90: Chapter 90 Unexpected Event: Daqian Joins Forces with the Three Kingdoms of the Northern Frontier

On the third day after Xia Jin returned to Great Xia, in the pavilion in the backyard of Jin Wang Palace.

A green, vibrant light on Xia Jin's fingertips slowly dissipated.

Opposite him, Eunuch Wei and Su Xuanji, who were sitting cross-legged, opened their eyes at the same time.

At this moment, the Qi surrounding them was churning and billowing, significantly more powerful than before, by several times over. After exchanging a glance, both of their faces were filled with irrepressible excitement.

"Great Grandmaster Ninth Layer! I actually broke through three levels in a row, jumping from Great Grandmaster Sixth Layer to Great Grandmaster Ninth Layer all at once!?" Eunuch Wei looked at the surging True Qi within his body, still finding it hard to believe.

Xia Jin looked at the two who had broken through, and a relaxed smile could not help but appear on his face.

He had not expected that after breaking through to the Land Immortal Realm, using the Nine Turns Creation Sutra to cleanse the marrow and refine the bones for others would become so effortless.

According to his estimation, at this rate, it would not be long before he could create a group of elite secret guards for Great Xia, numbering in the hundreds, all of whom would be in the Great Grandmaster Realm!

This would be a force capable of easily intimidating the Eastern Region.

"Master! Thank you!" Eunuch Wei was the first to stand up. He did not say anything else and bowed deeply to Xia Jin. But seeing his slightly trembling hands, it was clear just how excited he was at this moment.

When Eunuch Wei's words rang out, Su Xuanji also recovered from her dream-like state. She stood up and bowed gracefully: "Xuanji thanks you, Your Highness!"

However, as she looked at Xia Jin, a hint of resentment was always hidden deep in her eyes.

This blockhead; he must have known her feelings long ago, yet he always deliberately chose to ignore them.

"No need for formalities! Ahem, ahem..." Xia Jin glanced at Su Xuanji's resentful expression and could only deliberately cough a few times to maintain his composure.

Just then, a series of hurried footsteps suddenly rang out, causing Xia Jin and the others to look ahead. They saw Commander Qin Hu running toward them in a hurry with a letter in his hand: "Your Highness! Your Highness! It's bad! Something has happened!"

Watching the panting Commander Qin Hu, Xia Jin could not help but frown. "Commander Qin Hu, why are you so flustered?"

Commander Qin Hu hurriedly handed the letter to Xia Jin: "Your Highness, the Central Region... a major change has occurred in the Central Region!"

Xia Jin took the letter and his gaze quickly scanned the few lines of text; his expression suddenly became uncertain.

"The Great Qian Dynasty... and the Three Northern Frontier Kingdoms have actually mobilized their troops at the same time to attack the Lieyang Dynasty? What exactly is going on?"

He handed the secret letter to Leng Yuexi and the others, who were looking puzzled, while he himself fell into deep thought.

Logically speaking, he had just beheaded the Great Qian Dynasty's Land Immortal Old Ancestor, Lu Tiancheng, which was equivalent to severely weakening Great Qian's top combat power. Moreover, Great Qian was currently in the midst of a struggle for the succession among the princes, and the Lieyang Dynasty and the Three Northern Frontier Kingdoms had already planted many people, with even the Crown Prince and the Second Prince colluding with these enemy nations.

It should have been the Lieyang Dynasty and the Three Northern Frontier Kingdoms joining forces to attack the Great Qian Dynasty!

Why has it turned around now?

"The Central Region... has suddenly become this chaotic?" A look of surprise flashed across Leng Yuexi's face, and she did not know whether this was a good or bad thing for Great Xia, which was about to unify the Eastern Region.

Eunuch Wei and Su Xuanji, who subsequently saw the contents of the letter, were even more shocked.

For a time, the atmosphere in the pavilion became heavy, and everyone's eyes could not help but focus on Xia Jin. After all, only Xia Jin of today could possibly control the development of the Eastern Region.

Xia Jin remained silent, and after a long while, he slowly spoke: "Regardless of how the Central Region turns out, or how chaotic it becomes, Great Xia's plan remains unchanged! Unify the entire Eastern Region within three months!"

"Little Wei, as I told you before, within half a month, select two hundred candidates with excellent aptitudes, and most importantly, absolute loyalty, and bring them here. Remember, better to have nothing than to have substandard ones!"

"Yes! Master! I guarantee I will complete your task, Master!" Eunuch Wei nodded with a serious expression.

"Half a month later, I will personally cleanse the marrow and refine the bones for all of them to lay a Foundation. As for the subsequent specific training and daily drills, I will leave that entirely to you, Yue Xi." Xia Jin then looked at Leng Yuexi, who was sitting beside him.

"Rest assured, Husband."

"Cult Leader Su," Xia Jin finally looked at Su Xuanji, "Your mission remains unchanged. Continue to closely monitor the movements of the remaining four kingdoms in the Eastern Region, especially the Yuehua Dynasty that borders the Great Qian Dynasty! If there is any unusual movement, report it immediately. With chaos in the Central Region, it is hard to guarantee that no one will want to take the opportunity to fish in troubled waters in the Eastern Region."

Su Xuanji suppressed the chaotic thoughts in her heart and replied solemnly: "Xuanji understands, I will definitely keep a close watch on Yuehua."

"Alright," Xia Jin waved his hand, "You may all go and attend to your business. If there are any important matters, discuss them with me later."

"Yes!" Eunuch Wei, Su Xuanji, and Commander Qin Hu saluted together and then hurried away.

Soon, only Xia Jin and Leng Yuexi remained in the pavilion.

Leng Yuexi quietly walked behind Xia Jin and reached out to massage his temples: "Husband... although you said that just now, in your heart, you are actually worried about something, right?"

Xia Jin closed his eyes, enjoying the warmth from Leng Yuexi's fingertips. A moment later, he reached out and took hold of Leng Yuexi's wrist, gently pulling her into his arms.

He held the beauty in his arms, but his gaze was cast toward the high sky, watching the slowly drifting white clouds, and he spoke indifferently: "Great Qian and Lieyang are hereditary enemies with deep-seated grievances; it is not strange for the two to meet on the battlefield. But those Three Northern Frontier Kingdoms..."

"Their resources are relatively scarce, and they have always regarded the wealthy Great Qian as a piece of fat meat on their lips, attempting to invade the south time and again, although they have been repeatedly frustrated. Now, they are actually able to let go of their greed for Great Qian and join forces with it to attack Lieyang..."

"Hmm? Husband, what do you think is the reason for this?" Leng Yuexi asked softly, leaning in Xia Jin's arms.

"There are no more than two possibilities," Xia Jin's eyes narrowed slightly, "Either the Great Qian Dynasty has offered conditions that the Three Northern Frontier Kingdoms simply cannot refuse, or..."

His gaze suddenly became sharp: "It is that within the territory of the Lieyang Dynasty, perhaps something has appeared, the value of which is great enough to make the Great Qian Dynasty and the Three Northern Frontier Kingdoms temporarily put aside their old grievances to join forces to take down Lieyang first!"

Upon hearing this, Leng Yuexi's heart was suddenly shaken.

"Hmm," Xia Jin was silent for a moment, then nodded slightly, "And I am more inclined to the latter."

"Then... Husband, do you already have a plan in your heart?" Leng Yuexi raised her head, her gaze looking at Xia Jin.

"A plan?... Not for the moment. But since such an abnormal thing has occurred, I cannot just stand by and watch."

He gently lifted Leng Yuexi's chin and said word by word:

"I intend to personally go to the Lieyang Dynasty to see what is hidden there that could make the Great Qian Dynasty and the Three Northern Frontier Kingdoms mobilize such large forces."

"If something has really appeared that can tempt both the Great Qian Dynasty and the Three Northern Frontier Kingdoms, then I want a share of the spoils too!"
