Chapter 2115: Troops on the border
The Yuan Xiang clan leader was very evasive and revealed very little information, so Qin Sang had no way of guessing what kind of power Ziyun Mountain was. However, since the Yuan Xiang clan leader was so cautious, Ziyun Mountain was at least not weaker than the Zhuyan clan.
According to Patriarch Yuanxiang, Master Liuli is a Taoist master, and Ziyun Mountain is most likely also a Taoist force.
"Could it be related to the Dao Court?"
It's no wonder Qin Sang has this idea. Both the Storm Realm and the Talisman Realm ascended from the Nie River to the universe, and both hide big secrets. With all these commonalities, it's hard not to connect them together.
Dao Ting ascended to the Great Thousand World and then disappeared into the secluded world, little known to the public. Could it be that, like the Storm Realm, it also fell near the Sea of Fog?
These are just Qin Sang's guesses, without any evidence. Judging from the tone of the Yuanxiang clan leader, Liuli's master is more like the successor of the Danding School.
According to what Qin Sang had seen and heard since entering the Great Thousand World, there had been no rumors within the Taoist sect of an open split between the Dan Ding School and the Fu Lu School. The disagreement between the two schools was more of an inference made by outsiders based on the differences in their cultivation philosophies.
As a fellow Taoist sect, what is the attitude of the Danding Sect towards the successors of the Daoting Sect?
The Storm Realm was originally taken care of by that person, but now it has become Qin Sang's dojo. He must carefully consider what identity he will use to face Liuli's master in the future.
His most orthodox and most impressive identity is undoubtedly that of a Taoist immortal official and a third-rank envoy of the Five Thunder Court!
At the beginning, the First Sword Servant asked Zhang Zhenjun to grant him this official position so that he could use it to intimidate others in times of crisis.
Although Dao Ting's strength has been greatly damaged and it has been in seclusion for a long time, outsiders are not clear about Dao Ting's inside story. In their opinion, the Talisman Sect is still on par with the Dan Ding Sect and is one of the top forces in the universe.
When plotting to murder a third-rank immortal official, one must consider the reaction of the talisman sect.
Today, the system of good deeds implemented by the human race of the Great Zhou and the eight heavenly states in Qianzhou is similar to the system of the Divine Court of the Dao Court, and to some extent even better.
Times have changed, and now the world is no longer as averse to the Dao Court.
Before coming to the Wuhai, Qin Sang had considered that he could use this identity when necessary.
While he was thinking, a familiar breath came from afar. It was Yuan Miao.
Yuan Miao came down and saw that the atmosphere between the clan leader and Qin Sang was not tense. His expression eased a little, and he bowed slightly, saying calmly: "I received a letter from you a while ago. It happened that the Siyou clan sent a special envoy to visit, so I planned to find out the whole story first, and then reply to you."
Qin Sang returned the greeting, "Thank you for your concern, Fellow Daoist Yuan. Clan Leader Yuan Xiang has explained the pros and cons to me. But I was reckless this time and made a big mistake. We have to bear the consequences ourselves. We dare not implicate innocent people, and we dare not let Clan Leader Yuan Xiang break the rules for us and damage the reputation of the Zhu Yan Clan."
Yuan Miao was surprised to see that Qin Sang was determined to go against the Siyou clan, and looked at clan leader Yuan Xiang.
The Yuan Xiang clan leader narrowed his drunken eyes, looked at Qin Sang carefully, stroked his long beard and said, "He is quite responsible."
Qin Sang said he dared not, "The enemy is strong and I am weak. I am not someone who does not know the importance of things. I have an unreasonable request, and I am asking for it. I wonder if Chief Yuanxiang can help me for that person's sake."
Chief Yuan Xiang took a sip of wine and said without comment: "Tell me about it."
Qin Sang said bluntly: "If the Siyou tribe does not send many experts this time, we can still barely cope with it. In addition, can you ask Chief Yuanxiang to delay the Siyou tribe's army for at least three months?"
"Three months? This is not difficult! As for the strength of the people from the Siyou clan, the ancient covenant has its own rules. As long as they don't threaten our clan, I can't do anything too much."
Chief Yuan Xiang stood up from the branch, his eyes gleaming, "Are you really sure that you don't need to avoid the sharp edge?"
Qin Sang looked solemn, cupped his hands and said, "I'd like to ask for a try!"
After learning these hidden secrets, the meaning of this battle has changed. Not only must he drive away the enemy, but he must also prove to Liuli's master that he has the strength to protect the Storm Realm and use it as a training ground!
"Good! You have courage! I will wait and see!"
Clan leader Yuan Xiang pointed the wooden stick in the air, and clouds appeared under his feet, and he flew away on the cloud.
Yuan Miao did not go with the clan leader, and said regretfully: "In times of crisis, it is not appropriate to discuss with fellow Taoists, so as not to distract them. If fellow Taoists need anything else, just let me know. I cannot help directly, but I can still do some small things, which does not count as breaking the rules."
"Drive away the great enemy, and I will have a good fight with you, fellow Taoist!"
Qin Sang appreciated the offer and promised generously, then without hesitation proposed some spiritual objects needed for the war.
Yuan Miao nodded frequently and wrote down everything.
Finally, Qin Sang remembered something, "Fellow Daoist Yuan, there is no need to go to the Changyou tribe to persuade them. Chief Minzhuo is determined to do what he wants. He must have received a promise from the Siyou tribe and there is no way he will turn back."
Maybe it was the Changyou tribe that leaked the information and lured the Siyou tribe here, but there is no point in looking into this now.
Yuan Miao sighed, "Both the Changyou and Siyou tribes have grievances against you. It is only natural for the two sides to unite. It is not appropriate for us to intervene. I hope you can understand."
After a conversation, Yuan Miao also said goodbye to Qin Sang.
After seeing Yuan Miao off, Qin Sang thought for a while and went to the North Sea alone. Soon after, he entered the Yinri Realm and came to the Xuantian Palace.
The North Sea branch is presided over by Su Nu, and Tong Lingyu, the master of Xuantian Palace, is assisting Su Nu.
Qin Sang flew over half of the Hidden Sun Realm and saw Tingxue Tower in the distance.
The terrain near Tingxue Tower did not undergo major changes due to the ascension. The peaks were all white and the air was chilly.
The Tingxue Tower formation emitted white mist that covered the mountain gate, but it could not block Qin Sang's sight.
He didn't stay in Tingxue Tower for a long time, but his memory of it was very vivid, and every scene from the wedding celebration was as vivid as if it were before his eyes.
It was a fake marriage, but it was the only wedding in his life. Until now, it is hard to tell what is true and what is false.
He appeared outside the mountain gate and immediately alarmed the monks in Tingxue Tower.
The master of Tingxue Tower was still Shixue, who was building an altar. When she received the message, she hurriedly welcomed Qin Sang into the master's hall.
"Brother-in-law is here!"
Shi Xue had a pretty smile on her face, and she didn't regard Qin Sang as a master of the Void Refining Realm at all.
She had heard a lot of rumors from Yanyue Temple.
Master Yun Xin is mature and prudent, so she would definitely not spread rumors about her junior sister.
These two may have already made their fake relationship real, but their personalities are more awkward than each other, so they haven't made it public yet.
Feelings cannot be faked. Over the years, Junior Sister has cared more about Qingyang Temple than Xuantian Palace and Yanyue Temple, and treats Li Yufu and the others as her own children.
More than once, she saw her junior sister's lonely back when no one was around. Finally, the clouds cleared and the moon appeared. After all the hard work, she was happy for the two of them.
"Brother-in-law, please take a seat. This is the wine you drank together at your wedding. Try it and see if it still tastes the same as it did back then." Shi Xue personally picked up the wine pot and poured Qin Sang a glass.
Qin Sang picked up the wine glass and tasted it carefully, but did not comment. He put down the jade cup and said, "According to convention, the tide of the filthy land should recede within the next few years."
Seeing Qin Sang talking about serious matters, Shi Xue put away her smile.
She guessed what Qin Sang really wanted to say, and said solemnly, "Junior sister said before she left that she would be back before the tide receded."
Qin Sang counted on his fingers and found that it had been more than seventy years since he returned to the Storm Realm.
The interval between each ebb of the foul air is about a hundred years, but it may also be a few years.
If it were earlier, the tide would have receded by the end of this year. If she wanted to be absolutely sure, Liuli should have returned this year.
Knowing that Liuli had a master who was an expert, Qin Sang no longer worried about her safety and was genuinely happy for Liuli that she could get this opportunity.
The Siyou clan would probably not be able to wait for Liuli to come back, and Qin Sang also wanted to resolve the matter before Liuli returned and welcome the beauty.
Qin Sang nodded and asked, "After Liuli broke through the Spiritual Transformation Stage, did you change your cultivation method?"
"Never."
Shi Xue shook her head. "Junior sister's Ice Soul Divine Light has now reached perfection and has repeatedly achieved extraordinary feats. Why is my brother-in-law asking these questions?"
"I have obtained many treasures before, some of which may be able to help Liuli."
Qin Sang explained casually, thinking to himself, that person did not ask Liuli to change his cultivation method. He didn't know whether Liuli was unwilling to change her sect, or whether that person was also a strong man who practiced the Way of Ice.
There must be a reason why Liuli is valued by the other party, and of course her own talent is also outstanding.
"My brother-in-law is so thoughtful. All my hard work is worth it," Shi Xue said with relief.
Qin Sang talked with Shi Xue for a while but didn't get any useful information. He didn't expect Liuli to be hiding so deeply. Shi Xue lived with her day and night but didn't find anything unusual.
……
Zhuyan tribe.
Move in front of the main hall.
The atmosphere was heavy and solemn.
Countless elite soldiers of the Zhuyan tribe, now fully armed and equipped with armor, lined up in front of the hall, full of murderous intent.
Countless eyes were watching the moving hall, and the interior of the hall was unusually quiet.
Suddenly, a powerful aura appeared in everyone's perception. This aura did not belong to one person, but the aura of countless people superimposed together.
It is not easy to achieve perfection; one must be an elite who has been tempered through hardships.
Feeling this momentum, the eyes of the Zhuyan soldiers lit up, as if they had met an opponent worthy of attention. They were delighted to see the prey, and without any orders, all of them burst out with momentum, and pressed forward towards the Teleportation Hall like a tsunami.
'boom! ’
Invisible waves erupted in the void, but fortunately the hall was strong enough and remained motionless.
Just as the people in the hall were about to walk out, they suddenly stopped. The number of people that could be moved by the formation each time was limited, and the people who came were certainly not as many as the Zhuyan soldiers outside. Their momentum was immediately dampened, like a candle in the wind, almost extinguished, but finally condensed into a ball, tenacious and indestructible.
Then they became restless, as if to fight back.
At this time, a man walked out of the hall. He had white hair and a youthful face, and looked like an immortal. There was a round bead between his eyebrows, and the situation inside was changing, making him look mysterious. He was at the center of the collision of the two forces, but he was strolling leisurely, not affected at all.
He stopped in front of the palace gate, with his hands behind his back, glanced at the Zhuyan soldiers and looked up at the sky.
His gaze was like a sword, piercing through the clouds and looking up into the sky. He praised loudly, "As expected of the elite of the Zhuyan clan, you are really courageous!"
Although we don't know this person's identity, we can tell from his performance that he is a peerless master. The Zhuyan clan soldiers all puffed out their chests to receive this person's praise.
At this time, a beam of light descended from the sky, and Yuan Miao appeared. He bowed to the man and said, "Are you the chief priest of Hanjiang Lu Family? I am Yuan Miao."
"It's me!"
The chief priest did not look down on Yuan Miao because of his cultivation, and returned the greeting, "This time, Prince Lu led the army to fight against the rebels, and the Emperor also sent a young master to help, and ordered me to be the vanguard. I hope you will forgive me for disturbing this precious land."
"Young Master?"
Yuan Miao was shocked. He didn't expect that the Emperor Si would send the Young Master here.
The young master is the right-hand man of the Emperor Si, and is very famous. His cultivation is not inferior to that of the great priest.
In other words, the Siyou clan sent at least two late-stage strongmen, and it is unknown how many middle-stage and early-stage strongmen there are.
Yuan Miao was worried about Qin Sang in his heart, but he looked calm and said, "Before, my clan has signed a contract with your envoy. I hope you will abide by the rules. I will supervise the army myself."
"As it should be!"
The chief priest was friendly and after the negotiation, he ordered the vanguard to leave the hall.
The vanguards were all the elite among the elite, but facing the Zhuyan soldiers who were eyeing them covetously, they felt extremely pressured. They passed through the formation tremblingly and waited in formation outside the mountain.
Immediately afterwards, the large teleportation formation was activated again, and teams of troops moved over one after another.
Soon, the outside of the mountain was dark and dense, with flags flying, and they were gradually able to compete with the Zhuyan tribe. However, the chief priest strictly forbade them to conflict with the Zhuyan tribe, so they could only suppress their own momentum and allow the other side to oppress them.
It was impossible to count how many elite soldiers the Siyou clan had sent. Suddenly, a royal carriage came out of the main hall. Through a light gauze curtain, a throne could be vaguely seen inside. A figure was hazy, and there was a person sitting beside the throne with an obscure aura.
"Your Highness, King Lu! This is Daoist Fellow Yuan Miao," the chief priest stepped forward, bowed, and introduced Yuan Miao.
"Thank you, Special Envoy Yuan," King Lu's voice was soft, not as majestic as imagined.
The imperial carriage flew to the front of the army and waited.
Next, another team of elite Siyou tribe members walked out of the hall. Yuan Miao's brows gradually frowned, and he seemed to be hesitant to speak.
At this moment, a golden light suddenly descended from the sky, so bright that it illuminated the darkness.
The chief worshiper's expression changed slightly, and his fingers trembled slightly, but he did not move, allowing the golden light to fall in front of him, which turned into a precious stick, blocking the door of the temple.
Inside the hall, a Void Realm Level 2 expert was about to step out of the hall when he couldn't help but show a look of shock and felt a chill down his spine.
"That's enough! The rest of you please go back," a vague voice came from the sky.
The chief priest's eyes flashed, and he recognized the owner of the stick. The number of people was about to exceed the agreed number, but he did not stop. This was a test, but he did not expect to alarm the Yuanxiang clan leader.
"You guys go back and tell the people behind you that they don't need to come again," the chief priest waved his hand.
"Yes!"
The people in the hall did not dare to argue and retreated in shame.
……
On a mountain far away in the sky.
The peaks are beautiful and the scenery is pleasant.
In a pavilion in the mountains, two people were playing chess. One of them was wearing a white robe, had a pair of golden eyes, and looked solemn and majestic.
Opposite him was a young man who seemed to have encountered a difficult problem. He stared at the chessboard and was thinking hard. Behind him stood another man who was also thinking hard. His face was 90% similar to his. They should be brothers.
At this moment, the young man holding the chess piece felt something in his heart, turned his head and looked outside the mountain, and said in surprise: "Uncle really has a plan in mind, the Yuanxiang clan leader really made a move!"
