That's What Villains Are Like

Watching Jiang Lintian leave, Jiang Lan quickly averted his eyes.

Since his father intends to help him put pressure on Emperor Xia, he can also start to think of ways to cooperate.

He didn't expect that his father could really force Emperor Xia to surrender. With his character, he would accept the soft rather than the hard, and in the end, he might end up with a wave of destruction.

Moreover, judging from the description of Emperor Xia in the original plot, his character is somewhat morbid and crazy.

"After the last contact, she should also start to pay attention and order people to investigate me..."

"She can also investigate Su Qinghan's matters, and because of the relationship between Su Qinghan's master Yuqing and the royal family, Emperor Xia will also come into contact with Su Qinghan later."

"So my character in front of her has been established for the most part, and now I just need to follow the trend and add fuel to the flames..."

Jiang Lan stroked the tea cup.

Thanks to the image of a "gentle" handsome young man that he had established in front of Su Qinghan and others.

As long as he inadvertently lets Emperor Xia notice that he is also a person who "cannot help himself" in the game between the Prime Minister's Mansion and the royal family, things will be much simpler.

The first step in conquering Emperor Xia was to dispel the hostility and suspicion in her heart.

Anyway, in his original plan, he planned to break his arms first.

After losing her confidants and subordinates, who can she rely on in the face of the chaotic situation in Daxia today?

When the time comes, he will be a shining sun in her gloomy world, bringing her hope and light.

"The Linglong Commander of Ten Thousand Beast Mountain is indeed not a simple person."

"Although she was not mentioned in the original plot, she was born with the ability to talk to insects, fish, birds, and beasts. All creatures within a certain radius can serve as her eyes and ears. This talent has many wonderful uses. If she can harness it for her own use, it can help I will find out a lot of unknown information in the future..."

After Jiang Lan had a plan in mind, he also began to think about the next thing.

In fact, he can also replace this talent with the Fruit of Fate, but if he does this, he will need to plunder the lives of all living individuals within the range and search their memories for scrutiny.

This method is very troublesome, and he will not be able to do everything himself in the future.

"Although Commander Linglong is currently affiliated with Jian Tiansi, he is actually loyal to Emperor Xia."

"However, with her inquiring like this, it is difficult to find out clearly what happened in the Prime Minister's Mansion back then. If that is the case, then I will help her..."

Thinking of this, Jiang Lan began to recall the vague memories of his childhood, and finally settled on a plump and slightly rich woman.

Relying on his memory, he asked the maid to fetch pens, inks, paper, inkstones and other items, and then he started painting in the courtyard.

In a short time, the appearance of the plump woman just now appeared on the white paper like a lifelike one.

"The original person is not only elegant and noble, but also has beautiful handwriting and excellent painting skills..."

Jiang Lan looked at the person in the painting and clicked his tongue secretly, then added some details to make him look much older than he remembered, with some wrinkles on his forehead and eyebrows.

After doing this several times, he nodded with satisfaction and accepted the scroll.

At the same time, he sent a message to Song Youwei, asking her to come to Yuxianfang tonight.

Several days have passed, and there is no news from her. It is not known whether she can get the blood from the Blood Fairy Sect.

"Xiao Teng has been taking some time off these days, so it's time to find something for him to do."

"It just so happens that the matter of the Spirit Turtle Divine Armor should be put on the agenda." Jiang Lan thought of another thing.

The six pieces of spirit tortoise armor in the original plot are the key to leading to the Tianzi Temple.

Among them are many inherited treasures left by the ancient emperor, such as the Thirty-six Zhengfa of Zhou Tian, ​​Sheji Tianshu, Kunwu Immortal Boat and so on.

Every righteous method has great power and mystery. Although he now has no shortage of attack methods, the more opportunities and fortunes he can take into account, the more the better.

"Six pieces of spirit tortoise armor, one is in the royal treasury, and one is in the hands of the national master Ge Qixing. In the original plot, Lin Fan got two pieces, and Xiao Teng got one piece by chance..."

"At this time, Xiao Teng and Ye Ming can also start to contact each other."

After Jiang Lan sent the message to Song Youwei, she began to contact Ye Shiyan and asked her to find a way for Xiao Teng to find the spirit turtle divination armor.

With these two coolie tools around, Jiang Lan naturally wouldn't put too much thought into these places. With the treasure-hunting rats around, it saves both worry and effort.

…

Bihu Village.

Ye Shiyan was sitting on a bluestone leaning against the blue lake. She took off her shoes and socks and put them aside. Under her pure white dress, she saw a pair of exquisite jade feet as white as snow, crystal clear and flawless, soaked in the lake. From time to time it swayed gently, causing ripples.

Many spirit fish crowded around her, making her skin fairer and more delicate.

She held a scroll of scripture in her hand and read it with gusto.

The breeze blows, and the black hair flutters and falls, covering half of her exquisite and beautiful face. She occasionally reaches out to gently tuck the hair to her ears, her expression is cold and casual, and she also exudes grace and luxury.

During this time in Bihu Village, she could be said to have lived a carefree and unrestrained life.

It is far more comfortable than when I was at Xie's house before. I don't have to worry about my identity being suspected, and I don't have to put on a fake smile and act hypocritical all day long.

Hu Sanniang, the owner of Bihu Villa, treated her as a distinguished guest and did not dare to neglect her at all, and offered her all kinds of delicious food and drinks.

On weekdays, she would not come to the courtyard where she rested, nor would she ask any questions about her whereabouts.

It is rare for Ye Shiyan to have such a leisurely and comfortable time.

In her free time, there was a bottle of spirit wine and fruits beside her, and she picked up some ancient human history that she had been interested in and read through it to pass the time, which was very comfortable.

In the dead of night, she picked up those magic crystals and began to practice. Her strength steadily improved and recovered.

During the day, she did not practice, mainly because many people would come to visit Bihu Village during the day, and she was worried about making noise and attracting attention.

Such a leisurely day seemed to her quite good, as if she was being taken care of by Jiang Lan, and she didn't have to worry about the magic crystals she needed for practice.

She just had to deal with the messages from Xiao Teng occasionally, which made her a little tired.

She would be in a better mood if that guy didn't bother her.

Thinking like this, Ye Shiyan suddenly felt the jade telegraph talisman flashing, and there was a fluctuation. She frowned inadvertently, showing obvious disgust.

But remembering Jiang Lan's instructions, she could only reluctantly take out the jade talisman to see what happened to Xiao Teng.

However, when he saw that it was another communication jade talisman that was flickering.

The disgust on Ye Shiyan's face quietly disappeared, and his jade hand began to rub it subconsciously, without immediately looking at its contents.

"You haven't asked me about it for so many days. If you come to me so suddenly, you must have other orders."

"He's really a guy who doesn't go to the Three Treasures Hall for anything."

She wished Jiang Lan would forget her here, so that she could feel at ease.

Shaking his head gently, Ye Shiyan put his mind into the jade talisman to see what Jiang Lan had ordered this time.

"Is it related to Xiao Teng again?"

"Spirit Turtle Armor? What is that thing?"

"In addition, for Xiao Teng to come into contact with Zhang Yuan, a disciple of Yi Sword Palace who has caused a lot of commotion in the imperial capital during this period, it is best to help them form an alliance and become friends..."

"Is there anything special about Zhang Yuan? Is it because at the auction meeting, Jiang Lan took away the strange stone he wanted?"

Soon, after reading the contents of the messenger jade talisman, Ye Shiyan fell into thinking.

Jiang Lan just gave her instructions, but she had to think about how to execute them.

Jiang Lan would explain the details before, but now she doesn't even bother to explain them, and looks like she trusts her very much.

"These things are easy to handle..."

Ye Shiyan could vaguely guess Jiang Lan's purpose.

He probably didn't deliberately let Xiao Teng come into contact with that Zhang Yuan because of the incident at the auction conference. There should be some unknown secret about Zhang Yuan.

Given his character, if he really wanted that strange stone, could Zhang Yuan really auction it off?

Anyway, Ye Shiyan didn’t believe it.

Later, Ye Shiyan sent a message back to Jiang Lan to reassure him, saying it was just a few minor matters, and then asked him intentionally or unintentionally if he had paid attention to anything related to the demon clan recently.

She has been thinking about the demonic scriptures and magical weapons that Jiang Lan mentioned before.

After sleeping in Luohuang Cave for too long, Ye Shiyan had no idea what the current situation of the demon clan was like. When she was in Xie Mansion, she didn't dare to investigate more.

Things related to the demons are prohibited items in Daxia. Even if they are probed, it is difficult to find anything.

So now she can only hope to learn about the situation of some demons through Jiang Lan...

However, after her summons passed, nothing happened. She didn't know whether Jiang Lan didn't notice it or noticed it but pretended not to see it.

After a while, the communication jade talisman flickered. She hurriedly looked at it, only to find that it was Xiao Teng who was contacting her.

Ye Shiyan was so angry that he almost threw the jade communication talisman in his hand into the green lake.

After a while, he calmed down a little.

She just planned to follow Jiang Lan's instructions and respond to Xiao Teng, telling the Naxian Alliance that they were interested in searching for the spirit tortoise armor during this period, and asked him if he knew about this thing and if he had any clues...

At this time, another communication rune flickered, and fluctuations filled the air.

Ye Shiyan looked over and saw that it was Jiang Lan who responded, "Pay attention and I'll bring it to you next time we meet."

"Next time we meet?"

She was startled, and subconsciously tightened her grip on the jade communication talisman. Her originally gloomy mood suddenly felt much happier.

Just how long will it take for the next meeting Jiang Lan said?

He shouldn't let himself wait for a long time, right?

Ye Shiyan felt that his emotional changes during this period were completely controlled by Jiang Lan.

Not long ago, she was thinking that Jiang Lan had better forget about herself.

As a result, now I am a little worried that he has really forgotten me here, and I am even looking forward to the next meeting.

"This guy... is really hateful..."

…

Zhenbei Palace.

In a separate courtyard, the spiritual mist is steaming and the wind is sounding.

A thin and tall figure, with his upper body naked, was performing an ancient boxing technique. As he swung, blazing and bright fist lights burst out, as if an ancient ferocious beast was resurrected in its chest, raising its head and letting out an earth-shattering roar. .

The surrounding formation restrictions all trembled with alarming force.

Xiao Teng is preparing for the next Southern Hunting exercise according to his father Xiao He's instructions. He is studying various skills and magical powers every day, honing his own combat power, and intending to raise his strength to another level.

Although it was hard work, having Xie Jianjia by his side every day made him feel that all the efforts and sweat were worth it.

Especially her words of encouragement seemed to be whispering in his ears.

After using the boxing technique, Xiao Teng wiped his sweat, took out the jade communication talisman, and as usual, asked Xie Jianjia, what she was doing now, whether she had lunch, and the weather was really nice today...

It wasn't until a long time later that the jade talisman's aura fluctuated.

Xiao Teng looked with a smile and told her the boxing skills he had practiced today. He also told her that his strength was much stronger than before, and he could vaguely touch the threshold of the late stage of the Five Realms.

It took another long time before the jade talisman made any movement.

Xiao Teng has long been accustomed to this, but this time the summons jade talisman contained some news that was different from the past.

"Linggui Bujia? I'll ask my father about this later, but I don't think he knows much about it. But since it's Jianjia who wants something, I have to help her."

Xiao Teng secretly remembered it.

Then I saw Xie Jianjia mention something else.

"It seems that Jian Jia also knows about Zhang Yuan, a disciple of Yijian Palace who has caused a commotion in the imperial capital recently and attracted everyone to the world..."

"But she was right. At the auction that day, since Zhang Yuan dared to auction off the strange stone in front of Jiang Lan and the mysterious woman, he must be a person of extraordinary courage and insight who is not afraid of offending the prime minister's government. "

"At the feet of the Emperor of the Imperial Capital, the Southern Hunting Exercise is about to take place. The Prime Minister's Office does not dare to do anything to Zhang Yuan, but after leaving the Imperial Capital, it may not be possible."

"That Zhang Yuan has extraordinary courage, has secrets, and has a common enemy with me. As Jian Jia said, if I get to know him and make a friend, I might be able to use him in the future."

Xiao Teng nodded secretly, and at the same time there was a burst of warmth in his heart. Xie Jianjia was so considerate of him, just like a virtuous wife.

After he secretly memorized all this information, he then ordered people to find out where Zhang Yuan was.

The Southern Hunting Drill is about to take place, and all the immortal sects are sending elders and disciples to watch the ceremony.

The Qianyuan Mansion, which the royal family opens once every few decades, will also be opened to the major immortal sects. At that time, he can go there and make friends with Zhang Yuan.

Qianyuan Mansion is a secret mansion built by the Daxia royal family with a lot of money. It contains many chance treasures, including ancient inscriptions, masters' insights, cliff inscriptions, etc. It is divided into three areas: heaven, earth and people.

Each area has different concentrations of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Even if you only practice in the human area, one day can be as good as the outside world for several days. The more talented the genius, the higher the efficiency of practice and the more benefits they will receive.

Before each Southern Hunting exercise begins, the Daxia royal family will open the Qianyuan Mansion to receive the younger generations of the immortal sects from all walks of life, and arrange residences for them in other courtyards. Each area and courtyard will compete for them based on their strength.

Young disciples from various powerful families and princes and nobles can also go there to compete for resources.

Half a month after Qianyuan Mansion opens, the Southern Hunting Exercise will start at the same time.

When the Qianyuan Cave in the back mountain of the Great Xia Imperial Capital opens, many death row prisoners will be exiled there and become prey for the drill.

This custom has existed since the founding of Daxia and has a history of thousands of years.

…

At night, Xu time, Yuxianfang.

Linshui Xuan.

Song Youwei took advantage of the moonlight and arrived as promised. She was spotless in white clothes and white socks. After taking off her embroidered shoes, she followed Jiang Lan's example and sat cross-legged on the table.

"This is?"

On the tea table in front of him, there was an unfolded picture scroll.

Among them is a lifelike plump woman with a smile on her lips. She looks like she is in her thirties or forties, with traces of weather and age between her eyebrows.

Although she is old, she can still vaguely see that she must have been good-looking when she was young.

After Song Youwei glanced at the portrait, she looked at Jiang Lan sitting opposite her with a strange look.

"Based on this portrait, find someone with a similar body shape and face. The requirement is to be a female cultivator with an innocent background. It is best to have someone with no family or friends."

"This is a bottle of body-shaping and bone-changing elixir. If you can't find someone with the right body shape and face, then find a female cultivator with an innocent background, who is in her forties, and let her swallow the elixir, and the transformation will happen." Look like the woman in the portrait."

Jiang Lan looked at her and said, while placing a bottle of elixir in a small purple jade bottle next to the portrait.

Song Youwei became even more confused when she heard this. She had no idea what Jiang Lan's purpose was.

Find someone to pretend to be the middle-aged woman in the portrait?

"I understand. I will ask people to look for it soon and try to find the right one."

She nodded and put the portrait and the elixir into the Sumeru Ring without asking Jiang Lan why he did this.

"Thanks a lot."

Jiang Lan has always admired Song Youwei's knowledge and intelligence.

She would not ask more questions, and would always do what she was told to do carefully without leaving any mistakes.

"This is a small half bottle of turbid blood. I have tried my best to find it. The elders of the Blood Immortal Sect value turbid blood very seriously and will not let others touch it easily."

At this time, Song Youwei also placed a bloody vase filled with blood in front of Jiang Lan.

She used secret techniques to cover up the aura, so she wasn't worried about attracting attention.

Jiang Lan glanced around and could see the strands of blood flowing in it with a cold and strange aura. The misty blood mist was steaming and slowly flowing there.

The viscosity also contains a kind of life that seems to be corroded and dirty, as if it will erupt from the blood-colored vase at any time, corroding and contaminating all living creatures around it.

"Just one drop of turbid blood can corrode an entire city. If the small half bottle here leaks out, it will be enough to cause a huge disaster."

Jiang Lan nodded, rolled up his sleeves, and collected the turbid blood.

Naturally, he didn't want to keep it for himself, he just waited to see if he could refine it for his own use after returning, and then give it to Song Youwei and let her return it to the Blood Immortal Sect.

He has the inheritance of the Blood Immortal Sect. When he is refining this small half bottle of turbid blood, he does not have to worry about any changes that will occur in it. It is completely guaranteed that no one will notice it.

Song Youwei will not be suspected because of this.

When the time comes when the Blood Immortal Sect takes action against Daxia's national weapon, the Zhenlong Seal, he can do many things with this part of the turbid blood.

"In order to condense this bottle of turbid blood, the Blood Immortal Cult slaughtered many cities in the surrounding small countries. During this southern hunting exercise, the Blood Immortal Cult may have a bigger conspiracy."

"I got the news, it may be related to Dongyuanzhou." Song Youwei picked up the tea and sipped the tea with her red lips.

The Blood Immortal Sect originally came from Dongyuan Prefecture. It caused trouble to the land of Kyushu many years ago, and it was also from Dongyuan Prefecture that it first broke out.

Jiang Lan still remembered the planning discussions of the younger generation of the Tianyan Sect, Biyou Dongtian and other forces at the foot of Zixia Mountain.

Daxia's dragon luck is bleak, the misfortune is coming, and the other major states are also ready to take action.

Now that the Blood Immortal Sect is no longer at its former peak, it is not enough to scare the major states. On the contrary, if Daxia falls before them, there will be countless resources and territories waiting for them to carve up.

But in the original plot, despite the situation being precarious, Daxia still stands firm, and its deep secrets are enough to make it proud of the world and the holy land of immortals, just sit back and watch the thunder and lightning dry up.

At that stage, many lucky people emerged, and to him, they were all green leeks.

I haven’t been doing much lately, and the plot is a bit boring and bland. I’m going to finish it off and have time to make up the number of words.
