Chapter 1279 The sooner the better
There is no time to practice, and Xia Fan, who was in seclusion and recuperation, could not even notice the passage of time. When his soul recovered and came out of seclusion, he realized that more than three months had passed without realizing it.
The weather was getting colder at this time, and the earliest snow had fallen, but it was not heavy, so it completely melted in a few days.
When Xia Fan walked out of the quiet room, the first person he saw was not Fairy Yun Xi but the Qinglian Taoist Girl.
It seemed that she didn't expect Xia Fan would come out of seclusion at this time. The Qinglian Taoist Girl's face was a little surprised, and her mouth was slightly opened, looking very cute.
"What's your expression? Don't you want to see me?" Xia Fan reached out and scraped the nose of the Qinglian Taoist girl.
"Hmph." Qinglian Daoist Woman frowned and said, "If I hadn't been thinking about the meal you had promised for a long time, I wouldn't have wanted to see you."
"You, you." Xia Fan pointed at her and couldn't help laughing.
"Where is Yun Xi?" Xia Fan asked casually.
"Are you just thinking about her?" Qinglian Taoist girl said unhappily.
"Of course not. I am thinking about you too, but I just see you when I come out and naturally I don't think about you anymore." Xia Fan teased her with a smile.
The Qinglian Taoist girl was both happy and angry when she heard this, and glared at Xia Fan and said, "I really want to beat you up and vent my anger."
"Why am I offending you?" Xia Fan asked pretending to be confused.
"You want to go by yourself." Qinglian Daoist said angrily.
While the two were bickering, Xia Fan casually asked about the situation outside during his retreat.
But soon Xia Fan realized that he was really asking the wrong person.
Because the Qinglian Taoist girl didn't care much about these things, and at the same time, she and Fairy Yun Xi took turns to warn Xia Fan to protect the outside world, so she didn't know much about the changes in the external situation.
Xia Fan originally wanted to see Fairy Yunxi, but heard that she was in seclusion and recuperation, so he had to give up.
"Boss, you're finally getting better now. Otherwise, my heart would be hung up every day and I'd lose weight." The news of Xia Fan's departure from seclusion soon spread, but Liu Yulinglong was the first to come here.
In order to transport food and supplies, Liu Yulinglong has been staying in Moyun City. It is usually quite hard, but now it seems that he has gained a little weight.
"I'm fine with weight loss." Xia Fan smiled and patted his shoulder and said, "How is the battle now?"
"The Han Dynasty and the Great Sun Demon Kingdom are in a negotiation, so it has not been a fight for a long time." Liu Yulinglong said: "But my sister-in-law has been leading troops to guard the front line, closely monitoring the movements of the Great Sun Demon Kingdom, and not afraid of them playing tricks."
"Peace talks?" Xia Fan frowned and said, "Are you digging a hole?"
"We didn't dig it on our own initiative, but it was just a coincidence." Liu Yulinglong said the whole story and said, "We originally wanted to use our tricks, but we didn't expect that the ghosts and monsters in the capital would emerge."
"What is the emperor planning to deal with it?" Xia Fan asked.
"Call out a group, suppress one group, kill one group." Liu Yulinglong said with a smile: "He has been very upset by the civil and military ministers in the court who do not have the same heart as him. I think he wants to clean up most of them, and from then on, he can make arbitrary decision."
"Let him." Xia Fan nodded and said, "The Han Dynasty is his world, so we don't need to worry too much."
"Boss, has your injuries healed?" Liu Yulinglong looked up and down at Xia Fan and said, "Why do I think the aura on your body is far less powerful than before when you left the seclusion this time? Could it be that there are any hidden injuries on you that have not healed?"
"That's not." Xia Fan shook his head and said, "My strength is stronger than before. It is only a line away from the Dao Assessment Realm, so his aura begins to be restrained. It will be perfect when the slightest leakage is not revealed."
"So that's it." Liu Yulinglong felt relieved.
"Since we have been watching the fun recently, how is the battle between the Great Sun Demon Kingdom and the Tianyu Empire?" Xia Fan asked.
"It's so miserable." Liu Yulinglong said: "In the past three months, the total force of both sides has invested at least four million on the frontier. The battles are so lively. The cities, mountains, rivers, peaks, etc. within more than 5,000 miles on both sides of the border. Any place where it can fight has become a battlefield, and many places have been destroyed."
"I told my second brother that from the full war between the two sides to the present, the number of casualties on both sides has reached at least more than two million soldiers alone. Including the number of people affected, I am afraid that it will increase by more than seven or eight times."
"Are there any strong masters in the war?" Xia Fan asked.
"Yes." Liu Yulinglong nodded and said, "The two sides were evenly matched and fought fiercely. Because they exploded a river, they caused floods and drowned many people from the Tianyu Empire."
"Who has the upper hand now?" Xia Fan asked.
"The Tianyu Empire has a little over the top." Liu Yulinglong said: "The weather is getting colder now, and the battles on both sides are not as frequent as before. A few days ago, my sister-in-law and I discussed with me and the second child whether to add a fire to them to make them fight more intensely."
Xia Fan asked, and Liu Yulinglong answered, and soon let Xia Fan understand about the general trend of the world during his retreat.
In addition to the war between the Three Kingdoms, there are still endless battles on the grasslands now.
Ying Wudi summoned the troops and began to compete with Ying Potian for control of the grassland.
Originally, Ying Wudi had weaker personal strength and influence, but Ying Potian's defeat in the previous war against the Han Dynasty also greatly damaged his reputation.
Many tribes that originally surrendered to him began to sway left and right, and some even defected to Eagle Invincible.
This has also caused the situation to gradually change, so that now, the one who has the advantage on the grassland has become invincible rather than the eagle breaking the sky.
"Did the Han Dynasty secretly support Ying Wudi?" Xia Fan asked.
"I want to support it, but Ying Wudi didn't agree." Liu Yulinglong said with a smirk: "But Ying Wudi did not refuse the things we sent."
"This guy Ying Wudi is really good." Xia Fan shook his head and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Although Emperor Jingping is also a fellow disciple of Ying Wudi, Ying Wudi would rather ask for Xia Fan than Emperor Jing Ping's things. This is not just a matter of face, but also some other considerations.
Xia Fan could figure out the idea of Ying Wudi, but he was too lazy to tell it.
The relationship between the grassland and the Han Dynasty has always been very complicated. It is really not something that can be explained in a few words, nor can it be solved by one person or a few people. Xia Fan was too lazy to get involved in this matter, so let Ying Wudi and Emperor Jingping both argue with him.
Then Xia Fan went to meet Master Zao, Mu Sheng and Jian Wuqing again. When he learned that the people from the three sects had completely evacuated from the world of the multi-arm tribe, he was also happy.
"Don't rush to leave, I have something important to ask you." Seeing Xia Fan saying goodbye and leaving, Master Bao quickly stopped him.
"What's the matter? It's so important, and it's worth your own words?" Xia Fan asked with a smile.
It really surprised Xia Fan, who was familiar with him, was able to make Mr. Baek, who had always had a hot temper and was easily unwilling to owe others favors.
"Didn't you say that if you want to break through to the next level, you should have a world?" asked Master Bao.
Xia Fan nodded. He did say something similar, it was three or four months ago.
"I have been worrying about this recently, but the heaven pays off. I really found a great target." When Mr. Baku said this, his face was full of joy, but his eyes were filled with gleam, and he looked eager to try.
"Who?" Xia Fan asked with a smile: "It's not a cultivator, right? You have to be more at ease, so as not to lose your reputation."
"Stop talking nonsense. I, the dignified Master Baku, is a well-known figure. How could I steal the people from my fellow disciples for such a small matter?" Master Baku was immediately angry and said righteously.
Xia Fan smiled and was too lazy to argue with him. It is definitely true that Master Bao is good at being a good man, but if you say that stealing the world is a trivial matter, you will definitely say that you don’t believe it after hearing it.
Why did Mr. Baku ask for help from him? He even owed favors for this? Xia Fan could figure it out after thinking about it for a moment. It must be that his so-called goal was not so easy to deal with.
Otherwise, the strength of the Bing Shen Sect itself is not weak and there are many strong people. At the same time, it can also ask Dan Sect and Yi Jian Sect for help. There is no reason and I have to be favored with a favor and specially invited him over.
But if you see through this kind of thing and don’t tell it thoroughly, everyone can still be friends, so Xia Fan smiled and waited for Mr. Baku to explain in detail.
"We are not outsiders, and I don't hide it from you. The world I want to seize is in the hands of a Supreme Elder with a late-stage power in the Fire Demon Sect." Mr. Bao said embarrassedly: "If it is an ordinary demon-cultivation sect, it can be easily destroyed by my Sword and Divine Sect family, but the Fire Demon Sect will be a little difficult to deal with."
"How do you know that the Supreme Elder has the world in his hands?" Xia Fan said in wonder.
"I've been in seclusion these days. I've been idle and wandered around the Great Sun Demon Kingdom. I happened to meet this old guy and fought with him." Mr. Baku said hatefully, "If this guy hadn't had the power of the world, would I lose to him? I must have given this tone."
"I understand." Xia Fan suddenly realized.
Mr. Baku said it simply, but Xia Fan could imagine that Mr. Baku must have suffered a lot of losses. Mr. Baku, who can make him face, admit that he lost, which means that he lost at that time must be much worse than what he said.
In fact, this is not surprising. A late-stage strong man in the Grandmaster realm is already quite powerful, and with the power of the world, it would be even more terrifying. It is definitely not very strange that Master Blast is crushed.
"When are you going to do this?" Xia Fan looked at Master Bao and asked.
"Do you have no objection?" Master Bao didn't expect Xia Fan to not object, but instead was a little stunned and said, "Are you afraid of triggering a war between cultivators and demon cultivators?"
"I might have had some concerns in the past, but now I won't." Xia Fan smiled and said, "At the time when the Great Sun Demon Kingdom wanted to attack the Great Han Dynasty, now they are afraid that the Great Han Dynasty will take action. If the demon cultivators really want to start a war, then fight. Maybe the Great Sun Demon Kingdom will completely become a kingdom because of this."
