Chapter 674: Accompany You Back to Fenghai County

~12 min read 2,317 words

The moment he walked into the shop, the captain casually threw the old man from Banquan Road, who was in a coma, onto the ground, then came to Xu Qing, hugged Xu Qing's neck, and laughed proudly.

"Little Ah Qing, guess what happened when I met my ex-wife this time."

Xu Qing ignored him. The captain looked at the old man from Banquan Road on the side, while Linger had already run over after an exclamation, helped him up, her expression filled with disbelief and worry, calling out, and even took out many elixirs and sent them into the old man's mouth.

"Father!" The efficacy of these elixirs was not bad, and there were even difficulty-resolving elixirs inside, so the old man's aura soon stabilized.

Xu Qing also withdrew his gaze. He could see that most of the injuries were skin injuries, not like being beaten, but more like stumbling. As for the reason for the coma, it was because he had been invaded by the Red Moon curse. Afterward, although the curse dissipated, more alien quality was mixed in. Most importantly, his constitution was special.

His constitution seemed to attract the integration of alien quality even more.

This point was also seen by Xu Qing based on his current cultivation level, and at the same time, it reminded him of the battle with the other party when he was at Seven Blood Eyes. At that time, the old man's face cracked, revealing his alien identity.

In addition, the other party's inn was also strange. Afterward, Xu Qing learned that this old man had an ability that could make strange things fall asleep and then seal them.

That inn was moved by him to Seven Blood Eyes and sold to the First Peak.

And the captain's initial seal was also blessed by this inn old man.

Xu Qing was thoughtful, but the old man was generally fine, so he didn't pay too much attention, but his gaze fell on the captain.

Looking at the senior brother who was full of expectation and needed his own inquiry and cooperation, Xu Qing asked a sentence.

"Looking for you to get back together?"

The captain's eyes lit up, and he laughed proudly. He was waiting for Xu Qing to ask, so he didn't have to talk to himself and could take the opportunity to continue the words.

"Little Junior Brother, you are indeed smart. That's right, that's it. Although she is a god, although she promised that as long as I agree, I can struggle for ten thousand years less, that's right, but in the end, I still chose to refuse."

"The things of the past life have gone with the wind. In this life, I don't love wealth, I don't love power, I only love my Big Peach Peach." The captain had a sighing look, but the showing off in his expression was incomparably obvious.

Xu Qing naturally knew that the captain's words should be listened to in reverse, but the truth was not important; as long as the senior brother was happy, it was enough.

Thus, he twitched his face and put on an expression of exclamation.

The captain was even happier and was about to continue bragging when the old man from Banquan Road lying there spat out a mouthful of turbid air and opened his eyes.

"Father!"

Linger was pleasantly surprised, and her little face couldn't help but rise with some nervousness. Linger had secretly run out back then.

Xu Qing and the others also looked at the old man from Banquan Road.

The old man's eyes were first blank. Clearly, he was very puzzled about appearing here. Then, after seeing Linger clearly, his emotions fluctuated.

"Linger, I finally found you." The old man from Banquan Road was excited, hugged Linger, noticed that his daughter was fine, and finally felt relieved in his heart. Afterward, his gaze swept across this inn, saw the captain, saw Xiang Ningyan, saw Wu Jianwu, and saw You Jing.

The first few were fine, but You Jing made him feel a shock in his heart.

When he saw Xu Qing, his eyes widened, and he was about to speak with unkindness, but his peripheral vision swept to the Crown Prince who was drinking tea.

The old man's eyes suddenly widened, then his pupils contracted, his arrogance instinctively converged, and he subconsciously asked Linger a sentence.

"Linger, where is this?"

"This is the Kusheng Mountain Range, Father. This is Crown Prince Grandfather."

Linger noticed her father's gaze and introduced him quickly.

The old man from Banquan Road was no longer the same as when he first arrived at the Festival Moon. In the process of looking for Linger, he naturally knew about the divine war. Although Xu Qing and the captain's names were not obvious and could only be known by the Reverse Moon Temple, he had heard the legends of the Sovereign Crown Prince and his brothers and sisters.

He knew about the Kusheng Mountain Range and understood that it had become the highest core of this great domain.

Thus, Linger's words made the old man's eyelids jump wildly.

And in order to cover up that she had stolen away with Xu Qing back then, Linger's words kept coming out.

"Father, it used to be very lively here. There were Third Grandmother, Fifth Grandmother, and Eighth Grandfather. They were all very good to me."

"By the way, there are some little chicks in the backyard."

"Father, I am very good here. This medicine shop was opened by me and Brother Xu Qing."

The old man's heart roared with thunder. Besides hearing about the Kusheng Mountain Range, he had also heard about the medicine shop inside the Kusheng Mountain Range that was almost like a holy land.

At this moment, learning that the source of the medicine shop was like this, his body was shaking, and his breathing was not smooth.

"And Father, it is very safe here. I am fine. Brother Xu Qing even gave me some gifts." As she spoke, Linger raised her hand and scattered some of the Ancient Xiang Linger Imperial Qi integrated into her body.

"And also, Brother Xu Qing is super powerful. Before, when Red Mother arrived and surrounded this place, it was Brother Xu Qing who beat them away. Later, Brother Xu Qing and the grandfathers and grandmothers even went to the moon and wiped out Red Mother!"

Linger said proudly.

It was just that her continuous words were one thunderclap after another to her father, eventually exploding like a million heavenly thunders, roaring in his soul.

And the old man also quickly reacted to the identities of the other grandfathers and grandmothers Linger mentioned, which made him gasp even more, not daring to continue listening, and quickly climbed up and bowed to the Crown Prince.

"Greetings, Senior!"

The Crown Prince nodded slightly, his gaze sweeping over the old man from Banquan Road.

"Ancient Sealing Clan? This clan exists with Imperial Qi. Every generation of Ancient Emperors had a sealing position beside them, borrowing Imperial Qi to seal the heavens, with a very high status, but your bloodline here seems a bit impure."

The old man lowered his head and said bitterly.

"After the gods descended, our clan also changed accordingly. Sealing turned into Sealing Nether, and there were no more Ancient Emperors in the world, so there was no place for our clan to be useful."

"So, you chose Linger?"

The Crown Prince looked at Linger.

At this time, Linger's eyelids were somewhat unable to open for some reason, and she didn't quite understand the meaning inside. She tried her best to cheer up and yawned.

The old man from Banquan Road was shocked when he saw this. Xu Qing walked over in one step, supported Linger, checked, and confirmed that Linger was fine.

It was the strand of Imperial Qi integrated into her body that was deeply merging with Linger.

The Crown Prince smiled and didn't speak anymore, continuing to drink tea.

The old man from Banquan Road felt relieved in his heart when he saw this. Facing the Crown Prince, his pressure was immense.

At this moment, he looked at Xu Qing. The original unkindness and complaints had long been deeply hidden by him, turning into a sigh.

"Xu Qing, my arrival this time is not just for the purpose of finding Linger. There is also Yao Hou who asked me to pass a message to you... Do not return to Fenghai County for a short time."

Xu Qing's expression was normal, but after hearing this sentence, brilliance suddenly appeared in his eyes. The captain on the side also frowned, his whole body emitting pressure.

"Yao Hou?"

Xu Qing spoke slowly.

"What happened in Fenghai County?"

Banquan Road sighed and told in detail what had happened in Fenghai County and even the Saint Lan Great Domain during the time Xu Qing left.

When Xu Qing, the captain, and others left, the situation in the Saint Lan Great Domain was in a certain degree of balance.

One side was the Saint Lan Grand Duke. After losing the backing of the Black Heaven Clan, he immediately chose to return to the Human Clan, submit to the Human Emperor, and dared not act recklessly.

But the Seventh Prince's army still existed, occupying half of the great domain, while the Third Princess was ordered to govern here to balance the Seventh Prince.

Because of what happened in the past, Fenghai County became very special and possessed the power of autonomy, so it survived in this balance and was safe.

And all of this, with the undercurrents in the Imperial Capital, appeared to have drastic changes.

First, the Third Princess was suddenly recalled to the Imperial Capital Great Domain, gave up the governing power of the Saint Lan Great Domain, and handed everything over to the Seventh Prince.

The reason for this was also quickly known by Fenghai County.

The Seventh Prince's maternal clan was not simple in the Imperial Capital Great Domain and had reached an agreement with the Human Emperor regarding the Seventh Prince's affairs.

In the end, the Human Emperor recalled the Third Princess and acquiesced to the Seventh Prince's status and rights in the Saint Lan Great Domain.

At the same time, a person arrived in the Imperial Capital Great Domain to sit in the Saint Lan Great Domain.

This person was one of the pillars of the Seventh Prince's maternal clan, the Seventh Prince's own uncle, and one of the Human Clan's Thirty-Three Heavenly Kings, the Heavenly Lan King.

His cultivation was in the Xiang Linger-Storing Realm, and his status in the Human Clan was noble.

After he brought troops to descend on the Saint Lan Great Domain, he grasped great power, with an aura of wanting to completely control the Saint Lan Great Domain, and even launched a war against the Black Heaven Clan.

This was his promise to the Human Emperor, and also the agreement between their family and the Human Emperor.

He would open the gates of the Black Heaven Clan for the Human Emperor, sweep across the Black Heaven Clan when it was at its weakest, and expand new territory for the Human Emperor.

Facing the glorious Heavenly Lan King, the Saint Lan Grand Duke also avoided his edge and chose to submit.

As for Fenghai County... although it possessed the power of autonomy, it was insignificant in front of the Heavenly Lan King.

His appearance only needed a decree to make Fenghai County like a leaf on an angry sea, incomparably turbulent. The people in the county were panicked, and many ethnic groups and sect forces chose to submit at the first opportunity.

Among them was the Eight Sect Alliance's General Alliance. He decisively gave up his status and position in the Eight Sect Alliance and took part of his subordinates to defect to the Heavenly Lan King.

Afterward, the Heavenly Lan King ordered the conscription of cultivators of all races in the entire domain, sending them to the Black Heaven Clan battlefield in batches to fight for him.

This also included Fenghai County, and it could not be refused.

"Until I set off, Fenghai County had already sent three batches of cultivators, all of whom died in battle. In this war against the Black Heaven Clan, the Heavenly Lan King completely used human lives to fill it, consuming the Black Heaven Clan."

The old man from Banquan Road's words echoed in the inn. Xu Qing's expression was cold, the captain narrowed his eyes, and the others were silent, especially Xiang Ningyan, who opened his mouth to speak but remained silent in the end.

"It is precisely because of this that Yao Hou asked me to tell you not to return. Once you return... the Seventh Prince will definitely borrow the momentum to conscript you. At that time..."

The old man from Banquan Road was about to sigh at the seriousness of the situation, but after glancing at the Crown Prince drinking tea, his mind recalled the things he had heard, as well as Linger's words just now, and he suddenly felt that he actually didn't need to sigh anymore.

"Uh... that's how it is." The old man from Banquan Road blinked and said in a low voice.

Xu Qing looked up in the direction of Fenghai County, then turned to bow to the Crown Prince.

The Crown Prince put down the teacup and smiled, just about to speak.

But just at this moment, a cold voice echoed in this Kusheng Mountain Range.

"I will go to Fenghai County with you."

This voice was like sword Qi, carrying killing intent, the heavens and earth shook together, winds and clouds surged, and all directions roared.

Upon hearing this, the Crown Prince sighed and picked up the teacup again.

This voice came from Old Nine. ===== CHAPTER 675 =====
