In the temporary command post in Qingfeng Town, the candlelight flickered. Wu Hao sat upright in the main seat, his expression still grave, yet no longer showing the previous panic.
Chen Ping stood at the side, while Zi Yuan stood by. Before the three of them was spread a map of the surroundings of the Divine Capital.
“What Chen Daoyou said is absolutely right. At present, the only way is to rally the people’s hearts to break the deadlock.”
Wu Hao pointed with his fingertip at several strongholds on the map. “The guard general Zhao Qing of ‘Luoxia Pass’ to the west of the Divine Capital is my direct subordinate whom I personally promoted back then.
The commander Lin Yue of ‘Bishui Camp’ in the southeast direction, his family once received favour from the royal family, and certainly unwilling to attach to Liu Kun.
In addition, although the leader Ying Sha of the Secret Spy Division is in the Divine Capital, his secret letter has just arrived, claiming that he has secretly controlled half of the secret agents, and will rise up as soon as the time is ripe.”
Chen Ping nodded. “The sovereign only needs to write a few letters, to be personally delivered by Zi Yuan Daoyou.
She is now at the ninth rank of Earth Immortal realm. Ordinary checkpoints cannot stop her, and her identity is special, not easy to arouse Liu Kun’s vigilance.”
Zi Yuan immediately accepted the order. “Please rest assured, sovereign. I will certainly not fail the mission!”
Wu Hao no longer hesitated. He immediately took brush and ink, stamped with the dragon pattern jade seal, and handed the three secret letters to Zi Yuan.
After Zi Yuan hid them close to her body, she turned into a streak of green rainbow overnight and disappeared into the night.
Outside the command post, Chen Ping looked in the direction Zi Yuan left, praying for Zi Yuan in his heart.
Having experienced life and death in Duanhun Valley and healing in Zhenmo Tower, he absolutely would not allow Zi Yuan to have any more accidents. After all, Zi Yuan was also a woman he had licked.
“Sovereign, I need to go back to Leiyin Temple once. Although Leiyin Temple has the dragon pattern bell temporarily suppressing, I’m afraid of any accidents, letting those demon souls break through the prohibition.”
After Zi Yuan left, Chen Ping said to Wu Hao.
“Chen Daoyou, you must be careful all the way. Do you want me to send the forbidden army to accompany you?” Wu Hao said!
“No need. The sovereign still needs to guard against Liu Kun. Better to keep the forbidden army by your side.”
After Chen Ping finished speaking, he leaped up, operating the Yuhuo Step to the extreme. In just a few hours, he arrived at Leiyin Temple!
But just arriving at Leiyin Temple, Chen Ping discovered that the surroundings of Leiyin Temple were already enveloped in thick demonic qi. Wuji Daozhang leading the disciples of Leiyin Temple, all guarding in front of the dragon pattern bell, each with flushed faces, their spiritual power continuously inputting into the dragon pattern bell.
Hu Mazi was also sweating profusely, pasting talismans one by one from his hand onto the dragon pattern bell. But as soon as a talisman was pasted, it was immediately eroded by the demonic qi.
It was obvious that the dragon pattern bell was about to fail to suppress these demon souls. These demon souls were about to break through the prohibition.
“Chen Ping, how is it? Did you find the Leiyin Bell?”
Seeing Chen Ping, Hu Mazi hurriedly asked!
Wuji Daozhang also looked at Chen Ping. But he now didn’t even have the strength to speak, not daring to relax at all.
Chen Ping shook his head. “No…”
After speaking, Chen Ping instantly injected streams of divine dragon power into the dragon pattern bell. The dragon pattern bell erupted with a dragon roar, followed by flashing golden light, temporarily suppressing that demonic qi!
But everyone dared not relax at all, exerting all their strength to suppress the demon souls.
At the same time, in the secret chamber of the Prime Minister’s Mansion in the Divine Capital, Liu Kun was standing opposite a black shadow.
The black shadow was enveloped in dense black qi, face unclear. Only a pair of scarlet eyes flickered in the darkness. It was the great elder Xue Wuying of the Evil Path Hall.
“Liu Xiangguo, you called this old man here, just for that so-called ‘forcibly opening the demon soul seal’?”
Xue Wuying’s voice was hoarse like a broken gong, with undisguised mockery. “The Sacrificial Codex is an ancient divine object, recording the core key to the seal. Without it, relying only on our power, it’s simply a fool’s dream!”
Liu Kun’s face darkened, forcibly suppressing the displeasure in his heart. “Why is Elder Xue Wuying hasty to deny? That old thing Wu Hao is impervious to persuasion, obviously won’t hand over the Sacrificial Codex.
The princess is in my hands. Although she can restrain him, we cannot delay. The third hall master of the Divine Hall has already sent people to urge about the marriage matter. If there is no reply for a long time, he will surely become suspicious.
Once the Divine Hall unites with Wu Hao, you and I will both die without a burial place!”
