Venerable Yuan

The Great Zhou Dynasty, the royal palace hall.

In the main hall, Zhou Qing was sitting on the dragon throne. Below that, there were many civil servants and generals of Zhou Dynasty. At this time, the whole hall was filled with a kind of tension.

The source of the tense atmosphere was a previous urgent report. According to spies, there had been great commotion in the Dawu Dynasty recently, and many troops began to gather from various places on the border with Dazhou.

The spirit of war emanates.

In the past two years, the Dawu Dynasty gave up its previous expansion in other directions, and instead stepped up its surveillance of the Great Zhou Dynasty. There were frequent frictions at the border.

This made everyone know that the Dawu Dynasty had the intention to launch an army against Dazhou.

After two years of preparation, the Dawu Dynasty seems to be taking action.

Everyone in the hall, including Zhou Qing, looked solemn. Although Da Zhou's strength had improved in recent years, they were undoubtedly at a disadvantage compared to the Da Wu Dynasty.

And the most important thing is that King Wu is a strong man in the Divine Palace realm.

On the battlefield, the effect that a powerful person in the Divine Palace realm can achieve is undoubtedly decisive.

Today, Zhou Qing's strength has recovered somewhat, but he is only in the eighth level of Taichu Realm, and there is still a huge gap between him and King Wu.

Zhou Qing's heart was heavy, but it didn't show on his face. He looked down. At the head of the generals was General Wei Canglan. In the past two years, Wei Canglan's strength had also risen to the seventh level of Taichu Realm.

"General, since Da Wu has the intention to invade, I, Da Zhou, must take precautions." Zhou Qing said in a deep voice.

Wei Canglan clasped his fists solemnly and accepted the order, saying: "My subordinates rushed to the border immediately and were ready to prepare."

But there was some worry in his eyes. After all, Dawu was too powerful. Even if their Dazhou strength had increased dramatically over the years, they might not be able to defeat him.

He turned his head and looked at the slender girl behind him. The woman with the slender and straight legs was none other than Wei Qingqing.

She also noticed the worry in Wei Canglan's eyes, and could only sigh softly in her heart.

"Your Majesty, this force is so powerful that if we fight head-on, it won't be of much benefit to us." At this time, a voice sounded. Wei Canglan looked and saw that the speaker was wearing a black robe, and it was the Black Poison King. .

At this time, the Black Poison King also looked a little bitter. He was captured by Zhou Yuan and made a divine soul covenant, so he had to be controlled by others. However, in the past two years, he had been living comfortably in Dazhou, but now Dawu suddenly had an attack. In my heart, if this comes into force, I'm afraid the good days will come to an end.

After all, the Black Poison King is very aware of Da Wu's power. The Martial King in the Divine Palace Realm alone is difficult to resist and is enough to influence the situation of the battle.

Zhou Qing glanced at him lightly and said, "Then do you want me, Da Zhou, to surrender?"

The Black Poison King smiled awkwardly. How could he not know the hatred between Zhou Qing and King Wu? It was impossible to adjust, so he could only sigh sadly in his heart.

Although the Black Poison King did not speak anymore, his lack of confidence affected many people, and the hall immediately became even more depressing.

Seeing this scene, Zhou Qing felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart. Over the years, he had tried his best to increase the strength of Da Zhou. Some of the puppets he unearthed from the black abyss also became their last resort in Da Zhou's fight against Da Wu. trump cards, but can they really stop the Martial King in the Divine Palace Realm with these?

"Report!"

And in this dull atmosphere, suddenly an urgent message came again.

A soldier quickly rushed into the hall, knelt down on one knee, with a flushed face, and said: "Report to the King, Eagle Pavilion previously received intelligence from the Holy Continent."

"Shengzhou Continent?" Zhou Qing was stunned. He naturally knew the Shengzhou Continent. Unlike remote places like the Cangwu Continent, it was the center of the entire Cang Xuantian.

However, the Cangwu Continent is extremely far away from the Shengzhou Continent. In the past, Zhou Qing had no intention of paying attention to the intelligence there. But since Zhou Yuan left the Great Zhou Dynasty and entered the Cangxuan Sect, he has tried his best to make the intelligence department spend a lot of money. It costs a lot to occasionally collect information about the Holy Continent.

Thinking of this, Zhou Qing's heart suddenly moved: "Is there any news about Yuan'er?"

There was a surge of excitement in his heart. It had been two years since Zhou Yuan went to Cangxuan Sect. In these two years, he had not received any information, and he did not know how the child was doing now.

I heard that there are so many geniuses in Cangxuan Sect, is Yuan'er living well there?

"explain."

"Your Majesty, we have just received news related to His Highness!" the soldier said quickly.

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the hall suddenly looked at him in surprise.

Wei Canglan and Wei Qingqing looked at the soldier first, and then looked at each other, a little surprised. It was said that His Highness went to Cangxuan Sect to practice, but there was no news at all in the past two years. Unexpectedly, there was finally a response.

"His Royal Highness Zhou Yuan was also a genius at the beginning, but the Cangxuan Sect was a giant sect that gathered many geniuses from the continent. His Highness Zhou Yuan was among them. I wonder how it is now? Is it still the same as it was back then on the vast continent? Outstanding?" Wei Canglan thought in his mind.

But immediately, he shook his head slightly. The vast continent is too small. Being able to stand out here does not mean that he can still be outstanding in giant sects like Cangxuan Sect.

When the Black Poison King heard the word "Your Highness," his expression was a little complicated. If it hadn't been for the latter, I'm afraid he would still be at ease in the black abyss.

"There hasn't been any news about this guy for two years. I'm afraid he's not doing well in the Cangxuan Sect, right?" The Black Poison King was controlled by Zhou Yuan's soul. Although he didn't dare to show it on weekdays, he obviously still had a trace of resentment in his heart.

"Your Majesty, the news is that there was a Xuanyuan Cave in the Shengzhou Continent, and countless geniuses from the entire Cangxuantian were involved in it, including the Cangxuan Sect, the Holy Palace and other giant sects."

"And this time, His Highness Zhou Yuan came out of the Xuanyuan Cave and killed the three Holy Sons of the Holy Palace, shocking the Holy State!"

"After returning to the sect, His Highness was also promoted to the Holy Son of Cangxuan Sect, ranking second!" The soldier said quickly with an excited expression.

When he finished speaking, the entire hall fell silent.

Even Zhou Qing couldn't keep his composure and couldn't help but open his mouth. Although the vast continent was extremely remote, they still knew that it was said that among the powerful sects in the Holy Continent, there were only the most elite and outstanding disciples. Only then could he be called the Holy Son.

The strength of every Saint Son has reached the ninth level of Taichu Realm!

Moreover, the Origin Qi foundation of those Holy Sons is not comparable to those in the Absolute Beginning Realm.

And now, the news actually says that Zhou Yuan killed three saint sons of the ninth level of the Taichu Realm in the Xuanyuan Cave? And now he has become the second-ranked holy son of Cangxuan Sect? !

Wei Canglan looked shocked. He looked at Wei Qingqing. At this time, the latter also had his red lips slightly opened and his beautiful eyes widened.

That young man, Your Highness, has now become the Holy Son of Cangxuan Sect? Doesn't that mean that his current strength is comparable to the ninth level of Taichu Realm? !

And when Zhou Yuan left Dawu, it seemed that he was only in the Tianguan realm, right?

The Black Poison King was also stunned. After a while, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

In the main hall, many ministers were shocked for a long time, and finally came to their senses and came forward to congratulate him.

"Ha ha!"

Zhou Qing stood up and laughed. The heaviness caused by Dawu was swept away at this moment. His face glowed red and he said: "My Zhou family's Holy Dragon is indeed not inferior to any genius!"

"General, please take your orders. I, Da Zhou, will fight Da Wu to the end even if I spend everything I have!"

Wei Canglan clasped his fists again, and then turned around and left with Wei Qingqing. However, when they left, their steps became much more steady, and their morale was obviously greatly improved.

They all knew what Zhou Qing meant, which was to use Da Zhou's power to hold Da Wu back as much as possible.

Because Zhou Yuan still needs time.

Now, he should not be very far away from contending with the Divine Palace Realm. As long as they can buy some time for him, it is still unclear who will win and who will lose between Da Zhou and Da Wu in the future!

If they could not see any hope in the previous confrontation between Da Zhou and Da Wu, then the news from Zhou Yuan gave them a glimmer of hope.

Zhou Qing looked at Wei Canglan's leaving figure and let out a long breath, then raised his head, looked into the distance, and clenched his hands.

Yuan'er, you can practice in Cangxuan Sect with peace of mind.

Father will do everything he can to buy more time for you!

Father is waiting for you, the day you return after successful cultivation!

The whole week, I have been waiting for that day!
