Star Trace Gate

[Those who take advantage of the Way of Heaven will inevitably become pawns. ]

[The Lich King Wu was furious and wanted to lead his troops north, and invited King Huai to go with him. ]

[Prince Huai rises - marching north: If you accept the invitation of Emperor Wanwu and march north together, your exclusive Star Gate territory - Qingliang Prefecture will enter a "state of war" and there is a risk of being captured and completely destroyed at any time.]

[Warring State: Once you start your army and march north, the Misty Barrier will automatically open, and Qingliangfu will no longer be protected by the Heavenly Dao. Only after you conquer the entire target territory of Shangyu County and successfully dispel or seize the Great Qian Luck of this place, will the Misty Barrier re-evolve, extend, and protect Qingliangfu again.]

[Failure and destruction of the nation: If you fail to occupy the target territory, and fail to dispel or seize the luck of the Daqian Dynasty, the mist barrier will never be closed. If the Daqian Dynasty counterattacks and breaks into the heart of Qingliang Prefecture, wantonly slaughtering the people and occupying this place, the luck of the emperor will dissipate, and you will die, with no possibility of survival.]

[The personal exclusive mission of "Breaker". 】

[Task 1: Find out the true identities of the other five participants. Once you get the answers, use your consciousness to communicate with the Heavenly Dao.]

[Task 2: You must win as a game breaker and successfully capture the two "planners". Their life and death will be decided by you.]

[Task 3: You must successfully complete the territorial expansion required to advance to the third level amidst the political struggles on the frontier.]

[Special reminder: You can only fully activate the promotion after completing all the exclusive tasks of the Breaker and the tasks of conquering the territory.]

[Warm reminder: Be cautious in military affairs. If you are not careful, your country will be destroyed. I wish the emperor good luck and prosperity of martial arts. ]

After listening to the long-lost reminder from the Star Gate, Ren's first feeling was that the Heavenly Dao was so petty, and kept hinting that someone was using the Heavenly Dao rules to lay out a conspiracy, so He wanted to retaliate, and He wanted to constantly evolve the tasks to make the participants completely opposed and fight to the death.

However, the war mechanism provided by this star gate sounds very special.

He felt a little puzzled and muttered to himself, "Does this war rule only apply to my Qingliang Mansion, or does it apply to all wars between Daqian and Nanjiang? If so, it feels like the traces of Heaven's intervention are too obvious. I'll ask Fenglin about this later, he must know."

The most urgent task now is to recruit people.

Once the mist barrier is opened, it means that the novice village is unprotected. Once the attack on Shangyu fails, the country will definitely be destroyed, because once the reinforcements from Daqian arrive, with the strength of Southern Xinjiang and the cross-border warfare, it will be difficult to stop the counterattack.

This battle has to be fought quickly and by surprise, and the job must be done before Daqian can react. This is why Emperor Wanwu repeatedly emphasized that the army only has three days to prepare and must be dispatched after three days.

Therefore, even if Emperor Wanwu did not ask Ren Ye to give his all now, he would still give his all. After all, he had staked his entire life on this bet and could not afford to lose.

Is it okay to not accept this mission?

Of course, he could just reject Emperor Wanwu directly, but then... he wouldn't be able to expand his territory, and he wouldn't be able to enter the third level at all.

This is a dead end, a dead end that requires the use of military force.

Damn it, Emperor Wanwu, who has a huge family and wealth, has such courage, so what am I lacking?

Just do it!

Han Chan, Guan Feng, you two little BYs better get ready and wait. I’m going to use all my connections and family assets in this battle!

If I don’t push you to the three high grounds and smash the crystal with one stick, I will never sleep with my beloved concubine.

Of course, if she wants to take the initiative to have sex, that’s another story…

……

The meeting dispersed.

The first thing the Third Prince said after leaving the Taiji Hall was: "Brother Prince Huai, I am going to stab you in the ass with a stick."

Ren also glanced at him and said calmly: "If I use my strength, I will crush you with my stick, and you will bounce back with a fart, and your mouth will be filled with feces and sawdust!"

"...I'm going to fight you. You're more deceiving than my cousin." The third prince was so angry that he rolled up his official sleeves and was ready to take action.

King Huai didn't tolerate him and immediately showed a desperate attitude, gritting his teeth and said, "Do you really think I'm afraid of you?"

Just as the two were about to fight, the Prime Minister Yao Qingshan stepped down from the stage and looked at them in surprise. Then he sent a message to Chong Ren calmly: "Little Prince Huai, if you dare to beat him up, I will give you a month's salary."

He was scolded by the third prince in the court, and was filled with hatred, so he wanted to spend money to vent his anger.

Ren was also stunned for a moment: "Okay, okay, Lord."

"Heh." Yao Qingshan glanced at the third prince and left with steady steps.

After he left, the third brother calmed down and said viciously, "The ten carts of siege weapons are definitely gone. Just wait, I won't approve a single penny of supplies for you."

Ren Ye looked at him and suddenly asked, "Do you know why I insisted that the Emperor choose you to go to the battlefield?"

The Third Prince was stunned when he heard this, and his expression was broken again: "You bastard...!"

"Do you think I'm stupid?! If you don't go, you can approve as much baggage as you want, and I'll owe you a favor." Ren Ye tilted his neck and looked at him: "But if I drag you to go, and you don't approve it and make things difficult for me, it's like cutting off an arm and harming yourself. Think about it, if we can't win this war, you will die in Daqian."

"Zhu Zigui, Zhu Zigui, I have never seen such a shameless person like you."

"Same here." Ren Ye said, turning around and leaving: "My prince still has to see the emperor, and I will also suggest to the emperor that you be the vanguard general. You are good at talking, so I guess your stick fighting skills are also the best in the world."

The third prince stood there, his face pale with anger. He gritted his teeth and calmed down for a long time before he took a step forward to chase after him.

"Brother Huai Wang, wait for me. The indignation I felt in the palace just now has not subsided. I spoke a little rashly. Please don't take it seriously."

"Where are my ten carts of baggage?"

"Who said it was ten cars? It was clearly twenty cars."

"Ha." Ren Ye sneered, "If you have something to say, then fart it will come out."

"Big brother, second brother, let's go out of the Styx." The third prince whispered, "How about I lead the troops and go out of Qingliang Mansion with you?"

"Okay." Ren agreed very readily, thinking to himself that I just happened to be short of a proton, and if anything unpleasant happened later, I would blame you.

Soon, the two of them worked together again and left the Tai Chi Hall in a very cool manner.

……

After the court meeting, Ren didn't dare to visit the flowers and sights in Kyoto, and hurried to Lingnan as fast as he could.

There was no conversation along the way. Ren Ye only said that after returning to Lingnan, he met Li Yan as soon as possible.

The two sat in a quiet room and had a close conversation.

"Are you sure you want to use troops?!" Li Yan asked.

"That's right." Ren nodded slightly: "I need help. And it needs to be fourth-grade, able to fight and run, the more the better."

Li Yan fell silent.

Ren Ye didn't dare to make jokes or talk nonsense at this time. He just looked serious and said sincerely: "Honestly, the risk of attacking Shangyu County this time is very high. Moreover, I don't know what benefits I can bring to the brothers and elders who help me. The only thing I can promise is that after taking Shangyu and other counties and towns, I can take down two cities and let the people you bring plunder at will. As long as they don't touch the people's things, the government can take as much as they want, as long as they can take it away."

"Ugh."

Li Yan sighed: "I want to say, what can I do to help?"

Ren Ye's face showed no surprise at all. He just said softly, "Brother Yan, I am shameless for bringing this up. Even if you can't help me, I still owe you what I owe you. As long as I survive, I will definitely pay you back in the future, including... I still remember the fact that you took Qingning with you. That's it. I will go back to Limen, Qingliang Mansion, and talk to the first and second masters. You guys pack up, we will leave right away."

After saying that, he stood up and left.

"Ren Ye." Li Yan shouted.

"Hmm?" Ren Ye turned his head.

"The purpose of the Fraud Chamber of Commerce is - no gain, no early rise. I have people, you can use them, but I won't take any benefits." Li Yan said straightforwardly: "If we can conquer Shangyu County, if the Fraud Chamber of Commerce proposes to operate some businesses here and expand some power, what do you think, what is the cost-effectiveness for you?"

Ren Ye's eyes lit up: "Can we talk?!"

"Those who follow me can do so for free. Those who are called here must be seeking profit. After all, this is a matter of life and death." Li Yan responded clearly.

"If I can agree, how many people can I give it to?" Ren Ye asked.

"The high-level Star Gate I'm in has had a lot of big events recently." Li Yan thought for a moment and said, "Fifty, no problem."

"Fuck, do you have this power?" Ren was also shocked.

Li Yan patted his shoulder upon hearing this and said pretentiously, "After 30 years of development, standing at the highest point of Qingliang Mansion, you should be able to see where the door of the Fraud Chamber of Commerce opens."

"Haha." Ren also smiled: "This is a very stiff pretense, but I like it. Let's make it a deal. As long as it doesn't involve the fundamental issues of Qingliang Prefecture, I can agree to it. I can even recommend the Fraud Chamber of Commerce to do business in Southern Xinjiang, and it can get support from the government."

"Okay, time is tight and the task is heavy. I will leave soon and return to the higher level." Li Yan nodded.

"Okay, that's settled."

Ren also responded, and immediately asked Li Yan: "Did Monk Peng vomit?"

"He is cursed and cannot be questioned or soul-searched." Li Yan replied: "We can only torture him and make him confess."

"Are you sure?"

"I can dig him to death!" Li Yan replied calmly.

"I believe it. Go ahead and do it." Ren also nodded: "I will take my people back to Qingliang Mansion first. It's too late."

"If my people come, where will they land?" Li Yan asked.

"Let them take over the mission in Southern Xinjiang." Ren also reminded.

"it is good."

……

That night.

Ren Ye returned to Qingliang Mansion as quickly as possible with his beloved concubine, Fenglin, Xu Bangzi, as well as Lao Liu, Erleng and others who had just arrived.

After returning home, he didn't even have time to say good night to Brother Huang before leaving immediately.

At night, it was past midnight.

In Suzaku City, inside the attic of the academy.

Zhao Baicheng looked at the missing person with a strange expression: "...Hey, isn't this the Emperor? Long time no see."

"Disciple Ren Ye pays his respects to Second Master." After packing his luggage, Ren Ye immediately rushed over and took the initiative to pour a glass of wine for Zhao Baicheng.

"Okay, stop talking nonsense. Tell me, who is going to pay for this?"

“It’s not about paying this time.”

"what is that?"

"Disciples want to attack Daqian!"

"puff!"

Zhao Baicheng spat out a mouthful of wine on the ground, and said blankly, "You came here after drinking too?"
