The Emperor is Above

Chapter 309: Teaching Chong Hou How to Be a Good Man
"Haha, this is a blessing in disguise!"

Old Man Shi smiled happily, his face wrinkled more deeply. He stroked Niuniu's little head and continued slowly,

“Fortunately, the Stone Spirit and the Blue Flower Tree Spirit are peaceful by nature. After integrating the many wild settlements and tribes of exotic beasts and fierce birds in Yunling, they have never had any thoughts of expanding their territory or plundering for hundreds of years.

As long as the Xing Kingdom and the Xianyu tribe do not come to interfere with them, these two powerful beings will never leave Yunling. Even the wild people and the tribes of strange beasts and fierce birds under their command rarely leave Yunling. "

Qing Yi finally understood why Yunling had built up such a powerful strength but had never been regarded as a huge threat by the rulers and ministers of Xing State. It was because he was too Buddhist.

However, he pondered for a moment and still worriedly said: "Even if the Stone Spirit and the Blue Flower Tree Spirit are peaceful by nature, they are two powerful beings in the first-grade realm, which is comparable to a prince of a great country.

Once they are lured over by the Xianyu tribe, Xianyu and Yunling will join forces to attack the Xing Kingdom in the south. I'm afraid the Northern Wilderness countries will not be able to resist at all!"

"Hey, kid, do you think you're the only one who has thought of this?"

Old Man Shi smiled and said, "Ever since the tragic battle outside the capital a hundred years ago, when King Xianyu Ye Yan and his 200,000 elite cavalry were wiped out.

Hundreds of thousands of Xianyu people were expelled to the north of Yunling. For the past hundred years, the two countries have used Yunling and Biancheng as the boundary. Both countries were worried that the other side would win over the two powerful men, Shi Ling and Qinghua Tree Spirit.

Therefore, the two countries have tried their best to win them over for a hundred years, but no matter how much sweet words they use or how much sincere persuasion they give, they cannot shake the Stone Spirit and the Blue Flower Tree Spirit in the slightest.

They have always firmly guarded the territory of Yunling, neither becoming an enemy of the two countries nor joining either side. This is truly a blessing and yet a pity. "

Qing Yi immediately smiled and said, "Actually, this is a good thing. Since neither of the two powerful beings in Yunling will surrender to the other, at least there will be an extra buffer between the two countries. Otherwise, if the Xianyu tribe goes south with all their strength, Xing State will find it difficult to resist with its own strength."

"That's true!"

Old Man Shi nodded in approval and said, "Since I became a first-class Grandmaster fifty years ago, I have visited the Stone Spirit and the Blue Flower Tree Spirit in Yunling many times.

But all my attempts to persuade him failed, and I also happened to run into Grand Master Xian Yu twice. Haha, that guy obviously ran into a wall one after another, and his face was so sour. "

Tu Shigu blinked his eyes and suddenly interrupted, "Old Man Shi, although the stone spirit and the blue and white tree spirit have peaceful personalities, it doesn't mean they are weak and can be bullied.

Brother Yi's Fengtu Dragon City is in Yunling. It would be too difficult to snatch the territory from the two first-grade stone spirits and tree spirits!"

Even Xing Shu agreed: "That's right, these are two first-class strong men who use Longcheng as their fiefdom. It's really not kind for the king to treat the second-class doctor of Longcheng like this."

“I have a great idea!”

Niuniu raised her hand excitedly and said crisply, "Now that Grandpa has broken through the shackles of the first rank, he must be more powerful than the stone spirit and the blue and white tree spirit.

Why not let Grandpa try again to subdue the two strong men in Yunling, so that Brother Qingyi can go to Longcheng to be buried in peace."

Without waiting for Qing Yi to express his opinion, Old Man Shi's eyes lit up, and his beard curled up with a smile: "Niuniu's idea is indeed not bad. Now the strong men in the country have suffered heavy casualties, and even old man Qianye was seriously injured.

If we can subdue the stone spirits and blue flower tree spirits in Yunling, the number of first-class warriors in our Xing country will even exceed that of Chong country, and we won’t have to worry about being threatened anymore.”

"Then I would like to thank Mr. Shi in advance!"

Qing Yi also smiled happily. With the help of a powerful saint who had surpassed the first level to deal with the stone spirit and the blue and white tree spirit, he had absolute confidence that he could gain a firm foothold in the Dragon City.

Without the threat of these two first-rank strongmen, although there are many second-rank strongmen in the remaining wild settlements and strange beasts and birds in Yunling, they are not enough to pose a big threat to the Dragon City embankment.

However, Ran You's loud voice immediately broke the joyful atmosphere in the teahouse: "Old Man Shi, it's not good. The Chongguo army attacked Yanjin City three days ago! The flying cavalry sent an urgent report this morning!"

"What? The Chongguo army attacked Yanjin City?" Old Man Shi stood up suddenly, and the smile on his face became serious. "The capital city changed drastically last night, but the Chongguo attacked Yanjin City three days ago. Could it be that they colluded with the Black Wind Tribe in defiance of the world?"

Ran You had a dark face full of anxiety: "No matter whether Chongguo colluded with the Black Wind Tribe or not, since they dared to take action, three days have passed, Yanjin City is probably in danger."

Qing Yi pondered for a moment and said, "Although the capital is three thousand miles away from Yanjin City, a letter can be delivered by flying cavalry in three days, and the capital can send a large army to Yanjin City for support within half a month.

Since Chongguo dared to launch a surprise attack and seize Yanjin City, it means that they knew that Xingguo would undergo a drastic change before the Black Wind Tribe and the Cat Ghost God took action, and they were completely unable to fight back against them, otherwise this would have triggered a national war. "

"Humph, Lord Chong is really brave!"

At this moment, the smile on Old Man Shi's face disappeared, his eyes bulged with anger and he said angrily, "The king and ministers of Chongguo must have known in advance that there would be drastic changes in the winter festival ceremony in the capital, and they must have known that the powerful people in the capital would suffer heavy casualties, otherwise they would never act so recklessly.

But they would never have expected that I, an old man, would be able to break through the shackles of the first rank by chance. As long as I am here, Chongguo will have to return Yanjin City obediently. "

At this point, Old Man Shi said coldly in an unquestionable overbearing tone: "Ran You, let the ministers spread the news of my breakthrough to the Saint Realm throughout the countries of the Northern Wilderness. I will now visit a few old friends in Chongguo and teach Chonghou how to behave."

Ran You did not have time to chat with Qing Yi. He said hello to Qing Yi and left in a hurry. Old Man Shi said solemnly, "Boy Yi, you should go to Longcheng Fengtu after the New Year. The journey of more than 7,000 miles will take at least one or two months.

Before you get to Yangwu City, I will catch up with the caravan on my Snow Owl, and then go with you to Longcheng to bury the earth. As for Dazhu, I will leave this child to you."

"Old Man Shi, just focus on dealing with Chongguo. I will return your brother Dazhu to you in good condition!" Qing Yi watched Old Man Shi riding a first-class snowy owl and quickly disappearing into the sky, and then sent a private message to Gongsun Wu and others.

The more than one hundred private armies and militiamen who were brought to the capital before are now led by Gongsun Wu, Dongmen Hu, Dongmen Bao, Chai Yong, and Daniu. They are active in the villages and communities around the capital, quietly recruiting farmers from the country. It is said that the progress is good.

After entrusting the affairs of Beihuang Grain and Oil Group to Xing Shu, Taishu Bingxin, Bao Bu Tong and others, Qing Yi prepared to return to Guqiu with Tu Shigu, the little fox, the civet cat, and the large barrel containing Shi Dazhu's body.

Bao Bu Tong, Tai Shu Bing Xin and others sent Qing Yi to the south bank of the Xingshui Dashi Bridge. "Don't worry, Master Shang, return to your burial ground in Guqiu. Beihuang Grain and Oil Group will never be influenced by anyone!"

After the Winter Festival, Qing Yi killed the Ningtu Ghost King. Bao Bu Tong had even stronger confidence in Qing Yi. Another confidence was that Old Man Shi was already the strongest among the countries in the Northern Wilderness, and he had always valued and supported Qing Yi.

Tai Shu Bing Xin was a little worried and said, "Dragon City Yishang Doctor, the Black Wind Tribe's chief priest escaped last night. You only brought a few people back to the Lonely Hill Fengtu. I'm worried that she will retaliate on the way."

"Haha, Shaoqing and Commander Taishu, don't worry, my family should come to pick me up soon!" Qing Yi had just laughed twice when a terrifying cry was heard from the sky, causing the Eagle Guards over the capital to panic.

"Wow—"

As a huge figure descended from the sky, Bao Bu Tong exclaimed in shock, "It turned out to be the Great Wilderness Dragon Vulture. It came to pick up the doctor and return to Lonely Hill. No wonder you weren't worried about the Black Wind Tribe's high priest ambushing you along the way."

Even though Taishu Bingxin and the others had seen the majestic appearance of the Great Wilderness Dragon Vulture in Solitary Hill, they could not help but be amazed when they came into close contact with it. This ferocious bird was truly a combination of strength and beauty.

"Goodbye everyone!"

When the Great Wilderness Dragon Vulture soared into the sky amid exclamations in the capital, Qing Yi's heart was filled with pride. When he left Solitary Hill, he was only a vassal of the rank of senior officer, but now, after more than half a month, he has become a vassal of the rank of senior official.

As for the Great Wilderness Dragon Vulture coming to greet them, it was a letter that Qing Yi entrusted Old Man Shi to deliver to Guqiu. After all, he himself was also worried that the High Priest of the Black Wind Tribe would linger around.

The little fox and the civet cat easily crawled into the feathers on the dragon eagle's back and slept comfortably without worrying about falling off.

At this time, Tu Shigu's words surprised Qing Yi: "What? Brother Shigu, did I hear it correctly? You are actually going to give up your status as a senior vassal and follow me to Longcheng to be buried?"
