Chapter 312.
It was a pure white space.
Within the space, however, it was not a void, but a white flower garden, as if it was a continuous mountain range, constantly spreading, starting from Zhou An’s feet, and extending all the way into the distance.
A small white flower, swaying continuously with the breeze, as if a hand with peace, swaying gently.
And the vapid, sometimes twisting, sometimes changing shadow, as if the gardener of this sea of white flowers, was bending his head down, watching the flowers.
When Zhou An’s line of sight turned around, at this moment, this shadowy figure gradually turned around, and reached out to pick a flower, handing it to Zhou An’s eyes.
There was originally a distance between him and Zhou An, but when the flower was handed over, in just the blink of an eye, he had already arrived in front of Zhou An.
Zhou An somehow didn’t feel shocked at all by what was clearly such a bizarre and outrageous scenario, instead, he felt that this place was supposed to be like this.
He lowered his head and looked towards this small white flower, his eyes widening slightly.
At the center of the small white flower, at this very moment, the shrunken version of the Verticality Leader was quietly lying flat inside.
The Verticality Leader’s face was calm and ripple-free, as if he was asleep.
“For me?”
Zhou An subconsciously asked, “What happened to him?”
The silhouette shook for a while, then in front of Zhou An, it gradually changed, changing into a pure white color.
Zhou An found that this pure white form, gradually evolved, and eventually became the same as him.
However, the eyes …… were somewhat naive, as if it was a freshly born baby.
Zhou An was about to open his mouth to speak, when he saw the pure white silhouette striking out and snatching the flower from his hand.
Immediately after, the pure white silhouette continuously kneaded and kneaded the flower in front of him, into bits and pieces.
The shrunken version of the Vertical Leader also became fragmented as the pure white silhouette moved.
Zhou An froze, as if he subconsciously, heard the Verticality Leader’s miserable screams.
And after doing so, the pure white figure spoke for the first time.
The voice was so soft that it was indistinguishable from its gender, and when it appeared, the entire sea of pure white flowers trembled slightly.
“Pollution is like a river, those who flow against the current ……”
When these words exited, Zhou An was just about to look up when he suddenly realized that something was wrong.
Around him, the pure white sea of flowers was shattering, and everything was becoming void.
Zhou An realized that he was returning to the Guile Gathering, back to the outside world.
All of this, as if irreversible time, could not be stopped in the slightest.
Before Zhou An could say a single word, he had already left from this sea of pure white flowers and returned to the Guile Assembly.
At this moment, in the Guile Gathering, Eunuch Wei and the Guile Gathering were looking at the scene in front of them, and both of them, coincidentally, were feeling very stunned.
At that time, when Zhou An went in, he was tackled by the Vertical Leader, and all around the Vertical Leader, the barrier that was like an eggshell had appeared, and they couldn’t see clearly, what exactly was happening inside, and under the frantic attack, it still didn’t have the slightest effect.
However, after only a few breaths of time, this eggshell-like barrier unexpectedly broke apart in front of their eyes, with cracks visible to the naked eye appearing one after another.
When the cracks surfaced, a piece of debris, as if it was raining, fell to the ground and kept bouncing up.
Black Jade sat on her knees, her face filled with disorientation, and the bizarre aura on her body, grew more and more exuberant, as if she was a witch from the abyss.
Her expression was very depressed, as if she had lost the most precious thing in her life.
And the moment this eggshell-like barrier shattered, Black Jade raised her head violently and looked ahead.
Those eyes that were lost in thought took on a divine glow.
The bizarre aura was also gradually weakening.
At the place where the eggshell shattered, Zhou An was standing at the same spot, looking back with a face full of gravity.
Zhou An had returned, he had returned from that pure white sea of flowers, and it felt as if only an instant of time had passed.
And in front of him, the figure of the Vertical Leader no longer appeared, as if the Vertical Leader had never appeared.
But Zhou An knew that the Vertical Leader should have already disappeared completely with that pure white flower being rubbed to pieces.
He now had a million emotions in his mind, constantly mixing.
He thought about the pure white flower and the pure white figure in the pure white flower.
Zhou An felt that everything was filled with an enigmatic situation.
“All of this is definitely related to my golden finger.”
Zhou An thought to himself, “Pollution into a river, the one who flows against the current, what does that mean?”
These were the only words he heard, and they were also the words that came out of that pure white person in the sea of pure white flowers.
He didn’t even have time to ask before he had returned to the streets of this weird assembly.
Zhou An frowned, still thinking carefully.
Just at this time, a gust of wind blew by, and Black Jade’s figure, swept in front of his eyes, jumped into his arms, and hugged him tightly.
Zhou An was able to feel that Black Jade’s body at this moment, trembling slightly, as if she was scared and particularly helpless.
Zhou An reached out his hand and gently patted Black Jade’s waist and back, and said with a smile, “Don’t worry, I’m very hard to kill, so many people want to kill me but can’t.”
He certainly understood Black Jade’s mood.
The two of them, from knowing each other to the point they were at now, had long since treated each other as if they were family members.
It would be a lie to say that there were no feelings.
If one day, Black Jade suffered the same situation, Zhou An would only be even more insane than Black Jade, and he would slaughter everything that made Black Jade hurt.
After receiving Zhou An’s comfort, Black Jade’s situation improved slightly.
She let go of her hand, lowered her head, and softly said four words, “Don’t leave.”
Zhou An smiled, stroked Black Jade’s head, and said, “Never leave in this life.”
Only then did Black Jade’s eyes rejuvenate, softly hmming and pulling Zhou An’s hand.
At this time, Eunuch Wei and the Guile Rally joined hands.
Zhou An was able to feel that the bizarre aura of the Gui Gathering at this moment was gradually becoming stronger.
This represented that the statute of limitations of that inner elixir was gradually fading.
Without the slightest hesitation, he picked up the inner elixir left on the ground and raised his hand to throw out another inner elixir.
The inner elixir was received by the Guile Gathering, and as he watched the inner elixir disappear, the Guile Gathering regained consciousness.
Only then did Zhou An let out a sigh of relief.
It was good that this thing, the inner elixir, he was now not short of it for a short period of time, so there was nothing to lose by casually giving one or two of them.
“What exactly did you encounter?”
After the Guile Rally had regained a portion of its human aura, it opened its mouth and asked, “To be able to survive in such a situation is simply unimaginable.”
That Vertical Leader, although he hadn’t taken the final step, was a stone’s throw away from that final step.
In this situation, the Guile Rally and Eunuch Wei teaming up would only be able to fight a draw at best, and would likely even be at a disadvantage.
And the fact that Zhou An was able to survive this kind of scenario really made the Guile Assembly somewhat surprised, surprised and curious at the same time.
Even an existence like them felt curious, the Dao here, of course, was very deep.
Zhou An shook his head and said, “Auntie, everyone has secrets.”
The Guile Gathering sniffed and said indifferently, “I’ll just ask casually, it’s fine if you don’t tell me this secret.”
Eunuch Wei stood by the side, but his gaze stayed on Gui Rally, “We really didn’t expect that the protector of the Dao who has been hiding behind Zhou An is actually you.”
To say that the one who understood Zhou An the most was none other than Eunuch Wei.
Zhou An had encountered quite a few life and death crises a long time ago, even when he was two realms higher than him, but in the end, he was able to turn the danger into a success.
Eunuch Wei knew in his heart that beside Zhou An, there was definitely an expert, but he just didn’t bring it up.
After all, Zhou An also had his own secrets.
Now after seeing the Guile Rally, Eunuch Wei felt that all three of his views were going to be shocked.
To be able to make Guile awake, the importance here, that was too great.
Guile would faintly sweep a glance at Eunuch Wei, “Back then, that slap, I still remember it even now.”
At first, at the moment of the birthday of Emperor Xingwu of the Great Chu Kingdom, the Guile Rally, who had lost his consciousness, used to look for along the crack, and as a result, he was forced back by Eunuch Wei’s palm, so the Guile Rally at this moment, for that palm at the beginning, still remembered it vividly.
“That was just for Zhou An.”
Eunuch Wei waved his hand, “If I had known it was like this, we wouldn’t have struck so hard at that time.”
Truly, at that time, Eunuch Wei was indeed furious.
This is the person I sheltered, you even dared to come over from thousands of miles to hunt down and kill, then you have to leave something behind, so the strike was indeed very heavy.
After saying this, Eunuch Wei didn’t want to say more and turned to look at Zhou An.
“It’s almost time, it’s time to go out, nowadays, there’s only Emperor Feng Teng of the Great Qi Kingdom and his group of men left, he should have noticed something, but it’s too late, the Barbarian Kingdom’s side won’t be able to rush over.”
This trip of theirs, the most important thing was to eliminate these three heads of the Jianghu Demons in one fell swoop, and with this one completely over, then the next step would be to take care of Emperor Feng Teng and his minions who were at the Peak Ascension Realm.
Zhou An fell into deep thought and suddenly asked, “What about Elder Yue Ming?”
The Great Qi Kingdom had a total of five Peak Ascension Realm experts other than Emperor Feng Teng, and the world’s number one formation master, Yue Ming, was also among them.
It was even Emperor Feng Teng’s sister.
If they were to settle Emperor Feng Teng, they would inevitably not be able to get around this ending.
And with that feud between Yue Ming and Eunuch Wei, Zhou An knew that there was a great deal of conflict.
Who knew that after these words were said, Eunuch Wei shook his head.
“No need to care, she won’t make a move.”
Zhou An was slightly puzzled, although the time was more urgent now, it did not prevent him from gossiping a bit.
Eunuch Wei tucked his hands back into his sleeves and said with a smile, “In the beginning, between the two people, Yue Ming and his brother, there was a life and death enmity, and up until now, it still hasn’t been broken.”
“At that time, Emperor Feng Teng was still the Crown Prince, but he couldn’t wait any longer, so he found an opportunity to kill his father with his own hands, and in front of Yue Ming.”
“After never, there wasn’t the slightest contact between Yue Ming and Emperor Feng Teng.”
“If it wasn’t for the fact that after killing Emperor Feng Teng, the Great Qi Kingdom would most likely fall into some chaos, I’m afraid that Yue Ming would have looked for an opportunity to strike.”
“And unlike us, even if we kill Emperor Feng Teng, we will accept this mess as soon as possible to minimize the chaos.”
“Yue Ming won’t step in to help us, but he won’t stop us either.”
Zhou An sniffed and said a steady word.
The five Peak Ascension Realms had become four.
Feng Teng Emperor counted two, so that made six.
And they now, in addition to the three from the Great Chu Kingdom and the Great Yue Kingdom respectively, plus a Duke Wei, and the fact that Zhou An could call out the Guile Rally, that would be eight and a half.
Even though they didn’t have those two national fortunes, eight and a half to fight six was easy as pie.
Eunuch Wei said, “In that case, then it will begin.”
Zhou An nodded his head and nodded in agreement.
If there was a problem, then it had to be solved earlier.
He was now more curious about the cracks and what was within them, and he was also most curious about the situation of his Golden Finger.
Let’s first resolve the current critical situation, then frantically liver proficiency and raise his strength to an extreme before exploring the rift.
Zhou An felt that it was feasible.
Eunuch Wei did not nag, and then looked towards the Guile Rally, meaning that he would be leaving soon.
The Guile Coven turned his head to look at Zhou An and suddenly came up with that, “I just said that if you don’t make me feel satisfied, I’ll whip you myself, so let’s start now.”
After saying that, Guile Gathering stretched out his hand.
Eunuch Wei was also curious as to what this was all about, and how satisfying was satisfying.
Of course, he didn’t say anything and just observed silently from the side.
Zhou An sniffed and his head was filled with black lines.
He felt as if it wasn’t good in front of Eunuch Wei.
However, looking at the appearance of the Guile Rally, it was a piece of generosity.
Thinking of this, Zhou An had no choice but to use the Holy Spirit Evil Demon Body.
Soon, a white light, wrapped the Guile Gathering in it.
The voice of the Guile Assembly was transmitted from the white light.
Eunuch Wei’s face immediately became particularly odd, and the way he looked at Zhou An, also became particularly strange.
Zhou An could only hold his head until the Guile Assembly was satisfied before withdrawing the Holy Spirit Evil Demon Body’s light.
He didn’t even know what kind of mindset he was in when he was summoned out by the Guile Rally.
It wasn’t until after he had returned to this ruined county, Zhou An hadn’t even had the chance to say a word before he heard Wei Gong’s leisurely voice.
At this moment, Duke Wei hunched his back, tucked his hands into his sleeves, and slowly said in a tone of an elder educating his juniors, “Kid, we’re telling you that there are things for the Lunarians that you still can’t do.”
The corners of Zhou An’s mouth twitched madly, only feeling that he, this time, was considered to be completely misunderstood: “Eunuch Wei, don’t worry, that’s just a small test, it’s really not what you think.”
He knew it would come to this, and only felt his scalp tingle.
Eunuch Wei nodded and said, “We appreciate your strength, and even more so, we appreciate your character, but as your elder, we feel that if we have to reach out and pull you along when you are on the wrong path, at least while we are still alive, we won’t let you go down the path you shouldn’t be on.”
Zhou An nodded, indicating that he knew.
He felt that he shouldn’t drag on this topic and asked rhetorically, “Eunuch Wei, when you fought against Lord Buddha and Lord Dao, you lost your own life span, how do you feel now?”
“You don’t look at us like we’re old and decrepit.” Eunuch Wei said unconcernedly, “It’s just a little bit of longevity, we still have plenty.”
Zhou An’s head was filled with black lines, he felt that Eunuch Wei’s attribute of being a pushy king had once again descended.
Without saying a few words, he was permeated with an air of pretentiousness.
“Alright, let’s go, it’s time for our family to go find those old rivals and have a good time.”
Eunuch Wei lifted his foot and walked towards the front.
Zhou An did not hesitate either and silently followed behind.
The two of them left this frozen county and rushed to the capital of the Great Qi Kingdom as fast as they could.
And at this moment, when Eunuch Wei’s aura was exposed, the first ones to sense it were the State Master and the others lurking at the wilderness.
The State Master stroked his beard with his hand and said with a smile, “It seems that Eunuch Wei has succeeded, and since that’s the case, all of you don’t need to deliberately hide.”
The Prime Minister nodded as he was organizing the hairs on his brush, when he suddenly plucked one from it, then flexed his fingers and flicked it towards the sky.
This hairy hair was like a sharp sword that could not be broken by anything, and after cutting through the sky, it disappeared at the end of the sky.
“I will inform the Great Yue Country that at this moment, it is the time to behead the head, exterminate Da Qi, clean up and sweep up the tail, and ultimately send troops to the Barbarian Country.”
The three of them looked at each other, and then they distributed those experts they had brought with them one by one, and led them towards the capital of the Da Qi Kingdom.
And as the State Master and their side made movements, at this moment, the Far West King, who was rushing towards the Barbarian Kingdom at a normal speed, suddenly felt something in his heart.
The Far West King turned his head back and looked towards the end of the sky.
The hair of a brush cut through the sky and landed steadily in front of him.
King Far West reached out to receive it, then held the hair in his hand.
The mill-hair transformed into a line of information that traveled into King Far West’s heart, causing the corners of King Far West’s mouth to rise slightly.
Next to him, Abbot Empty Dust folded his hands with a compassionate expression, “Your Majesty, the matter has been finalized?”
The Far West King nodded, “Eunuch Wei and Zhou An have succeeded, the State Master and the others have also traveled to the capital of the Great Qi Kingdom, all of you, follow me as I depart and return to the Great Qi Kingdom!”
As the words fell, as if he couldn’t wait, the King of the Far West took the lead and rushed towards the capital of the Great Qi Kingdom.
Three ways, three routes, but the ultimate goal was all one.
And while they were rushing towards it, in the capital of the Great Qi Kingdom, Emperor Feng Teng was sitting on top of that dragon chair, gently tapping the armrests of the dragon chair.
Below him, stood Yin Yue of the Demon Removal Division, State Master Nan Yun, Prime Minister Liu Ping, and Marshal Broken Army of the Great Qi Kingdom.
Aside from his sister, all of the peak Ascension Realm experts of the Great Qi Kingdom had already appeared.
At this moment, all of them were also sitting in their seats, their faces full of gravity.
Emperor Feng Teng sighed, suddenly feeling a little depressed, “Success is also Zhou An, defeat is Ye Zhou An, I really didn’t expect that three peak Ascension Realm people besieging me would also miss.”
“Now, it seems that Old Dog Wei has also come, and those few experts from the Great Chu Kingdom have also come, plus the experts from the Great Yue Kingdom, so it turns out that they are all aiming at me.”
This was like a person who was originally aiming for that mountain ahead, but when he passed by your part of the mountain, he suddenly put all of his weapons all over your body.
It was only at this point in time that Emperor Feng Teng realized just how great his crisis was.
Below, those four peak Ascension Realm experts were all silent.
Emperor Feng Teng slowly stood up and gently patted the armrest of the dragon chair, “In that case, let’s vow to fight to the death.”
The Great Qi Kingdom had traveled all the way from its humble beginnings to the strongest nation today, what storms hadn’t it seen.
The difficulties encountered at the beginning were even more than now, so the Feng Teng Emperor at this time, although he felt that it was getting a bit difficult, he still had no intention of giving up.
“Yin Yue, from now on, immediately notify the Barbarian Kingdom and ask them to send all of their peak Ascension Realm experts and send a large army over.”
“If they fail, they will also die without a burial place.”
Yin Yue nodded, then said, “Your Majesty, I will send someone to do so.”
Emperor Feng Teng laughed coldly, “Five days time, after they arrive, we only need to hold out for five days, the Barbarian Kingdom will send people over, including the Barbarian Kingdom’s Emperor, who will also come over, and then we’ll all duke it out, what’s wrong with that?”
“Your Majesty, five days, I’m afraid it’s difficult to hold on.” Nan Yun, the Grand Qi Kingdom’s State Master sighed, “The two countries came prepared, and with Eunuch Wei, there are seven and a half peak Heaven Ascension Realms, even now, they are more than us.”
The other Peak Ascension Realm experts didn’t say anything, but the meaning was already clear.
Now that they were at a disadvantage, it would not be easy for them to hold out for five days.
Not to mention that there were other experts coming in on both sides besides these Peak Ascension Realm experts.
“How about if I use all the national fortunes of the Great Qi Kingdom as a sacrifice and lay a heavenly net around the perimeter?”
Emperor Feng Teng’s face became extremely grave, “There shouldn’t be any problem trying to hold out for five days.”
When those words were finished, the Prime Minister Liu Ping, who was on the side, suddenly stood up.
“Your Majesty, never, never, if this is the case, the entire Great Qi Kingdom, will be plunged into deep water.”
The national fortune, was the foundation of a country, just like the Great Chu Kingdom and the Great Yue Kingdom.
They had siphoned off half of their national luck, and the other half could only barely maintain their country from being damaged.
However, if one were to gamble all of the national luck like Emperor Feng Teng did, not to mention anything else, after there was no national luck to suppress it, the first ones to get hurt would probably be the people and those in the line of work.
Without the national fortune, landslides and all kinds of disasters would most likely occur.
These things, during the Hundred Kingdoms War a long time ago, had been there before.
Emperor Feng Teng sniffed and shook his head, ”It’s already come to this, what do we care about this? If we die, then we are dead, and the benefits are all for someone else to get, if we don’t die, then we can clean up the mess again, what’s wrong with that, after I die, who cares about the mountains crumbling into the earth.”
“Don’t you all think like this?”
The crowd was silent, and although they didn’t speak, they seemed to acquiesce.
Even Prime Minister Liu Ping, who had spoken earlier, was silent.
Emperor Feng Teng stood up and waved his hand, “It is decided.”
“I would like to see whether they die or I perish, gentlemen, this battle is about the rise and fall of the Great Qi State, if I am to die, perhaps I will follow the example of the Emperor of Dafeng, so that they get nothing.”
The people looked at each other and nodded their heads as a promise, then they left one after another, each going about their own arrangements.
Within the room, only Emperor Feng Teng was left alone.
After seeing no one, Emperor Feng Teng took out a wooden box and played with it in his hands.
“This fellow, the Vertical Leader, gave me this wooden box at that time, and I don’t know what it’s for, saying that it’s to be opened at a crisis point, so perhaps I can trust him for once.”
