The Grand Void – Becoming a Dragon

The blessed land of the heavens has a vast territory.

The five sects stand side by side, and the land under the jurisdiction of each sect is extremely vast.

Under the jurisdiction of the five sects are the five realms of the Great Chu Dynasty.

Many years ago, because of the vast territory of the five great territories, and in the mortal world, there were too many mundane affairs and disordered order, and the five great immortal sects were after all high-ranking sects who had no time to manage the chaotic world... Therefore, With the predecessor of the Great Chu Dynasty.

At that time, the five great immortal sects jointly recommended the outer sect, which was composed of people from various sects, to rule the mortal world in the Heavenly Imperial Blessed Land, and rule over hundreds of millions of sentient beings.

From then on, the household registration was made, the roster was established, the population was coordinated, and the cultivation seedlings with excellent roots in the world were collected.

In addition, in the territory of Tianyu Fudi, he collected all kinds of natural materials and earth treasures and all kinds of strange objects for the five major sects, named them and compiled them into a catalog, and paid tribute to the five major sects, which became the source of the five sects' cultivation expenses.

However, it is rumored that hundreds of years ago, there were actually six major sects who jointly recommended a branch to coordinate the Tianyu Fudi.

But 400 years ago, for some unknown reason, Tianyu Fudi was in turmoil, the common people went to war, the people were displaced, and the peaceful and prosperous times turned into chaotic ones.

After the negotiation of the remaining five sects, the outer lineage jointly recommended by these five sects was allowed to establish a country named Great Chu!

The Great Chu Dynasty quelled the war and regained peace, to this day!

Zhuang Ming vaguely heard from Brother Jiu that Da Chu was able to take advantage of the situation to establish a country, and the truth inside is intricate.

But the root cause is actually related to his mentor Bai Shengjun's second sword attack on Dongzhou.

——

"No wealth is not enough to support Taoism. I am attached to the Dongsheng Dynasty. Taking advantage of the peace and prosperity and order rules of the Dongsheng Dynasty, I established the Zhuang's Commercial Bank, collected money, recruited manpower, and searched for all kinds of rare treasures. Jiaolong."

"However, the five great immortal sects jointly recommended a lineage to form the Great Chu Dynasty, ruled the blessed land of heaven and earth, recruited outstanding roots and seedlings, and collected all kinds of treasures."

"Actually, it is somewhat similar to my thoughts back then, but in comparison, I am only attached to the dynasty, while the five immortal sects are above the dynasty."

"Eastern Yuan Realm of the Great Chu Dynasty, this is one of the five sects, the land under the jurisdiction of Tai Yuanzong, I wonder if the old Taoist has returned?"

Thinking like this, Zhuang Ming glanced at the crowd outside the carriage.

This place is prosperous, and it is very different from the Dongsheng Dynasty. Its clothing, speech accent, and etiquette customs are all different.

He swept his eyes away, then looked back, but didn't speak.

Just now, Yue Ting had roughly mentioned the ins and outs of the future, and now everyone was thinking about it.

"Old Fu was attacked, do you suspect there is an inner ghost?" Lu He pondered with a solemn expression.

"There must be an inner ghost, if not, the whereabouts will not be revealed." Yue Ting said in a deep voice.

"The ghost you are referring to is..."

Lu He was silent for a while.

There was a moment of silence in the carriage.

All eyes were on the young master.

However, Zhuang Ming didn't seem to notice, his expression remained the same.

"Zheng Yuanshan or Yuan Tao? Or... both of them?"

"It's not them, it's the stewards of our side, Jiang, and Yong, because..." Yue Ting paused, and said in a low voice: "The two of them don't know the route of Fu Lao's trip at all."

"What do you mean?" Bai Qing's complexion changed slightly.

"The two people's self-reliance has been clearly revealed at the beginning of this year, and Fu Lao can't control it." Yue Ting said seriously.

"this……"

Lu He looked a little heavy, while Bai Qing and Liu He also looked complicated.

The young master arrived, but Zheng Yuanshan and Yuan Tao did not come to greet him, they thought that the overseas business was busy and they had no time to come.

Now it seems... is it because they already have the heart to stand on their own?

"I asked the son for help, but I didn't inform them."

Yue Ting said slowly: "Young master came here, they didn't know beforehand... However, this time I went to Yingdong Port in person to meet you, and I didn't hide my whereabouts. I don't know."

Zhuang Ming said calmly: "It's okay."

When everyone heard the words, they all became clear.

The power of the flood dragon is as high as that of an immortal.

The master's plan is also deep and unpredictable.

There is nothing to worry about in the three places.

As for these two former companions, if they really insist on going their own way, they can only set up a monument for them out of the old friendship.

"I hope...you can change your mind."

Lu He sighed.

Those who were sent overseas by the son back then can also be called confidantes, such as Fu Lao, such as Yue Ting.

Back then, Zheng Yuanshan and Yuan Tao were actually close confidants.

Especially Yuan Tao, as a martial artist, has an extremely close relationship with Lu He and the others.

If old friends can change their minds, everyone will be happy.

If you are greedy for profit, deeply rebellious, and determined to rebel, then there is no other way but to erect a monument and burn incense.

Shuang Ling pursed her lips, and said in a low voice: "Heavenly Blessed Land, Great Chu Dynasty...is it so easy to shake people's hearts?"

Yue Ting raised his hand and said solemnly: "People's hearts are changeable, just because of their unsteadiness. I, Yue Ting, have seen this vast world, but I have never had two minds."

Bai Qing laughed, patted him on the head, and said, "My good brother, I won't bully you in the future."

——

"Master, Yue Ting and others are on their way back, this is the news."

"Interviewed five people? Four men and one woman?" The old man stood with his hands behind his back, frowning slightly.

"Yes, but..."

"But how?"

"The one Yue Ting respects the most is the youngest among them, a young man in white."

"What?" The old man became more and more astonished, and said, "Young man?"

"Younger than Yue Ting." The man responded.

"It's strange, he, Yue Ting, would be so respectful to a young man?"

The old man murmured: "Could it be that there are suspicions here? Check it out, what kind of goods are they transporting? Is there someone coming from behind the scenes? Maybe the people behind the scenes are the real decision-makers..."

"Yes, sir."

——

"Four men and one woman, the leader is a young man in white?"

"The other three men followed him like guards, and one of them had a broken arm."

The man in black knelt down on one knee, and replied: "As for the girl, she is quite beautiful, but she is very young. From the careful observation of the eyeliner present, she should be the maid of the young man in white."

The middle-aged man asked: "How about your skills?"

The man in black replied: "One is deep and introverted, with steady footsteps, and his blood is like an oven. He has become a master. The other two are at the peak of the second level of martial arts, but they don't look like masters... As for the girl, she doesn't see martial arts."

"What about the young man in white?"

"Every move has an extraordinary temperament. However, there is no trace of martial arts, just like a rich man."

"One Grandmaster guard, two Martial Arts 2nd level, not a Grandmaster." The middle-aged man pondered: "It seems that the Zhuang's Commercial Bank is not so deep in their local territory..."

"Perhaps in their native land, a grandmaster of the third level of martial arts is too rare." The man in black said.

"That's true. After all, the Great Chu Dynasty was the most prosperous in the vast sea."

The middle-aged man said: "Continue to explore and see what the wind is."

——

"What do adults think?"

"To make Yue Ting respectful shows that this young man has an extraordinary status. He should be the upper-level decision-maker of their Zhuang's firm in the local area."

The sixtieth old man stroked his beard and murmured, "It's just too young..."

According to the news, the young man in white was in his twenties.

A few years ago, wouldn't it be more youthful?

Will Fu Laogui, Zheng Yuanshan, Yuan Tao, Yue Ting and others be assigned by such a young boy to open up a business overseas?

The old man whispered: "Isn't the owner of Zhuang's firm here?"

The gentleman hesitated and said: "Could it be a descendant of the owner of his Zhuang's business?"

The sixtieth old man shook his head and said: "Yue Ting Jieao, if this person has no ability, even if he is the only son of the local owner of Zhuang's business, it is impossible for him to be in awe. Even if the person here is not the real owner of Zhuang's business, he must be in charge of power , and was able to convince the public, the person who made Yue Ting fear..."

After a pause, the sixtieth old man smiled again: "Anyway, since he is the local decision-maker of Zhuang's Firm, we should find out his details. Over the years, Fu Lao Gui has given me many treasures... ...Then Fu Laogui dies, if he succeeds Fu Laogui and really stabilizes the situation, maybe it will be his turn to deal with this old man."

"What do you mean, my lord?"

"Have a banquet."

"Yes, this subordinate will go to make arrangements here."

"etc……"

The sixty-year-old man pondered for a while, and said, "Have a big banquet and invite all parties."

The gentleman was startled.

The sixtieth old man said: "In the territory of Jiangdi, invitations are distributed widely, but Zhuang's firm... sends out two."

The gentleman said in surprise, "Why?"

The sixtieth old man chuckled and said, "One is for the new chief, and the other is for Zheng Yuanshan."

The etiquette and customs of the Great Chu Dynasty were that one family would not have two posts.

"Didn't Zheng Yuanshan want to stand on his own?"

"The old man pushes him!"

"Invite him to Jiangdi to attend the old man's banquet."

"See if he dares to come!"

——

Eastern Yuan Realm, Seventh Mansion, Hedi.

The branch of Zhuang's Commercial Bank.

"Four men and one woman, according to the news, two of them should be Lu He and Liu He, and the other one looks like Bai Qing, but this person has a broken arm..."

"Licking blood at the edge of a knife, breaking an arm is considered an accident." Zheng Yuanshan said slowly: "The young master is in the Dongsheng Dynasty. After all, he is just a businessman. He competes with others for business and involves interests and money. It is unavoidable. Are you still unfamiliar? What's more, the big tree attracts the wind, and the Zhuang's business is too prosperous, maybe the officials of the Dongsheng Dynasty, and even the royal family... will pay attention to it."

"That's true. When I was in the Dongsheng Dynasty, I worked for the young master, or escorted goods, or protected people, or even assassinated secretly. I was also stained with a lot of blood. It was not unusual for me to be injured or even killed by others. .” Yuan Tao said.

"Bai Qing with a broken arm is okay, but those two didn't come." Zheng Yuanshan said.

"You mean, Qian Yang and Yin Ming?"

"That's right." Zheng Yuanshan said, "Young Master, the two great masters are inseparable, but they never came this time... Moreover, the news said that it was a young man in white clothes, but it didn't say that he had disabled legs and was sitting in a wheelchair."

"Isn't the son here?" Yuan Tao asked in astonishment.

"Impossible, you and I were both under the young master's command. How could you and I not know the talented young man under his command? Besides, the news said that Yue Ting was very respectful to that young man. Even Lu He is not convinced, and only the young master can show respect."

Zheng Yuanshan said: "Lu He and others are the guards, and the girl looks like the little Shuangling back then, so it must be the young master... Maybe he needs to meet a famous doctor, and his legs have recovered."

Yuan Tao asked: "Then what do you mean?"

Zheng Yuanshan closed his eyes slightly, before opening his mouth for a long while, and said: "I originally thought to wait and see how the young master dealt with the situation in the three places, but after thinking about it for half an hour before, I realized something was wrong..."

"How wrong?"

"Young master's means may not be able to stabilize the situation in Fang, Jiang, and Yong. If we want to watch a show, we may just wait to die."

"Do you think so?" Yuan Tao hesitated.

"While you have just arrived here, you are not yet familiar with everything, and you are not yet clear about the situation..."

Zheng Yuanshan said in a deep voice: "Before he overwhelms the situation in the three places, you and I will strike first, disrupt his arrangement, catch him off guard, besieged by various forces in the three places, and put him in danger! Otherwise, once he calms down Come, with his plan, plus Lu He and others..."

He looked at Yuan Tao with a solemn expression.

Yuan Tao said in a low voice: "Yue Ting is the master, and his force is still higher than mine."

Zheng Yuanshan said in a low voice: "Old Fu's business in the three places has a lot of background. If the young master succeeds in taking over the three places, he will take over the three places and wait for him to free up... I'm not sure I can beat him."

Yuan Tao heard the words, knew what they meant, and hesitated a little.

Zheng Yuanshan said slowly: "Either take the blame and plead guilty, or be determined to stand on your own... If it is the former, you and I will hand over the fruits of our years of struggle to Zhuang Ming. If it is the latter, you and I will not be able to care about our old friendship."

Yuan Tao's tone was astringent, and he said, "Is that so?"

Zheng Yuanshan's eyes were fixed, and he said, "Preemptive attack!"
