Chapter 428: Disciple Has Something to Discuss with Master

Lu Chen's words echoed in the hall for a long time, and the ministers in the hall were already excited, especially the military generals, whose momentum was constantly rising. They were eager to lead their troops south now.

After the prelude was almost finished, Lu Chen glanced at the ministers and continued: "Today we will discuss the matter of going south to defend the king and the various preparations needed to go south to defend the king."

Although nominally going south to defend the king and fight the enemy, this war is more difficult than the war with Dawu.

Because this time their goal is to occupy the entire Daxia Dynasty, which is much larger than the land they occupied in Dawu.

And the situation inside Daxia is more complicated. Sometimes it is easy to occupy, but it is troublesome to govern.

In addition, Lu Chen's reputation is not good, and those noble families or big landlords are very afraid of him. There is no way, who asked Lu Chen to confiscate all the land in the North.

In this case, if Lu Chen wants to seize the throne of Daxia, he needs to do a lot of preparations in advance.

Especially the work in the occupied areas, as long as Lu Chen led the Northern Kingdom army into other places in Daxia, he had to occupy and govern a place. If someone made trouble in the rear, it would likely affect the army going south to defend the king.

This was very difficult for Lu Chen and the entire Northern Kingdom, so it was necessary to discuss in advance.

Lu Chen's initial plan was to wait until the baby in Yelu Nanyan and Xiao Wenyao's belly was born, and he would get more help, and then he would go south.

However, he thought about it recently. Anyway, Yelu Nanyan and Xiao Wenyao were expected to give birth within this month, so there was no need for him to wait until they gave birth before taking action.

He didn't say that he could lead the troops south immediately. He still had a lot of work to do, and at least two months were needed, so he started preparing in advance.

After Xiao Wenyao and Yelu Nanyan's baby was born, he was ready.

After Lu Chen finished speaking, the ministers in the hall began to talk about war mobilization and logistics.

Now the civil officials and military generals are holding court meetings together, so there is no military layout for the time being. Since Lu Chen took over the military power of the Northern Kingdom, the civil officials have rarely been able to get in touch with military affairs. Only a few ministers, such as Zhuge Chongguang, can get in touch with the military affairs of the Northern Kingdom.

The rest of the day today is in meetings, and the ministers have lunch and dinner in the hall.

There are too many things to discuss at once.

Lu Chen saw that it was almost eleven o'clock, so he had to let the ministers go back first and continue to discuss some topics tomorrow morning.

After sitting on the throne for a day, Lu Chen also felt very tired. With his pseudo-celestial realm, his body would not feel any fatigue, but mainly mental fatigue.

He also guessed at the beginning that there must be a lot of things when he led his troops to the south, but he didn't expect that there would be so many things that he couldn't discuss them all in one day.

After today's meeting, Lu Chen went to Fengyunyuan. The psychological fatigue made him just want to sleep quickly and have a good rest. He didn't even want to touch a woman tonight.

But just when he was about to go to Fengyun Courtyard to sleep, Liang Zong came.

Liang Zong obviously came with important information, so Lu Chen had to go to the study.

Entering the study, Liang Zong handed Lu Chen the information that Jinyiwei had found out.

"Prince, there is news from the capital that there seems to be a particularly powerful magic weapon in the palace. It is said that this magic weapon can kill celestial beings!"

Hearing this, Lu Chen's hand suddenly stopped in mid-air, and he didn't even open the information. He was stunned for a moment and then looked up at Liang Zong.

"How did you collect this information?"

Liang Zong replied: "Someone in the capital is spreading this news. The Jinyiwei has not yet found out who is spreading it."

Hearing Liang Zong's answer, Lu Chen pondered for a moment, then he opened the information in his hand and read it carefully.

After reading the content of the information, Lu Chen speculated in his heart, could it be that the Lin family was passing on the information to him?

If the Lin family discovered some secrets in the palace, it seems that there is no need to be so troublesome, and the information can be passed directly to Jinyiwei.

Since the Lin family surrendered to him, the Northern Kingdom has arranged Jinyiwei in the Lin family. Any news about the Lin family can be passed to the Northern Kingdom through Jinyiwei at the first time.

Wait...

Is it his father who is spreading the news?

If it is his father, then he does have a motive.

Maybe his father noticed that he was ready to move and was afraid that he would lead his troops to the south, so he wanted to spread false news to deter him?

No, this news may also be true.

When Lu Yi ran to the Northern Kingdom, he told him that his father had obtained an evil treasure that could instantly increase the strength of the national teacher to the realm of heaven and man.

At that time, he was doubting that maybe his father really got such a treasure, but the treasure was most likely not to improve the realm of people, but to have other functions.

Now there is news in the palace that there is a magic weapon that can kill heaven and man. This is definitely not groundless. I am afraid that someone is really passing information to the outside.

Maybe the person who spread this news is not passing information to him, but to other forces, but this information is most likely true.

If there really is a weapon that can kill the celestial being, then they must be careful this time when they go south.

Lu Chen said at this time: "Find out what the weapon is and how to guard against it."

Liang Zong said: "Yes, Your Majesty."

Liang Zong continued at this time: "Your Majesty, there is another piece of information."

Lu Chen asked: "What information?"

Generally, important information is reported on paper. Information without paper reports is basically not important information.

So Lu Chen just asked casually, and did not take Liang Zong's words to heart. At this time, Liang Zong replied: "The Taiyin Divine Cult slaughtered a city in the south for blood sacrifice."

Lu Chen's face instantly darkened.

Although he knew that the Taiyin Divine Cult was a demonic cult, he did not expect that the Taiyin Divine Cult was so cruel that it would do such a thing as slaughtering a city.

Liang Zong continued, "The Taiyin Sect has become more and more active in the south. Several vassal kings in the south have been destroyed by King Zhao, and now King Zhao is leading his army north. Now the south is empty and has no troops, which gives the Taiyin Sect an opportunity to cause chaos."

Lu Chen was silent for a moment and asked, "Where is the Crown Princess now?"

Lu Chen wanted to confirm whether this was done by Xue Linglong, the witch. Although Xue Linglong was already his woman, he still couldn't tolerate Xue Linglong doing such a thing as slaughtering the city and blood sacrifice.

Liang Zong replied, "She has been with Anping City since she left the North Country."

Hearing this, Lu Chen was slightly relieved. It was okay as long as it had nothing to do with Xue Linglong.

But then again, this witch was really patient. She was gone for several months, and she hasn't come back yet.

He originally thought that Xue Linglong would come back in two months at most.

It seems that he still underestimated her.

She is worthy of being the Saint of the Taiyin Sect.

Liang Zong asked tentatively at this time: "Prince, do we need to bring the Crown Princess back?"

Lu Chen said lightly: "No, she knows how to come back."

Although Xue Linglong has been on the run for several months, Lu Chen still firmly believes that she will come back one day.

Lu Chen asked at this time: "Is there anything else?"

Liang Zong bowed and said: "No."

Lu Chen said: "Okay, let's stop here today."

Liang Zong then said: "I'll take my leave!"

After Liang Zong left, Lu Chen did not leave the study immediately. He sat down at the desk and opened the information Liang Zong had just sent again, reading it over and over again.

He thought in his heart that if there was really a weapon in the palace that could kill the celestial being, how should he deal with it? He couldn't let Xuanyuan Chaoge go to die.

He had to find a way to steal or destroy the weapon.

But such a weapon must be guarded very tightly, and it would not be so easy to be stolen.

Lu Chen thought about it and had no choice, so he got up and walked towards Yunrongyuan.

As soon as Lu Chen entered Yunrongyuan, Yun Xianxian noticed Lu Chen's presence. After a few months of getting along, Yun Xianxian and Lu Chen's relationship became much smoother.

Yun Xianxian rarely put on a high-handed attitude in front of Lu Chen. After all, she suspected that Lu Chen, like herself, came from a high-level cultivation world.

In addition, Yun Xianxian also passed on several sets of exercises to Lu Chen. Although Lu Chen rarely went to the battlefield, these exercises were still very good for self-defense.

Noticing that Lu Chen came to Yunrongyuan again, Yun Xianxian thought to herself that she hadn't found Lu Chen for dual cultivation for a long time. Should she go to Chen Wanrong to borrow Lu Chen again today?

Whenever Lu Chen came to Yunrongyuan, he would definitely go to Chen Wanrong or Lin Wanyun to have fun.

In the past few months, Yun Xianxian had borrowed Lu Chen from Chen Wanrong many times, and practiced Dragon and Phoenix Yin Yang Gong with Lu Chen several times. Although she still had not touched Lu Chen's body, her attitude was much better than before, and she no longer asked Lu Chen to stand like the first time.

Now when she and Lu Chen practiced Dragon and Phoenix Yin Yang Gong, they always let Lu Chen run errands and sit, and then the two of them faced each other, looking like they were practicing very seriously.

Just when Yun Xianxian was about to borrow someone from Chen Wanrong's room, she suddenly found that Lu Chen was not going to Chen Wanrong's room, but was walking directly towards her room.

Yun Xianxian was stunned for a moment.

She couldn't help but wonder if her disciple wanted to do something to betray her master and destroy her ancestors?

Just when Yun Xianxian was distracted, there was a knock on the door.

"Master, I have something important to discuss with you."

Hearing this, Yun Xianxian thought about it, and then waved her hand and opened the door directly.

"Come in!"

Lu Chen then entered the bedroom.

The moment he entered the room, a fragrance rushed into Lu Chen's nostrils. For a moment, Lu Chen's tiredness was swept away and he became agitated.

At this time, Yun Xianxian was wearing a white gauze dress and sitting cross-legged on the bed. She was surrounded by fairy spirit, cold and holy, like a fairy descending to the earth.

When she saw Lu Chen coming in, her two eyes stared straight at her body. Yun Xianxian snorted lightly, "Evil disciple, how long do you want to see the master's body?"

Lu Chen came back to his senses and said with a smile: "Master is worthy of being a fairy, getting younger and younger, and more beautiful."

Yun Xianxian asked: "Did you come here today to talk to the master about this?"

Lu Chen said: "Of course not."

"I just got some information. Someone is spreading a message in the capital that there is a magic weapon in the palace that can kill celestial beings."

Hearing this, Yun Xianxian frowned slightly, and the coldness on her body became much heavier, and a layer of frost formed on the bed.

Lu Chen continued: "Disciple does not know whether this news is true or false. After all, disciple is not a celestial being, and I don't know if there is a weapon in this world that can kill celestial beings."

"So disciple wants to ask Master, does this world allow the appearance of weapons that can kill celestial beings?"

Yun Xianxian replied: "Master has such a weapon in his hand."

Hearing Yun Xianxian's answer, Lu Chen was stunned and instantly thought of what Chu Xiong had said to him.

His mother once took the artifact of Xuanyue Palace out of Xuanyue Palace a few days ago, and the Chu family wanted to keep that artifact.

It seems that Yun Xianxian is talking about the artifact that his mother took out of Xuanyue Palace.

Yun Xianxian continued, "No wonder the two traitors went to collude with Emperor Xia. It turns out that they thought they could kill me with Emperor Xia's weapon."

After hearing Yun Xianxian's words, Lu Chen suddenly felt as if he had heard some important information.

At this time, Yun Xianxian said, "Although this world does have weapons that can kill celestial beings, the conditions for using such weapons must be very harsh, and you can't use them whenever you want."

"Take my weapon for example. If I use that weapon once, it is very likely that half of my spiritual power will be consumed."

Lu Chen was stunned. Such a huge consumption?

Lu Chen immediately thought of the disappearance of Daxia warriors, and he immediately said: "In the past year, Daxia has lost many warriors above the fifth rank. The disappearance of those warriors is related to my father. Maybe they are charging the weapon."

Hearing this, Yun Xianxian asked in confusion: "Charge?"

Lu Chen said: "It means to create conditions for the use of the weapon."

Yun Xianxian said: "This is indeed possible."

Speaking of this, Yun Xianxian fell into deep thought.

Lu Chen asked: "Master, how is your strength recovered now?"

Yun Xianxian replied: "Basically, it has recovered to the level of a celestial being." (End of this chapter)
