C986 The Person Behind the Scenes
As mentioned before, there were four super teleportation formations in the four corners of the Great Zhou Dynasty, which were used to transport those princes who were far away.
These were the heavy weapons of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and they were heavily guarded.
The super teleportation formation in the south was located in the Jin State, but it was not under Gold King's jurisdiction. Every super teleportation formation had a cultivator guarding it, and the leader's cultivation base was at the late stage of the aperture exit.
This was also an extraordinary combat strength. The reason why Great Zhou set up the super teleportation formation in Jin State was obviously not so simple.
The truth was that when Great Zhou Dynasty was established, they gave special treatment to these princes with different surnames, but they would not completely ignore them.
Now, the remaining four princes with different surnames in Great Zhou had a common characteristic, and that was that their provinces all had super teleportation formations.
The remaining four were also the four with the strongest strength when the dynasty was first established, and the four who contributed the most were guarding the east, west, north, and south of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Setting up the super teleportation formation here was also a way to keep them in check. After all, the defense of the super teleportation formation was not weak. If they made any unusual moves, they could immediately send the elite army of the Imperial Court to destroy it, not giving them any chance to succeed.
Of course, this was one aspect. Another aspect could also be seen that the Great Zhou Dynasty trusted them back then. After all, it was not easy to set up a super teleportation formation. It was one of the cornerstones of the Great Zhou Dynasty's rule. If something were to happen to this formation, it wouldn't shake the Great Zhou Dynasty's rule. At least, it could damage its luck.
It was also the duty of a prince to guard the super teleportation formation.
"Let me think!!" What Shen Lang said was reasonable and reasonable. However, it was a major matter for this prince with a different surname to kill a prince directly under the jurisdiction of Great Zhou. If he was not careful, he would be labeled as a traitor.
"Your Highness, have you forgotten the fatal magic treasure in your hand?" Shen Lang reminded him at the right time.
"I am confused!" Gold King was amused by himself. He had said that he could kill South-suppressing King and Pingwu King at any time, but now that the matter was about to come to an end, he hesitated.
"What if they take out a high-grade Spirit Vein?" Gold King said with a frown.
"Don't worry, Your Highness. They won't be able to take out a high-grade Spirit Vein." Shen Lang smiled and said, "Even if they take it out, we won't be able to recognize it."
"That makes sense!" Gold King was not a pedantic person. He immediately knew what to do.
"Then I will immediately write a letter and return to Pingwu King."
As he spoke, Gold King began to write. He strictly refused Pingwu King's invitation, and even said that he wasn't interested in any new warship and wouldn't come.
Shen Lang frowned when he saw this. How could this be!?
"Your Royal Highness, why don't you be a little more polite with your tone." Shen Lang reminded.
Gold King looked down on South-suppressing King and Pingwu King from the bottom of his heart. Now that he knew that the two of them could plot against him, he naturally wouldn't say anything.
"Write it then!" Gold King wouldn't do something as soft as this. He could only give the pen to Shen Lang.
Shen Lang took the pen. This was not a strange thing, and it happened every now and then. Shen Lang did not hold back and immediately took the pen.
Shen Lang's writing was much more euphemistic, and the main reason was that the Millennium Banquet was approaching. The super teleportation formation was about to be activated, and this sovereign had received the kindness of the emperor for generations. I should do my best to serve the imperial court and take care of the safety of the super teleportation formation. I have no time to be distracted. Since Pingwu King had the intention, he might as well come to Jin State to have a chat and head to the Sacred Dynasty together.
Of course, there was one thing that Shen Lang had not forgotten, and that was the high-grade Spirit Vein. Shen Lang wrote in this manner, "I hope that Pingwu King will remember the promise I made a few months ago. I will be waiting for your high-grade Spirit Vein in Imperial City."
"Your Royal Highness, do you think this will work?" Shen Lang passed the letter to Gold King.
Gold King did not take the letter and said casually, "Whatever! Anyway, I'm just trying to fool them. You can write whatever you want. Just write it down and I'll stamp it."
Gold King couldn't be bothered to read the content of the letter. He was relieved about Shen Lang's safety, not to mention that it wasn't a big deal. It was just a shirking of responsibilities. South-suppressing King and Pingwu King wouldn't dare not to come to Jin State. As long as they dared to come, they would just kill them.
"You have to pay close attention to the matters in Fallen Immortal City. Send someone to inquire about the exact information. Once the Millennium Banquet is over, we'll take action immediately."
The new warship was the thing that Gold King was concerned about. Everything else was just a small matter.
"Rest assured, Your Highness. Your subordinate will make the arrangements right away. In less than a month, there will definitely be reliable news."
"Yes!"
The matter was settled. Shen Lang let out a long sigh of relief. There were some things that he could not tell Gold King, because Gold King had a bad temper. He could easily get angry, and it was easier for him to get ahold of himself. He could only silently help Gold King and do what Gold King trusted.
There was an ordinary restaurant in Jin State. After Shen Lang left Gold King's mansion, he immediately came to this place, waiting for someone to appear.
In less than the time for an incense stick to burn, a girl came to a secret private room. It was Huo Fenghuang!
"Miss Huo, you are here." Shen Lang stood up to greet her, then told her everything that happened just now, and showed Huo Fenghuang the letter that he was going to give to Pingwu King.
This was the agreement between the two of them!
"Miss Huo, is what you said true?" Shen Lang asked.
"Butler Shen, you don't believe me?" Huo Fenghuang's face darkened instantly. She said coldly, "I have good intentions. If you don't believe me, you can persuade Gold King to bring his troops to Tiannan County immediately. We will know when we see the result. "
Half of those words were spoken by Shen Lang, and the other half was spoken by Huo Fenghuang.
Pingwu King and South-suppressing King had ulterior motives. They wanted to murder Gold King. This was what Huo Fenghuang told Shen Lang.
Of course, they were all suspicious, but that was enough.
Gold King was a key figure in Jin State. Once something happened to him, the entire Jin State would fall apart. The Shen Family had followed Gold King for hundreds of thousands of years. What good would happen to them? That was why Shen Lang had to be on guard.
Gold King's head was knocked out by the new warship, but Shen Lang didn't. His heart was as clear as a mirror.
This was probably because the people on the scene could not see what was going on!
If the Great Zhou Dynasty really wanted to deal with Gold King, so what if the Jin State had a new warship? There was only a fate of destruction.
At this critical moment, it wasn't to increase their strength, but to be careful with every step they took. They couldn't let anyone catch hold of anything.
The strength of Jin State was not weak, at least not inferior to the combined strength of the surrounding few counties. As long as Gold King abided by the rules, there was still a chance of survival.
But at this time, Huo Fenghuang appeared and told Shen Lang that Pingwu King wanted to use the new warship as bait to lure Pingwu King to the border between Pingwu County and Tiannan County, and then deal with Pingwu King.
As mentioned before, South-suppressing King and Pingwu King's strength was not enough to be feared, but Wei Hai County and An Yuan County around Jin State had to be guarded.
That was why Shen Lang strongly advised Gold King not to send troops. Even if they sent troops, they had to wait for the news before sending troops.
As long as Gold King did not get hot-headed and immediately send troops, it would be enough. It would take time to gather information. Once they left, there would not be much time left.
Was Gold King anxious? He didn't need to worry at all. The Fallen Immortal City was right there, and it wasn't like he could run away with his legs. As long as there was a new warship in the Fallen Immortal City, he could go and get it at any time.
This was Shen Lang's idea. It was just a gathering place for rogue cultivators, how could it be a threat? It was just a motley crew. Once Gold King's army arrived, they could only destroy it.
