Then the most surprising thing is Paradise City, which announced in a high-profile manner that Paradise City will still maintain its independence. An agreement has been reached with the regent on this matter. With Paradise City as the center, a radius of three hundred miles will still belong to Paradise Force.

But there are also rumors that Ji Le paid a high price. This matter was almost confirmed with the high-profile announcement by Ji Le City that it would spend huge sums of money to build a palace for King Zhenxi.

That Jiang Xiaoyao seemed to be very satisfied with Ji Le's approach, and soon announced that he was going to Ji Le, where he would be interviewed by all the powerful forces in the fiefdom.

But this time, he not only wanted to visit Ji Le, but also led a hundred thousand private troops to patrol the fiefdom.

Now the whole world is alarmed. What do you mean by bringing an army of 100,000? It's a shock. Now it's better. It's conceivable that many people who originally meant it have to go to Paradise. The Huanglong Gang's lessons learned from the past are still there.

There it is.

No one believed that the Huanglong Gang was so stupid. It was obvious that Jiang Xiaoyao found an excuse to get rid of him. If such a powerful gang could just say that, what do we have?

As for the private army, bah! I don’t even believe it.

It’s not that you, King Xiaoyao, can’t afford it. Everyone knows you are rich, but under the eyes of the Empress, you say you can support a hundred thousand private army? Are you dreaming or just fooling people?

Obviously, those who fooled people almost 100% believed that the new Emperor's husband borrowed soldiers from his wife, and the private army's explanation was just to deceive others.

Some people think that the most painful thing is Wei State. They promised you to remain neutral, but if these 100,000 people attack the fiefdom, what is the difference between the empress sending troops to guard it?

A couple singing a double act and telling lies with their eyes wide open are really not human beings.

The matter of King Xiaoyao is arousing heated discussions, and another thing has rushed to the hot discussion list. The Holy Land Taihua actually wants to select a new Sword Immortal.

It is said that because Lu Yai entered the world and went to practice hard, the Demon Sword Peak cannot be left alone. At the suggestion of the Holy Lord, Taihua will hold a heroes meeting on the day of the Autumn Festival to establish a new candidate for the Sword Immortal.

This matter is not at all smaller than that of King Xiaoyao, it is even worse.

There were divergent opinions for a while. Although many people also suspected that something was not right, the Holy Land was not something that could be discussed casually. Everyone still had the attitude of waiting and watching. Let's see who the new Sword Immortal would be.

Three of the major candidates have also become the object of everyone's attention.

They are the great elder Jiazi, Lu Yai's contemporary Jiang Chenzhou, and the first disciple of the Five Generations Gao Jian.

As the subject of heated discussion, Jiang Fan and the Empress were also chatting with these three people.

"The Great Elder Jiazi, one hundred and ninety-two years old, was originally supposed to be the candidate for the Three Swords Immortal. However, the Great Elder is indifferent by nature and does not strive for fame and wealth. It is rare to see Lu Yai cultivate to Tongxuan, so he was recommended at the beginning."

The empress said while eating mutton skewers.

"Oh? Then if he became the Demon Sword Immortal, who would this great elder be?"

"It doesn't matter who he is. What's important is that no matter who he is, he will be renamed Jiazi. This is Elder Taihua's inherent ranking."

"I see..." Jiang Fan took a bunch of kidneys and grilled them: "Who is Jiang Chenzhou?"

"Your master and Lu Yai are senior brothers. Speaking of which, he is the senior brother. But Jiang Chenzhou had mastered a certain kind of swordsmanship at that time and practiced hard without paying any attention to it."

"Oops? So there are experts named Jiang?"

The empress gave him a disdainful look: "Do you think they are all idiots in martial arts like you? Jiang Chenzhou was once among the top ten in Taihua Swordsmanship, and his ranking was still very high. His cultivation was unfathomable. But it was rare to hear of him taking action. Over time,

Forgotten by the world.”

Jiang Fan said: "Taihua, it's really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. I thought Lu Yai was the second strongest in Taihua."

The empress said: "Don't underestimate the Thousand-Year Holy Land. Lu Yai is at least in the top five, and he may not be able to enter the top three."

Jiang Fan was greatly surprised: "So perverted? Is this fifth-generation disciple Gao Jian also very strong? Otherwise, why would it be his turn to be the fifth-generation disciple if he wasn't selected from the second- and third-generation disciples?"

The empress said: "I don't know."

"Don't know?" Jiang Fan was stunned: "What do you mean by not knowing?"

"Gao Jian has never heard of his actions. However, Taihua recognized him as the number one disciple of the fifth generation, and many people in the fourth, third, and even second generations also believed that he was the strongest."

"To call a person with no record the strongest? That's outrageous."

The empress said: "Perhaps it's not that we have no achievements, but that we have no survivors."

Jiang Fan was stunned: "The sword will kill? The kind of Seven Killing Sword?"

The empress snorted softly: "The Seven Killing Sword has gained a false reputation. If he were not the sixth general of the Feng family, this seventh elder may not be able to take his turn. This person should be completely different from the Seven Killing Sword. He may be a real killing sword. There is one thing.

You should note that this person initially practiced swordsmanship with the Seven Killing Sword."

Jiang Fan nodded: "Understood, I hope he doesn't want to take revenge for the teacher."

"It's hard to say, Gao Jian is an unknown person and no one understands him. But if you killed the Seven Killing Sword, I'm afraid you will be exposed sooner or later."

Jiang Fan said: "It doesn't matter. If I don't kill him, he will stare at me and yell at me every day to kill him. It's annoying to death. This time I feel a lot cleaner."

The empress said: "Just as he has never admitted to hunting you down, even if there is evidence, you should not admit it before you can be unscrupulous."

"I understand, as long as Gu Qiongsu doesn't betray me, no one will know for a while."

"If it is as you said, this person has ulterior motives and will not betray you in the short term."

"I'm not worried about that. The only problem is that someone wanted to ask Feng Chen to save Concubine Shu in order to save the life of the Seven Killing Swords. This is no longer possible..."

The empress shook her head: "You know it in your heart, but it's impossible. Fengchen will not waste such an important bargaining chip."

In fact, there is still a thorn in Jiang Fan's heart, that is, the Seven Killing Sword knew the whereabouts of the Four Tails, but he did not tell him in the end. Fortunately, since Jiang Fan dared to kill him, he had actually considered some things, and the news about the Four Tails seemed to have

Not only the Seven Swordsmen know this.

"Of these people, who do you like the most?" Jiang Fan thought for a while and asked.

The empress shook her head: "It's hard to say, no one is surprised. Who do you think Gu Qingshan is most optimistic about?"

Yes, that poor guy...who is he talking about? The Great Elder? He and the Great Elder once welcomed the old commander together. It is said that the relationship seems to be good. So this person is possible.

As for Jiang Chenzhou and Gao Jian, these two names are unfamiliar to me and I can't guess.

But considering Gu Qingshan's poor character, he would most likely choose something no one expected...

Jiang Fan fell into deep thought for a while.

He was a little distracted and kept sprinkling chili peppers. The empress frowned and said, "Spread less chili pepper. It's getting hot lately."

"Ah, oh, I see..." Jiang Fan dusted off some chili powder and suddenly said, "The spicier the better, isn't it?"

"I'm talking about you."

Jiang Fan touched his head: "I didn't."
