"Indeed!"

Chen Yuan uttered these two words with a calm gaze.

Zhao Danqing, however, frowned deeply, his heart filled with shock. After all, this news was simply too astonishing and too unbelievable to be true.

Who was the Prince of Zhennan, Nangong Lie?

One of the two heter姓 princes of the Great Jin Dynasty, famed alongside the Prince of Beiliang, Wei Jinfeng. He was among the most powerful figures in the realm, commanding hundreds of thousands of elite troops.

For over two hundred years, he had independently governed a state, his name resounding with prestige!

He might not be overly surprised if others were to betray the human race and submit to the demon race, but Nangong Lie… Zhao Danqing found it difficult to believe this claim.

He looked directly at Chen Yuan and said:

"Lord Chen, this matter is of utmost importance. There must be no mistake."

"Does Sect Leader Zhao believe that Chen is slandering Nangong Lie?"

"This… It's just that this humble Taoist finds it hard to believe. Besides that boy’s sorcery, is there any other evidence?"

"Has Sect Leader Zhao ever seen Nangong Lie's true form?"

"Naturally." Zhao Danqing nodded slightly.

He was the Sect Leader of Biyou Palace, and Nangong Lie was the Prince of Zhennan, who governed Nanzhou. Even if Biyou Palace was reclusive, they still had to interact with him. His impression of this person was not extremely profound, but he remembered him well.

"If Sect Leader Zhao were to watch today's imagery again, would you be able to recognize him?"

"You…" Zhao Danqing took a deep breath, realizing that Chen Yuan had left a contingency plan.

Without hesitation, Chen Yuan took out the prepared memory stone and placed it in front of him. Then, with a flick of his finger, the image of the black-robed man fighting him appeared vividly.

"After discovering this person's true form today, I left a measure and captured this segment of the image. Sect Leader Zhao can observe it."

Watching the figure on the image, Zhao Danqing fell into deep thought.

If no one had mentioned it, he naturally wouldn't associate it with the Prince of Zhennan, Nangong Lie. However, once he had that preconceived notion, he found that the black-robed man in the image did indeed possess some of Nangong Lie's demeanor.

One's identity could be concealed, one's cultivation could be suppressed, and one's moves could be hidden, but the trace of aura and movements inadvertently revealed could not be faked.

He watched intently, focusing his mind, while Chen Yuan continued:

"The trickiness of this person is not limited to these. I believe Sect Leader Zhao can also sense that this black-robed man was holding back when fighting you, restraining his strength.

Why? This was clearly a battle to the death. Why did he hide and reserve his strength? Because… once he used all his strength, his identity would be recognized!"

He asked and answered himself, as if giving an explanation.

Hearing this, Zhao Danqing took a deep breath and remained silent.

But Chen Yuan continued:

"Before, when Chen was chasing and killing the fox killed by today’s Taoist priest for thousands of miles in Nanzhou, Nangong Lie intervened when I was about to succeed. From that time on, I felt that something was wrong. When I discovered his true form today, I also understood the key point. It was clear that Nangong Lie had already submitted to the demon race of the Southern Border!"

"Unbelievable…" Zhao Danqing let out a long breath. After watching the image again, coupled with Chen Yuan's words, he basically believed this matter, and solemnly said: “…A traitor of the human race, everyone has the right to punish him!”

"That's right, this kind of traitor who sells out the interests of the human race should have his entire family executed! If it weren't for the Realm-Breaking Pearl he took out today, those demon saints would definitely not have been able to break through the gate formation of Mount Shu so easily."

"This humble Taoist just doesn't understand. He already has immense power and occupies a region. Why would he betray the human race? Hasn't two hundred years been enough for him to hate the demon race?"

Zhao Danqing frowned, his words carrying a hint of murderous intent.

Chen Yuan shook his head:

"Taoist priest is wrong. It is true that Nangong Lie has immense power and occupies Nanzhou, but after all, he is only trapped in one state. The precedent of the Prince of Beiliang, Wei Jinfeng, fighting against the Northern Barbarians is right in front of him. How could he trust the imperial court? Moreover, he must have great ambitions in doing so.

He wants to leave Nanzhou, occupy the world, or use the demon race to comprehend a higher level of rules and enter the Half-Immortal Realm! Furthermore… Since the Demon-Slaying War five hundred years ago, the Southern Border demon race has been accumulating strength and has not violated the human border, which is completely different from Liangzhou."

Everyone knew that the Prince of Zhennan, Nangong Lie, had less pressure than the Prince of Beiliang, Wei Jinfeng. The Barbarian race rarely launched wars, but they invaded the border every year, and had long forged a bloody feud with the soldiers and civilians of Liangzhou.

But Nanzhou was different. Hundreds of years were enough to wipe out most of the grievances.

"Lord Chen is right." Zhao Danqing closed his eyes. Those in power are ultimately different from their Jianghu forces. The first thing they consider is profit.

For profit, betraying the human race was not impossible.

"But why didn't Lord Chen expose him at that time?" Zhao Danqing opened his eyes, a glint of light flashing across his eyes, and looked calmly at Chen Yuan opposite him.

And his answer was:

"Cannot expose him, at least not now!"

"What do you mean?"

"Perhaps the Taoist priest thinks that as long as his identity is exposed, the heroes of the world will rise up and destroy this traitor of the human race. But… sometimes we must consider deeper things."

"You mean?"

Zhao Danqing frowned.

"The reason why Nangong Lie does not fully display his strength is because he wants to continue to hide his identity and use this identity to temporarily conceal himself. But once exposed, Nangong Lie will inevitably be shocked and angry. Under the criticism of the heroes of the world, he will definitely completely submit to the demon race. Once he orders the border to be abandoned, a million demon soldiers will press the border and merge with his army. How terrifying is that power? "

"More than a million troops, plus many powerful demon race, and even a sixth-level demon god personally comes to Nanzhou. How can the current situation in the Central Plains resist?

At that time, not to mention Nanzhou, I am afraid that Shuzhou, Xuezhou, and even Qingzhou, may fall in a very short time, and hundreds of millions of human people will be trampled by iron hooves and become slaves and blood food of the demon race. Even just thinking about that scene, you can know its horror. It will be the darkest moment for the human race in thousands of years."

Chen Yuan said every word in a deep voice.

Hearing this, Zhao Danqing frowned even more tightly. He understood the meaning of these words. Thinking carefully, once the Prince of Zhennan was forced to rebel, such things would definitely happen.

The current imperial court is not the former Great Chu Dynasty. It can raise a million troops, and several immortal sects can crusade against the demon race of the Southern Border, directly forcing them back tens of thousands of miles, and not daring to look north for hundreds of years. The world is peaceful for a long time now. Although strong people emerge in large numbers, no sixth-level figure has appeared in the world in these hundreds of years. Mount Shu has declined, and Biyou Palace has also declined compared to the past.

I don’t know the situation of the several major demon sects in Xuezhou, but I guess it will not be too good. Relying solely on the mobilization power of the South, without a figure appearing to take the lead, it is difficult to resist the demon race’s offensive.

As for the current imperial court, it is impossible to rely on it at all!

The Sima family has gained the country unjustly, their strength is average, but they are only stronger than the immortal sect by a line. Several True Lords can make a big disturbance in the imperial city, so it is impossible to rely on them.

Furthermore, the precedent of Liangzhou not long ago was to deliberately delay time and not send reinforcements. If it were not for Chen Yuan and Wudang Mountain to turn the tide, the entire Liangzhou would have been lost.

The style of the Sima family has already made many Jianghu forces feel chilled, and they cannot be relied on at all.

It can be said that Nangong Lie's rebellion is definitely adding fuel to the fire under the current turmoil in the Central Plains, making it difficult for him to grasp.

Biyou Palace is in Nanzhou. Once the demon race enters the country, Biyou Palace, which once had a history of crusading against the demon race, will inevitably be the first to be attacked.

Today's situation of Mount Shu will probably be ten times worse for Biyou Palace in the future.

However, he suppressed all the thoughts in his heart and continued to ask:

"Isn't it possible to just sit back and watch Nangong Lie's rebellion? Even if he is not exposed, I am afraid that the situation of the demon race pressing the border cannot be avoided one day."

He wanted to see Chen Yuan's answer. The other party had specially transmitted the message to him, and there must be other plans.

"Naturally, I will not let Nangong Lie really enjoy peace forever. From the day he rebelled against the human race, his destruction was doomed, but... Chen needs time, no need for much, half a year is enough!"

Chen Yuan raised his head and said firmly.

"Oh?"

Zhao Danqing narrowed his eyes and looked at Chen Yuan with a slightly scrutinizing look.

"Chen Yuan has risen from the humble, and it has only been two and a half years since now. Half a year is enough for me to break through the Yangshen realm. Now, the entire Daoshen Palace is supporting me. I have more than 100,000 soldiers under my command and control the entire Shuxi area. Shu is just my bag. Just now, Taoist Lingxu has also stated that he will fully support Chen.

Give me half a year to practice and integrate all the forces. After that, I will kill Nangong Lie, the Prince of Zhennan, and seize his military power. I will personally guard the border for the human race!"

Chen Yuan's words were loud and powerful, and his aura was extraordinary.

"It seems that Lord Chen is determined to rebel." Zhao Danqing, like the five elders of Mount Shu, was not surprised by Chen Yuan's rebellion.

After all, Daoshen Palace is specially opposed to the imperial court. Chen Yuan, as the leader of Daoshen Palace, must have had such thoughts for a long time. Moreover, Taixu Palace had already bet on him before, and the rebellion was obvious.

"It's not a rebellion, it's to seek eternal peace for hundreds of millions of people in the Central Plains. The Sima family is not worthy of sitting on the throne of supremacy. Even without me, there will be others."

"Hehe..."

Zhao Danqing smiled faintly and did not respond.

"For more than two hundred years, the actions of the Sima family have been known to the world, and they can be said to have completely lost the hearts of the people. Today, the world situation is about to rise, and turmoil is about to come. In the north, there are barbarians who knock on the door every year, wanting to turn the human race of the Central Plains into a horse farm. In the west, there is Lingshan preaching in the Central Plains, wanting to cross the human race of the Central Plains forever and enshrine Lingshan. In the east, there are overseas Japanese slaves eyeing covetously, swallowing the world. In the south, there are hundreds of tribes in the Southern Border who have been accumulating strength for five hundred years, preparing to enslave my human race in the Central Plains and turn them into blood food.

The Central Plains is not peaceful either. Forces from all sides are surging. All the major immortal sects, remnants of the previous dynasty, and heroes of the Jianghu all want to feast on this grand feast.

The Sima family is unable to resist these dangers and will not fight to the death for the human race. Although Chen is incompetent, he also has some strength and a passionate heart. I am willing to create eternal peace for my human race.

Daoshen Palace, Taixu Palace, Mount Shu Immortal Sect, and many forces in Shuzhou will support me. Now, the South is in danger, and the demon race may break into the country and break through the border at any time, which is the most dangerous moment. Therefore... Chen hopes that Sect Leader Zhao will consider for the sake of the human race and for the safety of Biyou Palace, come to the world again and assist me in establishing the world!"

Chen Yuan once again started his speech, which was similar to the previous ones in Qingyun Temple and Taiji Hall, just to bring another immortal sect into the group and expand his strength.

Mount Shu suppresses Shuzhou, Biyou Palace suppresses Nanzhou, plus Taixu Palace and Daoshen Palace, Chen Yuan will become the most powerful force in the troubled times, and he will be able to gain more opportunities in the future.

"Lord Chen's words are very good. If this humble Taoist does not agree, I am afraid that he will be a sinner of the human race." Zhao Danqing suddenly chuckled.

"Sect Leader Zhao is serious, Chen has no intention of this, and Chen will not force it if Biyou Palace is unwilling."

"Helping you is okay, but what benefits can Biyou Palace get in the future? Let's be frank, Lord Chen might as well talk about it first."

Having lived for hundreds of years, almost all of them are veterans, how could they change their minds because of a passionate speech? Mount Shu and Taixu Palace are the same.

Taixu Palace took the wrong path of seclusion for hundreds of years, which led to a serious decline in its strength. It had to plan for the future and return to the glory of the immortal sect in the past.

Mount Shu was attacked by the demon race once, and they were a little worried, and wanted to pull in a strong ally, and by the way, make plans for the future. As for Biyou Palace, the current situation is actually similar to that of Mount Shu.

It was precisely because he saw this that Chen Yuan was able to win over Mount Shu and Taixu Palace, and he would specially transmit the sound to Zhao Danqing, asking him to stay and talk for a while.

Chen Yuan stretched out two fingers and said in a condensed voice:

"First, once the demon race is pressed, Biyou Palace, which is located in Nanzhou, will definitely be the first to be retaliated against. I think Sect Leader Zhao himself is also clear about this.

Secondly, what Chen says now is just empty words, but I can promise that if there is a day when the world is established, Biyou Palace will be the state religion. As long as there is no rebellion, as long as I am here, Biyou Palace will last forever!"

State religion... or state religion!

Chen Yuan's promise is almost the same as that of Mount Shu. If other immortal sects join in the future, it will be the same, after all, who said that there can only be one state religion?

This is not to trick them.

Now it is just a promise to each other. In the future, whoever contributes more and who leaves midway, these credits will be recorded, and the time for rewarding merits will be the last.

Zhao Danqing let out a long breath, hesitated for a moment, and said:

"This matter is of great importance, and this humble Taoist cannot make a decision on his own. I will seriously discuss this matter after I go back. Can Lord Chen give me some time?" "This is natural, but this matter..."

"Don't worry, Lord Chen, this humble Taoist can promise that he will never leak it out."

Zhao Danqing said in a deep voice.

"Okay, then Chen will be waiting for Sect Leader Zhao's good news."

Chen Yuan understood that Biyou Palace still wanted to wait and see, and might also go to investigate Nangong Lie's details before making a decision.

But this is not false. Chen Yuan is sure that Biyou Palace has a high probability of supporting him in the future. Of course, the first thing is that Chen Yuan develops well.

There is a real hope of establishing the world, otherwise, Biyou Palace will not bet easily.

After all, Biyou Palace is not the declining Taixu Palace, or Mount Shu Immortal Sect that has been targeted by the demon race. External troubles are currently only possible, and once he supports his rebellion, if he really fails, even if Biyou Palace is not destroyed, the inheritance of the Millennium Immortal Sect may suffer heavy losses. It is indeed not an easy decision to make.

"Okay..."

After Zhao Danqing changed the topic and asked carefully about some things in Shuzhou, Chen Yuan did not hide too much, and it was also deliberately showing his strength.

If you want to rebel, if you don't have any strength, no one dares to bet.

Although this conversation was not as smooth as that in the Taiji Hall, it also laid the foundation. Chen Yuan could feel that Zhao Danqing had actually been persuaded.

It can also be called a pleasant conversation.

After that, Zhao Danqing bid farewell to the five elders of Mount Shu and left.

At this time, the Jianghu forces from all sides also learned the inside story of the Mount Shu battle in the shortest time, which immediately caused a shock that was no less than that of the Liangshan battle.

Seven demon race great saints, one human race traitor, a total of eight demon saint battle strengths, Mount Shu gathered six True Lords and resisted this pressure.

In the end, it also aroused the fight between the demon god and the sword immortal, and almost broke the Mount Shu blessed land. How could it not be shocking?

The impact of this battle was like a hurricane, sweeping across the states of the Central Plains, and on the second day, it completely caused an extraordinary sensation.

The demon race, which had been dormant for five hundred years, finally took action, and as soon as they took action, they aimed at the Central Plains Immortal Sect and sent out such powerful strength. If Mount Shu was not deeply rooted, it would probably have been destroyed.

The Demon Suppressing Tower was destroyed, three demon saints fell, the God Void True Human of one of the five elders of Mount Shu was destroyed, and the demon race's treasure Demon Emperor Bell was smashed. Daoshen Palace and Biyou Palace stood on the unified front with Mount Shu.

One thing after another can cause extremely huge shocks, and if they are added together, the shock has even surpassed the Liangshan battle not long ago.

As for the main reason, it is that the demon race declared war on the Central Plains, and the sixth-level confrontation, and the destruction of the immortal soldiers...

The secondary reason is that the always mysterious Daoshen Palace actually joined forces with Mount Shu to resist the enemy, and Biyou Palace also got involved, which can't help but make people suspect that they have some kind of alliance in secret.

In addition, it is the destruction of Mount Shu and the fact that a traitor True Lord appeared in the human race. This was also Chen Yuan's instruction to secretly create momentum and reveal Nangong Lie's identity in one fell swoop and righteously kill him.

Many people are indignantly guessing who the traitor is, and they can't wait to kill his whole family and destroy his nine clans. After all, since ancient times, the human and demon races have been incompatible.

Even if there has been no movement for five hundred years, the current foreign invasion will arouse the idea of ​​shared hatred.

The hurricane of the Mount Shu battle quickly blew through the entire Shuzhou and swept towards Nanzhou, Qingzhou, and other states and prefectures in the Central Plains. Those powerful forces from all sides only learned about it one step ahead.

The subsequent impact is what truly swept the world.

Its momentum can be called the strongest in the past 100 years.

It surpassed the Liangshan Battle, the Liangzhou Battle, and the more distant Zhongzhou Imperial City Battle. The impact can be called huge, and the Jianghu martial artists are also talking about it.
