Martial Arts: Immortality Begins from The Deer and the Cauldron

Chapter 302 The general trend of the world
  It has been a month since the Jing Nian Temple was destroyed.

Although it did cause an uproar at the time, it was soon overshadowed by several more significant events.

The Jukun Gang, the Haisha Gang, the Dongming Faction, and the Jianghuai Army announced the formation of the Destiny Alliance, with the mysterious King of Destiny as the leader. The forces were connected and occupied the entire middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River. They had tens of thousands of soldiers and a powerful momentum. vast.

Secondly, civil strife broke out in Wagangzhai, another major force in the south. The leader Zhai Rang was assassinated by Li Mi. However, his daughter Zhai Jiao and son-in-law Kou Zhong took up the banner and led a large number of Zhai together with the former defected military advisor Shen Luoyan. Let the old troops and the generals who were good friends with Shen Luoyan join forces to form the Young Marshal Army, and fight with the secret public camp of the second leader Li Mi, causing both sides to lose.

The Hou Tianming Alliance intervened and beat Li Mi's troops behind the scenes. Li Mi escaped with only a few of his confidants, and the world-famous Wagang Army was removed from the candidates for hegemony.

For a time, the world's political landscape became confusing again.

Li Yuan in Guanzhong, Dou Jiande in the north, Emperor Yang Guang in Luoyang, the Destiny Alliance across the Yangtze River, plus disruptors such as Lin Shihong, Xue Ju, Liu Wuzhou, etc., the world is really like a mess.

On the official road, a gorgeous carriage was moving rapidly from north to south.

The carriage was covered with thick black curtains, making it impossible to see what was going on inside.

In the carriage, Qin Ran happily picked up the chess pieces with his hands, put them on the chessboard calmly, and then said with a smile: "Wu'er, you lost again."

This weird elf little witch snorted angrily and said coquettishly: "It doesn't count this time, come again!"

It turned out that Qin Ran had taught Hanhan how to play modern chess in the past few days, and he played chess with her for fun during the trip.

Huanwan liked chess very much, but as a beginner, she was no match for Qin Ran. Every time, she was killed instantly and was defeated.

It's just that she doesn't want to admit defeat easily by nature. She has been fighting and losing, and she has made little progress. Just now, she was almost inextricably killed, but unfortunately she still missed a move in the end.

Kieran chuckled and said, "Doesn't it count this time? Didn't someone just say that he would definitely win this time, or else it would be like that?"

Huanwan's unrivaled beauty blushed, turned her head away, and said a little embarrassedly: "Are you embarrassed that a grown man is so fussy about you?"

But when she saw that the man was still looking at her with a smile and said nothing, she cursed a few times in her mind, and reluctantly raised her right foot and put it on the man's knee.

Huanwan never likes to wear shoes, and her white little feet are always exposed and wandering around, which is really tempting.

Qin Ran smiled and held up Huan Huan's jade feet, looked at the jade-like crystal white feet, and sighed: "There is no part of Huan'er's body that is not beautiful."

"Ahhh, what are you doing! What a pervert!"

Playing with the beautiful girl's feet while listening to the beautiful girl Huan Huan's petulant annoyance is simply the joy of life. Huanyu tried hard for a while, but couldn't escape from the clutches, so she turned her head and said in a pleading tone: "Senior sister, he is bullying Huner, please come and help him."

Sitting next to her was Shan Meixian. Hearing Huan Huan's plea for help, she couldn't help but smile. She covered her mouth and said with a chuckle: "He is a man and a distinguished one. How can I persuade him? Besides, I don't think Huan'er is the same." It’s so uncomfortable, hee hee.”

After a while of playing around, Qin Ran said seriously: "I want to gather the forces that represent the Demon Sect in the south, such as Lin Shihong, Xiao Xian, etc. Before the Li clan can wipe out the north, I must unify the south. There are two things I need to do now. One is to remove Sui Emperor Yang Guang, the nail hammered into the south, and the other is the Lingnan Song clan, both of which are hard bones."

Shan Meixian frowned and said: "Yang Guang can say that the Song clan is very powerful in Lingnan. It can be said that during the heyday of the Sui Dynasty, there was a tendency to separate the country. The Heavenly Sword Song Que is probably as great as Ning Daoqi, known as The best sword in the world, I am afraid that the attack will be better than that of Ning Daoqi. Even with our current strength, if we want to take down the Song clan, we will be severely damaged!"

Huanwen also interjected: "Even if the Li clan has the support of Buddhism, it will not be that easy to unify the north. The number of warlords in the north is no less powerful than that in the south!"

Qin Ran said solemnly: "But the latest news I got is that DTZ has actually formed an alliance with the Li clan! The two have joined forces to eliminate the warlord forces in the north and besiege Chang'an!"

Huanwan was suddenly startled, "How is this possible? How could the Li clan have an alliance with the Turks..."

"Nothing is impossible, we just need each other. I heard that there are many forces inside. In addition, the Song clan may not be our enemy." Qin Ran shook his head and said: "By the way, Wen'er, I will arrange for the Yin Queen How did you go about the two things you did?"

Huanwen counted her fingers and said: "The news of convening all the factions of the Demon Sect and holding a joint conference has been sent out. It is expected that the conference will not be held until one month at the earliest. In addition, Du Zhuan, whom you asked Master to find, has also been found. , now, he has been forcibly brought to Jiangdu by Master, and we will see him when we arrive."

Qin Ran nodded slightly, the magic sects in this world actually come from the various schools of thought during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.

The potential power and financial resources of the Demon Sect headed by the Yinkui Sect should not be underestimated. Rong Fengxiang, Shangguan Long, Yin Zuwen and others in the original work are all local snakes with outstanding financial resources. But the entire Demon Sect force gives people a feeling of being insidious and tolerant, not grand enough, and unable to stand on the stage.

That is also true. For hundreds of years, it has been fighting for the right to speak mainstream with the Buddhist-led Baidao, but it has always been at an absolute disadvantage. If it had established a serious Shanmen like Cihang Jingzhai, it might have been uprooted long ago.

Only by breaking it into pieces as it is now, hiding in the darkness, waiting for the opportunity to take advantage of the situation, and then lurking again when the situation is bad, can it continue for thousands of years under constant suppression.

Perhaps it is precisely because of such long-term oppression and persecution that the behavior of the people in the Demon Sect has long deviated from the spirit of freedom, indifference, and equality that originated from the various schools of thought when it was founded, and has become cruel, cold-blooded, and vicious, just like It is a group of weirdos who are running a cult. They even act in extreme ways for the sake of the so-called demons, which is displeasing to the world.

But the power of the Demon Sect should not be underestimated. Their tentacles are spread all over the country, even outside the Great Wall, in Turks and other places. If they can be gathered together, they will definitely be a powerful weapon!
  At sunset, the three of them finally arrived at their destination, the temporary palace of Sui Emperor Yang Guang, Jiangdu!

Following the marks left by the Yinkui sect, the three of them successfully reunited with Zhu Yuyan.

As soon as they met, Zhu Yuyan asked in a deep voice: "What is your next plan? What should you do next?"

"Quiet, please don't be impatient. Of course I have a plan!" Qin Ran chuckled.
