The sandalwood incense that the palace maids had just replaced in the imperial study had burned down to half its last stub when hurried footsteps sounded outside the door.
Crown Prince Yinghe followed a eunuch into the imperial study.
He bowed loudly to Ying Huan, who had his back to the door.
"Your subject pays respects to Your Majesty!"
Ying Huan turned around and handed the silk cloth in his hand, on which the spies had written intelligence, to his eldest son.
"Take a look."
Without wasting words, Ying He took the silk cloth and began to read it carefully.
He also frowned as he read it, and then pondered it for a while.
"Father summoned me late at night. Is it to ask me to go to Jiangzhou?"
"good."
Ying Huan looked at his composed son.
"I hope you will go to Jiangzhou with the Grand Minister of Agriculture to be in charge of disaster relief and to set an example for the royal family to care for the people."
He paused for a moment.
"Then we should make contact with that immortal being. Since he is here to rid the mortal world of demons, could he offer some support to the mortal realm? As the rulers of the world, we, the Ying clan, are naturally the representatives of the mortal realm."
Ying He had already figured out what his main mission in Jiangzhou was.
"Alright, the Grand Minister of Agriculture will be in charge of the specific details of the disaster relief. Once everything is ready, he will head to Jiangzhou. You should set off tomorrow."
"Your subject obeys the decree."
After his eldest son left, Ying Huan returned to his desk, sat down, picked up his pen, and began to continue writing the previous article.
However, the writing no longer possessed the same ease and fluidity as before.
Ying He did not actually wait until the next day to set off. He had been the heir to the family head since before the Ying family rose up, and now he was firmly in the position of crown prince.
He knew his father, the emperor, all too well.
So after leaving the Imperial Study, he simply returned to the East Palace to pack up briefly before heading directly to Jiangzhou.
After receiving this message from the palace eunuch.
As Ying Huan was writing, a slight smile appeared on his lips, and the words regained their liveliness.
Compared to the initiative of the Ying clan, other forces in the world could not act easily without the shell of the imperial court, but they all sent follow-up personnel as soon as they received the news.
However, their plan to contact Wu You as soon as possible was destined to fail.
Because the alchemical creatures had efficiently cleared most of the ruins that could be cleared, and reinforcements from nearby towns had arrived, along with the assistance of doctors and martial arts practitioners.
The situation in Jiulu City has basically stabilized.
Since that's the case, he no longer wants to stay in Jiulu.
So, before the people of Jiulu could react, the "monsters" that had become accustomed to running all over the city disappeared in batches.
When the most conspicuous ancient tree spirit and the azure dragon also disappeared.
Only then did people realize that the celestial being was about to leave.
When the representatives of various factions in the city began searching, they could no longer find Wu You.
However, a few vampires remained there to see what would happen next.
These guys usually ignore people, let alone reveal the whereabouts of their master, which they themselves don't even know.
Wu You was standing on the banks of the Tiansha River once again.
A moment later, 20 merfolk appeared around him.
"Find the remaining little red snakes, kill them all, and preserve their bodies."
"My lord, should we deliberately avoid being seen or heard by ordinary people?"
One of the merfolk asked.
Wu You glanced at the distant Jiulu City, which was faintly visible in the distance.
"If it affects the mission, then we don't need to."
"Plop plop plop..."
After a series of splashes, all 20 mermaids jumped into the Tiansha River and swam quickly to both sides, searching at a speed faster than that of fish.
Then Wu You went to Leping City, where Wang Fugui was already waiting for him at his private residence.
As soon as Wu You appeared, before Wang Fugui could speak, he handed over several alchemical creatures the size of mushrooms.
"My lord, what is this?"
Wang Fugui looked slightly puzzled.
“These are rainbow coral polyps. I have marked these three carefully. In case of an emergency, I will take one out and tell it that it will end up killing itself to notify me.”
"Your Majesty is wise!"
Wang Fugui accepted the colorful coral after offering a flattering remark.
They also have organs similar to eyes.
I looked at the three little guys in my hands.
It's strange that I could see a sense of fearlessness and self-sacrifice in the eyes of these colorful corals.
If Wu You hadn't been there, Wang Fugui would have wanted to rub his eyes.
Generally speaking, creatures created from obviously simple materials wouldn't have such rich intelligence.
For example, the moss-like creatures in the mezzanine of the private rooms at Zuixianlou can communicate in a simple way, but it's impossible for them to express emotions.
One can only marvel at how God's creative power has grown stronger without us even realizing it.
Wu You ignored Wang Fugui's surprise.
"Keep an eye on this area. I've already sent merfolk and vampires to search for the monstrous organisms everywhere. I'm leaving now."
"Please rest assured, my lord!"
After hearing this, Wu You immediately chose to return to Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain and then jump back home.
First, I greeted my family, and then I went to check on the construction progress on the other side of the mountain tree.
Back in his room, Wu You took out several camera memory cards and copied the video data from them to his computer.
It records the entire battle between the Azure Dragon and the Blood Dragon from beginning to end in a comprehensive way. Of course, there are also close-ups of Wu You's opening boasting.
Wu You plans to first produce a serialized short video program for his own enjoyment.
This video, made entirely from real film and television footage, is sure to outshine all the special effects shots in Hollywood blockbusters.
However, there is a small problem now.
Wu You knew nothing about video editing or similar things.
Fortunately, I own a company, and the employees are graduates from all kinds of majors.
I remember that in the resumes of several headquarters employees, video production was listed as one of their special skills.
I checked the time, and it was only 2 p.m., so I decided to go to the company.
More than half an hour later.
In Wu You's office at the company headquarters, several managers and employees with film and television-related majors gathered in front of Wu You's computer.
Several short videos are playing on the computer.
The first shot is of Wu You making a grand entrance, with the Azure Dragon beside him and the Qiongqi at his feet, glaring down at the ugly Blood Dragon below.
"Wow, this guy is so cool!!" a female employee couldn't help but exclaim.
"Boss, where was this video filmed? Which actors did you hire? Can you just expose the dragon and Qiongqi directly?"
Wang Hui asked some key questions.
"Well, these are also company employees. You'll meet them if you have the chance. As for the location, it's a rather special place."
But as several videos from different angles continued to play, they became speechless.
Besides the shocking and exciting scene, they also realized that Ao Guang was really fighting, and not just filming for entertainment.
The final, almost devastating impact on the ancient city was so powerful that the earth tremors were almost palpable even off-screen. The giant red serpent in the video was definitely doomed.
The ancient city was almost completely destroyed.
If it's just for filming, then the sacrifice for this shot is a bit too great.
Because everyone present understood that this was a video recording, not special effects or CG.
