Chapter 539 Profound Realm
The appearance of Pei You and Chang Wuzi completely disrupted Xifan's original plan.

Gongji and the border generals of Xibo had discussed that once the earthquake in Liangzhou was real, they could take the opportunity to send troops. However, now that the two of them were blocked in the territory of the Zhou Dynasty, if Xibo dared to act rashly, the two of them were afraid that they would be killed. They were brought first to offer sacrifices to the flag.

Gongji glanced at Pei You and the two men who were following closely beside them, feeling very sad in his heart.

Now that the pursuit has come to this point, it seems that Da Zhou has already taken precautions. I'm afraid it will be difficult for Xi Fan to do the same thing as before and kill two birds with one stone.He only hoped that Xiao Lingjiang could be successfully removed from the palace.

Pei You "invited" Gongji and his two men back and kept them under their noses, while Guo Xiaoxing immediately arranged his troops to prepare for a sneak attack by the Western Tibetans.

In Liangzhou City, soldiers and strong civilians who temporarily joined the team were patrolling and searching the ruins with their hounds.

Although Duan Xu and Guo Xiaoxing sent out evacuation news in time, the situation was urgent after all, and there was no guarantee that something would not go wrong in the rush, or that some people might not realize the seriousness of the matter and fail to avoid it in time.

There were countless losses in the city. Xiao Lingjiang and Duan Xu walked along the streets. The once bustling place had become a place of ruins, with broken bricks and tiles covering their feet.

Looking at the scenery in the city, the two of them felt pain in their eyes.

Although there were very few casualties in this earthquake, half of the city was destroyed and so many people were displaced. It would take a huge amount of money to rebuild.

The more Duan Xu thought about it, the more worried he became: "Princess, if you want to rebuild Liangzhou, the expenses..."

Xiao Lingjiang frowned, and then said: "Prince Duan doesn't have to worry about the expenses. Just report it to the court truthfully. After the earthquake, I immediately sent a message to Yingdu. I want to come to the court." Relief money and food will be allocated as soon as possible.”

"Just one thing..." Xiao Lingjiang's voice changed slightly and he looked straight at Duan Xu, "Relief money and food must be provided everywhere, every step of the way."

Since ancient times, food relief funds have always been the most likely to breed corrupt officials.

Liangzhou is located in a remote area. It is hard to say whether there will be those who are greedy for life after digging through the layers. When we get to the place, it is hard to say whether there will be random expenditures.

Wasn’t that exactly what happened during the drought and locust plague?

She said this, firstly, to warn Duan Xumo that he was being stupid, and secondly, to remind him to keep his account books in order to avoid problems that he would not be able to prove himself.

Duan Xu immediately understood, cupped his hands and said, "Don't worry, princess, I will definitely follow the princess's teachings."

Xiao Lingjiang nodded, looked around at the collapsed scene, and sighed: "I'm afraid it will take a long time for the imperial court's relief to arrive. How are Liangzhou's accounts? Is it possible to support it for a while?"

When Duan Xu heard this, his face was slightly bitter: "Liangzhou is not a wealthy place to begin with. There may not be much money and food available in the state... I'm afraid."

Xiao Lingjiang frowned: "No matter what, the most important thing is to ensure that the people have food, clothing and accommodation. You try your best to arrange it first, and I will think of other ideas..."

"Thank you princess." Duan Xu's eyes were moved and he thanked her repeatedly.

If Princess Yong'an had not discovered the abnormality in time, not only the buildings and buildings in Liangzhou City would have been damaged, but there would also have been countless casualties.

After all, when the earthquake occurs, it is the time when everyone is sleeping the deepest at dawn.If they hadn't evacuated in advance, I don't know how many people would have been buried in the house.

When the two of them were thinking about how to arrange relief work, they suddenly heard an exclamation from beside them: "There seems to be someone under the ruins!"

When the people around heard the words, they immediately gathered around. Sure enough, as they got closer, they heard an old voice coming from below: "Help...save my grandson...he is injured..."

Listening carefully, there was indeed the faint cry of a child.

"There are still children!"

"Quick! Start clearing things away!"

A group of people hurriedly moved things piled above and cleared the rubble.Unfortunately, manpower was limited, and the cries of the children below became weaker and weaker.

When Xiao Lingjiang saw this, he led He Zheng and others forward to help.

A man standing on a high place who was busy moving bricks and tiles accidentally slipped and was about to fall. Xiao Lingjiang immediately flew up and supported the man steadily.

"Thank you, princess." The man stood firm and looked back at her with a grateful smile.

Xiao Lingjiang couldn't help but frown, and when she was about to retract her hand and move away, the man suddenly grabbed her wrist with his backhand and made a slight stroke on her wrist.

She only felt a stinging pain for a moment, and then a white light flashed in front of her eyes, and her whole body was pulled into a completely unfamiliar space.

Within the space, the surroundings were blank and silent.

Xiao Lingjiang walked around for a few times and found that the empty space was about five feet square and was blocked by an invisible wall.

She drew her sword and chopped it off, then waved her hand and cast a few more talismans. There was no movement in the space, and it was as quiet as ever.

Xiao Lingjiang's eyes narrowed slightly, he was in the mysterious realm.

The five arts of Xuanmen are mountain, medicine, fortune, fortune telling, and divination, and there are countless types of branches under them.Xuanjing, on the other hand, belongs to a category of Qimen Dunjia, which is developed from the art of formation.

But unlike formations, Xuanjing generally does not affect the real world, but pays more attention to the cultivation of spiritual space.

All things have spirits. If condensed, some are as big as a grain of rice, some are as big as a fist, and some are as big as a bowl.Those who practice the Mysterious Realm are committed to expanding and controlling their spiritual space.

In the mysterious realm, the master of the mysterious realm is equivalent to a god. He can formulate the rules of the mysterious realm to change the direction or size of gravity and control the bodies of others.

Once others are pulled into the space, no matter how powerful they are, they can only be controlled by them.

This kind of ability is something that all mysteries want to possess.

It's just that this technique is extremely difficult to achieve. Countless profound practitioners have only expanded the space a few inches in their lifetime. It is impossible to accommodate oneself, let alone pull others into it.

Xiao Lingjiang herself has done some research on this method, but she has never devoted much effort to practice it. Therefore, even though her spiritual talent is extremely strong, she is only three feet square now.

It was the first time for Xiao Lingjiang to encounter such a big thing.

Her eyes darkened slightly. This person's talent in the Xuan Realm was indeed the best she had ever seen.

"Princess Yong'an Xiao Lingjiang..." A figure slowly appeared in the void, "I have admired your name for a long time."

This voice was not unfamiliar, it was the person Xiao Lingjiang had supported just now.

In the mysterious realm, the man took off his disguise and showed his original appearance.

I saw that he was wearing a black robe, with his silver hair tied at the ends with ribbons. There was obviously no wind in the mysterious realm, but the long sleeves of the robe and the silver hair tail moved naturally, and he wore a handsome and elegant look. The posture of ease.

Xiao Lingjiang narrowed her eyes, flew up suddenly, and stabbed him straight with her sword. At the same time, her left sleeve slightly raised, and several talismans flew out of her sleeve, attacking the man from different directions. .

The murderous intention was approaching, but the man's eyebrows did not move. With a flick of his wide sleeves, Xiao Lingjiang, who was holding the sword, hung in mid-air, unable to get any closer.Several menacing talismans were just hanging in the air so lightly.
