Night falls.
The bright moon hangs high, and the scales of Jinting Lake are twinkling. Only a few fishing boats docked on the shore are still glowing with lights.
A small boat was floating on the lake at this time, moving automatically without wind, which was a strange sight.
On the boat, there was another girl, wearing only tulle. She looked beautiful, but her face was cold, not like a mortal.
"Since I'm here in person, why would Mr. Long be stingy about seeing me?"
When she reached a deserted place, the woman sighed softly, her voice sounding like ice jade clashing.
"Demon Saint Empress, you are the leader of the demon clan on land in the Chu Kingdom. Why are you here?"
At the bottom of the lake, a black shadow appeared, golden waves rippled, and the figure of Jinting Longjun appeared. He came to the boat and sat opposite the Demon Saint Empress.
Long Jun was silent for a long time before he asked.
"Do you really not know? Or are you just pretending to be like this..."
The bright moon and lights were reflected in the eyes of the Demon Saint Empress, and she said in a cold and emotionless voice: "God's will is like a knife! Even if my Demon Clan has dominated for eternity, I can only walk on thin ice at this time to fight for a slim chance of survival! I have already We even gave up our favorite granddaughters. Otherwise, how could there be chaos in Chu? What about Wang Qiao's death?"
"Sigh... Since ancient times, God's will has always been high. Why should I bother myself? Even though my demon clan is declining, we may not be able to continue to live in the vast swamps and deep mountains outside the four seas and continue to live in a paradise!"
Jinting Longjun sighed.
"You have indeed become a human god, and you no longer have any of the love and affection you had before!"
The Demon Saint Empress sneered: "Why do humans want to be the protagonists in this world, and we, the demon tribe, can only rely on others? Before... I saw you letting that little carp get close to Qianlong, and I thought you were doing it for my demon tribe, but after waiting for three days... Years later, I realized that you were all blinded by your anger, and you were willing to degenerate!"
Between words, the divine golden body of Jinting Longjun cannot be concealed at all.
Even every move of the Xu family was not missed.
It was only because he was worried about Lord Long's arrangements, or simply because Chu Du was involved in his efforts, that he didn't take any action. At this time, he was extremely disappointed.
As for Li Luan, even if he abandoned his demon body and cultivation and reincarnated as a human being, Xu Ting would still abandon him as if he were wearing worn out shoes.
From this point of view, even if the demon clan abandons their martial arts and submits to compromise, there will definitely be no good end.
After all, if you are not of my race, your heart must be different!
Jinting Longjun was silent. They were all powerful among the demon clan, and they were wise and knowledgeable. Some words could be understood by each other even without saying them.
Li Luan's closeness to the dragon spirit was actually part of his temptation.
However, by marrying another wife and neglecting her, Xu Ting undoubtedly lost a lot of his energy, especially his connection with the demon clan.
"But God's will is like this, what can I do?"
After a long time, it finally spoke: "Even if Xu Ting fails to succeed and is defeated and dies, there will still be a true dragon in the human race that will rise with great fortune! Its power will be even stronger!"
"That's why I laid out my plans for the world. On the one hand, I created chaos, and on the other hand, I besieged and killed Qianlong. Our demon clan has few people, so we must reduce the number of people from this human clan!"
The Demon Saint Empress said indifferently: "Originally, Wang Qiao and the previous Emperor of Chu were both very powerful people. Now that they are dead and their clans are destroyed, their luck has dispersed, and it is difficult for the world to be unified quickly, it will be more beneficial to us!"
"It seems that the empress must kill Xu Ting this time?"
Jinting Longjun's eyes suddenly turned golden: "Jinting Lake is my divine domain. If it were here before, I could barely compete with the empress. But now, the empress resists God's will and is seriously injured. How much strength can she still exert?"
"Of course not at this time!"
Demon Saint Empress smiled and said: "It's just... how long can you protect this human race after leaving Jinting Lake? For the great cause of my demon race, Dragon Lord is not willing to stand by and watch?"
"I'm sorry, but I obey!"
Jinting Longjun said in a deep voice, and with a wave of his hand, traces of spiritual energy gathered and blocked the lake.
"Alas... we have known each other for hundreds of years, but I never imagined that we would finally reach this point!"
Seeing Long Jun, she immediately turned her back. The Demon Saint Empress just sighed quietly.
If it were her, if she had such a good opportunity, she would definitely take action. Since she was already an enemy, she would no longer be confused by the previous friendship, morality, etc.
Under God's will, we can only survive by seizing every opportunity!
"Unfortunately… "
The Demon Saint Empress suddenly smiled, like a hundred flowers blooming, and the mood of spring was moving, but her entire figure slowly faded away.
"phantom?"
Jinting Longjun grabbed it out, crushed the illusion to pieces with a big hand of water, and disappeared in vain.
"What a Sky Fox magical power!"
His expression became solemn: "The demon clan has decided to use all its strength to kill the dragon. Xu Ting is in danger!"
…
Anjiang main road.
Xu Ting was fully equipped with armor and stood on a large iron-armored ship, looking very high-spirited.
This time the troops were sent out on both land and water, mobilizing 50,000 men, including 20,000 naval forces, hundreds of warships, and countless other small boats.
At this time, the journey up the river was vast and the canvas was like clouds, covering the sky and the sun.
Several counties along the way were in shock. They surrendered directly and opened their doors to the city. The momentum was overwhelming. This is the situation that has been achieved!
"grown ups!"
At this time, a Taoist priest next to him said: "This Anjiang is under the jurisdiction of Anjiang Longjun. When our army is passing through, should we sacrifice one or two?"
"Anjiang Longjun?"
Xu Tingwei pondered and immediately remembered the relevant information: "This god is cruel and easy to kill. How can I sacrifice to Him? Are you confused?"
"General!"
The Taoist priest was shocked: "The Dragon Lord of Anjiang is the master of the Anjiang water system. When I pass through his territory, if I don't treat him politely, I'm afraid I will make things difficult for him!"
"Making things difficult?"
Xu Ting laughed and pointed at the warships: "I have tens of thousands of troops and hundreds of warships. They are supported by heaven and have strong military strength. Even if a dragon comes to stop them, they will be killed! Do you really think that my military law is a joke?"
He was becoming more majestic at this time, and there was a chill in his laughter.
Naturally, he did not come up with this secret, but was reminded by several Taoists from Qingxuan.
How can humanity rely on gods to strengthen itself? In particular, if the gods absorb energy, it will really hinder the great cause!
At this time, he said: "Also, doesn't this general have help from you and other strange people?"
"Don't worry, sir!"
The Taoist priest who spoke had an earthy face, but Kong Luo next to him waved his whisk and said, "With me waiting here, I will be able to protect the general!"
"Well, with the Taoist Master and the masters of Xuanzhen Tao here, what do I have to fear?"
Xu Ting laughed and missed the Taoist at the beginning.
The Taoist's face turned earthy immediately, while Kong Luo next to him glanced at him with pity.
He knew that with Xu Ting's temperament, the best outcome for this Taoist would be to stay away from the center. If there was even the slightest mistake, he would inevitably be killed.
"There is one less Taoist in the competition!"
He sighed quietly in his heart and glanced at Qingxuan next to him.
After three years of hard work, this Taoist gradually gained important positions. After all, Xuanzhen Tao has a vast power and has a lot to offer.
However, in addition to excluding dissidents, these Taoists also continued to have trouble with the gods, which really made him a little confused.
At this time, a crisp sound of swords sounded in the dantian.
"Huh? Is there a demon spying on you?"
Kong Luo raised his eyebrows and walked to the side of the boat in one stride. With a wave of his hand, a few green sword auras were submerged into the water.
Gulu! Gulu!
A series of blisters burst open, revealing the blood inside.
The corpses of several yakshas and spirits surfaced.
"Well, it's just a few yakshas... ignore it and move on!"
The Xu family started by cleaning up evil gods and cutting down mountains and destroying temples. Naturally, Xu Ting understood these very well and gave direct orders without any respect for the water god.
Wow!
The warship rode the wind and waves and ran over the corpse without ceremony.
…
"Death, death, death..."
But Kong Luo didn't notice that there was another fish that slipped through the net under his sword energy!
A big herring was lucky enough to avoid the sword energy. When he saw that Yasha and his companions were dead, he was immediately frightened and couldn't care about anything else. He wandered away desperately and not long after, he came to a water palace.
"Hold on, who dares to break into the Dragon Palace?"
In front of the magnificent gate, two rows of shrimp soldiers and crab generals were drinking.
One of them, named Xiashi Shisan, was surprised and said: "Huh? Aren't you the big herring under Xunhe Yasha? Where are your adults? But you have something important to report?"
"Death, death, death..."
This big herring was swimming, and its spiritual thoughts were very disordered.
"Hey... This fish is so stupid and stupid, how can he become a sailor? It is an embarrassment to you, me and Mr. Long!"
General Crab next to him saw it and immediately snorted, very dissatisfied.
"General, don't blame me. Although this big herring is stupid, he works hard and practices very quickly..."
Xiashi Thirteen stepped forward to comfort him, and finally the big herring stammered: "Dead...dead...human beings, so many ships! Sir, he's dead..."
"What?"
A group of shrimp soldiers and crab generals were startled at first, and then became furious: "Anyone dares to kill Yasha who patrols the river? You are really brave. Just wait, I will report it to Lord Long!"
"No need to Tong Bing!"
Amid the roar of the dragon, a middle-aged man wearing a black crown walked out, followed by a turtle-like girl with a guard of honor.
"I already know everything about what happened in the river. What a Xu Ting, hehe..."
Although he looked like a human being, he had a black horn on his head. At this moment, a huge majesty emanated from his sneer, causing other soldiers and generals to kneel on the ground and tremble.
"Death, death, death..."
The big herring was also agitated, but it swam away quickly and turned in circles.
"This fish..."
Anjiang Longjun was also startled when he saw it: "Although he is a little stupid, he is commendable for his loyalty and bravery!"
With a click of his hand, a golden light fell on the big herring.
As soon as the big herring rolled to the ground, it transformed into a tall man in green clothes, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a simple and honest expression.
When the sailors around saw it, they couldn't help but feel envious.
Dragon Lord's intervention is naturally different from ordinary Yaksha's little tricks.
You must know that ordinary enlightenment methods are just methods to induce birth. At best, the demon clan is incomplete, and its innate wisdom is flawed.
However, this kind of person does not have such troubles. Instead, it can increase wisdom and will not produce strange shapes. This is the blessing of the Dragon King.
