One person, one city, guarding the border for 30 years

Chapter 213
"... Li Xiuyuan, King of Dian, has repeatedly made extraordinary achievements, and bestowed a piece of ginseng fruit!"

Rewards continue.

Those who supported Li Zhuowan's ascension to the throne at the beginning were all rewarded.

Gao Wancheng, Zhao Wuji and others also received the fairy fruit from Li Zhuowan.

Those who received the rewards were naturally overjoyed, with smiles on their faces.

Especially for those generals, fairy fruit can not only make them younger, but also enhance their strength, and even strengthen their physical bodies.

The bonus to them is the greatest.

However, those who did not receive the reward were in a bad mood.

In addition to envy, more is lost.

They suddenly felt a little regretful, they had known this would happen, they would have supported Li Zhuowan's ascension to the throne without hesitation before.

But now, it's too late.

"The past is over. No matter who it is, as long as it contributes to Da Zhou in the future, it will still be rewarded like today."

Li Zhuowan stood up, faced the officials, and said: "So, don't envy others, as long as you work hard, you will get what you think of."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

The ministers are overjoyed.

Just have a chance!

In the future, we must be loyal to His Majesty and Da Zhou!
Many people have this idea in mind.

"Retreat!"

Li Zhuowan waved her sleeves, took a step ahead, and left the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

……

……

a few days later.

The Great Zhou Emperor Li Zhuowan abdicated and the new Emperor Wu Lingzhao ascended the throne.

The country name remains unchanged.

Such a big event went smoothly.

No one objected.

Up to the officials and down to the people, they all accepted this fact.

Kunning Palace.

Li Zhuowan and Wu Lingzhao sat facing each other.

"Mother, I'm leaving, you have to take care of yourself."

When parting is approaching, Li Zhuowan is quite reluctant.

"Wan'er, your marriage?"

Wu Lingzhao is most concerned about this issue now.

"Mother, I'm a cultivator now, so don't mention these worldly things to me."

Li Zhuowan smiled, "As long as I can be with him, that's fine, the rest is really not important to me."

"How about that?"

Wu Lingzhao said with some dissatisfaction: "Even if you are cultivating immortals, there are also immortal couples, right?"

"That's just a title."

Li Zhuowan didn't care, "Just leave it alone."

"You don't come to perfuse me."

Wu Lingzhao glared at his daughter, "I'm still waiting to hold my grandson."

"Mother!"

Li Zhuowan was a little ashamed and annoyed.

"I don't care, within five years, I have to hug my grandson."

Wu Lingzhao was very anxious for his daughter, "You have to hold on tight, don't let that Ah Li get ahead of you."

"Oh, I really can't help you."

Li Zhuowan was quite helpless.

"Silly girl, I'm doing it for your own good."

Wu Lingzhao persuaded: "Even if you are a god, you still have the seven emotions and six desires, and you have to experience those mortal things."

"Okay, okay, stop talking."

Li Zhuowan wanted to plug her ears, not wanting to hear these things anymore.

"Okay, think about it for yourself."

Wu Lingzhao stopped this topic when enough was enough.

"Then I'm leaving, and I'll see you again in a few months."

Li Zhuowan was afraid that Lu Qingfan would be anxiously waiting outside, so she didn't stay long.

"It won't take that long, will it?"

Wu Lingzhao suggested: "You can come once a month."

"decide as things go."

Li Zhuowan got up and walked out.

"I send you."

Wu Lingzhao was by Li Zhuowan's side, and the two walked out of Kunning Palace together.

Lu Qingfan was waiting outside the palace gate.

"Mother, I'm leaving."

Li Zhuowan walked up to Lu Qingfan, turned her head and bid farewell to Wu Lingzhao.

"Ah."

Wu Lingzhao nodded, looked at Lu Qingfan with a smile, and said, "Qingfan, I will leave Wan'er to you, you have to treat her well."

Unlike in the past, Wu Lingzhao deliberately changed the address for Lu Qingfan.

"it is good."

Lu Qingfan readily agreed.

"Let's go."

"Ah."

Li Zhuowan and Lu Qingfan moved together, their bodies soared into the air, and they passed through the clouds in an instant and disappeared.

Wu Lingzhao stared blankly at the direction where the two disappeared, with a smile in his eyes.

She thought to herself, this is the fairy couple, right?
There is no better pair than these two!

……

……

two months later.

Twelfth lunar month 23, Xiaonian.

Jinling City.

In the afternoon, Liu Xinran left the Wu Palace in a hurry.

She crossed several streets, came to a shop, and went in.

This is a grocery store that sells gadgets.

At this time, there were no customers in the store, and a few guys were sitting there bored, staring blankly.

The shopkeeper sits at the counter and dozes off.

Hearing someone coming in, the shopkeeper raised his head and saw Liu Xinran, his eyes lit up.

He didn't speak, but communicated with Liu Xinran with his eyes.

Liu Xinran understood, walked directly to the counter, passed by the shopkeeper, and entered the room inside.

In the room was a young man who was meditating cross-legged.

It was Sun Hengyuan.

Hearing the voice, he opened his eyes and saw Liu Xinran. Surprised and delighted, he quickly got up, pulled a chair, and said, "Sit down."

"Ah."

Liu Xinran was not polite. After sitting down, he calmed down a little and said, "I have obtained some new evidence. You can send someone to deliver it to His Majesty."

"it is good."

Sun Hengyuan was overjoyed, and stretched out his hand, "Take it out, I'll take a look first."

"Ah."

Liu Xinran nodded, took out a few pieces of paper, and handed them to Sun Hengyuan.

Sun Hengyuan only took a few glances before putting it away with an excited expression.

Finally got it!
With these evidences, the matter of King Wu's rebellion was confirmed.

As long as he handed over these evidences to Li Zhuowan, the task would be considered completed, and Li Zhuowan would naturally take care of the rest.

No matter how powerful King Wu is, it is useless, because Li Zhuowan's current strength has exceeded his imagination.

It's not something King Wu can fight against.

What's more, there is Lu Qingfan behind Li Zhuowan.

That was the source of Sun Hengyuan's confidence.

"Okay, you go back quickly, be careful, don't expose yourself."

Sun Hengyuan got up, looked at Liu Xinran and said, "After you go back, you don't have to do anything, just wait with peace of mind, these evidences are enough."

"it is good."

Liu Xinran also stood up, nodded and was about to go out.

At this time, footsteps suddenly sounded outside.

Someone walked into the store.

"Wait before leaving."

Sun Hengyuan stopped Liu Xinran.

In Wuzhou City, he had to be careful.

This is King Wu's territory, and King Wu's eyeliner is everywhere.

If he is not careful, all his previous efforts will be wasted, not to mention his life, and it will ruin His Majesty's important affairs.

"Ah."

Liu Xinran also knew that the matter was of great importance, so she sat down again and listened to the sounds outside.

She is only one step away from success, and she has to be more careful.

Sun Hengyuan was also like her, frowning, listening to the voices outside.

There were only footsteps outside, but no one spoke.

After a while, the man's voice sounded.

"Sir, you can't go in there."

"Ok?"

Sun Hengyuan's heart tightened, and he suddenly felt that something was wrong.

Could it be that the people of King Wu are outside?

Thinking of this possibility, he glanced at Liu Xinran.

Liu Xinran was also looking at him with questioning eyes.

How to do?
"fine."

Sun Hengyuan came to a table and moved the table away, revealing the same ground as the side.

They are all paved with stone slabs.

He squatted down and lifted a stone slab lightly, revealing a dark hole.

"This is the tunnel, from here you can go straight to the outside of the city, you go now."

Sun Hengyuan said: "Go to Xielong Pass, find Your Majesty and Mr. Lu, and tell them what you know."

"What about you?"

Liu Xinran was stunned for a moment and asked.

"As long as you're not here, I'm sure I'll be fine."

Sun Hengyuan said: "Even if I have something to do, I can find a chance to escape, so you can rest assured."

"it is good."

Liu Xinran no longer hesitated, and quickly jumped down from the hole.

Sun Hengyuan put down the stone slab, moved the table over again, and the whole room returned to its original state, with no signs of tampering visible.

He had just finished all this when he heard a cold voice outside, "Get out of the way!"

"Sir, what are you doing?"

The shopkeeper's voice came, "Shopping or looking for someone?"

"I'm looking for someone!"

That cold voice sounded again.

"Who?"

Sun Hengyuan opened the door and walked out, and saw a man standing in front of the counter, trying to get into bed.

He looked to be in his 30s, with a tall, slender figure and a stern face.

With a long sword behind his back, there was a chill on his body.

The shopkeeper stopped in front of him with an excited expression.

"Who are you looking for?"

Sun Hengyuan looked at the visitor with a serious expression on his face.

He couldn't see through this person's strength.

Could it be that this person is a ninth rank cultivation base?
A master under King Wu?
"Where's Liu Xinran?"

The man snorted coldly and said, "Let her come out to see me."

"What Liu Xinran?"

Sun Hengyuan was taken aback, thinking that this person was indeed King Wu's subordinate.

Liu Xinran still revealed her whereabouts.

But he can only pretend to be confused.

"Stop pretending to be confused!"

The man said, "Since she won't come out, I'll go find her myself."

As he spoke, he was about to take a step.

"Sir, don't go in."

The shopkeeper still stopped the man.

"Step aside."

The man reached out and grasped the hilt of the sword.

"Don't be impulsive, don't be impulsive."

Sun Hengyuan hurriedly stopped and said, "Shopkeeper Liu, get out of the way."

"Yes."

Only then did shopkeeper Liu move away, his back was covered in cold sweat.

It wasn't that he was scared, but that the strong aura on the man's body caused him pressure.

So strong!

The man entered the counter, passed by Sun Hengyuan, walked directly into the inner room without saying a word.

Shopkeeper Liu turned his head and looked at Sun Hengyuan.

"Go, let all the brothers go!"

Sun Hengyuan didn't make a sound, and said with his mouth: "Let them follow the plan! You go to Master Yu!"

"Yes!"

Shopkeeper Liu didn't make a sound, nodded, turned around and left.

After a while, he had already walked out of the store.

Several other guys followed behind him and went out together.

At this moment, only Sun Hengyuan and that person were left.

Sun Hengyuan turned and went into the inner room, only to see the man frowning and looking around.

"Sir, what are you going to do?"

Sun Hengyuan glared at the man with a slight anger on his face.

The man frowned, paced around the room, his eyes constantly searching.

"Where's Liu Xinran? Where did you hide her?"

"baffling!"

Sun Hengyuan turned cold, "I don't even know what you're talking about."

"Say it!"

The man turned to Sun Hengyuan, and asked coldly, "Believe it or not, I'll kill you right now?"

"kill me?"

Sun Hengyuan laughed back angrily, and said loudly: "Do you believe that I will report to the police right now?"

"court death!"

The man reached out and grasped the hilt of the sword.

"Killed!"

Sun Hengyuan turned around and ran, shouting loudly while running.

"Ok?"

The man froze for a moment, hesitating whether to chase him or not.

After thinking about it, he still gave up.

Right now, the main task is to find Liu Xinran.

However, it is also too strange.

Liu Xinran obviously entered this store, how could she disappear?
Where did it go?
Is there a secret passage in this room?

Thinking of this possibility, the man decided to calm down and search bit by bit.

He stopped, started from his feet, and slowly explored.

At this time, Sun Hengyuan came back again, and shouted at the man: "What's the matter with you? What are you doing in my shop with such a shameless face?"

"court death!"

The man snorted coldly and reached out to grab the hilt of his sword.

"Shh!"

The sword light suddenly lit up, and a beam of sword energy came straight to Sun Hengyuan.

Sun Hengyuan was well prepared and escaped easily.

"what?"

The man froze for a moment, looked at Sun Hengyuan carefully, suddenly his face changed, and he snorted coldly: "You really have a problem! I just didn't expect that you are still a master!"

"You're the one with the problem!"

Sun Hengyuan looked at the man coldly, and said, "I think your cultivation has not come easily, so I advise you not to wade into this muddy water."

"Ok?"

The man's expression changed, and he asked, "Who the hell are you?"

"I'm not afraid you know."

Sun Hengyuan revealed his identity, "To tell you the truth, I am the shadow guard by His Majesty's side. I came to Wuzhou this time to investigate the case by His Majesty's order."

"Your Majesty? Li Zhuowan?"

The man was startled.

"Of course!"

Sun Hengyuan nodded and said, "Not only His Majesty, but also Mr. Lu Qingfan Lu, he also knows about this."

"Lu Qingfan?"

The man's face changed drastically. He suddenly remembered the scene of being defeated by Lu Qingfan with a sword a few years ago, and his eyes darkened.

Over the years, every time he thought of that moment, he would feel humiliated.

So he practiced desperately, just to defeat that person one day!

However, as the story of that person kept reaching his ears.

He knew that he would never be able to do it again in this life.

It was because the gap between him and that person was getting bigger and bigger.

By now, he had completely given up.

He was none other than Wei Lingran.

Now he is still at the ninth-rank realm, but Lu Qingfan can cut through the gate of heaven with a single sword, and even the god of heaven with his sword.

The gap between them would make him despair when he thinks about it.

"Exactly!"

Sun Hengyuan sneered and said, "Don't tell me you want to fight against His Majesty? You even want to fight against Mr. Lu? I'm afraid you're getting impatient!"

"Why should I trust you?"

Wei Lingran glanced at Sun Hengyuan, "Who knows if you're lying to me?"

"look by youself."

Sun Hengyuan took out a token and threw it to Wei Lingran.

"Ok?"

Wei Lingran took the token and looked at it, and there was no doubt in his heart.

"Your name is Sun Hengyuan?"

"That's right!"

Sun Hengyuan said proudly: "Seven years ago, I was fortunate enough to receive Mr. Lu's guidance in Xielongguan, and I have today's cultivation base!"
