Before leaving, Xia Chen set off a fire, completely turning Xuejiazhuang into a ball of ashes. Then he took out several powerful explosive talismans and blasted them for a long time until Xuejiazhuang was completely reduced to the ground. What really happened?
They didn't even stay, so they left.
Li Qitong is a little confused. The Xue family has been destroyed and everyone is dead. If we do this again, it will only destroy it more thoroughly. What is the point? Is there anyone who can find out and avenge the Xue family?
Xia Chen didn't explain. In fact, he couldn't give a reason. The reason why he did this was just a faint worry in the deepest part of his heart. He could only destroy the scene to the extent that he couldn't find any information about him.
Only then can I feel a little more at ease.
The two of them changed their clothes and set out on the road in a low-key manner.
Li Qitong's girlish nature, without the discipline of her father and sister, and with the company of her sweetheart, she was very happy along the way, sightseeing in the mountains and rivers, everything she saw was beautiful, she was very excited.
Xia Chen did not have this leisurely mood, but was very worried. He was about to return to the Zhengxuan Sect. Although the result was satisfactory, he had broken through the ten acquired levels and had reached the maximum critical value of danger. If Han Dongyu knew, then
But it's not good.
Although he had already practiced the method of concealing his cultivation level in the Heavenly Book and Qigong, and his current cultivation level was only at the peak of acquired ninth level, he was still a little uneasy, wondering whether Han Dongyu had the secret technique to see through his true cultivation level.
It's not like he never thought about not going back, and kept practicing outside until he broke through the magical realm before returning to the sect. But Han Dongyu's previous words that you will be responsible for the consequences if you don't come back for a month still made him give up all thoughts. Xia Chen had the guts
It feels like if he really doesn't go back, Han Dongyu will be able to find him no matter where he is hiding, and the consequences will be really serious.
He didn't dare to bet. Xia Chen was actually much more wary of this unfathomable master than Yue Zifeng and Xu Fang. Now he could only take one step and watch.
And through studying the sky, as his cultivation of elixirs deepened day by day, Xia Chen clearly understood what it meant to cultivate the Ancient Yuan Holy Body to the tenth level of acquired heaven, and also clearly knew what Han Dongyu wanted to do to him.
Xia Chen couldn't help but reveal a playful and complicated smile on his face. Now the whole world thinks that he is the Ancient Yuan Holy Physique, an unparalleled cultivation wizard, but only he knows that he is nothing. All his changes come from the source
In the cornucopia. This is really a huge irony.
"Master, I let you down. I hope you won't vomit blood when the time comes..." Xia Chen muttered to himself.
"What did you say? Xiao Chenzi?" Li Qitong didn't hear clearly and thought he was talking to her. She asked in passing while chewing a sweet sugar cane.
"I said...actually I am a genius." Xia Chen smiled.
"Narcissist!" Li Qitong turned her head and gave him a very pertinent comment.
Ten days later, the two returned to Zhengxuan Mountain. At the foot of the mountain, ordinary disciples had already announced in advance, so when they arrived at the mountain gate, Chen Qiushui, Sun Li, Chen Lie, Fang Qiu, Li Yatong and others were waiting to greet them.
Seeing that Xia Chen returned safely, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Although they had absolute confidence in Xia Chen, they were still very worried about him.
When sisters Li Yatong and Li Qitong met, they felt a mixture of joy and sorrow. The two little girls hugged each other and cried loudly. The scene was very touching. Xia Chen also wanted to hug and cry with the two girls. But in the eyes of Chen Qiushui
Under surveillance, he did not dare to move.
Returning to the courtyard, Xia Chen glanced at a few people and suddenly felt a little strange. Although everyone was very happy to see him back, talking and laughing. But what was different from usual was that there seemed to be something else in the joy, including
Chen Qiushui, including Chen Qiushui, was hesitant to speak. There was a smile in the corner of his eyes.
"What? What happened again?" He said calmly, "Don't tell me it's a bad thing, otherwise my little heart won't be able to bear it."
Sun Li, Chen Lie and Fang Qiu turned to Chen Qiu Shui. Chen Qiu Shui had the highest status, so naturally she should do the talking. Li Yatong and Li Qitong stood aside obediently, leaning on each other.
This was the first time the little girl saw Chen Qiushui. She couldn't help but open her eyes in shock, thinking that there is such a beautiful woman in the world. Oh my God, no wonder Xiao Chenzi is not attracted to me. If I were a man, I would probably be too.
You have to be confused in five ways and three ways.
Chen Qiushui glanced at Li Qitong calmly, then turned to Xia Chen and said with a smile: "There is good news and bad news, which one do you want to hear first?"
Xia Chen raised his eyebrows and asked curiously: "Senior sister, are you trying to sell things off? I've come back from a long way, and of course I don't want to hear about depression. Please tell me what good news you have first, and let me be happy before talking."
"Hehe." Chen Qiushui smiled slightly, "Originally we wanted to hear about your experience this month, but this matter is not suitable for torture in court, so I have to ask you privately, and the news I want to tell you is very important.
You must know immediately."
Xia Chen's heart skipped a beat, knowing what Chen Qiu Shui wanted to interrogate, what killing the Xue family members, killing Xue Yizhen, and offending a fourth-level magical monk were all shocking experiences, but these were not the point, the point was being with a beautiful little girl
What did you do when you were alone together?
I haven't done anything. My body is upright and I am not afraid of slanted shadows. My feet are upright and I am not afraid of shoes being crooked... Xia Chen thought to himself, but for some reason, his confidence always felt a little weak. It seemed that he had done something shameful. At the same time, there was another person.
The contradictory feeling of being noticed by a beautiful senior sister and secretly enjoying myself.
"What news is so important?" Xia Chen asked after calming down his complicated emotions. Since even Chen Qiushui said it was important, it must be very important. I hope this good news is good enough.
"Have you ever heard of the Yan-Zhao Alliance?" Chen Qiushui suppressed his smile and asked seriously.
"I've heard of it." Xia Chen thought for a while and confirmed, "But I only heard the name, but I don't know the specific situation. It is said to be an alliance formed by monks from the Great Yan Kingdom and the Great Zhao Kingdom."
"It is indeed an alliance, but it is not just the Great Yan Kingdom and the Great Zhao Kingdom, but a total alliance of monks from sixteen countries, including our Great Liang Kingdom." Chen Qiushui said.
"Ah..." Xia Chen was stunned. He had only heard of the Yan-Zhao Alliance while chatting with disciples of the Zhengyi Sect, Yun Ling and other sects on the way to the beast garden, but he didn't take it to heart at the time. He didn't expect that
It's such a big deal.
The Alliance of Monks from sixteen countries sounds like a behemoth.
"Actually, most of the direct disciples know about these things, but the degree of knowledge is different." Chen Qiushui said, "You have only been on the mountain for more than a year, and you have been busy going out for training, so it is normal that you don't know."
Xia Chen nodded, thinking that he knew very little about the outside world, and asked: "It seems that this news is related to the Yan-Zhao Alliance?"
"That's right." Chen Qiushui glanced at the crowd and said, "As monks, we already know that although Daliang Kingdom occupies a vast area, it is far from the entire world. There are many countries bordering Daliang Kingdom, such as those directly adjacent to us.
The Song Dynasty, Dayue Kingdom, David Kingdom, and
The Ming Kingdom, the Great Zhou Kingdom, and the Jin Kingdom even further away... and the most central ones, the Great Yan Kingdom and the Great Zhao Kingdom. There are a total of sixteen huge countries in this area. Because of the Great Yan Kingdom and the Great Zhao Kingdom,
They are the two most powerful and representative, so our place is also called the Yanzhao area."
Xia Chen and others listened attentively. Although they knew that there were other countries outside Daliang, this was the first time they knew about the specific cultivation environment outside Daliang.
Although Chen Lie and the others already knew the source of the news, they had never heard of the secrets of the Yanzhao area. They couldn't help but widen their eyes, realizing how insignificant they were.
Li Yatong and Li Qitong were completely stunned. They had never been out of Daliang Kingdom and thought this was the whole world. Only now did they realize that they were just frogs sitting in a well watching the sky.
"The Liang Kingdom is indeed very large, with no end in sight for tens of thousands of miles, and it has seven major sects of cultivation. However, in the Yanzhao area, the Liang Kingdom ranks behind a dozen or so in terms of both area and overall strength of the monks.
It is far behind Da Qi, Da Jin, Da Qin and other countries, and cannot be compared with the two powerful countries of Da Yan and Da Zhao." Chen Qiushui said.
As she spoke, she couldn't help but sigh. These secrets were also told to her by her master Zhan Kongchen after she became a magical monk. She couldn't help but feel sad when she thought that the place where she was was so weak and as calm as Chen Qiushui.
Somewhat depressed.
Xia Chen and Fang Qiu looked at each other. If Daliang was so weak based on the strength of the seven sects, then how strong should those powerful countries be? What kind of terrifying monks should Dayan and Zhao have?
"Sister, since there are strong and weak countries, why don't we see monks from powerful countries invading our country? It seems that we and other countries have been safe for a long time." Fang Qiu couldn't help but ask.
Several other people nodded. An imbalance in strength will inevitably lead to war, and monks are not good people who only pursue the unity of heaven and man. Yuan stones, magic weapons, materials, elixirs, food, clothing, housing, transportation...what are they?
Resources must not be consumed, and the resource consumption is far beyond ordinary people's imagination. If you want to improve your strength and expand the strength of your sect, you will inevitably compete for resources, and war is inevitable.
However, there has never been a large-scale monk war in Daliang. There are only normal grievances and conflicts similar to those in the world. This is unreasonable.
"Good question." Chen Qiushui praised, "In fact, the answer has already been given. The reason why the sixteen countries are in peace is actually the reason for the Yanzhao Alliance. The Yanzhao Alliance is composed of elites from the sixteen countries.
The monks not only stand above all countries, but also lead the monks in all countries. They check and balance the relationship between countries and avoid internal strife within the country, so there are no large-scale monk wars."
"Oh..." Everyone made a sound of understanding, and their faces suddenly changed.
"Senior Sister, so to speak, the Yanzhao Alliance is an organization that is superior to all practitioners in the Yanzhao area. Even the seven sects of our Daliang Kingdom must obey its orders, right? Then why have we never seen the Alliance?
Someone is coming to issue an order?" Sun Li couldn't help but ask.
"That's true." Chen Qiushui said, "The Yan-Zhao Alliance has absolute ruling power, which is equivalent to the emperor, but we are not even considered local princes, we can only be regarded as a peaceful county town, so the alliance will not control it. Because we are too weak, there is no need to take care of the specific affairs of our Zhengxuan sect." (Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
