The #1 Pretty Boy of the Immortal Path-Chapter 180 - Written Challenge of War

Chapter 180 - Written Challenge of War

Edited by Animeart

The Empress quietly engaged in her own affairs and played with her own Phoenix.

The younger brother was put in confinement.

The other brother took the Yi Ri Divine Arrow and escaped.

The world was quiet.

Because the world was quiet, Ling Fengxiao was also very peaceful.

Lin Shu accompanied his smooth and calm little chick, to the Wutong Court.

But although this little chick was in a peaceful mood, he was still worried.

As soon as he returned to Wutong Court, he picked up the piece of incense charcoal he had brought from the incense burner in the Emperor’s bedroom, and inspected it.

Lin Shu knew what he was suspicious of.

“One question.” Ling Fengxiao crushed the fragrant charcoal with a jade stick, and said, “Dual cultivation with the Phoenix blood can prolong life and eliminate all diseases. Then why did my father linger on his sickbed and be unconscious for more than three years? ”

Lin Shu set up a piece of equipment for him.

The courses in the academy were still very useful. Through the identification of the scents and some small experiments, you can determine what kind of medicinal materials were used in this incense.

They talked as they tested.

After telling the maidservants and the palace staff to retire, Ling Fengxiao returned to Xiao Shao’s form.

“Candle tail grass.” Lin Shu handed him a handful of gray grass.

Xiao Shao took it over and continued: “One more thing, why can Xiao Xuan sneak into the palace?”

Lin Shu: “Is there no defensive barrier in the Imperial Palace?”

“Yes, there is.” Xiao Shao said in a deep voice: “Nine levels of enchantment, and it is difficult for any ordinary person or cultivator to enter… Especially those from Northern Xia.”

Lin Shu: “There is a new witchcraft in Northern Xia.”

Ling Fengxiao shook his head: “There is one thing that I am worried about.”

Lin Shu handed him a box of Flowing Gold Sand and said, “Hmm?”

“The key positions of the palace defense… Because the Emperor Father was unconscious, the Empress Mother has been in control for the past three years.”

Lin Shu said, “The Empress is not like… A person with evil intentions.”

He knew the Empress’s motives. The Empress had told him in person that everything was to keep Xiao Shao alive.

“I can’t think of any reason why my mother would do such a thing.” Xiao Shao said, “But from now on, I’m afraid I can’t trust anyone else.”

Lin Shu nodded.

The situation was treacherous. Many puzzles made people clueless and suspicious. All they could do was to be extremely cautious.

In short…No matter what conspiracy and tricks they encountered, they are now people with extremely high cultivation bases.

Thinking of this, Lin Shu asked again: “Xiao Lingyang said that the Yi Ri Divine Arrow can wipe out those with Phoenix blood. Will it hurt you?”

“According to his words, it seems to be true.” Xiao Shao thought for a moment and replied, “But Xiao Xuan’s acquisition of the bow and arrow was just to take my life… But how can I not be aware of a bow and arrow.”

Lin Shu thought, “Right.”

Ordinary cultivators, though, could see the bow and arrow and would be aware of it, but by the time they react, they have already lost a lot of time. However, once a person’s cultivation base reaches the Tribulation realm, they can sense the slight changes within a few miles of the body, and every movement of grass and trees can be perceived. Dodging a bow and arrow would be very easy, even for himself, he did not believe that he could be sneak-attacked by a bow and arrow.

Xiao Shao was even more on a different level than the ordinary cultivators. People with a high level of regular cultivation could detect a sneak attack and use a superb body method to instantly resolve it. Xiao Shao on the other hand doesn’t even need to use the body method. With a thought of his mind, his whole body could turn into a blood mist and there could be no way he could be shot.

Lin Shu re-assured himself and handed Xiao Shao the materials. The powder of incense charcoal was dispersed in dozens of jade containers, large and small. To check the chemical reactions, some of them took a long time, and the results would not come out until tomorrow.

Lin Shu tidied up his things and put them away.

He looked at Xiao Shao and thought of another thing: “Will Xiao Lingyang starve to death?”

Xiao Shao said no. He threw a bottle of Fasting Pills along with the Sound Stone. He could live for a long time.

Pitiful.

Poor Xiao Lingyang.

He was not even allowed to eat, so he had to rely on Fasting Pills.

He asked, “When will he be released?”

Xiao Shao: “When I am happy.”

After saying that, he raised his eyebrows and said, “Do you feel sorry for him?”

Lin Shu denied it and said, “I’m afraid it will affect your feelings.”

“Huh?” Xiao Shao pinched his chin and said, “You can speak some sweet words.”

Lin Shu’s face was expressionless.

This time, Xiao Shao asked, “Why did you think of sneaking into the hall?”

Lin Shu: “I was afraid that you’ll suddenly lose control.”

Xiao Shao scratched his nose: “You have found the Sound Stone and also found Xiao Lingyang. Baby, you have learned a lot.”

Lin Shu thought for a while, it seemed that he had indeed gained a lot of experience in the Jianghu.

He said, “He who comes near ink also turns black.”

Xiao Shao smiled and pinched his nose: “Have you still laid down your own little spell for the three secret manuals given to my mother, huh?”

Lin Shu took away his hand and said dully with a nasal sound: “After all, it’s what Qingming Demon Lord ordered. I think I should be more careful…”

“Yes.” Xiao Shao didn’t seem to be upset: “You won’t be cheated easily if you are alone in the future.”

Lin Shu: “Are you praising me?”

Xiao Shao: “I am praising you.”

Lin Shu was even a little embarrassed.

He looked through his divine sense and reported the situation to Xiao Shao: “The Villa Master has put the three secret manuals in one place. It’s very dark. My divine sense can’t find anything else.”

“Probably the underground palace of the villa.” Xiao Shao replied, “The Phoenix underground palace has ancient secrets and is the safest place in the world.”

Lin Shu: “That’s good.”

“Go to bed early.” Xiao Shao put him on the bed: “Let’s go back to Jubei Pass tomorrow.”

Lin Shu nodded.

Then he was buried in the quilt, only showing a pair of eyes, watching Xiao Shao sitting in front of the case, dealing with affairs, and communicating with others.

As the night darkened, a red candle was lit, reflecting Xiao Shao’s beautiful profile.

His black ink-like hair shimmered in the candlelight, making the whole person much softer.

Lin Shu had nothing to do, so he kept watching. In the end, Xiao Shao completely stuffed Lin Shu into the quilt, saying he was hindering him from doing things, and he was not allowed to show his eyes.

Lin Shu thought I was just taking a look. Where did it hinder you? His attitude became sullen.

After being completely buried in it for a while, Xiao Shao pushed the quilt away and said he was afraid Lin Shu would suffocate in it.

Lin Shu’s attitude was still very sullen. After being released, he looked at Xiao Shao more directly.

After being pressed and kissed by Xiao Shao for a while, and threatening not to let him sleep if he didn’t sleep now, he finally gave in, and his attitude was no longer sullen. He stopped staring at Xiao Shao’s face, but squirmed and went to bed spontaneously. In the innermost part of the bed, with his back to Xiao Shao, he fell asleep.

He hasn’t dreamed for a long time, but after falling asleep gradually, he actually fell into a chaotic dream.

He had a lot of dreams, but he couldn’t figure out any clues. He had some uneasy premonition, he was out of breath, he was struggling to wake up, and found himself being held by Xiao Shao from behind, which was a cherished and protective posture.

Perhaps because of his nightmare, his heartbeat was a little fast. He turned around and buried his head in Xiao Shao’s chest before gradually falling asleep again.

He slept a little more peacefully, but it was not a deep sleep. When the sun shone on the window lattice, he woke up.

As soon as he woke up, Xiao Shao also woke up.

After hugging for a while, he got up and washed. After everything was cleaned up, he saw those bottles and cans last night.

Based on the scents, it could be judged that there are agarwood, Platycladus orientalis, borneol, Cornus, jasmine and clove. They were not rare spices, but they have one thing in common, they have a very strong scent.

Once the scent was strong and the nose got desensitized to them, one couldn’t smell anything else.

The results of the chemical reaction in the bottles and cans showed that there were some mild immortal pills such as Amorphous Shrub, Black Frost Dew and Spring Bamboo Vine, which had the effect of calming the nerves.

There was no problem. It was indeed a good spice mix for calming the nerves.

The Emperor’s diet and medication had all been inspected by the Imperial Guards, as well as undergone the poison test — The Imperial Guards were directly taking orders from Ling Fengxiao, and were not loyal to anyone else. There must be no problem in this link.

It could be seen that the Emperor was indeed suddenly sick and was unconscious naturally.

However, Ling Fengxiao didn’t stop investigating it, but instead sent an order to the Imperial Guards to present his Majesty’s dietary records and prescriptions over the years.

After getting them, they checked them one by one.

There was really something wrong with this inspection.

Ling Fengxiao’s eyes stayed on the prescription.

The Emperor’s prescription contained a flavor of Rainbow White Feather Pill, which was a divine medicine as elixir of life, and was taken every day.

But in this pill, there was a flavor of Green Dragon Ginseng, which only grew in the islands of the South China Sea. It was extremely strong and it could not coexist with the Black Frost Dew in the spice. If it coexisted for a long time, it would become a chronic poison.

Ling Fengxiao summoned the Imperial Guards for inquiry. The spices in the Imperial palace had always been designated by the Empress. After they checked the source of the incense and confirmed that it was non-toxic, they did not ask anymore.

Lin Shu saw Ling Fengxiao silently contemplating for a long time.

At noon, the Empress gave an order to announce to the world that Her Royal Highness Fengyang would lead the Tiger Seal and set out for Northern Xia.

Ling Fengxiao was dressed in a flamboyant red dress and rode a white horse. When he left the city gate, everyone bade their well wishes to Her Royal Highness Fengyang.

Her Royal Highness Fengyang reined her horse and looked back, looking at the crowds of people in the city, and smiled as if heaven and man were coming to the world.

When they arrived at Jubei Pass, Ling Fengxiao went to reorganize the soldiers, and Lin Shu stayed at their residence.

Ever since Lin Shu accepted Qinglu, he had been running around with Ling Fengxiao, and didn’t teach his disciple well, and consciously didn’t fulfill the responsibility of being a teacher. These days, he watched Qinglu practice his sword.

This apprentice was good everywhere, just a little stupid.

Other disciples could practice swordsmanship three times. He has to practice it thirty times.

Fortunately, he has a pure temperament and didn’t get confused. As long as he persevered, he could always achieve something.

Qing Lu practiced over and over again. He had nothing to do and also had several training sessions to learn Endless Yearning.

As a result, Qinglu’s eyes brightened. Master, what a mysterious sword technique!

Lin Shu taught him the first two moves.

Then, the apprentice couldn’t understand it. His eyes straightened, Master, it is so hard to comprehend. The apprentice was stupid, so he went to practice the 108 basic sword techniques first.

Then Fruit came out and gave a cry, hugged Lin Shu, played with him for a while, then took the Folding Bamboo Sword and said to feed the Folding Bamboo with fruit.

These days, he has produced a lot of fruit. After feeding Folding Bamboo, the whole sword became so clear and transparent. Fruit was very satisfied. He said that with a few more fruits, or a hundred years, Folding Bamboo could become an adult.

Lin Shu stopped him, thinking about the result again.

One Fruit, one Ying Ying, and one apprentice. He felt that it was enough and he didn’t need more.

Fruit snorted and went to find Ying Ying to play.

As a result, Ying Ying concentrated on cultivation and didn’t play with him.

Fruit took off his white clothes and changed into a gorgeous red one, saying that you are all very boring, I will go to the little monk to play.

Lin Shu asked where the little monk was.

Fruit said that recently, an old monk and a little monk traveled to Jubei Pass. The little monk was gentle and beautiful. Listening to him was more fun than other bald donkeys.

Lin Shu asked: I thought you don’t like to play with men.

The Fruit rolled his eyes and said, monk, there is no turbid Qi in the man.

Lin Shu said to dress plainly when you go and see the monk.

With that, he felt like a worried old father.

The Fruit said that color was not different from the void and void was not different from the color. Monk Buddhism is very profound. Whether he wore red or white, it was the same.

After that, he jumped out like a red butterfly.

All right.

Listening to the monk’s sermon, I hope he will also realize the truth that color was not different from void and void was not different from color, and face his gender squarely.

The days went by like running water. Ten days later, when the whole army had finished its preparations, Ling Fengxiao wrote the War Challenge himself.

When the two countries were at war, if they wanted to save face, then they would send a messenger with the War Challenge in advance, stating details like: the Name of the Division, War time and the Battlefield. If they didn’t want to save face, the troops would go to enemy gates directly and express their meaning by shooting the War Challenge at the city gates.

As for the late-night raids, it belonged to the category of shameless. If it was recorded in the history books, future generations would laugh at the shameless people..

From this point of view, the War Challenge of Ling Fengxiao was conducted in an upright manner, and the morale of the gentleman’s war was also very high.

Her Royal Highness Fengyang was not an ordinary general, but a person who controlled the power of the whole dynasty. Those who controlled the power of the dynasty, they would directly control the Treasury.

He announced to the 500,000 elite soldiers, when they kill one enemy, he would reward 20 taels of silver, if they killed 10 enemies, he would reward 10 taels of gold, if they killed 20 enemies, they could return to their homeland with honor.

Those who died in the war, whose families were supported by the dynasty, would be happy to the end.

Inspired by this rule, the soldiers’ fighting spirit was unprecedented, and Ling Fengxiao’s prestige in the army rose to its apex. Speaking of Her Royal Highness Fengyang, there was no one who did not admire and praise her, and even the people in the border towns passed on word of mouth, and they all worshipped her as a god.

The two countries were at war but the messengers were not killed. Five days later, the envoys returned to Jubei Pass with Northern Xia’s letter for war. When Lin Shu saw the letter, it was exactly Xiao Xuan’s handwriting. Since this man was eager to be in confinement with Xiao Lingyang, they shouldn’t delay sending troops immediately.

It was agreed in the afternoon, June 20, to fight in Weichuan.
