Chapter 289: Rehearsal

Today is to go to the Beizhen Fushi to discuss how to solve the problem of "cultivators entering the capital and possibly causing turmoil." After Hua Changxi teleported back to the Danyuan Secret Realm, she didn't dawdle, went directly out of the secret realm, and then flew down Danyuan Peak, leaving the Medical Department quickly amidst various bright or dark sizing-ups.

At the entrance of the No. 10 Qihuang Pavilion, Tang Yufeng saw Gu Jinfan staring fixedly at Hua Changxi's departing back and walked up with a smile.

"Since the royal family didn't choose to make trouble in the first place, Hua Changxi going to the Beizhen Fushi today is probably just bleeding a little."

As he spoke, his expression was filled with emotion.

"I just didn't expect the royal family to actually lift it high and put it down gently."

In the past, if anyone dared to provoke the royal family, the royal family would definitely use thunderous means to suppress them. Now...... the high imperial power is really beginning to decline, and the rate of decline is even faster than they imagined.

Gu Jinfan's eyes flickered, and she didn't expect it either.

Is the royal family afraid of Hua Changxi?

Of course not.

Admittedly, Hua Changxi is a variable, but compared to the royal family, she still only has the share of being beaten passively now.

The royal family's choice not to pursue it is undoubtedly a wise move.

Although in the current situation of the Medical Department, the royal family's right to speak is still there, but the royal family is weak afterward. Whether it is the Qihuang Pavilion or the core personnel of the Lingjing Pavilion, none of them are royal family members.

That is to say, no matter how the royal family fights, after the Pill Saint Hall recovers in the future, the royal family will not be able to occupy the core position.

In this way, all fighting has lost its meaning.

The royal family's move to suppress Hua Changxi, besides venting their anger, actually cannot harvest any actual benefits. Instead, because of confronting Hua Changxi, they will suffer heavy losses.

She knows that Hua Changxi is very likely the Hall Master of Lingguang Hall. If the royal family really deals with Hua Changxi, Hua Changxi will likely mobilize the Zhu Que Army.

Even if the current Zhu Que Army is not regular enough and the number of people is not large, the Zhu Que Army is one of the four most orthodox armies of the Four Spirit World.

If the royal family confronts the Zhu Que Army, hehe, even if they might have an advantage in the early stage because of the royal family's foundation, the Zhu Que Army is ordered by the Zhu Que Emperor. Once the Zhu Que Emperor appears, it is equivalent to the royal family offending one of the only four Emperors of the Four Spirit World. That is absolutely a devastating disaster for the royal family. Even if the Zhu Que Emperor doesn't pursue it, his followers will not let the royal family go.

Gu Jinfan felt that the royal family had ruled Great Jin for a thousand years and had accumulated some luck, so they didn't make the wrong decision by underestimating Hua Changxi.

She is happy to see the situation where the royal family and Hua Changxi are in peace.

Regardless, because of Hua Changxi's existence, the direction of many things has deviated from the trajectory of the previous life.

Especially this time, the four major holy lands publicly recruiting apprentices can definitely be considered a milestone in pushing the Four Spirit World to fully enter the cultivation era.

The cultivation era has opened, and there will be more and more human cultivators.

After the first spiritual energy tide, when the monster race's strength increases and launches the first beast tide, the human race should not lose as miserably as in the previous life.

As long as the basic board of human cultivators is there, it will not be so easy for outside cultivators to invade.

Seeing that Gu Jinfan didn't speak, Tang Yufeng could only continue on his own: "Hua Changxi was clamoring that day that she didn't want to bear the responsibility of cultivators entering the capital alone. I wonder if the Embroidered Uniform Guard can persuade people from other sacred lands to step forward?"

Gu Jinfan finally had a reaction: "Other holy lands will definitely come forward."

Tang Yufeng was surprised: "You are that certain?"

Gu Jinfan turned to look at him: "What is called a pillar of strength? Since the major holy lands have decided to publicly recruit apprentices, they will definitely bear the corresponding responsibilities."

Tang Yufeng sensed Gu Jinfan's reverence for the major sacred lands and was somewhat surprised, laughing: "It's just that the other three sacred lands are too low-key, and I don't know enough about them. Since they are willing to show themselves now, I must pay close attention to them in the future."

Gu Jinfan's expression moved: "Actually, Hua Changxi...... has the style of a holy land successor, just too maverick."

Tang Yufeng didn't dislike Hua Changxi either; he even admired her somewhat, and sighed along with her: "Yes, they say that those who are too rigid are easily broken. Sometimes I really can't help but break into a cold sweat for her."

Hearing this, Gu Jinfan also sighed in her heart. She still hoped that Hua Changxi, who had changed her early death fate because of her rebirth, could go higher and further.

On the other side, Hua Changxi left the Medical Department and walked straight toward the Beizhen Fushi.

The Beizhen Fushi was easy to find. She had been there with Pang Shaoyu, and also picked up the Fuguang Sword and Fuguang Sword Art found by the Embroidered Uniform Guard from the ruins.

The Beizhen Fushi is adjacent to the Heaven Department. It may be because the Heaven Department manages everything related to the recovery of spiritual energy, and the power is too great, and the royal family is not at ease, so the Beizhen Fushi is placed next to the Heaven Department to facilitate monitoring.

Just as Hua Changxi walked onto the street of the Beizhen Fushi and was about to approach the gate of the yamen, a disturbance appeared at the street corner. She turned to look and saw a team of intimidating cavalry walking toward this side in unison.

These cavalrymen, wearing black armor and wearing Qilin masks, were exuding a rich aura of killing and cutting, making people dare not look directly.

Demon-Suppressing Army!

The Heaven Department is next door, and the Demon-Suppressing Army appearing on the street is not surprising, but Hua Changxi still showed a look of surprise on her face.

For no other reason than the Demon-Suppressing Army openly escorted a huge tiger monster, and it was a Nascent Soul stage monster beast!

Although the tiger monster was tied with iron chains and was covered in wounds, would the Demon-Suppressing Army not be afraid that the tiger monster would suddenly erupt and hurt the people of the capital by parading it like this?

"Is this the monster beast that appeared in Nanxiang County and ate up several villages and towns?"

As soon as the tiger monster appeared, many Embroidered Uniform Guards ran out of the Beizhen Fushi yamen.

"It seems it should be."

"It has to be the Demon-Suppressing Army. This shot caught the tiger monster."

"I heard that in the past few months, many monster beasts have appeared in Nanxiang County, and many people have died."

"Not just Nanxiang County, many places outside the capital have appeared with big monsters, eating people everywhere. As long as there are monster beasts, people die in large patches. Now only the capital is slightly peaceful."

Hua Changxi listened to the discussion of the Embroidered Uniform Guards, and her brows furrowed. Are various places already this chaotic?

"Roar~"

A harsh beast roar pulled Hua Changxi's thoughts back.

Hua Changxi looked for the sound and saw that the tiger monster locked by the iron chain really erupted, dealing with the attack of the Demon-Suppressing Army while constantly tearing the thick chains on its body.

I don't know if this batch of Demon-Suppressing Army had just fought before and their strength hadn't recovered, but after the tiger monster erupted, it directly flew a large group of people.

"Whoosh~"

The tiger monster couldn't immediately tear off the chains on its body, opened its huge mouth, and sprayed waterfall-like flames at the crowd on the street.

"Whoosh~"

A colored light circle flew out from the crowd, turned into a colored transparent spiritual cloth, and blocked the flames.

Then, a golden "Town" character flew out, became larger in the air, covered the tiger monster, and pressed the tiger monster firmly on the ground.

The next moment, a huge iron hammer phantomized by spiritual energy flew out and smashed heavily on the tiger monster.

The "crack crack" sound of broken bones kept ringing, and in a blink of an eye, the tiger monster that had just erupted became dying.

At the same time, almost the moment the colored light circle flew out, in a place that the human eye couldn't capture, a long and thin spiritual needle quietly entered the tiger monster's body, directly shattering its monster pill.

The people on the street were scared to death by the sudden eruption of the tiger monster. They thought they were dead, but didn't expect that the tiger monster would die in a blink of an eye.

In the surprise and fright of the people, Jing Le, Tong Yao, and Yan Zhenzhen walked out one after another. The three looked at each other and looked at Hua Changxi outside the Beizhen Fushi yamen at the same time.

Hua Changxi didn't expect that the people sent by the three major holy lands were actually Tong Yao and the others. She nodded to the three, waited for them to walk over, didn't say anything, and turned to step into the Beizhen Fushi yamen together.

Far away from the Embroidered Uniform Guards at the gate, Hua Changxi opened her mouth: "Is making such a scene to test our strength?"

Tong Yao: "It should be a rehearsal. Although the people in the capital are not unfamiliar with cultivators and know that various places are making trouble with monster beasts eating people, they don't know the specific situation, and many people haven't seen it with their own eyes."

"The Demon-Suppressing Army escorted this tiger monster from the South Gate all the way here today, plus the sudden eruption of the tiger monster, it is enough to trigger the fear in the hearts of the people in the capital."

Jing Le also followed: "Having seen the horror of the tiger monster with their own eyes, once outside cultivators have a dispute, it will definitely trigger the panic and resistance of the people in the capital."

Yan Zhenzhen pulled Hua Changxi's sleeve, signaling her to look back.

Hua Changxi looked toward the outside of the yamen and happened to see

Yan Zhenzhen: "That is the First Imperial Prince, Right General of the Demon-Suppressing Army, Chu Junling."

"What just happened wasn't just to ignite panic among the people; it was also to let us see how great the danger of a monster outbreak is, and the danger of cultivators will only be even worse than that of monsters."

"Because once cultivators enter the crowd, they can hide even deeper, and people are even less prepared. If they really commit a crime, it will be even harder to find them."
