Chapter 229: Changing Home!

Dayong Dynasty. Capital city, Daming Palace, Council of State Affairs. The emperor summoned the heads of the three provinces and six ministries to a closed-door meeting. Small matters are handled in big meetings, and big matters are handled in small meetings. The content of this meeting is kept highly confidential. An hour later, the tightly closed door of the Council Hall opened, and all the gentlemen left with calm faces, returning to their respective duty rooms to immediately implement the decisions made at the meeting. The Minister of Revenue mobilized all officials in the Ministry of Revenue to check all kinds of resources such as food, fodder, and military equipment. If the soldiers and horses are not moving, the grain and grass will go first. This action immediately caused heated discussions inside and outside the capital. "Where will the imperial court attack next? Will they continue to attack Baiwan Dashan?" Without waiting for the Ministry of War to take any action, the people of the capital, who were each regular guests, began to discuss and express their opinions.

"Impossible! How could fighting a million people cause such a big commotion? The three southwestern states have stored so many supplies over the years, which is enough to supply the armies under the command of the three dukes, Duke Yingguo, Duke Chengguo, and Duke Jingguo." "I think so." "So where do you think the imperial court is planning to attack? It's impossible for them to go out to sea again, right?" "Why is this impossible? After we get rid of the Sea of ​​No Beginning and No End, isn't there another Sea of ​​No Heaven and No Earth?" "If you ask me, the imperial court should first destroy Wutianwudihai. Listen, Wutianwudi, what kind of name is this? It's treasonous!" "Hey... I heard that the fifth prince went to sea from Yangzhou, and has won the support of some soldiers and established a firm foothold in Dinghaiwei." "Don't talk about it, don't talk about it." "In my opinion, the imperial court will either increase the intensity of conquering the Million Mountains or clear the Ten Thousand Monsters Desert. As for the Sea of ​​No Heaven and No Earth, we will have to wait until the Sea of ​​No Beginning and No End is digested before we can talk about it." "Haha... a bunch of frogs in a well, making irresponsible comments on world affairs." "What do you mean?" "I look down on you." "Hey! You said we are frogs at the bottom of the well, which means you are not. Then tell me, what do you know and what profound ideas do you have as a frog in the well?" "Humph! I know more than you! This time, the imperial court will not attack the Hundred Thousand Mountains, the Sea of ​​No Heaven and No Earth, or the Desert of Ten Thousand Monsters. We are targeting the invading enemies from another world." "What? Another world? Which other world?" "You don't need to know this. You just need to know that the imperial court is serious this time and will send out eight guards at once!" "Eight guards? Hiss... So terrifying! So terrifying!" "Speaking of which, if we want to fight the invading enemy from another world, where should we fight? How should we fight? We can't just let the enemy in to fight, right?" "No way!" "The imperial court had plenty of time to prepare the battlefield, so how could they let the enemy in? In my opinion, they are either outside the realm, or in the Endless Sea or the Ice Field Demon Realm."

"Brother, that's a good idea. Can you explain this in detail?" "The Icefield Demon Realm and the Endless Sea have just returned. They are vast and sparsely populated, and not many resources have been invested in their development. It doesn't matter if they are destroyed. Especially the Icefield Demon Realm, the climate is bitterly cold, and real estate is scarce. I heard that the court has no plans to relocate people there in the next 20 years." "Hearing what you said, it is indeed possible. But according to what you said, why don't we just fight in Baiwan Mountain?" "I'm just guessing. I'm not a minister in the court. How would I know?" "It turns out that you were just guessing. I thought you were a young master from some noble mansion and got some news." "Hahaha……" A cheerful atmosphere spread instantly. Li Yunshen and Qiu Wanru, dressed in white Yulong suits, sat facing each other quietly, listening to the noise in the teahouse, neither of them intending to speak. A moment later, the Sixth Princess, who had also changed into casual clothes, came over under the guidance of her maid. "Big sister called me, is there anything you want to tell me?" The Sixth Princess bowed gracefully, sat down, and started asking questions directly. Picking up an ordinary pottery pot and pouring a cup of ordinary tea for the Sixth Princess, the Princess said calmly: "I asked the Sixth Sister to come because I want to trouble her to go to Hongnong and bring a message for me." "Hongnong? Bring a message?" The Sixth Princess lowered her eyelids slightly, avoiding the sight of the Eldest Princess, and asked in confusion, "I wonder what message my eldest sister wants me to convey, and to which elder of the Yang family?" The eldest princess opened her red lips and uttered two names: "Yang Boxi, the previous head of the Hongnong Yang family, and Yang Shenxiu, the uncle of my sixth sister." "This……" The Sixth Princess bit her lip, seeming to be a little hesitant. After the last dinner ended in a bad mood, the Sixth Princess never went to Hongnong Yang's house again. No matter how much her mother ordered her, she would not go. At the same time, all ties between his younger brother, the Seventh Prince, and the Hongnong Yang family were severed. Now the eldest princess suddenly asked her to go, which was really unexpected and unwilling. The princess then said, "Don't worry, I won't let you go alone. I will go with you on my behalf." After a pause, the princess emphasized her tone a little: "With Wanru here, Cui Shi will not dare to embarrass you, and Hongnong Yang Shi will not ignore you." "With these words from elder sister, I feel relieved." Hearing this, the Sixth Princess had no choice but to agree, "I wonder when Big Sister plans to let me go?" "It's better to choose a different day than to hit it, and let's do it now." The eldest princess picked up the ceramic cup in front of her and took a sip of tea. The coarse tea was bitter and astringent. To the Sixth Princess, who was used to drinking good tea, spiritual tea, and fairy tea, she could not swallow it at all after just sniffing it.

However, the eldest princess enjoyed it and did not show any impatience at all. Qiu Wanru, who had remained silent throughout the entire process, stood up and looked at the Sixth Princess: "Your Highness, please get up early." "Ah." The Sixth Princess responded, left the teahouse with Qiu Wanru, and drove to Hongnong Yang family in a carriage. Along the way, the Sixth Princess found several topics she wanted to talk to Qiu Wanru. But Qiu Wanru was preoccupied with things and had no time to chat. Seeing this, the Sixth Princess did not force a conversation and arrived at the ancestral home of the Yang family in Hongnong in silence. The Hongnong Yang family had already received the news. Yang Boxi and Yang Shenxiu went out together to greet them, and directly brought the Sixth Princess and Qiu Wanru into a courtyard near the Yang family ancestral hall. This is the place where the Yang family entertains foreign guests with the highest standards. The Sixth Princess knew clearly that this courtyard was not opened to entertain herself, but for the sake of the eldest princess. Therefore, the Sixth Princess only acted as a messenger and told Yang Boxi and Yang Shenxiu what the Eldest Princess had told her when she left the teahouse. As the representative of the eldest princess, Qiu Wanru came not only to accompany her, but also to be a witness and to deliver a token of trust. A pure white jade pendant was handed to Yang Boxi. Having completed their mission, Qiu Wanru and the Sixth Princess left without staying any longer. Yang Boxi and Yang Shenxiu saw the two off and went to the Yang clan ancestral hall. There are already sitting or standing here quite a few Yang clan members who hold a certain status within the clan and have a certain say in clan affairs. Yang Cui, who was usually qualified to come in, did not show up this time! Yang Shenxiu's father, Yang Cui's husband, Yang Boshan, sat steadily on an armchair, without any embarrassment like he had when he kneeled on the ground last time. However, after seeing Yang Boxi, like a candle in the wind, staggering into the ancestral hall, Yang Boshan immediately gave up the armchair and personally helped Yang Boxi sit down. At the same time, he spoke from the bottom of his heart: "Brother, I'll go, you stay at home and take care of your health." The other elders did not express their opinions rashly, but waited quietly for Yang Boxi to express his opinion. The top leaders of the Hongnong Yang family already knew what the eldest princess's rules were. I just haven't decided whether to get involved. If you want, get involved to that extent. Now that the eldest princess has sent Qiu Wanru and the sixth princess to convey the message, the Hongnong Yang family must make a decision. "Cough cough..." Yang Boxi clenched his right fist, put it against his lips and coughed a few times. After finally calming down, he said in a low but firm voice: "In this matter, our Hongnong Yang family will follow the steps of the Duke of Wei's Mansion. We will do whatever they do." After this was said, except for Yang Boshan who expressed his opposition out of concern for Yang Boxi's health, all the other elders agreed. As for the current clan leader, he is busy with important matters at the court and cannot be away, let alone express any opinion at this critical juncture. It would be good to follow the footsteps of Duke Wei’s Mansion.

The Duke of Wei's Mansion is the eldest princess's maternal family. The eldest princess would never cheat the Duke of Wei's Mansion even if she wants to cheat anyone else! At this moment, the contemporary Duke of Wei, Xu Weixiong, was extremely troubled. Xu Kunlun, who was also in his twilight years, was sharpening his knife after hearing some news. Because his body shape had changed so much, the armor that no longer fit him had already been maintained and hung on a rack so that he could be put on at any time. A strong smell of iron and blood war emanated from Xu Kunlun's thin body, faintly stirring the air. In addition to the Hongnong Yang family and the Weiguo Mansion, the generals who participated in the attack on the Wuzhong Demon Sect regardless of casualties and survived but lost their cultivation, also took different actions. Most people sharpened their swords and washed their armor, waiting for the order to put on their armor and go to war. A small group of people are taking medicine to recuperate, draining out their limited vitality and trying to recover to a state where they can go into battle. No general wanted to die on his sickbed. If I can return home safely this time, it will be a great blessing in life. And if you do it well, maybe you can restore your cultivation and return to the peak of your life. Why not give it a try? Moreover, top-notch families and clans like the Hongnong Yang family and the Duke of Wei's Mansion are all trying to give it a try. What is there for people like us who are one or even several levels below us to be reluctant to give up? Just like that, when the attention of people inside and outside the capital was attracted by the actions of the Ministry of Revenue and the subsequent large-scale reshuffle of the Eight Guards by the Ministry of War, old soldiers and generals who had long faded from people's sight quietly gathered together. The military generals were headed by Xu Kunlun, a former general from the Duke of Wei's Mansion, and the civil officials were led by the former patriarch of the Hongnong Yang family. Taiyi Sect and Baima Zen Temple, as leaders of Taoism and Buddhism, also actively participated. Without the knowledge of most people in the world, these older generations, who had lost all their skills in the war to forcefully attack and destroy the Wuzhong Demon Sect, came to the Million Mountains in the southwest. The Duke of England had received the secret order from the Emperor and had already made preparations. The cross-border true spirit projection array can be activated at any time. The last time they were sent to Dayin Realm, the advance team that seemed to have made no achievements was stationed near the formation. When the older generation of civil servants, military generals, Taoists and Buddhists arrived here, the second cross-border true spirit projection was immediately carried out. Unlike the last time when Tao Tie was needed as a middleman, this time, the person who summoned the true spirit projection in the Dayin Realm was Old Qiu. The location is a large island in the endless sea of ​​Dayin Realm. The six-type combat unit system of gods, earthly gods, ancestral spirits, human ghosts, priests, and warriors was retained, but was significantly modified. Using the power of the rules of the celestial bodies, Mr. Qiu transformed his spiritual body into a body constructed with the power of the stars. In this way, there will be no worries about the upper limit of strength being locked. The Great Emperor Ziwei of the North Pole of Zhongtian, the Lord of the Stars, the Grandmaster of All Things, under His authority and dominance, both the advance team and the older generation can perform to the maximum extent. After eliminating some adverse effects caused by the change of time and space, the advance team and the older generation quickly split into two groups. The advance team returned to the New World, and the older generation went to the Old World. The two groups have completely different missions. The mission assigned to the advance team this time is exactly the same as Tao Tie's, which is to preach in the Dayin Realm!

With Confucianism and martial arts as the main focus, and Taoism and Buddhism as the auxiliary, we built many academies, martial arts halls, Taoist temples and Buddhist temples! Based on some deep considerations, the advance team avoided the western part of the Western Continent where the Qingshui River Basin is located, and focused on development in the east, middle and south. The north is bitterly cold, the area is vast and the population is sparse. We’ll talk about it later when we have enough energy. For some unknown special reason, after Ziwei Tianzun led three batches of twenty-seven chaotic realms to expedition to Dayong Realm, Dayin Realm not only did not decide on a new ruler, but there was not even a god to take over the power of rulership and sort out the miscellaneous affairs of Dayin Realm. The Emperor of the Great Yin Realm had no sense of presence except when he stood up to fight against the expedition. His only wish is to lead the gods who are willing to follow him and protect the mountains, rivers and land of Dayin Realm, and he asks for nothing else. Therefore, it makes logical sense that the emperor and the earthly officials do not fight for power and profit. However, it seems a bit strange that the former ruler Yue Zun, and even some secret entities hidden in the Endless Sea and the Old Continent, did not take the opportunity to jump out to integrate authority and power. Afraid of Ziwei Tianzun? When it comes to cross-border expeditions, Ziwei Tianzun can decide when it starts, but he cannot decide when it ends. Even if he had a backup plan to control the Pantheon and the Dayin Realm, it would be out of reach. Once something big happens, it will probably be difficult to respond correctly in time. Therefore, the advance team suddenly discovered that the obstruction and encirclement that had been expected did not happen! The various forces left behind in the Dayin Realm watched coldly as the advance team spread the knowledge and methods of Confucianism, martial arts, Taoism, and Buddhism, without taking any action. This is exactly the same situation that Tao Budokan encountered in the Qingshui River Basin. On the other hand, the older generation, led by Mr. Qiu, traveled across the ocean to the Old World. Tao Tie only vaguely sensed that the Old Continent only sent a few people to several chaotic realms in the last batch. Old Qiu witnessed with his own eyes that the Old World had assembled a much larger and stronger army than the New World. In terms of quantity, there are as many as 500 to 600 million individuals. In terms of strength, he can easily flatten millions of mountains! The waves on the endless sea were surging, but the giant beasts in the sea were quietly lying in wait, and did not come out to stop the older generation from marching towards the Old Continent in a just and upright manner. It seemed to be out of the control of Ziwei Tianzun. However, just as the older generation was about to land, something strange happened. Countless rays of starlight and moonlight fell from the sky. The entire Old Continent suddenly disappeared. In their place, there are millions of mountains in the Dayong Realm! (End of this chapter)
