We are all reborn, let's practice dual cultivation with Master first

In the Ten Thousand Mountains of the Lower Realm, after the Tiger Clan discovered the unusual movements of the Phoenix Clan, they gathered at the border between the two clans, seemingly intending to invade again.

The Phoenix Clan was already in turmoil, and when they heard that the Tiger Clan was invading again, they immediately fell into chaos.

Without Hong Lie saying anything, Qin Hao went to the Hongyan Cliff without any hesitation.

Facing the groups of tigers below, Qin Hao walked forward alone without any fear in his eyes, and then explained the reason to the tigers.

The elders of the Phoenix Clan speculated that the incident was mostly caused by the three poisonous fire smoke owls. One of them hid in the magma after stealing the artifact, and in order to give its companions a chance to escape, the two poisonous fire smoke owls outside the Phoenix Nest attacked the tiger clan in order to provoke a fight between the Phoenix Clan and the tiger clan, and then take advantage of the chaos to leave.

Although the three poisonous fire and smoke owls all have the strength of demon kings, the Phoenix Nest is the holy land of the Phoenix clan after all. The clan has a heritage of tens of thousands of years and a strong foundation, so a forced breakthrough will definitely be hindered.

Qin Hao's words were just his own. How could the tiger tribe believe him? This immediately caused a lot of dissatisfaction.

"Is that what you said? Why should my people believe you?"

"You are just a mere human, how dare you get involved in the affairs of my Phoenix and Tiger tribes!"

"What qualifications do you have?"

Faced with the tiger tribe's sarcasm and ridicule, Qin Hao did not get angry. He just summoned a thousand-meter Dharma image and then threw the bloody body of the three-headed poisonous fire and smoke owl in front of the tiger tribe.

The moment the thousand-meter Dharma image rose from the ground, all the tiger tribe members present were horrified, and the terrifying pressure that emanated from it made many of the weaker tiger tribe members crawl on the ground subconsciously, trembling all over. Even the few tiger tribe masters who were in the lead were suppressed by the pressure and could not raise their heads, and they never dared to look up at the true appearance of the Dharma image.

The corpse of the Poison Fire Smoke Owl that was dropped down made the tiger tribe even more terrified.

Although the monster was completely unrecognizable, they could still sense from its remaining aura that it was a late-stage demon king. Such a powerful demon king died so miserably and was abandoned by the human in front of him. How strong was he?

For a moment, the hearts of countless tigers were filled with gloom.

Seeing that the deterrent effect had been achieved, Qin Hao also dissipated his Dharma image.

At this time, when Qin Hao brought the Phoenix Clan down again, the Tiger Clan was finally able to communicate well.

When he came down, Hong Lie did not act arrogantly because he had Qin Hao's support. The two tribes had been neighbors for nearly ten thousand years, and if possible, he still hoped to get along in a friendly manner. Therefore, Hong Lie was very apologetic, first explaining the cause and effect of the matter, and then gave three Nirvana flowers as an apology.

The other members of the Tiger Clan also investigated the body of the Poison Fire Smoke Owl and found that the dark red wings did match some traces left when the Tiger Clan members were killed, so they believed it a little more.

Seeing his tribe members nod, the current chief of the Tiger Tribe took the three Nirvana flowers and reconciled with the Phoenix Tribe.

Afterwards, during the conversation between the two sides, the tiger tribe leader intentionally or unintentionally asked about Qin Hao's identity. Hong Lie did not say it explicitly, but his words hinted that he had a close relationship with his daughter.

The tiger tribe members understood the situation and drank three cups as punishment, saying that they would just pretend nothing had happened, that the two tribes were still good friends and that their friendship was indestructible.

At this point, the affairs of the Phoenix Clan came to an end.

Considering that Kunlun might target the Phoenix Clan, Qin Hao left a jade token for Hong Lie before leaving. If he encountered any difficulties, he could send a message to him immediately and he would come as quickly as possible.

The representative ability of the Earthly Immortal Realm is flying in the air, while the representative ability of the Heavenly Venerable Realm is space movement.

The perception range of a Tianzun Realm expert is as long as a hundred miles, and they can move to any area within the perception range with a thought. With Qin Hao's current perception ability, even if he is in Dongzhou or other areas, it won't take too much time for him to come over after receiving Hong Lie's message.

With this guarantee, Hong Lie finally felt relieved.

Afterwards, Qin Hao left the Phoenix Nest after taking a last look at Hong Li.

Qin Hao had already communicated with Wang Qi about the matter of the divine weapon. He only told Wang Qi that he knew about it, and did not say anything else. He then assigned him a new mission - to return to Dongzhou and prevent the invasion of the demonic forces.

Although the two did not know the reason, after receiving the order, they still sped up their return to Dongzhou.

After this experience, Qin Hao became much more familiar with Jiutou and finally learned his real name - Jiuyao.

……

While Qin Hao was fighting against the Red Emperor in the Shiwandashan Mountains, the "Grand Court Meeting" of the Ming Dynasty was held as scheduled.

High-ranking officials of the dynasty, princes of the royal family, meritorious officials, and noble families from all over the country came to the capital to pay homage to the emperor.

In the past, after the grand ceremony, the emperor would come out to greet the representatives of all parties to show his affection. But this time, the emperor did not walk down from the high platform, but sat directly at the highest point and called out a person's name.

Li Cunzhi walked out of the crowd slowly, bowed respectfully and said: "I, the foreign minister Li Cunzhi, pay my respects to Your Majesty. Long live Your Majesty, and may the country live forever. I congratulate Your Majesty and Li Ming."

Li Cunzhi behaved extremely respectfully.

However, the high-ranking Emperor Jiajing did not show any joy on his face, but asked about Qin Hao in a cold tone.

"I have summoned your disciple Qin Hao to go north to meet the emperor. Why are you obstructing me?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the meeting room suddenly became quiet and you could hear a pin drop.

Everyone present knew about this matter, and they also knew that the emperor would hold them accountable, and in such a harsh tone. Failure to obey the summons was considered disobedience, and if strictly judged, it would be a crime of extermination of the entire clan. Even now that the Ming Dynasty was weakened, being accused of such a serious crime was extremely dangerous.

The others remained silent, but the officials in the court did not need to be shy and directly criticized Li Cunzhi and the Yuxu Sect.

"Disobeying the emperor's order is a serious crime of deceiving the emperor and must be severely punished!"

"Without severe punishment, we cannot demonstrate the majesty of our country's laws!"

"I ask Your Majesty to punish the Yuxu Sect for the crime of disrespect!"

As the court officials were filled with righteous indignation, they knelt down and begged the emperor to punish the Yuxu Sect as a warning to others. It seemed that if the emperor did not punish the Yuxu Sect, the Ming Dynasty would perish tomorrow.

Emperor Jiajing did not say a word, but just watched everything without changing his expression.

After Li Cunzhi and other officials in the court calmed down for a while, they bowed their heads again and said, "Your Majesty, please allow me to report..."

Afterwards, Li Cunzhi explained that it was not him who was disobeying the emperor's order, but that Qin Hao had disappeared, hoping to gain the emperor's forgiveness.

But the emperor was obviously not satisfied with this. His terrifying imperial power was faintly revealed, and he said, "Lord Li, I can trust you, but will Lin Danhan believe you?"

Li Cunzhi was speechless.

At this time, a minister came out and severely reprimanded Li Cunzhi: "Your disciple Qin Hao acted recklessly in Beizhou, causing Lin Danhan to march south in large numbers. The people in the northern border areas all died because of him. The court only asked you to hand over that disciple to the north for questioning, but you gathered people to resist. Do you still have His Majesty in your heart? Do you still have the Liming Dynasty? Do you still regard yourselves as citizens of the dynasty?"

The people present had different expressions when they heard this, and many even showed contempt.

Regardless of whether Qin Hao caused trouble in Beizhou, even if he did, so what. The Ming Dynasty was founded to drive out the northern captives, and they were irreconcilable. Now questioning about this is really humiliating.

Which dynasty would sacrifice its people in exchange for peace?

If this is the case, who would be willing to go north for the country and fight against the barbarians in the future?

Li Cunzhi had no way to answer this question, and could only say: "Every word I said is true, please understand, Your Majesty."

Seeing this, Emperor Jiajing snorted coldly and said, "Since you are so sure, go to Xuanfu and persuade Ligdan Khan. If you can make him withdraw his troops, I will not pursue the matter any further."

After saying this, he turned away.

Li Cunzhi knelt on the ground with a dark look in his eyes.

Others stayed in the venue for a long time with different thoughts, asking for news, and only left when the time was almost up.
