People forge swords in Lizhu, childhood sweetheart Ruan Xiu falls in love with Ning Yao

Chapter 57: Involving Zhengyang Mountain, Ruan Qiong in Seclusion

There were more than twenty people standing scattered on the hillside. Their clothes were different, but their faces and eyes looked like they were cast in the same mold.

A burly man was kneeling on one knee, carefully examining a stiff corpse, which was Li Hou's.

Queen Dali, who had changed into a cotton dress like a common woman, walked slowly up the hillside, followed by the woman holding a sword.

After a while, the white-faced old man flew over, landed and saluted, saying:

"My Lady, we have found Hu Yinglin. He died more than ten miles away, and his body is nowhere to be found."

Queen Dali, who hated the stench of corpses, covered her nose. After hearing this, she suddenly narrowed her eyes and asked the burly man who was examining the corpse in a heavy nasal voice:

"Wang Yifu, what do you say?"

"My Lady, that fatal sword not only broke the golden body, but also shattered the internal organs, and was able to chase and kill another person more than ten miles away. Only a sword cultivator of the eighth realm can do that."

Wang Yifu stood up and looked at the hideous ravine in front of him with serious eyes. The sharp sword energy on it had not yet dissipated. With his physique, he felt a faint tingling sensation.

This is why he said that Chu Ci came out with a sword, not a fist.

"Haha, a fourteen or fifteen-year-old eighth-level swordsman, what a great disciple of a saint! I underestimated this young boy. No wonder my son suffered at his hands, and no wonder Ruan Qiong was so confident."

Upon hearing this, Queen Dali sneered repeatedly, the anger in her heart reached its peak, and her murderous intent was difficult to conceal.

She originally did not take Chu Ci, a young man, seriously, thinking that sending out an eighth-level cultivator who was comparable to a sword cultivator, plus a seventh-level golden body warrior, would be like using a butcher knife to kill a fly.

But unexpectedly, it gave Chu Ci a head.

But she always remembered a wonderful thing her uncle said.

When dealing with any enemy, never give him a head.

As a result, now she has become such a fool.

"Xu Hunran, Yang Hua, Wang Yifu, the three of you, attack us together."

The extremely angry Queen Dali directly named the three most capable generals around her.

"Yes!"

The three men received the order and were about to leave.

"slow!"

Queen Dali suddenly spoke again and stopped the three people because she remembered the latest information.

"I heard that there is another one among them who is armed with a knife. Have you checked it out? Don't let another expert suddenly appear."

Queen Dali, who had given away a wave of heads because she was unclear about Chu Ci's strength, didn't want to make the same mistake again.

"My Lady, there is no result yet!"

The sword-holding woman named Yang Hua shook her head and said:

"For this kind of thing, we can only rely on Dali's own intelligence agencies to find clues, and it is not convenient for Your Majesty to interfere in border intelligence affairs..."

The young woman stopped here and said no more.

This involves the undercurrents at the highest level of Dali's government.

Upon hearing this, Queen Dali frowned and stopped to think deeply, considering what to do next.

"My queen, how about the three of us give it a try first?"

Seeing this, the white-faced man Xu Hunran suggested.

He didn't think that the man with the sword could be that strong, because there were only a few people in the upper five realms in the entire Aquarius State, and it was certain that the man with the sword was definitely not one of them.

Therefore, even if the man with the sword was at the ninth level of Golden Elixir, he could not stop the three of them from ambushing him.

If the man with the sword was at the tenth level Nascent Soul, even if they failed to rob and kill him, they would still have the confidence to retreat.

"No, no, no, I almost forgot something very interesting." At this moment, Queen Dali had a good idea.

"Previous intelligence said that the mountain-moving ape in Zhengyang Mountain died at the hands of Ruan Qiong because it injured Ruan Qiong's disciples. Why can't we make good use of this information?"

Previously, Queen Dali thought that Chu Ci could be easily dealt with, so this information was useless to her and she did not take it too seriously. But now it is different.

"Your Majesty, are you saying that we should lure the swordsman from Zhengyang Mountain down to rob and kill them?"

When the three heard this, they understood instantly. Letting Zhengyangshan take action would be a win-win situation for everyone, and the only one who would not suffer any loss would be Zhengyangshan. They not only did not suffer any loss, but also could test the strength of the man with the knife and regain the initiative.

"The old ape who had protected Zhengyang Mountain for a thousand years died at the hands of Ruan Qiong. How could he not want revenge? It was just that he was intimidated by Ruan Qiong's military sage power and the Fengxue Temple behind him, so he didn't have the courage.

In this case, I will lend him the courage now."

A perfect plan gradually came into Queen Dali's mind.

He would first lead the troops in Zhengyang Mountain to kill Chu Ci and the others, and then he would go back to ask His Majesty for advice and set up an ambush in secret. When Ruan Qiong came out to save his apprentice, he would kill Ruan Qiong at the same time to eliminate the trouble forever.

After all, it was he who planned to kill Ruan Qiong's apprentice, and keeping Ruan Qiong would eventually be a trouble.

Queen Dali knew that after the White Jade Palace in the capital was built to the twelfth floor, her husband, Emperor Dali, had always wanted the head of a saint or immortal to intimidate the monks in all of Aquarius State and build the reputation of the Dali Dynasty.

If I had planned to help His Majesty get the saintly head of Ruan Qiong, wouldn't I have gone from using the power of the court to avenge my personal vengeance to becoming a caring and good wife who relieved His Majesty's worries?
In this way, this personal revenge will not only not damage the relationship between her and His Majesty, but will greatly increase her weight in His Majesty's heart.

Kill two birds with one stone!

“Tu Hunran, contact Zhengyang Mountain immediately and tell them that if they can’t send me one Nascent Soul Sword Cultivator, they must at least send me three Golden Core Sword Cultivators. After that, Dali will fully support Zhengyang Mountain in becoming a “Zong” sect.”

If a sect wants to be named "Zong", it needs at least one person in the upper fifth realm to be in charge. Zhengyang Mountain cannot meet this requirement now, so it can only be called Zhengyang Mountain, not Zhengyang Sect.

But if there is the support of the Dali Dynasty and the current foundation of Zhengyang Mountain, there may be a possibility of success within a few decades.

Queen Dali didn't believe that Zhengyangshan was not tempted.

"Yes!"

Tu Hunran took the order and left.

"go!"

Queen Dali also immediately brought people back to the capital to ask Emperor Dali to set up an ambush.

……

"Dad, what happened to Brother Chu Ci?"

When Ruan Xiu saw Ruan Qiong coming back, she hurriedly asked him about it. She was scared by Ruan Qiong's sudden pursuit of Chu Ci just now.

"It should be a friend, not an enemy."

The active sword energy in the sword-raising gourd proved that nothing had happened to its owner Wei Jin. At the same time, looking at the attitude of his little fox towards the man with the knife, the combination of the two was enough to put Ruan Qiong's mind at ease.

"That's good!"

Ruan Xiu's heart finally settled down.

"Xiu Xiu, Daddy is going to be in seclusion from now on, so be careful."

I have learned sword-making skills from Lao Jian Tiao for nearly ten years, and I have just received instruction from Aliang. It is time to reach the twelfth realm, otherwise I will be left out of everything by that brat.

For example, if he is not allowed to intervene this time, it is because they think that his master is not strong enough and they are afraid that he will die.

Ruan Xiu smiled and said:

"My daughter wishes Daddy to ascend to the immortal throne!"

"Okay, Zhu Yan's father accepts it!"
