Zhendongcheng!

At dawn, twenty cranes hurried back. Although the officials on the city tower could not hear the sounds in the distance, they witnessed the passing of the Dongfang Palace with their own eyes. Many people stood up in silence.

Taiwei Pang and Jiang Zishan didn't say anything more and went back to their homes.

City Lord's Mansion.

"Bang!"

Taiwei Pang's palm, which he had suppressed for a long time, suddenly hit a desk.

A group of subordinates were trembling and did not dare to say anything.

"Who is in charge of the news about the Tomb Mountain?" Pang Taiwei stared at his subordinates.

"Lieutenant, the spies from Shen Tomb Mountain haven't sent any news yet, and we don't know either!" A subordinate said with a bitter look on his face.

Captain Pang stared at the official: "You don't know either? It's been a few days since Wang Zhong came back, and your people haven't come back yet? What do I need you for?"

"Plop!"

The subordinate knelt on the ground in horror: "Your Majesty, please forgive me. I have neglected my duty. My Majesty, please forgive me!"

"Hmph, give me another chance to find out everything that happened in the Tomb of the Gods. If I miss anything, I will skin you!" Pang Taiwei glared.

"Yes, yes!" the official shouted in horror.

"Who is in charge of the Dongfang Palace affairs?" Pang Taiwei said coldly.

"T-Lieutenant!" Another official stood up with his heart pounding.

Captain Pang stared at the official: "Wang Zhongquan came back to prepare the altar. Why didn't you report it to me, ah~~?"

"Captain, Commander, forgive me. At that time, everyone knew that Wang Zhongquan was preparing a funeral for Wang Xiong. No one could explain the details of the funeral. No one knew about it. I, I didn't expect it either!" The official knelt down. , shouted with a depressed look.

Taiwei Pang stared at the official, knowing that he could not blame him. After all, he thought so too at the beginning.

"I don't care what means you use. Before it gets dark, I want to know everything that happened last night and what everyone said. I want to know in detail. Otherwise, you won't be able to wear this skin anymore!" Taiwei Pang said coldly.

"Yes!" The official responded regardless of his words.

"Get out, get out, get out!" Pang Taiwei explained everything and said extremely irritably.

All the subordinates did not dare to say anything and retreated one after another.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

After everyone exited, they heard the sound of breaking porcelain coming from the study.

Anger was burning not only in Taiwei Pang's house, but also in Jiang Zishan's house.

Jiang Zishan suffered heavy losses this time. He had twenty-two Wuzong realms and even two Wuzong realms. This loss destroyed Jiang Zishan's many years of accumulation.

"Wang Xiong!" Jiang Zishan said with a serious look on his face.

"Sir, do you need to report to the prince?" A subordinate asked with a complicated expression.

Jiang Zishan narrowed his eyes slightly: "Wang Xiong has inherited the throne of the East, and the true god has announced it to the world. My father should have already known it. We messed up the matter this time, how should we report it? Wait and see if there are any other opportunities!"

"Yes, sir!"

"Sir, what should I do with their bodies?" Another subordinate frowned.

Twenty-two Wuzong realm, this is Jiang Zishan's confidant. Now even the body is not coming back

"You go to negotiate with Wang Tiance and say that we want to recover the body. After all, the Eastern Palace is just a shabby settlement and cannot be compared to my Northern Palace. You go!" Jiang Zishan said solemnly.

"yes!"

"In addition, I want to know everything about last night, and what happened in the Tomb Mountain of the Gods. Why has Wang Xiong changed so much in a short period of time?" Another subordinate of Jiang Zishan said.

"yes!"

----------

Baizi desert east.

In a vast military camp, there are patrol teams, well-equipped and heavily guarded. In the military camp, a large flag was erected with a big word 'left' on it.

But it was the military camp of Zuo Baifeng, the flag commander of Chilian Holy Land.

In the large tent of the Chinese army, seventeenth flag masters were already waiting for them.

Directly to the north sat a thin, middle-aged man like a scholar. There were a group of followers beside the man, one of whom wore a yellow iron mask.

Everyone looked at the person in the center of the tent, who was the Red Ghost Flag Master who had escaped from the Dongfang Palace.

There are a large number of arrow feathers stuck on the back of the Red Ghost Flag Master. Kneeling on the ground, looking annoyed.

"Flag Commander, everything my disciple said is true, and there is absolutely no lie. Then Wang Tianming is a bastard, bastard! Of all my subordinates, not one of them escaped!" said the Red Ghost Flag Master with a sad look on his face. .

The banner owners of the seventeenth route all around looked at the middle-aged scholar with frowns.

But it's because this middle-aged scholar is the supreme commander of the military camp, the flag commander, Zuo Baifeng!

Zuo Baifeng squinted at the kneeling Red Ghost Flag Master. Zuo Baifeng knew that the Red Ghost Flag Master did not dare to lie. But just because he didn't dare to lie, everything that happened in Dongfang Prince's Mansion was unbelievable.

"Wang Xiong? That puppet? They were all pretending before? Mr. Iron Mask, what do you think?" Zuo Baifeng looked at the man wearing a yellow iron mask.

All the flag commanders looked at Mr. Iron Mask in confusion. All the flag masters knew that Mr. Iron Face was the flag commander's strategist. Although he does not hold a position in the military, his status is extremely high.

Mr. Ironface held a folding fan in his hand and gently squeezed the fan bone, as if he was also thinking.

"Wang Xiong? I once went to see him in Dongfang Prince's Mansion. He was indeed dull. However, it is impossible for the Red Ghost Flag Master to lie. But Wang Xiong was beyond my expectation!" Mr. Ironface said silently.

"It's unexpected. Mr. Ironface said that Wang Xiong will die in the Tomb Mountain of the Gods. When Wang Xiong dies, it will be the best time for us to send troops to the eastern fiefdom. But, Wang Xiong is still alive, what should we do now?" Zuo Baifeng frowned.

Mr. Ironface was silent for a while.

There was also silence in the big tent.

"The Art of War says that only by knowing oneself and the enemy can one be victorious in every battle. Now, we know nothing about the Dongfang Palace and we know nothing about Wang Xiong. Let's wait for now!" Mr. Ironface said solemnly.

"We can't wait any longer, Mr. Ironface. Even if the news comes last night that Wang Xiong has inherited the Eastern throne, so what? The Eastern fiefdom is in disarray, and it's a good time to send troops. If we wait, Wang Xiong will unite the fiefdom's power, and when the time comes, If we send out troops at this time, it will be too late!" A flag leader frowned.

"Yes, Mr. Ironface, the eastern fiefdom has begun to change. If we don't move now, when will we wait?"

"Commander Flag, don't you want revenge? Avenge your previous shame. Now is a good time. Kill Wang Xiong and everything will be solved!"

… … … … …

… … … …

… …

All the flag owners shouted.

Zuo Baifeng seemed to have a heartbeat.

Mr. Ironface shook his head: "The internal conflicts in the Eastern Fiefdom are extremely complicated. Now is really not a good time. Wang Xiong's succession and the Human Emperor's resumption of power will intensify the conflicts between the two sides. If we send troops, they will definitely be We share the same hatred with the enemy, that’s not good news. We struggled to fight, but it gave them an advantage. Wouldn’t it be better to wait a little longer, let them fight internally while we don’t move, and we reap the benefits?”

"But...!" Everyone was unwilling for a while.

Zuo Baifeng fell into deep thought.

"Commander Flag, we know nothing about Wang Xiong now. If Wang Xiong's change is because he is deliberately pretending to be stupid, then he has deceived me as well. Can you imagine that after he has been pretending to be stupid for so many years, he will not make any preparations? ?" Mr. Ironface said solemnly.

"Commander Flag, do you still remember that time seventeen years ago? You just underestimated Dongfang Wangfu, so how did it end tragically? Wang Hong is dead, will this Wang Xiong be another Wang Hong?" Mr. Ironface said again.

Zuo Baifeng's pupils suddenly shrank.

How could Zuo Baifeng forget that seventeen years ago, Wang Hong, including himself, and the three banner commanders were all repulsed by Wang Hong, and even killed two other senior brothers. If Wang Hong hadn't been in a hurry to return home, maybe he would have...!

"We need time, time to wait for Wang Xiong and Captain Pang to fall out, time to check everything about Wang Xiong, and time to find the opportunity to kill Wang Xiong!" Mr. Ironface said solemnly.

Zuo Baifeng thought for a while and finally nodded: "Okay, I'll bother you sir!"

"Don't worry, Flag Commander. I know best about the Great Qin Kingdom. After all, I have been in the Great Qin Kingdom for decades. I will find an opportunity!" Mr. Ironface nodded.

Zuo Baifeng could only nod.

----------

It's evening.

Everything that happened in Wangfukou last night, including Wang Xiong's conversation, has been gradually collected into the hands of Taiwei Pang, Jiang Zishan, and Mr. Tiemian.

Seeing what happened last night, almost everyone was shocked.

Wang Xiong, alone, actually dominated the audience

In the Zuobaifeng camp.

"Wang Xiong? This is no longer the Wang Xiong I know. In a short period of time, he can actually change people's hearts and conquer everything? Good means, good means. This person's cultivation is secretive. Martial Saint? Impossible. He must be an innate soul. He is very powerful, so he can attack other people's souls. This guy is too dangerous and must be eliminated as soon as possible!" Mr. Ironface said coldly.

"There are indeed means, but Wang Tiance is guarding him. If you want to get rid of him, you need to think long and hard!" Zuo Baifeng frowned.

"No, this method is too terrible. The Eastern Fiefdom will inevitably rise because of him in the near future. He must be destroyed at all costs. Flag Commander, you heard me right. He must be destroyed at all costs. Otherwise, I It is absolutely impossible for Chilian Holy Land to move westward!" Mr. Ironface said firmly.

"Ah?" Zuo Baifeng looked surprised.

--------

In the mansion of Taiwei Pang.

Listening to his subordinate's report, Taiwei Pang also took a breath of cold air.

"Wang Xiong? This man has changed too much, so he resorted to such means?" Pang Taiwei's eyes were filled with uncertainty.

"Lieutenant, Wang Xiong is so capable, what should we do? He is a genius. One day, the Eastern Fiefdom may...!" the official who came to report said anxiously.

Taiwei Pang narrowed his eyes slightly and said: "Genius? There are many geniuses who have not grown up. Moreover, among those geniuses who have fallen, there are many who are better than Wang Xiong!"

"Ah?" The official was slightly startled.

"Immediately, send the news to the capital of God and ask the Human Emperor to make a decision. No, I will write the memorial myself and send it to the capital of God as quickly as possible!" Pang Taiwei said solemnly.

"yes!"

----------

At Jiang Zishan's house.

When Jiang Zishan heard the news, he was silent for a while.

"Sir, what should we do now?" a subordinate asked with a frown.

Jiang Zishan's eyelids twitched wildly: "Wang Xiong? We can't let him grow up anymore, otherwise...!"

"Then what do we do?"

Jiang Zishan was silent for a moment and said: "This has exceeded our expectations. I will write a handwritten copy immediately and give it to my father immediately!"

"yes!"

--------

The Eastern Palace.

After Wang Xiong succeeded to the throne, the entire palace revolved around Wang Xiong. Of course, Wang Xiong had limited knowledge of everything in the palace and did not issue many orders.

But see more, listen more, and talk less. Constantly understand the situation of the palace and the situation of the fiefdom.

Dongfang Palace is located on the oasis of Baizi Desert.

Inside the palace, there is a small lake. There is a small island in the center of the lake, which was where my father Wang Hong used to live and work.

Now that Wang Xiong has inherited the throne, Wang Zhongquan is also constantly moving Wang Xiong's daily belongings to the residence of the head of the Huxin family.

"Island in the middle of the lake, Baishui Pavilion? Haha, the name my father gave me back then is really strange!" Wang Xiong stood by the small lake and laughed.

There is a person standing behind Wang Xiong, Wang Tiance.

"Baishui Pavilion, we can't guess the meaning either!" Wang Tiance shook his head and said with a bitter smile.

"Wang Tiance, there are only you and me by the lake now. I know that you are not convinced, and you must have questions. I will give you a chance to ask! However, after today, I will not explain anything to you. Come on!" Wang Xiong looked at Wang Tiance and said.

Wang Tiance frowned slightly, with a complicated look on his face.
