Chapter 411 Visitors
In the imperial study, not long after Qin Feng and Eunuch Li left, four more people came.
They were all dressed in luxurious clothes, with extraordinary momentum, and every move showed majesty.
And these four people were the four princes of Daqian guarding the four regions.
When Emperor Ming saw the four people, he smiled and said, "Last night, the scoundrels disturbed my elegance. I still have a lot to talk to you about."
The four princes saluted respectfully, and then reported the situation of the four regions this year truthfully.
The Ashura tribe in the East Region is extremely powerful, shocking many demons and ghosts, and since Deng Mo won the bet with Ashura, the situation in the East Region can be said to be the most stable among the four regions.
The White Tiger Demon King in the West Region is the only one in power and has occupied many dragon veins, but she has not overstepped the boundaries of the human race, but will occasionally seek the West Region Siming to compete.
The Rakshasa tribe in the northern region has been invading for many years, and the war has never stopped. This is already commonplace. The northern region has long been accustomed to fighting with them, so the problem is not too big.
The biggest worry is still in the southern region.
The person in charge of guarding the southern region is Prince Luo, a serious and solemn middle-aged man.
He said: "The yin and yang in the southern region are out of balance, and demons and ghosts are rioting frequently. The Demon Slayer Division and the soldiers are exhausted to deal with it. Even if there is Huarong Road connecting the major dragon veins to suppress the rampant yin energy, the situation has not improved.
The most important thing is that King Garuda has awakened."
The Emperor Ming and the other three princes all looked depressed when they heard this.
The Garuda tribe feeds on dragons. Even if their strength is not as good as that of the Asura tribe, it is not far behind. The key is that the Garuda tribe is tyrannical and does not pay as much attention to rules as the Asura tribe.
In the battle of Zhenling Pass that year, if it were not for the support of the dragon tribe, even 100,000 soldiers plus the high-level combat power of the Demon Slayer Division might not be able to repel it.
Now that King Garuda has awakened, they are bound to come back.
The Northern Territory Prince said: "But I remember that in the battle of Zhenling Pass, the Tianjian State Master used a trick to seal King Garuda's heart."
Prince Luo shook his head: "In the ghost plague of Jinyang City, King Garuda's heart has been destroyed by the divine fire of the Divine Workshop.
It must be that after so many years, it has melted a second heart."
It is not uncommon for powerful demons to give birth to magical powers with multiple lives, which is also the reason why powerful demons are difficult to kill.
Emperor Ming said in a deep voice: "I know, the guard of Zhenling Pass will be handed over to you. If you need any support, just tell me."
Prince Luo clasped his fists and said: "I understand."
At this time, the Eastern Territory Prince asked again: "What was the cause of the demon disaster last night?"
"It's just a scoundrel, not a concern, but the majesty of the imperial capital cannot be challenged. The competition on the martial arts stage that was not held last night will be held tomorrow night." Emperor Ming said loudly.
The four princes all understood what he meant.
What happened last night was the reason why the competition was held, firstly to deter demons and people with ulterior motives, and secondly to demonstrate the military strength of Daqian and let the people maintain their confidence in Daqian.
If not, Emperor Ming would not let the name of the Twelve Gods of the Demon Slayer Division spread throughout Daqian.
After leaving the palace, Qin Feng returned to the Qin Mansion. Just when he couldn't wait to find out what was in the box, he found three people standing outside the Qin Mansion.
It was Zhen Tianyi, Yu Mei and Mu Youqian of the Guanzhongmu family.
Zhen Tianyi smiled and greeted: "Boy, long time no see."
Qin Feng was stunned for a moment, then said happily: "Senior Zhen, Senior Yu."
He paused, turned his head and looked at Mu Youqian who was carrying a coffin. The latter was about to say hello, but heard Qin Feng's unhappy tone: "Why are you here?"
Mu Youqian's raised right hand froze slightly.
It's not Qin Feng's fault for treating them differently. During the New Year, anyone who sees a person carrying a coffin coming to visit the mansion will not give a good face.
"Don't stand at my door with a coffin on your back, hurry in." Qin Feng spat.
Then he said to the other two with a pleasant face: "Senior Zhen, Senior Yu, please come in quickly."
Several people came to a guest room. Qin Feng ordered Qing'er to pour tea. Zhen Tianyi picked up the teacup and shook it: "This tea is too bland. Do you have any wine?"
"Yes, yes." Qin Feng immediately took out a jar of Immortal Drunk from the Xumi Ring.
Mu Youqian, who was standing aside, saw this and asked: "Give me one too."
Before he finished speaking, Qin Feng turned his head and glared: "Huh?"
Mu Youqian said angrily: "Drinking tea is also good. Drinking tea in winter is warm."
"Senior Zhen, why are you with him?"
Zhen Tianyi took a sip of wine and told the cause and effect of the matter.
Qin Feng heard the whole story.
It turned out that Senior Zhen and Senior Yu saw him and his second brother last night and wanted to come over to say hello, but Fengtian City suddenly changed.
Senior Zhen and Senior Yu, one is a divine general and the other is a thirty-six-star, so they naturally cannot stand by and kill the demons in the city.
When they reported to the Demon Slayer Division of the Imperial Capital this morning, Senior Zhen and Senior Yu asked the demon slayer where the Qin Mansion was, and they happened to be heard by Mu Youqian.
The latter was so shameless that he came with them.
"So, how come you are in Fengtian City?" Qin Feng asked with his head tilted.
Mu Youqian looked bitter: "Do you think I want to come?"
Then, he told him everything he had experienced.
"Fei Yi, Yu Luosi, Jiuchongyu, Jieyu" Qin Feng was more and more shocked as he listened.
Unexpectedly, the ghost problem in Fengtian City this time was far more complicated than what was seen on the surface.
"Those demons all escaped from the Nine-Layer Prison. No wonder there are so many demons with great strength at once.
Fortunately, it was the time of the New Year's Day celebration, and the four regions' supreme fighting forces gathered in Fengtian City, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous."
Qin Feng was shocked, and looked at Mu Youqian with some disdain: "Why is it that every time you go there, nothing good happens?"
The fire poison of Bifang was rampant in Jinyang City, and now in Fengtian City, someone broke into the prison, and the curse of Nüba brought disaster to the people.
After all, he is a person who carries a coffin on his back every day, and he is indeed plagued by bad luck.
Oh no, will I also be infected with his bad luck? Qin Feng's face was ugly.
Mu Youqian opened his mouth to defend himself, but he thought about it carefully and felt that the other party was right, and finally he could only sigh helplessly.
Although Qin Feng looked disgusted, he still asked out of concern for a friend: "What are you going to do next? Go back to the Guanzhongmu family directly?"
Mu Youqian shook his head: "The Mu family will close the valley every time during this period, and I can't go back even if I want to."
"Then you stay here first, I'll have someone prepare a guest room for you." Qin Feng said helplessly.
Mu Youqian was grateful when he heard this.
After a pause, Qin Feng asked again: "By the way, Senior Zhen, have all the prisoners who escaped from the Nine-Layer Prison been executed?"
Zhen Tianyi put down his wine glass and shook his head: "There are still some traces that have not been found. The seal of the Fengtian City Boundary Array has been strengthened. Those guys are probably still hiding in the city.
They are not demons themselves, but human beings who practice evil ways. If they hide with all their heart, it will be difficult to find them."
Qin Feng was shocked when he heard this. He only hoped that the Demon Slayer Division could find those guys as soon as possible to prevent them from causing trouble for the people in Fengtian City.
