In Bai Laodao's hand, he held the token of the Dragon Guarding Pavilion. The materials for refining the token are extremely special and cannot be copied.

Even though Zhang Ruochen had never seen a member of the Dragon Guarding Pavilion, he still had to admit his identity.

Who would have thought that the legendary Dragon Guarding Pavilion actually exists?

Zhang Ruochen returned the token to Zhao Qing and asked, "Where are the other members of the Dragon Guarding Pavilion?"

Although Zhang Ruochen's cultivation is still very low, Zhao Yan was very respectful to him and did not dare to offend him, saying, "The members of the Dragon Guarding Pavilion are all over the Kunlun Realm, each with different identities and tasks. Only the Pavilion Master knows the identities of everyone."

Zhang Ruochen frowned slightly and asked again: "What mysterious mission does the Dragon Guarding Pavilion have?"

Zhao Yan shook his head and smiled: "Report to your highness, the general only knows that his task is to guard the royal tomb forest, and does not know the tasks of others. However, the Lord of the Pavilion must know."

Zhang Ruochen asked other questions, such as where is the Lord of the Dragon Guardian Pavilion? Eight hundred years ago, did the Dragon Guardian take away the treasury of the Central Empire of Shengming?

However, Zhao Ying knew very little, and Zhang Ruochen did not ask for any substantial useful information.

Zhao Qing told Zhang Ruochen that his master was dead. When he was dying, he only explained his way to contact the Lord of the Dragon Guardian Pavilion. He could only use it when encountering the most urgent situation. At other times, the Lord of the Dragon Guardian Pavilion took the initiative to contact him.

Zhang Ruochen did not ask Zhao Qing to contact the Lord of the Dragon Guarding Pavilion, not that he did not want to recall the members of the Dragon Guarding Pavilion, but felt that the time was not yet ripe.

Now, the situation in Kunlun Realm is changing very quickly, with undercurrents surging, and unpredictable disasters may occur at any time.

The more the noise the person makes, the more attention he will be, and the faster he dies.

Kong Lanyou said: "Actually, my cousin can also recall the members of the Dragon Guardian Pavilion. As long as you raise your arms and shout, with the support of the Dragon Guardian Pavilion and Mingtang, plus the descendants of the Zhang royal family and old subordinates, how can we completely take down the Shengming City, rebuild the Shengming Central Empire, and be called emperor in one fell swoop, and fight against Chi Yao's first Central Empire."

Immediately afterwards, she said: "Now, the army of the court has been restrained by the undead in the eastern region, the southern region, and the undead blood clan in the northern region, and there is no time to deal with us. We are just taking the opportunity to grow, expand our territory, and completely collapse the First Central Empire."

Zhang Ruochen shook his head and said, "Your idea is good, but it's a pity that you only stop on the surface when considering the problem."

Kong Lanyou bit her lips and showed an angry look, feeling that Zhang Ruochen was too disrespectful to her.

After all, she is also the Saint Ancestor of Mingtang. She has eight hundred years of experience and has a mysterious cultivation level. Everyone is afraid of it. However, Zhang Ruochen still regards her as a teenage girl and directly refutes her suggestions.

"Are you very unwilling to accept it? Then I will analyze it for you to see the situation today."

Zhang Ruochen said: "First, whether it is the undead in the Eastern Region, the Dead Zen Sect in the Southern Region, or the Undead Vampire in the Northern Region, they are actually not opponents of the First Central Empire at all. As long as Chi Yao makes up her mind and wants to destroy them, it doesn't take much power at all."

Kong Lanyou naturally knew how terrifying the foundation of the First Central Empire was, and also knew how terrible Chi Yao's cultivation was, but he still didn't understand what Zhang Ruochen meant and showed a look of confusion.

"It's just a truth, is it that difficult to tell it?" Zhang Ruochen was very puzzled.

What exactly does Kong Lanyou want to hide, and why is he unwilling to say it?

Eight hundred years have passed, many things have been born and have become the past, and there is still the need to conceal it?

Kong Lanyou shook his head vigorously and said, "Please, cousin, don't force me, okay? When I think I can tell you, I will definitely say everything." "Okay, I won't force you." Zhang Ruochen sighed.

Finally, Kong Lanyou breathed a little relieved. He didn't want to hide what happened back then, but he had to hide it.

There are some things that are not as simple as the surface.

Kong Lanyou said: "I am the saint of Mingtang. As long as I am willing, I can order all departments of Mingtang. Cousin, no matter when you want to rebuild the Central Empire of Shengming, I will go and support you as soon as possible."

With Kong Lanyou's current cultivation and identity, Zhang Ruochen was naturally very moved.

However, Mingtang and the old subordinates who were loyal to the Central Empire of Shengming had long broken apart and had deep hatred between them. Even if they were forcibly integrated, they would definitely lay hidden dangers.

In Zhang Ruochen's view, instead of doing this, it is better to do all the best to develop Mingzong and cultivate a force that truly belongs to you.

Zhang Ruochen did not ask Kong Lanyou if his identity was leaked, it was related to her. Because he had already believed that Kong Lanyou would never do such a thing.

Then, there is only one person left, Kong Hongbi.

"Kong Hongbi probably just wants to use other forces to find me out, and he may not really know my identity." Zhang Ruochen said intimately.

Kong Lanyou saw a cold light flashing in Zhang Ruochen's eyes, so he asked, "Cousin, what are you thinking?"

"nothing."

Zhang Ruochen smiled slightly and did not express the grudge between him and Kong Hongbi.

When Zhang Ruochen does things, he never likes to rely on the power of others. If he can solve things himself, he must do it himself.

Only when one is strong is truly powerful.

In the next period, Zhang Ruochen stayed in the royal tomb forest, not only guarding the tomb for his mother, but also practicing and improving his cultivation.

By refining divine blood, Zhang Ruochen's cultivation level successfully broke through to the peak of the fifth-level half-saint.

On this day, Zhao Ying brought a message, "Mingtang has caused civil strife, and the imperial army is gathering, and is preparing to take this opportunity to destroy Mingtang in one fell swoop."

The interior of Mingtang is not an ironclad piece, and there are more than a dozen forces from the previous dynasties. Peacock Villa is just the largest one.

Each force has different interests, and it is not impossible to break up civil unrest.

Upon hearing the news, Kong Lanyou was about to go back and said, "Cousin, come back to Mingtang with me? When I quell the civil strife, I can support you as the master of Mingtang."

"no."

Huang Yanchen walked out and immediately objected, saying, "Mingtang had just broken out, and the imperial army had gathered. Is it too strange? I suspect that this matter is related to the queen. She left the Central Imperial City and was likely to be preparing to clear the Mingtang first. At this time, Brother Chen and you will return to Mingtang, wouldn't it be quite dangerous?"

Kong Lanyou pondered carefully, feeling that Huang Yanchen's words were not completely unreasonable, and said, "Cousin, I will come to you when I calm down the internal strife in Mingtang."

Zhang Ruochen also thought this was strange, but he also knew that Kong Lanyou had to rush back because the tribe members of Peacock Villa were still in Mingtang.

Eight hundred years have passed, and Kong Lanyou has indeed not changed, but the responsibilities she bears have become very heavy.

He is no longer just an innocent little girl, nor is he just Zhang Ruochen's cousin, but the Holy Ancestor of Mingtang.

"Lan You!"

Zhang Ruochen called her, reminded her, "Be careful. If you see Chi Yao, don't fight against her. Sooner or later, I will go to her palace in person and make her pay the price she deserves."
