The girl's distant and light voice reverberated in the hall. However, when it reached the edge of the hall, it was blocked by an invisible force, not even the slightest bit leaked out.
It was a quiet but strict prison rampart.
However, in this prison, there was another voice that sounded.
"Yes, it's driving the tiger to swallow the wolf. A certain lead disciple who is good at imitating has massacred the border sentry with the golden clad celestial general's Ten Thousand Swords Secret Art, and then ran to the peripheral city of Golden City to summon the heavenly fire. It's ridiculous that such a simple trick has a perfect effect. The group of barbarians from Flaming Valley has officially shed all pretense of cordiality and declared war on Golden City. The vanguard army is assembling, and the sandpiper and clam's fight seems to be imminent. "
With that, a looming blue figure slowly condensed in the hall. A moment later, a very sturdy man appeared beside the girl, with a face full of ridicule and resentment.
The girl was actually indifferent. "What did the city master say?"
"What else can he say? Golden City is used to being overbearing in this world, when has it ever suffered grievance? It's already fortunate that it doesn't take the initiative to provoke others. Now that Flaming Valley has come to its door, how could it avoid the fight? The city master has already gathered his troops and horses, ready to fight to the death with Flaming Valley. Tsk, this is exactly what other people want! And if it's exactly what they want, then fine, but at this time, this group of mediocre fools still want to fight among themselves, putting a great expert like you under house arrest in the Hall of Coolness! "
The more the sturdy man said, the angrier he became. Unable to restrain himself, he punched the pillar of the hall. The pillar buzzed, which drove the entire hall to tremble.
"Calm down." The girl lightly said. And as she spoke, the shaking of the hall also stopped.
The sturdy man shook his head and angrily said, "Senior Sister Qiong Hua, you're really … Alas, you really have good self-restraint. You're being bullied, yet you're still not impatient. If Golden City and Flaming Valley both suffer, I'm afraid the other three forces would laugh themselves to death! "
Qiong Hua said, "That's normal. If Golden City doesn't have any conflict with the other four forces, if Golden City can sincerely cooperate with us, then there would be no suspense in this five spirits power struggle. And a situation without suspense is meaningless to the immortal dream land itself. Although the immortal dream land did not demand fairness, there would not be a situation that was too unbalanced. The predicament we are facing is just like the huge advantage we have. Both are objective conditions that cannot be denied. "
"… Yes, Senior Sister's words are reasonable, but there must be a way to deal with it, right? Golden City has now completely lost its trust in us. Previously, according to Senior Sister's instructions, I spent a lot of effort to let Luanyu find a way to lead a gold-clad army, but in the end, we encountered an unreasonable king of Harmony River. After this defeat, the relationship between us and Golden City is really like a stranger. "
The burly man complained helplessly, but after listening to his complaints, Qiong Hua showed a faint smile.
"It would be best if we were strangers. Both our sides have the advantage in strength to suppress the entire battlefield. If there is no internal strife, even if we do our own thing and don't cooperate, our chances of winning should be more than 40%."
"Only 40%?"
"Among the top five, our Shengjing Sect alone has a 40% chance of winning, which is already blessed by heaven. If we are still not satisfied and hope to get the support of Golden City, we would spend our energy and mind on dealing with Golden City, and then we would be stuck in a quagmire, unable to extricate ourselves. Therefore, from now on, it is the ideal situation to be like strangers. If we can get rid of Golden City and fully display our strength, we will still have an excellent advantage. "
With that, Qiong Hua finally stood up, and as she stood up, the entire hall began to collapse. However, when the hall collapsed, there was a stronger force that suppressed it. Qiong Hua's body slightly swayed, and she had no choice but to sit down again.
The burly man tried to reach out to support her, but was stopped by a stern look from Qiong Hua.
"It seems like now is not the time for me to make my move … Then, Junior Brother Jianglu, please lead the Junior Brothers and Sisters to suppress the Eternal Tree."
"Yes."
"Also, the opponent is, after all, the lead disciple of one of the Five Uniques of the Wanxian League, so don't try to be brave."
Upon hearing this, Jianglu earnestly cupped his hands toward Qiong Hua and said, "Jianglu will not let Senior Sister down!"
Before his voice fell, he turned into a wisp of breeze and disappeared from the hall without a trace.
Qiong Hua somewhat helplessly looked at the distant Jianglu and softly said her unfinished words.
"Those who try to be brave will die."

At the same time, on the quiet Harmony River, Wang Lu walked along the riverbank with his hands behind his back.
This was the border checkpoint of Harmony River — although this river that runs through this world should not have the concept of border, in fact, if one wanted to get close to the lower reaches of Harmony River and the Eternal Tree, one must pass through some checkpoints. Otherwise, one would inevitably get lost in the boundless water.
The special characteristic of the Void Spirit Root allowed him to drive the tide of the water element spiritual energy to surge every time he breathed. It was just that, during the surge, it showed a tranquil and natural scene, which showed that Wang Lu's control over the spiritual energy and magical power had gradually reached a fine level, becoming more and more skillful and mellow.
He was very close to the King Pill Realm.
And just as Wang Lu gradually immersed his mind into the unique spiritual energy atmosphere of Harmony River and began to meditate, a voice behind him suddenly interrupted his contemplation.
"Hey, what are you doing?"
Turning around, he saw Zhou Mumu's smiling face behind him. The girl seemed to be in high spirits, and her white jade-like cheeks were stained with a touch of red. Obviously, she had just drunk some good wine at the dinner table.
Seeing that the person was Zhou Mumu, Wang Lu restrained his thoughts, used his primordial spirit to control the magical power in his body, spat out a mouthful of foul air, and then said with a smile, "Take a walk."
Zhou Mumu asked, "Take a walk?"
Wang Lu explained, "As the saying goes, walk a hundred steps after a meal …"
Zhou Mumu suddenly pursed her mouth and said with a funny smile, "Live to ninety-nine? You're about to become the Daoist Master of the King Pill Realm, so you should have at least two or three hundred years of lifespan. If you live to ninety-nine years old, wouldn't you die prematurely? This joke is really cold, it's not like you at all. "
After the joke, Zhou Mumu stopped smiling. "Don't worry?"
Wang Lu rhetorically asked, "You're not worried?"
Zhan Ziye's strategy of driving the tiger to swallow the wolf sounded flawless. In fact, under the general trend, the conflict between Golden City and Flaming Valley was inevitable — if these two didn't fight, how could the other three survive? What was the point of this five spirits power struggle?
However, on the other hand, regardless of how strong Golden City was, behind Golden City was the lead disciple of Shengjing Sect, Qiong Hua. Zhan Ziye could drive the tiger to swallow the wolf, but couldn't Qiong Hua pretend to be a pig to eat the tiger? Right now, it seemed like Qiong Hua's team was restrained by Golden City, but who knew how many cards she had? Who knew if she was just showing weakness to the enemy? In recent years, there was no direct conflict between the several lead disciples of the Five Uniques. However, apart from that, all the opponents of Qiong Hua had been defeated.
In the face of an invincible Qiong Hua, it was never too much to be cautious.
"The people of Ten Thousand Arts Sect have always been proficient in spells and neglected the secular people's hearts. Therefore, it's understandable that Junior Brother Ziye's mind is simple, but we don't have such good luck." Zhou Mumu smiled. "In fact, when Junior Brother Ziye said that his task was a success, I was already guessing when Shengjing Sect people would come."
Wang Lu was somewhat surprised. This Zhou Mumu actually thought ahead of him? Was it really true that even a fool's thousand thoughts could be right?
Zhou Mumu saw the doubt in Wang Lu's eyes and explained, "In this five spirits power struggle, the lead disciples of the five sects have entered the immortal dream land one after another. Among them, Shengjing Sect is the earliest, which has been nearly a month, followed by Royal Soldier Sect, which is only one or two days later than Shengjing Sect. Junior Brother Ziye and I entered here fifteen days ago. Junior Brother Wang, your time in this ring is the shortest. However, as soon as you joined, the five spirits power struggle officially began, which didn't give you any buffer time. Therefore, you have the least information, so you don't know anything. In this ring, although Shengjing Sect people are the most restrained, their oppression is actually the strongest. Before you came, we have already had a conflict with Shengjing Sect people. Although limited by the situation, we didn't make a big move, but Shengjing Sect people's aggressiveness is without a doubt. Even without Qiong Hua, they still refused to restrain themselves. Junior Brother Ziye has schemed against Golden City, so Shengjing Sect people will certainly not let this go. And judging from the overall strength of Shengjing Sect team, even if Qiong Hua herself doesn't make a move, we may not be able to contend against them. After all, they have too many people. Thirty-six Shengjing Sect inner court elites are no small matter. "
Wang Lu said, "So Senior Sister, you came to help me? Well, I appreciate your kindness, but I think it's better for you to go back. "
Zhou Mumu frowned. "Junior Brother, you … don't believe me?"
Wang Lu asked back, "Senior Sister, you don't believe me?"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Mumu was stunned. She somewhat curiously and earnestly looked at Wang Lu's clear eyes. A moment later, a cheerful smile once again climbed up her face.
"Very well, Senior Sister believes you. But, don't let Senior Sister down."
With that, accompanied by a burst of laughter, Zhou Mumu turned into a ray of light and flew away.
After sending off Zhou Mumu, Wang Lu turned around and once again looked at the misty Harmony River. In silence, a smile hung on his face.
"Come out, isn't it uncomfortable to soak in the water?"
As his voice fell, dozens of ripples appeared on the calm surface of the water. The murderous intent was awe-inspiring.

At the same time, in the capital city of Harmony River, in A Ye's house, the long banquet was still not over. The laughter in the dining room never stopped.
"What the hell, how many times has this been!? You, this girl, your strength is not good, your brain is not good, but your appetite is really against the heaven! "
A Ye's fussy voice penetrated the narrow courtyard and reached the street.
Zhou Mumu, who had just returned from the border checkpoint of Harmony River, could not help but sigh when she heard A Ye's intoxicated voice.
"What? You still want to eat!? What the hell, do you know that my family's storehouse has already been emptied by you? What you're eating now is basically the national treasury reserve of Harmony River! What, you're still hungry? It's none of my business! Incompetent people like you better all starve to death! What? Isn't this the way to treat a guest? What the hell, do you still have any face!? I only invited you home for the sake of your Earth Element Blood Spirit. Do you really think of yourself as a distinguished guest? Shaman, don't try to persuade me! This kind of waste is not worthy of my family's hospitality! I … Aiyo, don't be angry, I'm just saying, I'm not serious! Hahaha, Lan girl, eat as much as you want! Now that you've come to my house, how can you not eat until you're full! Even if you dig up the Eternal Tree and eat it, I won't object! "
Hearing this, Zhou Mumu simply didn't know whether to laugh or cry. It was just that, although it was funny, the girl's face did not show a smile.
She turned her eyes to the back and lightly said, "Come out, don't hide anymore. Let's hurry up, I still want to go back to eat. "
