The Great Zhou Dynasty, where the capital was located.

In the main hall, there were countless controversies among the court officials and the atmosphere was intense.

"The six million troops were blocked by one person and could not move forward. Even the commander of the army was killed by him alone. It was a shame that has never happened in ancient times!"

"Your Majesty is not a pity for King Xuan to die! The senior officials of the army should also be punished in full! Please kill Lin Shiguang, the commander of the left army who retreated first!"

"Mr. Geng is really a pure and honest person. He can't rub any sand in his eyes. Otherwise, if all the senior officials in the army are killed, how about you? " Another person said sarcastically: "Isn't Lin Shiguang just breaking your son's leg? Mr. Geng wants to distinguish between public and private!"

"What Mr. Zhao said is very true. The Taoist priest, with his own strength, welcomed the power of six million troops, and killed the top practitioners like King Xuan, who are at the peak of the Yangshen Realm. His skills are unimaginable. If the army does not retreat, there will be heavy casualties. I believe that the withdrawal will be done together!"

"If the commander of the six million troops is killed, it would be a great humiliation. Then, even the emperor was killed within the territory of Daxia, what is it? Why don't Lord Geng go to the front line to lead troops?"

The court officials below spoke fiercely and spitted everywhere. Among them, the officials who had a gap with King Xuan were even more involved in the injustice, trying to deprive King Xuan of his remaining body of the imperial tomb!

There are also Nan Jinghou’s old opponents who are determined to put him to death and to push for greater crimes to raid his home and exterminate his clan!

The Emperor of Great Zhou sat upright on the dragon throne and looked down at the civil and military officials under the hall. His expression was as usual, but his eyes were full of solemnity.

This time, the launch of troops to attack Xia not only wanted to take advantage of the turbulent situation in the Xia Dynasty to capture cities and territories!

For him, the emperor, he had to use external forces to pour out hidden dangers inside the court.

Moreover, almost half of the six million troops, from the generals to the soldiers under their command, came from two holy places, six major families, and various sects!

This time the war starts, the eyes of all forces will be concentrated on the frontline war, and the capital will be ignored!

But now, the emperor of the Great Zhou, who was arrogant and strategist, did not expect that Taoist Baoshou would block the six million troops with his own strength!

The front line has stopped fighting, and all parties will no longer pay too much attention to the front line. Then the various plans in the capital will be more likely to be exposed to the eyes of all forces.

"This inheritance of Baihong Temple has really ruined my major event!"

The Emperor of Great Zhou looked calm and said in his heart: "Even if he practiced from his mother's womb, he had only been practicing Taoism for twenty years, but he only had more than 7,000 days in total. How could he have such skills? If he was cruel and ruthless, he would just start killing. It would be impossible for the front line to clean up the mess, but he could still win a lot of time for me. But he stopped the future of the army, but he only killed King Xuan, the commander of the three armies, and it was obvious that he was deliberately unable to get along with me!"

The quarrel in the court seemed to be for the country and the people, but more of a conspiracy between various forces!

The Great Zhou Dynasty was infiltrated too deeply by two holy places, six aristocratic families, and various sects. Even the emperor could not clearly identify all of them, and could not know how many of them were clean.

The quarrels in the court made the emperor feel impatient, and immediately waved his hand and announced his retreat.

Not long after, someone came to report it.

"Your Majesty, there are a few adults outside who are coming to plead for Nan Jinghou."

"The evidence for treason is conclusive and the crime is unforgivable. Let them go back." The Emperor of Great Zhou knew their thoughts and looked dull, so he responded in this way.

"But... Lord Geng said that Nan Jinghou was loyal to the country. My Great Zhou gave him up so easily. For a young Taoist priest, he bowed his neck and head to his head. Wouldn't it disappoint the officials in the court? Even more..." The father-in-law outside hesitated: "It will make people all over the world laugh at me!"

“…”

The Emperor of Great Zhou carried his hands on his back, and his expression was complicated.

On the surface, Nan Jinghou convicted the crime of treason.

But in fact, everyone with a discerning eye knows that this is an explanation from the Great Zhou Dynasty to Baoshou Daojun, Fengyuan Mountain.

The officials in the court, without exception, are all people who know the inside story.

Those officials who shouted at the top of their lungs that Nan Jinghou had treason and were unforgivable to confiscate their families and exterminate their clans also knew about this, but it was precisely because they knew about this that they had to pretend to be confused and follow the flow, so that Nan Jinghou would never be doomed!

"not see!"

The Emperor of Great Zhou no longer paid attention to the officials outside the hall, but after half an hour, the prince asked for a meeting.

Emperor Zhou originally wanted to keep him out of the door, but then he thought that after all, he was a direct bloodline, and the future crown prince summoned him to see him.

"Father, the matter of Marquis of Nan Jing..." The prince looked like a young man, with a strong expression, and spoke.

"Okay, I have decided on the Marquis of Nanjing, so there is no need to plead for him." Emperor Zhou said.

"But..." Seeing that Emperor Zhou was unhappy, the prince knew that he was powerless to change, so he had to grit his teeth and said, "Even if he wanted to kill Marquis of Nan Jing, he could not give his head to the young Taoist priest. This time, all officials were disheartened and even more ridiculed by the world!"

"What do you mean?" said Emperor Zhou: "Ignore it, wait for the Lord Baoshou to come to visit and spend the strength of his country to surround him and kill him? Don't look at him at only twenty years old, but with his ability, even if he can really kill him, the Great Zhou would suffer heavy losses. Compared with the current Xia Dynasty, it is not much better..."

"Marquis Nanjing can die, give Baoshou Daojun an explanation, or even secretly compensate Fengyuanshan. Not to mention the sword embryo of the Immortal Sword, it would be fine if he gave him an Immortal Sword, but Marquis Nanjing's head cannot be given..." The prince said seriously.

"You all think that if you give the head of Marquis of Nan Jing, the Great Zhou Dynasty will be disgraced, and all officials will be disappointed?" asked the Great Zhou Emperor.

"No," the prince responded.

"What if the Great Zhou Dynasty breaks the sword world after one month, annexes the Great Xia, suppresses the Taoist Lord Baoshou, or even kills it?" The Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty said slowly: "All lost faces will be covered by endless glory, and all ridicule will become praise! This act of showing weakness will be just to comfort... from the beginning... to give the Great Zhou Dynasty a foundation for life and gain enough time!"

"Father, this is..." The prince was shocked and said in surprise: "This Taoist Lord Baoshou is so powerful. Unless the true immortal is alive, who can suppress him?"

"The major thing I plan is the power to be able to side by side with the true immortal of the Great Dao!" The Emperor of Great Zhou said in a deep voice: "Do you know...the change in the imperial tomb?"

"My son knows it." The prince did not deny it and responded.

"The founding emperor's army was resurrected from the dead, and the imperial tomb was broken, leaving behind the endgame." The Emperor of Great Zhou said slowly: "This endgame is originally one with the remaining formations passed down from the Great Zhou Dynasty throughout the ages, but now it is integrated into one, just to make up for the shortcomings and is complete!"

"Are your father confident?" The prince breathed slightly and his tone was solemn.

"At least 80% sure!" The Emperor of Great Zhou carried his hands on his back and said, "The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty intended to become the Divine Emperor with three pieces of Taoist fruit. If it weren't for the emergence of this Taoist Lord Baoshou, he might have really swept the world and rebuilt the Divine Court! But in my eyes, the path chosen by the Emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty was still inferior..."

"Then this Taoist Lord Baoshou?" the prince asked in a low voice.

"After all, he is not from the Great Zhou, so let him be content with Daxia. It would be better to use Nanjinghou to appease him." The Emperor of Dazhou said, "When the big thing is done, you can eliminate the two holy places, six aristocratic families, and various sects, eliminate internal troubles, and annex Daxia in one fell swoop... Not to mention this fake fairyland Baoshou Daojun, even the Netherworld Prison God who exists at the level of true immortals in the ancient ruins, can no longer stop my Great Zhou's sharpness!"

"If this is true, it is worth tolerating for the time being." The prince said so.

“Although tolerate, there are limits.”

The Emperor of Great Zhou said this and said, "The head of the Marquis of Nan Jing and the sword embryo of the immortal sword are already the bottom line! If I get more and more aggressive, I will..."

Before his voice fell, a sound came from outside.

"Your Majesty, General Lin from the front line has heard that the little bear under the command of Baoshou Daojun of Fengyuan Mountain not only wants to take the head of Nanjinghou, but also half of Nanjinghou's property!"

“…”

The Emperor of Great Zhou paused for a moment and said, "I am sure!"

Seeing this, the prince remained silent and pondered for a long time before he stepped down.

He did not dare to speak nonsense and dared to disclose the matter when it involved the foundation of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

The Emperor of Great Zhou quietly watched him leave and sighed.

After a while, he saw him looking at the dark place and whispered: "Taizu, the emperor's whereabouts are still unknown. Logically speaking, he should have gone to Fengyuan Mountain to find Taoist Baoshou, the fifth-generation master of Baihong Temple who blocked the six million troops of our Great Zhou! But the biggest hidden danger at the moment is not the fifth-generation master of Baihong Temple, but from the inside of the Great Zhou! This time, Taoist Baoshou blocked the army of our Great Zhou. Now the front-line army cannot attack, the war has stopped, and all parties can no longer pay attention to it. Their eyes will still fall in the capital again!"

"Then..." In the darkness, there was a dry and subtle voice, and he said softly: "Cover their eyes..."

"Understood."

The Emperor of Great Zhou looked cold and his eyes looked deep.

At the same time, the situation in Daxia was even more chaotic.

The emperor fell, the prince died of illness, and the new emperor was not established. With the support of various forces, the only remaining bloodline of the royal family intends to compete for the throne, causing countless bloody storms.

The three major immortal sects, the twelve sects, and all aristocratic races are all fighting for power and profit!

The Great Zhou raised six million troops and was about to attack Daxia, but the competition between the parties has not stopped. Whoever stops first will have less benefits!

"It's time to negotiate in advance and stabilize the situation. All parties are concerned about fighting for power and profit, but they don't know that there is no end to the collapse of the nest!" The head of the Jiuxiao Immortal Sect sighed.

"But the one who first takes the overall situation into consideration and fights the enemy to the death will definitely be the worst in the end!" The head of Shangyuan Immortal Sect smiled and said, "We are waiting behind, and you Jiuxiao Immortal Sect will first resist the foreign enemies. Could it be that you are willing?"

The front-line war is about to begin. If any force abandons the court dispute and goes to support the front line, it will inevitably suffer heavy losses!

When I turned around, my own forces had exhausted their foundation in order to defend the border, but the authority in the court fell into the hands of others. From then on, my own forces were within the territory of the Daxia Dynasty and could be controlled by others!

It is precisely because of this that all parties weighed the pros and cons, but none of them rushed to the border.

"No matter whether it is the court or the twelve sects, it is not important. What is more important now is... we, the three major immortal sects, still have to reach a consensus!"

The head of the Jade Dragon Immortal Sect said this.

And before long, I heard news from the border.

All forces in Daxia have learned of this news. They were originally in a heavy mood and were prepared for it, thinking that it would be news of the fall of the border.

Unexpectedly, Taoist Lord Baoshou, who killed the Emperor of Daxia, went to the border and turned the tide. With his own strength, he blocked the army of Dazhou!

This news was sent back to Daxia, and now all parties are shocked, and the turbulence is spreading all directions.

"He seems to be stronger?"

The head of the Jiuxiao Immortal Sect looked complicated, and he could not hide his shock in his eyes. He whispered: "The skills he showed when he killed the Emperor of Daxia last time has exceeded any strong man in three thousand years, and in ancient times it was second only to the Divine Emperor! But the force of the six million troops was in line with the peak of the Yang Shen Realm. The sword he slashed out should be stronger than that of the Emperor of Daxia, but with his own strength, he actually blocked it? In this way... his true ability can be comparable to the Divine Emperor of the past dynasties after the first generation of the Divine Emperor?"

The ruthless people who originally planned to rebel and kill the monarch, led to turmoil across the country and caused invasion of the enemy country, have now become the biggest contributor to turn the tide and save Daxia, causing the royal family, court officials, government officials, army and even the people to fall into a complex mood.

Some people still resent the Taoist Baoshou who killed the king and rebelled, while others were in awe of Taoist Baoshou who saved the world.

Until a few days later, the royal family descendants who were fighting for power and profit in the capital reached a consensus and announced to the world in the name of the royal family.

"The former emperor was unrighteous, incompetent and ignorant, and tried to subvert Zhongzhou and harm the people. Fortunately, he was the Baihong Guan Baoshou Taoist Lord in Fengyuan Mountain, to rectify the chaos and save all people from the fire and water!"

"Today, the Great Zhou Dynasty has raised six million elite troops and invaded our border with Daxia. Taoist Baoshou has turned the tide with his own strength, retreated to stop the war, and made great achievements for thousands of years!"

This is to appease Taoist Lord Baoshou and to justify the name of Baihong Temple in Fengyuan Mountain, so as not to have a lot of discussion in the world. This young and energetic Taoist priest was named a rebellious thief, which would lead to even greater disasters!

Regarding this matter, it is actually a consensus reached by the three major immortal sects!
To be continued...
