Chapter 561: Black Flame Legend
Longxiang Dynasty, Shuocheng military garrison.

"My lord, it's not good, something happened." The gray-robed old man walked into the study quickly, with a hasty look on his face.

The ghost-faced general standing outside saw it, and walked over in two steps, "Old Shi, why are you in such a panic, the lord is discussing the deployment of the next battle with the generals, if there is nothing serious, you can wait first."

Before Shi Lao could speak again, there was a faint voice from inside, "Come in."

The generals came out of the cabinet, nodded to the gray-robed old man, and quickly retreated.

Mr. Shi stepped in quickly, Xiling Moqian was wearing a white Confucian robe, and was standing by the bookshelf sorting out official documents, with an elegant demeanor, putting some military books into the bookshelf in an orderly manner, with a half-mask face showing no superfluous expressions.

Without turning his head back, he said slowly, "Hurry up, what's the matter?"

Mr. Shi hurried up and tried to calm down, but his voice was still unmistakably urgent, "My lord, I just received a report that the two ghosts were killed, and even the black bone general who went to help was gone, and the life and death of Mei Siniang is unknown." , I’m afraid it’s more ominous than good!”

As soon as the words came to his ears, Xiling Moqian's hand holding the book suddenly froze in the air!
He looked back slowly, with a pair of black and boundless eyes, staring at the old man without blinking, as if he doubted if he heard it wrong, suddenly he smiled softly, "It's my king's ear that's wrong, or your mouth. "

Shi Lao was so excited that he didn't dare to speak any more for a moment.

"What!" The ghost-faced general was astonished and stepped forward in disbelief, "Mr. Shi, is there a mistake in the news? Is it from our spies, or from the ghost clan? Could it be a misinformation?"

One miss was a mistake, two times, maybe Ling Xiyue and Bei Chenyan got lucky, but this is the third time, and the ghost clan will never take it lightly again, Ling Xiyue and Bei Chenyan actually returned survived!

There are no more than three things, and it is definitely not accidental.

Most importantly, the three generals of the ghost clan were killed!
That's the capable general of the ghost king, the top master who made the whole five continents fearful. How could he die like this? How did Ling Xiyue and Bei Chenyan do it?
Old Shi shook his head, "There will be nothing wrong."

"Then someone must be helping Ling Xiyue and Bei Chenyan behind their backs!" General Ghost Face still couldn't believe it, so he could only make this guess.

Shi Lao's gray eyebrows were twisted into a straight line, and he still shook his head, "No, the spies report back, the three generals fell into Ling Xiyue's trap."

"Damn it!" General Ghost Face slammed his fist on the table, full of annoyance.

Seeing the opportunity for revenge, he wasted again.

If this goes on, how long will he have to wait!
Xiling Moqian looked back, continued to insert the military book in his hand on the bookshelf, flicked the dust that did not exist on it, and chuckled secretly in a warm voice, "It's getting more and more interesting. This king really wants to know, three How did the king die?"

The gaze that turned towards Shi Lao became extremely sharp in an instant, and the temperature in the room dropped sharply.

Although Xiling Moqian still had a faint smile, the changes in the atmosphere around him could make people feel that he was really angry this time, General Ghost Face stepped back wisely, and did not dare to speak too much.

Elder Shi replied solemnly, "It seems... that he was killed by something."

"Did it explode?" Xiling Moqian narrowed his eyes, turned around, sat down behind the desk, and gave him a look to continue talking.

Shi Lao arched his waist, "My lord, do you still remember what decisive condition Ling Xiyue used last time to get all the princes of Beiyi to unanimously agree to belong to Tianlin and sign the tributary treaty with Beiyi Kingdom."

"You mean, Ling Xiyue promised to cut open the Tianmai of Yunchuan within half a year, divert a tributary of the Tianlinhui River into the Min River, irrigate the grassland, and divert water to the Beiyi King City." Xiling Moqian replied in a flat voice .

Of course Xiling Moqian knew about this matter, but he just didn't understand why Mr. Shi would bring it up suddenly, but then again, he thought Ling Xiyue was crazy at the time, such a natural moat, even with the power of the whole country, would take at least ten years effort.

How could it be done in just half a year?
He thought that he was doing whatever it takes to achieve his goal, but he didn't want Ling Xiyue to be worse than him, to speak so loudly, just to deceive Beiyi first, and he is still waiting for Beiyi and Tianlin to turn his face.

It's just that I have been worrying about the war recently and forgot about it.

So, half a year seems to have passed now, right?

"Back to the lord, do you know that the Tianmai of Yunchuan has been broken, and the water of the Weihe River has flowed into the Minhe River." Shi Lao shook his wide sleeves, his voice trembling, and said that even he himself was not very good. Believe it.

"What?" Xiling Mo Qian's eyes showed a rare look of surprise, and his gentle voice brought out some annoyance, "Why didn't there be any rumors before."

Shi Lao crossed his hands and arched, "My lord, this matter is absolutely true, and my subordinates have just received the news. Ling Xiyue works in secret, and all progress is unknown to the outside world. Even the courts of Beiyi and Tianlin seem to be indifferent If we don’t get news, let alone our people.”

In addition, Xiling Moqian had an accident in Yunshan, and all his subordinates were in chaos for a while, so they forgot about it.

Elder Shi continued, "Only when the gates are opened to release the water, will everyone know that Beiyi is a national celebration!"

"How is this possible." General Ghost Face couldn't help it, and interjected in astonishment, "Does Ling Xiyue have three heads and six arms, or some kind of living Buddha and immortal, who can move mountains and fill seas in half a year!"

Elder Shi said "Hey", "But the fact is so, we can't believe it."

"What do you say this has nothing to do with the killing of the Three Kings?" Moqian of Xiling quickly regained his composure, but his eyes turned cold.

Shi Lao arched his hands, his old face was serious, "Back to the lord, what I want to talk about is the thing that Ling Xiyue used to move mountains and smash rocks. It is said that Ling Xiyue has something in his hand that is extremely powerful, called, By the way, it seems to be called Black Fire... It explodes when it encounters fire. It originally came from a Jianghu organization called Shenji Pavilion. The three kings were killed by this kind of thing, but the specifics are what, and the subordinates can't tell , still under investigation."

"Black Fire..." Mo Qianyu's long fingers in Xiling touched the desk once, and tapped lightly.

General Ghost Face suddenly remembered, "Yes, I've heard of this thing too, but I thought it was just a rumor in the Jianghu. After all, there are nine out of ten rumors in the Jianghu. It has never been negotiated with the imperial court, and it has always existed in word of mouth, and it has not caused any big sensation, and it has not attracted too much attention from the imperial court."

"Now it seems that this thing really exists!" Shi Lao said in a more serious tone.
