The First Marquis of Daxuan

The Night Owl Guard appeared openly in the Dragon Palace of the South China Sea, which was indeed somewhat beyond Su Mu's expectations.

Before this, even when they were forced to show up by Su Mu, they were still secretive about their identities.

The Night Owl Guard was originally a secret army, hiding in the darkness since its establishment.

They are used to being in the dark and are not used to appearing in public within people's field of vision.

But this time, they actually showed their flags and appeared openly in the Dragon Palace of the South China Sea.

This is tantamount to making a formal appearance before the world.

From then on, everyone knew that Daxuan had such a Night Owl Guard composed entirely of powerful people in the fusion realm!
In an instant, Su Mu understood Night Owl Guard's plan.

Appear in public.

As long as the Taiping Division has not openly rebelled against Daxuan, nothing can be done to the Night Owl Guards.

The same goes for the Nanhai Sect.

The Night Owl Guards came to the Dragon Palace in the South China Sea to watch the ceremony. If anything unexpected happened, the South China Sea Sect would have to take full responsibility.

Emperor Xuan could even use this as an excuse to directly extend his hand into the Nanhai Sect or even the Taiping Division.

Conspiracy.

This is the conspiracy of the Night Owl Guards.

It was exactly the same as what Su Mu had done before.

The methods that were once used against others are now being used against oneself.

Su Mu also had a strange feeling in his heart.

Because the Night Owl Guards had made several stupid moves before, Su Mu thought they were a group of warriors who only knew how to kill and had no brains.

This time, they got smarter.

"Daxuan's Night Owl Guard?"

Zhang Xuanying showed a look of vigilance on his face, and his body tensed involuntarily.

Su Mu looked at the other person strangely.

Who is this guy?
He's just a Night Owl Guard, why is he so nervous?

Su Mu forgot that it was the Night Owl Guard who came.

With dozens of Night Owl Guards at the Fusion Realm, who wouldn't be nervous?

Facing dozens of powerful fusion realm masters, the only ones who could remain calm were probably Su Mu and Li Quan, the Dragon King of the South China Sea.

Su Mu is confident.

As for Li Quan, the Dragon King of the South China Sea, Su Mu didn't know whether he was confident or just blindly self-confident.

"Dragon King, the guests are welcome. Why don't you invite them in?"

Su Mu temporarily put Zhang Xuanying aside.

Compared with the Night Owl Guard, Zhang Xuanying is just a minor illness and can be killed with a slap at any time.

Night Owl Guard suddenly came to his senses and decided that he still had to be cautious in his response.

After all, there are dozens of powerful people in the fusion realm.

Su Mu was also reminding Li Quan, the Dragon King of the South China Sea.

Remind him not to act rashly.

Even if Li Quan really has the ability to kill all the Night Owl Guards, now is not a good time to do so.

The Night Owl Guards made such a big fuss that too many people saw their arrival.

If Li Quan killed them at this time, it would undoubtedly give Emperor Xuan an excuse.

Emperor Xuan was worried that he had no way to destroy the Taiping Division in a fair and open manner.

This gave him an excuse, and he was afraid that it would not be long before all the troops of Daxuan would descend on the three states of Lingnan.

With the current strength of the Taiping Division and the Nanhai Sect, there is no way they can compete with the might of the Daxuan Nation.

Although Li Quan, the Dragon King of the South China Sea, hated Emperor Xuan deeply, he also knew that if he took action against the Night Owl Guards now, he would drag the South China Sea Sect into an abyss from which there would be no recovery.

The Night Owl Guard's strategy was indeed very clever.

Just like they had to participate in the public trial organized by Su Mu.

Now, Li Quan, the Dragon King of the South China Sea, had no choice but to invite them into the Dragon Palace to watch the ceremony.

"Open the door and welcome the guests!"

Li Quan, the Dragon King of the South China Sea, shouted loudly.

"Dragon King, you——"

Zhang Xuanying was shocked and angry, "Do you know what the Night Owl Guards are?
They are the secret power in the hands of Emperor Xuan!
If they enter the Dragon Palace, your head will be hanging under their knife!

Don’t let them in!”

"You are not the Dragon King yet."

Li Quan, the Dragon King of the South China Sea, said calmly, "If you want to issue orders, you'd better wait until you become the Dragon King first.

The Nanhai Sect has never violated the law, and the Night Owl Guards will not do anything to us.

Besides, this is Dragon Palace."

A hint of pride flashed across the face of Li Quan, the Dragon King of the South China Sea.

"Don't you want to be the Dragon King? Open your eyes and see what the Dragon King is."

After saying this, Li Quan, the Dragon King of the South China Sea, has already stepped forward.

A look of admiration appeared on Su Mu's face.

This Li Quan is indeed a character. No wonder he could lead the Nanhai Sect to its current level. Even Han Jieren used to be subservient to him.

If Li Quan hadn't been trapped in love, it probably wouldn't have been so easy for someone to replace him.

Zhang Xuanying's face turned pale and blue after being retorted by Li Quan, the Dragon King of the South China Sea.

His teeth were chattering, and he hated Li Quan and Su Mu in his heart.

"Today you two embarrassed me, one day I will repay you a hundredfold!"

Zhang Xuanying hated secretly in his heart.

"Young Master, the Night Owl Guards suddenly appeared in the Dragon Palace. Could they be coming for us?"

Han Jieren said in a low voice, feeling a little nervous.

Others don't know Zhang Xuanying's identity, but Han Jieren knows it clearly.

Otherwise he would not have chosen to join Zhang Xuanying.

That's why he was so nervous.

If Ye Xiaowei knew Zhang Xuanying's identity, would Ye Xiaowei let him go?

The Night Owl Guards had appeared in Lihuo City before. Anyone with a little status in the three states of Lingnan knew that the Night Owl Guards were an army composed entirely of powerful warriors in the fusion realm.

Although Han Jieren was confident, he did not think he had the ability to deal with such an army.

Even if Zhang Xuanying is added, it still won’t be enough.

"impossible."

Zhang Xuanying's face was gloomy, and he said coldly, "Now you are the only one who knows my identity here. Unless you betray me, the Night Owl Guards will never know my identity!"

He turned to look at Han Jieren, his eyes flashing dangerously.

"How could I possibly betray the young master?"

Han Jieren said quickly, "Master, you and I are in the same boat. What good will it do me to betray you?"

"Humph."

Henry Zhang snorted coldly, “It’s good that you know.

If you dare to betray me, even if I can't deal with the Night Owl Guards for the time being, it will be easy to kill you."

"will not."

Han Jieren said.

"Since you didn't betray me, the Night Owl Guards couldn't be coming for me."

Henry Zhang responded, “They should be here just to watch the ceremony.

After all, the Nanhai Sect is the top force in Zhuya Prefecture. The old and new South China Sea Dragon Kings are taking over. Unless Emperor Xuan is a fool, he will definitely not turn a blind eye to it.

He sent people to watch the ceremony in order to let the Nanhai Sect know who is in charge of this land."

Henry Zhang analyzed with confidence.

Han Jieren curled his lips slightly.

Zhuya Prefecture is thousands of miles away from the capital of Daxuan. Emperor Xuan is probably still unaware of the news that the Nanhai Sect has changed its leader.

Even if he knew, this kind of thing would definitely not be a big deal for the dignified Lord of Great Xuan, so why would he specially send the Night Owl Guards?
Does the imperial court still need to prove its strength to the Nanhai Sect?
In Daxuan, no matter how big a sect is, it must bow down and obey the imperial court.

Didn’t powerful places like the Divine Weapon Pavilion and the Treasure Artifact Workshop disappear just like that?
As for the Sword Sect, it can only survive under the protection of the Taiping Division.

Anyone who dares to underestimate the imperial court will pay an unimaginable price.

Even the Taiping Division was forced to the three Lingnan prefectures by the imperial court. How bold did the Nanhai Sect have to challenge the imperial court?
Zhang Xuanying really underestimated the power of the imperial court.

Han Jieren's eyes flickered, and for a moment he was a little doubtful. Is the backer he chose really reliable?
After a moment, he shook his head and threw these thoughts out of his mind.

Zhang Xuanying may be unreliable, but the forces behind him are absolutely reliable.

"Why are you shaking your head? Do you think my analysis is wrong?"

Henry Zhang looked at Han Jieren with an unfriendly look and spoke.

"of course not."

Han Jieren said, "I think that if they dare to go against you, young master, they would be overestimating their own abilities."

"It's not that exaggerated."

Zhang Xuanying's eyes were full of joy, and he waved his hand pretending to be indifferent, saying, "The Night Owl Guards are numerous and powerful. If we really fight, I may not be their opponent.

But it's just that I didn't bring any guards with me, otherwise the Night Owl Guards wouldn't be that scary."

"Anyway, the Night Owl Guards aren't coming for us, Young Master. I think we should just wait and see what happens, and not bother with them for now."

Han Jieren took the opportunity to persuade, "Our top priority is to take control of the Nanhai Sect first."

"That's it."

Zhang Xuanying said, “Old Han, you should control the formation of the Dragon Palace.

Although I will not take the initiative to provoke the Night Owl Guards, if they want to prevent me from ascending the throne of Dragon King, then we don't have to be polite to them.

The old man is right, this is the Dragon Palace, and the Dragon King has the final say on everything."

Han Jieren was speechless. It was okay for the old Dragon King to say such things, but what gave you the right?

Your background can't scare the Night Owl Guards.

Even if you can ascend to the throne of Dragon King, it will take some time to fully master the power of the Nanhai Sect.

However, he didn't dare to say this directly to Zhang Xuanying. He could only secretly make up his mind to find a way to completely seize control of the Dragon Palace formation from the Dragon King.

Only by thoroughly mastering the formation of the Dragon Palace can you ensure that everything is under control.

As for whether he can master the formation of Dragon Palace, Han Jieren is still confident.

The Dragon King of the South China Sea is not a formation practitioner, he only knows how to use formations. But in terms of understanding of Dragon Palace formations, who else in the South China Sea Sect besides Han Jieren?
He, Han Jieren, is the only formation master in Nanhai Sect!
There were some formation cultivators in Tingchao Pavilion back then, but those guys are all gone now, leaving only the useless Xu Yu.

In other words, no one in the Nanhai Sect could stop Han Jieren from mastering the Dragon Palace Formation.

With the Dragon Palace formation in place, even if Zhang Xuanying really clashed with the Night Owl Guards, he could attack or defend.

Han Jieren said hello to Zhang Xuanying and left in a hurry to find a way to control the formation of the Dragon Palace.

Zhang Xuanying mixed in the crowd and followed the South China Sea Dragon King Li Quan, Su Mu and others to the main hall of the Dragon Palace.

Led by Suzaku, White Tiger and Black Tortoise, the Night Owl Guards have entered the Dragon Palace.

Su Mu took a quick glance and counted the number of Night Owl Guards.

Sixty-nine fifty-four people.

Fifty-four Night Owl Guards.

During the heyday of the Night Owl Guard, there were a total of one hundred and eight powerful men in the Fusion Realm.

They had suffered successive losses before, with heavy casualties.

But even so, there are still more than seventy Night Owl Guards.

Even if there have been losses in recent days, there shouldn't be only fifty-four left.

It seems that Night Owl Guard has indeed grown up with brains.

Not all of them came to Dragon Palace, but left some people outside.

If these fifty-four Night Owl Guards died in the Dragon Palace, the remaining Night Owl Guards would be able to pass the message back immediately and at the same time attack the Nanhai Sect and the Taiping Division.

On the contrary, if they all came, and something unexpected happened and they were all killed at once, wouldn’t there be no one to pass the news to Emperor Xuan?
If the Nanhai Sect really has the power to annihilate them, then there is not much difference between fifty-four and sixty or seventy of them.

Although they felt that the Nanhai Sect did not have such power.

"Dragon King, we are so presumptuous to come and watch the ceremony. You won't blame us, right?"

Zhuque took the lead and came to the South China Sea Dragon King Li Quan. He forced an unnatural smile on his face and said, "I heard that the South China Sea Sect is going to select a new Dragon King. We happened to be nearby, so we are here in the name of Your Majesty to send a gift to the new Dragon King. At the same time, we are here to broaden our horizons and see how the new Dragon King was born."

Zhuque changed Night Owl Guard's previous arrogant character and appeared to be very easy-going and polite.

Although it is said that one should not hit a smiling person, Li Quan, the Dragon King of the South China Sea, still had a blank expression on his face.

"The ceremony of the new Dragon King's succession is an internal matter of our Nanhai Sect. No outsiders are invited to observe the ceremony."

Li Quan, the Dragon King of the South China Sea, said coldly.

"I appreciate your kindness, but please go back."

"If outsiders are not allowed to watch the ceremony, then Lord Su is also an outsider, right?"

Zhuque's eyes fell on Su Mu and he said meaningfully.

"Who said Su was here to watch the ceremony?"

Su Mu said calmly, "They are changing their lord, but Su Mu doesn't like to join in the fun.

Su is here just to save people."

"Really?"

Zhuque asked, "Then Master Su is preparing to leave?
If Lord Su leaves Dragon Palace, we will naturally be willing to leave with him. I, the Night Owl Guard, would like to hold a banquet in Fubo City to thank Lord Su for hosting us in Lihuo City."

"Of course, if Lord Su doesn't leave, Dragon King, can we ask for equal treatment and rest in the Dragon Palace for a few days?"

Zhuque looked at Li Quan, the Dragon King of the South China Sea, and said in a seemingly calm tone, "I think the Dragon King won't be partial to one and disparage the other, right?
No matter what, we, the Night Owl Guards, are here on behalf of His Majesty."

Although his tone was calm, the threat in his words was overwhelming.

Li Quan, the Dragon King of the South China Sea, sneered.

The Dragon King of the South China Sea said expressionlessly, "Lord Su is a distinguished guest of the Dragon Palace. This is only the second time I have met you all. We have never had any friendship, so how can I favor one over the other?
Besides, is a house sparrow worthy of being compared with a goshawk? "

As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere on the field dropped instantly.

It goes without saying who is the house sparrow and who is the goshawk.

The smile on Suzaku's face gradually froze, his eyes narrowed slightly, and an angry light flashed in his pupils.

He glanced at Su Mu and saw that Su Mu looked calm.

He felt a chill in his heart and forced himself to suppress his anger.

They didn't come here to fight with Su Mu and the others this time. If they fought because they were provoked by them, they would not be able to catch them even if they died.

We must never give them the opportunity to kill the Night Owl Guards with a legitimate reason!
"I don't know when the Dragon King learned these skills from the gossiping village woman."

Suzaku said slowly.

Zhuque was not the type to just accept things passively, so he immediately responded with sarcasm.

One mocked the other as a house sparrow, and the other mocked the other as a village woman.

Obviously, both of them are the strongest in the world, but they can't take action because of various concerns. As a result, they can only talk for pleasure. Su Mu was speechless.

Both sides are well aware that under the current circumstances, they cannot take direct action.

Since we can't take action, what's the point of arguing?
"Cough cough."

Su Mu coughed twice to attract everyone's attention, then he slowly said, "Let me say a few words.

Dragon King, the Night Owl Guards have come from thousands of miles away to watch the ceremony, so you shouldn’t turn them away.

No matter what others say, they come here specifically to give gifts.

Besides, their request is not excessive.

Give me some face and let them stay and learn more."

"Who do you think you are? Why should we give you face?"

Before Li Quan, the Dragon King of the South China Sea, could speak, Zhang Xuanying could not help but shout loudly.

If Night Owl Guard stays, how can he continue with his plan?
Can the formation of the South China Sea Dragon Palace deal with fifty-four powerful people in the fusion realm at the same time?

Zhang Xuanying would not want to have so many more opponents out of thin air.

Zhuque, Baihu, Xuanwu and others looked at Zhang Xuanying in surprise.

Where did this young man come from?
How dare someone speak to Su Mu like this?

Even when they faced Su Mu, they didn't dare to be so presumptuous, so he actually dared to question who Su Mu was?
I'm afraid even Your Majesty would not speak like this.

The eyes of all the Night Owl Guards fell on Su Mu, with an expression of watching the fun on their faces.

They were happy to see Su Mu embarrassed.

They were a little curious. When had Su Mu ever been insulted like this?
With Su Mu's temper, would he just explode and kill this guy?

This is the Dragon Palace of the South China Sea. If Su Mu suddenly kills someone, will the Dragon King of the South China Sea sit idly by and watch?
If the Dragon King of the South China Sea doesn't care, what will his subordinates think?
If the Dragon King of the South China Sea intervened, would he and Su Mu have a fight?
The Night Owl Guards were all a little surprised. Could it be that they had the opportunity to reap the benefits as soon as they arrived at the Dragon Palace in the South China Sea?

If Su Mu gets into a fight with the Dragon King of the South China Sea, wouldn't it be natural for them, the Night Owl Guards, to join in under the pretext of persuading them to stop fighting?

Swords have no eyes. In the process of trying to stop the fight, he accidentally beat Su Mu to death. Is this reasonable?

The Night Owl Guards looked at each other, all eager to try.

But to their disappointment, Su Mu did not get angry.

Su Mu didn't even look at Zhang Xuanying.

He just looked at Li Quan, the Dragon King of the South China Sea, calmly.

Li Quan, the Dragon King of the South China Sea, also ignored Zhang Xuanying.

No matter what Zhang Xuanying's background is, he is now just the deputy leader of the Chunfeng Gang and has no right to speak in the Nanhai Sect.

As for Li Quan himself.

He had just received the Nine Revolutions Ice Heart Pill from Su Mu.

Over the years, he has sought medical treatment from countless doctors, but no elixir has ever been effective for his wife's symptoms.

Although the Nine-Turn Ice Heart Pill could not cure his wife, after taking it, his wife's condition was obviously much better.

In this regard, he owed Su Mu a favor.

Moreover, if he could obtain Xuanming Heavy Water and Bai Ze’s Heart Blood from Zhang Xuanying, he would have to ask Su Mu to help him refine the elixir to cure his wife.

Li Quan, the Dragon King of the South China Sea, was not sure whether there was anyone else in the world who could refine this kind of elixir besides Su Mu.

Therefore, he cannot offend Su Mu now.

Not to mention it was just such a simple request, even if it was something else, he would have to agree.

"Since Lord Su has spoken, I will give you a favor."

Li Quan, the Dragon King of the South China Sea, said slowly, "You Night Owl Guards can stay and watch the ceremony, but during the ceremony, you must be careful with your words and actions and don't run around. Otherwise, if you violate any taboos, don't blame me for not reminding you."

Although they had obtained the permission from Li Quan, the Dragon King of the South China Sea, the Night Owl Guards showed no joy at all on their faces. Instead, they were all disappointed.

It was so disappointing that Nanhai Zong and Su Mu didn't have a fight.

"Dragon King, why do you let them stay?"

Seeing that he was ignored, Henry Zhang became furious and yelled at Li Quan, the Dragon King of the South China Sea.

Li Quan, the Dragon King of the South China Sea, glanced at the other party, and a hint of hidden disgust flashed in the depths of his eyes.

If it wasn't for the Xuanming heavy water and Bai Ze's hard work, how could he tolerate this guy yelling at him?
what!
"Because I am the Dragon King."

Li Quan, the Dragon King of the South China Sea, suppressed his temper and said slowly, "As long as I don't abdicate, I am still the Dragon King.

I have the final say on all matters in Dragon Palace.

If you want to be the boss, you have to wait until you become the Dragon King."

"you--"

Zhang Xuanying was furious, but he was powerless to refute.

He looked at the Nanhai Sect disciples around him.

He found that no one was willing to stand on his side.

The South China Sea Dragon King Li Quan has a very high prestige in the South China Sea Sect, and Zhang Xuanying——

The Nanhai Sect disciples didn't even know who he was.

On the surface, he is just a small deputy leader of the Chunfeng Gang. Who would take him seriously?

"Who do you think you are? Does the Dragon King need you to teach him how to do things?"

Suddenly, a voice sounded.

Then, a small hand as white as jade stretched out, pushed Zhang Xuanying away, and walked in front of everyone.

"you--"

Zhang Xuanying was furious and turned his head to look. After seeing who was coming, he was actually dazed for a moment.

The person who came was a pretty young girl with lively eyes and a rebellious demeanor.

Ao Qing and Xu Yu had arrived a long time ago, but they had never recognized Su Mu.

Just now, it heard that Zhang Xuanying dared to insult Su Mu, and it was already furious.

After finally getting the chance, it immediately used Zhang Xuanying's own words on Zhang Xuanying.

This sentence is not wrong. Who is the deputy leader of the Chunfeng Gang? How dare he speak nonsense to the commander of the Taiping Division?

"who are you?"

Zhang Xuanying's eyes flashed with something strange, staring at Ao Qing and asked.

Ao Qing glanced at him.

"I heard it clearly, Ao Qing, the deputy leader of Tingchao Pavilion."

Ao Qing said coldly, "If you are not convinced, I am ready to fight you anytime."

After Ao Qing transformed, his body looked petite and delicate, and no one could tell that his true form was a real dragon.

But beneath her petite and delicate figure lies the ferocious nature of a monster.

It has a bad temper at all.

Perhaps it would only restrain its temper a little in front of Su Mu.

Others are simply not taken seriously by it.

"Okay, I remember you."

A gleam of light flashed in Zhang Xuanying's eyes. He, the soon-to-be-appointed Dragon King, happened to be in need of a Dragon Queen.

This woman is nice, I like her.

Li Quan, the Dragon King of the South China Sea, looked at Ao Qing and frowned slightly.

Although on the surface it seemed that Ao Qing had just taken action for him and scolded Zhang Xuan for his disrespect to the Dragon King.

But Li Quan, the Dragon King of the South China Sea, was not happy at all.

Tingchao Pavilion, deputy pavilion master!
Li Quan, the Dragon King of the South China Sea, has been in charge of the Nanhai Sect for decades and knows every force under the Nanhai Sect like the back of his hand.

Tingchao Pavilion had been in decline for many years, and there was only one disciple left in the pavilion, named Xu Yu.

Xu Yu's qualifications are not high. Let alone revitalizing Tingchao Pavilion, he can't even maintain Tingchao Pavilion normally. On weekdays, he just makes a living by selling information at the Coral Ghost Market.

This information automatically appeared in the mind of Li Quan, the Dragon King of the South China Sea, when he heard the three words "Tingchao Pavilion".

Tingchao Pavilion, where did this deputy pavilion master come from?

Although for a small force like Tingchao Pavilion, the appointment of a deputy leader does not require the consent of the Dragon King of the South China Sea.

If such a small matter also requires the decision of the Dragon King of the South China Sea, wouldn't the Dragon King of the South China Sea be exhausted to death?

However, in theory, these matters still need to be reported to the Dragon Palace for record.

It is obvious that Ao Qing, the deputy leader of Tingchao Pavilion, is of the same kind as Zhang Xuanying, the deputy leader of Chunfeng Gang.

They are all monsters and demons trying to grab the throne of the Dragon King of the South China Sea!
Li Quan, the Dragon King of the South China Sea, had already been prepared for this situation.

However, he did not expect that the position of the Dragon King of the South China Sea would even attract powerful masters in the fusion realm.

Logically speaking, those who have reached the fusion realm are all famous throughout the world, and their identities are known to everyone. Even if they want to pretend to be disciples of the Nanhai Sect, no one will believe them.

But I didn’t expect that now there would appear two powerful people in the fusion realm who had never been heard of before.

Ao Qing, Zhang Xuanying!

The Dragon King of the South China Sea had never heard of these two people before.

Where on earth did these two powerful masters of the fusion realm come from?
Li Quan, the Dragon King of the South China Sea, frowned slightly, feeling as if things were out of control.

He now suddenly felt that it might not be a good choice for him to abdicate hastily.

Han Jieren rebelled, the Night Owl Guards came to watch the ceremony, and now two powerful fusion realm masters have appeared.

No one knows how many people are secretly coveting the position of Dragon King of the South China Sea.

Even Su Mu wanted to turn the Nanhai Sect into a vassal of the Taiping Division.

Can Li Quan really handle it?

Li Quan, the Dragon King of the South China Sea, felt under tremendous pressure. The previous thought involuntarily came to his mind again, and he subconsciously looked at Su Mu.

When you can’t handle the pressure by yourself, the best way is to find someone to share it with you.

"Sir Su, since the Night Owl Guards have stayed to watch the ceremony, I now formally invite you."

As his thoughts turned, the Dragon King of the South China Sea, Li Quan, said, "The old and new generations of the South China Sea Sect have been replaced, so please ask Lord Su to stay and be a witness.

Speaking of which, as the commander of the Taiping Division of the Three Lingnan Prefectures, Lord Su will inevitably have to deal with our Nanhai Sect in the future, so it is only natural for him to stay and witness the succession of the new Dragon King."

"I really wish for it, but I dare not ask for it."

Su Mu smiled slightly and agreed.

"Master Su, since we are all guests, I would like to borrow the Dragon Palace to invite you to have a drink. Would you be willing to do me the honor?"

Zhuque stared straight at Su Mu and said in a deep voice.

"The visitor is a guest."

Su Mu smiled faintly, "Su is in charge of the three states in Lingnan, so I am considered a half-landlord in Zhuya State.

Since Lord Suzaku is so interested, I can still afford to treat you to some wine."

…………

Li Quan, the Dragon King of the South China Sea, felt that he owed Su Mu a favor, and that he would need Su Mu's help in the future, so he would naturally not refuse Su Mu's request.

He directly arranged a palace for Su Mu to entertain guests, and provided them with fine wine and delicious food.

When only Su Mu, Zhuque and other Night Owl Guards were left in the palace, the smiles on both of their faces disappeared at the same time.

They have to perform in front of outsiders.

Now that there are no outsiders around, both sides naturally don't want to continue acting.

"Master Su has good tactics."

Zhuque said coldly, "You asked us to come to Zhuyazhou. Now that we are here, where is Qinglong?"

"Don't worry, he's still alive."

Su Mu said lightly.

The person is still alive, but his cultivation has been wasted.

Su Mu added in his mind.

The astrological power of Qinglong has been transferred to Ao Qing by him using the magical skill of transplanting flowers and trees.

Having lost the power of astrology, Qinglong's cultivation has fallen to the Zhenyuan realm.

However, he is extremely tenacious and is still alive in the blessed land inside the Dunlong Pillar.

Su Mu hasn't had time to deal with him recently.

"Let's not beat around the bush, Su Mu, tell me what it will take to let Qing Long go."

Suzaku said in a deep voice.

He went to drink with Su Mu not to reminisce about the past, but to find a way to rescue Qinglong.

The Night Owl Guards have lost too many men and cannot afford the loss of Azure Dragon.

"Lord Suzaku, this is not the attitude of begging."

Su Mu smiled faintly and said.

"What do you care about our attitude?"

Bai Hu said angrily, “We are here to discuss a deal, not to make friends!

Tell us what you want, we will meet your demands, and you will release them."

"happy."

Su Mu clapped his hands and said, "From what you said, you will agree to any request I make?"

"Of course not."

Zhuque spoke quickly, fearing that Baihu would agree hastily.

"If you ask us to end our lives, will we agree to that?

Su Mu, we are not fools, we all know how much Qinglong's life is worth.

If your request is too excessive, we would rather give up Qinglong. I think Qinglong himself will understand us.

So, you have to think it through.

Should I use Qinglong's life to exchange for some benefits, or should I kill Qinglong just for the sake of momentary pleasure? "

He stared at Su Mu with burning eyes. He seemed calm, but in fact his palms were full of sweat.

There were clearly fifty-four of them, while Su Mu on the opposite side only had one person.

But now, they are the ones who are nervous.

On the contrary, Su Mu looked calm and had the upper hand.

Zhuque felt helpless, what else could he do?

Qinglong's life is in their hands.

They can't really ignore Qinglong.

“You may still not know me very well.”

Su Mu said slowly, "When I do things, I always just want to be happy.

No matter how many things you have, nothing is as good as having clear thoughts.

If you think you can threaten me with this, you are wrong.

Honestly, I would rather kill Qinglong than let him go."

He was calm and composed, and the Night Owl Guards were chilled to the bone. (End of this chapter)
