Practicing from the Taoist

Chapter 259

Looking at the figure of You Kong being ejected from the big tree, Xu Jin did not hesitate at the moment, and chased after him like lightning. The dagger in his hand drew a bloody glow in the air, and continued to slash at the top of You Kong's head. Go, as if to cut You Kong in half, it seems that there is no intention of holding back at all.

Facing Xu Jin who was following him, the frightened look on You Kong's face became more intense. He was flying upside down, and he had almost no resistance at this moment, and could only watch helplessly as Xu Jin approached quickly. Looking at the short knife with a terrifying bloody light, the blade fell towards the top of his head again.

"Admit defeat, the widow admit defeat!"

Seeing that Xu Jin didn't show any mercy in this knife, You Kong even felt a slight threat of death. At this moment, there was no luck in his heart, and he immediately shouted to admit defeat loudly.

With the sound of You Hong's voice, his figure, which was retreating, suddenly stopped in the void, and Xu Jin, who was close to his figure, also stopped less than half a meter above his head. up.

Looking at You Kong who was still in shock, Xu Jin withdrew the dagger calmly, her breath calmed down quickly, and then said to him in a flat tone.

"Accepted!"

Hearing Xu Jin's words, the surprised look on You Kong's face also subsided a little. He subconsciously stretched out his hand and stroked his back. His palm fell into the void behind him, and he could feel a soft and murderous airflow coming. Dissipated, the eyes suddenly became complicated.

After two or three breaths, You Hong finally regained his composure, and then said to Xu Jin.

"Thank you for your mercy, the confidant who loses will take it!"

At that moment just now, when his figure stopped in the void, You Kong thought it was because he had shouted to admit defeat, so Sheng Huang and others took action to protect him and stop the continuation of the battle, but just now subconsciously With a touch back, You Kong realized that it was Xu Jin who stopped her figure in the void.

This kind of method is actually not very clever, but it proves that Xu Jin has the ability to kill himself just now, even if Xu Jin is willing, he will have no time to shout surrender, and he will die under Xu Jin's knife , This also made You Kong understand that the strength gap between himself and Xu Jin was bigger than he imagined.

Hearing You Hong's words, Xu Jin didn't speak again, suddenly the space around the two of them began to change, the ground under their feet seemed to be shrinking rapidly, and the princes and kings who were so far away that they couldn't see at all, at this time They appeared around Xu Jin and the two of them again.

With the appearance of a circle of golden divine light, Xu Jin felt that the independent small space around her melted like ice and snow. The figures of him and You Hong basically did not move much compared to before, while the two The damage caused by the battle disappeared without a trace along with the disappearance of the small space.

"As expected of the means of the gods!"

Sensing the disappearance of the small space, Xu Jin looked at the intact floor under her feet, feeling a little admiration for Shenghuang's methods in her heart.

He didn't know how strong Sheng Huang was, but the opponent's ability to control the space was completely beyond his reach.

After the small space disappeared, the slightly noisy voices of the surrounding princes and kings reached Xu Jin's ears.

Most of the lords of the vassal states are praising Xu Jin's strength, some of them are belittling the lord of the state of Qi, You Kong, and some people are disappointed with the confrontation between the two just now, because they are not at all. Didn't see what I wanted to see.

Fortunately, these noisy voices stopped abruptly when Sheng Huang, who was sitting at the top of the hall, spoke.

"Xu Jin, You Kong, the contest between you two is over, and now the outcome has been decided. Regarding this duel, You Kong, what do you have to say?"

Sheng Huang asked You Kong.

"The widow loses and has nothing to say!"

Hearing Shenghuang's question, You Kon bowed and answered, just as he said just now, he was convinced that he lost in this competition, although because the battle didn't last long, You Kon There are still a lot of means that have not been used, but Youkun knows that Xu Jin also did not use all his strength, so even if he uses all the means, the possibility of defeating Xu Jin is very small. Where the strength is, he really has to be convinced. .

Hearing what You Kong said, Sheng Huang nodded slightly, then raised his right hand, and a divine light shot out from his hand, landing on You Kong.

You Kon, who was shrouded by the divine light, had the wound cut out on the top of his head, and began to repair it quickly. Under the effect of the golden divine light, strands of blood-colored light from the knife quickly peeled off from You Kon's wound.

After more than ten breaths, the wound on the top of You Kong's head has almost healed, the ears have also recovered, and the breath of the whole body has stabilized.

"Thank you His Majesty Sheng Huang!"

You Hong, who had almost recovered from his injuries, immediately saluted Sheng Huang and thanked him.

"Well, since you have already decided the winner of the competition, then, according to what Gu said before, Qi Guo should give Xu Jin an explanation!"

Sheng Huang looked at You Kong who was done, and didn't pay much attention to his thanks, and directly talked about the things agreed before Bidou.

Hearing Sheng Huang's words, even though You Kong still felt a little unwilling, but at this time, he had nothing to say, so he lowered his head slightly and said.

"Since the widow has already lost, then I will follow His Majesty Sheng Huang's orders, and I would like to ask His Majesty Sheng to express, what kind of explanation should the widow give?"

Hearing You Hong's answer, Sheng Huang looked at Xu Jin and the rulers of those big vassal states, and then asked them.

"What kind of explanation do you think Qi State should give, Xu Jin, what do you want Qi State to explain to you?"

Hearing Sheng Huang's question, Xu Jin turned his eyes to the rulers of those big vassal states, wanting to see what they would say first, but after he looked at the lords of those big vassal states, he found that None of them had the intention to speak, but instead looked at him.

Seeing this, Xu Jin wanted to say what he needed, but after thinking about it, he swallowed what he was going to say, and said as before.

"Everything is up to His Majesty Sheng Huang!"

The matter of asking Qi Guo to give himself an explanation was first brought up by Dasheng. Although Xu Jin used a battle to implement this matter, what kind of explanation should Qi Guo give, or should he propose? Xu Jin couldn't grasp this speed for a while, so it all depends on Sheng Huang's wishes.

Seeing this situation, Emperor Sheng's gaze turned to the Lord of the Qi Kingdom, You Kong, and spoke after a moment of pondering.

"Qi State participated in the war between Chen State and Jing State, first became allies with Chen State, then betrayed Chen State, and together with Jing State destroyed the original ally Chen State, and occupied Chen State's land, this is an unjust act, especially Kong , I will order you Qi State to give up [-]% of the land occupied by Chen State, and use this as an explanation!"

"This, the widow obeys!"

Hearing Sheng Huang's words, You Kong couldn't help but feel a little pain in his heart even though he was prepared to bleed heavily, but he didn't bargain and agreed directly.

Seeing that You Hong had agreed, Sheng Huang turned his gaze back to Xu Jin, and then said to Xu Jin.

"Xu Jin, you now have some strength and foundation, but after all, you are still a little shallow, and you are not the original Chen royal family, so I will return [-]% of your original Chen country. I hope you will govern well and treat the original Chen country well." people."

"In addition, you won the first battle just now. According to what Gu said before, now you have got a chance to become the lord of the princes. Wait until your cultivation base breaks through the realm of Tianxian, or some of you and your descendants get blood inheritance , you can become the lord of the princes, and then you can come to Dasheng to receive the title!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty Shenghuang!"

When Xu Jin heard the words, she immediately bowed and replied with a salute, and at the same time showed some excitement appropriately.

After speaking to Xu Jin, Sheng Huang looked at the other princes and kings in the hall, and spoke to them.

"Gu just said beforehand that this kind of opportunity cannot be obtained by Xu Jin alone. If there are talents in your vassal states who are talented enough to become the lords of the vassal states, they can also strive for such an opportunity. Tell this matter to the sages among the princes!"

"Don't worry, His Majesty Sheng, after we go back, we will definitely inform the domestic practitioners of this matter, and we will definitely not let His Majesty Sheng's painstaking efforts go to waste!"

As soon as Shenghuang's words fell, someone immediately echoed them, and the first few people who spoke out were all in the vassal kingdom on the side of Dasheng when they stood in line.

As for the other princes and lords, no one objected at this time, and many people were even bowing their heads and thinking about how to gain some benefits through this matter.

When the hall became quiet again, Sheng Huang looked at the people in the hall, and then asked.

"The matter of the state of Qi has been settled, and everyone already knows about another important matter at the banquet of the princes. Now, if you have anything else that needs to be raised at the banquet of the princes, you might as well say it now!"

Hearing Sheng Huang's words, all the princes and kings present knew that this banquet of princes had come to an end.

Generally, at this time, when countries need Dasheng's help to solve some trivial matters, it often involves some small conflicts, the replacement of the position of the lord of the vassal state, or some troubles that suddenly occur in the country of the vassals and cannot be solved by themselves. There is no shortage of things.

However, all the lords of the vassals also know that this time the lords' banquet is different from the past, so after Sheng Huang finished speaking, there are not many trivial matters that need to be solved one by one, that is, the replacement of the positions of the two lords, and Some small conflicts between several princes.

After dealing with these matters, Sheng Huang looked at the princes and kings present, and then prepared to announce the end of the banquet of the princes.

"My lords, the matters that need to be resolved have almost been resolved. This banquet of the princes is almost over, and then...!"

Just when Sheng Huang was about to announce the end of the princes' banquet, a voice suddenly came to mind and interrupted Sheng Huang's words again.

"Your Majesty Shenghuang, I have one more thing to say!"

The one who spoke was still the lord of the princes who made the provocative words before, and the other party interrupted Sheng Huang's words again.

"speak!"

Looking at the lord of the princes who suddenly interrupted again, Sheng Huang faintly spat out a word.

"Reporting to His Majesty Shenghuang, before I came to Dasheng, I felt that my cultivation had reached the threshold of breakthrough, so I planned to retreat and break through my cultivation after going back this time. I am afraid that I will not be able to participate in it again in the next twenty or thirty years. The feudal lords have a banquet, please forgive me, His Majesty Shenghuang!"

The lord of the vassal state had a smile on his face at this time, and said to Sheng Huang in a calm tone, and just after he finished speaking, the burly lord of the big vassal state also spoke.

"Your Majesty Shenghuang, I have improved my cultivation these days, and I have almost reached the threshold of a breakthrough in my cultivation. In the next twenty or thirty years, I am afraid that I will not have time to attend the banquet of the princes. Please forgive me, Your Majesty Shenghuang!"

Immediately after the lord of the vassal state finished speaking, the lord of the great vassal state spoke again, and the content was basically the same.

"Your Majesty Sheng Huang, I am refining a treasure today, and I cannot be distracted for the next [-] or [-] years. I also have no time to attend the banquet of the princes. Please forgive me, Your Majesty Sheng Huang!"

"The widow also asks His Majesty Sheng Huang to forgive me. I have a supernatural power that is about to be achieved. Next, I am going to retreat and cultivate my supernatural power in one fell swoop. I have no time to be distracted by others!"

……

One after another, the rulers of the great vassal states stood up and said almost the same thing. They all said that they would not be able to attend the banquet of the vassals for the next [-] or [-] years.

After the lords of these big vassal states finished speaking, Sheng Huang couldn't see any joy or anger on his expression, he just spoke in a very flat tone.

"Gu knows, you will be very busy for the next [-] to [-] years, and you won't be able to spare time to attend the banquet of the princes. Of course, Gu can understand, then besides you, is there anyone else who will not be able to come in the next [-] to [-] years?" Those who participated in the feast of the princes, let's say it together!"

As soon as Sheng Huang finished his sentence, he saw the lords of the vassal states who had just lined up on the side of several big vassal states looked at each other, then stood up at the same time, saluted Sheng Huang and said in unison.

"I don't have time to attend the princes' banquet, please forgive me, His Majesty Sheng Huang!"

After these people finished speaking, the hall fell silent again. Most of the lords, including Xu Jin, did not expect that this time the banquet of the princes would be so twists and turns. Seeing that the banquet of the princes is about to end , such a scene will happen again, the lords of several big vassal states, and some of the lords of the vassal states who stand in line with them, have clearly stated that they will not come to the banquet of the princes, which is tantamount to showing that they have not obeyed Dasheng .

Under such circumstances, Sheng Huang logically couldn't bear it anymore, but Sheng Huang still didn't get angry, and just announced the end of the princes' banquet in a very flat tone.

"Okay, everyone knows. Apart from them, there should be no one to resign from the next princes' banquet. If so, this princes' banquet will be over. Come back early, everyone!"
