"Don't worry! Since our Hidden Palace has accepted the task, we will definitely complete it! However, in view of the current situation changes, the previously agreed price and time must also change!" Jueying's tone revealed a tone that could not be refuted.

Youmo Dun hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Just say it!"

"The time limit has been extended to three months. As for the reward, I want one billion!"

"What?!" Yumoton jumped up. After hesitating for a moment, he said, "Okay! But what if the time limit is exceeded and the task is not completed?" Yumoton stared at Jueying.

Jueying said confidently: "That's impossible! But since you asked that, I will give you an answer. If the mission fails, I will return the commission!"

“What you say is unfounded!”

Jueying sneered, took out the magic contract, and made a new contract with Yumoton. The original contract was naturally invalidated.

Yumo Dun came out of the gate, took a deep breath, and cursed in his mind. Returning to the mansion, Yumo Dun thought for a moment, and then rushed to the palace.

The other side.

After Duan Tao and Xiaopang entered the Northeastern provinces, they headed towards Yate along the main road. Yate is located in the center of the Northeastern provinces and is the administrative and economic center of the Northeastern provinces. It is also the command post of the Eastern Army and the garrison of the Northeastern provinces.

location.

He didn't go far before he ran towards a group of cavalry.

The cavalry surrounded Duan Tao and Xiaopang. Just when the two were about to take action, an officer stepped out and asked, "Excuse me, are you Mr. Duan Tao?"

Seeing that the other party was so polite, Duan Tao couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, thinking that this was already the boundary of the Northeastern provinces. "I am Duan Tao, and you are..."

Before Duan Tao finished speaking, the officer showed an expression of surprise. He immediately jumped off his horse and bowed to Duan Tao: "Captain Huang Ping pays homage to you!" Immediately after, all the sergeants jumped off their horses to salute. Everyone saluted.

He looked very excited.

Duan Tao said quickly: "Okay, okay! You guys make me very uncomfortable! Get up quickly!"

The soldiers laughed and stood up.

Duan Tao asked: "Has General Meng Tian returned?"

Huang Ping nodded, "We were out of danger last night! Now we are in the military camp not far ahead! Sir, please follow me!"

Before Duan Tao's feet even entered the big tent, he felt a fragrant wind coming towards him, and then the warm fragrance of soft jade squeezed into his arms. Duan Tao was stunned for a moment, and looked at the beauty in his arms stupidly.

He smiled very honestly.

Loulan realized that she had lost her composure, and quickly left Duan Tao's arms. She glanced at Duan Tao with a complicated expression, her face suddenly turned red, and she turned around and ran away.

Meng Tian walked up and said with a smile: "Little brother, if you don't come back, my silly daughter will not be able to sit still!"

Duan Tao smiled. At this time, Kelly and other angel guards broke in from outside. They couldn't help but get excited when they saw Duan Tao. Duan Tao finally calmed down the excited people.

"Little brother, I'm really worried about what accident will happen to you! Especially after seeing the energy ball rising from the direction of the valley! By the way, who did you meet?"

"It's nothing! They're just a few paid killers! They're from the Hidden Palace!..."

"Hidden Palace!?" Meng Tian was surprised.

Duan Tao nodded and thought: "The leader is called Yin Sha. I also know two of the other three, one is Blood Wing and the other is Li Ax!"

Meng Tian frowned and said: "There are eight great killing gods in the Hidden Palace. It is said that each of them has the strength above the holy level! Unexpectedly, they actually sent out four killing gods this time! It seems that they are bound to win!"

Duan Tao said nonchalantly: "It doesn't matter! He has been beaten back by Xiaopang and I!"

Meng Tian shook his head and said: "They will not give up! I'm worried that if they fail in the assassination, they will send out troops in the name of counterinsurgency! What worries me even more is that they may join forces with the orc army outside the fortress!"

Duan Tao nodded, "Did uncle get any information?"

Meng Tian took out a short note and handed it to Duan Tao, "This is the intelligence we just received from the northern fortress!"

Duan Tao read it again and frowned: "The orc army has started to gather again?"

Meng Tian nodded, "There are only two reasons for the orc army to regroup. One is to break through the northern fortress during the civil strife in the empire, and the other is to reach some kind of agreement with Aikla."

Duan Tao snorted coldly, "Betray the Northeastern provinces!"

Meng Tian sighed, "I didn't expect that things would develop to this point!"

Duan Tao said: "Uncle, don't worry too much! I believe that as long as we deal with the current crisis, the situation will get better!"

Meng Tian nodded, "I hope so! We must rush back to Yate as soon as possible!"

Duan Tao nodded and said: "Since it can't be delayed, let's not delay!"

Meng Tian immediately called an officer and ordered: "Prepare fast horses for us immediately!" "Yes!" the officer promised and immediately exited the tent.

Soon after, thirty-two angel guards including Duan Tao, Meng Tian, ​​Loulan, Mengduo, Xiaopang and Kaili galloped on the road to Yate. Loulan's face was still flushed, and her beautiful eyes were rippling.

A little shy, Mengduo, who was racing alongside Loulan, looked at his sister from time to time, making Loulan even more shy.

At the same time, the Emperor of the Tanre Empire announced to the imperial court and the public in Aikla that Meng Tian and his Eastern Army and the Northeastern Province Guards were rebels.

An army of 100,000 troops marched against the northeastern provinces. There was an uproar between the government and the public in Than Shwe, and almost everyone felt extremely uneasy.

Just when Emperor Tanre was swearing to go out for war, the 300,000 orcs army outside the northern fortress, which had stopped attacking for some time, once again launched a fierce attack on the northern fortress. The orcs' offensive was extremely fierce, and the orcs' combat power was obviously superior to that of human soldiers. Although

The Eastern Legion relied on strong walls and fortresses, but it was very difficult to resist. Fortunately, there were a large number of magic cannons deployed on the northern fortress. The orcs who attacked the northern fortress like a tide were scattered with flesh and blood in the halo of the magic cannons.

That night, Duan Tao and his party rushed to Yate. Duan Tao and others were then taken into the backyard of the General's Mansion, while Meng Tian went straight towards the hall.

Duan Tao sat on the grass of the pond, looking at the two bright moons in the sky. The resolute look on his face had long since disappeared, and the traces of his usual idleness had disappeared, replaced by a melancholy look, as if he was suppressing many thoughts in his heart.

At this time, Lou Lan came to the lotus pond and saw Duan Tao not far away. Her eyes were filled with joy, and then her face turned red. Noticing the melancholy face under the moonlight, Lou Lan couldn't help but feel a tremble in her heart, and a maternal feeling came over her.

He thought to himself and thought to himself: "Does he also have something on his mind?" He hesitated and walked towards Duan Tao.

Duan Tao noticed someone coming next to him and couldn't help but come back to his senses. He turned around and looked around, and couldn't help but be startled. Under the moonlight, the Loulan was as beautiful and refined as a bright orchid.

When Lou Lan saw Duan Tao looking at her blankly, she couldn't help but blush, and mustered up the courage to call out, "Brother Tao!"

Duan Tao chuckled and patted the grass beside him, "Sit down!"

Loulan felt nervous for no reason and Yiyan sat down next to Duan Tao.

The two were silent for a moment, and the atmosphere was a bit ambiguous. At this time, in a bush not far away, two heads were looking furtively towards Duan Tao.

"Brother, are you, are you worried about anything?" Loulan asked curiously.

Duan Tao was stunned for a moment and asked instead: "Why did you ask me that?"

Lou Lan whispered: "I saw you looking very troubled just now?"

Duan Tao chuckled and said, "Actually, it's nothing! Don't worry!... Lou Lan, you didn't seem to care about me so much in the past?"

Loulan's face turned red and she said nothing.

Duan Tao couldn't help but feel his heart tremble.

The two of them sat quietly, without speaking. There was a lingering affection between them.

After a while, Lou Lan stood up with a red face and said in a voice like a mosquito: "Brother Tao, I, I'm leaving!"

Duan Tao stood up and said with a smile: "I'll give it to you!"

Loulan's cheeks turned redder, she glanced at Duan Tao quickly, lowered her head and said, "No! Thank you!" After saying that, she turned around and trotted away.

Duan Tao looked at Lou Lan's back and sighed with emotion. Suddenly he felt movement in the trees not far away, and immediately knew what was going on. He couldn't help but feel a little funny. "What else are you hiding? Come out!"

"Duan Tao said angrily.

As soon as Duan Tao finished speaking, two guys, Xiaopang and Mengduo, came jostlingly from the bushes. Xiaopang pointed at Mengduo and said loudly: "It's him! It was his idea!"

Mengduo jumped up, "No way! Even if you are a dragon, you can't tell lies with your eyes open!"

Duan Tao drove the two funny guys Xiaopang and Mengduo back, looked at the backs of the two guys, smiled and shook his head.

Duan Tao took a deep breath and walked towards his room. When he saw Meng Tian coming to the backyard, he went to greet him.

"uncle!"

"My dear nephew, haven't you rested yet?" Meng Tian said with a smile.

"Not yet! Uncle, if you can be of any use to me, just ask! Although I won't be able to help you in a big way, there should be no problem in helping you in a small way!"

Meng Tian patted Duan Tao on the shoulder and laughed, "Thank you, nephew! But uncle can handle the matter at hand!..." He winked at Duan Tao and said meaningfully: "Just take good care of my daughter for me.

Yes!" Duan Tao was stunned, then smiled and asked: "Uncle, do you mind that I already have several wives?"

Meng Tian said indifferently: "Lan'er has already told me! It's normal for a real man to have three wives and four concubines! However, if you dare to be sorry to Lan'er, I can't forgive you!"

Duan Tao said seriously: "Don't worry, uncle! Lan Lan will definitely become the happiest woman in the world!"

Meng Tian nodded happily, showing the unique love of a father, "Actually, the thing I am most worried about is Lan'er! She is like a flower that has not experienced any wind and frost!..." smiled and looked at

He glanced at Duan Tao and said with a smile: "Of course, I don't want Lan'er to go through any hardships!" Duan Tao smiled knowingly.

Meng Tian said: "...I hope Lan'er can find a good home. I'm glad that the man she likes is really good!"

Duan Tao touched his chin and laughed, "Uncle, I'm blushing when you say that!"

Meng Tian laughed, "You kid can blush too?!"

Duan Tao asked with a depressed look: "I'm talking about uncle, what do you mean by this?"

"Damn it! Stop pretending in front of me, you idiot!"
