Shendou Continent

Chapter 232 Invitation from the Holy City
In mid-August, it is another season of sweet-scented osmanthus fragrance.

On this day, the archbishop of the Holy See's Qiantang branch came to the Qintai Sect.Although Archbishop Wang Lunwu has a good relationship with Lin You, it is rare to meet Lin You directly now.Through his disciples, Deming came forward to receive him.This time, the people from the Holy See came for the Holy City activities.

It turns out that in the past hundred years, the pattern of sects in the world has undergone tremendous changes, and the situation today is completely different from that of more than 300 years ago. The Holy See came forward to organize a sect activity similar to the [-]th year of the Holy Calendar to re-evaluate the eight major sects.This kind of call was first proposed by St. Wanwan sect, but there were very few responses. Later, it joined the Shenyin sect, which was a little bit more powerful, but the previous pope was gradually entering his twilight years, and he was not very interested, so he selectively ignored it. .

In recent years, Xiaoxiangzong has also joined the appeal camp.As the Pope of the new generation, Lu Jianyi carefully considered the demands of the three major sects, combined with the situation in various places, and decided to invite the leaders of the eighteen most famous sects in the mainland to meet in Saint Dou City.In addition to the eight most powerful sects, the invited sects are: Ouyue Qintai Sect, Guangchu Yuelu Sect and Wudang Sect, Loulan Tianshan Sect, Nanling Nanhai Sect, Xishu Yunyan Sect, Baishan Sect The Light and Shadow Sect, the Mengliao Tianmo Sect, the Hanhai East Immortal Sect, and the Tianxin Sect of a vassal state, except for the Changbai Sect, are really missing, and they can be regarded as the elite sects that include today's mainland.Referring to the arrangement more than 300 years ago, this event is also scheduled for the Awakening Day on October 23, and it also revolves around sacrifices.

Lin You was naturally happy to receive the official invitation from the Holy See, which shows that the Qintai Sect still has some momentum.But when he thought of facing Xiaoxiang's people, he was also a little worried.However, if the Holy See invites him, he must go, not to mention that the Pope has an old relationship with him, so there is no need to worry about his safety in Saint Dou City.It's just that how to get to Saint Dou City is a problem for him. If he passes through Guangchu dignifiedly, he may attract vendetta. If he sneaks around, where will he put his Qintai's face?But if you bypass Guangchu, it will delay a lot of travel.After much deliberation, Lin You decided to send Deming to the Holy See to ask the Holy See for some advice in the name of gratitude. The person who tied the bell had to be untied. Maybe they have a countermeasure.

As soon as the sun rose on the second day, Dai Ming took Dugu Yuchen and another disciple, and the three of them rode blue-eyed spirit horses and set off for Shaozhou City.With the help of the sealed treasure, the Qintai Sect has a lot of money. With the accumulation over the years, the construction of the sect and some necessary purchases are naturally not bad. The number of blue-eyed spirit horses has already caught up with Wuyun total number of doors.Riding these spirit beasts, Dai Ming and the others arrived at Shaozhou City at sunset and stayed in Qintai Courtyard.The Qintai Sect had already built a separate courtyard in Shaozhou for the disciples of the sect to work and rest in the city.The other courtyard occupies a large area and has several small buildings, which can also be used by Qintai high-level officials to live in Shaozhou for a long time.

The next day, the three of them went down to the Holy See's Qiantang sub-helm under the leadership of the steward of the other courtyard after breakfast.Through the pass by the guard, De Ming and others soon met Archbishop Wang.

After exchanging pleasantries, Dai Ming thanked Archbishop Wang: "The archbishop went to the evil sect in person the day before yesterday, and my patriarch was very grateful. He sent me to come to thank you. I will prepare a small profit, and I hope you will accept it!" The herbal medicine and some gold and silver were handed over.

"Elder Dai is very polite! I also thank Sect Master Lin here! I am really ashamed to trouble you to come to the door in person! The activities on the Holy City Awakening Day, Sect Master Lin will have no problem?" Wang Lunwu thanked Dai Ming and gestured After receiving the gift, the man said politely.

"It's a good thing to go to the Holy City. Of course, my suzerain will obey. However, if you want to visit the Holy City to pay homage to the Pope, you should normally pass through Guangchu. The archbishop also knows the joint. We are afraid that if we arrive in Guangchu, we will be like a sheep in a tiger's den." Deming did not agree Hidden, directly picked the topic.

Hearing what Dai Ming said, Wang Lunwu already knew what was going on, but he still said deliberately: "Sect Master Lin is afraid that the Guangchu Empire and the Xiaoxiang Sect will not give face to the Holy See?"

Dai Ming thought to himself, you old king knew the reason, but you also pretended to be serious and said: "Yes! You also know the tragedy of Guangchu Qintai back then."

"Back then, Emperor Guangchugou instigated Xiaoxiang and other villains to kill more than [-] people in Qintai, Jiangzhou. The methods were cruel, and people and gods were all angry. They had already forged a deadly enmity with us. Even if we didn't come to collect debts, they would still put us on the spot. Death!" Dugu Yuchen added on the side, she was also a direct victim of the Qintai tragedy that year, and she felt much more deeply than Deming.

"En! You are very worried! The Holy See is aware of the situation at the Qintai. When the Holy Temple issued the invitation, it notified all the major empires and relevant vassal states, and invited them to send envoys to attend the meeting. At the same time, he also raised his expectations, and hoped that they would give convenience to all sects. As for the situation of Qintai Sect, the Pope specifically explained to Elder Sun of Pangu Hall and the two Metropolitan Bishops of Guangchu and Ouyue. The Metropolitan Huang of Ouyue also specially communicated with me. Please tell me, please rest assured that your sect is at ease. Anyone who dares to attack your sect at this time is an enemy of my Holy See. The Guangchu Empire, at least on the surface, will not, and the Xiaoxiang sect, forgive it. .” Wang Lunwu explained the arrangement of the Holy See.

"That's good! Then I thank all the adults of the Holy See on behalf of the suzerain!" After hearing this, De Ming was overjoyed, and stood up and said to Archbishop Wang. Dugu Yuchen and others also stood up to thank him.

After that, there was another small talk.When the conversation was almost over, De Ming invited the archbishop and others to have a drink together in the Tongle Building at night. After the other party nodded, De Ming and the others got up and said goodbye.

At night, in the largest private room in Tongle Building in Shaozhou, Dai Ming hosted a banquet for several prominent figures of the Holy See in Qiantang.Pushing cups and changing cups can be regarded as deepening the relationship between Qintai and the Holy See.

After returning to Qintai, Dai Ming reported the situation to Lin You in detail.Lin You was still worried, and sent him to Hangjing with a heavy gift to pay a visit to Huang Fu, the metropolitan of the Holy See in the Ouyue Empire, hoping that this time he could go with the people of the Ouyue Holy See.Huang Fuben also made good friends with Qintai, and after accepting the heavy gift, he also fully agreed.

To be on the safe side, Lin You simply asked Ziyan and Chen Jiao to go to Wuyunmen to seek support.The two went to Wuyun to meet their master and talked about the invitation from the Holy See.Wumen also knew the intention of the two of them, so they helped persuade the head teacher.With the approval of the head teacher, they have achieved their goal.In this way, after some planning, with the endorsement of the Holy See and the assistance of Wuyunmen, Lin You felt relieved.

After preparing for a while, Lin You took Fu Jing, Dai Ming, and the Hall Master of the Six Halls, and with the support of many disciples, they set off for Saint Dou City.He left Wang Liang to preside over the affairs of the sect, and the sect also needs to be guarded.According to the agreement, they first went to Hangjing to join the people at the helm of the Holy See Ouyue, and then passed through Yanzhou to travel with Wuyunmen all the way.

All the way to the west, the Qintai Sect will once again appear on the land of Guangchu...
