A few days later, the Great Feng Emperor went to the border, in a mountain forest.
Hong Zhan and Zhao Shenfeng were looking at a man in black.
"In the lower cold leopard, I have seen Elder Hong and Sect Master Zhao." The man in black bowed slightly.
"Cold leopard? Did you send a message and found Zhao Jiu?" Hong Zhan asked the man in black.
"Yes, under the order of the first prince Zhou Wudi, he has been undercover in Shiwang Ridge all these years and has been staring at this place. Two months ago, a strong man from the Emperor Holy Realm came here, and it was not until not long ago that he found out that it was the ninth prince of the Great Feng Emperor Dynasty, Zhao Jiu." Leng Bao said.
Hong Zhan turned his head to look at a small city in the distance, surrounded by formations, and a large number of soldiers were patrolling and training outside the city.
"This is the border military camp of the Great Feng Emperor?" Hong Zhan asked.
"Yes, they built a small city here, called 'Town Lion City', and stationed a town lion army to guard and monitor the Lion King Ridge where I am." Leng Bao said.
"What is the situation at Lion King Ridge?" Hong Zhan asked.
"Lion King Ridge is located at the junction of Dacang and Dafeng, and is a buffer zone between the two dynasties, and the two dynasties do not care. There are mixed human races and demon races. A lion king unified the Lion King Ridge. Although there are dozens of dynasties stationed there, the people of those dynasties are all food raised in captivity by the demons of Lion King Ridge." Leng Bao said.
"Captive humans to fill rations?" Hong Zhan was surprised.
"Yes. The large area to the east is all the territory controlled by Lion King Ridge, the Lion King is the Emperor's Holy Realm cultivation, and there are many demon clan powerhouses under his command, which is an extremely huge demon clan." Leng Bao said.
"The demons of Lion King Ridge keep humans in captivity for food, and the two dynasties have ignored them?" Hong Zhan asked.
"Lion King Ridge is outside the two dynasties, even if the two dynasties are not used to it, it is not convenient to take action, once they attack Lion King Ridge, there is a suspicion of provoking the other dynasty. So over the years, Lion King Ridge has not been moved. I was just sent undercover to Lion King Ridge. Maybe the Great Feng Emperor also has undercover agents in Shiwang Ridge." Leng Bao said.
"The war between the two dynasties is coming, what is the attitude of the Lion King?" Hong Zhan asked.
"Recently, both dynasties have sent envoys to the Lion King Ridge Alliance, and the Lion King's attitude is vague, not refusing or agreeing, as if he is waiting for a price." Leng Bao said.
"Oh?"
"This time, the Great Feng Emperor Zhao Jiu came to sit in Lion City, I guess, it should be for the Lion King of the Alliance." Leng Bao said.
"Zhao Jiu and the Lion King, have you met?" Hong Zhan asked.
"No, Zhao Jiu has been sitting in the Lion City for the past two months and rarely appears." Leng Bao said.
"What is the attitude of the Lion King?" Hong Zhan asked.
"I can't see it, and the Lion King didn't take a stand." Leng Bao said.
Hong Zhan nodded and looked at the Lion City in the distance.
The purpose of his trip was mainly to find Zhou Jingxuan, Zhao Jiu may be the reincarnation of Zhou Jingxuan's father, but he didn't know if Zhou Jingxuan was here.
Zhou Wuxin said that Zhou Jingxuan's trip was full of dangers, disasters, and deaths.
Therefore, he wanted to find Zhou Jingxuan as soon as possible and take Zhou Jingxuan out of the whirlpool of danger.
Zhao Jiu is the reincarnation of his father, if it weren't for his father's reincarnation, wouldn't it be dangerous for Zhou Jingxuan to go to Zhao Jiu?
Leng Bao said curiously: "Two, I don't know what you want to do on this trip?"
Hong Zhan glanced at Leng Bao, naturally he would not say anything about Zhou Jingxuan's search for his father, he could only say: "Zhenshi City has what I want, I want to search for it."
Leng Bao was stunned and said: "What are you kidding? The Lion City is a large border army camp, with countless killing formations, and there are many soldiers of the Imperial Holy Realm, and even Zhao Jiu of the Imperial Holy Realm is stationed there.
"It's okay, you can tell me about the situation in Lion City in detail." Hong Zhan said.
Leng Bao looked puzzled, but nodded and said: "In the Lion City, we found out that there are ten soldiers of the Imperial Holy Realm, namely ......."
Leng Bao seriously introduced the strong people in the Lion City and their characteristics.
Listening, Hong Zhan suddenly interrupted: "Wait, you mentioned Zhao Xuelong just now? Is it Zhao Xuelong, the Marquis of Dingnan?"
"Yes, it's him." Leng Bao said.
"Why is he here?" Hong Zhan said with a strange expression.
Last time, Zhao Xuelong went to Yunjing and gave him a white snake Yang Shen, only a few months ago, did he meet again?
"Zhao Xuelong came with Zhao Jiu, Zhao Jiu appointed Zhao Xuelong as the commander-in-chief of the Lion Army, responsible for guarding the border and monitoring Lion King Ridge. I guess it was Zhao Jiuyu who allied with the Lion King and brought Zhao Xuelong to rub his military merits." Leng Bao said.
"Oh?" Hong Zhan said thoughtfully.
"Although Zhao Jiu finally became the crown prince, he is extremely strong and domineering, and his heart is cruel, so don't enter the city easily and take risks." Leng Bao persuaded.
Hong Zhan didn't drink, just stared at the Lion City in the distance, he wanted to enter the city to search, so he would naturally consider it more comprehensively.
After pondering for a while, Hong Zhan began to ask about the members of Lion King Ridge and Lion City, and Leng Bao explained them in detail one by one.
Hong Zhan listened carefully, and after listening, Hong Zhan thought for a while before saying: "Leng Bao, Zhou Wuyou sent you a message, let you listen to my arrangements next?"
"Yes, if you have any arrangements, I will cooperate with you. It's just that you want to search the Lion City, it's really too dangerous, I'm afraid I can't help you." Leng Bao smiled bitterly.
"You don't need to participate in the search of the city, it's enough for you to do what you can." Hong Zhan said.
Leng Bao exhaled lightly, and then looked at Hong Zhan suspiciously.
"I want to provoke Zhao Jiu and the Lion King to fight, and then I will take the opportunity to enter the city to search for what I want." Hong Zhan said.
"It can't succeed, the Lion King is extremely cautious, it is waiting for the price, but it doesn't want to fight with Zhao Jiu, Zhao Jiu probably doesn't want to tear up with the Lion King, right?" Leng Bao frowned.
"So, they need to be provoked." Hong Zhan said.
"How to provoke?" Leng Bao was puzzled.
"Next, you just need to cooperate with me, I will make some arrangements." Hong Zhan said.
"Yes!" Leng Bao nodded.
Hong Zhan and Leng Bao explained some things, and Leng Bao retreated in response.
In the mountains and forests, only Hong Zhan and Zhao Shenfeng were left.
"Your Majesty, why don't you arrest some soldiers of the Lion Town Army and interrogate the situation in the city?" Zhao Shenfeng asked.
"It is definitely to arrest people for interrogation, but it may not be possible to judge all the situation in the city. Secondly, Jingxuan may not be in Lion City and hide around. I need to make the movement bigger, warn Jingxuan, and let her look for me." Hong Zhan explained.
"Yes!" Zhao Shenfeng nodded and said, and then said: "I'm afraid it is not easy to provoke Zhao Jiu and the Lion King."
"Naturally, it is not easy, but Zhao Xuelong is here, it is different." Hong Zhan smiled.
"Why?" Zhao Shenfeng wondered.
"Because Zhao Xuelong has a grudge against me." Hong Zhan smiled.
"Huh?" Zhao Shenfeng didn't understand for a while.
"I need you to go back to Yunjing and the Hangu Forbidden Area immediately, bring some people over, and arrange it with me." Hong Zhan said.
"Yes!"
------
A few days later, a team of soldiers flew in the mountain and forest area with demonic energy.
During the flight, they saw a large number of flies flying in many valleys, and the stench was soaring, and when they got closer, they found that there were human bones all over the mountains, which seemed to have been gnawed by monsters, and some residual flesh was rotting, causing countless flies to surround them.
"Lion King Ridge? Human bones are piled up into mountains, it is really purgatory on earth." A soldier said with an ugly face.
"We are just here to deliver a letter, don't be troublesome." The leader soldier said.
The crowd stopped talking and flew towards a mountain surrounded by fog in the distance.
Before they could fly closer, a group of monster beasts flew into the sky, their eyes shining and surrounding them.
"Is it a monk? How dare you break into Lion King Ridge? Come to deliver food to us, right?"
"It's been a long time since I've eaten a monk with advanced cultivation, I want to share one."
"Whoever grabs it is whom."
……
A group of monsters were excited to pounce.
The leader of the soldier shouted: "I am the messenger of the Great Heavenly Dynasty, who dares to be presumptuous?"
The group of demons pounced on them regardless of it.
"Stop!"
A broken shout sounded, stopping the movements of the demons, and the demons turned their heads to look, only to see that it was the cold leopard flying out.
"Meet Commander Leng?" The demons bowed.
Leng Bao waved away the demons, looked at the soldiers, and said, "Who are you?"
The leader soldier said: "I am the messenger of the Great Heavenly Dynasty, and I have come to deliver the invitation on the order of my prince. Ten days later, my alliance envoy of the Great Cang Heavenly Dynasty, Hong Zhan, will come to Lion King Ridge in person to discuss the future of Lion King Ridge."
"The alliance envoy of the Great Cang Heavenly Dynasty? Are you here to win over my king?" Leng Bao laughed.
"I want to see the Lion King." The soldier said.
Leng Bao said: "Let's go, follow me into Lion King Ridge."
The soldiers followed Leng Leopard and flew to the misty Lion King Ridge.
At this moment, the news of the Great Cang Alliance envoy's upcoming negotiations at Lion King Ridge spread quickly. Soon it reached the Lion City.
In the Lion City, in a large hall.
Zhao Xuelong looked at a soldier in front of him and asked: "Are you sure that the alliance envoy sent by Zhou Jingxuan is Hong Zhan? Flood war in Cangnan District?"
"Yes, it has been confirmed repeatedly, and this news has spread all over Lion King Ridge." The soldier said.
"Is it really him? It's really a narrow road!" Zhao Xuelong said hatefully.
"Lord Hou, Hong Zhan held a Sitian Conference in the Hangu Forbidden Area Alliance dynasties, but there was a joke, why did Zhou Jingxuan give him such an important identity?" The soldier said curiously.
"Because Hong Zhan is a little white face? Hmph, this time, I want him to come and go." Zhao Xuelong said with a fierce face.
