Later, some people recalled the last opening of the holy land. They said in hindsight that they should have smelled something unusual a long time ago. After all, this holy land gathering broke all the routines.
First, the holy land itself was reopened every eighteen years instead of every hundred years. Then, the envoys and leaders sent by the Four Symbols Realm, which led the four realms in the Three Thousand Worlds, were surprisingly young, completely unlike the usual practice of sending older people to lead the charge.
It would be fine if it was just the wrong age, but maybe it was because young people tend to act ridiculously, but this time, two teams of the Four Symbols Messengers actually refused to return to their original world.
You should know that the holy land opens once every hundred years, and the entrance to the holy land is located in the Four Symbols Realm. Therefore, almost all the talents in the three thousand worlds will gather in the Four Symbols at that time.
Therefore, the four messengers would first rotate among themselves, and then return to their original world to wait on orders, while also entertaining visitors who came through the entrance of this world.
This is the first time that people from the Four Symbols Realm are unwilling to return to their original world and take the road to their home, but instead want to borrow the road from someone else's door.
And two came out at once.
The first one to cause trouble was naturally Han Qianling. He returned to Qinglong Academy with Yin Bandi, and then settled down there without moving. His reason was very legitimate: he was waiting to meet his Taoist partner.
For Luo Jiujiang, he had previously abandoned Nu Zi who had just arrived in the Suzaku Realm and traveled through six worlds, big and small, overnight, just to see the other party in advance. Now he stayed in the Qinglong Realm for the same reason, which didn't sound too out of the ordinary.
...It's not extraordinary at all.
The palace servants of the Suzaku Realm even opened a cross-border water mirror for Han Qianling just for this matter. This thing consumes a lot of energy, and every click of the finger burns money.
The palace servant who was initially responsible for this matter was very angry and asked Han Qianling if he felt that he was the only one who could do it.
Han Qianling sincerely invited them to simply erase his title of Suzaku Messenger, so that he could directly join the Taoist partner's team and it would be more convenient for him to do anything.
Suzaku Palace people: "..."
To their surprise, the Palace Master of Shenxue, who was always known for being cold, beautiful, yet easy to get along with, and the legendary Master Han who would answer questions from the dead in a polite manner, turned against them and acted so willfully and unreasonably!
It was like suddenly tearing off a layer of painted skin that had been worn for a long time when one was full of confidence.
Even though the Lord of Suzaku had always let things go, and the whole world was filled with independent factions of all sizes, and even though the East and West had been fighting fiercely for a long time, and it was the most destitute of the Four Symbols Realms, the reputation of the oldest Suzaku Palace would not allow this Jindan descendant to challenge it like this.
Just when the people in Suzaku Palace were furious and wanted to teach this kid surnamed Han a lesson he would never forget, the Lord of Suzaku, who had not made any move in nearly a thousand years, actually issued an oral order specifically for this matter.
She said: The world is about to change, so let them handle such trivial matters.
In the water mirror, the faces of the people from the Suzaku Palace, filled with resentment and eyes that said "You're so lucky", all distorted and twisted along with their figures. Finally, the water mirror turned back into a calm mirror, reflecting Han Qianling's calm eyes.
Upon hearing the result, Han Qianling hummed a "hmm" without much surprise. There was no joy of achieving his goal or arrogance of being unsatisfied. If he had to describe it, his expression was more natural, as if he had just taken a sip of water.
Compared to the other party's one-sided and emotional conversation just now, the look on his face when he looked at the hourglass on the table was surprisingly more humane - after all, the reverse time of the hourglass reflected the time when he would meet Jiujiang.
————
Compared to the open quarrel in Han Qianling, there was an undercurrent in the room of another envoy who planned to stay in the outside world.
It was not surprising to everyone that the envoy who insisted on staying in the White Tiger Realm and refused to return to the Black Tortoise Realm was none other than the angry Ni Kui.
"You are overstepping your authority." A cold voice sounded behind Ni Kui's ears.
Ni Kui turned around, his face etched with exaggerated surprise. "Very good, very good. It started with me being forbidden from asking about my ancestors' whereabouts, and now it's finally become presumptuous for me to even set foot in other worlds?"
Perhaps it's because he's a man of anger, prone to more anger than most, and therefore finds it particularly difficult to control some of his emotions, but Ni Kui's emotions are rich and exaggerated. Paired with his muscular, tough-looking face, it can even be a bit strange.
"Please don't try to change the subject to exonerate yourself." The deputy envoy of the Xuanwu Group said expressionlessly, "You know that's not the case."
In front of outsiders, this young man always presented himself as a thin, pale, and frail person. He spoke little and did not leave a deep impression on others, but he dared to grab Nuzi's elbow when he was mad.
This was a person so skinny that his paleness reminded people of a gloomy and sticky environment, almost making people feel sick. But at this moment, when he faced Nuzi, his expression was condescending and full of judgment.
Ni Kui put away the huge, distorted smile on his face and glared back at the Xuanwu envoy with angry eyes.
However, a subconscious look of fear and retreat flashed across his face.
"I previously condoned your almost absurd conspiracy with the White Tiger Envoy," the young man said calmly, "and you need to repay my kindness, considering I have given you the maximum freedom within your limits."
Nuzi didn't lose his temper. Before his all-pervasive anger came out, he actually reflected a disgusted expression.
The young man was able to ignore all the provocations in his actions and expressions.
He used courtesy before force, and after demonstrating his benevolence, he quickly issued a threat: "You can resist, get angry, jump up and down and curse, and refuse to obey me. If you do that, I believe that Master Xuanwu will have hundreds of women ready for you to emerge from the holy land."
