The Supervisor's eyes were calm as he nodded slightly.
"I will fulfill your wish."
His figure disappeared in a flash and appeared again in a flash. He was already sitting on the side of the chessboard, facing Xu Pingfeng.
White Shirt against White Shirt.
Xu Pingfeng picked up a black piece and said,
"You once said that heaven and earth are chess pieces, and everyone is a chess piece in this world. Even transcendents are no exception. At that time, I asked you, Teacher, are you a chess piece? Your answer is … no! "
Clap! The chess piece fell. Xu Pingfeng looked at the Supervisor opposite him and said in a low voice,
"I didn't understand it back then. After so many years, looking back, I finally understand the deeper meaning of your words.
"Teacher Supervisor, you are the gatekeeper, right?"
Galo Tree Bodhisattva, who was not far away, looked at the Supervisor.
The latter picked up a white piece and said in an old but calm voice,
"Among my six disciples, you are the most talented. But smart people tend to overthink. They are not as good as the undistracted fool.
"With your status, the gatekeeper is still too far away from you. Become a first-grade Warlock first. "
Clap! The white piece fell, and the black pieces on the chessboard exploded into powder.
Xu Pingfeng wanted to talk about the gatekeeper again, but he could not. He picked up a black piece calmly and said,
"Teacher is the Heaven's Mandate Master and can see the future. Even if you saw the loss of Daibun's national destiny, you could not stop it. The conflict between Southern Demon and Buddhism; the conflict between Daibun and the Northern Demon Barbarians and the Witchcraft Religion; the desire of the Gu Tribe to restore the Confucian Sages statue …
"These are all things you can't change. This is the general trend.
"What's more, those who know the secrets of heaven will be bound by it."
Clap! The black piece fell, and the white piece turned into powder.
There could only be one first-grade Warlock, and there could only be one piece on the chessboard.
The Supervisor picked up a white piece and smiled.
"I was prepared back then, but the power of Shifting Stars temporarily hid from the secrets of heaven, and you and the Venomous Old Man succeeded.
"However, how do you think that woman managed to escape from the Cloud State to the capital?"
Clap! The white piece fell, and the black piece turned into powder.
Xu Pingfeng's expression froze. He muttered to himself,
"Since you knew I was lurking in Yunzhou, why didn't you do anything in the past twenty years?"
The Supervisor glanced at him with a faint smile.
"You believe me? If I knew, would you have succeeded? "
"Xu" Pingfeng sighed.
"The divinator is always so mysterious. Forget it, it's all in the past. Back then, he decided to leave the capital and support the lineage from five hundred years ago to become the Heaven's Fate Master.
"I began to lay out my plan. Teacher, do you know which chess piece I laid out first?"
"Xu", Xu.
"It's Imperial Consort Chen," Xu Pingfeng said, and the white piece turned into powder, but he didn't look happy.
"Wei Yuan and I are in the same boat. Imperial Consort Chen's father was the Minister of Revenue, and he helped me a lot. When we were young, we decided to marry each other. Unfortunately, the affairs of the world were unpredictable. When Yuan Jing was recruiting beauties, she entered the palace.
"Back then, I used her to tell on Wei Yuan and Yuan Jing, forcing him to destroy his own cultivation. In recent years, all the news in the palace, big or small, had been obtained through her.
"But after the uprising, this chess piece became useless."
Imperial Consort Chen was one of the few people in the capital who remembered him. However, Imperial Consort Chen didn't know about Xu Pingfeng's rebellion plan.
Now, they were on opposite sides.
"Right, I also found out about the Yuanjing Emperor's condition and the existence of Joan of Arc through her. That's why I bewitched Yuan Jing to cultivate and destroyed the destiny of Daibun. "
The supervisor picked up a white piece and placed it down. Amidst the explosion of the black pieces, he said,
"I have to thank you and your son for helping me get rid of Joan of Arc. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to do anything to her. "
Xu Pingfeng didn't pick up the black piece. He looked down at the white piece on the chessboard and said,
"Teacher Supervisor, I've been reviewing and analyzing the Wu Zong rebellion all these years. There are two things I don't understand. The rebellion of the Wu Zong Emperor was quite hasty, and it was far from the preparation of the Yun Province today.
"But the Grandmaster reacted very hastily, as if he didn't expect you to rebel.
"I don't know if he deliberately ignored me. If not, then it's interesting. As the Grandmaster of the Heaven's Fate Master, how did you manage to deceive him? Whether it's the Heaven's Fate Shield or the stars, they can only shield one thing for a while.
"But the Heaven's Fate Master can see through the future. Even if he can shield it for a while, he can't shield it for a lifetime. Teacher Supervisor, how did you do it? "
At this point, a strange light flashed in Xu Pingfeng's eyes.
"Because you're the gatekeeper. That's why you can kill your master."
The Supervisor looked at him deeply.
"But if you're the gatekeeper, what's the first generation?"
A deep voice sounded from behind the Supervisor. At some point, a huge beast with white scales, antlers, and a crocodile's mouth and lion's mane appeared.
…
Dong! Dong! Dong!
In Songshan County, the drums were like thunder.
The militia ran around the city walls, carrying barrels of kerosene, black wood, boxes to hold cannons, and arrows.
The cannons quickly adjusted the shooting angle, and the crossbowmen carried bags of arrows and placed them at their feet. The defenders were all mobilized, doing their respective preparations in an orderly manner.
Under Xu Erlang's guidance, all of this had long been imprinted in the soldiers' instincts. Even the militia were well-trained.
After all, in the past month, they had practiced repeatedly every day, moving the defensive equipment up and down.
Miao Youfang stood on the parapet and looked into the distance. In the wilderness in the distance, a dark mass of troops was slowly advancing.
At the very front of the army were six strange chariots that were twenty feet tall and covered with iron sheets. They looked like huge shields. There were a total of six chariots, and each one had to be pushed by a dozen militiamen.
Miao Youfang had never seen such a thing before, but during this period of time, he had developed a keen sense of war, so he realized that it was made by the enemy. It was used to defend the city walls, and the cannons could bombard from above.
"Arrows!"
When the enemy slowly advanced into the firing range of the ballistae, Miao Youfang roared, and the sound waves rolled out.
"Bang, bang, bang!"
The arrow that was shaped like a long spear shot out and easily pierced into the big shield with a 'duo duo' sound.
However, the arrows that were famous for their penetrative power could not effectively destroy these giant shields.
Miao Youfang did not give up. When the enemy entered the firing range of the cannons, he waved his hand.
"Fire!"
Boom! The cannons suddenly retreated, and the muzzles spewed out flames. One after another, the cannons shot out and hit the giant shields like meteorites, creating expanding fireballs.
The giant shields exploded in the midst of the cannons. Broken wood and hot iron pieces sputtered in all directions.
But it blocked part of the defending army's firepower, reducing the casualties of the rebel army.
After paying the price of destroying six giant shields and three cannons, the rebel army finally pushed the line of soldiers into the firing range of their own cannons.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
The cannons of both sides bombarded each other. The top of the city wall and the wilderness swelled in flames, and thick smoke billowed.
The rebel army began to charge under the sound of the horn. They were as dense as ants, and their momentum was like a rainbow.
Xu Erlang stood on the top of the city wall, calmly waving a small flag and giving orders.
The people of the Dark Shadow Tribe were like ghosts, killing the enemy troops that were attacking the city like ants, and then the corpse manipulators of the Corpse Gu Tribe turned the corpses of the enemy troops into "allies."
The soldiers of the Strength Gu Tribe had terrifying strength, and they were responsible for throwing down black wood and rolling stones.
Under the command of Xu Erlang, they cooperated very well.
"Be careful!"
Miao Youfang, who was not far from Xu Erlang, suddenly pounced on him.
The world was spinning, and Xu Erlang heard a loud "boom". The parapet wall exploded, and an arrow shaped like a long spear pierced through the parapet wall, exploding where he was originally standing.
"Normal arrows can't contain Qi. This was thrown by an expert …" This thought flashed through Miao Youfang's mind, and he rushed to the edge of the city wall to look down. In the chaotic crowd, he saw a familiar yet strange figure.
Zhuo Haoran!
He held the head of a Dark Gu Tribe soldier in one hand, and a long spear in the other. He was looking at the top of the city wall with a sinister smile.
"Stop him!"
Xu Xinnian calmly waved the flag.
Inside the city, three hundred Flying Beast Army soldiers rushed out, holding barrels of kerosene in their claws. The knights carried bows on their backs, and held arrows wrapped in fire cotton in their hands.
This made the three hundred Flying Beast Army soldiers look like bombers.
The Flying Beast Army was the trump card of the army, and they were almost invincible on the battlefield. Even a Fourth Grade Warrior would not be able to threaten the Flying Beast Army with his bow and arrows if he did not cultivate the Art of Archery.
As for Riding the Wind, the flying speed of a Rank-4 Martial Artist was simply not worthy of being mentioned in the same breath as a flying beast.
In the sky, a flock of giant red birds flapped their wings, and there were five hundred of them.
At the head of the flock was a giant bird with a wingspan of ten meters, and its body was exaggerated. There were no knights on it.
In the front was a giant bird with a wingspan of ten meters, and it was extremely large. There were no knights on it.
Xu Erlang's pupils shrank.
…
Guo County!
Ji Xuan stood on top of the half-collapsed city wall, and looked at Sun Xuanji, who was standing proudly in the sky. He smiled and said in a relaxed tone,
"In my eyes, the city wall is no different from a piece of paper.
"Sun Xuanji, now that our army has broken into the city, the whole city is full of them. Do you dare to cover Guo County with your firepower? "
Sun Xuanji looked at him coldly.
Ji Xuan sneered and turned his gaze to the city. The people were locked in their houses, and the soldiers of the two armies were fighting in the streets.
"Softhearted!"
He shook his head and commented.
Sun Xuanji still did not speak.
Ji Xuan pulled out his saber, clicked his tongue, and smiled.
"It was your softhearted kindness that caused Dongling to fall. If I were you, I would destroy the enemy's elites even if it meant sacrificing eight hundred men to kill a thousand enemies. Even if all the people in the city were killed by the cannons.
"Ah, I forgot to tell you, the people you couldn't bear to kill have been refined into blood pills by me. It took half a month. Fortunately, you didn't realize it, or my efforts would have been in vain. "
As he spoke, he took out a wooden box and opened it. A strong life force flickered along with a red light.
Ji Xuan held the blood pill in his hand and swallowed it. His aura instantly soared and rose to a higher level.
Third Stage cultivators could use blood pills to strengthen their Qi and blood, but they could only reach the middle stage of Third Stage at most. After that, the blood pills would not be as effective.
"Since you don't dare to die together with us, I won't kill you. Go back to the Celestial Commissioner. In three days, Qingzhou will fall."
When Ji Xuan said this, he was very calm and collected.
…
On the vast ocean, Shirohime was squatting elegantly, Light spilling out of his left eye.
Xu Qi'an sat cross-legged at the stern of the boat and smiled.
"Why are you looking for me, Your Highness?"
Nine-tailed Celestial Fox's voice was soft and charming.
"A Spirit Wisdom Master came to Southern Border, saying he was looking for you. He couldn't find you, so he came to me to ask. "
Spirit Wisdom Master? Ilbu or Uda Pagoda? Heh, looking for me? I think he's courting death! Xu Qi'an was confused and amused at the same time.
"He said he's here to deliver the Golden Resonance Stone."
Nine-tailed Celestial Fox added.
"Huh?" Xu Qi 'an let out a confused sound, his face full of astonishment.
He suspected that he had misheard. The Golden Resonance Stone was one of the materials used to refine the Soul Summoning Banner. The Sorcerer Church was giving him the Golden Resonance Stone?
It was like Xu Pingfeng suddenly appearing in front of him and saying:
My son, I'm doing all this for you!
Nine-tailed Fox said impatiently, "If you agree, I'll tell him where you are. I'm busy and don't have time to chat with you. "
"Sure!"
Xu Qi'an nodded.
The little sheep had walked right into the trap. He had no reason not to agree.
"Don't go yet, Your Highness. I have something to ask you." Xu Qi'an hurried to stop Nine-tailed Fox before she left.
Nine-tailed Fox grunted. "What's the matter?"
"You should have seen the Netherworld Silkworm before, right?"
"Of course. Otherwise, how could I tell you where the Netherworld Silkworm Silk is?"
"Then you've long known the reason for the fall of the Gods and Demons?" Xu Qi'an said impatiently.
Nine-tailed Fox nodded lightly.
"Why didn't you tell me?"
"You didn't ask." Nine-tailed Celestial Fox said with a smile, "I know a lot of secrets.
"I know a lot of secrets, such as the fact that I'm still a virgin. Didn't I tell you?"
Xu Qi 'an thought to himself. He didn't care much about it and said in a low voice, "What do you mean by a virgin?"
"What I want to say is, do you know of the Gods and Demons called Da Huang?"
Nine-tailed Celestial Fox pondered for a moment and shook her head.
"I've never heard of it."
Xu Qi 'an told her about the characteristics of the "Great Wilderness" tribe and said,
He continued, "The Netherworld Silkworm told me that the White Emperor, who is also the Qilin clan, was devoured by a Da Huang after the end of the God and Demon Era. What do you think about this? "
The Light in Shirohime's left eye trembled violently. After a while, Nine-tailed Celestial Fox said in a low voice,
"I went out to the sea to look for my kind. For three months, not only did I not find my kind, I didn't even find a descendant of the Gods and Demons. I only saw it on the way back to the Nine Regions. "
The air suddenly turned silent.
Damn it … Xu Qi'an cursed in his heart. He thought of a possibility. That was, most of the descendants of the Gods and Demons were devoured by the White Emperor, no, the Da Huang.
Nine-tailed Celestial Fox fell into silence again. Obviously, she also thought of this terrifying possibility.
"Then why didn't it eat me?"
The silver-haired beauty was puzzled.
Xu Qi 'an took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and analyzed:
"There may be sequelae. Maybe he has something important to do recently and doesn't want to complicate matters."
He immediately thought of the connection between Xu Pingfeng and the White Emperor, and the battlefield in Qingzhou.
Nine-tailed Celestial Fox said in a low voice,
"When we meet it, we must be careful."
As for herself, she was not afraid. She was strong to begin with, and with the remnant of the Shen Shu beside her, if the Da Huang dared to come, it was hard to say who would be the one to kill.
After bidding farewell to Nine-tailed Celestial Fox, Xu Qi'an increased the speed of the small boat.
Not long after, the coastline was in sight.
At the same time, Xu Qi'an also saw a black figure coming with the wind. The figure was wrapped in a wizard's robe and had a hood.
The Spiritual Wisdom Master stopped not far away. It was not his real body, but an empty robe with the shape of a human.
"Xu Qi'an!"
A low voice came from the cloak.
"It's you, Ilb!"
Xu Qi'an had met him when he killed the King of Zhenbei. He immediately recognized the other person's voice.
An object floated out from the cloak and landed on the bow of the boat with a clang.
It was a light black ore, its surface filled with honeycomb-like holes. In the sea breeze, it let out a soft wail.
"What is the Witchcraft Religion trying to do?"
Xu Qi'an looked down and confirmed that it was the real Resonating Gold Ore.
"Heh, you can ask the Grand Wizard yourself."
Ilb's tone was disdainful. Because his real body was not here, he was not afraid.
"Because the Witchcraft Religion does not want to see the Buddhists occupy the Central Plains. This will benefit the Buddhists and suppress the Witchcraft Religion." Xu Qi'an guessed.
Ilb snorted, tacitly agreeing.
"If that's the case, why doesn't the Witchcraft Religion send troops? Why not form an alliance with Daibun and fight the Buddhists together. "Xu Qi'an persuaded.
"Heh, dog bites dog, a mouthful of fur."
Ilb sneered and expressed his stance.
"Then I don't need to thank you."
Xu Qi'an put away the Resonating Gold Ore. He was afraid that Ilb would immediately escape.
When he bowed, he did not forget to ask, "By the way, how long have you been enlightened?"
Ilb said calmly,
"I've been enlightened since the Great Zhou Dynasty."
He had not entered Rank-2 after hundreds of years. Useless! Xu Qi'an smiled.
"Then you must know the Initial Supervisor."
Ilb's tone turned cold.
"Why are you asking him? He's just a traitor. Those who are not of the same race must have different intentions. That traitor is from the Central Plains. When he was traveling in the northeast, he joined the Witchcraft Religion and was accepted as a disciple by the Grand Wizard. "
This surprised Xu Qi'an. "The Initial Supervisor is from the Central Plains?"
Ilb hummed in acknowledgment.
"The name of the Central Plains seems to be … Chai Xinjue!"
