The Emperor is Above

Chapter 406 Wouldn’t it be better if we all worked together to achieve a well-off life?
"Your Excellency has broken through the shackles of the first rank and advanced to the holy realm?"

He Qianxue's beautiful fair face froze for a moment, a trace of uneasiness flashed across her beautiful eyes, but she soon smiled again, and said in a soft laugh,
"I would like to congratulate you on breaking through the shackles of the first level. This is a great joyous event in the cultivation world. The two mountain masters would also be happy if they knew this news.

Recently, a distinguished guest came to Yunling Mountain. The two mountain masters are not convenient to come to greet the distinguished guest. If the venerable has any unimportant matters to be explained, I can convey them to the two mountain masters."

"Head of the Crane Clan, what you said is wrong. If the matter is not important, why would you bother a Saint Realm expert to come to Yunling?" Qing Yi glanced at the old man Shi. As a junior, he stood up to express his dissatisfaction.

"It's at least 7,000 miles from the capital of Xing to here. Old Man Shi came all the way here with good intentions to visit here, and he also came to exchange friendship on behalf of Xing.

The two mountain masters, Shi Ling and Qing Hua, did not show their faces, but sent you to send us back without even showing up, and even used the excuse that they had distinguished guests visiting. Isn't this a disrespectful act?"

"It's my fault!"

He Qianxue looked at Qing Yi with a look of doubt. She didn't dare to look down on Qing Yi, even though he was just a teenager, as she had a second-grade Great Wilderness Dragon Vulture as her mount. "Who is this lord?"

Qing Yi's handsome face was full of sunshine and smile: "I am the Longcheng Guardian appointed by the Marquis of Xing. Longcheng is also the place where I was enfeoffed. Chief He can call me Longcheng Yi."

"Shangdaifu Longchengshou?"

He Qianxue was shocked. She had thought that the young man in front of her was the younger generation of Old Man Shi, but she didn't expect that he would become a senior doctor in a country when he was only in his teens. This was enough to show that this young man was extraordinary.

But she quickly came to her senses, frowned, and protested loudly, "We admit that Longcheng briefly became the territory of Xing State more than 300 years ago, but was abandoned by the rulers and ministers of Xing State only 20 to 30 years later.

Since 320 years ago, Dragon City has been under the jurisdiction of the Mountain Lord. How can Lord Xing disregard the facts and give Dragon City to others?"

He Qianxue looked humble and firm, and turned around and said loudly: "Your Excellency, since the two mountain masters unified Yunling two hundred years ago, this place has been our Yunling land.

The two mountain masters repeatedly instructed their subordinates, as well as the tribes of strange beasts and ferocious birds, not to allow any attacks on the vassal states and people of Xing State to occur.

However, we are unwilling to be hostile to the State of Xing, but it does not mean that we are afraid of the ruler and ministers of the State of Xing. If the Lord of Xing intends to seize the land of Longcheng, everyone in Yunling will fight. "

He Qianxue's expression was solemn, her attitude was extremely resolute and tough, her towering chest rose and fell violently, and it was obvious that what she said was indeed the attitude of the people in Yunling.

Faced with this tough reply, Old Man Shi did not look angry at all. Having lived for more than 120 years, he was used to all kinds of things.

So the old man smiled and said, "Boy Yi, you are the guardian of Dragon City appointed by the prince, so you should negotiate with the chief of the Crane tribe!"

"ah?"

He Qianxue made a sound of surprise. She had learned that this young man was appointed as the Grand Doctor and the Guardian of Dragon City, and had four second-rank Great Wilderness Dragon Vultures following him, and she thought he was given enough importance.

However, she did not expect that Old Man Shi, a powerful saint, also valued the young man's attitude so much. This further demonstrated the determination of the State of Xing to recover the fiefdom of Longcheng, which made her heart even heavier.

The younger a person is, the more impulsive he is. Could it be that the ruler and his ministers of the State of Xing intended to let this young man intensify the conflict, and then have the powerful saints take action to recapture Dragon City?
The more she thought about it, the more worried she became. Suddenly, she looked up and saw Qing Yi smiling. She almost trembled and fell off the white crane's back.

"Haha, you little girl can't even sit steadily!" Old Man Shi waved his hand gently and helped He Qianxue back on the back of the white crane. She was so embarrassed that her face turned red and she kept thanking him.

"As the saying goes, if the name is not right, then the words will not flow!" Qing Yi took advantage of the other party's confusion and said with a smile on his face.

"As the chief of the White Crane Tribe under the command of the two mountain masters, Shi Ling and Qing Hua, there is no problem for Chief He to represent the White Crane Tribe, but how can he make decisions on behalf of the two mountain masters?
If I remember correctly, in addition to the White Crane Tribe, there are more than ten tribes in Yunling, such as the Flying Bear Tribe, the Golden Eagle Tribe, the Blue and White Tribe, and there are also many tribes of exotic beasts and ferocious birds.

Although Old Man Shi is not the king of Xing State, he used to be a great master who protected the country. Now he has broken through the shackles of the first level and advanced to the holy realm. He is qualified to represent Xing State to make any decision.

Therefore, the person that Yunling is dealing with today should be at least Shi Ling or Qing Hua, otherwise, wouldn't that be disrespecting the dignity of a Saint Realm powerhouse?"

"this?"

He Qianxue didn't know how to respond to Qing Yi's words. Drops of sweat gathered on her fair forehead, and white steam emerged in the cold winter.

"Head of the Crane Clan just said that everyone in Yunling would fight for Dragon City. I wonder if this counts as Yunling's official response to the declaration of war.

If we go to war, it doesn't matter. In addition to these four second-grade dragon vultures, I also have four first-grade tree spirits. Together with the Saint Realm expert Old Man Shi, it will be more than enough to take back the Dragon City."

Qing Yi did not give He Qianxue time to think, and slowly changed the topic and said, "Of course, the goodwill expressed by Yunling over the past hundred years is also known to the people of Xing State.

In fact, Old Man Shi and I did not come here to start a war with Yunling. The two families have lived in harmony for hundreds of years and have a long-standing friendship.

If the Longcheng fiefdom is returned to us, it will not only greatly promote the traditional friendship between the two families, but also help the wild people of Yunling to get rid of poverty and become rich, and live a happy life.

In addition, during the construction of Longcheng Fengtu, I can also help various departments to dig roads to connect all villages. Wouldn't it be better for everyone to work together to achieve a well-off life?"

He Qianxue was at a loss after hearing such shameless nonsense. She didn't know how to respond. Just by looking at the mentally ill patient's eyes, she knew that he would never believe Qing Yi's good intentions.

He Qianxue didn't believe that Qing Yi would have so many first-rank tree spirits under his command. Powerful tree spirits often like to live in the mountains and forests. How could they be attached to a young vassal?
However, even if she didn't believe it, it would be useless. As long as there was Old Man Shi, a powerful saint who had surpassed the first level, she had to consider it seriously.

"Head of the Crane Clan, don't hesitate. Shi Ling and Qing Hua must come forward to handle this matter!" Old Man Shi spoke again, in a tone that could not be denied.

"If you don't want to take us to see the Stone Spirit and Blue Flower, then we will go find them ourselves. Although we don't know their exact locations over the years, we still know the general direction."

"Don't be angry, sir. I will send a message to report first, and then I will take you there!"

He Qianxue's expression changed from gloomy to bright, but she finally agreed with helplessness. Before setting off, she sent a fat, fiery red dragon bird ahead to report the news.

After Longque left, He Qianxue rode the white crane reluctantly at the back. Old Man Shi and Qing Yi did not urge her, but instead carefully observed all the changes in Yunling.

After heading straight east and north for two thousand miles from the Dragon City Mound, He Qianxue finally stopped reluctantly. She pointed at the mountain with spiritual energy in front of her and said helplessly, "Over this mountain, the secluded place of the two mountain masters is in front."

"It is such a beautiful and elegant place!" Old Man Shi praised it repeatedly and then introduced it to Qing Yi.

"This area should be the most central part of the entire Yunling Mountains. The north-south mountain range is more than 3,000 miles long at its fastest. I didn't expect that there is such a blessed spiritual land hidden here."
