Xuanjian Xianzu

Chapter 1155 Conspiracy (2)

Dark clouds were surging above the mountain, as if countless ghosts were being bred in them. A Netherworld Immortal Palace stood in the clouds, and from time to time, wisps of light flew up and down from it, going everywhere.

In the dark and lightless Hades Palace, Yang Ruiyi had a gloomy face and said nothing. The woman in front of him was dressed in a black robe and also did not dare to speak.

"Qi Lanyan...are you looking for death?"

Even though it had happened, he still found it hard to understand.

"The Yinsi and Luoxia are both high above, and below them are Guanhua and Yang, like ants under the feet of two giants. They seem to be doing well on the surface, but they know that they are actually nothing in the eyes of their own people, and they are even more afraid of the forces behind the other party... They should have been amicable and done with excitement..."

In Yang Ruiyi's opinion, although he and Qi Lanyan often compete with each other, they have a tacit understanding in general, just like two noblemen playing Cuju, there are wins and losses, but it will all be over with a laugh, and the game will be over after the back and forth.

When the game was over, since Yang Ruiyi had brought the ball, it was his turn to take it home...

But Qi Lanyan's behavior now was as if he was inexplicably angry and humiliated. He called all his relatives, princes and nobles, over. When the game was about to end, he insisted on kicking the ball back, hitting Yang Ruiyi's nose hard!

Although Yang Ruiyi had a trump card and was not afraid of the Lingbao monk... he was still full of doubts:

'Why bother? '

He also knew that Qi Lanyan was targeting Mingyang. The reason why he could sit in this position was because he wanted to target Mingyang. It was enough for everyone to understand. Why bother with the Yang family? Could they possibly steal the ball?
"After all this fussing, Qi Lanyan seems to have gotten really angry and is really determined to see who is better!"

After hearing his angry words, Yang Tianyou whispered:
"Maybe it's... Guangchan..."

Yang Ruiyi was silent for a moment.

He had never anticipated the incident with Guang Chan, and had never thought of it happening to him. For a moment, he even forgot that from the other party's perspective, he was kicking and slapping the other party, which made no sense at all!
He sighed coldly, and secretly had a premonition, and said:

"Then what does he mean?"

Yang Tianyou seemed very calm and replied:
"Since he has this trump card, but he uses it on little Bai Ye, it's obviously not a real move!"

This sentence made the general calm down and he narrowed his eyes slightly:

"His target is still Mingyang."

Yang Tianyou nodded solemnly and said:
"Wang Ziya is certainly powerful, but they sent Gui Tu specifically, which is obviously a targeted move. Qi Lanyan sent this person out ahead of time, which might be a hint..."

"Whether he is just pretending to be powerful or not, he does have the ability to make us return empty-handed in a short period of time."

Yang Ruiyi was not stupid. He stood up, took two steps, raised his eyebrows and said:
"good."

Yang Tianyou nodded hesitantly and said softly:
"He doesn't dare to stand against the general trend, but sitting in that position, he can't decide the result, but he can decide the process. What's more... we will definitely be able to obtain Shanji and Xuanmiao in the end, but what else?"

Yang Ruiyi remained silent for a long time, tightly closing his eyes, with a look of fear on his face, and said:
"Yes, his method is very clever."

Yang Tianyou lowered his head sadly and said:
"But he forgot that Li Zhouwei is not an ordinary person. Even if he can't see it at the moment, he will be able to see it after a while. It's too hurtful and I'm afraid it's not appropriate. What's more, His Majesty..."

Yang Ruiyi's eyes turned cold and he shook his head.
"I'm afraid it's the adults who should be considered."

Yang Tianyou's pupils immediately dilated and he took a deep breath.

"That's right... We haven't received any news so far. We've allowed Wang Ziya to do whatever he wants in Baiye. I'm afraid that the Lord and Youming have also acquiesced and are impartial..."

She had had a personal conversation with the adults back then, and many people were concerned about Mingyang's matter:
'Not only Luoxia dislikes the Emperor of Wei, but the people under the Netherworld also dislike the Emperor of Wei, and even the Fox Clan and the Yuan Mansion... do not like Li Qianyuan! Moreover, Qi Lanyan must have catered to the preferences of a certain adult in the north for doing such a thing.'

This made her feel very cold in her heart. She raised her eyebrows suddenly and saw Yang Ruiyi raising his hand with difficulty and closing his eyes tightly:
"Let neighbor Gu Lanying come up."

……

The color above the water was dark, and pieces and wisps of light were constantly fading away. The color of the formation was dim. Li Ximing retracted his magical powers, took a deep breath, and the symptoms of dizziness and blurred vision were greatly relieved.

'It's really a bit of a stretch.'

Neither Tuoba Ci nor Gongsun Bei were easy to deal with. One was a descendant of the Daliang emperor, and the other was a Xiqi cultivator holding a spiritual treasure. Either of them should have been able to suppress him firmly, and there was even a risk of serious injury.

In this battle, he relied on the great formation, and the magical effect of [Spirit Split into Different Body] came in handy, allowing him to hold out under the siege of two people. With the cooperation of two other spiritual treasures, Li Jiangqian suddenly attacked and injured Gongsun Bei, which allowed him to hold out safely until now.

"If there is a slight mistake, I will be fine, but Jiang Qian will probably be injured..."

He stood up in a hurry and went to look at Li Zhouwei. The King of Wei was standing on the bright and shining Heavenly Gate and had retracted his magical powers with some regret.

Li Zhouwei rushed here injured and in high spirits. He saved Tingzhou and had some killing intentions, but unfortunately Tuoba Ci and the other two reacted too quickly. Li Zhouwei also had to take into account the injured and young on the lake, so he did not pursue them further.

"This Gongsunbei is seriously injured. He won't be able to move for a while..."

Of course, Li Zhouwei came suddenly, so it was impossible for him to get nothing. He swept his sleeves, and the sky gate beside him moved with a bang. Then all the lights faded, revealing a bottle.

This bottle has a long neck and is as green as jade. It is gorgeous and dazzling, and it is swirling with streams of dry Qi. Even when he holds it in his hand, it is still struggling and trying to escape.

It is exactly the [Dai Ye Ping] from Gongsun Bei!
Although this spiritual weapon did not use any extremely extraordinary spiritual objects, its patterns were brilliant and its inspiration was quite impressive. It was obvious that a lot of thought had gone into its refining, and it was not bad among spiritual weapons.

'It's a pity that it's 'Xiqi'. Compared to using it for myself, the greater significance is to make Gongsun Bei lose it... When there is a chance, I can take it out and find someone to exchange it for 'Lihuo' and 'Quandan'! '

He was just trying to calm it down when he met Li Ximing's gaze. Master Zhao Jing looked worried and asked:
"How's the injury?"

Li Zhouwei knew that he was referring to the wound on his face. He dipped his finger and could still see the golden blood. His face darkened for a moment and he replied:

“It’s not heavy…”

"Hongxia?"

"Yes."

It was the first time that Li Zhouwei was struck by the purple mansion-level glow taught by Tongxuan himself, and he felt it deeply. Seeing the young man in crimson robe also riding the fire over, he replied:
"It is quite magical, containing Wu light, and the wound is heavy and obscure, and extremely difficult to repair!"

Li Zhouwei's [Emperor Qi Light] collided with the opponent's rosy glow, the colors flew away, and quickly disintegrated. Nearly 50% of the power of that rosy glow hit him, 20% was dissolved by [Yuan E], and half was taken away by Huayang Wang Yue and other minor gods, leaving only 25% in the end.

Therefore, the injury is not serious, but small but deep. The trouble is that there is a light interference, making it difficult to recover.

His Dharma body should be more difficult to recover than that of ordinary people, but with "Jun Daowei" and "Ming Zhang Ri Yue", it is actually faster. Even so, there is no sign of relief for this injury in the short term.

So he briefly mentioned Bai Ye's matter and said:

"Tinglan and Situ Huo went to rescue Shanji. I saw someone in trouble on the lake, so I turned back..."

Li Ximing's face slightly changed when he heard about Bai Ye's matter. He said:

"Tongxuan? Someone from Luoxia is coming? How can this be possible... From your description, if this person stands in Baiye, will the North and South continue to fight? How much of a headache will Yang family have?"

Li Zhouwei looked solemn and said:
"It's far more than that... I don't know if this person has practiced magic or possessed some kind of magical power. He seems to be covered with a thick veil, and I can't see his magical power. It was not until he used the magical power of "Return to Earth" that I recognized his Taoist lineage..."

Li Ximing sighed:
"I knew there was a problem - they were guarding you on the north bank! If you hadn't gone to Baiye, you would still be fighting in Baijiang now... If you weren't here, once Baiye was broken, I don't know if Tinglan could be saved. But if the Buddhist monks came to Baijiang, you wouldn't be able to escape, which would make the situation worse and create another disaster!"

Li Ximing's inference was not wrong. It was very likely that this was originally arranged by the North. However, it made Li Zhouwei even more suspicious, and his heart suddenly sank:
"Yang Ruiyi called me over at a very clever time. Was he doing it on purpose or not...did he know this was going to happen?"

He hesitated for only a moment, and the answer came to his mind:
'No... The situation in Baiye may not be easy to deal with even if Yang Ruiyi goes there in person. If he knew the layout of Baiye, he should ask Tinglan and Situ Huo to abandon the mountain and return to defend, to help Baijiang or Shanji, which would definitely reduce the damage - instead of letting me go there in vain!'

"That Taoist came down from the cave. Even if he received an order, I'm afraid no one could have predicted it..."

He thought and shook his head, saying:

"There's something fishy about this matter. I'm afraid... Yang's family also has an accident."

“How do I deal with myself now?”

Li Ximing asked this question, and his face became hesitant:

"Tuoba Ci and his two men have retreated, but Protector Liu is still in Baijiang. If we ask them to leave... I'm afraid he will be in danger there."

The King of Wei was silent for a short while, and then Li Jiangqian spoke in a deep voice:
"In my opinion, it is absolutely inappropriate to act... Since Yang Ruizao is with Liu Bai with the national treasure [Guzhou Ding], he cannot be easily captured, otherwise these two people would not cross the river to pursue him... Now that Bai Ye has been lost, crossing the river easily will fall into their trap!"

Li Zhouwei narrowed his eyes and nodded:
"There are at least three mid-stage Purple Mansion cultivators on the other side. Although Gongsun Bei has been injured by me, there is still Dayu Dao and Zhalu who came from Baiye—even that Taoist priest. Now that Yang has miscalculated, everyone on the lake must put their own safety first."

"not to mention…"

He sighed, and before he could elaborate, he felt the void vibrate, a black cloud appeared, and a dark green light flew over, transforming into a woman on the lake!

It’s Lan Ying from the neighboring valley!

Her face turned pale, and she stopped at the lake urgently, her eyes fell on Li Jiangqian's face, she was stunned, but the emergency situation made her unable to ask more questions, she immediately raised her head and said:
"Greetings, King Wei... Lan Ying has come here under orders... King Wei, please hold on to Tingzhou and wait for help!"

Li Zhouwei looked solemn, and did not answer her, but immediately whispered:
"How about a boring tool?!"

Neighbor Gu Lanying was stunned and replied:

"Still holding on... After Baiye was lost, Zhalu and others immediately went to Baijiang. Liu Duhu received the order and retreated to Boringdao with Yang Ruizao in advance. Now he is guarding the mountain together with the master and apprentice of Guolingfeng."

"I heard the attack wasn't that fierce, so we can still hold on for a while."

Li Zhouwei frowned and said:
"In that case, Boring Blade is already isolated in the north, Tuoba Ci and his men are on the other side of the river, along with Zhalu and his men, and even that Taoist priest... they could cross the river again at any time?"

Neighbor Gu Lanying was shocked, lowered her eyebrows, and said softly:

"That Taoist is from the Lingbao sect, so it's impossible for him to cross the river. The general has already sent fellow Taoists Chen Yin and Ting Lan to come... The general said... King Wei, please rest assured... there will be help later!"

She bowed deeply, then hurried south to pass on the message. Li Zhouwei caught the key message, narrowed his golden eyes, and whispered:
"Xi Shu has not yet made a move, so please, uncle, guard Xiping Mountain."

Li Ximing had no choice but to nod. Li Zhouwei then turned around and looked at his second son, saying:
"Liu Duhu is also the pillar of the country. We cannot sit idly by and watch him being surrounded. You just watch from the north bank. If the boring tool is broken and he intends to break out to the south, it would be best if you can help him."

Li Jiangqian understood that he meant to refer to Cha You who was watching from afar, and he bowed and replied:
"Father, don't worry!"

The King of Wei then turned into a stream of light and disappeared. Li Ximing left with a worried look on his face. Li Jiangqian took the Li Guang and headed north, thinking in his heart:

"Since you asked me to watch over the North Bank, I'm afraid there is more than one reason... Granduncle is so kind, is he afraid that if the North Bank really has murderous intentions, he won't be able to be ruthless and unshakable?"

……

The magical power on the ceiling had long faded away, but the cave was still silent. The lights kept flickering, and the only sound was the man's pacing. The map placed on the main seat was covered with marks and looked messy.

"At Wangyue Lake... they are fighting at Wangyue Lake..."

According to his memory, the Battle of Baihai in the Second Life did not change. Dayu besieged Tongdao, Qi Lanyan used Tuoba Ci, Shilouyingge and Gongsun Bei to attack Baiye, and the Mahas guarded Shanji... Not to mention Tingzhou, even Baixiang on the opposite bank of Tingzhou did not have many battles!
Li Suining stopped at the main seat, feeling a little disappointed:

"Qi Lanyan...what is he doing again..."

At the moment when the magical power in the sky fluctuated, Li Suining's heart was already greatly shocked - the Battle of Baihai did take place in the eighteenth year of Xiuwu... but that was in July, and now it was only April!

"Qi Lanyan suddenly brought up the war... The Song Dynasty... is likely to be unable to prepare..."

This also disrupted Li Suining's plans!
His eyes kept moving across the drawing that was covered with traces of ink, but he became more and more confused. He suddenly raised his head and found that the man in the black and golden robe was already standing in front of him.

"Kings…"

Li Suining saw the deep colorful mark on his face at a glance, and was shocked. Just as he was about to say more, he saw Li Zhouwei waving his hands and staring at the map with a serious expression.

Only two breaths passed, and then I heard his low voice:

"Someone came from the cave, so you didn't expect it."

Li Suining's heart was shaken, as if all the blood in his body had rushed to his head. He raised his head suddenly, and a strong sense of shock and chill instantly filled his eyes. He opened his lips and teeth and said in horror:

"Yao Guanyi?!"

Li Zhouwei suddenly looked up, stared at him, and slowly shook his head.

Li Suining felt the blood in his body flowing back again, and his hands and feet felt hot. He listened to Li Zhouwei's concise statement:
"I was ordered to go to Baiye... but I failed to defend it... Tuoba Ci, Shilou Yingge, Gongsun Bei... surrounded Baijiang. Liu Bai held back one person, while Gongsun and Tuoba went south. I hurried back... and just managed to repel them..."

Li Suining felt a chill in his heart after hearing this. After listening to Li Zhouwei's description of the Taoist priest, although he felt confused, he gradually calmed down, grasped the core point, and said anxiously:
"There must be an order from the True Lord Dao Sect. Perhaps they are dissatisfied with Guangchan's matter. Qi Lanyan is taking advantage of the power of others... All the arrangements have been disrupted, even the time to go south... is also problematic!"

Li Zhouwei was not surprised, he had already seen a lot of things from Yang Ruiyi's reaction - the war between the North and the South was restrained in nature, but Qi Lanyan's move definitely took the Yang family into account!
Li Suining had similar ideas to his, raised his head and whispered:
"Although I don't know what the arrangements are in the north now...but...but the north and the south are wary of each other. Qi Lanyan's current actions are absolutely extremely dangerous!"

He lowered his eyebrows and spoke in a hasty tone:

"It's dangerous for him, and it's also dangerous for the Yang family!"

Li Zhouwei closed his eyes and thought for a moment, then suddenly asked:

"Qi Lanyan is completely out of control. You don't have to think too much about him. Tell me, what is the underworld's trump card?"

When Li Zhouwei went to the wilderness, Yang Ruiyi mentioned his own plan, and looked like he was suffering from the pressure from the rear, but Li Zhouwei did not believe him. This great general of the underworld - definitely had his own trump card!
Li Suining considered for a moment, gritted his teeth and said:
"The Sword Immortal of Wanyu Sword Sect, the Great Master of Duijin - Ling Mei."

Li Zhouwei suddenly raised his eyebrows.

Great Master!
'He...is too old!'

In an instant, Li Zhouwei's mind became clear.

'No wonder!'

What was Yang Ruiyi's original arrangement?
Let Liu Bai guard Baijiang and protect Wangyue Lake, while Situ Huo guards the Baiye area, and Li Zhouwei and Yang Ruiyi attack Shanji together!
If this layout is just like this, it would be like drinking poison to quench thirst. Liu Bai and Situ Huo are not only under tremendous pressure and may die at any time, but they will not be able to hold on for long... But if a great master Dui Jin who is obsessed with [Da Xue Jue Feng] comes out of Jianmen, the situation will be completely different!
If there was no such a real person who came out of the cave, and let such a four-divine sword cultivator join hands with Li Zhouwei and Yang Ruiyi, Shan Ji would be crushed into powder even if he was made of immortal gold and black iron! He could kill Xuanmiao in one breath!
"And the mystery at this moment is only for Qi Lanyan!"

By then, let alone Baijiang and Baiye, even if the entire Jianghuai area was lost, it would not matter at all. By pulling out Shanji, the nail that has penetrated deep into the hinterland, and taking down the bridgehead Xuanmiao in one breath, the power of the entire eastern part of Jiangnan can be united, and Jianghuai will be within reach!

Li Zhouwei raised his eyebrows and suddenly said:
"Does Qi Lanyan know?"

Li Suining said in a deep voice:

"He has a disciple named Fan Kang, who is also favored by Tian Su!"

The King of Wei took a step forward and murmured:
"Fan...Kang..."

The golden eyes gradually turned cold:
"So... Qi Lanyan took the initiative in order not to withdraw from Jianghuai, and the Taoist priest was his confidence - a certain lord really didn't want things to change so quickly."

"So what should Qi Lanyan do now? Pull out the two swords, Baiye and Boring Dao, gather the strength, protect Shanji, and fight against the Song Dynasty for two more years?"

His words made Li Suining silent for a moment, then he raised his eyebrows and said:

"It's hard to predict what's happening in the north... but now... I'm afraid we can only hold on..."

"wrong."

Li Suining looked up and saw a golden glow in the King of Wei's eyes. He said coldly:
"There's no need. Qi Lanyan doesn't need to bother. He's never been concerned about the dispute between the North and the South. He has schemed against me more than once or twice. I know him."

"Does it matter if we save Shan Ji a year earlier or later? Will such a big change in the overall situation offend the underworld? Will it interfere with the layout of some lord?"

"That Taoist may be here to cover him up, but Qi Lanyan will never do anything stupid. The process is not important, but the final result is important - he will not even guard Shanji, and he will not even guard Xuanmiao."

"It's meaningless to waste two more years. Baihai and even Jianghuai... will be lost sooner or later. Why did Yang Ruiyi ask me to hold on here and wait for help? Qi Lanyan's target is me and Mingyang."

"As long as I am in Tingzhou, he will bring people to Baijiang, or even to Tingzhou. Before leaving, he will suppress me, severely injure me, and dampen my momentum."

He raised his head and said coldly:

"Order me to stay here and accept the suppression. Lead a group of people to welcome Qi Lanyan and his men. Even if the battle turns the sky dark and the sun and moon lose their light, or leaves millions of corpses and severely damages the magical powers, we will eventually hold them back."

"Yang Ruiyi can then calmly take down Shanji and Xuanmiao, and even swallow up the entire Jianghuai region - the lives of others are not important, and no one dares to kill me, Li Zhouwei, so what's the harm?"

Li Suining had a very good understanding of the situation and reacted in an instant. He immediately raised his eyebrows and gritted his teeth and said:

"The two sides have merged together!"

The thunder in his heart rolled twice, he raised his head and was about to speak, but the King of Wei stopped him, with a cold smile in his eyes:
"It's okay, just understand it, it's not difficult to deal with."

……

The mountains were covered with dark clouds and the surroundings were gloomy. Qi Lanyan returned riding the wind, put away his magic in front of the hall, put his hands in his sleeves, and then walked into the hall.

His eyes were bright and he looked very proud.

The lights on both sides fluctuated with the wind of the law. As the real person moved forward, the monks on both sides were filled with joy and shouted congratulations:
"Congratulations, sir!"

"Bai Ye has been defeated!"

"The boring tool is under siege!"

As soon as he entered the hall, he saw Fan Kang hurriedly approaching and flattering him:

"Master is wise! Li Zhouwei has appeared in Tingzhou!"

"Hello, Tingzhou."

Qi Lanyan smiled:
"Practicing martial arts is not allowed."

He answered without pausing and walked into the back hall. Suddenly, silence fell. The Taoist with a long beard was already standing in the hall, looking at him with a smile. Qi Lanyan knew that the mission was accomplished and said:
"Sorry to bother Uncle Wang!"

So he picked up the pot, sat down at the table with high spirits, filled Wang Ziya's cup, then filled his own cup, and said with a smile:

"Yang has to bow his head too!"

Wang Ziya glanced at him, his smile faded, he reached out and grabbed his hand hidden in his sleeve, and saw that his palm was pitch black, with veins like spider webs, and dark patches on it.

Wang Ziya stroked his white beard, was suddenly startled, frowned and said:
"Are you taking action?"

Qi Lanyan then calmed down and replied:

"We have to take back Baiye... We can't afford to lose. Naturally, I should go and stop him myself. Only by stopping him early can we make things go smoothly for Baiye... But I pushed him too far and he got really angry. I had to use the Thunder of the Mysterious Drum to suppress him."

Qi Lanyan smiled and said in a gentle tone:

"He's not feeling well either."

Wang Ziya seemed very confused and shook his head:
"I don't have much time left, so I'll leave the mountain. I have nothing to be reluctant about. But Yangfeng... you are young and have a bright future. You are also a member of the mortal sect. Why do you want to learn from those earthly monks and join them? First, there is no benefit, and second, it will be affected by karma... It will bring you a lot of trouble. Who will be willing to protect you in the overall situation of Mingyang?"

"Besides, if Mingyang really succeeds in the future, you and Guanxie will probably be reduced to ashes."

Qi Lanyan lowered his head and didn't look at him, so Wang Ziya had to stop talking. After thinking for a while, his eyes changed and he said:

"What else do you want to do now?"

Qi Lanyan secretly observed the expression of this uncle and said with a smile:

"Now there is only the Great Yuan Guangyin Mountain left, but it is like a turtle in a jar. Da Yudao will surround this mountain, and we will go south to Baijiang to shake the Song border!"

Wang Ziya shook his head, looking somewhat gloomy, and asked:
"And then?"

He stroked his white beard, seemingly not supporting Qi Lanyan's opinion, and said:
"Just stop while you're ahead... I've helped you, and it's already enough to make the Yang family suffer. Do you still want to push your luck?"

"It's too dangerous! You are not Li Zhouwei, and you have never had Mingyang on you. Who is behind you? He can kill Guangchan and get away with it. Do you dare to kill even one member of the Yang family?"

"Li Zhouwei is the key to Mingyang and will die sooner or later. He is not afraid at all and dares to kill anyone. His life has long been at stake. You still have a future to talk about, but now... you are using your life to accompany them on the gambling table!"

"Although Li Zhouwei's killing of Guangchan broke the rules, I came down the mountain not just to retaliate, but to really piss off the underworld. You and I are both not worthy of their venting!"

He had tried his best to persuade him, but Qi Lanyan's eyes were bright. He was not surprised by his answer and said:

"That's exactly why I, Qi Lanyan, was pushed here, barely taking into account the interests of all the families. The underworld must take back my old place. As long as I want to keep my life, I have to admit defeat. It's just a matter of losing sooner or later. This is the general trend of the world."

His smile was grim, and he continued:

"I originally wanted to suppress Mingyang, but I never thought that Yang's position would be so straightforward. In this case, why don't I be more straightforward too."

"Bai Hai will definitely be lost, and the initiative in Jiang Huai will definitely be given up. This is the bottom line of the South, but I can decide how much the Yang family will have to pay to claim Jiang Huai! How much territory can be obtained after conquering it!"

"As long as I am willing, even if Xuanmiao is lost, I can still occupy Boring Tool, Baiye, and Chengshui, giving me more room to maneuver. One more year of delay will bring me one more year of benefit. The longer the time is delayed, the shorter the time Mingyang will have to accumulate strength in the Central Plains in the future, and the more prepared the Seventh Prime Minister will be... the more headache Yang Ruiyi will have!"

Qi Lanyan paused:

"The impact on Uncle Wei will also be smaller."

Wang Ziya had always found it difficult to understand his idea of ​​fighting to the death with the Song Dynasty. Until he heard these words, he became more depressed and said:
"You...you are...no wonder!"

Qi Lanyan laughed:

"This is an open conspiracy. I told Yang Ruiyi clearly that I dare not refuse Jianghuai, but I must defeat Mingyang! I must make sure that Li Zhouwei does not gain any credit for the loss of Huaidong. I must make sure that he is severely injured and recuperate for ten or even twenty years, so that he will not gain any credit for the subsequent battles in the entire Jianghuai and even Qilu!"

"As long as my uncle-master keeps an eye on the east for me, if Li Zhouwei is in Baijiang, I will attack him. If he is in Baiye, I will attack Baiye. If he is in Tingzhou... I will go there despite the eyes of the whole world! To humiliate and persecute him, kill his descendants, and damage his reputation!"

Wang Ziya's eyes were moved. He shook his head, calmed down his disbelief, and whispered:

"You... you are too stubborn... you care too much about the general situation! Have you ever thought about Xuanlou? Do you really care about this?"

Qi Lanyan ignored him and said calmly:

"The most important thing is that he is not the one who makes the decision. The Netherworld pays more attention to the mortal world than the mountains. The Yang family must be inclined to simply recapture Jianghuai rather than fight a decisive battle with me head-on... This is not Yang Ruiyi's business alone."

"Both parties are happy to see this."

"After this incident, I will quit the world and beg to enter the mountains. Since Uncle Wang is willing to come to me, there must be an adult willing to accept me in the future. I will disappear from now on and no one will be able to find me."

"He is already in the middle stage of Purple Mansion. This is not the time for Mingyang to be weak. This heavy punch must be delivered at this time, so that he can neither match Guangchan's achievements nor combine the merits of Zhongyuan. He will never be able to find me again. Even if he becomes a great immortal later and goes to Weijun to achieve enlightenment, Mingyang will remember that he has not avenged this loss!"

Wang Ziya stared at him blankly:
"What if you can't retire after achieving your goal?"

Qi Lanyan's eyes were smiling, but full of coldness:

"I know what my uncle is hinting at. They want face, but I don't. I'm not afraid of offending those adults who want Mingyang to return to his throne. At worst, I'll die! If I die, will Li Zhouwei still be able to find the Netherworld to take revenge on me?"

Wang Ziya's face changed drastically:
"Why is this so!"

"Why is this so?"

Qi Lanyan laughed:

"When my uncle knew I had the Tian Su Zi, he knew why I did it. I entered the mountain at the age of six, but after ten years I was unable to gain Qi, so I was driven down the mountain. It was snowing heavily, and my father had died. My uncle felt that I had wasted ten years and would not be able to achieve anything, so it was my great master and uncle Wei who took me in."

"Later, the master passed away, and the only regret was that he could not achieve enlightenment. He held the hand of the master uncle tightly and said... [Only Xuanlou can control the yin and the yang!] At that time, the sky was still full of snow. This was the wish of the three generations of Guanhua!"

Qi Lanyan's eyes were cold and he smiled:

"He doesn't care, but I can't!"

"Riding the Golden Three Mysterious Palaces, one must have power to respect the king. To ascend the steps, one must have a warrant. Don't learn from the Qin and Tang dynasties. Even a dignified Wu Guan can sigh like this. Uncle Master doesn't need to persuade him!"

Wang Ziya was silent again, his eyes became solemn, and he suddenly felt that the person in front of him was completely different from his impression. He suddenly became suspicious and his expression wavered:

'Lingbao Cave Heaven, enjoying the infinite Dao tradition, using up all the precious resources... but having no gold all year round, and repeatedly suffering setbacks... I was given high hopes... but I have fallen to the point of being abandoned by the Dao. I am afraid that the younger generations, no matter how talented they are, can't even be as decisive as Qi Lanyan!'

"Is it really as Yao Guanyi said, "There is no heroic spirit in the cave"? "

He was distracted for a moment, but then he heard a thump. The man in front of him had already fallen to his knees and bowed to him. Wang Ziya was horrified and quickly stood up to avoid him.
"What are you doing!"

Qi Lanyan stared into his eyes and said:

"I will never forget the kindness of my uncle, but the fact that my uncle came here today at least shows that I did not do anything wrong... If you can do me a favor for my father's sake... please let me know... the master's order!"

Wang Ziya was silent for a while, not knowing how to answer him. After a long sigh, he said:
"The King of Wei killed Guang Chan, so I have to kill one more person to end this."
