Surprise... more like a shock!
Fu Xiaoguan grabbed Xu Yunqing's hand and said, "I don't want any surprises for you. This surprise is too scary. I just hope you're safe!"
Xu Yunqing laughed, and after five breaths he sighed:
"But Mom really still has some things to do."
"No matter what you have to deal with, just leave it to me, your son, okay? I don't want anything to happen to you. If I do, I'll be unable to sleep or eat, and I might even regret it for the rest of my life!"
Xu Yunqing looked at her son with a smile on her face. Her son had really grown up and understood how to worry about his mother.
It seems that I really shouldn't bother with those things outside.
"Has the situation outside been pacified?"
"Well, I changed the Wu Dynasty to Daxia, and now the five kingdoms are united and everything is stable. Oh, and I also took back the Ryukyu Kingdom."
Fu Xiaoguan said this with great pride, just like a child who wanted to show his superiority in front of his mother. Xu Yunqing was extremely pleased and indeed felt that his son was the best man in the world!
She was completely relieved.
The Spring Thunder Plan is to unify the five countries. This is Wu Changfeng's lifelong wish. It is not that Wu Changfeng is too ambitious, but it is the situation he is likely to face next!
Because Zhou Tongtong learned some unknown news, Wu Changfeng had to leave Hanling Temple and go to Baima Zen Temple, and spent two years to seek the result of unifying the five countries.
"It's like this, your master, Su Changsheng, has some problems."
Fu Xiaoguan was stunned. This was the second person today who said that there might be something wrong with Su Changsheng. This person was his mother, so there was definitely no need to lie to him.
"What's his problem?"
"Your master picked him up at the foot of the Great Xianbei Mountain when he was traveling around the world. Master said he was only three years old at the time. After Master passed away, he became the abbot of the Taoist temple."
"Two years ago, the Tianji Pavilion's spies in Chi Lechuan accidentally received information that Emperor Tuoba Feng of the Desolate Kingdom and Emperor Yelu Qing of the Liao Dynasty had a secret meeting three years ago, the year before you destroyed the Desolate Kingdom."
"The intelligence regarding that meeting has not been confirmed, but following this information, a spy traveled to the Liao Dynasty border and was killed at the foot of the Great Xianbei Mountains."
"Before my mother went to the Fan Kingdom, Fan Wuxiang once came to the Taoist temple. Fan Wuxiang said that Su Changsheng was the heir of the Liao Dynasty's royal family."
"Mother naturally doesn't believe it, but Fan Wuxiang said that Su Changsheng would go out to travel every three years, and no one knew where he had been. Fan Wuxiang said... he knew that every time Su Changsheng traveled, he would definitely go to the Liao Dynasty. He would also definitely stay for a long time in the Great Xianbei Mountains on the Liao Dynasty's border."
"He also said that within the Great Xianbei Mountains, there's now an army of over 400,000 men, and that their training methods are derived from your Divine Sword Army!"
Fu Xiaoguan was suddenly shocked and looked at Xu Yunqing in disbelief - Zhou Tongtong's spy died at the foot of Daxianbei Mountain, Su Changsheng must go to Daxianbei Mountain when traveling, and there is also an army of 400,000 trained using the training methods of the Divine Sword Army... With this combination, the truth surfaced, and Su Changsheng was suspicious!
It is still impossible to conclude now and further verification is needed.
"The Liao Dynasty has always coveted the territory of the former Yu Dynasty. Before you attacked the Huang Kingdom, the Liao Dynasty had already colluded with the Huang Kingdom. However, between the Liao Dynasty and the Huang Kingdom was the Western Xia. The Liao Dynasty had to occupy the Western Xia before it could unite with the Huang Kingdom and then attack the Yu Dynasty."
Tuoba Feng is in Chi Lechuan, so it is easy to judge the truth of this matter. Since he had a secret meeting with the emperor of the Liao Dynasty, it would be easy to call Tuoba Feng back and ask about the situation.
Xu Yunqing continued:
"You wiped out the Desolate Kingdom in one fell swoop. Mother was watching the whole time, and Su Changsheng was right beside her. Thinking about it now, I'm terrified. Perhaps he also wanted to see with his own eyes the combat effectiveness of your Divine Sword Army."
"You destroyed the Huang Kingdom in a very short time, which disrupted the Liao Dynasty's deployment and caused the Liao Dynasty's war against Xixia to stop. Perhaps Su Changsheng's advice to the Liao Dynasty was part of this."
"Mother originally planned to use the battle at the border town to fake her own death and escape, while secretly investigating whether Fan Wuxiang's words were true. If they were true... Su Changsheng would have great ambitions!"
"Your father mentioned the purpose of launching the Spring Thunder Plan in his letter to Mother. He said that the five kingdoms would become stronger under your leadership and could resist attacks from the Liao Dynasty!"
"The Liao Dynasty was very powerful?" Fu Xiaoguan had never paid attention to other neighboring countries before. Only then did he realize that his vision as a time traveler was not as broad as that of his parents.
Xu Yunqing nodded. "The Liao Dynasty's territory was not much smaller than our present-day Great Xia. The Liao people were brave and skilled in warfare, with both men and women possessing formidable fighting abilities. Of course, the Western Xia's Black Cavalry were also renowned. The Western Xia and Liao Dynasty fought for hundreds of years, and the Western Xia's power is now weakening. If the Liao Dynasty were to launch another war against the Western Xia, the Western Xia would likely face extinction."
"If the Liao Dynasty conquered Western Xia, its territory would be the same as that of Great Xia. Add to that the 400,000-strong army that has remained undiscovered until now, and its combat power would be terrifyingly high."
"Fan Wuxiang came to the Taoist temple with the intention of alienating Mother and Su Changsheng. Su Changsheng later learned that Fan Wuxiang had been to the Taoist temple, and he suspected Mother knew his secret, so he timed his visit to Border Town perfectly. Mother was therefore certain that Fan Wuxiang was not trying to alienate Mother, and that what he said was true."
"So, Mom had to die at that time, because Mom was worried that Su Changsheng would become desperate and do something bad to you."
Fu Xiaoguan frowned.
"But why didn't he kill me?"
Su Changsheng had many opportunities to kill Fu Xiaoguan. If Fu Xiaoguan was killed by him, Daxia would probably fall into chaos.
If Su Changsheng really had secretly trained an army of 400,000 men in the distant Daxianbei Mountains, and had taken advantage of the chaos in Daxia to place this pawn, wouldn't it be very likely that he could occupy Daxia in one fell swoop?
Perhaps seeing Fu Xiaoguan's doubts, Xu Yunqing said:
"Mother thinks...I'm afraid he's curious or worried."
"What does this mean?"
"He knows that you are born with wisdom. In Taoist teachings, those born with wisdom are chosen by heaven and cannot be defeated. Moreover, you always have Bei Wangchuan by your side. He also knows that you have a spear that can easily kill a Saint."
In this way, Su Changsheng first sent Su Mo to come to him through Bai Yulian, and then Su Jue, Su Rou and Su Su also came to him. All this was for him to understand himself better, or to confirm his thoughts through them.
He even sent me the magical inkstone later and accepted me as his last disciple, but he didn't care about my martial arts. All this was to show his goodwill to me and get close to me personally.
His concern might really be the big gun.
And he truly witnessed the power of the big gun in the border town. What Fu Xiaoguan didn't know was that Su Changsheng had already seen the first gunshot in the border town, the shot he shot at Bei Wangchuan, and once again confirmed that Fu Xiaoguan was a person who was born with knowledge, and was terrified by the big gun with a chilling feeling.
