On a mountain outside the royal city, Leng Shiqi stood with his hands behind his back. Delta Aurigae, Yushu, and Xiong Ming stood behind him.
Seeing Princess Carol ascend the throne, Leng Shiqi let out a long sigh of relief.
"Finally, I have a place to stand."
Yes, after secretly taking control of Zhu Luguo, he finally had a place to stand.
No matter how much power and influence he had in the Thunderblaze Dynasty, even if he had a soul avatar as the emperor, Zhu Luguo was a place he had personally planned for a long time. It was also a backup plan he had prepared for himself.
Leng Shiqi had many identities: Blood Garment Pavilion, Dark Thunder Guard, Western Barren King. These identities were watched by many people, so he had to be careful at all times.
However, Zhu Luguo was different. Now, only the people in the Underworld knew that this place belonged to Leng Shiqi, and only the people he trusted the most knew.
No matter what happened in the future, Zhu Luguo would be his backup plan.
Even if the Blood Garment Pavilion was completely defeated, even if his identity was completely exposed, he was not afraid.
With this backup plan, Leng Shiqi felt much more at ease.
Yushu looked at Leng Shiqi like he was looking at a monster and asked: "I really don't understand how you cultivate, it's too abnormal."
Without waiting for Leng Shiqi to answer, Yushu muttered "I'm going back to cultivate" and returned through the Underworld.
Xiong Ming did not say anything and also disappeared.
As for Delta Aurigae, she stretched out her hand and said: "Give me some more essence blood."
Leng Shiqi did not hesitate and took out dozens of drops of essence blood.
Last time, when he fought against the Indian army, he saw the power of Delta Aurigae's Blood Shadow Secret Art. It was a secret art with great potential. He was also very curious to what extent Delta Aurigae could perfect this secret art.
In the palace, Princess Carol, now Queen Carol, was still a bit absent-minded as she sat on the throne.
Ten days ago, she was still competing with the Heavenly Silkworm Palace for a few dozen li of land. She had racked her brains for this.
But in a short span of half a month, she sat on the throne of the highest position in Zhu Lu Country.
From the beginning to the end, she didn't seem to have done anything at all!
Everything had been arranged by Leng Shiqi long ago. She just had to be obedient and do what she was supposed to do.
At this moment, Queen Carol felt a deep sense of fear towards Leng Shiqi!
Just what kind of person was he? Not only was his strength terrifyingly powerful, but he also came and went like a ghost, taking every conceivable possibility into account, toying with the entire Zhu Road Country in the palm of his hand!
However, when she saw the officials kneeling before her, she raised her head slightly.
She was now the Queen, and the most important thing now was to win the hearts of the people.
Two days ago, Leng Shiqi killed a large number of Gus's trusted aides, causing many important positions in Zhu Road to be empty. Naturally, they had to be filled now.
Many people were moved by these positions, and it also gave Carol a very good opportunity to promote her trusted aides.
After arranging these positions, she also announced that Buddhism would be the state religion of Zhu Road. Naturally, Tu Deng would become the State Teacher.
No one stood up to oppose this. Everyone knew that Queen Carol had already roped in Buddhism. Moreover, Tu Deng was a true Sky Origin Stage expert. It was naturally a good thing for him to become the State Teacher of Zhu Road Country.
The palace was filled with a joyous atmosphere. However, at this moment, a person holding a scroll rushed in, ignoring the rules of the palace.
"Report!
Urgent report from the border, it's extremely urgent! "
No one in the palace tried to stop him, but everyone had a serious look on their faces.
Something had happened at the border!
Ever since Gus had taken the throne, Bei Liu Country had been restless while the Zhu Road Country's king was changing.
In the past few years, there had been several conflicts at the border, and Zhu Road Country had lost more than they won.
Leng Shiqi also recalled that he had indeed encountered the battle between the Zhu Lu Nation and the Bei Liu Nation. At that time, he had collected a large number of souls to upgrade the Underworld. Later on, he had bumped into the experts of the Li Family who had come to kill him.
Two days ago, when he was wantonly slaughtering in the capital, the news had already spread to Bei Liu Country.
It was normal to have spies in the Zhu Road Country's capital, and Bei Liu Country, who had received this information, knew that this was an excellent opportunity!
Thus, they immediately mobilized their army to the border of Zhu Road Country!
Queen Carol's expression was also heavy. She had just been crowned Queen, and something had happened at the border. If she did not handle it well, her prestige would be greatly damaged.
She calmed her mind and calmly asked, "What happened at the border?"
That person hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, Bei Liu Country's army of fifty thousand has poured out and is already two hundred meters away from the border!"
"Hua!"
The palace hall was instantly filled with exclamations.
Bei Liu Country and Zhu Road Country were not much different in strength, at most two or three times stronger than Zhu Road Country. Bei Liu Country had a total of sixty to seventy thousand soldiers, but this time, Bei Liu Country had directly mobilized fifty thousand elite soldiers!
Were they not afraid that the Great Moon Kingdom behind them would take advantage of the situation?
No, Bei Liu Country was now planning to take advantage of the chaos in Zhu Road Country!
What worried everyone was that there were only thirty thousand Di Lu troops stationed at the border. Although the fortress was easy to defend and difficult to attack, in this world, the number of soldiers was not the only factor in war.
More importantly, it was the number of experts!
Bei Liu Country suddenly sent fifty thousand elite soldiers, and the experts among them must be far more than those at the border.
As long as the other side sent experts to take the lead and destroy the defense of the fortress, it would not take long for them to break through the fortress!
Originally, there were only some small conflicts between the two sides, but suddenly, Bei Liu Country's desperate approach made everyone a little panic.
Qu Li's expression did not change. He said, "Your Majesty, the most urgent thing now is to immediately mobilize the Indian Army to the border, but the speed of the army is too slow. It will take more than ten days!
Therefore, we also need to gather some experts above the Spirit Aperture Realm to take the lead as soon as possible to prevent Bei Liu Country from launching a sneak attack on the fortress. "
As soon as he spoke, everyone was immediately relieved. Queen Carol also agreed with Qu Li's suggestion.
The two most powerful elite troops in Zhu Road Country were the Indian Army and the Di Lu Army, each with about thirty thousand soldiers. The Di Lu Army had always been stationed at the western border, while the Indian Army was scattered in various important places.
Queen Carol was about to speak, but Leng Shiqi's voice suddenly appeared in her mind.
"I happen to have something to do in Bei Liu Country, so I will solve this matter on the way."
Hearing this, Queen Carol's expression froze.
What did he mean by solving it on the way?
That was an army of fifty thousand!
Even fifty thousand pigs could not be killed in a short time. How could Leng Shiqi solve it?
But on second thought, it was a miracle that she could sit here at this time. What could Leng Shiqi not do?
So she said to the ministers, "There is no need to be so troublesome. I have a way to deal with the fifty thousand soldiers."
