"We now know that behind the Imperial Preceptor Frost Leaf of the Autumn Palace stands the Heavenly God. Then the power of the Heavenly Palace will be further strengthened in the Beijia Court, and the will of the Heavenly God will surely be implemented more firmly in the future."
He Lingchuan concluded: "You asked whether Beijia and Mouguo will go to war directly. I don't think so. After all, they are so huge that they are afraid of each other. However, the possibility of intensified conflict between Beijia and Mouguo in more dimensions is not small. The fundamental need of the gods is nightmare energy, and the Demon Emperor only needs to satisfy this."
“Isn’t this good for us?”
"For a while, yes."
Mirror thought about it, but couldn't help asking, "Who sank Bega's fleet?"
No matter how you think about it, it was Mou Guo, because it wasn't Cang Yan who did it.
Who else in the world dares to destroy the Bega fleet and has the ability to do so?
"It doesn't matter. It's not important anymore."
……
A few days later, He Lingchuan received another secret report from Narakutian:
"I received news that Jialuotian captured a True Immortal not long ago, called Hidden God Lord."
"Ah?" The soul-stealing mirror in his arms screamed.
When He Lingchuan heard the word "True Immortal", his scalp went numb. But when he heard the name of this True Immortal, he was confused: "Hidden God Lord? Who is this?"
He had never heard of it. He flipped through his memories of the Lingshan Immortals, but found nothing.
Is there such a person among the True Immortals?
"I don't know either." Narakutian seemed to have a smile on his blurred face. He had long been fed up with He Lingchuan's wise appearance.
"Are you sure this is a true immortal?"
"You're questioning my source of information?" Narakutian stopped smiling. "The world is vast. Just because you haven't heard of it doesn't mean it doesn't exist."
"You've lived longer than me, and you've participated in the Ancient War, but you haven't heard of it either?" He Lingchuan frowned, "Could it be that this Hidden God Lord has never shown up in the Ancient War?"
"If you want to know, you have to check it yourself. I will only tell you this precious information." How many true immortals and immortals died in the world, why would Narakutian care? "This Hidden God is not easy to deal with. I heard that Jialuotian lost a lot of his men, including seven from the gods, and Jialuotian's own skin was also damaged."
It sounds like a rare great power indeed, He Lingchuan pondered. Miao Zhantian went to the Upside-Down Sea to plot against the True Man Qian Huan, and also brought in a dozen of his followers. There were more than a dozen immortals in the Huan Sect, plus Qian Huan himself took action, plus He Lingchuan fanned the flames and stirred up trouble, so that all the invading demons were left behind. How powerful was the Hidden God, and how many forces did he have under his command, to be able to kill seven of Jia Loutian's men?
The fall of the Hidden God Lord was as silent as his name, unlike the falls of Qianhuan Zhenren and Miaozhantian, which shocked both worlds and attracted a lot of discussion among immortals, demons and practitioners.
Even if Hidden God really exists, he is not as well-known as the above two.
How did Jialuotian choose him?
But no matter what, the devil is likely to have another useful skin in his hands, which is not good news for the human world.
"Wait, you know where the capture took place, right?"
"It seems to be in the distant sea south of Mou State."
"South of the State of Mou?" He Lingchuan frowned. "This location... Some time ago, it seems that a fleet of Beijia was attacked in the waters south of the State of Mou and was completely wiped out. Beijia believed that it was the work of the State of Mou, but the State of Mou denied it."
What exactly happened in the distant sea south of Mou State?
The ocean is too vast, and it is extremely difficult for land creatures like them to understand what is happening below the sea surface.
"I heard about it, too." Narakutian chuckled, "That's why I'm giving you this information."
Then, the face formed by the smoke disappeared.
He Lingchuan pondered for a while, opened the window, and a cool breeze blew in his face, with a bleak and solemn feeling.
It's autumn again.
\\\\\
The Panlong Desert has a clear and crisp autumn weather.
Flocks of wild geese flying south passed through the vast plains.
He Lingchuan returned north to Shiquan City. The official road was flat and straight, and the horses made crisp and cheerful kicking sounds on the gravel road.
In the distance and near, there are mountains and valleys filled with golden maple and red mangroves, and on both sides, there are merchants and tourists coming and going.
Three years ago, Zhong Shengguang designated this medium-sized city as an auxiliary city of Panlong City and vigorously developed and constructed it.
After several rounds of expansion and merger, the current Panlong territory is larger than the Xiluo Kingdom, and Panlong City is located at the pass of the Chiba Plateau. In the past, when Panlong City was fully defending, this location was excellent; but now, it is in the northern part of the entire territory, which is a bit remote.
Shiquan City is located in the southern part of Panlong Desert, connected to Maohe Plain in the east and the second sea route in the south. It is a real hub. From here, it is close to everywhere. Therefore, Zhong Shengguang set it as the second administrative center despite the opposition of many old ministers.
Which should be the focus, war or development? This depends on the timing.
Most of Panlong City's administrative team moved here, and Shiquan City's economy started to boom like a raging fire.
This new city, half leaning on the plain, is not limited in area like Panlong City. It can be planned and expanded at will. It also has the geographical advantage of convenient transportation from the south to the north. Therefore, it has shown a trend of catching up in just three years.
After entering the city, He Lingchuan walked on the newly built Hongyun Street. The street could accommodate ten carriages side by side. The ground was paved with bluestone slabs and was clean and elegant. The dusty scene in the wasteland in the past was rarely seen nowadays.
Countless people greeted him along the way, and General Hu Yi responded with a smile.
There is a large lake in the center of Shiquan City with beautiful scenery. There is a dam in the middle of the lake and drooping willows on both sides.
Ten years ago, there were only willow trees growing on the Panlong Desert, and you could count them on one hand. But the current scene of sparkling water, green trees and red flowers is something that people in the past could not even dream of.
He Lingchuan rode across the embankment and heard several people talking as they walked:
"I really didn't expect that."
"Yes, yes. Who could have imagined ten years ago that Panlong City is still here, but Xiluo Country is gone first!"
He Lingchuan was startled when he heard this. Xi Luo is gone?
He just returned to the city today, how come he heard such explosive news?
Another person asked, "Hey, do you think we should send troops to Xi Luo?"
The one who spoke earlier said excitedly: "It must be released! That is our beloved homeland of Xiluo, not some other place!"
"Alas, won't that mean we're going to have to go to war again? We've finally had a few years of peace."
They walked away.
Along the way, He Lingchuan heard similar discussions twice more.
It sounds like this matter is very hot in the city.
If this is the case in Shiquan City, Panlong City cannot even imagine it.
He had just stepped into the office when the door panel greeted him: "Boss, you're back? Just in time for the meeting in the Hall of War."
Due to years of fighting and numerous military achievements, Menban has been promoted to general, but his rank is not as high as that of General Huyi. People still treat him with great respect and use the old title.
The military meeting hall here is also called the War Hall.
"Yeah." He Lingchuan had only been away from Panlong Wasteland for more than 20 days, and something big seemed to have happened in the meantime. "What happened? I heard people on the road talking about it. Is Xiluo Country gone?"
"Yes, we'll discuss this in the meeting later."
