Chapter 1398: Conquering the Four Directions
"Master...are you asleep?" Yan Ruyu's voice came from outside the door. Xiao Chen frowned and said, "No, do you have something to do?"
"You are such a person, have you forgotten so quickly?"
Yan Ruyu walked in, and the candlelight in the hall swayed, reflecting her charming figure, as if the coldness in the hall was reduced a little.
"What are you doing?" Seeing her charming appearance at this time, Xiao Chen frowned and asked.
"Young Master, you are asking even though you already know the answer..."
Yan Ruyu smiled and covered her lips with her hand, whispering, "Young Master said during the day that from today on, I am yours, so I am here to serve you in bed..."
"You may have misunderstood me."
Xiao Chen walked towards her and said, "What I meant is that from now on, everything in Youxutian belongs to me. Since everything belongs to me, it naturally includes you..."
"Oh, I know, I know, let's hurry up..."
"Hurry up? What do you mean?"
"Strange, it's dark, aren't you going to sleep?"
"Sleep? Of course."
Xiao Chen looked at her and said lightly, "It's just that it's inconvenient for a man and a woman to be in the same room at night. Palace Master, please come in." After that, he waved a sign to the door.
"Hey, no..." Yan Ruyu looked at him blankly and said, "I came here..." "I know, Palace Master, please come in." Xiao Chen made a please gesture again. "Hey, you, you... How can you be so unromantic?" Yan Ruyu looked at him strangely, frowned slightly, and thrust out her chest again, "Hey, am I not beautiful enough? Do you think I am beautiful?" "Everyone in the world knows that beauty is beauty, and this is evil... Palace Master, please." "What is evil, what a mess, you are the evil one..." Yan Ruyu stamped her feet in anger and walked out of the hall. When her footsteps gradually faded away, Xiao Chen said again, "By the way, there is one more thing I forgot to tell you." "What is it? Have you figured it out, or do you want me to come back? "
Yan Ruyu turned around again, and just happened to see the shadow of Xiao Chen reflected on the paper window in the palace under the dim candlelight. She thought that even his shadow was so cold...
After a while, a voice came from inside, "On Penglai Island, your senior brother died in my hands."
The entire palace corridor became very quiet, with only the sound of insects chirping intermittently in the grass. After a long time, Yan Ruyu said, "So what."
Her voice was obviously much lower. Xiao Chen said, "If you want to avenge him, that's fine."
"Hehe..."
Unexpectedly, Yan Ruyu smiled and said, "What does Yan Wen's death have to do with me? Why should I avenge him? He left this mess to me, but he went to look for some elixir of immortality. What is he thinking in his heart? Do you really think I don't know? Hehe..."
"It's late at night, please go back, Palace Master, and send someone to deliver the map tomorrow. "
Xiao Chen's voice came from the palace again. This time Yan Ruyu did not stay any longer and turned around to go back the way she came.
...
The next morning, Xiao Chen just came out of the palace and was about to see Xian'er, but he saw Yan Ruyu coming across the corridor again, dressed more beautifully than last night.
"You so early?"
"Of course... cough."
"Cough... cough!"
"Cough cough!"
Yan Ruyu walked over, coughing all the way. Xiao Chen looked at her and said, "You caught a cold last night and your throat is uncomfortable?"
"You..." Yan Ruyu bit her lips and looked at him, thinking, could this man's head be made of elm?
Xiao Chen took out a jade bottle from his sleeve, handed it to her, and said, "This medicine is what I brought from the mortal world. It is made with Sichuan Fritillary Loquat and other ingredients, and is made with ancient secret methods. It is very effective for moisturizing the throat..."
"You..."
This time Yan Ruyu was completely stunned.
"No need to thank me. "
Xiao Chen nodded slightly, put the jade bottle in her hand, and went out to the corridor. He came back in the afternoon and found that she had not left yet.
"Is your throat better?"
"Yes, it's fine... Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty." Yan Ruyu looked dazed, thinking that this man... he, does he not like women?
"Why are you looking at me like that?"
"Ah, no, no..."
Yan Ruyu came back to her senses and immediately took out a scroll from her sleeve and said, "This is the map of the entire Youxu Heaven and the Wanzhang Immortal Realm."
"Well. "
Xiao Chen took the map from her and opened it. He saw that the mountains and rivers on the map were clearly marked, and the markings were quite detailed.
It turned out that outside of Youxutian, there were four largest forces. These four forces checked and balanced each other, and there were also many small forces around them.
Until now, after reading this detailed map, Xiao Chen realized that the entire Youxutian was just a star in this Wanzhang Immortal Domain.
"Taiyi, Tiansha, Wuxiang, Taohua."
Yan Ruyu said the names of the four forces at this time, and then said, "Taiyi's Xingluo Patriarch, this person has the greatest ambition. He has always wanted to break through Youxutian in secret, swallow up the other three families, and then become the only master of this Wanzhang Immortal Domain, but he has always been checked and balanced by the other three families...As for Tiansha King, this person's ambition is also not small, and he has always coveted Youxutian. "
At this moment, Yan Ruyu briefly explained the situation of the four major forces. Xiao Chen looked at the map in silence. It was not difficult for him to see that if there were not several powerful ancient formations in Youxutian, these four forces would have attacked over the past few hundred years.
And this time, such a huge change occurred in Youxu Palace, and it is hard to guarantee that the four forces will not be ready to move. Now the entire Youxutian is extremely chaotic. He wants to rule the world and really be as stable as a mountain...
In addition to expelling all the foreign forces, more importantly, he wants to make these four forces surrender and make them dare not rebel. Otherwise, once he leaves, Youxutian will be in chaos again.
As the saying goes, it is easy to conquer a country but difficult to defend it. Once Youxutian is conquered again, the powerful enemy will have the advantage of time and place, and it will be almost impossible for him to take it back.
By then, let alone heaven and earth, and the wide range of cultivators from the world, even he himself would probably be hunted down endlessly. After all, there is a saying in the world that one should root out the grass. If Taiyi's Xingluo Patriarch took down Youxutian, would he be able to sleep peacefully if he didn't die?
At this moment, seeing that he was thoughtful and silent, Yan Ruyu snorted and said, "Well, now that you know how powerful these four forces are, do you still want to fight?"
After listening to her, Xiao Chen slowly put away the map and said slowly, "If these four forces are not taken down, if I leave one day, will this Youxu Palace change its owner again?"
He stopped talking here and looked at Yan Ruyu motionlessly, "Palace Master, what do you think?"
Hearing this, Yan Ruyu stopped talking. This sentence hit the nail on the head. Once he left, if those people of Xingluo Patriarch came to attack, would she have to resist these people at that time? Today she surrendered to Xiao Chen, and one day she could also surrender to Xingluo Patriarch.
"Oh, there's one more thing."
Xiao Chen put the map away and stared at Yan Ruyu motionlessly. Yan Ruyu came back to her senses at this time, stunned for a moment, and asked, "What's the matter?"
Xiao Chen looked outside the corridor pavilion and said, "This ancient fairyland was originally a fragment of the original fairyland, so I'm looking for an innate spiritual treasure containing the ancient spirit. Palace Master, can you keep an eye out for me?"
"Innate spiritual treasure?"
Yan Ruyu frowned. Although this ancient fairyland was a fragment of the fairyland in the past, this innate spiritual treasure was not something that could be asked for easily? The fairyland rain and dew that condensed in the Penglai realm last time also took thousands of years to condense...
Xiao Chen said, "During this period of time, you can read ancient books, but if you have any clues, you can tell me."
