Since it was a treasure hunt, it was only natural that the equipment would be Purple Gold rank and above.
The most precious ones were the three divine weapons of Japan — the Kusanagi no Magatama, and the Yata no Kagami. Among them, the Kusanagi no Kagami was a national weapon of Japan, and it was dropped when the Meiji Emperor committed seppuku.

…
After some discussion, the Kusanagi Sword was given to Crimson Romance; the Yasakani no Magatama was given to Feng Qiuhuang, who would use it to establish a new dynasty; and the Yata no Kagami Mirror was naturally given to Ouyang Shuo.
As compensation, [Snow Mourning Rose Mercenary Group] and [Fallen Leaves Alliance] would be given four more Purple Gold grade equipment. Ouyang Shuo and Feng Qiuhuang didn't want any equipment. Instead, they wanted a special item.
[Teleportation Talisman]: After use, it can create a teleportation array in the target city.
There were two teleportation talismans. Ouyang Shuo and Feng Qiuhuang each had one. Feng Qiuhuang was naturally going to use it in Hokkaido to establish a stable overseas stronghold.
Where was Ouyang Shuo?
Picking up the teleportation talisman, Zhang Xuan fell into deep thought.
After dividing up the spoils of war, the hundreds of thousands of adventurer players began teleporting away. Bloody Romance, Xie Siyun, and the others bid farewell to Ouyang Shuo, while Feng Qiuhuang made her way to Hokkaido.
The bustling city of Jianghu suddenly became deserted.
According to the plan, Ouyang Shuo was originally going to teleport to Korea and take charge of the post-war arrangements for Goryeo. However, the moment Ouyang Shuo received the Transfer Talisman, he suddenly changed his mind.
For the next few days, Ouyang Shuo stayed in Jianghu City. He didn't rush back even when something happened in Dali.
During this period of time, Bai Qi led his troops to successfully take down Zhen La, signifying that the Great Xia Dynasty had achieved all of its objectives in the Kingdom War. Not only did they clear away the hidden dangers, but they also used this opportunity to expand their territory.
Strangely, even so, Ouyang Shuo had no intention of returning to the capital.
…
Two days ago, in the royal city of Dali.
When he found out that Duan Zhengchun had sent an envoy to Great Xia and had the intention of abdicating his position, Duan Hong could no longer sit still. Wasn't his clan racking their brains for the ultimate control of Dali?
If Duan Zhengchun abdicated, what else was there to do?
Seeing that he couldn't stop Duan Zhengchun, Duan Hong could only take the risk and choose to launch a palace coup to control the royal city of Dali before the matter of abdication was settled.
The problem was that the Imperial Guards of Dali only listened to Duan Zhengchun, so it was really difficult for Duan Hong to launch a palace coup. Fortunately, Duan Hong had been in the palace for several years and had made some achievements. Many of the eunuchs and palace maids in the palace had long been bribed by Duan Hong, so he was well-informed.
To launch a palace coup, Duan Hong could only rely on the power of the players.
However, the last time the [Xiao Alliance] attempted to intervene in the war between Great Xia and the [Yan Huang Alliance], they suffered a crushing defeat. Ouyang Shuo expelled the Xiao Clan and took control of the [Fallen Leaves Alliance], causing Duan Hong to lose a powerful ally in Dali.
Fortunately, there was still the Bloodshed.
Speaking of this assassin organization, Ouyang Shuo had a period of interaction. During the second auction, the Bloodshed was hired by Lord Chunshen to assassinate Ouyang Shuo in the commercial street of the capital, but they failed.
Since then, Ouyang Shuo tried to find the nest of the Bloodshed with the help of the Rattlesnake Mercenary Group and destroy it. However, the Bloodshed was very tactful and took the initiative to express goodwill, so Ouyang Shuo gave up.
The Rattlesnake Mercenary Group was absorbed by Ouyang Shuo, and the current Black Snake Guards were formed.
After three years, the reputation of the Bloodshed in the game became more and more resounding, and they had carried out several major cases.
… …
The night of the 24th of June, which was the night before Ouyang Shuo presided over the Treasure Distribution Conference.
Hired by Duan Hong with a large sum of money, and under Duan Hong's guidance, ten top assassins of the Bloodshed disguised themselves as palace eunuchs and quietly snuck into the Dali Imperial Palace to assassinate Duan Zhengchun.
It had to be said that the Bloodshed was really daring. They even dared to assassinate the Emperor. Because it was unexpected and Duan Zhengchun was completely unprepared, the Bloodshed really succeeded.
That night, the Emperor of Dali, Duan Zhengchun, was killed in his bedroom.
As soon as the news came out, the entire Dali Kingdom was immersed in grief. The Emperor, Duan Zhengchun, was very popular. Although the state affairs were difficult, he had never treated the people harshly. No one expected that he would die a violent death.
The imperial court of Dali was also in chaos.
According to the rules, after Duan Zhengchun's death, the crown prince, Duan Yu, should inherit the throne. However, at this time, Duan Hong stood out to compete with Duan Yu for the throne, and he even accused Duan Yu of being the murderer of the Emperor.
Many of the ministers in the imperial court had long been roped in by Duan Hong's family. At this time, they also stood out to speak for Duan Hong, saying that Duan Hong had both ability and integrity, and was more suitable to inherit the throne. Naturally, there were also ministers who supported Duan Yu, especially the group of old ministers who followed Duan Zhengchun to the wilderness. They followed Duan Yu's lead.
"Who is Duan Hong? He's a strange person of unknown origin. What qualifications does he have to inherit the throne?" The two sides argued endlessly, and they almost fought in the imperial court.
Seeing this, the Imperial Army of Dali could only remain neutral. The entire Dali City was instantly in chaos. Without the help of the Imperial Army, Duan Yu found it difficult to survive the most difficult night.
The next morning, the elite group of the Fallen Leaves Alliance returned to Dali after obtaining the treasures.
Luo Wuchen, the leader of the Fallen Leaves Alliance, received the news. Although he did not know the twists and turns, he immediately realized that this was an opportunity to help Great Xia conquer Dali.
Ouyang Shuo's dissatisfaction with Duan Hong was already known to everyone.
If Duan Hong was allowed to ascend the throne, the consequences would be unimaginable. Luo Wuchen was very decisive. He immediately contacted Duan Yu and expressed his willingness to help Duan Yu stabilize the situation in Royal City and help him smoothly ascend the throne.
Duan Yu naturally hit it off when he was trusted.
With the support of the Fallen Leaves Alliance, Duan Yu governed the country as the crown prince. He did not mention the matter of ascending the throne, but only said to the ministers in the imperial court, "Father's corpse is not cold yet, and I dare not covet the throne. As the governor, I will thoroughly investigate the assassination of Father and bring justice to the world. Before this matter is investigated clearly, no one is allowed to mention the matter of ascending the throne again. "
Duan Yu's move immediately disrupted Duan Hong's rhythm. The reason given by Duan Yu was upright, and Duan Hong could not refute it at all. Otherwise, it would be unfilial.
It was customary for the crown prince to govern the country, and even the ministers who supported Duan Hong could not refute it.
Even better, Duan Hong had previously accused Duan Yu of being the murderer of Duan Zhengchun's assassination. Now that Duan Yu showed an attitude of thoroughly investigating the matter and swearing not to let it go, the suspicion was immediately washed away.
In this way, Duan Yu's position in the imperial court was even more stable, and even the imperial army began to favor him.
And once the matter of Duan Zhengchun's assassination was thoroughly investigated, some clues would be found. Once the spearhead was pointed at Duan Hong, not only Duan Hong, but the entire Duan Hong family would fall into a situation of eternal damnation.
The situation in Dali immediately reversed 180 degrees.
Duan Zhengchun's evaluation of Duan Hong was that he had "great ambition but little talent", which showed that it was not a lie. Since Duan Hong was prepared to rebel in the palace, he should have killed Duan Yu as well to completely remove the hidden danger. But in the end, he left behind a tail and immediately suffered a backlash.
Another point was that Duan Hong's intelligence work was a bit bad. He did not pay attention to the movements of the Fallen Leaves Alliance, and allowed them to control the situation in Dali, causing them to lose everything.
It was precisely "unable to accomplish anything, but good at spoiling things".
… …
Just as the Fallen Leaves Alliance returned to Dali, the diplomatic group sent by Duan Zhengchun also arrived at Lingxi City.
Yunnan's Governor Bai Hua received the news and hurriedly met the diplomatic group. He immediately arranged for people to bring the diplomatic group to the capital. At the same time, Bai Hua immediately sent a letter to Ouyang Shuo, explaining the matter.
Ouyang Shuo received the news and ordered Cao Chun to lead the first legion of the Soaring Eagle Army to immediately teleport to Lingxi City and move to the border of Dali Prefecture, paying attention to the movements in Dali.
He immediately realized that an excellent opportunity had arrived.
Under Ouyang Shuo's remote control, the Fallen Leaves Alliance, the army, the cabinet, the Mountain Sea Guards, and other organizations quickly took action. Taking down Dali Prefecture was their first priority.
Since Ouyang Shuo personally intervened in this matter, it meant that Duan Hong's family was not far from destruction.
Under the investigation of the Mountain Sea Guards, the murderer was pointed at the Blood Edge. Ouyang Shuo had the contact information of the Blood Edge's leader, so he directly sent a letter to inquire.
According to the rules, an assassin organization like the Blood Edge could not divulge the employer's information to a third party.
But who was Ouyang Shuo?
This hegemon-level figure who could make the wilderness tremble with a stomp of his foot had personally inquired, and the matter involved the vital interests of Great Xia. How could the Blood Edge dare to conceal it?
If they were not careful, they would be destroyed.
When the Blood Edge's leader heard that Duan Zhengchun was prepared to abdicate his position to Great Xia, he could not wait to tear Duan Hong into pieces. His heart burned with anger. "This matter involves Great Xia, is it something we can participate in?"
If he had known that the matter would be so complicated, the Blood Edge would not have dared to accept this deal even if he was beaten to death.
Immediately, the Blood Edge's leader not only dealt with the person in charge of this deal, but also completely divulged the relevant information about Duan Hong's contract to kill to Ouyang Shuo.
