Chapter 389: Wen Zhong returns to Chaoge, Princess Long Ji asks for help

Xiqi.

Because of the coercion of Guang Chengzi and others.

Many spirits came to Xiqi to seek refuge and explained the situation to Jiang Ziya.

Learning that these monsters were all forced by Guang Chengzi and others outside to come and assist Xiqi.

Jiang Ziya was very happy. With these beasts assisting, why worry about not breaking through Sishui Pass.

At the same time, these monsters made up for Xiqi's shortage of manpower.

At this time, Sishui Pass.

Because the four generals of the Mo family were dead, Wen Zhong did not dare to act easily now.

It just so happened that Huang Feihu brought five thousand light cavalry from Chaoge.

After understanding the situation, Huang Feihu knew that the situation was not optimistic.

Fortunately, Wen Zhong's army had not suffered much loss, and he had previously received the 100,000 Xiqi soldiers that Jiang Ziya had brought to surrender, so the source of troops was still sufficient.

So Huang Feihu reported the situation to Chaoge, and there was no need to send a large army for reinforcements.

But soon he received news from Chaoge again that the King of Pingling in the East Sea had started a rebellion and needed someone to suppress it.

Wen Zhong originally wanted to let Huang Feihu go, but Huang Feihu let Wen Zhong return to Chaoge to stabilize the situation, saying that he and Han Rong were enough for Sishui Pass.

Wen Zhong pondered for a while. Xiqi had the Chan Sect assisting from within, and it was difficult to attack for a long time. Continuing to fight hard was not a wise move.

Since Huang Feihu had come, he could free himself to suppress the rebellion in other places first, and then return to concentrate his strength to deal with Xiqi, which was not a bad strategy.

Moreover, he had already sent someone to invite Kong Xuan. If Kong Xuan was there, even if he returned to Chaoge, he would not worry about being unable to resist Xiqi's attack because of his departure.

After instructing Huang Feihu that if Kong Xuan arrived, he must treat him well and not offend him, Wen Zhong led his troops back to Chaoge.

Three Immortals Island.

Gu Xiu was guiding Yang Jian in his cultivation.

Yang Jian had always been very diligent in his cultivation and had high comprehension. With a little guidance, he could draw inferences about other cases and fill in a lot of content in his mind.

Seeing Yang Jian enter meditation, Gu Xiu pondered in his heart.

With his current strength, rescuing Yang Jian's mother and letting their family reunite was not a difficult task.

He was struggling with whether to do so now, or follow the original plan to send the Twelve Golden Immortals to the list and let Haotian release the person as agreed when the Investiture of the Gods ended.

While pondering, he noticed a figure riding a green phoenix coming toward Three Immortals Island.

Looking closely, the person who came was Princess Long Ji.

"Princess Long Ji, why has she come again?" Gu Xiu was a little puzzled about Princess Long Ji's arrival.

After a little thought, he decided to return to his residence to wait for her arrival.

Returning to the courtyard, Gu Xiu sat at the stone table as usual, leisurely tasting tea.

Princess Long Ji drove the green phoenix to the outside of the courtyard with ease, jumped off gracefully, and walked straight into the courtyard.

Gu Xiu spoke slowly, "I wonder, Princess Long Ji, what is the matter that you have come here this time?"

Recently, except for sending Perfected Puxian to the list, there should be nothing that could attract the attention of the Heavenly Court and specifically send Princess Long Ji to deliver news.

Princess Long Ji sat opposite the stone table, looking in a bad mood.

She said indignantly.

"Today, something happened in the Heavenly Court. Immortal Fuyuan went to the Lingxiao Hall to report that I was destined to build unparalleled merits with Hong Jin in the mortal world and leave my name in history. But now that Hong Jin has gone to heaven to take office, he has rebelled against this karma. So Immortal Fuyuan requested the Heavenly Emperor to temporarily remove Hong Jin's divine register and demote him to the mortal world to practice. After his merits are fulfilled, he will return to the Heavenly Court."

After this happened, Princess Long Ji believed that what Gu Xiu said before was all true.

The key was that Hong Jin had already gone to heaven to be invested as a god, yet Immortal Fuyuan did not intend to let him go and planned to demote Hong Jin to the mortal world to build a career.

Hearing this, Gu Xiu frowned slightly. In the Investiture of the Gods, the records about Immortal Fuyuan were only a few strokes, and there was no detailed description at all.

From the current point of view, the other party also wanted to have a plot in the Investiture of the Gods, so he insisted on facilitating the marriage between Hong Jin and Princess Long Ji.

"What is the Heavenly Emperor's attitude? Did he agree to Immortal Fuyuan's proposal?" Gu Xiu asked casually.

"The Heavenly Emperor naturally did not agree. The Heavenly Emperor said that the Heavenly Court strictly forbids romantic feelings and seven emotions and six desires, and rejected Immortal Fuyuan's proposal. But I am still angry, so I can only come to find you."

Gu Xiu thought to himself, in the original destiny, Immortal Fuyuan and the Old Man of the Moon hid it from the Heavenly Court, secretly messed up the marriage line of Hong Jin and Princess Long Ji, and ordered Jiang Ziya to arrange for the two to have a fait accompli.

Afterwards, they were listed and invested as gods, and Haotian could do nothing about it.

Seeing Long Ji full of anger, her eyes full of resentment.

Gu Xiu smiled, "Immortal Fuyuan insisted on involving Hong Jin with you, he must have other motives. You don't need to pay attention to it for now. If you find something wrong, you can come to find me again."

Hearing this, Princess Long Ji raised her hand.

"This red thread suddenly appeared on my wrist when I came down to the mortal world just now. It seems to be connected to the other end, and no matter how I pull it, it won't break. Could this be the marriage thread?" Princess Long Ji showed the marriage red thread in her hand.

Gu Xiu took a look and nodded, "It is indeed the marriage thread. It seems that Immortal Fuyuan and the Old Man of the Moon have forcibly pulled the marriage thread for you and Hong Jin."

Princess Long Ji raised her eyebrows, "So what should I do now? Gu Xiu, you can help me, right?"

Gu Xiu's expression was indifferent, "Anyone who reaches Da Luo Golden Immortal can transcend the world and not be bound by these things. It's a pity that your cultivation is still shallow. But if you want, I can forcibly break them."

"Then hurry up. Ever since I had this red thread, I always feel that there is something at the other end, and I feel uncomfortable all over." Princess Long Ji reached out and urged.

Gu Xiu shook his head. There were really too many troublesome things. Not only did he have to manage the Investiture of the Gods, but he also had to help his disciple rescue his mother, and now he even had to intervene in other people's marriage.

"Don't worry, I'll just break it for you."

Having said that, Gu Xiu operated the power of laws and cut off the marriage red thread connected to Princess Long Ji's wrist.

Princess Long Ji raised her hand and saw that the red thread on her wrist had disappeared, and her face immediately showed joy.

"Thank you, this time I owe you a favor."

Princess Long Ji's favor was of no use at all. Gu Xiu didn't take it to heart and said, "Goddess Nuwa is the one who manages the marriage of all spirits. It's just that Goddess Nuwa doesn't ask about worldly affairs, so she divided the power to Immortal Fuyuan and the Old Man of the Moon. They must have motives for doing so. I hope you will go back and investigate carefully."

Getting Gu Xiu's reminder, Princess Long Ji's expression became stern, "How dare they plot against me! When I go back, I will definitely not let them off easily!"

At this time,

Heavenly Realm.

In a place surrounded by immortal mist, several simple houses built of thatch sat quietly in front of a bamboo forest.

The Old Man of the Moon was sitting at a table, fiddling with two small figures, and the marriage red thread was connected between the small figures.

Suddenly, the marriage red thread broke without warning, and the Old Man of the Moon was instantly backlashed and spat out a mouthful of blood.

"What's going on?" Immortal Fuyuan on the side asked hurriedly when he saw this.

"The marriage thread on Princess Long Ji was cut off by someone." The Old Man of the Moon's face was pale.

"There is such a thing..." Immortal Fuyuan stepped forward to check and found that what the Old Man of the Moon said was true, and frowned slightly, "Who is so bold as to dare to cut off the marriage thread on Princess Long Ji?"

The Old Man of the Moon said weakly, "Immortal, what should we do now?"

"You take a breath and investigate carefully what is going on. When you have the result, come and tell me."

"Yes."

Immortal Fuyuan's face was livid.

"It's fine that Hong Jin suddenly went to heaven to take office and disrupted the original plan, but I didn't expect someone to help Princess Long Ji. If I find out who it is, I will definitely match his marriage thread with a sow. It's so infuriating!" ===== CHAPTER 390 =====
