The Eastern Region of the Great Zhou Empire, the Palace of the Eastern Prince.
In the hall of the East Prince's Mansion, there were more than twenty corpses placed in a miserable state of death.
"Who did it?" Dong Wang Zhao Xuan was furious.
The masters below were all trembling with fear. Normally Dong Wang was personable, but he was rarely as angry as he was today.
"Replying to the prince, there is a letter here. The person who left this letter is a person named Ye Xinghe. He told the general ins and outs of this matter and warned us in the East Prince's Mansion that if we continue to pursue the case, he will accompany us to the end!" One of the masters said that he was the head guard of Dongwang, named Zhao Xin.
Xin Zhao is a master of the Nine Heavens and has made great contributions to the East Palace.
"Who is he? He dares to threaten our Dongwang Mansion?" Dongwang snorted angrily, "Find out his identity and origin for me!"
"My lord, this Ye Xinghe is from a small family in Tianzong City!"
"How dare a member of a small family be so arrogant and kill so many eighth-level masters from our Dongwang Palace?" Dongwang looked a little annoyed.
"This small family is called the Qingyu Family. It was unknown before. But recently, for some unknown reason, its strength suddenly expanded and it seems to be the strongest family in the entire Tianzong City." Zhao Xin bowed slightly and said, "But this is still It’s not the crux of the matter.”
"Don't be so pretentious, tell me quickly!" Zhao Xuan said a little annoyed.
"We sent these eighth-level masters over, and judging from the wounds on their bodies, they were all bitten to death by monsters, and they were fatal with one blow," said Xin Zhao.
"Been bitten to death by a monster?" Dong Wang was shocked.
"Yes." Zhao Xin nodded, "It can kill a strong man from the eighth heaven with one blow. It shows that this monster is at least the ninth heaven. We carefully analyzed the wounds and found that more than one of us was killed by it. It’s just a ninth-level demon beast!”
"What do you mean, they raised some monster beasts from the Nine Heavens and made these monster beasts obey their orders?" Dong Wang frowned.
"Yes." Zhao Xin nodded, "The other party dared to send Captain Xia's body to our East Prince's Mansion. It shows that the other party does not care whether our East Prince's Mansion breaks with them, and is even ready for war, so because Based on this judgment, the opponent is not weak, at least not as simple as an ordinary family!"
After hearing Xin Zhao's words, King Dong nodded slightly.
"In addition to the mysterious Ye Xinghe, there is also Qian Duoduo, who is also the young master of the Shenjiang Sect." Zhao Xin said, "According to my judgment, this matter happened because Xia De wanted to kill Ye Xinghe. Xinghe, the young master of the Shenjiang Sect came out to protect Ye Xinghe, and his guards were killed by our eighth-level masters. After that, Ye Xinghe and others summoned the demon wolf and killed Xia De and others. It can be judged that God The Young Master of the Craftsman Sect and Ye Xinghe are sworn friends."
"The young master of the Shenjiang Sect is also involved?" King Dong's frown deepened, "Xin Zhao, what do you think should be done about this matter?"
"The King of the East has his ambitions in the world, so there is no need to make enemies everywhere. This Ye Xinghe has a mysterious origin, is powerful, and has the full support of the Divine Craftsman Sect. If we continue to pursue this matter, I am afraid that the strength of our East King's Palace will be greatly damaged!"
"You mean, just let this matter go?"
"Not only forget it, we should send envoys to send generous gifts, apologize to the Qingyu Family and the Shenjiang Sect, and blame all this matter on Xia De alone, saying that it was all Xia De's fake power and self-assertion. Our Dongwang Palace is willing Maintain a good relationship with the Qingyu Family and the Shenjiang Sect!" Xin Zhao bowed and said.
"Not only forget it, but you also want to send a generous gift?" Dongwang was extremely depressed. This was difficult for him to accept. The other party killed his people and sent their bodies to their house. Such arrogant and provocative behavior, Are they actually going to endure it
However, Zhao Xuan has always listened to Zhao Xin's opinions. Under the leadership of Zhao Xin, the East Palace has grown day by day. The idea of marrying with the Zhenbei Palace was also proposed by Zhao Xin, but was rejected by the Zhenbei Palace. , which made him extremely annoyed.
"Yes, Your Majesty. Now is the time for all heroes to rise together. Let's take a step back and enjoy the vastness of the world. If one day we conquer the world, it won't be too late to settle accounts with them slowly!" Xin Zhao said.
After hearing Zhao Xin's words, Zhao Xuan thought about it again and again, sighed and said, "Okay, I'll just listen to you!"
Xin Zhao bowed slightly and said: "Your Majesty is wise, I will take my leave!" Xin Zhao raised his head and glanced at Zhao Xuan, a ray of light flashed in his eyes, and then retreated.
Zhenbei Palace.
Zhenbei King Xia Lie is listening to the report of his subordinates.
"How has the Long Yan Army expanded recently?" Xia Lie asked.
Recently, in addition to the original National Protector Army, the Zhenbei Palace has also established a legion called the Dragon Flame Army and has begun recruiting new soldiers.
"Your Majesty, in just three months, our Long Yan Army has expanded to 300,000 people. However, if we want to go to the battlefield, we need to train more. Now we are facing a problem. We have a serious shortage of weapons and armor..." That The guard cupped his hands and said.
"How many weapons and armors are currently lacking?"
"Reporting to the prince, there are a shortage of 150,000 weapons and a shortage of 250,000 armors." The guard asked with his hands raised.
"What did the Shenjiang Sect say?"
"The previous reply given to us by the Shenjiang Sect kept the original price unchanged. After this period of military expansion, our military expenditure has been seriously insufficient. At most, we can only purchase 50,000 weapons or 30,000 pieces of armor from the Shenjiang Sect."
Xia Lie frowned. If there were not enough weapons and armor, the legion's combat power would be seriously insufficient, and it would also affect the morale of the entire legion.
Just when Xia Lie was at his wits' end, a guard hurried in.
"Your Majesty, the people from the Shenjiang Sect are here, and they brought a lot of things with them!"
Are the people from the Shenjiang Sect here? Xia Lie was a little confused. They had not purchased weapons and armor from the Divine Craftsman Sect recently!
"Let them in!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Soon, groups of strong men came in an endless stream, carrying box after box of things, filling the entire hall.
Xia Lie was extremely confused. What was the Shenjiang Sect doing? Why did you suddenly move so many things in? He opened the box and looked inside and found that it was full of weapons and armor.
A man in rich clothes walked towards Xia Lie, bowed slightly to Xia Lie and said, "Your Majesty, this is a list of everything. Please take a look at it!"
Xia Lie knew this man. He was a manager of the Shenjiang Sect, named Qian Xiong.
"Manager Qian, my Zhenbei Palace has not ordered anything from Shenjiang Sect recently. Why did so many weapons and armors arrive?" Xia Lie was extremely confused.
