Except for a few people, no one knew what Buhua and Yan Mo had agreed on.
On that day, Buhua showed his sincerity—he had no choice but to do so. He found the black-horned hidden soldiers under someone's escort, and then returned to the city under someone's escort.
When Buhua and his father talked alone, Yan Mo appeared in the secret room of the Morton Mansion that night and had a secret talk with the Duke of Morton.
The Duke of Morton was not surprised to see Yan Mo appear because of his son's warning in advance. In fact, what he didn't tell his son was that he secretly grabbed those hornless men to keep them behind. Prudence and wanting to pry into the secrets of the Devil's Abyss and use them, and now this prudence has become his lifesaver.
The Duke of Morton was unwilling to sign a contract with Yan Mo to leave an excuse, and Yan Mo did not force it.
In the end, the two sides agreed that Yan Mo would help the Black-horn tribe to solve the obstacle for Morton to ascend to the throne. After all, the next round of the throne should be the Black-horn tribe, and the Black-horn tribe has more or less righteousness.
And Morton promised to stop his aggression against the Eastern Continent once he ascended the throne, and to guarantee fifty years of peace between the Eastern and Western Continents.
Yan Mo claimed that during the period, he would use the magic warriors and hornless people from the Western Continent to deal with the red-horned people, so that the black-horned people would turn a blind eye to any activities of the hornless people, and would not take the initiative to attack the hornless people.
Although Morton was worried that this would cause harm to the Hornless people, the current situation was that if he didn't use other powers, the Black Horn Clan might be completely suppressed by the Red Horn Clan as a subordinate race in the future, so he agreed after careful consideration.
The next day, Xingliu and the others were released, and when they saw Yan Mo standing in front of them, they all lowered their heads in embarrassment. He who had let them out had told him that they had been redeemed at a great price.
Yan Mo didn't talk nonsense with them, and let Xi Yang take charge of talking to them.
Although Xingliu and the others don't have much experience, after listening to Xiyang's narration, they also know that the current situation can be said to be the best opportunity for thousands of years for the Hornless people of Devil's Abyss!
Xingliu and the others split half of their staff to fly back to the Devil's Abyss on the bone bird provided by the Baijiao tribe. They will go back and persuade the abyss masters to take the initiative to fight for the interests of the Hornless people.
Shen Zimo has already said: those who save themselves, people will always save them. Don't expect God and others to reach out to help you if you don't work hard on your own.
On the night they went to see Duke Morton, Yan Mo and Yuan Zhan went to see Yuan Zhou again.
In order to prevent Jiufeng from helping Wujiaoren, Yuanzhou kept Jiufeng by his side in the name of teaching the chicks, and found many things for Jiufeng.
Because of Yuanzhou, Yan Mo didn't expect Jiufeng to come out to help them, but he hadn't seen him for a few days, so he had to see Jiufeng to be at ease, and he still had something to discuss with that Master Yuanzhou.
Jiufeng had a very good life in Yuanzhou, and he couldn't think of leaving the whole time. Yuanzhou found a lot of toys and food suitable for human-faced Kunpeng young birds. Yuanzhou is also interesting, because he prevented Jiufeng from helping Wujiaoren, and to ensure fairness, he also claimed that he would not be sick.
However, the current situation of the Red Horn Clan does not need him. The existence of Yuanzhou is a bit like the last trump card. He is only responsible for protecting the safety of the three cities and the king city. That is, as long as the enemy does not invade the three cities and the king city, he will You can not show up.
For example, the last time the original battle was too violent in Xuanyu City, the city lord's mansion, he brought bone soldiers out to intimidate, but now that there is civil strife in the three cities, he is not needed until no one demolishes the city and declares to occupy the city.
King Neil wanted to use Yuanzhou, but Yuanzhou claimed that he would not be sick, so he had no choice. And even if King Neil was dissatisfied with Yuanzhou, he would not choose now if he wanted to change people temporarily, not to mention that Hu Lian had already told him not to provoke Yuanzhou easily unless necessary.
King Neil asked Hu Lian the reason, but Hu Lian only told him that Yuanzhou was very powerful.
As soon as Jiu Feng saw Yan Mo, he stuffed the good things he got from Yuan Zhou these days into Yan Mo's arms, and the corners of Yuan Zhou's eyes twitched.
Yan Mo smiled: "That King Neil and High Priest Hu Lian let you hide at home like this?"
Yuanzhou saw that one was being generous and the other was receiving smoothly, and suddenly felt itchy, "As long as you don't demolish the city, I don't have to show up."
Yuan Zhou faintly nodded to the two of them.
Yan Mo and Yuan Zhan understood each other instantly, and Yan Mo smiled even more cheerfully, "Don't worry, the city will never be demolished, so you can continue to take care of the children at home. I don't intend to just wipe out the horned tribe, as long as they are forced to be powerless It’s good to invade other people’s territory.”
Yuan Zhou: "... They have been at ease for too long, and the Western Continent has no race that threatens them. Many nobles and high-ranking fighters are arrogant and domineering. It happens that the three clans have conflicts. Otherwise, how could you make trouble so easily? .”
Yan Mo admitted: "For any force, it is easier to destroy it from the inside than from the outside, but if there are no gaps in the horned tribe, I don't think it will be destroyed. It can only be said that the right time, place and people are on my side. Here?"
Yuanzhou was overthrown by Yan Mo's brazenness. Although the internal conflicts of the horned tribe are a big problem, it will take decades or even hundreds of years for these conflicts to erupt before these two people come here. The Horned Clan can attack the Lower Eastern Continent, so the huge benefits can bury this conflict deeper, delay the outbreak of the three clans longer, or even eliminate or sublimate them directly.
"Well, I admit that the strength of the two of you is also one of the important reasons for the current situation." Yuanzhou asked the two, "How long are you going to stay in the Western Continent?"
Yan Mo raised his eyebrows, "What? You want us to leave early? But we promised the hornless people here to help them build up their power, and there are quite a few people going back with us. Only a fast ship or a bone bird can come out, after all, crossing the ocean is too dangerous and the journey is too long, so it’s impossible not to be fully prepared.”
"Then how did you get here?" Yuan Zhou was not fooled.
Yan Mo replied cunningly: "Azhan and I naturally have a way to go back and forth quickly, but this time we have to bring a lot of people back, so the method is different."
Yuan Zhou hehe.
Seeing that he refused to bite the bait, Yan Mo had no choice but to throw out his purpose: "I heard that your human-faced Kunpeng's territory is located in the center of the ocean. If we can borrow from you... our requirements for ships and bone birds can be satisfied. Much lower."
"Don't even think about it!" Yuan Zhou threw out two words unceremoniously.
Yan Mo shrugged, "Then there is no other way, it seems that I can only stay in the Western Continent, wait for the forces of the Hornless People to stabilize completely, and wait for them to refine new ships and bone birds before thinking about going back. .That's good too, with sturdy and safe vehicles, it will be easier for the two continents to travel in the future."
Yuan Zhou laughed angrily, "Do you still want to travel between the two continents for a long time?"
Yan Mo asked back, "Why not?"
Yuan Zhan said suddenly, "In the future, when Mo goes back to the Eastern Continent, I will stay here. Jiufeng will also go back with Mo, and then ask him to help bring a few blood warriors above level 10. There must be no horned people running away." To invade our Eastern Continent, and our Eastern Continent did not respond at all."
Yan Mo touched Jiu Feng's head and kissed him, "You will help, right?"
Jiu Feng was so dazed by the kiss, "Of course I will help you, Momo, how many people do you want to bring?"
Yan Mo calculated with a serious face, "Is ten okay?"
Jiufeng patted his chest, "No problem!"
"Hey, you guys...!" Yuanzhou couldn't beat or scold this fledgling bird. The number of human-faced kunpeng is small and the degree of freedom is great. As long as they don't directly lead intelligent creatures to wage large-scale wars, No one will take care of it, let alone Jiufeng is still a baby bird and only transports a few people.
Yuan Zhou glanced at Yuan Zhan, seeing that his expression did not look like he was joking. After a long silence, he said, "If I agree to help you and let you go back this time via the Kunpeng Continent, can you promise me that you will not go back for at least twenty years?" Sending blood warriors over? You two are not allowed to come again?"
Yuan Zhan looked at Yan Mo, who nodded.
Yuan Zhan, "Okay. If the Horned Clan doesn't target our Eastern Continent anymore, we won't take the initiative to make trouble."
Looking at the status quo of the horned tribe, Yuan Zhou didn't think they would have the strength to invade other people's territories in the next twenty years, so he made such an agreement with the two.
After having a preliminary intention, Yan Mo took over the Huatou and Yuan Zhou to finalize the matter, and then agreed on a time to go back. Before leaving, Yan Mo asked suddenly, seemingly casually: "Apart from your partner, are there any horned people?" Does anyone else know the identity of your human-faced Kunpeng?"
Yuan Zhou didn't know why he asked this, but he still answered: "High Priest Hu Lian may know a little bit, but he's not sure."
"Oh? Why are you not sure?"
Yuanzhou thought for a while, and felt that there was nothing to say, so he said: "He once noticed that I was different and suspected that I had the ability of divine blood, and he seemed to be very interested in magic warriors with special abilities. I want to. As far as I know, he secretly kept a lot of high-level magic warriors around him. He tried me at the beginning, probably because he wanted to arrest me, but I fought back. After that, I warned him that he would not mess with me , I will not trouble him either, he probably knows that I just want to stay with my partner, staying is also good for their horned people, so he didn't come to provoke me again, and handed over the bone soldiers to me."
"So he knows you are a blood warrior, but he doesn't know that you are a human-faced Kunpeng clan?" Yan Mo asked.
"Well, he probably thought I was a hybrid of the horned race and some kind of intelligent creature. This kind of hybrid is very rare, but it's not uncommon."
Yan Mo asked some more about Hu Lian, some of them were willing to tell, but some were not. After Yan Mo listened, he felt that Yuanzhou didn't seem to know about Hu Lian's abnormal soul, and it seemed that he had to discover the secret of Hu Lian himself.
Seeing that Yan Mo cared so much about the red-horned priest, Yuan Zhan felt bad, and his dislike for Hu Lian deepened.
Seeing Yan Mo and the two leaving, Jiu Feng also wanted to go with them, but was held back by Yuan Zhou.
Yan Mo also comforted Jiu Feng, telling him to stay here to play first, and ask him to go with him when he was about to leave, and then whispered to Jiu Feng in front of Yuan Zhou: "Master the great mountain god, look here If there are any good things, get all you can get, and we will take them back to Jiuyuan!"
The little bird Jiufeng had been taught badly by the two of them long ago, and he laughed strangely when he heard the words. He saw that Yuan Zhan would get a lot of spoils after every battle, and he was jealous for a long time. Grab a bunch of loot!
Yuan Zhou suddenly felt a little cold in his vest.
After returning from Yuanzhou, Yan Mo and Yuan Zhan were worried about the situation in Jiuyuan. Seeing that the old man He who was sent back was in good spirits, they let him rest for a night and started to light a fire to contact Jiuyuan.
Jiuyuan has been very worried for a long time. After the agreement was made, they would contact each other once every ten days. They also made an appointment because of the time difference. Worry is broken. For this reason, they arranged several fire worshipers to keep guarding in front of the fire in turn, for fear of missing it.
As for Jiuyuan, when he saw the change in the fire, he immediately sent someone to call for the principals.
Jiong, Wu Chen and the others arrived at the fastest speed.
"My lord leader! My lord priest!" Although they couldn't talk to each other directly, just knowing that each other was fine was enough to make Jiuyuan people ecstatic.
Because the old man He and the Fire Worshipers on the opposite side don't know Jiuyuan's square characters yet, both Yan Mo and Jiuyuan need to tell them their questions and answers, and the two Fire Worshipers will use their own contact information to translate.
Because the characters of the Fire Worship Clan have limited symbols and things that can be explained are limited, Yan Mo and Yuan Zhan only confirmed a few things in the end.
First, Jiuyuan is currently considered safe.
Second, the nine upper cities, headed by Wucheng, unite Jiuyuan, Dingyue, Zerg, Beast, Shui, Winged and Longevity Wood, etc. to jointly resist the aggression of the horned tribe. Jiuyuan sent two teams to support this, led by Shen Gu and Da Da respectively.
Thirdly, the Dingyue clan gained the limelight in resisting the aggression of the horned clan because of their metal weapons.
Fourth, during the war, the two princesses unexpectedly shined brilliantly. One is Ramona, the eldest princess of Sound City. This eldest princess can achieve certain effects by singing certain special songs. After using the trumpet bone tool "invented" by Yan Mo, the effect of group attacks is particularly good .
There is another one that no one has thought of, that is Miaoxiang, the princess of Tucheng. Her ability can infect other people's emotions, and she seems to have obtained a special item that can amplify her ability, so that she does not have to worry about it anymore. By disabling the creatures, she can directly use her abilities. In this way, she has nothing to do with the bone soldiers, but those bone slaves and horned men controlled by the bones will be more or less affected by her emotions, and various situations will appear in the battle.
What's more interesting is that this young princess who grew up in a deep boudoir has gradually demonstrated her ability to lead troops and rule. Because Tucheng was annexed by Jiuyuan Ban, this princess got a group of people called 魑These gray-green dwarves are very cruel. Under the leadership of the princess and Tucheng's new high priest, She Dan, they forcibly took half of Tucheng's power from Jiuyuan's mouth.
And just when Jiuyuan and other Shangcheng were planning to deal with her, the princess wisely stopped the momentum and led her men and other races to fight against the Horned Race.
In short, many people gathered around the two princesses, the power of the nine upper cities was no longer obvious, and several upper cities began to show signs of merger or annexation.
Yan Mo and Yuan Zhan did not comment on this, and only told Jiu Yuan: First, let them be careful of the sneak attack of the horned tribe; second, let them not snatch new territories for the time being, tighten up first, don't accept any provocations, do things in a low-key manner, and wait for everything They go back and talk about it; the third one shows that they can rush back to Jiuyuan in 45 days at the earliest, and 90 days at the latest.
The old man He went to sleep tiredly.
Yan Mo stared at the fire and remained silent for a long time, he regretted that he indulged Princess Miaoxiang.
"What are you worried about?" Yuan Zhan sat down beside him.
"Miaoxiang. I'm very surprised where she found the Chi family, and she can make those little monsters work for her. What's even more strange is her ability to lead troops and rule. It doesn't look like that little girl can do it. things." Yan Mo even suspected that Miao Xiang was pierced by a human soul.
"Maybe it's because of the snake gall?" Yuan Zhan was a little wary of the snake gall, and the man was able to escape from his volcanic cage. This alone was enough for Yuan Zhan to regard him as an enemy.
"Maybe. But I always feel that something is wrong." Yan Mo thought of the Yuanji old priest who was completely burned by him back then. Is the soul that replaced the old priest really dead? Will it be...
Yan Mo told Yuan Zhan about his doubts, and Yuan Zhan didn't worry anymore when he figured it out, "Do you suspect that Miao Xiang was taken over by that soul back then?"
"Yes. I remember that the bearded man led a group of Chi tribesmen at that time, and now Miaoxiang also has such a group. I don't believe there is such a coincidence in the world."
Yuan Zhan said flatly and domineeringly: "So what if it's that person? If we can kill him once, we can kill him a second time. If he just wants to get a piece of land to live on, we don't need to pay attention to him. If you want to provoke us Jiuyuan, we'll just kill him again."
