Chapter 543
Ever since he learned about the existence of the shrine in Linchuan, Xiao Lingjiang had fought against them countless times and captured many people from the shrine.However, only a handful of these people know the location of the shrine, and they have also been cursed by the Lord of the shrine, so the possibility of opening their mouths is slim.

This time, the reason why the White Tiger Palace was able to reveal something was, firstly, because Xiao Lingjiang cast a forbidden technique to pull his soul into his own mysterious realm, thus damaging his soul and will, and secondly, because of Changwu's The sub-means are very within human reach.

After hearing the location of the shrine, Xiao Lingjiang couldn't help but suddenly realized: "No wonder, the Great Zhou Dynasty searched all over but couldn't find the location of the shrine. It turns out...it's actually in Shazhou..."

More than ten years ago, Xibo took advantage of the Zhou Dynasty to rebel against the king and occupied the two states of Song and Sha. They have never returned them.

If the shrine's lair is in Shazhou, then everything makes sense.

Shazhou is located in the vast Gobi desert in the west of the Great Zhou Dynasty. It has a vast territory and sparsely populated areas. It is not easy for people to observe the shrine rooted here, not to mention that there are also Western Tibetan people protecting it.

"Shazhou..." Xiao Lingjiang's eyes darkened slightly, "Apei, it seems we have to stay in Liangzhou for a little longer..."

When Pei You heard this, he immediately understood: "Do you want to take the opportunity to deal with the palace?"

Xiao Lingjiang nodded: "Now Gongji and Tuochi are still in Liangzhou. If we want to deal with the palace at this time, Xibo will have some scruples and dare not act rashly. But if we get to Xibo, it will be the two of them. If we work together, our situation will not be good."

Pei You was naturally aware of the pros and cons. He pondered for a moment and said, "Indeed, if we want to completely solve the palace, now is the most suitable time. Leave this matter to me, and you can rest in peace and recover."

"There is a shadow of a secret guard beside me. My father specially trained him to protect me. If he pretends to be me and acts externally, I can secretly withdraw and go to Shazhou."

"No." Xiao Lingjiang shook his head slightly when he heard this, "I have to go there myself."

Seeing that Pei You seemed to be about to object, she explained: "I know that your swordsmanship is unparalleled, and there are few opponents on this path. But in the land of the palace, one cannot move alone with one sword."

"There are many methods in the field of mystical arts, and the people in the palace have no taboos in their actions. The evil forbidden arts and evil spirits are hard to guard against."

"What's more, the Lord of the Divine Palace, who has always only heard of him, is very likely to be here. Just by observing his subordinates' actions, you can tell that this person will definitely be difficult to deal with. If there is no mysterious scholar who is proficient in mystical arts, your trip will be difficult. I’m afraid it will be difficult.”

Pei You naturally knows this truth. Among the five arts of Xuanmen, although swordsmanship is said to be able to defeat all methods with one sword, it is not invincible after all.

Just like him and Ah Heng, his sword can break the power of her spell, and similarly, her Xuanmen methods can in turn restrict his sword intention.

If he encounters someone with a more advanced realm, his sword will naturally be weak.

However, even so, Ah Heng did not have to go there in person.

"If you are worried, you can send some Xuanmen people from the team to go with me." Pei You said.

Xiao Lingjiang smiled: "The people from Xuanmen really want to go with you and me, just to avoid disturbing the situation, so we can only do it with less but not more. Naturally, the methods of others are not low, but you should know that among so many people nowadays , apart from Master, I am the only person who has attainments in Xuan Shu..."

"Master has appeared at Gongji and Tuochi, and also fought against Tuocheng. If he disappears at this time, it will only arouse their suspicion. What's more, Tuocheng's attainments in magic are among the best in the world. First and foremost, he and Gongji need to keep an eye on them so as not to cause trouble again."

"As for me, I was injured before, but now I am using this as an excuse to avoid seeing people and secretly go to Shazhou with you in disguise."

It is reasonable for Princess Yongan to avoid the injury and recuperate.Even if Gongji insists on seeing her, Qiongzhi, who is good at disguise, is there, and his master is protecting her, he can't see anything strange. "I understand what you are saying, but..." Pei You frowned slightly, his eyes full of worry, "Your injuries have not healed..."

Xiao Lingjiang blinked at him and said, "That's why I said that our time in Liangzhou may have to be extended again..."

Although her master had devoted all her efforts to heal her injury, it was still a serious injury at the beginning, and even if she recovered quickly, it would still take some time.

Therefore, the envoys of the Great Zhou Dynasty discussed with Gongji to postpone the date of entering Tibet for more than a month.

In this case, we might as well postpone it for a while.

At dawn, Gongji, who was resting in his temporary residence, was hurriedly awakened by his attendant: "Prime Minister, something happened!"

Gongji impatiently put on his shirt, stood up, opened the door and asked, "Why are you so anxious?"

At the beginning, he followed Yongmu's words and chose Xiao Lingjiang to marry in Tibet, in order to use the power of the divine palace and the hand of the Emperor of Zhou to get rid of her, and also to eliminate a big worry for Xifan.

However, now the palace plan failed, the White Tiger Palace envoy was arrested, and Xiao Lingjiang, although injured, was still alive and well.

He originally thought that even if the former failed, it would be fine for them to do it themselves when they arrived in Xibo, as long as they were unaware of it.

Unexpectedly, the Emperor of Zhou Dynasty suddenly lingered on his sick bed. He Xiangshan once gained power and assisted the prince in governing. He even sent the prince of Zhenbei, Pei You, with a thousand elite troops to escort him.If they really take action, I'm afraid it will cause a big fuss, and the He family will definitely not let it go.

In addition, there is a great Zhou Xuanshi beside Xiao Lingjiang, who is not inferior to Master Shangtuozhi at all.It would undoubtedly be extremely difficult to avoid his eyes and take Xiao Lingjiang's life.

Gongji thought that what happened to him was like shooting himself in the foot. He wanted to use the opportunity to kill Xiao Lingjiang, but when he failed, he also attracted her trouble to Xibo.

Who knows what kind of changes she will cause after arriving in the royal court.By then the king will be furious, and his position as prime minister may be unstable.

Gongji was worried and couldn't fall asleep until late at night.

Now that someone was calling him at dawn, his mood was naturally not much better.

It was said that something had happened, but there was no worry on the face of the attendant. Instead, he said with a bit of joy: "Prime Minister, our people have just received news that Princess Xiao Lingjiang of Yong'an was stabbed last night. She was seriously injured and fell into a coma. "

"Being stabbed and injured?" Gongji couldn't help but frown, "This didn't happen a few days ago, what else is there to say?"

The attendant quickly shook his head and said: "It's not what the White Tiger Palace envoy did before. It was last night when an assassin secretly sneaked into Xiao Lingjiang's room and took the opportunity to assassinate her. She had been injured before and was being stabbed unprepared. It hit a vital point. I heard that I fainted on the spot.”

"What!" Gongji was surprised at first, and then happy.

So, someone else took the opportunity to assassinate Xiao Lingjiang?
