C2343 Shut the Door
The princess would become his trump card, and he could not easily expose her.
There were two reasons for his return. The first was that the Time Stone's cooldown was up. The second was for the Origin Immortal Silver mine. Victory and defeat had already been decided in the war in the north. The Origin Immortal Silver Mine was about to belong to dust.
The materials for the Phoenix Nirvana Body Refinement Technique were hard to find, but it didn't mean that they didn't exist. As the game progressed, more and more rare materials appeared. After half a year of collecting, they were finally gathered.
It had to be mentioned that Wealth On Week’s Eighth Day's influence was increasing day by day, and he was now able to get close to the owner of the Bright Moon Adornment Door and the Thousands Treasure Pavilion. He mainly walked the path of the lower nine sects, and he was well-informed. Whether it was Bright Moon decorative door or Lord Treasure, they would often look for him to inquire about information.
In the past, when Dongfang Qingyu collected items, he needed to start from the last place. The black market, Thousands Treasure Pavilion, and Wealth On Week’s Eighth Day also needed to look for Hong Shisan sometimes. There was no need for that now. All he needed to do was follow Wealth On Week’s Eighth Day's lead.
It saved him a lot of trouble and also increased Wealth On Week’s Eighth Day's influence. Everyone knew that if Wealth On Week’s Eighth Day gave rare materials to them, they could sell them for a good price.
Time stones were very useful and needed to be rare. Dongfang Qingyu chose the latter between keeping the time stones to be used for promotion and body refinement in the National Sentence for the National Sentence Monitoring.
The reason why he hesitated was because of the problem of time. The promotion of the National Guardian was not that fast for the time being. At the very least, he had to wait until the problem of the Northern Tribes was over before he could be rewarded.
But that was not necessarily the case. If the matter of the Origin Immortal Silver Mine was settled... If the General's Estate sent troops, the war might end within a few days. The Great General was a truly powerful person. He had increased the number of people who fought to the royal court of the Northern Tribes. In terms of familiarity with the Northern Tribes, no one could compare to the Great General.
The Northern Tribes did not dare to invade for several decades. This time, they could not live any longer, so they threw it out alone. Why? Wasn't it because they were afraid of the Great General? Why did the Imperial Court not pay attention to the problem of the Northern Tribes? It was because they knew that as long as the Great General took action... The problem of the Northern Tribes would be solved very quickly.
Therefore, the matter of promotion depended entirely on the Great General's attitude. The next promotion would be a rank five official. If he wanted to stay in the National Guardian for at least 27 months, he would need a Time Stone. Otherwise, he would not be able to live this long.
The Phoenix Nirvana Body Refinement also needed time, but it didn't need that much time. A few months would be enough, and he would still be able to endure it. However, considering that meeting the Great General is a very risky matter... What if the Great General turned hostile? If Lu Howling Tiger could grasp the skill 'White Tiger Corpse Escorting', the Great General's skill would only be even more terrifying. He didn't think that the Great General didn't have a 'Super Forbidden Spell', nor did he think that a 'Super Forbidden Spell' could kill the Great General. He had two, but it was still unknown whether he could kill the Great General. The Great General was one of the most powerful people in the empire, and it was even more likely that... He might not have the chance to release the Ultimate Forbidden Spell in front of the Great General.
There were too many unpredictable risks. One had to be tough when forging. The so-called negotiation was actually to compare whose fist was harder. The Lotus Blossoming Tongue was actually a lie, and it was useless against the Great General.
Many considerations made Dongfang Qingyu choose to use the Time Stone on the Phoenix Nirvana Body Refinement. The pain of each body refinement was doubled from the last time. But every time he succeeded in body refinement, his physical fitness would also double. This allowed Dongfang Qingyu to withstand this kind of inhumane pain. Of course, will is also very important.
The process was already very familiar, and there wouldn't be any problems with the process. The only problem was Dongfang Qingyu himself. Dongfang Qingyu wasn't a pampered young master, and he suffered physical pain. He could bear it. He gritted his teeth and did not say a word. A few months of time was only an hour of time for the Time Stone.
The moment he succeeded, if it wasn't for his extreme success, Dongfang Qingyu would have felt so comfortable that he wanted to moan. He only opened his eyes after recovering for ten minutes. His constitution had doubled. His current HP could resist an attack from a 'Super Forbidden Spell'. If such attributes were to be exposed, many players would be in trouble. Rushing to the official website to request for a change in the rules was too exaggerated.
Dongfang Qingyu did not feel proud of his sudden increase in strength. He became more cautious and careful in his actions. He did not directly go to the General's Estate, but first went to the yamen to find Chang Wei. Although Chang Wei was only a small book, he was a key figure that connected the yamen to the General's Estate. With his recommendation, presumably the attitude of the General's Estate would be much better.
However, Chang Wei, who had always wanted to sit in the government office, was actually not there. He asked the bailiff, and the bailiff said that Chang Wei had taken a leave of absence. He had not come to work yesterday, so he did not know where he had gone.
Dongfang Qingyu asked the bailiff Chang Wei's residence, but he was told that Chang Wei was a workaholic and lived in the county office, not at home.
Alright, Dongfang Qingyu left the government office, but Six Fans Gate was looking for Chen Jin. The Six Fans Gate divine ability, Guang University, and all of them were outstanding people. Don't think that it had nothing to do with the General's Estate, their network of connections had long touched the General's Estate. Very quickly, Dongfang Qingyu came out from the Six Fans Gate, but Chen Jin was not there. He went to investigate a case. Recently, there were many cases, and the experts of the Six Fans Gate had all gone out to investigate. The only ones left were the guards at the door.
In Azure Dragon City, the two NPCs with the best relationship were not there. Dongfang Qingyu had no choice but to take things one step at a time. Fortunately, it was not that he did not have a clue. There were still people he knew in General's Estate. Although Zhao Weiming was not as good as Chen Jin and Chang Wei Light Element, however, it shouldn't be a problem to bring him in.
General's Estate was said nicely in Azure Dragon City. In fact, 100 kilometers away from' Azure Dragon City ', this was still a straight line distance. The real distance was about 120 kilometers, and the 10,000 Mile Stallion would run at full speed for an hour.
General's Estate was the same as the House of Prime Minister in the beginning, they were both within the Azure Dragon City. On the side of the Forbidden City, they were like two fists. One on the left and one on the right, the guardian of the 'Forbidden City'. After some unknown change, the General's Estate moved to the military camp. After a long time, the General's Estate was already synonymous with the military camp. Everyone no longer mentioned the military camp and only talked about the General's Estate.
As for the distance, it was very easy to understand. There were four guards protecting it at a close distance. The General's Estate naturally did not dare to be too close. Would it still dare to compete with the Emperor's Direct Army for the rights to guard the Imperial Palace? As long as one wasn't stupid enough to accelerate, one wouldn't dare to be too close. But he also did not dare to be too far away, because he had to accept the Emperor's orders at any time.
If the army was too big, they would race against time. If they were too far away... It would take a few hours to send a message, but if something happened... The crime of General's Estate would be huge. So, this distance really made General's Estate put in a lot of thought.
Dongfang Qingyu didn't ride a horse, and called a carriage to drive towards the General's Estate. On the way there, he had predicted many difficulties and problems. He also thought about how to solve it, but he never would have thought that... He didn't even enter the gate of the General's Estate and was directly blocked outside the military camp.
"This is an important area of the military camp. All of you, quickly leave. If not, kill without mercy!"
The main gate of the military camp was tightly shut, on the city wall that was made of wood. Standing in a row was Warrior, who was wearing a full set of armor, and was emitting a dense cold aura. Especially the weapon hanging from his waist, even though it had not been unsheathed yet. It already made people feel a strong killing intent. A team of ten Warrior drew their bows and arrows, aiming at Dongfang Qingyu. They waited for the commanding officer's order to shoot Dongfang Qingyu like a hedgehog. The triangular arrow was extremely sharp and shiny.
The killing intent was dense. Before Dongfang Qingyu could say anything, more than fifty meters behind him... The driver was so scared that he whipped the horse's butt. The carriage turned around. It sped away as if it was fleeing. Its speed was two or three times faster than before. In the blink of an eye, it was a hundred meters away.
"F * ck!"
Dongfang Qingyu almost gave him the middle finger. This coachman was too unreliable. The man who was targeted by the arrow had not left yet. Why did a man fifty meters away run so fast? He regretted paying too early, so he should have waited. When he went back, he would pay the same amount, not first.
The coachman was a small matter, and entering the General's Estate was the most important thing. On the city wall, when the officer was about to raise his right arm, he released a golden light, and a brilliant aura filled the air, instantly diluting the cold killing intent.
"Human race's Combat King!" On top of the city wall, the eyes of a silver-white armored officer narrowed. His right arm, which had been raised halfway, stopped moving and slowly lowered.
Even if he was given a few guts, he wouldn't dare to harm a person who had the title of 'human race's Combat King'.
"I wonder how I should address you, General. Can I trouble you to inform the Great General? I have something to ask for an audience." Dongfang Qingyu gave a military salute.
"The Great General ordered yesterday that the military camp is closed, and no visitors are allowed. Please forgive me, Warlord." The killing intent on the officer's face was gone, but he was still cold.
"Why is that?" Dongfang Qingyu asked. Sealing up the military camp was a big deal, but he didn't get any news about Azure Dragon City.
"This is an order from the Great General. We just need to follow the order, and we don't know anything else!" The Changgong said.
"Even if an official from the Imperial Court is here, can't he go in?" Dongfang Qingyu released the prestige of a rank 6 civil servant. The position of the officer on the city wall was lower than his, but the other side had the entire military camp as their backing, so his position could not suppress them.
"Unless you have a General Token or an Imperial Decree, you are not allowed to enter." The officer's expression changed slightly. A rank 6 civil servant with the title of human race's Combat King had a bright future ahead of him, and he did not dare to offend him.
"I'll have to trouble General Zhao and General Zhao Weimin to inform me that I, Dongfang Qingyu, have something to discuss with him. As for whether General Zhao saw him or not, it was his business. This matter won't make things difficult for General Zhao, right? " Dongfang Qingyu stared at his commanding officer with the dignity of a rank 6 civil servant.
"Battle King, wait a moment. This general will go and report right away. However, whether or not General Zhao is willing to come, this general cannot guarantee." The commanding officer hesitated for a few seconds, but he still felt that Dongfang Qingyu was someone he could befriend and not offend.
"Thank you, General. No matter if General Zhao is willing to come or not, I will remember your kindness." Dongfang Qingyu said solemnly. The officer did not say anything else. He cupped his fists. After getting off the city wall, they heard the sound of horses galloping into the barracks. In an instant, they were far away.
