In the long years, there were several nomadic and hunting tribes in the Beijiang Territory. Their people were tough and they coveted the beautiful water and grass of the empire. They formed a royal family and trained troops to invade the territory of the Beijiang Territory many times.
Therefore, the Beijiang Territory was known as the place of war and the flames of war never stopped.
Xianlin, the current Duke of the Beijiang Territory, killed enemies at the age of ten. He destroyed the "Liuxiong" tribe in the Northeast Misty Forest, destroyed the six nations in the Northwest Icefield, slaughtered more than seventy cities, crossed the Arctic Ocean, went straight to the enemy's den and killed thirty cities of the Snowdance Empire. He fought all his life and shocked an entire dynasty. He was even more famous than Duke Jinlong of the Nanhe Territory. He was as strong as a dragon, arrogant and domineering. He was never weaker than others.
But at this moment, when he talked about Jiang Tian, he showed a deep fear and his tone was full of helplessness.
"Ah!"
The others were all silent and didn't say a word.
When Bai Zhanyun's Dantian was injured, it could be said that the Bai family was enraged and they wanted to tear Jiang Tian into pieces. A rogue cultivator from outside the river, a servant of the Lin Mansion, who was he? How dare a lowly person attack the Young Lord?
But after Jiang Tian displayed his terrifying strength, everyone gave up on the idea.
He could even kill the ancient Divine Beast, the Abyss Demon Dragon.
Even if the Soul Formation Cultivators of the Bai family worked together, how could they be Jiang Tian's match?
Although the empire was particular about order and there were royal families, dukes, officials and generals, there was an order based on hierarchy. But after all, the empire was founded on martial arts. It paid attention to strength and the strong were recruited and used, giving merits and official positions.
Powerful strength could break the order of seniority and allow mortals to rise up.
Jiang Tian was now the Grand Preceptor, second only to one person and above thousands of people. He was equal to the Emperor. According to the rules, even the Crown Prince and the other juniors of the royal family had to greet him as a disciple. Even dukes and dukes had to greet him as if he was the Emperor.
When Bai Zhanyun heard this, his body trembled. With a face full of shame, he said, "Father, your son was rash back then."
After he repaired his Dantian, he was once filled with lofty aspirations. He thought that one day, he would be able to catch up and suppress Jiang Tian. He even wanted to kill Jiang Tian for revenge.
After all, Jiang Tian was a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator, and he would soon reach the peak of the Nascent Soul Realm.
"The effect of this pill is too good!"
Later on, when he learned that the Sky-Mending Pill he had consumed was actually created by the Hall of Ancient Medicine using Jiang Tian's pill formula, he immediately became dispirited, and his fighting spirit plummeted.
"It's actually Jiang Siqing's pill formula!"
At that time, Bai Zhanyun's mood could be described as hopeless!
The effects of this pill were so heaven-defying that the Ancient Medicine Hall would probably worship him as if he were a celestial being from the nine heavens.
Not to mention that it was difficult for him to kill Chen Xi, even if he did, would the Ancient Medicine Hall let the matter rest?
Cutting off someone's path to wealth was like killing their parents.
The secular world was like that. Although the secluded sects seemed to be high and mighty, they were not exempt from the secular world.
Cultivation relied on materials, resources, and spiritual objects of heaven and earth. Otherwise, why would the secluded sects set up outer sects to run businesses and plunder wealth? Why were most of the sect missions about killing monsters, seizing treasures, exploring, and searching for items?
The Hall of Ancient Medicine would definitely take revenge on him. Not to mention that he was only a Marquis, even the Crown Prince and the Emperor would not be able to stop them!
After hearing about Jiang Tian's earth-shattering battle at the Hundred Flowers Peak, Bai Zhanyun was scared out of his wits. He was shrouded in fear and could not eat or sleep well. He was awakened by nightmares several times.
It felt as if he had thought that the other party was a wild dog on the side of the road that had casually kicked him. However, when he took a closer look, he realized that the other party was actually an evil dragon that could devour the heavens and the earth. He barely managed to escape. Who would have thought that that thing would transform into a primordial beast? It was simply terrifying.
At that moment, two streaks of light, one black and one gray, flashed across the sky and appeared above the Beijiang Duke Residence.
The streaks of light suddenly landed and turned into a fat middle-aged cultivator and a sly-looking black-faced youth.
Several cultivators who were on guard around the residence hurriedly flew into the sky and flew over. They were fully armed and filled with murderous intent. They questioned coldly, "Who dares to barge into the Beijiang Duke Residence's restricted area? Leave quickly, or you will be killed without mercy! "
"I am Guo Chuandong, the steward of the Grand Tutor's residence!"
Guo Chuandong's fat face did not change. He pointed at the humanoid purple-gold true dragon beside him and said, "This is the Grand Tutor's disciple, the special envoy, Jiang Dahei!"
"Please forgive us for our offense!"
When the guards heard that, their expressions changed drastically. They landed one after another and knelt on the ground.
Bai Xianlin's face was filled with joy. He tidied his clothes and led the important people of his family to quickly welcome them. He cupped his fists intimately and said with a smile, "Haha, so it is Brother Jiang and Brother Jiang who have graced my humble abode with your presence. Please come in quickly. Your presence brings light to my humble abode and brings light to my family's lintel! "
"Duke, you are too polite!"
Guo Chuandong was so excited that the corners of his mouth twitched slightly. The fat all over his body shook!
Too good.
This is simply too good to be true!
It was as if he had taken a bunch of elixirs in a row. His whole body was light as if he was about to ascend.
Who is he?
So he is just a rogue cultivator from outside the river, an out-and-out pariah. When he first came to the mainland, he was worried that he would not even be able to get a household registration and find a place to stay. He would be stranded outside the city and suffer from demon beasts, demonic energy, and evil spirits!
He did not expect that following Jiang Tian, he could actually make an important person of the empire, a dignified Duke, call him brother.
"Come, brothers. Since you are here, you can't leave so easily. Go in and drink a cup of wine. Find a few beautiful women and dance. You have all worked hard to quell the Purple Marquis's rebellion. We three brothers will enjoy ourselves! "
Bai Xianlin had the air of an ambitious and ruthless person. He could sweep across the world and slaughter tens of thousands of soldiers with his sword. He could also be humble and get closer to people, calling them brothers.
"Beauties, those are for eating! What's the point of dancing? "
Dahei had a look of disinterest.
He wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth and said, "Let's have a batch of elixirs!"
"How can mere elixirs be worthy of my brother Dahei's noble status? At least a heavenly elixir, and at least three batches! Brother Dahei, I can tell at a glance that you are a brave person who is good at fighting, so your appetite is naturally big. As the saying goes, the greater the ability, the greater the appetite! "
Bai Xianlin was very generous as soon as he made a move. He was very generous and had spent a lot of money.
The elders of the Bai family next to him all showed an extremely pained expression.
One had to know that the so-called elixirs were for Golden Core cultivators. As for heavenly elixirs, they were for Nascent Soul cultivators. They were extremely rare and precious.
Three batches of heavenly elixirs were simply priceless. The annual harvest of a marquis's fief and city might not even be this much! Even if the Duke of Beijiang's harvest was better, it would still take several months of income.
"The greater the ability, the greater the appetite? Haha! Interesting, and very correct. "
Dahei only felt that it was very pleasant to hear. He patted Bai Xianlin's shoulder and said with a smile,
"My master once said that the Duke of Beijiang has not paid tribute for a hundred years and is stingy and cunning. I don't think so. You are very generous, at least much more generous than my master. He always asks me to lose weight! "
"My master once said that you have the appearance of an emperor, and that you are ambitious. You think highly of yourself and have great ambitions. You have a disloyal heart. I don't think that is the case. You are amiable and friendly. How could you have a disloyal heart?"
Next to him, Guo Chuandong's forehead was sweating and his body was tense.
"Brother Dahei, can you be more careful with your words!"
Just these few words could arouse Bai Xianlin's rebellious heart.
Who knows, he might start a rebellion right away!
"Haha, Lord State Preceptor, did you really say that about me?"
The smile on Bai Xianlin's face gradually stiffened and his face became gloomy.
