Chapter 629: Must Rely on Talent [Fifth update, requesting monthly tickets]

"A Soul Transformation Realm sword cultivator from another prefecture sensed the existence of the Immortal Tomb and slashed down with a sword, disrupting the Qi of the Immortal Tomb."

In the Imperial Study.

Grand Secretary Zhang said.

Sword cultivators are the most unreasonable type of people among all cultivators.

They always act according to their own hearts, regardless of causality, so they are the hardest to deal with.

Fairy Qingluan is a very good example.

The Holy Emperor frowned.

The appearance of a Soul Transformation Realm sword cultivator of unknown identity could be a near-destructive blow to the Yu Kingdom.

Fortunately, this time it was aimed at the Immortal Tomb.

At this time.

Another person walked into the Imperial Study.

It was Li Rui: "Your Majesty, it has been verified that the sword cultivator is from the Southern Zhengyang Prefecture; perhaps the aura of the Immortal Tomb leaked, and that's how he discovered it."

Southern Zhengyang Prefecture?

The Holy Emperor's eyes narrowed upon hearing this name.

This prefecture was too famous.

Although it was not far from Taihua Prefecture, and both were located in the south of the fourteen prefectures, this Southern Zhengyang Prefecture was far too fierce.

The most special thing was that the entire prefecture consisted of sword cultivators.

The Immortal Sects were sword-dao Immortal Sects, and the Immortal Dynasties were sword-dao Immortal Dynasties.

They were always unreasonable to outsiders.

Even the number one sword cultivator Daoist Ancestor in the cultivation world was in Southern Zhengyang Prefecture.

When cultivators from Southern Zhengyang Prefecture went out, others would avoid them like avoiding a plague god; no one wanted to provoke them.

Grand Secretary Zhang pondered: "It should still be because of the move made by Wan Fadian that time; the Immortal Tomb's abnormality allowed cultivators from other prefectures to discover clues, which is why they made a move."

Li Rui nodded.

The "move" Grand Secretary Zhang spoke of was naturally the rebellion of Zhu Kang joining forces with Wan Fadian.

Although this matter had been quelled.

And a group of Heaven-Human experts from Wan Fadian had been killed, and even the Extinction True Person had fallen because of it.

But the influence was extremely far-reaching.

Wan Fadian wanted the Immortal Tomb's abnormality to muddy the waters completely.

After all, when it came to fishing in troubled waters, Wan Fadian was full of talent.

The goal had been achieved.

The Holy Emperor looked at Li Rui: "Changqing, the Immortal Tomb is a major matter. I am worried that Dingting cannot support it alone. You should head south to help Dingting."

"Alright."

Li Rui agreed without hesitation.

He was naturally extremely concerned about the situation at the Immortal Tomb.

Even without the Holy Emperor's words, he would have gone to take a look anyway.

No dragging of feet.

That very day, he took Liu Tiezhu, Wang Zhao, and Ning Zhongtian south, taking a flying boat to the Qinghe Enclosure.

Returning again.

The Qinghe Enclosure had changed its appearance, becoming a huge military camp.

The guards at the gate were old men from the Annan Town, so they naturally knew Li Rui.

Seeing Li Rui appear, they didn't dare to stop him and respectfully led Li Rui to the central tent, saying as they walked: "Lord Li, I used to be a soldier in Annan Town, and I've been doing it for decades, right in the Anning Guard."

Li Rui looked at the guard and smiled slightly: "I know, your name is Zhang Hu, right?"

Hearing that the Imperial Observatory Supervisor could call his name, the old soldier's eyes widened, followed by overflowing pride: "Everyone in the Anning Guard misses Lord Li very much and hopes that you will return to Qinghe to take a look."

"I will go when I have time."

Li Rui thought that he really hadn't been back for a while.

While speaking.

The two arrived in front of a large tent.

The old soldier said respectfully: "Prince Yuan is inside."

"Alright, you go back first; I have noted the matters of the Anning Guard."

Li Rui said, lifting the curtain and walking in.

Leaving only the old soldier outside, excited.

Yuan Dingting was alone in the tent.

Seeing Yuan Dingting again, this Great Yu Military Saint now had a bit of restrained sharpness, hiding his edge very well. ===== CHAPTER 630 =====
