The emissary from the Huarong Empire had come to invite him to the conference, while the emissary from the Langmu Empire had come to ask for cooperation. He didn't know what to do. His decision represented the attitude of the Ice Moon Empire, so he couldn't be careless. He had already discussed with the officials for three days, but he still hadn't come to a conclusion. It was almost time for the conference to begin. If he didn't leave now, he wouldn't be able to make it in time. As a result, he was very anxious and hadn't slept well for a few days.
"Your majesty, the Ice Goddess Priestess has arrived. The chief court magician Nian Bing has arrived." The Ice Goddess Priestess had a high status. No matter what, her name was always at the front, even when Yan Feng's name was mentioned.
Yan Feng suddenly stood up from the throne, his eyes filled with surprise. He wasn't surprised by the arrival of the Ice Goddess Priestess because he had sent someone to invite her from the Ice God Tower. The Four Nations Conference was so important that he had to ask for the Ice Goddess Priestess' opinion. Moreover, the most ideal emissary in his heart was the Ice Goddess Priestess. With the number one godly emissary in the continent, the Ice Moon Empire would naturally be able to obtain the most benefits. However, when he heard that Nian Bing had also come, he was immediately filled with excitement. Although Marshal Xue Po had contributed greatly to his ascension to the throne, in his heart, he trusted Nian Bing the most. Without Nian Bing's perfect strategy, he wouldn't have been able to succeed. He treated Nian Bing as a brother. Now that Nian Bing had arrived at such a crucial time, he had one more person to discuss with. How could he not be happy?
"Quickly invite her in. Oh, no, I will personally welcome her. " As he spoke, he lifted the hem of his dragon robe and walked down the stairs. The officials parted to the sides. Xue Po, who was also pleasantly surprised, followed behind Yan Feng.
The doors to the Ice God Hall opened. At this moment, the Ice Goddess Priestess and Nian Bing were standing at the entrance. The Ice Goddess Priestess had already taken off her bamboo hat, revealing her peerlessly beautiful appearance. Seeing that the first person to walk out of the door was actually the current king of the Ice Moon Empire, Yan Feng, the priestess of the Ice Goddess couldn't help but be shocked. The cold light in her eyes softened a little. He frowned and said, "Why did His Majesty come out personally?"
Yan Feng smiled and said, "It is the fortune of the Ice Moon Empire that the Ice Goddess Priestess arrived in time. How can I not come to welcome you personally? Lord Priest, please come in. "As he spoke, he stepped aside. He made a gesture of invitation.
Nian Bing praised him in her heart. Yan Feng looked more mature than before. It was not easy for him to do this with his current status. The priestess of the Ice Goddess was proud to begin with. Being praised like this would make her feel much better.
The priestess of the Snow Goddess wasn't lucky either. She entered with her two subordinates. Nian Bing followed behind them all the way into the hall. At this time, Yan Feng finally had the chance to look at Nianbing. The excitement in his eyes could not be concealed. Nianbing gave him a look, and then walked side by side with the priestess of the Ice Goddess.
Yan Feng ordered people to bring two chairs over. He placed them on both sides of his dragon throne and said, "Lord Priest of the Ice Goddess, please sit. Nian Bing, you also sit."
"Wait a moment." The priestess of the Ice Goddess's gaze turned cold again. Her gaze fell on Nian Bing, and she said coldly, "What right does he have to sit here?"
Yan Feng frowned and said, "Nian Bing is our country's chief court magician. She is a guest. Naturally, she can sit here."
The priestess of the Ice Goddess snorted and said, "I'm afraid that his identity is fake. If he can sit here with his strength, then my subordinates can also sit here. If you want to sit in this hall, you need to rely on your strength to speak. "
Nian Bing did not get angry. She smiled and said, "Oh? Then how do you think I can sit here, Lord Priest of the Ice Goddess? "
The priestess of the Ice Goddess said, "Strength is the basis for speaking."
Nian Bing found it funny and said, "Could it be that you want to fight in the hall?"
The priestess of the Ice Goddess said disdainfully, "You are not qualified to fight with me. If you can win against either of my subordinates, then you have the right to sit here. "
Nian Bing smiled faintly and said, "That's not a difficult task."
Yan Feng looked at Nian Bing and then at the priestess of the Ice Goddess. He said sincerely, "Both of you are the pillars of our country. You must not fight." What a joke. If Nian Bing and the other advanced magicians were to fight, just their destructive power alone would be enough to turn this place into ruins.
Nian Bing looked at Yan Feng and said, "Your majesty, I came from afar and am a bit tired. Naturally, I want to sit. Since the priestess of the Ice Goddess questions my identity, then I will prove it to her. Your majesty, please rest assured that I will not destroy anything here. Otherwise, I will voluntarily resign from my current position. "
Yan Feng was very anxious, "Nian Bing, do not be rude." After all, the priestess of the Ice Goddess had been accumulating power for a long time. He was afraid that Nian Bing would be taken advantage of.
Nian Bing looked at the priestess and said, "Priestess, let your subordinates prepare. I am going to start."
The priestess of the Ice Goddess was only provoking Nian Bing verbally. She did not expect that he would actually dare to fight here. She couldn't help but be stunned. At this moment, it happened. Red and blue light lit up at almost the same time. The entire hall was suddenly filled with a sharp aura. Two rays of light that were polar opposites of ice and heat instantly shot out from Nian Bing's body, drawing an arc in the air and circling around the priestesses of the Ice Goddess, arriving in front of the two ice archmages like lightning.
The two magicians reacted quickly and instantly cast ice shields to block the light. They were both magicians. They naturally thought that this sudden attack would not have any effect, so they did not put Nian Bing in their eyes. However, they were wrong. Nian Bing could no longer be compared to a normal magician.
The red and blue lights instantly enlarged. Two tall and slender figures appeared in the air. The dark red Righteous Yang Saber flickered with blue true fire, breaking the ice shield in almost an instant. On the other side, the blue Morning Dew Saber broke through the ice shield. They easily turned the other archmage's ice shield into ice powder and locked onto them in an instant. The two archmages' hands had just touched the magic scrolls they were carrying when they were sealed by the ice and fire puppets. It wasn't that they couldn't move, but as archmages, they knew very well that they couldn't move. As long as they moved slightly, the magic locked onto them would instantly explode and tear them to pieces. Feeling the heat of the Righteous Yang Saber and the coldness of the Morning Dew Saber, the two ice magicians' expressions changed.
The sudden change caused a commotion in the Ice Goddess Hall. No one saw clearly what had just happened. The two subordinates of the priestess of the Ice Goddess had already been restrained.
The priestess of the Ice Goddess felt her heart turn cold. She was very close to Nian Bing. She also felt it the most. Even she didn't have the confidence to completely block that sharp energy. Only by running away could she avoid that instantaneous attack. Nian Bing still stood there with a smile on her face, as if she hadn't done anything. However, the lives of the two magicians were already in her hands. The priestess of the Ice Goddess couldn't help but reevaluate the strength of the young man in front of her.
The light receded. The two puppets took the two blades and merged into Nian Bing's body, disappearing. "I think, now I have the right to sit here. Priestess, I just want to tell you that I didn't get this position by relying on connections. "As she said that, Nian Bing sat in her seat grandly, no longer looking at the priestess of the Ice Goddess.
The priestess of the Ice Goddess didn't change. She also sat down. The two subordinates behind her wanted to attack, but she raised her hand to stop them. Seeing this, Yan Feng hurriedly said, "The two of you are my guests. There's no need to argue over such a small matter. Alright, let's continue to discuss business. Priestess, the Four Nations Conference is about to begin. I've already made it clear in my letter to you. What do you think our country should do? The Huarong Empire is too powerful. If we don't adapt well, it will be very detrimental to our country's future development. "
The priestess of the Ice Goddess said indifferently, "I don't understand politics. Your Majesty doesn't need to ask me."
Yan Feng hit a nail, but he didn't express any dissatisfaction. He continued, "Currently, our country is outside the war zone. For the time being, we don't have to worry about war. However, the Langmu Empire borders our country. Because our country is located in the north, the climate is cold. Most of our food comes from the Langmu Empire. Now that they've sent people to ask for an alliance, if we don't agree, I'm afraid it won't be appropriate. However, if we join forces with the Huarong Empire, it will be a long journey. Moreover, the Huarong Empire is too powerful and doesn't border our country. No matter if we win or lose, the benefits to us will be very small. That's why I'm in a dilemma with the other ministers. I want to hear your opinion. "
The priestess of the Ice Goddess glanced at Yan Feng. She saw that Yan Feng's eyes were full of sincerity. She said slowly, "There's nothing wrong with forming an alliance. The Langmu Empire is the granary of the Ice Moon Empire. As for sending troops, I don't think it's necessary. The Huarong Empire isn't that easy to deal with. Of course, we have to go to the Four Nations Conference. Your Majesty, you can decide the specific situation yourself. If there's a need for the Ice God Tower, I will naturally help you. "
The last four words' help 'made Yan Feng furious. Her face stiffened. She thought to herself, The Ice Moon Empire has given Ice God Tower a lot of support in the past. The Ice God Tower has also been helping the Ice Moon Empire. Now that there's a problem, you want to help me? But now was the time to use her, so she couldn't lose her temper. Thinking of this, Yan Feng said, "Priestess, to participate in the Four Nations Conference, we need a prestigious and powerful emissary to represent us. After thinking about it, I think it's better for the priestess to go personally. What do you think … "
The priestess of the Ice Goddess raised her hand to stop Yan Feng from continuing. She shook her head and said, "No, I won't go to the Huarong Empire. Maybe Your Majesty doesn't know, but our Ice God Tower and the Huarong Empire have always been enemies. If I go, not only will I not be of help to the Empire, it might even be counterproductive. What's more, the Ice Moon Empire's Magician Union is developing rapidly. It's better for them to send experts to assist Your Majesty's emissary. "
Yan Feng immediately understood. Although most of what the priestess of the Ice Goddess said was true, she wasn't afraid of the Rong Family. Part of the reason why she didn't want to contribute to the Empire was that the rise of the Magician Union would affect the status of the Ice God Tower. It seemed that it was time for him to declare his position. Although the Magician Union had been developing rapidly in the past two years, it wasn't that far behind the Ice God Tower. There were still many places that relied on the Ice God Tower. After weighing the pros and cons, Yan Feng was about to speak when Nian Bing, who was sitting on the other side of him, spoke.
"Your Majesty, I agree with the Ice Goddess Priestess. It's indeed inappropriate for the Ice God Tower to appear in the Huarong Empire to participate in the Four Nations Conference. Since the Ice Goddess Priestess has also agreed to let the Magician Union assist the emissary to participate in this conference, as the vice president of the Magician Union, I request Your Majesty's permission. "
Yan Feng looked at Nianbing in surprise. Nian Bing nodded firmly at him. If Yan Feng was still hesitant before, he had already made up his mind when he saw Nian Bing's eyes. Nian Bing was the person he trusted the most. Without Nian Bing, he wouldn't have the throne. What else was there to doubt? "Alright, since the Ice Goddess Priestess and Nian Bing both agree, then this matter is settled. However, the emissary selection is very important. Which one of you is willing to go? "
The audience was silent. This responsibility was too heavy. No one knew the current situation of the Huarong Empire. No one knew what changes would happen. Each of the ministers was more cunning than the other. Who would be willing to take on such a strenuous and unrewarding task?
Looking at the silence of the ministers, Yan Feng couldn't help but be slightly angry. "What, no one is willing to share the burden for me?"
"Your Majesty, let me go." Nian Bing stood up from her seat.
"You?" Yan Feng looked at Nian Bing with some doubt. It wasn't that he didn't believe in Nian Bing's ability. Back then, Nian Bing had helped him plan a plan to ascend the throne. If it wasn't for Nian Bing's insistence, Yan Feng would definitely let her sit on the throne. However, the danger of this four nation conference was too high. He really didn't want Nian Bing to take the risk.
Nian Bing said, "I am willing to share the burden for Your Majesty."
"No." The Ice Goddess Priestess's cold voice sounded. "Magician Nian Bing definitely cannot take on this task. Not to mention whether or not she has the ability in politics, her identity alone cannot represent the Huarong Empire as an emissary. "
Yan Feng was stunned. "Identity? What identity does Nian Bing have? " He was actually asking the obvious. Back then, Nian Bing had already told him that she was from the Rong Family. Of course, Nian Bing only told him that she was from the Rong Family. At the same time, she also told him that she had already left the Rong Family because of her father.
The Ice Goddess Priestess said indifferently, "Her name should be Nian Bing Rong."
As soon as she said that, the ministers below the stage were in an uproar. Many people looked at Nianbing in a different light.
Nian Bing smiled and didn't panic at all. "That's right, I am indeed from the Rong Family. Prince Rong is my grandfather. However, I don't use the surname Rong anymore. Ever since my father betrayed the Rong Family and was killed by you, the Ice Goddess Priestess, I have been an orphan. I grew up in the Ice Moon Empire. I only know how to be loyal to my homeland. "
Below the stage, Snow Soul walked out and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, I believe that magician Nian Bing is capable of taking on this responsibility. I believe in his character. I have also heard of Nian Bing's identity as a magician. He has indeed left the Rong Family long ago. "As he said that, he raised his hand and touched the silver embroidery on his collar.
As soon as Snow Soul finished speaking, dozens of ministers stood out and said respectfully at the same time, "We also believe that magician Nian Bing is capable of taking on this responsibility." Their voices were so synchronized that even Yan Feng was startled. He didn't know that these ministers who occupied important positions were all members of the Blood Lion Cult. What Snow Soul did just now was the Blood Lion Cult's secret signal. Most of these Blood Lion Cult members didn't know Nian Bing's identity, but when the secret signal appeared, they immediately agreed with Snow Soul's suggestion.
Those who could stand out and speak were all important people in the Ice Moon Empire. Those ministers who felt that something was wrong couldn't speak rashly anymore. On the stage, the priestess of the Snow Goddess showed surprise for the first time. She glanced at the calm Nian Bing and said coldly, "Your Majesty, since so many people support Nian Bing, you can send him as the emissary. However, our Ice God Tower has been blessed by the Empire for many years. Now that the Empire is in trouble, we can't just ignore it. I will go with magician Nian Bing. "
Hearing the priestess's words, Marshal Snow Soul's expression changed. He raised his head and looked at Nianbing. Nian Bing was still smiling. She said, "That's good! If you can change your mind and agree to go with me, I will definitely teach Nian Bing a lot. With your deterrence, I think our country will be able to get the best benefits. "
The priestess of the Snow Goddess had no choice but to change her mind. Although she didn't care about worldly possessions, the Ice God Tower was built by her. The Ice God Tower had never been involved in any business, and because it needed the magic stones of a master, the cost was shocking. The north was the most suitable place for ice mages to practice, without the support of the royal family. Without the support of the royal family, it would have a great impact on the Ice God Tower. To get the support of the royal family, one must have enough status. Now that the Magician's Union was rising, the priestess of the Snow Goddess had come in person. She had already thought of doing something for the Ice Moon Empire to prove that she was the guardian of the Ice Moon Empire. She didn't expect that Nian Bing would agree to be the emissary, which put her at a disadvantage. She had no choice but to ask to go with them.
Although Yan Feng felt that it was a little inappropriate, Nian Bing and the priestess of the Snow Goddess had already made up their minds. He couldn't change it. At that moment, he appointed Nian Bing as the emissary. The priestess of the Snow Goddess would go with him, and the two of them would choose their own entourage. They would leave tomorrow. After that, they discussed some more details in the palace before announcing the end of the court session.
After the court session ended, Yan Feng directly brought Nian Bing and Marshal Snow Soul back to his own palace. After the servants left, Yan Feng grabbed Nian Bing's shoulder. "Brat, where have you been all these days? Why couldn't I find you? I was so worried."
Nian Bing smiled when he saw the sincerity in Yan Feng's eyes. He said, "Am I not back to help you now?"
Yan Feng lightly punched Nian Bing's shoulder and said, "Brat, you're too impulsive. Why are you fighting with that old woman? Just let her go. Why do you have to get involved in this mess? "
Nian Bing smiled and said, "No matter what, I'm still your chief court mage. I have to do something for you. Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."
Snow Soul said, "But this time, the priestess of the Snow Goddess is going with you. She's also your enemy. I'm afraid …"
Nian Bing shook his head and said, "I know what's more important. I'm now the envoy representing the Empire. She won't do anything to me. When it's time to settle the score, I'll settle it with her. "
Yan Feng said, "Nian Bing, what do you think we should do now?"
Nian Bing said, "We must form an alliance with the Ottoman Empire and the Langmu Empire. This is necessary. But we don't need to use force against the Huarong Empire. As long as we control this well, it will be beneficial to our country. Your Majesty, what you need to do now is to develop our country. Only by becoming stronger can we better control our fate. "
Yan Feng nodded and smiled, "You're suitable to be the envoy. You're one of the people I trust!"
A strange look flashed across Snow Soul's eyes. Nian Bing pretended not to see it and continued, "Alright, since Your Majesty trusts me, let me handle this matter. I'm confident. "
Yan Feng smiled, "Of course I trust you. You won't harm me. You've already proven this when you helped me ascend the throne. Alright, since you're finally back, you must stay for lunch. This trip to Huarong Empire is dangerous. I'll send some experts to go with you. "
Nian Bing shook his head and said, "That won't be necessary. With me and the priestess of the Snow Goddess, who dares to offend us? Although I hate her, I have to admit that there aren't many people in the Yangon Continent who can defeat her. As for the meal, I want to try the dishes of the palace's chefs. "
Yan Feng laughed and said, "I want to try your dishes. But you're finally back. You must be tired. Let's just eat something today." In front of Nian Bing, he didn't put on the airs of an Emperor.
Nian Bing stayed in the palace until the afternoon before leaving with Snow Soul.
"Hierarch, how can you be the envoy?" Snow Soul whispered to Nianbing as they walked.
Nian Bing smiled faintly and said, "Why? Why can't I be the envoy? Our goal is to help the Rong Family, not the Huarong Empire. Elder Snow, don't forget this. "
Snow Soul trembled, "Hierarch, what do you mean?"
Nian Bing said, "From now on, you'll be one of the elders of our sect. There are some things I don't need to hide from you. First of all, the Rong Family is at the peak of its power in the Huarong Empire because of the annexation of the Kilu Empire. However, if the Huarong Empire really annexes the four empires and unifies the entire continent, it won't benefit the Rong Family at all. I have a different view from grandfather on this point. Grandfather's wish is to unify the continent. However, once the continent is unified, I'm afraid the Rong Family will walk towards destruction. "
Snow Soul's eyes flashed as she said, "Hierarch, you mean to cook the hound after the cunning rabbit is dead?"
Nian Bing said coldly, "When the birds are gone, the bow is put away. When the cunning rabbit is dead, the hound is cooked. This has always been an unquestionable principle. The Rong Family's achievements shake the ruler. Once the Huarong Empire changes rulers, the Rong Family will be destroyed in less than three generations. The Rong Family will be destroyed. However, the Rong Family has many experts. If the Rong Family is not unified, the Huarong Empire will definitely try to win over the Rong Family in order to use the Rong Family's power. The Rong Family's status will be very difficult to change. Not to mention. For our Blood Lion Sect, do you think it's better to unify the continent or secretly control the other empires? After the continent is unified, although the underground forces can still survive, as long as the ruler of the Huarong Empire is not a fool, they will definitely find a way to control the underground forces. Although our Blood Lion Sect is mysterious. I believe that the Huarong Empire already has some records on us. Therefore, the direction we should develop in the future is not to help the Huarong Empire unify the continent, but to control the Ottoman Empire and the Langmu Empire after the Ice Moon Empire. That is the right thing to do. Only when our people are completely innocent can we have better development in the future. "
Snow Soul listened to Nian Bing's explanation. Snow Soul nodded repeatedly, "Hierarch, you have great foresight. After your analysis, this subordinate immediately understands a lot."
Nian Bing sighed softly, and said, "Actually, I am not very suitable to be the hierarch, because I am too emotional. This is my biggest flaw. However, if a person has no emotions, then he is not fit to be called a person. Elder Snow, to be honest, Yan Feng has always treated me as his best brother. I have always felt guilty towards him for using him to control the Ice Moon Empire. Therefore, I want to help him. Moreover, your daughter is his wife. Whether it is for Yan Feng or for her, we cannot let the Ice Moon Empire perish. Therefore, I came to the imperial court today to be the emissary of the Ice Moon Empire. I want to help Yan Feng in a hurry, I hope you can understand my painstaking efforts. Although our people are scattered all over the continent, most of them have already taken root. If there is a huge change, it will involve too many people. Don't tell me you want our high-ranking subordinates in the Central Plains to give up everything they have? If we want to develop better, we must consider the future of our subordinates. Only then can our cult live in the darkness forever, and control everything in the continent. "
Snow Soul took a deep look at Nian Bing and said, "Sect Master. I … "
Nian Bing smiled faintly and said, "That's what I think. Since I've become the leader, I have to think for my brothers in the cult. It's time for the Blood Lion Cult to change its policy. When we reach the Hua Rong Empire, I will naturally have a good talk with the seven elders. Although we exist for the Rong family, if we want to help the Rong family better, we must change. "
Snow Soul nodded respectfully and said, "I understand. Now, I truly believe that the Demonic Lion Cult Leader has good foresight. You are indeed more suitable to be the hierarch! "
Nian Bing parted ways with Snow Soul on the way, and returned to the Warrior's Union alone.
"What?" Lan Chen stared at Nian Bing with wide eyes. "You said that Master wants to travel with us. This, how can this be?" After listening to Nian Bing's explanation, Lan Chen's heart was in a mess. She really did not want to face her Master!
Nian Bing smiled, "This is nothing, I have already thought about it for you. You don't necessarily have to face your Master! You people from the Ice God Tower take carriages when you go out, so we will also take carriages. Now that you have the Heaven's Eye acupoint, it should be no problem for you to hide your aura. Your Master will not be able to detect it. Moreover, did you not see Big Brother Halogen's appearance? I have a way to change his appearance, so naturally, I can do the same for you. Do you want to give it a try? "
"But …" Lan Chen was still somewhat hesitant.
Nian Bing smiled, "Don't worry, Chenchen, I know what to do. This time, I have many things to do in the Huarong Empire. If I remember correctly, the Phoenix Clan's ceremony is about to begin. After I'm done with the Four Nations Conference, I'll go with you to the Phoenix Clan. Although Mother has already left the Feng people, I understand her heart. "
Feng Nu's beautiful eyes flickered with light, and she took the initiative to hold Nian Bing's hand, "You are still the most thoughtful. Chenchen, don't worry. Even if your Master travels with us, she won't be able to do anything. With our combined strength, she won't be able to do anything to you. "
Lan Chen lowered his head and said, "Master raised me since I was young. Although she is also strict with me, she is really good to me. For Nian Bing, I left the Ice God Tower, but I really don't want to go against Master. I don't even know how to face her. "
Nian Bing hugged Lan Chen and said, "This is also something that can't be helped. I also didn't expect that she would take the initiative to go with us to the Huarong Empire. Don't worry, what the eye doesn't see, the heart doesn't grieve over. If you really can't do it, just wait here for us to come back. "
Lan Chen shook his head and said, "No, I've already waited for you for a year and a half. Don't tell me you still want me to wait? We'll do as you say. However, you have to help me change my appearance so that I look prettier. I don't want to be ugly. "
Nian Bing laughed and said, "My Chenchen is so pretty, why would I change your appearance to be ugly? You are of the ice attribute, so use my Sigh of the Ice Goddess. It suits you best. With its aura temporarily fusing with you, it will also be very beneficial for your strength to increase. "
Lan Chen said, "Do you really have to use your blade? That's your best weapon. If you give it to me, what will you use? If Master makes a move on you, I'm afraid you won't be able to resist! "
Nian Bing smiled and said, "Relax, it's fine. I can take back my blade at any time. Moreover, with Big Brother Halogen here, your Master won't have the chance to hurt me. As an envoy, she will at most make a move to test me, but won't really kill me. Moreover, I'm not necessarily afraid of her. "
