Aunt, please don't chase me. I don't want to be the emperor.

"Who is Zhao Si? Sounds familiar."

"Zhao Si, who is this?"

Ji Xian and Lulu raised their hands at the same time and asked a question.

Su Luohua held her forehead with her hand: "Don't you even know this guy Zhao Si?"

"Does he owe us money?"

"..."

Su Luohua resisted the urge to slap Ji Xian.

But Su Luoxue had anticipated this. After sighing, she explained to Ji Xian in a gentle voice, "Zhao Si and Lu Zhanfei are both traitors to the Great Xuan Sect. And unlike Cheng Longjiu's Dieying, they can be considered orthodox members of the Great Xuan Sect."

"What do you mean?"

"He is the Prince of Daxuan, and his title is Prince of Liang."

"Oh, oh, oh." Ji Xian nodded, understanding: "Hey, then what's the situation with this guy appearing in the Liaodan tribe? Could it be that the Liaodan tribe wants to cause trouble again?"

Although Ji Xian didn't know everything about the Daxuan rebellion, she knew everything about the Liaodan tribe. This was mainly because Yelu Yinxue was originally a Liaodan goddess, so Ji Xian knew more about Liaodan affairs.

Ji Xian thought a lot, even thinking that if Cheng Ying escaped to Beimo, could Zhao Si be here to pick her up?

Su Luohua, however, seemed to react quickly and clapped her fists immediately: "Anyway, this is good news. I was just worried that I had no reason to send troops to Liaodan."

Su Luohua had been unhappy with the Liaodan tribe for a long time, but she had been holding back because she had no reason to send troops to attack them. However, if the Liaodan tribe was colluding with the remnants of the Daxuan faction, that would be a different matter. She could definitely use that as an excuse to wipe them out.

Thirty years ago, the Liaodan tribe colluded with the rebel Empress Zhao Tianyue, slaughtering countless loyal officials of the Great Zhou. The current chaos in Jizhou was their own fault. Not only Su Luohua, but even within the Great Zhou, many were eager to send troops to annihilate them.

Both sisters were extremely intelligent, but Su Luoxue was clearly more cautious and conservative than her elder sister. "Could it be that Zhao Si or Dieying did this on purpose, trying to provoke a conflict between us and the Liaodan tribe?"

"It's not ruled out." Hua Lan, after all, was the most experienced person present and had already made arrangements: "I will send a message to the commander-in-chief and the military advisor, reporting these matters to them in detail. Then, Your Majesty and the others will immediately follow me to Katoer City. In addition to the matter of the Ghost Doctor Scripture, we can also investigate the affairs of the Liaodan royal family and the remnants of the Daxuan faction."

4.5 His Majesty the Emperor has found the escape route of the paralyzed woman

Hua Lan said he wanted to send a message, but in fact, it was not just sent to Silver Dragon Marshal and Pang Yuanchu, but also to all the Great Zhou Yang Gods who were close to the Northern Desert area, including...

On a rugged mountain road, a beautiful woman in a blue dress and ponytail walked along, leading a horse. At first glance, her attire and demeanor resembled a young knight-errant, but no one would have guessed that she was none other than the current Empress Dowager of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Tang Lin.

Tang Lin was walking along the mountain road with her horse when a phoenix bird flew in from the sky. She raised her hand and the bird landed on her fingertips. She took out a letter from the mailbox and opened it to find it was from Hua Lan.

Like Hua Lan, Tang Lin is also a famous ice beauty in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

But looking at the expression in the letter, even Tang Lin couldn't help but show a look of surprise.

Ghost Doctor's Classic, Su Qingqiu's Tomb, Ten Thousand Demons City......

The remnants of the Daxuan faction appeared in Kator City, and it seems that they are colluding with the Liaodan royal family?

Dieying covets the Ghost Doctor's Scripture and is now heading towards Su Qingqiu's tomb?

Hua Lan rushed out urgently, Luohua and Luoxue were by her side, even Xian'er was there?

The letter is not big, but it contains a lot of information.

Tang Lin also made a quick analysis, and the letter in his hand turned into ashes under the pressure of spiritual power. After a moment, Tang Lin breathed a sigh of relief, and the expression on his face gradually turned into relief.

At least, Xian'er's whereabouts are known.

Tang Lin is a mother after all, and what she worries about most is of course her children.

Northern Desert?

Tang Lin looked towards the north and sighed in his heart: "I never thought that I would have the opportunity to go there again."

Tang Lin still remembered that the last time he went to Beimo was eighteen years ago, which was the moment when the War of Renaissance began.

.......

Let's talk about Ji Xian and others at this time...

After discussing countermeasures, Ji Xian and the others immediately set off, continuing northward to the Liaodan capital of Katol City. Because this was a classified operation that required secrecy, Hua Lan and Su Luohua hadn't brought any other personnel with them. Only a few of their own Yang Gods would suffice. Once they reached Katol City, they would rendezvous with the Silver Dragon Guards there.

But when they were crossing the desert, Ji Xian asked everyone to stop.

"stop!"

Ji Xian was riding in the front, but suddenly raised her hand to ask everyone to stop.

Everyone looked at Ji Xian, but Ji Xian said nothing and just sat on his horse with his back to everyone. But no one urged him. Except for Hua Lan, most of the people present were his relatives and knew what kind of abilities Ji Xian had.

He inherited his perception from his mother, so he must have sensed something.

Ji Xian closed her eyes and was quiet for a while before pointing in a direction: "There is a fluctuation of spiritual power over there, it seems like a battle is going on."

Everyone looked over, and then Su Luohua asked, "So what? Is the battle fluctuation very strong, or is there something special?"

"No, it's normal. There's only one problem."

"What is it?"

"I could only sense the spiritual energy fluctuations from the battle, but I didn't hear any other sounds: footsteps, fighting, shouting, nothing but the spiritual energy fluctuations."

Hearing Ji Xian say this, Su Luoxue was the first to react: "You mean..."

"Where is Cheng Ying? We've caught up with her. Let's go!"

Without hesitation, Ji Xian led his men in that direction.

The direction Ji Xian pointed to was actually a small town called Qingfeng Town. Although it was an alien town, it was directly under the jurisdiction of the Great Zhou. This was mainly because the town was less than a kilometer away from the territory of the Liaodan tribe. The purpose of Qingfeng Town was to monitor the Liaodan tribe.

Therefore, most of the people in this town are from the Central Plains, and the local government guards are all elite soldiers of the Great Zhou.

And today, at this moment, the town was being bloodbathed.

The streets of the town were littered with corpses, and countless bodies of officers, soldiers and guards fell to the ground. The residents in the surrounding houses were so frightened that they trembled and dared not breathe.

Only a few people dared to look out through the cracks in the door and windows, and then they saw a woman in a black windbreaker holding a strange weapon, walking among the mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

There were two soldiers in front of Cheng Ying, but they were trembling with fear and could hardly hold their swords.

One of the soldiers said tremblingly: "You, who are you..."

However, before he could finish his words, Cheng Ying suddenly appeared in front of him and beheaded him with a single blow. Another soldier nearby was so frightened that he dropped his weapon and even tried to run, but Cheng Ying instantly stabbed him in the chest with a sword from behind.

The blade of the Hiei Sword Bow was pulled out, and the soldier's body fell to the ground.

Cheng Ying waved his weapon, wiping off the blood from his sword. He then looked around expressionlessly, thinking, "How many times has this happened?"

After escaping from Tianji Pavilion, she had been mobilizing her spiritual power to travel at full speed. However, on the way from Qingzhou to Beimo, she encountered too many Da Zhou checkpoints and patrols, and took a lot of detours, which delayed her a lot of time.

After finally entering the Northern Desert, they never expected that the Great Zhou forces in the Northern Desert were more numerous than those in the Central Plains.

For example, this time, she just came to this town to rest and recuperate, but she never thought of breaking into the Great Zhou stronghold. She had no choice but to fight and kill all the soldiers defending the town.

What happened? Why are there so many Great Zhou forces in the Northern Desert? Even if they want to capture me, they can't come so quickly.

Cheng Ying naturally didn't know about the Liaodan royal family and the remnants of the Daxuan faction, so he didn't worry about it.

At this moment, a phoenix bird flew in the sky and landed on Cheng Ying's shoulder.

Cheng Ying opened the letter, thinking it was a reply from the leader, but unexpectedly it was a letter from Baili Qiankun.

Baili Qiankun's letter was very simple, just one sentence: "Come to Katoer City."

After reading the letter, Cheng Ying destroyed it and left immediately.

Although she was traveling at full speed, it was unlikely that the Great Zhou would take over the defense of Su Qingqiu's tomb in Liaodan in such a short time. But nothing is absolute. What if they really arrived at Su Qingqiu's tomb before her? You must know that this world belongs to the Great Zhou, and they have no influence there.

Cheng Ying didn't plan to act rashly before receiving a reply from Cheng Longjiu. Baili Qiankun was the employer of this commission, so since the employer had given the order, he would just execute it.

Cheng Ying is an extremely good killer who can carry out any mission ruthlessly.

When Ji Xian and the others arrived, Cheng Ying had naturally run away again.

After seeing the corpses strewn all over the streets of the town, everyone was naturally shocked.

"This bastard!"

Su Luohua was so angry that she cursed Cheng Ying, but Su Luoxue was much calmer. Her first reaction was to look at Ji Xian and ask, "Ji Xian, can you still sense Cheng Ying's movements?"

"No." Ji Xian shook her head: "This expressionless girl's stealth skills are too powerful. She runs without making any sound or spiritual energy fluctuations. There is no way to tell which direction she is running."

"Hey wait."

Ji Xian had just finished saying that she couldn't judge when she was suddenly startled and looked up at the sky.

Cheng Ying was naturally not arrogant enough to fly away, but when Ji Xian looked up at the sky, she found a phoenix bird flying away from the sky.

You should know that most people in the world use spirit pigeons to send messages. Even some government troops of the Great Zhou use spirit pigeons. Not many people can afford the phoenix bird.

Even if the officers and soldiers in this town had a Phoenix Bird, Ji Xian did not think that this Phoenix Bird was the one they sent out to call for help, because the Phoenix Bird was flying in the northwest direction.

In the northwest, the territory of the Liaodan tribe, the Fengming bird in Qingfeng Town did not fly south to seek help from other forces in the Great Zhou, but instead flew towards the territory of the Liaodan tribe. This is impossible no matter how you think about it.

So, it is obvious who the phoenix bird belongs to.

"I think I know where that expressionless girl ran to. Chase her."

Ji Xian said, and led everyone to continue chasing!

4.6 His Majesty the Emperor has broken into the enemy base camp

Following the direction in which the phoenix bird flew away, Ji Xian and others went straight. Although they did not find any trace of Cheng Ying along the way and did not catch up with Cheng Ying, Ji Xian's intuition told him that it was right to move forward.

Since no one else had a better plan, they went with Ji Xian.

But in the end, a few days later, they went deep into the territory of Liaodan tribe and came to a place...

Outside a towering and huge city gate, there is a bustling bustle of people coming and going. It is obvious that this is a very important city.

The stone bricks of the city wall were engraved with foreign characters that most people might not be able to understand. However, Ji Xian was raised by Yelu Yinxue, and he happened to understand quite a bit of Liaodan's foreign characters, so he also happened to understand what was engraved on the city wall.

The name of the city is engraved on the wall, which is called Kator City.

Kator City, isn’t that the capital city of the Liaodan tribe?

"......"

Ji Xian was speechless for several seconds, then said, "Why is that expressionless woman here? Could she be colluding with the remnants of the Daxuan faction?"

"We can't rule out this possibility. After all, the Great Zhou is their common enemy." Su Luoxue walked over to Ji Xian and said, "But if that's the case, then our current combat power might not be enough."

Su Luoxue is very smart and has already analyzed the current situation.

According to confirmed intelligence, there are two Liaodan Yang Gods in Katoer: the current Liaodan King, Yelü Yan, and the Liaodan Goddess, Yelü Pinglin. Furthermore, there are Zhao Si, Lu Zhanfei, and He Ren, three remnants of the Daxuan remnants, who are considered Yang Gods of the state, for a total of five.

If Cheng Ying is included, there are six of them.

On the other hand, although they only had four Yang Gods, each of them was a top-tier expert, not to mention Hua Lan, a peerless powerhouse who was no less powerful than the Silver Dragon Commander. If a fight really came to blows, they wouldn't necessarily lose to the other six. The problem was, this was the Liaodan Tribe's capital, their home turf. How could they possibly defeat them here with just a few of them?

Perhaps Cheng Ying’s coming to Kator City had nothing to do with the remnants of Daxuan, but if something really happened, could they still expect Cheng Ying to help them fight the remnants of Daxuan?

Su Luoxue wasn't that naive, and now she had other ideas. She said to the others, "Let's go into the city first and find the Silver Dragon Guard's base. After we understand the situation, we can discuss the next countermeasures."

Think twice before acting, and don't act rashly unless necessary. This is what Kong Mingliang taught Su Luoxue.

"Let's go then."

Su Luohua said this, inviting everyone to go into the city together.

The Silver Dragon Guard has many strongholds in the city of Katol, the most important of which is an inn called the God of Wealth Inn, formerly the property of the God of Wealth Association in the Northern Desert.

That’s right, the Tianhuwei before the renovation was an inn when Kong Mingliang was still the Grand Elder of the God of Wealth Society.

Later, Kong Mingliang pledged allegiance to the Great Zhou, and the God of Wealth Society was transformed into the Sky Fox Guard. A large number of its strongholds became enterprises under the Great Zhou, helping the Great Zhou, which had just completed its revival, to prosper rapidly.

Many places have been converted into strongholds of the Sky Fox Guards, but this is not the case for the God of Wealth enterprises in the four foreign lands. Most of them have been taken over by the Silver Dragon Guards, the Blue Tiger Guards, and the White Horse Guards, becoming strongholds under the command of these three secret guards.

This is mainly due to the different division of responsibilities. The main responsibility of the Tianhu Guard is to maintain the stability and development of the martial arts world, while exploring the secrets of ancient civilizations and carrying out confidential operations in foreign lands, which is not within their jurisdiction.

There are seven secret guards, each with a different position.

Among them, the Silver Dragon Guard is responsible for espionage and intelligence work, so there will be a large number of undercover spies sneaking into the world, inquiring and observing the situation everywhere.

The Canghu Guards are responsible for the foreign lands. They are responsible for all places outside the Central Plains, such as the four foreign lands and more distant foreign civilizations.

As for the White Horse Guards, they are an elite organization that specializes in supporting major operations. They often work in conjunction with other secret guards. They have personnel everywhere and are ready to act at any time.

Given the situation in Katol City, it was naturally inconvenient for the Sky Fox Guard to intervene, so Kong Mingliang generously handed over all the strongholds in Katol City related to the God of Wealth. Katol City was the capital of the Liaodan Tribe and was considered to be of paramount importance, so it was naturally handed directly to the Silver Dragon Guard.

The Liaodan royal family naturally knew that the God of Wealth Inn was the stronghold of the Great Zhou, but they really did not dare to touch this stronghold.
