On the other side, in the sky above Qingyuan City.
Xu Yue left, taking away the members of the Xiao organization, as well as many powerful people from the Ten Thousand Flower Valley, Jianfeng, and the Lan family, leaving most of the world empty in an instant.
Only the oath filled with hatred still echoed over the city and lingered for a long time.
Duan Wuya and his entourage were silent and stood quietly. Xuan Ling, Dao Xuanzi and others did not leave either. Their expressions were ugly and they lowered their heads, wondering what they were thinking.
Zuo Yuanzi and Zuo Qingxuan looked at each other, and then the former came to the crowd and bowed with a smile: "Fellow Taoists, Qingyuan Immortal Kingdom can survive this time, thanks to your strong support! Now that the villains have retreated, please go into the city and have a talk."
"You're welcome, Fellow Daoist Zuo, please."
Everyone came back to their senses, and under the leadership of Zuo Yuanzi, headed towards Qingyuan City, which was filled with immortal energy.
In the city, as the security was lifted, citizens began to walk out of their houses one by one. They looked at the sky cautiously, and after confirming that the foreign enemies had retreated, they breathed a sigh of relief and ran around the neighbors asking for help.
The monks of the Qingyuan Immortal Kingdom also left their original strongholds one after another, following the peaks of the Tianxuan Realm of several other royal families to regain the temporarily occupied territory from all directions.
"I have long heard that Qingyuan City has outstanding people, magnificent places, and is called the best city in Tianzhou. When I saw it today, it is really extraordinary!" Cang Ao, the leader of Taigu Road, was walking in the air while accepting the respectful gazes from the whole city. , while looking at this huge and extraordinary fairy city.
"It's just a false name! Besides, if all the fellow Taoists did not sacrifice their lives to protect you today, this so-called first city in Tianzhou will only become a pile of ruins with broken tiles and broken bricks." Zuo Yuanzi thanked him again, with a relaxed attitude. Very low, as if he were the humblest of all present.
But only people of Duan Wuya's level know that the leader of the Qingyuan Immortal Kingdom in front of him is definitely not that simple!
The strength that the opponent showed just now in front of Hua Luo and Jian Xiao made Duan Wuya, the so-called "strongest person in the world," feel dignified. There is no doubt that Zuo Yuanzi is also a strong person in this ranks!
"Congratulations to the Lord of the Kingdom! Congratulations to the distinguished guests of all sects!"
Crossing the vast city and arriving at the gate of the imperial city, dozens of royal families from the Qingyuan Immortal Kingdom were already waiting here, divided into two teams and welcoming each other.
Duan Wuya, Xuan Ling and others nodded slightly and walked into the palace gate with calm steps.
In an instant, the splendid palace dazzled people's eyes, with carved beams and painted pillars, magnificent and beautiful. The corners of the eaves were like dragons swimming, and the golden scales and armor were vivid, as if they wanted to fly into the sky. On the jade pillars, there were paintings of phoenixes spreading their wings. The feathers are like a fan, lifelike, as if flying through the nine heavens.
Looking up again, the sun above the head has been replaced by a bright star river. Upon closer inspection, there are sparkling gems embedded in the ink-black dome, like the starry sky thousands of miles away.
"Sapphire immortal stone, sacred emerald, blood phoenix immortal gold, spiritual treasure red wood... my God, this palace is actually made of countless kinds of immortal gold, jade and wood!"
"Yes, no wonder that as soon as I entered this place, I felt that the spiritual energy here was extremely rich. It would automatically penetrate into the human body for the monks to refine without having to absorb it at all."
"This place is so wonderful that it can be compared to ten fairy mountains in the outside world!"
"No wonder Qingyuan Immortal Kingdom can endure for a long time. With such a foundation, it deserves to be a first-class giant."
Everyone was amazed and watched all the way, and finally came to a spacious hall, where seats for tea and wine had been prepared for everyone to take a rest.
Zuo Yuanzi naturally sat on the main seat, and Zuo Qingxuan was in the next position. The old and the young picked up the goblet on the table at the same time, faced the four people and said: "Thank you again to all the fellow Taoists for our Qingyuan Immortal Kingdom." To rescue the siege, Qingxuan and I will do it first as a courtesy!"
The two drank it down, and the others couldn't refuse and picked up their wine glasses to drink.
"Huh?"
However, while someone was drinking, he suddenly heard a sound of surprise. Looking at the wine flowing freely in the cup, opening and closing on its own, he lost his voice and said: "This is... Hedao Divine Serum!? It is said that it can soar to the ground and realize the great path, even if it is... The divine wine is effective even at the peak of the Tianxuan Realm!"
After hearing this, some people who were still reserved immediately drank heavily, fearing that the Qingyuan Immortal Congress would take back this sacred wine. @·No mistake first~~
Sure enough, after taking the divine juice, many people's bodies immediately began to glow. Among them, the younger generation such as Qilinzi were the most affected and had the best effect. Cang Ao and other people at the top of the Tianxuan realm also experienced gains.
, it can be described as a great opportunity!
Many spiritual powers around seemed to be attracted, coming out of their own accord, surrounding everyone, rising and falling, constantly gathering and dispersing. From a distance, they looked like a Hedao flower, which was extremely magical.
"Thank you so much for the gift from the fairy kingdom!"
Everyone stood up and bowed down, happy and excited.
Zuo Yuanzi clasped his fists and said modestly: "A small profit is not a sign of respect. From now on, in our fairy country, I will ask for your help."
"Your Majesty, you are welcome. What we have done today is what every conscientious person in the Immortal Realm should do."
"Yes, it is not easy to establish the Immortal Alliance. Although Xu Yue is the center, we cannot tolerate his wanton behavior! We, it is just a simple act of justice."
Everyone present nodded frequently, making Zuo Yuanzi and Zuo Qingxuan happy.
After three drinks, the atmosphere of the banquet became more and more lively. A shrewd light flashed in Zuo Qingxuan's eyes. He suddenly picked up the drinking glass and took a sip, and then sighed heavily.
"Huh? Today is supposed to be a happy day, why does nephew Qingxuan sigh?" Xiang Chongshan, who was sitting next to him, asked curiously.
"Going back to Senior, although Xu Yue has retired today, his last words still echo in my heart... His hatred and prejudice against me are too deep. I am worried that situations like today will happen again in the future."
Hearing Zuo Qingxuan's deep voice, everyone fell silent. Obviously, the chance of this was very high.
"Oh, what Qingxuan said is absolutely true."
Zuo Yuanzi understood, took over the words, and took this opportunity to complain to the major giants: "Xu Daoyou is upright and has a stubborn mind. Once he decides on something, it is difficult to change... What's more important is that he is in the Immortal League. The power here is still too great."
After the words fell, the entire hall fell completely silent, and the atmosphere became obviously much colder. Although many people nodded slightly, they did not agree. It was more like being polite and sat down silently.
They are all smart people, and there are even old foxes among them. How could they not understand the implication of Zuo Yuanzi's words?
This is to seize Xu Yue's power.
"I say Lord Zuo."
Sure enough, someone immediately raised an objection. It was Xuan Ling who put Chang Ge aside and sat in his seat. Update without error@
I saw the general playing with the wine glass, looking at the fairy wine in the cup, and said slowly: "I hope you don't misunderstand. This time we stopped Xu Yue, we just upheld justice and safeguarded the integrity of the Immortal Alliance. Stability is not about forming an alliance with your Qingyuan Immortal Kingdom and targeting someone together... The previous conflict between Benjiang and Xu Yue outside the city was just a temporary dispute. For the Immortal Domain, Xu Yue is still extremely important. , an irreplaceable existence! I hope you won’t have any evil thoughts at this time to avoid internal strife.”
"This... what the general said is true, I have learned from you."
Looking at Xuan Ling, whose eyes were sharp and serious and threatening, Zuo Yuanzi immediately apologized with a guilty look on his face, but his heart was extremely gloomy.
"Are you still too impatient?"
Zuo Yuanzi whispered, changed his strategy, and prepared to smooth things over and bring up this sensitive topic.
Unexpectedly, someone on the side spoke up at this juncture.
And it’s a voice that supports him!
"Fellow Daoist Xuan's words are wrong. In my opinion, Fellow Daoist Zuo's concerns are not unfounded. We really need some countermeasures against Xu Yue."
The atmosphere that had finally eased became stiff again. Everyone turned their heads and looked at the expressionless Master of the Mutian Divine Sect with a surprised look on his face.
"Duan Wuya? Okay! It seems that all our previous remarks have had some impact on him!"
Zuo Yuanzi was communicating quickly with Zuo Qingxuan through voice transmission, but there was an embarrassed expression on his face. He looked at Xuan Ling and Duan Wuya, who were silently confronting each other, and hesitated to speak.
It seems that as the masters, they are caught in the middle and have trouble making choices.
"You two, please give me some face. Peace is the most precious thing."
Finally, Zuo Yuanzi decided to leave in person, walked between the two of them, and bowed to each other. Xuan Ling and Duan Wuya both moved away from each other and stopped tit-for-tat.
"So according to what Sect Master Duan said, how should the Immortal Alliance deal with Xu Yue?" Xuan Ling asked.
"Disposal is out of the question, but as I just said, it's time to take some countermeasures." Duan Wuya replied quietly.
.
"How to counterattack?" Xuan Ling frowned.
Duan Wuya stood up, looked at dozens of different eyes, and said in a deep voice: "The importance of Xu Yue is self-evident. He is always the most powerful weapon to face demons externally. We also need His leadership...but actually internally, this is not the case."
Listening around, Duan Wuya paused, and then said: "Actually, Xu Yue is not strong alone. This has been the case from a hundred years ago to now. What is truly terrifying about him is his terrifying appeal and the surrounding people. A group of people around him! Among these people, there are giant sect leaders and successors of various sects. They all obey Xu Yueyan. Just like today, he can easily incite Jianfeng and Wanhua Valley to cross the Immortal Alliance. Attacking the Qingyuan Immortal Kingdom...this was without Mu Chuxuan Shangjun and others using the power behind them."
After hearing this, everyone looked solemn and began to think deeply.
If today, Yidi Mountain, Three Thousand Sword Sect and other sects also come to Qingyuan Immortal Kingdom, what will be the outcome?
I'm afraid they can't drink and have fun here.
This is not alarmist. Don’t forget, the Qianli River in Beihai is also planning to come this time, but it is just delayed by the long journey!
"So, what does Brother Duan mean?" Bai Ling tapped his fingers on the table.
Duan Wuya didn't hold back anymore and said directly: "I think the first thing is that Xu Yue's right to mobilize troops should be cancelled, and the actions of all the giants in the Immortal Domain should be taken back and managed by the Immortal Alliance!"
After the words were finished, whispers suddenly broke out on the scene, and many people were communicating secretly to discuss the feasibility of this proposal.
"We, the Qingyuan Immortal Kingdom, agree!" After a few breaths, Zuo Yuanzi took the lead in speaking out. @
"I, Tai Zong, agree."
"The Emperor Demon Sect agrees."
"Haitiancheng agrees."
Afterwards, one by one the giants expressed their stance, but the War God Temple headed by Xuan Ling did not respond.
"I still feel... inappropriate."
Finally, the general shook his head and said slowly: "Xu Yue's right to mobilize troops is the basic condition for the existence of the Immortal Alliance. Many actions in the salvation plan are top secret. Often the giants in the Immortal Realm who carry out these actions are not aware of it. Why do you want to do this... If you take power back to the central government, as you said, wouldn't Xu Yue want to tell the whole story about the salvation plan, and then the Immortal Alliance will decide whether to order it to be implemented? Not to mention whether he is willing to do this, in this way , the plan will inevitably be blocked and difficult to advance, and there are too many ways for the demons from outside the territory to learn about Xu Yue’s plan and respond accordingly."
After Xuan Ling finished speaking, many giants immediately shuddered, calmed down a lot, and no longer blindly supported Duan Wuya's proposal just now.
After all, fighting against demons is the established strategy of the Immortal Realm at the moment, and other things should be compromised for this purpose.
"Seniors, how about this?"
In the dull atmosphere, a young voice sounded. Everyone turned their heads and saw that it was Zuo Qingxuan.
"Xu Yue's power cannot be touched. Even if we, the Qingyuan Immortal Kingdom, are the victims of this incident, we will firmly support him."
Zuo Qingxuan first set up an arch to express his righteousness, then changed the subject and said: "But the safety of the sect is at stake, so we have to be cautious, so I thought, why not reach an agreement secretly and let some giants keep an eye on those possible What about the arrogant forces? In this case, even if Xu Yue frantically gathers troops and launches an attack next time, all of us will have a chance to respond. "
"This is not an option. Our Mutian Divine Sect can keep an eye on Yidi Mountain." Duan Wuya glanced at Zuo Qingxuan and smiled kindly.
"I, Tai Zong, just keep an eye on the Three Thousand Swords Sect."
"Same as the Emperor Demon Sect."
"Then I, Taigu Dao, will guard against mirages."
"Pingtianju can monitor Hudao Mountain."
"Qianli River should still be handed over to me, Haitian City."
The giants responded quickly one after another, which made Xuan Ling's face look a little ugly.
"Aren't you just signing an offensive and defensive alliance privately?" Xuan Ling asked with a dissatisfied tone.
"Fellow Daoist Xuan."
Zuo Yuanzi quickly bowed and advised earnestly: "Only in this way can our sects survive safely in the Immortal Realm without having to worry all the time! This is also extremely important to the stability within the Immortal Alliance."
"this.
…”
Hearing this, Xuan Ling hesitated, and Ling Zhan, Dao Xuanzi and others on the side also looked thoughtful.
Finally, the person in charge of the Immortal Alliance seemed to have made a decision. He picked up the wine glass, drank the remaining half of the Hedao divine liquid in one gulp, and said in a daze: "I am drunk, and the God of War will not participate. Any alliance, of course, I will not be able to hear what you said today..."
Zuo Yuanzi was overjoyed and shouted hurriedly: "Yes, yes! This drink is very intoxicating. I hope fellow Taoist Xuan Ling will drink it slowly! Qingxuan! Why don't you go and get the Nine Apertures Ten Thousand Stars Fruit from the royal family's inner room! Give it to Xuan Ling Zero War will sober up!”
The Nine-Aperture Ten Thousand Stars Fruit is also an unparalleled treasure. It has nine holes on the surface, each of which is different from the other. Its skin is like a star. It can allow people to enter the Taoism at a glance. If you swallow it, it can change your fate against the will of heaven and create a divine body!
"Qingxuan obeys your order!"
Zuo Qingxuan could not hide his joy at this time. He secretly clenched his fists hidden in the sleeves of his green clothes and left quickly.
However, before he could reach the door, a royal family member from the Qingyuan Immortal Kingdom came running in panic.
"Report, report to the Lord!"
The young royal was about to continue speaking, but he saw the big bosses of the first hall looking at him at the same time. The strong oppression made him stunned and froze in place. @*~~
"There are no outsiders here. Why don't you tell me what's important?" Zuo Yuanzi seemed a little dissatisfied with this man's gaffe. After waving his sleeves, he shouted in a deep voice.
"Serve the Lord!"
The young royal immediately came to his senses and took out an invitation.
"Xiao organized Xu Yue to send out invitations. In one month, he and Lan Ruyan, the daughter of the Lan family, will get married on Thirty-Third Mountain!"
In an instant, the hall was silent, and Xuan Ling was more than half awake from his wine. .
