The Way of the Immortal Master

Although Shang Jianqing was a little arrogant, he was not the kind of fool who didn't understand the truth.

He couldn't even fight Meng Zhang's disciple Niu Dawei, let alone fight Meng Zhang.

His brother Ouyang Huajin is not as good as him. Although relying on the master's preference, there may be some hidden cards, but compared with him, there is no essential difference in combat power. Everyone is a monk of the same level. .

Shang Jianqing sowed discord in front of Ouyang Huajin, and said many bad things about Meng Zhang, hoping that Ouyang Huajin would play tricks, come up with some dirty tricks, and cause Meng Zhang some trouble.

He never thought that Ouyang Huajin would go to fight Meng Zhang and fight Meng Zhang head-on.

With Ouyang Huajin's strength, he is absolutely no match for Meng Zhang.

After knowing that Ouyang Huajin had made a war statement to Meng Zhang, Shang Jianqing tried to stop it, but in vain.

Even his master Ouyang Jian was very supportive of this competition.

Not only did he not interfere with Ouyang Huajin's choice, but he also took the initiative to show up to cheer for Ouyang Huajin.

Under such circumstances, Shang Jianqing didn't dare to say anything more.

But in his heart, he felt a little strange.

Ouyang Jian is the oldest and most powerful sword cultivator in the Dali Dynasty. Although he has always relied on his elders to sell his elders and is arrogant, he is not the kind of person who is so arrogant and stupid.

As long as he has a little understanding of Meng Zhang's strength, he should know that Ouyang Huajin will not be Meng Zhang's opponent.

Perhaps, Ouyang Jian wanted to take this opportunity to exercise Ouyang Huajin. Shang Jianqing could only guess in his heart.

But he never expected that Meng Zhang would kill Ouyang Huajin on the spot during the public competition.

Although Meng Zhang spared Ouyang Huajin's primordial spirit, he did not touch Ouyang Huajin's relics.

However, with Ouyang Jian's personality, he should still be extremely furious and explode on the spot.

But Shang Jianqing had followed Ouyang Jian for many years. Based on his understanding of his master, Ouyang Jian did not hide his anger when Ouyang Hua Jin died like others guessed. Instead, he was not angry, but accepted all of this calmly and calmly.

This made Shang Jianqing feel very strange and even a little chilled.

At first, Shang Jianqing was worried that Ouyang Jian would blame himself for Ouyang Huajin's death.

But as time passed, Shang Jianqing discovered that Ouyang Jian really didn't seem to care much about the death of this closed disciple.

As far as Shang Jianqing knew, Ouyang Jian didn't have any plans or intentions to take revenge on Meng Zhang, let alone vent his anger on him.

With Ouyang Jian's character, it is impossible to suddenly become magnanimous, let alone shrink back because of Han Yao.

Thinking of Ouyang Huajin's unexpected death in battle, Shang Jianqing had a very bad idea in his mind.

Of course, he was very smart to hide these thoughts deep in his heart, and he didn't dare to show them at all.

Although he is Ouyang Jian's disciple, Ouyang Jian doesn't really value him very much.

The reason why he was accepted as an apprentice at the beginning was largely because of the face of the merchant.

Merchants have a high status in the Datong Business Alliance and have a lot of power.

In order to curry favor with such a powerful person as Ouyang Jian, he sent gifts to his house a lot.

But if Shang Jianqing really ruined Ouyang Jian's affairs, Ouyang Jian wanted to deal with him, and the merchant couldn't keep him.

Shang Jianqing vaguely discovered what Ouyang Jian was planning, but he could only pretend not to know.

When Meng Zhang and Ouyang Huajin fought that day, although Meng Zhang killed the opponent unexpectedly, almost all the bystanders didn't think much about it.

They will only think that Meng Zhang is too powerful, Ouyang Huajin is not worthy of his name, and he became famous thanks to the strength of his teacher.

As a victor, Meng Zhang has many doubts in his heart, but he can't find the way to solve them, so he can only hide them in his heart.

Meng Zhang's killing of Ouyang Huajin brought a lot of disadvantages, but it was not without advantages.

As the news spread slowly, it actually reached Emperor Bawu.

Originally, Meng Zhang handed in the memorial, if he was unlucky, even if he ascended for a year or so, he might not get a reply from Emperor Ba Wu. Moreover, Ba Wudi may not have that spare time to meet him.

But Emperor Bawu, who lives in the deep palace, after hearing about this matter, casually asked the people around him a few words, and he knew everything related to Meng Zhang.

Therefore, Emperor Bawu read Meng Zhang's memorial in advance, and then suddenly became interested in him, and ordered him to be summoned.

When the father-in-law who passed the decree came to the five punishment guards' garrison and brought the oral order from Emperor Bawu to summon him, Meng Zhang was a little surprised.

In any case, Emperor Bawu's summons cannot be refused or neglected.

Meng Zhang was alone, and followed the father-in-law who passed the decree to the imperial city.

Enter the city gate, pass through the vast outer city area, and pass through another city gate before entering the inner city.

There are many magnificent palaces built in the inner city, which are the residences of the main members of the royal family including Emperor Ba Wu.

In recent years, Emperor Bawu spent most of his time in the inner palace, rarely going outside the palace.

He dispensed with various ceremonial activities including the Great Court Meeting.

Most of the government affairs in the court were handed over to the important ministers including Zai Zhi.

Except for occasional meetings with ministers, he rarely sees outsiders.

He took the initiative to order Meng Zhang to be summoned this time, which was the first time in recent years that he had received outsiders other than the important ministers of the court.

Meng Zhang didn't even know why Emperor Ba Wu suddenly became interested in him.

According to the usual practice, newly recruited cultivators like him who come to report are usually received by a certain minister. It is really a very rare thing to be personally received by Emperor Bawu.

The only major thing he did recently was to kill Ouyang Huajin. But this kind of big event in the eyes of others, in the eyes of Emperor Ba Wu, it should be just a child's play.

Meng Zhang was thinking about his own affairs, and didn't pay much attention to these magnificent palaces.

He only glanced briefly, but he was still quite shocked.

With poor speech, he couldn't find too many words to describe the majestic palace in front of him.

It is estimated that only in this kind of comprehension world can one rely on the supernatural powers of the comprehension practitioners to overcome various engineering problems and create such incredible buildings.

Meng Zhang once went to the Heavenly Palace. However, due to the relationship between the external environment and geographical location, Tiangong cannot do whatever it wants.

The Tiangong, located above the nine heavens, is essentially a fortress to protect the Junchen Realm.

Moreover, the great powers in charge of Tiangong may not like palaces that are too grand.

In contrast, the Dali Dynasty Palace located in the Junchen Realm is probably the most magnificent palace complex in the world.

As far as Meng Zhang knew, there was no such a powerful dynasty in the Middle-earth Continent, where the cultivation civilization was highly developed.

There, the dynasties in the world are all vassals of those large cultivation sects.
