Compared to the last time they met.
Marquis Qianshan spoke to Qin Shujian as a superior.
This time.
He obviously placed him on the same level.
Qin Shujian remained calm and waited for Marquis Beiyun to continue.
"Sect Master Qin might not be clear about the situation in Thousand Mountains Prefecture. I'll explain it to you in case you're caught off guard!"
Marquis Beiyun said slowly.
"Now there are two forces in Thousand Mountains Prefecture. One is the imperial court led by Yan Caizhe, and the other is the rebel forces led by Gu Changqing. They are also the original forces of Thousand Mountains Prefecture."
"However, according to my speculation, there should be other forces behind Gu Changqing to support him in his resistance against the imperial court."
"And this force —"
"It's most likely a demon!"
"Demon!?"
Qin Shujian, who had been sitting still, was stunned when he heard Marquis Beiyun's words.
The word demon.
It was both strange and familiar to him.
Strictly speaking, the demon beasts in the Endless Mountain Range were not complete demons.
However, there was a difference between demons and ordinary beasts.
Those with spiritual intelligence were demons.
Those without spiritual intelligence were beasts.
Therefore, the demon beasts in the Endless Mountain Range generally did not have high spiritual intelligence, so they were between demons and beasts.
However, Niu Dali in the demon vein.
Instead, he was a pure demon.
However.
What surprised Qin Shujian was that Marquis Qianshan, Gu Changqing, actually had the support of demons.
Although Marquis Beiyun was not 100% sure.
He was very clear.
With Marquis Beiyun's identity, his words were basically true.
Even if it was a so-called high probability.
In fact, it was already a 100% certainty.
"That's right, it's the demons!" Marquis Beiyun nodded and said, "All these years, the demons have been trying to regain their past glory and walk out of the Endless Mountain Range to occupy hundreds of millions of miles of territory."
"However, the Human Emperor suppressed all directions, so the demons did not dare to act rashly. Now that the Human Emperor's lifespan is approaching, the demons have revived and are active in the Great Zhao Dynasty."
"In order to eliminate Gu Changqing, other than dealing with the two Array Masters, you also need to prevent the Demon Clan from assassinating you."
"Speaking of which, any formation master is at least an expert of the God Martial Realm or even the Heaven Realm. For an existence like you who is only at the Prominent Divine Realm, you are already a formation master.
There is a high chance that he will become a target of the demons. "
These things.
Marquis Beiyun did not hide his plan from Qin Shujian.
When the other party really went to Thousand Mountains Prefecture, someone would probably tell him. At that time, there might be some misunderstanding between the two of them, so there was no need for this.
Furthermore …
It wasn't easy for Beiyun Manor to produce an Array Master.
He also did not wish for the other party to die in the hands of the Demon Clan.
For the North Cloud Manor.
It was also a great loss.
Speaking of which.
Marquis Beiyun looked at Qin Shujian and said solemnly, "Therefore, the trip to Thousand Mountains Prefecture isn't 100% safe. If Sovereign Qin isn't willing to take this risk, it's not too late to back out now.
At that time, I will explain to the imperial court. "
"Marquis, you can rest assured that I will never go back on my word. How can a dignified human be afraid of the Demon Clan!" Qin Shujian replied righteously.
Back out!
No way!
Putting aside whether Sovereign Qin was afraid of the Demon Clan, there was no chance of returning the three superior-grade innate spiritual artifacts that he had received in advance.
These three spiritual artifacts.
In terms of value, it would cost at least hundreds of millions of taels of silver.
If he took out such a large sum of money, he would probably empty the entire Yuan Sect. Not to mention that he was willing to use silver to replace it. It was still a problem whether the imperial court would agree or not.
At this moment.
Qin Shujian could not blame Marquis Beiyun for speaking too slowly. He could only blame himself for swallowing too quickly.
After all, the other party did not expect this.
He would swallow the spiritual artifacts.
Since there was no way to return the items, it was impossible for him not to go.
Moreover, he had a fourth-grade golden lotus, the Dustless Immortal Robe, the Thousand Mountain Blood, the Qiankun Bow, the Cloud Piercing Arrow, and other Dao artifacts. Coupled with his strength as an Array Grandmaster, Qin Shujian felt that his equipment was quite luxurious.
Even if a Heavenly Being expert personally took action.
He was also confident that he could protect himself.
Regarding this.
Marquis Beiyun looked at Qin Shujian with a hint of appreciation in his eyes. He smiled and said, "But Sovereign Qin, you can rest assured. Although there are Demon Clan forces in Thousand Mountains Prefecture, they may not assassinate you.
Besides, it's not like the imperial court doesn't have any backup plans. This Marquis is just reminding you to avoid any accidents. "
"When will we set off?"
"You can rest in the Marquis' mansion tonight. After tomorrow, I will send someone to go to Thousand Mountains Prefecture with you."
Hearing this.
Qin Shujian did not refuse.
Then Marquis Beiyun summoned his servants and took Qin Shujian to rest.
No one in the Marquis' mansion dared to disobey the orders of Marquis Beiyun.
The next day.
In the Marquis' mansion. When Qin Shujian got up from his bedroom, someone quickly brought him hot water to wash up and then brought him food.
It had to be said.
The facilities in the Marquis's Mansion were much better than the place where he, the Sect Master, lived in.
Of course.
This did not include the Spirit Qi of Heaven and Earth.
Qin Shujian's original courtyard was engraved with a Spirit Gathering Array. The concentration of Spirit Qi was comparable to that of some sects' cultivation mystic realms. It was not comparable to other places.
However —
Walking in the Marquis' mansion, he also found a problem.
That was in the Marquis' mansion.
In fact, there was also a large-scale Array.
Qin Shujian could only detect the traces of the Array with his senses as an Array Master. Otherwise, if it were an ordinary Array Master, even an Array Master might not be able to detect it.
From this point of view.
He was basically sure.
The person who laid down this array was definitely an array formation grandmaster without a doubt.
After Qin Shujian finished his breakfast, an attendant came to inform him and asked him to go to the main hall.
Seeing this.
Qin Shujian also went with him.
After turning left and right behind the attendant, the main hall that he had been to yesterday appeared in front of him.
In the main hall.
In addition to Marquis Beiyun, there were two other people sitting there.
One was Xiao Hong.
The other was Su Mingyang.
After the attendant led Qin Shujian into the main hall, he immediately bowed and said, "Marquis, the distinguished guest is here!"
"You may leave."
"Yes!"
After the attendant left, Qin Shujian cupped his hands and said, "Marquis!"
"Sect Master Qin, please take a seat!"
"Thank you."
Qin Shujian thanked him. After walking to one side and sitting down, he also cupped his hands slightly to Xiao Hong and Su Mingyang and nodded his head to greet them.
The two also cupped their hands in response.
Marquis Beiyun said, "I wonder if Sect Master Qin is used to living in the Marquis' mansion."
"Of course. This place is much better than the Yuan Sect."
"Haha, if there is a chance in the future, Sect Master Qin can come at any time. I welcome you."
"Of course!"
While Marquis Beiyun and Qin Shujian were chatting, Su Mingyang and Xiao Hong were silent and did not interrupt.
Marquis Beiyun was gentle and elegant.
In fact, the rules in the Marquis' mansion were very strict.
The other party had exchanged pleasantries with Qin Shujian because he saw Qin Shujian as an equal.
If it was someone else …
He was not qualified.
Then, Marquis Beiyun said seriously, "When Sect Master Qin goes to the Thousand Mountains Mansion, I will let Su Mingyang follow him. I believe you should be familiar with him."
"Of course."
"During the trip to the Thousand Mountains Mansion, Su Mingyang will be Sect Master Qin's personal guard in order to deal with the possible assassination of the Demon Clan." At this point, Marquis Beiyun's gaze fell on Su Mingyang. "Su Mingyang!"
"I'm here!"
"During the trip to the Thousand Mountains Mansion, you must ensure Sect Master Qin's safety. If there is any damage, you can bring your head to me!"
"Yes, Marquis Beiyun!" Su Mingyang accepted the order respectfully.
As for Qin Shujian …
It was not appropriate for him to say anything at this moment.
Not long after …
Qin Shujian and Su Mingyang left the Marquis' mansion together and headed in the direction of the Teleportation Gate in Zong Yang City.
The Beiyun Mansion was far away from the Thousand Mountains Mansion.
If they did not rely on the Teleportation Gate, they might not be able to reach the place in one or two months.
As for the Teleportation Gate …
Zong Yang City was also divided into two places.
One was the inner city, which only the people of the imperial court could use.
The other was not in the inner city. As long as they paid a certain fee, they could use it for others.
This time …
The two of them did not go to the Teleportation Gate in the inner city.
There was not much difference between the two Teleportation Gates. The only difference was that the Teleportation Gate in the inner city was larger and could transport people on a large scale. It was also for the sake of mobilizing troops in time when a war broke out.
As for the other Teleportation Gate …
Each Teleportation Gate had a certain number of people.
The two of them walked on the street. Compared to the restraint in front of Marquis Beiyun, Su Mingyang was much more relaxed now. He smiled and said, "I have the opportunity to fight side by side with Sect Master Qin. When I go back, I can boast about it to others!"
"Haha, Master Su, you're too serious." Qin Shujian smiled and said, "I'm a little embarrassed that Master Su has condescended to be my guard."
"I'm sure many people would be willing to be the attendant of an Array Grand Master."
At this point, Su Mingyang's face suddenly turned solemn and he continued, "However, Sect Master Qin, you must be careful. If the Demon Clan takes action, it will not be a simple assassination.
It doesn't matter if I die, but the Beiyun Mansion can't afford to lose an Array Grand Master. "
"Master Su, don't worry. I have a plan in mind."
"That's good."
The two of them walked on the street. Although they were talking normally, the people around them could not hear anything at all.
This was another function of Divine Thought.
It could be turned into a layer of shield, isolating the sound inside and outside the shield.
Zong Yang City was not small.
The Teleportation Gate in the city was located a certain distance away from the Marquis' mansion.
However, the two of them were not weak. Even if they were walking normally, their strength was not ordinary.
It did not take long for them to arrive at the Teleportation Gate.
After the token of the Marquis of Beiyun's Mansion appeared, the general guarding the teleportation gate immediately opened it after collecting a fee.
