After hearing the news, Ximen Qingyan, who was already extremely depressed, instantly showed hope again in her eyes.
"Then Ye Qing was seriously injured... This is a good opportunity for us!"
"That's right!"
Xia Long said happily, "Look at all the nine states in the world. The ancestor is the number one person below the Four Emperors."
"Now that Ye Qing is seriously injured, it is the ancestor who should take over his position regardless of his strength or prestige!"
< br>
"In this way, our Linglong Holy Land will be able to have one of the Four Emperors sit in charge and dominate Zhongzhou, which is just around the corner!"
"Oh, what I want now is not just the position of the Four Emperors."
Ximen Qingyan squinted his eyes and said in a deep voice, "I have now mastered the Immortal Dark Sea and can compete with the immortal weapons."
"Except for Ye Qing, no matter whether it is Mo Kuangzi , Dongfang Liren, or the old monk, I am not afraid."
"As long as Ye Qing dies, then I will be the leader of the four emperors, the best in the world."
"Looking at the whole world, no one can be my enemy!"
"Ancestor, Holy Ming!"
Xia He hurriedly clasped his fists to echo, Xia Long tentatively said, "Ancestor is planning to go Did the Chu Dynasty kill Ye Qing just to be sure?"
"No, wait a minute."
Ximen Qingyan shook her head and said with a smile, "That's Ye Qing's nature. He is cunning, and it does not rule out that he has set a trap to deliberately lure us into action, and then use this as an excuse to invade our Linglong Holy Land.”
"One year!"
"Let's stay calm and observe for a year."
"After one year, if Ye Qing still hasn't moved, it means he was seriously injured. Or he is really dead."
"I will go to the Chu Dynasty personally and take his life!"
Xia He and Xia Long nodded in agreement.
How could it be so easy to clear an ancient restricted area?
In their opinion, Ye Qing was probably seriously injured, and it was the kind that hurt his bones.
For a person of Ye Qing's level, he would never get hurt easily.
But if you are injured, it will not be easy to recover.
It may take thousands of years for him to regain his former strength.
The ancestor chose to lie dormant and endure for a year, which was extremely wise.
"Xia Long, Xia He, during this year, you must send more manpower to keep an eye on the Chu Dynasty day and night!"
"If you find out any information about Ye Qing , then come back and report to me immediately."
Ximen Qingyan said with a ferocious smile, "Ye Qing, you defeated me in front of everyone and stepped on my head to become the fourth emperor."
"I will step on your corpse and take back what I lost!"
...
Da Chu Dynasty, inside the palace.
Chu Yao sat in front of the bronze mirror, and Hong Yu carefully combed her hair.
Looking at her slightly haggard face in the bronze mirror, Chu Yao couldn't help but sigh slightly.
There were rumors going around, and of course she had heard about them.
Chu Yao knew very well that Ye Qing really just had some insights in the forbidden area and immediately retreated after returning.
It’s not like what the outside world spreads, like being crippled, dead, or seriously injured.
However, no matter how Chu Yao explains it, others will only think that she is trying to hide it.
She had no choice but to give up the idea of explaining herself, and tried her best to maintain the orderly operation of ASEAN, so that her husband would not have peace even in seclusion.
At this time, Leng Rushuang walked in from the outside and said, "Your Majesty, four ASEAN monarchs came to the lobby and said that they learned that Emperor Ye had returned from the forbidden land and came here to visit."
< br>
Chu Yao sighed, with a look of helplessness on her face, "Here we go again."
In the past few days, there have been countless ASEAN members from the Chu Dynasty. These people were nominally here to visit Ye Qing.
But Chu Yao knew very well that they were just here to gather information and wanted to see if Ye Qing was really seriously injured as rumored, and if he was even still alive.
“Okay, I’ll go see you right away.”
After Chu Yao finished dressing up, she put on the royal robe and crown, and came to the front hall in full dress.
The four monarchs below immediately knelt down on one knee and said loudly, "I have seen the deputy leader!"
"Four, please get up."
Chu Yao He nodded and said with a slight smile, "My husband has just come back on the third day, and you have come all the way to visit me. It is so affectionate."
"On behalf of my husband, I would like to thank you for your kindness. .”
After hearing this, the four kings looked at each other with a trace of suspicion in their eyes.
Dayan King Luo Chuang clasped his fists and said, "Deputy leader, I have come thousands of miles away, and I just want to see Emperor Ye with my own eyes."
"Can you ask the deputy leader to send a message to ask Emperor Ye to come out? Let’s meet.”
“As long as we see that Emperor Ye is safe, we can rest assured.”
Chu Yao apologized, “The territories of the four of you are thousands of miles away from our great Chu Dynasty. The four of you have traveled thousands of miles to visit us. Logically speaking, my husband should indeed come forward in person.”
"But two days ago, the day after my husband returned, he began to retreat to enlightenment and did not allow anyone to disturb him."
"After my husband comes out of seclusion, he will naturally come to your door to thank you all."
Seeing Chu Yao's refusal, the four of them suddenly became more suspicious.
They exchanged glances with each other, not knowing how to ask further questions.
Chu Yao stood up and said seriously, "Four of you, my husband specifically explained before retreating that although he is in retreat, our great cause of conquering demons cannot be interrupted."
"Now the troops from the north and the south have been assembled, and the demon-killing army is about to go out. I would like to ask the four of you to return to your country as soon as possible and stay in charge, so as not to miss our important event."
Seeing that Chu Yao issued an order to expel guests, The four of them had no choice but to clasp their fists and say, "We will obey your orders."
When they left the Chu Dynasty, they stopped pretending and the suspicion in their hearts was transferred to their faces.
"If Huang Huang really returned safely, why did she insist on not letting us meet?"
"How can anyone immediately retreat into seclusion just after they have triumphed?"
"Could it be that...as the rumors say, Emperor Ye was seriously injured and his cultivation was completely ruined."
"Even...dead?"
...
< br>At the same time.
The border of Xizhou Wanyin Dynasty.
There is also a Saint's Restriction erected here, sealing the ancient restricted area - the Valley of the Buried Gods.
At this moment, the commanding heights of the God Burial Valley are on top of the God Burial Mountain.
Four powerful men who have reached the immortal level gathered here, exuding a terrifying aura.
Standing to the east are two burly men.
They are all three feet tall, with three heads and six arms, copper skin and iron bones, and skin as dark as coke.
The two of them are one of the three ancient blood descendants, the strongest members of the God Burial Clan.
The clan leader Hun Tian Mie, and his fierce general Kuang Mang.
Standing to the west are two charming, delicate and charming women.
The skin is as white as snow, the body is extremely hot, and it is as captivating as a succubus.
These two women are one of the three ancient blood descendants, the strongest sisters of the Samsara clan.
The elder sister is named Tianqing and the younger sister is named Shenmei. (End of this chapter)
