231 Four dragons pulling the palace

The deadline was up, but Kong Tong didn’t do anything.

Clearly, the Yunxiao sect’s letter had shaken Kong Tong.

If Kong Tong was determined to get rid of the Lu and hai families, hai Sande and Li Yanling would definitely stand on the same side, not to mention Lu Qing. The Feiyun state had four counties. The Lu family occupied anling while the hai family occupied Donghai. The sect leader could only mobilize the forces of Zhongshan and Guangyang. Moreover, even in these two places, even within the sect itself, there were still many cultivators of the hai clan present. As for which side they would stand on in the end, it was still a question.

Once a civil war started, it would really be a civil war. If they were to fight, the entire Feiyun state would probably be destroyed unless Kong Tong could kill Lu hai and the other two in one battle, let alone the outcome of the battle.

It would take many years to rebuild and recover after the war.

In such a situation, he would definitely not be able to participate in the battle in the North barren forest.

Moreover, Kong Tong had another concern.

The human cultivators of the Feiyun state and the demonic beasts of the North barren forest had never been at peace. To humans, demonic beasts were a very good resource. To demonic beasts, human cultivators were also very delicious and nourishing food.

Once a civil war broke out in the Feiyun state and the state became weak, and the North barren forest was invaded by Jin, the demon beasts might run into the Feiyun state because they couldn’t survive in the North barren forest.

That would be a huge problem.

It wasn’t easy for Kong Tong to make a decisive decision on the matter of attacking the Lu and hai families, but this time, he was in a dilemma.

Perhaps hai Sande had taken advantage of his hesitation, so he did something special-he gave Kong Tong a way out so that he would not be put in a difficult position by his so-called ultimatum.

It was impossible to hand over the murderer. The Lu clan and the hai clan would never give away their own initial enlightenment cultivators.

However, it wasn’t impossible for him to apologize publicly, admit his mistake, and make some other substantial compensation.

The hai family stepped in and compensated the Fang family with a large amount of benefits.

No matter how much the Fang family hated him, they had no choice but to accept it. They had truly suffered heavy losses in this incident. When the clan was retaliated against, many of the clan’s cultivators were killed or injured. Among the middle and high level cultivators, only an old foundation building cultivator survived. The entire clan had already weakened to a certain extent. To the Fang family, this substantial compensation was a life-saving gesture.

Moreover, even if they wanted to take revenge, they didn’t have the strength to do so now.

Hence, they accepted the money.

As for the Wang clan and the Bai clan, under the instructions of the Lu clan, the Zhang clan also exempted the two clans from paying any compensation. After all, the situation in anling was different from the hai family and the Fang family. The hai family was taking the initiative to retaliate against them, while the Lu and Zhang families were just protecting their land. historical

there was also some extra compensation. Li Yanling had come forward and given Zhao qinian’s fellow disciples and disciples a lot of resources.

Zhao qinian’s surname was Zhao, but he was not a member of the Zhao family of peace. He had joined the sect as a wandering cultivator. After receiving the compensation, his fellow disciples and disciples did not dance as happily as before.

The entire situation had calmed down a little. As long as the sect leader’s branch stopped stirring up trouble, the matter would eventually pass.

Now, they would have to see what Kong Tong was up to.

Hai Sande had gone to find his senior brother, the head of the sect. This time, when he mentioned taking back the ultimatum, Kong Tong did not drive him out.

Although his words were still not very polite, it was at least an improvement.

In between their words, hai Sande also mentioned another matter.

“The Crown Prince of Great Yan, li Chengzong, will be here soon.”

“How did you know?”

“Senior brother, you should know that I trained in the South for a long time when I was young, and I’m considered familiar with Yunxiao sect’s perfected Wang Xi. He was now the crown prince’s Grand Guardian, assisting the Crown Prince. He told me about this when I was exchanging letters with him a few days ago.”

“Hmph, Junior Brother Ying hai really thinks of all kinds of things.”

Kong Tong was not stupid. He guessed that hai Sande had specially contacted li zongcheng and Wang Lian to use the names of the Great Yan Dynasty and Yunxiao sect to suppress him so that the sects could not easily start a civil war and had to focus on the battle in the North barren forest.

It could not be that the Feiyun state was still in a heated Civil War when the Crown Prince, his Grand protector, and the Yunxiao sect elder came to the Feiyun state, right?

That was outrageous.

However, he had actually wronged hai Sande a little in this matter.

It was true that he had a good relationship with Yunxiao sect’s golden core elder, Wang Jie, and he had indeed contacted him. However, his original intention was to exert some pressure on the sect from both the Yunxiao sect and the Imperial court through Wang Jie so that the sect would pay more attention to the War in the North barren forest and prevent Kong Tong from starting an internal war.

However, he didn’t expect that after sending the letter, Wang Bei would reply that he was currently with the Crown Prince, li Chengzong, coming from the Yan capital of Ji Province.

It was an unexpected surprise!

They must have come here for the North barren forest.

This pressure was much stronger than just the letters.

......

The word ‘let it go’ referred to the so-called ‘ultimatum’ that Kong Tong had previously issued.

The last moment had clearly passed, but there was no movement within the Xuanji sect. They had no intention of starting a war.

At this point, Lu Qing felt that things were already quite stable.

As expected, Kong Tong still didn’t dare to clean up the North barren forest’s internal affairs when the war was about to start.

And then, when the Crown Prince and Wang Bei arrived, there was no need to say anything more.

The Yunxiao sect sent a letter as the leader of the sect Alliance, and the Crown Prince came with a decree with the official seal of the Great Yan Dynasty. The Feiyun state began to prepare for the war.

As the higher-ups of the Qingfeng sect welcomed crown prince Li Chengzong and Grand Elder Wang Cong at the southern gate, Lu Qing’s consciousness form floated there and observed them.

What a Grand display.

In the distance, they seemed to see a Palace gradually emerging from the clouds.

The palace was about a hundred feet wide and black in color.

Great Yan valued water, and black was the most important.

The White and golden wall carvings and the upturned cornice all looked solemn and serious.

Each of the four black flood Dragons was controlled by a cultivator, and a long rope connected the flood Dragons to the palace.

...

“It’s the style of a flood Dragon pulling a Palace.” Lu Qing could not help but sigh in admiration.

These four flood Dragons seemed to be at least level three mid-grade, and the cultivators controlling them were also at the initial enlightenment stage.

It was said that the Prince of Great Yan was also a cultivator at the peak of initial enlightenment. He had water and metal double spiritual roots, but he had a water spirit body. His talent was even stronger than that of ordinary single spiritual roots.

The palace slowly stopped at the South Gate of the Qingfeng sect. The four flood Dragons spread out to the sides, revealing the main gate of the palace.

The main door was wide open, and a middle-aged cultivator with long black hair and a black beard stood on the steps of the palace entrance. He looked out from afar, and his voice reached everyone’s ears.”Fellow Daoists of the Qingfeng sect, please come and have an audience with the Crown Prince of Great Yan.”
