Zhou Bao pretended to be mysterious, which made Jiang Xiao feel helpless. But knowing that Zhou Bao was not courting death and was full of confidence, Jiang Xiao felt relieved.
Zhou Bao was the core of this group of people and also their backer. If anything happened to Zhou Bao, not to mention the future glory and wealth, even the lives of their families would be in danger. Therefore, he was very concerned about Zhou Bao and everything about this territory.
After Zhou Bao left Jiang Xiao, he used his body movement and with a few flashes, he arrived at the construction site of the yard. But his body movement was so fast that the people who were involved in the construction of the villa did not notice him at all. They only felt that a breeze blew past them.
"Golden Rooster, what's going on with Kunlun Mountain?"
Entering the depths of the mineral vein through the secret passage opened by Sun Rat of Emptiness, Zhou Bao saw Golden Rooster chatting with Moon Deer of Extended Net at first glance. Just now, when he went to meet the people of Kunlun Mountain, Golden Rooster secretly transmitted a voice message to him, telling him not to be polite. And most of the words he said to Jiang Xiao were transmitted by Golden Rooster.
Therefore, after getting rid of Jiang Xiao, he immediately went to find Golden Rooster. He wanted to figure out what was going on.
"What's going on? Kunlun Mountain wants to deal with you!" Seeing him coming, Golden Rooster looked at Moon Deer of Extended Net and smiled. "Boy, you don't even know the principle of not showing off your wealth. Even if you have a Pure Yang Celestial Device, you can't show it like this. Now you've attracted a pack of evil wolves!"
"Bullsh * t! Even if it's Kunlun Mountain, it doesn't make sense for them to find trouble with me all of a sudden. Don't they want to hide their strength and bide their time?"
"Robbing your Pure Yang Celestial Device, they can also hide their strength and bide their time!" Golden Rooster laughed. "It's Moon Deer of Extended Net who found out the clue. Let him tell you!"
Hearing this, Zhou Bao was slightly stunned and turned his eyes to Moon Deer of Extended Net.
Moon Deer of Extended Net smiled, "There are two reasons why Kunlun Mountain wants to deal with you. First, your territory is within their former sphere of influence, and you are also the most difficult guy to deal with in Kunlun Mountain's sphere of influence. As long as you are dealt with, it won't be difficult for Kunlun Mountain to restore its power before the war. For them, it's just that their worshipers have changed from the tribes of Northern Yuan to the lords from the south. You know, though these lords have made great contributions to the destruction of Northern Yuan, their strength is not very strong, and they can't resist Kunlun Mountain at all. As for the Jin, it's too far away for them to manage such a place. Second, they are also instigated and enticed by others. Someone wants to deal with you, but they dare not do anything openly, so they are ready to make use of Kunlun Mountain to deal with you!"
"Prince Ning?" Zhou Bao's eyes flashed and said thoughtfully.
"Smart. Yes, Prince Ning. How did you think of that?"
"In this northwest region, although there are many enfeoffed lands, there is no lord who can threaten me. Whether it is strength or influence, they are far from me. Only Prince Ning, who is a noble prince, has great schemes and conflicts with me. It is just that his actions in the northwest are still confidential, so it is inconvenient for him to openly conflict with me. But if he wants to cause me some trouble in secret, he can still do it!"
"Exactly. This matter was provoked by Prince Ning!" Moon Deer of Extended Net said, "But in addition, I also figured out Prince Ning's conspiracy!"
"He wants to plot against the northwest?" When Zhou Bao heard the word "plot", he suddenly shuddered and thought of a possibility. Combined with all the previous clues, Zhou Bao's eyes flashed fiercely. "This guy wants to plot against the northwest?"
Moon Deer of Extended Net nodded slightly, and a trace of appreciation flashed in his eyes. "Exactly. Prince Ning wants to plot against the northwest. He secretly bought the territories of some weak lords and wanted to use these territories as his capital. He also secretly colluded with Kunlun Mountain and cooperated with them. He wanted to use Kunlun Mountain as his military backing, establish a foothold in this northwest area, and then dominate the northwest area!"
"Dominate the northwest area?" Zhou Bao sneered. "In this way, I've become a thorn in his side!"
"Yes, but your strength has grown too fast, which is beyond his expectation. Moreover, your influence in the northwest area is getting bigger and bigger. That's why he wants to get rid of you as soon as possible. Even if he can't get rid of you, he wants to weaken your strength and make you surrender to him!" Moon Deer of Extended Net said with a smile.
"Dominate the northwest? How could he think of such a thing? He's a prince of the Jin. Although he's not the crown prince, he's one of the strongest princes. It's not like he won't have a chance in the future!" Jin Yuquan frowned slightly, as if he couldn't figure it out. "Moon Deer of Extended Net, you didn't tell me this before!"
"What's the use of telling you? With your brain and the question you just asked, people will laugh their heads off!" Moon Deer of Extended Net rolled his eyes and sneered. "You don't even understand. This is Prince Ning's cleverness!"
"Cleverness? I can't see how he's clever!" Being provoked by Moon Deer of Extended Net, Golden Rooster didn't turn hostile on the spot, but his face didn't look good. "What's so good about the northwest area?"
"What's so bad about it? If he can dominate the northwest area, even if he can't establish a country, he'll be almost like an emperor. The area of the northwest area is not smaller than the Central Plains. As long as he manages it well, it'll be a big country that can be compared to the Western Region in a few decades. Isn't it better than fighting with a few treacherous brothers in the Central Plains for the throne that you don't know when you'll get it?" Moon Deer of Extended Net sneered. "This is his cleverness. He already knows that the throne won't fall into his hands. That's why he gave up everything in the Central Plains and transferred all his strength to the northwest area!"
"What did you say? He transferred all his strength to the northwest area?" Zhou Bao was shocked and an incredible light flashed in his eyes. "This guy really wants to unify the northwest area. Isn't he afraid of the Central Plains' interference? His father isn't someone who can be easily fooled!"
"That's why he cooperated with Kunlun Mountain. That's why he has been hiding in the dark without making any big movements!" Moon Deer of Extended Net said. Zhou Bao's eyes gradually narrowed.
He thought for a while and said, "This Prince Ning has accumulated great power when he was in the Central Plains. If he really wants to deal with these lords in the northwest, he can quickly subdue them without making any big movements. The northwest area is cold and sparsely populated. These lords are new here and have no foundation at all. If he cooperates with Kunlun Mountain, the local bully, and suppresses the lords in the northwest area with great power, he can easily control these lords. Just like those small lords who transferred their territories to him, they have no ability to resist at all!"
"Yes, he only needs to secretly control these territories, hand over the rights of these territories to his own people, and wait for the right time!" Moon Deer of Extended Net said, "Now his only trouble is you. You are the most powerful and the most difficult to deal with among the vassal states in the northwest. You are so smart and so close to him. If he makes too many small movements, you will definitely be aware of it. Therefore, if he wants to make his plan go smoothly and realize his ambition, the first one he needs to get rid of is you!"
"It seems that he is really unlucky. He chose the wrong opponent from the beginning!" Zhou Bao sneered. "Prince Ning is not qualified to kill me!"
"That's right. At most, Prince Ning cares about your relationship with Tian Long Taoism, but he will never think that you have such a deep relationship with our Immortal Palace. In fact, whether he knows about the existence of the Immortal Palace is still a problem!" Moon Deer of Extended Net said with a smile.
"He should know about the existence of the Immortal Palace, but he won't know about my relationship with it!" Zhou Bao shook his head and said, "Since he wants to play, I'll play with him. It's his bad luck to want to make trouble in the northwest!"
You see, the Seven Troops of the South Yard of Northern Yuan have been swallowed up by the Jin. Doing this kind of thing in the south is basically courting death. As for the central area of Northern Yuan, it has been conferred to those powerful millennium-old families and people with great influence behind them. He can't do anything there. The northeast is facing the sea and has no way to retreat. Moreover, it hasn't been enfeoffed, and the original tribes still exist. It's a barren land with no value. Therefore, the only place he can stir up is the northwest! "
"I see!" Zhou Bao nodded. "Anyway, Prince Ning is a smart man. What a pity!"
"Yes, what a pity!"
"By the way, how is the business in the Azure Secret Area going?"
"Mouse is still busy inside, but the progress is good. It should not take more than half a year. It should be finished in about four or five months!"
"I'd better finish it as soon as possible. I'm bored to death here!"
"Are you still bored now?" Moon Deer of Extended Net laughed and said, "We are bored. We live underground all day long!"
"You asked for it. You can just let Mouse stay here alone. Can't you go up and have a walk? Although my place is remote, the scenery on Jilei Mountain is really good. You are so dedicated to your duty that I feel embarrassed to invite you! " Speaking of this, Zhou Bao smiled and said, "Besides, if you are so damn dedicated, how can you have so much information?"
Moon Deer of Extended Net blushed and said, "I have my sources of information. You don't need to ask about this. You'd better go and do your own business!"
"Yes, I'm going to be busy. Hehe, Kunlun Mountain will take action soon. Finally, I don't have to be bored anymore!" Zhou Bao laughed.
"Kunlun Mountain is the second largest school in the north with many experts. Can you handle them alone?" Golden Rooster was worried and said, "Although you have a Pure Yang Celestial Device, you are only one person after all!"
"I understand. Don't worry, I have a sense of propriety. Of course, I won't be so stupid as to fight them head-on. I know you have your own channels. Find a way to get Wang She here!" Zhou Bao laughed and said, "As long as he comes, everything will be easy!"
"You want Wang She to help you?"
"I don't have enough people here. How can I handle the situation alone? Wang She has nothing to do in the Tian Long Taoism all day long. Can't he come here to relax? "Zhou Bao laughed." I believe that he must want to come here to have some fun, right? Not only him, if Tian Long Taoism knows about this, I'm afraid they will also agree to let him come and beat Kunlun Mountain's arrogance. After all, there were three big schools in the world in the past. Suddenly, there are two more. No matter which one of the three schools it is, they will be a little unhappy. This time, if I can help them to beat Kunlun Mountain, I believe they will be very happy. "
"I understand what you mean. I will inform Wang She immediately. He will come in five days!"
"That's good!" Zhou Bao smiled and said, "Then you can do your work here. If you need anything, just tell me. I will try my best to meet your needs!"
… …
… … …
Kunlun Mountain acted so quickly that Zhou Bao was caught unprepared. On the third day after they left, Zhou Bao received a message saying that a group of herdsmen appeared in his territory and planned to stay there for a long time. The message was sent by Kelsang. These days, Kelsang had become the leader of the original Sinners of Northern Yuan in his territory. He also had a high prestige among the people in his territory. In addition, he also had a close relationship with some surviving Wanderers of Northern Yuan. Therefore, he had a very well-informed channel of information.
In Zhou Bao's territory, there were also some idle nomads. Generally speaking, Zhou Bao didn't care about these Sinful Hearts who survived the destruction of Northern Yuan and were unwilling to change their customs and settled down. As long as they didn't make trouble, it was fine. In fact, they couldn't make trouble. They were nomadic on the land and occasionally contacted some Sinful Hearts in Zhou Bao's territory. They exchanged their cattle and sheep for some necessities of life and exchanged information. These were all normal and within Zhou Bao's scope of permission.
However, these days, the situation seemed to have changed.
Someone began to organize the nomads wandering in his territory and formed a tribe. It seemed that they intended to stay in Zhou Bao's territory for a long time.
That was not all. If they were really ordinary nomads, Zhou Bao would not care about them. However, this group of new nomads obviously had the aura of Kunlun Mountain. According to the message sent by Kelsang, it seemed that they came from Kunlun Mountain and wanted to establish a new tribe in his territory.
It should be known that this territory belonged to Kunlun Mountain in the period of Northern Yuan. In their eyes, Kunlun Mountain was a holy mountain, and the people who came from Kunlun Mountain were the messengers of Everlasting Heaven.
This group of nomads, whose country had been destroyed, wandered everywhere, and were unwilling to submit to the new lord. When they suddenly met the messengers from the holy mountain, they were all excited as if Everlasting Heaven really thought of them and sent Divine Messengers to save them.
Under the bluff of the people from Kunlun Mountain, they were going to establish a new tribe in Zhou Bao's territory, less than 100 miles away from his town centralization.
"These damn guys, don't they know how to write the word 'death'?!"
After hearing the specific location of the tribe, Zhou Bao could not help bursting out a strong murderous intent. Zhou Bao knew that place. It was also at the foot of Jilei Mountain, where the water and grass were abundant and the climate was pleasant. It could be regarded as a treasure land. Zhou Bao originally thought that when his nest was built and his territory developed, that place would be his first target when he started to develop the surrounding areas. Unexpectedly, it was occupied by someone from Kunlun Mountain.
This was a naked provocation!
He was too subjective. They did choose that place because of its good Fengshui. But they didn't know that Zhou Bao wanted that place, did they?
Whether it was subjective or objective, it was obvious that they were not going to give Zhou Bao face by messing around on the land that was given by the imperial court. And Zhou Bao naturally did not want to give face to Kunlun Mountain.
With Zhou Bao's speed, the distance of more than 100 miles was just a matter of a few breaths. However, what made Zhou Bao furious was that, while standing in the air, he saw a dozen tents had been set up in the distance. Some were big, some were small, and the layout was similar to that of the tribes in Northern Yuan. There was a huge tent in the center, which was where the chief and headman of the tribe lived. The rest of the tents were for ordinary herdsmen to live in. Within a radius of 10 miles, this tribe had been occupied by this sudden emergence.
At the same time, Zhou Bao also clearly felt that there were several faintly powerful spirits in this tribe. These were the spirits of experts.
"Five experts above Level Seven and more than 20 experts of the Bone-Forging Realm. This strength is enough to wipe out a medium-sized world. This Kunlun Mountain is really willing to do this. However, it is really stupid to do so!"
Zhou Bao's eyes were full of killing intent. With a flash of golden light behind his head, he had already taken out the Golden Flame Mirror. A straight golden light fiercely blasted at the largest tent.
He had just felt that three of the five experts above Level Seven were in the largest tent, and the other two were moving around in the tribe. Beside them were more than 20 experts of the Bone-Forging Realm. They should be patrolling.
Therefore, Zhou Bao launched an attack without hesitation.
"Oh no!" In the tent, after the golden light of the Golden Flame Mirror shot out, three experts headed by a white-clothed old man felt that something was wrong. They stood up one by one and wanted to leave, but how could their speed compare with the speed of light?
As soon as they moved, the violent golden light shot straight down and covered the whole tent. After being shrouded by the golden light, the tent instantly turned into flying ashes. In the golden light, three light spots flickered. It was the three experts who launched their Gang Qi, trying to resist the power of the Golden Flame Mirror.
However, compared with the powerful Golden Flame Mirror, their Gang Qi could only resist for a moment. Like a lamp that was about to go out, it was pinched out by the golden light.
Everything happened so suddenly that no one thought that Zhou Bao would launch an attack without any warning. No one thought that the Pure Yang Celestial Device in his hand could be so powerful. Even the Second Elder, whose cultivation had reached Level Eight, could not resist it even for a moment. When they reacted, it was already too late.
The three experts, together with the upstart in the tent, were all turned into ashes under Zhou Bao's attack.
"Second Elder, Zhou Bao, how dare you!"
One of the two experts, who was patrolling the tribe with more than 20 subordinates, was the first to react. He roared and raised his hand. A beam of white light shot toward Zhou Bao with the force of a thousand kilograms.
"Insignificant skill!" Zhou Bao just glanced at the white light, and a sneer flashed across his face. The golden light in his hand flashed and covered the white light. Under the illumination of the Golden Flame Mirror, the white light stopped in mid-air and could not move. It turned out to be a white bead, sparkling and translucent.
"A good celestial device. It should be a Mysterious Celestial Device. Unfortunately, don't you know that I have a Pure Yang Celestial Device?" Zhou Bao smiled coldly and lifted his fingertips. The golden light of the Golden Flame Mirror faded, and the white bead celestial device flashed and fell into Zhou Bao's hand.
"Zhou Bao, how dare you!" At this time, the remaining two experts also jumped into the air and rushed to Zhou Bao.
Zhou Bao saw clearly that one of them was the middle-aged man who came to him that day.
"I was wondering who dared to make trouble for me. It turns out that you people from Kunlun Mountain again!" Facing the two experts, Zhou Bao did not care at all. He moved the Golden Flame Mirror, but when the golden light moved, the two experts had to avoid it. They had seen with their own eyes that once they were covered by the golden light, they would really die without a burial place.
"Humph, Kunlun Mountain, how dare you collude with rebels and sinners to attack an official of the imperial court! Now that I've found you, you'd better kneel down and admit your guilt. Otherwise, even if you can escape today, when I report to the imperial court, I'll definitely lead an army to attack Kunlun Mountain and destroy your Kunlun Mountain lineage!" Zhou Bao raised the Golden Flame Mirror and shouted in high spirits.
Being chased by the golden light of the Golden Flame Mirror, the two experts of Kunlun Mountain were in a hopeless situation. Hearing Zhou Bao's words, they became even more furious. The middle-aged man shouted fiercely, "Zhou Bao, you're despicable and shameless! You killed an Elder of Kunlun Mountain with a sneak attack! Kunlun Mountain will never let you go!"
"Humph, do you think I'm afraid of your Kunlun Mountain?" As Zhou Bao's mind turned, the real golden light shot out by the Golden Flame Mirror converged and then burst out violently, turning into a rain of light all over the sky, shrouding the two experts who were dodging to the left and right.
"Oh no …!"
"Watch out …!"
Two cries of alarm rang out, and the astral energy on their bodies spread out at the same time. However, the power of this rain of light was very strong, as if it specialized in restraining astral energy. Although the two of them dodged extremely quickly, they were still inevitably hit by the light spots. They let out miserable screams and fell down.
Standing in the air, Zhou Bao reached out his hand and grabbed the Golden Flame Mirror behind his head. With a slight shake, the light rain all over the sky disappeared, and then a huge pressure shot out from the mirror.
This time, it was different from the golden light of the previous one. With the Golden Flame Mirror as the center, the golden light spread out in all directions and formed a huge light cover, covering the whole tribe, which had just been built a few days ago.
