Chapter 144 Disciple Cang Xing, met Lord Martial Saint! (triple)
Inside the palace.
After Wen Xian issued an imperial decree to blockade Zangfeng Prefecture and encircle and suppress the rebels led by Wen Pei, he dismissed other ministers.
Only the body that was strictly controlled by Huangfu was left, looking at Wenxian.
Wenxian sat at the top and leaned back. His wrinkled and angry face relaxed, and he suddenly became a little tired.
His sinister eyes passed through the study window and looked at the invisible Ancestral Temple in the distance.
Wenxian suddenly said tiredly and in a hoarse old voice:
"Uncle, tell me, why did Saint help Wen Pei? Obviously I am the orthodox one and I am the imperial power. My country of Yang has worshiped her for so many years. What Saint should have maintained is my rule."
The biological mother of Wenxian and Wen Ping was the biological sister of Emperor Fuyan of the Shennong Division, Si Zheng, and this was one of the ties that tied the Shennong Division to the Yang Kingdom's royal family.
Moreover, Wenxian and Huangfu Yan had a good relationship in private. Wenxian even changed his name to "I".
The civil servant below held up his head, turned towards the window, narrowed his eyes and said:
"Your Majesty, Saint is also a human being. The so-called 'saint' is someone who is superior to all living beings, not perfect."
"If Your Majesty knew the 'Tao' of Saint Wangshu, you wouldn't be surprised why she did this."
Wenxian was stunned for a moment, then sat upright: "What is her 'Tao'? My uncle never told me."
Wangshu retreated to the Ancestral Temple all year round and rarely took action. Even the royal family of the Yang Kingdom had almost vague records and understanding of her.
Naturally, few people know what her "Tao" is.
Huangfu said sternly: "It's 'love'."
"She was guarding Yang Kingdom because of her 'love' for Taizu, and now she takes action... I'm afraid that something about Wen Pei may have touched her 'love'."
"Her action is to practice her own 'Tao', and it has nothing to do with Yang Guo, you, or Wen Pei."
"Besides, she didn't really take action this time, she just gave Wen Pei a test."
Huangfu Yan looked at his nephew above him again:
"Similarly, this is also a test for His Majesty."
Wenxian's pupils tightened and he immediately understood:
"Zangfeng Prefecture is the training ground!"
Huangfu Yan chuckled: "It might also be... a hunting ground."
"Wen Pei's prey is the longevity medicine, and our prey is Wen Pei."
Wen Xian said in a deep voice: "We must not let Wen Pei get the elixir of longevity, otherwise, Saint Wangshu may really take action. By then... who can compete?"
Saint is a big mountain pressing on top of your head.
It can block wind and rain and shelter a country, but it can also crush everyone below.
Huangfu said solemnly: "There is one more thing that I haven't had time to report to Your Majesty, but the changes now force me to say it."
He paused and said:
"The secret realm in the Yong'an River has been closed, and the one who obtained the 'retrospective bell'... was not Shennongsi."
"..." Wen Xian's face turned dark.
If it weren't for his uncle on the other side, he would have picked up the thing at hand and smashed it over by now.
The Yong'an River secret realm is an ancient secret realm that was discovered only in recent months.
It can almost be traced back to the period of the Emperor of China.
The source of the secret realm is a magical Spiritual Treasure called the "Return Bell".
This object has great Divine Ability, can trace life and death, and manifest the bardo.
In short, it means that the souls of the deceased who have dispersed between heaven and earth can be recalled back to the human world for their own use!
When such a treasure appeared in the Yang Kingdom, the Shennong Division would not let it go and immediately sent people to station and investigate.
The flood phenomenon in Yong'an Prefecture was precisely due to the birth of the "Returning Bell", which caused all the rivers in the prefecture to flow backwards.
The countercurrent here is not from west to east, but from east to west.
But from the land, countercurrent to the sky!
And almost all of them gathered in the sky above the secret realm!
But how can the sky hold tens of millions of tons of river water?
As a result, the river embankment broke and the water flooded thousands of miles.
A catastrophe happened like this.
But because the secret realm has been opened, Shennongsi does not want this treasure to fall into the hands of other forces, and the Yang Kingdom court does not want to attract other countries to take advantage of it.
Therefore, they could only block the news of Yong'an Prefecture first, and the court could not issue relief funds for the time being.
Suppress the news of the emergence of this secret realm to the minimum impact.
As for the destabilizing factors that may result from the disaster, resulting in numerous casualties and deprivation of livelihood for the people?
It doesn't matter, just let a few vicious monsters go and kill them.
These ordinary people will immediately understand who they should rely on, and they have to beg the imperial court to send Shen Nongsi to take action.
That's what Wenxian originally thought, and it wasn't a big deal.
But now, after spending so much effort, he got nothing... which really made Wenxian feel a little embarrassed.
Wen Xianpi smiled and said, "Uncle, I don't think he really likes to joke with me that much, does he?"
The corpse under Huangfu's strict control blinked and said, "Of course it's not a joke."
Wen Xian said with a dark face: "Then why are you bringing this up at this moment?"
Huangfu said sternly: "Your Majesty, aren't you curious as to who took away the 'Returning Bell'?"
Wen Xian was extremely angry and laughed back: "It seems that uncle really wants me to hold you accountable for your incompetence in doing things?"
Huangfu said sternly: "It's the orphan Su Yu."
Wenxian was stunned.
Of course, there was only one orphan left by Su Yu, and that was Su Huaiying, the subjugated princess who fled to the Yang Kingdom.
She entered Yang Country just a few days ago, but soon lost track of her.
The relationship between Yang Guo and Zhou Guo was not good, and was even a bit tense. Although there was a chance that the elixir of immortality might be in her possession, she was not sure after all, so naturally she would not bother to help Zhou Guo catch someone, so she didn't take care of it anymore.
In Wenxian's view, Ji Chengtian was undoubtedly a clown.
The elixir of immortality was not found, so he became angry and arrested people, but they even let them go.
Furthermore, Mrs. Liang Guo and Chen Kuang, who caused a stir, are also dead. This Su Huaiying is just a three or four-year-old baby with no cultivation level. How much trouble can he cause?
Unexpectedly, when she heard the news about Su Huaiying again, it was she who got the "retrospective bell"!
This is not simple, it can even be said to be a bit bizarre!
Not to mention that the secret realm of Yong'an River is extremely dangerous. It is impossible for the Grandmaster sent by Shennong Division to let an ordinary person like Su Huaiying succeed.
There must be other hidden secrets.
Wen Xian looked serious and asked in a deep voice: "Uncle, please elaborate."
Huangfu Yan said: "Su Huaiying is accompanied by Zhang Zhizhou, the eldest disciple of Freedom Mountain, but...according to the news reported by our disciples, Zhang Zhizhou is actually headed by Su Huaiying and considers himself a counselor."
Wen Xian felt it was extremely ridiculous and frowned: "Su Huaiying is full of wisdom... He's almost five years old, right? Although this Zhizhou is crazy, it's not like this, right?"
He guessed: "Is it possible... that the little princess of Liang Kingdom is a person of Su Hui?"
Huangfu Yan said noncommittally: "Maybe, but that's not important."
"The important thing is that Su Huaiying appeared outside Zangfeng Prefecture."
Zangfengzhou... Wenxian suddenly raised his head and understood the meaning:
"Her appearance means that... the elixir of longevity is not in her possession."
Wenxian stood up, pacing back and forth with his bloated body, and said: "But she is the only one who may have the elixir of longevity after entering the Yang Kingdom."
"Who else could it be?"
Huangfu Yan whispered: "I have a guess..."
He was suddenly startled as he spoke, and then smiled: "Your Majesty...it seems that my guess is right, and the turning point has come."
…
Chen Kuang noticed something was wrong with the elder "Xiao Yu" from the moment he entered the door.
The other Monster Race elders all look normal.
But only "Xiaoyu", in Chen Kuang's eyes, is a person split in two.
Half of him looked normal, but the other side was "covered" by a slightly misplaced shadow.
It's like being parasitized by this phantom.
The appearance of this phantom is none other than Sizheng and Huangfu Yan of the Shennong Division!
Naturally, Chen Kuang didn't know Huangfu Yan, but Wang Yangbo knew him, and so did Han Shan and Tong Shi.
Through their evil karma illusion, Chen Kuang even had a detailed understanding of the power structure of Shennongsi and the Wangfu.
Naturally, he was deeply impressed by this Shennong Si Zheng whom he had never met before.
He is good at Yanshu and has a relatively moderate personality. His attitude towards Monster Race is not very extreme, and he turns a blind eye to the cooperation between the people below and Monster Race.
And this Sizheng's strength is the upper three grades of Xuanxuan realm.
——At this time, Chen Kuang could truly feel that the strength of the Liang Kingdom was indeed weak. The only combat power that could be used was Huo Hengxuan, the Grandmaster, and the top leaders of the Zhou and Yang countries were all upper three grades. Base.
However, most of the time, he is shown in front of people as a puppet, and few people have seen his true face.
And this is also the horror of him.
After all, no one knows whether the person next to them is a puppet.
And now, Chen Kuang has used his actual actions to prove how terrifying this Sizheng's Yanshu is.
"Xiao Yu" who was killed by him had revealed half of his true identity when he died.
"Xiaoyu" appeared to be a weak scholar with fair skin and feminine appearance. At the moment of death, brilliant blue-green feathers like eyes appeared on his face, and his hands turned into sharp claws.
The body of this "drizzle" turned out to be a peacock.
But the process of manifesting the demon body was forcibly terminated, because Huangfu Yan's consciousness directly took over the puppet's body.
Everyone was shocked when they saw this situation. The elder of the Mountain and Sea Alliance, whose status was second only to the alliance leader, turned out to be a puppet of Shen Nong Si Sizheng!
Only "Kui" looked solemn, but not too surprised.
Chen Kuang looked at "Xiaoyu"... No, it should be said that it was Huangfu Yan.
"Does it seem difficult?"
He spread his hands and said, "Our leader, didn't you expect this?"
Several other elders couldn't help but complain, whoever is "we" like you is too good at climbing along the lines.
Just now, you were just a strange monster trying to cooperate with the Mountain and Sea Alliance. Now you are talking as if he is a monster from the Mountain and Sea Alliance.
But at this moment, it was naturally impossible for them to refute him.
After all, there is one of their biggest enemies right in front of them.
Unexpectedly, before Huangfu Yan could answer Chen Kuang's words, Kui shook his head first and said:
"I have been observing for a long time, checking the origin and behavior of 'Xiaoyu', and comparing it with the actions of Shennong Division. It took ten years to confirm the identity of his mole."
"And you, just by meeting him, confirmed that 'Xiao Yu' is Huangfu Yan's puppet."
"Kui" had a solemn and serious expression on his childish face:
"It's hard, it's incredible."
"Um..." Chen Kuang originally wanted to use "Kui" to cover up his abilities and compliment the leader of the alliance.
Who knows if the leader of the alliance will give you face in such a way...
Fortunately, Huangfu Yan had no intention of getting too entangled in this matter.
"Xiaoyu"'s body took two steps forward and twisted its neck back, but the wounds on its body did not heal. The death aura spread rapidly... It seemed that it could not last long.
Huangfu looked at Chen Kuang seriously, narrowed his eyes and said, "It is indeed you."
He sighed: "That old guy Mu Zhao is really being played around by you."
Chen Kuang said with a half-smile: "Is Si Zheng going to fight for Martial Saint?"
Huangfu said sternly: "Shennongsi and Martial Saint Pavilion are not the same people."
Chen Kuang said: "So... where is the Mountain and Sea Alliance?"
Huangfu Yan was noncommittal: "There are many like Wang Yangbo. In the final analysis, what the Shennong Division wants now is just the word 'status'. Sometimes it is very simple to turn a blind eye."
He sighed: "It's just that the purpose of our Shennong Division has been around for thousands of years. If you want to change it, it won't happen overnight."
Chen Kuang said: "It seems that Si Zheng is indeed willing to cooperate."
Huangfu Yan: "We are facing a formidable enemy. Mr. Chen must be very aware that we are in the same situation now."
Huangfu Yan knew clearly that since the puppet he had awakened was the elder of the Mountain and Sea Alliance, he would never be able to pass the Mountain and Sea Alliance if he wanted to communicate with the people from the Shennong Division.
Now he must suppress the situation outside Zangfeng Prefecture, so if he wants to compete with Wen Pei in Zangfeng Prefecture, it is better to use the power within.
Chen Kuang turned to look at the other people in the secret room: "What do you think?"
Everyone looked at "Kui" in silence.
"Kui" looked at Huangfu Yan and said: "The conflict between Shennong Division and Monster Race is irreconcilable."
It is almost impossible to make Shennongsi give up its purpose.
Huangfu Yan smiled and said: "Not with Monster Race, not with Mountain and Sea?"
"Kui": "..."
His pupils tightened, and he instantly understood Huangfu Yan's thoughts.
Yes, there are also contradictions within Monster Race.
Although the Mountain and Sea Alliance is hostile to others, it is already a relatively neutral and moderate force among them, and it is absolutely impossible for the forces to coexist completely peacefully.
Because they are trying to protect those weak monsters who just want to live, they are enemies of people.
But there are also some monsters that have no purpose at all and carry out cruel killings out of pure malice towards humans.
Huangfu Yan's meaning was very clear. Shennongsi had to kill the monsters, but it didn't have to kill the monsters from the Mountain and Sea Alliance.
This is indeed in line with the interests and demands of the Mountain and Sea Alliance.
But again, this is also a conspiracy trap.
If the monsters of the Mountain and Sea Alliance are not targeted by Shen Nongsi, other Monster Races will definitely have doubts in their hearts, and then the Mountain and Sea Alliance will be the target of public criticism.
However, the Mountain and Sea Alliance is now somewhat incapable of succeeding.
Because most of the Monster Race just want to live peacefully and do not want to participate in the struggle, the Mountain and Sea Alliance has always been in a weak position.
There are indeed many people like Wu Man who have chosen to cooperate with Shennongsi.
Without this opportunity, maybe... the Mountain and Sea Alliance wouldn't be able to sustain it for long.
"Kui" pondered for a long time, then raised his head and said, "Okay."
Huangfu Yan and "Kui" immediately made a soul contract and set several rules, which was regarded as a short-term consensus.
"Okay... now that your problem is solved, let's solve my problem."
Chen Kuang stroked his palm and said.
Everyone's eyes were focused on him again.
Huangfu Yan crossed him and landed on Mo Xu, who looked stupid. He thought for a moment: "Is this... the person chosen by Martial Saint?"
Chen Kuang said: "Exactly."
"We alone will not be able to compete with King Jingnan's army."
Huangfu Yan raised his eyebrows: "So... you want to unite with the Martial Saint Pavilion?"
The man in front of him and Martial Saint Pavilion were truly mortal enemies... He had some suspicions about Chen Kuang's plan.
But so what? As he said, Shennongsi and Martial Saint are not the same people.
Chen Kuang smiled and said, "Then please ask Si Zheng to tell the truth."
What he wants is for Shennongsi to directly testify to prove Mo Xu's identity as "Martial Saint".
Mo Xu understood this time, he was shocked, and whispered quickly: "I can't... How could I deceive the masters of Martial Saint Pavilion, I, I don't know what to do..."
Chen Kuang just smiled and said meaningfully: "You will know."
“When you stand in front of those people, you are a Martial Saint.”
…
There are also people from the Martial Saint Pavilion in Yang Kingdom.
Among them, the one in Zangfeng Prefecture is Cang Xing, nicknamed "Treading Blood to Seek Plum Blossoms".
He himself has the realm of Grandmaster, and the Mei Sect he established is also a powerful force, especially Cang Xing is a physical practitioner, and so are his disciples.
Meizong is located between a mountain range on the edge of Zangfeng Prefecture.
Cang Xing stood on the mountain peak behind Mei Zong, looking at Zangfeng Prefecture being swept away by the army led by Wen Pei.
Half of the city in Zangfengzhou was filled with thick smoke and blazing fire.
When the army passes by, those who don't follow will be killed.
Cang Xing does not intend to participate in the internal political struggle of Yang Kingdom, not to mention Saint's intervention. He has ordered the mountain to be closed and will not be reopened until this matter is over.
Whoever leads the Yang Kingdom has nothing to do with their Mei Zong, so why bother themselves.
It's just that Cang Xing's idea is destined to fail today.
"What... Martial Saint is here in person?!"
Cang Xing's pupils tightened and he looked at the disciple who hurriedly came to report.
The disciple was also sweating profusely and said, "Yes! He's right outside the mountain gate now!"
He shook his head again: "No, no, it's not a personal visit, it's a mysterious spell!"
Cang Xing grabbed the disciple and shouted: "Are you sure you are serious?!"
Nowadays, the spiritual energy of the entire Zangfeng State has been banned. Although he is the Grandmaster, his spiritual consciousness is blocked and cannot be explored at all.
The disciple nodded repeatedly and said, "It was Shennong Sisi who controlled the puppet and accompanied him here in person! Moreover, that person is the boy who had been subdued once before!"
"Didn't I see that man's face once before when I accompanied you to the Martial Saint Pavilion? It can't be fake!"
When Cang Xing heard this, he immediately took a breath.
"Shen Nong Si is accompanying you?"
The disciple nodded: "Yes, the puppet probably died not long ago, and its neck is still crooked. In the current situation in Zangfeng Province, who else can survive in this situation?"
"It can only be that Shen Nong Si Sizheng."
When Cang Xing heard that this was indeed the truth, he quickly said: "Quickly lead the way!"
The two of them ran all the way and soon arrived at the mountain gate.
Cang Xing recognized it at a glance. The person standing at the front was indeed Mo Xu, who had been selected by Wen Hongsheng to become the vessel for the gods.
He glanced and seemed to see the shadow of Martial Saint.
But the next moment, he frowned, because the young man's expression, although he raised his chest and raised his head... seemed a little nervous?
The corpse of "Xiaoyu" standing next to him indeed looked like his neck was broken, which further weakened his suspicion.
When the spiritual energy disappears, this kind of Divine Ability... can only be the ultimate form of Yanshu.
But then, the appearance of another person next to him made his pupils shrink, and he was instantly horrified.
"Chen Kuang?!"
Cang Xing almost felt as if he had seen a ghost.
Pretty much the same, actually.
The arrest warrants for Chen Kuang within the Martial Saint Pavilion have been cancelled. The arrest warrants issued by Martial Saint himself were confirmed to be dead by Martial Saint himself.
But now, Chen Kuang, who was supposed to be a dead person, suddenly came to life? !
Chen Kuang was not surprised at all. Instead, he frowned and said:
"Cang Xing, why don't you worship Lord Martial Saint when you see him?"
"This..." Cang Xing suddenly hesitated, and his clenched fists also hesitated. What's going on?
Chen Kuang sighed: "Stupid, since you saw me here and haven't died yet, don't you still understand what Lord Martial Saint means?"
He shook his head and said, "I am from the Martial Saint Pavilion!"
Chen Kuang's attitude was so calm that Cang Xing was stunned and his brain started to work rapidly.
Lord Martial Saint didn’t kill Chen Kuang… It’s definitely not because he didn’t kill him, so it must have been intentional.
In other words, Lord Martial Saint deliberately spared Chen Kuang's life.
Then, the previous wanted orders should all be staged!
There is only one purpose that allows Lord Martial Saint to do this, and that is... the elixir of longevity!
Yes, that's it, Cang Xing's mind suddenly opened up.
If he thought correctly, Lord Martial Saint just wanted to get the elixir of longevity quietly before Ji Chengtian, so he pursued him all the way.
And Chen Kuang is actually a pawn of Lord Martial Saint!
He is responsible for taking the elixir of life out of the palace and putting on a good show with Lord Martial Saint.
This can completely explain Chen Kuang's amazing performance along the way.
More importantly, Master Martial Saint arrived again, and it was at the same time as Yang Guo Saint took action!
Cang Xing felt his heart pounding, as if he saw a big chess game unfolding before his eyes.
He followed Martial Saint precisely because of his unparalleled domineering power.
And now, is he finally going to become a pawn in the hands of Martial Saint and participate in the beginning of Martial Saint's dominance?
Cang Xing was afraid that he would express his position too late and miss the opportunity, so he immediately lifted the hem of his robe, gritted his teeth and knelt down:
"Disciple Cang Xing, I have met Master Martial Saint! Disciple is late, please forgive me Master Martial Saint!"
Chen Kuang murmured in his heart... He was even easier to fool than expected. He was indeed a fanatical admirer of Martial Saint.
And Mo Xu was completely dumbfounded.
He had heard of Cang Xing, the leader of the Mei Sect, before him.
This is a Grandmaster!
A Grandmaster, right in front of him, literally knelt down in front of him!
With just a few words from Chen Kuang, the other party seriously regarded him as a Martial Saint!
Mo Xu felt that nothing in the world could be more ridiculous than this, and his impression of the Martial Saint Pavilion and these so-called masters collapsed...
It turns out that these people are just a bunch of fools!
A strange emotion suddenly arose in Mo Xu's heart, not excitement, but a strange calmness.
He looked down at the kneeling Cang Xing, took a deep breath, and said:
“Rise up, for he who does not know is not guilty.”
And somewhere he didn't notice, between the broken meridians on his body, those flickering lights... were gradually reconnecting with each other.
