Eternal Sword

Chapter 692: Easy to Understand
Chen Tang ran out of the city and soon caught up with the fat old man and his group.

Seeing Chen Tang return to Beijing just for two boxes of gold, silver and jewelry, everyone couldn't help but feel amused.

What kind of identity does Chen Tang have as the Demon Lord of Xiling?

What he did before, the battle of Liangzhou, the battle of Heishui Kingdom, including today's battle of Qianjing, which one did not shock the world?
It was this person who ran to the palace and took out two boxes of jewelry.

Many people seemed to think of something and subconsciously looked at the fat old man.

The fat old man was a little scared when he was stared at. He stared with his eyes wide open and shouted, "Why are you all staring at me? I used to be the biggest thief in the world, but I have never done such a shameful thing!"

"He is just like this, I didn't teach him that!"

"That is, that is."

Everyone quickly echoed.

Yuan Qingmu was very happy.

As long as Xiaotang doesn't come back with a woman and is just carrying two boxes of gold, silver and jewelry, so what?

This is nothing.

The others rode war horses, and there was nowhere to put the two boxes of gold, silver and jewelry.

Chen Tang tied a box of jewelry to a rope and placed it on the little white ape's back.

He originally wanted to tie a box for Xuetuaner as well, but the little white ape didn't want Xuetuaner to get tired, so he gestured a few times, indicating that he could carry two boxes.

"You are tall and strong, please work hard for a while."

Chen Tang handed both boxes to the little white ape.

"Who did you learn this from?"

In front of everyone, the fat old man frowned and shouted, "A thief never leaves empty-handed. You have been causing trouble in Kyoto and robbing the execution ground openly. Why do you still do such a shameful thing?"

"I hired a few boats from the boat gang, but the boat fees haven't been paid yet."

Chen Tang said: "Besides, with such a large group of people traveling across the ocean, they must have some capital to start their business."

He didn't feel ashamed and just treated it as touching a corpse.

Everyone continued on their way.

"Qing'er, is your father okay?"

On the way, Madam Lu said, "Over the years, I have been imprisoned by your uncle-master, without seeing the sun, and I have been worried about you."

As soon as they escaped from danger, Mrs. Lu became worried about Qin Xi.

Lu Qing fell silent.

"What happened to him?"

Mrs. Lu felt nervous when she saw that Lu Qing looked a little strange, and asked hurriedly.

Lu Qing was silent for a while before saying, "Mom, just think of him as dead."

"What are you talking about, he..."

Mrs. Lu frowned and was about to say something, but stopped.

After a long silence, Mrs. Lu said, "He finally chose to leave, right?"

"Mom, why are you..."

Lu Qing was a little surprised.

Madam Lu said, "Mother has been with him for decades, how could she not understand him?"

After saying this, Mrs. Lu felt lost and remained silent for a long time.

"There are many unfaithful people in the world."

Yuan Qingmu sighed, suddenly turned to look at Chen Tang, and asked, "Xiaotang, how did you become the Demon Lord of Xiling? I only heard that you were very famous in Nanxia and were very close to the Jade Flute Fairy."

"Cough cough!"

Chen Tang coughed twice.

Yuan Qingmu's change of topic was too sudden. In the previous sentence, he was still lamenting about the unfaithful man, but in the next sentence he directly asked him about it.

Chen Tang calmed down and said casually, "As people of Jianghu, when we are out there, it is inevitable that we will help each other when we encounter difficulties. When I jumped into the East China Sea, I survived the disaster and floated to the Hermit Island. Fortunately, I met Miss Ye."

Yuan Qingmu blinked his eyes, full of envy, and said: "When you meet an old friend in a foreign land, there must be a lot of interesting things happening. Tell me about them."

Chen Tang felt a headache and was sweating profusely.

Fortunately, between him and Ye Yushi, they acted out of affection but stayed within the bounds of propriety, and they did not do anything beyond the rules.

Chen Tang briefly recounted his experiences in Hermit Island and later in Nanxia.

Of course, he didn't mention the agreement he made with Ye Yushi a hundred years later.

He is not stupid.

"It doesn't sound like anything."

Yuan Qingmu muttered.

Chen Tang breathed a sigh of relief.

Yuan Qingmu asked again, "What's going on with Xiling Demon Lord?"

Chen Tang then gave a brief account of how he was captured by the Demon Lord and how he escaped from the Demon Sect.

Of course, he just passed over the entanglement between him and Rosa during their escape.

Yuan Qingmu always felt that something was wrong. He asked thoughtfully, "From what you said, it seems that you and the Saintess of Xiling are not very familiar with each other, but the way she looks at you is a little unusual."

"is it?"

Chen Tang played dumb.

Yuan Qingmu leaned closer and asked in a low voice: "Are you hiding something from me between you and her? Tell me the truth and I won't be angry."

It would be strange if I wasn't angry.

Chen Tang complained inwardly, thought for a moment, and said, "It's nothing, actually. I just had a profound exchange with my senior sister on martial arts, and we exchanged ideas and interacted with each other, and we both gained a lot."

This is not true.

After Chen Tang finished speaking, his face didn't turn red and his heart didn't beat fast.

Yuan Qingmu stared at Chen Tang for a while before he burst into laughter and said, "Okay, I'll let you go."

Chen Tang felt relieved.

Just now, the consumption was even greater than fighting against several masters.

The crowd rode fast horses, traveling day and night, and finally arrived at a deserted ferry in Yanzhou in a short time.

There were seven large ships anchored on the sea not far away.

Seeing Chen Tang and his companions show up, the seven large ships slowly approached the shore.

Everyone dismounted.

Li Zhongmou asked, "Brother Chen, after this battle, Daqian may not be able to hold out for much longer. With so many heroes vying for supremacy in Northern Shenzhou, are you really not going to stay here and build your career?"

"No." Chen Tang shook his head and said, "It is important for people to know themselves. I can't fight for world domination."

Back then, on the snow-capped mountains, Emperor Wu often stared at the three thousand snow-capped ridges in a daze.

At first, Chen Tang didn't know what Emperor Wu was thinking.

Later, he learned that the souls of countless soldiers who guarded the border during the Wu Dynasty were buried there.

Fighting for world domination is not like fighting in the arena.

War is so cruel.

Once he embarks on this path, who knows how many of Chen Tang’s friends will die on the battlefield.

How many of these people around here will be left?

Emperor Wu was invincible in his time, and was countless times more powerful than him.

But in the end, he was still plotted against, his plan failed, the Wu Dynasty was destroyed, and his relatives died tragically.

Dao Zong never showed up.

This person is the biggest hidden danger!

As long as Dao Zong is alive, even if there are competitions for the throne of China, no matter who finally becomes the hegemon of the world, they will probably not escape the fate of being controlled by Dao Zong.

Chen Tang didn't want to become like Emperor Wu, so one day, he was looking at the corpses of his relatives and friends, feeling sad.

What he had to do was to prepare a retreat route for Yuan Qingmo, Mei Yingxue and the others, so that they could temporarily leave Shenzhou and leave this vortex of the abyss.

Before this, Chen Tang had asked Mei Yingxue about her feelings.

In fact, after the Black Water King was killed by him, Mei Yingxue lost her target and didn't want to live in fear every day with Yizhimei.

So, she agreed to Chen Tang's proposal without much hesitation.

At the same time, she also gave Yizhimei and the others some time to think about it.

If anyone wants to cross the sea with her, they can come together on the boat.

She would not force anyone who wanted to stay and make a career in China.

Wei Qun, Wang Yanli, Chi Yun and others stayed in Pingzhou, on the one hand to preside over the overall situation, and on the other hand to prepare for this matter.

Among the seven large ships, there were many people standing on the deck of one of them.

When they were closer, Chen Tang and others could see clearly that these people were all from Yizhimei, and were led by Wei Qun, Wang Yanli and others.

"Boss, besides the four of us, there are probably hundreds of brothers who choose to continue to follow you."

Wei Qun got off the boat and said something to Mei Yingxue.

When they left Pingzhou, there were still more than 5,000 people left in Yizhimei.

Now, only a few hundred people have come.

Wang Yanli said: "It's not that the other brothers don't want to come with us, but after all, it's hard to leave our homeland. The thought of crossing the ocean is still hard for most brothers to accept."

"Moreover, with the advent of troubled times, many brothers also want to establish their careers in China."

Mei Yingxue nodded and said, "Well, everyone has their own aspirations."

Yuan Qingmo and others boarded the ship one after another.

In fact, he had wanted to leave the court for a long time.

In Yuan Qingmo's eyes, the imperial court was simply the dirtiest place in the world.

It wasn't until today that he felt a sense of relief.

After Mrs. Lu and Lu Qing got on the boat, they looked back and recalled the decades they had spent here, with a trace of nostalgia and reluctance in their eyes.

But this place has become a sad place for both mother and daughter.

It’s better to leave and start a new life.

Of course, some people stayed.

For example, the fat old man only came to the capital to rescue people this time, so he naturally would not follow everyone to the three states of East China Sea.

Li Zhongmou, Li Shuhu and Li Junqing, brother and sister, would not leave on the boat either.

After all, everything of the Li family is in Liangzhou.

Chang Sun Ming also wants to stay in Shenzhou.

Yongzhou, one of the Nine Provinces of Daqian, is within the sphere of influence of the Changsun family. After today, he will have to rush back to Yongzhou to deal with possible changes in Shenzhou in the future.

The territories of Liangzhou and Yongzhou border each other.

By then, the Li family and the Changsun family will join forces to become a force in Northern Shenzhou that cannot be ignored!

Those who should get on board have already gotten on board, and those who should stay have also made their choice.

Everyone said goodbye.

"Brother Chen, will we see each other again in the future?"

Li Jun looked at Chen Tang and asked softly.

"Probably so."

Chen Tang smiled and said, "After I settle them there, I have to come back."

At present, the outcome of the transformation battle in Qingzhou is still unknown.

But no matter who wins or loses, the Xuantian Sect will not give up.

After this battle, although most of the Xuantian Sect's leaders were killed or wounded, their foundation was not damaged.

The core of Xuantian Sect is Sect Master Xuantian and the two guardians on his left and right.

As long as these three people are not dead, Xuantian Sect will launch a counterattack at any time!
What's more, there is Dao Zong who has never shown up.

"Buzz!"

At this moment, a long roar was heard from the sea.

This is the voice of the Kraken.

Not far away, a huge monster emerged on the sea, like a huge island, rushing towards this side rapidly!
Everyone on the boat was horrified.

"Turn around, quick, quick!"

"Go quickly, go quickly!"

The captain yelled loudly, and the crew members were in a panic.

But the giant monster from the East China Sea came with great force and speed.

With the power of this giant monster from the East China Sea, if it hits them like this, all seven large ships will be smashed to pieces.

They all have martial arts skills, but if they are swallowed by the giant monster of the East China Sea, they will be in great danger.

At this moment, another howling sound suddenly came from the shore, echoing the roar of the East China Sea Kraken.
