"The one who can shake Master's situation... must be someone who knows Master very well... Could it be..."

At this point, the three of them looked at each other and spoke in unison.

"Young Master-Uncle!?"

After these words were spoken, the three of them fell silent again. After a moment, Ye Wuyu smiled bitterly and said, "If it is really Junior Master-Uncle... this matter will probably be quite troublesome..."

Han Shaoyin also pouted: "Little Master is still quarreling with Master, even though it's been so many years..."

Gu Sheng shook his head, not making any comment. Ye Wuyu pondered for a long time before saying, "Hmm... Currently, there are only three Xuanmen disciples active in the human world: you, Brother Xianliu, and Brother Ning... Brother Xianliu should be busy dealing with the girls who flock to him all day long, so it's unlikely that the person Junior Uncle is looking for is him... Then, it must be Brother Ning?"

"... Well, that makes sense. Fourth Brother, only people from Xiao Wuji Palace might know about your iron shop. If it was Junior Uncle who helped Xiaotian find you through Senior Brother Ning, then everything makes sense..."

Han Shaoyin nodded, but still a little puzzled: "But... why is this? Does Junior Master want to ruin Master's plan?"

Ye Wuyu shook his head: "No... Master is following the will of the saints for thousands of years. What he wants is not the gains and losses of a city or a place, the rise and fall of a blade of grass or a tree... Master's eyes are only on the comprehensive revival of the human race and the restoration of the glory of the ancient human race! In heaven and on earth, only the ancient human race that can kill gods will be taken seriously by Master..."

"For this game, Master has devoted all his efforts to train Xiaotian in those three years. We have all witnessed the effort he put in."

"No matter what Junior Uncle-shi will do, he will never ruin Master's plan!"

Hearing this, Han Shaoyin was even more puzzled: "What is the junior master doing?"

Ye Wuyu and Gu Sheng looked at each other and smiled bitterly. Then Ye Wuyu said, "Perhaps Junior Master wants to prove that his ideas back then were correct? Or, is he simply angry with Master?"

After these words fell, the room fell into silence again. After a moment, Ye Wuyu sighed softly: "This matter is serious. It's better to find Junior Uncle and ask him in person... No, forget it. Junior Uncle has been hiding for so many years. Even Master can't find him, let alone us..."

Han Shaoyin interrupted, "Actually, there's nothing wrong with that... That's the junior master who dares to fight Tian! What a wonderful match between him and Master. Anyway, it's none of our business, why don't we just call everyone together and do as Xiaotian said and watch the show?"

Hearing this, Ye Wuyu shook his head, pointed a finger at Han Shaoyin's brow, and sighed, "You... you really enjoy watching the fun... But you know, according to Master's meaning, none of us should appear in the chess game, so conversely, Junior Master will naturally drag all of us into the chess game! You want to be a bystander watching the fun? Haha, I'm afraid it's difficult."

After hearing this, Han Shaoyin shuddered and held her head, saying, "No way! Junior Master, do you have a grudge against us? Who is Xiaotian to you? Do you have to be so nice to him?"

Ye Wuyu sighed, "That's true... But when did we see through Junior Uncle's thoughts? I heard from Master that when Junior Uncle was young, he had a quarrel with Master and was in a bad mood. He stopped eating and went to tear the sky! Who could have thought of this? Even Master could never see through his wild thoughts... I can only guess that he probably saw that Xiaotian's actions were also unbelievable, so he had the so-called 'love for talent' in mind? Or, is there some other more special reason..."

"But anyway..."

Ye Wuyu looked at Han Shaoyin and said slowly, "Xiao Ming, when I think about it carefully, I'm afraid we've already entered the game..."

Han Shaoyin reacted quickly after hearing this and immediately shouted, "Yes! Mu Liuling! That girl... isn't she going to drag us down with her?"

"It's over, it's over... Now Brother Xianliu is the only one left in the world who has not been dragged down..."

The three of them were shocked at the same time...

"If there is no guess... Junior Master's next target is Brother Xianliu... Not good!"

Han Shaoyin said anxiously: "It's okay for a few of us, but if Brother Xianliu is dragged into this, then... then it will be a big deal!"

"Uh... Brother Xianliu, it seems like...hiss!"

As if they had thought of something, Gu Sheng and Ye Wuyu took a deep breath at the same time, and then looked up into the air...

"Little Master, you won't stop until you turn Master's chess game upside down..."

At the same time, the Great Zhou's "Order to Defeat the Barbarians" was issued from the imperial palace and spread throughout the streets and alleys. Everyone immediately understood... Emperor Zhou was going to play a big game this time!

As everyone knows, the Order to Defeat the Barbarians is the most brutal means used by the Great Zhou to fight against the barbarians. Every time it is issued, the Southern Barbarians will suffer heavy losses... And this time, in one morning, the palace issued fifteen consecutive Orders to Defeat the Barbarians, calling on all the people with lofty ideals in the world to go to the barbarian land, kill the barbarians, seize the land and return it to the king!

Anyone who killed the barbarians and seized land would be rewarded according to their merits, and all the princes could add the seized land to their own fiefdoms. Moreover, even the autumn examination was postponed... Therefore, everyone could see that this time, the Great Zhou Dynasty was really determined to eliminate the barbarian threat forever.

It should be noted that since the beginning of the millennium, the barbarians in the Zhou Dynasty have been the thorn in the side of this empire! The so-called barbarians can actually be barely classified as a branch of the human race, but they have never considered themselves to be human beings, but rather they claim to be the descendants of the beast king. They are extremely hostile to the human race in the vast land of China, and sometimes they even eat people! If it weren’t for the fact that they also disliked the demons, they would have been instigated by the demons long ago...

Of course, these barbarians were not simple to be regarded as strong enemies by the Great Zhou. They had beast-like bodies. Although they did not go far in the ordinary cultivation path, they were all proficient in body training. When fighting on the battlefield, they were not inferior to the strong soldiers of the Great Zhou! More importantly, the barbarians also had powerful practitioners such as priests, elders, and state masters. There were even terrifying people who reached the level of great practitioners. It was because of this that the barbarians had not been destroyed by the Great Zhou.

However, in contrast to their talents, their characters are extremely greedy. Once upon a time, a Zhou king tried to merge the barbarians into the human race. The idea was beautiful, but it was a bloody failure in practice... Facts have proved that the barbarians simply do not accept the king! Moreover, they despise farming and attack the back of the Zhou territory every year to get enough food for the winter, which involves a lot of manpower and material resources of the Zhou.

Therefore, in the eyes of many empires, the barbarians are a great constraint on the external power of the Great Zhou Dynasty. If it were not for the existence of the barbarians, the Great Zhou Dynasty's military might have already swept the world, and some countries in this vast land of China might have ceased to exist long ago...

But... this situation changed dramatically after Emperor Wu of Zhou ascended the throne!

Emperor Lu Xuan of Zhou, contrary to the policy of "holding on" of the previous emperors, continued to use troops against the barbarians for several years, and sent the invincible general Ying Luxian to garrison the barbarian land for many years. This war god of the Great Zhou did not live up to the emperor's grace. He repeatedly took advantage of the conflicts among the various tribes of the barbarians and used his own powerful military strategies to bully the barbarians' poor tactics to death. Every year, a large number of victory reports came... and his position as the number one military figure in the Great Zhou was established because of this.

At the same time, he adopted a very cold-blooded but very correct cruel method against the barbarians, killing them so hard that blood flowed like a river...

After years of war, the barbarian tribe has been torn apart by Ying Luxian, and each tribe is separated and unable to take care of each other... It can even be said that the destruction of the barbarians has reached the final moment, so... It is conceivable that when Emperor Zhou issued fifteen consecutive orders to destroy the barbarians, what kind of crazy blow the barbarians will face...

And this time, it is not just the predecessors' business. Top talents from Kyoto and all over the Great Zhou will go there to gain experience and strive for fame.

For a while, everyone was rubbing shoulders with each other, just like the pre-test training of the Great Autumn Test, but this time the training was to kill the enemy, and the security was greatly reduced. Of course, the benefits that could be obtained would also be greater...

The mighty "genius army" soon set off with the large group, and Chu Tianxiao was naturally among them...

After leaving Kyoto, the huge convoy split into several groups. On the way, the Kyoto group kept meeting "teammates" who came from other places to the barbarian land for "training". Gradually, the number of people in the team increased...

The convoy continued to grow like a snowball. After running for who knows how many days, the scenery around them had changed from warm and bright to desolate and dark...

This shows that the barbarian land is already within reach.
