Bai Yuan nodded slightly, then put away some files of Luowang, and left with Ningyan and others, leaving only Yunxi and others to help Li Wu integrate Luowang.

After leaving Senluo Prison, Jimo Huaxue felt a little confused and asked directly.

"Husband, why don't you just destroy the net? Instead, let Li Wu integrate the net?"

Luowang is a notorious killer organization. Bai Yuan hated it before. Now he can finally destroy Luowang, but Bai Yuan chooses to recast it. Jimo Huaxue is naturally puzzled.

When Bai Yuan heard Jimo Huaxue's question, he couldn't help but smile, and then told them the true meaning of Luowang.

"When one snare is eliminated, another snare will appear."

Jimo Huaxue and others seemed to understand what he said, but they didn't dwell on it anymore.

At this time, Xuan Jian asked curiously: "I saw you took some files from Senluo Prison before?"

"Yes, once the origins of Luowang are exposed, it will be enough to cause Luowang to suffer another heavy blow. I plan to destroy it so that I can completely reforge this murder weapon."

"From now on there will be no more nets. Instead there will be a dark river hidden in the seven kingdoms."

"underground river?"

Hearing Bai Yuan's words, Xuan Jian and others were slightly stunned. They didn't expect that Bai Yuan had even come up with a new name so quickly.

Bai Yuan nodded slightly: "Yes, Dark River, it will be a brand new organization, completely hidden in the dark."

Bai Yuan already had a preliminary plan in mind for the dark river.

Unlike Luowang, which colluded with nobles secretly and carried out assassinations every day, making it known to everyone and notorious, Anhe no longer needed to collude with nobles and pursue power. He usually hid and only carried out tasks when Bai Yuan needed him.

......

The Lao Ai incident did not affect the coronation of Ying Zheng, but Lu Buwei and Zhao Ji, who were supposed to attend the ceremony, did not come in the end.

Lu Buwei took the initiative to hand over Xiangyin and asked to resign on the second day of the Lao'ai rebellion.

Under normal circumstances, it was Lu Buwei who recommended Lao Ai to Zhao Ji, which led to a series of events that followed. Lu Buwei was implicated and his life was in danger.

However, Ying Zheng remembered that Lü Buwei had made great contributions to the Qin State before, and many people pleaded for him, so in the end he let his merits and demerits offset each other, banished him from Xianyang, and spared his life.

As for Zhao Ji, although she did not participate in Lao Ai's rebellion, after this incident, a deep rift had arisen between her and Ying Zheng.

She didn't dare to see Ying Zheng, and Ying Zheng didn't want to see her.

On the day when Ying Zheng was crowned, Lord Changping led the imperial guards to impose martial law in Yongdi, and the Qinian Palace was even more heavily guarded.

Witnessed by all the civil and military officials of the Qin Dynasty, the elders of the Ying clan personally crowned Ying Zheng.

Ying Zheng wore a sword and performed the kingly ceremony, full of vigor and vitality. From then on, he completely took power.

Bai Yuan, Yan Fei and others watched the entire ceremony of capping from beginning to end.

It was the first time Bai Yuan saw a king being crowned, so it felt very fresh.

When the banquet ended in the evening, it was already late at night when Bai Yuan returned home.

Then he and Ningyan tossed and turned until dawn before they went to sleep. When they woke up, it was almost noon.

"Husband, there is news from Taiyi Mountain, asking us to return quickly."

Outside the house, Jimo Huaxue knocked on the door.

Bai Yuan hurriedly got up and dressed, washed briefly, and then saw two elders sent to Xianyang from the Tianren Sect coming over.

"Junior Brother Bai Yuan, hurry up, let's go back to Taiyi Mountain!"

"What happened?"

"We just got the news that Pang Nuan led an army of 320,000 soldiers, bypassed Puban, crossed the river to the south, and headed straight for Xianyang! He also sent a group of troops to attack Taiyi Mountain."

Upon hearing the news, Bai Yuan was stunned for a moment, then he couldn't help but narrow his eyes, exuding a fierce murderous intent.

He could ignore Pang Nuan and attack Xianyang. After all, after being reminded, Ying Zheng had already prepared for this, and Pang Nuan would probably not be able to attack Xianyang.

But he couldn't ignore Taiyi Mountain.

It can be said that Taiyi Mountain is his home in this world, and he will never allow anyone to threaten Taiyi Mountain.

So without saying anything, Bai Yuan confiscated all the things, took Ning Yan and others, rode on horseback and rushed towards Taiyi Mountain.

Ying Zheng, Yan Fei and others soon knew what happened in Taiyi Mountain.

But Ying Zheng was unable to spare any strength to support Taoism. You have to know that Wang Jian had to face an army of 320,000, while he only had 100,000 troops.

However, Yan Fei and Yue Shen immediately took people to Taiyi Mountain for support.

At this moment, in Taiyi Mountain, Chisongzi and Xiaoyaozi gathered all the disciples of the Tianren and Renzong sects.

"I'm sure everyone has heard that Zhao General Pang Nuan led a large army to bypass Hangu Pass and head towards Xianyang. He also sent a group of soldiers to Taiyi Mountain."

"The other party has bad intentions. We Taoists never take the initiative to provoke others, but this does not mean that we are afraid of them!"

"Here, we have to be ready for battle, just in case."

Among the disciples, there was a group wearing special inner armor, holding Bai's crossbows, and with quivers hung all over their bodies. They had scorching eyes and an extremely terrifying aura.

Their emotions were aroused by Chisongzi. They were very angry and a little excited at the same time.

Finally, I can fully utilize the Bai's Crossbow.

The other disciples looked at the group of disciples holding the Bai family crossbows, and they could not hide the envy on their faces.

Especially the disciples of the Human Sect, when they saw the appearance of mechanical weapons in the Tian Sect, they always felt that they seemed to be lagging behind the times, and the eyes they looked at their leader Xiaoyaozi changed a little.

It seems to be asking: Why has the era of Tianzong changed?

Xiaoyaozi felt very embarrassed and coughed twice, signaling Chisongzi to respond.

Chisongzi's eyes twitched slightly, and then he clapped his hands twice.

Then a group of disciples brought up a pile of boxes.

"Distribute the pills inside first!"

At this moment, Chi Songzi looked extremely heroic. With a wave of his hand, thousands of extremely precious pills were distributed to many disciples. Even the disciples of the Human Sect were taken care of.

Of course, at this moment, there is no need for them to make such a clear distinction.

Chapter 289 Gongsun Yu: What are you fighting for? I'm going to take a vacation here

The disciples of the Human Sect were given a lot of pills, and the slight resentment in their hearts was almost dissipated.

Next, Chisongzi and Xiaoyaozi began to arrange their disciples to patrol and guard the mountain, preparing to deal with the coalition forces.

By the time they finished all these things, most of the afternoon had passed.

Chisongzi and Xiaoyaozi both felt a little tired.

Since they discovered the movements of Pang Nuan's army last night, the two of them have been busy and have not slept the entire night.

An eagle circled down from the sky and whispered something into Chisongzi's ear.

"Humph, a full 20,000 people, are they trying to destroy my Taoist Taiyi Palace?"

Chisongzi snorted coldly, with a hint of anger in his eyes.

Xiaoyaozi was also very angry after hearing this.

Mount Taiyi was a place for Taoists to practice meditation. Since Laozi established his sect in Mount Taiyi, no one had dared to send soldiers to bring disaster to Mount Taiyi.

What Pang Nuan is doing now is undoubtedly a provocation to the entire Taoism.

After this incident, the Taoists will definitely go to Zhao State and seek justice from the King of Zhao.

As night fell, Bai Yuan and others successfully arrived at Taiyi Palace and met Chisongzi and Xiaoyaozi who were still busy.

Seeing Bai Yuan and others coming back, Chisongzi waved to them.

"According to our investigation, Pang Nuan has sent 20,000 people to cause trouble for us. They are less than 20 miles away from Taiyi Mountain. They will probably reach Taiyi Palace tomorrow."

Bai Yuan nodded slightly after hearing this.

"Does anyone know who will lead the troops this time?"

"It's not clear yet, but Pang Nuan won't send anyone here casually."

Although Chisongzi hated Pang Yuan very much, he would not underestimate her.

Pang Nuan was able to think of taking a detour through Puyang and going round to Hangu Pass, which shows that the opponent's strategic vision was not bad.

On the other side, twenty miles away from Taiyi Mountain, the 20,000 troops sent by Pang Nuan to cause trouble for the Taoists were stationed here.

These 20,000 troops are all from the Wei State. They have come from afar and are already exhausted.

Looking at the listless soldiers, Wei State's chief general Gongsun Yu couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

In this coalition attack on Qin, Wei was one of the countries that was forced to surrender. More than ten years ago, the previous king of Wei, Wei Huaijun, was imprisoned and killed by the King of Wei. Later, King Anxi of Wei appointed his son-in-law Wei Yuanjun as the new king of Wei, and thus Wei became a vassal state of Wei.

This time, Wei State participated in the coalition, so Wei State, as its younger brother, naturally needed to express its position.

Lord Yuan of Wei mobilized the entire country and sent out the only 20,000 soldiers of the Wei State, sparing no effort.

However, Gongsun Yu, the main general, was not optimistic about this alliance.

Gongsun Yu is the descendant of Gongsun Yan, and Gongsun Yan once studied under the strategist Guiguzi. Under the influence of Guiguzi, Gongsun Yu can be considered half a strategist. Not only is he proficient in military tactics, but he also knows Guiguzi's swordsmanship. His swordsmanship level is also first-class in the world.

It is precisely because of his family background that he can see the situation more clearly than ordinary people.

This time, the commander of the coalition forces, Pang Nuan, ordered the Chu, Wei and Yan states to gather a total of 300,000 troops and horses and station them outside Hangu Pass to attract Qin to send a large army for support.

He then led the remaining 320,000 people to bypass Puyang, intending to attack the heartland of Qin and destroy the country in one battle.

This strategy seems good, but it is actually very dangerous.

If everything goes smoothly, they can certainly destroy the country in one battle, but if they fail to capture Xianyang and are blocked instead, then when the Qin army from Hangu Pass comes to support, the 320,000 troops led by Pang Nuan will be trapped.

And this situation is very likely to happen.

In the coalition forces, the leaders of each country have different intentions and their minds are not united. Although they seem to be united, they are actually a mob.

On the contrary, the Qin side was united. After all, they had been beaten to their capital. The Qin soldiers must have shared a common hatred of the enemy and their morale was terrifying.

In comparison, Pang Nuan only has the advantage of a large number of troops, but all other aspects are worrying.

This is also the reason why when Pang Nuan decided to send people to deal with Taoism and the generals of other countries were indifferent, Gongsun Yu would stand up and recommend himself.

He wanted to take this opportunity to lead the Wei soldiers to break away from the coalition forces to avoid heavy casualties if they followed them.

As for dealing with Taoists?

Gongsun Yu was not so stubborn as to risk the world's condemnation and provoke a sect that was among the top of the Hundred Schools of Thought.

"General, the meal is ready!"

Just as Gongsun Yu was lost in thought, a deputy general brought him bowls and chopsticks with food.

Gongsun Yu did not go into the tent to eat, but ate on the spot with the soldiers.

"General, at our current marching speed, we will be able to reach Taiyi Mountain before noon tomorrow. What should we do then?"

"March? Why march? I think the beautiful scenery here is very nice. We have been traveling for so many days and the soldiers are exhausted. Let's rest here for a few days."

Gongsun Yu waved his hands while eating his food in big mouthfuls.

Hearing this, the deputy general's expression suddenly became very strange.

"General, if we do this, what if Pang Nuan blames us?"

"Hmph! War is a matter of great importance to a country. It is a matter of life and death, a matter of survival and destruction. We must be careful. We are not familiar with the environment of Taiyi Mountain. We have already lost the advantage of time and place. In addition, we have come from a long way and are exhausted. The Taoists must have known about our coming and are well prepared. If we clash with the Taoists at this time, what will be the consequences? How can this general joke about the lives of his soldiers!"

"This... is what the general taught me!"

Although he was taught a lesson, the deputy general's face was full of joy.

It was obvious that Gongsun Yu had already made a plan and found an excuse, so he could delay it for a few days at least.

The next day, Chisongzi and others were on high alert in Taiyi Palace, but after waiting for nearly a whole day, they didn't see a single person, and couldn't help feeling a little strange.

So they immediately sent out an eagle to investigate the situation.

Soon Chisongzi and others found out the whereabouts of the 20,000 people led by Gongsun Yu.

The other party was actually still at the same place as yesterday, twenty miles away from Taiyi Mountain, and had not moved at all.

Moreover, these people look so leisurely. They don't look like they are here to fight, but rather like they are here to travel.

This made Chisongzi and others very puzzled.
