Chapter 283: Madam Qiongfang and the Crown Prince of the Zhou Family
If Gong Mengbi had not had extraordinary perception, he might not have been able to detect his movements.
He did not alarm others. The armored white-bone horse walked very fast on the yin energy. Gong Mengbi followed behind them and saw them arrive at Beauty Ridge.
The peach trees on Meirenling are left with only some broken branches and fallen leaves, and the scene is desolate.
Gong Mengbi was walking through the forest, hiding himself with the help of the wood energy and moonlight. He saw General Zhao straighten his troops, shake open the cloak behind him, and then eight hundred soldiers stood in formation.
General Zhao dismounted and bowed, saying, "Madam Qiongfang, I request an audience."
In the wild forest, two streams of smoke emerged and transformed into two beautiful ghosts.
One was dressed in purple and the other in pink, their dresses fluttering in the wind, showing their extraordinary charm.
Zhiruo stood beside Qiongfang, holding Qiongfang's hand and distinguishing the primary and the secondary.
Qiongfang looked at the awe-inspiring eight hundred military souls and the tall and mighty General Zhao, and said quietly, "General Zhao, you haven't left Longpan for hundreds of years. Why are you disturbing my peace today?"
General Zhao showed respect and said, "Madam Qiongfang, the Crown Prince has summoned you, and I have been ordered to go to the mountain to defend the king. I know you are cultivating here, so I beg you to accompany me."
Qiongfang showed a hint of surprise, but then shook her head and said, "General Zhao, I've already died for the Crown Prince once. So many years have passed, and I no longer wish to get involved in his cause. Please report this to the Crown Prince and tell him that I've wronged him, but please don't disturb my peace."
As Qiongfang and Zhiruo turned to leave, General Zhao said in a deep voice, "Madam Qiongfang, the Crown Prince doted on you the most back then. Don't you remember the kindness he showed you in the past?"
Qiongfang said with a half-smile, "General Zhao, how do you know what he has done to me? Even though I'm a woman, I stood by him when he was in trouble and was willing to die for him. So, am I ashamed of him?"
"Don't pressure me with favors. I don't owe the prince anything. And don't pressure me with great cause. The person is dead, so why bother to calculate so hard?"
General Zhao was speechless, so he bowed and said, "I was reckless, please punish me, Madam."
Qiongfang shook her head, sighed, and disappeared in the night wind.
Zhiruo looked at General Zhao and said, "General, you have official business to attend to. There is no need to delay for us two lonely ghosts. Go quickly."
General Zhao looked at Zhiruo deeply, bowed, put on his golden helmet again, and mounted his horse. The eight hundred military souls once again attached themselves to his cloak and headed towards Zhenshan.
Zhiruo stood in the wind, watching the general go away. She sighed softly and said, "People are dead now, why are you still thinking about your grand plans?"
She shook her head, not understanding General Zhao's persistence.
Gong Mengbi could understand it, but he didn't have time to discuss it with Miss Zhiruo, so he turned around and followed General Zhao to Zhenshan.
He knew that the prince of the previous dynasty was eventually defeated and died in Zhenshan, but he did not expect that the prince's soul would still linger and he would summon his old subordinates to come to the rescue.
Gong Mengbi had nothing to do with this matter originally, but since it involved Zhenshan, he had to follow along, not only to watch the fun, but also because he had several friends in Zhenshan.
Mr. Menghua, Wen Mengchun, and Yuanming. Mr. Yuanming is not so difficult to deal with, after all, he is one of the best masters in the world. But if something serious really happens, I am afraid he will not have time to take care of Menghua and Wen Mengchun.
It would be fine if Gong Mengbi didn’t know, but now that he knew, he couldn’t just sit back and watch.
General Zhao headed straight for Zhenshan, his skeletal horse stamping its hooves with a clattering sound inaudible to human ears.
After leaving Longpan Mountain, it melted into the night like a shadow.
Gong Mengbi followed closely behind, but did not dare to get too close.
Even though he could blend himself into the moonlight and wind, if he got too close, his magical powers would inevitably be revealed and he would be noticed.
He moved so fast that he appeared in a flash.
General Zhao entered Zhenshan and headed straight towards Yujing.
Gong Mengbi followed closely behind, hiding in the lush pines and cypresses of the mountain.
There are many strange rocks and towering peaks.
The Yu Well stands on Yuwang Peak. It is a huge ancient well suppressed by a square tripod. Huge chains lock the square tripod on the cliff and boulders.
Mr. Yuan Ming stood on a chain, his blue shirt fluttering in the night wind.
There were continuous vibrations in the Yu Well, but the square tripod remained motionless. Only the chains made a rustling sound, which could be heard in the wind and carried far away.
Mr. Yuan Ming did not look well and his face looked a little haggard.
Beside him, Menghua, Wen Mengchun and Haoran boy protected him, their eyes burning and glaring in all directions.
Opposite Mr. Yuan Ming, on a carriage stood a young man with a firm expression and gentle eyes.
He was followed by several dark shadows whose faces could not be seen clearly, and behind him were soldiers arranged in formation.
As the two groups faced each other, they heard a roar from afar: "Your Highness, I am late in protecting you. Please forgive me!"
The young man looked off into the distance and said with a smile, "It's not too late. General Zhao has arrived just in time. It's great that you've arrived."
General Zhao led eight hundred soldiers into the military formation, and immediately showed an extraordinary aura.
The defeated general gathered his military spirit and transformed into a black dragon, roaring in the sky and showing his sharp claws at Mr. Yuan Ming.
The young man smiled and said, "Mr. Yuan Ming, I respect you as a man of virtue and don't want to be against you. As long as you make way for me, we can still be friends."
Mr. Yuan Ming sighed and said, "Prince Zhou, you have been cultivating in Zhenshan for hundreds of years. Can't you see through the power, fame and fortune of the world? Why do you want to wade into this muddy water and ruin your years of cultivation?"
Prince Zhou said, "Now that the Great Ganjiang is in chaos, this is my only chance. The hatred of the destruction of my country and family must be avenged, and my Zhou family's imperial cause cannot be destroyed. You are my friend, please make way."
Mr. Yuan Ming shook his head and said, "It is precisely because you are my friend that I cannot bear to see you go astray. Even if you want to fight, do so honorably. But the evil dragon in the Yujing must not be released."
Prince Zhou said, "The dragon energy of my Zhou family has declined. We need new dragon energy and dragon soul to inject vitality into the Zhou family's imperial blood. This dragon was subdued by King Yu and is a unique species among dragons. Without him, my great cause will be difficult to achieve."
Mr. Yuan Ming said, "If you capture him, you will never have a chance to escape. This evil dragon is vicious and untamable, and has committed countless murders. You cannot subdue him."
But Prince Zhou refused to listen anymore.
"Form a formation!"
The military spirits formed into a battle array, and the black dragon circled. Prince Zhou looked at Mr. Yuan Ming with a scorching gaze and said, "Get out of the way!"
Mr. Yuan Ming sighed and took out a small chessboard from his sleeve. When the chessboard was unfolded, it encompassed the heaven and earth.
It was as if the stars were moving and the universe was changing, and the entire Yuyuwang Peak turned into a chessboard.
Mr. Yuan Ming extended his hand and said, "Come and play this last round with me."
