Immortal Kingdom."
"It can be seen that people from the Blue Spirit Kingdom crossed the border and attacked an army from the Qingming Kingdom."
Xiao Zhan nodded calmly.
Then he looked at Du Yue and the others and said:
"After being out for so long, I plan to take you back to the Haoyang Empire to have a look."
Du Yue and Du Hao looked happy.
Although they didn't say it, they had long wanted to go back and see their parents.
Han Xiao stopped dozing off and hugged Xiao Zhan's thigh with excitement on his face.
Xiao Zhan smiled, waved his hand, and led everyone to fly high into the sky.
Liu Yong and Wu Nan looked puzzled.
Because in their opinion, there is a high possibility that a war will break out between the Blue Spirit Kingdom and the Qingming Kingdom.
According to Master Xiao Zhan's character, it is very possible to prevent this war.
But Xiao Zhan chose this time to take them back to the Haoyang Empire.
Half a month later.
Xiao Zhan took several people to the beach.
Across the ocean is the Haoyang Empire.
Xiao Zhan took out the route map he got from the leader of the Baiyu Sect, found another fishing boat, and started the return journey with Du Yue and others.
Wu Nan finally asked the doubts in his heart.
"Master, why don't you plan to prevent the possible war between the Blue Spirit Kingdom and the Qingming Kingdom this time?"
Xiao Zhan smiled:
"When you have experienced enough things, you will understand that it is impossible to fight a war between the Blue Spirit Kingdom and the Qingming Kingdom."
"In fact, if the Bai Yu Clan hadn't been behind the scenes, it would have been impossible for the Haoyang Empire and the Zhen Tu Kingdom to break out at war."
"No one is a fool. When both sides are evenly matched, the war will not break out."
Du Yue and others nodded.
Two months later.
Fishing boats appeared on the coast of Haoyang Empire.
This navigation route is indeed much safer.
Although many dangers were encountered, the fishing boat was slightly damaged.
After setting foot on familiar land, smiles appeared on the faces of Du Yue and others, and they did not feel tired at all.
Another half month later, Du Yue and Du Hao finally returned home.
Xiao Zhan also returned to Xiuyuan Sect with Han Xiao, Liu Yong and Wu Nan.
Since there was no news about the sect leader Murong Xuantian crossing the sea to the Qingming Immortal Kingdom, the Xiuyuan Sect has been managed by other peak lords.
The tenth peak is still reserved for Xiao Zhan.
On the tenth peak, only Han Xiao's mother, Han Xiaoya, still lives.
As soon as Han Xiao landed on the tenth peak, he shouted loudly:
"Mom, mother, I'm back!"
The next moment, a figure flew out from the hall on the top of the mountain.
Han Xiaoya's eyes were red and she hugged Han Xiao into her arms.
Xiao Zhan nodded with satisfaction.
In such a short period of time, Han Xiaoya was able to cultivate to the realm of pill formation based on the skills she left behind, which is already considered good.
Xiao Zhan looked at Liu Yong and Wu Nan again and said with a smile:
"You can practice or go find your friends. During this period, you won't leave for the time being."
Wu Nan nodded and walked directly towards the main hall.
He has a withdrawn personality and has no other friends except Du Yue.
Liu Yong wanted to go to other peaks to visit his friends.
Xiao Zhan had no idea of meeting other peak masters.
His figure flashed, turning into a stream of light and sinking into the sky. He didn't know where he went.
So where did Xiao Zhan go?
He crossed the sea alone and came to Qingming Fairy Kingdom again.
Regarding the possibility of a war breaking out between the Qingming Fairy Kingdom and the Lanling Fairy Kingdom, Xiao Zhan misled Du Yue and others.
In fact, as soon as Xiao Zhan set foot on the territory of Qingming Fairy Kingdom, he learned that a war between the two fairy kingdoms had broken out.
In the border area between the two countries, the soldiers and people of the two countries have been engaged in extremely fierce battles.
Every moment, large numbers of people die.
The reason why Xiao Zhan didn't get involved before was because Xiao Zhan knew that with his ability, he couldn't stop the war between the two immortal kingdoms.
Although Xiao Zhan's strength can be regarded as the top powerhouse whether in Qingming Fairy Kingdom or Lan Ling Fairy Kingdom.
But it is obviously unrealistic to try to frighten two fairy kingdoms with his own power.
Another point is that the cultivation environment in the Immortal Kingdom is better. The strength of the soldiers and people in the world is not on the same level as that of the Haoyang Empire and the Zhentu Kingdom.
This makes the people of the two fairy countries stronger and more fiery.
Even if Xiao Zhan intervenes, they will continue to have wars.
What Xiao Zhan wants to do is to save those civilians as much as possible.
Those who cultivate immortality have their own path.
Since you have chosen to participate in the war, you have to bear the consequences whether it is life or death.
But the common people in both countries have no choice. They are all innocent.
So, one day, Xiao Zhan appeared in the imperial city of Qingming Immortal Kingdom, met Dugu Ao, and made a request in his own name.
That is, no matter what kind of counterattack the Qingming Fairy Kingdom takes, the civilians of the Blue Ling Fairy Kingdom are not allowed to be harmed.
Dugu Ao agreed.
Then Xiao Zhan went to the Blue Lingxian Kingdom, broke into the capital of the Blue Lingxian Kingdom, showed his strength, and forced the king of the Blue Lingxian Kingdom to agree that no matter what, he was not allowed to harm the people of the Qingming Fairy Kingdom.
Not only that, Xiao Zhan also found some like-minded people in the arena of the two countries and asked them to form a force responsible for protecting the civilians of the two countries.
Xiao Zhan never expected that this force would develop into the most powerful force in Qingming Fairy Kingdom and Lanling Fairy Kingdom in the future, and would have the absolute support of the people of the two fairy kingdoms and the people in the world.
Some people died, but not completely...
