Chapter 397
397 The plan
well, from now on, you are an outer disciple of the WAN Shen sect. As long as you collect 200 illumination realm and one ethereal opening insect crystal, you will be qualified to join the WAN Shen sect and become an official disciple. However, those insect crystals can only be obtained by killing insects in the underground of the undying city. If you buy, exchange, or get insect crystals from other places, we will not recognize them! This entry test is effective until you advance to ethereal opening.”
The beauty behind the counter took the entry form that Xia Pingan had filled out and explained it to Xia Pingan in a soft voice.
Liang Tian and the red-clothed Deacon had already disappeared behind the stairs. Xia Pingan nodded and retracted his gaze. He then looked at the beauty who had been summoned and couldn’t help but ask, ” may I know your name, miss? ”
Xia Pingan asked for the name of this beauty purely out of curiosity. He did not have any dirty thoughts because he could not think of what realm Pearl could summon such a beauty.
The beauty in front of him was in her twenties, elegant and refined. Her skin was whiter than snow, and her eyes were like clear water in the mountains. When she looked around, she had an elegant and refined temperament. Her green dress couldn’t hide her impressive figure. What was even rarer was that this woman had a dignified and intelligent temperament. When she got close to him, he could feel the soft and warm fragrance of the beauty. There was also a sweet fragrance that assaulted him, making him feel good.
Such a beauty was also a stunning beauty in reality, not to mention that she was summoned. Looking at her intelligence, she was much higher than ordinary summoned people. She could already handle some official Affairs of the undying city in the steward’s Hall.
Before the beauty could reply, Xia ping ‘an heard someone nearby sneering and talking, ” hahaha, another Summoner who has been charmed by this Beauty’s realm Pearl. A realm Pearl that can summon such a beautiful woman is the most precious and top-notch one among Summoners. It’s priceless. I don’t think you can find many of them in the WAN Shen sect. What is that guy thinking? ”
there are many Summoners like him. Many of them always have dirty thoughts. They always want to summon some beauties to warm their beds and enjoy their good fortune. If it was so easy to obtain the beauty realm Pearl, would the WAN Shen sect use it as a front here? ”
“The beauty realm Pearl is hard to come by, and the spiritual will crystal that can merge with it is even rarer. It’s already good enough for us to have a good look at such a beauty,”
“That’s true!”
The sneers and sneers of the discussion were not malicious, so Xia Pingan pretended not to hear them.
The beauty who was being questioned by Xia Pingan looked at Xia Pingan’s face with her beautiful eyes. She covered her mouth and laughed. you’re an interesting mage. You even want to ask for my name. My name is Wang Zhaojun!
Wang Zhaojun, one of the Four Great Beauties?
No wonder Yingluo
Xia Pingan was obviously stunned for a moment. His eyes looked at the woman again, then he nodded and left the counter without a word. He turned around and walked out.
Interesting, interesting. Since there was a realm Pearl that could summon Wang Zhaojun, then there should be one that could summon Xi Shi, Diao Chan, Yang Yuhuan, big Qiao, Cai Wenji, Zhao Feiyan, Feng Xiaolian, Zhang Lihua, Queen of the Zhou Dynasty, Queen of the Zhou Dynasty, and Li Shishi. If it could summon the four beauties, just thinking about it would make one excited.
Of course, this was just out of curiosity. It was purely academic research. Xia Pingan did not have any strange thoughts.
After walking out of the high tower of the hall of charge, Xia Pingan had already put the matter of the beauty realm Pearl to the back of his mind. Although beauties were good, in the current situation, survival was still the most important.
Xia Pingan looked at the square outside and took a deep breath. Then, he strode toward a place in the city.
He had obtained another rare realm Pearl after killing the three Mantis blade bugs. He had also obtained two rare realm pearls when he killed Ming Tian. Xia ping ‘an planned to find a place to fuse these three realm pearls first.
Xia ping ‘an’s original plan was to continue hunting Mantis blade bugs in the black wind Canyon after integrating these realm beads. However, the words of Liang Tian and the red-clothed Deacon in the hall made Xia ping’ an have other thoughts. He had mastered the strongest soul-refining technique. Since the WAN Shen sect was in urgent need of such experts with special skills, he had to think about how to maximize his benefits with this information. Joining the WAN Shen sect might be a shortcut.
Perhaps it was because he had poisoned Meng Yitong in the city, white-robed mages from the ten thousand sacred clan were flying around in the sky above the undying city, especially in the direction of the exit. It seemed like all Summoners who left the undying city had to go through the inspection mirror.
If it was in the past, Xia Pingan would definitely be nervous when he saw the face-revealing mirror. But now, that magical weapon was no longer useful to him.
Xia ping ‘an did not panic. After walking in the city for half an hour, Xia ping’ an arrived at the south of the city. He found an Inn, rented a courtyard, and temporarily settled down.
The guests in the city were all Summoners, and Summoners needed to fuse with realm beads to cultivate. Therefore, the accommodation provided by the inns and hotels in the city were mostly individual courtyards and villas. Most of them had underground secret chambers for Summoners to cultivate.
After the waiter left, Xia ping ‘an summoned the Black Dragon and the child God of Fortune to check the yard. After confirming that there was nothing wrong with the yard, Xia ping’ an went directly to the underground cultivation room in the yard. After closing the door, he summoned a Black Tortoise and an assassin to guard the door. Then, Xia ping ‘an took out the realm Pearl that he had obtained from killing the three Mantis blade bugs.
This was an Assassin’s realm Pearl. The words ” Cao mo ” were written on the realm Pearl in a small seal. There was also a dagger that was faintly visible in the realm Pearl.
A few days ago, Xia Pingan had killed more than 20 Mantis blade bugs and obtained seven realm beads. Among the seven realm beads, only one was a rare divine power realm bead, which was called ” three visits thatched hut. the other realm beads were all ordinary realm beads, and two of them were overlapping.
This was Cao Mo’s Assassin’s realm Pearl. It was only the second rare realm Pearl that Xia Pingan had obtained recently.
At this stage of cultivation, it was not easy to take each step, merge with one more realm Pearl, and increase one’s divine power.
He pricked his finger and his blood dripped onto the realm Pearl. In the blink of an eye, Xia ping ‘an was surrounded by a cocoon of light.
……
Xia Pingan opened his eyes and saw a platform in front of him. On the platform, there was a Pavilion. The pavilion was surrounded by fluttering flags. There were countless guards, civil officials, and military generals. Two large flags were erected on both sides of the high platform. On one side of the flag was written the word ” Lu “, and on the other side was the word ” Qi “. On both sides of the two flags, thousands of people stood in formation.
On both sides of the pavilion, there were many ritual implements. There were also musicians and the three animals used for the Alliance.
If this scene had been in the spring and autumn era, it would definitely have been the standard of an “International Conference.” This was the ostentatious display of the baronage Alliance.
Xia ping ‘an was standing on one side of the Lu Kingdom, which was close to the Fort, and opposite him were the Qi Kingdom.
The officials and generals of the Lu State were all gloomy, worried, and forced to smile. On the other hand, the Emperor and officials of the Qi state were all proud and arrogant.
There were two long tables on the platform. Beside the long table in the state of Lu sat Ji Tong, the Duke Zhuang of Lu, who looked dejected. The person sitting at the long table in the state of Qi was no stranger to Xia ping ‘an. He was Jiang Xiaobai, the Duke Huan of Qi. At this moment, Jiang Xiaobai was in high spirits, laughing and teasing.
Xia Pingan looked at himself again. He was strong and strong. He was wearing armor and standing in the position of the class monitor of the Lu Kingdom’s military general. Cao Mo’s figure was almost comparable to the burly man’s vest that he had transformed into. Xia Pingan touched his sleeve and found a dagger hidden in it.
Cao mo was indeed the ancestor of assassins in Huaxia. Cao mo might not be good at leading troops to war, but her courage and boldness were definitely enough.
Duke Lu, as long as you sign this covenant, our two countries will be on friendly terms for generations to come. There will be no more wars and no more bloodshed between the soldiers of our two countries. This is a great deed. This covenant will definitely leave its name in history and become a story between our two countries. Hahahaha! Jiang Xiaobai, Duke Huan of Qi, laughed happily when he thought of how Lu would cede a large piece of land to Qi after signing this covenant. From then on, Lu would have to live at his beck and call. His reputation among the feudal vassals would be even better.
The Qi country was the only country that could tell the tale. However, for Lu country, this kind of Alliance meeting would only leave them with humiliation. However, no matter how much humiliation they felt, they could only accept it. If they didn’t sign this Alliance agreement, Qi country might directly send their Army to destroy Lu country.
Ji Tong looked at Jiang Xiaobai and could only swallow his pride. Lu State had lost three times in three battles with Qi state. With Guan Zhong’s support, Qi state was growing stronger by the day and was a tyrant much stronger than Lu State. He had no choice but to sign the Alliance agreement today.
Thinking of the three battles and three defeats against the Qi state, Ji Tong couldn’t help but look at Xia ping ‘an helplessly. He sighed in his heart and was about to pick up his brush.
At this moment, Xia Pingan moved. He suddenly stepped out of the Lu Kingdom’s formation. Cao mo had a strong physique, and one step was equivalent to three steps of the others. Xia Pingan rushed to the bottom of the steps of the Alliance assembly platform in one big step, and then to the top of the platform with another step. In a flash, he was behind Jiang Xiaobai, the Duke Huan of Qi. He took out the sharp dagger hidden in his sleeve and pressed it against Jiang Xiaobai’s back.
Xia ping ‘an’s movements were too fast, and he was close to the fortresses of the Alliance meeting. Furthermore, the incident happened so suddenly that even the guards around Jiang Xiaobai, Duke Huan of Qi, did not have time to react. They had already kidnapped Jiang Xiaobai with daggers.
The people of Qi state were all shocked. No one had thought that a small country like Lu would dare to harm Duke Heng of Qi during the Alliance meeting. Qi state was in chaos all of a sudden. In the midst of the clattering, a large group of Qi guards pulled out their swords and surrounded Duke Heng with a murderous aura.
The people of Lu State were also dumbfounded. All the civil and military officials ‘expressions changed. Lu zhuanggong was so frightened that his hand trembled and his signature pen fell to the ground.
“Cao mo, what do you want to do?” A general of Qi state stepped forward and glared at Xia ping ‘an with his sword drawn.
