Taiping Inn

The person who came was Lan Xuanshuang. Zhang Baizhou was entrusted to her by Li Xuandu and Qin Su. In addition, she had a good impression of Zhang Baizhou, so she would not let Zhang Baizhou make any mistakes.

With Lan Xuanshuang's foothold as the center, clusters of bright red flowers of the other shore grew, like a dream. The scene in front of everyone suddenly changed. They were no longer in Manchunyuan, but they were still surrounded by the bright red and enchanting Manshazhuhua flower sea, and the flower sea was even wider, stretching to the horizon as far as the eye could see. On the other side of the flower sea was a rushing river.

This scene made it difficult for people not to think of the legendary Wangchuan.

After death, people have to pass through the Ghost Gate and pass through Huangquan Road. Between Huangquan Road and the underworld, the Wangchuan River is divided as a boundary. The water of Wangchuan River is blood yellow. On Wangchuan River is Naihe Bridge, and Mengpo is guarding the bridge head. If you want to cross the bridge, you have to drink Mengpo soup. The mortals in the world believe it.

In an instant, all the visitors seemed to be in an ice cellar, with a chill on their backs and great fear.

It was precisely because Lan Xuanshuang had not been in the world for a long time and did not know the Imperial Capital that she did not have the awe of the Imperial Capital that ordinary people had. Moreover, she had been away for a long time and her old friends were gone, so she had no feelings for the human world. Naturally, she was not as considerate of the overall situation as Li Xuandu, but acted without scruples. If possible, she did not mind killing people.

However, Lan Xuanshuang also sensed the presence of masters around, so she was not in a hurry to take action. The illusion at this time was more of a deterrent.

Lan Xuanshuang looked at Ding Ce, who was facing a great enemy, and asked, "What are the remnants of the Zhang family?"

Ding Ce was stunned and did not know how to answer. Because Lan Xuanshuang asked "What are the remnants of the Zhang family", not "Who are the remnants of the Zhang family".

Seeing Ding Ce remained silent, Lan Xuanshuang asked again: "What is the remnant of the Zhang family?"

Ding Ce had to speak: "The remnant of the Zhang family is the remnant of the Zhang family, that is, the young man next to you."

Lan Xuanshuang nodded, "I see."

Ding Ce was, after all, a hall official of the Qingluan Guard Governor's Office. He remained calm at this time, staring at the woman, and asked in a deep voice: "Who are you?"

Lan Xuanshuang raised her hand, pointed to the northwest, and said: "I am from Kunlun Mountain."

Ding Ce was shocked and understood the origin of this woman.

Those pseudo-immortals who escaped from the "Xuandu Zifu" in Kunlun Mountain, although they no longer had the cultivation between the heavenly man-made realm and the longevity realm after leaving the "Xuandu Zifu", but those who were able to return to the human world were not ordinary people.

At this moment, someone finally couldn't help but speak, "Who are you? You're too bold, this is the Imperial Capital?"

Lan Xuanshuang turned his head and looked, and his eyes fell on a young man, which made the young man's breath choke, and then asked: "Imperial Capital, so what?"

Before he finished speaking, the face of this nosy young man turned red, and then turned purple, and at the same time his hands and feet danced randomly, like a drowning person.

Huang Shiyuan and Qi Foyan in the watchtower changed their faces slightly, and said in unison: "What a brilliant illusion."

Illusion is also within the scope of magic, but there is a difference. Ordinary great masters of the heaven and man realm can change the weather when they enter the realm of unity of heaven and man. Just like if you want to drown a person, you can directly move the water from rivers, lakes and seas to drown the person directly, or you can use illusion to create endless blue waves to make people fall into the illusion of drowning, which can also cause drowning. Both have their own advantages and disadvantages. If the illusion can be seen through, the illusion will disappear. However, even if the magic is broken, the method of unity of heaven and man can still drown people, because the water is real. It's just that the former is more labor-saving and can be done with a thought, while the latter is more laborious. To communicate the bridge between heaven and earth, you have to go with the flow.

At this time, Lan Xuanshuang used a very clever illusion. Just by looking at the man, he seemed to be in the deep sea and could not breathe. If no one rescued him, he would slowly drown.

People in the Confucian sect have never been good at this kind of method, and in the Taoist sect, Ji Tianwang is good at this, but after Ji Tianwang died, few people can have such a method.

After a while, seeing that the man was about to die, Lan Xuanshuang lifted his illusion, and then saw him lying on the ground, gasping for breath, like a big fish thrown ashore.

Seeing this scene, the others dared not move anymore.

Of course, there were also guards, who dared not step forward at this time? They were just guards, not death warriors, and they would not force themselves to fight when they knew they could not win. After all, the one who was bearing the brunt at this time was Ding Ce, not the master they were supposed to protect.

Everyone stood up and retreated, and at the same time someone stepped forward to carry the unlucky guy out, leaving a large open space on the already extremely wide platform. There were only Lan Xuanshuang and Ding Ce in this open space. Lu Yanbing had met Lan Xuanshuang once in the Great Immortal Mansion, and knew that she was Li Xuandu's man, so he was relieved, grabbed Zhang Baizhou's shoulder, and pulled him back to prevent being affected.

Lan Xuanshuang turned his gaze to Ding Ce again, then stretched out a finger, and a tiny red spider lily grew on the tip of his finger, which began to bloom slowly. When the flower bloomed, anyone who looked at the flower would be sucked into it, and their hearts would be frightened by it.

Ding Ce was, after all, a great master of the Heavenly Man Infinite Realm. He reluctantly moved his eyes away, but he still felt tremendous pressure. Finally, he could no longer hold back and dared not hide his power. He quickly raised his aura to the peak of his cultivation and was ready to fight to the death. After all, this was the Imperial Capital. As long as he could hold on for a while, someone would come here to pick him up.

Just then, Huang Shiyuan and Qi Foyan finally couldn't sit still anymore, and flew out of the watchtower together, landing between Lan Xuanshuang and Ding Ce, separating the two.

Lan Xuanshuang looked at the two people. Although she didn't recognize them, and didn't know their identities, she could still judge their origins from the same aura on them - Confucianists.

The Confucianists have the same noble aura, which is very easy to distinguish.

When the two appeared, many visitors were relieved and bowed respectfully, saying, "Meet Mr. Yuzhai and Master Songfeng."

Ding Ce clasped his hands, "Thank you for coming forward."

Huang Shiyuan smiled and nodded, raised his hand to the guests, indicating that they didn't need to be polite.

Qi Foyan said to Ding Ce: "Commander Ding, Miss Lu is right. Leave a way out when you do things so that we can meet again in the future. What you did today was a bit too much."

Ding Ce smiled bitterly and said: "I can't help it."

Qi Foyan shook his head and said no more. He turned to look at Lan Xuanshuang and said softly: "I haven't asked your name yet?"

In Lan Xuanshuang's opinion, these two people have good cultivation. One is in the realm of heaven and man, and the other is in the realm of heaven and man. They are not mediocre, so she did not act rashly and replied: "My surname is Lan."

Qi Foyan suddenly realized: "Are you the new leader of Zaoge Sect, Madam Lan?" "It's me." Lan Xuanshuang frowned slightly.

Qi Foyan bowed and said, "I have admired you for a long time. I am so sorry for your disrespect."

Lan Xuanshuang shook her head and said, "I don't deserve it. Who are you?"

Huang Shiyuan said, "I am the chief priest of the Sheji Academy."

Qi Foyan said, "I am the mountain master of Jinling Academy."

Although Lan Xuanshuang has not been back to the human world for a long time, she understands the principle of knowing yourself and knowing your enemy. Now that she has chosen to follow Li Xuandu, she naturally needs to know who her enemy is. Therefore, she has learned about the corresponding situation of the Confucian School and knows some things about the three major palaces and four major academies. Naturally, she also understands the importance of the two people in front of her.

Lan Xuanshuang took a deep breath and asked, "What do you mean?"

Huang Shiyuan and Qi Foyan looked at each other and said, "Today's matter is just a misunderstanding. Let's take a step back."

Before he finished speaking, a voice came from another watchtower, like a spring thunder: "No!"

Everyone's eyes turned to the watchtower from which the voice came.

Some young masters had just let go of their worries, and they were suddenly lifted up again. Some people have identified the owner of this voice, and it is His Royal Highness the Prince of Tang, who is second only to the Prince of Jin and the Prince of Yan!

Now the Empress Party and the Emperor Party are at loggerheads. If we forcefully divide them into black and white, Huang Shiyuan and Qi Foyan, two great figures from the Confucian school, are both members of the Emperor Party, while the Prince of Tang, who was promoted by the Queen Mother, is a member of the Empress Party.

The two Confucian gentlemen want to settle the matter peacefully, but His Royal Highness the Prince of Tang is unwilling to do so.

As the saying goes, people with different philosophies cannot work together, and the two Confucian gentlemen cannot force His Royal Highness the Prince of Tang.

As for why His Royal Highness the Tang King and Ding Ce were holding on to Zhang Baizhou, the orphan of the Zhang family, the reason was very simple. They were afraid that Li Xuandu would really negotiate peace with the Queen Mother. If the two sides reached a peace agreement, the Queen Mother, who had the highest status, would definitely not be responsible for the Zhang family's affairs. So they had to introduce a scapegoat. This scapegoat must not only be deeply involved in the Imperial Capital Incident of the year, but also have a high status, so that they could give an explanation and stop the world from talking. In this case, the Tang King and Ding Ce could both become the scapegoat, so they must make a big fuss about this matter, creating a tense relationship between Li Xuandu and the Queen Mother Xie Zhi, thereby undermining the peace talks. Zhang Baizhou came to Beijing at this time, just to be delivered to the door, no matter what, they would not let go.

Huang Shiyuan and Qi Foyan naturally understood the reason, looked at each other again, and then sighed, knowing that today's matter would most likely not end well.

A moment later, Tang Wang Xu Zaixu walked out of the watchtower and came to the platform, followed by a beautiful woman, whose appearance was no less than that of tonight's protagonist Shi Hengbo.

No matter what they thought in their hearts, everyone saluted: "Meet His Majesty Tang Wang."

Everyone bowed their heads, Lan Xuanshuang, Zhang Baizhou, and Lu Yanbing looked extremely abrupt, especially Lan Xuanshuang, who stood with his hands behind his back and said: "Tang Wang is unwilling to give in."

Tang Wang said: "The king's law is ruthless."

Lan Xuanshuang turned his eyes to Huang Shiyuan and Qi Foyan, "What are your plans? Will you obey the orders of this Tang Wang? Or will you not help each other?"

The two were a little embarrassed.

Before the two Confucian gentlemen could speak, Tang Wang had already said: "Don't bother you gentlemen, the court has special people to deal with these lawless people."

In the night sky, three long rainbows flew over.
