Early morning hours.
Above the imperial city, clouds suddenly gathered together quickly.
Then, it covered the entire sky.
The bright moon disappeared into the clouds and the stars suddenly vanished.
The light in the entire imperial city suddenly dimmed.
However, since it was late at night, most of the people in Kyoto were asleep and unaware of it.
The Great Yan army gathered in the imperial city was already ready for battle.
Luo Qingzhou and the Queen left the palace.
The masters from the five major sects of Dayan, as well as the masters of the imperial palace guards, all gathered outside the gate.
Bai Yishen was wearing a Confucian robe and looked up at the sky with a serious expression.
At this time, the voice of Jia Island Master of Penglai Fairy Island suddenly came from the thick clouds in the sky: "Dean Bai, please come up and talk, so as not to disturb the people."
Bai Yishan narrowed his eyes, waved his sleeves lightly, released the flying sword, landed on the ground, then looked at the people in Dayan in front of him and said, "Let's go up together."
Everyone knows that the situation this time is more serious than last time.
Once the other party takes action, I am afraid that the whole Kyoto, and even the whole of Dayan, will be a river of blood.
So this time, they all came with the determination to live and die with Kyoto.
Everyone walked up to the flying sword in silence.
Bai Yishan looked around again and said, "Isn't Miss Yueyao here?"
When Luo Qingzhou was wondering how to answer, Nangong Huoyue beside him said in a deep voice: "She has been here for a long time. Dean, don't worry about her. If there is an emergency, she will naturally take action."
Bai Yishan glanced at her and said nothing. Then his mind moved, and the flying sword carrying everyone flew into the night sky.
"Qingzhou, stand behind me."
He turned his head to look again and said gently.
Luo Qingzhou then remembered his identity and quickly left the Queen's side and stood respectfully behind him.
The cultural spirit of Da Yan is revived.
The news that Longhu College has opened courses to practice Confucianism and Taoism, and that Bai Yishan is accepting disciples, has spread.
When the practitioners of Dayan heard the name of Bai Yishan's disciple, they were a little surprised, but they also felt it was reasonable.
After all, they all knew the name Luo Qingzhou.
This young man was very talented. Even the Queen and the Queen Mother had praised him highly. He even stole the show at a banquet attended by the princes of neighboring countries.
This young man seems to have a very good relationship with the Queen.
Back when the Queen was still the eldest princess, they heard that the young man was called "Sir" by the Queen and was treated as a student.
This shows that the other party is indeed very talented and capable.
For such people, it is probably easier to practice Confucianism than for others.
Perhaps Dean Bai was impressed by his talent and his loyalty to the empress and the court.
Although I heard that he was a son-in-law, it didn't have much impact.
The flying sword quickly flew high into the sky.
Then he passed through the clouds and came to the night sky shrouded in mist and smoke.
When the flying sword passed through the barrier and everyone could see the scenery clearly from above, their eyes shrank and their faces changed slightly.
Three huge spaceships were suspended high in the sky!
On the spaceship in the middle stood the strong men from the three major immortal sects, and terrifying auras emanated from the spaceship.
On the spaceships on the left and right sides, there stood hundreds of disciples of Piaomiao Xianzong.
Judging from the oppressive aura they deliberately exude, the lowest level of cultivation among them is either a Grandmaster or a powerful cultivator in the Spirit Severing Realm!
Not to mention the spaceship in the middle, even on the spaceships on both sides, any disciple who comes to Dayan is a powerful man who dominates the area.
You know, the leaders of the five major sects of Dayan are only at the level of Grandmaster or Spirit Severing Realm.
Moreover, the elders and disciples who came today were not the entire strength of their sect.
The countries and sects they control alone are far beyond the reach of Dayan.
Not to mention those far away, just take the Great Mongol Empire bordering the Great Yan as an example. The opponent's strength is much stronger than that of Great Yan.
The actual controller of the Great Mongol Empire is naturally the Piaomiao Immortal Sect.
From this we can see how powerful Piaomiao Immortal Sect, one of the three major immortal sects in Jiuzhou Continent, is.
Da Yan has now offended them. If it is not handled properly, there is a risk of national destruction.
At this moment, looking at the powerful strength displayed by the other party, the hearts of the people in Da Yan were extremely heavy.
The flying sword landed on the spaceship in the middle.
Bai Yishan glanced at the three great sect leaders at the bow, stepped forward to greet them one by one, and then politely said, "I wonder why you all came to my Great Yan today?"
A tall and thin old man from the Piao Miao Immortal Sect sneered, "Bai Yishan, it's already this time, are you still pretending? If you hadn't received the news a long time ago, why would you gather all the masters and warriors of your Great Yan in this imperial city to wait?"
Another red-faced old man from the Piao Miao Xian Sect snorted coldly, "It seems that you, Dayan, really want to fight with my Piao Miao Xian Sect. Are all your people ready?"
Bai Yishan bowed and said, "I did get some news and knew that you were coming to my Great Yan, but I don't know what it was about. Some of the news I heard was completely false, so I didn't take it seriously."
Yueyang Lou suddenly spoke up, "Bai Yishan, we left after signing the contract at the border of your Great Yan. When we were walking halfway, we suddenly remembered that your Great Yan's cultural energy had revived, so several elders discussed it and wanted to take the disciples to have a look, and wanted to communicate with you, and perhaps exchange some cultivation resources. As a result... Humph, the five people including Elder Zhou and twenty disciples never returned, and were all killed by you!"
"You Dayan, you are so brave!"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in Piao Miao Xian Zong had a grim look on their faces, filled with murderous intent.
Some disciples could not help but draw their swords.
The people on Penglai Fairy Island and Jiutian Yaotai all frowned slightly.
After listening to this, Bai Yishan bowed and said, "I don't know what Master Yue Feng said. Others in Da Yan don't know about it either."
Then, he looked at the people from Penglai Fairy Island and Jiutian Yaotai, and said, "I believe that Island Master Jia and Fairy Liuyun know that Bai was seriously injured at the time, and the other people in my Great Yan are also mediocre in strength. The elders and disciples that Master Yue Feng mentioned are all masters of Piaomiao Fairy Sect, and those elders are masters of the Return to One Realm. Even if I am Bai Yishan, I would never kill one of them casually, let alone five elders in the Return to One Realm. No one, no force in my Great Yan territory has the strength to kill them."
Jia Xun nodded slightly: "That's the truth. But Dean Bai, I heard that Elder Zhou and the others died in the thunder tribulation, and they were ambushed and trapped in the formation, and were all killed by the thunder tribulation."
Bai Yishan bowed and said, "Master Jia, please understand. In our Great Yan, there is no expert in thunder tribulation, let alone formation. Even if Elder Zhou and the others were indeed killed by thunder tribulation, it has nothing to do with our Great Yan."
"Bai Yishan! How dare you quibble!"
The tall and thin old man from Piao Miao Xian Zong suddenly shouted, raised his hand and took out a communication treasure, and said with a sinister look on his face: "I have evidence here to prove that it was you who led Elder Zhou and the others into the formation! You calculated everything, but you didn't expect that there was another disciple of my Piao Miao Xian Zong who escaped and returned! He saw with his own eyes that you drove the flying sword and led more than 30 people from my Piao Miao Xian Zong into an ambush!"
After saying this, the communication certificate in his hand flashed with light, and a blurry picture appeared.
In the picture, the night sky was illuminated, and a terrifying black vortex appeared in the sky, followed by thunder and lightning.
At the same time, a light shield of formation appeared on a mountain below, and many figures inside it fled everywhere in panic...
The picture was shaky and unclear, and it ended very quickly.
The person taking the photo was obviously very scared. After taking photos for a while, he ran away in panic.
Everyone's face changed slightly when they looked at the scene of thunder tribulation shown on the communication letter.
"Hiss, this thunder tribulation is so powerful..."
An old man from Penglai Fairy Island took a breath of cold air.
"Three-color lightning? What kind of spiritual beast is this? How could Da Yan have such a spiritual beast?"
"Could it be a powerful demon hidden in Da Yan? An ordinary spirit beast cannot cause this kind of three-color lightning..."
Others also started talking about it.
At this time, the Grand Master of Piaomiao Xianzong, Gong Yangyan, who had been silent just now, said with a gloomy face: "Dean Bai, do you still want to quibble?"
Bai Yishan was silent for a moment after reading it, and said calmly, "I have indeed seen the scene just played in Elder Yu's message, but the specific situation is not what you think."
Then he slowly explained, "When I was flying back on my sword, I suddenly found someone following me when I got there. I stopped my sword and turned around to ask him, but he didn't answer. He was wearing a mask and had a weapon in his hand. He rushed towards us with murderous intent. I thought we had encountered robbers, so I let the others go first. Then I flew my sword and fought with him. I led him to the mountain, and then I ran away."
"As everyone knows, Bai was already injured at the time and could not defeat the other party. But Bai did not know that there were spirit beasts or other things on that mountain that needed to survive the catastrophe, and that there were also formations set up. He also did not know that those masked killers were Elder Zhou and others from the Piao Miao Xian Sect..."
At this point, he cupped his hands again and said, "You should have seen it just now. I am not lying. The people in the light shield of the formation all have their faces covered and wear black clothes. How can I tell them apart?"
"Besides, Piao Miao Xian Zong had just signed a contract with our Great Yan under the witness of the two major Xian Zongs and cultivators from all over the world, and they had already left in advance. So Bai has always believed that those assassins were not from Piao Miao Xian Zong, but other robbers who robbed along the way."
As soon as these words were spoken, the place suddenly became quiet.
Fairy Lianxue of Jiutian Yaotai said, "What Dean Bai said makes sense. Since your Piaomiao Xianzong has already signed a contract with them, how could it suddenly return and attack them? So, those masked men should not be from your Piaomiao Xianzong, right?"
The muscles at the corners of Gong Yangyan's eyes twitched a few times.
Yueyang Lou bowed and said, "Fairy Lianxue, Bai Yishan's words cannot be trusted. One of my Piaomiao Immortal Sect's disciples escaped and saw with his own eyes that it was Bai Yishan who led people into the formation on that mountain without any reason. Elder Zhou and his men definitely did not take action first."
Then, he took out his own communication certificate, raised his hand and said, "Everyone can take a look at the scenes recorded in my hand. When Elder Zhou and his companions went to Da Yan, I was afraid of causing unnecessary misunderstandings, so I recorded their conversation before they left."
After he finished speaking, the communication certificate in his hand flashed and a picture appeared.
On the spaceship, Zhou Yuanshan and several others stood together, with more than twenty young disciples standing behind them.
Zhou Yuanshan said, "Brother, rest assured. We will have a good talk with Dean Bai when we go there. We are going to see the cultural energy of Da Yan and discuss future cooperation with them, not to fight with them. If the cultural energy of Da Yan is really revived, it will be a blessing for our Jiuzhou Continent. At that time, there will definitely be more and more people practicing Confucianism and Taoism. Naturally, our Piaomiao Xianzong will take the lead and cooperate with them."
"Then we can send disciples to each other, practice in our respective places, and exchange practice resources..."
At this time, the voice of Yueyang Tower also rang out: "If the other party is unwilling, then forget it. Don't force others, lest they say we are bullying others by taking advantage of our power."
Zhou Yuanshan said: "I know."
The picture stopped abruptly.
There was silence for a moment.
Yueyanglou held the message in his hand and said gloomily, "Bai Yishan, if you still insist, I will let you hear what Elder Zhou and his men said after they were attacked..."
After he finished speaking, the message in his hand flashed again.
Then, there was a loud noise from inside, followed by a voice.
"Dean Bai! What are you doing? I came here to have a good talk with your Da Yan, why are you..."
"Oh no! Senior Brother Zhou, we've fallen into a trap! Bai Yishan has lured us into a formation!"
"Dean Bai! What do you mean? If you don't want to, just say it directly. Why do this?"
At this moment, a vague voice resembling Bai Yishan's suddenly came from inside: "Elder Zhou, since you are here, then stay. Your Piao Miao Xian Sect has made enemies with my Great Yan, so Bai will naturally not show mercy, and will kill as many as he can..."
"President Bai! We have already signed the contract. Our Piao Miao Xian Sect..."
"Uncle Master, this is not good! Look above your heads!"
"Thunder tribulation! It seems to be a thunder tribulation!"
"Bai Yishan! Let us out now, we will leave immediately and never set foot in your Dayan again!"
"boom-"
A thunderous roar...
The voice in the message edict ends here.
Yueyanglou put away the message in his hand, and looked back at the middle-aged man in white robe in front of him, and said coldly: "Bai Yishan, what else do you have to say?"
The eyes of the others were also looking at the Great Yan scholar in front of them.
Bai Yishan was silent for a moment, then looked at him and said, "It seems that Master Yue Feng has prepared a lot of things for today. In the face of these evidences, Bai naturally has nothing to say. But the premise is that they are all true."
"I can swear on my palm, on my literary mind and the honor of my ancestors, that I have never said those words just now. I have never said even a single word!"
Yueyang Tower sneered: "Bai Yishan, no one will believe your oath. I have evidence here, and my Piaomiao Xianzong has witnesses. Even if you quibble and swear an oath today, it will be useless!"
The tall and thin elder named Yu Changqing also gritted his teeth and said coldly: "No matter what, the five elders and more than 20 disciples of my Piaomiao Xianzong all died in your Great Yan territory! Bai Yishan, if you don't give us an explanation today, we will make your Great Yan capital a place of unrest!"
The red-faced elder sneered, "Bai Yishan, do you think that since you have gathered so many warriors, my Piao Miao Xian Zong can't do anything to you? If you really want to take action, let alone these warriors below, even if all the warriors in your entire Great Yan come over, I will kill all of you!"
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
On both sides of the spaceship, hundreds of disciples of Piaomiao Xianzong drew their swords.
For a moment, murderous aura was everywhere!
There was silence for a few breaths.
Jia Xun suddenly said calmly: "Everyone, please be patient and discuss how to resolve this peacefully. If you can avoid violence, try not to do it. We are all practitioners and we all know how difficult it is to embark on this path. Why do we have to fight to the death at every turn?"
Fairy Liuyun on the side also spoke up: "Island Master Jia is right. You two should discuss it carefully and try to resolve it peacefully."
Gong Yangyan said gloomily, "My Piao Miao Xian Sect is not a sect that bullies the weak, but this time, too many of our fellow disciples have indeed died. So we had to mobilize a large force to come here to seek an explanation from Dayan. If Dean Bai wants to resolve the issue peacefully, our Piao Miao Xian Sect is naturally willing to discuss it with him. If he still forcibly quibbles and refuses to admit it, then don't blame our Piao Miao Xian Sect for turning against us."
After saying this, his robe fluttered, and two cold rays of light flashed in his eyes. He added: "The elders and disciples of my Piao Miao Xian Zong who came here today all came with the determination to avenge their fellow disciples. Even if they all die here, we must get justice for them!"
"kill!"
At this moment, a disciple's indignant shout suddenly came from the spaceship on the right.
Immediately, hundreds of disciples on both spaceships shouted in unison, sharing the same hatred and murderous intent.
"kill!"
"kill!"
"kill!
!”
They shouted angrily and struck with the swords in their hands, with a terrifying momentum!
Yueyang Lou raised his hand and said calmly, "Everyone, please be quiet first. Let's first listen to what Dean Bai of Dayan has decided."
The shouts from all around gradually quieted down, but the terrifying murderous aura and momentum were still gathered together and could erupt at any time.
Bai Yishan remained silent. Before he could answer, Nangong Huoyue beside him suddenly said with a cold face, "What do you want to explain?"
Yueyang Tower looked at her and couldn't help but sneered, saying, "Bai Yishan doesn't dare to make the decision, so he asked you to make the decision? Well, you are now the queen of Dayan, and this matter should indeed be decided by you."
After a pause, he said in a cold voice: "The dead cannot be resurrected, and we will not say that killing someone means paying with one's life, and let you Great Yan practitioners pay with your lives. Besides, to put it bluntly, how can you Great Yan practitioners afford the compensation? So, let's talk about other conditions."
"First, Elder Zhou and his men have consumed a large amount of cultivation resources from my Piao Miao Xian Sect. Naturally, you, Da Yan, must compensate for these things."
"Secondly, so many people from my Piao Miao Xian Zong died at once, and many of them held important positions. With their sudden departure, my Piao Miao Xian Zong is losing a lot of profits almost every moment. You, Da Yan, will naturally have to compensate for these things."
"Third, you, Queen of Great Yan, and Bai Yishan, write a letter of apology and guarantee, sign your names on it, and stamp it with your Great Yan seal. Then, the two of you will bring the top leaders of your five major sects to my Piao Miao Xian Sect, kneel down and kowtow to the dead, burn incense and offer sacrifices. This will take at least an hour."
"Fourth, hand over the spiritual beast that survived the tribulation!"
After saying this, he glanced at the people in Da Yan in front of him again, narrowed his eyes and said: "If you can do these four things, this matter will end here. I, the Piao Miao Xian Sect, will never trouble you again because of this matter."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in Dayan clenched their fists, and anger rose in their hearts.
Zhuang Zhiyan could not help cursing, "How shameless! You hunted us down first, and now you bite us back and put forward these despicable and shameless conditions. You, the Piaomiao Immortal Sect, are so despicable, you are worse than animals!"
"boom!"
Yueyang Tower's fist suddenly turned into a dazzling light and hit him.
Bai Yishen's figure flashed and he stood in front of Zhuang Zhiyan. He waved his sleeves lightly and a milky white light appeared, instantly blocking the fist light.
"boom!"
There was a loud bang.
Bai Yishen's body trembled and he couldn't help but take a few steps back. The blood rushed to his face and a stream of blood was about to spurt out of his mouth.
He immediately suppressed it.
Yueyang Tower was also shaken and took a few steps back.
"kill!"
The disciples of Piaomiao Immortal Sect had long been unable to endure any more, and when they saw this situation, they immediately roared and were ready to take action.
Everyone in Dayan immediately took out their own magic weapons.
The elders of Piaomiao Immortal Sect also had murderous looks on their faces, their robes fluttering, and light shining from their bodies.
The war is about to begin!
Waves of terrifying aura surged toward the surrounding night sky like a tide.
And at this time.
In the night sky not far away, a ray of moon-white light suddenly appeared.
It was like a huge silk net that surrounded all the practitioners on the three spaceships from all directions.
Luo Qingzhou released the flying snake silently.
Then, pollen quietly fell from my body.
