Evergreen Immortal..

Chapter 373: Give the Wu Clan a Little Shock
The diplomatic envoys stayed in post stations along the way and rarely settled in larger cities.

Several officials in the Honglu Temple were naturally dissatisfied.

But considering that the post station had been arranged in advance and a lot of thought had been put into it, he didn't get angry.

They know it too.

This mission was a very embarrassing thing for the Wu Kingdom.

I won't care about it anymore.

It's really a matter of time. According to legend, when Taizu founded the country, he invited the Wu Kingdom to move north in a similar situation.

After ten days of long journey.

The road ahead gradually became wider.

The terrain also became flat.

The official road, which is two meters wide, is no worse than those in the Central Plains of the Yu State.

A huge city that was as magnificent as the capital of the Yu State appeared before everyone.

The city wall, built with large pieces of dark blue stone and more than tens of feet high, looks from afar. The totems of animal gods hanging on the wall give people a huge sense of oppression.

According to legend, the Wu Kingdom is the descendant of the Beast God.

Every country regards the animal god as its ancestor.

The huge body of the mountain ox slowly entered the capital of Wuting, and there was no hindrance at all under the majestic city gate.

"Is this the Wu Court?"

Even Minister Wang couldn't help but take a few more glances.

Wuting is very prosperous, with wide streets, bustling shops, and the majestic imperial court not far away that looks like a giant dragon, all of which demonstrate the heritage of this city.

In terms of seniority, this city is the best in the world.

It even existed longer than the capital of Yu State.

After arriving at the gate of Wuting City, the Black Witch Guards quietly returned to the camp from one side of the gate.

Just entered the city.

Officials from the Wu Kingdom's Honglu Temple were already waiting behind the door.

An old man with a friendly appearance walked forward and accurately came in front of Minister Wang who had just got off the carriage.

"Sir Wang, you are tired from the journey."

"The accommodation has been arranged, please follow me."

Immediately.

The delegation followed the officials of the Honglu Temple of Wu State to a group of houses in the center of Wu State City.

"This should be the Wu Kingdom's Dianke Office."

Li Rui looked at the luxurious courtyard of the Dianke Office and thought to himself.

The central court of Wu State was not much different from that of Yu State. It also had six ministries, five temples and other government offices. The difference lay more in the management of local areas. The power of the city lord was much greater than that of the prefect of Yu State.

Live in a house with a separate courtyard.

The mission of this mission has been mostly completed.

No surprises and no dangers.

Such situations where a diplomatic mission is full of dangers and one almost loses one's life usually only happen to small countries or hostile countries.

Both Yu and Wu are top powers in the world.

Dare to kill the envoys?

The Holy Emperor is just lacking a reason to take action.

The killing of the delegation is not a shame for one individual, but a shame for the entire country.

There is no need to inform the Wu Kingdom, it is justified to send troops directly.

But it is hard to come by.

Those dramas where diplomatic missions from major powers die in a foreign land are most likely self-directed and self-acted.

"Finally, I have some free time."

Many days of running around.

Even though he had a strong martial arts physique, he could not avoid fatigue.

Just as the maid brought the steaming hot water for washing feet and prepared to soak her feet, her boots were half taken off.

There was a knock at the door.

Li Rui was puzzled.

Logically speaking, the members of the delegation must have been resting due to fatigue, so why would someone come knocking on the door?

With doubt, he pushed the door open.

I saw Xia Xiaotang standing at the door with a smile on her face. She was wearing a light yellow dress and had her hands behind her back. She looked very pretty.

Li Rui was speechless.

Qin Huo's words really came true.

He had just arrived in Wu Country when someone came to his door.

"Is it possible that I am really famous in Wu Country?"

In the midst of random thoughts.

Xia Xiaotang said in a soft voice: "Senior Li, long time no see."

"Miss Xiaotang."

A smile appeared on Li Rui's lips.

Xia Xiaotang: "By the way, did that bad old Qin give you any trouble?"

Li Rui shook his head.

Looking back on the whole journey, Qin Huo was actually quite polite to him and the Yu State delegation.

"Why do you say that, Miss Xiaotang?"

Xia Xiaotang: "Qin Huo is the most staunch opponent of Yu's intervention in the court. He has always maintained that this is an internal affair of Wu State, and that Yu's intervention would damage the country's fortunes."

Li Rui narrowed his eyes.

These matters concerned the important figures in the Wu Kingdom's court, so of course he had no way of knowing them.

'Well hidden.'

After spending many days together, no one in the delegation realized that Qin Huo was actually a pro-war faction.

"It is worthy of the name of poisonous scorpion."

The reason why scorpions are so powerful is not only because they are poisonous, but also because they are sinister.

Sometimes the latter is more important than the former.

"Miss Xiaotang."

As soon as Li Rui's words came to his lips, the smile on his lips froze in an instant.

An old man in a black cloak appeared behind Xia Xiaotang at some point.

Li Rui had no idea of ​​the old man who was already in front of him. It was as if the old man had merged with the world.

A name came to his mind:

"Great wizard!"

The Great Wizard smiled on his face that looked like the bark of an ancient tree: "Li Rui, I have been waiting for you for a long time."

"wait for me?"

Li Rui was shocked.

What virtue and ability? ?
In addition to his noble status, the Great Wizard is also one of the top three strongest people in the world.

The most outstanding person in the world is actually waiting for him?

This was something Li Rui could never have imagined.

The Great Witch glanced at the basin of water in the yard that was still steaming.

"Soaking your feet?"

After a stick of incense.

A strange scene appeared: an old man, a young girl and an old man soaking their feet together in the yard.

"Comfortable."

The Great Wizard leaned back and squinted his eyes comfortably.

Li Rui looked at the great wizard beside him with a strange expression.

I?
Great witch?

Soak your feet together?
Even the best storyteller couldn't come up with such a nonsensical plot.

It turns out that stories require logic, but reality does not.

"The Great Witch is quite approachable?"

But he certainly didn't think that a big shot who could rule the Witch Kingdom would be an easy person to deal with.

To the enemies of East Witch.

The Great Witch is a demon god unrivaled in the world, a great demon who suppresses one side.

He should be thankful that he and the Great Witch are not enemies.

The Great Wizard suddenly asked, "My Soul Pill, does it taste good?"

When I heard the words "Spirit and Soul Pill".

Li Rui's expression froze

After all, it should come.

He said sincerely: "Great Wizard, I did eat the Soul Pill. I am unable to repay you now, but I will definitely do my best to compensate you in the future."

Facing the existence of the Great Witch.

Any cleverness will only appear ridiculous and push yourself into the abyss.

The wisest thing to do is to seek the truth.

The Great Wizard smiled slightly: "Xiaotang has a good eye, you really have the talent to be a beast god."

When the four words "the talent of the beast god" came out of the mouth of the great wizard.

Li Rui was completely upset.

What kind of existence is the Beast God?
In the Wu Kingdom, he is the ancestor god of the universe and the supreme being.

These four words carry so much weight.

Great Witch: "Eat it, eat it. The food is for my silly disciple. How she uses it is her own business."

There was a flash of surprise in Li Rui's eyes.

The great wizard is quite nice.

Li Rui quickly said: "Thank you, senior, and thank you, Miss Xiaotang."

Xia Xiaotang, who was sitting on the other side of the Great Witch, smiled complacently.

"Master, you should trust my judgment now."

The Great Wizard nodded:

"It's really good."

"You have practiced the external skills very well. This internal skill is also quite interesting."

Li Rui was shocked.

Under the Great Wizard's glance, it seemed that nothing could be hidden from the other party.

But the Great Wizard chuckled: "It seems that you have a good relationship with Gu Changsheng."

Li Rui was surprised and didn't know why the great witch asked this.

"Master Gu once invited me to be a guest of Wenxian Tower."

The Great Wizard chuckled: "That's right, Gu Changsheng took action to cover up your aura. Even for this old man, it is difficult to see through you completely."

"You're quite popular, boy."

"The third girl gave you the Black Dragon Order. It seems that she has high hopes for you."

Li Rui said modestly: "It is the Third Princess who thinks highly of the younger generation."

Great Wizard: "No, you deserve it."

"The third girl is naturally arrogant, and those who catch her eye are all extremely talented."

"Then you can continue to hold the Black Dragon Order. From now on, you will be a friend of my Wu Clan."

Hear the words of the great witch.

Li Rui's heart almost skipped a beat.

Although the Great Wizard may not have the ability to make his words come true, but now that this sentence comes out of his mouth, he can walk around the Wizard Kingdom with all his might from now on!
"Thank you, senior."

Li Rui hurriedly saluted.

The Great Wizard waved his hands, and his words gradually became vague: "I am old, and my ears are soft. Those little guys are clamoring for restoration every day."

"They don't know how deep the water is."

"I watched them grow up, and I just can't bear to do that."

"But they should also know that there are always people better than them."

Li Rui listened quietly at the side.

He remained silent, waiting for the great witch's words.

The Great Witch continued:

"Now that you are all here, stay here for a few more days. The Wu Clan's grand ceremony will be held in a few days. It won't be too late for you to go back after the ceremony."

The Great Witch paused, then looked at Li Rui with a smile:

"Those guys don't know how high the sky is and how deep the earth is. Sir Li, please give them a little shock when the time comes."
