Seven Hundred and Thirty-Eight. Frightened
Although Saint Lu refused to admit defeat, he knew that Dongfang Cangtian had no place for him to gain a foothold in a short period of time.
Regardless of what happened to Chang'an City, as long as Hongqing Taoist Patriarch persisted in his own way, it would be difficult for Confucian saints to make progress.
Hongqing Taoist Patriarch tried to persuade him, but although Sage Lu appreciated his old friend's kindness, he did not intend to accept it.
It was difficult to achieve anything on his own for the time being, so he had no choice but to look for foreign aid.
After ordering all the teachers and students of Doushi Academy under his command to withdraw from Dongfang Cangtian, the sage took the first step and headed to Yangtian in the southeast of the Gobi Desert.
The first person he looked for was Yan Shengren, the head of Southeast Yangtian Confucianism and the dean of Tianhu Academy.
Although, Saint Yan had previously teamed up with Chang'an City to deal with Ye Qingpeng.
"Ye Qingpeng is not a virtuous person, and Ming Tonghui is not a wise king either."
In the Tianhu Academy, two Confucian saints sat opposite each other. Saint Lu said calmly: "His ambitions are even greater than those of the emperors of the Song and Xia dynasties."
To be honest, he didn't like Song Emperor Zhao Kuangming and his ilk at all.
After the other party colluded with Ye Qingpeng and the Golden Crow Demon Lord, Lu Shengren was even more disappointed.
Even if they did not die under Chang'an City, this Confucian saint did not intend to cooperate with them again.
As the owner of this place, Yan Shengren did not contact Li Shulou and others. Instead, he entertained his classmates as usual: "The Lord of Chang'an City has great ambitions, and I know that."
He said calmly: "However, some of my students went to Chang'an City to observe the weather. Although they were ambitious, they were still considerate of the people's strength. The people lived a healthy life. Compared with the Song and Xia dynasties, it looked more prosperous."
Saint Lu shook his head slightly: "It's just a show of force. If its aggressive and militaristic attitude doesn't change, how can it be considerate of the people?"
"Not impossible."
Yan Shengren did not object: "Because of this, I am considering whether to go to Chang'an City in person for verification."
Saint Lu had a look of surprise on his face.
Yan Shengren added: "Chang'an City has officially invited me to go to Dongfang Cangtian and his party."
Saint Lu was silent for a moment before speaking again: "It seems that you are ready to agree?"
"Seeing is believing, I do have this plan." Yan Shengren smiled calmly: "Of course, my eyesight may be insufficient, but it is better to see it with my own eyes than to hear it through hearsay."
He looked at his classmates with a smile: "The worst possibility is that I will be detained by Chang'an City for some pretext. Then I will ask you to help contact the rescue, but I don't think that will be the case."
Saint Lu said: "You have no enmity or enmity with Chang'an City. If they do harm to you, they should be dragged down by me."
"I thought that with the magnanimity of the Lord of Chang'an City, it wouldn't be like this."
Saint Yan paused: "Maybe my metaphor is not very appropriate, but he has the aura of a supreme being in the past."
Saint Lu's expression changed slightly, but soon returned to normal: "No one wants another Supreme to appear."
Yan Shengren smiled: "Yes."
"So you still plan to go to Chang'an?" Saint Lu asked again.
Saint Yan nodded: "Someone has to take the first step."
"Take care." Saint Lu said in a deep voice.
"Thank you." Yan Shengren sighed with emotion: "It's a pity that I can't contact the teacher, otherwise I might ask him to give me some advice."
Lu Shengren frowned: "What about Teacher?"
Yan Shengren said: "I don't know the details, but if I think about it carefully, the one who makes the teacher care so much should be between them."
After a pause, he added: "The teacher didn't mention Chang'an City."
Sage Lu perked up after hearing this: "Thousand Tree Buddha and Ananda Bodhisattva are also unable to contact the Buddha, and Taoist Master Xuanqing cannot contact the Taoist Master. From this point of view, they are the same as the teacher..."
Saint Yan understood what the other party meant: "What happened to the Supreme Lord in the past has happened again, but now it's the Lord's turn?"
Saint Lu nodded heavily: "This explains why Teacher and the others cannot be distracted."
"No matter what the outcome is, matters concerning Chang'an City must be reported to Master Ming and listened to his teachings." Saint Yan said.
Lu Shengren stood up and said goodbye: "You are determined to go to Chang'an. I can't advise you. I will relocate you under Doushimen to avoid any unforeseen circumstances that will implicate you."
Saint Yan also stood up, shook his head and said, "Actually, it doesn't matter."
Saint Lu said goodbye and left, and Saint Yan saw him out.
Chu Xinglin, a teacher at Tianhu Academy, and others were sent out together.
After Saint Lu said goodbye, Chu Xinglin looked worried: "Teacher, are you going to Chang'an?"
At the beginning, he personally went to Dongfang Cangtian to invite Chang'an City to join forces to deal with Ye Qingpeng from Southeast Yangtian.
The result should be said to be quite successful.
In a four-on-four situation, Li Shulou, Shen Herong, plus Xia Huang and Yan Shengren, successfully suppressed the combination of Ye Qingpeng, Jinwu Demon Lord, Kunpeng Clan Chief Feng Yuan and Xuanqing Daozu.
Even though Thousand Tree Buddha may be with them, there is still the Lord of Chang'an City who has not shown up in Chang'an City.
As a result, the Great Xia Divine Dynasty successfully destroyed the Great Qi Divine Dynasty within the Southeast Yangtian.
The Nine Dragon Temple of Xuanqing Taozu and the Thousand Trees Pure Land of Thousand Tree Buddha were also affected.
Although there are still several masters on the opposite side, they can no longer maintain a foothold in Southeast Yangtian.
The two parties had previously joined forces, and although there were consequences, the initial goal was achieved.
The problem lies behind.
Neither Emperor Xia nor Tianhu Academy expected the Lord of Chang'an City to be so fierce.
Song Emperor Zhao Kuangming, Kui Niu Patriarch Tai Ting, Golden Crow Demon Lord, Thousand Tree Buddha, Xuanqing Taoist Patriarch, five powerful men were all killed in Chang'an City!
This result is really unexpected.
If the news is true, it means that just as Chang'an City cleans the eastern sky, it can clean the southeastern sun sky.
Although Li Shulou and others were still guests in the Great Xia Dynasty, both Yan Sheng and Chu Xinglin knew that Emperor Xia's attitude had secretly changed and he was extremely fearful of Chang'an City.
Such a person, since he has made a decision, will never regret driving the tiger to devour the wolf.
But the tiger's mouth is at the door of the house. It must be a lie to say that Emperor Xia is not on guard.
For Tianhu Academy, how to position its relationship with Chang'an City is also an important issue that must be considered.
"Chang'an kindly invites me, and I can't refuse. I can set my own time, so there's no rush."
Yan Shengren looked around and saw the worried faces of Chu Xinglin and others. He couldn't help but smile and shake his head:
"However, it won't take too long. I will go there and have a look. Then you will have a teaching test and everything will be as before."
Chu Xinglin and others saluted together: "Yes, teacher."
Everyone in Tianhu Academy noticed the changes in the atmosphere of Xia Dynasty. Li Shulou and others in Xia Dynasty were also keenly aware of one or two of them.
"Boss, is this the result of your seclusion? To be honest, I was a little scared." Although Ao Kong said this, he had a carefree smile on his face.
The talisman on his forehead flashed with light, and Zhang Dongyun's calm voice came from it: "Some of it is also a gift from the immortal ruins."
Shen Herong smiled: "Brother can't help but scare us, and also scare the people here in Southeast Yangtian."
