Chapter 5 5. Summer insects cannot talk about ice, and well frogs cannot talk about the sea (revised)
To get from the City of Slaughter to Tiandou City, one needs to cross the border between the Xingluo Empire and the Tiandou Empire.
Whether you go from the Yunluo Principality above, pass through the Pelagie Kingdom, cross the border, enter the Fastino Province under the rule of the Tiandou Empire, take the line of Notting City → Soto City → Xilu City to Jialing Pass, and finally arrive at Tiandou City.
It is better to go through the Antonio Province below, pass through the Jincheng Mountains, enter the neutral area of the Spirit Hall, cross the border line, and go straight to the city of Silves. Then, cross the Frost River and reach Tiandou City from the western waterway.
No matter which way you go, you have to cross the border.
Qian Renxue finally chose route one.
That is to say, take the route of Yunluo Principality.
Judging from the distance, the Antonio Province below is closer, but, at the same time, the risk is higher. Not only does one have to pass through the Jincheng Mountains, a defensive barrier extremely close to Xingluo City, but also through the Spirit Hall's base camp, Wuhun City. Qian Renxue doesn't want to see that greedy woman at all, even if that woman is her biological mother.
Moreover, there are unicorns as a means of transportation.
Even if the route in Yunluo Principality is longer, it is not much longer.
Eight unicorns spread their wings.
He flew up, pulling the carriage.
It only took about eight hours to cross the Yunluo Principality and the Pelagie Kingdom, crossed the border, arrived at the Fastino Province in the Tiandou Empire, and stayed in the city of Notting to rest.
For the Lord of Notting City, this tremendous wealth has finally fallen upon him. He wished he could receive the Crown Prince of the Tiandou Empire and the distinguished guest who even the Crown Prince treated with courtesy as if they were his own father.
Qian Renxue has accumulated a good reputation over the years.
He is respectful to the wise and humble to the humble, which is quite the character of a wise ruler.
In sharp contrast to Qian Renxue, the "pirated version of Xue Qinghe", are the other useless and dissolute princes of Emperor Xue Ye.
For example: The Fourth Prince Avalanche.
He would parade through the streets of Tiandou City from time to time, often causing serious injuries to people. Every time he went out, small vendors would flee as if they had seen a wolf.
For example: the third prince who died long ago.
He is obsessed with women and abducts young girls. Even if no one in the society dares to say that it is wrong, after the child dies, every household will applaud after the door is closed.
For example: the second prince who died suddenly.
The Second Prince was ambitious and cruel to the people of Tiandou until he suddenly died in his mansion. Emperor Xue Ye felt it was very strange and sent people to investigate the Second Prince's mansion. They found out that the Second Prince had been raising a private army of 2,000 people for five years, and the cost of raising this private army was extracted from many industries that could not be seen in the light. The Second Prince even reached into the national treasury. This investigation discovery made Emperor Xue Ye furious, and he directly demoted all the Second Prince's descendants to commoners. However, he still took the royal family's face into consideration and only said that the Second Prince died suddenly due to illness, without telling the truth.
But most officials know about this.
Therefore, Qian Renxue, this "pirated version of Xue Qinghe", did not do very well. She had no merit in expanding the territory, nor in controlling floods. She just worked diligently to handle the government affairs of the Tiandou Empire on behalf of Emperor Xue Ye. Now that Emperor Xue Ye's health was getting worse, as long as she did not make any mistakes, she would definitely be the future Tiandou emperor. Who made her competitors all useless?
As for whether these princes are useless, all we can say is that Qian Renxue’s methods are too advanced!
She is the bright and just one.
Dark and evil, it's also her.
Even Emperor Xue Ye does not have a Titled Douluo to protect him. Poison Douluo is only a priest of the Heaven Dou Empire, not a bodyguard of Emperor Xue Ye. However, Qian Renxue has two Titled Douluos in her hands. If that is not enough, she can ask her grandfather Qian Daoliu for support. Several priests in the priest hall are about the same age as Qian Daoliu. They have watched Qian Renxue grow up with their own eyes. They call him Young Master out of respect for the Angel God, not because they have no affection for him other than respect.
If Qian Renxue had such a trump card and still failed in the palace coup, what should be questioned is not Qian Renxue's ability, but Qian Renxue's IQ.
"My only concern now is the reaction from the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect."
"If Tiandou is united in purpose."
"Led by Dugu Bo, the deans of the Four Elements Academy are all Soul Douluo, and the three teaching committee members of the Tiandou Royal Academy are also Soul Douluo. Counting the sects and families, such as the Nine-Hearted Begonia lineage and the Black-Armored Turtle Xu family, there are four-attribute families that once belonged to the Haotian Sect."
"This is a very unstable force." "They have the ability to hold out until the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect arrives."
"By then, what I need to face is not one Title Douluo and a dozen Soul Douluos, but three Title Douluos and more than thirty Soul Douluos."
Sitting in the carriage, looking at the increasingly familiar scenery outside the window and the majestic Tiandou City in the distance, Qian Renxue sighed: "It's like I cooked a table of food, but two tables of guests came. How can I eat it?"
"Eat it as a buffet!" Ye Qingcang, like Qian Renxue, looked at the Tiandou City that was getting closer and closer to him, and said something to wake him up: "First, make it a done deal and eat up Tiandou City, then kill Xue Beng, Xue Xing and the Tiandou royal family. Find an excuse to keep Ning Rongrong in Tiandou City and have your people keep an eye on her. You go to the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect in person and confront Ning Fengzhi. Give him two choices, and he must choose one of the two. One choice is to continue to be your teacher and follow you to compete for the world, kick the Haotian Sect from the position of the world's number one sect and push the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect up. The other choice is to kill you and attract the Spirit Hall's desperate revenge. At the same time, Ning Rongrong in Tiandou City will die in an accident."
Snake Spear Douluo and Thorny Porpoise Douluo both lowered their heads.
We dare not say anything, we dare not ask anything.
I just hope you two examiners are happy.
"It's a bit cruel, but I like it..." Qian Renxue's mouth corners slightly raised: "Ning Fengzhi is a smart man. He knows how to choose in order to benefit himself, the entire Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, and his daughter Ning Rongrong!"
"If his stance is similar to that of the Haotian Sect, and he only supports the Tiandou Imperial Family instead of supporting someone in the Tiandou Imperial Family, he could really become one of the unstable factors in the next palace coup."
"Unfortunately, he wanted too much."
"When he gets the position he wants and becomes your teacher, he will be tied to you and become a knife in your hand. At this time, as long as you give him a little hope, he will follow you and become your die-hard fan unwillingly."
As Ye Qingcang spoke, he took out a jade token about the size of a palm from his ring. He pressed his finger and the jade token suddenly lit up.
Several messages circled in black frames popped up on the jade plate one after another.
Black text on a white background, crystal clear.
“No matter how many times I see it, I am always amazed by your talent…” Looking at the jade token that Ye Qingcang put back into the ring, Qian Renxue exclaimed from the bottom of her heart: “Just the jade seal machine you developed is an amazing thing; the concept of soul guide was not proposed by you, and the first soul guide was not made by you, but only in your hands can the soul guide shine its light. Unknowingly, it has affected our lives and even affected the outcome of battles between soul masters!”
"Excessive praise."
"I am just a follower of what others have said."
"We have inherited the wisdom of our predecessors and brought this wisdom to the world."
Ye Qingcang shook his head, very sober: "The progress of the times cannot be stopped. Even if I am not here, there will be others who will bring soul guides to the eyes of the world and let the world see the charm of soul guides. I am just one step ahead of others, and I dare not compare myself with the pioneer."
When Qian Renxue heard this, she just shook her head.
She understood Ye Qingcang's character.
Ye Qingcang is good in everything except being too modest.
However, in Ye Qingcang's words, he was just telling the truth, because when a person has a higher mountain in his heart that he wants to climb, he will not care about the mud under his feet. In the eyes of those who cannot climb, he who has climbed to the top of the mountain is a legend, but on the mountain in his heart, he may have only climbed one tenth, one hundredth, one thousandth, or one ten-thousandth of this mountain. In the face of the remaining heights, what can he be proud of?
People are different.
Some people have never tasted abalone or lobster in their entire lives.
Some people can eat abalone and lobster until they vomit.
A summer insect cannot talk about ice, and a well frog cannot talk about the sea. The truth is just like this!
Open the picture.
