In the tenth year since the chaos began, all the princes were either conquered by Emperor Qian or destroyed by Qi.
The states of Qian and Qi annexed the lands of those princes.
These princes thought they could compete in the world with their own strength.
But what they never expected was that Qian Guo's strength and Qi Guo's strength would be so strong.
And their target is directly themselves.
These princes had not had time to make any further progress. They just wanted to go out on their own, but they were beaten so miserably.
With these lessons learned, more and more princes took refuge in Qi State or were willing to surrender directly to Qian State.
These princes surrendered their military power in order to survive.
In the face of these surrendered princes, Qianguo and Qiguo naturally accepted it happily.
It's just to spare their lives, they have no value anyway.
What's a little helpless is that at that time, the Qianguo court always wanted to reduce the vassal status.
As a result, after so many years of reducing vassal status, nothing was accomplished.
But now, they didn't expect to get to this point directly through fighting, so they didn't know what to say for a while.
What Weilong and the others felt puzzled was the armies of the three armies of the Northern Wilderness.
The three armies of the Northern Wilderness have behaved very calmly and calmly during these ten years of chaos.
Everyone in the three armies of the Northern Wilderness thought that they would attack the Central Plains directly from the north.
As long as the three armies of the Northern Wilderness rebel, then the state of Qian will be too busy to concentrate its forces to conquer them.
And this is actually the reason why some princes rebelled.
In fact, the main reason why those princes chose to rebel in the first place was that they felt that the three armies of the Northern Wilderness would also take advantage of this chaos to compete in the world.
Then Qian Guo's military strength will be seriously affected.
This way, you can get enough time to breathe.
In addition, there is the existence of Qi Guo.
If the barbarian country enters the market again, you can definitely get more benefits at this time.
But what they didn't expect was that the three armies of the Northern Wilderness actually stood still and continued to confront the barbarians.
This made it impossible for the barbarians to take advantage of this loophole to attack.
No one could have imagined that the three armies of the Northern Wilderness would be so loyal. Even to this point, they are still stationed in the Northern Wilderness and refuse to give an inch.
After the princes were completely pacified, Chen Lu returned to the imperial capital. This time, Chen Lu was appointed as the general of the country, with a first-class official position, and could lead the three armies.
Chen Lu also didn't expect that he would go from being a small town to a high-ranking official, and then directly reach the highest official position in the military service.
For Chen Lu, he actually didn't have much attachment to this kind of official position.
Chen Lu's heart was not above the court.
If possible, Chen Lu just wants to live an ordinary life.
If it weren't for Qing Lian's incident, Chen Lu would have thought about leaving the Zhen Yun Envoy directly after making enough money, and then taking Qing Lian to live in seclusion.
Wait until the world becomes more peaceful before coming out.
But now, Qinglian is already the princess of Qi State, and she is also the most central figure in Qi State.
Chen Lu had no choice but to sit idly by and get involved in this chaotic world.
But having said that, according to Chen Lu's current status, there is probably no way he can really escape from the world, and he will definitely be involved in this whirlpool.
While recuperating in the capital, Chen Lu had already reached the late stage of Jade Pu Realm.
It is only a matter of time before Chen Lu reaches the immortal realm.
And Chen Lu remembered what the King of Beihuang said to him at that time.
That is, when he reaches the Jade Pu Realm, the King of Beihuang will tell him about his mother and parents.
So, during a break, Chen Lu went to Beihuang again.
This time, Chen Lu wanted to know about his parents.
And the King of Beihuang seemed to have guessed that Chen Lu would come.
The King of Beihuang had already been waiting for Chen Lu in his mansion.
"I've met the prince." In the Beihuang King's palace, Chen Lu bowed to the Beihuang King.
"Um"
King Beihuang responded and nodded.
"I've been waiting for you, Chen Lu, for a long time. Now that you're here, come in with me.
I think you must also want to hear about your parents.
In this case, I will tell you everything today.
"Okay." Chen Lu nodded and followed King Beihuang into the palace.
Chen Lu still felt a little nervous in his heart.
Although after so many years of fighting, Chen Lu's heart has become more determined.
After experiencing many life and death battles, Chen Lu's mentality has changed a lot compared to before.
However, I have been pursuing this truth for many years, so now I am inevitably feeling nervous.
In the courtyard, King Beihuang looked at the man sitting in front of him.
Ten years have passed so far.
Thinking back to ten years ago, Chen Lu still had a young look on his face, giving people the impression of a big boy.
But now, Chen Lu's face became more determined than before.
This kind of perseverance is honed and forged on the battlefield.
But even after staying on the battlefield for such a long time, Chen Lu still had a sense of elegance about him.
It seems that Chen Lu is a scholar, and his temperament as a scholar is ingrained in his bones and will never change.
But having said that, Chen Lu didn't seem to be very familiar with some Confucian classics at all.
His scholarly temperament is not fake.
Chen Lu was even a prodigal before.
So where exactly did Chen Lu read those books?
"I didn't expect that it has been ten years and you have reached the Jade Pu Realm."
Lan Wu sighed to Chen Lu.
"Even after ten years, uncle, you are still so tough."
Chen Lu said with a smile.
Many people believe that Lan Wu will rebel. Even if Lan Wu does not rebel, those under him will definitely rebel.
So those princes were not wrong in their judgment.
But what they didn't know was how much effort Lan Wu put into intimidating his subordinates.
As long as there is no order from Lan Wu, as long as Lan Wu is alive for one day, the Northern Wasteland Army will always go to the Central Plains.
And this is why Wei Long and Fang Lin were so bold to attack the princes directly and resist Qi State at all, but did not defend Beihuang and Barbarian States.
"I will tell you about your parents today!"
Lan Wu poured himself a pot of wine, even though Lan Wu didn't look much older than he did ten years ago.
However, Lan Wu looked much more haggard than before.
It can be seen that in the past ten years, Lan Wu has not lost much effort in the Beihuang Army.
"The story of your parents really goes back a long time. Your parents are from the Qian Kingdom, but your mother is from the Barbarian Kingdom.
Your father was once the most talented monk in the Qian Kingdom. Your father's talent was truly unimaginable. I felt ashamed when I saw it at the time.
This is especially true for your mother, and your father has made many friends and met many, many people.
Whether they are from the Barbarian Kingdom, the Qian Kingdom, or some monks from other dynasties, they all have certain friendships with your father.
It can also be said that you don't know each other without fighting. In addition, your father's heroic character means that you have friends all over the world.
As for your mother, your mother-in-law was once the legitimate daughter of a family in the Barbarian Kingdom and a lady from a famous family.
Your mother met your father in a secret place, and then they went through some difficulties and tribulations, and finally got together.
At the beginning, your mother's family was actually very opposed to the marriage between your parents.
Although your father's cultivation level is very high, his future is limitless.
But no matter what, the conflict between the Barbarian Kingdom and the Qian Kingdom is also very strong.
So it is extremely normal for them not to want your mother to marry your father.
But you don't know how strong your mother's character is.
Your mother will not marry unless you are your father.
Finally, your mother followed your father and flew away.
They live in seclusion in the mortal world and live an extremely ordinary life.
Besides, no one dared to disturb them.
No one dares to calculate their secrets.
Gradually, your mother became pregnant with you, but because your parents' realm was too high and their talents were too powerful, your fate was met with many disasters.
You need to use the cause and effect of the marriage contract to suppress it, otherwise, you will die miserably.
So your parents and all your friends made arrangements for each other's baby kisses.
These baby kisses are not compulsory. If you like it, then we can be together.
If you don't like it, then you don't have it.
It's just a causal relationship, so we old friends agreed.
After all, friends are helping me, and it’s not a big favor.
An engagement is something that can be revoked. Besides, if you really fall in love with her, it doesn't matter if you agree to it again.
After the engagement was made, your parents rarely moved around.
Your mother gave birth to you, and we visited you several times in the beginning.
You were still young at that time, so you must have no impression.
Your parents hope that you can live a stable life. Even if you don't become a monk, there won't be any problems.
At best, they hope you don't become a monk.
Because once you become a monk, you can't help yourself.
So they didn't teach you the technique in the beginning, that's why.
But suddenly one day, there was a restlessness underground.
You may not know that ancient monsters once lived underground.
Those ancient monsters are not completely dead.
They all live underground.
They look forward to one day leaving the underground, breaking out of the surface, and taking over the entire world again.
Your parents can't see this happening.
So, they decided to go underground in person to suppress these monsters and bring peace to the world.
And that place is called the Place of Death."
"Death place?"
Chen Lu was stunned for a moment when he heard the name of this place.
He couldn't help but remember that when he was in the Eighteenth Level of Hell, the place that the woman wanted to go to was the place of death. He didn't expect that his father was actually in the place of death.
"That's right, it's the place of death.
The place of death is actually the graveyard of those monsters, but it is also a time bomb.
The seal of the Dead Land is getting weaker and weaker, and they need to constantly guard the intersection of the Dead Land to prevent those monsters from coming out.
And now it has been guarded for thirty years.
Your parents are still living in death.
They want to strengthen the seal of the Dead Land so that those monsters cannot come out at all.
It's just that so much time has passed, and I don't know what happened to them.
But even so, there are still many monsters emerging from the dead ground.
All those monsters were dealt with quickly, but you just didn't know it.
The reason why I cannot let you know this is because your level is too low.
Cause and effect are interconnected, and the intensity of the connection is very large.
If you know what your parents are going to do, then as their child, some monsters may directly find you through cause and effect.
These monsters are not fools, they also have a lot of wisdom.
Even some of their leaders have the same wisdom as the human race.
They will come out secretly and go to the world at all costs, and then their target will be you directly.
In this case, they can coerce you and threaten your parents to leave the place of death.
Or even if your parents don't leave here for the sake of justice, they can still torture you in front of your parents to vent their hatred.
This is why I can't tell you the truth.
It’s different now, you are already a Jade Pu Realm monk.
As a Jade Purity monk, you have the ability to protect yourself, so there is no problem in knowing this."
Listening to the words of King Beihuang, Chen Lu fell into thought slightly.
Finally, Chen Lu raised his head and looked at King Beihuang: "Your Majesty, do my parents have to be guarded at death all the time? Is there no way to escape from that place?"
Although Chen Lu’s parents are not his real parents.
But no matter what, my current body is their flesh and blood.
Moreover, in his previous life, Chen Lu was an orphan, and he also longed to have parents.
And I have actually traveled through time and become Chen Lu, so Chen Lu’s parents are my parents, and I have to fulfill my filial duty.
"It's very difficult right now. Not only that, even your parents can't completely suppress that death.
Currently, there are more and more monsters coming out of the dead land recently.
We are worried that your parents may have had an accident."
Chen Lu frowned and thought for a long time. Chen Lu thought of something:
"Then do my parents have any enemies? Have they always wanted to assassinate me?"
