Madam, please listen to my explanation.

Chapter 57 Friends should help each other.
Zhao Jingqian was furious and immediately tried to force his way in!
He was the mighty Emperor Yan, the supreme ruler!

How can we endure such humiliation?

He wanted to go up and ask.

Isn't this Tian Shu Pavilion the same as the Tian Shu Pavilion of the Great Yan Dynasty?

The Imperial Advisor, isn't he also the Imperial Advisor of the Great Yan?!

With a flick of his wrist, Zhao Jingqian pushed aside the maid's arm and stepped over the threshold.

He snorted coldly and was about to climb the steps.

A strong gust of wind suddenly rushed towards me!

Zhao Jingqian, who had no cultivation whatsoever, was powerless to resist and was immediately 'pushed' out!

He stumbled back several steps, but fortunately, the other party's strength was just right, and he was not actually forced to fall to the ground.

Behind them, the guards and Cao Gao and the others all gasped in shock.

Zhao Jingqian stared at the slowly closing door and the man whose figure was almost gone.

His eyes were filled with an overwhelming sense of gloom.

"Cao Gao."

"The old slave is here!"

"After the morning court session, the sect leader was summoned to the palace for an audience."
-
"Brother Xu!"

As soon as I stepped onto the roof, a small figure ran over happily.

"It's a small fish."

Xu Jinhuan smiled and rubbed the other person's head, his heart filled with utter shock.

In just a short time, this little girl, who was just an ordinary child before, now seems to have a galaxy hanging upside down in her eyes.

Just a fleeting glance almost made him dizzy.

His cultivation level was so high that even he could not see through it.

I vaguely remember that the little girl's wish at the time seemed to be 'to become as amazing as Sister Niaoniao'.
Looking at the familiar figure behind him, Xu Jinhuan smiled and said:
"Niao Niao, it's been a long time."

"You're finally here! I have something I wanted to ask you!"

Suddenly, the jade fragments displayed an unprecedented liveliness, as if it couldn't wait to fly out of its sea of ​​consciousness.

Xu Jinhuan felt a chill run down his spine instinctively.
Woman, don't come any closer!

No matter what, I will not return the sword to you!

To avoid the other party mentioning this matter, he quickly said:
"Is there anything I can help you with? Please feel free to ask!"

Niao Niao tilted her head, her empty eyes seemingly filled with a hint of confusion.

"Yes, someone asked me to do two things."
Everything was fine until now, and now the first thing has gone wrong. I... don't know what to do.

Xu Jinhuan smiled outwardly, but inwardly he was cursing.

What one thing or two things.
Is there anyone who asks questions like that?

"Well, you can't just tell someone what they asked you to do, right?"

After a tentative question, Gu Niaoniao lowered her head, her expression somber.
"Yes, yes, as expected, even Xu Jinhuan couldn't find out the contents."

"Wait!"

Seeing the other party's attitude, Xu Jinhuan's competitive spirit was aroused.

I must never let others down.
After all, when in doubt, one can consult Xu Jinhuan.
Thinking of that poor soul who was being kept out of the door, Xu Jinhuan felt that he might have vaguely grasped something.

"So, asking about that troublesome matter is related to 'that person,' right?"

Xu Jinhuan nodded towards the outside of the building and probed again.

Gu Niaoniao nodded emphatically, her eyes filled with anticipation.

"Hmm, is it because this man became emperor that you feel troubled?"

"Um!!!"

Gu Niaoniao blinked her big eyes, feeling that she had asked the right person again.

"I understand."

Xu Jinhuan tentatively asked, "If Ruoxi were to become the emperor, would she still find it difficult?"

"No way!" Xu Jinhuan clapped his hands. "That's easy! We'll work together to help Ruoxi ascend the throne, won't that solve the problem?"

Gu Niaoniao's smile suddenly froze, replaced by a troubled expression:

"As expected of Xu Jinhuan. But this violates something else."

Is that not allowed?
"It's alright, Niao Niao, let me think about it."

Given that they had already had a 'friendly' exchange, Xu Jinhuan tried to put himself in the other party's shoes to think about the problem and seek a solution.

Standing atop the octagonal building, he paced back and forth.

This woman has a bug.

I know this myself, so as long as I find the bug and 'guide' the other party in a different way, I can achieve the same goal.
A thought suddenly struck him, and he tentatively asked:
"I see.

Whatever those two matters may be, you cannot directly interfere in the internal strife among the Yan and Zhao people.

Gu Niaoniao's dim eyes lit up again.

"Then let's try a different approach and not help Ruoxi."

help me."

Gu Niaoniao looked puzzled.

Staying by the side of this supreme sage, Xu Jinhuan was not worried at all that his words would be overheard by others.

He felt he had once again found the opponent's weakness and confidently said:

"My purpose in coming to the capital is to help Ruoxi take revenge and ascend the throne!"

You don't have to help Ruoxi with the struggle for the throne. Just help me with some small favors instead.

After all, we're good friends.

Friends should help each other!

"Really?!"

Gu Niaoniao was dumbfounded.

I don't know why, but I just feel that what the other person said makes a lot of sense!
"Of course, why would I lie to my friends?"

Xu Jinhuan's smile was harmless.

"Ugh"

A faint sigh escaped from a place the two could not hear.

In the void where no one could see, a golden phantom looked up at the sky, its face full of desolation and loneliness.

Suddenly, despite having no physical form, the golden phantom shuddered violently!
He turned his head and looked at the man at the top of the octagonal pavilion.

Behind the other party, there seemed to be a sky-covering azure phoenix shadow, opening its blood-red maw towards him!
Suddenly, dark clouds obscured the sky over Kyoto.

Inside the Hall of Supreme Harmony, the civil and military officials who were waiting for the emperor turned around in astonishment.

A cold wind howled, and lightning flashed and thunder roared.

In an instant, large raindrops began to patter down on the ground.

Zhang Longxing opened his mouth wide and pointed outside the hall:
"Blood rain!"

Beneath the octagonal pavilion, the attendants were in a panic, desperately shielding His Majesty.

The group hurried toward the dragon carriage.

Just then, ripples suddenly appeared in the void.

A circular hole appeared in the space beside Zhao Jingqian, and a completely black crow emerged from it.

The guard with the sword reacted quickly, leaping into the air and grabbing the raven in his palm.

Ignoring the torrential blood, he swiftly removed a bamboo slip from the man's calf.

As soon as it was unfolded, his expression changed drastically, and he knelt heavily on the ground:
"Your Majesty! The western and southern regions are in dire need of attention!"
In the west, the states of Qi and Zhou secretly conspired, spreading rumors that a demon clan was hiding in Bianzhou, and launched a joint attack!

Bianzhou fell in less than half a day!

In the south, the barbarians are mobilizing a large number of troops, poised to attack!
Rumors are spreading throughout the southern regions, claiming that strange phenomena are occurring frequently in various parts of Great Yan, a calamity sent by heaven, and that the nation's fate is sealed!

Zhao Jingqian, who had just boarded the imperial carriage, trembled, covered his face with his sleeve, and coughed heavily.

A moment later, the cuff was stained with a glaring bright red.

　Chapter Two will be released a little later, as soon as possible.
