the next day.

Early in the morning, when the genius was just beginning to dawn, the captured master concubine Xuanshi Fairy was not waiting for them and Cihang Jingzhai people to think of a way to rescue her. She was the first to be rescued by Master Kou Zhong and his disciples from the place that was considered to be the whole world today.

The most terrifying place in Luoyang City, the one that should not be approached or provoked, was released.

No one knows what happened to her that night. Anyway, the heroes who are still entrenched in Luoyang City only know that no one has seen her in Luoyang City since then.

same!

The number one master of Taoism in Middle-earth, the "Sanren" Ning Daoqi, has never been seen again.

Speaking of which, that veteran was quite unlucky!

When he was invited by Jing Nian Zen Monastery, he probably thought that it would not be too difficult to deal with and hold back the "Caracal Bear" Anne, who was also a great master, and buy time for Shi Feixuan and others to seize the 'He's Bi'.

The thing is, after all, both of them are top martial arts masters. It may be difficult to defeat each other, but maintaining an undefeated situation will only be easy?

result……

Who would have thought that "Caracal Bear" Annie could be so terrifying. With just one palm, he, the top Taoist master in Middle-earth, and his martial arts grandmaster level existence who has been famous for many years, could fight Nayu Wenji, "

"The Universe in His Sleeve" Du Fuwei and Han Gaitian of the Haisha Gang were blown away in one fell swoop?

At that time, many people subconsciously believed that he was dead.

After all, many people saw it at that time. The moment the old man was blown away, the clothes on his hands and chest were all broken, and blood spurted out from his skin, mouth and nose and he was blown away hundreds of feet away.

At that level, no one would be confident that they could handle it.

However, since no one found his body in Luoyang City, people thought that he was probably not dead. But what is certain is that being seriously injured by the "feral bear" palm would definitely be inevitable. I'm afraid

Now he is hiding in a secret corner outside the city to heal his wounds secretly.

As for Monk Nakong Kong and the Four Vajra Protectors of Jing Nian Chan Monastery, no one cares about them, because compared to their insignificant bald donkeys, the heroes of today's martial arts world only know:

The 'He's Bi' and the 'Yang Gong Treasure' really belong to Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling. Anyone who wants to capture those two treasures that can conquer the world must first weigh his own weapons.

The function cannot withstand the palm of that "Caracal Bear" Annie!

Yu Wenhuaji, "The Universe in His Sleeve" Du Fuwei, Han Gaitian of the Haisha Clan, the martial arts grandmaster who has been famous for many years, and the top Taoist master of China "Sanren" Ning Daoqi and others all risked their lives and went to verify it.

Passed.

Facts have proved: no matter who it is, no matter how many people there are, none of them can stop the palm of "Caracal Bear" Annie!

From this, it can be seen that the "ferocious bear" should be the number one person in the martial arts world of Middle-earth today, far above "Sanren" Ning Daoqi and "Evil King" Shi Zhixuan, and he is well-deserved.

even……

Some good people speculate that she is probably still the number one person in the world of martial arts, even the Goguryeo "Yijian Master" Fu Cailin, or the "Martial Master" Bi Xuan outside the Great Wall, or the "Heavenly Sword" Song Que

Far inferior?

and……

Some people even rumored that she had most likely reached the legendary supreme realm of Shattered Void and was a living land god. She had even lived for thousands of years. However, due to various reasons, she stayed here and watched.

She just looks like a little girl?

But no matter what!

What the heroes in the world are talking about is that after that night, the faces of Cihang Jingzhai, Na Shifei Xuanshi Xianzi, Li Clan, Jing Nian Chanyuan and other prestigious sects have all disappeared!

Among them, the most unlucky one is the Dugu Valve!

It may be because You Chuhong and the masters of the Dugu Clan were overly involved in what happened that night, that they were caught off guard by Wang Shichong, who was fishing in troubled waters, and lost both Luoyang City and the Imperial Palace.

Finally, the remaining defeated generals had to prepare to return to Taiyuan together with Li Clan, who was related by marriage. It can be said that he lost his wife and lost his troops. Following Cihang Jingzhai did not gain anything, and even his hometown was at a loss.

lost.

But, fortunately, those things have passed.

Two days after that night, Luoyang quickly returned to calm after being monopolized by Wang Shichong. The losers in the battle for 'He's Bi', such as Cihang Jingzhai, Jingnian Chanyuan and Li

Of course, no one cares about them anymore, and people gradually begin to focus on Xu, Kou and their master.

Isn’t this?

After driving away the Dugu Clan forces that had been entrenched in Luoyang for many years and moving into the palace to control the proclaimed emperor, the former Yue King Yang Tong, and completely stabilizing the situation in Luoyang, Wang Shichong couldn't wait to invite Ben, who was with him in

Kou Zhong, who had a cooperative relationship in private, went to the palace to meet.

And Wang Shichong's purpose is of course for the piece of 'He's Bi', which is the national jade seal!

After completely controlling Luoyang and driving away the Dugu Clan, his old enemy for many years, Wang Shichong's ambition to occupy Luoyang and the imperial palace completely expanded.

Nowadays, all the heroes in the world are rising together, and there are many people who claim to be kings and emperors. Not to mention those bandits who were born as grassroots bullies. Li Yuan, Xiao Mian and Yuwen Clan of Li Clan alone have all proclaimed themselves emperors or emperors one after another.

It was to support someone to proclaim himself emperor, so that the status of Yang Tong in Luoyang, the capital of the Sui Dynasty, and in the palace suddenly became awkward.

In the past, it was okay because the palace and parts of Luoyang were controlled by the Dugu Clan, but now, since the Dugu Clan has been defeated and driven away, they sit in Luoyang and the large plains of Hetao, and they need people, money, and food.

Wang Shichong, who was in charge of food, could no longer sit still.

He eagerly wants to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor in Luoyang and the palace, so that he can legitimately compete with the Li Clan, Dugu Clan, Xiao Xian, Wagang, Du Fuwei and other forces to dominate the world?

And the 'He's Bi', which wanted to become emperor, was controlled by Kou Zhong, Xu Ziling's master and apprentice, and even caused a big turmoil for it, and also involved countless wealthy families and heroes.

The 'Jade Seal of the Kingdom', which has the orthodox symbolic meaning of the throne, has become the most critical item!

And that was the main reason why Wang Shichong couldn't wait to invite Kou Zhong to the palace to discuss matters today.

Unfortunately……

Back then, Cihang Jingzhai, Shi Feixuan and others had mobilized almost all their connections and connections, allowing countless enemies, friends and experts from all walks of life to come to the door one after another for advice and questioning. In the end, they even brazenly used the strongest force to seize things that they had failed to achieve.

Then how could Wang Shichong have the slightest chance of getting Kou Zhong to submit with just a few words?

then!

Seeing that the talks collapsed and Kou Zhong refused to hand over the "He's Bi", the furious Wang Shichong directly ordered the palace's golden-armored guards to surround Kou Zhong with sharp blades.

"oh?"

Looking at Wang Shichong, who was sitting high on the dragon chair and couldn't wait to wear the dragon robe and crown before he became emperor, and then looked at the dozens of soldiers surrounding him with long spears surrounding him in the center of the hall, he saw that the situation was very fast.

It was about to get out of hand and the relationship between the two parties was on the verge of breaking up. With disdain on his face, Kou Zhong of course looked at Wang Shichong on the dragon chair without fear and sneered loudly and sarcastically said:

"Ha ha ha ha!"

"Wang Shichong!"

"Although I, young Kou Zhong, don't have the level of skill that my master has, I'm afraid it won't be that easy just for you and these crooked men to capture me, right?"

"Moreover..."

"Taking a step back, even if you can really defeat me today, my master is still in Luoyang City. Do you think you have the master nun Xuan Shi from Cihang Jingzhai and the number one Taoist in China?

What is the confidence of master "Sanren" Ning Daoqi?"

While mocking, Kou Zhong mentioned the name of their little master Anne without hesitation, and as expected, he instantly saw the expression on the faces of the surrounding soldiers and Wang Shichong and others who were sitting on the dragon chair.

The name is a look of fear and hesitation.

"besides!"

"We still have an alliance at the moment. If you take action today, in the future, you want our Shuanglong Army to cooperate with you to deal with Li Mi in Wagang, Li Clan in the northwest, Zhu Jie in the south, Du Fuwei in the east and others.

, then it’s impossible!”

"By then..."

"Do you think you can withstand the attacks of Li Clan or Li Mi and defend this important place in Luoyang?"

"Don't think that after being the emperor for only a few days, he becomes someone else's soul, and he will be laughed at for thousands of years and become that clown!"

Seeing this, Kou Zhong of course kept up his efforts and continued to speak, half scolding and half persuading.

To be honest, if he hadn't needed Wang Shichong to continue to guard Luoyang, the former capital of the Sui Dynasty, and attract the attention of all parties and even continue to consume the power of all parties, he would have just rushed out of the palace, where would he still be standing?

Are you talking nonsense to a short-sighted guy here?

"you!

"

Kou Zhong's heart-wrenching words certainly made Wang Shichong blush with anger and couldn't utter a word of rebuttal for a long time.

However, I knew that what Kou Zhong said was the truth, and that whether it was the little Grand Master girl or Li Mi from Wagang, the Li Clan in the northwest, Zhu Jie in the south, and Du Fuwei in the east, they were all huge threats to him and

He was so worried that he finally had to hold back the rage in his heart for the time being. No one dared to let the soldiers come forward to attack Kou Zhong.

"snort!"

"That's fine!"

"Let me put aside the matter of proclaiming myself emperor for now, but you, Kou Zhong, took the 'He's Bi' by force and refused to return it. Could it be that you yourself want to proclaim yourself emperor?"

Then, with a wave of his hand, he signaled the soldiers to retreat first. After they were no longer so tense, Wang Shichong snorted and sarcastically said.

Obviously, even if they are allies, the 'He's Bi' was obtained by Kou Zhong. He would not be willing to do that kind of thing anyway, especially since Kou Zhong is still in Luoyang at the moment.

situation on the ground.

"This is a big fallacy!"

"Prince, you must have seen what happened in the past few days, right?"

"The 'He's Bi' was originally prepared by Cihang Jingzhai's master concubine Xuan and the monks from Jingnian Temple to build momentum for Li Shimin of the Li Clan. The so-called 'king selection' is just an excuse. They had already

I am determined to support Li Shimin of the Li Clan!"

"And the reason why I took that thing as my own..."

"It's just that I can't stand the pretentiousness of those people, and can't bear the people of the world and heroes from all walks of life to be deceived by them, so I have to temporarily keep it for you!"

"If the prince does not believe it, I will swear this!"

"In the future, if the world is not at peace and all thieves are not punished, I, Kou Zhong, will never proclaim himself emperor even if I hold the 'He's Bi'. If I disobey this, I will be punished by heaven and earth!"

"Other!"

"If the princes rule the world in the future, Kou Zhongding, the young man, will hand over the 'Heshi Bi' with both hands! There will be no hesitation!"

"

Kou Zhong, who had no intention of proclaiming himself emperor in a hurry, and who never thought that Wang Shichong, who occupied a place like Luoyang and was surrounded by powerful enemies, had room for development, stretched out his sword finger and swore an oath to the sky.

.

"Father!"

"What Brother Kou said is true!"

"Father, please think again?"

Seeing that Wang Xuanshu, who had given enough face and steps to Kou Zhong, and knew that what Kou Zhong said was indeed the truth and that his family was indeed not suitable to be enemies of Kou Zhong, Master and the three of them, Wang Shichong's son hurriedly stepped forward to sit on the dragon chair.

Wang Shichong, whose face was gloomy and uncertain, carefully tried to persuade him.

"Well……"

"Oh well!"

"Since you have said so, I will not ask for the Heshi Bi for the time being!"

Although he was still a little unhappy about not getting He's Bi, Wang Shichong, who thought that even if he got it, it would be difficult to keep it from Cihang Jingzhai, Shi Feixuan and others, thought about it and could only use the steps to calm down.

Change your tone and give it up for now.

"only……"

"Now that the Dugu Clan has been repulsed by me, and Luoyang is in my hands, how can you, Kou Zhong, and the Shuanglong Army help me?"

Then, after pondering for a while, he began to ask Kou Zhong about the next step of cooperation between the two parties, and that was the main purpose of inviting him to come. As for the previous behavior of interrogating 'He Shi Bi', it was

It's just an interlude.

“It’s easy!”

"Why don't the princes imitate Cao Cao, the great hero of the late Han Dynasty?"

"Now that you are sitting in the majestic city of Luoyang, and with the emperor in your hands, you should regard yourself as orthodox and attack all rebels with integrity!"

"My dear, I will return to the south in the near future to coordinate with the prince, and I will choose an opportunity to attack Du Fuwei, Li Mi and others. By then, the prince will have no worries about failing to achieve his great cause."

Kou Zhong himself didn't believe the above words, but that didn't stop him from using them as a soup to deceive Wang Shichong.

After all, he never expected the other party to last long under the siege of Li Clan or Li Mi and others, and since the other party was destined to be a withered bone in the grave, he naturally took advantage of it as much as possible.

"Well……"

"rational……"

Nodding, the old and cunning Wang Shichong didn't know if he really listened, so his face finally looked a little better, and then he continued to discuss with Kou Zhong.

"..."

"..."

In this way, the two sides got rid of the initial unhappiness, and then formally began a series of in-depth discussions on Luoyang's defense issues, the situation of the forces such as Li Clan and Li Mi, and future cooperation between the two sides, and continued until nightfall.

After arriving, the two parties who had basically reached the next step of cooperation intention said goodbye with some hesitation.

And when Kou Zhong returned to their villa, he learned from Xu Ziling and Huan Huan that their little master Annie from Shuanglong had gone to have fun again and left a letter saying:

Tell the three of them not to wait for her. They have probably left Luoyang now?

"You're so good!"

"Ziling!"

"And Huan Huan, we can't stay in Luoyang for a moment any longer. Come on, go and pack your things. Let's run away overnight!"

Hearing that his master had left Luoyang and went off to have fun somewhere, Kou Zhong, who knew the seriousness of the situation, almost fainted from fright, and then hurriedly gave these instructions to Xu Ziling and Huan Huan.

"No need to clean it up!"

"Everything is in the storage bag, we can leave at any time!"

Patting the storage bag on his body, Xu Ziling also answered in a low voice with the same serious expression.

Of course he also knew the seriousness of the matter, and if it weren't for waiting for Kou Zhong to come back, he and Huan Huan would have run away long ago. How could they dare to stay in this villa?

"It's okay to go!"

"But……"

"Master Kou Zhong, where are the treasures and holy relics of Duke Yang?"

Huanwan naturally has no objection to leaving Luoyang, because she also knows what will happen if outsiders, especially people from Cihang Jingzhai, find out that little master Anne is not here, and even those who are still entrenched in

The heroes in Luoyang know that the three of them will not be able to eat and go around in circles?

but!

If she leaves Luoyang without getting the holy relic, that is, the 'Evil Emperor's Relic', she will definitely not be willing to do so!

"!

"

"Without further ado!"

"Let's go find Yang Gong's treasure as soon as it gets dark, use storage bags to empty the contents overnight, and then go back to Jiangnan!"

Without even thinking about it, Kou Zhong slapped his thigh and decided to take action immediately!

"okay!"

"To ensure nothing goes wrong, Wu'er asked Master Zhu to lead people outside to provide support?"

Hearing that she finally wanted to go to Yang Gong's treasure and get the Evil Emperor's relics, Huan Huan was ecstatic, and then she hurriedly suggested this to Kou Zhong.

"OK!"

"a man of his words!"

"I told you that the Evil Emperor's relics will be given to you, but you can't take anything else!"

Nodding, Kou Zhong did not refuse and directly accepted.

After all, now that his relationship with the Yin Kui Sect has been made public and formal cooperation has begun, and their master is away, if someone follows them or some powerful guy appears, such as Shi Zhixuan or something, there will be

It is also a kind of insurance for the Queen of Yin to provide support outside.

soon!

After the plan was decided, the three of them began to act separately, and then prepared to take action at nightfall.

They decided that when the time comes, the three of them would sneak into the treasure, collect their belongings, and run away. As for the manpower in this garden, they would be asked to disperse and evacuate here under various names tomorrow, and go elsewhere or simply stay in Luoyang as a peace treaty.

Just contact Wang Shichong.
