The Secret of the Goddess

Chapter 162: Traces of Barbarians

The next day at noon, in the room.

"Xue Yi, when is your birthday? I will prepare a gift for you then." Xiao Qingruo asked.

Xue Yi said helplessly: "I don't know either. I don't remember it."

"What about your previous life?" Xiao Qingruo asked again.

She was so happy yesterday. Although none of the things Xue Yi gave her were expensive, he spent a lot of time on it, from selecting ingredients to making clothes, cups, and kitchen utensils by himself. Everything was made by himself, which was sweet to the heart.

She also wanted to give back, and then she would give him a few gifts that were not inferior to his in return!

Xue Yi thought about it and replied: "In the new life, there is no need for the days of the previous life. Let's take the day we met as a commemoration."

"Well... that's fine, that's May 30th, about half a year away." Xiao Qingruo agreed.

Half a year, she can prepare for a long time, and then she will definitely give the dog a big surprise!

She has already thought about it, and she will also give gifts all day long, one after another!

In the dead of night, I will give myself to him!

The fifth level of the Emperor Body... It's just a lie!

In fact, after taking the Heavenly Emperor Body Tempering Pill, she no longer had any taboos. She was just afraid that he would not value her if she was too easily obtained by him.

Now that they understand each other's feelings, she feels that she is almost mature. Next May will be the first anniversary of their acquaintance, and she can enter a new stage with him.

Xue Yi doesn't know what she thinks, but he is also looking forward to what gift she will give at that time.

The two chatted, read books, and exchanged their insights on cultivation. Time passed quickly.

Day by day, the weather in November is getting colder and colder.

Shengwei Mansion began to get busy.

The eldest lady's coming of age ceremony is very important. At that time, all the sects and forces in the Divine Dynasty will send gifts and send representatives to congratulate.

At that time, hundreds of tables will be prepared for the banquet. If they are not prepared in advance, they will definitely be in a mess.

There is no need to do too much in Lanyuan, because no matter how much they celebrate, it is the mansion's business, and they will not go to the eldest lady's private residence to make a fuss.

The maids are still very idle. They serve the eldest lady and Xue Yi's meals every day, raise fish, sweep fallen leaves, and then go out to play.

Xue Yi is occasionally called by the meeting room to discuss things.

He is now the commander of the guards in terms of rank, and the confidant of the eldest lady in terms of position. He is also an important figure in the mansion.

There will be some envoys from all parties who need him to entertain next month, so the mansion also informed him in advance to avoid the embarrassment of mistaking people.

Mid-November.

Some unfamiliar faces began to appear on the streets of Lingzhou.

That day, Xue Yi had just finished practicing when he heard the maid come to report that the mansion master asked him to go over.

Xue Yi went straight to the meeting room. After entering the door, he found that the atmosphere was very solemn. Several elders and the head were there. It seemed that something big had happened.

"Mansion master, what instructions do you have for me to come here?" Xue Yi asked.

Xu Conglong asked him to sit down.

Then he said in a deep voice: "Some barbarians have appeared in the city recently."

"Barbarians? What are they doing here?" Xue Yi frowned.

The last time he dealt with the barbarians was a few months ago. He didn't expect that they would come again, and they came directly to Lingzhou.

He Haoshan said: "From what I have encountered, these barbarians are not weak. They are at least in the Cave Heaven Realm, and there are even immortal realms. I suspect that they learned about the eldest lady's coming-of-age ceremony from some channel and want to make trouble."

"If they are in the immortal realm, even if seven or eight come, they can't make a big wave. When the guests from all sides come, there will be at least thirty or fifty immortal realm masters, and there will be Dharma realm masters. There is no need to be afraid of them, right?" Xue Yi asked.

Xu Conglong sighed: "I am afraid that these people are just spies, and there are masters coming behind them. The barbarians... are still quite strong."

The Donghuang barbarians have been fighting against the Divine Dynasty for three thousand years. If they didn't have a foundation, they would have been destroyed long ago.

If they send out real masters, the situation is indeed not optimistic.

Xue Yi said: "The Lord of the Mansion means that the barbarians will worry that the eldest lady will grow up and threaten their safety, and want to eliminate the eldest lady?"

"Yes. Our Lingzhou is near the border. In the future, when Qingruo enters the Dharma phase, it will be a huge threat to the barbarians. In order to prevent it in advance, they are likely to attack at all costs. Moreover, at the coming-of-age ceremony, guests from all parties will visit, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will also come. Many masters and young talents are here. It can be said that important figures from all sides are gathered here. Once they succeed, the consequences will be disastrous." Xu Conglong's tone was low, and he was obviously worried that things would develop in a bad direction.

If the barbarian masters come out in full force, they will be bloodbathed in a moment with the power of Lingzhou alone.

The reason why they have not come to attack is that they are afraid of the backbone of the Divine Dynasty and are afraid of retaliation.

But this time, if Xiao Qingruo, the Crown Prince, Jiang Yunhuan and other Tianjiao teenagers are all here, they will also bring a group of masters in the realm of longevity and the realm of Dharma to congratulate them. The barbarians put all their efforts into destroying them in one fell swoop. Even if they will be retaliated by the core forces of the Divine Dynasty later, it is worth it for the barbarians.

"It is very troublesome to say so... How about asking other forces for some help?" Shi Long of the Law Enforcement Department frowned.

The strongest person in Shengwei Mansion is only the fourth level of the Dharma Realm, and there is only one person, who can't stop the top masters of the barbarians.

Even if the great elder comes back, it may not be enough.

Asking for help from the Shenwu Palace and the royal family is the best way.

Xu Conglong nodded and said, "I think so too. I plan to send someone to the Divine Capital immediately to report the situation to the royal family. I hope that a peak Dharma Realm expert or a saint will come to shock the barbarians."

"If a saint comes, we can rest assured." The fifth elder stroked his beard and smiled.

Shilong took the initiative to ask, "Master, I'll go. The servants are not strong enough, and it will take a long time to go back and forth. I'm relatively free recently, so I can take a trip."

"Well, you are indeed the most suitable. Go and come back quickly, and try to get the strongest person." Xu Conglong nodded.

"Okay!"

Shilong also got up and left immediately. Without even packing up, he left the Shengwei Palace and rushed to the west of Lingzhou, heading straight for the direction of the Divine Capital.

Xue Yi found that there was nothing for him to do, so he returned to Lanyuan and told Xiao Qingruo about this matter.

Xiao Qingruo was a little depressed when she heard this, and said, "I knew that day would not be peaceful. Alas, I hope not too many people will die."

No one has a good impression of the barbarians.

If there is a real conflict, even if there are saints in charge, there may be casualties.

After all... the barbarians may also send out saints!

Xue Yi said, "I will go around the city later. If I meet barbarians, I will kill some of them to minimize the trouble."

Xiao Qingruo shook her head, "No need. Since they dare to come, they are well prepared. Killing a few of them will not have any effect, but will put yourself in danger. If there is a Dharma Realm lurking in the city, I will not be able to save you in time."

Xue Yi thought about it and it made sense, so he gave up the idea and continued to stay in Lanyuan.

Unexpectedly, the news came from the mansion early the next morning.

The body of the stone dragon was found more than 30 miles outside Lingzhou City...
