Evergreen Immortal..

Chapter 404 Conspiracy [Monthly Ticket Plus, Two-in-One]

Take it easy!

Seeing these four words, Li Rui's pupils shrank slightly.

Cheap things seem normal.

But in fact, there is a lot to learn.

The Holy Emperor clearly promised him the position of imperial envoy in just a few words.

This means that Li Rui has absolute say in recruiting the longhorn beetle Zhu He.

The imperial envoy has no rank.

But all the local officials had to deal with it carefully because of the Holy Emperor represented by the imperial envoy.

So even though it has no quality, it can easily mobilize huge amounts of energy.

Li Rui's mouth corners slightly raised.

With the Holy Emperor's order, things will be much simpler afterwards.

The next morning.

Li Rui took Wei Ming and Tan Hu and rode out of the city at full speed.

We arrived at Changqing Peak that day.

Life is still leisurely.

Although Li Rui received the Holy Emperor's order, he was not in a hurry to find the Longicorn Zhuha, but continued to practice as usual.

Day by day passed.

I waited for a whole month.

He then slowly walked down the mountain and came to a corner of Shiwan Mountain.

When he came to an open area, he saw a huge scarlet toad as tall as a man appear before him.

Obviously.

This is what the longhorn beetle red clam looks like after it changes its shape.

Otherwise, if he revealed his true form, it would probably be seen from miles away.

Actually, this was his first time to actually meet the longicorn red clam.

Li Rui's mouth corners slightly raised.

He had heard that the disciple named Song Ming had died for a legitimate reason and no one suspected him.

Today, the longicorn Zhuha even shrunk down to meet him.

It turns out to be a demon who understands demonic affairs.

rare.

Li Rui had fought against too many monsters, and all of them were unruly. There were not many like the big toad in front of him.

"Why did you come?"

The longicorn red clam muttered.

That day, it was waiting so anxiously.

It's like living a year in a day.

Who said it couldn't stay in the Purple Gold Palace for even a day?

The monster can waste time forever and time can pass very quickly, but if it sees hope, it will continue to suffer and time will become very slow.

This period of time.

Even my favorite purple-eyed dragonfly doesn’t taste good.

Li Rui smiled slightly: "I said that this matter is difficult to handle, and it certainly cannot be completed in a short time."

The longicorn red clam curled its lips.

But his eyes were brighter.

When the Blood Shadow Ancestor wanted to capture Li Rui before, it had already known that Li Rui was a cautious person and he said it would not be done in a short time.

What it means is, it’s done!

Longniu Zhuha quickly said, "Hey, brother Li, give me something straightforward."

Li Rui took out a letter from his sleeve slowly and calmly.

But he did not show it to the longicorn red clam.

"This is the handwritten order of our country's Holy Emperor. His Majesty has agreed. If you sincerely submit, you can be named the God of Qinghe River."

Hear the Qinghe River God.

The longicorn red clam was immediately unhappy.

Although its only request is to live a leisurely life and not be used as a mount.

But Qinghe is just a small insect in its eyes.

I heard that the river god of Qinghe River is now a small loach.

Just as Tianniu Zhuha was about to argue, Li Rui changed the subject: "Brother Wa, I also feel that the Qinghe River God is too wronged, so I am helping him to fight for it, but the court has its own rules. After all, you are a surrendered general, and your position is too high, which will definitely make some people unhappy, and it will be difficult for Your Majesty to do it."

"unless."

Longicorn Zhuha knew that what Li Rui was going to say next was the focus of this meeting.

Li Rui narrowed his eyes slightly:

"Unless Brother Frog can make up for his mistakes with his merits."

The mouth of the longicorn red clam was wide open.

It understood that the Yu Kingdom court wanted it to help deal with the remnants of the Zijin Palace and called it a traitor.

No, it had already defected.

Of course I don't care about that.

"Easy to say."

"Brother Li, I will do whatever you tell me to do."

Li Rui was happy.

The longicorn red clam is a second-grade great monster. In the past, he would have treated them like ants. It is not as easy as calling them brothers now.

The more he looked at it, the more he thought the Longicorn Red Clam was good.

It is not easy to find such a powerful monster that can bend and stretch.

It was this character that made Li Rui want to act as a matchmaker.

Li Rui coughed lightly and said, "Brother Frog, you know that Blood Shadow and I have a grudge over a treasure. I am a petty person, so I must avenge myself and get the treasure back."

There were more smiles on the face of the longicorn red clam.

It had long guessed that Li Rui would say this.

"It is said that officials in the State of Yu are petty and narrow-minded, and it is true."

He said this in his heart, but he was more positive: "Brother Li, don't worry, I will take care of this matter."

Li Rui nodded with satisfaction.

He threw away the Thousand Souls Banner on his own initiative.

But he always kept the revenge of Blood Shadow Ancestor for stealing his treasure in his heart.

Revenge for the treasure!

He tampered with the Thousand Souls Banner.

So it can be sensed that after such a long time, Old Ancestor Blood Shadow still has no intention of refining the Thousand Souls Banner.

But he did not dare to underestimate this second-grade strong man who had been famous for a long time.

If time drags on too long, it is possible that the Blood Shadow Ancestor will really erase his traces and refine the Thousand Souls Banner.

By then he will realize it too late and might attack him again.

The appearance of the longicorn red clam gave him the opportunity.

"Brother Frog, in three days, I will have someone join you. How much merit you can accomplish will depend on your sincerity."

Li Rui said with a smile.

"I understand, I understand."

Longicorn Zhuha nodded repeatedly and said, "Brother Li, you should show me a way so that I can have a goal."

It knows humans very well.

Li Rui must have something hidden.

Don't let it make a contribution only to be rewarded with a position not much better than the Qinghe River God. That would be a huge loss.

Some things are better made clear.

Li Rui smiled even more.

The smarter the longicorn Zhuha is, the more confident he feels when doing things.

He did not speak directly, but slowly opened the Holy Emperor's handwritten edict in his hand, and then revealed two words "Chijiang".

When I saw the word Chijiang.

The longicorn red clam suddenly perked up.

Chijiang is a big river in the State of Yu, and the status of the God of Chijiang River is even higher. If it can sit on the position of the God of Chijiang River, its majesty will be no less than when it was a pillar in the Zijin Palace.

"I found the right person."

The longicorn red clam couldn't help laughing.

It is well-versed in human history and knows too well that when it comes to surrender, the person who acts as a go-between is the most important.

Some generals of a country became idlers after surrendering and died in depression.

Some, on the contrary, took advantage of the situation to rise and become extremely powerful.

The difference has a lot to do with the identity of the person speaking.

Li Rui made it very satisfied.

"Don't worry, I'll follow Brother Li's instructions on everything."

Li Rui: "Okay, wait for my news."

Done.

He turned and left.

soon.

Admiral Zhou Dinghai will bring his elite troops to Shiwan Mountain, and together with the Longniu Zhuha, they will cooperate from inside and outside.

The Zijin Palace will certainly suffer heavy losses.

One hundred thousand mountains.

In a hidden cave.

Ancestor Blood Shadow sat cross-legged on a stone platform with a cold look in his eyes.

"Damn it!"

"Where exactly is the problem?"

His roar echoed in the cave.

Ever since he obtained the Thousand Souls Banner, he has been in seclusion.

But several years have passed.

There was still no progress in refining the Thousand Souls Banner. Every time he tried to subdue the evil spirits in the Thousand Souls Banner, his soul would be rejected.

Those vengeful spirits would rather die than obey.

But if all the resentful spirits were to be wiped out, the Thousand Souls Banner would be wasted.

The Blood Shadow Patriarch took a deep breath.

"There's no rush."

"According to the records in the technique, this step is the most difficult. As long as we can subdue these evil spirits, the rest will be much easier."

Just as he was about to continue refining the Thousand Souls Banner—

The voice of a disciple from the Purple Gold Palace came from outside the cave.

"Ancestor, the person you are looking for is here."

Upon hearing this, Blood Shadow Ancestor narrowed his eyes.

He put away the Thousand Souls Banner and then walked out.

Finally found the people from the Temple of All Laws.

"Are you Qi Ying?"

Outside the cave, a young man in white was looking at the Blood Shadow Ancestor with a smile.

Ancestor Xueying: "The envoy of the Wanfa Palace?" "I don't dare to be the envoy, but I am indeed a member of the Wanfa Palace."

There was a flash of surprise in the Blood Shadow Ancestor's eyes.

This was the first time he had seen such a humble exiled immortal.

"My name is Ji Lei. I wonder if Senior Si is here."

The young man named Ji Lei asked.

When he heard the name of Senior Si, Patriarch Xueying knew that Ji Lei was talking about Si Feng who had been captured and taken to the capital.

Originally, he asked his men to secretly detain the banished immortal in the Hall of Ten Thousand Laws.

Unexpectedly, Ji Lei came to me on his own initiative.

But... the strength seems to be average.

It's not that his spirit is clouded like Si Feng and Sheng Daoren, but that he only has the strength of the second rank. It can be seen from the fact that the other party calls Si Feng "senior".

The Blood Shadow Ancestor narrowed his eyes slightly, but still said:

"Palace Master Si has been framed and is now imprisoned in the capital's dark prison."

Hear the words.

Ji Lei's expression changed, and he whispered, "Oops, there's some trouble."

Immediately he said, "Fellow Daoist Xueying, I will report this matter to the palace first. There must be a way."

A look of joy flashed in the Blood Shadow Ancestor's eyes.

If the young man in front of him can contact the Wanfa Palace in the upper realm, then the possibility of Si Feng being rescued is much greater.

"Thank you for your help."

Say it.

The Blood Shadow Patriarch personally invited Ji Lei into the cave.

There is actually a palace hidden inside.

Although the Zijin Palace was desolate, the proper etiquette for entertaining guests was still maintained.

Several graceful girls quickly surrounded the young man.

soon.

The lascivious music echoed in the palace.

"General Zhou."

Li Rui took two quick steps and met the group of people coming from Qinghe.

Nie Siming and Yuan Xiong were among them.

The leader was none other than Admiral Zhou Dinghai.

Yes, Li Rui directly invited General Fu Bo.

This is the power of the imperial envoy.

Zhou Dinghai looked at Li Rui and said with a satisfied smile: "Master Li is really capable. I didn't misjudge him."

The state of Yu was troubled by the secret attacks of the remnants of the Purple Gold Palace.

This time, Li Rui successfully instigated the rebellion of the longhorn beetle Zhuha, who was once one of the three pillars of the Purple Gold Palace. With the cooperation from inside and outside, he will surely make the remnants of the Purple Gold Palace pay a heavy price, and will also be able to deter the remnants in other places.

It is a great achievement.

Li Rui is still his subordinate.

The credit of his subordinates is naturally his credit.

Of course, the more Zhou Dinghai looked at Li Rui, the more he liked him.

At this time.

Three figures also walked out.

They were the three disciples of Great Master Qingding.

Li Rui introduced: "General Zhou, these three are disciples of the Great Immortal Qing Ding, Taoist Xuanyu, Taoist Chunxuzi, and Taoist Ziyang. This time they are working together to suppress the remnants of the Purple Gold Palace."

Zhou Dinghai clasped his fists and said, "Master Qingding is so righteous. I will report this to His Majesty."

Taoist Xuanyu, who was holding a fishing rod, laughed and said, "The Purple Gold Palace is disturbing the world, and everyone should kill it. It is also a blessing for our Qingwei Sect to be able to contribute."

The Yu Kingdom court was troubled by the remnants of the Zijin Palace.

The same is true for the Qingwei Sect.

When Taoist Xuanyu heard Li Rui say that the Yu Kingdom court was going to take action against the Zijin Palace, he personally brought two junior brothers to help.

Chunxuzi had long hated the remnants of the Purple Gold Palace.

He urged: "There is no time to lose, we'd better get started quickly."

"Okay, let's go."

Zhou Dinghai nodded and looked at Li Rui.

Li Rui understood what he meant.

He immediately led a group of people and rushed towards the depths of Shiwan Mountain.

It took a full hour to walk.

The group then arrived at a corner of Shiwan Mountain.

This place is rarely visited all year round and there are almost no traces of human beings.

It looks like just an ordinary small valley.

Taoist Xuanyu let out a light exclamation.

"What a brilliant formation."

If Li Rui hadn't pointed it out, he wouldn't have noticed that there was an illusion array set up here.

"No wonder I couldn't find it."

Chunxuzi's eyes were full of excitement.

kill!

Many disciples of the Qingwei Sect died in the attack on the Zijin Palace. He had been holding his breath for a long time. In the past, the enemy was in the dark and we were in the light. Now that the situation has finally reversed, he can no longer hold back and wants to start a killing spree.

Shame before the snow.

Li Rui then spoke up: "That day, the red bull clam is already waiting inside the formation. Once I crush the jade talisman, it will sense it again and open the formation."

Hear the words.

Everyone's eyes lit up.

If we can break the formation silently, we will be able to catch the Purple Gold Palace off guard.

Then Li Rui took out a jade talisman from his sleeve.

Use a little force on your hands.

With a crisp cracking sound, the jade talisman shattered in Li Rui's hands.

Just a moment.

Sure enough, I saw a corner being lifted up.

Seeing this, everyone became even more excited.

Zhou Dinghai was in no hurry to go in. His eyes glowed with green light. A full quarter of an hour passed before he spoke: "There are no ambush. Get ready to attack."

A general from Annan Town complimented him at the right time:

"General Zhou is really thoughtful."

Obviously.

Zhou Dinghai did not completely believe in the longhorn beetle red clam.

If the Longicorn Red Clam turned against them and there were people ambushing them in the formation, they would surely suffer heavy casualties tonight.

Zhou Dinghai just used a special eye technique.

Able to briefly see the scene inside the formation.

The group immediately began to act.

Those who came were the elite among the elite, and the weakest were innate warriors. They turned into phantoms and rushed in from the corner of the opened formation in the blink of an eye.

Just went in.

Then they saw a huge scarlet toad, as tall as a person, grinning at everyone.

Zhou Dinghai nodded to Longniu Zhu He with satisfaction and said, "Brother Zhu He is very understanding of justice. Your Majesty will not treat the meritorious officials unfairly."

The corners of the longicorn red clam's mouth were almost stretched to its ears:

"In fact, I have been in Yu State for many years, but I have prevented rivers from bursting their banks several times."

Hear this.

Zhou Dinghai asked in surprise, "Thirty-one years ago, was it Brother Zhu He who caused the dike collapse in Jiangzhou?"

Longicorn Red Clam: "It is this frog."

Zhou Dinghai clapped his hands and chuckled: "Brother Zhu He is really great. It is a blessing for Dayu to have such a kind and benevolent river god."

The man and the demon praised each other for a long time.

Chunxuzi couldn't bear to watch it anymore and couldn't help but urge: "Time is running out, let's get started quickly."

"reasonable."

"That fellow Blood Shadow is right there. I will capture him and perform a song for the Holy Emperor!"

The originally peaceful valley suddenly became chaotic.

The masters of Yu State and Qingwei Sect have already taken action.

Taoist Xuanyu swept the fishing rod, which was a hundred feet long, and large areas of buildings were reduced to ashes. Countless elders and disciples of the Purple Gold Palace died tragically in an instant.

"Zhou Dinghai!"

"Black fish!"

The Blood Shadow Ancestor, who was refining the Thousand Soul Banner, heard the noise.

Just walked out.

Then I saw Zhou Dinghai and Taoist Xuanyu killing people.

Just for a moment.

Half of the palaces in the Purple Gold Palace collapsed.

The Blood Shadow Ancestor let out a long roar.

The whole person turned into a ball of blood mist and rushed towards Zhou Dinghai.

The two great celestial realm masters immediately started fighting each other.

The battle was so fierce that the sky was dark and the earth was dark.

another side.

Two phantoms flashed by and rushed into the cave where the Blood Shadow Ancestor was.

in a blink.

Li Rui and the longicorn red clam appeared in the cave.

The longhorn beetle red clam laughed:
"Brother Li, take it as you like. Don't be polite. This place is guarded by Benwa. Even Blood Shadow can't get in."

"Don't worry, I'll pretend I didn't see anything that happened in the cave."

Seeing the longhorn beetle Zhuha is so considerate

A satisfied smile appeared on Li Rui's lips.

"Then I'll trouble you, Brother Frog."

Then I saw that the longicorn red clam really raised a barrier to separate the soul from the cave.

Li Rui casually threw out from his sleeve a sixth-level soul-closing talisman that he had bought at a high price from the Qingwei Sect, and only then was he completely relieved.

Close your eyes and sense it slightly.

He raised his right hand suddenly and tore at the nothingness in front of him.

Then he saw a white banner appear before his eyes.

Li Rui smiled even more.

The Blood Shadow Ancestor hid very well, but unfortunately, he had a spiritual connection with the Thousand Souls Banner, so he couldn't hide at all.

Just a moment.

The Thousand Souls Banner was refined by him again.

It turned into a small flag and flew into the sleeve.

The Blood Shadow Ancestor had been unable to perfect it for years, but he only used one breath!
