Chapter 312: The Simple Longji
Princess Longji was too understanding and too simple, simple enough to make Yin Qi's heart ache.
He hugged her tightly and said softly: "Don't blame yourself; if I had told you this secret earlier, you wouldn't have misunderstood me. In the end, it was my fault."
Princess Longji also hugged Yin Qi tightly, stubborn: "No, it was my fault; how could I doubt you."
Yin Qi stroked her back and smiled lightly: "You have a fault, and I have a fault. In this way, we are even. Let this matter end here."
Princess Longji nodded obediently: "Mm-hmm!"
"Xuanxuan, fortunately you were here this time, otherwise I would have been in danger. When did you come? I didn't even discover you."
"I arrived when you were fighting the Red Yi army."
"Oh. Let me tell you a secret: actually, the Red Yi Ancestral Hall was destroyed by me, but it is also true that a demon race expert came to seek revenge. It's just that that Golden-Crowned Crow was schemed against by the Red Yi Great Priest and was quickly beheaded. I subsequently made a move to destroy the Red Yi Ancestral Hall and tampered with the heavenly secrets around it, creating the illusion that they died together."
"Yin Lang, you are truly amazing. Such means, many Great Luo Golden Immortals cannot do."
"That's right, otherwise how could I have gained your favor."
……
The two embraced, whispering sweet nothings.
Princess Longji felt her heart almost melting; she was too happy.
The sun set in the west, and the red clouds filled the sky.
Yin Qi said: "Xuanxuan, we should go back; are you going back to the military camp with me, or back to Phoenix Mountain?"
Princess Longji said: "The Witch race cannot be trusted; I will protect you from the shadows. When you are about to return to the Great Shang, I will go back to Phoenix Mountain."
Yin Qi nodded: "That's fine. By the way, Xuanxuan, I have a gift I want to give you?"
"What gift?"
Princess Longji got up from Yin Qi's arms, her beautiful eyes full of joy and anticipation.
The gift didn't need to be precious; what she wanted was this intention.
"This!"
Yin Qi took out a crystal ball, which was the physical cultivation crystal of the Eastern Yi Great Priest Wu Yuan, and said: "This is a Heavenly Immortal Pill; as long as you refine it, you can possess a mid-stage Heavenly Immortal realm physical body."
The beauty's feelings were heavy, so he naturally wouldn't be stingy.
Although Princess Longji was a peak Mysterious Immortal, her physical body was barely at the Earth Immortal level.
"You have such a supreme immortal pill!"
Princess Longji was secretly shocked, but she suddenly thought of something and hurriedly shook her head: "No, no, keep it for yourself to use. Even if I take this Heavenly Immortal Pill, it won't be of much use to me."
Yin Qi stuffed the crystal into her hand and smiled: "Silly girl, I have already taken it, otherwise where do you think my physical body realm came from? If you possess a mid-stage Heavenly Immortal physical body, in the future, if you are ambushed, you won't be hurt."
"Alright then."
Princess Longji heard this and then happily accepted it.
"Let's go, let's go back!"
"Good!"
………
When they returned to the military camp, the sun had not yet set.
The soldiers who were chasing and killing the Eastern Yi remnants also returned fully loaded.
Yin Qi returned to the military camp and naturally received a warm welcome from his clone and the Fengyun Sect and others, because if it weren't for the original body making a move, how could they have crushed the Eastern Yi allied forces in one battle.
Yin Qi's clone pretended to be puzzled: "Immortal Elder, where is that fairy?"
The Fengyun Sect and others also looked at Yin Qi's original body one after another.
That was a Mysterious Immortal.
Yin Qi's original body smiled indifferently: "She had some matters, so she left first."
Yin Qi's clone said regretfully: "The fairy has already left; I wanted to thank her in person. I truly didn't expect that the Eastern Yi Sacred Hall would actually hide a Mysterious Witch, so this war can only end here.
Marquis, what we need to do next is to build a pass and at the same time clear out the remnants in the newly occupied area.
I will write a battle report tonight and send it back to Zhaoge to ask the Royal Father how to handle this newly occupied territory.
Of course, I will also write down the contributions of you all truthfully."
"Many thanks, Your Highness!"
The Fengyun Sect and others bowed in salute one after another.
Destroying an Eastern Yi branch and expanding the territory by sixty thousand li—what a sky-high merit!
……
Great Shang.
Zhaoge.
Under the illumination of the morning sun, the Golden Throne Hall looked even more dazzling, like a divine palace.
"Enter the class!"
"Greetings, Great King!"
"All ministers, rise!"
"Many thanks, Great King!"
Di Yi sat on the dragon throne, his face full of majesty, but his eyes held uncontrollable joy, and he said loudly: "All ministers, I have a huge piece of good news to share with you."
The civil and military officials all raised their eyebrows and looked at Di Yi unexpectedly.
Di Yi raised the battle report in his hand and said: "This is the battle report sent back by Yin Qi yesterday. As of now, he has already swept away the Red Yi tribe, and at the same time defeated the Eastern Yi seven-branch allied forces, expanding the territory by sixty thousand li. Killing a million enemies, capturing countless spoils."
Di Yi's words were like throwing a bomb.
The entire hall was boiling.
"What, Qi King actually defeated the Eastern Yi seven-branch allied forces; how is this possible?"
"I thought Qi King was greedy for merit and rash, but I didn't expect him to be so confident; but how did he do it?"
"Heavens, such sky-high merit—does this second assessment still need to be compared?"
"I truly did not expect that Qi King's attainments in military matters are not inferior to state affairs; he is simply an all-around talent!"
……
The news of Yin Qi leading the army to defeat the Red Yi army had already spread throughout Zhaoge.
Even the news of invading the Taiyuan Mountain Domain was known later.
At that time, in Zhaoge City, I don't know how many people sighed, how many people gloated, feeling that Yin Qi was greedy for merit and rash, had been blinded by victory, and would definitely return in defeat.
Yet they did not expect that Yin Qi would win again, completely illogical!
"Silence!"
Di Yi drank lightly, and seeing that the hall was quiet, he continued: "This time, destroying the Red Yi and expanding the territory by sixty thousand li—how should this merit be rewarded? Also, how should this newly occupied territory be handled?"
In the hall, many people's eyes lit up upon hearing this.
The Yin Shang practiced the feudal system, and this new territory would certainly be divided up.
This was a big piece of fat meat.
…………
Eastern Lu, outside the Taiyuan Mountain Domain.
Yin Shang allied forces.
Commander's Camp.
"Impossible, how is this possible!"
Yin Shou widened his eyes, his fists clenched, revealing a look of horror.
He could not believe, nor dared to believe, that Yin Qi's invasion of the Taiyuan Mountain Domain had not failed, and that he had actually crushed the Eastern Yi seven-branch allied forces, expanding the territory by sixty thousand li; this was simply a fantasy.
He prided himself on having read many military books and being proficient in war strategies, but after six months of bitter fighting, he had only gained a weak advantage, forcing the Feng Yi army back by only a few hundred li.
If talking about the number of beheadings, it was even less.
This battle record compared to Yin Qi's was simply insignificant; how could he accept this?
His confidence, his pride.
At this moment, it seemed to have all been smashed to pieces.
Eastern Marquis Jiang Huanchu sighed: "This is all true; the Eastern states have already spread it, and the First Prince has already reported it to the imperial court. It's just that I am very puzzled about one thing: who destroyed the Red Yi Ancestral Hall?"
He was clear about the situation of the various Eastern Yi halls and knew that the Red Yi Ancestor had four Earth Witches, that is, four Earth Immortals.
But those above the Immortal realm were not allowed to intervene in the wars of mortals, so how could the Red Yi Ancestral Hall be destroyed?
But if it weren't destroyed, would they have watched the Red Yi be destroyed?
Suddenly, he thought of something, and a brilliant light appeared in his eyes. ===== CHAPTER 313 =====
