Defying the Martial Way to Burn the Heavens

These two middle-aged men wearing white cloaks have very special identities. One is Zheng Lu, the high priest of the Fire Priest Hall, and the other is Zhu Tao, the water priest.

Not to mention the two of them being famous in the Yelin Empire, even in other empires, they are definitely famous super figures. It's hard to imagine that two such big men were so distressed by such a late winter hunt.

In the past few days, no good news has come back from the hunting team. The two of them were already waiting impatiently. However, due to some ancient agreements, they could not take action directly, so they could only stay in Shinkari County and worry.

The reason why they did not take action directly was because of the agreement reached between the Yelin Empire and the Tianping Mountains a long time ago. Over the years, the Ye Lin Empire has actually been quietly violating the original agreement. Even the presence of Zheng Lu and Zhu Tao in the Xingu County City is already a violation of the agreement.

The agreement made back then was that monsters that had reached the transformation stage in the Tianping Mountains were not allowed to attack humans outside the scope of the Tianping Mountains. At the same time, Ye Lin Empire guarantees that it will not send strong people who have reached the God Refining Stage to enter the Tianping Mountains area, and will not allow strong people in the God Refining Stage to hunt monsters within this range.

In fact, over the years, the Tianping Mountains have declined greatly, so the Yelin Empire dared to continuously send teams to hunt here, covertly and openly, and even built cities to facilitate the hunting of monsters.

These actions were actually a serious violation of the original agreement, but Ye Lin did not hunt aggressively after all. However, for the Ye Lin Empire, after all, it still had to take into account the other two empires and the elixir mountain range. Therefore, they chose to be secretive and try their best to keep the last fig leaf, that is, strong men in the God Refining Stage like Zheng Lu and Zhu Tao would not directly attack the Monster Mountain Range.

Nowadays, hunting in late summer and late winter is not only a huge way to make profits for the Ye Lin Empire, but it is also a way for high-level officials to compete with each other.

Fortunately, it was hosted by another high priest before, but now it's just a bit ugly. If the last result was hosted by the Soul Sacrifice Hall, then these two people may not be able to sit still for a long time.

At this moment, some subordinates suddenly arrived. They thought that good news finally came, but who knew that news came from the sacrificial hall.

The two people's bodies leaned forward slightly, as if they were about to rush out. When they heard the source of the news, they both curled their lips, and then lazily leaned back on the chairs again.

The young warrior who sent the message couldn't help but laugh secretly. His two high priests had been acting like this for days. As long as it is news related to the hunting team, I will be very interested in it, and I will not bother to listen to anything else.

However, the young man in front of him did not dare to neglect the news in his hand, because several key names were mentioned in the news. He must take such a summons absolutely seriously, even if it is just a bunch of insignificant nonsense.

But before the young man could speak, Zheng Lu couldn't help but waved his hand and said, "You don't need to pay attention to the inquiries from the Imperial Capital. As for the cats, dogs and two monsters that have been captured now, if you have anything to report, I will tell you." Let Third Sister laugh."

Zheng Lu, who has a fire attribute, is also the master of the Fire Priest Hall. He has a fiery temperament and acts in a fiery manner. He sent the young man away without asking a single question.

On the other hand, Zhu Tao, who was on the side, saw that the young man had a strange look on his face and stood hesitantly at the door, refusing to leave, so he asked: "What is the news? There should be no major events to be arranged in the Sacrifice Hall recently."

The young man secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He knew the temper of High Priest Zheng Lu. When he got the opportunity to speak, he immediately replied: "Because the Sacrifice Hall received a distress message. This distress letter was sent from Licheng in the east. The message I asked the chief priest to come forward in person, but the chief priest is not in the imperial capital now, so I forwarded this letter for help, hoping that the two adults would go to Licheng to have a look."

"What!"

Zheng Lu was already wondering if there was something wrong with his ears. Xiao Licheng dared to speak so brazenly that he asked the officiant to take action himself. Not to mention that he had never heard of such a thing in the hundreds of years he had been a high priest, even in Ye Lin's history.

Zhu Tao on the other side was not as angry as Zheng Lu, although his heart was equally full of confusion. But even if the city lord of Licheng doesn't understand the rules, it's impossible for those in the sacrificial hall to not understand the rules as well, so they sent this letter for help to Xinshou City.

So, before Zheng Lu's anger broke out, Zhu Tao continued to ask: "Which part of the sacrificial hall did the news come from? Is it the main hall of the sacrificial hall?"

In fact, the young man was not a fool. He was also full of doubts about the summons in his hands, but after all, the matter was so important that he did not dare to neglect it in the slightest. Now when I heard the question from the high priest Zhu Tao, he immediately replied: "No, it was a message from a priest in the outer hall of the sacrificial hall and the messenger hall."

"Humph, it's just a joke! I think this sacrificial hall should be reorganized. If the chief priest hears about this kind of thing, he will definitely scold us all again."

Slapping his palm heavily on the armrest, Zheng Lu could no longer suppress his anger. The Communication Hall outside the Sacrifice Hall was mainly responsible for the communication in various small towns.

Now a priest actually transferred the news about Xiaolicheng here, and even handed it over to his two high priests. This is like a family gate guard who directly arranges for the head of the family to do things. It sounds ridiculous to outsiders, but as the head of the family, you will only feel that your own face is seriously hurt.

After all, Zhu Tao remained calm. Before Zheng Lu could say anything more unpleasant, he immediately asked: "Although this news came from the priest, he should not have this authority. Who in the priest hall asked him Send the message."

The young man actually wanted to say what he had been saying, but was interrupted by Zheng Lu. At this time, he continued what he had said before: "It is said that this news came from the high priest Mo Wen, who requested to report it directly to the high priest Weng Ben, and finally Weng Ben transferred to us.”

Hearing this situation, which also involved Weng Ben and Mo Wen, Zheng Lu and Zhu Tao looked at each other and fell silent. The faces of the two people at this time did not look good.

If Xing Kaixuan was personally in charge of the communication, he would never let the priest use the communication formation in the communication hall to communicate. Instead, he would use the communication formation in the main hall. At the same time, he would definitely hide the fact that Mo Wen was involved in the Soul Sacrifice Hall and only say that it was Weng Ben's intention.

After the news came, Zheng Lu and Zhu Tao were very dissatisfied at first. Now that they heard that Mo Wen was involved, they had another suspicion at the same time.

On weekdays in the Imperial Capital, the Soul Sacrifice Hall would always overwhelm the Sacrifice Hall. Now it seems that the processing of this message is actually Mo Wen's request. Even a very simple thing will make Zheng Lu and Zhu Thao felt very unhappy.

Simply looking at the handling of this matter, it was Fujikata, who now goes by the pseudonym "Fang Teng", who saw the whole thing most thoroughly.

He not only judged the consequences of the priest reporting the news to the high priest Weng Ben, but also guessed that the junior priest would be responsible for reporting the news to Shinkari County afterwards. Especially the little priest did not dare to go to the main hall of the sacrificial hall to summon the message. He must have returned to the messenger hall.

And this little priest, who was able to be related to so many big shots at the same time, would definitely mention all of these during the interrogation process. When it came to this matter, he had no right and did not dare to hide anything. Another reason is that he wants to show off in front of his companions.

The development of things now is almost within Fang Teng's expectation, so according to his judgment, Zheng Lu and Zhu Tao will not pay attention to this matter, and even the more they pay attention to it, the more they will come forward in person. This is not a problem with their judgment, but because of their stance. If the two of them go to Licheng obediently this time, it will be equivalent to completely bowing to the Soul Sacrifice Hall.

Especially the importance the two of them attached to this matter had nothing to do with the matter itself.

After a period of silence, Zhu Tao said: "Brother, since the news came from Weng Ben and Mo Wen, it is definitely impossible to ignore it in Licheng."

At this time, Zheng Lu was no longer as irritable as before. He nodded and said calmly: "We must take care of it, but you and I can't go."

"That's exactly what I thought." Zhu Tao immediately agreed.

Looking at the young man outside the door, Zheng Lu flashed his eyes and said: "In that case, let's send a group of manpower from Benxiao Pavilion. The hunting situation in late winter is not good now, and we still need to keep some manpower, so let's send some manpower from Benxiao Pavilion. We brought one-fifth of the warriors from Benxiao Pavilion."

This was consistent with Zhu Tao's idea, but after thinking about it, he tentatively said: "Is one-fifth too little? Since they took the initiative to ask for help, I believe there must be a lot of trouble over there, so why not Add more manpower?”

Shaking his head slowly, Zheng Lu said: "One-fifth is already a lot. If the hunting team still has no harvest, by that time, people will need to be sent deep into the inner areas of the Tianping Mountains. At that time, they will need to use The power of Benxiao Pavilion.”

After weighing it for a while, Zhu Tao nodded and said: "It seems that this is the only way. After all, hunting in late winter is also very important to the current empire, and the overall situation cannot be ruined because of some trivial matters."

The two high priests did not choose to take action, and did not even plan to send more powerful men. In their opinion, there might be something going on in Licheng, but the timing was too coincidental, and Mo Wen had to intervene in this matter that should not be the concern of the Soul Sacrifice Palace.

This gave the two high priests Zheng Lu and Zhu Tao a hint of conspiracy. They all felt that Mo Wen deliberately wanted the late-winter hunting hosted by the two of them to turn into a big joke. This was a means for the Soul Sacrifice Palace to attack the Sacrifice Palace.

The orders issued by the two high priests Zheng Lu and Zhu Tao were quickly passed down without any hesitation. A team of nearly two hundred warriors immediately set off for Licheng upon receiving the order.

Boka, who was looking forward to it at this time, never thought that his letter for help would actually be the fuse that triggered an internal battle in the Yelin Empire.
