The Alchemist God

Text Chapter 400: Old Acquaintance

The road was bumpy, and after nearly half a day, the convoy finally arrived at the provincial capital of Xunbai Province, Sunset City. From a distance, this resplendent and resplendent city was extraordinarily majestic under the arch of the steel parapet. The banners are connected together, and the company of defenders on the steel parapet, as well as ballistas, stone cannons, catapults and other equipment can be faintly seen.

The wheels of the carriage were still creaking and squeaking, shaking the body of the traveler on the carriage. Lin Muyu leaned back against the inside of the wooden carriage, closed his eyes, and his whole body was full of vindictiveness. He didn't know what was waiting for him, but it certainly wasn't. Good thing, he could even feel that Lu Zhan, who was cultivated in the Holy Heaven Realm in front of him, had bad intentions for him, probably because he killed Bu Hai, who was also a disciple of Luo Lan.

Commander Yu, Sunset City will be here soon. Ding Xi smiled slightly.

Yeah. Lin Muyu remained silent.

What is Commander Yu thinking? Ding Xi asked.

I'm thinking... Lin Muyu pondered, and said, I was thinking that if I had decided to surrender, hand over the military power, and disarm all the Long Dan Battalion, would Marshal Ding Xi order my five thousand Long Dan Battalion to be killed? brother.

Hahaha……

Ding Xi couldn't help laughing, a strange look flashed across his face, and said: What did Commander Yu say, I, Ding Xi, are not Long Qianlin, and Commander Yu, you are not Feng Jixing, are you?

Oh, yes. Lin Muyu smiled slightly and did not speak again.

...

Not long after, the convoy arrived under the steel parapet, and the heavy iron gate under the parapet opened slowly, and a line of people came to greet them, and there was a man standing on the chariot under the canopy, with a bloated body and an old age, it was the setting sun The owner of the city, Xiyanghou Manning, is the father of the legendary seven commanders of the empire, Manfang. Sadly, Manfang suffered a disastrous defeat from the mighty army in Winter Frost City, and then probably died at the hands of the demons.

The convoy stopped slowly, Man Ning got out of the car, clasped his fists and said, Veteran Man Ning, see Commander Yu.

Lin Muyu naturally knew about Man Ning, so she jumped out of the car, clasped her fists and said, Lin Muyu sees the Lord.

Man Ning's fat face trembled when he smiled: Commander Yu is too polite. Man Ning was overjoyed when he heard that Commander Yu was willing to return to Shunyi and the country. It is also a blessing to the world that the empire has been cut in two, and the Yihe Kingdom has such a famous general as Yu to serve, and he will definitely be able to exorcise the demons, destroy the empire, and unify the country.

Lin Muyu took a deep breath, and said decisively: I think Junhou must have misunderstood, I am the righteous son of the emperor, and the elder brother of the empress, so even if I return to Yihe Kingdom, I will never do it for righteousness. He country contributes, let alone lead Yihe country's troops to attack the empire.

Haha... Man Ning laughed in disbelief: It doesn't matter, as long as Commander Yu is willing to return to Shunyi and the country, this is a great thing in itself, let's go, the veteran has already set up a banquet in the Sunset Hall , everyone is waiting to have this celebration banquet for Commander Yu.

yes.

Lin Muyu gave an imperial military salute unconsciously, but Ding Xi, Man Ning, Lu Zhan and others were particularly dazzling in their eyes, just like a kind of irony.

The convoy continued to move slowly, but there were more and more guards around. Thousands of cavalry from Sunset City guarded the surroundings, escorting Lin Muyu and others over the steel parapet, and there was a super strong man beside Man Ning, about 40 Under the age-old appearance, Lin Muyu could sense the whirling light in this person's body under the spirit pulse technique. This is a strong man from the first heaven in the sanctuary, acting as Man Ning's bodyguard. It seems that Qin Yi is indeed He is very dependent on this Xiyanghou.

In fact, although Xunbai Province only accounts for 25% of the land area of ​​the four major provinces in the south of the Lingnan Province, it has a flat plain and thousands of hectares of fertile land, and the food produced accounts for more than 60% of Yihe Kingdom. It also has a rich population and strong soldiers. It is because of the joining of Xunbai Province that Yihe Kingdom can rise so fast.

Sitting in the carriage, Lin Muyu remained silent. What made him more gratified was that Man Ning did not order his weapons to be dismantled. What worried him was that he was facing more and more powerful enemies. Ding Xi didn't say anything. Zhan is a strong man in the third heaven of the sanctuary, plus the first heaven of the sanctuary with Man Ning, although Lin Muyu is arrogant, she also knows in her heart that she is definitely not an opponent.

Unconsciously heaved a sigh of relief, he continued to sit quietly in the carriage while watching the bustling traffic and prosperity in Sunset City.

Lanyan City was more prosperous than here before it was massacred. Although it is the same now, the massacre always seems to be a lingering shadow in the hearts of the people, and this difference can be seen from the faces of the people.

Ding Xi said: After the dinner, Commander Yu will just live in my mansion. You can move into the mansion after the order from the Commander-in-Chief of Lingbei Province comes down.

Thank you General Ding Xi.

Lin Muyu nodded, but said again: I don't serve the Yihe Kingdom, why does Xiyang Hou treat me so kindly?

This...

Ding Xi rubbed his nose and looked around. Lu Zhan had already gotten out of the carriage and rode his horse, so he lowered his voice and said, Three years ago, the Yihe Kingdom seized most of the empire's land in a row, but His own vitality was also seriously injured, until Qihai City and Muyu City sent troops to defeat the main force of the Yihe Kingdom in one fell swoop. So far, the empire's military strength is no longer inferior to the Yihe Kingdom, and it has the momentum to rise again, so at this time... The Kingdom of Yihe needs an important figure in the empire to swear allegiance, otherwise... you think, if you caused the death of the young commander of Man Fang in Winter Frost City, will the prince let you go.

That's it... Lin Muyu smiled wryly, I'm just a chess piece to control people's hearts.

Yes, Dadu Tong and Xiyanghou need you only because you are the brother-in-law of the empress of the empire. Your dedication to Yihe Kingdom can prove that Yihe Kingdom is deeply popular. I remember Xiyanghou once said a word, as long as you Lin Muyu surrenders to Yihe He Guo is better than a hundred thousand troops.

I see.

Lin Muyu leaned against the wooden boards of the carriage, feeling slumped.

Ding Xi smiled: But Commander Yu, don't be too sad. You have already stated that you will not attack the empire for the Yihe Kingdom. Qin Yi Dadu will never break his promise, but the Yihe Kingdom may use you to fight demons. family.

Fighting demons.

That's right, the Long Dan Battalion led by Yu has won consecutive battles in the Qinling Mountains, killing the Demon Armored Demon Legion. The news has spread all over the world, don't you know?

No... Lin Muyu shook his head slowly, and said, I've been tired of fighting these days, so I don't have time to learn about this.

As he spoke, he glanced at Ding Xi and said with a smile, General Ding Xi, don't you get tired of war?

This... Ding Xi lowered his eyes and smiled: Who would want to live the life of licking blood from the knife? , so I can't rest yet. In fact, I, Ding Xi, hope that the world will be unified as soon as possible, whether it is the Yihe Kingdom or the Empire. Yu'er, marry a daughter-in-law, give birth to three or five children, live in clouds and wild cranes, and be at ease.

Lin Muyu couldn't help laughing: I never thought that General Ding Xi would be so worthless.

Ding Xi was not angry, rubbed his nose and said, In a hundred years of life, there are so many things to worry about. Ding Xi is not as persistent as Commander Yu. I am actually a very selfish person, and I will never be as persistent as Commander Yu. For a word, a love is desperate.

Lin Muyu was surprised, and Ding Xi seemed to have something to say.

And Ding Xi just smiled faintly, but his eyes seemed to be able to see through everything. This look was exactly the same as the look in the turmoil outside Lanyan City that deliberately spared Qin Yin's life.

Thank you General Ding Xi. Lin Muyu said in a voice like a gnat.

You're welcome.

Ding Xi clasped his fists and smiled, and said: Hearing that Commander Yu was not killed, many generals of Yihe Kingdom were filled with righteous indignation, and even alarmed Immortal Luo Lan. Only I, Ding Xi, were glad that Commander Yu was not dead.

Why.

Because the world is in complete turmoil, and the demon clan descended from the sky from Tongtian Province, and it is unstoppable. It would be a pity if a hero like Commander Yu died.

Ha, the marshal praised you...

As soon as Lin Muyu cupped his hands, he stopped talking, his body swayed gently with the carriage, and his eyes fell on the scenery outside the window. The citizens of Sunset City gathered on both sides of the road and looked at this place. Many people It seems that he has never seen the sunset Hou Manning before, pointing and respectful, but no one recognizes Lin Muyu on the carriage. After all, in the eyes of the people, the status of a monarch is far higher than that of an army commander. It seemed too far away to them.

...

Until the night fell, the convoy finally entered a majestic palace, the Sunset Palace, a private palace built by Man Ning for nearly ten years, which can be described as extravagant. The moment Lin Muyu stepped off the carriage, It is found that even the steps of the outer hall of the Sunset Hall are gilded, and the luxury inside is even more conceivable.

Xiyang Hou Manning stepped forward, raised his hand to hold Lin Muyu's wrist, and said with a smile: Commander Yu, please go in with the veteran, the celebration banquet has been set up, and all the senior generals and officials stationed in Xiyang City have participated, and there are even Some old acquaintances of Commander Yu.

Old acquaintance. Lin Muyu was taken aback: Who is it?

Shen Yang, a member of the Qin Family's Tianchong Legion, you can recognize him.

know……

He had surrendered to the Yihe Kingdom during the Lanyan City Rebellion. In addition, more than 30 high-ranking generals from the empire also surrendered to the Yihe Kingdom. Many of their names are still on your Zhenguo Monument. It's ridiculous.

Man Ning's face made no secret of his disgust towards the Great Qin Empire.
