Chapter 1001 Reaching a Consensus
Everyone didn't know what happened.
Why did the two people who were at war with each other just now stop suddenly?
Qu Yang asked tremblingly: "Champion Hou, aren't you going to fight?"
Zhou Ran looked at Hou Bufan: "Are you still fighting?"
"do not fight."
Hou Bufan struggled to get up and stood behind the king in an orderly manner.
The general of the Ming Dynasty no longer objected, and everyone could finally get to the point.
Zhou Ran looked solemn and said: "The three kings, the real rulers of the Sword Sect, are not actually the master Aotian, but Beiming behind Aotian. Aotian is just his puppet! After the sword ceremony, Seeing that the time was right, Bei Ming came to the front from behind the scenes and became the leader of the Sword Sect. This man was ambitious and would not be satisfied with being the leader of one sect. His goal was the entire Southern Territory, and even the entire Northern Territory if he did not stop him! Due to Ming’s conspiracy, the entire Southern Territory will become a scorched earth.”
Zhou Ran's opening remarks made the three kings look unhappy.
As the leader of the country, he can only watch his citizens being insulted by Jian Zong, but he can't do anything about it. This kind of useless feeling cannot be described in words.
Not only did they cede the mining rights to the spirit stone veins, but they also had to provide the sword sect with annual coins. Even the lives of the citizens could not be protected, making the citizens become sacrifices to the sword sect.
No matter who it is, it is intolerable.
Xiang Shang, the leader of Shang Kingdom, was always straightforward and said: "Champion, please don't show off your words. Tell me how the three southern kingdoms must contribute to deal with Jian Zong!"
Zhou Ran stopped hiding and said directly: "Bei Ming, the leader of the Sword Sect, has the strength of the immortal realm. Even I am not sure of victory. The really scary thing about the Sword Sect is not Beiming's strength. It is the Heaven-Destroying Sword Formation set up in the Southern Territory. This sword formation is everywhere, covering the entire Southern Territory. In the sword formation, Beiming is an invincible existence, immortal. If the sword formation is broken, I will be defeated. His possibility."
"Champion Marquis, do you mean to let Shang Guo, Xu Guo, and Ming Guo help you break the Jian Zong sword formation?" Xiang Shang asked cautiously.
"Yes." Zhou Ran nodded, "But breaking the formation is not easy. This formation covers the entire southern realm. Even if Beiming has the power of an immortal, he can't do it. If my guess is correct, the Heaven-Destroying Sword Formation has been successfully deployed. , It is related to the things hidden under the palaces of the three kings in the south. Three kings, please be sure to investigate carefully! "
Xiang Shang and Xu Ping looked at each other and said nothing.
Although it is a big secret, as a champion, Zhou Ran is not surprised to know.
On the contrary, Yang Daoming looked stunned and couldn't understand Zhou Ran's words at all.
"Prince Champion, what is hidden under the palace?" Yang Daoming asked curiously.
Zhou Ran smiled slightly and said: "That is the lifeblood of the entire inner domain!"
Yang Daoming still wanted to ask, but Zhou Ran had already said that.
There are outsiders present, so it is not convenient to mention this matter to others.
Among the three kingdoms in the south, the Ming Kingdom was the most turbulent. The position of the king changed frequently, and now more power fell into the hands of the general.
It's not surprising that Yang Daoming doesn't know about the Shura Pillar and the Turbid Breath.
Xiang Shang and Xu Ping were too lazy to pay attention to Yang Daoming and asked Zhou Ran directly.
"Marquis Champion, if the huge sword formation in the southern border is really related to the dark power in the inner domain, then what should we do? What kind of method can we use to make the sword formation disappear?"
"Yes! This is no small matter! I never thought that the always upright Sword Sect would be involved with the darkest force in the inner realm!"
Facing the questions from the two kings, Zhou Ran added: "When I was in the Western Region,
The situation is much more serious than it is now, and the situation in the south seems to be better. If my guess is correct, the Sword Sect has only borrowed part of its power. As long as the two kings strengthen the seal after returning, the power of the sword formation can be greatly reduced. Once the sword formation cannot exert its original power, it will be an anti-sword alliance. It’s time to counterattack the Sword Sect! "
Nodding heavily to Shang and Xu Ping, the two kings immediately stood up.
"Don't worry, Champion, I will definitely do what you say after I go back!"
"The fate of the Southern Territory is in your hands!"
Although Yang Daoming was confused, he stood up and said goodbye to Zhou Ran.
The three kings came to Jiuqu City from the capital. This was such a secret. If the people of Jianzong knew about it, the consequences would be disastrous.
Therefore, the three kings cannot stay in Jiuqu City for a long time.
Now that an agreement had been reached, the three kings walked out of the secret room and once again got on the carriage that came.
The carriage sped away and left Jiuqu City not long after.
Zhou Ran and others watched the three carriages leave at the head of the city. Qu Yang then said to Zhou Ran: "Champion Hou, you really are yours. Even when facing the most noble man in the south, you don't have the slightest humility. On the contrary, it's your sharpness. It has overshadowed the three kings.”
Zhou Ran smiled slightly but didn't answer.
Qu Yang said again: "Marquis Champion, how sure are you of this matter? As long as Jian Zong's sword formation is broken, we can launch a general attack on Jian Zong, right?"
"Of course!" Zhou Ran said seriously, "But if everything goes as planned, I'm afraid this game will be simple."
Qu Yang was confused and was about to ask again, but Zhou Ran stopped talking.
After Zhou Ran returned to the city lord's mansion, he began to practice in seclusion.
The battle with the Sword Sect was about to begin, and he had to face Beiming, a strong man in the immortal realm. Even if there was no sword formation to cause trouble, it would still be a tough battle.
Therefore, Zhou Ran must be fully prepared.
City Lord Qu Yang arranged a quiet room for Zhou Ran. No one disturbed Zhou Ran when he was practicing. Qu Yang also gave him the elixir of the City Lord's Mansion without any reservation.
Unknowingly, Zhou Ran had been in seclusion for more than ten days.
Qu Yang would not disturb Zhou Ran unless it was absolutely necessary, but this time, it was absolutely necessary.
It was a letter from the Lord of Shang State. The envoy repeatedly urged that it must be handed over to Zhou Ran in person.
Knowing that the matter was of great importance, Qu Yang broke into Zhou Ran's seclusion room and handed the letter to Zhou Ran.
Zhou Ran opened the letter and saw the words on it, and his face suddenly sank.
Shang State Lord Xiang Shang had followed his instructions to strengthen the seal of Shang State Shura Pillar, but for some reason, Shura Pillar had an abnormality.
Because the matter was confidential, Xiang Shang could not tell anyone, so he could only tell Zhou Ran and ask Zhou Ran to come to the capital for a talk. .
Zhou Ran also knew that the matter was of great importance. Strengthening the seal of the Shura Pillar was the only way to weaken the Sword Sect's sword formation. If anything abnormal happened, the Heaven-Destroying Sword Formation would be as solid as a rock.
Without further ado, Zhou Ran burned the letter from the Shang Kingdom, said goodbye to Qu Yang, changed his appearance, and then left Jiuqu City and headed straight for the capital of the Shang Kingdom.
