Bring some shock to the world of cultivating immortals

"I will also go to the capital when the Hundred Flowers Banquet is held."

At the city gate of Taiying, Zhu Qianyun stood on the wide road with a smile like a flower.

"I estimate that by then I will have to address you as the Sixth Grade Secretary General."

Zhou Li smiled, touched Zhu Qianyun's head, and said happily.

"Teasing me again!"

Zhu Qianyun gently patted Zhou Li's hand down, and then looked at Tang Wan aside, not hiding her reluctance at all. She walked up to Tang Wan, leaned down, and gently hugged the soft girl.

"Guan'er, be careful along the way."

Tang Wan, who had lost his spiritual power, was now no different from an ordinary person, except that he had a little more kung fu and the ability to use poison, which made Zhu Qianyun very worried. But she also knew that Longhu Mountain was the only way to restore Tang Wan to its original state. And with Taoist Zhuge and Zhou Li escorting him, Tang Wan will be safe...

?
Zhu Qianyun was a little worried. After all, Zhou Li was a very magical person. When danger strikes, he is definitely the most reassuring presence. But when the danger is lifted, he is the danger itself.

If there was a Taoist priest... he would probably be a little more restrained.

Zhuge Qing on the side also said goodbye to Cen Shu, although the two, a monster and a Taoist priest, seemed incompatible. But as one of the few normal people in this gang, Cen Shu had a lot of affection for Zhuge Qing, a normal-looking person.

At least she wouldn't be hanging upside down from the rafters in fancy clothes pretending to be a failed door.

Yun Baibai hugged Xu Xuan and looked at everyone with a smile. The pale white moiré dress looks particularly gentle on her, but the little red coat looks particularly festive. Xu Xuan couldn't stop yawning in her arms, his furry tail resting casually on Yun Baibai's shoulders.

After a while, Cen Shu also came to Yun Baibai. These two most normal people looked at each other speechlessly. After a long time, Cen Shu gently hugged Yun Baibai and said softly:
"Xiao Bai, there is a long road ahead, so be careful."

These days, Cen Shu and Yun Baibai spend the longest time together. In addition to the fact that both of them are normal people with similar brain circuits, Yun Baibai's clear and translucent heart is also a big reason. As a wife, Cen Shu likes a girl like Yun Baibai who is extremely talented and has a calm mind. She also likes Yun Baibai's kindness and gentleness very much.

In contrast, Yun Baibai also likes Cen Shu. Although sometimes Cen Shu has no sense of presence and is a bit awkward, Yun Baibai still likes to be around this ordinary but serious monster sister.

Liu Gong looked at Zhou Li. The two didn't say anything more. They just exchanged a tacit look and nodded, taking it as a farewell.

That deal will stay in their stomachs for the rest of their lives.

Now, the King of Han in the entire Thirteen Cities of the Northern Ring is not Zhu Gaoxu, but Liu Gong.

That's right, after a ridiculous and funny ceremony, Liu Gong became the acting King of Han, while Zhu Gaoxu retired and went to feed the fish in the Wei River leisurely.

In fact, this is not a transaction between Zhou Li and Liu Gong. His real transaction partner can only be one person.

Emperor.

In fact, the word "Zen" when spoken by the King of Han was like Zhou Li talking about the bottom line or Hou Jue talking about truth, which was completely nonsense.

Where the hell did you, a prince, get the right to the Zen position?

Therefore, the root of this farce is the emperor's tacit approval.

In fact, the emperor did not want the thirteen cities of the North Ring to be completely divided. There is a saying that although the King of Han has secretly done a lot of things over the years, he definitely did one thing well.

Manage thirteen cities.

City defense, border, commerce, farming... In recent years, under the governance of the Han Dynasty, compared with more than ten years ago, the Thirteen Cities in the North Ring have actually made staggering progress.

Of course, this is not an affirmation of King Han's ability. In fact, to a large extent, the King of Han was just like Li Kuan in that he ruled by doing nothing. But what was different about the King of Han was that he was very rich.

Really rich and willing to spend money.

With the presence of the King of Han, a prince who was willing to spend money, the Thirteenth City of Beihuan, which was originally so poor that it looked down at its crotch, has become rich many times in just a dozen years. And the most important thing is that the King of Han brought not only money, but also soldiers.

If you have soldiers, you have a strong fist. The former bandits and man-eating goblins have disappeared under the sweep of the Three Thousand Battalion. After these years of operation, the Thirteenth City in the North Ring is actually no longer the poor place it was before, but is now thriving.

The emperor was not stupid either. He knew that his younger brother was very capable despite having a slightly twisted brain circuit. Therefore, he did not want the King of Han to completely let go of the Thirteen Cities in the North Ring and replace them with a useless prince to bring the prosperous Thirteen Cities back to their original shape. Therefore, Zhou Li proposed a plan that had the best of both worlds.

Replace Liu Gong.

The King of Han is capable, and Liu Gong is even more capable. Let Liu Gong manage the thirteen cities in the North Ring, which is the most perfect solution under these conditions. On the one hand, Liu Gong is the father-in-law of the King of Han and Qianyun's grandfather. With such a relationship, he can temporarily replace Zhu Gaoxu, be the King of Han for a period of time, and stabilize the development of the thirteen cities in the North Ring. On the other hand, Liu Gong is the King of Han. In a sense, the thirteen cities in the North Ring are still under the control of the Han Palace.

Some people will say that he is not named Zhu, so how can an outsider be the prince? But the problem is, this is the factor that really made the emperor agree to this suggestion.

The emperor could remove Liu Gong at any time on the grounds that he was not named Zhu.

This is equivalent to the Han Palace handing over the foundation of its power to the emperor, but it still controls the thirteen cities of the Northern Ring, and the Northern Ring is still one of the foundations of the royal family. After Zhu Qianyun successfully operates the Demon Management Bureau, the emperor can naturally hand over the identity of King of Han to Zhu Qianyun, and at the same time completely erase Zhu Qianyun's identity as Jianwen's orphan.

This time, it changed from winner-take-all to a win-win situation.

No, actually...

It's a win-win-win.

Looking at the jade gourd bracelet with a warm luster on Tang Wan's wrist, Liu Gong had a look of surprise in his eyes.

The lack of spiritual veins in the thirteen cities of the North Ring can be solved, but if the price is to make Zhu Qianyun trapped in Taiying for the rest of his life and pay for the spiritual veins for the rest of his life, neither Zhou Li nor Tang Wan will agree.

Therefore, without Zhu Qianyun's knowledge, Zhou Li and the King of Han reached a deal.

Zhou Li talked a lot and also told the King of Han a cruel fact. He lost his capital and his escape route, but Zhu Qianyun had to pay the price. This is far more uncomfortable for the King of Han than killing him. Losing a successor, and the successor he worked hard to cultivate, is much more terrible than death.

After weighing the pros and cons, the King of Han chose to take out half of the jade seal he had hidden, which was the fragment of the jade seal obtained from the deal with Wala. After being combined with the fragments of the jade seal dug out by Tang Guan, that half of the jade seal has become a jade with endless spiritual energy.

For the emperor, the difference between a half piece of jade seal and a complete jade seal was so big that there was no need to take it out. Therefore, he agreed with the King of Han's suggestion to use the jade seal as a source of spiritual energy to nourish the thirteen cities in the North Ring, allowing Zhu Qianyun to escape the fate of being imprisoned for a lifetime. Of course, Zhou Li also reaped some benefits.

A benefit that is not considered a benefit.

The current jade gourd bracelet is a self-defense magic weapon with seven different spells. There are no more faeries and there are no more seven different faerie powers. The once infinite power has become an ordinary powerful force, the Everlasting Sea is just a relatively powerful water method, and the sky-skimming sense has become ordinary methods such as clairvoyance and wind ear. Next to the spiritual spring cast by the jade seal, seven seedlings of different colors but with unique and magical features slowly absorb the spiritual energy from the spiritual spring.

The power of the Seven Immortals Gourd ultimately lies in these seven jade gourd seeds. Zhou Li only gained the approval of the fairies and gained the ability to control their power. But the seeds are still seeds and cannot sprout out of thin air. They can only maintain their immortality under the protection of Qimei.

Therefore, Zhou Li finally chose to plant them next to the spiritual spring so that they could have their own lives. In this way, sooner or later, seven fairy-like girls will appear in this world and live in this world like normal people. The seventh sister, who had been sleeping all this time, was able to open her eyes and take a look at her sisters and the world she had protected.

The one who was most shocked by Zhou Li's decision was none other than Zhou Yi, the six sisters. As a girl who has always been by Zhou Li's side, Zhou Yi naturally knows that Zhou Li still has to face many things, and his future is still clouded. But he gave up the power of the fairy gourd and handed his destiny back to the Seventh Fairy himself.

In fact, even if Zhou Li had not made this decision, Zhou Yi and the others would still do their best to help him and this brother they recognized. But Zhou Li still made this decision lightly, without any firm eyes or passionate tone. Zhou Li just said to them "What you love is your life", planted the seeds, and said goodbye. Then he turned and left.

Liu Gong witnessed what Zhou Li did with his own eyes. He did not expect that Zhou Li would give up so easily when faced with a magic weapon with six kinds of immortality. And when the jade gourd bracelet turned from fairy spirit into a powerful magic weapon, Zhou Li handed it over to his friend with confidence and put it on Tang Wan's hand.

Is this really a young man...

Seeing Tang Wan being beaten up by Zhou Li for stealing a chicken wing, Liu Gong was in a daze for a moment.

"Okay, let's go."

Stepping onto the carriage of Prince Han's Mansion, Zhou Li waved to everyone, showing his white teeth and smiling brightly. Tang Wan on the side waved his hand numbly and continued to lie down.

Even if he loses his spiritual energy, he can still withstand beatings. This is the gold content of our wrestling-resistant king Tang Wan.

Yun Baibai, who was holding Xu Xuan at the side, also waved to everyone, while the Taoist priest was very simple, just nodded in greeting, smiled softly, and then turned around and stepped onto the carriage.

In this way, under the gaze of everyone, the carriage headed towards Beiliang under the rising sun.

"Aren't you going to send it off?"

On the top floor of the tallest building in the Han Palace, Zhu Gaoxu looked at the carriage disappearing into the horizon with an indifferent expression. The Princess of Han on the side tugged on King Han's sleeve and asked softly.

"No."

Zhu Gaoxu shook his head. Dressed in a long red satin coat, he lost his former vigor and was replaced by a rare gentleness. "A bunch of young people, why should I join in the fun?"

"You."

Sighing softly, Princess Han felt helpless and said in a funny tone: "Why are you still so awkward when you are not Prince Han anymore?"

"Am I awkward? Am I awkward?"

King Han was stunned and said anxiously: "It would be wrong for me to get involved with a bunch of juniors. What should I do if they are too cautious?"

"Will Zhou Li be reserved in front of you?"

"He's not even fucking shy in front of the bathroom."

The king of Han was angry.

"Well, I didn't even have time to thank him."

Princess Han sighed softly and said with a smile: "Look at how you look now, you look much better than when you were wearing the python robe before."

"The kindness of women."

The King of Han snorted coldly.

"Ok?"

"Ren is good, benevolence is good."

"This young man Zhou Li is really good."

Princess Han looked at King Han aside and said softly: "Husband, why don't you keep him in Taiying? He will definitely be a good official and can also contribute to us."

"This time, you are truly a woman."

The King of Han breathed a long sigh of relief. In his mind, the figure of the young man planting the seeds beside the spiritual spring appeared in his mind, and he had many thoughts in his mind.

"He is a dragon hiding in the abyss, not trapped in the abyss."

"Master Zhou."

The carriage was speeding on the road, and Zuo Qianhu's voice sounded from the cliffs on both sides. Zhou Li raised his head and saw Zuo Wuyong, standing on the cliff with his hands clasped in a bright red brocade.

“Have a good trip.”

Hou Jue and Guo Lingyun stood beside him, saluting Zhou Li from a distance. Su Dayi, who was wearing ordinary clothes, held Zuo Wuyou's arm and nodded to Zhou Li.

The willow branches beside the road are swaying in the wind, as if they are bidding farewell to friends, but also seem to be greeting someone. Zhou Li returned the greeting to the demons with a smile on his face.

The carriage creaked and creaked, and Tang Wan was lying dead. On the side, Zhuge Qing was sorting out the countless photo stones in the package. The things in the small world had long been emptied and were filled with her favorite episodes.

Yun Baibai and Xu Xuan whispered, and the pair of good roommates became a pair of good sisters. This time on the carriage, there was no solemnity as before the battle, and there were no preoccupied people under the sunset.

In the carriage, only Tang Wan was thinking about Zhou Li's remaining chicken wing, and Zhou Li was thinking about where to order French fries. Zhuge Qing, who was worried about which episode was his "favorite episode", said There are black and white sisters whispering, and two black horses who are leisurely.

The sound of horse hooves, conversation, stealing, rage, and the sound of Zhou Li's shit exploding in the photo stone, all intertwined together to form a calm and comfortable scene. Relaxation, indifference, and expectations for the future. The next journey has not yet begun. At the same time, there is...

“I haven’t gotten in the car yet!!!”

Xu Teda knelt down at the city gate in pain, and he roared unwillingly because he was forgotten. (End of chapter)
