Heavenly Dao Formula

Is that so!

The Privy Council unexpectedly missed a listener, and it was right under their noses.

Qian Yan suddenly used a gentle tone, "If the living dead came to Jinxia City, the Privy Council took the opportunity to attack you and asked you to hand over all the living dead, what would you do?"

"This...Master Qianyan," Fang Xiandao coughed, "It seems inappropriate for you to ask Fu Cheng such a question?"

"Of course not." Xia Fan replied directly, "Since I invited you here, I will naturally be responsible to you. Even if a living dead violates the law, it should be tried by the Jinxia Affairs Bureau."

The more Qian Yan looked at the other party, the more satisfied he became, "I wonder if Mr. Xia is married?"

"Pfft—" Fang Xiandao and Xia Fan were both choked.

Especially the latter.

Why is this question asked twice in one day? Is today a special day?

Xia Fan wiped the corner of his mouth, "Uh...Although I'm not married, I haven't considered this issue yet."

"Really? If there is, remember to tell me."

Qian Yan glanced at the eldest disciple, Fang Yanni already had her own heart, but there are still many girls among the 17th and 18th generation disciples of the Fang family to choose from. No matter what era, marriage is always the fastest way to shorten the distance between the two parties s method.

"Master Qianyan, why are you mentioning this at this time...it's too rude," Fang Yanni said urgently.

"Just asking by the way." She waved her hand, indicating that she knew how to measure, "Since I heard a lot of interesting news from Mr. Xia today, let me give back a little bit. Do you know why the Privy Council is trying to follow the listener? ?”

"Because...will lead to the subjugation of the country?" Xia Fan replied using the princess's rhetoric.

"Of course not. Let's not talk about Yongguo first. Even the current Daqi should have listeners other than you. But the court is still doing well, and it won't disappear just because of one or two listeners." Qian Yan He leaned back in his chair, "The reason why the Privy Council concealed the information is to make it easier for the listeners to expose it—because most alchemists don't know about this matter, it is naturally difficult to take precautions."

"What about after exposure?"

"You will be arrested by a team consisting of two green swords, two guards, and several fifth-rank alchemists. This is the experience gained during the Yongguo period—although the official titles are different, the overall strength is roughly the same."

"Two green swords?" Xia Fan said in shock, "Is this bigger than the battle against evil spirits?"

"No one is afraid of evil spirits." Qianyan chuckled, "I have also arrested a listener who resisted King Yong with Fang's family. Even if there are two green swords sitting in the town, it is not a sure chance of victory. In the end, one person died and the other Only at the cost of injury did he kill the listener."

Is the original listener so strong?

Xia Fan thought to himself, after all, he had never seen Luo Qingqing fighting with all his might.

"Why?" Fang Xiandao couldn't help but asked, "Isn't the listener also an alchemist?"

"But they got incredible spells. At that time, people called this spell magic." Qian Yan glanced at Xia Fan, "Besides, not every listener will get magic spells, and there are some like you, Someone who hears some kind of secret, lore, or an incomprehensible whisper. But such people are usually less harmful and much less documented."

"...Why did the Privy Council arrest the Listener?" Xia Fan was puzzled.

"Naturally, it is for fairy art. Generally speaking, this kind of art is directly engraved in the mind, and it is extremely difficult to pass it on to others. However, in the last ten years of Yongguo, this obstacle has been broken through. With the help of the power of chaos, alchemists It is possible to transfer the consciousness containing the spell, at the cost of the previous owner's life." Qian Yan said slowly, "Although I don't know if the current Privy Council is also inheriting this method, but considering the power of the spell, they It’s not surprising that you want to bring it back to the government.”

Xia Fan originally wanted to ask if this matter could not be discussed, but he soon realized that this was a wall of suspicion. Because if the listener is to be exposed as soon as possible, the information must be limited; and the opacity of the information will definitely lead to mistrust. Unless the Privy Council adopts a laissez-faire attitude towards the owner of the fairy art, the suspicion between them will be difficult to break.

"It turns out that there is such a reason behind it." Xia Fan let out a sigh of relief. Ning Wanjun also knew about the listener, but he didn't know why the Privy Council wanted to control the listener. Now he finally had a general outline in his mind. As expected of a living dead whose memory has never been interrupted, it can be called a walking history book. "Didn't Yongguo's control over listeners be so strict before? It sounds like this content seemed to be common sense a hundred years ago."

"Common sense is not counted, but after working in the court for a long time, you can basically inquire about it. After all, King Yong himself is a powerful listener. It is rumored that the secret records he has mastered can even fill a treasure house. Naturally, there is no need for other listeners. So afraid." Qian Yan curled his lips, "It's a pity that after his dynasty collapsed, these secret records have disappeared."

Xia Fan could imagine it.

At any rate, Yongguo at that time was equivalent to the sum of the current six kingdoms, plus there were always people who were willing to dedicate their spells to the royal family, so they should be able to save a lot over time.

"You said before that the crisis facing Yongguo has never been resolved, so you can always tell me what it is now?"

Qian Yan was silent for a while, "This matter... I only know a rough idea. Some people think that the fairy arts that the listener accidentally obtained all come from the "Day of Heaven"-that is the place where chaos first opened, and it is the place where Qi and integration starting point. Whoever can master the mysteries of the way of heaven first will gain power beyond imagination, and even live forever. "

"This...is a bit mysterious."

"It doesn't matter if it's mysterious or not. The key is that there are similar legends circulating in other places. Whether it is the land of the West Pole separated by a long desert, or the caravan traveling across the snowy field in the north, they have all heard more or less the same. It's just that they don't use the word Tiandao."

"Hmm..." Xia Fan pondered for a while, "Where is the crisis?"

"Have you ever thought that there are many races in this world that are very different from us, and among them there are also people who are sensitive. As long as the race continues, conflicts are inevitable. When disputes arise, alchemists and magicians The power of law will determine the trend of the battle situation, which has been verified by countless bloody battles." Qian Yan said in a deep voice, "but if other people first find the place where the law of heaven is, and gain the power to control all laws, what do you think next? what happens?"

"Those who are enemies will be wiped out, and the kingdom and even the ethnic group may cease to exist. This is a crisis that no one can avoid."

...

Back at the residence, Fang Xiandao couldn't help asking Qianyan, "Why didn't the old lady tell me about this?"

"So what can you do if you know?" Qian Yan said calmly, "It's impossible to tell the truth about the Dao of Heaven, and you don't even know whether it's true or not. As for the news of the listener, only the Patriarch is qualified to know. If you are not careful If you miss out, the entire Fang family may be implicated."

"But I'm not the head of the family yet."

"Then you should work hard towards the direction of the Patriarch." Qian Yan yawned, "Also prepare ink, pen and paper for me, I want to write a letter and send it back to the Fang family."

"Let me do it." Fang Yanni quickly followed suit.

"Is there something wrong with the Fang family?" Fang Xiandao asked after being silent for a while.

"Why do you say that?"

"I always feel that your inquiries and responses are too urgent."

Qian Yan glanced at him unexpectedly, then raised the corner of his mouth, "It seems that Fang Jiuzhang and Fang Yu have also recruited some good seedlings."

"No way... Could it be that those two people really—" Fang Xiandao became anxious.

"Don't worry, Fang Yu taught you the first-hand divination. Even if you are alive, she will have no problems." Qian Yan interrupted, "Speaking of which, don't you never care about the situation of the Fang family? Fang Yu He also said that when you left Gyeonggi without saying goodbye, you didn't even say hello to your family, just like an unfilial son."

"This, this is two different things!" Fang Xian said goodbye and turned his head, "So there is nothing going on in Lingzhou?"

"Not now, doesn't mean there won't be in the future." Qian Yan sighed silently, "Using your words, the doom is imminent."
