Chapter 244: The evil cultivator’s brain-burning plan...
When Gu Yiheng was on his way back to the capital, a black aura attacked the camp at night. It was an evil cultivator named Ming He who liked to eat brains. He needed a large amount of Yuan Yang Qi to increase the power of his magic weapon, the "Nine Yin Soul-Calming Banner".
Ming He happily floated into the marshal's tent. He thought that after swallowing the marshal's Yuan Yang Qi, his rank could be raised by three levels.
"Hehe, a little evil cultivator is actually showing off his fangs and claws in front of this king, slurping...Pah...It's so disgusting..."
The white dragon that was huddled in Marshal Gu's sea of consciousness suddenly appeared in the air. It swallowed the evil cultivator's soul in one gulp. The white dragon casually spit out a mouthful of divine fire at the evil cultivator's body. With a whoosh... the evil cultivator disappeared completely, and the Nine Yin Soul-Suppressing Banner in his hand fell to the ground with a "clack".
"Hey, there's actually a female dragon soul trapped in this banner that hasn't transformed into a human form? Tsk tsk, it really brings shame to our dragon clan!"
The white dragon used its magical power and made hand gestures to pull out the dying black dragon. Its tail was broken, and one of the two bumps on its head was damaged. Most of the inky scales on the black dragon's body had fallen off, and its breath was getting weaker and weaker.
Lord Bai Jiao frowned as he looked at the limp little creature in his hand. At this time, the black dragon had shrunk to a three-foot long size. Bai Jiao took out a spirit stone with a distressed look and bit off a small piece with his teeth to feed the unlucky dragon. He casually threw the black dragon into his spirit bag.
Bai Jiao stared at the Nine Yin Soul-Suppressing Banner and thought for three breaths. He unhappily wrapped the evil black banner with his spiritual power and threw it into his personal space.
At this time, Gu Yiheng was sleeping soundly in the tent with his wife Ye Jiu in his arms. After the couple played in the water, Ye Jiu fell asleep first due to exhaustion. After Gu Yiheng thought about what he needed to do when returning to the imperial capital, he also fell into a deep sleep.
In the camp at night, several teams of soldiers on duty were patrolling the camp. Deputy General Chu did not sleep. He sat in the tent reading a military book.
The candlelight flickers, the incense wafts...
General Chu, dressed in a dark robe, gazed at the words on the scroll with indifferent eyes.
General Chu seemed like the god of war, with his black hair like crow feathers scattered behind him, and the moonlight was like water... The silver moonlight was draped on General Chu's hair and shoulders, and there seemed to be a cloud of ethereal fairy mist around him.
Five days before returning to the imperial capital to support the Northern Wilderness, the Minister of War summoned General Chu. Behind the polite words, the Minister gave veiled hints. He indicated General Chu to monitor Marshal Gu Yiheng.
The Shangshu suspected that Gu Yiheng had recovered, and he was afraid that Gu Yiheng would go back and take revenge on the entire Qilian Dynasty.
More than one person had this idea, but no one could prove that Gu Yiheng could actually walk. They only speculated about Marshal Gu behind his back with the greatest malice.
Not to mention, their idea was actually right, but no one could ever be sure whether Gu Yiheng was really a good person.
Ever since the evil formation in the mausoleum of the Qilian Dynasty that was used to borrow dragon energy from Gu's ancestors was broken, the pseudo-royal family of the Qilian Dynasty has been plagued by misfortunes. Now the puppet little emperor in the court is seriously ill again.
The power of the cabinet is growing. After the Northern Wilderness reinforcements won, the cabinet ministers were extremely relieved. What could make these ministers who are in charge of the government happier than peace and prosperity?
After Ye Jiu accompanied her husband back to the capital of Dayu Dynasty, she spent her free time in the space researching new drugs.
Zhang Zhilan could not sit still any longer. She regretted very much not staying in the Southern Wilderness with her uncle Gu Yiheng. Now, Zhang Zhilan had turned half evil and felt inexplicably irritated. Her uncle had returned from a victorious battle and was given an official title and a higher rank by the Cabinet.
Zhang Zhilan knew that her cousin Gu Shuang'er was still in the Southern Wilderness. She heard that her cousin looked more and more like her aunt Ye Jiu. Gu Shuang'er, who was known as the most beautiful woman in the Southern Wilderness, had been praised by many people for her story.
Zhang Liu, who was once a third-rank official, has now been promoted to the second rank. Zhang Zhilan often attends banquets for ladies in the imperial capital, and her status is gradually becoming more important.
