All sects work

Chapter 210 Phoenix Fire (1)

The guards came in hurriedly and said, "General, angels from the capital were found at the Liuyun City Post Station eighty miles away. There are ten of them, all of them are martial artists, and there may be a grandmaster among them."

It came too fast...

If a high-level martial artist or a grandmaster travels at full speed, eighty miles can be covered in just two hours, leaving no time for her to do anything else.

If she had not anticipated this day and sent all her guards out to investigate, she would have been trapped in the Pingzhou camp.

The Southwest Army had a commander-in-chief above and many generals below. She was only a temporary replacement, so there was nothing she couldn't bear to give up.

"Quietly call your brothers and meet at the three-way intersection outside the camp." Xiao Hongfan took out the token and handed it to him.

When he came, he was accompanied by several personal guards, and when he left, there was no one more, and fortunately, there was no one less.

Xiao Hongfan was the last one to arrive at the three-way intersection, but when he reined in his horse and looked around, there was no one there. The clear horse hoof prints on the ground were suddenly interrupted, as if the person had disappeared out of thin air.

"General Xiao." A familiar female voice came from behind.

Xiao Hongfan turned around suddenly, and saw Shi Xuanying sitting on a branch of a big tree at the foot of a distant mountain. She shook out a white banner in her hand, on which were written several powerful blood-red characters - Take in the Heartbroken General.

"..." Even though Xiao Hongfan knew this man's temper, his eyelids still twitched slightly.

She asked, "Will you leave?"

Xiao Hongfan did not answer but asked: "Where are they?"

Shi Xuanying's figure disappeared, and soon her personal guards and horses tied together were dragged out from the nearby woods.

She released the flying boat, threw the people on board, lowered the deck, and then turned around to invite: "General Xiao, please!"

Xiao Hongfan came down without saying a word and led the horse onto the boat.

She was so full of things on her mind and her emotions were in turmoil that she wasn't even surprised when the flying boat took off into the air.

Originally she should have had other choices, but ever since she had the predictive dream, it seemed that she could no longer go back to the old path... The leader of the Restoration Army was indeed popular, but he was killed on the eve of the attack on Qudu, which exposed a fatal weakness: he himself had poor martial arts skills and did not have a grandmaster to protect him.

As for other people, Xiao Hongfan didn't even think about them. In her dream, she did not choose the prince of Qu Kingdom, nor did she choose any other countries. There must be a reason for that.

The sons of Emperor Qu all have their own shortcomings. The crown prince is indecisive, while the second prince is decisive. However, he is too much like Emperor Qu, warlike and suspicious. The State of Qu is about to be dragged down by Emperor Qu. If there is another Emperor Qu, what hope will the people of the world have? !

It’s better not to mention the remaining princes.

If we talk about being indecisive and easily influenced, the emperor of the Great Chen Kingdom was the best among them. Even Prince Qu had to give in to him. However, he had a very good mentality, was in good health, and was extremely long-lived, living to the age of ninety-nine.

As for the State of Xu, the people of Xu seemed to be born scheming, so they were able to seize the weaknesses of the State of Qu and destroy its foundation layer by layer. However, this also led to internal intrigue. The Emperor of Xu had his head full of imperial schemes, and his subordinates all had their own thoughts. If one did not have eight hundred tricks up their sleeves, nothing could be accomplished in the State of Xu.

If it weren't for Shi Xuanying, Xiao Hongfan might still have chosen the Restoration Army, because the weakness of the leader of the Restoration Army was not in himself.

However, Shi Xuanying clearly met Xiao Hongfan's expectations of being the "Lord of the World" in every way. Although she had joined him like this, she felt very aggrieved in her heart.

Shi Xuanying saw her pursing her lips and staring at the floating clouds around her for a long time without saying a word, so she asked, "General Xiao, are you reluctant to leave Qu State?"

"Not really." Xiao Hongfan looked at her, "I feel like a sheep being driven into a pen by a sheepdog." Shi Xuanying patted her shoulder and comforted her from the bottom of her heart, "Fate is just like this, you should think positively."

Xiao Hongfan endured it again and again, but he couldn't help but say: "Weren't all these steps planned by you?"

"The sheepdog you are talking about, is it me?" Shi Xuanying was surprised, and then she accused him, "Tell me honestly, is there anything wrong with what I did?"

"Not really." It was precisely because there was nothing that he felt so frustrated that he couldn't vent.

"Since the predetermined fate is destined to end tragically, why can't it become better in my hands?" Shi Xuanying turned over and jumped onto the railing, sat on it, turned around and patted the person next to her, "Do you dare to sit on it?"

"Why not!" Xiao Hongfan jumped onto the railing nimbly.

The flying boat was above the clouds, and by occasionally lowering its head, one could see the mountains below through the thin clouds.

The protective shield was suddenly removed and Xiao Hongfan was almost pushed down. She felt the cold wind like a knife cutting through her skin, and the veins on her hands that were holding the railing were bulging.

Shi Xuanying crossed her legs, looking relaxed: "General Xiao, look at the mountains and rivers below your feet. They will all be where your cavalry will go. The red blood will burn like the fire of a phoenix, and the most gorgeous flowers will bloom on the ashes!"

Xiao Hongfan turned his head to avoid the strong wind blowing in his face, and said through gritted teeth: "That's a good point, but I still think you are taking this opportunity to retaliate against me for what I just said about 'shepherd dog'."

Shi Xuanying laughed and said, "How is that possible? Don't you feel your blood boiling when you hear that? I'm just afraid that you're too passionate!"

There was a little thought of revenge, but it was mainly to save spiritual energy. In this last age, there were no enemies above the clouds. It was a luxury to waste spiritual energy to build a protective shield just to resist the wind and cold. This little bit of cold could be endured by gritting one's teeth. After all, the conditions were difficult now.

Xiao Hongfan had a higher level of cultivation, so he felt fine after adapting himself. However, the guards in the cabin were huddled together like quails attacked by a snowstorm in autumn.

After finally reaching Xin County, as soon as they landed, they staggered to find the toilet without even having time to say hello to General Shao.

When General Shao saw Xiao Hongfan, who had a purple face and a dark complexion, he didn't bother to ask anything else and pointed at the frost on her eyebrows: "What's wrong with you?"

Xiao Hongfan sneezed several times: "It's okay, I just felt the cold wind for a while."

Where did the cold wind come from? General Shao wondered.

Shao Jin asked: "Did Emperor Qu attack you?"

"This isn't an obvious thing." Shi Xuanying said, "You guys chat first, and arrange for General Xiao to stay. I have to go back to Linxi County and Tao County to take a look."

"Wait!" Xiao Hongfan spoke quickly, but he still couldn't run as fast as her.

But this time the voice came faintly from a distance: "We can talk about it tomorrow if you have anything to say."

Shi Xuanying originally thought that this was the first time that Yan Cui took over these tedious government affairs, and wondered if he would be lazy like Bai Xuexing. Unexpectedly, he gave her a surprise.

When Yan was working, he didn't need to eat or sleep. The people under him were divided into several shifts to take turns on the job, and the yamen operated twelve hours a day.

"Sect Master!" Dongfang Zhentian was chewing a spiritual fruit while instructing the practitioners of the Mystic Arts to practice. When he saw Master Xuanying swallow the fruit in two or three bites, he rushed over to hug her, and said with tears in his eyes, "Why did you get fat so late?!"

At least half of Dongfang Zhentian's wisdom was used to tease others. He had never been so bullied. Shi Xuanying asked in surprise, "Oh, is there anyone who can bully you?"

"The Great Elder is too scary." Jiang Chuixing had two dark circles under his eyes. "Uncle Master, the work in these two counties is not enough for him to do. When will you start your own empire?"
