In the hands of the white-haired veteran, he holds the token of the Dragon Guardian Pavilion. The material used to refine the token is extremely special and impossible to imitate.

Even though Zhang Ruochen had never seen a member of the Dragon Guardian Pavilion, he still had to admit his identity.

Who would have thought that the legendary Dragon Protector Pavilion really existed?

Zhang Ruochen returned the token to Zhao Yang and asked, "Where are the rest of the members of the Dragon Guardian Pavilion?"

Although Zhang Ruochen's cultivation was still very low, Zhao Yang was very respectful to him and didn't dare to offend, and said: "The members of the Dragon Guardian Pavilion are all over the Kunlun Realm, each with different identities and tasks, and only the pavilion master knows the identity of everyone. ”

Zhang Ruochen frowned slightly, and asked again, "What kind of mysterious mission does the Dragon Guardian Pavilion have?"

Zhao Yang shook his head and smiled: "Back to Your Highness, the last general only knows that his task is to guard the royal tomb, and he doesn't know the tasks of other people. However, the Pavilion Master must know. ”

Zhang Ruochen asked some other questions, such as, where is the pavilion master of the Dragon Guardian Pavilion, and did the Dragon Guardian Pavilion take away the treasury of the Shengming Central Empire eight hundred years ago?

However, Zhao Yang knew very little, and Zhang Ruochen did not ask for substantive and useful information.

Zhao Yang told Zhang Ruochen that his master had died, and when he was dying, he only explained to him a way to contact the master of the Dragon Guarding Pavilion, and he could only use it in the most urgent situation. At other times, it was the Dragon Guardian Pavilion Master who took the initiative to contact him.

Zhang Ruochen didn't ask Zhao Yang to contact the Dragon Protector Pavilion Pavilion, not that he didn't want to recall the members of the Dragon Guarding Pavilion, but he felt that the time was not yet ripe.

Now, the situation in the Kunlun realm is changing rapidly, and the dark tide is surging, and unpredictable disasters may break out at any time.

The louder the commotion, the more eye-catching it will be, and the quicker it will die.

Kong Lanyou said: "Actually, my cousin can also recall the members of the Dragon Guardian Pavilion. As long as you raise your arms, have the support of the Dragon Guard Pavilion and the Ming Hall, plus the descendants of the Zhang royal family and the old departments of all parties, you can completely take Shengming City, rebuild the Shengming Central Empire, and become the emperor in one fell swoop, against Chi Yao's First Central Empire. ”

Immediately afterwards, she said: "Now, the army of the imperial court is restrained by the undead in the Eastern Regions, the Dead Zen Sect in the Southern Regions, and the Undead Blood Clan in the Northern Regions, and they have no time to deal with us. We took the opportunity to grow and expand, and the First Central Empire was completely torn apart. ”

Zhang Ruochen shook his head and said, "Your idea is good, but it's a pity that the consideration of the problem only stops at the surface." ”

Kong Lanyou bit her lip, showing an angry look, feeling that Zhang Ruochen didn't give her face too much.

No matter what, she is also the Holy Ancestor of Mingtang, with 800 years of experience, cultivating to be a mystery, and everyone is afraid of her, however, Zhang Ruochen still regarded her as a little girl in her teens and directly refuted her suggestion.

"Are you very unconvinced? Then I'll give you an analysis of the current situation. ”

Zhang Ruochen said: "First of all, whether it is the undead in the Eastern Regions, the Dead Zen Sect in the Southern Regions, or the Undead Blood Clan in the Northern Regions, they are actually not the opponents of the First Central Empire at all. As long as Chi Yao made up his mind and wanted to destroy them, he didn't need to spend too much strength at all. ”

Kong Lanyou naturally knew how terrifying the foundation of the First Central Empire was, and he also knew how terrifying Chi Yao's cultivation was, but he still didn't understand what Zhang Ruochen meant, and showed a puzzled look.

Zhang Ruochen looked at Kong Lanyou, shook his head, and sighed in his heart, after so many years, he really hasn't become smarter.

"I suspect that Chi Yao is training. Zhang Ruochen said.

"Training?"

Zhang Ruochen nodded clearly and said: "The First Central Empire has created a prosperous era of martial arts, with many saints and glory, but the human race has been peaceful for hundreds of years, becoming arrogant and lascivious, becoming arrogant, and has forgotten the days when it survived in the cracks of the barbarian beast races. ”

"If I were Chi Yao and I was also standing at the peak of the Kunlun Realm, seeing such a situation would also attract a force to sharpen them. ”

Huang Yanchen's eyes flickered, and he said, "Did the empress deliberately not clean up the chaos in the Three Domains? In that case, wouldn't a lot of innocent humans die? How could she be so indifferent?"

Kong Lanyou thought carefully, a cold light appeared in her eyes, and said, "With my understanding of her, it is really possible for her to do that." It's still her cousin who knows her best, and her scheming is deeper than anyone else. ”

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Ruochen said again: "Second, the stone talisman left by the Thousand Bone Empress can only seal the passage of the Yin and Yang worlds for several years. It won't be long before more powerful and more undead ghosts will flood into the Kunlun Realm. ”

"That is the real calamity, and the entire Kunlun Realm may not be able to resist it when united. In the face of such a catastrophe, even if we rebuild the Shengming Central Empire and the First Central Empire now, what is the point except for letting us die more?"

"There are too many hidden dangers in the Kunlun realm, many ancient forces, and many powerful heroes are still dormant, waiting for the opportunity. We will take the lead in jumping out and rebuilding the Shengming Central Empire, which will definitely become the target of everyone, and will not end well. ”

Just the two hidden dangers of the Hades King and the Blood Queen already made Zhang Ruochen feel very uneasy.

What's more, the Kunlun realm is not only the Hades King and the Blood Queen?

After all, the Undead Blood Clan was just one of the Ancient Clans.

Don't mention it from afar, let's just say that the ancient clan of chasing corpses and raising ghosts, they dare to jump out and make waves, there must be some hidden means.

The Kunlun realm is too big, and a dead person like Zhang Ruochen can come back to life after eight hundred years, who knows how many things are hidden that are beyond ordinary people's cognition?

With Kong Lanyou's current identity and cultivation, he naturally knows a lot of secrets about the Kunlun Realm. Her small mouth moved slightly, and finally she didn't say anything, and continued to listen to Zhang Ruochen's explanation.

Zhang Ruochen's tone calmed down a bit, and said, "There is a third one, can Mingtang really come together with the Zhang clan of the royal family?"

Hearing this question, Kong Lanyou clenched his lips and teeth, and sighed secretly in his heart, "It's time to come, it's still here after all!" Zhang Ruochen no longer avoided it, and asked, "Lan You, Peacock Villa should owe me an explanation, right? Eight hundred years ago, why?"

Sooner or later, you'll have to ask.

If you don't ask, there will always be a gap between him and Kong Lanyou.

Kong Lanyou didn't dare to look at Zhang Ruochen, but instead stared at the mausoleum in the distance, and said, "Cousin, I was still very young at the time, and I didn't know why those things happened. Until later...... It was already hundreds of years before I learned the truth. ”?“ What is the truth?" Zhang Ruochen said.

Kong Lanyou's eyes blinked, and with a pleading look, he said, "For the time being, I can't tell you yet." ”

"It's just a truth, is it so difficult to tell it?" Zhang Ruochen's heart was very puzzled.

What exactly does Kong Lanyou want to hide, and why is he reluctant to say it?

Eight hundred years have passed, many things have happened, and they have become a thing of the past, and there is still a need to hide them?

Kong Lanyou shook his head vigorously and said, "Please, cousin, don't force me, okay? When I think I can tell you, I will definitely tell you everything." ”?“ Well, I don't force you. Zhang Ruochen sighed.

Finally, Kong Lanyou breathed a sigh of relief, she didn't want to hide Zhang Ruochen at all, but she had to hide it.

There are some things that are not as simple as they seem.

Kong Lanyou said: "I am the Holy Ancestor of the Ming Hall, as long as I am willing, I can order all the departments of the Ming Hall." Cousin, whenever you want to rebuild the Shengming Central Empire, I will rush to support you as soon as possible. ”

With Kong Lanyu's current cultivation and identity, he can still say such things, Zhang Ruochen's heart is naturally very moved.

It's just that the Ming Hall and the old department loyal to the Shengming Central Empire have already broken up, and they have a deep hatred for each other, even if they are forcibly integrated, they will definitely bury hidden dangers.

In Zhang Ruochen's view, instead of that, it is better to go all out to develop Mingzong and cultivate a force that truly belongs to him.

Zhang Ruochen did not ask Kong Lanyou if his identity was leaked and whether it was related to her. Because, he already believed that Kong Lanyu would never do such a thing.

Then, there is only one person left, Kong Hongbi.

"Kong Hongbi probably just wants to use other forces to find out me, and he doesn't necessarily know my identity. Zhang Ruochen said secretly.

Kong Lanyou saw a cold light flash in Zhang Ruochen's eyes, so he asked, "Cousin, what are you thinking?"

"Nothing. ”

Zhang Ruochen smiled slightly, and did not say the grievances between him and Kong Hongbi.

Zhang Ruochen never likes to rely on the strength of others, and what he can solve by himself must be done by himself.

Only when you are strong is you really strong.

In the next period of time, Zhang Ruochen stayed in the royal cemetery, not only guarding the mausoleum for his mother, but also cultivating and improving his cultivation.

By refining divine blood, Zhang Ruochen's cultivation successfully broke through to the peak of the fifth-order half-saint.

On this day, Zhao Yang brought a piece of news, "There is a civil strife in Mingtang, and the imperial army is gathering, ready to take this opportunity to destroy Mingtang in one fell swoop." ”

The interior of the Ming Hall is not monolithic, there are more than ten forces from the previous dynasties, and Peacock Villa is only the largest of them.

The various forces have different interests, and it is not impossible for civil strife to break out.

Hearing the news, Kong Lanyou prepared to go back, and said, "Cousin, come back to Mingtang with me?" When I calm down the civil strife, I can support you to be the hall master of Mingtang." ”

"No, I can't. ”

Huang Yanchen walked out and immediately objected, saying, "Mingtang has just broken out of civil strife, and the imperial army has already assembled, is it too strange?" I suspect that this matter is related to the empress. When she left the Central Imperial City, it was very likely that she was preparing to clear the Ming Hall first. At this time, wouldn't it be quite dangerous for Brother Chen and you to return to Mingtang?"

Kong Lanyou pondered carefully, and felt that Huang Yanchen's words were not completely unreasonable, and said, "Cousin, I will come to you again when I calm down the civil strife in Mingtang." ”

Zhang Ruochen also felt that this matter was very strange, but he also knew that Kong Lanyou had to rush back, because the clansmen of Peacock Villa were still in Mingtang.

Eight hundred years have passed, Kong Lanyou has indeed not changed, however, the responsibility on her body has become very heavy.

is no longer just an innocent little girl, and no longer just Zhang Ruochen's cousin, but the Holy Ancestor of Mingtang.

"Lan You!"

Zhang Ruochen stopped her, reminded her, and said, "Be careful, if you see Chi Yao, don't fight with her." Sooner or later, I will personally go to her palace and make her pay the price she deserves. ”

Kong Lan replied, nodded, and then, turned into a white streamer and disappeared into the royal tomb forest.
