Blood gushed out of his mouth and he fainted from the pain. He was thrown out of the Misty Pavilion. Fortunately, the cultivators who escorted him saved his life.
When he woke up, he found himself back in the Prime Minister's Mansion and he could no longer speak.
The pain caused by the wound in his mouth was unimaginable. Now, it was difficult for him to even eat or drink. He needed the help of cultivators.
Previously, he did not know if his persuasion had any effect, because he did not even see the person in charge of the Misty Pavilion. Even when he used Zi Pingxiu's identity as the Prime Minister of the Song Kingdom, he only saw one of the stewards, and ended up in such a state. This time, he had personally experienced the tyranny of the Misty Pavilion.
Now that he heard the good news, he felt that he didn't lose his tongue in vain.
Except for a few people in the Kingdom of Song, no one thought that Jia Wuqun's trip to the Misty Pavilion would mean anything to the world.
In the beginning, the Misty Pavilion didn't pay much attention to the list of names submitted by the various countries. They didn't think that the countries would dare to be perfunctory until Jia Wuqun appeared. Jia Wuqun's words did attract the attention of the Misty Pavilion. That was why the Misty Pavilion summoned the heads of the various sects to the Misty Pavilion.
Because of Jia Wuqun's small action, the Misty Pavilion changed the list of names submitted by the various countries. The Misty Pavilion also took advantage of this opportunity to wipe out the rogue cultivators in the world.
Zi Pingxiu wiped his tears with his sleeves. Jia Wuqun was his trusted advisor, but he grew up in the Zi Palace. They were like family and friends. Jia Wuqun played a big part in Zi Wuqun's rise to the position he had today, but now he was in this state.
First, his son-in-law died in battle. Then, his daughter committed suicide. His grandson and granddaughter cried every day to see their parents. Now, this family member who was like family and friend was in this state. How could he not be sad?
He put down his sleeves and said, "His Majesty appreciates Mister's contribution and wishes to visit you personally. Mister, please make some preparations." This was also one of the reasons why he came in a hurry.
Jia Wuqun was slightly stunned. He smiled bitterly. He knew that Zi Pingxiu must have praised him in front of the Emperor. Then, he wrote, "Does the Prime Minister want to harm me? I don't know how many cultivators in the world I have offended. my name must not be spread! "
Zi Pingxiu was stunned and immediately understood what he meant.
…
"What?"
In the Fufang Garden of the Qi Capital, Yu Cang was stunned when he heard the Misty Pavilion's order to freeze the war.
He was already packing up his things and was ready to rush to Zhao Guotian, Zhengyang, and Ma Changan. The Waning Moon Pavilion was ready to officially rise on the stage, and the carriage in the courtyard was already loading things.
The Misty Pavilion had always looked on coldly from the sidelines. Freezing the war? What kind of joke was that? He thought that he had misheard and asked again.
Du Gu Jing sighed, "Rumor has it that it's because the Secret Territory of Heaven Capital is about to open, but because of the war, the various countries kept their elite cultivators and did not report the name list of those entering the Secret Territory, which made the Misty Pavilion unhappy. The Misty Pavilion then ordered the war to be frozen, and asked the countries to re-draft the list of names. After the Secret Territory of Tiandu, the war will be unfrozen … "
After hearing the details, Yu Cang subconsciously touched his forehead. He was so scared that he almost broke out in a cold sweat. His heart was still trembling, and he still had a lingering fear.
If the news had come a few days later, when the Kingdom of Zhao started the war, the Waning Moon Pavilion would have also surfaced. If the Misty Pavilion suddenly froze the war and the Waning Moon Pavilion surfaced, they would not be able to do anything, nor could they retreat. They would probably die a terrible death.
This was really frightening! Yu Cang pressed his hand on his chest and repeatedly rejoiced, "Fortunately, fortunately, it came in time. If it came a little later, the consequences would be unimaginable. Now the problem of freezing the war is not big, as long as it remains the same. This means that after the Secret Territory of Heaven Capital, the current situation is destined to continue the war, and we can continue to push forward. It's just a temporary freeze, and the impact is not big. We have waited for so many years, we don't mind waiting a little longer! "
He turned back and asked, "What did you just say? This time even the rogue cultivators are going to enter the Secret Territory of Heaven Capital? "
Dugu Jing handed over a list with both hands, "This is a copy of the list posted by the Misty Pavilion. According to reliable sources, because of the war between the various countries, many elite cultivators were lost. The Misty Pavilion considered this, and to make up for the possible shortfall, they made an exception and gathered a thousand elite rogue cultivators to enter the Secret Territory of Heaven Capital. The rogue cultivators entering the Secret Territory of Heaven Capital were recommended by the thirty members of the Misty Pavilion. Most of the rogue cultivators on the Pill List are on the list. "
"Am I on it too?" Yu Cang saw that his expression was not good, and felt something was wrong. He asked in a daze, and at the same time snatched the list.
Dugu Jing shook her head, "Master's name is not on the list, it shows that the sect leaders still give Master face. Moreover, even if Master goes in, with Master's years of operation, the various forces will more or less give Master some face, and won't make things difficult for Master in the Secret Territory of Heaven Capital. "
Hearing that he was not on the list, Yu Cang heaved a sigh of relief, and his anxious expression calmed down.
Unexpectedly, Dugu Jing then said, "Niu Youdao is on the list, if Niu Youdao wants to enter the Secret Territory of Heaven Capital, he can't avoid it, and he doesn't dare to avoid it."
Yu Cang suddenly looked up at him, and then hurriedly checked the list to confirm, and finally saw the three words "Niu Youdao" among the thousand rogue cultivators. He was stunned on the spot, and the muscles on his face kept twitching. He finally understood why his disciple Dugu Jing did not look good.
Yes, the frozen war would thaw, and the plot of the Waning Moon Pavilion would continue as the war thawed, and it would not have much impact.
But now the key was that the key figure of the Waning Moon Pavilion's plan, Niu Youdao, was in trouble, and Niu Youdao was going to enter the Secret Territory of Heaven Capital. Once something happened to Niu Youdao in the Secret Territory of Heaven Capital, the plan of the Waning Moon Pavilion would also be doomed.
If the uprising of Tian Zhengyang and Ma Changan, which were arranged by the Waning Moon Pavilion, needed the cooperation of the external environment.
The two million troops under their command were the troops of the Kingdom of Zhao, and without eliminating the influence of external factors, it would be very difficult to control them.
Once Tian Zhengyang and Ma Changan started an uprising, the Kingdom of Zhao would not let such a thing happen. If it really came to that point, what was the point of invading the Kingdom of Yan? They would have to break their own hands and feet, and they would not be able to keep their eyes on the fat meat of others. They would have to fight against the external forces first, and if the internal forces were unstable, they would not have the ability to deal with the external forces.
When that time came, it was not hard to imagine what the Kingdom of Zhao would do. They would definitely humiliate and compromise with Yan, even if they had to make a considerable degree of concessions.
And Yan was also an arrow at the end of its flight, and it was not in the interest of Yan to fight to the death. As long as the Kingdom of Zhao was forced to make concessions, Yan's troops would definitely retreat to deal with the Han.
Yan had now abandoned the Kingdom of Song and started a war with the Kingdom of Zhao because he had no other choice. As long as there was the slightest possibility, he would not sit back and watch the Han swallow up the Kingdom of Song and grow stronger. After resolving the threat of the Kingdom of Zhao, it was inevitable that he would join forces with the Kingdom of Song to deal with the Han.
When that time came, no matter how much the Waning Moon Pavilion begged Yan, it would be useless. It was not something that could be solved by giving Niu Youdao twenty million gold coins.
In the face of Yan's national interests, it was related to the long-term interests of Yan, including the three major sects. It was impossible for Yan to cooperate with the Waning Moon Pavilion.
Once the Kingdom of Zhao decided to endure the humiliation and make concessions to Yan, the price that the Kingdom of Zhao would have to pay would definitely be far more than twenty million gold coins. The Han could get more from the Kingdom of Zhao than the Waning Moon Pavilion had given them, and they could also protect their own long-term interests. How could the Waning Moon Pavilion be able to buy them over just by giving them something?
Only Niu Youdao could influence the situation at this critical point. Only Niu Youdao could buy time for the Waning Moon Pavilion to take control of the two million troops.
They had already reached an agreement with Niu Youdao, and they had even given Niu Youdao the money. Now, something like this suddenly popped up. What was going on?
It was not like Niu Youdao wanted to renege on the debt. This kind of money could not be taken back, unless they wanted to break up their partnership.
The key point was that Yu Cang did not want to take back the money. He just wanted Niu Youdao to help him create an environment for his rise.
Facing the Waning Moon Pavilion's many years of painstaking planning, and now that they were at the last step, twenty million gold coins was nothing!
If it was not for the fact that Niu Youdao was so decisive, if Niu Youdao had insisted, let alone twenty million, even fifty million gold coins would have been given to him!
The Misty Pavilion's indiscriminate attack had truly stunned Yu Cang. His old face was dark and gloomy. He gritted his teeth and said, "The Misty Pavilion, these bastards, didn't they just want to take the opportunity to weaken the rogue cultivators?"
"Master, what do we do now?" Dugu Jing asked.
Yu Cang clenched the list in his hand tightly and said, "Niu Youdao is not a good person either! But now, the Yan Country's military power and troops are in the hands of Shang Chaozong and Meng Shanming. The Southern State's troops are in charge of the entire Yan Country's military affairs, and Niu Youdao has absolute influence over them! At this juncture, nothing must happen to this bastard who is taking advantage of the situation! "
The reason why he scolded Niu Youdao for profiting from a burning house was because he felt that Niu Youdao was very unscrupulous. Previously, the Waning Moon Pavilion had helped Niu Youdao so many times without complaint, and they had granted almost all of his requests. When something happened, he hoped that Niu Youdao would have some conscience and repay them a little. Who knew that this bastard would actually ask him for money!
And the reason he came up with was to help the Waning Moon Pavilion in the war and ask for military funds. Would they give it to him or not?
Dugu Jing's face was full of worry, "This is very difficult, there is almost no other way. The Misty Pavilion has already announced it, there is no way to take it back. We are nothing in the eyes of the Misty Pavilion, we can't influence their attitude. Niu Youdao also has no way to avoid this. There is no use in pretending to be dead. If he does, he will probably be thrown into the Mysterious Heaven Region. "
"Back then, we supported Shao Pingbo, and now we helped Niu Youdao. Why? The forces he has built up in the Southern State are too important to us. We cannot let anything happen to him! " Yu Cang shook his beard and emphasized again. He pointed at Dugu Jing and said, "If you can't do anything outside, then think of something in the Secret Realm of Heaven Capital. You have to protect him at all costs. You have to let him come back alive. In short, you can't let anything happen to him, understand?"
