No one was surprised that someone from the Mirror Moon Tower came.
There was a rumor that the Mirror Moon Tower was in cahoots with Chang 'an, causing the Cheng Family's Cheng Jingyuan and Cheng Luo to fall when they attacked Chang' an.
During this period, the Eastern Tang royalty had been investigating the Mirror Moon Tower thoroughly.
This time, the Crown Prince had gathered masters from all over again to deal with the Chang 'an problem. It was not surprising that the Mirror Moon Tower sent people to join the battle to prove their innocence.
It was also normal that the Tower Master himself did not come. Otherwise, when he went to Chang 'an, his sect might have been wiped out.
It was also understandable that the Cheng Family did not send anyone this time.
Cheng Jingyuan and Cheng Luo, two Seventh Realm masters, were killed, and the Cheng Family's strength was greatly damaged. They also had to be wary of others taking advantage of the situation.
On the other hand, they were also keeping an eye on the Mirror Moon Tower to prevent them from making any moves.
However, the other person who came in with Crown Prince Li Hong attracted everyone's attention.
This person was covered in a black robe, and no one could see his face clearly.
However, the same name appeared in everyone's mind at the same time.
"Purple Sun," Yuan Shuang.
The Eastern Tang's Bright Pavilion was secretive and had many masters, so it was also known as the Secret Pavilion. All these years, it had been the sharp blade in the King of Tang's hands, and the outside world was terrified.
The Secret Pavilion was unscrupulous, secretive, and ruthless. In order to increase their strength, they secretly took in many evil masters.
Among them, there were three High Priests who were the most powerful and were also the most feared by the outside world.
Those in the know usually called them "One Dao, One Martial, and One Devil".
Elder Gu Hechuan, who betrayed the Green Cloud Temple, was one Dao.
"Purple Sun," Yuan Shuang, was the other Devil.
The world divided good and evil into camps, and it was customary to call them good and evil, not good and evil.
Humans refined demon blood and cultivated demon arts, which was the Devil Path. It was one of the many cultivation methods, and there was no difference between good and evil.
However, objectively speaking, most Devil Path cultivators had negative emotions. They were troubled by negative emotions such as bloodlust, evilness, coldness, and cruelty, which affected their state of mind.
The higher one's cultivation level was, the easier it was for the darkness in one's heart to be magnified, to the point where one might even lose control and go crazy.
Among them, there were also some people who were impatient for success and were greedy for more. They chose to cultivate in a rather bloody and cruel way.
It was because there were many people who wanted to bring disaster to the human world and were viewed as enemies by the cultivators of the other Daos.
Nowadays, in the Eastern Tang dynasty, few people of the Devil Path showed up on the surface. When the Devil's whereabouts were exposed, almost everyone wanted to beat him up.
Therefore, there were very few Demonic Dao cultivators. Even if there were a few, they would keep a low profile and try their best to hide their tracks.
However, as the saying goes, 'A small hermit hides in the wilderness, a middle hermit hides in the city, and a great hermit hides in the court.'
The number one master of evil in the Eastern Tang dynasty in recent years was the "Purple Sun" Yuan Shuang, who hid in the Secret Pavilion and was worshipped by the royal family.
A chuckle came from under the black robe.
A pair of withered and wrinkled hands reached out and took off the hood of the black robe, revealing an old face.
It was Purple Sun.
"Hello, everyone."
Purple Sun smiled with a gentle expression.
But the other people in the hall felt a chill in their hearts.
Crown Prince Li Hong said at this time, "Father has sent back an imperial edict, asking the Mingguang Pavilion to cooperate with us fully. Therefore, we have to trouble Mr. Yuan to come out and subdue the rebels in Chang 'an."
Commandery Prince Qingyuan Li Dang let out a long breath and smiled. "Mr. Yuan should have cultivated the Devil Soul and reached the eighth realm of the Devil Path, right? With Mr. Yuan's help, we will definitely succeed this time. "
Purple Sun smiled. "Fourth Commandery Prince, you flatter me. It's rare that His Majesty allows me to come out and get some fresh air. I will follow your lead."
"You are too kind." Li Dang looked at his elder brother, Crown Prince Li Hong.
King of Tang personally led the army, and Crown Prince stayed in the capital to supervise the country, so he couldn't be easily moved.
Therefore, Commandery Prince Qingyuan, Li Dang, took the command this time and gathered the masters to subdue Chang 'an.
"Fourth Brother, thank you for your hard work this time."
Crown Prince Li Hong said as he took out a brocade box and handed it to Li Dang.
Li Dang opened it and saw a blue pearl in the box. He couldn't help but be surprised.
"Brother, isn't this the Blue Sky Eye that Father left for you?"
The brocade box attracted the attention of the surrounding people, including Purple Sun.
The Blue Sky Eye was a treasure of Eastern Tang royalty. It was originally a pair.
Through one eye, one could see the other eye. Therefore, when separated, it could be used for communication.
Before King of Tang went to battle, he took one with him and left the other for Crown Prince Li Hong.
On the one hand, in an emergency, the two sides could contact each other. On the other hand, it could also be used for surveillance.
"Chang 'an is mysterious and unpredictable, and their intentions are unclear. Therefore, Father specially ordered you to wear this Azure Sky Eye. When the time comes, he will personally witness the battle between you and Chang' an," Crown Prince Li Hong said.
Li Dang nodded and took the brocade box. "Unfortunately, the Blue Sky Eye can only be used to see but not to communicate. It takes a lot of effort to transmit a few words."
Crown Prince Li Hong looked around the hall and said, "Thank you for your hard work this time."
Purple Sun, Huang Zhi, Taoist Xuanfeng, Fang Wu, and Lin Xiaoxiao all said, "Your Highness, you are too kind."
Li Dang asked his elder brother, "Brother, did the White Horse College, his Family, and the Zheng Family reply?"
"No." Crown Prince Li Hong smiled faintly and said, "But they have already sent people to Longbei County."
Li Dang and the others laughed.
White Horse College was the head of the three major colleges.
He Family and the Zheng Family were among the six major families of the Eastern Tang.
They had all sent their masters to Chang 'an. Together with the group here, the lineup was quite terrifying.
More importantly, the three families were the vanguard, and they could follow behind …
"The Cheng Family, Mirror Moon Tower, and Qingbokgung can all guarantee that they did not leak the news of their defeat in Chang 'an." Li Dang asked, "What about Fuzhen Guan?"
Crown Prince Li Hong shook his head and said, "No, they have been quiet."
Li Dang sighed and said, "Then we can look forward to the White Horse College."
The people that Li Hong and Li Dang were thinking about were already on their way to Longbei County.
White Horse College was the head of the three major colleges of the Eastern Tang. To a certain extent, it was the number one holy land for Confucian cultivators in the Eastern Tang Dynasty.
At this moment, the group of people from the White Horse Academy were sitting on several huge kites, flying in the sky and crossing thousands of rivers and mountains.
A middle-aged woman with a serious expression sat on the kite at the front. Her smile seemed to have never been with her.
Under her lead, the group of students behind her also sat quietly with solemn expressions.
Suddenly, the middle-aged woman's eyes flickered.
She gently raised her hand, and the giant kite slowed down and landed on the ground Slowly.
At this time, someone on the ground rose into the air.
"Mr. He, Mr. Zheng, how have you been?" The middle-aged woman said.
One of the two people in the air was dressed like a middle-aged Confucian scholar, and the other was tall and burly like a black iron tower.
"Dean Zhao, how have you been?" The two of them bowed to the middle-aged woman.
The middle-aged woman was called Zhao Ning, and she was one of the vice-deans of White Horse College.
The middle-aged Confucian scholar was the elder of the He family, He Zhen, and the burly man was the elder of the Zheng family, Zheng Yuan.
"This time, we will not let Blood Shadow escape," Zheng Yuan Slowly said.
Zhao Ning of White Horse College nodded. "That's right."
The Zheng family and White Horse College had once tried to kill Blood Shadow.
But twenty-five years ago, the Old Devil suddenly vanished without a trace, never to appear again.
White Horse College and the Zheng family could only give up.
But recently, they suddenly heard that the old villain had reappeared in Longbei County. White Horse College and the Zheng family immediately contacted each other and sent people to Longbei County to kill the old villain.
As for the He Clan, it was because of other reasons.
"What do you think of Xu Xingzhi, Dean Zhao?" He Zhen asked.
Zhao Ning's expression didn't change at all. "He has abandoned himself and is no longer a student of our college. He hasn't committed any more evil deeds, so we won't punish him for now. But we won't interfere with what Mr. He wants to do."
He Zhen nodded. "That's for the best."
He Family had a grudge with Xu Xingzhi in the past. He Family's debate on scriptures had caused the death of an elder in his family.
He hid in White Horse College to cultivate, and his Family didn't pursue the matter for now.
Later, he was kicked out of White Horse College, and his Family had been looking for him ever since.
But they couldn't find him for a few days. Later, they heard that he was in the new city of Chang 'an, just like Blood Shadow.
The He family immediately sent a team of experts to contact White Horse College and the Zheng family to go to Chang 'an together.
"We need to do something about the Eastern Tang royalty," Zheng Yuan said in a low voice. "We need to be careful. We don't want to be surrounded by the Eastern Tang."
Zhao Ning's expression didn't change. "Whether it's Eastern Tang or Chang 'an, they're both not orthodox. Naturally, we need to be careful."
The three families gathered together and headed towards Longbei County.
Just as they were about to reach Longbei County, they suddenly met another group of people.
The Hu family.
"Hu Ming is here?" Zheng Yuan asked.
The leader of the group, the Hu family's elder, Hu Yingming, had a solemn expression. "That's right. This time, we're going to punish him!"
