At this time, they didn't leave too far, just flew to a hundred miles away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly feeling that they had broken into some sword array, the sword qi soared to the sky, and the Snow Listening Pavilion strong people who entered were caught off guard and dodged in all directions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were shadows around, and suddenly a group of people in black surrounded them: \"Since you have discovered our secret, then don't leave.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Snow Listening Pavilion crowd: \"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We just broke into the sword array by mistake, and we didn't discover any of your secrets.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, this group of people was clearly some demonic path people, doing secret work below. Triggering the sword array was no different from the secret being peeped, and it was normal to want to silence them. Demonic path people were just like this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Snow Listening Pavilion Master Wei Linfeng still tried to explain: \"Everyone, misunderstanding, we are just passing by. We are the Snow Listening Pavilion, everyone should think clearly, whether to create such a big enemy...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a result, the people in black didn't care at all, \"swish swish swish\" ten thousand swords were fired together, and all kinds of big moves and magic treasures were thrown over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei Linfeng had half of his words pressed back into his throat, hurriedly blocked a sword light, and felt a chill in his heart: \"First grade!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just bumping into a group of demonic path disciples and it's first grade?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Coupled with the sword array siege, isn't this an accident, but a deliberate ambush?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whether it was an accident or deliberate, this battle was not easy to fight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei Linfeng participated in the Shadow Moon Sect civil strife, and was secretly brought in. The number of people who could be brought in was naturally not many, a total of four including himself. And the other side had more than ten people, each of them top three grade, with a first-grade leader, plus the pre-buried sword array...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Snow Listening Pavilion crowd rose to resist, and after not fighting for long, everyone was already injured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei Linfeng even recognized the identity of the person who came: \"Ice Prison Sect...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Due to different systems and different \"intensity of suppressing demons,\" the demonic path of the Frost Nation was not suppressed and hiding like Great Gan. On the contrary, they openly had bases, and their power was very great, and the righteous sects had no good way to deal with them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Ice Prison Sect was one of the most famous branches, and its overall strength was not much worse than their Snow Listening Pavilion. Once they were wiped out here, the overall strength would be able to suppress the Snow Listening Pavilion, and they would not be afraid of retaliation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If this continues, Wei Linfeng himself might have a chance to escape the encirclement, but the few left and right arms of his subordinates were bound to break here...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei Linfeng's heart was bleeding. If he had known not to involve himself in the Shadow Moon Sect's change, this tumble would be a big one...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Senior brother, don't worry about us, run away yourself! Avenge us in the future!\" The loyal junior brother shouted from behind: \"This matter might be Si Han hooking up with the demonic path, retaliating against us! If you also die here, who will investigate the truth and return us justice?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei Linfeng gritted his teeth and was about to break out of the encirclement desperately, when pressure suddenly descended from above.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The vast pressure of divine sense shrouded the entire battlefield, and a light hum sounded in everyone's ears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the hum was light, it exploded in the heart like a yellow bell and a great drum, making everyone feel uncomfortable and their blood surging, and the battle stopped unconsciously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Images floated in everyone's heart, as if Ye Tinglan was sitting cross-legged and closing her eyes and hovering in front, and slowly opened her eyes, with light shining everywhere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pressure at that moment was like a mountain, and some people even broke out in cold sweat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Tinglan's voice transmission sounded at this time: \"What are you stunned for? Go.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei Linfeng woke up like a dream and quickly took his junior brothers away: \"Holy Master's great kindness, Snow Listening Pavilion will keep it in mind.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the Ice Prison Sect crowd reacted and wanted to chase, it was clearly not cost-effective.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Ice Prison Sect leader turned to look again, and Ye Tinglan's divine descent had disappeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Damn, cheated by this woman, she descended from a distance, can't exert too much, we can completely kill those few in the Snow Listening Pavilion under pressure...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Forget it, leave a line with the Tianyao Holy Land, offending the Snow Listening Pavilion and offending the Tianyao Holy Land are not the same concept. Let's go, this matter is not over yet...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Over there, Ye Tinglan opened her eyes and looked at Lu Xingzhou in front of her, her expression extremely complicated: \"You...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xingzhou smiled slightly: \"Praise is unnecessary, how about a reward?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Tinglan pretended to hit him: \"I'll reward you with a head full of bags!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xingzhou grabbed her hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Tinglan actually forgot to pinch, turned her head and said: \"The Snow Listening Pavilion was indeed ambushed by the Ice Prison Sect. If I arrived a little later, I am afraid that only the Snow Listening Pavilion Master would break out, his left and right arms would be lost, and the Snow Listening Pavilion would fall from then on.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What is the attribute of the Ice Prison Sect?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Demonic path.\" Ye Tinglan's expression was complicated: \"You guessed right, Si Han has hooked up with the demonic path, and this hooking up is in the dark, leaving no evidence on the surface, just making it look like the Snow Listening Pavilion broke into the Ice Prison Sect sword array by mistake and was silenced... Si Han's approach is no different from Gu Zhanting in essence.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So it is said that respecting heroes has a price... The kind of hero you want seems not to exist.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Tinglan looked at him fixedly: \"What about you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Me? I am a demonic path disciple, and I never want to be a hero. However...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you want me to be?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Tinglan looked into his eyes: \"What if I say I want to?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xingzhou laughed: \"What about the benefits?\" Just asking this question meant there was no hero to speak of, Ye Tinglan threw his hand away angrily: \"Still have to enter the hall to see people, what kind of system is this!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After speaking, she flicked her sleeves and turned to walk towards the Shadow Moon Sect hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xingzhou followed behind with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the hall, Si Han and others were sitting uneasily. The Tianyao Holy Master was ultimately the Imperial Preceptor of Great Gan, naturally in the same group as Great Gan. I don't know if she would change her mind after a few words from Gu Shaoli.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just a Gu Shaoli was enough to make the Shadow Moon Sect extremely uncomfortable. Once Ye Tinglan also stood on the opposite side, the Shadow Moon Sect could be directly wiped out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Ye Tinglan bring Lu Xingzhou into the hall, but Gu Shaoli was gone. Si Han let out a long breath, stood up and bowed: \"Holy Master's kindness of helping today, and the grace of saving life, Si Han will never forget. In the future, if the Holy Master has any orders, I will not frown even if it is a mountain of knives or a sea of fire.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Tinglan pointed to Lu Xingzhou: \"Thank him, if it weren't for his proposal, I wouldn't have come here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xingzhou whispered in her ear: \"Using your senior sister's name to cheat again?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Tinglan didn't expect this sentence to come suddenly, and the little angry mood disappeared instantly, almost laughing, her eyes slightly curved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shadow Moon Sect crowd: \"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I heard that after the glacier battle yesterday, the Tianyao Holy Master disappeared with the little milk dog. Now it seems that this little milk dog is really favored by the Holy Master, not to mention lifting him up in front of so many people, but also flirting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That...\" Si Han coughed twice and gave up the main seat: \"Please sit on the main seat, Holy Master.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Tinglan was not polite, really sat on the main seat, and turned to Lu Xingzhou: \"Sit beside me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The hall was quiet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This so-called main seat is actually the throne.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That is to say, the ritual system of the Frost Nation is rough, and there is no such obvious throne appearance, but it should be roughly imaginable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Tinglan sat so openly, which can be considered a hint of what her intention for coming here is.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She is not purely kind-hearted to do a good deed and leave. Saving your entire sect has political intentions in it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Si Han had already figured it out, and soon said: \"I don't know what instructions the Holy Master has, the Frost Nation will try its best to satisfy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Tinglan looked at Lu Xingzhou.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xingzhou coughed twice and asked for Ye Tinglan: \"Although the Frost Nation is said to be a sect alliance system, at least there should be full-time positions responsible for the connection and resource flow of various sects, belonging to the royal court, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Si Han said: \"Indeed, in fact, our alliance is not as rough as outsiders imagine. Over the years, many positions have been gradually established. Many of these positions are responsible by people from other sects, not under our Shadow Moon Sect's jurisdiction.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xingzhou said: \"If the Tianyao Holy Land requires some positions in such places, and establishes a Tianyao Temple in Shadow Moon City, does Sovereign Si agree?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Si Han didn't answer immediately, but said: \"With the strength and sect model of our Frost Nation, in fact, the Tianyao Holy Land can directly unify the Frost Nation, and Si is willing to follow.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xingzhou said: \"The Tianyao Holy Land does not interfere in secular political power. On the contrary, if there are children in the Frost Nation who want to join the Tianyao Holy Land, the Tianyao Holy Land is willing to accept disciples if they can pass the assessment. Please Sovereign Si inform the Frost Nation of this information.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Si Han was stunned, his face changed slightly: \"Can the Young Master's words represent the Holy Master?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Tinglan was expressionless: \"This seat is sitting here, you say can it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Si Han pursed his lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many high-level members of the Shadow Moon Sect in the hall didn't understand the meaning contained here for a while, and most of them showed joy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Tianyao Holy Land is a real holy land, and I don't know how many super-grade techniques are in it, and there is definitely more than one super-grade cultivator, and the top three grades are car-loaded and bucket-measured. Compared with other so-called first-grade strong sects, it is not at the same level at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cultivation is difficult. Besides talent, luck, etc., the most important thing is the monopoly and scarcity of techniques and high-end resources. Yanluo Hall, such a newly emerging first-grade strong sect, as long as Yuan Muyu dares not leak the techniques of the Tianyao Holy Land, she can't give her little man high-grade techniques, which can be seen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, the Tianyao Holy Land absolutely cannot accept these adult cultivators whose three views have been formed and who have huge political tendencies behind them, and will only choose minors to accept as disciples. And the threshold for this first batch of disciples facing the Frost Nation will definitely not be so strict, and many Shadow Moon Sect high-level members have already started to select which of their own cubs are suitable in their hearts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only Si Han thought that in fact, there are already disciples from the Frost Nation in the Tianyao Holy Land, but there was no such clear distinction before. Now that the Tianyao Temple is established, the disciples of the Tianyao Holy Land who originally belonged to the Frost Nation will insert their positions, and the network of relatives and friends will be spread out, and the Tianyao Holy Land will be able to exert a significant influence on the entire Frost Nation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And after a few years, there will be a large number of disciples from the Holy Land who will be out of the school and sit in important positions in the Frost Nation. What will the pattern be at that time?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is to turn the Tianyao Holy Land into the holy land of the Frost Nation. It won't take a few years, and even now it has a say.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His secret layout has become a joke under the pressure of the Tianyao Holy Land.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the temptation of the Holy Land is there, Si Han knows that he cannot refuse. Once he refuses, even his elders who were very loyal just now will not stand on his side this time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Can only agree... In fact, it is nothing to agree. At least the Tianyao Holy Land does not involve political power, which has been verified in Great Gan. At that time, the Frost Nation will be supported by the Holy Land, so why can't it become another Great Gan, or even replace Great Gan?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It's just hell, the Tianyao Holy Land hasn't always had this level of interaction only with Great Gan, when did it start to have the pattern of extending its tentacles to various countries?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Si Han's eyes fell on Lu Xingzhou.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because of a little milk dog?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>(End of this chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",2364,"2026-06-18T01:46:10.354Z","2026-06-18T03:18:02.290Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","ef3323aae499b63538f09afbd3a3d5afc76b62209f61032b3b4d4c512f2034a3","the-grain-of-mountains-and-rivers-chapter-222","the-grain-of-mountains-and-rivers-chapter-220",325,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fmountains-and-rivers-of-the-imperial-granary-cover.jpg"]
