Chapter 386: Land Construction, Hero's End, and Women's Hearts
"Use the Tianlong Mountains as a base and build a city. The Brahma Fire Region, Ghost Mist Forest, and Lei Ze Island are listed as forbidden areas. Set up magic arrays in these three places. No one is allowed to enter without my order. Wait until I come out of seclusion and then we will make a long-term plan."
hum!
The Shadow Gate mask trembled slightly.
Everything returned to normal. Fu Changlei's originally anxious heart calmed down after getting Fu Changsheng's approval.
Since the head of the family asked us to build a stronghold in the Tianlong Mountains.
This shows that Huizhou Prefecture still has a chance to be saved.
After removing the formation.
Only then did Fu Changlei come out of the cave and join everyone in exploring the Tianlong Mountains.
a few days later.
Everyone gathered in a temporary cave.
Fu Changlei saw that everyone was losing their morale.
He pondered for a while.
Still speaking:
"There's no need to be so dejected. Huizhou Prefecture may not be as dangerous as the Wanning Chamber of Commerce has said."
after all.
What comes out from other people's mouths is all exaggerated.
Just like Captain Yan had enthusiastically introduced Huizhou Prefecture to them before.
There was a pause.
Fu Changlei continued:
"Besides, I have already contacted the owner of the house."
This statement came out.
Everyone immediately looked up.
Fu Yongyi felt a little guilty. His father had entrusted such an important matter to them, but they messed it up. His father must be very disappointed in them.
Yaoyao's eyes lit up:
"Uncle Chang Lei, what did father say?"
In her opinion.
My father always finds a way to turn danger into safety.
Fugui and Widow Wang were afraid that the patriarch would get angry, and they would be used as cannon fodder.
Fu Changlei said calmly:
"Message from the Head of the House"
"Let us set up formations in three dangerous places, make them forbidden areas, and assign people to guard them. No one is allowed to enter or leave without his order."
"also"
"Using Taiqiu Mountain Range as a base, we began to build our fiefdom."
"As for all the rumors about the fiefdom, once the Patriarch comes out of seclusion, he will personally resolve them."
This statement came out.
Everyone was visibly relieved.
The head of the family did not mean to blame them.
and.
From what the patriarch said, it was clear that he had a plan to deal with the situation.
The crowd, who were originally somewhat discouraged, finally showed a look of relief on their faces and began to discuss how to build a stronghold.
Yaoyao took the lead and said:
"Uncle Chang Lei, this Tianlong Mountain Range itself contains a third-grade top-grade spiritual vein. In addition, it is not difficult to set up a formation, unlike the other three dangerous places. If we really want to stay in the fiefdom for a long time, we can first set up a third-grade mountain protection formation in Tianlong Mountain."
Fu Changlei shook his head.
The land in the far west is different from other states.
Also.
Huizhou Prefecture is even more dangerous.
If you want to stay here, the general third-level mountain protection formation will not be of any use at all:
"Yaoyao, let's work together to study this. Based on our previous experience, we will rethink the construction plan of the Demon Control City. Apart from other things, the defense should at least be able to withstand the attack of a Jindan Zhenren."
Yaoyao nodded.
Then he said:
"In that case, Uncle Chang Lei, why don't you invite Fairy Tianyin and Fellow Daoist Yu over as well? They are both third-level formation masters. By combining their strengths, it will definitely be much faster than just you and me studying together."
After all, it's only three years away.
The imperial court would then transport the mortals over.
Fugui whispered a reminder:
"The transportation fee for Fairy Tianyin and Fairy 2 from Jingzhou to Jingzhou, and then from Jingzhou to Wuzhou is a lot of spiritual stones. In addition, it also delayed Fairy Tianyin and Fairy 2's cultivation. In my humble opinion, why don't we use the city construction map of Yuyao City as a reward and hire other third-level formation masters from other families to come and study together, or we can use the city construction map as an exchange and let the fourth-level formation master of Wanning Chamber of Commerce help us improve it a little bit."
Two options.
Both are much easier and less laborious than trying to figure it out on your own.
Fu Yongyi on the side took a closer look at the plain-looking Fugui. It was obvious that after Fu Yongshang, their Fu family was going to have another business genius.
however.
Fu Changlei rejected it outright:
"No"
"After the improvement, the Demon-Controlling City will become the foundation of our survival in the Far West. If it is repaired by someone else, the defense of the Demon-Controlling City will be useless!"
After being fooled by Captain Yan.
Fu Changlei made up his mind not to trust anyone.
Yaoyao also nodded in agreement:
"Just follow Uncle Lei's wishes."
It's nothing more than spending more spirit stones and manpower, but it's a once-and-for-all solution:
"And according to my father's wishes, we also need to build formations in the Burning Sky Fire Region, the Misty Ghost Forest, and the Thunder Lake Island, which also requires the assistance of other formation masters. In addition, Sister Ningning has been married into the palace for many years, and Fellow Daoist Yu has not seen her for many years. This time when they come to Jingzhou, they can also meet each other."
Fugui heard this.
Added a sentence:
"Elders, there will be many clansmen coming and going from Huizhou Prefecture in the future, but they will have to borrow the teleportation array of the Zhenshi Division every time. In the long run, it will cost a lot of spiritual stones. As far as I know, the seventh-grade family has the right to build a teleportation array. In this case, we might as well apply to the court as soon as possible. After the teleportation array is put into use, it will save us money and effort."
Fu Changlei looked at Fugui with high regard.
Nodding:
"Yes, the head of the family has also sent a message to us to build a two-way teleportation array in the Tianlong Mountains of Huizhou Prefecture and the Yunshan County fiefdom of Huainan Prefecture in Jingzhou."
Jingzhou.
The Palace of the Seventh Prince.
The guards at the gate suddenly felt a breeze blowing. They looked around suspiciously, and when they saw nothing unusual, they stood still again.
however.
What they didn't notice was.
However, a figure had passed through the gate of the palace without anyone noticing.
The palace has set up many restrictions.
But to this person it is useless.
Also.
I don't know what secret technique he used, but no one patrolling the palace noticed it. However, the patrol beasts in the palace twitched their noses and let out angry roars, obviously a little restless.
Mr. Qiu who guards the Soul Palace.
At this moment, he suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze fell on the first soul lamp on the altar, his body trembled, and a look of horror appeared on his face:
"This"
But I saw the soul lamp swaying in the wind.
It seems like it could go out at any second:
"The king of the county!"
The prince is dying!!
How could this be?
When Mr. Qiu stood up, his legs went weak and he almost fell to the ground.
The prince was clearly on the verge of reaching the Nascent Soul stage, so how could he suddenly be in critical condition?
The stakes are high.
If something happens to the prince, the world in the prince's mansion will change:
"You must report this to the Princess and the Crown Prince immediately."
The Princess of the County may have a way to contact the Princess. With the Princess's power and ability, no matter what the Prince of the County has encountered, she will definitely be able to help him. Over the years, although the Prince of the County and the Princess have a weak relationship, they are still mother and son after all.
Old Qiu stumbled to his feet.
He originally wanted to go find the Princess and the Crown Prince in person, but after calming down, he felt it was too conspicuous, so he immediately took out the communication talisman and quickly entered a spell. With a humming sound, the talisman began to glow, and he spoke a few words quickly.
next moment.
Quietly activate the Soul Palace's formation at full speed.
The secret prison of the palace.
The princess in her palace dress glanced down at Ning Ning, who was lying on the ground covered in blood, and said coldly:
"If you don't take the initiative to break the pet contract with Mu Feishu, I will not cover up your scandal of having an affair with a wild man and getting pregnant with a bastard. Once the scandal comes out, you will definitely not be able to stay in the palace any longer. In addition, your two sons will also be implicated. If you still want to be favored like before, it is undoubtedly a foolish dream. You must think it through."
"Which is more important, a spiritual pet or the future of your two sons?"
"also"
"Without the support of the Wangfu, your family will no longer be able to gain a foothold in Jingzhou. It will be a pipe dream."
"Have you figured it out?"
The Princess looked confident of victory.
At this time, Ningning's magic power had obviously been imprisoned, and she was just like an ordinary person.
She raised her eyes with difficulty and glanced at the high-ranking Princess of the County, her eyes full of hatred:
"Don't even think about it, old whore!"
"If you really have the ability, kill me now."
Ningning never expected that marrying into the Prince's Mansion would be the beginning of her nightmare.
She had been able to endure all the excuses the Princess had for making things difficult for her before, after all, her husband's heart was with her. But she didn't expect that the despicable man would immediately change his face after she gave birth to Kang'er and he had a little more respect in front of the Prince.
He favors women outside every day.
The promise of being together forever has become a joke.
She had given up and was thinking about leaving this hellhole. But she didn't expect that the vicious woman, the Princess of the County, would find out that the wood flying squirrel was a rare animal, and that she had an affair with someone voluntarily.
Why can a man have three wives and four concubines?
Women have to stay alone in an empty room.
She just won’t!
Since the relationship between the two is no longer there, she still wants to be a widow:
"Old whore, for all that you have done to me today, one day someone will repay you a hundredfold or a thousandfold on my behalf."
"Oh, do you mean your mother's family, the Fu family, or the Yu family?"
The princess sneered.
Then he narrowed his eyes slightly:
"Since you don't want to drink my toast, don't blame me for being cruel."
Finished.
One shot storage bag.
A flash of glow.
Then a soul-locking nail emitting witchy light flashed and appeared.
Seeing the Soul Locking Nail, Ning Ning's eyes flashed with panic. In her current state, if she died, everything would be over, but she didn't want Mu Feishu to suffer with her:
"What are you doing, old whore?"
The Princess smiled but said nothing.
The Soul-Locking Nail can lock the seven souls and six spirits, but the life force is still there. In addition, as time goes by, the Soul-Locking Nail can devour the host's soul, and the person will become a walking corpse.
In other words.
The soul contract between Ningning and Mu Feishu will be automatically terminated at that time.
Also.
The soul lamp that Ningning left at the Fu family was still on, and no one in the Fu family could find any clues.
The Princess sneered and cast a spell into the Soul-Locking Nail.
hum!
The soul-locking nail lit up with a witchy light.
Then, under Ningning's horrified gaze, the gun pierced through the opponent's forehead with a whoosh sound. A strand of blood from Ningning's forehead dripped onto the ground with a smack. As if in great pain, the whole person curled up like a bow, but could not make any sound:
"Humph"
The Princess made hand gestures again.
Rumble.
The dungeon floor cracked, and then an ice coffin appeared.
There was a click.
The coffin lid opened, and a white claw stretched out from inside, bringing Ningning into the coffin as fast as lightning. The coffin lid closed again with a bang, and the cracked ground healed again, without any clues being visible at all.
After everything is done.
The princess came out from the dungeon.
Waved.
He called two people over and gave them detailed instructions.
Followed by.
The people in the palace soon discovered that Ningning, who had not appeared for a long time, and a guard left the palace and arrived at the Zhenshi Division. They then took the teleportation array and left Jingzhou.
soon.
There were rumors circulating privately in the Prince's Mansion:
"The Seventh Young Master's wife had an affair with a guard and was caught in bed. In order to protect the child she was carrying, she eloped with her lover!"
The Princess was very satisfied after listening to the reports from her subordinates.
at the same time.
The communication jade talisman on her body lit up.
Send everyone away.
A spell was cast into it.
hum!
The voice of Mr. Qiu came:
"Please come to the Soul Palace in person, Madam."
Soul Palace?
The Princess was stunned for a moment.
In addition to the prince's bloodline, the Soul Palace also houses many daughters-in-law and granddaughters-in-law who married into the mansion. There are no less than a hundred people in the prince's mansion. If something happens to unrelated people in the prince's mansion, Old Qiu usually reports it directly, but now she wants her to go there in person.
Is it not.
The Princess was shocked.
When he thought of a possibility, panic appeared in his eyes.
He immediately announced to the public that he would sit in silence.
In fact, he was wearing an invisibility cloak and walking quickly towards the Soul Palace.
hum!
The light curtain of the Soul Palace formation opened.
Mr. Qiu came up quickly and said:
"Mother!"
"Mr. Qiu, what happened?"
The princess kept walking.
Without Elder Qiu saying anything, after entering the main room of the Soul Palace, the Prince's Soul Lamp swaying in the wind on the altar came into view. It seemed as if the Soul Lamp could go out at any time. The Princess's feet softened, and she staggered forward, almost losing her balance:
"How could this happen?!"
Before the prince sets out.
I clearly told myself that this time I was going to the Eastern Wilderness.
If everything goes well.
Then there is hope of breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage!
Once the princes break through to the Nascent Soul stage, their titles will be upgraded:
"What happened to the prince in the East Desert?"
The princess was in a state of panic. Old Qiu beside her said quickly:
"Madam, the prince is in danger. Do you think you should contact the princess immediately and ask her to ask the Tianji Pavilion to tell your fortune. Once you find out the prince's movements, take action in time. Otherwise, it will be too late."
Mr. Qiu’s words reminded the Princess.
She nodded repeatedly:
"Yes, yes, yes, contact the eldest princess. Only Her Royal Highness can save the prince now."
After reacting.
The Princess's eyes fell on Old Man Qiu.
Mr. Qiu was a very smart man, and he immediately understood the concerns of the Princess:
"Don't worry, Madam. Only you and I know about this matter. No third person will know about it until the matter is clear."
"very good"
Mr. Qiu is considered to be from the same faction as the prince.
If anything happens to the prince, her son will succeed to the throne. Although the position of the crown prince is as stable as a rock, I am afraid that someone will do something desperate.
The Princess of the County solemnly instructed:
"Master Qiu, from now on, no one is allowed to enter or leave the Soul Palace without my order, including the prince. Do you understand?"
The more people know, the greater the risk of leakage.
Come out of the Soul Palace.
The princess returned to the main room, took out the secret box given to her by the prince, and opened the ban, only to find that the box was empty:
"This is."
There was a flash of panic in the Princess's eyes.
The box contains an important token of contact with the eldest princess, and only he and the prince know about this box.
but.
She has never used it.
I have never contacted the eldest princess.
Since it's not her.
Then there is only one other possibility.
The princess quickly left the main room and went to the secret room where the prince usually meditated.
A spell was cast into the secret room.
hum!
The runes on the door of the secret room surged, followed by a ripple, and with a bang, the stone door opened, and a pungent smell of blood hit me in the face:
"This is."
The Princess of the County shook her body and entered the secret room.
A wave of sleeves.
The door to the secret room slammed shut.
The secret room is divided into two layers, the inner and outer layers. The jade stones leading from the outer layer to the inner layer are covered with blood, which has not dried yet, and there are wisps of black air lingering around.
The Princess was shocked.
Take a few quick steps.
Open the inner door.
next moment.
The prince covered in blood came into view.
The prince was lying on the ground, with not a single piece of good flesh on his body, as if he had been burned by some strange fire. As he breathed, a faint dragon's breath erupted from his heart and lungs:
"The king of the county!"
The princess was shocked and stepped forward quickly. She probed the prince's body with her spiritual sense and found that his golden elixir had been shattered. The eight extraordinary meridians in his body were like rice and platycodon burned by wildfire, which would shatter at the slightest touch. If it were an ordinary person, he would have died long ago, but the prince was still able to hold on and return to the prince's mansion. It was obvious that he had taken some kind of magic medicine.
just.
The Seventh Prince thought he could suppress the injuries in his body.
But not long ago.
The injuries in his body suddenly broke out.
Now the whole person is at the moment of death:
"Your Majesty, you must hold on!"
The princess hurriedly slapped her storage bag, and then a jade bottle appeared. In the bottle was a life-extending elixir. As long as a person is still alive, it can pull him back from the gates of hell. This was something she got by chance.
however.
When she was about to take out the elixir.
The action was paused.
at this time.
Thousands of thoughts flooded my mind.
Even if the prince's life is saved, he will become a disabled person. His dantian, meridians and golden elixir are all destroyed. There will be no possibility of making a comeback in the future.
The princess put the life-extending elixir back into the bottle and gritted her teeth.
Ever since the daughter of the Fu family gave birth to twins, the prince has devoted all his heart and soul to raising the pair of grandsons, doting on them far more than on the princes born to them. And because of the instigation of that vixen from the Lei family, the relationship between her and the prince is no longer the same as before.
Especially after she got rid of that bitch from the Lei family.
The prince said whatever he wanted, but his attitude towards her was cold as ice.
Ever since that bitch died.
The couple never spoke to each other again.
Think about it.
The princess took several steps back.
The hesitation in his eyes turned into determination, and he turned and left the secret room.
Instead of rescuing a useless person and adding variables, it is better to play dumb and pretend that he saw nothing. In this way, after the prince dies, his son can naturally inherit the title of prince.
The most important thing is.
The princess will certainly feel guilty about the prince's death.
Their palace can take this opportunity to get in touch with the eldest princess and improve their relationship. With the eldest princess as their grandmother at the helm, not only will their son be able to achieve the Golden Core stage, but he may even have a chance of achieving the Nascent Soul stage!
The value of the prince's death is far greater than his life.
The Princess looked back at the Prince of County one last time, picked up the token that contained the contact with the Princess Eldest, which was obviously still covered in dust. She cast a few spells to erase all traces of her presence, then turned and left the secret room.
now.
Only the last person was left who knew that something had happened to the prince.
That is Mr. Qiu!
There was a hint of ruthlessness in the eyes of the Princess. After coming out of the secret room, she immediately stepped into the Soul Palace again at night.
When Mr. Qiu saw her coming back, he looked concerned:
"Madam, have you contacted the Princess?"
On the altar.
The soul lamp of the Seventh Prince became even fainter.
The Princess nodded:
"We've made contact. The princess has already taken the teleportation array and is heading directly to the East Desert. I hope everything will be in time."
To the end.
The princess was sobbing.
Old Qiu also had a sad look on his face, and at the same time he sincerely admired the Princess.
Over the years, the prince has taken in many concubines, especially after the Lei family girl came into the family, the relationship between the mistress and the prince has become increasingly distant. In recent years, it has become even colder than before. But when something really happened, the mistress was the only one who could put herself in the prince's shoes and think about him:
"Madam"
"When the prince wakes up and knows what you have done for him, the relationship between you two will surely be restored to its original state."
The Princess lowered her eyes.
The sobbing paused, and with a wave of his sleeves, a box floated towards Mr. Qiu:
"Mr. Qiu, your tea art is top-notch in the Prince's Mansion. Please help me make a pot of Ningxin tea to help me calm my mind."
"it is good"
Old Qiu felt that he could do something small for his mistress, and he became more motivated.
Flowing clouds and flowing water.
The aroma of Ningxin Tea lingers in the Soul Hall:
"Madam, the tea is ready."
Mr. Qiu poured a cup himself and handed it to the Princess. The Princess took it but did not drink it. She suddenly asked:
"Master Qiu, when I left before, no one from the Soul Palace came, right?"
Old man Qiu was shaking it like a rattle.
Ding Ding Road:
"Don't worry, Madam. No one has ever set foot in the Soul Palace. Besides, I haven't told anyone else."
While talking.
Mr. Qiu felt waves of dizziness coming over him.
Followed by.
He fell to the ground with a thud.
The whole person looked like he was asleep.
The princess poured out the teacup in her hand, and the tea dripped onto the other person. Then, a strange scene happened. Old Qiu's entire body turned into a ball of white smoke and suddenly disappeared without leaving any trace.
"in this way"
“No one in this world will know anymore.”
The princess glanced at the prince's soul lamp on the stage.
A tear fell.
After all, the two have been walking hand in hand for more than a hundred years.
but.
Soon a smile of victory appeared on her face.
Soon after.
She is the real owner of this palace.
She no longer has to rely on others for support. She is completely free and has control over all the resources of the palace. She can find a spiritual object to break through the bottleneck that has stuck her at the peak of the Purple Mansion for many years, become a Golden Core True Person who is above one person and below ten thousand people, and enjoy hundreds of years of life!
Think about it.
Her smile reached her eyes.
Just as he was about to turn around and leave, he suddenly showed an expression as if he had seen a ghost. He turned around abruptly and stared at the soul lamp of the Seventh Prince on the altar in disbelief:
"How is this possible!!!"
The Seventh Prince was already at the end of his strength.
How could it be.
How come the flame of the Soul Lamp suddenly became so bright?
I must have seen it wrong.
The Princess took a few quick steps and almost fell on the altar. She even rubbed her eyes in disbelief, but the fire of life on the Seventh Prince's soul lamp was frighteningly bright.
The Princess suddenly broke out in a cold sweat out of fright.
My mind raced.
I don't know where the leak happened.
but.
Now she had to go there in person to see what was going on.
Come out of the Soul Palace.
The Princess returned to the door of the secret room.
A spell was cast, and the door to the secret room opened, only to find that the blood on the ground had been cleared away:
"This"
Sudden changes.
The princess felt that she had just had a dream.
Enter the secret room.
But a woman came into view.
The Princess of the County choked and looked at the other person's face. The woman was Liu Meizhen. Liu Meizhen had been stationed in Jingzhou for many years. The Princess of the County naturally recognized her, but at this moment she had a bad feeling in her heart:
"Liu Meizhen, you are so brave that you dare to sneak into the palace without permission. You are so bold!"
While talking.
Her spiritual sense swept towards the inner door of the secret room.
However, he found that his spiritual consciousness was like a mud dragon entering the sea and he couldn't get a glimpse of the situation inside at all.
The powerful pressure from the peak of the Purple Mansion on his body instantly overflowed, turning into a whirlwind and crushing towards Liu Meizhen:
"Tell me, what is your purpose in coming here?"
Liu Meizhen's magic power was activated, and she stomped her right foot on the ground. The two waves of air collided with each other. Although Liu Meizhen's power was slightly inferior, it also directly shattered the small whirlwind. She looked at the Princess of the County with a smile:
“Why I’m here doesn’t matter”
"The important thing is what the Princess did here not long ago."
"you"
The princess's face changed.
No matter what happened inside, I decided to kill him immediately:
"How dare a lowly person like you talk back to me? You're courting death!"
Strike first to gain the upper hand.
There was a humming sound inside the Princess' body, and a treasure seal whizzed out. The seal was engraved with a phoenix rune and three Tiangang prohibitions were engraved on it. It was obviously a magic weapon, and a spell was cast into it.
Tweet!
It was like the cry of a phoenix.
next moment.
A phoenix appeared, flapping its wings, and swung its claws in the air, grabbing Liu Meizhen's crown.
Once this is put into practice.
There is absolutely no possibility for Liu Meizhen to survive.
however.
Under this fatal attack.
There wasn't even a trace of fear on Liu Meizhen's face. She stood there motionless and glanced at the Princess Consort with deep meaning. A fierce look flashed across the Princess Consort's eyes. No matter what happened, she decided to kill this bitch first.
The other party is proficient in the forbidden area of the Prince's Mansion.
The reason for killing the opponent is also ready:
"Bitch, go to hell!"
The Princess's method changed.
The speed of the phoenix suddenly increased.
however.
After the phoenix's claws approached the three inches between Liu Meizhen's eyebrows, they could no longer move forward.
"How is this possible?!"
The opponent is only at the fifth level of Purple Mansion, and has not even reached the late stage of Purple Mansion. How can he resist the power of the magic weapon?
The princess increased her magic power.
next moment.
But a cold snort came from the inner secret room.
Followed by.
Tweet!
The phoenix screamed as it was torn into two halves alive. The princess' pupils shrank. At the same time, a recoil force fell on her. With a bang, her protective robes collapsed and the whole person was thrown directly onto the stone wall like a kite with a broken string.
Rumble!
The Princess was almost entirely embedded in the stone wall.
Open your mouth.
puff!
A mouthful of blood spurted out.
however.
At this moment, she didn't care about her own injuries, but looked at the inner secret room with horror.
