It is said that this guy, Guan Ruiyi, had gathered his men and was ready to settle accounts with Huangfu Lingao.
However, he hurriedly turned his horse around and headed straight for Mount Qi with two thousand elite soldiers. The forest in Mount Qi seemed even more eerie and strange in the dark night.
Shangguan Ruiyi asked the person beside him in a deep voice, "Are you sure this direction leads to the entrance of Mount Qishan?"
"Yes, this is the only way to Qishan." A low, hoarse male voice came from the darkness.
Shangguan Ruiyi's face was filled with ecstasy when he heard this. He squeezed his legs against the horse's back and said, "Gee..."
"The storm is coming, I wonder if you are all ready?" A sigh so light that it was drowned in the darkness.
When Huangfu Lingao and Shuangbai received the news and rushed over, there was no trace of Shangguan Ruiyi.
"Your Highness, a map was found on the desk in the inner room." The guard handed the map to Huangfu Lingao, and the latter's expression changed.
"Your Highness, is this the map of the entrance to Mount Qishan?" Zhou Nian asked.
Huangfu Lingao nodded, turned around and handed the map to Bai Ziche. Bai Ziche frowned slightly, and Bai Ziyu tilted his head to look at him:
"This has to be fake. Would Shangguan Ruiyi be so kind as to leave this behind?"
"Whether it's true or not, we have to give it a try." Bai Ziche continued what Bai Ziyu said, but he was looking at Huangfu Lingao.
Huangfu Lingao pondered for a moment, and indeed, even if it was a trap, he had to jump into it:
"We will prepare our troops separately and gather at the village entrance tomorrow morning."
"Okay." Bai Ziche relaxed his brows.
What kind of secrets are hidden on Mount Qi? Zhou Nian was lost in thought as he watched the figures of the two white princes walking away.
The next morning, Shuangbai led three thousand soldiers and horses, and together with Huangfu Lingao led three thousand soldiers and horses, they set out from the village entrance and headed towards Qishan according to the map.
In less than half a day, maps of the route to Qishan were scattered throughout the nearest town. Along with this, a rumor quickly spread:
"What? Are you saying that the three kingdoms gathered together not to slay the demons on Mount Qishan, but to fight for the thousand-year-old treasures, the Demon Sword and the Soul-Separation Pill?"
"Tsk, there aren't any monsters on Mount Qishan. Our town is so close, when have you ever seen a monster?"
"That's right. Why did the armies of the three kingdoms arrive together? By the way, did you see the route map today? Can we really enter Mount Qishan?"
"That's strange. We've lived here our whole lives, and I've never seen anyone enter Mount Qishan. I thought it was some kind of demon who cast a spell."
"Bah, what Demon Mountain? If it's a fairy mountain, haven't I heard that there's a demon sword suppressed on that mountain?
That demon sword, just hearing the name is so powerful, if it weren't for this immortal mountain suppressing it, the world would have been in chaos long ago."
"Ah? So powerful, then... what if these people just barge in and anger the mountain god, and he unleashes his magic sword? What will we do then?"
"But how could it be? I heard that it was Emperor Sheng Yuan who initiated this. Emperor Sheng Yuan is so kind to the people, even to the people of our Shang Kingdom."
"Good? Humph... Poor Emperor Shang... Poor Crown Prince Shang..."
"What do you mean? Speak clearly!"
"Think about it, everyone in this world says that 20 years ago, the Shang Emperor was seduced by a woman transformed from a demon.
He killed Queen Shang and Crown Prince Shang. Later, when Sheng Yuan's army arrived, the demon fled back to Mount Qishan.
But think about it, what happened later? 30,000 Sheng Yuan soldiers died tragically in Mount Qishan overnight. If it was really done by a demon, she could have directly killed the Shang Emperor, the Queen and the Prince.
When the Shengyuan soldiers arrive, they can just start killing people, so why run away?
If it was really done by a demon, then those 30,000 soldiers were clearly sending themselves to their deaths."
"So, what you mean is that this is a conspiracy of Sheng Yuan Kingdom."
"Humph, this isn't a plot by Shengyuan Nation to annex our Shang Nation. Now it seems that they might be after the Demon Sword Child Soul-Separating Pill on Mount Qishan. Sigh..."
"Is this demon sword really that powerful?"
"Of course not. Legend has it that once the magic sword appears, it can sweep away thousands of troops and unify the world in the blink of an eye.
Think about it, which emperor doesn’t want to unify the world?
Legend has it that a thousand years ago, the emperor of this continent was the creator of this magic sword. Later, the gods in heaven could not bear the suffering of the people and sealed the magic sword.
Once it comes to gods, demons and immortals, people will feel awe and panic in their hearts, no matter how unreliable or even contradictory the legend is. This is the human heart.
"What is the Soul-Separation Pill? Could it also unify the world?"
"I've heard about this. My great-grandfather once said that the Soul-Separation Pill is a magical medicine. The so-called soul-separation pill is actually a soul-preservation pill. It is a magical medicine that can make people immortal."
“Yes, yes, I’ve heard of that too.”
"Even for these two things, Emperor Sheng Yuan can't harm his own sister, right?"
"Tsk, if I give you one of these two things, you would kill your own sister, nephew, or even your own son.
Besides, maybe Emperor Shengyuan’s plan to marry his only sister to us in Shang State was part of the plan.”
The middle-aged man who was talking the most excitedly winked towards the corner of the tavern, and the two of them left the tavern without saying a word.
The middle-aged man raised his eyes and said, "How is it? I sang well, right?" The stern man beside him seemed not to hear him and did not move.
The middle-aged man rolled his eyes and said, "Tsk, it's pointless to ask."
As he spoke, a light flashed in his eyes: "Why don't we go to Qishan too.
I'm also curious about what the magic sword looks like, and the Soul-Separation Pill, wow, they're both treasures of the world."
The middle-aged man had a rough appearance, but he had a pair of beautiful eyes that looked around lingeringly, which was quite incongruous. When he talked about the treasure, he was more curious than greedy.
"Hey, did you hear what I said? Hey, don't go." Seeing the cold man walking forward, the middle-aged man shouted hurriedly.
"The master has ordered that we return to Pluto's Pavilion as soon as we are done."
The middle-aged man’s face darkened, his eyes turned and he said, “It’s really strange, they are obviously twins and look the same.
But some people are just not as likable as Chen. Brother Chen is not only handsome, but also has a good personality, unlike some people...
Hey, hey, don’t go, Hikage!! You bastard!!”
The middle-aged man, should I say Yueying from Pluto Pavilion, gritted his teeth and looked at the man who only left a shadow in front of him, and shouted loudly.
Yueying raised her hand and touched it, revealing her original charming and beautiful appearance, and hummed:
"Just go back, you blockhead! You have no sense of humor! Didn't the master himself go back? He must have gone to watch the fun. You leave the chores to me. How heartless!"
His figure flashed and disappeared into the mist.
