I have the best bloodline.

Any words, deeds or actions that are out of line may be stabbed by your subordinates.

One minister fell, and dozens of others in the same department were promoted.

Now that the commander of the Demon Suppressing Division is beside him, the Minister of War feels uneasy. Considering Xia Yu's promotion method and the donation system, it is impossible for anyone in the imperial court to have a clean fortune. In this way, it is equivalent to the Demon Suppression Division having always held everyone's thumb.

The donation system is completely a trap, a big pit that traps the ministers. Once the ministers go out of line or touch the bottom line, they can be directly eliminated. By the way, it can also demonstrate the responsibility and majesty of the Wusheng Emperor and eliminate harm for the people.

Sister Xi'er described Xia Yu as a court official, which was actually an extremely appropriate adjective. From top to bottom, the imperial court were all capable and capable villains.

However, they were all tied to the boat by Emperor Wusheng. Emperor Wusheng could deal with anyone at will, and there was no need to worry about things like public opinion.

With the word greed attached to it, I can kill whoever I want without worrying about killing the wrong good minister.

The Demon Suppressing Division killed all the ministers, which was a just act that was well-known and applauded by the people.

The power of the Xia Yu Dynasty corresponds to its obligations. If you don't have the ability, you should know how to retire, instead of forcing the Demon Suppressor to come forward and remove the last remaining dignity from you.

………………

"How is the investigation of the disappearance case going?"

After watching the Minister of War leave, Master Sumire looked at the commander of the Demon Suppression Division who was sitting in the office and asked about the disappearance case.

"The source has been found, but there are some things that still need to be judged by the Grand Master and His Majesty."

Aunt Chao Tianjian glanced at Su Yan, then took out the photo crystal and put it on the table and said:

"In the past half a month, a total of more than 1,600 people have disappeared in various parts of the Xia Yu Dynasty, and all the disappeared people are herb collectors in remote villages and mountains and forests. We followed the clues and traces on the scene to trace them."

Chao Qi was in remote villages and mountains, raising his voice slightly as if there was something in his words.

"After investigation by the spies, our Demon Suppressor recorded this scene." Chao Qi turned on the photo crystal to project a scene of a remote mountain village.

There is no light in the mountain village at night. They live a life of working at sunrise and resting at sunset. At this moment, the night sky over the mountain village in the picture gradually became weird. The night sky that was originally full of stars became pitch black. The mountain village gradually disappeared into the darkness, and a large amount of soil also completely disappeared.

A crack in space swallowed up the mountain village without leaving any trace.

This is the first picture, and the image crystal plays another picture again.

The scene is still deep in the mountains, and the spies of the Demon Suppression Division are following a group of people who went up the mountain to collect herbs.

But just as the image crystal was recording, the Demon Suppressor detective seemed to have encountered something. He paused and gradually began to float into the air. A liquid-like black mist emerged from behind the spy and spread all over his body, including his fingertips. Hidden in the darkness, finally, the spies of the Suppressing Demon Department let out a shrill scream.

The image crystal fell to the ground, and blood-red liquid spilled from high altitude onto the surface of the image crystal, covering the image with a layer of blood.

"Gudu."

Su Yan looked at the playing scene, swallowed secretly, and asked:

"Grandpa, these things should have nothing to do with me, right?"

The image recorded by the photo crystal was extremely strange, which reminded Su Yan of what Taishi Sumire said earlier that what happened later might have something to do with him.

Su Yan didn't think that the things on the picture had anything to do with him.

"Now when I'm on duty, call me Taishi." Taishi Jin looked at Su Yan to correct his title problem, and then said: "When I say it's related to you, I don't mean that you were involved in the disappearance case, but I think it's related to you. , depending on your luck, you may be involved."

"It's not that I'm going to use you to catch the mastermind behind the scenes, a little fox with no body, but I won't be able to catch a big fish."

Grand Master Jin looked at Chao Qi and said, "I can understand that what you are saying is that there is no black hand behind Xia Yu's disappearance, but it is caused by our Xia Yu's special earth connection?"

The space gap that swallowed up the mountain village did not appear to be an ability exerted by heavenly beings, nor did it express the natural characteristics of heavenly beings themselves.

Based on the location of the missing persons and the randomness of the gaps in the space, it does not seem like the Nightmare Town Sect or the Demonic Cultivators are capturing the blood stains of living beings. In this way, the Demon Town Division can only deduce a conclusion based on the existing information.

The only thing that more than 20 disappearance cases and more than a thousand people have in common is that their areas are not covered by Xia Yu's deep earth veins.

"Yes."

Chao Qi said calmly: "The final investigation and inference result is just as the Grand Master said. As for the underlying factors, we don't need to investigate. After that, it is beyond the scope of our Demon Suppression Department's functions."

"But here, I would like to add that the space gap can swallow living beings today, and the space gap may spit out some creatures that have never been seen before tomorrow."

Chapter 492 Yes, I am here, I am serious

"If you can swallow living things today, you may spit out some living things tomorrow."

The commander of the Demon Suppression Division, Chao Qi, narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he was warning something with intent.

As the head of the Xia Yu Dynasty, Chao Qi is in charge of the inspection function. She knows more intelligence and understanding of the internal secrets of the Xia Yu Dynasty than ordinary third-rank or kings with different surnames. Naturally, she can learn from the disappearance case and the recent developments in the world of cultivation. What happened, guess something.

Therefore, after reporting on his official duties, Chao Qi seriously warned Master Jin that earning money was certainly important to Xia Yu, but now, it was obvious that he needed to adjust his past strategies.

Of course, Chao Qi was just talking. She didn't need to worry about how Master Sumire dealt with it. Those words that were not under the jurisdiction of the Demon Suppression Division were already vaguely suspected of crossing the line.

"Um"

After Chao Qi finished speaking, he stood up from his seat and walked to Su Yan. He raised his arm, put it on Su Yan's head, touched it and said, "The big fox should still be preparing for the wedding banquet, right? Is there any How does the new house look like? Do you need anything to give?”

It was a custom in the Xia Yu Dynasty that when a new residence was settled, relatives and friends would bring gifts to the house. The closer the relationship was with relatives and friends, the gifts would naturally be more intimate or commonly used.

As a Taoist monk of Auntie Wangtianhou, when she comes to visit, she should give her something like furniture or a mattress cover, and then give her a large congratulatory gift.

A few sets of mattresses. You don’t have to think about it. I must have someone knitting it now. Carrying another set of mattresses will definitely be a hit. Therefore, Chao Qi asked Su Yan what style his new home was, and planned to have Feng make a set of Xia Yu's top-notch tea sets to send over.

She was really busy recently. There were missing persons cases in Xia Yu every day. All the recruits inside and outside the Demon Suppressing Division, including the training camp, were out investigating the case. She had no time to care about the situation of Mother Fox and Father Long's new residence.

"Well, I don't know for sure." Su Yan answered honestly, "It's completely uncertain what my mother's character will be like and what her new home will look like."

"That's right, the big fox likes to mess around. It doesn't matter whether it's right or not, as long as it's happy." Chao Qi smiled and shook his head and said, "In that case, I'm going back. Come to my aunt's house for dinner and tea when you have time!"

Mother Fox's temperament is not one that is determined and then acted upon, but rather one that is more whim and emotional. This can be seen from the fact that she picks up nets when she has nothing to do, and salvages magic cultivators in front of her home and trains them into servants.

It doesn't matter whether things are right or wrong, just be happy.

The new home may be styled in a southern-state mix, or it may eventually be built in a northern-state wilderness style.

………………

After watching Aunt Wangtianhou leave, Su Yan looked at Grand Master Jin who had been silent for a long time as if thinking about something, and said, "Grand Master, Wang Tianhou just now, what the commander of the Demon Suppression Division said is related to the soil?"

When he was working in the flower area, Su Yan once reported to Taishi Jin that he wanted to replace all sugar cane planting with sugar beets that would slightly absorb the soil's fertility.

Taishi Jin directly agreed at that time, and Su Yan also indirectly knew that there were no mountain gods in Xia Yu's land. Whether the land was fertile or not was not what the mountain gods said. Xia Yu's dynasty had the ability to control the fertility of the territory. Xia Yu's mountain gods In addition to their cultivation, they are also mascots.

Judging from the words of Aunt Wangtianhou, the cause of Xia Yu's missing persons case was the Xia Yu Dynasty's ability to regulate the fertility of its territory.

"It has nothing to do with the soil." Grand Master Jin looked sideways at Su Yan, chuckled and shook his head: "It has a lot to do with the method of Nightmare Town. So, I said it has a relationship with you at the beginning, don't you? Do you know that you have a physique that likes to provoke Nightmare Town? "

"Your Majesty, they were still reckless. Without any communication, they killed the two immortals in Tiandi Guixu who anchored the coordinates of the world of cultivation."

"Now the world of cultivation is returning, and the soil in our Xia Yu territory, because of His Majesty's layout, can be said to grow if you sow seeds."

Su Yan looked surprised when he heard this and said: "The Xia Yu Dynasty's national defense formation is a method of nightmare suppression? And because the world of cultivation is returning to the fairy world, there is some conflict between the two, causing a space rift?"

Wusheng Emperor, Tai Taoist, and Sun Golden Crow, because of some things, raided Tianzhigui Ruins and killed the immortals inside who had exhausted their immortal power and were on the verge of death.

The Dragon Kings of the Four Seas had already secretly attacked Di Zhigui Xu and killed the Immortal Li before this.

The Wusheng Emperor and the Dragon Kings had not communicated with each other. Neither side was aware of the other's actions. Each took the lead to kill the immortal for the sake of its own or the alliance's interests, fearing that other heavenly beings would secretly intercept them.

The anchor of Heaven and Earth's Return to Ruins has been removed, and the realm of cultivation fixed in the void gap will naturally be affected by the gravity of the fairy world and return to its original position. The original fairy world was split by the power of the Holy Spirits, supplemented by Heaven and Earth's Return to Ruins as an anchor. The divided regions will not be able to return.

"Yes."

Taishi Jin crossed his legs, picked up the tea cup on the table, took a sip of tea and said, "Xia Yu's earth veins were constructed by His Majesty's manual excavation and did not rely on the influence of the earth veins that had long been contaminated by Xiang Liu's poison."

"We may not feel it, but the world of cultivation is indeed moving extremely slowly, which has caused problems with our Xia Yu's artificial earth veins."

"With those huge spiritual powers, theoretically it is not too difficult to tear apart space."

When Xia Yu founded the country, Emperor Xia Yu and his tribe worked together with the Feng family to kill Xiang Liu, the overlord of the central state, and seized the territory of Hydra. However, when Xiang Liu died, he placed a vicious curse on the land. Contaminated the central state's ley lines with his own blood.

Plants will not be able to sprout, the land will be corrupted, and creatures will not be able to stand on the poisonous swamp.

The earth veins used by Xia Yu now were cut off after the land expanded to the limit after Wusheng Emperor succeeded him, and the originally dead land was resurrected by building earth veins.

Xia Yu's earth veins are now intact, but because the world of cultivation is moving and turning, allowing Xia Yu's earth veins to cover weak areas will leak out the power of the earth veins.

The earth veins are intact, and the Xia Yu Dynasty's national defense formation is also intact. The real problem is the slowly moving world of cultivation, because when it moves, it causes a shift in the direction and shocks the Xia Yu earth veins, resulting in weak coverage of the earth veins. The spiritual power was briefly leaked.

This is why, before the Demon Suppression Manager figured out the whole matter, the Xia Yu Dynasty's national defense formation and artificial earth lines did not issue any warning at all, and no one noticed the cause of the problems with the earth lines.

The formation and earth veins are intact, and the warning restrictions set inside will naturally not be triggered.

The leakage of spiritual power is like a release of pressure, because the realm of cultivation itself moves and turns, squeezing the earth veins. The artificial earth vein array self-checks its judgment on this, and counts these things as ordinary earthquakes. After the self-adjustment is completed, it does not send out any warn.

"Little Fox"

Grand Master Jin raised her head again and closed her eyes, lowered her thinking head again, and saw that Su Yan said: "Go to the Yunwu Tea House in front of the Imperial City to inform Zhenjun Zhihua and ask him to come to my place. I, you, There are three of them, and they may all need to go into the dark pit."

In the last sentence, Master Jin specifically pointed out that Su Yan would be back soon, so don't just run away.

Emperor Wusheng is currently not in the Xia Yu Dynasty, and he should be dissecting the true immortal with his fellow Taoists, extracting the essence, blood and spiritual tissue in his body for another flesh and blood experiment.

If you want to go to the control center of the artificial leyline, you need a divine key to open the door.

That is, the password of the nine-tailed fox celestial being can currently open the door, that is, the empress dowager in Su Yan's body.

Therefore, Grandmaster Sumire specially said that Su Yan would remember to come back later, and that the three of us would go to the warehouse inside the Demon Suppression Division.

"Uh, are you in such a hurry? Then..."

"The sound transmission jade is so reliable, do you think I want to train Zhou You and the others to run errands?" Grand Master Jin shook his head and said: "Whether it is spiritual consciousness or divine consciousness, there are hidden dangers of leaking secrets after leaving the body. There are some things Only face-to-face talks can eliminate the risk of leaks.”

"If you don't believe that you can get to the imperial city, you don't even need to go outside the imperial city gate. Just go outside the office door and shout into the courtyard: Paradise Immortal, there is a secret."

"Believe it or not, these peeping toms can fill my courtyard in three seconds."

Hearing this, Su Yan showed a subtle look on his face, and said with a strange look on his face: "I'm sorry. I didn't think well."

Su Yan rarely pries into other people's privacy. If he encounters something that he can ask directly, he will ask. If not, he will inquire on his own.

He has never done anything voyeuristic, nor has he done anything shady. The moral bottom line is very high in the world of cultivation. Naturally, he is also very accustomed to using sound transmission jade and sound transmission methods. Su Yan completely ignored some things related to Guys similar to Paradise.

They have absolutely no morals at all. They go around gossiping and snooping into the privacy of other monks, filtering out information that can be sold, and selling it on the intelligence market.

Artificial earth veins, Daohua Zhenjun, and the method of Nightmare Town are not matters that can be discussed openly. It is naturally impossible for Grand Master Sumire to come forward in person and send messages to them.

"Bliss Immortal?" Su Yan stood in front of the Grand Master's Mansion and murmured with a thoughtful look on his face.

"Huh? What's the matter?" Bliss Immortal's voice conveyed Su Yan's deepest feelings in the form of sound transmission:

"I was outside Xia Yu's city and saw two giant wild beasts going crazy. If you have something to say, just tell them. If it's not a serious matter, I'm too lazy to go there."

Su Yan: "."

You are really here!

I thought Taigong just said it casually.

"I'm sorry, senior. Just now, my aunt asked me what the renovation style of my new home was like. I didn't go home and I didn't know. For a moment, I thought of your supernatural power of knowing everything in the world, senior, and unintentionally recited my senior's name. "

"Your home? The one in Qingqiu Country has a mixed style. The one in Beihai has a very traditional style and is full of handicrafts." After listening to Su Yan's explanation, Paradise Fairy said with a proud look.

It turned out that Father Long and Mother Fox built two houses. Su Yan thanked Senior Blissian for informing them with a dark look on his face.

Chapter 493 The cause of the past, the effect of today

"Faced with the rolling black fog and the red moon hanging high in the sky, the Master of the Beast Control Sect tried his best to resist the invading enemy. Under the illumination of the blood-red light, even if there was a large formation blocking it The disciples also grew old and died one by one."

"In the end, the enemy hiding in the night struck out with a huge palm that covered the sky and the sun, directly driving the Sect Master's important beast-control gate and the formation into the ground."

When Su Yan came to Yunwu Tea House, he saw Daohua Zhenjun sitting on a square table on the central steps of the tea house. A cup of tea released a mist, creating a scene in the sky of the tea house where the Royal Beast Sect was wiped out.

Daohua Zhenjun held one in his hand and fiddled with it gently. The mist outlined the image as if it came alive:

"Seeing that the situation was over, and knowing that the enemy's hatred for the sect could not be eradicated, the master of the beast-controlling sect turned around, personally slaughtered the sect's senior officials, and hid the spiritual beasts he had bred, allowing them to carry the sect's orthodoxy and endless wealth. You are not allowed to come out of the white tower."

"The master of the Beast Control Sect wants to know what will happen next time."

Daohua Zhenjun held the folding fan, smiled and slapped it on the table, making a startling sound that dispersed the clouds in the air. He drank all the tea in the bowl in one gulp, stood up from his seat and walked to the door to look at Su Yan, who had been looking at him. .

"Master Su, are you here to listen to the story?" Daohua Zhenjun ignored the incoherent comments behind him and looked at Su Yan with a slightly teasing look.

"Why did you come here to tell the story?" Su Yan did not answer Zhenjun Daohua's question, but said with a strange look on his face: "It's not normal for a powerful person who has transcended the tribulation period to go to the market and start telling stories. ”

"What if?"

Daohua Zhenjun followed Su Yan out and said with a smile: "I have no family and no sect. My cultivation is stuck at the bottleneck and I can't make any progress. Naturally, I picked up my old hobbies to kill time."
