In the Xianglong Kingdom, the atmosphere in the last few days seems to have suddenly become a lot more solemn, and even the civilians walking on the street feel this weirdness.
For example, the major families in the country that were in peace, have suddenly started various conflicts in recent days, and even fought.
For another example, the royal family of the kingdom, which has always been recognized as being very powerful, even chose to sit on the sidelines in the face of the friction and struggle between the major families.
All this indicates that this country may be about to undergo a great change.
"Dark Dragon, do you mean my throne will be the end?"
In the imperial palace of the Xianglong Kingdom, Emperor Yuan Wujiang stood in front of the window and muttered as he watched the slowly falling sunset.
Yuan Wujiang is already sixty years old this year, and his face looks very old because of his exhaustion of national affairs.
And behind him, stood a mighty general wearing a black armor at this time. This general was not very young, only about twenty years old in appearance.
He is the number one master beside Yuan Wujiang and his personal guard, Dark Dragon.
"Emperor, you have been worrying too much. Although we have suffered heavy losses in this war, Da Zhou is fighting on two fronts, and the situation is not much better than ours," Dark Dragon exhorted.
But he wasn't as confident as he said in his heart. It was really because the Xianglong Kingdom had lost too badly this time.
Yuan Wujiang waved his hand, then walked to the dragon chair and sat down and said, "You don't have to persuade me, I know exactly what is going on in the Xianglong Kingdom."
"The kingdom's one million army has been lost in half. I want to come to those families, and I feel restless recently."
Hearing the words, the dark dragon flashed a cold light in his eyes: "Your Majesty, please be relieved, if those families dare to mess around, I will definitely make them regret it."
Yuan Wujiang did not doubt the words of Dark Dragon.
Perhaps the people in the Xianglong Kingdom believed that the strongest person in the country should be one of the patriarchs of several great families, and no matter how bad they are, they must be the suzerains of the various sects.
But no one knew that the first master of the Xianglong Kingdom was the dark dragon who had been personally protecting Yuan Wujiang.
He is also the only military commander in the entire kingdom.
"Dark Dragon, how many years have you been with me?"
Yuan Wujiang's tone was plain, but Dark Dragon heard a hint of nostalgia from it.
The dark dragon said: "The minister has been with your majesty since he was eight years old. It has been twenty years now."
The Dark Dragon, who looked only twenty years old, had already reached twenty-eight years old.
Even so, being able to reach the martial arts level at this age is enough to be called a genius.
Yuan Wujiang smiled, and a trace of relief flashed in his muddy eyes: "With your talent, you should have been on a broader stage, but I have kept you by my side. Do you blame me?"
The Dark Dragon was slightly startled, then shook his head and said: "Your Majesty has a life-saving grace to the minister, and he has devoted a lot of effort to the minister. People must understand the reward of grace."
Yuan Wujiang's body trembled slightly, but after all, he didn't look back, but continued to watch the setting sun that was about to fall.
He said with sorrow in his voice: "Dark Dragon, do you think that my emperor is quite dull?"
"If I don't invade Dazhou, the soldiers of the Xianglong Kingdom will not die more than half."
"If I did not invade Da Zhou, the royal family of Xianglong Kingdom would not face such a dilemma."
"If I……"
"Your Majesty is not wrong, all ministers understand!"
Dark Dragon spoke suddenly, and some emotions interrupted Yuan Wujiang's words.
Perhaps the interruption of the emperor was a bit rebellious, but the Dark Dragon couldn't help but speak.
"His Majesty!"
The Dark Dragon knelt on one knee, and then said: "The minister knows that the major families in the kingdom have jointly requested the Luo family to request that the Xianglong Kingdom can change its dynasty."
"The only thing that can solve this deadlock is to get more places for dynasty martial arts, and then strive for the greatest opportunity for the royal genius to enter the superpower, so as to preserve the royal family."
The Dark Dragon who has been following Yuan Wujiang is perhaps the person who knows him best in the world.
He understands everything that Yuan Wujiang does.
Yuan Wujiang was not surprised at Dark Dragon's purpose of breaking his own. He finally turned around and walked to the dragon chair before sitting down.
Outside the palace, the night has completely fallen.
The dim light swayed in the hall, just like Yuan Wujiang, whose life had already reached its twilight years, it could be extinguished at any time.
At this moment, Yuan Wujiang had no joy or sorrow on his face, and he said frankly: "No matter what my purpose is, but in the matter of using Deng Yi'an, I was ultimately wrong."
"It seems that it's time for this world to be handed over to your young people, just like the little emperor of Da Zhou, who is so outstanding at such an age, it is amazing."
Speaking of Xiao Chen, even Yuan Wujiang, as his opponent, couldn't help showing a hint of admiration.
Dark Dragon nodded and said: "He is indeed extraordinary!"
At this time, Yuan Wujiang suddenly took out a shabby sheepskin roll from the storage ring.
Dark Dragon glanced curiously, but didn't ask what it was.
Yuan Wujiang reached out and handed the sheepskin roll to Dark Dragon, and then asked, "Dark Dragon, do you know what this is?"
Dark Dragon shook his head and said: "I don't know!"
Yuan Wujiang's expression was righteous: "This is a treasure map with a big secret hidden inside."
The big secret?
Dark Dragon was startled and hurriedly said, "Since the matter is of great importance, please don't tell the minister."
Yuan Wujiang waved his hand and said, "Don't refuse, I must give you this sheepskin roll."
"You have also seen the situation in the Xianglong Kingdom. At most half a year, the Yuan family will be over."
"I have two sons. Yuan Liang, who is outstandingly talented, has died in Da Zhou, and there is one insignificant Yuan Xiao. To give him this kind of thing is to harm him."
"So, you are the most suitable heir to this treasure, don't refuse."
Dark Dragon tightened the sheepskin roll in his hand, and his eyes turned slightly red.
He can feel that Yuan Wujiang is confessing the future.
Yuan Wujiang did not see the dark dragon's face change, and said to himself: "This sheepskin scroll is divided into five pieces. Only by collecting all five pieces can you find the hidden treasure, otherwise even if only one of them is missing. Zhang, it's no different from waste paper."
"I spent a lot of time in my life searching for the whereabouts of other sheepskin scrolls, and now I have some clues. Three of them are located outside the Northern Territory, and the last one is on Xiao Chen's body."
"Some time ago, the Lingyun firm in Dazhou held an auction. A man named Shangguan Longxing auctioned off a sheepskin roll."
Dark Dragon glanced at Yuan Wujiang in surprise. He didn't expect Yuan Wujiang, who had never left the Xianglong Kingdom, to know the whereabouts of this sheepskin scroll.
Yuan Wujiang smiled and said, "Don't be curious. Although I have never left the kingdom, I paid a lot for this parchment scroll."
After speaking, he suddenly stood up and looked at Dark Dragon with serious eyes: "Dark Dragon, from today on, you are not a member of Xianglong Kingdom. From now on, your name will be called Longxun. I hope you can gather sheepskins soon. volume."
